The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 396 The old lady wants Qingluan to enter the house
As soon as Jingshu sent Xu Wanning away and Pingyang, the mother of An Xi Tang came to pass the word, saying that the old lady invited some daughters-in-law to An Xi Tang to discuss matters.

There was a letter from the palace yesterday, saying that Qing Luan was ill again, and Mrs. Xuan came to visit the palace. The old lady just entered the palace this morning, and now she is announcing that they will go there again for the sake of her granddaughter.

Li Ling took the children to play in the back garden, Jingshu changed her clothes, and took Ziyun to Anxi Hall.

When Jing Shu arrived at Anxi Hall, Xu Wanning and Pingyang had already arrived, and the two were sitting under the old lady, comforting the tearful old lady softly.

Seeing this, Jing Shu hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "What's wrong with grandma? But is the imperial cousin seriously ill?"

Seeing that it was Jingshu, the old lady quickly stretched out her hand and pulled her to sit beside her: "My dear, come and sit with grandma."

Although the old lady treats Jingshu the most kindly on weekdays, it is unusual for her to be so warm in front of Xu Wanning and Pingyang.

A bad premonition faintly appeared in Jingshu's heart.

Sure enough, when the old lady saw Jing Shu, her tears fell more urgently. She patted Jing Shu's hand and said, "Grandmother went to the palace today to see your royal cousin, oops! This child is her, her."

Seeing the old lady's unspeakable appearance, Jing Shu was startled and guessed something in her heart. The old lady didn't say anything, and she didn't speak, just sat aside sullenly.

Xu Wanning, on the other hand, has a quick temper. Seeing the old lady's sadness, she said impatiently: "What's the matter with the imperial cousin? Grandmother, tell me quickly, I'm really anxious to death."

The old lady sighed heavily after hearing the words: "I really can't say it, oops! My family is unfortunate, my family is unfortunate."

Xu Wanning frowned, and said anxiously: "But the imperial cousin's illness can't be cured?"

Qingluan's health has always been bad, and the troubles are not good every day, everyone has long been accustomed to it, and if it can make the old lady feel so sad, if it is not safe, it means that the person is about to die.

After Xu Wanning couldn't help but say what was in her heart, she stared at the old lady. The old lady glanced at Xu Wanning, but her eyes fell on Jingshu.

The old lady tried her tears with a handkerchief, looked at Jing Shu and said, "I called the three of you to me, because I have a private matter to discuss with you."

The old lady paused, sighed heavily and said: "A while ago when the Huns invaded, Qingluan was sent to marry him. This child is always timid, and when he learned about it, he became sick from fright. Although the barbarians have retreated, , but she is also suffering from heart disease. This child is her."

"Is the imperial cousin scared to death?" Seeing that the old lady was hesitating and haggling, Xu Wanning asked anxiously.

The old lady tried her tears with a handkerchief, and replied: "That's not true."

As she spoke, the old lady glanced over the faces of the three granddaughter-in-laws one by one, and then said: "Your cousin is just worried that such a disaster will happen to her again in the future, so, why do you want to come to our house?"

How did Xu Wanning and Pingyang know that Qingluan was thinking about Li Ling, and he never dared to think about it.

When Xu Wanning heard this, she immediately replied: "What is she coming to our house for? Does she want to stay here until she descends? Will His Majesty agree to her descending from our place?"

Ping Yang also followed suit and said: "I'm afraid this is not in compliance with the rules? The princess is already old, if she comes to live here permanently, this, wouldn't it be disrespectful. If there is a mistake, how can we bear it?"

The old lady didn't know the absurdity of this matter. The old man wanted to force his face all his life, but in the end he was forced by his granddaughter to do such a shameful thing that made the younger generation hate him. The old lady felt as uncomfortable as fried.

She was silent for a long time before she calmed down her turbulent mood. She lowered her head deeply and said, "Your cousin means that she wants to descend to our mansion and spend the rest of her life here."

What the old lady said made Xu Wanning and Pingyang even more puzzled.

Xu Wanning glanced at Jingshu, who had been sitting by the side without saying a word, and then at Pingyang, who was bewildered. She asked in a daze, "Is the imperial cousin going to come down to our house? Where are there any unmarried girls in our house?" man?"

Seeing that the old lady was silent, Xu Wanning said anxiously: "What kind of trouble is the emperor's cousin going to do? Grandmother, please tell me quickly, she is really anxious to death."

After another long silence, the old lady slowly raised her head, looked at Jing Shu who was sitting on the side, and said with difficulty: "Shu'er, you are the most sensible, what do you think about this?"

It is true that the old lady loves Jing Shu, a prudent and respectful granddaughter-in-law, but she really cannot remain indifferent to her granddaughter's threat of death.

Seeing the old lady asking Jing Shu for her opinion, Xu Wanning, being straightforward, still didn't turn the corner for a while, and said casually: "This matter is too absurd, even the second younger siblings who have always had their own opinions, I'm afraid they don't have an idea. "

Ping Yang saw something strange, but couldn't help but sweat for Jing Shu.

Jing Shu treats people generously and has a gentle temper. Who would not want to be a sister-in-law with such a person? If the stubborn and crying Princess Nine takes advantage of her status to occupy the magpie's nest, I am afraid that this family will not stop for a while, Pingyang Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Pingyang moved her lips, but she didn't know how to speak. She was born in the royal family, and she was used to such injustices since she was a child. The imperial power overrides everything, and it cannot be changed by manpower. Besides, the death of the two aunts of the Li family has always been the old lady's fault. Heart knot, now it can be seen that the old lady is also on Qingluan's side.

Jingshu, a little woman from a humble background, has no strength to defend herself in front of the imperial power and the old lady.

Thinking of this point, Ping Yang couldn't help feeling sad, and looked at Jing Shu with deep sympathy.

Jingshu naturally knows the importance of Qingluan in the old lady's heart. In the past, the old lady could pretend to be confused and vague for the sake of the overall situation, but now Qingluan is clearly at the bottom of the boat, and the old lady can't ignore her granddaughter.

Today, the old lady can be so open and honest in front of their three sisters-in-law, she has already made a decision in her heart.

There were mixed feelings in Jingshu's heart. She slowly raised her head, met the old lady's earnest gaze, and replied, "I am definitely not in charge of such a big matter. What are you thinking, grandma? Is it just Looking for a safe haven for the imperial cousin? Have you considered her future happiness?"

When the old lady heard this, she dodged her eyes guiltily, sighed and said, "Qingluan is too stubborn, weak, sick, sensitive and thoughtful. If you say something that doesn't please you, such a person may not be a sign of longevity. , I really can't care so far now, I just want to bring her to my side, with my old bones, I just take care of her day by day, and it's also because of my tragic death for the government. daughter's atonement."

As she said that, the old lady burst into tears, took Jingshu's hand, and begged in a low voice: "Shu'er, grandma knows you are a sensible child, please let Qingluan enter the house, grandma promises you, She is just carrying a false name, after she enters the mansion, grandma will let her live with me in An Xi Tang, it will definitely not affect your life with Bo Yue."
