Chapter 468 Nan Kangbo, romantic debts everywhere

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw several ladies surrounding a person walking towards them from a distance. The one in the middle was dressed elegantly and luxuriously, and it was obvious that she was of noble status.

"Isn't that the current Queen's elder sister, Lady Nan Kangbo?"

"I heard that his beloved son-in-law was sent to prison by King Xuan and will be executed in the autumn. Now that King Xuan's most beloved woman is here, I'm afraid there will be something interesting to watch!"

Xie Zhuoning didn't expect that he would run into trouble as soon as he entered the Princess's Mansion.

She looked up and saw Sima Ru leading a large group of people, walking towards her with great momentum.

"The situation is not good, Sister Zhuoning." Song Yuqiu muttered softly.

"Don't panic." Xie Zhuoning was as steady as a rock.

Sima Ru walked up to her, glanced at Xie Zhuoning with contempt, and said, "Are you the concubine of Prince Xuan? You really look like a foxy girl. But unfortunately, the Princess's Mansion is not a place for you to run wild. A mere concubine dares to steal the invitation of the master. Come, arrest her!"

Xie Zhuoning showed the invitation and waved it in front of everyone, "Everyone, look carefully, this is an invitation that the eldest princess sent to me specially. I didn't steal it."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, "Really? Why would the princess send an invitation to such a person?"

"that is."

Sima Ru didn't care and snatched the invitation card and tore it into pieces. "Okay, so you didn't steal it, but forged it yourself. Your crime is even more serious. Catch her for me!"

The place was occupied only by women, there were no servants, and a few sturdy old women rolled up their sleeves and rushed over.

Xie Zhuoning didn't move. He just watched Xia Ju slap the old women one by one, and quickly slapped them all away.

Sima Ru's eyes widened with anger. "You, you dare to resist! You are committing insubordination!"

With a flash of impatience in his eyes, Xie Zhuoning said, "Instead of caring about me, Madam Nankangbo should care about Nankangbo's children who are living abroad. Nankangbo has traveled all over the world, has many romantic affairs and debts, and I'm afraid he has so many illegitimate children that you can't even count them on one hand, right?"

"You're talking nonsense, I've taken care of it all!" Sima Ru blurted out.

"Oh?" Xie Zhuoning suddenly showed an intriguing expression, "So, Mrs. Nan Kangbo still has a life on her hands."

There were voices of pointing and talking all around, and Sima Ru suddenly became extremely flustered.

This matter is the biggest secret of Nankangbo Mansion.

She had given up her engagement with Emperor Zhaowen, who was still a prince, and remarried the Earl of Nankang. But within a few years, the situation was reversed, and her sister, who had married in her place, became the empress. She was heartbroken.

In order not to be outdone, she publicized how loving and affectionate she and Nan Kangbo were.

Knowing that she had damaged her body while giving birth to a daughter, Nan Kangbo never forced her to have children again, and he didn't even think about passing on the family lineage.

For a man to love a woman so much that he is willing to cut off his offspring, how deep must his love be!

But this seemingly glamorous life is all an illusion.

Only after marrying Nan Kangbo did she realize that he was a playboy.

Not only does he have no ambition, but he only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun, and indulge in the mountains and rivers.

The most unbearable thing is that wherever he goes, some romantic affair will happen and leave behind a passionate love affair.

The most important thing is that he is not picky. As long as she suits his taste, it doesn't matter if she is a widow or a nun, not to mention those prostitutes with all kinds of tricks!

She had had enough of taking care of those women for him along the way and was almost driven crazy!

But now, the secret she had been hiding was revealed!

"I used to envy Nan Kangbo for being so nice to her, but it turns out it was all fake."

"Ah, what did she want? She could have been the queen, but she insisted on marrying a playboy."

"Isn't that because you disliked the emperor's lack of favor when he was in the palace?"

"From the tone of her voice, she still has to clean up her husband's mess. Tsk tsk, how pitiful!"

"No!" Sima Ru shook her head desperately to deny, "It's not like that, it's not like that!"

She wanted to explain, but found that no matter how she explained, it seemed pale.

When everything was in chaos, someone shouted, "The princess is here!"

Everyone separated to the sides. Princess Jing'an walked over with a noble and elegant pace and calmly ordered, "Mrs. Nankangbo is not feeling well. Cuiping, help her to the guest room to rest."

"yes."

The maids helped Sima Ru down, and everyone greeted Princess Jing'an. Xie Zhuoning also followed suit.

Princess Jing'an walked up to Xie Zhuoning and stared at her face, looking a little dazed. "Yes, if I didn't know that Princess Xuan was dead, I would have thought that you were her."

Xie Zhuoning listened to these words with a hint of meaning and responded, "The eldest princess is joking. If I were the former princess, I would probably wake up laughing even in my sleep."

Princess Jing'an nodded slightly, "I have too many guests today, so I'm afraid I can't take good care of you. Just treat it like you're at home, don't be too picky."

"Thank you, Princess, for your concern."

After exchanging a few insignificant pleasantries, Princess Jing'an left to greet other ladies.

Song Yuqiu watched her leave and whispered, "Sister Zhuoning, why did she just leave like that? I thought she was going to do something to you, but she just left it like that."

Xie Zhuoning smiled meaningfully, "Who said she did nothing?"

Song Yuqiu looked confused. "What did she do? It seemed like she just asked you a few insignificant questions."

"Guess why Sima Ru came to me in such a rage as soon as I arrived?"

It was obvious that the battle had been planned long ago.

However, the guest lists for banquets are kept confidential, and no one is idle enough to ask about the guest lists of others.

There was only one possibility, that the princess had already sent someone to tell Sima Ru about her invitation.

"If Sima Ru had succeeded in taking me down, the princess would have definitely come out and said that she had not passed me the invitation, thus confirming my crime of stealing the invitation. But Sima Ru was defeated by me, so the princess had to come out to interrupt and clean up the mess."

Otherwise, if we continue talking, it will be Sima Ru who will be arrested and investigated.

Song Yuqiu: “Ah?”

She really thought that it was because of the old grudge between Sima Ru and Prince Xuan's Mansion, but she didn't expect that there was a mastermind behind the scenes!

"Princess Jing'an should have recognized me, so this matter will definitely not end so easily. Xia Ju, I'm not worried. Just be alert and stay close to me, don't get caught."

Song Yuqiu nodded heavily.

Can you not follow closely? If you don't follow closely, you will die!

Seeing that she, a concubine, dared to come to such an occasion, many ladies who came were dissatisfied with her.

Not only did they not talk to her, but they all huddled together and didn't sit next to her, isolating her.

Seeing this, Xie Zhuoning thought it was great and asked Xia Ju and Song Yuqiu to sit down and eat.

The three of them occupied the entire table, it was simply too good to be true.
