After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

The maid Ling'er sighed and said, "Madam, haven't you figured it out yet? The one who is in charge of the palace now is the princess, not the old lady, and certainly not the prince."

Lu Guifang frowned: "What nonsense are you talking about? A married woman must obey her husband, even if she is a princess, there is no exception! The surname of the Zhennan Palace is Lu, not Xiao!"

Ling'er lowered her head and advised softly, "But our master's future still depends on Master Xiao... If you provoke the princess like this, not only the old lady, but also the master will not be happy."

Lu Guifang was very impatient, but she had to admit that Ling'er's worries were correct.

She said unwillingly: "If Xiao Yunxi wants to live a good life with Jing Ting, she must flatter me, her elder sister-in-law, and hope that I will speak well of her in front of Jing Ting. Otherwise, when Lin Wan'er enters the mansion, it will be too late for her to regret it."

Ling'er didn't want to persuade her anymore. Madam was being too stubborn and couldn't see that the princess didn't like the prince.

After seeing off the Dong family, Xiao Yunxi reported to the old lady and went to accept the invitation from the Princess of Yongning County.

The old lady didn't say anything, just told her to go early and come back early.

After returning to Shou'an Hall, the old lady dismissed the maids and left only Nanny Li to talk.

"How is the preparation of the medicine going?"

"The sterilizing medicine has been prepared. As for that... that person said we have to wait for a while."

"And because it requires several years of supply, the price is a bit high."

Nanny Li raised her hand and made the sign of five.

The old lady frowned, "So expensive?! Forget it, I won't buy it."

"This money has been spent without any sound. It will take several years to produce results."

"Send someone to a farther place to buy some arsenic, and add it to their food a little bit every day. Over time, the same result will occur."

"As for the infertility drug, wait until the day when Lin Wan'er officially becomes Jing Ting's concubine, and then inject it into her. Let her know what it means to regret it too late!"

Nanny Li was shocked, the old lady was really cruel.

"By the way, has there been any movement in Canliu Courtyard in the past two days?"

"Madam, I'm keeping a close watch on them. Even Master Ze and Miss Yuan were stopped three feet away. Now that the Dong family has moved out, can we relax a little?"

The old lady sneered, "Just lock him up like this, so he won't be let out and dirty the palace!"

After saying this, the old lady asked Nanny Li to help her go back to the inner room to rest.

-------------------------

When Xie Junyao returned to the palace after the court session, he saw Xiao Linzi waiting at the door of the study, so he asked, "What's wrong? You look constipated?"

Xiao Linzi walked forward with a flattering smile, "Your Highness, this is the matter of the Second Master of the Xiao Family."

Xie Junyao raised an eyebrow, "What did he do?"

Xiao Linzi bowed and replied: "Nothing much, I just ordered someone to pick peach blossoms after returning home, stepped on them hard a few times, and then ordered someone to send them to Princess Changle..."

Xie Junyao paused, "Did the princess say anything?"

Xiao Linzi lowered his head, "The princess said that Mr. Xiao was having a seizure, but she ignored it and instead led the people in the yard to eat hotpot happily."

Xie Junyao frowned, "She didn't even curse?"

Xiao Linzi nodded, "Yes, I heard from the secret guards that Princess Changle was in a good mood and was chatting and laughing with the maids."

Xie Junyao suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, "Go and give Xiao Er a plate of duck tongues!"

"Yes."

Xiao Linzi suddenly felt that his prince had also gone crazy.

Xiao Yunxi and Mu Qingyun were sipping tea and eating snacks in the private room of Jumanlou.

Mu Qingyun asked, "Do you agree to let Lu Jingting take that bitch Lin as his concubine?"

Xiao Yunxi drank a sip of tea comfortably, "Sister Yun, they are a pair of star-crossed lovers, how can we separate them?"

"Besides, if we don't give her a legitimate status, how can we return Lu Ze and Lu Yuan to them?"

"Lu Zhan must be Lu Jingting's only legitimate son!"

