Chapter 162 Aunt Liu
Inside Xiangguo Temple.
Madam Ji invited Liu into the house to talk.
She originally wanted to vent her unhappiness, but when she saw this frail woman shivering, her urge to vent turned into heartache.
They also share the same thoughts and kind qualities for the next generation.
Besides, hadn't she always hoped that her grandson would be happy and find a woman he loved? Now that he had found a woman, she should be happy for him, not jealous or petty?
Aunt Liu also gradually calmed down from her previous nervousness and helplessness. She could feel that Madam Ji was a kind old lady, and was definitely not comparable to an old lady like Madam Qi.
However, she was still worried. Where would Jun'er get the ability to save the prince?
Aunt Liu secretly regretted why she took the life-saving pill. Otherwise, she could have saved that pill to save Prince Ji, and her daughter would not have fallen into such a dangerous situation.
Aunt Liu was really kind. She didn't regret giving the pill to Ji Chenchuan of Qijunyuan, but she regretted having taken one herself before. In her eyes, there were only others but not herself.
When she didn't know Ji Chenchuan, he was the Prince Ji she was talking about.
Madam Ji saw her worry and comforted her, "You have to trust your daughter. Since she can take on this matter, she naturally has a way. As for you, I am afraid..."
She was afraid that after Lin Qingjun completed the task, the people in the Lin Mansion would act like a rogue and not let her out of the mansion. By then, everything they were doing now would be a waste of effort.
It's not that she doesn't trust the Lin family, but the fact that Lin Yingxue could do such a thing as climbing into the prince's bed has already shown how corrupt the Lin family's character is. Fortunately, she had praised the Lin family for educating their daughters before, but now it seems that she was really blind.
Before Aunt Liu could say anything, a woman who called herself Madam Liu came over and said that she wanted to invite the old lady to go to the Buddhist temple to light the eternal lamp.
Aunt Liu was startled and looked up at the sky outside where only a ray of afterglow remained.
She seemed to have thought of something, her face turned pale, she nervously protected the kind old man in front of her, and spoke softly but firmly.
"Old lady, please don't go."
"The sky has darkened, and the long-burning lamp is only lit in the morning."
How could someone light a long-burning lamp at this time? What was Madam Liu thinking? When you go out, you must be careful.
Aunt Liu immediately ordered Qingshan outside, "Guard Qingshan, please guard the door and don't let anyone in. Someone must be trying to harm the old lady."
Yes.
It is rumored that Old Madam Ji loves Prince Ji very much. Now that Prince Ji's life or death is unknown, it is common sense that the old lady would not come to Xiangguo Temple at this time. And that Madam Ji, she should not have dragged Old Madam Ji over at this time.
Someone must be trying to kill the old lady under the pretext of lighting the eternal lamp.
When Aunt Liu thought of this, her body trembled even more. Although she didn't know what the wealthy families were like, she knew that a fight in the Lin Mansion could cost someone's life, not to mention a first-class mansion like the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. The fight there was no worse than that in the Lin Mansion, and even stronger.
Madam Ji and Nanny Li looked at each other.
Liu's worry and nervousness did not seem fake. Although Liu was a concubine and she was timid, this did not prevent her from being a truly kind person.
There was a glint of admiration in their eyes. This character was so much better than that of Qi.
At the same time, they became more concerned about Lin Qingjun. If her aunt was like this, then the daughter she raised would definitely not be any worse.
"Please come out quickly, Madam. The eldest lady is waiting for you there."
"Also, aren't we here to pray for the prince? Why are you always hiding in the wing courtyard? Or does the old lady not care about the prince at all?"
Madam Liu's words were getting increasingly harsh. She even went so far as to claim that the old lady didn't care about the prince? It was clearly they who had ulterior motives, yet they were blaming her instead? How shameless!
Nanny Liu's voice became anxious again.
"Madam, why are you silent? Is there something wrong?"
"Someone, quickly break open the gate for me. Something must have happened to the old lady. We need to go in and take a look."
Liu's face turned even paler and she became even more shocked.
"She, how dare she?"
A servant actually dared to knock on the old lady's gate? Is there any law in this?
Madam Ji snorted coldly, "For the throne of the Crown Prince, what wouldn't they do? If this weren't Xiangguo Temple, I'm afraid they would burn an old woman like me to death to satisfy their cravings."
this?
Aunt Liu gasped. He actually wanted to set fire and kill people?
There was a loud bang.
Aunt Liu's heart trembled, they really started banging on the door.
what to do?
There are only four of them in this yard, and there should be a group of people outside. Can the four of them defeat that group of people?
Bang!
Another loud bang.
"Qingshan, take the old lady out through the back door. I'll stay here for a while. Hurry."
Aunt Liu didn't care about anything else and pushed Madam Ji to the back.
…
At this time, in another place.
Lin Qingjun's tense body didn't completely relax until she sat down at the head of Ji Chenchuan's bed.
She let herself fall on the chair, let her head tremble all over, let the cold sweat on her body, her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest, she breathed in the air here in big gulps, only in this way did she feel she was still alive.
It's so cruel and so heartbreaking.
It's like walking on the edge of a cliff, stepping on a thin thread. If you're not careful, you'll fall into the abyss.
Only then did she understand what a real fight was. Those fights she thought were enjoyable in the Lin Mansion were not good enough here. Only then did she realize that palace fighting and house fighting were two completely different levels, one in heaven and one in earth, and they could not be compared at all.
"Haha, Ji Chenchuan, if you can survive this time, you must make it up to me."
"...and it would be the last time."
She was really scared. She didn't want to go through this kind of thing again. She was just a concubine's daughter and didn't dare to speak out among those who were in the center of power.
And there was the poisonous cake made by Concubine Ning. She really wanted to poison her to death. She was lucky enough to survive this time. It was really God’s blessing.
After Lin Qingjun calmed down, she looked at the unconscious man on the bed. This was the second time she looked at him like this. The last time was in Qijun Courtyard, but this time was a little different. His breathing was weak, like a lamp that was about to go out.
Lin Qingjun sighed, "Tell me, why is your life so miserable?"
He still couldn't escape from what happened in his previous life.
Does this mean that not all trajectories in the previous life will change?
She might marry Xiao Yuan, but three years later, she would still die at his hands?
"Ji Chenchuan, you really made me lose some confidence."
