In the summer resort, Mother Ma greeted little Duan with a smile on her face.
"The princess went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager and said she would come back tomorrow."
"There are mountains outside and water in the village. It's a good place. When the princess comes, let her tell you about it."
"You can live here with peace of mind, for ten days and a half."
"Only staying for three or five days? Oh no, you can't do that. Your Majesty will misunderstand that the manpower in the village is not good enough, and you won't be able to stay here."
Mother Ma told her everything that Lin Yunyan told her, coaxing little Duan to smile, and then she left the room and went to find Mrs. Chen.
It's rare for Mrs. Chen to not have to worry about her husband, so she and her sister-in-law have added Lin Yunfang, who is good at this, so they can play horse games at the same table.
Lin Yunjing sat on the edge, embroidering her red hijab.
Mrs. Chen had just won a game and was in a good mood. When she saw Grandma Ma coming in with a sullen face, she couldn't help but be startled.
"Is something going on in the house?" she asked, "Is Yun Yan sick?"
Mother Ma didn't answer, but looked here and there.
Mrs. Chen quickly turned away all the people serving her.
The fourth lady Yuan and Mrs. Huang exchanged glances. Did they also avoid it?
Aunt Ma stepped forward and said, "Listen, ladies, it's the third girl..."
Lin Yunfang said "Hey" and when Mrs. Chen looked at her, she reluctantly got up and went out.
Mother Ma said: "Something happened to the third son of Duke Xu, and the scandal became known to everyone."
Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Chen suddenly turned their heads to look at the mother and daughter of the second wife.
Huang, who had moved to sit next to her daughter, suddenly held Lin Yunjing's hand.
The princess promised that Yun Jing had a way to disrupt the adulterous marriage. Could it be that the princess took action?
Lin Yunjing's heart was also pounding.
What Lin Yunyan said before going up the mountain was deeply remembered in her mind: she would not let her grandma see foreigners, and she would not let her come back home.
She looked at her two aunts.
Mother Ma's arrival must have been ordered by Yun Yan, so she would actively win over her aunts and insist on keeping her grandmother isolated from the rest of the world in Zhuangzi.
Even though she was prepared in her heart, Lin Yunjing was still so shocked that she could hardly breathe after listening to Mother Ma finish explaining the whole story.
Outer room? Young husband? Widow?
Except for the widow who was not present, there were five people who crowded into the West Street to fight last night?
Mother and the others are so busy that even one table cannot seat five people!
No, no, no, this is not a matter of a few people, but she simply cannot accept that her husband is such a dirty person!
"Yun, Yun Jing..." Huang's voice trembled so much that if she hadn't been sitting down, she might have been unable to stand and would have fallen down.
Mrs. Chen couldn't care about digestion and was busy trying to comfort Mrs. Huang.
No one in the family knows how much the second sister-in-law values this marriage!
Unexpectedly, Gao Pan’s uncle actually...
Oops, she doesn’t even know how to persuade her sister-in-law.
Mrs. Yuan was also stunned, but when she heard a pop, Lin Yunjing knelt down in front of them.
"I won't marry him!" Lin Yunjing gritted her teeth, "Mom, aunt, I won't marry that kind of person. If I do, it won't be a shame for me, and the face of our sincere family will be lost!"
p>
Yuan was excited and rushed to help her.
Lin Yunjing did not get up and continued: "Not only did his family do scandalous things, but they also came to the door early in the morning to make grandma bow her head. If we hadn't happened to be not at home, we would have made them plot.
I think they will definitely come here. When the time comes, please don’t let anyone open the door. We won’t see visitors.
If my grandmother finds out, she will..."
When Ms. Chen heard this, she became anxious: "The old lady is nice, but she doesn't love you, so why would she let you marry her like this?"
