Xiao Wei was extremely anxious now and had no mood to cause trouble for Yun Fang. After convincing Wu Yiyu, he immediately asked someone to pack up and return to Ningxia.
Her visit to King Yanbei to discuss the issue of garrisoning troops in Ningxia ended up in nothing, and she had no chance to talk to Xiao Yan at all.
When the old princess learned the reason why Xiao Wei wanted to return to Ningxia, she was very angry and scolded Wu Xiaohe severely, but she could only let Xiao Wei and her daughter leave.
The princess had three carts of gifts prepared for Xiao Wei and her daughter to take back to Ningxia, doing everything she could to save face. However, when the Wu family's carriage left the Yanbei Palace, the princess claimed illness and did not see them off. She only allowed her maid to show up briefly, and Xiao Jinglin didn't even show up. This made the old princess furious again.
In fact, the old princess had never considered that as the mistress of the Yanbei Palace, she had the right and the qualification to dislike anyone she did not want to see. The princess had always given the old princess face and tolerated Xiao Wei and her daughter in order to avoid embarrassment.
But the princess is the princess after all. If you insist on breaking up with her, there is no reason for her to pamper you. Even if she doesn't mind, the dignity of the Yanbei Palace cannot tolerate it.
Xiao Jinglin sat by the window on the second floor of a restaurant in Yunyang City, sipping the sweet wine in the glass with an expressionless face. He watched the Wu family's carriage drive out of Yunyang City in a grand manner, and then turned his head back with an expressionless face.
"It's too sweet!" Xiao Jinglin put down the wine glass in his hand.
The man in ink-colored clothes opposite smiled when he heard this, then picked up the jade pot at hand and filled the wine glass in front of Xiao Jinglin again. His movements were graceful and from a distance it looked like an exquisite ink landscape painting.
"But you like it." He smiled and said, "But don't drink too much. Finish this small pot and stop."
Xiao Jinglin frowned, somewhat dissatisfied: "I already said it was very sweet, not like wine at all."
The man opposite was unmoved: "It's not like wine, but it's still wine, and it has a strong aftereffect. If you go out on your own in the future, don't drink this peach wine. If no one is watching you, you'll be drunk before you know it."
Xiao Jinglin finished the wine in his glass in one gulp, pursed his lips, and changed the subject: "Xiao Jingxi, was it you who did that in Ningxia? I was still worried about how to avenge Wu Yiyu's death with that poisonous spider. How can I vent my anger when you took her away like this?"
Xiao Jingxi gently swatted Xiao Jinglin's hand away from the wine jug, then filled her glass himself. "How do you want to vent your anger? She might not be your match in a fight. But if you want to go beyond using tricks and undermining others... it's better to give her an opponent who can match her. You don't need to waste your time on these things. After all, everyone has their own battlefield, and using your own weaknesses to attack someone else's strengths is not a good idea."
Xiao Jinglin thought about it and felt that what Xiao Jingxi said made sense. The most direct method she could think of was to beat Wu Yiyu up while the wind was high and the moon was dark. But there was Yun Fang's incident before. Although she was not afraid of Xiao Wei and her daughter, she was worried that the princess would be embarrassed by the old princess.
"Is Di Hao from Ningxia your man?" Xiao Jinglin asked.
Xiao Jingxi put down the small jade pot in his hand and chuckled, "What does it matter whether they are my people or not? Those who can be used don't necessarily have to be my own people. You have read military books and history books. You should know that both ministers and generals need to be transferred and rotated from time to time, because staying in one place for too long will easily lead to changes. The Wu family has been in Ningxia for four generations, right?"
