The servant woman lowered her voice and replied truthfully: "Yes, the grandson and his son also said that they would wait for her to find out the truth..."
There was restlessness and uneasiness between Chang's brows.
Today's trial was so unsatisfactory that it failed to convict Chang Sui'an, and a witness named Crown Prince Rong appeared halfway... Although he was unable to testify due to illness.
She didn't have a clairvoyance, so she couldn't predict everything in advance. She just took it one step at a time, so whenever something happened that was beyond her control, she would be particularly uneasy.
At this time, Chang Suining's words of "the clues have been found" are even more like a long needle piercing the important point.
The servant girl thought for a while and said: "It may not be that she is bluffing and talking nonsense in front of others to confuse people..."
"No..." Mr. Chang shook his head: "Someone just came here to send a message. Someone secretly went to Furong Garden to inquire in detail about the racecourse attendant who fell into the water and died... Who do you think was responsible for this?"
"Is that Chang Sui Ning?" The servant woman was slightly shocked. How could that little girl be so sharp?
Chang: "She naturally doesn't have such means herself. It's obviously Si Gongtai who is helping her."
The servant woman calmed down for a moment: "Madam, don't worry, the servants at the racecourse have done a fairly clean job, they shouldn't be able to find anything..."
"But if they can trace the racecourse attendant, they can certainly trace it elsewhere." Mrs. Chang frowned and said, "There are so many people secretly helping her... maybe she has really found something."
She was doing something without any preparation in advance, and this method of doing things where she could only check for leaks while doing it made her extremely suspicious when faced with any disturbance.
Especially since she was the only one planning this matter secretly. Neither Duke Ying nor the Saint could help her. Instead, she was someone she needed to be careful about and conceal...
All these things aggravated Chang's tension and anxiety.
"I have told you before, that little thing from the Chang family is not a fuel-efficient lamp!" She suddenly brushed down a jade vase with a thin-leaf cold orchid in her hand, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
…
"Ning Ning, is this too risky?"
Qiao Yubai sent Chang Suining back to the Chang Mansion. The two came to the outer study room where Chang Suining spent most of his time. Only when no one else was around him did Qiao Yubai ask worriedly.
"What does Brother Yubai mean?" Chang Suining walked to the desk.
"You bluntly said that you found clues. Although it may lead the other party to take action, but what if..." Qiao Yubai lowered his voice lower and frowned out of worry: "What if the other party kills you because of this?
?”
"It's just right. I'm willing to wait for him to kill me." Chang Suining had already sat down behind the desk. "If the other party is really such an impulsive person and gets messed up so easily, then it will be easy to solve this matter."
I'm just afraid that the other person is not such an impulsive and blind person.
…
The smooth white jade bottle shattered into pieces, and the sharp crack seemed to be shining with cold light.
For a moment, the maid didn't care to call someone in to clean up: "Mrs., could it be that..."
After a long while, Chang finally sneered from his teeth: "I would like to...but I can't do it now."
If she went to kill Chang Sui Ning at this time, if she accidentally missed it, it would be like inadvertently sending the evidence to the opponent's hands.
Even if the matter is accomplished and Chang Sui Ning is killed, the matter may not end there. Si Gongtai Yu Zeng, Imperial Academy Qiao Yang, and other members of the Chang family cannot give up helping Chang Sui Ning escape because of this.
Thoughts of sin.
And in this way, it is like telling everyone that there must be grievances in Chang Sui'an's case, which is destined to only lead to more troubles.
She would only do such a stupid thing when she is stupid and crazy!
Chang calmed herself down and tried to analyze the situation rationally.
There are only two "changes" that can be seen with her eyes now. She might as well keep an eye on these two first.
"People are paying close attention to the news in Prince Rong's palace... As soon as you hear the news that Prince Rong has recovered from his illness, tell me immediately."
"yes."
"Have someone go to Feng's house and ask them to get ready. In three days, a wedding sedan will come to pick you up."
The servant hesitated for a moment, but she also understood the lady's thoughts. Such matters should be done sooner rather than later. Changes would occur every day, so it would be safest to bring the person in as early as possible.
"Yes, my maid will make arrangements now."
After the servant girl exited, a female servant came in and quickly cleaned up the mess on the floor.
…
"But this way, your situation is really dangerous." Qiao Yubai said seriously: "Ning Ning, I will stay with you. If you need to do anything, just let me know and I will take care of it."
Now that Ning Ning is the only one in the Chang family, he is really worried. His parents are also very worried. My mother and father have agreed that she will come over tonight, even if it is just to guard Ning Ning, and to take care of Ning Ning as much as she can.
Food and daily life are also good.
