The rebirth of the poisonous girl is back

Chapter 82
Jing Qingluan blushed at Jing Se's words, nodded repeatedly and said that he would definitely change in the future.

Jing Se reckoned that she didn't listen much, so she said the last sentence when Jing Qingluan left, "If your husband comes again, you can deal with him yourself, you two will meet one day sooner or later, you There's no way to avoid him."

Jing Qingluan nodded, "I understand."

After sending Jing Qingluan away, when Jing Se came back, she suddenly felt exhausted physically and mentally, too lazy to move, so she simply lay down on the small couch.

Not long after, Qingxue came in to report, "Miss, the servant girl from the Third Madam's side came to report something, and asked if you could go to Yingyue Residence?"

Jing Se half-opened her eyes wearily, and asked, "Is it urgent?"

Qingxue thought for a while, then nodded, "It looks like she should be in a hurry."

Jingse sat up.

The third lady is now in charge of the house, so what she can come to discuss with her must be some uncertain housework.

Without further delay, Jing Se quickly went to Yingyue Residence of the third wife.

Seeing Jing Se enter the door, the maid of the third lady immediately served tea.

The third lady stood up to meet her herself.

Jing Se looked at the third wife with doubts in her eyes, "Why did the third aunt seek me?"

The third lady pulled Jing Se to sit on the armchair, and then she smiled and said, "Arthur, I'm looking for you today because I actually have a private matter."

"Third Aunt, please tell me." Jing Se took a sip of tea and managed to shake off the fatigue from dealing with Chen Yuan and Jing Qingluan earlier.

The third lady's smile became more gentle, "There will be a plum blossom feast in the palace in a few days, and our family only got three invitations, I heard people say that the old lady intends to take you there, has this matter been settled? "

Jing Se's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked instead, "What if it's settled, so what if it's not settled?"

The third lady choked.

Jing Se glanced unintentionally at the figure approaching from the yard outside, she knew it, and said directly: "The third aunt wants me to bring the fourth sister into the palace, right?"

Being directly poked into her heart, the third lady no longer concealed herself, and waved to Jing Shurao who had just entered the door, "Shurao, come quickly and meet your elder sister."

Jing Shurao walked over slowly after hearing the words, and gave Jing Seying a blessing, "Shurao has met big sister."

The three wives have a son, Jing Yi, who is the third, and a daughter, Jing Shurao, who is the fourth.

Jing Shurao was born with bright eyes and bright teeth, cherry lips and pink cheeks, although he didn't have the heavenly fragrance of Jing Wanbai, but he had a taste of Xiaojiabiyu in it.

Jing Se frowned slightly, if the third lady simply invited her to have a cup of tea, then she wouldn't mind, but the third lady obviously had other plans, she wanted her to go to the old lady to intercede, and the last invitation To Jing Shurao.

Before Jing Wanbai entered the prison, among the young ladies in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, almost all the light was concentrated on her alone, so that the other young ladies did not have a bright future at all. The fourth daughter is Jing Shurao, and the sixth daughter is Jing Shudi.

These three people were about the same age as Jing Wanbai, but they were all suppressed by her, so they had no chance to walk out of the gate of Youxiang's mansion to make friends with the dignitaries outside.

Although the third wife is in charge of the house now, she is not stupid, the power in charge of the house is only for a while, and it will be returned to Su Aoyu when the restraint is lifted.

Therefore, the third lady must use her best ability during her time in power to find a chance for her daughter to get ahead.

Jing Shurao is not much younger than Jing Wanbai, and he will soon reach the age of marrying. If he doesn't take the opportunity to show his face at the noble banquet, after Su Aoyu regains the power of the family, Jing Shurao's marriage can only be handled by Su Aoyu .

This is what Liu Shi is most unwilling to do.

It's nothing more than Dafang taking away the qualification of the third-family hereditary prime minister, but now even her own daughter's marriage affairs have to be decided by Dafang, which makes Liu suffocated and has nowhere to vent her anger.

Mrs. Liu also persuaded the third master to propose a separation of the family. The third master on the left and right is still a servant of the Ministry of Rites. Even if the life after the separation is not as satisfactory as it is now, it is better than seeing the face of the big family in everything, and better than the marriage of one's own children. All have to be masters.But the third master is gentle and pure, not good at scheming, he only said that he would stay and take care of the old lady, and he didn't want to separate early.

