Chapter 18 The evil hidden in the darkness

Shui Yuerong has already promised to the son of Marquis Zhongyong. Mrs. Dingguo is looking forward to Princess Ning'an coming and wants to ask her about her relationship with Prince Yan.

Princess Ning'an used to like the boy from the Fu Mansion the most, but now she has someone come to her place to deliver an invitation to the Duke of Xiang's Mansion.

Since the death of Duke Xiang and his wife, there have been no female relatives in the house, and most of the ladies like them do not send invitations to invite people.

If it weren't for Princess Ning'an, she would have almost forgotten about this bastard.

Although I don't see him often, I often hear rumors.

A few days ago, he was competing with a gentleman from a certain family to win the title of oiran.

Serious things are not done at all.

No wife would want her son to get acquainted with him.

What to do if the belt is damaged.

If it weren't for Princess Ning'an, Mrs. Dingguo would really have no intention of submitting the post.

Li Ning'an was afraid that Yan Ziqi would not go to the banquet, so he took Xing'e to the Duke of Xiang's Mansion to pick him up that day.

"If you don't ride in your own carriage, why are you rubbing against mine?"

Yan Ziqi looked at Li Ning'an who opened the curtain and walked in, sitting down without any courtesy.

"I'm afraid you said you would go, but then turned around and had someone drive the car to Zuichun Pavilion."

Li Ning'an flipped through the eight-treasure cabinet in the corner of the car, took out the pastries, placed them on the low table, and ate them by himself.

Yan Ziqi was speechless, how could he understand him so well.

He was really planning to find an excuse not to go and to stay at Zuichun Pavilion instead.

There is really no need to see those warblers and swallows.

Not as interesting as Shuang'er and Ling'er.

Among the men, no one likes to play with him.

Li Ning'an persuaded him to put aside his thoughts and follow her to Duke Dingguo's mansion obediently.

Everyone was in the car, but Yan Ziqi had no idea. He made it all the way to Duke Dingguo's mansion without any hindrance.

Many people have come to the flower hall of Duke Dingguo's mansion.

Li Ning'an wore a light blue narrow-sleeved shirt embroidered with butterflies today, paired with a dark purple high-cut skirt and a moiré belt.

Yan Ziqi was wearing a lavender round-neck robe, with a double-crane jade pendant hanging from his waist.

From the looks of it, they are a perfect match made in heaven.

Now that Yan Ziqi is here, he naturally wants to come forward to greet Mrs. Dingguo.

"I've met Duke Dingguo's wife. She is well."

"The prince is well." Mrs. Dingguo saw that he was handsome and dazzling. He should be a good husband that ladies would compete with each other.

Even if Mrs. Xiangguo is still alive, this child will not be left undisciplined and do some bad things.

Mrs. Dingguo's tone became softer, "Now that you're here, be more at ease and go over to play."

Yan Ziqi nodded in agreement.

Li Ning'an waved his hand, "I won't sit with you. We will go back to the Duke of Xiang's Mansion later."

Yan Ziqi didn't know why she was so crazy, so he decided to ignore her and was led to the waterside pavilion opposite.

Li Ning'an sat on the right side of Mrs. Dingguo. Although she was a junior, she had the dignity of a princess, so naturally no one said anything.

Mrs. Fu had brought Fu Mingying here a long time ago.

Fu Mingying obviously wanted to come forward and talk, but Mrs. Fu held her back thinking that she had been angry recently.

We still have to make this princess bow her head to please her. She just passes by helplessly and becomes even more arrogant in the future.

Fu Minglang did not come with his mother and sister. He only told them not to talk too much and to listen to Princess Ning'an in everything.

Mrs. Dingguo was talking to Princess Ning'an and saw their little moves. She deliberately placed them in the corner.

The Duke of Dingguo's mansion has always treated his concubines more than his concubines. Although there were concubines and children in the mansion, none of them left the concubines.

Even if someone like Fu Mingying is recorded in the name of her aunt, Duke Dingguo is not willing to invite her.

It is said that two generations ago, there was a lady who was tortured by her concubine and almost turned her concubine into a slave.

In the end, he killed the old marquis and supported his son to ascend to the throne, so this rule was set.

Mrs. Dingguo was a little hesitant at first, but seeing that Princess Ning'an had no objection to the position assigned to her, she thought she would let go of that position.

Even if Li Ning'an saw people from the Fu Mansion, she didn't bother to pay attention. She was here to save Shui Yuerong today.

