It had snowed for three days in a row in Jing Du. There was a thick layer of snow on the ground. As far as the eye could see, everything was white. Zhao Ning held the stove in her hand, standing by the window and looking at the world of ice and snow outside.
"Wang fei, time to eat." Zi Juan walked in with the lunch and said in a low voice to Zhao Ning.
They had moved to the estate for a few days. Ever since that day, Zi Juan had not seen Zhao Ning smile. She was really worried, not knowing if wang fei's heart was as calm as water or if she was too sad.
"En." Zhao Ning nodded lightly, "It's been too cold these days. Let the kitchen boil more hot soup and send a bowl to everyone in the estate."
Zi Juan smiled and said, "Yes, wang fei is very kind."
Zhao Ning said lightly, "Good intentions may not be rewarded."
"Wang fei, are you still angry at wang ye?" Zi Juan handed a bowl of soup to Zhao Ning, carefully looking at her.
"Why would I be angry at wang ye?" Zhao Ning smiled self-mockingly, "I'm just angry at myself for overestimating myself."
She had thought that as long as she stayed by Mo Rongyi's side, he would like her sooner or later. So it was just her deceiving herself.
"It's snowing so heavily outside, but wang ye comes to find you every day. It can be seen that he cares about wang fei. What are those two little hoofs, why would wang ye care?" Zi Juan spoke for Mo Rongyi in a low voice.
In reality, they all felt that wang ye still cared about wang fei. Not to mention the two women from South Yue, wang ye had been coming to the estate every day, even if it was snowing heavily outside. Even though wang fei wasn't willing to see him, but he was unaffected by the wind and snow. In order not to make wang fei angry, he didn't even stay the night in the estate.
"That's because I'm the princess of the country of Qi. If I wasn't, he wouldn't be here." Zhao Ning said calmly. She didn't have any expectations for Mo Rongyi.
Zi Juan didn't know how to persuade Zhao Ning. She wanted to say a few good words for Mo Rongyi, but wang fei didn't seem to appreciate it at all. It was as if she had already made up her mind to break all ties with wang ye.
Zhao Ning glanced at her, "The snow has stopped. It should clear up tomorrow. Ask Manager Lin to come and see me. There are some things I need him to do."
Now, all her affairs in the Capital City had been handed over to Chief Steward Lin. After so many years, not only had everything been done in an orderly manner, he had also doubled her dowry. If she planned to leave the Jin Kingdom, she would have to ask him to make proper arrangements.
"Yes, wang fei." Zi Juan replied in a low voice.
At this time, Li Juan hurriedly walked in from outside, her face still filled with anger, "Wangfei, that … that woman has found her way to the Zhuangzi."
Zhao Ning's face darkened, "What woman?"
Zi Juan scolded in a low voice. "What are you panicking for, just let them fight them out."
"This servant wanted to be beaten out, but … that woman said she was pregnant with Prince, so this servant … didn't dare to beat her." Li Juan said, feeling wronged. She really wanted to beat them to death, but that woman said she was pregnant with Prince's child. If something really happened, it didn't matter if she was blamed by Prince, but what if Princess was blamed?
Zhao Ning's originally gloomy face instantly turned pale, his voice trembling as he asked, "They are pregnant with Prince's child?"
Li Juan saw her expression and was so frightened that she didn't know whether to speak or not.
"Wangfei, if they are pregnant with Prince's child, why would they come here? Shouldn't they be resting in the Prince's Residence? They must be up to no good, you don't have to care about them. "Zi Juan hurriedly said.
How could she ignore them?
Zhao Ning said coldly, "Go and bring them in."
Zi Juan and Li Juan called out at the same time, "Wangfei."
"You said it yourself, if they are really pregnant, they would definitely stay in the Prince's Residence. Since they have already found their way here, they must be here for me. If I don't see them, will they be willing?" Zhao Ning sneered. That day when she found out that they were Mo Rongyi's women, she was so agitated that she couldn't recover. Today, they came at the right time, she could ask them more clearly.
"Wangfei, so what if they are pregnant, they are just a thin horse with a lowly status. They are not fit to appear in front of you." Zi Juan was worried that Wangfei would be agitated and hurt again.
Zhao Ning smiled faintly, his tone unquestionable, "Go and bring them in."
Zi Juan and Li Juan looked at each other, as long as they listened to Zhao Ning's words.
The only person who found the residence was Yin Dong. She was wearing coarse cotton clothes and her head was wrapped in cotton cloth. Her face looked sallow and her lips were chapped. When she saw Zhao Ning, she immediately knelt down, "Wangfei, please save this servant."
The woman in front of her was completely different from a few days ago. Not only was she dressed like a village girl, she looked a lot more haggard. Because she was wearing cotton clothes, her body looked very bloated.
"You …" Zhao Ning looked behind her and did not see Yin Qiu, "What do you want to do?"
Yin Dong had been hiding outside for a few days. When she saw Zhao Ning, it was like she was grasping at the last strand of life. "Wangfei, this servant really has no other way. Wangye does not allow this servant to have children. In order to save this servant, Yin Qiu has already … has already died. This servant escaped with great difficulty, please save this servant."
"What about that Yin Qiu?" Zhao Ning looked at her coldly. Regarding the tears on Yin Dong's face, she did not feel anything.
She was not Guanyin Bodhisattva, who was compassionate enough to take care of her husband's mistress.
"That day … That day when Wangye came back, he ordered people to take us away. Wangye said that he does not allow us to stay in the capital. On the way, those people wanted to feed this servant medicine. Yin Qiu fought with them. This servant … this servant begged the waiter of the roadside tea stall to escape." Yin Dong recalled the chaos at that time. In fact, she did not know how she escaped. She did not even clearly see how Yin Qiu died.
She always felt that someone was secretly helping her, but she could not care less now. She only wanted to find a place to protect her life. If Wangfei was willing to save her, she would be able to survive in the capital.
Zhao Ning's mood had already calmed down. After listening to Yin Dong's words, she quickly found that there were many loopholes, "Who is the waiter of the tea stall? Why did he help you? How did you know that this Wangfei was here? Yin Qiu was beaten to death. How are you still alive? "
It was not that she looked down on women who were born as thin horses. That Yin Qiu did not seem to be a person who valued friendship and righteousness. Would she die to save Yin Dong?
Yin Dong shook her head with a pale face, "Wangfei, this servant really does not know. It was … it was someone who told this servant to find you."
"Who?" Zhao Ning asked coldly. Mo Rongyi wanted to send them away behind her back. It was definitely not his people. Then, who else knew of the existence of these two people?
"That person was standing in the dark. This servant did not see what he looked like." Yin Dong cried and kowtowed, "Wangfei, this servant has not eaten for a few days. I beg you, save this servant."
