In Fangning Garden.
Old Madam Yang Ruzhen sat on the couch, wearing a gold embroidered forehead band, holding a teacup in her hand, her eyes gently sweeping over the younger generations in the room.
"Sheng Shi was also eager to save Zhu'er. Besides, it was the Second Prince who was behind this trick. Sheng Shi is a skilled martial artist, so he wasn't tricked. How can we blame him?"
[That's right, he's weak, but he's right.]
My mother said it well, applause.
Old lady Yang Ruzhen looked at her daughter who was being held by her daughter-in-law, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth again.
She pulled out the jade hairpin and said, "Runian, take this thing and go find Queen Lin and tell her to have a chat at her mansion!"
"Mom, what are you doing..." Jing Runian didn't understand what she meant.
"Back then, before Queen Lin entered the palace, your father saved her life. Queen Lin, feeling grateful, left this jade hairpin for your father, saying that if he encountered difficulties in the future, he could come to her.
Since the Second Prince has come crashing down on us, we have to teach him a lesson, right?"
When Jing Runian heard this, he immediately rejected it: "Not appropriate."
He analyzed, "Mother, the Second Prince's biological mother, Concubine Yue, is His Majesty's most beloved concubine."
"Da Lang, you're too nervous. This is just to let Queen Lin repay her kindness. This way, your son will be safe!"
After much thought, the old lady felt that Queen Lin was a good backer.
Jing Ruchang also echoed beside him: "Brother, just do as Mother says. You know, the Second Prince is the backer of the Earl's Mansion. Toppling the Second Prince will only benefit us."
"Second brother, Daddy said before he died that His Majesty is suspicious by nature and hates factions. If we seek Queen Lin's help to overthrow the Second Prince, it would be fine, but if we make a mistake, then..."
When talking about these things, everyone present remained silent.
indeed.
Your Majesty favors Concubine Yue and dislikes Queen Lin because he is worried about the Crown Prince's enormous power.
If at this time, the General's Mansion, which holds military power, gets close to the Crown Prince, there is no guarantee that His Majesty will become suspicious in that direction.
"Everyone outside knows that your father saved Queen Lin. Even if we don't seek Queen Lin's help, we can't stop Youyou from talking."
The old lady thought Jing Runian was overthinking it. "If this continues, and that evil Second Prince complains first, it will be of no benefit to Yu Shengshi or Yu Lian'er."
"But..." Jing Runian hesitated.
This is a dilemma.
Just when everyone was hesitating and didn't know how to respond.
Jing Qiaoqiao couldn't help but complain again.
[You idiots, if you don't know how to choose, then don't choose at all.]
[The old emperor may be suspicious by nature, but he still wants to keep the crown prince and the second prince. Let's learn from him and treat them equally.]
[Empress Lin was the champion of the previous palace fight. Although there is a concubine lying in the arms of the old emperor, didn't her son become the crown prince?]
Therefore, don't underestimate Empress Lin's scheming. As soon as you ask her for help, she will immediately run to the old emperor without waiting for the spies to report, saying that our general's mansion has a good relationship with her.
[My father has passed away, and Queen Lin has long forgotten to repay her kindness. Don't ask her for help, or you'll end up getting burned.]
[However, I can't apologize to the Second Prince either. He was the one who bullied my niece first.]
Everyone: Qiaoqiao, why don’t you say a little more? Go on, we’re all listening.
"Da Lang, I've thought this over carefully." Madam Yang Ruzhen dropped her hands on her knees, her expression changing instantly. "You're not without reason. We, the General's Mansion, must maintain our distance from the Empress."
My mother is really smart. Even if she doesn't react immediately, she can still listen to other people's opinions. Such a perfect woman is a blessing for my father.
The corners of Jing Runian's mouth twitched, and his wife, second brother and sister-in-law beside him tried hard not to laugh out loud.
Even the old lady Yang Ruzhen, who was sitting there, choked several times while drinking tea.
"Mom, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Old Madam Yang Ruzhen lost herself in Qiaoqiao's praise. "Well, you guys continue, continue."
Everyone: Waiting for Qiaoqiao, can’t continue.
Unfortunately, Jing Qiaoqiao yawned and fell asleep.
In the end, Jing Runian had no choice but to recall Jing Qiaoqiao's words and come up with a compromise.
"Mother, if you don't plead with the Queen, and don't confess your guilt to the Second Prince, then we can only fight to the end!"
"I'll listen to Dalang this time."
Qiaoqiao has great magical powers, so what demons and monsters is there to be afraid of?
"However, Dalang, Lian'er's marriage to Yang Sheng was granted by His Majesty. Since we are now divorced, we must appear before His Majesty." Madam Yang Ruzhen's face was serious. "Tomorrow, you will follow me into the palace."
"yes."
The younger generations obeyed.
The other side.
Jing Shengzhu was in a daze in the room.
Cousin Sheng Shi provoked the Second Prince in order to save himself.
If the Second Prince makes a fuss about this matter, cousin Sheng Han will definitely be in great danger.
Seeing that her young lady was distracted, the maid Xiang'er asked curiously, "Young lady, are you... okay?"
"I've made up my mind!" Jing Shengzhu stood up unexpectedly.
Her eyes were firm. "If you cure the Second Prince's eyes, he won't be able to openly cause trouble for Cousin Sheng Shi!"
The slave girl Xiang'er didn't react: "Miss, what are you talking about?"
"Xiang'er, where is the spiritual spring that I asked you to keep for me last time?"
"Spiritual Spring?" The servant Xiang'er hesitated, "What is that?"
"That's the detoxifying potion Mu Qingran brought me last time!" Jing Shengzhu gestured, "The one in the small porcelain bottle?"