Chang Suining had heard Qiao Yubai talk about this on the way back, and she said at this time: "It's enough if Sanniang is here. Brother Yubai came to Japan to skip classes today, so he must not delay his studies any more."
He added: "Brother, don't worry, there is no shortage of available people in the Chang family. I will not put myself in danger."
"But……"
Qiao Yubai wanted to say more, but Chang Suining said to him: "In my opinion, brother Yubai, who is the most suspicious person here?"
Since she sat down, she has been paying attention to the list in front of her.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yubai walked over seriously.
The list spread out, occupying half of the desk, and was filled with densely packed names, but most of the names had been crossed out, presumably because Ning Ning had excluded them...
And among the remaining names, there are several places circled in ink, which must be the subject of major suspicion.
Qiao Yubai's eyes naturally fell on those eye-catching places.
When he saw the surname at the front, the young man's heart sank.
"Ning Ning, if it is true..." After a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Chang Sui Ning: "Then how should we deal with it?"
"No matter who it is, I can't let my brother take the blame for him." Chang Suining looked at the word "Ming Family" written on it and said: "It is only natural to kill people to pay for their lives."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this moment, Qiao Yubai suddenly thought of the Dragon Boat Festival shooting competition in the Imperial College.
At that time, he was injured by Chang Miao and suffered unfair treatment. It was Ning Ning who regained the word justice for him and all the students who participated in the shooting in a way that he could not have imagined.
But now, what Sui'an is experiencing is an even greater injustice.
What he faces may be an enemy that is more difficult to defeat.
Although the two things were completely incomparable, he could already foresee Ning Ning's determination - and it was Ning Ning's determination that was more difficult to shake than the enemy standing at the top.
For a moment, Qiao Yubai also nodded firmly: "Yes, it should be so."
Soon, Chang Suining asked someone to invite Steward Bai to come over.
"Let someone go to the warehouse to get the best supplements and send them to Prince Rong's Mansion." Chang Suining explained: "You'd better go there in person to show our Chang family's attention and concern."
Bai Guanshi should go down.
Qiao Yubai was a little worried. After thinking about it, he finally reminded him: "Ning Ning, wouldn't it be inappropriate to do this?"
Logically speaking, it is appropriate to avoid suspicion with witnesses at this time.
"Brother Yubai's thoughts are reasonable. It is not appropriate to discuss whether it is appropriate or not." Chang Sui Ning said: "But now that my father is not in the capital, I am worried about my brother's safety and I have no master, so I choose to do it."
It’s reasonable for a witness to show kindness, right?”
Qiao Yubai was not a stupid person. After hearing this sentence, he understood what Chang Suining was thinking.
At this juncture, the closer she got to Prince Rong, the more obvious her intentions became, and the more people behind her became uneasy.
This move has the same purpose as saying to the Changsun family in public that "there is someone else who murdered him, and clues have been found."
As for whether someone will question Prince Rong's perjury "for her" in the future - Chang Suining has no intention of considering this possibility at the moment.
She only said: "Not only do we have to deliver him, we also have to deliver him every day until Prince Rong recovers from his illness and can go out."
She would send him away for two days until he "woke up", and then she would come to "visit" him in person.
It's just different from giving gifts. If she wants to visit, she needs to stay out of sight.
Chang Suining looked at the list in front of him and quietly thought about his next plan.
…
As it was getting late, guests from the Feng family came to the door.
The person who came was Chang's confidant servant girl, and Xie came to see her in person.
"My wife has agreed to understand the Lord's proposal and has set an auspicious date three days later. I don't know what the Lord's wishes are."
Although the maid asked, there was no hint of inquiry in her tone, she was just informing.
Xie didn't mind at the moment. Since it was a transaction, he had to be conscious of doing transactions with others.
Although it didn't sound good to say that she was happy, she couldn't refute it. If she wanted Min'er to get married as soon as possible, she had to have a name so as not to arouse suspicion from outsiders.
So Xie Shi nodded with a smile.
Not long after, the servant girl of the Ming family left.
Xie asked someone to call her son and daughter-in-law over, and also explained the matter in an informing tone.
"Three days from now?"
"For fun... a side room?!"
"How does this work!"
Feng's father reacted greatly: "How can Min'er be a side wife that makes people happy...Why did mother agree to the Ming family's request!"
After Jie's reputation was disgraced and he was demoted to the rank of county prince, he became increasingly dissatisfied with his mother.
Feng's mother on the side was also shocked, but unlike her husband, her fear and obedience to her mother-in-law had been engraved in her bones over the years, and she did not dare to express her dissatisfaction outright at the moment.
Faced with her son's question, Xie Shi just said quietly: "What kind of family can Min'er be suitable for now? How can the head wife of an ordinary family be as good as the concubine of the Ming family? And the Ming Crown Prince does not have a main wife at the moment, so Min
When your son gets married, he will be no different from his real wife."