"Madam, where is Yuerong?"

Even if you are about to get married, you always have to show up.

Mrs. Dingguo smiled and said, "This girl has become thin-skinned ever since we decided to get married."

She was afraid that her husband's family would think that she was a showy and unscrupulous woman, so she would not attend the banquet long ago.

Even if it is run by myself, I have no plans to come out.

But Li Ning'an remembered that even today, Shui Yuerong did not come out, but someone led the conversation to her.Mrs. Dingguo had to send someone to call her, but the maid came back anxiously and panicked, saying she saw a man in the lady's room.

The two of them actually... Before the maid could finish speaking, Mrs. Dingguo sent someone to cover her mouth.

The news of Shui Yuerong's affair with her foreigner spread everywhere before Li Ning'an left Dingguo's mansion.

Marquis Zhongyong broke off the engagement, Shui Yuerong committed suicide in grief and anger, and Duke Dingguo's wife suddenly aged ten years.

Li Ning'an didn't know the truth, but she knew that Shui Yuerong would definitely not do such a thing.

But she didn't know who was behind the scenes, so she told Mrs. Dingguo about it rashly, fearing that she wouldn't believe it either.

It's just that she was focused on Fu Minglang at that time and paid too much attention to Mrs. Fu and Fu Mingying, so she couldn't remember who mentioned it first.

Therefore, Li Ning'an could only ask earlier, hoping that the other party would not take action yet.

"I'm thick-skinned, so I'll go make some noise."

Li Ning'an motioned to Mrs. Ding Guogong to find a maid to lead the way.

There was a woman sitting at the same table wearing a long aqua dress. When she heard her mention Shui Yuerong, she wanted to talk to her, but she delayed it for a while.

The good show she arranged has not yet started.

But Princess Ning'an never gives anyone face.

Before, he insulted the paintings in Taishi Wen's house and devalued them as worthless.

The lady looked at the maid next to Mrs. Dingguo. At her suggestion, the maid stood up.

"Slave, please take the princess to the Seventh Lady's courtyard."

Li Ning'an nodded and followed the maid to the backyard.

Chatting continued in the flower hall, which was very lively.

On the other side of the waterside pavilion, Guo Zhou saw Yan Ziqi, snorted coldly, and said sarcastically:
"Hey, you will come to the flower viewing party."

Who doesn't know that these banquets where you enjoy flowers, eat crabs and enjoy the scenery are just for the unmarried woman and her husband to see each other.

His mother is in the flower hall, choosing her future daughter-in-law.

Yan Ziqi, who has no father or mother, also came to join in the fun.

"It's because I don't look down on Leng Shuang and wants to choose a famous lady to withdraw from the flowers."

It's because of Yan Ziqi that his butt is just right.

Yan Ziqi didn't know that he was beaten at home, but from the look on his face, he knew he still held a grudge.

It doesn't matter.

People who hate him can reach North Vietnam from here.

Guo Zhou is still not ranked.

"I haven't seen you go out for fun lately. Are you hiding at home and becoming a monk, or..."

It is self-evident that Yan Ziqi moved down a few inches.

Guo Zhou moved his legs together, causing Lang Jun who was surrounding him to endure it again and again, but still couldn't hold it back.

"Hahaha, Brother Guo, your disease needs to be cured as soon as possible."

Some of them who were not on good terms with him laughed especially loudly.

"Yan Ziqi, I'm going to fuck you..."

The rest of the curses followed Guo Zhou's fist.

Yan Ziqi reached out his hand to block it without hesitation and struggled with him.

And Li Ning'an, who followed the maid to the inner house, always felt that she was going in circles.

"Are you sure you know the way?"

When Princess Ning'an asked a question, the maid could only answer.

"This servant is from the Seventh Lady's Courtyard. Madam is busy today, so she sent her to help."

She walked slower and slower, as if she wanted to introduce the scenery in the courtyard.

Li Ning'an sensed something was wrong and gave Xing'e a look.

Xing'e didn't say anything, she just stepped forward and kicked the maid a few steps away.

"Princess...you...even if you are a princess, you cannot kill slaves at will."

The maid concealed her panic and fear. She did not expect that Princess Ning'an would kill the maids in the territory of Duke Dingguo's mansion.

Xing'e stepped on her face and said, "Who do you think you are?"

"Princess Ning'an!"

A scream accompanied by disbelief reached Li Ningan's ears.

Li Ning'an turned around and saw Fu Mingying.
