The rebirth of the poisonous girl is back
Chapter 111 The Mystery of Life Experience
Chapter 111 The Mystery of Life Experience
Because the wound on Jing Wanbai's face hadn't healed yet, Liu could only follow the old lady's instructions to arrange Jing Wanbai's birthday and the ceremony together, and didn't invite any guests, just a simple family banquet.
It's just that there are two more guests today - Concubine Shu and Gu Beiyu.
Early in the morning, Mrs. Jing led the crowd to the door to greet Concubine Shu and the third prince.
The group soon went to the Millennium Hall, where Concubine Shu was dressed in a gorgeous palace attire and sat at the head of Mrs. Jing.
Gu Beiyu, on the other hand, glanced around after he came in. He didn't see Jing Se, so he was a little absent-minded.
However, it was his casual look around that made Jing Shurao, Jing Nanqing and other daughters in the mansion who had not yet left the cabinet blushed and lowered their heads timidly.
"Grandmother, why don't you see Cousin Jingse?" Gu Beiyu finally couldn't hold back and asked.
Concubine Shu gave him a dark look, implying that he had no rules.
Gu Beiyu just smiled. He also knew that he was a bit abrupt to ask, but he had no choice. The reason why he agreed to follow his mother and concubine to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion was to meet Jing Se. Otherwise, he still had a lot of government affairs to deal with today. She would not attend such a boring banquet purely for Jing Wan Bai's birthday.
How could the old lady understand the minds of young people? She only thought that Gu Beiyu was very concerned about Jing Se, so she said cheerfully: "The third girl is the protagonist today, and the doctor Arthur is naturally going to remove her stitches early in the morning. Healed the wound."
Gu Beiyu let out an "oh" out of boredom, and then thought about it, "Since Cousin Wan Bai is in the wing room of my grandmother's yard, why don't I go and see her now?"
Jing Wanbai was not in Linglong Courtyard, but in Mrs. Jing's courtyard, so it was not too much for Gu Beiyu to visit her like this.
Mrs. Jing had no reason to refuse, and said with a smile: "You can go as long as you want, there is still some time before the banquet, you, a cousin, will go to visit in person, I think the third girl will be very happy."
Mrs. Liu thought about it, and hurriedly said: "Since the Third Highness wants to go to the West Wing, I think it's better to let Shu Rao guide you. After all, you seldom come to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, so you don't know the way."
Jing Shurao's heartbeat quickened all of a sudden, her little face was flushed red, she quietly raised the corner of her eyes to look at Gu Beiyu, seeing the handsome and gentle appearance of the other party, it was even a deer bumping wildly, and her thoughts flew nine days away.
Jing Nanqing snorted unwillingly, "Hypocritical!" The Liu family was clearly creating opportunities for Jing Shurao and Cousin Yu!
As soon as the words came out, Jing Lan, who was sitting next to her, gave her a hard look.
Jing Nanqing had never been afraid of her biological mother, Aunt Zhou, but she was only afraid of her own brother, Jing Lan.
Being stared at by him like this, Jing Nanqing stuck out her tongue resentfully, and quickly shut her mouth.
Fortunately, Jing Nanqing's voice was too low to reach everyone's ears, so this little episode was soon over.
Gu Beiyu was busy going to see Jing Se, and didn't even think about the small calculations in the hearts of these women, so he readily agreed to let Jing Shurao lead him the way.
Liu's heart was overjoyed, and she hurriedly told Jing Shurao, "Rao'er, you have to entertain the Third Highness well, don't neglect him."
Jing Shurao blushed and nodded, "Don't worry, mother."
After finishing speaking, Jing Shurao bid farewell to the old lady and concubine Shu, and then took Gu Beiyu to the west wing.
The old lady's warm pavilion is some distance away from the west wing.
Jing Shurao deliberately slowed down, restrained her heart that was about to jump out of her chest, and whispered, "Third Cousin."
Gu Beiyu didn't know why, so he looked at her, "What's wrong?"
Seeing Gu Beiyu's gentle eyes, Jing Shurao blushed again. She lowered her head slightly and asked, "Is Third Cousin in a hurry to see Third Sister?"
Gu Beiyu was slightly stunned, "So what if it is, so what if it's not?"
When Jing Shurao heard that his tone was wrong, he was worried that his third cousin would misunderstand him, so he quickly explained, "I mean, if you are not in a hurry to see third sister, I can take you to the back garden to see the best Molan, and listen to it in the morning. The maids said that the flowers bloomed today, and they were extremely beautiful, so Mo Lan must have known that her third cousin would come today, so she picked such an important day to bloom."
Gu Beiyu raised his eyebrows, "Your family still has Mo Lan?"
"Yes." Jing Shurao said: "It was my father's birthday last year, and his colleagues specially sent it."
Gu Beiyu thought for a while, "Since it's blooming today, I can't miss this great opportunity. I'll go to the West Wing Room in a while and call Cousin Jingse up, and let's go see it together."
After finishing speaking, Gu Beiyu shrank his eyes and looked at Jing Shurao with a little confusion on his face.
Jing Shurao seldom went out of the house, let alone any outsider, but at this moment, being stared at by Gu Beiyu, she blushed again.
Without waiting for her to speak, Gu Beiyu asked a little embarrassedly: "Sister, what's your name, and which room do you live in?"
With this question, a basin of cold water was poured on Jing Shurao's head like ice and snow, which instantly subsided the flush on her face.
It turned out that the third cousin didn't even know who he was.
Jing Shurao's heart was full of loss, sour and bitter.
Gu Beiyu saw her hesitate, so he stepped forward, "Since you don't want to say it, then I won't force it. The west wing is the front, right? You go back first, I can find the way myself, thank you!"
His voice was clearly as clear as ever, and there was no sign of alienation, but Jing Shurao heard it very unpleasantly.
She trotted to follow, and hurriedly explained, "No, I just didn't expect third cousin to never recognize who I am."
Gu Beiyu thought for a while, and said truthfully: "The sisters in the right minister's mansion, except for my cousin Jingse, I really don't know who you are."
This sentence immediately made Jing Shurao choke, and he couldn't find the words to answer for a long time, and his face became even more gloomy.
Immediately, Jing Shurao remembered Liu's painstaking arrangements, secretly thinking that she couldn't just admit defeat like this, she immediately put on a gentle smile, and planned to introduce herself, but Gu Beiyu didn't mean to listen at all, her footsteps became more and more Quick, it didn't take long to arrive outside the West Wing. After asking the sweeping maid about the location of Jing Wanbai's room, Gu Beiyu walked over directly.
Standing in the corridor, Jing Shurao looked at Gu Beiyu's impatient figure, and tightly clenched the silk handkerchief in his hand.
"Hey, what is Fourth Sister doing standing here alone?" A voice came from the rockery, full of mockery.
Jing Shurao turned her head and saw Jing Nanqing with a smug face, her eyebrows raised high, and she walked out with a look of gloating, "Didn't Fourth Sister send Third Cousin to see Third Sister? Why didn't you see Third Cousin?"
Jing Shurao glared at Jing Nanqing angrily, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Of course it has nothing to do with me." Jing Nanqing said with a smile: "I just happened to pass by, and then I saw some people who couldn't wait to express themselves in front of Third Cousin, who knows that Third Cousin doesn't even know who you are, Oh, I'm really worried, the fourth sister hates marriage so much, and the younger sister is worried for you when she is watching."
The word "Hate Marriage" just hit Jing Shurao's spine, and she immediately turned gloomy.
Jing Nanqing took two steps back and looked at her vigilantly, "Why, fourth sister is going to beat someone? It's true that you are a concubine, but I am also a member of the second room, and I will not interfere with your third room, if you dare Hitting me is to bully the small and oppress others with power, I will tell the old lady in a while, and I promise you will not be able to eat today."
Jing Shurao's teeth itch with hatred, "Jing Nanqing, I ask myself that I have never offended you, why do you make it difficult for me so many times?"
Jing Nanqing raised her eyebrows, "Fourth Sister's words are amazing. I just happened to pass by, so how could it be difficult for you? If it is true according to what you said, there are so many sisters in the mansion, why should I Instead of going against others, you want to go against you?"
Jing Shurao clenched her fingers tightly, "Jing Nanqing, you'd better restrain yourself. I don't care about what happened today because of your young age. If there is another time, I will never let you down!"
Jing Nanqing laughed suddenly, "Fourth Sister, I'm so scared, aren't you going to eat me?"
Jing Shurao snorted coldly, "I can't take care of you, someone will take care of you."
Jing Nanqing was stunned, seeing Jing Shurao walking away, she hurried forward to stop her, her eyes were stern, "What do you mean, you'd better explain clearly!"
Jing Shurao looked at her contemptuously, "Get out of the way!"
"No, I won't let!" Jing Nanqing stood still, "If you don't speak clearly today, I will pester you until you speak!"
Jing Shurao sneered, "Jing Nanqing, you are just a concubine from the second house, what right do you have to come and shout at me, if not for your young age, how many people in this mansion do you think are willing to let you go? In half a month, your outgoing father will bring his family back to celebrate the Spring Festival, and then, let's see what you can use to challenge your younger siblings!"
Jing Nanqing really froze.
Her father was a foreign official, and he had concubines and heirs.
Jing Nanqing has always known about this matter, but she never took it to heart. She always felt that Aunt Zhou raised her father's son Jing Lan with her own hands. Auntie is a little bit, but now listening to Jing Shurao, it seems that his father dotes on his concubine even more.
Also, my father is not in Jinling all the year round, so naturally he is no longer close to the children in the Right Prime Minister's residence.
Thinking of this, Jing Nanqing couldn't stop crying and fell down immediately.
Jing Shurao panicked, she was afraid that Jing Nanqing would frame her and slander her, she was about to say goodbye to herself, but she saw that Jing Nanqing had already wiped her tears and ran back crying.
Jing Shurao breathed a sigh of relief, she also heard from her father Jing Yuwei that her second uncle was about to bring his concubine and children back for the Spring Festival, and she never expected to be able to threaten Jing Nanqing with this.
