Bai Rui was taken aback when she saw Su Ju'an helping someone to come, and hurriedly asked, "Brother and sister, what's going on?"

Su Tang'an smiled faintly: "I don't know if my sister-in-law has heard some unbearable rumors about the donation and Tingjun?"

"Oh?" Bai Rui frowned, "I haven't heard about this yet, what kind of rumors have made you so angry?"

"Qing'er. Su Tang'an said lightly, "Tell your sister-in-law what you heard." ”

"Yes. Qing'er said, "In the morning, the slave maid heard rumors that our young lady was charming and confused the third son, and said that the young lady and the third son were all on the street last night, and when they came back, they were still disheveled, saying that the young lady*, and there are many slaves and maids who really can't say it." Such malicious slander, naturally unbearable, the slave maid and Qin guards inquired for an afternoon, and found out that these unbearable rumors were all caused by this Zhao Pozi chewing her tongue behind her back, so the young lady brought someone here. ”

"There is such a thing?" Bai Rui looked shocked.

"The affairs of this Huainan palace should be handed over to the sister-in-law to deal with, we don't dare to overstep the bounds, so we brought people to the sister-in-law. Su Tang'an said lightly, "What to do, sister-in-law has the final say." ”

"If you really talk about the rights and wrongs of the master behind your back, you are too disrespectful to the rules of our Huainan Palace, and this matter must be severely punished!" Bai Rui said, "Let me ask you, is it really you chewing your tongue behind your back?"

"The old slave is wronged!" Mrs. Zhao hurriedly denied, "The old slave has been in the Huainan Mansion for decades, and the third son was raised by the old slave, how could such a ridiculous statement be spread!"

"Do you mean that we have wronged you? Do you still not admit it in front of the eldest young lady?" Qing'er snorted coldly, "You said these words last night when you were chatting with the second daughter-in-law of Wang and the fourth daughter-in-law of Zhao, if this is unintentional, but then you talked to Qin Ma and the others, it is obviously a malicious spread of rumors, slandering our young lady behind your back! Do you still have to continue to quibble? Or do you need to call the second daughter-in-law of Wang and the fourth daughter-in-law of Zhao to confront you?"

What is said behind this, if you don't admit it, Mrs. Zhao didn't expect when what she said was found out, so she couldn't help but continue to deny it, so she hurriedly kowtowed and slapped herself a few times, begging: "The old slave is blinded by lard, so he will talk nonsense behind his back for a while, forgetting the rules of our Huainan Palace, and hurting the reputation of the third young lady." The old slave should die, the old slave knows that he is wrong, and begs the young lady to forgive the old slave for the sake of the old slave who has been practicing his business for so many years, and the old slave will never dare again!"

"You are the old man of our palace, you should know the rules even more, you dare to be so bold and reckless when the third young lady enters the door, are you bullying us and not daring to touch you?" Bai Rui said coldly, "Come on, drag this mouthy-mouthed and filthy mother-in-law out to beat fifty boards, and then drive her out of the Huainan Palace! Let those who spread rumors yesterday watch the execution, and whoever dares to arrange the master behind his back in the future will end up like this!"

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Su Cheng'an again and asked, "What do you think of your younger siblings?"

"I listen to my sister-in-law about this, and my sister-in-law will do what she says. Su Tang'an said lightly.

"Since you don't have any opinions, let's do it. Bai Rui said, "Come on, drag this woman out for execution!"

"The eldest young lady spares his life, the third young lady spares his life, the old slave is old, and he really can't stand the fifty big boards! Don't you want the old slave's life? You open your grace and spare the old slave this time, the old slave will never dare again!" Mrs. Zhao hurriedly begged for mercy.

Bai Rui glanced at Su Ju'an and asked what she meant.

Su Tang'an said lightly: "It is said that the rules of Huainan Wangfu are strict, but there are so many people who rely on the old and sell the old who are breaking the rules, so they are becoming more and more loose, so let's make a new rule for her today." ”

"The words of the third young lady are quite clear, pull it down. Bai Rui said lightly.

Su Tang'an glanced at Bai Rui again and said: "Sister-in-law is too kind on weekdays, which makes these subordinates more and more lawless, sometimes they have to be punished when they should be punished, and they still have to be evildoers." Of course, the sister-in-law only manages the palace in an orderly manner, and these little things are not the turn of Tachibana to talk much. ”

Bai Rui smiled: "I wrote down my brother and sister's words." In the end, someone spread rumors behind their backs to hurt my younger siblings, or I didn't discipline them well, I will strictly discipline my subordinates in the future, and I won't let such a thing happen again. ”

"Then thank you sister-in-law, Tachibana said goodbye first. Su Tang'an said lightly, and then left and returned to Xiaoxiang Garden.

Qing'er followed behind Su Ju'an and said angrily: "Young lady, this is to push the wicked person to you, Miss!"

"Let it be. Su Tang'an smiled faintly, "The little rumors can't hurt me, I could have ignored it, but the so-called inch by inch, no matter this time, there will be a next time, it's better to pinch it off from the source, and do it as this wicked person." ”

As soon as Su Tang'an returned to Xiaoxiang Garden, Zijuan came.

"Zixia said that you are not feeling well, why don't you rest for a while?" asked Su Tang'an lightly.

