The Zunhua Courtyard where the eldest princess lives is far away from the East Garden, and this far water can't save the fire, not to mention that drinking the soup is the rule set by the scholars, and Ren is the identity of the eldest princess, and it is inconvenient to meddle in the family affairs of Lord Su.

I was in a hurry and couldn't think of an idea, and suddenly heard Mama Qing say in a cold voice: "Since you chose a concubine, you slut has been tossing a lot, and you dare to run away after drinking the soup, Mama Ben wants to take a look, where can you escape?"

Zi Ning gritted her teeth, raised her head and said, "Then please let Mama let us go, let us escape, maybe we will disappoint Mama!"

"Presumptuous!" Mama Qing slapped the table hard, stood up with a "Teng", kicked Zi Ning in the chest fiercely, bent over and pinched her painfully distorted face, and scolded sharply: "Don't think that the eldest princess and Lu Gongzi are protecting you, this Dongyuan is up to you." When you enter the door of Lord Su, you have to abide by the rules of the Shi clan, and no one can be an exception!"

slapped Zi Ning with her backhand, and Mama Qing smiled proudly: "Let your little slut taste Mama's methods today!" turned around and sat down in front of the couch, raised his hand and ordered: "Pour her two bowls of broken soup, I want her to drink enough!"

The green ring, who was kneeling on the side and was held down by her mother-in-law, struggled to get up, crying and shouting: "Don't, don't want grandma, I'm willing to drink instead of Ning'er, you pour me two bowls, and I'll drink them all......"

Mama Qing raised her eyes to look at the green ring, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of her wrinkled mouth, "When Mama Ben cleans up this little slut, it will be your turn, do you want to have two bowls, Mama Ben will definitely fulfill you!"

Zi Ning shook off her sleeves vigorously, wiped the blood flowing from the corners of her mouth, raised her head and said stubbornly: "What rules are not in order, you are just using the rules of the scholar clan to seek your own selfish interests! Wasn't Ligu the prince's concubine in the past, why didn't she drink the soup, why did she give birth to a child, if no one can break the rules, I am ten thousand unconvinced!"

"You...... You ......" Qing Mama was so angry that her face turned pale, and she pointed at Zi Ning and scolded: "You slut who is strong and reasonable, you two, quickly hold her down for me and pour down the broken soup!" instructed the mother-in-law on the left and right sides to immediately suppress Zi Ning, put two bowls full of medicinal soup, and brought them to her.

Zi Ning was unwilling, she now practiced the Qi Gong method and the turtle breath inner secret, and her strength was much stronger than before, and immediately secretly lucked, both arms were used at the same time, and she pushed the stout women on both sides away, raised her hand and "snapped" twice, and the soup bowl containing the medicine fell to the ground and fell into several pieces.

Mama Qing was angry and yelled loudly: "Catch this little slut, catch this little slut!"

All the ladies and daughters gathered around to watch the excitement, and saw Zi Ning "Teng" got up, pushed the mother-in-law around her to the ground, and rushed to the wooden barrel of soup with an arrow step, "Boom" flew up with two feet, the wooden barrel was kicked over by her, rolled from the table and fell to the ground, the dark brown medicinal soup flowed all over the ground, and there was a stream of heat.

The girls were dumbfounded, admiring Zining's boldness, and secretly sighing that Mama Qing would definitely not be able to spare her, maybe she would be tortured and Ming'er would be thrown out to be a dirty slave prostitute. It's a pity that Luhuan and Yao'er have become accomplices, but they have to be dragged down by her.

Zi Ning had only one thought in her head, "You can't drink that broken soup, and neither can Luhuan and Yao'er!" So he kicked over the wooden barrel containing the medicinal soup, which made Mama Qing angry.

"A few of you go over, escort these three sluts over, and lick up all the potions on the ground!"

Although Zi Ning is dexterous, she is not the opponent of these stout women, she was caught after a few fights, and she was forced to the ground by them, holding her neck hard, and refusing to bow her head no matter what.

Luhuan and Yao'er also struggled, pursed their mouths tightly, their heads shook from side to side, but they didn't want to lick the decoction. The two persisted for a long time, and they were already covered in sweat, and their faces were pale and out of strength.

Green Ring was soaked, his clothes were also stained with decoction, his hair was in a mess, he turned his head to look at Zi Ning with great effort, and shouted sadly: "Ning'er-"

Zi Ning's heart ached, and when she remembered someone, she tore her throat and shouted: "Xia Wan, Xia Wan save us, I have Qing Tanmo here, all for you......"

Xia Wan was sitting upright in the inner room, and when she heard Zi Ning and the others making a fuss outside, her heart was calm, and she sighed secretly: "Zi Ning has such a temperament, she really shouldn't come to be a woman." If she drinks the soup, she may be able to regain her edge, which is not a good thing for her. ”

But after half a pillar of incense, she suddenly heard Zi Ning shouting her name, Xia Wan suddenly stirred her spirit, and muttered in her mouth: "Qingtan Mo, Qing Tan Mo...... She actually has green sandalwood ink?"

