Chapter 116 Unclean Things

After saying this, Xu added another sentence:
"It's okay, I'm not the king of kids, if you don't play, don't play."

It can be heard that she said it doesn't matter, but the tone of her voice is not the same.Haitang and Jin Nuo exchanged glances.

After the two walked away, Jin Nuo whispered, "Sister Haitang, did you hear that, my wife said that she didn't care, but she didn't like it in her heart."

Haitang nodded: "I can see it too. After all, it's the flesh and blood coming out of her stomach. Can you not care?"

Jin Nuo couldn't help but came up with a summary: "It's really weird, the lady doesn't want to talk to the prince, and the son doesn't like to talk to the lady. I really can't figure out what's going on with these three people?"

There were rumors that Prince Ling and Concubine Ling were not getting along. At first, Gao Xiangning didn't care much about it. It wasn't until at the family banquet at the beginning of the month that she saw her cousin coldly treating her cousin sister-in-law that she realized that the situation was indeed serious.

Some people gloated even more when they saw this scene.

The next day, she saw the two maidservants in front of Aunt Yao chatting from a distance, and when she walked up to her, she could hear them talking about how Princess Ling had offended Her Highness, so she was not treated well. It's time to go to court.

"This woman loves to take Joe in front of His Highness. This time it's good, and she took away all her blessings."

Gao Xiangning was pissed off by this nonsense, if she hadn't been well-trained since she was a child, she would have cleaned up these two little hooves on the spot.

After hearing this kind of gossip too much, she couldn't sit still, and tried to find out what was going on over and over again, but her cousin acted indifferent, and kept her mouth shut to her cousin.

As an outsider, she can't intervene in the affairs between husband and wife, so she can only worry on the sidelines.

In March, the weather gradually warmed up, and the flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom.

The laughter of children came from outside.

Gao Xiangning followed the child's voice to find the past, and saw that her eldest son and young daughter were playing with something, and when Xiao Aiqin saw her, she hid the thing behind her.

This little girl seldom does this, so she decided to take something she shouldn't have to play with.

Gao Xiangning walked over and asked, "Aiqin, what's hiding behind?"

Little Aegin shook her head.

Seeing this, Gao Xiangning couldn't help laughing: "Don't shake your head, Mom even saw you hiding something behind."

"I didn't hide anything." Little Aegin still shook her head stubbornly.

Baoji at the side immediately exposed her: "Mother, my sister stole something, so she won't let me play with it."

After hearing this, Xiao Aiqin immediately retorted: "I'm not stealing, I'm just playing with it."

Baoji said to his sister with a stern face: "Brother Yi said, if you don't ask if you take it for stealing, you are stealing it."

Gao Xiangning heard the clue, and stretched out her hand to her daughter: "Come on, sister, show mother what you brought."

The child hesitated for a moment, and finally put the thing hidden behind her in the palm of her hand.

Gao Xiang stared at it intently, and screamed in shock from the thing, retracted her hand, and the weird puppet in her hand fell to the ground.

The two children had never seen their mother lose her composure and stand there in a daze.

Gao Xiangning recovered, grabbed her daughter's hand, and asked loudly, "Aiqin, where did you get this puppet?"

Aiqin thought that she had made a big mistake and offended her mother, so she shook her head, not daring to say anything.

Gao Xiangning stared, and said sharply, "Say..."

Being yelled by her, little Aiqin was so frightened that she shuddered all over, and burst into tears.

Seeing his mother's expression, Baoji immediately became nervous, and quickly said: "I got it from Aunt Yang.".

"Are you sure?" Gao Xiangning turned to look at her son.

Baoji nodded resolutely: "We played hide-and-seek at Aunt Yang's room in the morning, and my sister secretly took this puppet from the drawer in Aunt Yang's bedroom."

Looking at the puppet on the ground full of silver needles, Gao Xiangning became bewildered for a moment.

If she reads it correctly, this is...

If this matter were really exposed, there would definitely be a bloodbath in the palace.

What should she do?
After thinking about it, in the end, she chose to hand over the things to her brother.

Zhao Yan was dealing with business in the study when Gao Jijing knocked on the door and walked in.

"My lord, I have something to report."

Seeing his serious face, Zhao Yan couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Gao Jijing didn't speak, but walked up to him, and put an object in his hand on his desk.

Zhao Yan glanced at it. It was a rather strange puppet with long black hair and silver needles all over its body.

He asked puzzledly, "What is this?"

"My lord has been outside the pass all year round and doesn't know about it. This is called the technique of aversion to victory, and it is a popular sorcery among the people."

Hearing this, Zhao Yan's eyebrows gradually frowned.

I also heard Gao Jijing say: "This technique of disgusting victory is to take the hair and birth date of the cursed person, and cast a suppressing spell, so as to damage the fortune and fate of the cursed person. Otherwise, you will be ridden with a vicious disease, and this kind of person who is full of silver needles is the most vicious curse."

With a suspicious expression on his face, he reached out to pick up the puppet full of silver needles, and asked, "Where did this come from? Who was the one who cast the spell?" While speaking, the puppet was turned upside down.

A spell was stuck on the white clothes of the puppet, and there were a few blood-red characters on the spell: Xu Weiqiu, and a clear date of birth was attached below.His hands trembled, and the puppet rolled to the table.

Zhao Yan's originally calm eyes showed a fierce look, he gritted his teeth and asked again: "Where did this thing come from?"

Gao Jijing looked at him and said, "Xiao Aiqin got it from my aunt Yang's bedroom."

"This vicious woman. How dare..."

Zhao Yan roared at the door: "Come here..."

Soon, two guards arrived.

"You go to Yang's place to search and see how many such unclean things she has."

The two guards had to leave in a hurry.

Gao Jijing looked at the puppet on the table, and asked for instructions: "My lord, do you want to show this to my sister-in-law?"

Zhao Yan pondered for a moment: "No, there is no need to let her know about this matter, you can take it out and deal with it."

Seeing what he said, Gao Jijing couldn't say anything, nodded, and took the things out.
-
Xu Weiqiu loosened the soil and planted a rose in the yard.

Gao Xiangning watched from the side with a soup cup. In fact, she wanted to drink tea, but she was still breastfeeding and should pay more attention to her diet.

Her husband was old-fashioned and didn't like his children to drink the nanny's milk, so she nursed the children herself.

In fact, this is nothing, but there are many things that have to be refrained from.
