Chapter 166: Falling out of favor
Shen Ling took off the jade bracelet on her wrist, and took Taojuan's hand to put it on her hand.
Seeing that the things were valuable, Taojuan hurriedly retracted her hand and said in fear, "Madam, this can't be helped."
"What's the matter, I like you, that's why I reward you with things, and you just take it." Shen Ling didn't care, the strength in his hand did not decrease, and he forcibly put the jade bracelet on Taojuan's hand.
Taojuan's skin is already fair, and the emerald green bracelet on her wrist is even more translucent, like clear water.
Zhu Qing on the side frowned, and his heart was sour, "Sister, I don't have any."
Shen Ling knocked his forehead angrily, "You are a boy, where do you need this."
Zhu Qing covered the place where he was knocked and glared at Taojuan fiercely.
Now that Mu Mansion is almost controlled by Jing Ci, when he returned to Mu Mansion, Jing Xi arranged a room for Tao Juan.
That night, Taojuan sat in a wooden barrel and bathed, and the warm water made her relax.
Thinking back to what happened during the day today, Taojuan was irritable, and before she could make a move, Shen Ling took her away, and this uncontrollable feeling made her feel a little bottomless.
Just as she was thinking, the door was suddenly broken into.
The peach cuckoo came back to her senses, looked at the visitor in surprise, and then shrank her body under the water.
She was ashamed and said, "What are you doing? Don't get out yet, I'm bathing!"
Zhu Qing sneered, ignored the peach juan at all, and simply stepped forward to fish out the person in the bath bucket and put it on his shoulder.
"Let go of me!"
Taojuan struggled non-stop, his face turned slightly pale, Zhu Qing frowned impatiently, and released the snake in his sleeve.
"If you struggle any longer, I'll let the snake bite you."
The snake head spit out the letter and climbed onto Zhuqing's shoulder, a pair of snake eyes stared at the peach juan faintly, the peach juan was so frightened that her breathing stopped for a moment, and she didn't dare to struggle anymore.
Zhu Qing just carried the peach cuckoo that had finally settled down, and kicked open the door of the Jing Shrine.
Before Jing Xi could react, Zhu Qing quickly threw the person on the bed, and the group of snakes on the other side lured Shen Ling over just right.
Seeing Shen Ling, Zhu Qing stepped forward, "Sister, look!"
A hint of cunning flashed in Zhuqing's eyes, my sister will definitely hate Jing Xi and Taojuan, so that my sister will be her own in the future!
Before Shen Ling could react to what was happening, Taojuan, who was thrown on the bed by Zhuqing, casually pulled a piece of clothing and draped it on her body, and ran into Shen Ling's arms.
"Ma'am." The peach crumpled and raised her tear-filled eyes, which was really pitiful.
Zhu Qing was angered by her, and reached out to pull the person out of Shen Ling's arms, "Who asked you to hug your sister!"
Shen Ling clearly felt the stiffness of the beauty in her arms, and looked at Zhu Qing's hand towards her in disgust.
"Bamboo green." Shen Ling stopped Zhu Qing's movements.
She looked inside the room, the originally neat big bed was stained with a wet stain, and Jing Ci's body was dry and dry without the slightest water stain.
On the contrary, it is bamboo green, from the shoulders to the cuffs, almost half of the clothes have been soaked with water.
Shen Ling had a plan in his heart, and it was probably Zhu Qing who forcibly kidnapped Taojuan and planted Jing Xi.
Over there, Jing Xi had also quickly realized Zhu Qing's purpose, and his sword eyebrows were furrowed, anxiously wanting to explain, but he wanted to take the opportunity to test his position in Shen Ling's heart.
Seeing Jing Ci's appearance, Shen Ling was amused in his heart and wanted to tease Jing Ci.
She pretended to be angry, her face gradually cooled, and her tone was cold, "Are you going to explain anything to me?"
Seeing that Shen Ling was angry, Jing Xi was both happy and worried in his heart, happy that Shen Ling had him in his heart, worried that Shen Ling had misunderstood him.
The national teacher, who has always been resourceful, was in a mess, and he didn't realize what even he could easily see through, how could Shen Ling not see it.
"Ling'er, it's not what you think, I'm ......."
Jing Ci wanted to explain, but he was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Zhu Qing.
"What's not what you think? This little Oiran is dressed like this, what else do you have to quibble?"
Jing Ci gritted his teeth and stared at Zhu Qing, why did this kid always want to rob Shen Ling with him.
However, the national teacher is not a vegetarian either, and he asked, "Since you said that she took off her clothes from me, what about the clothes?"
"Who knows where you hid your clothes."
Taojuan, who was hiding in Shen Ling's arms, also spoke, she glanced at Zhuqing and grabbed Shen Ling's clothes.
"Madam, I was bathing in my room before, and suddenly I was brought over by this son, if you don't believe me, you can go and check the wooden barrel in my room, the water in it should still be hot."
Zhu Qing would not admit it, and he argued, "Even if the water in the barrel is hot, it doesn't prove anything."
"Hmph, look at the water on your own clothes!" Jing Xi's tone was cold, and he suddenly said the flaws of Zhuqing.
Zhu Qing bit his lip and darkened his brain, this time he was in a hurry, leaving too many mistakes and omissions, next time he will definitely do more perfect!
Shen Ling saw his small appearance, and pinched Zhu Qing's face angrily.
"Don't do that next time, you know?"
Zhu Qing's mouth was pinched, and he couldn't speak, so he could only blink his big eyes twice.
Shen Ling burst out laughing and let the person go.
Jing Qi looked at Shen Ling with a blank eye, "Madam, do you believe me?"
"Hmm." Shen Ling bowed.
Seeing that the matter had been made clear, Taojuan let go of Shen Ling and stood beside him, but his eyes were still a little disgusted when he looked at this Jing Xi and Zhu Qing.
Shen Ling looked at these again, thoughtfully, this girl is afraid that she is not afraid of men.
She patted Taojuan's back to reassure, "Okay, it's okay, you can go back first."
"Yes."
Taojuan left, Shen Ling yawned, it was late, and she was sleepy after a tired day.
Shen Ling turned around and wanted to leave, but Jing Xi hurriedly stopped when he saw this.
"Where else is Madame going so late, are you restless?"
Shen Ling pointed to the messy big bed and explained helplessly, "I definitely can't sleep on this bed tonight, I'll go sleep somewhere else."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Ling turned around and waved his hand at Jing Ci and left.
Jing Ci and Zhu Qing, who were left in the room, looked at each other unpleasantly, and after making a grimace at Jing Ci, Zhu Qing also left.
The next day, Mu Yaoyao got up and saw Shen Ling walking out of another room.
She asked the sprinkler outside the door, "Didn't Shen Ling stay in the national teacher's room last night?"
The maid thought of some of the things she had seen last night, and explained to Mu Yaoyao, "Miss, yesterday the national teacher bought an Oiran from the Qinglou and came back, and that night, the Oiran appeared on the national teacher's bed, and was caught by the county lord."
The corners of Mu Yaoyao's lips curled up when she listened, and she laughed excitedly, "Hahaha, Shen Ling, you also have times when you fall out of favor."
