After he mentioned this, Jia Zheng remembered that he had not yet discussed the main business, and said vaguely: "Garden... Thank you for your concern for the garden. Prince Ning told me about it. Thanks to your good words..."

When Zhang Yun逸 heard the word "Prince Ning", his heart moved.

He wanted to test whether Prince Ning had secretly formed an alliance with Wang Ziteng through the Jia family, so he said: "Madam has already known about this, and Yun Yi is just the icing on the cake!"

"You...what did you say?" Jia Zheng's expression suddenly changed. "How could she know?"

Mrs. Wang, who was outside the door, was shocked when she heard this.

I thought Jia Zheng was kept in the dark, but unexpectedly, he actually knew the truth a long time ago.

She was just hesitating whether she should knock on the door to interrupt, but Jia Zheng's tone inside already sounded a little strange.

He panicked for a moment and was about to turn around and flee, but after listening for a while, he found that his legs and feet were numb from standing, and he lost his balance and fell against the door.

However, the door was not locked, and he fell sideways into the room.

This sudden scene caught the two people in the room off guard and they were both shocked.

Seeing Mrs. Wang suddenly walk in, it was obvious that she had been eavesdropping outside.

Zhang Yun逸 was better, after all, it was Jia Zheng who was bragging and he was just praising him from time to time.

And because Madam Wang's arms were stretched forward and she fell on her side, her clothes were stretched out, and every detail of her clothes was exposed, and her fall formed a curve like the undulating mountains.

Jia Zheng, who was standing by, suddenly felt humiliated.

As the mistress of the Rongguo Mansion, it would have been bad enough for her to eavesdrop, but she actually revealed her whereabouts.

Since Zhang Yunyi had no way to verify it, his previous words were inevitably a bit self-boasting.

He was already upset about being overheard by Mrs. Wang, and now he had lost face in front of the younger generation, so he was even more unhappy.

Without waiting for Madam Wang to stand up, she spoke first and shouted, "Tell me! How many things are you hiding from me?"

Mrs. Wang was lying facing Jia Zheng, and for a moment she was only concerned about her head and not her butt.

Without even bothering to stand up, he quickly explained, "At the beginning, Brother Jing asked Brother Zhen to come over, saying that he could mediate and let Sister marry Prince Ning as a concubine. The old lady was worried that the master would not want to use connections..."

When Jia Zheng mentioned Prince Ning, she was not sure how much he knew, so she simply told him everything and pushed it all to Lady Jia.

As for Zhang Yunyi, since he just said that he had already known the plan and it just happened to be the right time, I'm afraid he was part of Jia Jing's plan.

It would have been better if she hadn't said it. After she said it, Jia Zheng couldn't help but think of how he had boasted and attributed all the credit to himself, and he immediately felt ashamed.

Although this was just a private matter between husband and wife, Zhang Yunyi had no way of knowing.

But just now at the dinner table, he was still acting so noble, but now he had to act with the proper attitude.

He said sternly, "Master, I have always behaved properly and have always been upright. I never thought that my innocence would be ruined in your hands!"

After all, Lady Jia was the elder, so he could not comment and could only put all the blame on Lady Wang.

Then, he turned to Zhang Yunyi and said, "It is a misfortune for our family! I am too embarrassed to accompany my nephew any longer!"

Having said that, he stood up and left.

Zhang Yunyi quickly stood up and said, "Sorry to bother you, uncle!"

Mrs. Wang had no idea of ​​his difficulties. She thought that he hated her so much that she didn't care about her dignity and hurriedly got up from the ground.

She reached out and grabbed Jia Zheng's arm, complaining, "Master! These are all mine..."

Before the wrong word came out, Jia Zheng pushed it out.

He shook off Mrs. Wang and walked away without looking back.

But it was a pity for Lady Wang. Although her sudden intrusion sobered Jia Zheng up a lot, he was still angry and had drunk a lot of wine, so he didn't control his strength.

Mrs. Wang's steps were already a little unsteady, and after he pushed her like that, she staggered and retreated backwards.

Zhang Yun逸 was originally preparing to follow Jia Zheng out, but because of Mrs. Wang’s interference, he stepped back a little.

