Chapter 323 Be killed when making out with a monster
After that, He Danggui sneaked into the place where Mammy Li collected lost property, and she saw the plum-inlaid hairpin in the storage compartnt. Then, she took the hairpin away as an exhibit to control Concubine i.
At that ti, Concubine i was a figure of Sun iniang’s group. Although Concubine i did not help a lot, every ti Sun iniang asked each Branch to express their opinions, Concubine i would always follow her will to vote on behalf of Third Branch. She was, though a concubine, so prestigious. Besides, Third Lord Luo Chuanbai and Third Mistress Liang bothered trifles. As long as it was not a matter of money and food, Concubine i would represent Third Branch mostly.
Thus, He Danggui wanted to restrain Concubine i, so that she would be less likely to help Sun iniang, and Sun iniang’s force could be weakened. Wang Fan, who carried on a clandestine love affair with Concubine i, was unfortunately killed by the masked man by sucking his blood. People were shocked by his pale and bloodless face when they found the dead body. While after that, people noticed that he was wearing a suit of fire-fighting fish scale armor that he wore the night before when he put out the fire in the Bitter Bamboo Grove. However, his lower body was only with open shorts, and his privates were still stiff after death.
Looking at the scattered clothes in Yuan Yang Pavilion not far away, and the stains on his clothes, many people wondered Wang Fan might make out with soone before he died. Even so imaginative people thought that Wang Fan t a monster who sucked human blood for a living. The monster turned into a beautiful woman, seduced Wang Fan to make out, sucked away his blood at the crucial mont, and exhibited the corpse here.
Although the imagination was ridiculous, many people believed it was true. Anyway, it was undoubted that Wang Fan made out with soone in the garden in the atrium in the inner yard. Later Madam Luo and Mammy Li also knew it. The woman who had committed adultery with Wang Fan was probably the maid working in the garden. To correct the inner house, Madam Luo and Mammy Li not only canceled the two hundred liang silver of pensions planned to be given to Wang Fan’s family, but also made restrictive conditions for the bodyguards of the outer yard to enter the inner yard. Last ti, Ding Rong’s wife called a group of bodyguards into the hall to kill Biddy Wen, which made Madam Luo so angry. It was because according to the regulation, bodyguards of the outer yard were not allowed to enter the inner yard at night, unless they were approved by her.
People all knew for sure that Wang Fan didn’t do anything good before he died, but no one had ever bothered to trace the woman who was. They might think that even if it was the woman of the inner yard, she couldn’t be found as the matter had beco significant. No one had ever noticed that just in the morning after Wang Fan died, not far from the cri scene, a maid nad Pu Gongying found a woman’s hairpin and handed it over. No one, including Pu Gongying and Mammy Li, connected the two incidents.
Other people were ignorant, but the perpetrator herself must care about it. Therefore, He Danggui took advantage of her mind and anonymously wrote a letter to Concubine i, where the lost hairpin was painted and said that it was found beside Wang Fan’s body, and many people had witnessed it. The condition for secrecy in the letter was that Concubine i should stop being in cahoots with Sun iniang.
After Concubine i received the letter, she lived a secluded life and no longer assisted Sun iniang, which indirectly made He Danggui free from worry. Later, He Danggui secretly delivered letters twice, asking Concubine i to take so action rightly to disgrace Sun iniang a few tis. Even this ti, Sun iniang lost her force, and Concubine i also contributed a little. She sent Ding Rong’s wife, who had always been around Sun iniang, away with an excuse, so that Sun iniang fell into the trap.
Originally, He Danggui intended to ignore Concubine i’s adultery and return her with the hairpin. After all, Third Lord had ignored her for years, so it was natural for her to do sothing immoral. Living in the sa house was hard to survive. He Danggui thought it was none of her business and didn’t want to make trouble for Concubine i. However, this dissolute woman took a fancy to Xiaoyou a year ago. She seduced him secretly a few tis, and even gave Xiaoyou her underwear for fun. Interestingly, Xiaoyou, nearly twenty years old, was still a fool. Not only had he not been seduced by the glamorous Concubine i, but he beca disgusted with her. He took the bellyband to He Danggui to have a look and told her the whole thing.
He Danggui kept the bellyband, and wrote another letter to Concubine i, asking her not to seduce Xiaoyou. In this way, He Danggui got another piece of evidence in her hand, but Concubine i might realize what happened. The person who had been using the hairpin to coerce her to do things was most likely a person from Tao Yao Yard. It might even be He Danggui herself because she had the most trouble with Sun iniang among the family mbers. However, Concubine i couldn’t see anything from He Danggui’s face when they t each other several tis. Her expression showed Concubine i was even unknown to her. Thus, Concubine i was less suspected and only kept so doubt in her mind.
Gradually, no one ntioned Xiaoyou was seduced by Concubine i. In addition to calling Concubine i to help defeat Sun iniang this ti, He Danggui didn’t bother her for a whole year. Probably feeling the threat was gone away, Concubine i was unwilling to be lonely and then began to seduce Luo Ganyi, the adoptive son of First Branch. They t each other in Su i Yard of Third Branch and Mu Jin Ge of First Branch.
