Chapter 698 Jia Heng: Sister-in-law Zhu has not tolerated anyone in these years.
Easy...
Jia Heng drafted and sorted out the salt company's regulations in the study until dusk, calling Qingwen to prepare hot water, take a bath, wash away the vanilla smell of picked double lotus flowers, and left the wing.
At that time, I saw the sun setting in the west and the sky was filled with sunset glow.
The golden-red glow shrouds the entire courtyard. In the distance, the cornices, carved beams and painted buildings, and the winding ridge of the roof are like a dragon waiting quietly for the night.
Jia Heng's eyes were lost in thought, and he couldn't help but think of Zhen Xue, who had a gentle and gentle temperament.
"Sir, Sister-in-law Zhu just sent her maid Suyun over and asked you when she will be here?" Qingwen came slowly and looked up at the young man in blue and brocade clothes, standing under the eaves of the corridor, looking at the sunset.
Young Master Cai and the Princess of Beijing were staying in the study room just now, not knowing what to do. Anyway, the clothes they changed out of after taking a bath had a very cloying fragrance.
Because Sister Feng said earlier that Li Wan wanted to ask Jia Heng to be his host alone because of his son Jia Lan's studies.
Jia Heng looked back at Qingwen and whispered, "I'll be there right away."
While they were talking, they came to Baoxia with Qingwen, and saw Li Wan's maid Suyun, a girl with emerald hair and an anxious look on her face, who had obviously been waiting for a while.
"Uncle, grandma has prepared wine and food, and she is just waiting for the uncle to come over." Su Yun looked happy when she saw Jia Heng.
"Let's go." Jia Heng nodded without saying much.
At this moment, the courtyard where Li Wan is located is spacious and elegant. Under the flower wall on the southwest side, there are lush branches and leaves of wisteria and Xue Li, peonies, roses, lilies and other flowers. The remaining red color has faded, and the setting sun is shining in the evening.
The shadows of butterflies danced back and forth on the green eaves and white mud walls.
In the wing room, Li Wan sat beside a round wooden table with various dishes on it. He raised his head from time to time and looked out the window. The dusk in the sky was about to set, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet.
The young Hua Xin woman who had been widowed for many years put on a horse-faced skirt embroidered with plum blossoms on a blue background. Her lush green silk hair was tied into a bun with a jade hairpin. She had a beautiful, Shuning face, cheeks and lips.
It's like applying a light layer of rouge and gouache, but it's not noticeable.
Jia Lan was not here today, but Li Wan held a separate banquet to invite Jia Heng.
Suddenly, the cool summer breeze suddenly blew, slowly blowing the curtains on one side of the window. In the animal-patterned smoke cage in the house, a few wisps of green smoke lit by spices mixed with ice yarn curled up. Loneliness and loneliness seemed to follow the dusk.
The clothes hung down, the heat faded away, the fragrance lingered... like a tide, it enveloped the young woman's body and mind.
At this time, an embroidered shoe crossed the threshold and Biyue entered the room. He woke Li Wan out of his daze and said, "Grandma, Uncle Heng is here."
Hearing this, Li Wan's thoughts turned around and he quickly stood up. However, before he could get around the screen, his beautiful eyes under his beautiful eyebrows moved, and he saw a young man wearing a straight green shirt and a blue scarf.
Step in.
Jia Heng entered the side room and raised his eyes to look at Li Wan, who was standing dignifiedly.
This Huaxin young woman, who was born into a famous family in Jinling, is beautiful and upright. She wears a blue dress with simple and elegant decoration, without any flash of jewels or flashy flowers.
Upon closer inspection, there is a hint of melancholy that is hard to describe and difficult to capture between the beautiful brows and eyes.
Jia Heng's voice was calm and somewhat natural, and he said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, how are you always?"
After all, if it weren't for Jia Lan, he wouldn't really want to accept Li Wan's invitation.
If according to the original work, Li Wan lived in Daoxiang Village where a tree of apricot trees burst into flames. When he was drunk, he reached out and touched the key on Ping'er's waist... It is conceivable that this kind of long-term widowhood has changed the temperament of the young woman.
Quite depressing.
"Brother Heng, are you here?" Seeing the tall and handsome young man, who seemed to be standing against the rays of the sun, Li Wan's elegant face showed a look of joy and called out.
