As soon as he entered the gate of King Jian's mansion, Jian Ye felt a kind of depression in the air, Jin Zhong slowed down the speed of the carriage, and whispered to Jian Ye and Rong Qingyi in the carriage in a low voice: "There seems to be something wrong in the palace." ”

Jian Ye lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced outside, and there was a faint sound of crying.

"Listening to the voice, it seems to be Aunt Zhou. Rong Qingyi said softly, "Babbling, it seems that I am purely crying to outsiders, there is no white curtain hanging in the palace, it should not be a matter of human life." ”

Jian Ye nodded, "This scapegoat should have something to do with Aunt Zhou's side." ”

"Luan'er's matter?" Rong Qingyi was a little strange, "She really cares about her father-in-law, so in this way, Luan'er's matter is really related to her father-in-law." ”

"Sue sù Xiaoqian, take Zhao Jiangxuan back to rest, without my consent, she can't leave the courtyard where she is grounded casually, if she wants to leave, you can also let Jiang Shiwei send someone to pick her up." Jian Ye said to Jinxi, "Li Yujin will definitely want to see her and ask about what happened." ”

"Yes. Jin Xi agreed, jumped from the front of the carriage, and walked towards the carriage that Zhao Jiangxuan was riding.

Jian Ye and Rong Qingyi got out of the carriage, went back to the backyard first, and did a simple wash, although the carriage was spacious and comfortable, and they were very tired after sitting for a long time, so they changed into more comfortable clothes, and then they went to Princess Jane's courtyard together to ask for peace, and left for a few days, and when they came back, they had to see Princess Jian to rest.

Rong Qingyi specially brought some items back from the country where Princess Ning was married to Princess Jane, and the two brothers followed the two with the box in their arms, and they didn't see anything wrong on the way.

"It's because the concubine is not strict in discipline that makes such a incident, please sister must punish the concubine, so that the concubine can feel at ease. It was indeed Aunt Zhou's voice, supported by a slave maid, wiping her eyes and standing in front of Princess Jane's courtyard door wiping her tears, and her voice said in a complaining voice, "Where did you think that girl would have such a thought in her heart, the concubine has always cherished her, although she is just a slave who serves the concubine, the concubine is also wholeheartedly to her, no less than her own children, it is really a shame for the concubine." ”

Jian Ye and Rong Qingyi glanced at each other, and continued to walk towards the courtyard, the slave maid guarding the gate of the courtyard saw the two of them at a glance early, and immediately a person turned around and went in to report, and then turned sideways to welcome the two of them into the courtyard, but still did not let Aunt Zhou enter inside.

"Ye'er, you can be regarded as coming back, you must help Aunt Zhou, you can't see death without saving it. Aunt Zhou also saw Jian Ye and Rong Qingyi, so she didn't pay attention to Rong Qingyi, but stepped forward and grabbed Jian Ye's sleeve, pulled it tightly and refused to let go, crying in her mouth and said, "Your mother, she refused to see me, saying that it was my slave maid who harmed the slave and maid who served her." Aunt Zhou has begged here for a long time, and your mother refuses to see me, and your father also complains about me, saying that I am not strict in disciplining slaves and maids, and this kind of thing is made, so that he can't help me say a few good words. You can definitely help Aunt Zhou. ”

"What's wrong?" Jian Ye didn't break free immediately, looked at Aunt Zhou, and asked softly.

There is a sense of alienation in this gentleness, which sounds just a politeness, but Aunt Zhou pretended not to hear it, and immediately said in her mouth: " It's all my fault, it's my slave and maid, and the slave and maid who served your mother, that is, the Luan'er girl had a quarrel, and actually started to move, my dead slave and maid shot a little harder, and pushed the Luan'er girl into the well, almost lost her life, she was also afraid, so she hurriedly ran away, and didn't think to save the Luan'er girl, fortunately, the Luan'er girl was a great blessing, and was rescued, the girl heard that the Luan'er girl was rescued, and your mother wanted to investigate the matter strictly, so she committed suicide by hanging herself, I only then knew what happened, and immediately rushed to explain to your mother, confess, but your mother refused to see me。 ”

Rong Qingyi thought: I don't know what Luan'er's situation is now? It stands to reason that no matter whether it is true or not, Aunt Zhou is also the former wife of Prince Jian, and because of Princess Jane, she became a side room, since she personally came to apologize for her slave and maid, it must have been personally told by Princess Jian, why did Princess Jian refuse to see her?

"Mother likes Luan'er the most, she has always been served, she has an accident, my mother must be very sad in her heart, besides, even if it is a temporary quarrel, this is not to give my mother face, and at the same time not to give Aunt Zhou a face. Jian Ye said softly, and gently pulled out his sleeves, he has martial arts, so he can naturally pull it out without a trace, "I just came back from the country where my sister married, and I went to see my mother first, this matter you said, my mother will have her own solution, Jian Ye is not good to say." ”

"You can't ignore Aunt Zhou. Aunt Zhou refused to let Jian Ye fool her like this, and immediately raised her voice and cried.