Thinking of this, Jing Shurao slowly raised her lips. From the beginning, Nanqing always liked to fight against her. When the second uncle's concubines return with their children, let's see how arrogant Jing Nanqing is!
The previous depression caused by Gu Beiyu was swept away, Jing Shurao gathered his mind, and walked towards Jing Wanbai's room.
After several days of quiet recuperation, coupled with the powerful ointment prepared by Jing Se, Jing Wan Bai can completely remove the stitches today.
When Jing Shurao came in, Jing Se had just finished removing the stitches, Su Aoyu was anxiously waiting outside, and Gu Beiyu was sitting on the teacher's chair, drinking tea quietly.
Not long after, Jingse came out from the room.
Su Aoyu hurried up to meet her, "Arthur, how is Wan Bai?"
Jing Se smiled, "The stitches have been removed, but the scar cannot fall off for a while, and it will take some time."
Su Aoyu was overjoyed, "So, Wan Bai's wounds are all healed, right?"
"Well." Jing Se nodded, "As long as she follows the prescription I prescribed, she will take the decoction orally and apply the ointment externally, she will recover in a short time, her face will be smooth and smooth, and there will be no scars."
Su Aoyu was excited, thanked him a thousand times and hurried into the inner room to see Jing Wanbai.
Seeing Jing Shurao standing at the door, Jing Se smiled and said hello, "Why is the fourth sister here?"
Jing Shurao said: "My mother just asked me to lead the way for my third cousin, and I also wanted to come and visit my third sister, so I just dropped by."
Jing Se nodded, "Then why don't you come in and sit?"
Before Jing Shurao could speak, Gu Beiyu said, "Cousin, the fourth cousin just said that she would take us to the back garden to see the blooming of the orchids, do you want to go?"
While tidying up the medicine box, Jing Se said: "I just spent a lot of energy removing the stitches for my third sister. I want to go back and have a rest, so I won't go, but I heard that Molan blooms beautifully. Bei Yu, if you really If you like it, how about I let my fourth sister take you there? In case you miss it, you have to wait until next winter."
When Gu Beiyu heard that Jing Se wouldn't go, he immediately curled his lips, "Forget it, if you don't go, what's the point of me going by myself?"
When Jing Shurao heard Jing Se's affectionate name for Gu Beiyu, she felt very uncomfortable, her lips were tightly pressed together, and suddenly she felt that standing here was unnecessary, she turned around to leave, but Jing Se stopped her.
Jing Shurao turned around, "Big sister, what else do you want?"
Jing Se said with a smile: "Since the Third Highness wants to see Mo Lan, then I can't just disrespect him like this. The Mo Lan plant belongs to the third uncle, so let the fourth sister guide us?"
When Gu Beiyu heard that Jing Se was willing to go again, his eyes lit up immediately.
Jing Shurao saw that Gu Beiyu cheered up again, and smiled slightly, "Okay."
Jing Se asked the maid to take the medicine box back to her Muyunju, while the three of them walked towards the back garden.
Jing Shurao walked in the front, and Gu Beiyu and Jing Se walked side by side, and they walked very slowly.
The three of them were silent all the way, before Gu Beiyu said in a low voice, "Cousin, you were alright after I left at Prince Chu's mansion that day?"
Jing Se laughed, "What can I do?"
Gu Beiyu pursed his lips, "I mean, what did Master Brahma do to you?"
Jing Se gave him a helpless smile, "Don't think too much, Brahma is still a gentleman, how could he treat me like that?"
"Is he a gentleman?" Gu Beiyu couldn't believe that such words could come out of his cousin's mouth.
"That's right!" Jing Se said, "At least compared to some scumbags, Brahma is a good man."
Gu Beiyu narrowed his eyes, "Who is Cousin referring to?"
"No one." Jing Se said with a normal expression, "I'm just making an analogy." Jing Se didn't want Gu Beiyu to know what Gu did.
After getting along for this period of time, Jing Se faintly felt that Gu Beiyu had a strange feeling for him. If he knew that Gu Qian treated him like that, maybe he would turn against Gu Qian immediately.
Although Gu Beiyu has grown up with Gu Qian for a few months, he has lived under the protection of Concubine Shu since he was a child, and rarely participated in intrigues. Therefore, Gu Beiyu's mentality is not as mature as Gu Qian's. Of course, he is not as mature as Gu Qian. Such a deep thought.
According to Gu Beiyu's temperament, if he knew that Gu Gan coveted Jing Se, he would definitely lose his temper.
Gu Beiyu's face was gloomy, and he muttered in a low voice, "Cousin said Brahma is a gentleman, so what am I in your eyes?"
Jing Se smiled slightly, "In my eyes, you are naturally a cute little cousin!"
After Gu Beiyu listened, he stood still and did not leave.
Jing Se looked back at him, "Why, don't you want to see Mo Lan again?"
"Suddenly not interested." Gu Beiyu didn't look at her, and turned his gaze elsewhere.
Jing Se's eyes sparkled slightly, and she roughly guessed why Gu Beiyu reacted like this.
After walking back a few steps, Jing Se stood in front of Gu Beiyu and said, "Since you're not interested, I'll let the fourth sister turn back. I just happened to be tired and wanted to take a break so that I wouldn't be able to attend the third meeting later." My sister's birthday party."
When Gu Beiyu heard her say that she was tired, the previous depression was swept away, and replaced with a little bit of distress, "Then do you care?"
Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "I'm so tired and I still accompany you to see Mo Lan, do you think it's okay?"
Gu Beiyu blamed himself for a while, and suddenly pulled her arm and walked back, "Forget it, let's not look at it, what's so special about Molan, I missed this year, next year it will still bloom, but my cousin's body is Most importantly, if I get hurt because of me, I will blame myself for the rest of my life."
"Hey, hey, hey! Let me go." Jingse is not used to being pulled like this, she frowned, "It's not good for people to see for a while, let go quickly."
Gu Beiyu didn't let go at all, "You and I have such a relationship, so what if someone sees it, we are cousins, I care about your body, there is nothing wrong with it? Who dares to talk behind your back, I will pick it up carefully. His skin!"
Jing Se had no choice but to stand still, "That's not right, I'm arguing with you like this, if it reaches Brahma's ears, what kind of words would that be?"
When Gu Beiyu heard it, his face immediately fell down, "No one knows about today's matter except you and me. How could Prince Brahma know? Could it be that my cousin will go to him to complain?"
Jing Se was dumbfounded by Gu Beiyu's question. In fact, she said this sentence just now by accident.
I didn't realize it until now, why would I care about Fan Chen's feelings subconsciously?Does he know what's the matter?
Jing Shurao, who had been leading the way, turned around and saw Gu Beiyu holding Jing Se's arm. After a moment of surprise, she hurried forward and asked, "Big sister, what's wrong?"
Gu Beiyu said: "Cousin was tired from removing the stitches for cousin Wan Bai earlier, and couldn't see Mo Lan, so I asked her to go back and rest."
Jing Shurao hurriedly said, "Why don't you let me take eldest sister back?"
With that said, Jing Shurao calmly walked to the other side to support Jing Se.
Seeing this, Jing Se smiled and said to Gu Beiyu: "Since the fourth sister is here, I won't bother you. You go back to the Millennium Hall first, and I'll come back after the banquet, okay?"
"Okay." Gu Beiyu responded quickly, and then told Jing Shurao, "It's cold and the road is slippery, Fourth Cousin must be careful. If something goes wrong, I will ask you to ask the teacher."
Jing Shurao smiled slightly, "Third Cousin, don't worry, Shurao will send Big Sister back safely."
Jing Se looked at Jing Shurao's slightly red face, and then at Gu Beiyu, a flash of clarity flashed across his mind.
Not long after, Gu Beiyu returned to the Millennium Hall.
Jing Shurao supported Jing Se and walked slowly towards Mu Yunju.
Jing Se saw that she was silent all the way, so she found a topic to relieve her boredom, "I heard that the third aunt specially asked you to send the third highness to the west wing of the third sister?"
A flash of panic flashed in Jing Shurao's eyes, and he said hastily, "It's just that my third cousin rarely comes to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and doesn't know the way. My mother just asked me to help guide the way."
The corners of Jing Se's mouth twitched. Of course, she knew what Liu Shi was planning. Although Jing Shurao was not too bad, he was always careful under Liu Shi's training.
Jing Se didn't think that Jing Shurao was not good enough for Gu Beiyu if he had a scheming mind, but if he had a scheming mind, it proved that this person had a flexible mind.
However, Jing Se felt that these two people were not suitable.
You know, what Gu Beiyu likes is a woman like Xia Mu who can go up to the court and down the hall, who can clearly love and hate, and dare to act.
Jing Shurao's body is more of the stereotype of a lady, even if she is careful, she can't make any waves.
Withdrawing her thoughts, Jing Se smiled faintly, "Fourth sister, don't be nervous, I'm just asking casually."
Jing Shurao bit her lip, secretly thinking that the Third Highness rarely came to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, if he didn't seize the opportunity, when the eldest aunt took back the power to head the family, her marriage would have to be decided entirely by her .
"Big sister, are you familiar with Third Cousin?" Jing Shurao finally asked in a low voice, she always felt that the Third Highness treated Jing Se differently from others.
"Not very familiar." Jing Se shook his head, "It's not that you don't know, I have only returned to the residence not long ago, and I haven't seen His Highness the Third Highness a few times, so how can we say we are familiar?"
Jing Shurao tightened her fingers, and asked again: "The last time my eldest sister attended the concubine's plum appreciation banquet, I privately heard that it was a concubine selection banquet for His Highness the Third Highness, is it true?"
"Yes!" Jing Se confessed, and changed the subject, "It's a pity that the Third Highness didn't take a fancy to anyone. I guess he has too high a view."
Jing Shurao lowered her head gloomyly.
That's right, with the high status of the Third Highness, even Miss Qianjin, who is higher than himself, can't look down on him, so how can he look down on himself?
Jing Se knew what Jing Shurao was thinking, so she didn't point it out, and asked with a smile: "Fourth sister is also interested in the marriage of His Highness the Third?"
