Hong Ye paused and then said, "The second old lady saw the Marquis and the Crown Princess of Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion hugging each other."

"Oh."

He continued to talk about everything he knew, "Madam, the second old lady was frightened and scolded the Crown Princess for being shameless..."

"It's so serious?" Jiang Ruanxi pretended to be surprised, "Let's go in and take a look."

Her calm and calm appearance surprised Hongye. Madam would know these things now, shouldn't she be angry?

Why do you still look excited and happy?

"I have gained some experience. I actually saw the Marquis and the Princess of Zhenguo Marquis hugging each other in broad daylight. This is simply too embarrassing. Who has ever seen such a ridiculous thing?"

Just when Jiang Ruanxi arrived at the door, she heard Aunt Lin's sharp voice, which was so loud that the beams of the house were about to fall.

"His second aunt, how can you make such nonsense? The imperial concubine is the Marquis's nephew-in-law. How could something like that happen between them? You must have read it wrong."

Zhou's anxious voice sounded, clearly intending to refuse to admit it.

"How could it be wrong? I obviously saw it. Why don't you admit it?"

"Second Aunt, the banquet is about to begin, but I didn't see you in the front yard. I was looking for you everywhere. I didn't expect you to be talking to my mother here. It's really easy for me to find you."

Jiang Ruanxi went in, pretending not to know anything and talking warmly.

Seeing Jiang Ruan Xi coming, Mrs. Zhou's heart was in her throat, but Aunt Lin held Jiang Ruan Xi's hand.

"Niece-in-law, I originally came in to meet your mother for dinner, but who would have thought that when I was in the yard, I saw two people hugging each other. Those two people were clearly the Crown Princess and the Marquis."

"Second Aunt, you can take this medicine randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. Do you know what you are talking about?"

Compared with Zhou's panic, Jiang Ruanxi seemed very calm.

"How could I have seen it wrong? My eyes have not reached the point where my old eyes are dim. I will never see it wrong."

"Second Aunt, I have just been entertaining guests and drinking outside. Why am I here? Are you sure it is me you see?"

At this time, Lin Ningkun obviously knew the news and had already come in. Compared with the coldness in the past, his face was full of anger at this moment, and his whole body exuded a cold air that made people afraid to approach.

It could be seen that he was really angry.

"I have been together with Li Xun, the fourth young master of the Li family. If you don't believe it, you can ask the fourth young master of the Li family."

After saying that, he looked at Li Xun behind him.

Li Xun was the prime minister's son. He didn't know the actual situation. He answered matter-of-factly, "The Marquis is telling the truth. I was talking to the Marquis in the living room just now."

Second Aunt Lin still believed what she saw and thought they were working together to deceive her. "You guys are talking nonsense. I just saw you hugging each other."

Lin Ningkun's face was as dark as ink, "Second aunt, please be careful what you say. Could it be that you say Mr. Li is lying again?"

"I...I..." Aunt Lin was given such a big hat and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Li Xun was also angry when he was questioned.

"I have read poetry and books since I was a child and learned about etiquette, justice and integrity. My father has always taught me to be a person who understands right and wrong. How could I lie about this matter? The people who were with me in the studio just now, except the Marquis, And Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue, if Auntie Lin doesn’t believe me, you should believe Lord Shangshu, right?”

After saying that, he walked away angrily.

As soon as Aunt Lin heard that the Minister of Household Affairs was there, she began to doubt herself, "That's not right... I obviously..."

"Nonsense, what are you talking about here?"

At this time, the second master of the Lin family, the husband of the second aunt Lin, received the message and hurried over.

Aunt Lin scolded her, "You usually can't see clearly anything within three meters, how could you still witness those things? It's obvious that you saw this wrong. What are you talking about?"

Second Aunt Lin had always been afraid of this husband, so she shut up immediately after hearing this.

Jiang Ruanxi curled her lips slightly and stood up to smooth things over, "It seems it's all a misunderstanding. It would be nice if everyone explained it clearly."

At this time, Hongye came in from outside and muttered a few words in front of Jiang Ruanxi.

Jiang Ruanxi added, "The Crown Princess said she was feeling unwell this morning. My mother had someone send her back just now. I'm afraid she has arrived at the mansion now."

Zhenguohou's Mansion is a certain distance away from Dingninghou's Mansion. If you have gone back at this time, you will have just left after saying hello.

Thinking about it this way, what Second Aunt Lin saw was indeed not the Crown Princess.

"By the way, the banquet has already started outside, why don't we all go out to eat?" Jiang Ruanxi reminded again.

"Yes, yes, the food is ready. If you don't go, it will be cold." Mrs. Zhou also followed suit.

Everyone is a discerning person, so naturally they will not stay any longer and will leave soon.

Jiang Ruanxi walked behind and saw that Second Aunt Lin had not left yet, even muttering to herself, "But I really don't think I saw it wrong..."

"Second Aunt, let's go out to eat."

Second Aunt Lin was unwilling to give in. It seemed that no one believed her. She would definitely find evidence to prove that she was right.

After everyone left, Hongye said, "Madam, that girl and the servant have left the mansion, and I have had someone escort them out of Kyoto."

"You did a good job. When my second aunt goes back later, please remember to give it away in person."

Hongye nodded, and Jiang Ruanxi looked at the front yard with a sneer on his lips.

She had planned all this.

According to the plan, Lin Ningkun couldn't help but go to see Jiang Xuerou. But then, for some unknown reason, he walked back halfway.

Moreover, Wei Shi sent Jiang Xuerou away without waiting for the banquet to begin.

Later, Jiang Ruanxi asked people to hug Jiang Xuerou and Lin Ningkun in the yard wearing similar clothes, just to let Second Aunt Jiang see them.

She knew Aunt Lin's character and would definitely make this matter public.

Although Lin Ningkun would clear her name in the end and this matter was just a misunderstanding, once the seeds of doubt were planted, they would surely take root and sprout. She didn't believe how long the matter between them could be hidden.

During the meal, Aunt Jiang Lin's appetite was not very good because of the incident in the backyard, so she left the table after eating a few mouthfuls.

"Second Aunt is usually the most active in eating, why didn't you eat today?"

"What else can I do? I must think that today's banquet is not delicious." Lin Tingting said disdainfully, "My second sister-in-law is too stingy. When we usually have banquets, we always go to Jixiang Building to book, but today we see It tastes very shabby and doesn’t look like food for a banquet at all.”