He Danggui did not stay much after she t the scene and walked towards the Depositary of Buddhist Texts in South Yard, thinking that how chaotic the family affairs of Third Lord were. His second wife Ms. Liang was so weird. Although she was known as a well-bred lady from a family with declined fortunes, her actions showed it was not like that. As to his concubines, all of them were beautiful but calculating. However, Third Lord was a person who didn’t care about his family. No wonder there were affairs with his family.
Concubine i was unfaithful to him and t her lover in Su i Yard, which was the holy land in the hearts of Third Lord and his son Luo Baiji because Luo Baiji’s mother had lived there during her lifeti. Later Luo Baiqiong lived there for half a year, which had caused an estrangent between Second Branch and Third Branch. But they never expected that Su i Yard, the sacred land in their hearts, had long since beco a place for a pair of paramours. How ridiculous!
He Danggui fixed her hair alongside the ears. Second Cousin Luo Baiji was good to her. Should she tell him about this and let him correct the family? Then Concubine i would die because of her words, which needed to be thought twice. But writing a letter like before, to stop Concubine i from committing adultery, might be inefficient.
After all, last ti, Xiaoyou didn’t know he was seduced by Concubine i, who had to give up out of his indifference. While this ti, Concubine i and Luo Ganyi were both active and made a plan to have trysts. He Danggui couldn’t stare at her for the whole day to help Third Lord protect the innocence of his concubine... Besides, Concubine i was no longer innocent. How long could it be protected? And she would leave Luo’s Mansion soon...
He Danggui shook her head and thought that she was ddleso. Third Lord was also a shrewd businessman. He t his concubines all day long. How couldn’t he notice it at all? He probably thought of the face of Luo’s Family and didn’t ntion it. After all, they were most concerned about their faces.
She could also write another letter to Concubine i, telling her not to choose Su i Yard for trysts, so that she had a sense of panic of being monitored and dared not to act blatantly. The most important thing was that Su i Yard would not be disturbed and Luo Baiji would be happy for that. He was the only one who had not been contaminated in Luo’s Family. He Danggui hoped that his ending would be better than his previous life. Su Xiaoxiao, who was originally arranged to elope with Luo Baiji, had already given birth to a son for ng Xuan, so Luo Baiji wouldn’t run away from ho... How strange. He Danggui suddenly felt her chest was stuffy. Was it because she was too tired...
“Master Peng...” A trembling voice of a young lady ca and she whispered, “Don’t do that! Oh, no...”
He Danggui was so surprised. What was wrong with today? Which House of the planets of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth had gone? Why there were paramours everywhere? Including ng Xuan and her, both of whom pledged to marry secretly, this was the third pair. Master Peng? According to Dou Jiang, there was only Peng Shi in the family. He went to Luo’s Mansion to molest a young lady. What was the matter with his brain? The people in Luo’s Mansion didn’t forget the entanglent between him and Luo Baiqiong. Wasn’t he afraid of being forced to take Luo Baiqiong back to the capital?
With curiosity, following the woman’s low voice, He Danggui gradually found rocks stacked beside the path, and the sound ca behind the rocks. He Danggui stared at the scene in surprise. The rockery was indeed a good place for rendezvous, but the woman’s voice was clearly...
“Master Peng, don’t do this. I dare not! Please let go!” The young lady begged.
“No. I must finish it. You grin and bear it. It just hurts for a mont... Hey, don’t press your hands on my head. You knock my hair accessories crooked!”
This was Peng Shi’s voice. He Danggui frowned. She didn’t expect that he was indifferent on his appearance, but so despicable and shaless in private, making indecent assault and forcing a young lady to make out with him. Appearances were often deceptive! According to the voice, the lady was Chai Yutu, who was sent by Madam Luo’s natal family and lived in Luo’ Mansion for more than half a year.
Miss Chai was softer and gentler than He Danggui in previous life. She suffered wrong in Luo’s Family. Luo Baiqiong liked to bully her the most, probably because Miss Chai was pretty and charming, with the tender style that even He Danggui didn’t have. Miss Chai was sixteen years old, which was the most charming age. As soon as she started studying at Chengxu Academy, she imdiately attracted the attention of a group of satyrs, and the attention even surpassed that of the topic of Liao Qing’er and He Danggui. Childes were stretching out the unruly hands to make friends with her wherever she went. Luo Baiqiong was jealous, so she always made trouble for Miss Chai. Of course, Luo Baiqiong also passed all the anger that couldn’t take it out on He Danggui to Miss Chai.
All in all, He Danggui felt that Chai Yutu’s experience was almost a copy of herself in the previous life. The whole family, including her father and mother, abandoned her. Finally, she had to go to Madam Luo for shelter in Yangzhou City, a totally unfamiliar place for her. She was bullied and looked down upon in Luo’s Mansion. She wanted to complain to Madam Luo, but she couldn’t describe it clearly and people criticized her as a narrow-minded lady.
Now Miss Chai was being bullied by Peng Shi. What should He Danggui do, save her or not?
“Ouch!” Miss Chai scread again. “No! Master Peng! It hurts! Ah!”
He Danggui was shocked. Was she late? What happened behind the rockery?
