Concubine De's expression was a little relaxed, and she seemed to have succeeded in her plan. She raised her head and looked at her daughter-in-law very coldly, and then said: "You should talk to him about this yourself."
After saying this, the middle-aged woman picked up the tea cup, gently skimmed off the foam on it with the lid, and then took a sip.
Seeing that the man was about to explode, Bai Ruiyi suddenly shed tears and said, "My lord, it's really not what you think."
But King Jin could not hear these words now. His whole body trembled, "You just need to tell me, is what your maid said true or false? Do you really still keep the things he gave you?" "
To deny it at this time is to dig a hole for yourself.
Of course, Bai Ruiyi would not be so stupid. She blinked her eyes, tears falling down her face as if she wanted no money, "Yes, I do still keep the things he gave me."
As soon as these words came out, King Jin no longer gave Bai Ruiyi a chance to speak, and he became irritable.
He directly grabbed the vase on the side and threw it to the ground with force, and said through gritted teeth: "Bai Ruiyi, this king is not kind to you. I never treat you badly when you want something, and no one in the palace dares to do anything to you." Such an expression! Of the two women in the capital, who has a higher status than you? And what about you? Who do you have in your heart?"
Lin Qingwan didn't expect to see such a good show. Seeing Concubine De looking at her, she immediately lowered her head with a surprised expression and gently wiped her cheek with a handkerchief.
This look was really eclipsed, as if he had been severely injured.
"My lord, it's not what you think. Please listen to my explanation." Bai Ruiyi was a little anxious and rushed forward to grab Prince Jin's arm, but Prince Jin would not accept this trick again and threw her away.
Seeing this scene, Bai Ruiyi's whole body began to tremble. In fact, the man's strength was not very strong at all, but she just fell to the ground. He also made it look like his arm was scratched.
Prince Jin felt a little distressed and subconsciously wanted to reach out. But the pupils changed slightly, but in the end there was still no movement.
Bai Ruiyi then continued: "Your Majesty, I did keep the things he gave me, but I did it all for the sake of Your Majesty!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone present looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what the words meant for a moment.
Concubine De and Prince Jin were also puzzled. The expressions of mother and son were somewhat similar, both looking at the woman.
In the end, it was the former who spoke out first, "What do you mean by this? Things have developed like this, do you still want to quibble?"
Bai Ruiyi immediately supported her body and stood up, saluting respectfully towards Concubine De, "Since I married the prince, my mother and concubine have taught me a lot. It's not too late for me to be grateful. I have long forgotten what happened in the past. How can I still return the favor?" Will you remember your old love?"
"I have already scattered and thrown away the things His Highness the War King gave me, leaving only a city map that he drew during the war. I thought that the King would always use it in the future, so I kept it. I didn’t expect that this would bring about such controversy and disaster for me.”
The woman's voice became choked, and she was temporarily aggrieved. "If this is the case, then I would like to ask Concubine De to make the decision and let me and the prince reconcile. From now on, I will never appear between the prince and the concubine again." in front of my eyes."
After finally marrying Prince Jin, how could she give up so easily? Bai Ruiyi was just playing hard to get.
She knew very well what kind of person King Jin was, so this move was almost tailor-made for him.
As expected, the man who had been so agitated just now calmed down instantly, with a hint of disbelief flashing in the depths of his pupils, and finally raised his feet and moved forward slowly, "Is everything you said true?"
At this time, without caring about the consequences of swearing a poisonous oath, Bai Ruiyi directly raised one of her hands, "If what I said is wrong, the sky will thunder..."
"That's enough!" Prince Jin interrupted her words directly. He took a deep breath and finally chose to believe the person in front of him.
He raised his hand towards Concubine De and said, "Concubine Mother called Er Chen and Rui Yi over today. Do you mean to blame her for this frivolous thing?"
"There is also the matter about the Royal Garden today. Ruiyi also wanted me to show my face in front of the Queen Mother. I was so ill that I rushed to the hospital. That's why I made the mistake. Please forgive me."
The more he spoke, the firmer his tone became. In the end, he raised his head and looked directly at his mother, "If the mother-in-law insists on punishing Rui Yi, then please bring her sons and ministers to punish her together. After all, I have been taught since I was a child that husband and wife are one. If my wife While you are being punished, your husband is watching from the side. Isn’t it unjust?”
This is the first time that King Jin has been so tough in front of Concubine De, and it's actually for a white lotus.
Defei was so angry that his whole head was buzzing, and he gently pinched the center of his eyebrows with one hand. The nun next to him immediately stepped forward and said, "My dear, are you okay?"
Concubine De stretched out a hand and shook her head gently. Her expression of anger and disappointment just now changed instantly. She looked up at Bai Ruiyi and suddenly gave a sneer, "I hope you will always remember what you said today. If you violate it in the future, I will not forgive you lightly."
This change happened so fast that Bai Ruiyi felt a little panicked. However, she couldn't care too much about the current situation, so she bent down and saluted, "I will always keep my mother's lesson in mind and dare not forget it..."
Lin Qingwan also had some doubts in her heart. What kind of medicine was sold in Concubine De's gourd? Calling Bai Ruiyi over to reprimand him like this, but finally saying such things, could it be that he just wanted to make his son happy? I'm afraid she's not this kind of person, right?
"Your Highness, King of War, come out." The middle-aged woman suddenly turned around and said something to the back of the screen.
I saw a black shadow shaking, and the next second it appeared directly in front of several people.
One of Xuan Qianchen's legs was still bandaged, but he still didn't let anyone help him, so he limped out from behind the screen.
His whole body has a cold temperament, and his eyes are dull, as if he could turn into a ghost at any time and tear people into pieces.
Bai Ruiyi was completely stunned now, the expression on his face was full of shock.
how so?
Only then did Lin Qingwan realize that Concubine De was acting like a mantis hunting cicadas, with the oriole behind.
If Bai Ruiyi could not successfully explain to herself, her marriage to Prince Jin would definitely end. If she could successfully explain to herself, she would actually belittle Xuan Qianchen to promote herself. At this time, Xuan Qianchen appeared, which proved that he heard everything that happened here just now, which was very interesting now.
Sure enough, ginger is still spicy. No matter how smart Bai Ruiyi is, she can't escape the clutches of Concubine De in the end, but... today's scene was really exciting.
