Volume 1: Born of Vengeance Chapter 25: A Rare Peace
Since a farce a few days ago, the Zuo Xiangfu seems to have calmed down, although he knows that this is just the calm before the storm, but even Ning Zhiyun can enjoy a few days of peace.
"Miss, the slave maid specially made honey lotus osmanthus soup with milk crisp for Miss." Su Rui said and brought up the fruits of the hard work of the morning on a porcelain blue and white tray.
"Miss, you don't know yet, our Su Rui's craftsmanship has really grown more and more, and even the eldest princess and the lord of Liuyun are full of praise when they taste it." Su Rui was left in the eldest princess's mansion that day to make snacks for the eldest princess, so she was not involved in the right and wrong in the mansion.
"How could the eldest princess think of eating the snacks you made for no reason?" Ning Zhiyun remembered that she had no contact with the eldest princess's mansion, not to mention that there was nothing in the princess's mansion, how could it be rare to have dim sum made by a slave in a minister's mansion.
"It was the ninth princess who praised the slave's dim sum for making it well, and said that even Prince Yu couldn't help but eat two more pieces." Su Rui blushed a little as she spoke, as if she was embarrassed to be praised like that.
"Su Rui, Grandmother Fang Cai sent some good Su embroidery, I left one for you, you can't lose the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion when you go to the eldest princess's mansion in a few days."
Su Rui saw that Ning Zhixuan would keep any good things for herself, so she immediately reddened her eyes and said: "Miss treats the slave and maid so well, and the slave and maid will die and will not repay the great kindness of the young lady!" ”
"Say what dead and alive nonsense." Su Xin was afraid that Su Rui would not be able to hold back her crying, so she hurriedly pushed her out and said, "You go and see if the cloth is suitable?" I'm here to serve. ”
Seeing Su Rui happily walk out of the back room, Su Xin walked up to Ning Zhixuan and said with a smile: "That girl is the most greedy on weekdays, when did she become so interested in her daughter's clothes, and she ran away without a trace." ”
Su Xin was originally a joke, but it made Ning Zhixuan's heart suddenly tighten, she would not forget that in her previous life, in order to control Su Rui, the Bai family's mother and son deliberately sent the face-saving steward around her to deceive Su Rui's true heart.
"Su Xin, go and send the Yunguang brocade sent by my grandmother to Ling Bao Zhai to rush out with a pair of clothes, and I can wear it when I go to the eldest princess's mansion in three days."
Yun Guangjin was the old lady who gave Ning Zhiwen alone, not even Ning Banghua's side, and now Ning Zhijin actually wants to wear that Yunguang Jin to the eldest princess's mansion, isn't it clear that she wants to tear her face with Ning Banghua!
"Miss, in a few days, the eldest lady will go to the eldest princess's mansion with the young lady, will the young lady wear that cloud brocade too flamboyantly?" Su Xin cautiously reminded Ning Zhixuan.
But now Ning Zhihua is going to tear her face with Ning Banghua, in the past, Ning Banghua took every step of the way, and never made a mistake by half a step, but because of the disparity in strength between them, Ning Banghua didn't put Ning Zhihua in her eyes at all, but once Ning Banghua found out that Ning Zhihua threatened her status, could she still play a sisterhood with her as hypocritically as before? In this way, it is not in vain that Ning Zhiyun has been making a little bow to her before, and the more humble she was before, the more she could make the opponent unable to calm down when she counterattacked.
Although Ning Zhiwen is weak now, if she wants to shake the Bai family, she has no intention of shaking the tree, but no matter how difficult it is, she has to go step by step, even if it is dangerous, she has to fight desperately. If it is a big deal, there may still be life if she dies, but if she takes a step back, with the ruthlessness of Bai's mother and son to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, I am afraid that it will be difficult to solve the pain in her heart. Although Ning Zhixuan thought clearly, she couldn't bear to follow Su Xin and Su Rui to her.
"Su Xin, you don't have to follow you to the eldest princess's mansion in a few days, just ask a few little maids to follow me." Ning Zhixuan felt that Su Xin was too eye-catching with her in everything, and wanted her to avoid Bai's gaze.
Su Xin watched Ning Zhixuan fight all the way, seeing that she was infected with a strange illness and was not suitable for going out at the beginning, to later getting the elixir to attend the palace banquet, and now her name has spread to the eldest princess's mansion.
"Miss, Su Xin was originally just a lowly slave in this prime minister's house, and Miss didn't give up to understand that there are some things in this world that she could fight for by herself, and Su Xin was willing to accompany Miss to fight with the sky!" Su Xin knew Ning Zhixuan's concerns, so she calmly said her heart, "Even if Miss wants to protect Su Xin, the Bai family may not be able to see Miss's thoughts. ”
Ning Wanhua of Qionghua Pavilion was so angry that he swept all the tea sets on the table to the ground because he heard that his grandmother had rewarded Ning Zhiyun with Yunguang Jin.
The Bai family was a hundred satisfied with her daughter, but she also knew that Ning Wanhua had been pampered since she was a child, and she could still take care of the overall situation in front of people, but when she heard that Ning Zhixuan's cheap girl not only retreated, but also won the pity of her grandmother because she was scratched by Zhou's hand, the anger in her heart couldn't be suppressed.
"Mother, originally we wanted to use Zhou's hand to make my father disgusted with that little slut." Ning Banghua fought with Ning Zhiyun several times, but now he really feels that he has underestimated Ning Zhiyun, "But that little slut did something behind his back, and he easily left himself clean between retreating and advancing." ”
"Hua'er really thinks it's the little slut who poisoned the four girls?"
"It's not the little slut who poisoned it, could it be the Zhou family's ......," Ning Banghua couldn't help but be shocked when he said this, "Mother means that the Zhou family poisoned his daughter?" ”
Ning Banghua felt that it didn't make sense for the Zhou family to poison Ning Moru! Could it be that someone in the world would gamble on his daughter's life to frame others, not to mention that Ning Moru is just a concubine's daughter, Ning Fanzhi will not lose the reputation of the entire prime minister's mansion for her, at most he is just disgusted with the person who poisoned her.
"Hua'er, mother knows that you have been spoiled by your mother and your father since you were a child, but no matter how down-and-out Ning Zhixuan is, she still occupies the position of wife and daughter after all." The Bai family understood Ning Banghua's identity, and he would never understand the despair in Aunt Zhou's heart as a humble concubine.
In fact, at the beginning, the Bai family was also sincerely grateful to the Ye family for her kindness, but as Ning Banghua and Ning Zhiwen grew up, looking at the smart daughter who was short of Ning Zhiwen's sick seedlings everywhere, she began to be afraid that Ning Banghua would be a concubine like her in the future.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Ning Banghua didn't understand why her mother suddenly became so cautious, "Mother, you are the daughter of the Bai family, the cousin of the imperial concubine, my aunt loves me the most, if I can marry into the royal family one day, I must make Ning Zhixuan, that little slut can't survive, can't die!" ”
Bai's no son, she pampered Ning Banghua to grow up, and poured all her hopes and hopes for the second half of her life into Ning Banghua, this daughter also followed her temperament, the only thing that worries Bai's is that Ning Banghua has been too smooth sailing since he was a child, and forbearance that has not experienced hardships is not real forbearance, otherwise why would there be a saying in history that there is a "lying salary and tasting courage" to achieve hegemony.
"Hua'er ......" Bai wanted to persuade Ning Banghua more, but seeing the competitive and strong meaning in her eyes, he stopped nagging, thinking that she might suffer some setbacks in the future, so that she could sharpen Ning Banghua's arrogant temperament.
