"What?!" Duanmu Jun slapped the table and said angrily, "What does she mean by this?" ”

Duanmu He and Duanmu Cang were also shocked, everyone knew what it meant for a woman who had not left the cabinet to return overnight, Li Ningshuang's move, wouldn't it be to ruin Duanmu Qing's reputation, and to make the Yongding Marquis Mansion a joke for the people of Tianjing?

Duanmu Qing didn't have any expression on her face, but she knew very well in her heart that a person like Li Ningshuang would not let go of any opportunity to put herself to death, and this time such a great opportunity was in front of her, and it was not her style to let it go.

"Father," Duanmu Qing said coldly, even with a hint of chill in his eyes, as if he didn't intend to hide it at all, "The daughter did not return overnight after being taken captive. ”

Duanmu Jun was stunned, of course he knew, but he was just worried about his daughter's comfort, and when he saw that his daughter was still fine, he naturally wouldn't think of anything else.

But when Li Ningshuang found out about this matter, she didn't think about how to get the person back, but couldn't wait to make a big deal about the whole thing, as if she wished that others didn't know.

Suddenly, I remembered that Duanmu Qing was taken away after coming out of the Qi State Mansion last night, and the person who kidnapped her was going to take her life without saying a word, and now she didn't succeed, and today the news of Duanmu Qing's abduction was immediately released.

It was clear that he wanted her life again and again.

Hearing the chill in his daughter's words, Duanmu Jun naturally knew that his daughter Bingxue was smart and had already guessed something.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Duanmu Jun patted his daughter's emaciated shoulder, "Qing'er, don't worry, Daddy won't let you be wronged." ”

Duanmu Qing opened a pair of big eyes, with dew in his eyes, but his tone was very resolute, "Daddy doesn't believe in his daughter's innocence?" ”

"What are you talking about?" Although the tone was stern, it was not difficult for people to hear the love and forbearance inside, "How could Daddy not believe you." ”

"Qing'er, what kind of person are you, others don't know, we are your family, can you not understand? Even if there is any gossip outside, we just don't hear it. Duanmuhe's rare anger came to his face, and he said calmly.

Duanmu Cang turned his face and glanced at him, but he didn't speak.

Taking a deep breath, Duanmu Qing looked at Duanmu Jun steadily, "Daddy, today's matter is already like this, if you and your brothers and even the people who practice Xiaju all testify for your daughter, saying that your daughter has been practicing Xiaju all along, I am afraid that it will be difficult to block Youyou's mouth." ”

Duanmu Jun naturally knew this, so he was so angry, he never thought that it was the woman in his back house who caused such trouble, and suddenly thought of how many people would ridicule his daughter, and his chest felt stuffy.

"So, my daughter has a solution." Duanmu Qing spoke immediately.

One sentence made everyone turn their faces to look at her.

"Ordinary people will be said to be bribed when they speak, and our family members will inevitably cover it up when they speak, so we have to ask a very weighty person who has no personal education with our family to come out and prove it."

"It's really okay, it's just ......" Duanmu Jun nodded, frowning tightly, "Where can I find such a person?" ”

Everyone in the court knew that the people in the Yongding Marquis Mansion were kind and kind, there were almost no discordant people, and they did not participate in any faction, but they were friendly with almost all the meritorious families of civil and military officials, and it was indeed very difficult to find a person who was highly respected and did not deliberately cover up for the sake of friendship.

Walked quickly to the kang table, picked up the jasper Buddha hand on it, and smashed it into his ankle.

This action was so fast that no one reacted, and by the time she realized what she was doing, the thing in her hand had already been smashed.

"Qing'er, what are you doing here?" Duanmuhe and Duanmujun exclaimed at the same time.

Cai Wei and Shui Sanniang hurriedly stepped forward to pick up her trouser legs, and her snow-white ankles were already red and swollen.

"Last night, because of what happened in front of the official road, we were afraid of a curfew, so we had to take a small road, and when we passed by the Zhenguo Mansion, the carriage hit something and overturned, and my foot was injured.

The eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion sent someone to help me in to rest, because it took some time to ask the doctor, and the curfew had already fallen, so I didn't have time to rush home.

Cai Wei went to the Yongding Marquis Mansion early in the morning to inform me that my father and brother came to pick me up. ”

Duanmu Cang looked at Duanmu Qing in surprise, she was only twelve years old, and she said that she would do it to herself, without mercy, and to come up with such a solution in such a short period of time is really not something that ordinary people can do.

"Will the people from the Zhenguo Mansion help?" Duanmuhe couldn't help but be a little worried.

Duanmu Jun fell into deep thought, he has always tried to maintain neutrality in the court, and the relationship between several princes is almost the same, except for the maiden town of the Nine Emperor Princes and Concubines, but there is no friendship.

That's because the Zhenguo Mansion has always been introverted, even if it is important, it still abides by its duties and has never exposed any bad intentions.

