(1st update)

Nalanjing looked at the thoughts flying on her face and said calmly: "I know your intentions are not pure, and I never like to be secretive when doing things."

He simply allowed Fang Xuelin to be overjoyed, but then gave her a slap in the face.

Although this slap in the face was just the beginning, she was not panicking now.

Fang Xuelin took a deep breath and said, "This matter has nothing to do with aunt."

"Oh." Nalanjing's face didn't change at all, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not. In short, it didn't look like a change that a normal person should have.

Fang Xuelin was uncertain for a moment.

Nalan Jing had no feelings for Fang Wenjing, otherwise he would not have faked Fang Wenjing's death in front of so many people in the Liu family.

However, it was empty talk. No one knew where Fang Wenjing had gone, so naturally they would not completely believe Nalanjing's words.

Fang Xuelin continued: "Actually, my behavior today was not my intention..."

"What is your original intention?" Nalanjing asked.

Fang Xuelin fell silent. This was not her intention, but she did so voluntarily.

Nalanjing tugged on the bracelet lightly, making a sound of iron chains colliding, and said in a casual tone: "When I knew that Fang Wenjing was not dead, I investigated the Fang family and found out some interesting stories about Miss Fang."

Fang Xuelin looked at Nalanjing blankly, what news does she have about her marriage?

Although she is the eldest lady of the Fang family, she is the most insignificant person in the Fang family. She usually lives in seclusion. If it were not for the purpose of scheming against Rong Xuan and his wife, she would not come to the Liu family's birthday banquet today.

Hearing Nalan Jing's words at this time, suspicion flashed in his eyes. After making sure that he had no clues, he said calmly: "Cousin, you have a lot of rumors. I heard that you were carried into the Rong family."

On one side, the government was liquidating and confiscating the house, and on the other side, the half-dead bride was brought into the house. This became the talk of many people in Beijing. Even Fang Xuelin, a reclusive person, heard about it.

Nalan Jing, however, looked unaffected and said with a smile: "My rumors are not worth mentioning, but aren't you curious, how did I guess that Fang Wenjing was at the Liu family?"

The deceased Mrs. Li is in the Liu family. This cannot be known by random guessing.

Fang Xuelin took a deep breath and stared at Nalanjing closely.

A faint laugh came from Nalan, and he got back to the point and said: "I have found out some interesting stories about Miss Fang. Miss Fang is seventeen years old, but not yet married. I heard that a few years ago, Miss Fang had an affair with the eldest grandson of the Liu family.

There were some interactions, but the Fang family did not agree, so the matter was dropped."

Fang Xuelin looked at her calmly: "Because of this, do you suspect that your aunt is in the Liu family?"

Nalanjing looked at the shallow sarcasm in her eyes and suddenly approached: "Is it the Fang family that doesn't agree with your marriage to the Liu family, or is it that the Liu family doesn't agree with your marriage to the Fang family?"

Fang Xuelin's expression changed. Because of her approach, she hummed: "What's the difference? It's just an old thing."

"Haha, the eldest grandson of the Liu family has already grown up and already has a wife. If you marry, you will be a concubine. It is understandable that the Fang family does not agree with your marriage." Nalan Jing said slowly.

Fang Xuelin looked calm and pushed her away.

Nalanjing's hand wearing a bracelet pinched her pointed chin without exerting too much force. He exhaled like a blue breath and came closer: "But I heard that you go out of the city once a month to worship the Buddha at Jing'an Temple outside the city.

No one from the Fang family stopped you, don’t you think this is very strange?"

Fang Xuelin goes out of the city to worship Buddha every month. The entire Fang family knows that this has been the case for many years.

Fang Xuelin didn't know what kind of brain Nalanjing had, and he could even make random guesses about this.

She said displeased for a moment: "My cousin has something in her heart and thinks everything is suspicious."

Nalanjing stared at her with a smile: "Are you really worshiping Buddha when you go to Jing'an Temple every month?"

Fang Xuelin was not panicked and asked the culprit: "Cousin, haven't you checked everything?"

Nalanjing did check that Fang Xuelin was indeed worshiping Buddha at Jing'an Temple, but...

Nalan Jing said leisurely: "Jing'an Temple is a mixed bag, and there is a pilgrim who happens to be just like you. He comes once or twice a month."

Fang Xuelin would never have thought that Nalanjing had even investigated Jing'an Temple.

"That person..." Nalanjing leaned closer and said in a cryptic tone, "It must be Fang Wenjing."

Every time she mentioned Fang Wenjing, it was like talking about a stranger, but that was her biological mother.

Fang Xuelin never thought that someone would be targeting her. She followed the clues to Jing'an Temple and found out Fang Wenjing. Through her past entanglements with the Liu family, she guessed that Fang Wenjing was in the Liu family.

This information has nothing to do with it, but this woman pieced together a truth based on these clues.

Fang Xuelin didn't know whether to say Nalanjing was lucky or terrible.

Fang Xuelin didn't say anything, and Nalanjing didn't rush to ask questions. She admired her pretending to be calm, but the panic that flashed through her eyes couldn't escape her eyes.

"You want to marry into the Liu family, but the Liu family doesn't agree. As for why they don't agree, it's of course because Fang Wenjing is in the Liu family, and what reason does the Fang family have to disagree? Just because you married as a concubine? But the strength of the Liu family,

A concubine is much better than an ordinary young master from an aristocratic family married to your sisters. After all, the Fang family is just a ninth-rate aristocratic family in Shangjing, how can it be compared with the Liu family, a top aristocratic family?"

"This is why after your marriage to the Liu family was cancelled, the Fang family was not in a hurry to get you married. They allowed you to stay in the boudoir until you were seventeen years old, and you were able to leave the house and the city freely every month."

Nalanjing's fingers traced her soft skin, and his breath was slightly cold: "Cousin, am I right?"

The soles of Fang Xuelin's feet were chilling, and a bone-chilling chill spread all over her body. Mrs. Liu had a needle hidden in her cotton, but it was nothing more than that.

But this woman was so smart that she had nowhere to hide her state of mind. In front of her, she seemed to be naked.

Fang Xuelin didn't dare to speak out because she was afraid that if she spoke, more would be exposed.

Nalanjing's hand holding her chin was slightly loosened, and he lightly crossed it with a bright smile: "Let me guess why you got involved today. I guess you want to capture Rong Xuan, make contributions, and let Liu Jiacheng take over.

Well, I will accept you into the house."

The hand that was on Fang Xuelin's chin was raised slightly, and he looked straight into her eyes: "Without Fang Wenjing, how could you get involved? You even said that you have nothing to do with her. Do you think that everyone in the world is the Li family?

Are they all like the Li family, letting you fool them?"

It sounds like she is not a member of the Li family.

Fang Xuelin's face had lost its initial calmness, and she stared at her in panic. This woman was a madman, a devil, and the most terrifying woman she had ever seen.

"Do you think you can get out of the imperial prison soon?" Nalan Jing's eyes were sarcastic, slightly mocking.