This step back happened to bump into Zhang Yunyi's arms.

The moment they got close, both of them froze. Mrs. Wang felt as if struck by lightning, and slid into Zhang Yunyi's arms like dough.

The summer shirt was already thin, and the woman in his arms was the mistress of Rongguo Mansion. Just thinking about Zhang Yunyi made him excited, let alone this kind of torture?

Zhang Yunyi was a little dazed, and by the time he reacted, Mrs. Wang's waist and hips had already slipped down.

He quickly reached out and grabbed her under the armpit just before she fell to the ground.

He didn't forget to shout, "Madam, be careful!"

Then he grabbed her arms with both hands, lifted them up slightly, and straightened his waist to lift Mrs. Wang a little higher.

He asked, "Madam, can you see if it can still stand?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang suddenly woke up and hurriedly struggled to break free.

Her face was already red at this moment, she didn't dare to look back, she just said: "Brother Yi, please do as you please."

He staggered out of the side hall.

Zhang Yunyi scratched his palm with his fingertips, smacked his lips, and then left, swinging his arms.

Chapter 128 Aftermath

Jia Zheng knew nothing about what happened in the side hall.

After leaving the side hall, he became more awake when the wind blew.

Talking about Mrs. Wang's performance when the Emperor summoned her, scenes flashed through his mind, and he gradually came to his senses.

In the past, he only thought that Aunt Zhao was a little exaggerated, but he never expected that his always dignified wife would have such a side.

Thinking of her various schemes, his anger subsided a little, and he also felt a little pleased.

Doesn't it prove that you are still as skilled as ever that you try so hard to please him?

Thinking of this, his head heated up and he went straight into Aunt Zhao's room.

He had already warmed up on the way here, and without waiting for the maid to tell him, he rushed into the room in a hurry. Unexpectedly, when he entered the house, he was poured with a basin of cold water.

"Huan... Why is Huan'er still here?"

"Master...Master!" Jia Huan was frightened when he saw his unfriendly expression.

He put on a fatherly air in front of Jia Huan, unwilling to make a fool of himself, but Aunt Zhao did not have such concerns.

She immediately twisted her waist and hips, and came forward, holding his arm, rubbing against his chest, and said softly and hard: "Master! ~ Didn't we agree earlier to ask Huan'er to take a look at Master Yi? I have been waiting with him for an hour."

The news that the Xue family had found Xiangling's mother had already spread throughout the Rongguo Mansion, and Zhang Yunyi's ability to judge people had spread even faster.

Even Li Wan, who has never cared about worldly affairs, has started to have thoughts about it. How could Aunt Zhao, who believes in ghosts and gods, miss it?

But after all, she could not compare with Li Wan, so she could not get close to her and had to place her hopes on Jia Zheng.

When she heard that he was going to entertain Zhang Yunyi in her house, she was overjoyed. She had already laid the groundwork in front of him and then pulled Jia Huan over.

Unexpectedly, when everything was arranged properly, the person was intercepted by Mrs. Wang on the way.

But Jia Zheng didn't have the courage to send anyone to report the news in front of Zhang Yunyi, so she had to wait for a long time.

Although she later sent her maid Xiao Jixiang out to inquire and found out that it was intercepted by Mrs. Wang, she did put in a lot of effort the day before yesterday.

Thinking that Jia Zheng would not be so forgetful, and worried that Jia Zheng would bring Zhang Yunyi over after dinner, and worried that Jia Huan would miss the opportunity if he was not there, he kept waiting.

As she spoke, she looked behind Jia Zheng, and her meaning was self-evident.

Jia Zheng just remembered it at this moment. Of course, he was unwilling to admit that he had completely forgotten it. He beat his chest and stamped his feet, trying to cover up, "Next time! Today, I really pissed off the master! If it weren't for Yi'er telling me the truth, I don't know if she would dare to ruin the master's reputation outside!"

He was interrupted by Mrs. Wang and had no chance to say anything to win over Prince Ning.

Aunt Zhao was startled when she heard this, and then she could no longer hide the smile on her face.

How could she care about anything else at this moment? She quickly winked at Jia Huan.

Jia Huan suddenly felt relieved and disappeared in a flash.

