The soft beauty is very good at flirting, and the soul of the ascetic prince is floating

Chapter 12 Destiny leads to effect, Song Jingzhang is crowned king
  "This slave has misunderstood the master's wishes. This slave deserves to die!"

"Do you regret it? If you had chosen to take the life contract and leave the house, although you might not be as rich as you are now, your life would not be in danger."

Xiao Huan shook his head, "Master has already admitted the risks and opportunities at that time. This is my choice. How can I regret it?"

Gu Wanyu closed her eyes and fell asleep, listening.

For the first time, I felt some admiration for my maid,

"As long as you don't regret it, go down first."

"Yes." Xiaohuan glanced at the bottle containing the antidote again, then gritted his teeth and backed out.

With a "squeak" sound, the door was closed tightly, and then she opened her eyes.

Of course she lied to Xiaohuan,

She's just an ordinary little maid, so how could the owner care?

The poison Xiaohuan took was hers.
  And what she ate in front of the head of the house at that time was just ordinary strengthening pills that had been prepared and replaced.

His fingers unconsciously rubbed the jade pendant beside him and murmured: "Sister, you saved my life again."

Her parents died when she was young, leaving only her elder sister Gu Wansheng to depend on her. In order to make ends meet, her older sister recommended herself to the Lu family and was trained by the head of the family.

At that time, she didn't know what the so-called "Yangzhou thin horse" was. She only knew that her sister was getting more beautiful every day, and she knew more and more people every day. She often came back quietly to tell her about what she saw and learned in Lu Mansion.
  She thought that life would get better and better until her eleventh birthday,
  My sister's eyes were red and she came back with a big bundle in her arms. She told her that a senior official from Shengjing had taken a fancy to her and was going to Shengjing.

Seeing that her sister was unwilling, she suggested that they should leave quietly, stay away from Yangzhou, find a place unknown to anyone, and start their life again. The money they had saved these days would be enough for the rest of their lives.
  But my sister said she had taken poison.

Under her repeated questioning, her sister only described the appearance of the poison and asked her to quietly search for the antidote without making any noise. If she could find it, she could go to Beijing. When the sisters would get together, they could stay away from everything and live happily.

Before leaving, I gave her this jade pendant.
  She was reluctant to leave, but could only watch her sister leave. She secretly made up her mind to find the antidote as soon as possible and go to Beijing to reunite with her sister.

As a result, I searched day after day, but couldn't make any progress.
  But in the end, the news came that my sister was dead, not even a body was left behind.

I was extremely grieved and spent countless wealth, but I only found out that after my sister came to Beijing, she first became a concubine to Zhan Shi, the young master of Zhan Shi's mansion.

I didn't want to be favored by Yong'an Hou Jiangling for a banquet, but I didn't know that Yong'an Hou's wife Fang Xu was extremely jealous. She couldn't bear to see her sister being favored by Jiang Ling, and she beat and scolded her every day.

Even after his sister was pregnant, he used a scheme to kill one corpse and two people. He hated his sister as a thin horse from Yangzhou and had a low status. Jiang Ling didn't care at all and just said "It's a pity".

Filled with hatred, she vowed to avenge her sister.

So she changed her name to Yu Niang, sold herself to the Lu family, and became a Yangzhou thin horse. Relying on what her sister had seen and learned, she gradually became the one who won the heart of the family the most.
  After waiting for many years, someone from Shengjing finally arrived.
  Perhaps God was also helping her, and the one who came turned out to be Marquis Yong'an.

Under the arrangement of the family head, she came to the house at night and used all the tricks she had learned in the past, and finally got a promise to take her to Beijing.
  But whoever thought about it found the wrong person,
  "It doesn't matter, you can go to Beijing." She comforted herself, and it was not too late to make plans after going to Beijing.

Long before entering the Lu Mansion, she had prepared the same poisonous body-building pills as her sister described.

Sure enough, before leaving, the head of the family also asked them to take poison.
  When she was young, she grew up in the market and loved to watch sideshows. Watching them every day, she also learned some small and strange tricks. She just secretly changed pills. They were very light.
  As for the small ring,

She needed someone to actually take the poison to confuse the family owner, and she didn't want to leave any chance of exposing any traces.
  Having been together for many years, I already knew Xiaohuan's true nature clearly, so I first misled her with words, and then seduced her, and as expected, she willingly took the poison.

Even if Xiaohuan uncharacteristically chooses to take the body deed and leave the house, it doesn't matter.
  She had arranged for Xiaohuan early in the morning, and when Xiaohuan left the house, she would secretly deal with her to avoid future troubles. As things turned out as she expected, Xiaohuan would rather take poison than give up the opportunity to gain glory and wealth.

"Sister, don't worry,"

Gu Wanyu stood up and looked at the blue sky in the distance, with a fierce look in his eyes.
  The head of the Lu family, the young master of the Zhan Shi Mansion, Zhan Shi, the Marquis of Yong'an Jiangling, and the Marquis of Yong'an's wife Fang Xu,

She will not let any of these people go!

In the imperial city under the same blue sky,
  In the morning, after an hour of discussion,

The atmosphere was not as lifeless as before, instead, uncharacteristically, whispers could be heard from time to time.

After the discussion among the ministers, Emperor Jingtai waved his hand, and the servant beside him took out the bright yellow imperial edict, stepped forward, and read loudly:

"By God's blessing, the emperor decreed that my third son was investigating the Yangzhou salt policy case, and his strategy was appropriate and he made great contributions..."

The people below were kneeling on the ground, with different expressions on their faces.

Song Jingzhang, however, had expected it. His expression was calm, and he showed no emotion or anger in the face of the various probing glances from different parties.
  "...Promoted to the position of prince, this name is Yong, I admire this."

After the chamberlain finished reciting the imperial edict, he came to Song Jingzhang and said, "Your Highness King Yong, please accept the edict."

Song Jingzhang raised his hands and respectfully received the imperial edict, "I would like to thank my emperor for long live the emperor."

In the afternoon,

After Gu Wanyu finished practicing the piano as usual, she went back to the bedroom to take a nap. When she woke up, she saw the very warm face of Nanny Lin.
  The eyebrows moved slightly, "Mommy, you don't have to guard me personally. You can just let Xiaohuan and the others do such small things."

"This is just the old slave's responsibility. How dare you break the rules just because of your wife's favor?"

Mother Lin brought a cup of soup, "This is the red date, bird's nest and white fungus soup that the old slave specially ordered Grandma Sun to make according to the health-preserving recipe given by Dr. Wu. Can you still eat it after you try it?"

The lid of the soup cup was removed, and the aroma overflowed, immediately occupying the entire room.

My stomach, which has always had little appetite, was slightly agitated at this time.

He glanced at Xiaohuan calmly,
  Xiaohuan secretly shook his head,

She curled her lips and smiled, reaching out to take the spoon handed to her by Granny Lin, and drank spoonful after spoonful until she finished drinking.

Gu Wanyu wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, "It really tastes great. Thank you so much, mama, for taking such trouble for me."

Nanny Lin put away the cup and bowl with a smile, "Wherever I deserve a thank you from the madam, it's all the old slave's responsibility."

She smiled back,
  His eyes circled around Nanny Lin.

Although I don’t know what happened in these few hours, I saw that Nanny Lin’s words and deeds were much more respectful.

After all, he couldn't make too much trouble, so he lowered his eyes and said:
  "I've had a day's rest and I feel a lot better. Besides, the wound is superficial and not a serious injury. I thought it would be better to start learning the rules tomorrow so that I can learn them as soon as possible and put my mind at ease. What does grandma say?"