Jia Heng nodded and said warmly: "Sister-in-law Zhu kindly invites you. I'm sorry that I can't make the appointment."
Hearing this, Li Wan invited Jia Heng to sit down. The maid served him tea, and the aroma of the tea cup dispersed with the steaming heat.
Li Wan organized his words and said softly: "Brother Heng, Brother Lan needs to pay more attention to his studies."
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said softly: "Lange'er is the academic seed of the clan. Even if there is no Sister Zhu to support me, I will take good care of him."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Wan's side and said with a smile: "Why, Brother Lan is not here today?"
Li Wan said softly: "There are still classes in school today, so I didn't come back."
Jia Heng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Then, under the guidance of Li Wan, he sat down at the dining table. At this time, the maid prepared a basin of water and helped Jia Heng wash his hands.
Amidst the sound of "crash", Li Wan looked at the young man in Yuanding Yuezhi, pursed his glossy lips, and said softly: "Brother Lang, I have to ask Brother Heng to help me with my studies."
Have an idea."
Jia Heng took the towel, wiped his hands gently, looked at Li Wan, and said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, sister-in-law Feng also told me before, and also mentioned it to my sister-in-law before, Brother Lang is still young, sister-in-law can't act too hastily.
, it’s not too late to have a solid foundation and accumulate a lot of resources.”
Hearing this, Li Wan's elegant face fell silent for a moment, and asked, "I think Brother Neng Lan will be better if he learns it earlier."
Jia Heng said softly: "Even if you enter school early and become a scholar, the test of recruiting people and becoming a scholar is very difficult. If there are any setbacks, it will inevitably affect your children and my sister-in-law.
This is because pulling seedlings encourages growth.”
In order to protect and hone prodigies, some even deliberately dismissed them in the provincial examination, such as Zhang Baigui.
Seeing Li Wan frowning in thought, his beautiful face reflected clearly in the light of the lamp, Jia Heng continued: "For the sake of fame and glory, even if he does not take the imperial examination to become an official, I can ensure that he has a good background in the future.
"
"Brother Heng, Brother Lan was born with a weak temperament and is not suitable to join the army and practice martial arts in front of the two armies. I still hope that he can become an official through his career." Li Wan said softly.
Although those knights are dignified and honorable, they are all risking their lives, and the bowl of rich rice is not delicious.
Jia Heng said softly: "I will definitely not let him join the army and practice martial arts. He will still be a civil servant. Of course, I don't want to worry. I know that Sister Zhu has taught him a lot at home before."
Li Wan is basically a chicken maniac.
Li Wan's face paused slightly, and her slender hands gently folded the handkerchief in her sleeve. She seemed a little embarrassed and said, "But now I can't teach you anymore. Brother Heng, would you like to hire another good teacher?"
Jia Heng said: "Then I will go back and tell the lecturer in the school to choose a teacher with good moral knowledge and teach Langeer well."
"Brother Heng, that's what I meant." Seeing Jia Heng readily agreeing, Li Wan invited with a bit of joy in his eyes: "Brother Heng, just talk, let's eat first."
Jia Heng nodded, sat down, and picked up his chopsticks.
Li Wan picked up the wine pot, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Jia Heng, then raised the wine cup, looked up at the young man, and said: "Brother Heng, Brother Lang has a lot to do with his studies.
Excuse me, I'll give you a toast."
"Sister-in-law Zhu is so polite." Jia Heng picked up the wine cup, clinked a glass with Li Wan, drank the wine, and asked: "Sister-in-law Zhu's father is now in Jinling?"
"Father is currently recuperating in Jinling." Li Wan paused slightly and pursed her pink lips. She didn't know whether it was because of the heat or the alcohol, but her gentle and beautiful cheeks were a little red.
Jia Heng put down the wine cup and asked, "Does Sister-in-law Zhu have any other brothers and sisters?"
You can't let the meal be a quiet one, so he can only say more.
"It turns out that I have an elder brother who was born in Juren and is in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs in Nan Province." Li Wan said softly.
Jia Heng nodded and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhu hasn't been to Jinling Guining for a few years, right?"