Jing Shurao was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and shook his head violently, "I'm just curious, after all, my grandmother came back early for the Plum Blossom Banquet that day, but she didn't say anything, so we don't know what happened at the banquet. "
Jing Se's eyes moved, Jing Shurao's words were testing her, hoping to hear the details about the plum appreciation banquet from her mouth.
With a low smile, Jing Se said: "I also left the banquet with my grandmother. Later, when I met Brahma, I went to the Chu Palace to check his pulse. I didn't know what happened at the banquet, but since my grandmother didn't say anything, we also We can't ask, what a shrewd person grandma is, if she finds out that we have such thoughts, no one will have a good fruit to eat."
Jing Se would like to warn Jing Shurao with these words. If she is smart, she should understand the pros and cons.
"Big sister is right." Jing Shurao sweated secretly, thinking that Jing Se is indeed an extremely smart person, and her little thoughts are totally invisible in front of her.
After sending Jing Se back to Muyunju, Jing Shurao went back.
After Jing Se went in, she lay down on the soft couch and rested for a while, and didn't come out until the banquet started after changing her clothes.
Today is Jing Wanbai's birthday banquet and the Jiji ceremony. Concubine Shu, as the official guest, personally added the Jiji for her. Jing Wanbai's face was covered with a light veil, and she was wearing clothes and shoes. She looked so graceful and graceful like walking in a painting Come out the fairy.
Jing Se sat on the auditorium, looked at Jing Wan Bai, her lips raised slightly, this time, once Jing Wan Bai recovers, she will be more radiant than before, and will attract Gu Gan's attention even more.
At that time, Jing Wan Bai will have the only chance to turn around in her life: from the crown prince's side concubine to the main concubine again.
After Jing Wan Bai turned over, it was time for her Jing Se and Gu Gan to officially open the battle line.
At that time, all those who have betrayed her in the past and present will not even try to escape!
After the gift was completed, everyone began to give gifts.
Concubine Shu presented a set of crabapple travertine stone and banana leaf tea set, a set of five phoenix chaoyang golden silk bead head face, a pair of silver inlaid red beads and white flower bracelets, a pair of hollowed out beads inlaid with green glass rhinestone armlets, and a Hangzhou specialty royal Two bolts of tribute twill Ning silk.
Mrs. Jing presented seven gold hairpins with hanging silver tassels and emeralds, gold earrings with emerald orchid pins, a bronze mirror with a tortoiseshell cloud pattern hanging with red hairpins and eight-treasure prismatic flowers, and a jade pendant with dotted emerald double knots and inlaid beads.
Other than that, the gifts from other people were not as valuable as Concubine Shu and Mrs. Jing, but they were not too shabby either.
Jingse was the last one to give gifts.
She was holding a square brocade box with a dark purple pattern in her hand, one foot square, it didn't seem like it could hold much, but Jing Wan Bai just couldn't wait to know what Jing Se would give her.
Although she doesn't dare to challenge Jing Se now, the last time when she was released from prison Jing Se deliberately humiliated her with ruby and South Sea pearl earrings, Jing Wan Bai still remembers it in her heart, so Jing Wan Bai's heart at this moment She struggled a little, and she was worried that Jingse would repeat the same trick.
Su Aoyu saw Jing Wanbai's abnormality, and quickly gave her a secret look.
Jing Wan Bai took a deep breath, calmed down, forced a smile and asked, "Can you let me guess what Eldest Sister gave me?"
Jing Se smiled, "Then guess what's in it?"
Jing Wan Bai pretended to think deeply, and then insisted, "There are jewelry inside."
Jing Se shook her head, "No."
Jing Wan Bai was confused, if it wasn't jewelry, what else could Jing Se give her?
The corners of Gu Beiyu's lips twitched, "The third cousin hasn't recovered yet. Based on my cousin's superb medical skills and delicate thoughts, I must have given you a cream for beautiful skin."
After Gu Beiyu finished speaking, he turned his eyes to look at Jing Se, with a gentle smile on his brows, "Cousin, am I right?"
Jing Wan Bai opened his mouth wide and looked at Jing Se in disbelief.
When everyone heard this, they became curious.
Jing Se didn't hold back, and opened it directly in front of everyone. There was indeed a small glass bottle inside. The bottle was filled with a dark blue translucent liquid, which made the glass bottle look like finely carved emeralds. Attract attention.
Jing Wan Bai picked up the glass bottle, couldn't put it down, and asked Jing Se in surprise, "Eldest sister, what is this?"
Jing Se smiled, "The Third Highness is right, this is what can make your skin beautiful, more radiant than before, and more beautiful."
Jing Wan Bai exclaimed, and suddenly felt that the gifts given by other people had turned into dust, and only Jing Se's gift was unique in the world and made her heart surge.
After Jing Shurao heard this, she became envious in her heart. If she can also get such a bottle of food to make herself more beautiful, then when she attends banquets with her mother, she will definitely attract the attention of the wives of the aristocratic family. It is not easy to find a husband and son-in-law who is of equal family and looks.
Thinking of this, Jing Shurao pursed her lips, looked at Jing Se in the dark, and thought about leaving the table for a while, she must find a chance to sit in Mu Yunju, and by the way, get some words from the elder sister, to see if she can also ask for a favor bottle to use.
Jing Se prepared this thing, not to mention Jing Shurao, even Concubine Shu was a little moved. You must know that women in the palace want to be honored and favored forever. Brain alone is useless, and they have to be young and old to be firmly established. Capture the heart of the emperor.
Concubine Shu thought so.
But as an elder, she didn't have the nerve to speak in front of everyone in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but she just smiled and said, "Girl Se is such a treasure, you can make such a concoction, and it's almost as fast as the Imperial Hospital The great doctors."
Jing Se smiled, "The third younger sister has a marriage contract with His Royal Highness, her future is related to the lifeline of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. As an older sister, I should do my best to pave the way for her. For example, in the current situation, if the third younger sister is in a long-term If it doesn't heal, it will inevitably be criticized by the royal family, and it will be bad if the marriage contract is damaged at that time. Therefore, I spent several days mixing this small bottle of stuff, so that the third sister can recover sooner and marry into the royal family as the right minister. The government wins glory."
When Jing Yuhuan heard this, he smiled gratifiedly, "Arthur still cares."
Jing Se smiled back, "Father, this is my job."
Mrs. Jing also said: "This gift from Arthur must be the most sincere." After a pause, he added, "Of course, the gift from Concubine Shu is the most expensive, and those are all items from the palace. , Wan Bai must be treasured carefully, don't lose or break it to disappoint your mother's wishes."
Jing Wan Bai recovered from the surprise, and bowed his knees, "Wan Bai thanked Empress Shu and grandmother."
Turning around, she saluted Jing Se again, "My sister thanked me."
Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "There is no need to thank you, as long as you understand that I have done my best to heal you."
When Jing Se said this, Jing Wan Bai immediately remembered that she scolded Jing Se at Pomegranate that night for deliberately delaying time and deliberately refusing to heal her. After staying in Gu for so many years, he is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also knowledgeable and reasonable, and has a broad mind. In the past, my sister was ignorant and said some annoying things. From now on, I hope that there will be a lot of elder sisters who will not care about me."
The corners of Jing Se's lips raised slightly, how could she remember that Jing Wan Bai used to say that she was a wild girl who grew up in the countryside and didn't know how to be polite?
With a hearty smile, Jing Se said: "My sister is serious. I don't remember what you said before. After all, I am my sister. Who would take those words that are impatient and careless? Since you are so capable Sincerity, then we will still be good sisters from now on."
Jing Wan Bai showed a standard smile, and the eyes that were exposed outside the veil rolled, "Thank you, big sister, for your understanding."
Jing Nanqing felt her teeth itch. Originally, she wanted to sit and wait for Jing Se and Jing Wan Bai to fight, and at the end the heroic scene where both were bloodied and wounded, she never thought that these two people would take advantage of this day to make peace, Jing Wan Bai She will become more beautiful in the future, so won't no one see her as a concubine forever?
Thinking of these, Jing Nanqing was filled with unwillingness.Recalling what Jing Shurao said before, Jing Nanqing's thoughts changed, and she secretly thought that when her father came back, she must find a way to get Aunt Zhou to be righted by him, otherwise, she would not be able to be a prostitute in this life, and she would be dead. I won't rest in peace either!
After the banquet was over, Concubine Shu stayed in the Millennium Hall to talk to Mrs. Jing, accompanied by Su Aoyu and Mrs. Liu, and Gu Beiyu followed Jing Yuhuan to the front yard to hang out with Jing Mingyuan, Jing Lan, and Jing Yi. The rest of the people went back to the courtyard.
Not long after Jing Se returned to Muyun Residence, Jing Shurao really came.
Jing Se wasn't surprised at all, she didn't want to entertain anyone today, so she didn't want to turn the corner politely, so she simply asked, "Did the fourth sister come here for the jade muscle dew?"
Jing Shurao didn't expect Jing Se to see through her own thoughts at a glance, she immediately felt a little at a loss, twisted the silk handkerchief and said, "Elder Sister, is there any leftover jade muscle lotion you prepared for Third Sister?"
Jing Se smiled lightly, "No."
Jing Shurao's complexion darkened for a while, and he murmured, "I see, that's really a pity."
Jing Se chuckled, "What a pity, that kind of thing is useless to you."
"How come..." Jing Shurao was taken aback, somewhat disbelieving.
Jing Se said bluntly, "Jade Muscle Lotion is only useful for people with scars on the skin. If the fourth sister wants to, you can also disfigure yourself first, and then use that kind of thing."
Jing Shurao shuddered, and then remembered that Jing Se had said in the Millennium Hall that Jing Wanbai would be more radiant and charming than before with the use of Jade Muscle Lotion. Jing Shurao was a little moved. Is it more beautiful than before if I use the Jade Skin Lotion prepared by my elder sister?
Jing Se easily saw through her mind and reminded: "However, such things as jade muscle dew are not easy to come by. Leaving aside the complicated preparation process, just a few of the precious medicinal materials will cost a lot of money. The most important thing is that there are two kinds of medicinal materials, even if you have money, you can't buy them. The reason why I have exhausted my painstaking efforts to prepare them is just to give the third sister a gift that makes her happy. If the fourth sister wants to Yes, I probably don't have so much money to spend for you."