The third master said so, Liu could only helplessly.

Jing Se can figure out what the third lady is planning after thinking about it for a while.

Standing up, Jing Se said directly: "Third Aunt, the invitation is not in my hands, and it is useless for you to tell me, who the old lady will take with her, she has a number in her mind, if you really want the fourth sister to enter the palace , why not go to the Millennium Hall to find the old lady in person, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope."

Hearing Jing Se's refusal to help, Liu's heart panicked, and she hurriedly said: "Arthur, if you have any difficulties, you can speak up directly, and I will try my best to satisfy you. But in any case, you have to ask Please help, you see, one of the three young ladies in your eldest house married one, and the rest you and Jing Wanbai also have their own engagements, and now only Shu Rao is the only daughter in the family who has not yet discussed marriage After all, she is also your first cousin, so you can't let her die!"

Speaking of which, Liu Shi paused, "Jing Qingluan's marriage was arranged by Su Shi alone, as you can see, she didn't have a happy life after she married, otherwise she wouldn't run back to her natal family without any festivals. Come on. From this, it can be seen that apart from her own biological daughter, Su Shi will not seriously worry about other people's affairs at all, if Shu Rao's marriage falls into her hands, then Shu Rao's life will be over."

After finishing speaking, she stared at Jing Se, her tone full of pleading, "Arthur, I beg you, Third Aunt, please do me this favor!"

As Liu said, she gave Jing Shurao a wink.

Jing Shurao immediately went to the table next to her and took a brocade box and handed it to Jing Se, and said in a low voice, "Eldest sister, this is a little wish from my younger sister, don't let it go."

Jing Se lowered her eyebrows, and saw that there was a set of hair masks in the brocade box, the quality of which was fairly high-quality, the kind that Jing Shurao was reluctant to buy and wear.

Jing Se sneered, "What is fourth sister doing?"

Seeing Jing Se's cold face, Jing Shurao suddenly felt trembling, and bit the corner of her lips, "I also hope that elder sister can go to the old lady and say a few words, so that younger sister can follow you into the palace."

Jing Se stared at Jing Shurao, "Since you are so smart and know how to use gifts to bribe me, why don't you just bribe the old lady? The invitation is in the hands of the old lady, and it is up to her to decide who she will take. The concubine's daughter is not as favored as you imagined, if I can control the old lady's mind, wouldn't the power of the house now not be in the hands of the third aunt, but in my own hands?"

After finishing speaking, Jing Se turned to look at Liu Shi, raised her eyebrows, "Third Aunt, what do you think?"

Liu's face turned pale, she had calculated thousands of times, but she didn't expect that Jing Se would have such a reaction.

She thought that even if Jing Se didn't give Jing Shurao face, she would stand by her because everyone hated Su Shi so much, and helped Jing Shurao by the way, but she didn't expect that Jing Se would not accept this at all. set.

"Arthur." Liu Shi is not as narrow-minded as Su Shi. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will not give up. "If you have any difficulties, just say it."

Jing Se smiled, "I've been doing well all along, thank you for your care, Third Aunt."

Mrs. Liu stepped forward and said earnestly: "Jing Wanbai is notorious now, and the old lady is determined to never bring her into the palace. Apart from you, the only daughter in the house is Shu Rao from our family. Logically speaking, old lady One should bring Shu Rao into the palace, but the invitation has been in the hands of the old lady for several days, but there is no news from my side. It can be seen that the old lady has no intention of bringing Shu Rao into the palace. I also can't guess what the old lady is thinking, since you are not willing to intercede with the old lady to take Shu Rao, can Third Aunt ask you to help me find out who the old lady is going to take."

When Liu's words came to this point, his posture was already very low.

Jing Se was not moved by her, but thought that Jing Wan Bai would come out soon, if that woman put eye drops in front of the old lady at that time, causing the old lady to take her into the palace with a soft heart, it would be too bad.

Weighing left and right for a moment, Jing Se finally nodded, "Okay, I'll help my third aunt find out, but I have something to say first, if you dare to spread the news today, especially to the old lady's ears, don't blame me for being ruthless at that time .”

"No." Liu shook her head again and again, with a smile on her face, "I can't even thank Arthur for helping me so much. How could it be possible to harm you?"

"Thank you, big sister, Shu Rao." Jing Shu Rao blushed when she thought that she finally had the opportunity to enter the palace and meet the noble children.

