Lin Jiayue hugged Jiang Xing and cried and laughed. After venting her emotions, she helped Jiang Xing comb his hair and change clothes.
Qingwei acted as the master of the house, but because she was not the master of the house, she was very troubled by Lin Jiayue's unreasonable troubles.
Seeing Lin Jiayue clamoring to make clothes and shoes for Jiang Xing, Qingwei checked the account books and found that the clothes sent to the second room had been distributed, but she had to make several new sets.
Jiang Xing took Lin Jiayue's hand and whispered: "The house made them for me, but my aunt took them away."
Aunt Liu would give most of the clothes and other items given out by the government to Liu Chengxiang and ask him to pawn them in exchange for some money. Sometimes the clothes were worth eight or two or five taels, but Liu Chengxiang would only give her two or three hundred yuan, and she would never tire of it.
Her brother said that her aunt was a stupid smoker, and she felt that his brother was right.
Thinking of Jiang Yan, Jiang Xing's eyes turned red and he felt sad.
"Don't worry about that, I will take you with me in the future."
Lin Jiayue pulled Jiang Xing and looked at everything in the Hou Mansion calmly.
The two of them were walking towards Xiuyan Pavilion when they saw Jiang's mother, with a white face and a strong look on her face, walking over with Qishun's wife. She frowned slightly and pulled Jiang Xing back to Xiuyan Pavilion.
"Jiang Xing, you have to remember that curiosity killed the cat. The less an unintelligent person knows, the longer he will live."
Jiang Xing nodded and returned to Xiuyan Pavilion with Lin Jiayue.
As soon as Jiang's mother entered the main courtyard gate, she sent all the slaves out, including Huai Su.
"What's wrong, mother?"
Only their mother and son were left in the house. Mother Jiang's eyes were scarlet: "It's strange that that bitch would rather hurt you than escape from the house privately. It turns out that she already had a concubine outside, and you still protected her everywhere."
"What are you talking about, mother?"
Jiang's mother said sternly: "Nonsense? Ask the Qishun family to tell you what good things that bitch has done outside."
The Qi Shun family came forward with a wooden face and told Jiang Xingjian about seeing a tall man entering and leaving Song Wan's house at night.
"Wan'er would never do this."
"Won't?"
Jiang's mother pressed her forehead: "You are still protecting her, but how did she treat you? And what can't she do? If she was really a womanly woman, she wouldn't rather stab you than stand up for it. It’s home.”
"With Song Wan's knowledge and character, she will never do such a violation of etiquette. Mother, there is no need to say anymore, Chengyang Marquis Mansion cannot withstand such a storm."
Jiang's mother gritted her teeth and hated him for not fighting.
Jiang Xingjian asked the Qishun family to send the people back to Jiangxiangyuan, and closed his eyes to ponder the matter.
Based on his understanding of Song Wan, she was definitely not a self-destructive and unclear-minded person, and he didn't believe that any man could fall in her eyes.
But the Qishun family will never lie, so...
Jiang Xingjian found Song Yan and asked him to find someone to look at Song Wan's house.
He now suspected that the house might just be a cover-up. Either someone else lived in it, or there was something wrong with the man's identity.
As soon as Song Yan left, Tao Hong walked in.
Tao Hong is also Jiang Xingjian's servant, but he usually travels out to gather information for the Hou Mansion and has not been back for a long time. As soon as I entered the mansion today, I hurriedly came to look for Jiang Xingjian.
"Master Hou, it's done."
"Now there are rare pearls appearing in Ningshan City, Qingnan County, Raohe Ancient Village, Zhashui and Jiangdong Town. The local magistrate has rushed to send the things to Beijing, and the younger brother has spread the relevant information everywhere according to the master's instructions."
"And the stele with the word "Shu" in Donglong City appeared out of thin air, which also caused a lot of suspicion among the people."
"Nowadays, white auspicious deer and golden carps appear everywhere, or temples show colorful lights, etc."
Jiang Xingjian asked: "The thing she gave me can really shine out the colorful light?"
"Master, according to what Aunt Lin said, when I put that thing under the sun, it did indeed show the colorful light."
Jiang Xingjian lowered his eyes and remained silent for a moment while Tao Hong continued to spread the news in Beijing.
The occurrence of auspicious things in various places soon spread in Beijing, and it is said that these auspicious things are all related to the "five".
Song Yuning was sitting in Changxin Palace, looking at Shen Qianbai with a medicinal towel on his face, and his heart felt sour.
When joining the imperial family, sometimes there are things that they are not willing to fight for or want to fight for. But if you don't fight, you will lose yourself and even the lives of the entire clan.
Raising her hand to remove the medical towel on Shen Qianbai's face, Song Yuning carefully wiped off the blood scab for him.
"My slave, I see that the third prince has improved a lot. Now there is still some obvious signs under one eye, but there are not many traces on his face anymore."
Song Yuning nodded: "That's true."
Seeing this, Caiji knelt on the ground and whispered: "My Lady, there are rumors outside that the fifth prince is a real dragon who has come to the world. Although he is now afraid of the Holy One, the important ministers in the court and the people of the world..."
"No need to say it."
"Qianbai can't compete with him, and he can't compete with him."
After covering Shen Qianbai with a quilt, Song Yuning murmured: "The Song family has given up on Qianbai. Although I know this is the best way to preserve the Song family, I cannot accept it in my heart."
"But I have to admit that Qianbai..."
"If I still want Qian Bai to survive, I can no longer let him have that sweet dream."
If Song Yuning can fight, she can also afford to lose.
"Jiang Man's tricks are nothing more than this. During the Lantern Festival, she borrowed the power of the eldest prince to hurt Qianbai. I will not give her another chance in the future."
"I will protect Qian Bai when he grows up. When he is crowned king and leaves the palace, I will be considered successful and retire."
Song Yuning combed Shen Qianbai's messy hair stained with sweat, and said softly: "Being a free prince may not be a bad thing."
"Is your Majesty just going to let Shen Qianshu take over and let Jiang Man ride on your head?"
Song Yuning said: "I don't want him to rise to power, but who in the harem can give birth to a sixth prince?"
After saying that, she sneered: "So what if Shen Qianshu comes to power? If he wins, it doesn't mean Jiang Man wins."
If she couldn't help it, she wouldn't want to watch the son of her enemy ascend the throne.
The two were chatting in a low voice when a palace maid outside came to report that there was a young eunuch who wanted to see them.
"Nowadays, I can see my wife everything? Why don't you send it out?"
"The father-in-law presented this object and said that he must show it to the queen."
Cai Ji took the things and presented them to Song Yuning.
Song Yuning opened it, looked at the moist pearls inside and said hurriedly: "Invite people in."
Shen Qianyu followed the female official into the Changxin Palace with a hunched body. Song Yuning looked up and down, and then said to Caiji: "You all step aside."
"Empress..."
"Back off."
After retreating from the palace, Song Yuning frowned and said, "You are not a chamberlain in the palace, who are you?"
Shen Qianyu raised his eyebrows slightly, secretly thinking that the women in the harem were indeed extraordinary.
He stood up and showed his tall body in front of Song Yuning. As soon as he raised his head, he saw the pearl in the other person's hand.
