Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 139

Hearing Princess Lu's words, Zheng Xiuning was so startled that he was sweating all over, and replied, "Yes, stepmother, Xiuning knows, and will definitely study hard from Nanny Fang in the future."

Concubine Lu didn't say anything more to Zheng Xiuning, she looked at Zheng Jingning and said, "Sit down, it's tiring to stand like this."

Looking at Concubine Lu and Zheng Xiuning who was still kneeling on the ground, Jing Ning sneered in his heart. Is this the so-called one willing to fight and one willing to suffer?Is it over if you play a show in front of others, and that Nanny Fang, I don't know if she is really teaching Zheng Xiuning to behave, or helping to frame her.

Jing Ning was wary of the people in front of him, and deeply understood that when he came to Prince Lu's mansion now, he had no one to rely on.Jing Ning knows that every step she takes must be cautious, otherwise one carelessness will lead to an abyss.

Jing Ning sat at the side, looking down at the tea served by the maid, and quietly watching what Princess Lu wanted to do.

Concubine Lu didn't say much, she just drank tea quietly, as if she was more patient than anyone else, when there was a loud noise from outside, Jing Ning looked up and saw that it was Princess Pingting.Jing Ning knew that it would be impossible to pretend not to see it now.

She bowed to Princess Pingting who had already come into the room, but Princess Pingting didn't say a word, she just coldly looked at Jing Ning with her chest in her arms, and after a while she said, "Oh, this is not sister Jingning Well, it's been a long time since I saw Zensheng so haggard, did some recent rumors disturb Sister Jingning's heart?"

Jing Ning smiled, and said, "Princess Pingting is also very clear that my father is not feeling well, and her sister has done such things again, it is very difficult for Jing Ning not to be physically and mentally exhausted."

Seeing Jing Ning just shirk away like this, Princess Pingting snorted coldly, "There are always some people who will find all kinds of reasons to shirk their responsibilities, but they don't know that other people's eyes are clear. She treats others like fools herself."

After hearing Princess Pingting's words, Jing Ning didn't explain much to herself, she just said indifferently, "Those who are discerning have already understood, but there are some people who always hold themselves too high and are taken by others , and relish talking about it.”

"you…"

There was a sound of "bang", and Pingting looked towards the place where the sound came from, and looked at the broken teacup on the ground, and Princess Lu, Princess Pingting, who was sitting on the chair without getting angry. He lost his voice for an instant.

"Look at what you look like. Jing Ning is a guest I invited. As the host, this is how you treat guests? What about the etiquette I taught you before? As a princess, you don't even remember the most basic etiquette?"

Listening to Princess Lu's reprimand to Princess Pingting, Jing Ning sneered in his heart. Zheng Xiuning watched Princess Pingting being reprimanded because of Jing Ning, his eyes flashed, and the nurse standing next to Princess Lu looked at her. Seeing the performance of the people present, he frowned when he glanced at Zheng Xiuning, and ordered the maid beside him to bring another cup of tea.

On the other side, Zheng Xiuning was still thinking about his next plan, so he was bumped straight by a maidservant. Zheng Xiuning subconsciously wanted to hide, but was dragged and fell together. When had he ever been so wronged? Zheng Xiuning was just about to yell, but in an instant he felt sharp eyes falling on him. Zheng Xiuning was covered in cold sweat again, and he dared not move on the spot.

The little episode over there didn't affect Jing Ning and the others at all. Looking at Princess Lu who was still reprimanding Princess Pingting, and Princess Pingting who seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, Jing Ning sat on the sidelines and watched the play leisurely. It doesn't matter whether those words of reprimand were meant by Sang Huahuai to herself, or to Princess Pingting.

Princess Pingting seemed to be impatient with the training, and said, "This is my problem alone? If it weren't for her indiscretion, would there be any rumors? Just because she is your guest, everything will go wrong. push me?"

"Shut up." Princess Lu suddenly raised her voice, "Go back to my room and calm down, and don't come out without my permission."

Turning her head to Jingning again, she said, "I'm telling you a joke, this girl is just like that, but her nature is not bad."

Jing Ning responded with a smile and said that he didn't care, as the saying goes, don't slap your face with your hands, and the emperor's decree was issued so quickly, and Princess Lu's actions were probably involved in it.

In fact, it is true that Concubine Lu deliberately went to the Queen Mother and cried out that she had not disciplined her adoptive daughter well, which damaged the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion.The queen mother told the emperor again.Therefore, the emperor directly issued an edict to criticize Zheng Xiuning without sending manpower to investigate.

Jing Ning began to think in his mind, with Princess Lu's status, she could indeed help him solve this matter, but why would she help him?What's more, to take all the mistakes on Zheng Xiuning?Isn't Zheng Xiuning her beloved adopted daughter?Could it be to insert Nanny Fang into the Prime Minister's Mansion?What is her plan?
Thinking about Zheng Anyan who was still sick in bed, and thinking about what he overheard, Jing Ning was terrified. Jing Ning turned all the possibilities in his mind, but he couldn't think of Princess Lu helping him. A good thing, although it solved the urgent task, it also planted a hidden danger.

And how to solve this hidden danger without risk is the problem that Jing Ning should consider first, and when Jing Ning was in a trance, Princess Lu had already arranged the dishes.

Follow Princess Lu to the front hall.

Unlike when she was with Lan Yao and Xiao Yuan, everyone had a very quiet meal. After the meal, Concubine Lu intended to keep Jingning to stay overnight in Lu Palace, and Jingning winked at Bihua , Bi Hua glanced at Jing Ning, as if suddenly awakened, "Ah, I suddenly remembered that before leaving this morning, Wen Xing told me that someone was coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the afternoon, Miss, we should go back."

After hearing Bi Hua's words, Jing Ning reprimanded pretending to be angry, "Why did I tell you? You forgot all about it so quickly, didn't you see that Princess Lu is still there? It's such a fuss."

Concubine Lu saw Jing Ning's behavior exactly the same as hers just now, the corner of her mouth froze, and she said, "It's okay, your little maid is just too impatient, if there is something wrong, I'll ask Nanny Fang to take you out Bar."

"This is so troublesome to Nanny Fang. We can just go back by ourselves. The princess still needs someone to serve her."

"No trouble, I just let Nanny Fang go with me, and discipline this girl, Xiu Ning, so that she won't be so lawless again."

After hearing this, Jing Ning knew that she couldn't evade it, so she followed Nanny Fang and walked out of the mansion, while Bi Hua moved closer to Jing Ning, alert to possible dangers around her.

Soon the carriage drove to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jing Ning got out of the carriage with Bi Hua's support, looked at the carriage at the gate of her own mansion, and glanced at Bi Hua, Bi Hua looked at Jing Ning, shook her head, and signaled I don't know myself.

Facing Zheng Xiuning and Nanny Fang who also got out of the carriage, he said, "Look, the guests from the prime minister's mansion have arrived, so I'll go to greet them first, and Nanny Fang please do what you want."

Nanny Fang looked at the carriage that did not belong to Jing Ning and herself, and nodded, "The old slave will follow Miss Xiu Ning to her courtyard first, and the prime minister is not feeling well, so the old slave will not bother you. "

Nodding politely, they went to the front hall with Bihua first, leaving Zheng Xiuning and Nanny Fang behind, only to be told that the guests were in Zheng Anyan's room, Jing Ning rushed over, and I saw Xiao Yuan sitting next to Zheng Anyan smiling and chatting with Zheng Anyan.