Although it has long been allocated as a party of the Nine Emperor Princes, in fact, the Nine Emperor Princes and the Zhenguo Mansion abide by their duties as courtiers in the court, and never compete for merit, and Concubine De is also very low-key in the harem.

Everything seems to have no interest in the battle for the throne.

If they are disguised, then they have been disguised for more than ten years, which is also a kind of ability, and if they are not disguised, it is also very admirable.

It is precisely because of this that the Zhenguo Mansion has always been very respected by the official eunuchs in the court, but the meritorious families have behaved very indifferently towards them, so that they have a feeling of being alone.

So, how can we get the people of the Zhenguo Mansion to take action?

"The father sent someone to take this to the town to explain everything, and the daughter believes that they are willing to help with this."

Duanmu Qing said, taking out a small jasper lotus seed from his arms.

No one has seen this thing, and I don't know what Duanmu Qing means by this, but looking at her expression, he is very determined.

At this time, there is really no better way, Duanmu Jun nodded, and still called Duanmu He's little guy, and according to what Duanmu Qing said, let him go to the Qi State Mansion.

The room was quiet for a while, Shui Sanniang had already retreated, she knew that the stakes were important at this time, if she accidentally revealed something, she was afraid that Duanmu Qing's reputation would really be ruined, so she still had to go down and take a good look at the store, as usual.

Cai Wei helped Duanmu Qing to sit on the chair on the side, her eyebrows frowned, how much effort did she have to use just now!

I couldn't help but feel pity for my young lady again, my wife was no longer there, and Li Ningshuang was in charge of the house now, and I couldn't tell when I would come out like a poisonous snake and bite it.

looked at Lu Xi on the bed again, now she is also injured like this, life and death are uncertain, I don't know if I can wake up.

Duanmu Qing had no expression on her face, just waited quietly, because she knew that Mrs. Xu would definitely come over, and that jasper lotus seed was given by Concubine De, because her nickname at home was Bilian, and the people of the Zhenguo Mansion knew what it meant when they saw it.

Compared with her calmness, Duanmuhe's handsome face was a little anxious, no matter whether the people of the Zhenguo Mansion helped or not, if this matter leaked out, I was afraid that it would have a great impact on the Yongding Marquis Mansion, and collusion between officials and ministers was inevitable.

Duanmu Cang was thinking about what the lotus seed Duanmu Qing took out was and what it represented.

"Big brother, I know that you have always looked at me unpleasantly, and you have always disliked me, but I hope you can understand that today's matter is not only a matter of my Duanmu Qingqing's reputation, but also related to the reputation of our Yongding Marquis Mansion, so I also hope that you will keep today's matter secret for me for the sake of the same blood that flows on us."

Unexpectedly, Duanmu Qing suddenly spoke, and he was still talking to himself, Duanmu Cang was a little stunned, but then he felt very annoyed.

What does she mean by that? Isn't it true that you don't deserve to be trusted, "...... you say?"

"Big brother, it's not that I doubt you, but people are like this, and they will have special trust in the people they like, and they don't care what they say, but big brother, you should know that people who have a good relationship with you may not have a good relationship with me Duanmuqing."

The original anger was immediately extinguished when he heard this, and he knew that she was talking about Duanmu Zi.

Duanmu Cang suddenly thought, if Duanmu Qing didn't say this, Zi'er asked if she would say it?

Thinking about it again, this matter was provoked by Li Ningshuang, does Zi'er know it? If she had known, would she have stopped it?

He really has no way to be sure.

A sound of footsteps came from the top of the stairs, and then Duanmu Qing saw Mrs. Xu, the eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, walking in with Princess Fu Zhen and a young woman.

That woman was naturally Mrs. Xu's eldest daughter Xu Chang'an, with a quiet smile on her plain face, which made people feel gentle and amiable.

"Oops! It's all my fault, yesterday I hurriedly found a doctor to see the eldest lady's injury, but I forgot to send someone to inform the Hou Mansion earlier, and it was really unexpected that such a thing happened today. ”

The first thing Mrs. Xu said when she entered the door was not to greet everyone first, nor to ask the truth of the matter first, but to say something like Balala.

Such a reaction surprised everyone except Duanmu Qing.

Duanmu Qing smiled slightly, "If it weren't for Madame's concern about Qing'er's injury, with your intelligence, how could you forget, where would Qing'er dare to complain, but at this time, I have to trouble Madame to accompany me home." ”

"It's nature."

After a while, a few people secretly went to the Zhenguo Mansion, and then went all the way from the Zhenguo Mansion to the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

Hearing that someone outside had come to report that Mrs. Xu was coming to the Zhenguo Mansion, Li Ningshuang was full of joy, and only thought that a noble person had come to inquire about the situation, and immediately pretended to be very sad on his face, and went to greet him with the maid's hand.

Duanmu Zi didn't have a reason not to step on it at this time, and immediately hugged Li Ningshuang's other side.