"Grandma can't do it, but grandma is uncomfortable," Lin Yunjing sniffed, "Grandma would rather embarrass herself than make me feel wronged, but how can I be willing to make grandma uncomfortable? Yun Yan has already gone to the palace to beg the Queen Mother, so we will
Wait for the queen to decide."
When Ma Ma heard this, she immediately beat the drum: "Madams, don't worry, the princess will definitely be able to ask for the grace of the empress. The empress will not be happy with someone as shameless as Su San! The eldest lady is very reasonable. Our old lady
Her body is in serious condition, let her rest more."
Huang also stood up tremblingly.
Yun Jing didn't say that she had made an agreement with the princess, so she just pretended to be ignorant.
She is just afraid, extremely afraid.
If Yun Jing hadn't discussed it with the princess in a down-to-earth manner, the princess would not have delayed the two families from discussing the marriage.
If Su Ke was not a bastard, the princess would not have been able to make something out of thin air and expose the scandal.
If Su Ke's true identity had not been discovered before the marriage, would the matter have been resolved after Yun Jing entered Duke Xu's mansion?
Breaking off the engagement and getting divorced are two different things!
Yun Jing has been stuck in such a quagmire all her life...
Thinking of the tragic situation her daughter would face, Mrs. Huang shed tears: "Three younger siblings, fourth younger siblings, I beg you too, I can't say anything to let Yun Jing marry her. Keep this matter secret from the old lady for now. Let's see."
Let’s see what the palace says.”
Having said this, how can there be any reason not to agree?
In the afternoon, Mrs. Xu Guogong came up the mountain.
This time, she was completely rejected.
It just so happens that this is the Empress Dowager's Zhuangzi. The gatekeepers and those who refuse are all people from Zhuangzi, and none of them are named Lin.
She couldn't have a seizure or break through, so she could only go back to the city in despair.
On the other hand, Prince Xu Guogong went to Shuntian Mansion in person and made some progress.
The two waiters were probably not busy enough. When Prince Su asked a question, they answered, detailing the figure and appearance of the steward who came last night.
The painter drew some portraits based on their confessions.
The Su family took the portrait and went to West Street to inquire, as if they would not stop until they turned the person over.
Xu Guogong thought about it and couldn't let go of Su Ke, so he ordered two people to watch outside Uncle Chengyi's house. He couldn't let this brat escape.
Su Ke could not escape, so he could only bask in the sun from morning to night, and was fed some water by the boy.
Even Duke Xu couldn't escape.
At the fourth watch, he walked towards the ground with heavy steps.
Ordinarily, the censors were in trouble yesterday, so today will be easier than yesterday...
Until the old censors made three mistakes in a row, Xu Guogong's luck was gone.
He stood in the center of the hall, being looked at by all the officials of the court, and was scolded bloody by the loud-voiced old censors.
In the queue, Xu Jian raised his eyes, his emotionless gaze passed over Xu Guogong, and then he looked back slowly.
He could see the dissatisfaction that Duke Xu was trying to hide, and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Having said that, the old censor at the head didn't mean to make things difficult.
It was obvious that the old man went to bed too early the night before and had no idea what happened during the night. He didn’t hear about it until he went to court the next day, so he didn’t have time to write a scolding statement.
I just made up for it today.
What's worse is that Xu Guogong's mansion also added a new topic.
Yesterday I went to Uncle Chengyi's Mansion to apologize early in the morning. I didn't see the old lady, but I provoked Lin Yunyan. All the dirty thoughts underneath were exposed by the little princess.
I heard that the parents and son who were traveling in a carriage were surprised that they did not get any advantage from Lin Yunyan.
Tsk!
After the old censor finished scolding, others followed him.
Yesterday, when Xu Guo announced a holiday, they couldn't even scold him vigorously. But it's different today. The person involved is here, so why don't you just do it in a pompous manner?
Seeing the emperor's brows getting tighter and tighter, Xu Guogong knelt down in fear.
Xu Jian couldn't help but laugh, writing "so happy" on her face.
