The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 23 He Abandoned Her For That Woman Again

It began to rain outside again, at first it was pattering, and after a while the rain became stronger and hit the cabin with a crackling sound.

There was constant rain outside the cabin, and there was also some cloud and rain inside the cabin.

Afterwards, the two hugged each other and lay down together.

Hearing the sound of the rain outside, Li Ling said to Jing Shu, "It's raining so hard, you won't be exposed to the rain when you go back, why don't you spend the night here today."

On such a rainy night, the newlyweds will sleep together in a boat, which is naturally not interesting.

Jing Shu agreed, and buried her head in Li Ling's arms and fell asleep steadily.

The night was getting dark, and the two of them were sleeping soundly, when they suddenly heard someone calling urgently from outside: "Master, Master, are you inside?"

It was Liang Jin's voice.

Li Ling's ears were sharp and he got up quickly.

Jing Shu was also woken up, and couldn't help asking: "It's so late, what happened to Liang Jinxun?"

While getting dressed, Li Ling replied, "Something must have gone wrong. You can stay here. I'll go out and have a look."

With that said, Li Ling was already fully dressed, and was about to go out in big strides.

Jing Shu hurriedly got off the ground, handed him the umbrella, and said, "It's raining hard outside, you take it with you."

Li Ling took the umbrella and said, "I'll come as soon as I go, you can go back and rest first."

Jing Shu sat on the couch and waited for a long time but did not see Li Ling coming back. She couldn't rest assured and was about to go out to look for him when she heard the cabin door creak.

A woman in a coir raincoat came in.

The woman took off the rain capes, and Jing Shu saw clearly that it was the boat woman.

When the boat lady saw Jing Shu, she greeted her with a smile.

Jingshu asked: "Why is mother-in-law here?"

The boat lady replied: "Master Liang came to look for the son, and it was the old man who brought him here on a boat."

Jing Shu looked out and asked, "Where is the eldest son? Do you know what is the urgent matter for Mr. Liang to find him?"

The boat lady wiped the rainwater from the old face with her sleeve, and replied: "The son followed Mr. Liang in the boat and left first."

Li Ling is gone?

The boat lady went on to say: "Something happened in the palace, the son rushed over there in a hurry."

Something happened in the palace?
Jing Shu hurriedly asked: "Mother-in-law, do you know what happened in the palace?"

The boat lady replied respectfully: "The old man is only in a trance, listening to Mr. Liang, it seems that the nine princesses in the palace have been poisoned."

Sure enough, it was Qingluan again!

Jingshu's heart sank all of a sudden, but Youyou asked unwillingly: "Mother-in-law heard it right, is the ninth princess poisoned? She is a princess, and she has a special person to take care of her every day. How can she be poisoned?" ?”

The boat woman replied with a smile: "I don't know the details of the situation, I just heard what Mr. Liang said." After a pause, she continued: "I have also stayed in the palace for many years, and these things are also very important. Not unusual."

In the harem, there are treacherous turmoil, intrigues, and rape and frame-up are common occurrences, but Qingluan is just a princess, who would harm her?

Jing Shu asked sullenly: "Did the Master leave any words when he left?"

The mother-in-law replied: "The son of the world ordered the old man to take care of the wife, and said that he would wait for the rain to stop tomorrow before sending the lady ashore."

Jing Shu said lightly: "I see, you go down and rest."

The old woman had no intention of leaving, she stepped forward and said flatteringly: "Leave Madam here alone, I don't feel at ease, let me stay and accompany Madam to relieve boredom."

As the distance got closer, Jing Shu could smell the fishy smell of water on her body. She endured her nausea and replied, "I'm not afraid of the dark. It's late at night now, so go to sleep too."

The mother-in-law saw that Jing Shu insisted on chasing her away, so she reluctantly left.

Jing Shu sat on the couch blankly, feeling empty in her heart.

In the room there is still the charming atmosphere after the love.A moment ago, they were lingering in their sworn love, but in a blink of an eye he left her behind again for that woman.

Not even a word of farewell.

Accompanied by the rumbling thunder, the rain outside became heavier and heavier.

Thunder, heavy rain, such a frightening night, she thought of her husband desperately rushing to another woman.

Her heart throbbed.

Jing Shu lay on her back on the bed, trying her best to hold back her tears, but the more she endured, the more unsatisfied the tears flowed out.

Tick-tock, the pillow wet a large area.

In a daze, Jing Shu vaguely heard that the cabin door was opened again, Jing Shu sat up suddenly, saw a dark shadow coming in dimly, she was so frightened that her heart was pounding, and she boldly asked: " who is it?"

"Ma'am, don't be afraid, it's an old man."

It's that boat lady again.

"It's so late, what's the matter?" Jing Shu quickly tried to wipe away the tears on her face and asked.

The boat lady leaned forward, carefully opened the gauze curtain, looked at Jing Shu who was still sitting on the couch, and said: "There is thunder outside, I am worried that you will be afraid."

With that said, she sat down on the side of the couch.

Jing Shu didn't expect that the woman would go to her couch by herself, and smelled the disgusting smell coming from her body. She felt very unhappy, and said with a wooden face: "I'm not afraid of thunder, mother-in-law get out."

The woman had a smile on her old face, and flattered Jing Shu: "The water vapor on the boat is heavy, and the lady is delicate and tender, but don't catch a cold. The old man boiled ginger tea for the lady all night, and the lady took advantage of it." Just drink it hot."

As she said that, the woman went down to the table and handed Jing Shu the soup that had been made overnight.

Jing Shu took it and politely thanked the mother-in-law.

For some reason, Jing Shu felt uncomfortable when she was with this woman. She said to her, "Mother-in-law, go down and rest, I'm going to sleep."

The old woman smiled at her, showing her broken old teeth, and said, "The old man will step down first." After she got up, she turned her head to stare at the soup bowl in Jingshu's hand, and said, "Madam, let me go while it's hot." Drink the tea and go to bed."

Jing Shu nodded and urged: "Mother-in-law, let's go."

After the woman left, Jing Shu put the soup bowl back, put on her clothes and locked the cabin door from the inside, and then lay back on the couch.

She closed her eyes and forced herself not to think about those things, but her heart was extremely depressed.

She simply sat up again, leaning against the soft pillow under the quilt and listening to the wind and rain outside.

In the haze, there was a creaking sound from the cabin door, as if someone had come in.

She had obviously locked the door.

Jing Shu was so startled that her hairs stood on end.Just about to bravely get up and go down to look, the curtain of the bed was suddenly lifted.

"Ah! Who?" Jing Shu exclaimed.

The man didn't expect that Jing Shu was still awake, so he shivered.
