The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 147: Rumors stir up trouble (Part )
After reporting to Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng waited for a while, but seeing no movement, she could only say, "Madam, Aunt Zhao has given the master a pair of children after all, so I can't interrogate her without authorization!"

Although Aunt Zhao was Jia Zheng's concubine, concubines were also slaves, and she had the right to interrogate people, not to mention that she was spreading rumors about her mistress.

However, Mrs. Wang couldn't find any fault with her words.

Mrs. Wang was stunned when she heard this. She felt guilty and the first thing she thought of was that someone happened to see her intimate contact with Zhang Yun逸 that night.

His eyes couldn't help but look at Caixia and Caiyun beside him.

Seeing that both of them had shocked expressions, he finally came to his senses a little.

Although I felt a little nervous, I was already in the spotlight at the moment. If I tried to keep quiet, I was afraid that the rumor would only get more and more intense.

She did not blame Wang Xifeng for making such a fuss. After all, the rumor had already spread. If she tried to cover it up, who knows what kind of gossip would spread.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Go! Bring that slutty vixen to me!"

She was furious at the moment and her words were merciless.

A moment later, Aunt Zhao was brought in.

The people sent by Mrs. Wang were all her trusted followers who came with the dowry. They had never had a good impression of Aunt Zhao, and now that they had found an excuse, they naturally would not be polite.

There was pushing, shoving, pulling and tugging along the way, which not only made Aunt Zhao's hair messy and her face dusty, but also made her clothes disheveled.

The buttons on the front were torn, revealing a large white spot.

Although Aunt Zhao was in a very miserable state, there was no shame on her face, but rather a hint of joy.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw the servants all over the courtyard. Without waiting for Mrs. Wang to ask, she cried out in a mournful voice, "Madam, please understand! These words were not spread by the mouth of a servant, but by the mouth of the master himself!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the courtyard suddenly fell silent.

Even the maids who had just pushed Aunt Zhao froze and looked at Madam Wang with horror on their faces.

Mrs. Wang felt as if she were struck by lightning and her mind went blank.

She was confident that she had always behaved properly and there was nothing wrong with her, but Jia Zheng pushed her into Zhang Yunyi's arms.

Although Jia Zheng left angrily that night, he might return at a critical moment and happen to see a scene he shouldn't have seen.

She was so distracted at that time that she didn't notice his sudden return, which was normal.

Wang Xifeng was also startled, but she was the first to recover. She quickly stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped Aunt Zhao in the face.

He shouted angrily, "How dare you talk nonsense!"

Aunt Zhao was in a powerful position, so she was not willing to suffer any loss. The old woman who was holding her had not yet reacted and let her hide away.

As she bent down to dodge, she shouted, "The master is right here with me. You can find out by just asking. It's not just the master who knows about this. There's also Master Yi from the East Palace... The master said that the mistress has accepted it, so why is he taking his anger out on me now?"

She originally said this to enhance the value of her words so that everyone would be convinced that what she said was true.

Because of the experience of being intercepted last time, she did not make a big fuss when Jia Zheng hosted a dinner this time, and just used the excuse that Jia Zheng wanted to add a few more dishes.

At this moment, he also deliberately concealed the fact that Zhang Yunyi was invited to the banquet, in order to let him be in person to provide evidence for himself.

After hearing the first sentence, Mrs. Wang felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Sure enough, she collapsed in Zhang Yunyi's arms, and was held upright by him, which was seen by Jia Zheng.

Otherwise, why would Aunt Zhao bring up his name?

But after hearing the last sentence, she realized that this was talking about Yuanchun.

A strange blush appeared on her face. She put aside the inappropriate thoughts and said in a deep voice: "Okay! In this case, let's go to confront the master!"

Wang Xifeng was a little dumbfounded at first, but after hearing what Mrs. Wang said, she seemed not to be afraid, and she was a little confused for a moment.

Aunt Zhao obviously has someone to rely on, and she made it very clear that Jia Zheng said that Lady Wang had already accepted it. But why can she still remain calm?

Moreover, even if there was something wrong with Mrs. Wang, what did it have to do with Zhang Yun逸?
How did he know?
She couldn't help but think of Jia Jing's birthday and the deal that Zhang Yun逸 mentioned, saying that the Wang family would also benefit from it.

Could it be that he had already had dealings with the family and she was kept in the dark, and was working with Madam Wang to frame Aunt Zhao?
This is not impossible. Apart from the Ning Mansion, only the Xue family and himself are involved in his business.

There is no need to say more about myself. Isn't Aunt Xue's surname Wang?
Mrs. Wang took the initiative to propose in front of Lady Jia that the management of the garden be handed over to him, which showed that she trusted him very much.

Although her mind was in turmoil, she knew that now was not the time to ask questions, so she had to suppress her doubts.

Following the group of people, they arrived at Aunt Zhao's yard.

"Where is the master?" When they arrived in the courtyard, Mrs. Wang looked around and said with a stern face.

"The master just went out!" The maid in Aunt Zhao's room hurried forward to answer.

"Kneel down!" Mrs. Wang shouted angrily, "I want to see what else you have to say in front of the master!"

When the servants saw her such momentum, they seemed to have found their backbone and immediately pressed Aunt Zhao to the ground.

"Master! Master..." Aunt Zhao struggled endlessly. Her body was being pulled further and further away, but she was completely unaware and just kept calling out Jia Zheng.

……

"Uncle! Please don't blame me for being late!"

"Nephew, please come in!"

Jia Zheng, who was in the front yard of Rong Mansion, had no idea that the backyard had become a mess.

When he saw Zhang Yunyi, he couldn't help but think of the scene of Mrs. Wang lying on the ground that night, and he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

He forced a smile, greeted Zhang Yunyi, and led him to the backyard without saying a word.

Zhang Yunyi didn't expect that he would have such strong stamina.

After all, it wasn't a big deal in his opinion.

However, after returning to Ning Mansion, he did not come to Rong Mansion immediately. Instead, he went back to change his clothes, went to see Xiangling again, and chatted with Feng Shi for a while.

Instead, Jia Zheng had to wait in the front yard for quite a while, and he felt unhappy because he had been waiting for so long.

However, he is not without awareness of being a junior.

Instead, I thought to myself, since you took the initiative to invite me, you must have something to ask for. If you are being so cold now, there is no reason for me to flatter you.

So, without saying a word, he followed Jia Zheng.

I originally thought that since he was taking me all the way to the backyard, he would definitely go to Mrs. Wang's yard again.

He couldn't help but glance at Jia Zheng.

He knew clearly the distraught reaction of Mrs. Wang after he picked her up that night.

Although she was nearly forty years old, he had lived two lives and his mental age was not younger than Lady Wang. Moreover, she was a lady from a wealthy official family and she took good care of herself, so she looked to be in her early thirties. With the blessing of her status, he did not reject her.

I even secretly look forward to seeing her again and getting a glimpse of her feelings from her expression.

It can be seen that Jia Zheng did not enter the house, but walked inside instead. He was somewhat disappointed because he was not familiar with the layout of Rong Mansion.

However, his disappointment did not last long. When he followed Jia Zheng into a small courtyard, his eyes suddenly widened.
