The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 39

Stayed up too late yesterday, Jing Shu woke up and it was already daylight, she quickly got up and called Ziyun in, she couldn't help complaining: "It's already this hour, why didn't you wake me up earlier."

Ziyun folded the quilt and replied: "This one is not from the [-]th day of the Lunar New Year, and there is no need to greet the old lady. What are you in a hurry for?"

Jingshu paused and looked at Ziyun.Only then did Ziyun come to his senses, now that his young lady is the head of the house, she has so many things to do, how can she be as leisure as usual.

She suddenly remembered Li Ling's order to go out early in the morning, and said to Jing Shu: "Before leaving the house, Master Shizi specially told you to sleep more."

Jing Shu asked, "Has he gone to the camp?"

Ziyun replied: "My son left before dawn, and said he would come back early today to accompany you to the princess mansion."

She really planned to go to the Princess Mansion to meet her mother-in-law today, but she didn't expect Li Ling to go too.

Jing Shu ordered: "Hurry up and let them set the meal, I have to hurry up and settle the bill after I'm done."

Ziyun agreed to go out, and Jingshu took care of washing herself, and simply tied her hair into a wishful bun, and inserted it with a black jade hairpin.

When Ziyun and Danzhu brought breakfast, Jing Shu had already tidied up quickly. Ziyun put a bowl of steaming bird's nest porridge in front of Jing Shu, and said with a smile: "This is the son of the world who specially ordered the servant to let the little one eat before going out." The kitchen made it for you."

Jing Shu didn't say anything, but Dan Zhu couldn't help covering her face and laughing.

Jing Shu shot her a look, "What are you laughing at?"

Dan Zhu said with a smile: "I think the son is getting more and more interested in our young lady."

Jing Shu didn't say a word, just eating breakfast by herself.

Ziyun knew that she had been angry with Li Ling for what happened in the garden a few days ago.Although she didn't know what kind of unhappiness the two of them had that day, but seeing her young lady being put into such a mess, she couldn't help but blame Li Ling in her heart.

While serving Jingshu's dishes, Ziyun replied to Danzhu's words: "Our young lady is good in everything, whoever you marry, who can treat you kindly."

Dan Zhu nodded in agreement, and said sincerely: "Sister is right, among the noble girls in Chang'an City, in terms of talent, appearance and temperament, there is really no one who can compare to our young lady."

"That's right," Ziyun echoed.

Jing Shu put down her chopsticks, glanced at the two of them and said, "Shut up, both of you, I will be full without having to eat in a while."

The three of them were talking here, and it was reported that the old lady came in and said to Jing Shu: "Madam, the nurse Qiu who is beside Mrs. Xiyuan has something urgent to see."

Mother Qiu is Xu Wanning's wet nurse. Jing Shu heard that Mother Xu was in a hurry to find her, so she hurriedly asked to bring her in.

Mother Qiu entered the main room, and she didn't bother to greet Jing Shu, panting heavily and hurriedly said: "Second Madam, please hurry up and persuade our Madam."

Seeing the sweat on her brow, Jing Shu replied, "Don't worry, Mammy, what happened?"

As she said that, Ziyun brought a bowl of hot tea and persuaded her: "Don't worry, mama, drink some tea to moisten your throat."

Mother Qiu ran all the way over, her mouth was parched, she brought it over and drank a couple of gulps, then she calmed down and said, "Madam is going to kill someone!"

kill?
Jingshu and Ziyun looked at each other, and quickly asked: "What's going on?"

Mother Qiu calmed down, and replied: "It's all because the palace concubine called Mei Niang who was rewarded to the uncle in the palace, came late to greet Da Furen today, Da Furen just reprimanded her, but she actually I fainted in Bitangju."

Dan Zhu made a "squeak" from the side, and said disdainfully, "What a coquette."

Jingshu gave Danzhu a look, then turned to Qiu Nanny and said, "Sister-in-law is angry because of this?"

Mother Qiu continued: "Uncle learned about this, he came over to argue with Madam without further ado, and the two quarreled all morning."

Doting on concubines and destroying wives!Don't blame Xu Wanning for being angry.

Jingshu put on her coat, and said to Mother Qiu, "I'll go and have a look."

Mother Qiu seemed to have won the backbone, and muttered: "Second madam, go quickly. After the uncle leaves, our wife dares to go out with all the girls, and stays alone in the room." As she said, she moved closer to Jingshu , said in a low voice: "I'm worried, I peeked through the crack of the door and saw her sitting quietly sharpening a knife by herself."

