Jingwan smiled, "Daughter-in-law greets Imperial Mother. Many blessings to Imperial Mother."
As the saying goes, one should not slap a smiling face. Moreover, she had not returned for a long time, so she should be happy. No matter how upset she was, plus the "new and old hatred", she could not show it at this moment, unless Imperial Concubine Su wanted to tear up the perfect image she had maintained for 20 to 30 years.
Therefore, Imperial Concubine Su smiled, but the corners of her eyes unconsciously raised. Imperial Concubine Su's eyes were special. When she raised the corners of her eyes, there was an indescribable sense of sharpness. When she was young, she was quite flamboyant and often showed the corners of her eyes. Later, it gradually weakened, making her temperament soften, but it did not mean that her heart also softened. Occasionally, when she lost control of her emotions or deliberately did something, that feeling might be very obvious.
"No need for formalities." Imperial Concubine Su waved her hand perfunctorily.
Jingwan got up and turned to Princess Rui, "Third sister-in-law, nice to meet you."
Princess Rui returned the greeting unhurriedly. "Sixth sister-in-law, you are finally back. Imperial Mother has been talking about you every day."
"Wang Ye also misses Mufei every day." Opening one's mouth was something that required a bit of effort. Who didn't know how to say good things?
"Don't say such nonsense. It's been half a year. It's good that you are back. Speaking of which, Yuan 'er really dotes on his wife. He probably can't bear to refuse you many things. But as a wife, if you can get the love of your husband, you should be more considerate and think of him. Sixth sister-in-law, don't you think so? "Imperial Concubine Su's smile did not change, like an elder who carefully taught a child.
Jingwan's eyes flashed slightly. Was she saying that she was arrogant because of the love, did not know when to stop? More seriously, violated the Three Obedience and Four Virtues? Jingwan thought it was quite funny. To put it bluntly, Imperial Concubine Su was only a concubine in the imperial family. In other families, there was only one proper mother-in-law. But after all, their identities were different. Well, she just listened. As for whether she understood or not, whether she really didn't understand or not, whether she really understood or not, of course, only she herself knew.
Jingwan's smile was also inconvenient, and there was even a bit of naivety in it. "Mufei is right. Wang Ye loves this concubine, so this concubine will naturally support Wang Ye in everything." It was your son who wanted to take me to Jiangnan. It was your son who made me accept that huge bribe. I didn't even care about my own reputation. Who else could be more obedient than me?
She wasn't in a good mood to begin with. Naturally, it was easier for her to be annoyed. She was immediately annoyed by Jingwan. She didn't think that Jingwan didn't understand. She was obviously pretending to be dumb. How could she not be angry? However, she couldn't find any fault with her answer. Noble Consort Su was angry. Since she couldn't understand her in a roundabout way, she would be direct. She sighed softly and said, "Yuan 'er is going to Jiangnan on official business this time, and it's a very important matter. Sixth daughter-in-law, even if you don't know the importance of it, you should be aware. Not to mention other things, when a man goes out, there's no reason for a woman to follow him. Even if Yuan' er asked you to go, you should dissuade him."
Jingwan frowned. "Mufei is saying that you want this daughter-in-law to disobey Wang Ye? How can that be? "The last few words were quite righteous.
Noble Consort Su almost vomited blood. She picked up the teacup to hide her anger. After calming down, she continued, "It's not disobedience. It's reasonable and appropriate advice. As long as it's correct, it's fine to say a few words."
"Imperial Mother is right. However, you were the one who raised His Highness. You know best what kind of person he is. Do you think that when he makes a decision, he will listen to my advice?" Jingwan's expression and tone revealed a little helplessness.
Noble Consort Su choked again. This time, it was because she thought of Li Hongyuan's bad temper. She rubbed her aching temples. "Yuan 'er's temper isn't good. As the person who sleeps beside him and as his virtuous wife, you should always advise him."
Jingwan's face showed a bit of confusion. She mumbled, "Mufei, you raised him for more than 20 years. Wang Ye's current temperament …" It's all because of you. "Moreover, it's fine to say a few words occasionally, but at this time … don't you usually say that you're married?" Her voice was a bit weak.
