Duanmu Fu was startled. His Majesty arranged for her, his fiancée, to be opposite the concubine's room instead of the guest room where the emperor lived. This really made her feel neglected.
It's just a moment of grievance. After all, I haven't even entered the door yet. "Thank you, father-in-law, for showing me the way."
Lao Mo led him out and sent Duanmu and his party to Yuehua Hall to rest.
Before leaving, Lao Mo said: "Your Majesty has ordered me to have an argument with Master Jin just now without knowing the truth, and I will leave your maid who squeezed Master Jin's hand to you. Your Majesty believes that Miss Duanmu will be fair."
disposed of.”
Duanmu Fu's eyes were stung, but it was true that her maid was at fault first. Your Majesty did not deal with her maid face to face, which was considered to have saved her face. She raised her hand and slapped the maid hard on the face, and then
He said to Lao Mo: "This maid was rude and hurt Sister Wenjin. It's because I failed to teach her properly. I will discipline her strictly when I get back."
"Master Jin is the old man next to you. Our family believes that the human heart is the work of the flesh. Your Majesty is a nostalgic person. Now he is tired of it. He has not kicked Master Jin out for a day. The young lady should treat Master Jin as
Harmony is what matters. The king's heart is unpredictable." Lao Mo said and walked out of the palace.
"Thank you for your advice, father-in-law." Duanmufu thought that your Majesty might still have some unresolved feelings for Wen Jin.
The maid's mouth was bleeding from the beating. She covered her face and wanted to cry in grievance, but she didn't dare to cry.
Duanmufu immediately rubbed the maid's cheek and said softly: "It hurts, I don't blame you. You did the right thing. It's just because you opened your mouth, I have to hit you. Next time, if
Wen Jin still ignores my dignity, so you should still stand up for me. We are of the same mind in the palace, my good maid."
The maid was so touched when the young lady rubbed her face tenderly, "Well, I don't blame the young lady. I am willing to suffer any injustice for the young lady."
Duanmu Fu nodded, "Don't worry, the grievance is temporary. I will help you get back the slap you received sooner or later. Before we pass through the door, we must first submit and bow our heads. Only by enduring hardship can we become the best."
"
Grandma drank two more sips of tea. Zhang Yuanpian brought the boiled medicinal soup, and she also asked Wen Jin to wait on her and drink it.
Grandma and Wen Jin chatted about family feuds and old sesame seeds rotten millet. Grandma talked most about how she was beaten and scolded by her mother-in-law and bullied by her sisters-in-law when she was young. Shen Zishu had just been born.
Shen Zishu was not given breast milk, and she was sold into the palace as a wet nurse by her mother-in-law while she was still in confinement. Her mother-in-law made her teeth itch every time she was mentioned.
Conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is an eternal topic.
Wen Jin has listened to some of the words many times, but he still listens patiently. As an old man, it is inevitable that he will remember the bitter things and think about the sweet things, and nag.
Young people should be more patient with the elderly and learn to listen.
The sorrow of having a son who wants to be raised but is not given to him is often regretful. Wen Jin misses his mother, but he will never see her. Every time he thinks about it, he can only look at the memorial tablet and miss the person, and his heart aches.
We chatted for about half the time while burning incense.
During this period, Fu Jingheng was taciturn and didn't say anything. He just glanced at Wen Jin's eyebrows from time to time. She was indeed devoted to the old man, but she didn't seem to be pretending. The closer he got to her, the less he could rationally face her as a trick.
"If grandma is feeling better, I will go to the court first."
Grandma waved her hand, "Hurry up and get busy with political affairs. It's hard for you to sit with me for such a long time when you have so many things to do."
Xue Ning knelt down for half a stick of incense. Her knees started to hurt and sore. Her whole body was trembling and she couldn't kneel anymore. She thought that if Jun Shang left, she would not be able to fall into the hands of the old immortal.
When he was done, he couldn't help but call out to Fu Jingheng in a sweet voice: "Your Majesty, my... my knees hurt so much."
Fu Jingheng hasn't spoken yet.
Grandma let out a sigh and said, "Why is my heirloom missing?"
Wen Jin was startled and her hand was firmly grasped by her grandma. She then understood what had happened and asked, "When did Baoyu disappear?"
Grandma said strangely: "I still had it before I returned to the dragon bed and fell into coma. Why is it missing now?"
Xiaolan echoed: "Did someone steal it while your old man was unconscious? There are a lot of outsiders in the Long Bedroom today. If you can't protect it, there will be thieves who are greedy for money."
Xue Ning felt that this scene was extremely familiar. She had also designed a scene of Wen Jin stealing jade before, and she felt uneasy. Is this old thing avenging the little bitch? He wrongly accused her of stealing jade!
Grandma then asked: "Who put the quilt on me just now?"
"It's Concubine Xue!" Xiaolan replied.
Grandma pointed a finger at Xue Ning's face and said in a deep voice: "This little hooves must be jealous of money and take away my family heirloom! It's really hateful! Brother, you have to keep your eyes open.
It’s hard to guard against domestic thieves.”
Fu Jingheng nodded and said, "Listen attentively."
Wen Jin understood that grandma was venting her anger for her. She also remembered the grievance that Xue Ning framed her for stealing jade. She felt angry in her heart and wanted to take revenge for a long time, so she hid beside grandma and avoided it.
Fu Jingheng's sight was that Grandma was there. He was acting affectionate with her. Of course she had avenged her old and new grudges with Xue Ning. Anyway, in front of Grandma, he would not do anything to her, and this matter was Grandma's fault.
If she came forward, she would be considered an accomplice at most.
You see, he was holding his breath and making no sound.
"Hey." Wen Jin exclaimed, "Sister Imperial Concubine, you have been fined half a year's salary by your Majesty. Money is tight, so you have the idea of taking grandma's heirloom? It would be too ugly to eat. Your Majesty also
Are your hands and feet dirty when you are here? If you are here, you will steal the jade. If you are not here, will you steal the jade seal?"
There was more interest in Fu Jingheng's eyes. Did she think that he would see her disappear when she was hiding in grandma's arms? This... look of a villain succeeding.
Xue Ning was really unjust, but she was also worried that your Majesty would doubt her integrity. What would happen if your Majesty didn't like her?
"Your Majesty, I did not steal grandma's jade. I dare not even think about stealing the jade seal. That is treason!" Xue Ning explained: "Although I helped grandma cover the quilt, it is true. But I
I just focused on taking care of grandma’s illness, and I didn’t see grandma’s precious jade.”
Fu Jingheng said slowly: "I don't know the full picture, so I can't comment."
Wen Jin was startled. She didn't expect that he was so calm, but he was actually acting on the occasion, pretending to protect her pretended thief.
Xue Ning's heart dropped for the most part, and she explained to her grandma: "Grandma, I really didn't steal the jade. I am unjustly accused!"
Grandma snorted coldly, "What do you mean?"
Wen Jin then said sternly: "Do you mean that grandma framed you for stealing jade? Grandma is the king's wet nurse, how could she easily frame a junior! Don't talk nonsense and slander grandma.
Grandma’s reputation!”
As Wen Jin spoke, he moved to Grandma's side without any eye contact with Fu Jingheng. Who cares, seize the opportunity to complain and seek revenge.
Fu Jingheng's eyes became more interested, and with a hint of smile, he watched Wen Jin exerting his power as a fox and a tiger to the extreme. She was sure that in front of grandma, he just didn't dare to offend her...
