Aunt Zhao was so frightened that she felt like she had lost her soul.
Her hands and feet were trembling, and she couldn't even utter a complete sentence. She knelt on the ground and pulled at Tong's clothes, "Princess...Princess...She, she said Xiangling...came back to find us, right...right behind me!"
At this moment, Madam Zhao not only didn't dare to look back, she even dragged her heavy body forward bit by bit. If she wasn't afraid of death, she might have already crawled into Tong's skirt...
Tong had a splitting headache, and her beautiful eyebrows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly.
But she had seen more of the world than Madam Zhao, so she pushed Madam Zhao away, propped herself up on the table, held her forehead and shouted angrily, "How dare you! Jiang, you are so bold! How dare you spread rumors and mislead people in the Qinwang Mansion!"
Jiang Ying noticed that Tong had a headache and was afraid that it felt like a hammer was hitting her head.
In such pain, no matter how fierce she is, she is just a paper tiger and is useless.
Jiang Ying then shrugged cheekily, "Princess, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door.
"Madam Zhao is like this, I'm afraid she has done too many bad things, right?
"The princess is so good, not only did she not pursue her fault, but she blamed me instead. What's the logic behind this?"
She looked at Tong, whose eyes were gleaming with ferocity, and smiled with a forced smile, "Or perhaps, the princess actually knew about this? The reason she took her anger out on me is to stop Madam Zhao from revealing the truth, right?"
"You are talking nonsense!" Tong was so angry that she wanted to slam the table. She bent down and picked up Zhao Ma from the ground.
Of course, Zhao Mama was tall and strong, and it was almost impossible to shake Tong's thin physique!
Tong gritted her teeth and fiercely twisted Madam Zhao's head, forcing her to look diagonally behind her. "Madam Zhao, please take a good look at this for me. Where is the ghost? It's clearly that village girl trying to scare you!"
"No...Princess...I dare not!" Nanny Zhao was extremely resistant at first.
But in the end, he forced himself to open his eyes under Tong's stern shouting.
Then, she really didn't see anything. Just as she was grinning with joy, Jiang Ying said quietly, "Although they are ghosts, they are not stupid. Anyone can see them, but their enemies naturally can't see them!"
Aunt Zhao, “…”
This one sentence made her face pale again and her lips trembled.
Tong knew very well that if she continued like this, it wouldn't be her, the high and mighty princess, who was intimidating Jiang Ying, but Jiang Ying who was making her lose face. So, she said coldly, "Come here, Jiang is disrespectful to me. Suppress her and lock her up in the woodshed, and wait for my punishment!"
After all, Jiang is Yan Zhuo's person. It is unrealistic to kill her, but it is easy to make her suffer.
Thinking of this, Tong was extremely annoyed. If she had known earlier, she should have locked her up when she first came, so as to avoid causing so much trouble.
Anything else would be fine, but if the King Qin finds out, I will have to explain myself and be careful.
Jiang Ying had expected that today would most likely be a Hongmen Banquet, but she didn't regret it at all. Instead of letting Tong make sarcastic remarks about her, they might as well just go for it. Anyway, no matter what, Tong wouldn't dare to kill her.
As for the others, she is not afraid as long as there is space.
There's no need to hold it in and make yourself uncomfortable.
However, before Tong's men could get close to Jiang Ying and her son, the palace steward suddenly ran in in a panic.
"Princess, the prince has returned! And... Old Madam Jiang has hurriedly handed a visiting card to the concierge!"
"He's here after all!" Tong squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, her face full of unwillingness.
Her stepson, who was very opinionated, was a wolf cub whom she had spent nearly twenty years trying to tame. She really couldn't understand what was so good about Jiang that he loved her so much.
Meanwhile, Tong's face was filled with annoyance and surprise. "Old Madam Jiang? Our Qin Palace has never had much contact with the Jiang family. Why is she here?"
When Jiang Ying heard that Lian had arrived, he couldn't help but tighten his arms around little Yan Zhi.
This time, will it be...what she expected?
The housekeeper glanced at the silent Jiang Ying and spoke quietly, "Princess, didn't the emperor grant our prince a marriage? That girl is the granddaughter of Old Lady Jiang. Maybe she came here because of the marriage."
Tong thought it made sense. As long as he wasn't here for Jiang, she would be happy.
With so many distinguished guests, Tong had no time to worry about imprisoning Jiang Ying. She rubbed her temples and moved lightly.
"Since she's the old lady from the Duke's Mansion, then go and greet her. Oh, and have the Duke wait in the hall with her. This is his future grandmother, the wife's family, and they're much more important than those little bastards!"
As he said this, he glanced at Jiang Ying smugly, as if he could stab her in the heart.
However, Jiang Ying was not impressed by this clumsy provocation. Instead, he curled his lips and muttered:
Who is the little thing? You are the little thing. Your whole family is nothing except you!
Tong left triumphantly with a group of people, leaving only two old women with dead faces staring at Jiang Ying.
It doesn't matter what she does, she can't leave anyway.
Jiang Ying didn't care and started to stroll around the house with her son in her arms. She saw a lot of good things on the antique display cabinet, and when the old woman wasn't paying attention, she put them all into the space.
He also quietly sprinkled a kind of medicinal powder on the potted plants raised by Tong.
You can't see anything now, but in a couple of days, ants and earthworms will grow there, and the whole house will be flooded with them. I'm afraid Tong will be so scared that she won't be able to eat for half a month!
A Hongmen Feast? Control her?
It’s good enough that she doesn’t bully others!
The front hall of the palace.
Yan Zhuo, with his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, looked unhappy when he saw that only Tong came out. He had the urge to get up and rush to the backyard to find Jiang Ying.