Li Wan looked at the young man with a clear face across from him and whispered: "Since my late husband passed away, I have never left the capital. Firstly, the journey is long and the road is not smooth. Secondly, Lan'er is still young and cannot go to Jinling. My mother-in-law
Even the old lady is worried."
At the end of his words, his voice was low and his expression was gloomy.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment. He originally asked casually, but he didn't want to touch Li Wan's sadness. It seemed that he did so intentionally and took advantage of the situation.
"When Brother Lang is older, sister-in-law can take Brother Lang back to have a look." Jia Heng said in a low voice.
Li Wan seemed to be aroused by something sad, so he picked up the jug again, poured himself a glass, and took a sip with a gloomy expression. The wine went into his throat, his brows furrowed, and his heart felt bitter.
Jia Heng said: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to suffer yourself. You should always think broadly about everything."
"Brother Lan has grown so big in a flash. If he succeeds in school and makes progress in his career, I will be worthy of his father." Li Wan looked at the young man opposite and suddenly sighed.
, and then went to carry the wine pot again, trying to pour wine for Jia Heng.
Jia Heng took the wine bottle, looked at the young woman Hua Xin, who had reddish cheeks and beautiful eyes under her beautiful eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law Zhu, you can't drink dry like this. It's easy to hurt your body. Eat some."
It’s the food.”
Li Wan raised his sparkling beautiful eyes, looked at the young man, and whispered: "I don't usually drink much, so it doesn't matter if I have a few drinks like this with Brother Heng today. Not many people come to my place.
.”
Jia Heng said softly: "It has not been easy for Sister Zhu to be alone these past few years."
As he said this, his expression froze, and he suddenly felt that these words were really inappropriate. The widow seemed... unable to listen to these words.
When Li Wan heard this, his jade face paused slightly, as if struck by thunder, his heart trembled, he stared intently, and whispered: "Brother Heng..."
These years have really not been easy, but who knew how difficult it was for her?
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and could only follow the words he just said and comforted: "The world is unpredictable, sister-in-law still has to think broadly. Fortunately, Lang Ge'er is well-behaved and smart, and his future is unlimited. Sister-in-law can usually still be with Sister-in-law Feng in the house.
Please, please move around more, and don't stay in the house all the time. If you are bored for a long time, you will easily become depressed."
Li Wan listened to the young man's slightly "trivial" instructions, and a warm current surged in his heart, his eyes were dazed, and his nose was slightly sour.
Suppressing the sour emotions in his heart, his beautiful face showed a slight smile: "Lang Ge'er is more sensible. The day before yesterday, Brother Heng gave Lang Ge'er a set of pens, inks, paper and inkstones. When he came back, he told me that he
Uncle Heng thinks highly of him, and I will study hard in the future to repay Uncle Heng."
Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's Brother Lang who is also motivated. I value him more, not because of any reward. Our clan started out as a martial artist. It's not easy to produce a scholar, but we must protect him well."
Li Wan listened, his heart moved slightly, and he wanted to ask, now Jia Cong is also a scholar... But after thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate, and swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
Looking at the young man who was as gentle as jade and whose eyebrows were not as cold as before, he was a little distracted by the smile, and said softly: "Brother Heng, it's not easy for you to get to this point. Back in Liutiao Alley...Brother Heng was like that at that time.
Extraordinary."
I still remember the day I entered the young man’s room and saw that couplet. Who would have thought that we would be here today?
Jia Heng said: "The children of the poor have already become the masters."
As he said this, he picked up a piece of egg with his chopsticks and ate it.
Li Wan looked at the calm young man and said softly: "Brother Heng, are you planning to go to Yangzhou in a few days?"
"Well, I might have to go to Jinling. If Sister-in-law Zhu has letters or things to send, I can take them there." Jia Heng put down his chopsticks and chuckled.
Li Wan felt a little uncomfortable at the warm and smiling gaze. He lowered his eyes gently, picked up the wine cup, put his pink lips on the wine cup, took a sip, and said, "I want to write two letters, and I thought I'd trouble Brother Heng to send them to me."
past."
Jia Heng said warmly: "Then sister-in-law has finished writing it. Just send a maid to deliver it tomorrow."
Li Wan said "hmm" and sipped his drink. His beautiful eyes flashed under his beautiful eyebrows and he was speechless for a moment.