Mu Qingyun smiled knowingly, "Aren't those two concubines also pregnant? Can you be sure that they are giving birth to daughters?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's a son or a daughter. They are just illegitimate children. Besides, their indentures are in my hands."

Seeing that Xiao Yunxi had a plan in mind, Mu Qingyun stopped asking and said, "I heard that the Queen is going to choose a wife for His Royal Highness Prince Duan."

"Prince Duan is already a twenty-five-year-old widower. Which young girl is he going to harm?"

Mu Qingyun shook her head in amusement, "You are such a venomous girl, aren't you afraid that Prince Duan will cause trouble for you?"

Xiao Yunxi smiled and said, "I am just chatting with you, sister. In front of Prince Duan, I am respectful and I dare not be disrespectful at all."

"Yes, you are always the best at flattering others!"

Xiao Yunxi didn't respond because she now suspected that Xie Junyao was one of the bad peach blossoms.

Even if the words sound harsh, it doesn't matter if they get out.

Maybe if it gets to the ears of someone with ulterior motives, it might be a good thing.

The two chatted and laughed for a while. When they saw the sun setting, they agreed on the next time to meet and went back to their homes.

As soon as Xiao Yunxi left in the carriage, Prince Duan and Master Qi San came to Juxiang Tower and ran into Mu Qingyun who was about to leave.

"My Lord, my husband."

Xie Junyao pulled the corner of his mouth slightly and said lightly: "No need to be polite, County Lord."

Mr. Qi San came forward and took his wife's hand, and asked softly, "Madam, did you just break up with Princess Changle?"

"Well, the girl said she wanted to go back and feed the fish."

She thought of what Xiao Yunxi said about Xie Junyao, and smiled lightly: "Your Highness, please chat with your husband slowly. I will go back to the mansion first."

"It seems that Princess Changle said something interesting."

Mr. Qi San gave Xie Junyao a teasing look.

Xie Junyao snorted coldly and thought: That girl must have said something bad.

He turned and walked into Juxiang Tower, and Master Qi Sanye shrugged and followed him in.

After the two of them sat down, Xie Junyao started drinking one glass after another.

"Your Highness, if you keep drinking like this, I won't have enough money to pay the bill."

Xie Junyao put down his wine glass, looking depressed.

"Qi San, I can't understand why it has come to this."

"Ah," Mr. Qi sighed, "It's come to this, there's no point in saying more, you should just look forward. Isn't the Queen choosing a wife for you? She's fat or thin, delicate or charming, there's always one you like."

Xie Junyao became even more annoyed, "It's not her, what's the point of having more?"

"No, I just don't understand. There are so many beautiful and talented women out there. Why can't you let it go?

Xie Junyao didn't know why, maybe it was because she broke a tooth when he was young, or maybe she dragged him to crawl through the dog hole...

I don't know when it entered my heart, and I can never forget it.

"Forget it, forget it. Today I will risk my life to accompany you, and I will not leave until I am drunk with you."

Unexpectedly, Xie Junyao put down his wine glass and stood up, "Drink it yourself. I am sleepy and I am going back to sleep."

Mr. Qi: ....

Seeing Qi San's deflated expression, Xie Junyao felt better for some reason, and left with a smile on his face.

In the next private room, Mo Ruochen was looking at Xie Junyao's back, with a heart-shaking smile on his face, "It seems like he still hasn't given up on Xiao Yunxi."

"What can I do if Prince Duan refuses to give up? Are you going to force my wife to stay with me?" The aide laughed while drinking.

"What if Xiao Yunxi is no longer my wife?"

Mo Ruochen tapped the edge of the table as if unintentionally. "Send someone to keep a close eye on the Zhennan Palace. I'm afraid someone will lose control. After all, the eldest princess is coming back soon. Help Xiao Yunxi when necessary."

"The prince seems to be very concerned about Princess Changle's affairs?"

The staff looked at Mo Ruochen teasingly. Could it be that the prince was also tempted?

"The eldest princess has done me a favor, so I should just take care of her daughter."