When she saw her son and wanted to talk more, she said from the front: "Don't hold on to the happy talk. You must know that if there is no expert who can calculate the horoscopes, such good things will not happen to Min'er easily."
Father Feng's expression changed.
"Being an in-law with the Ming family is the same as being married to a saint. You don't even understand this, right?" Xie sneered: "Stop that useless self-esteem and look at something practical and long-term."
Seeing that her husband seemed to be persuaded, Feng's mother cursed a "dog man" in her heart, and finally couldn't help but say: "But Min'er..."
Xie Shi glanced at her daughter-in-law and interrupted her words with a cold face: "Min'er is willing."
What?
Mother Feng couldn't believe it.
She is very clear about her daughter's character. There is nothing outstanding about her, but she can't help but want to marry high - this is the result of her mother-in-law's teachings.
How could a daughter with such a high-minded wife be willing to be a concubine to entertain others?
Feng's mother quickly found her daughter and wanted to ask her clearly.
When she arrived, Feng Min was happily having her body measured to prepare her wedding dress.
Feng’s mother: “…”
There seems to be nothing left to ask.
After finally waiting for everyone to leave, Feng's mother thought about it and only asked: "... Min'er, do you know that the Ming Crown Prince is a romantic person?"
"Of course my daughter knows." Feng Min asked back: "But does Aniang think that I am marrying him?"
What she wanted to marry was just the heir apparent of the Ming family.
Seeing that her mother wanted to talk more, Feng Min said impatiently: "Besides, the marriage has been decided and there is no possibility of going back on it. Instead of talking about these useless things, mother might as well plan more for her daughter so that she can go out in a more beautiful manner."
She didn't want to hear it anymore. Her mother didn't know how much suffering she had endured, let alone that she had no other choice.
Now she only hopes that her grandmother's words are true, that after she marries into the Ming family, she can be treated well and live a life that she wishes for.
An incident two days later made Feng Min feel a little more at ease.
That night, when her father came back from the Ministry of Industry, his face was full of joy.
His superior revealed to him the news that he would be promoted to the Minister of Farming in the Ministry of Industry. He also told him that the Ming family had arranged the arrangements for him, and patted him on the shoulder and said that he had a good daughter. Such a good blessing.
It's really enviable, and I want him to take care of me more in the future.
After being photographed with such a flattery, Feng's father felt a little elated, completely forgetting his dissatisfaction with Hing Xizhi's theory.
Feng Min was overjoyed after hearing this and looked at her grandmother subconsciously.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xie smiled and nodded.
Feng Min felt even more grateful to her grandmother - it must be because her grandmother's conversation with Mrs. Ying Guogong went very smoothly that day, and Duke Ying's mansion really didn't mean to look down on her!
Although she is a concubine, she is more honorably married than 99% of the women in the capital. No one dares to look down on her!
With this intention in mind, Feng Min did not intend to hide the matter, and even invited many ladies from the capital to come to add boxes to her the day before she went out. The box-adding banquet was quite lively.
She only gets married once, even if she is a concubine, she still wants to live in glory!
…
Early that morning, Yao Xia, Wei Miaoqing and other girls made an appointment to come together to see Chang Sui Ning.
"You didn't have to come." Chang Suining said bluntly: "It's not a good thing to get too close to me at this juncture."
She would not question their friendship just because of this brief "estrangement".
These girls are all girls from official families in the capital. Most of their fathers and grandfathers were officials in the court. With this restriction, they are bound to not be able to do whatever they want.
The world is making things difficult for them, and she can no longer make things difficult for them in the name of friendship.
"What are you afraid of? Will the eldest grandson's family still eat me?" This girl with a arrogant attitude is a girl from the Wei family whose family has a big business and a big garden, and her elder brother is particularly impressive.
"With my eldest uncle here, how can it be my turn to avoid suspicion?" The girl who said, "If the sky falls, my eldest uncle will hold it up" and "People's words are to be feared, let the eldest uncle be afraid of them" is the girl from the Yao family.
There are also many people who have an optimistic attitude, a particularly far-sighted vision, and a bit of chivalry in them——
"Anyway, the husband of the family was wrongly accused, and the truth will be revealed sooner or later!"
"That's right, that's right..."
"Sister Chang, don't be afraid."
A group of girls surrounded Chang Sui Ning and comforted her.
Chang Suining looked at those cute young faces.
Even though they may be separated soon - she will remember them well.
The young girls gathered around, and at first they conscientiously comforted Chang Suining, but later on, they turned around while chatting.
But this turn happened to be Chang Sui Ning Xin, giving her a new clue.