Jia Heng and Li Wan chatted for a while, ate some food and wine, and said softly: "It's getting late, Sister-in-law Zhu, why don't we start with this today? The matter of Brother Lan is settled like this, and Sister-in-law Zhu also drank
Some wine, please be more careful later."
When dining with Li Wan, you always have to be cautious. In fact, if Zhen Qing had not brought Zhen Xue in, he would not have been entangled with other people's wives before.
"Brother Heng, I'll give it to you then." Perhaps because of drinking, Li Wan Yurong's cheeks were as red as blood, and she lightly pursed her pink lips. There was a faint feeling of reluctance in her heart, but she didn't know how to keep her in love.
Jia Heng said, put down the wine cup, stood up, and prepared to leave.
As Li Wan stood up, he suddenly felt dizzy and staggered. As soon as he took a step, the young woman said "Ouch" and sat down on the chair again. Tears almost made her cry. She didn't know where she touched.
.
Jia Heng turned to look at the frowning Li Wan, frowned and asked: "Sister-in-law, are you okay? Where did you touch?"
"It's okay, I just touched my leg." Li Wan's face was as beautiful as frost, and his voice was trembling slightly.
Jia Heng came closer, looked at the beauty who frowned and endured the pain, and said warmly: "I just told Sister Zhu to be more careful, why are you so careless?"
"I was a little dizzy just now, and I couldn't stand still for a moment." Li Wan said, and immediately, he felt a sense of shame in his heart. Why did Brother Heng seem to be scolding a child? However, there were some strange ripples in his heart.
Jia Heng said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, please bear with her for a while, sit down and rest."
With that said, Xu held Li Wan's arm, asked him to sit down again, and called: "Suyun, Biyue, come and see your grandma."
Suyun and Biyue responded quickly. They ran over from the eaves and entered the hall. Seeing this scene, their faces turned pale and they exclaimed in shock: "Grandma, what's going on?"
Jia Heng said: "I touched the table leg just now. Go look for it and see if there is any medicinal wine."
Li Wan quickly waved his hand and said, "Brother Heng, don't bother me."
Suyun said: "There is no one in the house, so I just went to ask Miss Ping."
Li Wan's face changed slightly, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Heng, it's not time to make a big splash at this time. I'll just apply it with cold water later."
If Feng Yatou heard this, she might think of her.
Jia Heng looked at Li Wan and said softly: "I have it in my study. Let Suyun go get it."
That bottle of medicinal wine was given to him by Xian Ning. He thought that the stuff in the palace would be quite effective. So he looked at Su Yun and said, "Go to the study and ask Qingwen for it."
Seeing the busy young man, Li Wan was silent for a moment. With Jia Heng's support, he sat on the soft couch and stretched out his hand to gently rub his calf. However, after just rubbing it twice, he felt a sense of shame welling up in his heart.
.
Jia Heng did not sit side by side on the couch, but sat on the embroidered pier. He looked at Li Wan, whose cheeks were flushed and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He hesitated, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and handed it over.
Said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, just wipe the sweat on your face."
Li Wan was stunned for a moment. Under the kind eyes of the young man, he reached out and took the handkerchief. He didn't know if it was because he was drunk. He felt his cheeks were slightly hot. He gently wiped the sweat on his forehead and cheeks and whispered:
He found a chair and sat down, looked at Li Wan who lowered his eyes and said nothing, and said in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law Zhu, if there is anything going on with Brother Lan, you don't have to be polite. Just talk to me. There is no need to talk to me every time."
We invite hosts every time, so it’s not easy for Sister-in-law Zhu to arrange the table just now.”
Although Li Wan's monthly salary is more than that of Tanchun and others, the expenses are not small.
Hearing this, Li Wan looked at the young man across from him worriedly and asked, "Brother Heng, were you neglecting me just now?"
Jia Heng smiled and said: "It's not that I'm being negligent, I'm just thinking that Sister-in-law Zhu, the widow, is unemployed and dragging Brother Lang around. It's not easy. It doesn't have to cost too much. The pot of wine just now seems to be the best wine from outside. It's just that
I'm afraid it won't be cheap, so the whole family doesn't need to be exposed to outsiders like this."
