C211 chicken hair on the ground
Xiao Zongxian did not care that these precious solitaries were used as a stepping stone. Rather than a solitaire, he cared more about the woman that gave him a headache.
"You made a trip to the Tongzhou, why did she come looking for you?"
Xiao Zongxian was very confused.
Jiang Ting only replied: "The task that you had entrusted to me, has been completed."
Xiao Zongxian scratched his head. The last time he went to Tongzhou, he made a mistake, and Jiang Ting went to make up for his negligence. He knew that the matters of Mei Family had nothing to do with Jiang Ting, but he could not help but complain: "Let's not talk about that first, how can she have a body now?"
Jiang Ting, "..."
Just as Xiao Zongxian was about to speak, he was interrupted again by some noises coming from the courtyard.
Jiang Ting heard a female voice mixed with a weeping voice that broke through many layers of encirclement. The voice sounded somewhat familiar.
"Crown Prince, are you really that jealous of us two? We're just going to let that group of people humiliate us like that? "
Xiao Zongxian covered his ears with a headache, pointed outside and said: "Listen to me, listen to me, didn't you say so again? This mountain village woman really cannot be put on the stage. "
When he was carefree and happy, he didn't mind others not being able to show their respect.
Jiang Ting was still very calm and did not say a word.
Xiao Zongxian was already used to his silence, but he still felt powerless. If there was a third person in the room, he would have definitely started to comfort the crown prince already.
Xiao Zongxian did not want to go out and deal with this, so he hid in the study room and pretended to be deaf.
"I thought that if her brother and mother were placed outside and the three of them weren't together, they would be able to reduce the amount of monsters they were making. Who would have thought that all of them alone would cause this mansion to be in chaos."
With the Prince Rong's Mansion's first golden grandson, along with his mother's noble thoughts, he often felt that he was different from other people. However, he was extremely inferior to them, and thus lacked a sense of security. The palace was full of people who were more beautiful than her, and furthermore, she was more well-educated and of good birth.
She had a rough idea of what was going on. If she did not have a stomach to fight for, she would not even be able to get through the door of Prince Rong's Mansion.
The more it was like this, the more he wanted to stir up a commotion to prove that she was different from the others in the mansion.
However, she was not a very smart person. Her scheming skills were not even worth looking at in the backyard, so she could only use the method of throwing a tantrum.
Xiao Zongxian was disgusted: "Hurry up, hurry up and if you really piss me off, I'll send her to the manor outside the city, see how she will continue to act so atrociously."
Jiang Ting raised his eyebrows slightly. If he was just giving it to her, then wouldn't it be better to give it to her now? Since the manor was quiet, wouldn't it be more suitable to raise a baby if there weren't so many women around?
Before he could guess the answer, the study door burst open from the outside.
Xiao Zongxian's brows fiercely jumped, at the same time, Jiang Ting turned around and unsheathed her sword. Seeing the person who entered, she kept her sword, but when the person who entered saw Jiang Ting standing in the middle of the room, their charming face distorted, and they even forgot their reason for barging in.
It was still Xiao Zongxian's impatience that reminded her: "What are you making a fuss about so early in the morning?"
"I... "This servant didn't know that the crown prince had a guest. This servant will take her leave first."
Wu Niang came quickly, and also left quickly. The door to the study was opened, and then quickly closed, leaving the disciple with Xiao Zongxian standing there in shock, pointing towards the closed door as he said: "She is very tactful this time.
Of course he was tactful. Seeing someone who should have died suddenly standing in front of him, he was afraid he would not only be tactful, but also be frightened.
Jiang Ting was still as wooden as ever, and did not comment at all on Wu Niang's hasty return.
The door to the study room closed. Wu Niang was still alarmed after a long while. maid Xi Ping hurriedly stepped forward to support her, but she pushed him away. When the Ji consort who was arguing with her saw her coming out of the study dejectedly, she couldn't help but taunt her. However, it seemed like she didn't hear anything.
He could only feel his head buzzing, and a chill in his heart.
How, how, why did Jiang Ting not die, did Zheng Tong fail, or was that stinky man trying to disobey him, and not daring to find an assassin?
What exactly were Jiang and Xiao Zongxian talking about?
Did Xiao Zongxian already know about what happened at Tongzhou?
And Mian Niang, the Song Family?
Was the family dead?
~ If the person Zheng Tong was looking for wasn't easy to kill? The Song Family's rotten garlic was old and weak, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?
But why was Jiang Ting not dead?
She had seen the speed at which Jiang Ting acted, and knew that he was proficient in martial arts. Otherwise, Xiao Zongxian would not have kept him forever.
Therefore, he had specifically told Zheng Tong at that time to find an expert, not to worry about money.
This disappointing fellow actually couldn't even do such a small thing.
Wu Niang's face was pale white, she did not even care about the ridicule from the lady beside him.
She rushed back to her own room, where the servant Xi Yue was still lying on the bed. Xiao Zongxian's kick was really heart-wrenching, and almost caused a maid to vomit blood. Even now, she had not recovered from it, and seeing her unsightly expression, she asked: "Miss, what's wrong?"
