Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 93 New Year's Eve
Jiang Changning pondered for a moment, then said in words: "In the palace, Zhuang Cairen once sent someone to invite me over to drink tea to reminisce about the old days."

"This is a conspiracy, you didn't go?" King Jin asked eagerly.

"I didn't go, and I didn't want to go, but my sister-in-law persuaded me to go over and over again. I'm not sure if my sister-in-law is in collusion with the emperor, but I'm sure she wants to kill me."

"Sister-in-law wouldn't do that." Jin Wang knew that Jiang Changning and Qiao Shi were at odds, but it shouldn't be to the point of death or life.

"She has a reason for doing this." Jiang Changning looked serious.

King Jin's expression also became solemn, "What reason?"

"She doesn't want anyone to occupy the position of Princess Jin. I have been married into the palace for three months, and she has never called me Princess Jin, nor my younger siblings." Jiang Changning paused, "Why would she do this? Have you ever thought about it, my lord?"

King Jin frowned, "Ningning, what do you want to say?"

Jiang Changning pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were clear, "My lord actually noticed something, but I just can't believe it, or rather, my lord doesn't want to believe it."

Anyone who cares about ethical relationships will not go too far.

King Jin pursed his lips and remained silent, as if acquiescing to Jiang Changning's statement.

He is not a dull person. The way Qiao looked at him was not the way a sister-in-law should look at her brother-in-law.

But the status of the two made him unwilling to delve into it.

Now that Jiang Changning has exposed the matter, he knows that he can no longer avoid it, he must face it.

"She is the eldest brother's widow, a person who misses the past, respect her, don't think too much about it." Jin Wang analyzed the reason why he avoided this matter.

"The prince is a gentleman, but Qiao is not a chaste woman." Jiang Changning did not object to the remarriage of widows, and foreigners also accepted marriages.

But Mrs. Qiao shouldn't covet someone else's husband, and even want to kill this man's wife.

King Jin was silent again, and Jiang Changning had to continue talking as he had already reached this point.

Now that the pustules have been pricked, the pus must be squeezed out.

"My lord, there is no difference between Qiao's mind and the emperor's. Maybe the two hit it off right away. After the matter is successful, I will return to the emperor, and the prince will return to Qiao's. What a best of both worlds."

"They are delusional. You are my wife and I am your husband." King Jin's eyes became cold.

"My lord, the emperor will leave it to you. As for the Qiao family who covets my husband, this is a matter between women. Please don't interfere, is that okay?" Jiang Changning asked.

She was worried that King Jin would hold back Qiao's for his brother's sake.

But weeding does not remove the roots, spring breeze blows life.

Jiang Changning didn't want to keep Qiao Shi, she wanted to make arrangements to kill Qiao Shi.

She cannot and will not forgive those who want to trap her in a fire pit.

"Don't need my help?"

Jiang Changning smiled and said, "If necessary, I will find you."

After finishing what they had to say, the couple changed their clothes and went to Rongzhitang.

The New Year's Eve family banquet in Prince Jin's Mansion started at Xushi.

The Rong Stew Hall was brightly lit, Mrs. Qiao and Princess Kang Ren had arrived.

King Jin and Jiang Changning came in, and both mother and daughter stood up.

"Uncle, aunt." Princess Kangren called out.

Jiang Changning smiled and nodded, "Kang Ren."

When King Jin and Jiang Changning sat down, before the tea was brought by the maid, Qiao said, "Shouldn't Mrs. Pu and the others be called over for a reunion dinner together for the New Year's Eve?"

Jiang Changning didn't say anything, and touched the hand warmer, as if he had nothing to do with himself.

King Jin glanced at Mrs. Qiao, with a trace of disgust in his indifferent eyes.

Hate, hate, hate?
Qiao couldn't believe it, and wanted to take a closer look. King Jin had already served a cup of tea.

If you read it wrong, you must have read it wrong. How could King Jin hate her? It's impossible.

Qiao Shi felt relieved, and was about to continue talking when the concubine wearing a bright red coat of hundreds of sons and grandchildren came.