Jing Shurao originally wanted to say that she could pay for it, but when Jing Se said that there were two kinds of medicinal materials that money could not buy, she was immediately discouraged.
After sending Jing Shurao away, Jingse entered the room, Yingluo brought dessert up, and whispered, "Miss Biao, Sister Qinger is back."
Jing Se's eyes moved, "Let her come to see me."
Yingluo nodded, "She just arrived, she is packing things in the room, and she will be here in a while."
Jing se nodded and waited patiently.
Not long after, Qing'er came in, greeted Jing Se first, and then stood aside, Jing Se retreated from Yingluo, looked at Qing'er, and asked, "Did you gain anything from visiting Pomegranate's hometown this time?"
Qing'er hesitated and said, "I don't know if this is a harvest or not."
Jing Se signaled, "Tell me first."
Qing'er said: "My servant asked the old people in the village, and the old people told me that before the family of Pomegranate Father and Pomegranate Mother were very fond of gambling, he owed a big debt, and then Pomegranate Mother came to their village, somehow She fell in love with Pomegranate's father, and not long after, the two married hastily. Pomegranate's mother was still rich, and she helped Pomegranate's father pay off all the debts. Later, Pomegranate's father gradually quit gambling, and the two lived a happy life It was quite fulfilling. When Pomegranate Lady gave birth to the pomegranate, it was less than a month old. The Pomegranate Lady said that the pomegranate was premature, but then some unpleasant rumors gradually spread in the village, saying that the pomegranate was not at all under the month. It’s not that big, after all, it’s just that Pomegranate’s mother was pregnant with Pomegranate before marrying Pomegranate’s father.”
"Since then, Pomegranate's father has been drinking heavily, beating and scolding Pomegranate's mother every three days, even the little Pomegranate, and Pomegranate's mother can't get sick, and the family's situation is getting worse day by day. Pomegranate's father has no choice but to She sold the pomegranate to a toothmaid and worked as a maid for a big family in the town for two years. After that family fell into decline, Pomegranate finally returned home. Only then did she find out that her mother had died of illness and her father was living like a beggar. Originally, I wanted to support that family by myself, but Shiliu's father still didn't give up and sold her again, so she came to our house several times."
After hearing this, Jing Se fell into silence.
Qing'er asked softly: "Miss, do you think there is something strange here?"
"There should be." Jing Se said: "If Pomegranate's mother was pregnant with Pomegranate early in the morning before marrying Pomegranate's father, then whose child is Pomegranate?"
Qing'er shook her head, "I don't know about this... I don't know."
Jing Se meditated for a moment, "You used to stay with Su's side for a long time, do you know if there are any people in this mansion who were kicked out like my aunt?"
Qing'er shook her head again, "Master, there are only two aunts in total, Aunt Luo, Aunt Tao, and there are no other aunts. Could it be that the eldest miss suspects that Pomegranate is the aunt in the house, and she was kicked out due to an accident? "
Jing Se nodded, "It's not impossible, but from what I heard from you, what my father said about these two aunts seems unlikely. Could it be that father had a woman outside, but he couldn't bring them back?"
"Shouldn't it?" Qing'er frowned, "I heard that the Elder hardly ever travels far, the furthest time was when I went to the south with my late wife to provide disaster relief, but that time my late wife unfortunately contracted an epidemic and died. Well, even if the Elder Master has no conscience, it is impossible to find other women to have sex at such a critical point? Otherwise, it would be a crime!"
Jingse frowned even deeper, "You're right, but the age of Pomegranate just coincides with the year when father's disaster relief. Could it be a coincidence?"
Qing'er choked suddenly.
Jing Se pursed her lips tightly. If Pomegranate was really Jing Yuhuan's daughter born to another woman during the disaster relief year, it means that Su Leyao's death was not that simple, and Jing Se must use Pomegranate to punish her severely. Jing Yuhuan said something.
After a long time, Qing'er asked in a low voice: "Miss, what shall we do next?"
Jing Se said: "Don't startle the snake, now that it is confirmed that Pomegranate's life experience is likely to be related to Jing Yuhuan, then it is not a coincidence that this woman will be transferred to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, as long as she has premeditated, she will definitely do something, let's first Wait and see what happens, and see what she will do next."
Qing'er nodded, "The servant understands."
*
Jing Wanbai has been smearing the Jade Muscle Lotion sent by Jing Se on his face every day since the Jiji ceremony. Wan Bai was extremely satisfied, even the maids around her felt from the bottom of their hearts that Miss San was more beautiful than before.
Every time Jing Wan Bai went to pay his respects, even if he was wearing a veil, the maids who passed by would stop to watch and admire him.
Su Aoyu was even more overjoyed. For her now, being in charge of the family is far less important than her daughter's beauty. Once she has beauty, it will not be easy to seduce the prince in the future.
Su Aoyu often took Jing Wanbai's hand, and told her to guard against arrogance and impetuosity from now on, and always treat herself as the mother of the country in her heart, no matter in front of or behind her, she must show superior dignity and demeanor.
After the disfigurement incident, Jing Wanbai gradually became obedient. She took everything Su Aoyu said to heart. Therefore, not only did everyone in the family think that Jing Wanbai had become more beautiful, but also her temperament had changed. He will easily get angry and beat and scold the servant girl, let alone haggling with others, the pair of beautiful eyes outside the veil are always full of tenderness, even a woman can't help but be attracted by her beauty when she sees her.
Jing Wanbai has also come to Muyunju several times to thank Jing Se for the bottle of Jade Muscle Lotion. Jing Se never reaches out and doesn't hit smiling faces. Every time, she receives Jing Wan Bai in a decent way, and reminds her to pay attention which places.
Qing'er has always been aware of Jing Se's dark nature, so although she doesn't know the secret of that bottle of Jade Muscle Lotion, she firmly believes in her heart that the eldest lady would never be so kind to make Jing Wan Bai so beautiful, maybe Jing Wan Bai Wan Bai can't jump around for a few days at all.
Therefore, Qing'er didn't have any feelings about this matter.
On the contrary, Yingluo, every time she saw Jing Wanbai was more beautiful than before, she scolded secretly every time she saw it, she really didn't understand why Miss Biao wanted to help Jing Wanbai, a hypocritical woman like Jing Wanbai, sometimes she was really hurt I couldn't stop, so I went to Qing'er to vent, but Qing'er always laughed it off and comforted her by saying that the young lady is a kind-hearted person, and that she can help Jing Wanbai regardless of the past, which shows that the young lady has a broad mind.
After hearing Qing'er's words, Yingluo felt even more troubled.
Over time, Yingluo also got used to it, but she never liked Jing Wanbai, as soon as Jing Wanbai came over, she would not stay in the Nuan Pavilion, but go to another place, and let Qing'er take care of her alone.
Jing Se is well aware of Yingluo's protective personality, which is clear about what she loves and what hates, so she won't say anything about her, and lets her go.
*
Time flies, and soon it is the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, only five days away from the New Year's Eve.
This is the last time Jingse went to Chu Palace this year. When the carriage was halfway there, a rider suddenly came in front of him. The speed was as fast as the wind, and he was about to collide with Jingse's carriage.
The driver's face turned pale with fright, and the horse raised its hooves and neighed in terror.
The carriage leaned back because of the hooves of the horse, and Jing Se and Yingluo fell backwards together, Yingluo turned pale with shock, "Miss Biao, grab the servant!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to grab the window sill, dug her five fingers into the groove of the window sill, and finally stabilized herself.
Jing Se was thinking about something at first, but she didn't expect such an accident to happen. She quickly grabbed Yingluo's arm so as not to let herself sway with the shaking of the carriage.
The man on the horse had no time to stop, and was about to charge up with only a foot away.
Jing Se lifted the curtain to see this scene, and cried out in her heart that it was not good, for a person like her who has no martial arts at all, she couldn't avoid it.
When he was anxious, a blue shadow suddenly flew in the void, piercing the gray sky as fast as lightning, with such force as to smash a bamboo. With his profound internal strength and precise foot power, he kicked the main artery of the horse's neck with lightning speed, causing the horse to There was a moment of hesitation in the pain, taking this opportunity, the young man jumped up, sat on the horse's back accurately, snatched the rein from the owner of the horse, and pulled it up fiercely, so that the horse could barely stand on both sides of Jing Se's carriage. A foot away, he jumped up as if he had grown wings, flew over the roof of the carriage, and landed firmly in a blink of an eye.
Such a bold but precise emergency rescue method can only be achieved by people with extremely advanced martial arts.
The man on the horseback was frightened to death, his face was pale, and he completely forgot to react.
Yingluo's face was even paler, still in shock.
On the contrary, Jingse's expression was normal, she lifted the curtain, and clearly saw the young man who rescued them.
The other party was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, holding a landscape painting folding fan in his hand. It was clearly the gloomy sky of the twelfth lunar month, but it seemed that spring was radiant because of his arrival, and he was in the backlight, facing Jingse's side It seemed that there was a slight smile on the corners of her delicate lips.
Out of politeness, Jing Se got out of the carriage and knelt to thank him, but her eyes paused on the young man's face, and thoughts flashed across her eyes.
"Thank you, Young Hero, for your rescue."
The young man raised Jing Se's chin with a folding fan, and praised, "What a beautiful woman who is out of the dust, if you want to thank me, how about a promise with your body?"
Jing Se smiled slightly, "Young Xia fell in love with me at first sight?"
The young man raised his lips obliquely, "Yes." After finishing speaking, his indistinguishable and delicate face approached Jing Se with a flirtatious smile, "However, I prefer love over time."
Jing Se's eyes flickered, but she was not annoyed, she always had a smile on her face.
Fan Yue's anxious voice suddenly came from not far away, "Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
The young man suddenly turned his head, fixed his gaze on Fan Yue's face, then retracted his gaze in an instant, and raised his eyebrows at Jing Se, "Beauty, I remember what you said, I want to repay my young master's life-saving grace with my body. Everyone calls me 'Seven Lords', I have to say goodbye today, and when I am free some other day, I will bring a betrothal gift to your house to propose marriage."
