Yan Jinxi turned her head away and stopped looking at him. At this time, Yan Ningyan and her personal maid Ling'er, Yan Ningyan was dressed up extraordinarily fancy today, and the limelight was a little overshadowed by Yan Ziran, who was sitting next to Mrs. Yan.

Yan Ziran's face turned dark, and she seemed to be a little displeased, but she didn't show a single thing on her face.

It seems that the Prime Minister's Mansion has not been so lively for a long time, and Old Madam Yan smiled a little from ear to ear.

Yan Ningyan stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "Grandmother, Ningyan wishes you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan." ”

After saying a lot of beautiful words, Yan Ningyan took the brocade box containing the birthday gift from the hand of the maid Ling'er, and then opened it proudly:

"Grandmother, this is the brocade dress that Ning Yan sewed for you by herself......"

Then the guest table was full of words of praise for Yan Ningyan.

"Second Miss is really filial......"

It's just that Yan Ningyan hadn't finished speaking, and when he took the brocade robe, his hand shook, and the brocade robe slipped on the floor.

What the? What's going on? Obviously, I put the hand-sewn brocade clothes into this brocade box...... The one in front of me is a shroud for the dead.

Then there was a commotion in the guest seat, and they were accusing the second lady of the Yan family.

"How could the second lady of the Yan family give the old lady a shroud on her sixtieth birthday? It's not a clear expectation of the old lady......"

"But isn't it, these two young ladies don't know if they don't know their heads."

"You see that the old lady is so angry that her face is blue now......"

……

Yan Ningyan listened to the guests' comments, and became more and more unable to get off the stage, and then she actually said strongly:

"Grandmother, Ning Yan is indeed wishing you a long life, and today is your birthday, Ning Yan will give you a life jacket, isn't this just common sense?"

"Presumptuous." Yan Ziran said angrily, she stepped down from her seat, and then raised a slap and hit Yan Ningyan's rouge-covered face hard, "Don't you think it's embarrassing enough?" ”

For a while, Yan Ningyan's face as white as mutton fat jade had a few more palm prints.

Prime Minister Yan also came over at this time, and sharply instructed his subordinates: "Come on, drag this Yan Ningyan down, lock her in the room and don't allow her to come out, and then clean her up after the banquet is over." ”

Yan Jinxi stood aside calmly and said nothing, in her previous life, you caused her to lose everything, and then died in vain, in this life, she wants to recapture all this, and put all the pain she has endured on the Yan family.

"Don't lock me up...... Don't lock me up, grandmother. Yan Ningyan begged for mercy on the side.

"Bastard thing, shame on people." Prime Minister Yan muttered quietly.

"Father, Ning Yan was wronged, this shroud is not mine, and I don't know that I obviously sewed a blue-purple brocade dress with my own hands, how could I take it out today and become a shroud."

"It's nonsense, will the clothes grow their own legs?" Prime Minister Yan looks like he hates iron but not steel.

The prime minister made a decision and resolutely ordered the family to lock Yan Ningyan in the Ningyan Pavilion.

Yan Ningyan really couldn't figure it out, the brocade clothes were obviously put in the box by the personal maid Ling'er herself last night, how could she take out a shroud today? It seems to be Ling'er......

The dignitaries at this banquet watched a farce and had different thoughts.

"My granddaughter is ignorant, don't be like her." Old Madam Yan calmed down and spoke.

Yan Jinxi's remaining good feelings for this old lady Yan have been exhausted, and she is really pampered and connived at this Yan Ningyan, and even a big mistake like a curse can be tolerated.

Later, according to the process, Yan Jinxi also gave the old lady a birthday gift prepared by herself, but because of the incident of Yan Ningyan that happened before, the old lady was not in a mood, and even had an ugly face.

The national teacher Jing Yan just tasted tea lightly, admiring the farce of Prime Minister Yan Cheng's mansion today, he just said lightly:

"Clever indeed."

The noble concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Chu actually gave a birthday dress to her own grandmother's birthday.

What an appalling thing! Presumably not today, this matter will definitely become a joke among the people of the capital after dinner.

Two hours later, the birthday ceremony ended hastily, and because of Yan Ningyan's farce, the Yan family was not in the mood.

Yan Jinxi walked towards Xilan Yuan alone in a low-key manner, but found that a tall and handsome man was already standing in front of him.

National teacher Jing Yan? It's really a narrow road, why is this birthday banquet over, and the national teacher hasn't left? Others said that Jing Yan was busy with official business, but she didn't even see it at all.

Yan Jinxi didn't want to pay attention to him, so she prepared to take another way back to Xilan Yuan after a little detour.

"Stop!" The national teacher Jing Yan was keenly aware of Yan Jinxi's small movements and stopped her.

"My lord, what's the point of looking for Jinxi?" Yan Jinxi had no choice but to step forward to deal with it, after all, the person in front of him was the national teacher of the Chu State, and his subordinates were really a little reluctant.

"Miss Yan is really exquisite, and secretly changed the clothes in the second lady's brocade box."

Yan Jinxi: "......"

I didn't expect this national teacher Jing Yan to see through her so easily, Jing Yan was right, she sneaked into Ningyan Pavilion last night to change her clothes, and changed Yan Ningyan's birthday gift into a longevity dress!

"If you don't admit it, you're acquiescing?" Seeing that she didn't speak, Jing Yan continued.

"It's not...... I had no idea. Yan Jinxi knew that she couldn't admit it in front of Jing Yan, at least so far, she didn't know that this person was in the same boat as her.