An unbelievable look flashed in his eyes, he involuntarily got up, slightly supported his sideburns, pondered for a moment, then raised his hand to lift the bead curtain and walked out.

Seeing a group of people surrounding the outer hall, the three of Zining were unkempt and shriveled to the ground, and several mothers-in-law held them down viciously, insisting that the three of them lick the decoction on the ground.

Xia Wan stepped forward slowly, and as soon as the women saw her coming, they all hurriedly got out of the way. I saw Xia Wan bowing slightly in front of Mama Qing, and said slowly: "Although the Shi clan has a rule for drinking the soup, it is only set for the concubines who invite pets, since the three of them are unwilling to serve the adults closely, Mama simply left them in the backyard, and there is no need to paint portraits." If you can't see the portrait, you won't be pampered, and since you don't have a favor, why drink this decoction?"

Because Xiawan is a top-grade woman, Mama Qing looked at her differently and spoke politely, seeing her interceding for Zining and the three of them, she sighed and said: "Rules are rules, as long as they are women for a day, whether they are pets or not, this soup must be drunk." The girl is knowledgeable, the family law of the scholar clan is in front of her, who dares not to obey, if this grandmother lets them go today, and in the future, Lord Su will blame her, who will bear it?"

"I'll take care of it!" Xia Wan smiled, her eyes revealing a hint of clarity, "Mama doesn't know, Lord Su is the most reluctant to make things difficult, if the adults know that the maids hate him for breaking off the soup, they will definitely punish Mama for not teaching properly." ”

Mama Qing's old face twitched, she looked at Xia Wan for a long time, and asked tentatively, "How did the girl find out about Master Su?"

Xia Wan lowered her head slightly, smiled faintly, pulled the handkerchief out of her sleeve, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said leisurely: "I guess Mama has also heard that Master Su specially rewarded me with many things, which are not available to the maids." Just like the handkerchief in my hand, it is silk satin from the south of the Yangtze River, and it is also rewarded by adults. When I say this, Mama should understand. ”

When Mama Qing heard this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help shaking twice, and she immediately smiled and said: "It turns out that the girl and Master Su are old acquaintances, and the strange Lord treats the girl differently." ”

Xia Wan put away her smile, swept her eyes to Zi Ning and the others, and said coldly: "Since Mama is clear, why don't you let them go?"

Raising her eyes and glancing at the three Zining people kneeling on the ground, Mama Qing was a little upset in her heart, and secretly thought: "If I refute Xia Wan's face, she will definitely have a grudge." In the future, when she is promoted to the good concubine of Master Su, I will have a hard time this day, as for Zining, this girl is nothing more than Aunt Li's explanation before leaving, give her more bitter fruits to eat. Now the other two girls have the same heart as her, and if they want to die, they have to die together. Three daughters died in this Dongyuan at once, and in the future, when the adults will blame it, Ligu will not bear the guilt for me. ”

After thinking about it for a while, I felt that there was not much benefit in helping Ligu. She is just the aunt of the palace steward, and she once had an old relationship with the prince, so what can she do, a princess from the palace, and she is from the Han clan, no matter how strong she is, she can't go to Lord Su!

Then she turned her eyes to Zining, and saw that she looked fairy and pretty, Mama Qing beat the drum in her heart, and regretted it slightly, thinking: "With such a clever appearance, there is a chance that you will be favored, and now I offend them for Ligu, but it is a little worthless." It's better to give Xia Wan a favor today, let her be more grateful to me, and in the future, Mama Ben can also seek some benefits in front of Master Su!"

Immediately squeezed the old face and smiled, and said, "What Miss Xiawan said is that this will let them go." It's just that when Master Su comes, if you blame me for this, the girl still has to remember that she has to take care of this grandmother. ”

Xia Wan nodded, didn't speak, walked straight to Zi Ning, and pulled her up. Zi Ning was very moved, took her hand and said, "Thank you for saving me, don't worry, all the green sandalwood ink I left there will be given to you, and I will never break my word!"

Although Qingtanmo is a unique good thing in the world, after all, it is not as good as the net worth of the three people, and Zining gave Qingtanmo to Xia Wan willingly.

Xia Wan smiled slightly, wiped the beads of sweat on Zi Ning's forehead with the handkerchief in her hand, and said lightly: "I helped you this time, not to ask for Qing Tan Mo, but for Master Su." That green sandalwood ink is rare in the world, you can keep it for yourself!"

As he spoke, he turned around and walked slowly, returning to the inner room to paint a portrait.

Zi Ning was stunned, Xia Wan's words made her scratch her head, and she thought: "She helped me, why did she say it was for Master Su? Doesn't I drink the soup, Lord Su likes it very much? It's really strange." ”