The pot of wine just now looked like good wine, and he was obviously worried that he was being treated lightly.
When Li Wan heard this, his elegant face was slightly startled, with mixed feelings in his heart. Facing the young man's warm gaze, he lowered his eyes and wanted to rub his calf through his skirt, but felt that this action was really indecent and low-key.
The voice said: "I have taken note of Brother Heng's words."
After a while, while the two were talking, Suyun came back from outside, holding medicinal wine in his hand.
"If it's swollen, pour a drop of this medicinal wine on the palm of your hand, scrub it, and then apply it on your legs to reduce the swelling. Suyun will wait for your grandma later." Jia Heng explained, he naturally
It was impossible to give Li Wan medicinal wine.
Li Wan listened to the different soft words from the young man opposite him and said softly: "Thank you so much, Brother Heng."
Jia Heng looked at the young woman who was originally quiet and dignified. She almost turned into a dull gourd, but she didn't want to stay any longer. He said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, let's do this first. Sister-in-law Zhu will also apply medicine and rest early."
When Li Wan saw this, he stood up and said, "Then I'll see Brother Heng off."
"Sister-in-law's leg still hurts, so there's no need to send her away," Jia Heng said softly.
Li Wan could only say: "Bi Yue, send it off for me."
Bi Yue got up and escorted Jia Heng away.
Li Wan turned to stare at the bottle of medicinal wine, wringing the handkerchief in his hands, and looked around the room that had once again fallen into deathly silence. Loneliness and the pain in his legs hit his heart at the same time, and he felt a deep exhaustion coming over him, silently
After a moment, he finally sighed quietly.
…
…
Prince Chu's Mansion
As soon as Zhen Qing returned to the mansion, she ordered her grandma and maids to prepare hot water for bathing. It was summer and the weather was hot. She was sweating inside and outside and felt uncomfortable all over.
In the bathtub, the millstone entered the water and splashed. Zhen Qing crossed her arms and hugged her shoulders. She stretched out her slender hands, and the bath water with rose petals fell along her neck. She felt something strange and frowned.
, her beautiful eyes were full of evil, and she kept cursing a certain bastard secretly in her heart.
Zhen Qing didn't dare to think too much. She got up from the tub, changed into a red dress, called the maid to help with dressing, and then lay on her side on the bed, caressing her lower abdomen, regaining her strength a little, and just closed her eyes,
It seemed that the bastard's annoying words were vaguely ringing in his ears.
Suddenly, I heard the nanny outside saying softly: "Princess, the prince is back."
After hearing this, Zhen Qing stood up and looked up at King Chu who came from outside.
The King of Chu was wearing a Shu brocade round-collar robe, a green square scarf on his head, and a green ring in his hand. He sat down on the round table, looked at the beautiful lady opposite, and asked expectantly: "Princess, I went to Ningguo today.
Mansion? What did Jia Ziyu say?"
Zhen Qing looked at King Chu. She felt a little annoyed for some reason. She went to Ningguo Mansion and was teased. Now the prince immediately asked her about these situations?
But at this moment, the beauty never thought about how King Chu knew what happened to her in Ningguo Mansion?
"Jia Ziyu didn't say anything else. He just said that the prince is dedicated to state affairs. At that time, since he is serving side affairs and letting others help make suggestions, he will not object." Zhen Qing suppressed the irritability in her heart and whispered.
.
King Chu nodded and looked at Zhen Qing. He didn't know if it was because of the light, but he found that his wife's brows were a bit more charming than before, especially those sharp phoenix eyes that were full of water and moist with mist.
born.
As for the face that looked like hibiscus stamens, it was even more delicate, and the pink lips that looked like rose petals shone slightly. King Chu couldn't help but move his heart, and whispered: "Princess, it's getting late, let's go early."
Have a good sleep?"
Zhen Qing frowned and said softly: "Your Majesty, I'm not feeling well right now. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you."
In a room full of people, if their skins are touching each other, no one will notice anything strange?
Seeing Zhen Qing's brows furrowed and the sharp look in her eyes reappearing, King Chu's expression paused, and he felt that all the lingering thoughts he had just had disappeared.
In fact, there are some who don't want to be with the princess. Compared with Concubine Liu, who is a little bird and sings softly, the princess seems... to put it harshly, like a corpse.
