Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yan couldn't bear to say any harsh words. She only asked with a cold face: "I heard that Mu Yunhuan fell into the lake at the banquet. Does this have anything to do with you?"
Zhou Jingyi's face changed with fright, and she shook her head tremblingly: "No...it's none of my business. She said it was an accident."
When Mrs. Yan saw her stuttering, she knew there was something wrong. She narrowed her eyes and lowered her voice and said, "Did you really do it?"
Zhou Jingyi hugged Mrs. Yan's legs and said, "I...I was just angry and wanted to teach her a lesson. I didn't want to harm her."
"you......"
Mrs. Yan looked at the niece in front of her in shock and gritted her teeth and said, "You are too bold. You dare to commit murder in the palace. Are you willing to die?"
Zhou Jingyi was a little scared when she thought about it now, especially when she ran into King Jing when she was escaping. Afterwards, she was so frightened that she almost flew away, but she didn't expect that Mu Yunhuan would say that she made a mistake when she fell into the lake.
She thought Mu Yunhuan was timid and fearful, and she was a little lucky, but who would have thought that her aunt could see through her at a glance.
"I know I was wrong, aunt. Fortunately, the matter has been settled. Mu Yunhuan didn't dare to tell the truth. I guess she was afraid of causing trouble, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Zhou Jingyi held Mrs. Yan's hand with a look of disapproval.
Madam Yan angrily threw her hand away and cursed: "Stupid, do you really think Mu Yunhuan is timid and afraid of getting into trouble? Do you think people in the General's Mansion are easy to mess with?
They do this just to make you relax your vigilance and think that Mu Yunhuan is easy to bully, so when you take action again, they will definitely catch you."
Zhou Jingyi blinked and looked at Mrs. Yan and said, "Aunt, are you thinking too much?"
Mrs. Yan: "..."
Such a stupid person is not favored even if she marries King Jing. It seems that she needs to choose someone else.
Mrs. Yan took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Recently, you just stay at home and don't go anywhere. If you dare to cause trouble again, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhou Jingyi shrank her neck and reluctantly said yes, and then asked: "What about respecting the princess?"
Mrs. Yan glanced at her and Zhou Jingyi was so frightened that she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She quickly stood up, bowed and left. After she left, Mrs. Yan had a cold face and a heavy gaze, feeling distracted.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the maid's voice came from outside: "Madam, the eldest princess has sent you a message, inviting you to enjoy the flowers."
Mrs. Yan raised her eyebrows and said, "Come in."
The maid opened the door and walked in, handing the post to Mrs. Yan.
After Mrs. Yan took it, she unfolded it and glanced at the content. She pondered for a while and then closed the post and said to the maid: "Go and reply to the letter and say that I will be there as promised."
"yes."
The maid bent her knees, turned around and left.
Mrs. Yan sat at the table and scanned the post again. Over the years, she and Yuan Hao had always taken the eldest princess route in private meetings, so this post must not have been meant by the eldest princess, but by the current majesty.
Thinking of His Majesty's promise, Mrs. Yan felt a little excited in her heart.
She married Yan Qin with great joy, but this man already had someone else in his heart. She still remembered that the drunk man on their wedding night called another woman's name.
