Su Nuannuan couldn't help laughing and said, "Listen to what you said. What do you mean by old and ugly? Aunt Jiang is not even thirty, right? She is old and ugly? Don't treat her like this. Besides, what do you mean your master can't be interested in her? If Duan Tingxuan judges people by appearance, what can I do? As for the self-torture scheme to be a spy, I don't think it's necessary. If Aunt Jiang is really willing to be used by Xu Ranyun to this extent, she is so stupid. Even if she is loyal, what is there to fear? Can't I even deal with such a loyal person? Don't worry, if she really wants to stir up trouble here, that's great. Let me show you how to deal with her. With you by my side, I am confident that I will not be deceived by her."
Honglian heard this, and she was very comforted by her grandmother's trust in her trusted girls, but she still couldn't help complaining: "Grandpa is right, grandma is too kind. Although you are confident in what you said, this may be a wolf in the house."
Su Nuannuan immediately stood up with her hands on her hips, gritting her teeth and saying, "Bah! Your master still has the nerve to say that? If it weren't for my kindness, his backyard would have been burned several times. Everyone has the right to say that I am too soft-hearted, except him. He should be thankful that he has a virtuous wife like me who is kind and righteous but not foolish. He is very lucky, don't you know?"
This sentence made Honglian burst into laughter, and she nodded repeatedly, saying, "Grandma is right. It is really a blessing for Grandpa to marry Grandma."
After that, Su Nuannuan smiled bitterly and said, "There are endless fights among the families. It's not easy for a woman like Aunt Jiang to survive. I can help her, so why not? Maybe in the future, there will be a helper like Aunt Jing. If I don't help her, I don't know what will happen between her and Xu Ranyun..."
Before she could finish, Honglian curled her lips and said, "That's better. Then grandma can just sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers. Anyway, none of them are good."
Su Nuannuan stopped talking because she knew that no matter how much she said, Honglian would not understand her thoughts. After all, she had never heard the song "Why Do Women Make Things Difficult for Other Women", and even if she had heard it, she might not agree with it.
But Su Nuannuan couldn't do that. She had to admit that she was still a bit of a saint in this regard. She felt that Aunt Jiang was not bad at heart. That woman just wanted to live a peaceful and smooth life. Watching her son grow up, get married and have children was the most basic wish of human beings. So it wasn't Aunt Jiang who was bad, but the feudal social system that didn't treat women as human beings.
Of course. There was no need to say these words. As she was thinking about what reason to ask Aunt Jiang and her son to come over to her side, she suddenly heard the ringing of the clock outside, so she leaned over and asked, "What time is it? Why hasn't your master come back yet? Send someone to check in front."
Xiangyun agreed and sent the clever Xing'er to the front yard. A quarter of an hour later, Xing'er came back and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't returned yet. He is talking to the Lord in the study. I didn't dare to disturb him and quietly returned."
"Oh, I see." Su Nuannuan replied. Then she leaned on the couch, thinking about the study room? Could it be that Duan Tingxuan told the Crown Prince about the Fourth Prince? Hmm! This is a good opportunity. Even if there are some spies in the Marquis' Mansion, it is impossible to have as many as in the Eastern Palace. If this matter is quietly said in the Anping Marquis' Mansion, it can be kept confidential to the greatest extent.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Su Donglou and Lu Fengyu, and wondered what happened to that pair of happy enemies. Has Lu Dushe been eaten up by Su Evil Wolf? Haha, that's a poisonous snake. It's no joke to be bitten by him. I don't know if Su Donglou, the evil wolf, can really suppress Lu Fengyu's poisonous snake and make him unable to turn over forever.
Let’s not talk about Su Nuannuan reminiscing about Jiangnan here, let’s just talk about Duan Tingxuan and the prince, the two of them were having a secret discussion in the study, and they were indeed discussing the matter of the fourth prince Jiang Changjing.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had just learned the shocking secret of his fourth brother's life experience from Duan Tingxuan, was devastated. He simply could not accept this fact.
Because the emperor had already chosen the crown prince, there was not much strife in the harem, and the two adult princes, the second and fourth princes, always followed the crown prince's lead, so at this time, the royal family of Da Yin was a scene of brotherly friendship and harmony. The emperor was most proud of the fact that he had realized the desire for family unity and friendship that was rarely realized in the royal family throughout history.
Who would have thought that today, a thunderbolt would shake the sky. The two cousins had been working as undercover spies in Jiangnan (the prince imagined it), and finally found out such news. There was actually a traitor among them, although this traitor still didn't know that he was a traitor.
Duan Tingxuan said nothing, and quietly watched the fat body of the Crown Prince pacing on the ground as fast as a whirlwind, circle after circle, circle after circle...
It was unknown how long it had been before the Crown Prince finally stopped. Sweat beads were dripping down his head and face, but he didn't bother to wipe them off. Instead, he asked Duan Tingxuan angrily, "Why didn't you say anything? What are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking that your highness's brisk walk was really good. At least you can lose two pounds of weight. It won't matter if you eat a little more Buddha Jumps Over the Wall tomorrow."
Prince: ...
However, with Duan Tingxuan's humorous answer, the Crown Prince's chaotic and irritable mood finally calmed down a little.
He sat down on the couch and took a few breaths when he felt the heat was so hot that he couldn't breathe. He looked around and saw a decorative feather fan on the wall, so he took it and began to fan himself vigorously. However, Duan Tingxuan said with a distressed look, "Your Highness, I asked a skilled craftsman to make it for me with swan feathers. I usually don't want to use it, but you let me use it. If you want to fan yourself, tell me. I have more than a dozen paper fans in this drawer. Why waste my beloved things? You look like Zhuge Liang even if you fan yourself with a feather fan."
"Bah! What's wrong with wasting today? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will punish you for disrespect. Look at all the civil and military officials in the court, no, even all the officials in the world combined, is there anyone who dares to speak to me like you?" The prince put on the airs of the crown prince of the Eastern Palace and glared at Duan Tingxuan viciously.
"I'm talking to my cousin, not the crown prince. I will behave properly in front of the crown prince." Duan Tingxuan blinked and looked at the crown prince innocently. Seeing a smile on his face, he felt relieved.
Just as Duan Tingxuan and Su Donglou said that day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a man of loyalty and friendship, and between the Emperor and the Crown Prince, one of them must know about this matter, and Duan Tingxuan chose the Crown Prince. After all, the Emperor would not tolerate anyone cuckolding him, not even his own brother; but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a deep brotherly relationship with the Fourth Prince, and if the Fourth Prince is to be saved, it is not difficult to choose between the two candidates.
