The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xuehui carefully weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and had to grit her teeth and decide to take the blame temporarily!

She kowtowed and confessed her guilt, "Please calm down, Madam! I made such a big mistake because I was confused for a moment. Please forgive me this time for the many years I have served the princess!"

Seeing that she was so sensible, Madam Du hinted, "Since you have admitted it, the prince and I cannot punish you any further. The princess is still ill and needs help. You have served her for so many years. If we drive you away and replace you with someone else, I am afraid the princess will find it difficult to use you. So we will keep you here for the time being to atone for your sins..."

Xue Hui was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you very much, Madam, for sparing my life!"

Mrs. Du said softly, "Although we will not pursue this matter for the time being, it does not mean that you are innocent. You still have to admit your mistake to Madam Jiang. Only when Madam Jiang forgives you will this matter be over. Do you understand?"

Prince Jing blew his beard and glared, "Ah Jun, this bitch almost caused Jingying to die, how could you let her go so easily!"

Mrs. Du advised softly, "Your Highness, she made a mistake because she was confused for a moment. I don't think she will dare to do it again in the future. It is better to keep her alive for now and see what happens next. If we drive her away, who will take care of Jingying? Besides, even if we want to punish her, Madam Jiang has to ask for permission, right? Let's just be patient for now!"

Prince Jing was so angry that he wanted to continue to rage, but when he thought that if he punished her, Jingying would have no one to take care of her, he had to suppress his anger and said, "Well, then let's do as you wish, Jun! Humph, if you hadn't stopped me, I would have sent her to Yingtian Mansion for a trial and let her have a good taste of the power of torture!"

Mrs. Du hurriedly said to Xuehui, "The prince has already spared you, why don't you thank him quickly!"

Seeing that things had finally turned out well, Xue Hui couldn't help but be overjoyed. She kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Thank you, my Lord, and thank you, my Madam!"

Meng Jifei, who was watching coldly from the side, couldn't help but say in his heart: "The prince's doting concubine is amazing. When he saw that things were getting out of hand, he simply let the maid take the blame. At the same time, he was able to successfully suppress the furious prince. It's really not easy!

Prince Fu, who had been silent the whole time, was very relaxed. Seeing that things had gone in the direction originally planned, he cleared his throat and said, "In that case, I will go and tell His Majesty that everything was done by a maid in the palace and has nothing to do with others. How you apologize to the Jiang family is your business, and whether they forgive you or not is also your business. It has nothing to do with me. I will go back today!"

The old prince stood up and turned to Meng Jifei and said, "Master Meng, shall we go?"

Meng Jifei nodded, and the two of them went out together, leaving Prince Jing and Madam Du sitting there with gloomy faces and not saying a word!

Inside the Chuyun Palace, Concubine Rong, who was originally waiting for good news, was so angry after hearing the eunuch's report that she gnashed her teeth and said, "It seems that this time that little witch got the advantage!"

Nanny Yue said in confusion: "Don't blame me for being nosy, Concubine Dowager. It's obviously useless. Not to mention that it's just a concubine's princess in the palace who was poisoned, I'm afraid that even if it was a legitimate princess, the emperor would not blame the Jiang family for it, and it would still be left unresolved in the end..."

Concubine Rong said bitterly, “I just can’t bear to let that little bitch get away unharmed!”

Nanny Yue was very puzzled and asked, "Tai Fei, why do you hate that young lady so much?"

This has always been a question in her mind. It was originally just a formality, but after seeing the young lady of the Jiang family with her own eyes, his temperament suddenly changed. Not only did he not protect her, but he also wanted to put her to death. What was the reason?

Because once it is proved that the princess' poisoning is related to the young lady, it means openly murdering a royal noblewoman, and it may even be linked to disobeying the emperor. After all, it was the emperor who gave the princess an oral order to go to the Jiang family to pray for blessings. If it is not handled properly, it is not impossible that she will be charged with the crime of treason in the end.

All this happened after the concubine had seen the young lady's appearance. Why did the concubine dislike the young lady's appearance so much? This puzzled Yue Ma. She was just a maid in the Chuyun Palace, not a maid brought by the concubine from her family, so she didn't know why...

Concubine Rong said with a gloomy look, "I just can't stand the way she pretends to be noble and innocent even though she is just a country girl!"

After hearing this, Nanny Yue became even more puzzled. Madam Jiang was very gentle and lovely, not at all pretentious, and had nothing to do with a vixen. Why did the Concubine Dowager say that?

"Hmph, I will never let this go! Go to the imperial kitchen and call Wang Shouchun over later. I want him to help pass on a message!" Concubine Rong said hatefully.

Nanny Yue kindly advised: "Queen Dowager, since the Emperor wants to keep things quiet, then it will be useless for us to try our best..."

Concubine Rong sneered and said with great disdain: "Your Majesty wants to make a big thing small, right? Then I will make it impossible for him to do so!"

Nanny Yue kindly reminded, "But Prince Fu and Lord Meng have already investigated the matter thoroughly. What else can we do?"

Concubine Rong smiled coldly and said, "Then let's drag the person in charge of the investigation into the water. Isn't that a solution?"

Nanny Yue was shocked: "Ah, you want to find a solution from Lord Meng? He is one of the people the emperor trusts the most, how can the emperor believe it?"

Concubine Rong raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "That's why I asked you to call Wang Shouchun! With the help of his nephew Wang Baishun, wouldn't this be possible?"

"Yes."

The next day.

Wang Baishun came to a house outside the palace and said as soon as he entered the door: "Third Uncle, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Wang Shouchun nodded and said, "Xiaoshun, did the emperor blame you for that?"

Wang Baishun remained silent.

Wang Shouchun advised: "Alas, you don't have to take it to heart. The emperor has no choice, otherwise he would definitely do as you reported. But the Jiang family is too powerful, the emperor can't touch them, so he sent the Shadow Guard again!"

Wang Baishun said in a deep voice: "But His Majesty, isn't this a slap in my face? The result of my investigation was that the Jiang family was related to this matter, but the Shadow Guard suddenly made a big reversal when investigating. Not only was there no connection at all, but the Prince Jing's Mansion was also implicated in it. As a result, I was ridiculed by the East and West Offices for accepting benefits from the Prince Jing's Mansion!"

"Didn't you already accept it?"

"Nothing happened! They suddenly changed their minds and said they couldn't give her to me as a concubine, otherwise it would cause gossip!"

Seeing the beauty who was about to be in his hands fly away, Wang Baishun was very angry!

Wang Shouchun advised: "Hey, don't complain. In my uncle's opinion, your rank is too low. If you were like Meng Jifei, the highest commander of the Shadow Guard, wouldn't you have the final say?"

Wang Baishun said impatiently: "You are just making fun of me. How can I compare with him? Who among the civil and military officials in the court would not be afraid when they mention this living devil? Apart from other things, I don't have his ability to make prisoners speak the truth involuntarily, otherwise the emperor would not trust him so much!"

Wang Shouchun said sinisterly: "There is an opportunity to overthrow him now, do you want to seize it?"