Jing Se didn't stay any longer, and soon left Yingyue Residence.

*
Second room, Tingxueyuan.

Jing Nanqing has been angry all morning, and she is still throwing the glass.

Aunt Zhou stood aside tremblingly and looked at her daughter, her heart was full of sadness.

"Auntie, I don't care, I'm going to enter the palace, you quickly find a way for me!" Jing Nanqing stared at Aunt Zhou with a look of indignation.

Aunt Zhou wiped her tears secretly, and said: "You just listen to Auntie, wouldn't it be good to be your Fifth Miss obediently? Why do you have to fight for those false names? Besides, with our status, how could we have the opportunity to enter the house with the old lady?" palace?"

Jing Nanqing gritted her teeth in resentment, "Fifth Miss and Fifth Miss, I have heard enough of this title, why can't I be the third lady, can't be the fourth lady, why are you so unworthy, auntie, if you are a wife, then I am the real one. My daughter is the daughter of a concubine, and when such a good thing happens, the old lady will naturally consider me instead of letting the opportunity fall on Sanfang."

Jing Nanqing never said these words before, this time there happened to be a plum blossom feast in the palace, and the old lady got three invitations, just now Jing Nanqing saw that the people from the third room invited Jing Se over, so she knew without thinking It must be because of going to the palace for a banquet, Jing Nanqing has been keeping a straight face since she came in, insisting on asking Aunt Zhou to intercede with the old lady and let her enter the palace.

The more Aunt Zhou thought about it, the more she felt sad, she was just a concubine, how could she have such a great ability to persuade the old lady to bring a concubine into the palace?
This is simply impossible.

The words Jing Nanqing scolded her for being unworthy and only worthy of being a concubine for the rest of her life still lingered in her ears, so Aunt Zhou had no choice but to swallow the pain back to her stomach, squatting down with red eyes to pick up the fragments of the teacup Jing Nanqing shattered.

When Jing Nanqing saw Aunt Zhou's low-pitched appearance, she couldn't control her anger. She stood up and kicked the broken porcelain to the side so that Aunt Zhou found nothing, and gritted her teeth and cursed, "Auntie, you When will I be able to fight for some anger, my happiness in this life will be ruined in your hands!"

Aunt Zhou couldn't say a word, so she squatted on the ground and wept silently.

Jing Nanqing continued to chatter, "Father is not here, won't you think of a way to get him back? I heard that he took several concubines and gave birth to heirs. If you continue to be so weak, I will only be a concubine in my life , what face do you want me to go out to meet people?"

As she spoke, Jing Nanqing began to cry.

"Miss Fifth." Aunt Zhou stood up, looking at Jing Nanqing with tears in her eyes, "I blame Auntie for being bad, Auntie won't make you angry anymore, don't cry, okay?"

"Get out!" Jing Nanqing gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, "Why didn't I crawl out of the second lady's stomach, why did you give birth to me, and let me bear the status of this unbearable concubine for the rest of my life, I hate you to death Already!"

Before Aunt Zhou could speak again, Jing Nanqing wiped her tears and wanted to run outside.

"What's the matter?" A lazy voice suddenly came from outside, and then a young man came from the corridor. He was very handsome, with fair complexion, dressed in a light blue brocade robe, with a silver sheath dagger on his waist, walking No one is serious, there is always a ruffian exuding from the corners of the eyes and brows.

This person is Jing Lan, the Second Young Master of Youxiang Mansion, the biological son of the late Second Wife, and the only heir of the Second Household.

He lazily leaned against the door frame with his arms folded, glanced inside the door, saw Aunt Zhou and Jing Nanqing both had tears on their faces, he understood a little, grabbed them and ran away crying Jing Nanqing who came over asked her, "Who is this who provoked Fifth Younger Sister?"

When Jing Nanqing saw Jing Lan, she would think of her unbearable status as a concubine. She glared at him and snorted coldly, then shook off his hand and prepared to leave.

Jing Lan glanced at her lazily, "The imperial palace is a place of right and wrong. If you go there, you will only be eaten to the bone."

Jing Nanqing was taken aback, "Second brother, do you know that I want to go to the palace?"

Jing Lan walked in and sat down, crossed her legs and raised her eyebrows, "I heard you complaining about my aunt's bad background from afar, and now everyone in the family will know about it."

