Chapter 1,215: He Was Beaten Just After Returning Home

"I've seen Princess Chen!" After Shao Jie'er entered the door, she stepped forward to salute the concubine without looking away, and then saluted to Shao Wanru who was aside.

"Second sister, you're welcome. Second sister, please sit down!" Shao Wanru said softly.

Shao Jie'er raised her eyes and looked at the concubine sitting in the middle.

"Princess Chen is so polite, why don't you sit down and have a chat." The concubine nodded with a gentle smile. The maid brought a spring stool over and Shao Jie'er sat down sideways.

"Toffee, since the second sister is here, please come back with me. Grandma's body is really..." Shao Wanru sighed softly and looked at the concubine.

"Of course Jie'er should be allowed to go, but I don't know how many days we will stay?" the concubine asked gently.

"This... I really don't know. It depends on my grandmother's condition. If nothing happens, the second sister can go back today!" Shao Wanru looked at Shao Jie'er and saw the nervousness in Shao Jie'er's eyes after hearing what he said. .

"Is the queen's health so bad?" the queen asked in surprise.

"Grandma's health is getting worse and worse. She has some old problems. She wasn't well raised in the first place. There are a lot of things in the house, and there is no one in the backyard who can take charge. Grandma is tired and feels a little uncomfortable." Shao Wanru said vaguely. road.

The incident in the Xingguo Hou Mansion has indeed made the entire capital more and more criticized.

"What happened to your second aunt? How could something happen so easily in the Ministry of Justice?" The concubine asked curiously when she mentioned the incident in the Xingguo Hou Mansion.

"I don't know what happened to this matter. The Ministry of Justice is still investigating." The smile on Shao Wanru's face faded.

"I heard that Jiang went in because of Princess Chen, is it true?" The concubine seemed not to notice the displeasure on Shao Wanru's face and continued to ask.

Chu Qing sat on the side with a smile and said nothing.

"The Ministry of Punishment is investigating the matter of Jiang and his second uncle. The concubine will know about it once the settlement is reached." Shao Wanru said coldly.

"I heard that Princess Chen's younger brother is the prince of Xingguohou. Such a big thing happened in Xingguohou's mansion, so why don't you go to Xingguohou's mansion?" The concubine asked again. Although she changed the topic, the meaning of her words was still... People are deeply unhappy.

"Grandma is the one who made the decision. I don't quite understand!" Shao Wanru shook his head, and the unhappy expression on his pink face became more and more obvious.

These questions were too personal. Not to mention that the concubine and Shao Wanru had never known each other before. Even if the two people had a relationship before, they should not say such things.

"Princess Chen, I'm sorry! My mother-in-law has been living in Yuhui Nunnery for so many years, she's used to it!" Chu Qing explained with a smile.

"It's okay, it's just that these things are the affairs of the elders and not something I can kiss. It's getting late, so I will take the second sister back first. If nothing happens, I will ask the Hou Mansion to send the second sister back later. "Shao Wanru stood up.

On top of that, he was going to see a patient again, so naturally the Prince Qing’s Mansion couldn’t keep anyone else.

Someone prepared a carriage and followed Shao Wanru's carriage to the Xingguo Hou Mansion.

When they arrived at the Xingguo Hou Mansion, Shao Jie'er got off the carriage and wanted to wait for Shao Wanru behind her to enter together. However, she saw Yu Jie hurriedly getting off the carriage in Prince Chen's Mansion, walked up to Shao Jie'er and saluted her sideways: "Second Miss, our princess is not feeling well. , I won’t go in, let’s just follow the second lady’s wishes, our princess has fulfilled her promise!”

This means that what happens next has nothing to do with Shao Wanru!

Although Shao Jie'er wanted to cling to Shao Wanru again, Shao Wanru didn't even get off the carriage, and the two of them couldn't see each other, so she couldn't pull her even if she wanted to.

live.

Seeing Yu Jie quickly get into Prince Chen's carriage, the coachman whipped his whip, turned the horse's head and drove away, leaving Shao Jie'er at the door.

"Concubine..." Liu Xiang said.

"Call Miss Second!" Shao Jie'er interrupted Liu Xiang's words.

"Yes... it's the Second Miss..." Liu Xiang hurriedly changed her story. In Qingjun Palace, she sometimes called Miss Shao Jie'er the Second Miss in order to comply with the concubine's wishes. This change of words was not difficult.

Zhao Xiran got the news at the gate and hurried out to greet him. He was stunned for a moment when he saw only Shao Jie'er.

"Sister-in-law!" Shao Jie'er stepped forward and saluted.

"Second sister, you... why are you here? Where is fifth sister?" Zhao Xiran looked outside for a few times and asked in surprise.

The people in front of the mansion came to tell the time, but they only said that Princess Chen was here, and did not say that Shao Jie'er had returned to the mansion. Shao Jie'er had lost contact with the people in the mansion since she entered the Qingjun Prince's Mansion. She didn't expect to come at this pass. Judging from Shao Jie'er's appearance, she knew that her life in Qingjun Prince's Mansion was not satisfactory.

"Fifth sister sent me here and left!" Shao Jie'er stood up straight and said.

"How could you just leave? Grandma happened to be looking for her for something!" Zhao Xiran stamped his feet vigorously and said anxiously. The house is in chaos now. The father-in-law was actually taken away by people from the Ministry of Punishment. The madam was anxious and panicked to let her go. I went to look for Shao Wanru by myself, but I really didn’t have the nerve to look for her. I heard that Princess Chen was coming, so I hurried over, only to find that she was gone again.

It's not easy to explain to the madam either.

"How is grandma doing?" Shao Jie'er asked.