O(∩_∩)O haha~ important characters appear
(End of this chapter)
Because the wound on Jing Wanbai's face hadn't healed yet, Liu could only follow the old lady's instructions to arrange Jing Wanbai's birthday and the ceremony together, and didn't invite any guests, just a simple family banquet.
It's just that there are two more guests today - Concubine Shu and Gu Beiyu.
Early in the morning, Mrs. Jing led the crowd to the door to greet Concubine Shu and the third prince.
The group soon went to the Millennium Hall, where Concubine Shu was dressed in a gorgeous palace attire and sat at the head of Mrs. Jing.
Gu Beiyu, on the other hand, glanced around after he came in. He didn't see Jing Se, so he was a little absent-minded.
However, it was his casual look around that made Jing Shurao, Jing Nanqing and other daughters in the mansion who had not yet left the cabinet blushed and lowered their heads timidly.
"Grandmother, why don't you see Cousin Jingse?" Gu Beiyu finally couldn't hold back and asked.
Concubine Shu gave him a dark look, implying that he had no rules.
Gu Beiyu just smiled. He also knew that he was a bit abrupt to ask, but he had no choice. The reason why he agreed to follow his mother and concubine to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion was to meet Jing Se. Otherwise, he still had a lot of government affairs to deal with today. She would not attend such a boring banquet purely for Jing Wan Bai's birthday.
How could the old lady understand the minds of young people? She only thought that Gu Beiyu was very concerned about Jing Se, so she said cheerfully: "The third girl is the protagonist today, and the doctor Arthur is naturally going to remove her stitches early in the morning. Healed the wound."
Gu Beiyu let out an "oh" out of boredom, and then thought about it, "Since Cousin Wan Bai is in the wing room of my grandmother's yard, why don't I go and see her now?"
Jing Wanbai was not in Linglong Courtyard, but in Mrs. Jing's courtyard, so it was not too much for Gu Beiyu to visit her like this.
Mrs. Jing had no reason to refuse, and said with a smile: "You can go as long as you want, there is still some time before the banquet, you, a cousin, will go to visit in person, I think the third girl will be very happy."
Mrs. Liu thought about it, and hurriedly said: "Since the Third Highness wants to go to the West Wing, I think it's better to let Shu Rao guide you. After all, you seldom come to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, so you don't know the way."
Jing Shurao's heartbeat quickened all of a sudden, her little face was flushed red, she quietly raised the corner of her eyes to look at Gu Beiyu, seeing the handsome and gentle appearance of the other party, it was even a deer bumping wildly, and her thoughts flew nine days away.
Jing Nanqing snorted unwillingly, "Hypocritical!" The Liu family was clearly creating opportunities for Jing Shurao and Cousin Yu!
As soon as the words came out, Jing Lan, who was sitting next to her, gave her a hard look.
Jing Nanqing had never been afraid of her biological mother, Aunt Zhou, but she was only afraid of her own brother, Jing Lan.
Being stared at by him like this, Jing Nanqing stuck out her tongue resentfully, and quickly shut her mouth.
Fortunately, Jing Nanqing's voice was too low to reach everyone's ears, so this little episode was soon over.
Gu Beiyu was busy going to see Jing Se, and didn't even think about the small calculations in the hearts of these women, so he readily agreed to let Jing Shurao lead him the way.
Liu's heart was overjoyed, and she hurriedly told Jing Shurao, "Rao'er, you have to entertain the Third Highness well, don't neglect him."
Jing Shurao blushed and nodded, "Don't worry, mother."
After finishing speaking, Jing Shurao bid farewell to the old lady and concubine Shu, and then took Gu Beiyu to the west wing.
The old lady's warm pavilion is some distance away from the west wing.
Jing Shurao deliberately slowed down, restrained her heart that was about to jump out of her chest, and whispered, "Third Cousin."
Gu Beiyu didn't know why, so he looked at her, "What's wrong?"
Seeing Gu Beiyu's gentle eyes, Jing Shurao blushed again. She lowered her head slightly and asked, "Is Third Cousin in a hurry to see Third Sister?"
Gu Beiyu was slightly stunned, "So what if it is, so what if it's not?"
When Jing Shurao heard that his tone was wrong, he was worried that his third cousin would misunderstand him, so he quickly explained, "I mean, if you are not in a hurry to see third sister, I can take you to the back garden to see the best Molan, and listen to it in the morning. The maids said that the flowers bloomed today, and they were extremely beautiful, so Mo Lan must have known that her third cousin would come today, so she picked such an important day to bloom."
Gu Beiyu raised his eyebrows, "Your family still has Mo Lan?"
"Yes." Jing Shurao said: "It was my father's birthday last year, and his colleagues specially sent it."
Gu Beiyu thought for a while, "Since it's blooming today, I can't miss this great opportunity. I'll go to the West Wing Room in a while and call Cousin Jingse up, and let's go see it together."
After finishing speaking, Gu Beiyu shrank his eyes and looked at Jing Shurao with a little confusion on his face.
Jing Shurao seldom went out of the house, let alone any outsider, but at this moment, being stared at by Gu Beiyu, she blushed again.
Without waiting for her to speak, Gu Beiyu asked a little embarrassedly: "Sister, what's your name, and which room do you live in?"
With this question, a basin of cold water was poured on Jing Shurao's head like ice and snow, which instantly subsided the flush on her face.
It turned out that the third cousin didn't even know who he was.
Jing Shurao's heart was full of loss, sour and bitter.
Gu Beiyu saw her hesitate, so he stepped forward, "Since you don't want to say it, then I won't force it. The west wing is the front, right? You go back first, I can find the way myself, thank you!"
His voice was clearly as clear as ever, and there was no sign of alienation, but Jing Shurao heard it very unpleasantly.
She trotted to follow, and hurriedly explained, "No, I just didn't expect third cousin to never recognize who I am."
Gu Beiyu thought for a while, and said truthfully: "The sisters in the right minister's mansion, except for my cousin Jingse, I really don't know who you are."
This sentence immediately made Jing Shurao choke, and he couldn't find the words to answer for a long time, and his face became even more gloomy.
Immediately, Jing Shurao remembered Liu's painstaking arrangements, secretly thinking that she couldn't just admit defeat like this, she immediately put on a gentle smile, and planned to introduce herself, but Gu Beiyu didn't mean to listen at all, her footsteps became more and more Quick, it didn't take long to arrive outside the West Wing. After asking the sweeping maid about the location of Jing Wanbai's room, Gu Beiyu walked over directly.
Standing in the corridor, Jing Shurao looked at Gu Beiyu's impatient figure, and tightly clenched the silk handkerchief in his hand.
"Hey, what is Fourth Sister doing standing here alone?" A voice came from the rockery, full of mockery.
Jing Shurao turned her head and saw Jing Nanqing with a smug face, her eyebrows raised high, and she walked out with a look of gloating, "Didn't Fourth Sister send Third Cousin to see Third Sister? Why didn't you see Third Cousin?"
Jing Shurao glared at Jing Nanqing angrily, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Of course it has nothing to do with me." Jing Nanqing said with a smile: "I just happened to pass by, and then I saw some people who couldn't wait to express themselves in front of Third Cousin, who knows that Third Cousin doesn't even know who you are, Oh, I'm really worried, the fourth sister hates marriage so much, and the younger sister is worried for you when she is watching."
The word "Hate Marriage" just hit Jing Shurao's spine, and she immediately turned gloomy.
Jing Nanqing took two steps back and looked at her vigilantly, "Why, fourth sister is going to beat someone? It's true that you are a concubine, but I am also a member of the second room, and I will not interfere with your third room, if you dare Hitting me is to bully the small and oppress others with power, I will tell the old lady in a while, and I promise you will not be able to eat today."
Jing Shurao's teeth itch with hatred, "Jing Nanqing, I ask myself that I have never offended you, why do you make it difficult for me so many times?"
Jing Nanqing raised her eyebrows, "Fourth Sister's words are amazing. I just happened to pass by, so how could it be difficult for you? If it is true according to what you said, there are so many sisters in the mansion, why should I Instead of going against others, you want to go against you?"
Jing Shurao clenched her fingers tightly, "Jing Nanqing, you'd better restrain yourself. I don't care about what happened today because of your young age. If there is another time, I will never let you down!"
Jing Nanqing laughed suddenly, "Fourth Sister, I'm so scared, aren't you going to eat me?"
Jing Shurao snorted coldly, "I can't take care of you, someone will take care of you."
Jing Nanqing was stunned, seeing Jing Shurao walking away, she hurried forward to stop her, her eyes were stern, "What do you mean, you'd better explain clearly!"
Jing Shurao looked at her contemptuously, "Get out of the way!"
"No, I won't let!" Jing Nanqing stood still, "If you don't speak clearly today, I will pester you until you speak!"
Jing Shurao sneered, "Jing Nanqing, you are just a concubine from the second house, what right do you have to come and shout at me, if not for your young age, how many people in this mansion do you think are willing to let you go? In half a month, your outgoing father will bring his family back to celebrate the Spring Festival, and then, let's see what you can use to challenge your younger siblings!"
Jing Nanqing really froze.
Her father was a foreign official, and he had concubines and heirs.
Jing Nanqing has always known about this matter, but she never took it to heart. She always felt that Aunt Zhou raised her father's son Jing Lan with her own hands. Auntie is a little bit, but now listening to Jing Shurao, it seems that his father dotes on his concubine even more.
Also, my father is not in Jinling all the year round, so naturally he is no longer close to the children in the Right Prime Minister's residence.
Thinking of this, Jing Nanqing couldn't stop crying and fell down immediately.
Jing Shurao panicked, she was afraid that Jing Nanqing would frame her and slander her, she was about to say goodbye to herself, but she saw that Jing Nanqing had already wiped her tears and ran back crying.
Jing Shurao breathed a sigh of relief, she also heard from her father Jing Yuwei that her second uncle was about to bring his concubine and children back for the Spring Festival, and she never expected to be able to threaten Jing Nanqing with this.
Thinking of this, Jing Shurao slowly raised her lips. From the beginning, Nanqing always liked to fight against her. When the second uncle's concubines return with their children, let's see how arrogant Jing Nanqing is!