Aunt Zhou's face turned pale immediately, and she looked at Jing Lan nervously, "Second Young Master, did the people outside really hear it?"

Jing Lan suddenly smiled and said, "I'm scaring Fifth Sister. Our second bedroom is located a little bit away, so it's not enough for people outside to hear a word."

Aunt Zhou quickly stroked her chest, still feeling a little scared in her heart.

Jing Nanqing originally wanted to slam the door and leave, but now that Jing Lan came in, she immediately changed her mind, wiped her tears again, and came in with her skirt in her hands to stand in front of Jing Lan.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Jing Lan narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Second brother, the old lady has always loved you very much, right?" Jing Nanqing graciously went around behind Jing Lan and rubbed his shoulders.

Jing Lan is intelligent by nature, so how can she not understand what Jing Nanqing is planning.

He enjoyed her rare initiative to show courteousness, but said in his mouth: "The old lady loves Yanyan more now, don't try to use me to intercede for you, the old lady is shrewd, she won't accept such a thing at all."

When Jing Nanqing heard that it was the big room again, she was so angry that her whole body was about to smoke, and the strength in her hands involuntarily increased, and Jing Lan screamed in pain.

Slapping Jing Nanqing's hand away, Jing Lan frowned and stared at her, "Damn girl, you want to murder, right?"

Jing Nanqing came back to her senses, and quickly apologized with her mouth pouting, "I'm sorry, second brother, I just got angry for a while..."

Jing Lan snorted softly, "I'm not angry but the old lady favors the big house, so you vent your anger on your brother?"

"Where is it?" Jing Nanqing looked aggrieved, "I didn't mean it."

Jing Lan snorted again, "You can do such a heavy hand without intention, so if you have the intention, wouldn't my little life have to be in your hands?"

"Second young master calm down." Aunt Zhou's calm state of mind was frightened by Jing Lan's words, and she hurried over to grab Jing Nanqing, "Fifth Miss, apologize to your second brother."

Now Jing Nanqing gets angry when she sees Aunt Zhou, she is still willing to listen to her, she just frowned and said: "My lady just said too modestly, Auntie, are you deaf and didn't you hear?"

Aunt Zhou choked suddenly, and quickly lowered her eyelashes.

Jing Lan's face suddenly became gloomy, and all the anger on his face was suppressed, and he glared at Jing Nanqing angrily, "You have the guts to say it again!"

Jing Nanqing had never seen Jing Lan like this before, so she was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly, "Second brother, I..."

"Kneel down!" Jing Lan's expression turned frosty, "Apologize to Auntie!"

"Why?" Although Jing Nanqing was taken aback by Jing Lan's aura, she was sure in her heart that Jing Lan would not dare to do anything to her younger sister, so she felt confident, "I'm not wrong."

Jing Lan raised her slap, and squeezed out a warning from between her teeth, "I'll say it again, kneel down and apologize!"

This time, Jing Nanqing was really frightened. Her legs softened and she knelt down. She didn't apologize, but tears kept falling.

It was also the first time for Aunt Zhou to see Jing Lan get angry. After a moment of stupor, she came over to plead for mercy, "Second Young Master, Miss Fifth is in a bad mood, so don't be familiar with her."

Jing Lan kept a straight face, and her eyes fell on Jing Nanqing, "You can insult your biological mother at will when you are in a bad mood? Who taught you this bad temper? No matter how unbearable my aunt is, it will be the end of her pregnancy once she is pregnant in October, and no matter how hard she suffers, no matter how hard she is. You dragged your biological mother, it's all right if you don't know how to be grateful at a young age, but now you have to bully me, if I don't come today, I'm afraid my aunt will be tortured by you, Jing Nanqing, do you still have a conscience?"

Jing Nanqing is only 13 years old, and she doesn't understand many things. For example, what Jing Lan just taught her just now, she didn't think deeply about it, but felt aggrieved, so she cried, "Yes, I didn't Conscience, but I just want the status of a prostitute, and I want a chance to follow the old lady into the palace to show her face and make friends with the powerful. What is wrong with me? Why are you all blaming me? I am as beautiful as Jing Shurao. She is also more flexible than her, so why can she enter the palace but I can't? Is it just because she is a concubine? Then why am I not? Shouldn't all this be blamed on my aunt? If she wasn't just a concubine, why would I Do you think it's easy for me to live under the eyes of others with such an identity?"