"Grandma is still in good health. Just wait while I chase the fifth sister." Zhao Xiran was not in the mood to pay attention to Shao Jie'er, so he turned around and ordered someone to prepare a carriage to chase her.

But Shao Jie'er grabbed her sleeve, "Sister-in-law, Fifth Sister has an idea, so what if you chase her now? Is it possible that you can really chase Fifth Sister back?"

"But we have to go after Shao Wanru. The fifth sister is already here, how can we not go into the house?" Zhao Xiran was so troubled by the quarrel with the madam that he wanted to chase Shao Wanru wholeheartedly.

"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. Next time I will go with you to meet the fifth sister. It will be easier for us to talk when we go together." Shao Jie'er held Zhao Xiran's hand and did not let go.

This was quite polite. Zhao Xiran was originally embarrassed to go to the door of Prince Chen's Mansion. Hearing what Shao Jie'er said, he felt relieved and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, next time you go with me. The second sister doesn't know that grandma We are so anxious, and now only the fifth sister can solve this problem!"

Zhao Xiran said with a headache. No one expected that things would turn out like this until now.

They took the Jiang family away before, and then the Jiang family died. Now it's Shao Jing. Shao Jing is the Marquis of Xingguo and the head of the family in the mansion. The lady inside was so anxious that she slapped Zhao Xiran twice and asked her to go. Think of something.

But what can she do? Although she is smart, she must also be a woman from the inner court. She knows that the madam wants to force her to go to her father to help settle the matter, but her father is of no use. Her father sent a message telling her not to worry about it. , the kind of thing Shao Jing might do might bring down the entire Xingguo Hou Mansion.

There was nothing her father could do, so she turned to Shao Wanru.

Among the princes of Xingguo, only Shao Wanru, who has status and status, is the only one who can help Shao Jing speak.

But Shao Wanru ignored her, and Zhao Xiran couldn't do anything he asked her to do. This was why she hurriedly came out when she heard Shao Wanru coming to the door of the Hou Mansion.

Unexpectedly, the person we met was not Shao Wanru, but the useless Shao Jie'er.

Right now only

Being able to take Shao Jie'er in, after entering the main room, Mrs. Tai got the news and got up happily, just waiting for Shao Wanru to come in. This time she asked Shao Wanru to save the Xingguo Hou Mansion and save herself no matter what. My son, he even made up his mind to kneel down to Shao Wan.

Unexpectedly, it was Shao Jie'er and Zhao Xiran who came through the door.

The Dowager's face turned pale: "Where is Princess Chen?"

"Madam, the fifth sister has gone back. She specially sent me here today. I heard that Madam Tai is in poor health, so I came to take a look!" Shao Jie'er took two steps forward and saluted Madam Tai.

Looking at Shao Jie'er's face, the wife was so angry that she picked up something and threw it at Shao Jie'er: "What's the use of you coming? Only five girls are useful, one or two, no matter whether it's useful or not , take them all to the mansion."

The madam was preoccupied with the matter of her son being taken to the Ministry of Punishment. She was so confused that she disliked everyone. Zhao Xiran had been beaten by her before, and now it was Shao Jie'er's turn.

Zhao Xiran calmly took another step back, staying far away from the madam.

Shao Jie'er was hit and it hurt. She looked sideways and saw that what fell to the ground was a wooden fish. It looked very heavy. The hit caused her to feel pain in her vest, and her throat felt sweet. She knew it was not good, so she swallowed hard. After swallowing, he suppressed the sweetness in his mouth, and a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

She originally wanted to deal with the madam, but since this old lady wanted to kill herself, why should she care about her.

"Madam, I will accompany my sister-in-law to invite the fifth sister in a moment." Shao Jie'er said, suppressing the hatred in her heart.

It was this old woman who caused her marriage to become like this. Now that she was in this situation, it would be fine if she didn't help her, and she was still so angry at herself. Shao Jie'er had long hated his wife to death.

"Then hurry up and go! What are you waiting for? If something happens to your father, you will not be able to gain a foothold in the Prince Qing's palace in the future. When the princess comes in, who will support you?" Tai Fu scolded.

Shao Jie'er was so angry that she said as if her father would support her when nothing happened. A trace of ridicule flashed in her eyes. She was just a concubine who was used to gain the greatest benefit for Shao Yanru. Everything she had could only be for Shao Yanru. No, and it has to be for Shao Yanru’s benefit.

There is never oneself in the so-called flesh and blood relationship.

The madam actually has the nerve to put on such an expression.

"Grandma, we will go in a minute. Grandma, do you want to rest for a while? The fifth sister will come later, and grandma will be able to have some energy to talk to the fifth sister." Shao Jie'er said softly, raised her eyes, and her eyes fell on the Madam's crooked eyes. On his face, one look at the condition of the wife and knew that it was not good.

But doing so made it easier for her.

Mrs. Taifu had regained her energy before and was waiting for Shao Wanru. Now Shao Wanru has not come. Shao Jie'er is indeed not very energetic. After hearing what Shao Jie'er said, she closed her eyes and said to Aunt Yu: "Help me go in and have a rest." meeting."

Aunt Yu stepped forward to hold one side of the Mrs. Tai, and Shao Jie'er also hurriedly stepped forward and held the other side of the Mrs. Tai. Together, they helped the Mrs. Tai inside, and Zhao Xiran followed in.

"Sister-in-law, please prepare some things first, and we will go to see the fifth sister together later." Yu Jie'er lowered her voice.

The lady was quite satisfied with what she said and hummed a few times.

"Okay, I'll go now. I'll invite the second sister later." Zhao Xiran nodded knowingly and retreated. When he was outside, he took a deep breath, turned to look at the house, and there was a trace of unknown meaning on the corner of his lips. Smile...