The previous depression caused by Gu Beiyu was swept away, Jing Shurao gathered his mind, and walked towards Jing Wanbai's room.
After several days of quiet recuperation, coupled with the powerful ointment prepared by Jing Se, Jing Wan Bai can completely remove the stitches today.
When Jing Shurao came in, Jing Se had just finished removing the stitches, Su Aoyu was anxiously waiting outside, and Gu Beiyu was sitting on the teacher's chair, drinking tea quietly.
Not long after, Jingse came out from the room.
Su Aoyu hurried up to meet her, "Arthur, how is Wan Bai?"
Jing Se smiled, "The stitches have been removed, but the scar cannot fall off for a while, and it will take some time."
Su Aoyu was overjoyed, "So, Wan Bai's wounds are all healed, right?"
"Well." Jing Se nodded, "As long as she follows the prescription I prescribed, she will take the decoction orally and apply the ointment externally, she will recover in a short time, her face will be smooth and smooth, and there will be no scars."
Su Aoyu was excited, thanked him a thousand times and hurried into the inner room to see Jing Wanbai.
Seeing Jing Shurao standing at the door, Jing Se smiled and said hello, "Why is the fourth sister here?"
Jing Shurao said: "My mother just asked me to lead the way for my third cousin, and I also wanted to come and visit my third sister, so I just dropped by."
Jing Se nodded, "Then why don't you come in and sit?"
Before Jing Shurao could speak, Gu Beiyu said, "Cousin, the fourth cousin just said that she would take us to the back garden to see the blooming of the orchids, do you want to go?"
While tidying up the medicine box, Jing Se said: "I just spent a lot of energy removing the stitches for my third sister. I want to go back and have a rest, so I won't go, but I heard that Molan blooms beautifully. Bei Yu, if you really If you like it, how about I let my fourth sister take you there? In case you miss it, you have to wait until next winter."
When Gu Beiyu heard that Jing Se wouldn't go, he immediately curled his lips, "Forget it, if you don't go, what's the point of me going by myself?"
When Jing Shurao heard Jing Se's affectionate name for Gu Beiyu, she felt very uncomfortable, her lips were tightly pressed together, and suddenly she felt that standing here was unnecessary, she turned around to leave, but Jing Se stopped her.
Jing Shurao turned around, "Big sister, what else do you want?"
Jing Se said with a smile: "Since the Third Highness wants to see Mo Lan, then I can't just disrespect him like this. The Mo Lan plant belongs to the third uncle, so let the fourth sister guide us?"
When Gu Beiyu heard that Jing Se was willing to go again, his eyes lit up immediately.
Jing Shurao saw that Gu Beiyu cheered up again, and smiled slightly, "Okay."
Jing Se asked the maid to take the medicine box back to her Muyunju, while the three of them walked towards the back garden.
Jing Shurao walked in the front, and Gu Beiyu and Jing Se walked side by side, and they walked very slowly.
The three of them were silent all the way, before Gu Beiyu said in a low voice, "Cousin, you were alright after I left at Prince Chu's mansion that day?"
Jing Se laughed, "What can I do?"
Gu Beiyu pursed his lips, "I mean, what did Master Brahma do to you?"
Jing Se gave him a helpless smile, "Don't think too much, Brahma is still a gentleman, how could he treat me like that?"
"Is he a gentleman?" Gu Beiyu couldn't believe that such words could come out of his cousin's mouth.
"That's right!" Jing Se said, "At least compared to some scumbags, Brahma is a good man."
Gu Beiyu narrowed his eyes, "Who is Cousin referring to?"
"No one." Jing Se said with a normal expression, "I'm just making an analogy." Jing Se didn't want Gu Beiyu to know what Gu did.
After getting along for this period of time, Jing Se faintly felt that Gu Beiyu had a strange feeling for him. If he knew that Gu Qian treated him like that, maybe he would turn against Gu Qian immediately.
Although Gu Beiyu has grown up with Gu Qian for a few months, he has lived under the protection of Concubine Shu since he was a child, and rarely participated in intrigues. Therefore, Gu Beiyu's mentality is not as mature as Gu Qian's. Of course, he is not as mature as Gu Qian. Such a deep thought.
According to Gu Beiyu's temperament, if he knew that Gu Gan coveted Jing Se, he would definitely lose his temper.
Gu Beiyu's face was gloomy, and he muttered in a low voice, "Cousin said Brahma is a gentleman, so what am I in your eyes?"
Jing Se smiled slightly, "In my eyes, you are naturally a cute little cousin!"
After Gu Beiyu listened, he stood still and did not leave.
Jing Se looked back at him, "Why, don't you want to see Mo Lan again?"
"Suddenly not interested." Gu Beiyu didn't look at her, and turned his gaze elsewhere.
Jing Se's eyes sparkled slightly, and she roughly guessed why Gu Beiyu reacted like this.
After walking back a few steps, Jing Se stood in front of Gu Beiyu and said, "Since you're not interested, I'll let the fourth sister turn back. I just happened to be tired and wanted to take a break so that I wouldn't be able to attend the third meeting later." My sister's birthday party."
When Gu Beiyu heard her say that she was tired, the previous depression was swept away, and replaced with a little bit of distress, "Then do you care?"
Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "I'm so tired and I still accompany you to see Mo Lan, do you think it's okay?"
Gu Beiyu blamed himself for a while, and suddenly pulled her arm and walked back, "Forget it, let's not look at it, what's so special about Molan, I missed this year, next year it will still bloom, but my cousin's body is Most importantly, if I get hurt because of me, I will blame myself for the rest of my life."
"Hey, hey, hey! Let me go." Jingse is not used to being pulled like this, she frowned, "It's not good for people to see for a while, let go quickly."
Gu Beiyu didn't let go at all, "You and I have such a relationship, so what if someone sees it, we are cousins, I care about your body, there is nothing wrong with it? Who dares to talk behind your back, I will pick it up carefully. His skin!"
Jing Se had no choice but to stand still, "That's not right, I'm arguing with you like this, if it reaches Brahma's ears, what kind of words would that be?"
When Gu Beiyu heard it, his face immediately fell down, "No one knows about today's matter except you and me. How could Prince Brahma know? Could it be that my cousin will go to him to complain?"
Jing Se was dumbfounded by Gu Beiyu's question. In fact, she said this sentence just now by accident.
I didn't realize it until now, why would I care about Fan Chen's feelings subconsciously?Does he know what's the matter?
Jing Shurao, who had been leading the way, turned around and saw Gu Beiyu holding Jing Se's arm. After a moment of surprise, she hurried forward and asked, "Big sister, what's wrong?"
Gu Beiyu said: "Cousin was tired from removing the stitches for cousin Wan Bai earlier, and couldn't see Mo Lan, so I asked her to go back and rest."
Jing Shurao hurriedly said, "Why don't you let me take eldest sister back?"
With that said, Jing Shurao calmly walked to the other side to support Jing Se.
Seeing this, Jing Se smiled and said to Gu Beiyu: "Since the fourth sister is here, I won't bother you. You go back to the Millennium Hall first, and I'll come back after the banquet, okay?"
"Okay." Gu Beiyu responded quickly, and then told Jing Shurao, "It's cold and the road is slippery, Fourth Cousin must be careful. If something goes wrong, I will ask you to ask the teacher."
Jing Shurao smiled slightly, "Third Cousin, don't worry, Shurao will send Big Sister back safely."
Jing Se looked at Jing Shurao's slightly red face, and then at Gu Beiyu, a flash of clarity flashed across his mind.
Not long after, Gu Beiyu returned to the Millennium Hall.
Jing Shurao supported Jing Se and walked slowly towards Mu Yunju.
Jing Se saw that she was silent all the way, so she found a topic to relieve her boredom, "I heard that the third aunt specially asked you to send the third highness to the west wing of the third sister?"
A flash of panic flashed in Jing Shurao's eyes, and he said hastily, "It's just that my third cousin rarely comes to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and doesn't know the way. My mother just asked me to help guide the way."
The corners of Jing Se's mouth twitched. Of course, she knew what Liu Shi was planning. Although Jing Shurao was not too bad, he was always careful under Liu Shi's training.
Jing Se didn't think that Jing Shurao was not good enough for Gu Beiyu if he had a scheming mind, but if he had a scheming mind, it proved that this person had a flexible mind.
However, Jing Se felt that these two people were not suitable.
You know, what Gu Beiyu likes is a woman like Xia Mu who can go up to the court and down the hall, who can clearly love and hate, and dare to act.
Jing Shurao's body is more of the stereotype of a lady, even if she is careful, she can't make any waves.
Withdrawing her thoughts, Jing Se smiled faintly, "Fourth sister, don't be nervous, I'm just asking casually."
Jing Shurao bit her lip, secretly thinking that the Third Highness rarely came to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, if he didn't seize the opportunity, when the eldest aunt took back the power to head the family, her marriage would have to be decided entirely by her .
"Big sister, are you familiar with Third Cousin?" Jing Shurao finally asked in a low voice, she always felt that the Third Highness treated Jing Se differently from others.
"Not very familiar." Jing Se shook his head, "It's not that you don't know, I have only returned to the residence not long ago, and I haven't seen His Highness the Third Highness a few times, so how can we say we are familiar?"
Jing Shurao tightened her fingers, and asked again: "The last time my eldest sister attended the concubine's plum appreciation banquet, I privately heard that it was a concubine selection banquet for His Highness the Third Highness, is it true?"
"Yes!" Jing Se confessed, and changed the subject, "It's a pity that the Third Highness didn't take a fancy to anyone. I guess he has too high a view."
Jing Shurao lowered her head gloomyly.
That's right, with the high status of the Third Highness, even Miss Qianjin, who is higher than himself, can't look down on him, so how can he look down on himself?
Jing Se knew what Jing Shurao was thinking, so she didn't point it out, and asked with a smile: "Fourth sister is also interested in the marriage of His Highness the Third?"
