Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 152 Slap him in the face (6)
After hearing this, Shou Changbo's face became softer, and he said softly: "Don't worry, I will find a way to do what you said. It's just a moment of anger at the imperial concubine's place, and it will be better after I get angry. gone."

He turned his eyes to look at Wanqing again, but suddenly his eyes shrank, he stared at Wanqing's chest without saying a word, his expression was grim and strange, almost completely different from his gentleness and elegance just now.

Seeing him like this, Wanrong couldn't help frowning her eyebrows. After all, it is not a glorious thing for a future husband to stare at his sister's chest, let alone in front of her.

Wanqing was also baffled by Uncle Shouchang, so she couldn't help but lower her head to check herself, only to find that the jade pendant given to her by Shangguan Yeli had been shaken out of her collar when she jumped off the car just now.

Does Shou Changbo also know this jade pendant?What exactly does this jade pendant represent?What's the secret?
She deliberately held the jade pendant in her hand, raised it a little higher, and looked at it in front of her eyes. Out of the corner of her eye, she watched every move of Shou Changbo. Sure enough, Shou Changbo's eyes followed the jade pendant. Unstoppable strange light.

Wanrong also saw some clues, and deliberately asked: "The third sister's jade pendant is so special, I have never seen you wearing it when I was at home before."

Wanqing laughed and said: "Isn't it? It's really interesting to talk about this jade pendant. I was playing in my mother-in-law's yard that day, and I happened to see something shiny. When I got closer, it turned out to be It's a jade pendant, I liked it, so I picked it up and put it on my body."

What she said was pure nonsense, but when she saw Uncle Shouchang's body was visibly shaken after hearing this, and there was a trace of suspicion in his eyes, Wanqing put the jade pendant back into his collar calmly.

Uncle Shouchang had suppressed his hostility and completely recovered his elegant demeanor: "Since it's something you picked up, it's better to return it to others."

"Well, that's what I thought too. After I play for a few more days, I'll take it back and ask to see who dropped such a good jade pendant." Wanqing had a bright smile on her face, innocent and pure, It's hard to believe she's lying.

At this time, Lin suddenly sent Wang Momo in to urge: "Someone from the palace has reported that the fourth girl is going to be beaten to death with a stick."

Wanqing was stunned when she heard that, didn't she just say that she was just punished to kneel?Why are you going to be beaten to death again?

Wanrong was also a little puzzled, with an anxious and worried expression on her face, she said to Uncle Shouchang with a trembling voice: "Uncle, fourth sister..."

Uncle Shouchang hurriedly comforted her and said, "Second Miss, don't worry, I will go to the palace to inquire about the news now."

Not everyone can enter the imperial palace. Although Wanrong is engaged to Uncle Shouchang, she is not married after all, and there is no imperial edict in her body.

Even though Wanqing has the status of the son of Jingninghou, she can only hand over the name stickers and wait outside the palace. If the imperial concubine refuses to be summoned, Wanqing has no choice but to turn around empty-handed.

Uncle Shouchang is quite powerful in the court, and there are many acquaintances in the palace. Even a prince like him can only rely on getting some news from the palace. If he wants to enter the harem, unless he is summoned, he must unable.

After hearing this, Wanrong and Wanqing hurriedly put on their hands and saluted, and thanked Uncle Shouchang.

Saying goodbye to Uncle Shouchang, the two sisters Wanqing and Wanrong walked out of Uncle Shouchang's mansion. Speaking of which, Wanrong, an unmarried woman, came to meet her fiancé again and again, which was really against the rules of etiquette. When Mrs. Bo died of illness, she helped Uncle Shouchang take care of the family affairs, and she had already violated the rules many times. Although some things were not in compliance with the rules, but they were done more often, it became a common thing. People forget it when they talk about it. , and more importantly, Shouchang Boquan is powerful, and people around him don't dare to talk about it indiscriminately.

Outside Shouchangbo's gate, Mrs. Lin was walking back and forth anxiously like an ant in a hot pot. When she saw Wanqing and Wanrong coming out, she stepped forward and dragged Wanqing's hand and left. Wanrong sneered behind her. "Third sister, it's not so easy to enter the palace gate. Although you are the wife of Jingninghou Shizi, you haven't been granted an edict after all. Why is the imperial concubine willing to see you?"

Lin let go of Wanqing, turned around, came up and threw a slap at Wanrong, cursing: "I raised a white-eyed wolf. These years, I have loved and spoiled you a lot. Now your sister is dying." , are you still talking sarcasticly?"

Wanrong calmly grabbed Lin's hand and bared: "How much does mother love me? Shall I list them one by one, what have you done to me?"

She approached Lin closely, grabbed Lin's hand and slammed it violently, Lin staggered and almost fell, Wang Momo rushed over to support Lin, and said, "Second Miss, what do you say? It's too unfilial, you are going to get married, and my wife has been working hard on your marriage every day for a while, people speak according to their conscience, how can you marry a good one, forget about it."

Wanrong laughed out of anger when she heard this, and squinted at Lin and said, "It's my mother who wronged me. What I said to the third sister was not to prevent her from entering the palace to help the fourth sister, but to remind her to use ordinary It must be difficult to get in, and it is even more difficult to see the imperial concubine."

Lin was stunned when she heard that, she didn't expect Wanrong to say such a word, she didn't know whether to be angry or to laugh, she squeezed out a dry smile and said: "You...do you have a solution?"

Wanrong stretched out her hand and looked at the huge jadeite ring on her finger, and said: "Of course there are ways, but mother also knows that if you want to do things in the palace, you must arrange it. If you want to manage it, you need money Yes, this is a life-saving matter, and I don’t know how much money my mother can give me?”

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin hurriedly took out a stack of bank notes from her bosom. Wanqing glanced at them from a distance, and saw that most of the bank notes were 100 taels, and there were as many as a dozen of them. She thought that Mrs. Lin had done enough when she went out. prepare.

But when Wanrong saw it, she bared lightly with disdain: "It's just such an idea, the fourth sister's life is too cheap." While talking, she came over to La Wanqing: "Third sister, let's go, the wife just doesn't care. Sincerely, if we want to save the Fourth Sister, there is no reason why we need to contribute money or money."

Lin gritted her teeth, and took out another stack of banknotes from her bosom. This time, the banknotes were all five hundred, and there were dozens of them. Wanqing roughly estimated that there must be several tens of thousands of taels of silver. She was afraid that she had moved all of the Gu family's family here. You know, Mr. Gu's annual salary is only more than 100 taels of silver, and with the harvest from the farm shop, it is only a few thousand taels a year. Paying tens of thousands of taels of silver, I'm afraid not only the Gu family's family fortune, but also Lin's own dowry will be emptied.
