Zheng's mother shook her head at Jade and signaled her not to get involved, lest she be affected.

With tears streaming down her face, Jade looked up at Han Qingwan, her eyes full of pleading.

Under the public gaze, everyone was staring at this place, and Han Qingwan could not pretend not to see it.

She stood up and pulled Jade's arm, and said softly, "Mother Zheng's one thought led to a big mistake. Although I feel sorry for her and have been loyal to her for most of my life, she harmed the eldest sister, broke the princess's rules, and messed up the hierarchy.

…”

Her eyes were red, "It's only your master's fault. I can't do anything either."

Jade heard the implication between her words. It was the eldest lady that Zheng's mother had harmed, and the second lady had no position to plead for mercy. Moreover, her status was low, and she was not capable of saving people from the princess.

The only person who can save my mother is the eldest lady.

Jade hesitated for a moment, but did not get up and walked on her knees in the direction of Han Youning.

The flower hall was quite large, and Han Youning was sitting in the corner. The distance was not close, which caused many people to sigh.

Jade is a decent maid, so humble, she can be regarded as risking her face.

But I don’t know how Miss Han will deal with it.

She walked up to Han Youning, kowtowed three times, and then lay on the ground, "Miss, please help me save my mother!"

Han Youning frowned slightly, "You really posed a problem for me. If I don't agree to you, and so many people are watching, they will inevitably say that I am cold-hearted. If I agree to you, I will ask the princess. I myself

The grievance I suffered is nothing, but the princess is also wronged. I don’t have much face with the princess, and I don’t know what price I have to pay for it.”

Jade fell to the ground and cried, "I am the slave who has made things difficult for me. I just ask the eldest lady to say a few good words to the princess..."

Han Youning sighed and said helplessly, "I'll do my best."

Hu Mingzhu stood up and walked over, and glanced at a lady sitting diagonally opposite Han Youning. The lady quickly got up.

Hu Mingzhu sat down and sneered, "Miss Han wants to be a good person, but the price is too low."

Han Youning smiled and asked, "Princess, tell me, what is the price?"

Hu Mingzhu got angry when she saw her calm look, but it seemed that she was not calm enough. The prince treated Han Youning differently, and even went to the emperor and asked to marry her, fearing that he would be attracted by her pretentious appearance.

Already?

She glanced at Mrs. Zhongguo and smiled, "Speaking of it, it's not a price, it's a great joy. I have a half-brother who is sixteen years old this year and has been named the crown prince.

I am a perfect match for you. If you become my sister-in-law, it will be easier to say anything."

The ladies and ladies in the hall all showed shocked expressions.

This is simply too much!

It's not because it's against the rules to discuss marriage with a lady in public, but because this loyal prince...

He looks very talented, but his brain was broken when he was young, and he has always been as naive as a three-year-old child.

Wouldn't marrying him be equivalent to raising a son?

Mrs. Lu was unhappy when she heard this, and she patted the table and said, "Ning Yatou is not worthy of any kind of family, but she doesn't care about the prince!"

Hu Mingzhu said coldly, "If you want everything to go smoothly, don't force yourself to do anything."

"Ning Yatou is not trying to show off her strength, but is she being forced to ride a tiger by the master and servant of Miss Han?"

Mrs. Lu glared at Han Qingwan fiercely and said to Han Youning, "Girl Ning, if Mother Zheng tricked you, she will be the one to blame for her death. You don't need to care about what others think, and there is no need to save her!"

There was nothing unexpected about Han Youning. In her previous life, Hu Mingzhu also arranged a match between her and Prince Zhongguo, and even asked the Queen Mother for a marriage.

The marriage decree was sent to Duke Dingguo's mansion. At that time, his father and brother went to the battlefield and Zhao Chen was not in the capital. Mrs. Han happily accepted the decree and began to celebrate the six ceremonies with Duke Zhongguo's wife.

She begged the old lady to no avail, so she went on a hunger strike. But the old lady Han said, "You are on a hunger strike to resist the decree. Your father and brother are already in dire straits. Are you planning to take their lives?"

After Zhao Chen returned to Beijing, she didn't know what he had done, and the Queen Mother took back her decree.

She asked Zhao Chen, and he smiled and said, "The imperial grandmother loves me, it's just a matter of words. You, wait until you become the crown princess."

Han Youning bowed to Mrs. Lu and said, "Although Mother Zheng has evil thoughts, her sins are not worthy of death. I am a half-disciple of Buddhism. The matter is right at hand. I cannot ignore death."

Mrs. Lu frowned, could it be that that little fool was stronger than A Yuan?

Han Youning stood up, walked to Hu Mingzhu, leaned over and said with a smile, "After all, it is inappropriate to talk about this in public. How about the princess go to my yard to drink tea?"

Is this a promise?

Hu Mingzhu, like everyone else, did not expect that she would really agree.

Han Youning has a bright future now. Even if she becomes a princess, why would she spend her whole life for a slave who harmed her?

Hu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and stood up, "Okay."

Jade's face changed, and when Han Youning was about to leave, she said, "Miss, you can't agree!"

Han Youning turned around and asked her, "Aren't you going to save your mother?"

Jade shed tears and slowly shook her head, "This slave has no reason to risk the eldest lady's life."

Han Youning smiled and made an invitation gesture to Hu Mingzhu, "Princess, please."

The two of them left the flower hall in the eyes of everyone with sympathy, admiration and surprise.

The unexpected turn of events made everyone respect Han Youning.

Even the ladies who were good friends with Mrs. Han were all shocked.

Although she felt that this was a stupid move, it makes sense since she was acting according to Buddhist rules. Or should she say that she was a disciple of Master Xuanzhi?

On the other hand, Mrs. Han's evil thoughts and methods of harming people have become more and more obvious. No matter how hard she tried to explain or find a scapegoat, it did not hinder the truth that everyone had already recognized.

Everyone discussed quietly.

"I don't understand what Mrs. Han is thinking. Won't she also benefit from Miss Han's good future?"

"Hey, you don't understand. If you marry an eldest lady who is not your direct relative, won't there be a second young lady who is not your direct relative? There is only one phoenix in the Dingguo Duke's mansion."

"No wonder Second Miss Han encouraged the maid to beg Miss Han..."

…

Mrs. Han had a sharp ear and eyesight, so those words entered her ears intermittently, but she could only pretend that she could not hear them.

Zhao Xiang'er entered the flower hall with a smile on her face.

After looking around but not seeing Han Youning, she walked over to Zhao Caidan and asked about what had just happened.

She was angry and anxious, "Sister, why did you let sister Youning go? What if you agree? Think of a way!"

Zhao Caidan pulled her to sit down and comforted her with a smile, "Marriage can be settled with just two little girls."

She glanced at Mrs. Han meaningfully, "In the end, don't we have to have Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhongguo nod?"
