The mean woman, who had already given up all hope, fainted when she heard that Commandery Princess Liancheng had ordered her to be brought in for interrogation.
She was as uneasy and terrified as she had been just a moment ago.
But what could she do? She had walked on her own. She had brought all of this upon herself.
After Commandery Princess Liancheng's men dragged the mean woman away, Commandery Princess Liancheng turned to look at Pang Wan. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly as she smiled, "Oh, isn't this Miss Pang? Why are you here today? Could it be that you're also here to customize clothes?"
Pang Wan hated Jiujiu so much that her teeth itched. She wanted nothing more than to burn down Jiujiu's shop. How could she possibly come here to customize clothes?
But now that Commandery Princess Liancheng asked her, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "No, I heard that something had happened here, so I came to take a look."
"Oh, how come I didn't realize you were so kind before? Since the matter has been settled, why aren't you leaving? Do you want to stay and drink tea with us? "
Commandery Princess Liancheng's intention to chase her away was clear.
Pang Wan was angered to death by Commandery Princess Liancheng's attitude, but she could only bite the bullet and say, "I'm leaving now. Does Commandery Princess want to come with me?"
Commandery Princess Liancheng glanced at Pang Wan, "I still have something to tell her, so I won't be going with you."
After Commandery Princess Liancheng finished speaking, she followed Jiujiu to the back.
Pang Wan glared fiercely at Jiujiu's back. She couldn't understand how Jiujiu had gotten acquainted with Commandery Princess Liancheng.
When Jiujiu followed Commandery Princess Liancheng to the back courtyard, the smile on Commandery Princess Liancheng's face instantly disappeared. She looked at Jiujiu with a serious expression and asked, "What did my mother say to you that day?"
"Sorry, I can't tell you." The reason why Princess Royal Nanyuan had not divorced Marquis Xuan Ping was because of Commandery Princess Liancheng. If she knew, Princess Royal Nanyuan's efforts would be in vain.
Seeing that Jiujiu was unwilling to tell her, Commandery Princess Liancheng frowned, "She's my mother, what is there that I can't know?"
"Because the ending is not something you can bear. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Princess Liancheng was startled. After a moment, she pursed her lips and asked, "Is it about Father?"
Jiujiu nodded.
Seeing that Jiujiu said that it was about the Marquis of Xuan Ping, Princess Liancheng, who originally wanted to ask more, immediately fell silent.
Princess Liancheng lowered her head and smiled bitterly. "I knew it. Mother was unwilling to tell me anything about Father."
If it wasn't because her mother didn't want to tell her, why would she bother to ask Jiujiu?
For a moment, Princess Liancheng's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She didn't know what to say to comfort her.
Jiujiu looked at Princess Liancheng silently and did not say anything.
After a moment of silence, Princess Liancheng looked at Jiujiu and said, "Since mother doesn't want you to say it, then it's fine if you don't say it. In the future, if you have any problems, just send Yuanyang to find me. As for the clothes, you must make my mother satisfied."
"Even if Princess doesn't say it, I will."
Seeing that Jiujiu agreed, Princess Liancheng put down a banknote worth a thousand taels and told Jiujiu to buy whatever she lacked. Then she left.
While Pang Wan was looking for Jiujiu, on the other side, Imperial Tutor Pang was looking for Jiujiu.
Imperial Tutor Pang knew that what he said wasn't very good. But when he thought of Pang Qing's tearful appearance, his heart instantly softened. He came to find Xiang Bei, hoping that Xiang Bei would agree so that Pang Qing would be satisfied.
Although the Emperor wanted to touch Imperial Tutor Pang, Imperial Tutor Pang was still his teacher. He still had to give him some respect.
Therefore, when Imperial Tutor Pang personally invited Xiang Bei, Xiang Bei had no choice but to accept.
Xiang Bei wasn't willing to go to Imperial Tutor Pang's house. Naturally, he couldn't go to Xiang Bei's house for that kind of matter. Imperial Tutor Pang booked a private room with Xiang Bei in a tea house. The two of them talked in the tea house.
It was hard to say that he wanted to turn his wife into a concubine.
But for Pang Qing, even if he had to bite the bullet, Imperial Tutor Pang still said it.
Xiang Bei was strange.
Although he was the new top scorer, he was a nobody before. Even if the Emperor placed him in an important position, his foundation was still shallow. How could a person like Imperial Tutor Pang, who was like a towering tree, find him again and again?
At this moment, when he heard Imperial Tutor Pang say that his daughter liked him and hoped that he would marry his daughter, Xiang Bei said without thinking, "This one has already married and had children. I'm afraid that I will have to disappoint Imperial Tutor's good intentions."
Imperial Tutor Pang stroked his beard. "I heard people say that you and your wife got married last winter. Your two children are not your biological children. You are such a young and talented man. Being together with such a woman is too much of a grievance."
Xiang Bei instantly frowned and refuted Imperial Tutor Pang's words, "Wife saved my life and recognized my worth. How can I be wronged?
On the contrary, when Wife was with me, I had nothing. If we were to talk about grievances, it should be Wife who was wronged. "
Imperial Tutor Pang was especially displeased by Xiang Bei's endless praise of Jiujiu and belittling of himself.
Imperial Tutor Pang frowned and looked at Xiang Bei, "Since it's like this, then I won't ask you to divorce your wife and marry someone else. Just let your wife be Qing 'er's wife. However, Qing' er is with you with a pure body. She must be the head wife."
Xiang Bei thought that if he said that, Imperial Tutor Pang would understand that he had deep feelings for Jiujiu and would definitely give up the idea of marrying his daughter.
However, he did not expect that Imperial Tutor Pang would want him to marry his daughter and even make Jiujiu his wife. It was really absurd.
Xiang Bei stood up and cupped his hands, "Imperial Tutor, you don't know. On the day of our marriage, I swore to the heavens that I, Xiang Bei, only have my wife in my life. If I violate this oath, I will be struck by lightning. I'm afraid that I will have to disappoint Imperial Tutor and Miss' good intentions."
After Xiang Bei finished speaking, he bowed to Imperial Tutor Pang and said, "I still have matters to attend to at home. I won't continue to disturb Imperial Tutor. Please excuse me."
After Xiang Bei finished speaking, he flung his sleeves and left without waiting for Imperial Tutor Pang to nod.
Imperial Tutor Pang's face flushed red as he looked at Xiang Bei's back. However, he could only watch as Xiang Bei left.
But if he was asked to give up, that was absolutely impossible.
Pang Qing had already told him that she would only marry Xiang Bei. If he could not persuade Xiang Bei, then he would have to sacrifice Pang Qing's happiness for the rest of her life.
No matter what method he used, he had to make Xiang Bei marry Pang Qing.
However, he had already been rejected twice by Xiang Bei. If he continued, he would lose face. After thinking about it, Imperial Tutor Pang finally decided to let Xiao Yu speak to Xiang Bei on his behalf.
Back then, Xiao Yu had given up his wife, who had gone through hardships with him, to marry Pang Wan for fame and fortune. This time, he used his name as bait to persuade Xiang Bei. Naturally, he was confident that he would succeed.
That night, Imperial Tutor Pang sent someone to call Xiang Bei into the room and told him that he hoped that Xiao Yu would help him persuade Xiang Bei to marry Pang Qing.
When Xiao Yu heard Imperial Tutor Pang's request, his face was filled with embarrassment.