As if she found an exit, she walked over and slapped Xi Yue on the face. "You little hoof, you cause me trouble all day long. Why are you arguing with someone so early in the morning? "
Xi Yue held her face in pain and said: "Miss's words are unreasonable, if I didn't fight for your first pot of hot water, I wouldn't have ended up arguing with others."
Wu Niang squinted his eyes as she sized up the joy in his eyes.
Joy was born with a pair of squinty eyes, a wide face and a drooping nose.
Based on his current appearance, he would definitely not be able to enter Xiao Zongxian's courtyard to serve him.
However, Wu Niang saw that the servant was extremely beautiful, and became a lot more worried. She was also worried that the Grand maidservant by the princess' side would be difficult to deal with and did not take the Grand maidservant, but instead asked for the coarse-looking girl in the courtyard, Xi Yue, to come over with a maid.
This Xi Yue was originally a shrewd person who wanted to be strong, it was just that she had been immobile for a long time, so the only people she could bully were maid like Xi Ping.
Ever since they had started following Wu Niang, the two of them seemed to want to match each other in one fell swoop.
Wu Niang always wanted to be a big shot, and she did not want to lose out on everything. She was most willing to show off her might, and caused the courtyard to become restless.
She did not take it to heart. Xiao Zongxian was born with a peach blossom face, but deep down, he was heartless and unloyal. It was just that Wu Niang had to spend a lot of effort to please him because he wanted to have a good time on his body.
But even so, she was not the most favored person in the courtyard. She could not help but panic, and the more she wanted to grab onto something, the more she wanted Xi Yue to cause trouble.
He just wanted to show that he was different.
Usually, when Xi Yue caused such a ruckus, she would be in favor of it. But today, Xi Yue had received a slap across the face, causing her to be extremely unhappy. She had never placed a country bumpkin like master in her eyes before, and this slap even brought her disgust back out.
"You still dare to talk back to me?" Wu Niang slapped his face again. Xi Yue was unable to dodge in time, and after a "pa" sound, a clear palm mark was left on his face.
She covered her face and looked at Wu Niang, her eyes filled with hatred.
maid hid far away, not daring to get between the two.
Wu Niang stared deadly at Xi Yue. For a moment, she had only treated her as Jiang Ting, Mian Niang, as well as Zheng Tong who had never failed in his plans.
Xi Yue was the first to recover from his shock. No matter what, the person in front of him was still her master, so there was no benefit in fighting her head on. She would be the one to suffer the loss.
She immediately put on a smiling face and rolled down from the bed. Without caring about the pain in her face, she tried to curry favor with them: "Where did the lady say that? How could this servant dare talk back to you? However, young lady, what's wrong with you? You're the bad one, but you praise the first golden grandson of our Prince Rong's Mansion, and those are the golden leaves of dragons and phoenixes, and those hens who can't lay eggs, on what grounds do they have to put themselves above you? Just based on their fox charms, do you think that they are able to seduce the Crown Prince? "
As he talked about the child in his stomach, Wu Niang's face darkened, and his guilty conscience almost failed him. Luckily, Xi Yue was barely able to support him and she managed to sit on the collapsed bed.
This child...
Wu Niang did not dare to think too much into it. Thinking of Jiang Ting's pair of eyes and that person's usual expressionless face, Wu Niang became extremely anxious. Cold sweat dripped down from her forehead as if the matter had been exposed right in front of her eyes.
She turned her head to look at Xi Yue, who immediately revealed a fawning smile and called out, "Miss?"
Xi Yue ordered Xi Ping to get some water to wash her face. With her current appearance, she definitely did not want to leave this place.
Xi Ping was just someone who listened to errands, no matter what Xi Yue asked her to do, she did not argue with him, and really went out to fetch water.
As Xi Yue closed the door, only two people remained. Gradually, Xi Yue could tell that something was wrong, as she knew that this person must not have made a good friend today, or else he would not have come back to find her. Just now, when she had received the scorching pain from her two slaps, she did not dare to directly ask Wu Niang for confirmation.
She wasn't in a hurry. She was in this courtyard right and left, so she couldn't hide anything.
Wu Niang looked at Xi Yue as she tried to come up with a plan.
After a while, Xi Ping returned with hot water. Her gaze swept over the two maids and said to Xi Yue: "Go to the kitchen and see what's for breakfast today. I want to eat vegetarian buns.
Vegetable stuffed buns. This young master had always liked eating big fish, big meat, and seafood, so why did he want to eat vegetarian stuffed buns this morning?
She hesitated and did not want to go out to meet someone with that face, so she begged Wu Niang: "Miss, can you let Xi Ping go?"
"You go!" Wu Niang's attitude was firm, her expression cold and fierce.
"You made a trip to the Tongzhou, why did she come looking for you?"
Xiao Zongxian was very confused.
Jiang Ting only replied: "The task that you had entrusted to me, has been completed."
Xiao Zongxian scratched his head. The last time he went to Tongzhou, he made a mistake, and Jiang Ting went to make up for his negligence.
