After being divorced, the concubine became the first lady

Chapter 40: Dear sisters, come to my house to see the dogtail grass.
Yang Minjing suddenly felt like she was recognized by her elders, the kind of respected and kind elders.

She was born in a scholarly family, and she believed in walking the world with reason. She would do things with reason only if she was reckless.

So she couldn't understand Chu Jinjin. It was nothing for a girl to fight and kill.

However, she now sees the power of taking action.

If it were me in the current situation, it would be useless if I had a mouth all over my body.

Look at the trembling and cowardly Lord of the City Gate.

Yang Minjing understood what should be solved now. She calmed down and said solemnly: "Cousin, have you ever thought about what will happen to the Li family if the trouble continues."

Li Chengmen leader was stunned.

Yang Minjing pointed tactfully at the desperate illegitimate servant.

The outcome of the chess pieces, regardless of victory or defeat, will be used when needed.

What is the person in the palace most afraid of now?
Afraid of losing reputation.

If Chu Jinjin goes to court tomorrow, no matter whether he wins or loses, it will definitely become a hot topic.

Leader Li Cheng had no reason to take action. In fact, as long as something happened to Chu Jinjin, many people would subconsciously think of the imperial concubine.

The best outcome is that Chu Jinjin is convicted of causing wanton trouble, but will be imprisoned for a period of time at most.

As for the imperial concubine, she will most likely attract criticism, which is not what she wants to see.

"Cousin, if I were you, I would never make such a big noise." Yang Minjing couldn't fight, but she analyzed it clearly, "especially sending out a large army, just for a little girl, I don't know how many people are happy about this, I I advise you to think about how to explain it quickly."

Chu Jinjin nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

aweason.

She was aware of this, but not so carefully.

If the imperial concubine really wanted to kill her, there were many ways. The reason why she didn't dare was because she was afraid. Her enemies who were afraid of her would take this opportunity to seize the opportunity.

Only within a limited scope.

Leader Li Chengmen didn't notice that the dagger around his neck had been removed. He remained motionless in the held position.

He is not a fool to get to where he is today.

"Miss Chu San, this is all a misunderstanding. I drank a little too much tonight." After a while, Li Chengmen leader took a deep breath and saluted Chu Jinjin with clasped fists, "I have offended you so much, please forgive me."

Even without those words, he regretted it.

This is a madman who is more ruthless than a bandit. He cannot gamble with the lives of his whole family.

Chu Jinjin replied tacitly: "There are also things wrong with civilian girls. They worry too much about their sister-in-law and act impulsively."

"Yulu, take good care of Miss Chu San." Li Chengmen leader ordered and left almost in a hurry.

The most urgent task was to give an explanation to the city guards who arrived.

Li Yulu was dumbfounded: "Ah."

These words were spoken by three people standing aside. None of the eldest ladies, including her, heard them. Chu Jinjin was trembling with fear when she held her father hostage, but suddenly she became like this.

Chu Jinjin smiled and said: "Miss Li, sisters, let's continue the treasure hunt game."

Li Yulu: "."

Now, do you still want to play games?

The other eldest lady also had this idea and didn't even dare to look at Chu Jinjin.

too frightening.

Even the city gate leaders dared to fight, but who else dared not fight? They were afraid that they would become the next target if they made a mistake, so they all forcibly left and went home to find their respective mothers.

Li Yulu: "."

She was also scared and wanted to leave.

"Sisters, please stay." Chu Jinjin gently held Chu Lanlan's arm and smiled as enthusiastically as if she were entertaining distinguished guests. "Although our Chu family does not have the beautiful pear blossoms of Miss Li's family, the dog's tail flowers have just sprouted and have a unique charm. , if you sisters don’t mind it, how about sharing it some other time?”

All the sisters looked like they had seen a ghost.

Dog tail flower?

Are they flowers? Are they weeds? Not to mention how can there be such a banquet in the world? Why are you going there? It certainly doesn't mean well.

Go to hell!
However, just as they were thinking of finding a suitable excuse to evade, they saw Chu Jinjin's legs suddenly turned sideways. The next moment, her toes were raised to the top of her head, and she quickly kicked the night sky several times, making a whirring sound.

Dear sisters: "."

If someone had to kick someone in the head, it would probably break it.

The sisters' faces were pale, and they secretly exchanged glances, and their words of evasion went back and forth.

If you go, you may get beaten. If you don't go, you will get beaten now.

One of them stood up tremblingly, with a cry in his voice: "Chu, I am extremely honored to be invited by Miss Chu."

Chu Jinjin nodded and smiled very gently: "What do you call sisters?"

The woman really wanted to curse so loudly that she didn't even know who she was for a long time.

She opened her mouth, and the other eldest ladies lined up and stepped forward to salute one by one, as if they were meeting nobles in the palace. They all promised to attend on time.

In the end, only the woman in white and Li Yulu were left.

One of the two was the mastermind tonight, and the other scolded Chu Jinjin twice.

I really don’t have the face to say it.

But if you don't say it, the consequences will probably be serious.

The two looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and said at the same time: "We will go too."

Chu Jinjin smiled and nodded: "Welcome."

There is a reason for this.

Chu Lanlan will inevitably participate in such occasions in the future, and as a merchant girl, there is an unwritten rule that she is responsible for paying for the expenses, such as the jackpot for tonight's treasure hunt.

In other words, if you are not qualified to come, the invitation is a great honor to you.

After tonight, I can't say what will happen to Chu Lanlan, but at least they can get along fairly.

Second, one more enemy is worse than one less. A slap is a last resort. Chu Jinjin wants them to understand the Chu family's and her own position. Friends are treated with warmth and enemies are treated with fists.

the last point.

Let those who want to please the imperial concubine see what the right choice is.

And of course one last thing.

Chu Jinjin took Chu Lanlan's arm and led the way, followed by a group of frightened young ladies who returned to the place where the incident happened.

After a while, the pool turned into a uniform light red color, and it was no longer bright against the moonlight, making it a bit eerie.

Chu Jinjin bent down, lifted a stone in the water for a foot rest with one hand, and took out a well-sealed oil paper bag.

Li Yulu: "."

"The first prize is indeed here." Chu Jinjin laughed, swung the water, and hung the golden flower on Chu Lanlan again.

She doesn't care about money, which doesn't mean she's lavish, like five hundred taels of silver.

As Chu Jinjin analyzed, soon another treasure was found in the cracks of the rockery.

When she saw what was inside, Chu Jinjin was silent for a moment and handed it to Chu Lanlan: "Send it to you."

Prizes are marked in red.

This is the biggest treasure Li Yulu prepared, a jade bracelet.

Chu Lanlan was so embarrassed that she even spoke in a formal manner: "Third Sister gave me this gift, but I dare not refuse."

Bracelets are a woman's appearance, especially if she is going to be a mistress in the future. She should not be too fancy and what she wears must be classy.

This jade bracelet is of average quality, probably fifty taels of silver at most.

There is no harm without comparison.

The eldest ladies didn't think it was anything before, but looking at Chu Lanlan, who was covered in gold and glittering like a jewelery box, and then thinking about how excited a group of them were like celebrating the New Year for a mere fifty-two prizes, they suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