"Pa——" Jing Nanqing just finished speaking, and Jing Lan slapped her without hesitation.

Aunt Zhou exclaimed, "Second Young Master!"

Jing Lan's slap was particularly powerful, Jing Nanqing didn't knelt firmly, and fell to the ground all at once, with five red marks and fingerprints on her fair face, which swelled up in a short while.

How could Jing Nanqing be willing to accept it obediently? She stood up, pinched her fists and beat Jing Lan continuously, crying while beating, "You beat me, and even you bullied me, are you amazing?"

Jing Lan grabbed her wrist, "Since you think it's nothing special, why do you have to join in the fun?"

Jing Nanqing stopped talking, but kept beating Jing Lan.

"Apologize to Auntie!" Jing Lan tightened her grip, and Jing Nanqing's face twisted in pain.

"I don't, I won't!" Even though she was crying from the pain, Jing Nanqing still didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her.

"Do you want to get another slap?" Jing Lan's eyes darkened, revealing the coldness.

"Three..." Jing Lan counted down.

"two……"

Seeing Jing Lan's slap was about to come down, Jing Nanqing suddenly closed her eyes in fear, and said quickly, "Auntie, I'm sorry."

"Speak up!" Jing Lan yelled.

"Auntie, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong." Jing Nanqing raised her voice again.

"Where is it wrong?" Jing Lan asked again.

"I...I..." Jing Nanqing panicked in her heart, an apology was meant to be said against her will, but now she was asked to find out the reason, how could she tell, she hesitated for a long time without saying a word.

"If you can't figure it out, go back to the room, and eat when you want to come out." Jing Lan let go of her, snorted coldly, and ordered the two little maids to bring Jing Nanqing back to the room.

Aunt Zhou looked embarrassed, "Second Young Master, Fifth Miss is still young, if you do this, it may backfire."

Jing Lan looked helplessly at Aunt Zhou, took a deep breath, sat down again, and said, "Auntie, the reason Fifth Sister became so coquettish and domineering is all because of your lax discipline, next time she dares to make such a fuss again , you don't need to hesitate, just use your ear to greet her, and she will be able to behave if you come here three or two times."

Aunt Zhou lamented, "Second Young Master is right, but Miss Fifth is a young lady after all, no matter how angry the servants and concubines are, they can't do anything to her. If it gets out, it will shame the Right Prime Minister's House."

"Auntie." Jing Lan became more and more helpless, "If you spoil her like this and let her go on messing around, she will kill herself sooner or later. This plum appreciation banquet is indeed a good opportunity for the young ladies to show their faces. But Fifth Younger Sister only has such a little brain, and she often doesn't know the importance of what she says, if she really goes and says something wrong in front of the Holy Majesty and the Empress, then she will definitely not be able to bear it and walk around."

Aunt Zhou was surprised again after hearing this.

Jing Lan said again: "How did my mother disappear? Auntie, even if you don't know the truth, you should be able to guess. It's true that the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is a noble mansion, but the inner house is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. If you want to survive for a long time, You must find your own position, many things, no matter whether they belong to you or not, will be coveted early on, and it is better to retreat back safely than to touch the stone with an egg."

Aunt Zhou nodded repeatedly, "The concubine will always remember the teachings of the second young master."

"The fifth sister's disturbance today must have been heard by all the maids in the yard. You can go and tell me later, no one can reveal this matter, otherwise the uncles and aunts will find out. What troubles will happen. My father doesn't return to Beijing all year round, and I know I have wronged my aunt, so don't worry, when my father returns, I will let him give you a proper title." Jing Lan played with the baby shorts around her waist Sword, but the tone is serious.

Aunt Zhou hurriedly said: "Second young master, don't say that, the second wife is the young lady of the concubine, how dare the concubine compete with the young lady?"

Jing Lan glanced at her, "You are kind-hearted, and you are willing to keep an empty house and be a concubine, but do you know how many concubines my father took and how many children he gave birth to? If one day he is transferred back to Jinling, he will definitely bring those people back with him , you haven't seen my father for many years, so naturally you don't have much affection for him, and those outsiders will provoke you at will, not to mention you, I'm afraid even my son-in-law will not have a foothold."

Aunt Zhou frowned, "No, Second Master is such a good person, why would he neglect Second Young Master for the sake of his concubine and concubine daughter?"

