Chapter 198: The Way Out

Mrs. Ding'an Hou looked at Xiao Xuan's smiling face, and after hearing her sudden question, she didn't know how to deal with it for a while. She has lived a decent life, and after her two sons died early, the only children close to her in Ding'an's Hou Mansion were Deng Ting and Ding'an's Hou Shishizi Deng Hong. Deng Ting grew up in the Buddhist hall since she was a child, and she was ignorant of the world, although Deng Hong, the son of Ding'an, was dyed with some lustful habits, but she was indeed a filial and obedient child in front of her.

The concubines in the Dinganhou Mansion except for Deng Ting were all brought up by their free biological mothers, and their temperament would be somewhat affected by their biological mothers.

Although she was not close to those concubines, she also sincerely considered them in their marriage.

But she didn't expect her to be a real mistake, and some people were afraid that they would ruin their marriage like the old lady of Ding'an, and wanted to take advantage of the full moon banquet of the eldest daughter of Princess Nan'an to fight hard and find a way out for themselves.

But in case of an incident, the reputation of all the unmarried girls in the Ding'an Hou Mansion will not be saved.

"Mandarin duck, you take someone outside to watch, if someone comes, say that I am not physically strong and will not see the guest for the time being." Xiao Lu coldly commanded the mandarin duck.

Xiao Xuan said this, because he took into account the face of Princess Nan'an Mansion and Ding'an Hou Mansion. But as long as she is a person with a heart, the meaning of her words is also simple and clear.

"Brother Parrot, you go and pick a few sturdy mothers-in-law, and follow you to the courtyard of the green forest to invite Miss Shu from the Ding'an Hou Mansion to me. There are a lot of guests in the house today, so I must let her come with you quietly, you know? ”

Mrs. Ding'anhou is Xiao Lu's maternal aunt, and Xiao Lu is more willing to get close to Mrs. Ding'anhou than her ridiculous and useless uncle Ding'anhou.

Compared with the three concubines who were greedy every time they came to the princess's mansion, Xiao Lu didn't care about it at all, but she only treated Deng Ting, who grew up under the knees of Mrs. Ding'anhou, and gave some affection.

Deng Ting is naΓ―ve, but she can also understand her eyes, and she easily does not come to Xiao Lu.

Brother Parrot and Mandarin Duck got Xiao Lu's order and went out quietly with someone.

"I thanked my sister for today's incident." Today, several imperial brothers have come to the mansion to congratulate, Deng Shu's goal is that if the children of other families have nothing to do with Xiao Lu, but if her mind is too big, not to mention how the imperial brothers react, several sisters-in-law will not get along. "My cousin is not sensible, she walks around the house, and she ends up working on her sister, which is really embarrassing."

"Big sister is serious, today is the full moon banquet of the eldest sister of the eldest sister, I will never watch anything happen to the big sister's mansion today." There was an accident in Xiao Lu's house, and the person who caused the trouble was still her cousin, if such a thing went out, it would not be good for Xiao Lu.

Deng Ting, who was half a beat slower, also reacted at this time, although she was ignorant of the world, she also knew that if the sisters in the house made trouble, she would definitely be implicated.

Xiao Xuan sighed and pressed on her shoulder.

"Uncle, I remember that Sister Shu is now the oldest in my uncle's mansion, right?" Xiao Lu watched Xiao Xuan's movements, turned her head and said softly to Mrs. Ding'anhou. "She shouldn't think much about her marriage, if she is obedient, I can still add a dowry to her, if she is disobedient, she doesn't have to marry, I will find a nunnery for her to let her go out of the house to repair, don't stay in the house and teach other sisters."

"The concubine has written it down." Mrs. Ding'anhou's face was gloomy, and she lowered her head and whispered.

"Uncle doesn't need to think about it, today's incident is fortunately found out in time." Xiao Lu spoke out to appease Mrs. Ding'anhou. "Besides, the girls in the house all grew up in front of their biological mothers except for Sister Ting, and a group of aunts can teach what good girls are. In the future, unmarried girls in the house still need a separate yard to live in. ”

"Mother." Deng Ting took a few steps forward and walked to Mrs. Ding'anhou.

"Sister Ting, let's go out first." Mrs. Ding'an Hou didn't want Deng Ting to know any dirty things.

"Mrs. Ding'anhou, I think if you really want Sister Ting's good, you should let her stay." Xiao Xuan said.

"Yes, aunt, Sister Ting is not a child anymore." Xiao Lu agreed with Xiao Xuan's opinion. "There are some things that let her know that it doesn't hurt her."

Brother Parrot went for a while, and then escorted Deng Shu, who was gagged with a cloth, back.

When Deng Shu saw Xiao Lu, Xiao Xuan and Mrs. Ding'an Hou sitting in the room, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground with weak legs.

"Sure enough, it's good-looking." Xiao Xuan took a closer look at Deng Shu's appearance at this time, and praised with a smile.

Deng Shu's appearance can be called beautiful, her skin is deceitful and snowy, and she has a slender body with a waist and willow shoulders, such a beauty is rare even in the harem, but I didn't expect a concubine in the Ding'an Hou Mansion to give birth to such a stunning appearance.

It's no wonder that Deng Shu wanted to fight with his outstanding appearance.

"Sister Shu, do you know what is wrong?" Mrs. Ding'an Hou cheered up and asked sharply.