"Thank you for the young lady's care, I feel much better now!" Zijuan said lightly.

"Zixia told you everything she had to say?" asked Su Tang'an again.

"That's it. Zijuan said, "The slave is willing not to marry for life, stay in Xiaoxiang Yuan, serve the young lady and the son, and hope that the young lady can be fulfilled." ”

"There's no need for me to force you to marry, since it's your own choice, then stay there. Su Tang'an said lightly, "But I have to remind you, be honest in the future, don't feel that you are the most special one, I won't wronged you, but you don't want to make trouble for yourself." Step aside. ”

"Yes!" Zijuan retreated, and when he arrived at the door, he snorted and scolded in a low voice, "What a holy goddess, she is not a fox yet! Sooner or later, the son will get tired of you, and when the time comes, I will see that you are still shy!"

Inside the Ching Ling Garden.

"She's here to let me call the shots, it's clear that she's here to slap me in the face, saying that I have no way to do it!" Bai Rui sneered and said, "This Su Cheng'an is really not a fuel-efficient lamp! Now relying on the third child, our Huainan Wangfu has a father, I'm afraid that there will be no one in her eyes, it's only a few days since I got married, and in a few days, I have to ask her for peace!"

"Don't be angry, no matter how she tosses, you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huainan Palace, and the Huainan Mansion still has to rely on you to manage it! Gu Tingyao persuaded.

"Speaking of this, I'm angry, I'm in charge of the affairs of the palace, and I'm busy every day, look at Jiang Yi's little hooves, that day wasn't at ease? But what did I fall on? Who remembered that I was in charge of a big family!" Bai Rui snorted, "Su Tang'an's prodigal hooves dare to talk to me like this, it's not that Gu Tingjun gave him confidence, if Gu Tingjun can't be valued by His Majesty, she has to be a person with her tail between her legs!

"Yes, yes, yes!" Gu Tingyao hurriedly admitted his mistake, "It's me who is bad, it's me who is useless, and I have wronged you!"

"Don't tell me these useless things, let me ask you, when will you be able to become the prince?" Bai Rui asked.

"This ...... This is not something I can say, it depends on the will of my father!" Gu Tingyao said, "But there is no need to rush this matter, as long as I follow Xuanyuan Hou closely, the position of the son of this world will be mine sooner or later! This Su Tang'an is arrogant, you have to be patient, Gu Tingjun is no matter how powerful he is, how can he be Xuanyuan Hou's opponent, and he will not be the same defeat in the future, when the time comes, they will not have to be trampled under our feet, you bear with it first, let's see how long they can be arrogant!"

"Does Xuanyuan Marquis really value you so much?" Bai Rui asked again.

"Of course, I am now the confidant of Marquis Xuanyuan, and I am also the right and left hand of His Royal Highness the Prince!" Gu Tingyao said, "Think about it, sooner or later, the world will belong to the prince, and Gu Tingjun will fight against the prince, sooner or later he will die without a place to be buried, this Huainan palace will have to rely on me in the future, who is not me for the position of the prince of this world?"

Bai Rui smiled contentedly: "I really hope this day will come soon!"

Qihou Mansion.

Su Hongguang was reading a book, but there was indeed a letter in the book, he recognized this note, wasn't this Cheng Le's? Why was this letter sent to his study, and it would be hidden in this book? Hurriedly opened the letter and glanced at it, and after reading it, his face changed in vain.

The next day, he had planned to go to Jingci'an in person to bring his daughter back, but the king of Chu suddenly came to visit, so he had to send someone to take the third lady back to the Qihou Mansion.

The king of Chu talked with Su Hongguang in the study for nearly an hour, and then left.

Su Changle was overjoyed after learning the news that the King of Chu came to the Qihou Mansion, she went to the Chu Mansion more than once in the past few days, but she did not see the King of Chu himself, this time she was finally able to see her with her own eyes, she dressed up and waited outside her father's study.

After waiting for a while, King Chu came out of the study, she hurriedly greeted her, and leaned over slightly: "Lord Wang." ”

"Hmm. King Chu nodded lightly, and then was about to leave.

"Lord Wang!" Su Changle hurriedly followed, "Lord Wang, do you really ignore Changle anymore? What did Changle do wrong that made you so annoyed? Could it be that just because Changle did something wrong, there will never be a day to turn over in the heart of the prince? Even if Changle did something wrong, wouldn't the prince be able to give Changle a chance to reform himself? Why are you so ruthless? Why do you want to be so long-hearted?"

The King of Chu paused, glanced back at Su Changle, and said, "There is no need for anything more between us, and our marriage will be stopped." ”

Su Changle's face changed, and he ran to the King of Chu in disbelief, pulled his sleeve, and asked eagerly: "What did you just say, Lord Wang?"

"Our marriage is not counted, and in the future, men and women will marry irrelevantly. King Chu said lightly.

"I don't believe it!" Su Changle cried, "I don't believe that the prince will be so ruthless! You are lying to me, you must be lying to me, right? We were married by the queen, how can we say that if it doesn't count, it won't count!"

"I'm sorry to make you so sad, but I'm up to my mind. The king of Chu said, "There is no need for us to meet again, farewell." ”
