Nangong Sheng didn't take back the Qishan jade, but asked, "This chalcedony is beneficial to Ling Mei's condition, and Miss Xue refuses to accept it, is it because Shi Yue once gave the girl a piece of jade that is about the same?" ”

"Yes, it is precisely because Mr. Zeng asked his cousin to give him a piece of jade, so I can't accept the reward of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson." When facing Nangong Sheng, Xue Ling decided to tell the truth.

Nangong Sheng took the piece of jade in his hand and played with it casually in his hand, "I just said that Miss Xue is smart, how can she not know that it is from the hand of Shi Yue?" Just now, I thought you would deduce that it was to make your cousin cut his love. ”

Xue Ling knew that what she said was the right first step.

After two lives, playing games with others, she didn't dare to take it lightly.

"Self-deception, Xue Ling is not so stupid, not to mention that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson has already taken out this Qishan jade, and Xue Ling's matter should be investigated clearly."

Nangong Sheng smiled heartily, "Miss Xue is really a second person, but Miss Xue accepted Shiyue's Qishan Jade, but she refused my reward, didn't she give me an explanation?" ”

Xue Ling lowered her eyes slightly, "If you receive a little bit of kindness, you will be reciprocated by a spring, just because Xue Ling accepted the things given by Mr. Zeng, in order to repay this favor, she waited for three months,"

Xue Ling smiled, "Therefore, I won't accept the same thing again." His Royal Highness should understand this feeling, people should not be insatiable, our sisters have already got a piece, how can we covet the second piece, in the future, His Royal Highness the eldest grandson has something, just give an order, as long as Xue Ling can do it, he will never shirk. Accepting this chalcedony, I will definitely have trouble sleeping. ”

Nangong Sheng laughed, "I accept Miss Xue's explanation, I have heard that the Xue family practices witchcraft and is good at demagoguery, but I didn't expect that even the powerful generals around me couldn't escape." ”

Without waiting for Xue Ling to answer, he said again, "Even I'm a little more curious about Miss Xue." ”

Xue Ling said, "His Royal Highness the eldest grandson doesn't have to joke with my little girl, if the woman of the Wu clan is good at demagoguery, why do I have to work so hard?" ”

Nangong Sheng said meaningfully, "If you want to work less hard, with your talent, there are more methods." ”

Xue Ling shook her head and said with a smile, "Xue Ling is just an ordinary woman, she can't think of so many ways, and now this road, although it is hard, it is down-to-earth." ”

Xue Ling said.

Nangong Sheng finally said, "Since Miss Xue refuses to accept it, it's okay, when Miss Xue leaves, I will reward it according to the custom." ”

Xue Ling bowed and retired.

Nangong Sheng looked at Xue Ling's distant back, as if he was thinking.

His eyes fell on the brocade box on the table, and he called the attendant, "Put it away first." ”

"Your Royal Highness, why doesn't Miss Xue accept it?"

"She's just worried that she'll become passive if she takes it."

Nangong Sheng looked at the attendant with a look of incomprehension and said, "Take it." ”

Walking out of Nangong Sheng's courtyard, Siyu's legs and feet were still weak, "Girl, if you reject the things of the emperor's eldest grandson, will you blame him, just now, I was so worried." ”

Xue Ling shook her head, "No." A character like the emperor's eldest grandson pays more attention to the result, and now that the choice of the witch lord has not yet begun, he will not put a lot of thought into me, it is just a temptation. ”

Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, what about the witch master's test?" ”

Xue Ling said with a smile, "That was two months later, aren't you worried about it a little earlier now?" ”

Siyu laughed, "What about Mr. Zeng, is the reason that the girl just said true?" ”

"Naturally, it's true, I received Mr. Zeng's things at the beginning, and it took three months for this favor to be paid off, but it involved more things, I don't dare, and I can't accept such things."

"Let's go," Xue Ling didn't want to mention it again.

When I returned to the courtyard, I saw a woman standing in the courtyard, "Miss Xue, I want to see the girl of the Xue family." ”

Xue Ling looked over from a distance, and a gorgeously dressed woman in her fifties was making a lot of noise at the gate of the courtyard.

She only had one look to know who this woman was.

This is the government office, if you don't want this woman to come in, no one can let it in, in other words, someone specially let this woman in.

Xue Ling stepped forward and said, "This is the old lady of the Zeng family." ”

The woman was a little surprised.

Before she came in, she had already thought of a whole story.

Unexpectedly, Xue Ling revealed her identity at a glance.

After the surprise.

"Miss Xue, please," the old lady Zeng looked Xue Ling up and down, her eyes were not good, but she still forcibly suppressed her emotions and continued with low eyebrows.

"Is it because the Zeng family was disposed of? And then you came to beg me? Xue Ling asked.

Mrs. Zeng had a feeling in her mind that she couldn't turn around, "Yes, no," she said incoherently.

Xue Ling didn't give her this opportunity. "This is a decision made by the emperor's eldest grandson, you came to beg me? Is it asking the wrong person? ”

"It's because I offended you," Mrs. Zeng almost blurted out.

"Offended me?"

Xue Ling smiled coldly.

"I was ordered by the court to come to help the north to ask for rain, the Zeng family was born as the witch master of the north, I don't want to share the worries of the local people, but for my own selfish deeds, now a sentence offends me, you can wipe out the matter. This matter has never been related to me, if you think that the head of the Zeng family has been wronged, you can go to His Royal Highness the eldest grandson to shout grievances, and now it is just a waste of time to talk about this in front of me, and it will not help? ”

Old Mrs. Zeng opened her mouth, choked on Xue Ling's words, and was speechless.

She tried to refute, but couldn't say a word.

Xue Ling waved her hand, "This old lady, you have found the wrong person, you should go to the emperor's eldest grandson, not to find me a little woman, I can't help you, old lady, please go back." ”

After Xue Ling finished speaking, she had already picked up the teacup to send off the guests.

Old Mrs. Zeng still refused to leave, but grabbed Xue Ling and said, "Miss Xue, the method of applying wax was thought of by me, and it almost caused the girl's life to die here, I know that I shouldn't come over to disturb the girl, and I beg the girl to say a few kind words in front of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, let my son go, and I will bear all the blame." ”

Reliving a lifetime, Xue Ling is not as hard-hearted as iron, but he is not moved by this old lady Zeng.

The prosperity of the world has fallen, and joy and sorrow have never been connected.

If it was he who fell down the steps that day, who would feel sorry.

To sympathize with the enemy is to be sorry for yourself.

Xue Ling exhausted her patience and called Siyu, "You went to find your cousin, asked him to find someone to come over, and invited this old lady out." ”

Siyu was just about to go out.

I saw a familiar figure enter the courtyard gate.

For some reason, when Xue Ling faced Zeng Yi now, he always felt a little unnatural.
