Chapter 242: The Return of Friends
Regardless of whether Princess Jin sincerely regrets apologizing, or intentionally falsely flatters her, for Chen Jiayu's sake, Lin Shuran will not bother with her anymore, so she said with a smile: "Whatever the princess said, the truth has been revealed. Let's not talk about the past, we will keep in touch in the future!"

Hearing what Lin Shuran said, Princess Jin nodded in satisfaction, and even approached her hand affectionately, patted her and said, "You are still a sensible and kind child, as long as you don't get angry with Auntie again, Auntie will not be angry with you again." I don't know how happy I am!"

Lin Shuran is not very used to Prince Jin touching her so familiarly, but she still resisted the discomfort and did not take her hand away. However, Chen Jiayu who was at the side saw this scene, and hurried over with a smile. The concubine said that Mrs. Dingyuanhou's wife, Mrs. Yuan, had arrived and was looking for her to talk.

Princess Jin let go of Lin Shuran's hand as soon as she heard this, and then took a few wives who followed her to find Mrs. Yuan Shi, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou. Today, Mrs. Yuan Shi, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, is the one she really wants to curry favor with. VIP.

Lin Shuran breathed a sigh of relief, with a relaxed expression on his face, Chen Jiayu couldn't help smiling, approached her and joked in a low voice: "My mother-in-law is very good at changing faces, it's overwhelming!"

"Understood!" Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu smiled knowingly, but they also felt pity for Chen Jiayu in their hearts. Thinking about meeting such a mother-in-law who can "change her face", her life in the palace will not be much easier.

"Okay, what are you two whispering behind my back? Are you talking bad about me?" At this moment, a voice came from behind the two of them, which startled both Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu, and they turned around immediately. Seeing Lei Yingying looking at them with a smile on her face.

"Yingying, when did you come back? Why didn't you disclose any information?" Both Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu thought they were delusional, but Lei Yingying, who was originally in Yunzhou, suddenly appeared in front of them.

Lei Yingying walked towards the two of them slowly, with a triumphant smile on her face, and said: "I just came back, I have a surprise for you, I heard that there is a banquet here, so I ran here!"

"You are still the same as before, you just like to be busy!" Chen Jiayu was also very happy to see her friend come back, she took the two of them to Xiaozhu in the back garden and sat down, and told the servants not to disturb the conversation of the three for the time being, anyway, outside With her mother-in-law, Prince Jin, dealing with the guests, and two side concubines bent on replacing her as the future hostess, she happened to be at leisure.

The small building is elegant and quiet, surrounded by green bamboos. There is a pond beside the building. When you open the window, there will be a breeze. Occasionally, you can hear a couple of birdsong, which is very tactful, crisp and pleasant to the ear.

The three casually sat down at the table, unexpectedly Lei Yingying opened her mouth and asked the two of them: "I heard that many rare things have happened in the capital in the past few months, tell me quickly, what's there?"

Lin Shuran saw Lei Yingying stretching her neck and looking curious, she exchanged a glance with Chen Jiayu, looked at her and asked, "What do you want to know?"

"Naturally, it's the newest thing. I heard that the regent of Xia Kingdom and Princess Qingyang were stabbed and seriously injured when they stayed together overnight, and they can't see anyone now!" Lei Yingying said, staring at Lin Shuran with bright eyes.

Who said that the ladies in ancient times were shy and introverted and didn't talk about right and wrong, and those romantic affairs were even mentioned, and they felt like insulting her ears and personality, and then looked at Lei Yingying in front of her, she didn't have a little bit of it at the moment. The state's daughter and official's wife behaved like a little lady who loved to listen to gossip and gossip.

"Sister Lei, aren't you in Yunzhou to accompany your husband in disaster relief? Why are you still so concerned about what happened in the capital? This is how fast you know the news!" Chen Jiayu only knew that Lei Yingying used to be greedy for excitement, but she didn't Thinking of her curiosity is not so heavy.

It seems that the romance between Duan Jie, the regent of the Xia Kingdom, and Princess Qingyang of the Jin Dynasty was kept a secret, but in fact, many people knew about it, and it was spread secretly among the mansions in the capital, but everyone No one dares to bring it up for discussion.

"The disaster relief is over. Now Yunzhou is doing well, and there is nothing wrong. I came back. On the way back, I heard people talk about this new thing that happened in the capital. When I saw you, I naturally wanted to ask about it! Is it true?" Lei Yingying asked eagerly with a smile.

"I don't know!" Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu shook their heads tacitly and said in unison.

"Ah——" Lei Yingying seemed a little disappointed, as if the two of them didn't satisfy her curiosity, she said in disbelief, "How is it possible? One of you is the concubine of the palace, and the other is the wife of the general. Is the news true or false? Why have the ordinary people outside heard about it?"

"I've heard it all? What does it mean?" Lin Shuran looked at Lei Yingying in confusion and asked, and Chen Jiayu also looked at her in confusion.

Lei Yingying told the two that on the way back from Yunzhou, she heard those people in the market secretly talking about the new things that happened in the capital, saying that the prince of Xia Kingdom and Princess Qingyang of our dynasty had an accident more than 20 years ago. Some people have seen them together before their own eyes, and they were even caught in bed by the high prince's son-in-law. That's why the high prince's son-in-law didn't show up all these years because he felt ashamed to face others.

"Those people are so eloquent, I thought it had been spread in the capital, but you don't know. But in all these years, I have never seen that high concubine!" In addition to being interested in the gossip news, she also found it strange that in the past, as long as the imperial court deliberately concealed any news in the capital, it would not spread so quickly, but this time it seemed that someone deliberately spread it outside.

Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu have never heard about Gao Consort, they only know that he is Princess Qingyang's painstakingly obtained husband and the father of the playboy Gao Zhan. Even if this man is dead or alive, people who probably know not much.

"Sister Zhu'er, the imperial concubine is talking with someone inside, don't allow other people to disturb!" At this moment, the voice of the servant girl beside Chen Jiayu sounded outside Xiaozhu.

"Crack!" Suddenly there was a slap, and another haughty female voice sounded, "Bitch, you dare to stop me at will. It was the princess who asked me to come to the princess. I missed the princess's important matter. You are a cheap life!" I can't afford it!"

The three people in Xiaozhu could hear the voices outside clearly, Chen Jiayu's complexion changed, and she became displeased, she was very familiar with this voice, one was her handmaid Qiu'er, the other was a person next to Prince Jin. The eldest maid, Zhu'er, is also the maid who just climbed into her husband's bed and thought she was about to turn a sparrow into a phoenix.

"Your maids in Prince Chun's Mansion are really amazing!" Lei Yingying stood up and said loudly to the outside on purpose.