What did she mean? Was she accusing her of not teaching her son well? Noble Consort Su looked at Jingwan. She couldn't hide the unkindness in her eyes.
Bear with it, bear with it some more, slowly, slowly …
Noble Consort Su felt that Jingwan was deliberately beating around the bush with her. There seemed to be contradictions between the three obedience and four virtues. How to deal with it, she naturally had to find a balance. But if she really wanted to argue, she couldn't. If she continued, this Luo-shi would definitely continue to talk nonsense with her. She suddenly found that this old sixth daughter-in-law was much more difficult to deal with than old third daughter-in-law. But now, the Emperor paid more attention to the Minister of Personnel Affairs. She had to consider her attitude towards Luo-shi. Not to mention, she also had to consider Yuan 'er. Yuan' er seemed to have some feelings for this woman. "In short, if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, don't go with him."
"Next time? Wang Ye will have a chance to leave the capital next time? "Jingwan was a bit confused and a bit sad.
This time, Noble Consort Su was choked speechless. Jin Qinwang's situation was known by the whole capital.
Princess Rui, who acted as a background on the side, didn't change her expression, but she couldn't help but be speechless in her heart. This sixth sister-in-law was too powerful. Her mother was indeed a kind mother-in-law, but when she faced her, she was very frightened. This sixth sister-in-law dared to play dumb and choked her until she couldn't speak, but she couldn't lose her temper.
"You've been in Jiangnan for so long. Tell ben gong, what have you encountered." Noble Consort Su stiffly changed the topic.
"It's hard to say. We've obtained a lot of good things. Some of them were prepared for mufei, and some were personally picked by Wang Ye." Jingwan turned around and had people send the things in. It wasn't much, but each of them were treasures. The Ageless Pill was still the highlight.
Noble Consort Su really showed a relatively sincere smile, "Yuan 'er is considerate. You're also a filial child."
Jingwan humbly said a few words. At this time, she appeared graceful. Just standing there, she felt exceptionally calm.
The change before and after was obvious, but Jingwan didn't hide it at all.
Noble Consort Su didn't want to bother about this anymore, but she also put down the Ageless Pill. Her expression also faded a lot. After all, as far as she knew, this daughter-in-law had received a lot of good things in Jiangnan. Perhaps the things that were given to her were all good, but definitely not one of them came from those things. Her face became serious, "Lao Liu daughter-in-law, ben gong heard that you wantonly accepted bribes in Jiangnan. This matter has been abuzz both inside and outside the court. Is this true?"
Jingwan's expression didn't change, "It's true. Ready-made gold and silver, plus gold and silver notes, as well as all kinds of rare treasures. Added together, it's several tens of millions of taels." Her tone was light, and there was even a faint smile.
Noble Consort Su was shocked by this amount and immediately smashed her cup, "You have big guts! You actually dared to mislead Yuan 'er like this. "
Jingwan seemed to have known this would happen and promptly retreated. Only the hem of her clothes was splashed with water. She looked at Noble Consort Su and calmly said, "Imperial Mother, did you misunderstand something? It's true that this daughter-in-law accepted things, but this matter was also tacitly approved by Imperial Father. Everything was listed and presented to Imperial Father early on. After these things are sorted out, they'll all be put into the national treasury. "
Noble Consort Su's half-real anger seemed to have been doused with a bucket of ice water. She couldn't help but shiver. She was an intelligent person. With just a little thought, she was able to figure out most of the powerful relationships within. Then, she thought back to the time when the courtiers, Shen Yuan 'er and her husband, were at their fiercest. The emperor's attitude was truly strange. He was so biased that he didn't care about the interests of the entire country. So this was the reason. Even now, Tian 'er couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
"So it was Imperial Mother who misunderstood you. Tell me, what exactly is going on here? "
Jingwan stared at Noble Consort Su for a moment before she slowly opened her mouth, "This daughter-in-law had an accident. Imperial Mother should be more concerned about Prince's safety. After all, Imperial Mother didn't even say a word about the assassination attempts that happened time and time again."
Noble Consort Su paused. When she saw Jingwan's faint gaze, she felt her hair stand on end, as if she had been completely seen through. "At that time, it was because …"
