Chapter 2 Chapter 2 What new means of seduction?
"Mother, you really found a good concubine for Zhenglang. You didn't see that seductive look. How, how could a woman...look like that? I'm afraid she must have come from a brothel."
"Zheng Lang used to only spend about ten days with me every month, but when she came, she took most of it. From the beginning of the month until now, the prince has only come twice."
He Qingyun poured out her dissatisfaction like pouring beans, and couldn't help sobbing during the process. She exaggerated how excessive Jing Yao was, as if Jing Yao wanted to take away her position as the mistress.
"I asked her to be my concubine to honor her. If she behaves herself, she will have a good life. But if she doesn't..." Pingyang County Lady said coldly with a gloomy face.
He Qingxuan shook her mother's hand: "Mom, when will this day end?"
"My dear child, please bear with me for now. You know why I came here to find her. Every man has three wives and four concubines. If she is a child for her whole life, I will definitely bring her to your knees to raise her. When she is no longer useful, she will be at your mercy."
The county lady persuaded her kindly.
He Qingxuan felt wronged: "But brother..."
"Your brother is highly respected by the government and he's not married yet, so how can he compare to my son-in-law?" "Mother, I feel bad. If it was a more ordinary, more beautiful woman, it would be fine, but she..."
When the county lady saw her for the first time, she was also shocked by her beautiful appearance. At that time, she understood that such a girl was destined not to marry into an ordinary family.
Moreover, she had a plump and charming figure. She asked the doctor to take her pulse and he said that the girl had a plump figure and was very healthy. It would be much easier for her to give birth to children in the future than ordinary girls.
The county lady decided to ask He Qingyu to marry Ye Yunzheng. She had already inquired about the girl's background and knew she was easy to control.
He Qingxuan's reputation in Bian Jing has been not very good for many years, so as a mother, she naturally has to worry about her daughter.
"Go and get Jing Yao here, and I'll think of a way to give her a beating."
He Qingxuan nodded.
Jing Yao was choosing jewelry in Lanxiang Pavilion. She carefully selected a playful and not too gorgeous hairpin, inserted it carefully into her bun, held her face and looked left and right, very satisfied.
Yun Qiao thought she had finally gotten the idea and happily wanted to put on the jade and pearl earrings.
Jing Yao still firmly refused.
Ningxiang knocked on the door outside: "Madam Jing, the young lady wants you to go to Lin Huitang to pay your respects."
"Here I come."
Jing Yao straightened her clothes and went to Lin Huitang.
Today is the day when the second son of the Marquis's Mansion proposes marriage. The guests are all toasting in the front yard, and the sound of gongs and drums can be heard from across the yard.
Soft voices were heard in the courtyard, and Jing Yao asked someone to pass the message and was called in.
Sitting on the Arhat bed was a noble and graceful woman, wearing a crimson purple jacket with a cloud-shaped collar, with a tall and gorgeous bun and sharp eyes. She must be the Princess of Pingyang County.
The Pingyang County Lady looked at her nonchalantly. Jing Yao lowered her head and folded her hands on her stomach. "Greetings, Young Madam, Pingyang County Lady."
"Why are you so reserved, kid? Come here and let me take a good look."
The county lady suddenly called her over with a smile. Jing Yao was quite flattered, like a rabbit that was coaxed out of a hole.
Although she looked charming, she was timid and dared not raise her head. Occasionally, her eyes would be as clear as water, hiding an unknown allure.
The county lady had seen countless people, and she felt that a woman like this would be a disaster that would disrupt the mansion if she were alive, so it would be better to pave the way for her daughter early.
"This dress is too plain." The county lady looked at her for a long time, then took off the jade bracelet on her wrist, the golden peony and jade hairpin, and the emerald magnolia hairpin in her hair and was about to put them on her head.
Jing Yao opened her eyes wide: "County Lady, this is unacceptable."
"Why be so formal? A'ao and I fell in love with you the moment we saw you. Just call me aunt. I only hope that when you have children in the future, you and my daughter can support each other. After all, we are sisters, and it's better than letting someone else take advantage of us."
The county lady spoke from the bottom of her heart. Although Jing Yao did not doubt it, she was secretly resisting in her heart. And the way He looked at her... really looked like she was going to kill her with a knife.
Jing Yao shrank back, unable to refuse, and had to let the county lady put it on her.
But she still liked it a little in her heart. Who doesn't like golden and beautiful jewelry?
What the county lady gave was a top-grade treasure. The jadeite had excellent water color and was transparent and green. It looked particularly beautiful when worn on her slender wrist.
After talking for a while and answering all of Jing Yao's questions, the county lady instructed the nanny beside her: "Okay, Madam Zheng, send the person back." The county lady gave her meaningful instructions.
Then Mother Zheng took the person away, and He Qingyun sneered coldly.
Jing Yao followed behind Mother Zheng. She had just arrived at the mansion and had lived in the inner courtyard for a long time, so she had no idea about the winding roads in the mansion.
When they reached a gate with hanging flowers, he said, "I'll take you here. Just turn a corner and you'll be there. I have other things to do, so I won't accompany you anymore."
Jing Yao didn't dare to trouble her and nodded obediently.
After Mother Zheng left, Jing Yao groped her way inside. The halo in the corridor covered half of her face. Her gorgeous face was inlaid with a pair of pure eyes, which was breathtakingly beautiful.
After walking a few steps, she realized something was wrong. This place didn't look like the area near Lanxiang Pavilion. Jing Yao frowned and looked around, afraid that someone would find out and punish her.
When passing by a house, the door was wide open and faint voices of conversation could be heard from inside. Jing Yao thought of asking for directions.