"People's hearts are fickle." Jing Lan reminded, "This is the end of my words, think about it for yourself, don't wait for my father to return with those people secretly wiping away tears all day long."

Watching Jing Lan go away, Aunt Zhou bit the corner of her lips tightly. She listened to Jing Lan's words, but when she thought of the missing lady, she felt guilty and entangled.

*
Not long after Jing Se returned to Muyun Residence, the third wife, Mrs. Liu, actually came over in person.

Jing Se reckoned that she was about to bring up the matter of letting Jing Shurao enter the palace with the old lady again, and there was a bit of displeasure on her brows.

Sensing Jing Se's thoughts, Mrs. Liu hurriedly said, "Miss, don't worry, I didn't come to you for Shu Rao's business."

"Why is that?" Jing Se raised an eyebrow in doubt.

Liu said: "I heard that Miss San will be back tomorrow, I'm here to discuss with you about hosting a banquet for her."

Jing Se was slightly taken aback.

Now the power of the family is in the hands of Liu Shi, how to arrange it is not all based on her words, it is really unreasonable to find Jing Se, but she did come to look for it, so there is only one possibility: Liu Shi testing.

Jing Wan Bai was convicted and imprisoned for using fakes to pass off as royal objects, and the victim was Jing Se.Tomorrow Jing Wanbai will be released and come back from Jingzhao Mansion. It is certain to receive her, but how to receive her, how to hold a banquet, and how big the banquet is, all have something to do with Jing Se's mood. If Jing Se does not forgive Jing Wanbai , then Liu's private banquet will cause trouble.

Therefore, Liu Shi came to Jing Se to test Jing Se's attitude towards Jing Wan Bai, so that he could arrange a banquet tomorrow.

In a short while, Jing Se saw through Liu Shi's thoughts.

With a slight smile, Jing Se said: "The third younger sister likes to be lively the most. Tomorrow's banquet must be set up in a grand manner. It is best to invite a few wives and daughters from aristocratic families to save face for the third younger sister, so as not to make people think that our right-hand mansion is stingy." .”

Liu's brain can turn around, she understood Jing Se's intention after a little thought, her eyes lit up, a flash of joy flashed in her eyes, and she praised with a smile: "Sure enough, the eldest lady is clever."

Jing Se smiled and said nothing.

To deal with a self-righteous woman like Jing Wan Bai, this is the way to go, don't give her the slightest chance to breathe, otherwise she will jump even more.

After Mrs. Liu left, Jing Se went to the study to find Jing Yuhuan.

Jing Yuhuan was very surprised to see Jing Se coming to look for him. He raised his head and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Is Arthur looking for me?"

"It's true that I want to ask my father for something." Jing Se's expression was sincere, and she couldn't bear to refuse.

"Tell me." Jing Yuhuan motioned.

Jing Se said: "Tomorrow the third sister will return home, and the third aunt is going to host a banquet. Can my father save my mother's confinement for my sake? She has been ill for a long time, and was confinement by her father for a few days. If you have any thoughts, you should wear them out. It is a good thing that the third sister returned safely. She must have been wronged during the few days she spent in prison. If she comes back and hears the news that her mother was grounded, I am afraid she will not be able to bear it. .”

Hearing Jing Se's words, Jing Yuhuan's heart moved slightly, and it was at this moment that he finally felt that Jing Se was so sensible.In this matter, she was clearly the victim, but now she was able to intercede for her stepmother and arrange everything for her younger sister regardless of the past.

With a relieved smile, Jing Yuhuan said: "Okay, then I will spare your mother's confinement for the sake of your pleading."

Jing Se smiled and knelt, "Thank you, Arthur."

After Jing Se left, Jing Yuhuan got up and went to Linglong Courtyard.

Two days without eating or drinking, Su Aoyu was so emaciated that she couldn't recognize her figure. She was lying on the bed, her bloodshot eyes stared at the ceiling, and on the small table next to her was the completely cold food, which she hadn't touched.

A few days ago, Mu Jin was beaten to the point of being sick, Ming Xia was pushed down by Qing'er in the snow and broke her arm, and she has not recovered yet. Now only Aunt Xue and Yuan Duck are standing outside the room, circling around anxiously.

Seeing Jing Yuhuan approaching, the two of them had bright eyes, and hurriedly went up to greet each other, "The servant (the old slave) has seen the elder."