Jing Shurao was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and shook his head violently, "I'm just curious, after all, my grandmother came back early for the Plum Blossom Banquet that day, but she didn't say anything, so we don't know what happened at the banquet. "
Jing Se's eyes moved, Jing Shurao's words were testing her, hoping to hear the details about the plum appreciation banquet from her mouth.
With a low smile, Jing Se said: "I also left the banquet with my grandmother. Later, when I met Brahma, I went to the Chu Palace to check his pulse. I didn't know what happened at the banquet, but since my grandmother didn't say anything, we also We can't ask, what a shrewd person grandma is, if she finds out that we have such thoughts, no one will have a good fruit to eat."
Jing Se would like to warn Jing Shurao with these words. If she is smart, she should understand the pros and cons.
"Big sister is right." Jing Shurao sweated secretly, thinking that Jing Se is indeed an extremely smart person, and her little thoughts are totally invisible in front of her.
After sending Jing Se back to Muyunju, Jing Shurao went back.
After Jing Se went in, she lay down on the soft couch and rested for a while, and didn't come out until the banquet started after changing her clothes.
Today is Jing Wanbai's birthday banquet and the Jiji ceremony. Concubine Shu, as the official guest, personally added the Jiji for her. Jing Wanbai's face was covered with a light veil, and she was wearing clothes and shoes. She looked so graceful and graceful like walking in a painting Come out the fairy.
Jing Se sat on the auditorium, looked at Jing Wan Bai, her lips raised slightly, this time, once Jing Wan Bai recovers, she will be more radiant than before, and will attract Gu Gan's attention even more.
At that time, Jing Wan Bai will have the only chance to turn around in her life: from the crown prince's side concubine to the main concubine again.
After Jing Wan Bai turned over, it was time for her Jing Se and Gu Gan to officially open the battle line.
At that time, all those who have betrayed her in the past and present will not even try to escape!
After the gift was completed, everyone began to give gifts.
Concubine Shu presented a set of crabapple travertine stone and banana leaf tea set, a set of five phoenix chaoyang golden silk bead head face, a pair of silver inlaid red beads and white flower bracelets, a pair of hollowed out beads inlaid with green glass rhinestone armlets, and a Hangzhou specialty royal Two bolts of tribute twill Ning silk.
Mrs. Jing presented seven gold hairpins with hanging silver tassels and emeralds, gold earrings with emerald orchid pins, a bronze mirror with a tortoiseshell cloud pattern hanging with red hairpins and eight-treasure prismatic flowers, and a jade pendant with dotted emerald double knots and inlaid beads.
Other than that, the gifts from other people were not as valuable as Concubine Shu and Mrs. Jing, but they were not too shabby either.
Jingse was the last one to give gifts.
She was holding a square brocade box with a dark purple pattern in her hand, one foot square, it didn't seem like it could hold much, but Jing Wan Bai just couldn't wait to know what Jing Se would give her.
Although she doesn't dare to challenge Jing Se now, the last time when she was released from prison Jing Se deliberately humiliated her with ruby and South Sea pearl earrings, Jing Wan Bai still remembers it in her heart, so Jing Wan Bai's heart at this moment She struggled a little, and she was worried that Jingse would repeat the same trick.
Su Aoyu saw Jing Wanbai's abnormality, and quickly gave her a secret look.
Jing Wan Bai took a deep breath, calmed down, forced a smile and asked, "Can you let me guess what Eldest Sister gave me?"
Jing Se smiled, "Then guess what's in it?"
Jing Wan Bai pretended to think deeply, and then insisted, "There are jewelry inside."
Jing Se shook her head, "No."
Jing Wan Bai was confused, if it wasn't jewelry, what else could Jing Se give her?
The corners of Gu Beiyu's lips twitched, "The third cousin hasn't recovered yet. Based on my cousin's superb medical skills and delicate thoughts, I must have given you a cream for beautiful skin."
After Gu Beiyu finished speaking, he turned his eyes to look at Jing Se, with a gentle smile on his brows, "Cousin, am I right?"
Jing Wan Bai opened his mouth wide and looked at Jing Se in disbelief.
When everyone heard this, they became curious.
Jing Se didn't hold back, and opened it directly in front of everyone. There was indeed a small glass bottle inside. The bottle was filled with a dark blue translucent liquid, which made the glass bottle look like finely carved emeralds. Attract attention.
Jing Wan Bai picked up the glass bottle, couldn't put it down, and asked Jing Se in surprise, "Eldest sister, what is this?"
Jing Se smiled, "The Third Highness is right, this is what can make your skin beautiful, more radiant than before, and more beautiful."
Jing Wan Bai exclaimed, and suddenly felt that the gifts given by other people had turned into dust, and only Jing Se's gift was unique in the world and made her heart surge.
After Jing Shurao heard this, she became envious in her heart. If she can also get such a bottle of food to make herself more beautiful, then when she attends banquets with her mother, she will definitely attract the attention of the wives of the aristocratic family. It is not easy to find a husband and son-in-law who is of equal family and looks.
Thinking of this, Jing Shurao pursed her lips, looked at Jing Se in the dark, and thought about leaving the table for a while, she must find a chance to sit in Mu Yunju, and by the way, get some words from the elder sister, to see if she can also ask for a favor bottle to use.
Jing Se prepared this thing, not to mention Jing Shurao, even Concubine Shu was a little moved. You must know that women in the palace want to be honored and favored forever. Brain alone is useless, and they have to be young and old to be firmly established. Capture the heart of the emperor.
Concubine Shu thought so.
But as an elder, she didn't have the nerve to speak in front of everyone in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but she just smiled and said, "Girl Se is such a treasure, you can make such a concoction, and it's almost as fast as the Imperial Hospital The great doctors."
Jing Se smiled, "The third younger sister has a marriage contract with His Royal Highness, her future is related to the lifeline of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. As an older sister, I should do my best to pave the way for her. For example, in the current situation, if the third younger sister is in a long-term If it doesn't heal, it will inevitably be criticized by the royal family, and it will be bad if the marriage contract is damaged at that time. Therefore, I spent several days mixing this small bottle of stuff, so that the third sister can recover sooner and marry into the royal family as the right minister. The government wins glory."
When Jing Yuhuan heard this, he smiled gratifiedly, "Arthur still cares."
Jing Se smiled back, "Father, this is my job."
Mrs. Jing also said: "This gift from Arthur must be the most sincere." After a pause, he added, "Of course, the gift from Concubine Shu is the most expensive, and those are all items from the palace. , Wan Bai must be treasured carefully, don't lose or break it to disappoint your mother's wishes."
Jing Wan Bai recovered from the surprise, and bowed his knees, "Wan Bai thanked Empress Shu and grandmother."
Turning around, she saluted Jing Se again, "My sister thanked me."
Jing Se raised her eyebrows, "There is no need to thank you, as long as you understand that I have done my best to heal you."
When Jing Se said this, Jing Wan Bai immediately remembered that she scolded Jing Se at Pomegranate that night for deliberately delaying time and deliberately refusing to heal her. After staying in Gu for so many years, he is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also knowledgeable and reasonable, and has a broad mind. In the past, my sister was ignorant and said some annoying things. From now on, I hope that there will be a lot of elder sisters who will not care about me."
The corners of Jing Se's lips raised slightly, how could she remember that Jing Wan Bai used to say that she was a wild girl who grew up in the countryside and didn't know how to be polite?
With a hearty smile, Jing Se said: "My sister is serious. I don't remember what you said before. After all, I am my sister. Who would take those words that are impatient and careless? Since you are so capable Sincerity, then we will still be good sisters from now on."
Jing Wan Bai showed a standard smile, and the eyes that were exposed outside the veil rolled, "Thank you, big sister, for your understanding."
Jing Nanqing felt her teeth itch. Originally, she wanted to sit and wait for Jing Se and Jing Wan Bai to fight, and at the end the heroic scene where both were bloodied and wounded, she never thought that these two people would take advantage of this day to make peace, Jing Wan Bai She will become more beautiful in the future, so won't no one see her as a concubine forever?
Thinking of these, Jing Nanqing was filled with unwillingness.Recalling what Jing Shurao said before, Jing Nanqing's thoughts changed, and she secretly thought that when her father came back, she must find a way to get Aunt Zhou to be righted by him, otherwise, she would not be able to be a prostitute in this life, and she would be dead. I won't rest in peace either!
After the banquet was over, Concubine Shu stayed in the Millennium Hall to talk to Mrs. Jing, accompanied by Su Aoyu and Mrs. Liu, and Gu Beiyu followed Jing Yuhuan to the front yard to hang out with Jing Mingyuan, Jing Lan, and Jing Yi. The rest of the people went back to the courtyard.
Not long after Jing Se returned to Muyun Residence, Jing Shurao really came.
Jing Se wasn't surprised at all, she didn't want to entertain anyone today, so she didn't want to turn the corner politely, so she simply asked, "Did the fourth sister come here for the jade muscle dew?"
Jing Shurao didn't expect Jing Se to see through her own thoughts at a glance, she immediately felt a little at a loss, twisted the silk handkerchief and said, "Elder Sister, is there any leftover jade muscle lotion you prepared for Third Sister?"
Jing Se smiled lightly, "No."
Jing Shurao's complexion darkened for a while, and he murmured, "I see, that's really a pity."
Jing Se chuckled, "What a pity, that kind of thing is useless to you."
"How come..." Jing Shurao was taken aback, somewhat disbelieving.
Jing Se said bluntly, "Jade Muscle Lotion is only useful for people with scars on the skin. If the fourth sister wants to, you can also disfigure yourself first, and then use that kind of thing."
Jing Shurao shuddered, and then remembered that Jing Se had said in the Millennium Hall that Jing Wanbai would be more radiant and charming than before with the use of Jade Muscle Lotion. Jing Shurao was a little moved. Is it more beautiful than before if I use the Jade Skin Lotion prepared by my elder sister?
Jing Se easily saw through her mind and reminded: "However, such things as jade muscle dew are not easy to come by. Leaving aside the complicated preparation process, just a few of the precious medicinal materials will cost a lot of money. The most important thing is that there are two kinds of medicinal materials, even if you have money, you can't buy them. The reason why I have exhausted my painstaking efforts to prepare them is just to give the third sister a gift that makes her happy. If the fourth sister wants to Yes, I probably don't have so much money to spend for you."