When he leaned over to take a look, he was met with a pair of deep, cold eyes. The shape of the eyes was very beautiful, but contained a frightening frost.
There were two strange men in the room, and her heart skipped a beat, fearing that she had mistakenly entered the male guest section.
"Who?" The deep and steady voice attracted everyone's attention.
The young master of Duke Heng's Mansion followed his gaze.
"Get out." The cold and indifferent voice exploded in Jing Yao's ears, causing her to walk out trembling subconsciously.
The young master looked at the stunningly beautiful girl with amusement.
Although Jing Yao was beautiful, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was still young, and her hair was covered with pearls and jade, so they subconsciously thought that she was the daughter of an official.
But Jing Yao was stupid and didn't think of this. She was only thinking about covering up for herself, fearing that the other party would find out that she was not worthy of the status and yet she had barged into the men's guest seat.
"I, I, I'm a maid. I got lost without paying attention." The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. There was no other reason, it was just that the man opposite her looked so scary.
He Anting frowned. Although he had never met Jing Yao, she was not someone who could be easily fooled.
The girl in front of me was wearing an apricot-pink flowered jacket. She had a shy look on her face, her eyes rolling around and she was telling lies.
Considering her sneaky behavior just now, it is hard not to think that she has ulterior motives.
He Anting looked displeased, staring at her sharply with his cold eyes.
The smile on the young master's lips disappeared in an instant, and he was obviously amused by this clumsy lie.
"Uncle, I have something to do ahead, so I'll leave first."
He Anting watched the young master leave. Jing Yao also wanted to leave with her head down, but she suddenly heard the loud voices of the male guests talking in front of her. She panicked and rushed into the house and hid behind the screen.
He Anting looked at her shamelessly lifting her skirt and walking straight in, and his face became even worse.
This house was a temporary resting place arranged for him by the Bo family. He always liked quietness and had a mysophobia and didn't like to be disturbed. If it weren't for his sister's face, he wouldn't want to come here at all.
Now, his private area was polluted by a woman who was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.
The men's voices got closer for a moment, but it seemed they were not coming this way. Jing Yao felt relieved, straightened her clothes and prepared to go out.
He Anting looked at this ignorant little thing and felt annoyed: "Whose daughter are you?"
Jing Yao was stunned by the question and hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to explain.
"I didn't know that this was the rule of your family. You are full of lies and you break into the residence of a man other than yourself." He Anting didn't have time to discipline her, but the woman was so open about her bad intentions.
Jing Yao didn't understand that he was trying to seduce her, but instead thought that he had exposed her lies. Her face immediately turned red, and she looked so ashamed and angry that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
She has been shy and introverted since she was a child. Perhaps it was because her father always scolded her at home, Jing Yao always subconsciously reflected on herself.
Little did he know that it was this pitiful look that confirmed He Anting's guess.
"Get lost." He Anting said briefly and was too lazy to talk to her anymore.
Jing Yao blushed and was at a loss. Before leaving, she apologized softly, "I'm sorry."
She shouldn't have lied.
He Anting raised his eyelids unexpectedly and glanced at her when he heard that.
Jing Yao's head was almost bowed to the ground. She had snow-white skin, a plump and graceful figure, slightly curled long eyelashes, and a suspicious hint of red at the base of her ears.
The snow-white, slender neck exposed to the sunlight presents a fragile beauty.
Oh.
He Anting thought this was probably another new way to seduce people.
Jing Yao was lost. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go anywhere, but at the same time she wanted to get back to her yard as soon as possible.
After finally catching the maid, she quickly asked for directions and finally returned to Lanxiang Pavilion after many twists and turns. She was in a low mood and her mind was in a mess. She had no time to think about how she had mistakenly entered the men's guest seat.
Seeing her slumped over the table, Yun Qiao asked, "Auntie, are you in a bad mood? The county lady gave you such a nice gift today, and you're not happy?"
Looking at the emerald green bracelet on her wrist, Jing Yao felt a little better: "I definitely can't wear this. I'll keep it for my mother when I get back."
"By the way, news came from the Jing Mansion that Madam has recovered a lot from her illness. Auntie, would you like to go back and see her? It's been three months now, and Madam might have calmed down."
Jing Yao nodded: "Then I will ask the young lady for instructions tomorrow."
He Qingxuan entered the table at the appointed time, but found that the person was not there. She called Zheng's mother over: "Where is he? Didn't I ask you to bring him over?"
Mother Zheng broke out in a cold sweat: "I... I brought it here, and I don't know why it disappeared."
He Qingyun twisted the handkerchief angrily. She had originally planned to use her mother's hand to teach that vixen a lesson, but who knew that she dared to disobey her mother's orders.
In the evening, she returned to Muyunzhai. Her maid Lianqiao massaged her shoulders to loosen up her tired body. He Qingyu asked, "Where did the prince go?"
Lian Qiao stammered, "I went...I went to Lanxiang Pavilion."
He Qingxuan felt like a huge rock was stuck in her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
The Orchid Fragrance Pavilion was bustling with activity. Jing Yao was stripped naked like a puppet and put into the bathtub. Milk was poured into the tub and flower petals were sprinkled on it. She was washed until she felt fragrant and smooth.
Yun Qiao reminded her which posture would help her conceive quickly and that she shouldn't be lazy. Only by getting pregnant quickly could she gain status as a mother and not have to worry about other people's opinions.
Jing Yao ignored what she said and just nodded.
"The prince is here." said the maid outside.
"Auntie, let's go." Yun Qiao pushed her and gestured.