Jing Yuhuan waved his hands casually, "How is the eldest lady?"

Aunt Xue shook her head, "Madam still won't eat or drink."

Jing Yuhuan frowned, and ordered, "Go to the kitchen and make another one, and I will watch her eat it myself."

Aunt Xue and Yuanyang were overjoyed, they hurriedly brought out the cold food in the room, poured it out and rushed to the kitchen.

When Jing Yuhuan walked into the room, seeing Su Aoyu's haggard appearance, his face darkened.

Sitting down in front of the couch, he asked, "Are you really going on a hunger strike to the end?"

Su Aoyu didn't even move her eyes, her voice was dry and hoarse, "If the master doesn't want to save Wan Bai, I will go on a hunger strike to the end."

Jing Yuhuan sighed and shook his head, "Who can be blamed for this? It's not good for you to slander anyone, but you want to slander Arthur. That's all. How dare you pretend to be a royal treasure with a fake? This time, the Holy Majesty has already opened the sky if he didn't convict you." En."

As soon as this was mentioned, Su Aoyu became excited. She stared at Jing Yuhuan with bloodshot eyes sideways, and explained: "Master must believe in my concubine. I didn't use fakes to slander Jingse. It's her. It was she who exchanged the earrings given by the imperial court halfway, and made a fake to frame my concubine, who was wronged and wronged in vain!"

The iron-clad facts were before his eyes, even Mei Shangfu from the Shangfu Bureau personally checked and asserted that the earring was not made by the inner court, yet Su Aoyu still refuted it like this.

Seeing Su Aoyu's appearance, Jing Yuhuan couldn't help showing a little disgust in his eyes when he thought of the way Jing Se went to plead for her just now.

"Enough!" Jing Yuhuan stood up with a cold snort, and said in a deep voice: "Just now Arthur begged me to spare you from being grounded. Arthur is a victim, and she can be so magnanimous regardless of past suspicions." , but now you are still clinging to the hard truth, insisting on stabbing her in the back, Su Aoyu, when did you become so narrow-minded and fearful?"

Hearing this, Su Aoyu froze and said after a long time: "Impossible, that little slut Jingse wants to put our mother and daughter to death, how could she be so kind to ask you to spare me? Master, here There must be a conspiracy, you can't easily fall into her trap!"

Jing Yuhuan snorted coldly again, "Tomorrow when Wan Bai returns home, Arthur and the third younger siblings discussed hosting a banquet. She doesn't want Wan Bai to see you in such a state of immortality, so she came here to beg for favors, because you have a small belly." , You have a dirty mind, that's why you think of others as badly as you. Arthur is kind, how can you have so many vicious thoughts?"

"What? Wan Bai will be back tomorrow?" Su Aoyu's focus was entirely on this sentence, knowing that her precious daughter was fine, her whole body seemed to come back to life, and her eyes gradually became radiant.

"I knew the sage was wise and would not wrong a good person for no reason." Su Aoyu said to herself, and then looked at Jing Yuhuan, "Master, Wan Bai suffered a lot in prison, you have to love her well when you come back, I can't let her suffer like this again."

The gloom between Jing Yuhuan's eyebrows did not decrease but increased, he pursed his lips and remained silent.

Aunt Xue and Yuanyang quickly came in with food boxes, put the delicious food on the table one by one and retreated.

Jing Yuhuan said: "I specially asked Aunt Xue and the others to prepare this again. You can eat a little bit, at least you can go to the hall tomorrow, don't embarrass Wan Bai."

"The concubine knows." Su Aoyu couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, and with Jing Yuhuan's support, she got up and got out of bed and sat down at the Eight Immortals table.

When she was in a good mood, her appetite also improved, and Su Aoyu ate two bowls of rice in a row.

Jing Yuhuan has been sitting on the side, looking a little preoccupied.

"Master, how do you know that you will be unhappy when Wan Bai returns home tomorrow?" Su Aoyu sensed something was wrong, put down her chopsticks and looked at Jing Yuhuan.

Jing Yuhuan sighed softly, "I just think that let the past be the past, and from now on, you should treat Arthur kindly, and don't let her be wronged again, that's just a motherless Son, if you say a few wrong words occasionally, you as a mother just let her do it, why do you have to haggle over every detail to the point where fire and water are incompatible?"

