Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 136
"You go back first, don't come to me these few days, and don't bother with these messages when you hear them, trust me, there will be an answer within three days."

"But."

"Okay, don't you believe me?"

Jing Ning calmed Lan Yao without changing his face, and finally coaxed her cheeks to no longer be puffy, and the thin red color on her face, which represented anger, also subsided. Then she turned back and told the boy: " Send someone to clean up the place, and close the gate if there is nothing to do from now on, and check if others come to visit. As for the people outside, don’t bother with them, and don’t drive them away, let them go.”

The servant at the door answered in a low voice, and after Jingning passed by, he uncharacteristically raised his head and glanced at her. The daughter of the Zheng family had a reputation of being an unknown disaster star and disrespecting the royal family. Zheng Jingning actually ordered him like this. Ms. Men's plan is something ordinary people can understand, but she just doesn't know how long Zheng Jingning, the master, can do it with such a reputation.

At this time, Jing Ning was not flustered at all, and went back slowly to have her meal as usual, played chess for a while, and had a cup of tea, and sat on the bed as the sun was setting.Wen Xing saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. It was not good to urge the young lady to hurry up and find a way, and he hated himself for being an elm-brained person. His anxious eyes were red, like a rabbit, but he didn't know how to speak.

"Wen Xing, what's the sound outside?"

Jing Ning leisurely turned a page of the book and asked.

"It's Cai'er in the second lady's yard talking about you with the sweeping old lady, do you want it?"

"Got it, go and close the window."

"But, miss!"

Wen Xing couldn't bear it anymore, the tears of grievance for his master were spinning around under the candlelight.

"Are you really just letting them talk about you like this! Wen Xing knows that Wen Xing's saying this is overstepping, but miss, you can't just let those things outside abuse you like this!"

Jing Ning turned a deaf ear, still looking at the book in his hand, and said, "Then what do you think I should do?"

"Wenxing doesn't know."

"I thought, if you're still awkward with your handkerchief, your newly painted nails will be ruined."

"Miss!"

Jing Ning finally put the book in his hand on the table that he was leaning on, and said, "There are some things that I didn't want to tell you. It's for your own good, and I'm afraid that you will be exposed to the wind for a while. But look at you. It’s not right for me to be the master. Anyway, I’ll tell you this. But you need to remember well, what I’m going to say next, you are not allowed to tell your relatives and friends Say, don't tell the old lady, and don't tell Xiao Yuan, Lan Yao and the others."

"Yes, slaves know the importance." Wen Xing replied.

"Those people outside are just relying on rumors to spread that I am a disaster star for the country, which is harmful to the country's fortune, and even more difficult for relatives and friends. Fish, these rumors would have been useful in the old days, if you really want to check them, it’s not easy to drag them one by one, the big guys don’t bother to tell the truth from the fake and just want to chew their tongues before and after tea and dinner. If I don't show off the lintel, this reputation will be ruined."

Wen Xing nodded.

"What about now? They say that I have no royal family, that I am a lone star of heavenly evil that harms the country, and that it harms the destiny of the country. And I, the lone star of heavenly evil, happen to be the daughter of the prime minister of the current dynasty. The daughter of the prime minister’s family, went out with the friend of Yu Shiqianjin, and was talked about by the whole city as a disaster for the country. How big do you think this matter is?”

"Officials of the Qin Tianjian, my father's cronies, the empress of the palace, the prince from the east, and even the emperor, will all be involved. But what about me?"

"In the end, I just happened to run into a group of dead fish while passing by the water where they were staying."

At this time, Wen Xing was in a restless state, and he was sweating profusely when he heard this. The cold sweat on his body in the cool room actually soaked through three layers of clothes.

"This basin of sewage was just right. It's just that they were too greedy and found a basin that they couldn't hold back to pour it in. Just wait and see, within two days, there should be some movement in the palace. Now , come and change my clothes, it’s getting dark, it’s time to go to bed.”

"Yes." Wen Xing obediently stepped forward to help his young lady take off her robe.It looks the same when I put it on this morning, and it still looks the same when I take it off at night, there is no wrinkle at all.Looking at his handkerchief that was about to be torn, Wen Xing couldn't help but deepen his admiration for his young lady.

It is said that the master and servant on this end slept soundly all night, Xiao Lin on the other end asked the servant in black: "How is the situation over there?"

"Nothing happened, Miss Zheng stayed put, but Zheng Xiuning was a little restless, jumping up and down in the mansion."

"Oh, smart people have smart ways to live, and stupid people naturally have stupid ways to die. Got it, go down."

Xiao Yuan asked: "Why are you not worried at all this time?"

"There is already news from the palace." Xiao Lin said, "Since there is nothing wrong, I will go back first."

Xiao Yuan watched the silent elder brother leave, and couldn't help offering a cup of tea to her unmarried sister-in-law in her heart.

The Zheng family didn't have the rule of having breakfast together, so Jing Ning just ran into Zheng Xiuning at lunch today.

Zheng Xiuning, who was restless all day yesterday, was very arrogant today, and he couldn't help showing a trace of schadenfreude in his eyes when he looked at her. He couldn't help but sneer after eating less than half of the meal: "Some people can't sit still." Live? I don’t know who ordered the servants at the door of our house to close the door yesterday. The door is closed in the blue sky and daylight. Doesn’t it look like a family that has done something wrong? I’m really on behalf of my father. Grandmother is not fair, no matter how old she is, she still has to suffer such crimes for her daughter."

Wen Xing was about to take a step forward to complain about his young lady. Thinking of what he said to his young lady yesterday, he retracted his outstretched foot, silently bowed his head to serve his young lady's meal, stopped talking, and looked at the second young lady with restrained eyes. Can't help but a little more contempt.

Zheng Xiuning saw that no one blamed her for saying such inappropriate words. Recently, the upbringing nurse who was extremely strict with her also lowered her head and did not speak. She sipped the soup in a proud manner, sat for a while and couldn't be idle anymore, and just about to speak, a servant girl ran in straight away scrambling and crawling.

"It's not good, Second Miss, the palace issued an imperial edict to reprimand you, saying that you are not virtuous, that you are jealous of Eldest Sister, punished you to contemplate for two months behind closed doors, and rewarded Eldest Miss with a lot of things. The old lady has already received the order. Go out and have a look!"

"what!"

Zheng Xiuning couldn't help but exclaimed.To be reprimanded by the royal family, this is a big deal!In the future, when she goes out to visit friends and discuss marriage, she will be pointed out and discussed. What's more, once the imperial decree is issued, the previous public opinion will not be mentioned again. This time, it didn't hurt Zheng Jingning at all. Take it in!

Jing Ning, who had been eating with his head down all the time, finally raised his head, looked at Zheng Xiuning and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the matter is not over yet."
