Chapter 1244: Questioning
Wu Yunjin's crying stopped.
Then, she bit her lip and said, "Father, the military token is of great importance. My father travels abroad, so he may always carry it with him. As for my father, if there is any news, my mother will definitely send someone to tell me..."
"Your father would never carry the military token with him!" Prince Rong said with an obscure expression, "He must have left it behind! Think carefully, who is the person your father trusts the most? Who is most likely to have the military token?"
Wu Yunjin: “…”
I don’t know what he was thinking about, but his expression suddenly changed.
"Who is it?!" Prince Rong asked with a sharp look.
Wu Yunjin panicked, suppressed a certain guess in her heart, shook her head quickly, and said: "Several generals around my father are all highly valued by my father, but I can't be sure whether they are in his hands or not."
Prince Rong's eyes darkened, he looked at Wu Yunjin scrutinizingly, and said nothing more.
Wu Yunjin carefully glanced at her father-in-law's face, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The father-in-law was only interested in finding out the whereabouts of the military token and didn't seem to want to make a decision for her.
As expected, Prince Rong looked at Princess Rong and said, "The chief judge of the Imperial Hospital in the palace has an ointment that is said to be very effective in removing scars. Please have someone take this letter from the prince and go to the Imperial Hospital to ask the chief judge to come to the palace."
Princess Rong: "...Prince?"
"Go!" Prince Rong waved his hand.
Princess Rong: “…”
Wu Yunjin: “…”
The Xuanyuan Hui sisters saw their sister-in-law off and told the coachman to come back and pick them up when the time came, and then went to the reception area of Prince Ning's mansion.
The female relatives who came to congratulate them had strange expressions on their faces when they saw the Xuanyuan Hui sisters.
Many people witnessed what happened in front of Prince Ning's mansion.
However, the gift that Tang Bao sent was so eye-catching that it attracted the attention of all the guests.
To the extent that these people forgot that the Ning Wang Mansion's Crown Prince's Consort was slapped on the face.
"The Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Rong's Mansion was injured so badly, didn't they go back to the mansion with their sister-in-law?" someone whispered.
"Just now when they were outside the mansion, the sisters looked very anxious, worried about the Crown Prince's Concubine's injury, and did not follow her back to the mansion. Maybe it was because of the injury on her face, which was nothing serious..." someone speculated.
"How can he be alright? He lost so much blood, I'm afraid his skin must have been broken..."
"Ah! What happened? Who's skin was damaged?" Princess Linghua asked excitedly.
"Yeah, yeah, what happened?"
"Yes, tell me quickly..."
Many people who were not present asked in a low voice after hearing this.
As a result, what happened at the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion quickly spread among the guests.
Under the gazes of many people, the Xuanyuan Hui sisters stepped forward to bow and congratulate Princess Ning, and then presented her with a gift.
Princess Ning's expression was indifferent and not warm, and she exuded an aura of dignity and aloofness.
The Xuanyuan Hui sisters did not feel treated coldly.
They were not familiar with Princess Ning and had only met her a few times.
Princess Ning is the elder, so this attitude is normal in their eyes.
How could they know how affectionate Princess Ning had been towards Tang Bao just now.
But they will soon find out.
Xuanyuan Hui bowed to Princess Ning and went to find Zheng Suxin.
"Sister Xin." Xuanyuan Hui had a friendly and warm expression and reached out to hold Zheng Suxin's hand.
"Sister Hui." Zheng Suxin dodged a glance.
Then, he asked, "How is Sister Hui?"
Xuanyuan Hui had a melancholy expression on her face.
"It's just getting by," Xuanyuan Hui said dejectedly, "Sister Xin, you know me. I'm not the kind of person who would forget my loyalty."
Xuanyuan Hui said this with a look of determination on her face. She added, "Sister has been reading poetry and learning women's ethics since she was young. She knows that women should follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues and be faithful to their husbands. Since our two families have already discussed the marriage, even if your brother really..."
Xuanyuan Hui said this while carefully observing Zheng Suxin's expression. Her eyes turned slightly red and she looked like she was about to cry.
Zheng Suxin was immediately moved and said, "Sister Hui, I know you are a person who values friendship, but my brother..."
Zheng Suxin's eyes also turned red.
Her brother seems like a different person now. It is said that the sound of things being thrown can often be heard in the house.
She hasn't seen her brother for some time.
Every time she wanted to see her brother, she would be stopped by her mother.
Xuanyuan Hui felt a sinking feeling in his heart when he saw Zheng Suxin's expression.
Could it be that... Zheng Ziqian's leg is really broken?
Based on her understanding of Zheng Suxin, she knew that Zheng Suxin was not pretending to be like this.
Zheng Suxin suddenly grasped Xuanyuan Hui's hands with both hands, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and said: "Sister Hui, you are so affectionate and friendly. When I go home, I will definitely persuade my parents to renegotiate the marriage between our two families!"
Xuanyuan Hui: "..."
I subconsciously wanted to pull my hand back.
If Zheng Ziqian was really lame, she would be stupid to marry a lame man.
Zheng Suxin, however, held Xuanyuan Hui's hand tightly, not letting go. With red eyes and a look of gratitude, she added, "Sister Hui, if my brother had you by his side, comforting him from time to time, he wouldn't have locked himself up in the room all the time, refusing medical treatment. Maybe his leg would have gotten better..."
Xuanyuan Hui: "..."
“Puff!”
Someone laughed.
Xuanyuan Hui's face darkened and she turned around to look.
Sure enough, Princess Linghua was not far away, looking at her with a smile.
"Don't be silly, I just have doubts in my heart and want to test you." Princess Linghua said with a smile: "Your brother is lame, and I can't hide in time."
Zheng Suxin's face changed, and she said angrily: "Sister Hui is not that kind of person! Even if my brother can no longer stand up, Sister Hui will not regret the engagement! Right, Sister Hui?"
Xuanyuan Hui's face changed drastically.
The marriage between Prince Rong's Mansion and the Zheng family was not made public, and many families did not know about it.
Or, even if you know it, you can pretend not to know it.
Even if the marriage proposal is cancelled, it doesn’t matter.
After all, the two families haven't held the engagement ceremony yet, right?
But, after Zheng Suxin shouted like that, things were different.
Isn't my fame...
Xuanyuan Hui became anxious and pulled her hand out abruptly.
"What are you talking about, sister Xin?" Xuanyuan Hui said hurriedly, "Although our two families are close friends, how can we have any engagement? I have always treated you as my own sister, and your brother as my brother. Sister Xin, please don't say such nonsense!"
Zheng Suxin: “…”
Looking at Xuanyuan Hui in disbelief.
Xuanyuan Hui: "..."
Xuanyuan Hui looked a little guilty, and her eyes avoided Zheng Suxin.
"Hahaha……"
Princess Linghua laughed wildly.
"Well, am I right?" Princess Linghua said with a smile, "How can someone like her be sincere? She's full of little schemes!"
Xuanyuan Hui's face immediately turned red.
He glared at Princess Linghua and said, "That sounds nice, but are you really going to marry a cripple?"
"What a joke! He and I have nothing to do with each other, so why should I marry him?" Princess Linghua said confidently, "If this princess has her eyes on someone, even if he's a cripple, or even a fool, I'll still marry him!"
Xuanyuan Hui: "..."
I believed your lies!