Jiang Changning asked with a smile: "Mother Concubine, my sister-in-law just said that she wants to call those concubines over for a reunion dinner, do you think you can wait a little longer, and wait until they are all here before starting the dinner."

The concubine's face immediately pulled down, "Who said that concubines can come to Rong Stew Hall for reunion dinner?"

"Sister-in-law said it." Jiang Changning said.

A smile appeared on King Jin's lips, and his little princess was so cute when she complained.

Facing the sharp gaze of the concubine, Qiao argued: "Concubine mother, I'm just asking, after all, the situation this year is different from previous years."

"What's the difference? The concubine's room can't come to Rongzhitang to eat. It's a rule I set. Are you going to disobey it?" The concubine asked sharply.

"My daughter-in-law doesn't dare." Mrs. Qiao knelt down.

Jiang Changning stepped forward to support the concubine, while winking at King Jin.

"Mother and concubine, it's Chinese New Year, don't get angry, think it's just in the palace, sister-in-law drank a few more drinks, her mind is not clear, and she forgot this rule for a while." Jin Wang comforted.

Qiao's lips raised slightly, and she didn't hear the meaning of King Jin's words at all, scolding her.

Jiang Changning also helped to coax the concubine a few words, and the concubine calmed down, and then she went to the table for the New Year's Eve dinner.

There is no distinction between male and female tables for the reunion dinner, not to mention that there is only one man, King Jin, and it feels very bleak to let him sit alone outside the screen to eat.

The maids came in one file at a time, carrying food boxes, and waited quietly for the maids on the side to come forward and serve the dishes.

Although the ancestors were sacrificed in the palace, when the reunion dinner was held, the late old King Jin and the former King Jin had to be called.

Spilling the wine on the ground is regarded as a toast to the deceased.

The concubine picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of chicken, implying that it was auspicious at the door.

Only when she moves, others can eat.

"Mother and concubine, you have worked hard this year, and my son and daughter-in-law would like to respect you." King Jin signaled Jiang Changning to stand up with him.

The concubine smiled from ear to ear, and drank the wine in one gulp, "Sit down, it would be best to add a little grandson to me next year."

"My son will work hard." Jin Wang looked at Jiang Changning and smiled.

Jiang Changning was not as thick-skinned as him, and bowed his head shyly.

The child is definitely going to be born, but next year is still too early.

How to procrastinate?
Jiang Changning was worried, feeling a little overwhelmed.

After a meal is eaten, the whole plate is kept on the table in the end, implying that there is more than one year.

After the reunion dinner, we moved to the warm pavilion to talk.

Four adults with a child, a bit deserted, especially the child is still young and mature, sitting bored and bored.

After eating half a plate of melon seeds, King Jin suddenly asked, "Princess, can you play cards?"

"Yes, yes, the card skills are average." Jiang Changning accompanied the old lady Zhuang to wipe the cards.

"Those who celebrate the New Year don't gamble." King Jin asked his servants to bring cards, "The loser, just tell a joke, how about it?"

"Okay." Concubine Toffee and Jiang Changning both agreed. Mrs. Qiao's opinion is not important, Princess Kangren is still a child and doesn't play cards.

The four of them played Bo Lai cards, which is modern poker.

Toffee smiled and said: "This card is not often played, so let's not play too complicated ones, just play something that runs fast."

Playing cards is to pass the time, and the concubine can play whatever she says.

The maid came to divide the cards. Jiang Changning picked up the cards and looked at them. He couldn't laugh anymore. The biggest one was Q, five or ten less.

This card was so ingenious, Jiang Changning knew she was doomed.

When Qiao's couple called, Jiang Changning said calmly, "I'm sorry."

Jin Wang fought three times and two times, Jiang Changning still said: "I'm sorry."

The concubine issued a K, and Jiang Changning pursed his lips, "I'm sorry."

　Note: The author is not addicted to cards, so he played mahjong with his family during the Chinese New Year. He originally won, but as soon as the elder aunt came on the court, she lost all the winnings and counted them, and even lost a few hundred. Huh, I won’t follow in the future The eldest sister played cards.