Rong Qingyi seemed to say unintentionally: "Fell into the well?

"She-" Aunt Zhou hesitated, and said in a tone of chagrin and helplessness, "Her eyes were blind, and the doctor said that she hit her forehead, and somehow she was blind, your mother she-"

"Can't see your eyes?" Rong Qingyi gasped lightly, with a worried expression, and said slowly, "No wonder my mother-in-law is sad in her heart, the slave maid who has always served her mother-in-law the most is so close to her mother because of a temporary quarrel, and her good eyes can't be seen, not to mention how to serve her mother-in-law in the future, it's just that her own life is sad." If this is spread out, those who know that there is a little temper between the slaves and maids, and only that the two slaves and maids are not sensible, and those who don't know will definitely say that even the niece of the Queen Mother is bullied again, wouldn't it make Aunt Zhou more guilty for no reason?"

Aunt Zhou was stunned and glanced at Rong Qingyi.

She didn't think about it so much, she only listened to Prince Jian's arrangement, covered up the matter of Luan'er falling into the well, and sacrificed the most powerful slave beside her for this reason, in order to make Princess Jian believe that Luan'er's accident was indeed a dispute with her own slave and maid.

"The Queen Mother is very busy, where can she take care of these trivial things, she is just a slave who serves people, and it is also worth knowing the Queen Mother. Aunt Zhou said a little reluctantly.

Rong Qingyi shook her head slightly, "Sister Luan'er is naturally different from other slaves. ”

"No matter how different it is, she is also a slave who serves people. Aunt Zhou didn't dare to talk back to Jian Ye, but seeing that Rong Qingyi, who had always been weak and bullied, was now talking to her like this, she forgot for a while that she was blamed by Jian Ye and Princess Jian and even the Queen Mother because of Rong Qingyi's affairs, and said happily in her mouth, "Where is it more expensive than the master's gold, Luan'er is blind, this is a result that cannot be changed, I will give her more silver, but she got cheap, find a slave to serve her well, no better than her being a slave!"

Rong Qingyi sighed softly, "Aunt Zhou is an old man, how can she say these childish words, it is the blessing of Sister Luan'er to be able to serve her mother-in-law, even if someone is serving Sister Luan'er, I am afraid it is not as good as Sister Luan'er still staying by her mother-in-law's side." Besides, no matter how much the slave maid is serving, she also has the face of the master, and Sister Luan'er is serving Princess Jian of King Jian's mansion, Princess Jian is the niece of the Queen Mother, which does not give the Queen Mother face. If the Queen Mother asked, her father-in-law would inevitably be punished, you are your father-in-law's side room, because your slave and maid impulsively made these things, it's really-"

As he spoke, he sighed softly, shook his head slightly, and no longer paid attention to Aunt Zhou, and walked into Princess Jian's courtyard with Jian Ye in front, Aunt Zhou was stunned and forgot to stop her.

Jian Ye smiled slightly, "Qingyi, your mouth is really powerful, I have never been like this before." ”

"I used to save face. Rong Qingyi said half-truthfully, "I think she is an elder, it's not good to say something ugly, now I can think about it, I don't owe her anything, why should I be bullied by her, no matter how I please, I don't necessarily like everyone, forget it, I'd better please myself." ”

Jian Ye nodded slightly and smiled lightly.

"You're back. Princess Jane's expression was a little lonely, and when she saw Jian Ye and Rong Qingyi walking in from outside, she had a little smile on her face, "Luan'er, serve tea-alas, you look at my memory, I still don't get used to Luan'er not being by my side, come here, go make a pot of tea." ”

Outside, Aunt Zhou's crying was still babbling, like a song.

"Mother, where is my father?" Jian Ye smiled slightly and asked gently, "He won't hide, will he?"

"Hmph, I don't know where to hide. "Princess Jane said hatefully," No wonder as soon as he heard that Luan'er had an accident, he immediately didn't let Weiniang find out about the matter, it turned out that he knew early on that this matter was inseparable from Aunt Zhou's woman, hum, and came to fool the mother, what to say, but a slave who served people, not worth making a fuss, hum, think about it, a headache for the mother, Luan'er is a slave who serves the mother, who in the palace doesn't know that she is the personal slave of the mother, someone dares to do it with Luan'er, or Aunt Zhou's person, or the slave she believes in the most, this is not to make it clear that she can't get along with the mother, she is just looking for the mother, Luan'er is just unlucky, crying here, the mother is not dead, this is crying or adding to the blockage！”

"Yes. Rong Qingyi said gently, "She has always been a narrow-minded woman, and her mother-in-law must not be angry with this kind of person." Jin Zhong, go outside the door and talk to Aunt Zhou, just say that the little boy wants to talk to his mother-in-law about the major affairs of the country where Princess Ning is married, and she wants to be quiet, if she is tired of standing, go back to rest, if she still feels guilty and wants to ask her mother-in-law for forgiveness, just stand outside the door, don't make a noise!"

Jin Zhong immediately put down the box in his hand and turned to go out.
