With a deep sigh in his heart, Uncle Zhou felt that there was probably no way around this matter, but the prince's order still had to be obeyed, so he sent someone to the Jingxin Hall and released Xie Yurui.
Prince Yi's Mansion is also big when it is said to be big, and small when it is said to be small.
The news that Xie Yurui was released from house arrest soon reached Xiao Lingyue's ears.
Xiao Lingyue just smiled at this and didn't bother to say a word.
She wasn't surprised at all.
I didn’t think Zhan Beihan could lock people up for how long. He was released after only a few days of confinement. Later, in the Jingxin Hall, it was good to be able to lock people up for two days.
After all, she is the concubine who has been doted on for many years. How can she be kept locked up all the time? Sooner or later she will come out.
She deliberately controlled her emotions. She didn't think too much, didn't ask too many questions, and didn't care. She only focused on her two children.
The day and night passed quickly and calmly.
Xie Yurui, who was released, was unexpectedly honest and huddled in her yard, neither showing up nor causing trouble for Xiao Lingyue.
Xiao Lingyue was even more happy and relaxed. She hid in the guest house and didn't go anywhere. She found some rare peace.
pity.
This kind of calm only lasted for one day.
In the afternoon of the next day.
Uninvited guests came to the door and asked to see her by name.
When the maid hurried over to announce the news, Xiao Lingyue was sitting in the yard drinking tea and sunbathing. After hearing this, she put down her tea cup and said, "A person from the palace? Did you name me and say you want to see me?"
"Yes, I'm already waiting in the front hall now. Would you like to see the county lord?" the maid asked.
"Which palace is it from?" Xiao Lingyue asked.
"Jinhua Palace." The maid explained, "It is the palace of Imperial Concubine Shu. I believe that Imperial Concubine Shu has some orders, and the county master had better meet her."
Xiao Lingyue narrowed her eyes slightly.
She did not have a harmonious relationship with Concubine Shu.
We had a relationship with each other before, but later, because of the incident with the thirteenth princess, there were even more conflicts.
What could she possibly want to see her for?
"No." Xiao Lingyue was too lazy to think too much and refused directly, "Just say that I am not free. If Concubine Shu has any instructions, you can convey them to me."
The maid was startled: "County Lord, isn't this bad?"
Xiao Lingyue asked, "Is it the maid or the eunuch who came to deliver the message?"
The maid said: "She is a palace maid, leading a few young eunuchs."
Xiao Lingyue asked again: "Did you tell me what it was?"
The maid shook her head: "No, I just wanted to see the county lord."
Xiao Lingyue sneered: "It's not a special year or a holiday, and I came to your door unsolicited and refused to explain why I came. Why should I see you? Just answer what I say."
The maid had no choice but to bow her head and retreat.
But not long after, the maid hurriedly came back: "County Master, I have returned as you said, but the nanny of Jinhua Palace insists on seeing you, and she also said that if you refuse again, you will not give Jinhua Palace face. She
I will return to the palace and report the truth to Concubine Shu!"
This is obviously a hidden threat.
No matter how high Xiao Lingyue's title as county lord is, she will never be able to outshine a concubine in the palace, let alone a concubine who has an adult prince under her knees.
Xiao Lingyue narrowed her eyes and immediately became convinced that this was clearly a bad person.
I don't know what kind of trick I'm going to play again.
She was really impatient to deal with it, so she asked, "Where is King Yi? Didn't he always get along with Jinhua Palace? People from Jinhua Palace came to visit him, but he didn't say anything?"
The maid said: "The prince went to the military camp early this morning and is not in the mansion now. Housekeeper Zhou also went out to do business this morning. Now only the concubine and the second housekeeper are in the mansion, and they are all waiting for guests in the front hall."
Xiao Lingyue's thoughts were racing in her mind and she stood up: "In that case, let's go and have a look." This chapter has been completed!