As soon as Su Aoyu heard it, her face became gloomy, "Why, master, you mean I blamed me for treating her harshly? You can go and ask me, what point have I failed to do my duty in all these years? From the day she left the mansion, we People have to visit her every few months. If there is anything good in the house, you have to think about her first. Which one is not the best for her? The master is now blaming me for my small belly, so why don't you go to Jingse and let her Don't fight against our mother and daughter in the future, wouldn't everyone be happy?"

Jing Yuhuan closed his thick eyebrows and sullenly said, "Su Shi, don't push yourself too hard. You were able to get rid of the confinement today because of Arthur's pleading. If she wanted to care about you, why did she do that?"

"It's just a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken." Su Aoyu sneered, "Do you think I don't know what that little bitch is up to all day long? She just can't understand me stealing her mother's position, and she can't understand Wan Bai's bickering." She is beautiful, so she always tries to punish our mother and daughter. I think that I served her soup and medicine day and night in the early years, but what I got in return after a few years is this kind of reward. If I knew this earlier, why should I agree to Jin? Mrs. Guogong came to take care of her? If you act out of favors, you will attract a lot of resentment, and you will not be a human being inside and outside. If you were me, what would you think?"

Jing Yuhuan was left speechless by Su Aoyu's question, and the gloom on his face finally dissipated, but he didn't say much, he just ordered, "Take a good rest today, and you will leave the yard when Wan Bai returns tomorrow. In case she sees your skinny appearance, she won't be able to help feeling sad."

In the evening, Jingse went to the Millennium Hall.

It happened that Mrs. Jiang was holding Yan Yan inside, and the old lady was amused by Yan Yan's cute appearance.

Seeing Jing Se coming in, Mrs. Jing hurriedly beckoned, "Arthur, come and see my great-grandson, he has been waving his little hands to grab things, and if he is not caught, he will cry and lie, but I am so happy I can't get up straight."

Jing Se walked over to salute, then sat next to Jiang and asked about her recent milking situation. After learning that Yanyan was able to drink normal breast milk, Jing Se felt relieved.

Mrs. Jing teased Yan Yan for a while before looking at Jing Se, "I heard that Wan Bai will return tomorrow, what are the arrangements for the third daughter-in-law?"

Jing Se said: "Third Aunt is going to host a banquet, and specially invited a few daughters from aristocratic families who have a good relationship with Third Sister to accompany her."

Mrs. Jing nodded, "Wan Bai usually likes to be lively and save face, this arrangement will best satisfy her."

Seeing that Jing Se came to see the old lady for something important, Jiang made an excuse and went back with Yanyan in her arms.

Seeing that Jing Se was hesitant to speak, Mrs. Jing said, "Arthur, do you have something to say?"

Jing Se said with a smile: "Just now, the old lady said that the third sister likes to be lively, and I don't know if the plum appreciation banquet in a few days will also let her go to the lively scene?"

When Mrs. Jing heard this, her complexion was not very good.It took a long time before he said: "She has such a reputation now, how can she enter the palace? Although Concubine Shu sent three invitations, but after thinking about it, I still think it is good to take you alone, you are a decent person , and know how to speak properly, the best way to give the Right Prime Minister a face. If the Queen Mother sees it, she will be very happy."

Jing Se said: "Concubine Shu clearly sent three invitations, but the old lady took me alone, is there something wrong?"

Mrs. Jing snorted softly, "What's wrong, I value you the most in this mansion now, and the others are not on the table. You must not make any mistakes when attending this kind of occasion, otherwise the whole family will have to suffer. Being implicated, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is already on the cusp after Jing Wanbai's incident, and the situation is so tense that we can't allow us to take a wrong step."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Jing remembered something again, her brows and eyes softened, "Furthermore, didn't you mention the marriage of His Highness the Third Highness last time? There are many rich families entering the palace this time, so you will observe secretly at that time. If you think someone is suitable, you can secretly remind Concubine Shu, or you can directly talk to His Highness the Third Highness, if it can be done, that would be great."

It seems that the old lady is determined not to bring another person into the palace.

Jing Se lowered her eyebrows, thinking that the old lady is a very shrewd person, and there is only so much she can inquire about for the Liu family. If she said more, it would definitely make the old lady unhappy.

Not long after, Jing Se left the Millennium Hall and returned to her yard.