Xiao Lu waved his hand, and Brother Parrot stepped forward and took out the strip of cloth that was blocked in Deng Shu's mouth.

"Mother, I was wronged." Deng Shu's eyes rolled, and her eyes fluttered in front of Mrs. Ding'an Hou with tears. "I'm just lost in a courtyard, why Brother Parrot wants to bring someone to forcibly escort me over, I don't know anything."

"I don't know anything, and I can still shout injustice as soon as I open my mouth." Xiao Lu snorted softly. "Sister Shu, are you really fooling us?"

"Cousin." Deng Shu cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and explained to Xiao Lu in the future. "I really don't know anything."

At this time, Brother Parrot whispered something in Xiao Lu's ear, and Xiao Lu's face became deeper and deeper.

Deng Shu originally took the money to buy off a servant woman who was cleaning in the main courtyard, learned about the courtyard allocated to the male guests today, and bought off the people in the courtyard, wanting to pretend to be a female guest who came to change clothes by accident, and collided with the prominent male guest.

She thought that today was the full moon banquet for Xiao Lu's eldest daughter, in order to cover the face of the princess's mansion, when the matter was muttered by her own maid, Xiao Lu would settle the matter and make her own decisions, so that her wish would come true.

"Heh, I really didn't know that Sister Shu was so ambitious." Xiao Lu listened to the details, but she didn't expect Deng Shu's idea to be really guessed by her. "You don't look down on the children of ordinary families, and you want to collide with my imperial brother, and then ask me to come forward at least to find a side concubine position for you."

Mrs. Ding'an Hou looked at Deng Shu in shock, who was completely unveiled by Xiao Lu and was relieved of the ground, she really didn't expect Deng Shu to really have such a big courage to dare Xiao to enter the prince's mansion as a side concubine.

"Cousin." Even if Deng Shu was crying, her appearance was not deteriorating in the slightest, and the tears in the beauty's eyes were even more intoxicating. "Cousin, wouldn't it be a waste if my mother hastily married someone with my appearance? If I can enter the Qin Palace, serve His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and wait for His Royal Highness the King of Qin to enter the East Palace in the future, wouldn't it be good for my cousin to have me by His Royal Highness the King of Qin's side? ”

It's just a pity that everyone present is a woman, and Deng Shu's efforts were in vain.

After she said this, Xiao Lu and Mrs. Ding'an Hou turned their heads to look at Xiao Xuan in unison.

"I really didn't expect that you were looking at my brother-in-law." Xiao Xuan got up with a smile, slowly walked to Deng Shu, squatted down in front of her, and said face-to-face with her. "I didn't expect you to have a good eye."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xuan's face changed color suddenly, and he raised his hand and slapped Deng Shu in the face fiercely.

Deng Shu didn't expect that Xiao Xuan, who had been smiling, would suddenly get into trouble, and was hit by Xiao Xuan so that his head was tilted to one side, and the corners of his mouth hurt like tears.

"Deng Shu, if you hear a word from your mouth about my eldest brother, I will immediately have your tongue pulled out." Xiao Xuan hid the usual smile on his face, and coldly grabbed Deng Shu's shirt and threatened.

Xiao Xuan finished threatening, let go of Deng Shu's clothes, and stood up again.

"Please atone for the princess." Mrs. Ding'an Hou was also annoyed that Deng Shu not only did not repent, but also talked about the candidate for the reserve seat even more unscrupulously, she immediately got up and knelt down, and Deng Ting also hurriedly got up and knelt down with her. "The rebel woman in the house does not choose to speak, and the concubine has no way to teach."

Lu Lin handed Xiao Xuan a handkerchief to wipe his hands, Xiao Xuan's face faded and returned to normal, and he stepped forward to help Mrs. Ding'anhou.

"Madame, get up." Xiao Xuan had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were cold. "But I think that Deng Shu's method should not have come up with it alone, and it is not something that she can buy the money in the eldest sister's mansion, and she should go back and clean up the inner courtyard. None of the people present today will spread these words, but if Miss Fuzhong gets the sweetness this time, there will be another one to imitate in the future, and it will not be me and my eldest sister who can cover up for the Ding'an Hou Mansion. ”

Mrs. Ding'an Hou closed her eyes, and opened them again after a while, and she already had a decision in her heart.

"The two princesses rest assured, when they go back tonight, Sister Shu will accidentally break her hand and drink medicine and break her throat, and she will not be able to write or speak from now on. The concubine will choose a family for her and send her out of the imperial capital as soon as possible. After Mrs. Ding'an Hou finished speaking, Deng Shu finally changed her expression, and before the scream in her mouth could be sounded, she was gagged by the fast-eyed parrot brother, and she had to struggle and whimper. Her birth mother will be bedridden tonight with a cold and will die tomorrow. ”

Mrs. Ding'anhou didn't want to careless of people's lives, but she didn't want an aunt and a concubine to cause trouble and drag down the Ding'an Hou Mansion.

"Since my aunt has made a decision, I am relieved." Xiao Lu smiled and pulled Deng Ting to his side. "Presumably my aunt will be in a mess when she goes back to the house today, why don't you stay with me for a few days first, what does my aunt think?"

"It's naturally good that Sister Ting can be by the princess's side." Mrs. Ding'an Hou knew that Xiao Lu was giving Deng Ting dignity, so she agreed. "If she is ignorant, the princess will teach."