Dan Zhu opened his mouth in shock and said, "Oh my God! Da Furen won't be overwhelmed."

When Mother Qiu heard this, she angrily said to Dan Zhu: "Our wife will not do stupid things." She paused, looked at Jing Shu and said in a low voice: "I guess she wants to kill that concubine."

With Xu Wanning's temperament, she can indeed do it.

It's just that Mei Niang was rewarded by the palace, so she must never be killed.

Jing Shu didn't say much anymore, she raised her foot and walked out, following Mother Qiu all the way to Bitangju.

When we arrived at Bitangju, Jing Shuli knocked on the door, but there was no reply for a long time. Mother Qiu looked in through the crack of the door, and said in a low voice, "Madam is still sitting there sharpening the knife." .”

Jing Shu waved her hand at Nanny Qiu, motioning for her to step back, then pushed open the door and walked in.

Xu Wanning was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch with her back facing her.

Not sharpening the knife, but wiping a long sword carefully with a cloth.

Jingshu suddenly remembered the "sudden death" of Gong Ji in her previous life within a few months of entering the mansion, and then contacted Li Xian's failure to enter the cabinet in her previous life. Now she finally understands the cause and effect of the matter: Xu Wanning must be the Gong Ji was disrespectful, and killed her in a fit of anger. The woman was gifted by the Holy Majesty, and she "died violently" within a few days after entering the Zhen Guogong Mansion. It's over.

This Gong Ji cannot be killed!

Even if it wasn't for Li Xian and Zhenguo's government, she had to stop her just for Xu Wanning. With Li Xian's personality, if Xu Wanning really failed to get promoted because of Xu Wanning, how could she let her go.

In her previous life, shortly after that Gong Ji's "violent death", she vaguely heard that Li Xian was making a fuss about divorcing his wife, and then she seemed to be suppressed by the old lady.

It can be seen that the reason for the two people's quarrel in the previous life was because of this.

She had to find a way to stop Xu Wanning.

Jing Shu walked up to Xu Wanning and sat down. Seeing her gloomy face and not speaking, Jing Shu glanced at her face and said, "What's the matter? Are you really going to kill someone?"

Only then did Xu Wanning raise her eyes, stood up and slashed at a flowering tree growing on the table with a sword, and instantly leveled the crown of the tree.

The movements are clean and neat, with a somewhat heroic air.

Jing Shu said: "I never thought you would have such skill."

Xu Wanning looked back at her, then sat back on the couch, looked at the sword carefully, and murmured: "This sword was given to me by my father when I was in my boudoir."

Jing Shu looked at the sword in Xu Wanning's hand, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law was born in the general family, and the things that Uncle Xu gave his daughter are also different from ordinary people."

Seeing that Xu Wanning's face was still full of anger, Jing Shu continued: "Is sister-in-law going to use the sword given by uncle to kill a concubine?"

Xu Wanning suddenly came over and spat fiercely: "She deserves it too!"

"She really doesn't deserve it." Jing Shu said.

Xu Wanning withdrew her sword, looked at Jing Shu, and said angrily: "But I really can't swallow this breath, thinking that I am a dignified and brave lady, and I will be angered by a bitch today."

Jing Shu said: "That's your own anger! Since you think she is unworthy, why bother?"

Xu Wanning was silent for a long time, and said to Jing Shu: "I'm not just because of that bitch, you didn't see how Li Xian came here angrily because of her today."

As she said that, Xu Wanning's eyes turned red, and she choked up with sobs and said, "I've been married to him for so many years, and I've given birth to her children, I never imagined that my regular wife is not as good as a lowly concubine in her heart."

Jing Shu handed over the handkerchief, and persuaded: "You think like this is a dead end, she is no more than a concubine, relying on coquettish means to curry favor with men, you are in the middle of her arms because of this. "

Xu Wanning tried her tears and said, "You didn't see her coquettish look in front of Li Xian. I really don't understand. Is Li Xian an idiot? Can't you really see her tricks?"

Li Xian was a high school student, but a well-known talent in Chang'an City, and now he is doing well in the officialdom.

He is not an idiot!Just obsessed, obsessed with the weakness of a woman, obsessed with the satisfaction of a male protecting the weak.