Aunt Zhao increased the strength of her hands and said in a charming voice, "Master, did you hear it wrong? How could the mistress ruin the master's reputation?"

Seeing Jia Huan slip away, Jia Zheng was also distracted by Aunt Zhao's teasing. His mind was full of confusion. He had no idea that she was misunderstanding him. He just said in a muffled voice, "She has already admitted it herself, how can it be false?"

After saying that, he half-pushed and half-shoved Aunt Zhao to the bed.

After getting Jia Zheng's confirmation, Aunt Zhao no longer cared about anything else. She was only thinking about turning the tables.

She would not offend Jia Zheng and would only try to please him.

……

Not to mention how Jia Zheng encouraged him, Zhang Yunyi left the side hall and did not stay in Rong Mansion. Instead, he went straight back to Ning Mansion without wasting a moment.

It’s not that he has a guilty conscience.

Although he took advantage of everything in the side hall, it was Mrs. Wang who took the initiative and threw herself into his arms.

As for the hard-to-speak part...

Who asked Jia Zheng to speak so seriously? Since Mrs. Wang was eavesdropping outside the door, she must have known it very well and would not have made a fuss about it.

Moreover, judging from his reaction, he probably quite enjoyed this intimate contact.

However, after being cooperated by the couple, he was indeed eager to spend some time in Tianxiang Tower.

Yuan was moved by Qin Keqing's proposal and planned to persuade Youshi himself.

Unexpectedly, Qin Keqing volunteered, which made him happy and even more expectant.

He went straight to Tianxiang Tower and saw Xiangling and other two chatting downstairs.

He asked, "Sister-in-law is also upstairs?"

After getting a positive answer, he went upstairs without delay.

When he opened the door, he saw Youshi chatting with Qin Keqing on the bed. He quickly threw off the burden on his body and jumped onto the bed.

Seeing this, Youshi showed a trace of shyness on her face and said blankly: "This... this is..."

Zhang Yunyi's face froze, and he asked in confusion: "Why didn't you tell her?"

"Isn't it the same now? Could it be that the mother-in-law will run away again?"

Qin Keqing showed a cunning look on her face and smiled at Youshi, "Mother-in-law has kept this from me and made me suffer so much. Previously, mother-in-law helped uncle to scheme against me. Now, it's time for mother-in-law to pay back the debt."

As she spoke, she pulled back the quilt and covered Zhang Yunyi with it.

Then, it stuck up like a fish.

When she was perfectly fitted with Zhang Yunyi, she straightened up by supporting herself on Zhang Yunyi's chest and turned to look at Youshi beside her.

Her eyes sparkled like a pool of autumn water, and she cried, "Grandma... Grandma will help others to the end. Uncle doesn't want the child to be of a lower generation, so I have to let Grandma take over the order later..."

Youshi was not unfamiliar with this scene, but she felt a little uncomfortable because she had changed from a sister to a daughter-in-law.

But after hearing that, I accepted it all and no longer cared about anything else.

……

At this moment, Mrs. Wang, who had been lingering outside the room for more than a quarter of an hour, finally let out a long sigh and recovered a little from the contact in the side hall.

She returned to the house and asked the maid to get a basin of cold water. She immersed her face, which was still feeling a little feverish, deeply into the cold water, which helped to calm her restlessness.

Zhang Yun逸’s guess was not wrong, because he was just passively enduring it, and Mrs. Wang really had no intention of investigating further.

However, the strangeness during the contact can be explained by Jia Zheng's little stories.

But as someone who has been through it, I have a deep understanding of the reactions after contact.

Especially when Zhang Yunyi held her under the armpits and straightened his waist to lift her up, at that moment, she almost lost her soul.

But faced with that improper behavior, she didn't feel annoyed at all.

On the contrary, he felt a sense of inexplicable pride that he could still arouse the romantic thoughts of a young boy like Zhang Yunyi.

There is no harm without comparison. She is almost twice as old as Zhang Yunyi, but he not only does not despise her, but he also has amorous thoughts about her just by bumping into her.

He didn't care about the occasion or my identity, and kept bumping into me in different ways.

Jia Zheng, who was much older than her, turned a blind eye to her flattery.

Even with a hint of disgust.
