Chapter 4 Long time no see
"From what you kid said, Yun Shang has worked so hard for the Lu family, isn't it right for Mom to come and see you?"
What Mrs. Lu said was so touching, but Jiang Yunshang only felt a wave of nausea.
But she didn't show it, instead she said with a smile: "Since Yun Shang has married into the Lu family, she is a member of the Lu family, shouldn't she take care of her family a little bit?"
"You are such a good boy. The Lu family will never be able to repay you in this lifetime."
Mrs. Lu was not in a hurry this time, and did not rush to ask anything else. Instead, she slowly chatted away, trying to impress Jiang Yunshang.
But now Jiang Yunshang can no longer appreciate her acting skills. As for what the Lu family owes her, she still has to slowly get it back. Everything she owes has to be repaid. How can she not just say that she can't pay it back?
"Yunshang, have you been too busy these days and forgotten what my mother discussed with you that day?"
After talking so much gossip, Mrs. Lu finally got to the point.
However, Jiang Yunshang had a blank expression. She thought hard for a moment before shaking her head and asking, "When did mother tell me what? My daughter-in-law is stupid and has a bad memory. She really can't remember."
"It's about asking the regent to intercede for your father and Yao'er." Old Mrs. Lu's face looked very ugly for a moment, but she quickly concealed her emotion and immediately said with a smile: "I guess there have been too many things and chaos recently.
, Yun Shang must have been so busy that she forgot."
"No, Miss, she..."
Xiaoyun couldn't stand Mrs. Lu's pretentious attitude and was angry to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Yunshang.
"Xiaoyun..." Jiang Yunshang stopped her with a slight scolding, then raised his head and said to Mrs. Lu: "My daughter-in-law really dare not forget this. But when I went to the palace that day, I happened to meet the regent who was talking to the Lin family.
When the family was ordered to be confiscated, I suddenly felt unlucky, so I avoided it and had a fortune telling.
The hexagram says that it is not suitable for me to ask for help in these two days, and it is easy to cause unforeseen disasters. It is already very difficult for the Lu family, so I want to wait for two days and spend these days before talking."
"So that's it, but this matter can't be delayed for long. The relevant people have been arrested and investigated. If it continues, there will be many variables."
Mrs. Lu had no doubts about Jiang Yunshang's words, but she also urged her to move faster.
It seemed like she was getting anxious, so it was time to take action.
"Miss, should we come later? The regent will be very busy during the day, right?"
The next day, when they all arrived at the gate of the palace, Xiaoyun regretted it.
Looking at this majestic palace, she felt nervous.
Although she has been with Jiang Yunshang for many years, she has not been to many big households before, and there is a big difference between merchants and officials. Even if she has money, there are various restrictions on building a house.
"Please, let me see the prince. I really have something important to say to the prince."
When Jiang Yunshang and the others arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw a young and beautiful woman kneeling at the gate begging to see Feng Yi.
"Miss, isn't that the daughter of the Lin family?"
Xiaoyun recognized at a glance that this woman was Lin Miaomiao, the daughter of the Lin family whose house had been ransacked before.
Lin Miaomiao and Jiang Yunshang had met before and were considered old acquaintances. However, due to their status, their friendship was not deep.
"How dare you, how can it be that you, the daughter of a guilty minister, can see the prince whenever you want?"
A guard stood at the door with a spear in hand and scolded Lin Miaomiao coldly, without any intention of being accommodating.
"Miss, otherwise we should go back." Xiaoyun was already scared, but seeing this scene made him even more scared.
Jiang Yunshang didn't pay attention to Xiaoyun's words, and was still wondering why Lin Miaomiao was here. The Lin family's house was ransacked before, and it was obvious that they were all taken away. Could it be that Feng Yi missed the old relationship and only arrested the main criminal and let the family go?
"Miss, are you listening to me?"
Seeing that Jiang Yunshang ignored her, Xiaoyun was even more frightened, because when she raised her head, her eyes met the guard at the door.
The other party's sharp eyes frightened her so much that her whole body trembled slightly, and the guard even walked towards them.
"General, Jiang Yunshang, a civilian girl, needs to see the regent. I hope the general can inform her."
Jiang Yunshang stepped forward and bowed before saying his intention.
The guard looked at her first just like Lin Miaomiao, and when she was about to refuse, Jiang Yunshang took out a jade pendant and handed it to the guard.
"General, please take this and tell the prince that I have news that the prince wants."
Jiang Yunshang knew that if he wanted to see Feng Yi, it would be useless to show off his skills. The last thing he cared about was the pitiful and fragile beauty.
After all, there are many women like this in official families.
"Are you Jiang Yunshang, Lu's wife? Wait a moment." The guard took a look at the jade pendant and confirmed Jiang Yunshang's identity. When he saw her nodding, he did not dare to neglect, turned around and quickly went to report.
"Jiang Yunshang? Are you the eldest lady of the Jiang family?"
At this time, Lin Miaomiao, who was kneeling on the ground, thought of something. She immediately stood up from the ground and got close to Jiang Yunshang.
"Yes! Miss Lin, long time no see. We are polite here." Jiang Yunshang smiled slightly and bowed to Lin Miaomiao.
Seeing this, Lin Miaomiao quickly returned the favor.
Then he said: "I wonder if Miss Jiang's jade pendant belongs to the regent?"
Jiang Yunshang couldn't answer this question, so she smiled slightly and said, "Miss Lin, your question is inappropriate. The things in my hand are naturally mine."
"Sorry, I was rude." Lin Miaomiao also realized that she had asked too many questions.
"Miss Jiang, oh, no, it's time to call you Mrs. Lu now."
Lin Miaomiao thought for a moment, then suddenly turned around and said this to her.
Before Jiang Yunshang could say anything, he pulled her aside and asked in a low voice: "I wonder if Mrs. Lu can bring me into the palace?"
"This..." Jiang Yunshang smiled slightly and frowned slightly and said: "I don't know if the prince can meet me yet, so how can I dare to promise Miss Lin?"
"I mean if it's a while..." Lin Miaomiao was about to say, if Feng Yi receives her later and asks her to help think of a way, the guard will already be out.
Along with that guard came Feng Yi's personal guard, Ye Yue.
"Miss Jiang, Your Majesty invites you!" Yeyue glanced at Jiang Yunshang and said.
The previous guard had a jade pendant in his hand, but he hurried over and politely returned it to Jiang Yunshang with both hands, and then quickly stepped aside.
"Mrs. Lu..." Lin Miaomiao saw that Jiang Yunshang had indeed been received, and immediately ran over and grabbed her hand.
But just when she was about to speak excitedly, Yeyue interrupted her.
"Miss Jiang, Your Majesty's time is valuable. If you want to see me, please hurry up and don't waste your time by getting entangled with outsiders."
Ye Yue Leng stood aside, not looking directly at Lin Miaomiao, so she urged Jiang Yunshang.
Jiang Yunshang naturally knew Lin Miaomiao's purpose, but she was busy with her own affairs now and had no time to care about other people's troubles.