Jing Shurao originally wanted to say that she could pay for it, but when Jing Se said that there were two kinds of medicinal materials that money could not buy, she was immediately discouraged.
After sending Jing Shurao away, Jingse entered the room, Yingluo brought dessert up, and whispered, "Miss Biao, Sister Qinger is back."
Jing Se's eyes moved, "Let her come to see me."
Yingluo nodded, "She just arrived, she is packing things in the room, and she will be here in a while."
Jing se nodded and waited patiently.
Not long after, Qing'er came in, greeted Jing Se first, and then stood aside, Jing Se retreated from Yingluo, looked at Qing'er, and asked, "Did you gain anything from visiting Pomegranate's hometown this time?"
Qing'er hesitated and said, "I don't know if this is a harvest or not."
Jing Se signaled, "Tell me first."
Qing'er said: "My servant asked the old people in the village, and the old people told me that before the family of Pomegranate Father and Pomegranate Mother were very fond of gambling, he owed a big debt, and then Pomegranate Mother came to their village, somehow She fell in love with Pomegranate's father, and not long after, the two married hastily. Pomegranate's mother was still rich, and she helped Pomegranate's father pay off all the debts. Later, Pomegranate's father gradually quit gambling, and the two lived a happy life It was quite fulfilling. When Pomegranate Lady gave birth to the pomegranate, it was less than a month old. The Pomegranate Lady said that the pomegranate was premature, but then some unpleasant rumors gradually spread in the village, saying that the pomegranate was not at all under the month. It’s not that big, after all, it’s just that Pomegranate’s mother was pregnant with Pomegranate before marrying Pomegranate’s father.”
"Since then, Pomegranate's father has been drinking heavily, beating and scolding Pomegranate's mother every three days, even the little Pomegranate, and Pomegranate's mother can't get sick, and the family's situation is getting worse day by day. Pomegranate's father has no choice but to She sold the pomegranate to a toothmaid and worked as a maid for a big family in the town for two years. After that family fell into decline, Pomegranate finally returned home. Only then did she find out that her mother had died of illness and her father was living like a beggar. Originally, I wanted to support that family by myself, but Shiliu's father still didn't give up and sold her again, so she came to our house several times."
After hearing this, Jing Se fell into silence.
Qing'er asked softly: "Miss, do you think there is something strange here?"
"There should be." Jing Se said: "If Pomegranate's mother was pregnant with Pomegranate early in the morning before marrying Pomegranate's father, then whose child is Pomegranate?"
Qing'er shook her head, "I don't know about this... I don't know."
Jing Se meditated for a moment, "You used to stay with Su's side for a long time, do you know if there are any people in this mansion who were kicked out like my aunt?"
Qing'er shook her head again, "Master, there are only two aunts in total, Aunt Luo, Aunt Tao, and there are no other aunts. Could it be that the eldest miss suspects that Pomegranate is the aunt in the house, and she was kicked out due to an accident? "
Jing Se nodded, "It's not impossible, but from what I heard from you, what my father said about these two aunts seems unlikely. Could it be that father had a woman outside, but he couldn't bring them back?"
"Shouldn't it?" Qing'er frowned, "I heard that the Elder hardly ever travels far, the furthest time was when I went to the south with my late wife to provide disaster relief, but that time my late wife unfortunately contracted an epidemic and died. Well, even if the Elder Master has no conscience, it is impossible to find other women to have sex at such a critical point? Otherwise, it would be a crime!"
Jingse frowned even deeper, "You're right, but the age of Pomegranate just coincides with the year when father's disaster relief. Could it be a coincidence?"
Qing'er choked suddenly.
Jing Se pursed her lips tightly. If Pomegranate was really Jing Yuhuan's daughter born to another woman during the disaster relief year, it means that Su Leyao's death was not that simple, and Jing Se must use Pomegranate to punish her severely. Jing Yuhuan said something.
After a long time, Qing'er asked in a low voice: "Miss, what shall we do next?"
Jing Se said: "Don't startle the snake, now that it is confirmed that Pomegranate's life experience is likely to be related to Jing Yuhuan, then it is not a coincidence that this woman will be transferred to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, as long as she has premeditated, she will definitely do something, let's first Wait and see what happens, and see what she will do next."
Qing'er nodded, "The servant understands."
*
Jing Wanbai has been smearing the Jade Muscle Lotion sent by Jing Se on his face every day since the Jiji ceremony. Wan Bai was extremely satisfied, even the maids around her felt from the bottom of their hearts that Miss San was more beautiful than before.
Every time Jing Wan Bai went to pay his respects, even if he was wearing a veil, the maids who passed by would stop to watch and admire him.
Su Aoyu was even more overjoyed. For her now, being in charge of the family is far less important than her daughter's beauty. Once she has beauty, it will not be easy to seduce the prince in the future.
Su Aoyu often took Jing Wanbai's hand, and told her to guard against arrogance and impetuosity from now on, and always treat herself as the mother of the country in her heart, no matter in front of or behind her, she must show superior dignity and demeanor.
After the disfigurement incident, Jing Wanbai gradually became obedient. She took everything Su Aoyu said to heart. Therefore, not only did everyone in the family think that Jing Wanbai had become more beautiful, but also her temperament had changed. He will easily get angry and beat and scold the servant girl, let alone haggling with others, the pair of beautiful eyes outside the veil are always full of tenderness, even a woman can't help but be attracted by her beauty when she sees her.
Jing Wanbai has also come to Muyunju several times to thank Jing Se for the bottle of Jade Muscle Lotion. Jing Se never reaches out and doesn't hit smiling faces. Every time, she receives Jing Wan Bai in a decent way, and reminds her to pay attention which places.
Qing'er has always been aware of Jing Se's dark nature, so although she doesn't know the secret of that bottle of Jade Muscle Lotion, she firmly believes in her heart that the eldest lady would never be so kind to make Jing Wan Bai so beautiful, maybe Jing Wan Bai Wan Bai can't jump around for a few days at all.
Therefore, Qing'er didn't have any feelings about this matter.
On the contrary, Yingluo, every time she saw Jing Wanbai was more beautiful than before, she scolded secretly every time she saw it, she really didn't understand why Miss Biao wanted to help Jing Wanbai, a hypocritical woman like Jing Wanbai, sometimes she was really hurt I couldn't stop, so I went to Qing'er to vent, but Qing'er always laughed it off and comforted her by saying that the young lady is a kind-hearted person, and that she can help Jing Wanbai regardless of the past, which shows that the young lady has a broad mind.
After hearing Qing'er's words, Yingluo felt even more troubled.
Over time, Yingluo also got used to it, but she never liked Jing Wanbai, as soon as Jing Wanbai came over, she would not stay in the Nuan Pavilion, but go to another place, and let Qing'er take care of her alone.
Jing Se is well aware of Yingluo's protective personality, which is clear about what she loves and what hates, so she won't say anything about her, and lets her go.
*
Time flies, and soon it is the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, only five days away from the New Year's Eve.
This is the last time Jingse went to Chu Palace this year. When the carriage was halfway there, a rider suddenly came in front of him. The speed was as fast as the wind, and he was about to collide with Jingse's carriage.
The driver's face turned pale with fright, and the horse raised its hooves and neighed in terror.
The carriage leaned back because of the hooves of the horse, and Jing Se and Yingluo fell backwards together, Yingluo turned pale with shock, "Miss Biao, grab the servant!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to grab the window sill, dug her five fingers into the groove of the window sill, and finally stabilized herself.
Jing Se was thinking about something at first, but she didn't expect such an accident to happen. She quickly grabbed Yingluo's arm so as not to let herself sway with the shaking of the carriage.
The man on the horse had no time to stop, and was about to charge up with only a foot away.
Jing Se lifted the curtain to see this scene, and cried out in her heart that it was not good, for a person like her who has no martial arts at all, she couldn't avoid it.
When he was anxious, a blue shadow suddenly flew in the void, piercing the gray sky as fast as lightning, with such force as to smash a bamboo. With his profound internal strength and precise foot power, he kicked the main artery of the horse's neck with lightning speed, causing the horse to There was a moment of hesitation in the pain, taking this opportunity, the young man jumped up, sat on the horse's back accurately, snatched the rein from the owner of the horse, and pulled it up fiercely, so that the horse could barely stand on both sides of Jing Se's carriage. A foot away, he jumped up as if he had grown wings, flew over the roof of the carriage, and landed firmly in a blink of an eye.
Such a bold but precise emergency rescue method can only be achieved by people with extremely advanced martial arts.
The man on the horseback was frightened to death, his face was pale, and he completely forgot to react.
Yingluo's face was even paler, still in shock.
On the contrary, Jingse's expression was normal, she lifted the curtain, and clearly saw the young man who rescued them.
The other party was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, holding a landscape painting folding fan in his hand. It was clearly the gloomy sky of the twelfth lunar month, but it seemed that spring was radiant because of his arrival, and he was in the backlight, facing Jingse's side It seemed that there was a slight smile on the corners of her delicate lips.
Out of politeness, Jing Se got out of the carriage and knelt to thank him, but her eyes paused on the young man's face, and thoughts flashed across her eyes.
"Thank you, Young Hero, for your rescue."
The young man raised Jing Se's chin with a folding fan, and praised, "What a beautiful woman who is out of the dust, if you want to thank me, how about a promise with your body?"
Jing Se smiled slightly, "Young Xia fell in love with me at first sight?"
The young man raised his lips obliquely, "Yes." After finishing speaking, his indistinguishable and delicate face approached Jing Se with a flirtatious smile, "However, I prefer love over time."
Jing Se's eyes flickered, but she was not annoyed, she always had a smile on her face.
Fan Yue's anxious voice suddenly came from not far away, "Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
The young man suddenly turned his head, fixed his gaze on Fan Yue's face, then retracted his gaze in an instant, and raised his eyebrows at Jing Se, "Beauty, I remember what you said, I want to repay my young master's life-saving grace with my body. Everyone calls me 'Seven Lords', I have to say goodbye today, and when I am free some other day, I will bring a betrothal gift to your house to propose marriage."
