Shen Weining paused and looked up in disbelief.
"What? Say it again!"
Liu Linlang curled her lips slightly, as if she had expected Shen Weining to have this reaction.
She repeated, "I saw Jiang Jingyu go out last night with my own eyes, and she didn't come back until almost dawn."
Liu Linlang was talking nonsense in a serious manner.
It was absolutely true that she saw Jiang Jingyu coming back from outside, but who knew when Jiang Jingyu went out.
Anyway, the fact that Jiang Jingyu came back from outside late at night is a fact. What's the difference between being out for a while and being out for a whole night?
Who cares?
She lost to Jiang Jingyu in the chess selection and was humiliated. Sooner or later, she will get revenge from Jiang Jingyu!
When Jiang Jingyu's reputation is ruined, people will only remember her stains. How could they remember that she once shone brightly in the selection of concubines?
By then, the best chess girl in Kyoto would only be Liu Linlang, the disciple of her, the chess god!
Shen Weining threw the brush aside and stared at Liu Linlang: "Is this serious?"
"Sister Ning, it's absolutely true! Linlang saw it with her own eyes! Linlang didn't dare tell anyone else about it, so she rushed to Chuxiu Palace early in the morning to tell Sister Ning."
Shen Weining smiled suddenly, with a calculating look in his eyes.
Thinking of something, she solemnly warned, "Linlang, you did a great job. This matter is between you and me, so please don't tell anyone else, okay?"
Liu Linlang lowered her eyes to hide the sneer in them, "Idiot, do you really need to remind me of this?"
"Don't worry, Sister Ning. Linlang will never tell anyone else."
Liu Linlang lowered her head and assured Chen Weining in a soft and weak voice.
After hiding the mockery in her eyes, Liu Linlang raised her head and asked in confusion, "Sister Ning, you said Jiang Jingyu didn't return to the Palace of Showgirls last night, so where did she go?"
Shen Weining narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "She didn't return to the Palace of Showgirls all night. Is there any need to guess where she went? She must have gone out to fool around with some wild man in the palace!"
She knew that Jiang Jingyu was a vixen. She had just entered the palace and she had hooked up with a wild man in the palace. How shameless!
When Shen Weining said the truth she had been hoping for, Liu Linlang felt relieved instantly.
She pretended to be terrified: "Ghost, ghosting? Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! This is the imperial palace. As long as you pass the selection of concubines and enter the harem, you will be His Majesty's woman. How dare Jiang Jingyu do such a shameful thing in the palace?"
Liu Linlang suddenly bit her lower lip with a hint of self-blame. "Sister Ning, please don't say such empty words anymore. After all, we didn't see it with our own eyes. As a woman, you should know how important reputation is to a woman."
Shen Weining rolled his eyes at Liu Linlang in annoyance.
"Look at you, you're such a coward! Don't I know that vixen Jiang Jingyu? She must have been fooling around with some wild man last night! If there's one, there's another. Isn't it easy to see it with your own eyes? I'll catch her red-handed tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Linlang clenched her hands and became extremely excited.
Having this idiot Shen Weining take the lead actually saved her a lot of trouble!
However, if Jiang Jingyu really got involved with the palace guards, it would not be a good time to expose him on the spot.
Thinking of this, Liu Linlang said, "Sister Ning, if Jiang Jingyu really is hanging out with a strange man, I think it's not a good time to expose her right then and there. It would be more exciting if we changed the setting."
Shen Weining didn't understand Liu Linlang's hint and asked in confusion, "What occasion do you want to change?"
"Of course it's at the palace banquet. Think about it, Sister Ning. His Majesty and the officials are all there. Wouldn't it be more exciting for Sister Ning to expose Jiang Jingyu's scandal then?"
"Palace banquet?"
Shen Wei was silent for a moment, then raised the corners of his lips: "It's quite exciting!"
Brother Yan was there at that time, and she wanted to let Brother Yan see with her own eyes what kind of person Jiang Jingyu was!
After Liu Linlang told Shen Weining what happened last night, whether true or false, she exaggerated it, and the concubines came in one after another.
Liu Linlang was afraid that Aunt Rong would see her and Shen Weining together, so she quickly moved away from Shen Weining and stood with the other concubines in the same room.
As soon as Jiang Jingyu, Lin Qingwu and Bai Zhixi stepped into the Chuxiu Palace, they noticed a pair of eyes locked on them, and they looked directly in the direction that line of sight was directed.
There was no way, Shen Weining, this idiot, couldn't hide things on his face.
Shen Weining had already determined that Jiang Jingyu had gone out to fool around with a guard in the palace last night.
When he thought about exposing Jiang Jingyu in public at the palace banquet ten days later and completely ruining her reputation, he couldn't suppress the excitement on his face.
Not only Jiang Jingyu, but even Lin Qingwu and Bai Zhixi noticed Shen Weining's overly passionate gaze.
The two of them looked towards the source of the gaze and were slightly stunned when they saw Shen Weining staring straight at them.
Bai Zhixi asked in confusion, "Why is Sister Ning smiling at us all the time? Her smile is so creepy!"
Lin Qingwu leaned close to Bai Zhixi's ear and whispered, "I'm afraid she's not smiling at us, but at Sister Jiang!"
"ah?"
Bai Zhixi was stunned and subconsciously tilted her head to look at Jiang Jingyu next to Lin Qingwu.
Then Jiang Jingyu was seen looking in the direction of Shen Weining.
Bai Zhixi curled her lips and muttered softly, "I wonder what tricks Sister Ning is up to. We're all in the same dormitory. Why is she targeting Sister Jiang all the time?"
Lin Qingwu felt helpless. This girl was really too naive. How could Minister Zuo let her enter the palace with confidence?
"Today's selection is about painting skills. After the selection is over, I have something to tell everyone."