"They don't suspect that there is already someone to take your sins."

"Father and you have no grievances, why should the national teacher be so calculating?" Yan Jinxi stared at his ink eyes and asked rhetorically.

The two of them walked and talked as they walked to the edge of the small lake outside Xilan Garden.

The national teacher asked: "According to what you say, you and Yan Ningyan are sisters, don't you calculate her again and again?" ”

Yan Jinxi was a little puzzled, just how did this person in front of him achieve the position of a national teacher with such a temper! I don't know how to be humble in words......

She just stared at it, who knew that one of them stumbled, and her feet were unstable, and she was about to fall into a river.

Seeing this, Jing Yan's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he grabbed her from Yan Jinxi's slender waist, and said a little jokingly:

"Frizzy."

Then he gently put Yan Jinxi on the ground, and his movements were not as rude as words.

"Thank you, National Teacher." Yan Jinxi reluctantly thanked the person in front of him.

In fact, the national teacher Jing Yan was right, as soon as this incident came out, Mrs. Yan and Yan Ningyan couldn't suspect her at all, everyone knew that the concubine was not qualified to enter the courtyard of the concubine.

Everyone in the Yan Mansion knows that Yan Jinxi has a weak body and no force, there is no doubt that Yan Ningyan's personal maid Ling'er is the biggest suspect.

The Jing Yan in front of him is unfathomable, but the only thing Yan Jinxi can't figure out is why Jing Yan is staring at him like this? A mere concubine of the Yan Mansion can make the high-ranking and powerful Jing Yan so attentive?

Jing Yan guessed her thoughts, but he didn't talk to her in detail, just handed her a piece of jade pendant, and said lightly:

"This jade pendant is given to you, and you can freely enter and leave the National Teacher's Mansion in the future."

"Master Guoshi, how many young women have you given such jade pendants? I didn't expect that my greatest hobby of the national teacher who has great Chu power in the world is also a woman? ”

National Teacher Jingyan: "......"

At this time, the deep eyes of the national teacher Jing Yan looked at the critical place on Yan Jinxi's upper body, and then sighed, it was no different from the previous few days, alas.

Yan Jinxi obviously noticed the eyes of the national teacher: "My lord, there are no flowers on my face. ”

Yan Jinxi still remembers in her previous life, Shen Luo sent her into the National Teacher's Mansion to assassinate Jing Yan, she did everything possible to get a jade pendant that could enter King Jing's Mansion by herself, but she didn't expect that in this life, Jing Yan actually gave herself such a jade pendant.

Yan Jinxi: "No...... I can't take it. ”

In this life, she wants to keep a distance from Jing Yan and stay away from these figures who stand at the top of power, whether it is Shen Luo or Jing Yan, she doesn't want to contact them anymore.

"You can know the fate of disobeying the orders of the national teacher." It seems that this is the first time Jing Yan has threatened herself, and she has long known that he is not a national teacher who "travels in the mountains and rivers" at all.

Yan Jinxi had no choice but to accept it, and in the end, Jing Yan's personal guard said that something had happened to the National Teacher's Mansion and came to look for him, and the National Teacher Jing Yan left.

In the main hall, Mrs. Yan has been sighing there all the time, and after Zhao Lanjun and Prime Minister Yan Chengxiang persuaded them for a long time, Mrs. Yan failed to calm down their emotions.

Yan Ziran just briefly explained a few words, and then returned to the palace.

Zhao Lanjun can't believe today's events, although she also knows that Yan Ningyan is reckless, but at least her head is clear, how can she give a shroud when she celebrates her birthday?

Mrs. Yan Zhao Lanjun secretly arrived at the Ningyan Pavilion without telling the others, Yan Ningyan was huddled in the corner alone and crying, looking extremely helpless, and Mrs. Yan's heart tightened.

When Yan Jinxi saw her mother Zhao Lanjun coming, her dim eyes instantly showed light, and she immediately stepped forward.

"Mother, this matter must have been done by my maid Ling'er, my brocade box has always been taken care of by Ling'er, and she must have transferred the bag." After Yan Ningyan saw her mother coming, she seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, knelt on the ground, pulled Zhao Lanjun's clothes and cried.

"I know, before I came to you, I had already sent someone to torture Ling'er, and Ling'er confessed, saying that she changed it." Old Jianghu Zhao Lanjun sensitively noticed that this matter was not simple, but he still told Yan Ningyan about it.

She didn't know that the punishment of the Prime Minister's Mansion was cruel, and of course Ling'er could not stand it and was beaten into a trick.

"Sure enough, it was this spirit that caused me to fall to such a point, and this person must not stay." Yan Ningyan's face was a little cruel, thinking that he was locked up in Ningyan Pavilion, and said, "Mother, find a way to let me out." ”

"That's what your father and your grandmother meant, you stay here for a few days, and when they are angry, I'll intercede with your father and let you out."

Yan Ningyan knelt on the ground: "Mother, if you have time, you must say a few good words for me in front of your father and grandmother...... And mother, you said that Ning Yan was disgraced in front of the magnates in the capital this time, did Ning Yan's life be ruined like this? ”

"No, don't forget that you are the prime minister's daughter-in-law." Zhao Lanjun's Danfeng eyes darkened.

Since this Yan Ziran married into the palace, the closest person to her in the Yan family is her biological daughter Yan Ningyan, why did Zhao Lanjun sit back and watch Yan Ningyan fall and not take care of it?

On the evening of this day, Ling'er was secretly executed by Zhao Lanjun.