In fact, Zhen Qing has a conservative temperament, and she holds herself to the standards of the Queen and her mother. She cannot charm her husband like those foxy girls, and she will be looked down upon by the King of Chu.
Catching a hint of lightness in her husband's eyebrows, Zhen Qing's clear phoenix eyes flashed under Liuye's slender eyebrows, and she felt a little inexplicably irritated.
After watching the King of Chu leave, he couldn't hold back the tea cup in his hand any longer and smashed it hard on the ground. There was a "click" and hot water splashed everywhere. The female officials who originally wanted to come in were frightened.
As silent as a cicada, he stood with his hands down.
Under the light of the lamp, Zhen Qing's gorgeous and almost seductive face was covered with frost, her eyes were cold, her slender hands were clenched into pink fists, she felt a secret hatred in her heart, after all, it was all that bastard's fault!
Beijing Palace
Zhen Xue was also bathing in the tub, gently stroking her soft white shoulders, looking at the candlelight swaying with the wind in the summer night in the hall in a daze.
Those soft words with blushing faces seemed to still ring in the ears, making people's hearts skip a beat, and the warm and intimate breaths were vaguely still breathing on the cheeks. The memories of the scenes filled the body and mind, and finally settled on a picture with a smile on his face.
On the cold face.
The beautiful young woman in Huaxin frowned, and her beautiful eyes were absent-minded. When she glanced at the room with her peripheral vision, she was attracted by a shining light, and she looked at the ring on her hand.
Feeling confused, in the midst of the gurgling sound, I stretched out my hands to wash my body gently, while the earlobe next to my earlobe swayed gently, just like the beauty's tangled and swaying heart for hundreds of times.
At this moment, the female official's voice came from the courtyard, "Toffee."
"Where is the princess?" Concubine Beijing's voice came one after another, with a clear hint of impatience.
"The princess is still taking a bath." The female officer's soft voice was respectful.
When Zhen Xue heard this, she was startled. She did not dare to neglect, and quickly washed herself. After a while, she came out of the bathtub, took the towel on the side, and quickly wiped her wet body inside and outside, and then called the female officer to come over and serve her.
Change your own clothes.
After a while, Zhen Xue changed into a light red dress and left the wing, only to see Concubine Beijing sitting on a pearwood chair in the front hall, holding a tea cup and sipping tea without saying a word.
"Mother-in-law." Zhen Xue called.
"Why did it take so long to come out? Where is Xin'er?" Princess Beijing put down the tea cup with a click and looked at Princess Beijing opposite, with a hint of coldness in her sharp eyes.
Rong'er is not at home, but she dresses up every day. She is just a fox! If Rong'er hadn't been fascinated by this fox, how could it be that there was no one in the room for so long?
"Xinxin is staying in Ningguo Mansion." Zhen Xue said in a low voice.
Concubine Beijing said coldly: "She is a child, so you can just leave her in Ningguo Mansion. How did you become a mother?"
"Today we are going to get married. According to protocol, we should stay one night in Ningguo Mansion." Zhen Xue said softly.
"A kiss?" Concubine Beijing frowned and asked, "Why don't I know? Who do you know?"
Zhen Xue said: "This is Mrs. Qin, the wife of Uncle Yongning. The prince said before that the Zhen and Jia families have been friends for many generations and should be closer. In addition, Mrs. Qin likes Xinxin, so she asked Xinxin to recognize her as her godmother. This matter
, Uncle Yongning also agreed."
Hearing this, Princess Beijing said, "Jia family? I heard from Princess Nan'an that Uncle Yongning doesn't usually show off the face of our old relatives. His eyes are higher than his head, and he is so arrogant?"
"I don't know about this either." Zhen Xue shook her head gently and suppressed the words of defense that were on her lips.
Princess Beijing snorted coldly, with a pale face, and said: "That sister of yours is very scheming, so don't mess with her. If you have time to take care of your daughter at home, don't run away from home every day."
"Yes." Zhen Xue responded calmly, not daring to talk back.
After Concubine Beijing left, Zhen Xue sighed quietly, returned to the side room, and lay down gently. At this moment, the dusk was closing, and the beauty felt a wave of tiredness coming over her. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep.
