Zhongyongbo Mansion.
As soon as Mrs. Qi entered the door, the third Mrs. Qi heard about it and came over to look for him.
"Mom, how is it? Have you told Qing Niang?" The third lady couldn't wait to ask: "Has she agreed?"
Mrs. Qi looked ugly and did not respond. The third lady saw something was wrong in her expression and became anxious.
During this period, she was restless in eating and sleeping, and was so angry that she had two blisters on her mouth.
Her Qi Hui is the only male of her generation in the uncle's house. Her husband is useless. The only hope for the third wife lies in her brother Hui. Her brother Hui is so young and has a bright future. Now he is getting a lot of notoriety for no reason, and he is even compared to Qi Yun from the big house. From now on, if you take the imperial examination and become an official, your achievements and career will be affected by this incident.
Wen Yiqing harmed her child, but the little girl lived comfortably without paying any price. How could she endure this!
The third lady said anxiously: "That little girl Wen Shan harmed Brother Hui like this, can this matter be settled like this? If it hadn't been for her, Brother Hui wouldn't have been arrested and sent to Dali Temple, and the master wouldn't have suffered such a big loss. My face. Mom, Qing Niang hurt us like this, how can you favor Qing Niang?"
"Am I partial to her?" Mrs. Qi said angrily: "She was just lucky, and someone from the Chen family happened to be there. The uncle made a mistake in front of the emperor, and the emperor also issued an order to severely punish the powerful family who bullied others. How dare I say anything more to cause others to take advantage of me."
"Chen family?!"
The third lady was shocked: "Why should the Chen family protect Qing Niang?!"
"The man said he was passing by."
Mrs. Qi didn’t dare to test her further.
Although there was only one corner, she recognized the corner of the token as the emblem of the Chen family. In the capital, the most popular person now is Chen Xuan, who has just taken over as the commander of the bodyguards. Anyone who sits in the position of commander of the bodyguards is a confidant of the emperor, and no one can offend the Chen family. Whether it's true or not, it's always good to be careful.
But this matter cannot be left alone.
How could the illustrious family of Lord Zhongyong and his family let a businesswoman trample their faces to the ground again and again?
Mrs. Qi's mind changed and she had an idea.
"From the third family."
She waved to the third lady, who understood what she meant and hurriedly came over.
Mrs. Qi whispered: "You are like this..."
…
After getting the accurate answer from the emperor and knowing that he would not take her away to be a little palace maid, Shanshan felt completely at ease.
After class every day, Shitou went to General Wen's place to practice martial arts. Wen Yiqing was still in the shop. In the short time before the two went home, Shanshan secretly went next door to play with the emperor's uncle.
The emperor was knowledgeable and knew everything. He would teach her how to do her homework, and he could answer any questions she asked. He was also good at literature and martial arts. Shanshan saw with his own eyes that he could bend the bow and shoot an arrow, easily hitting the red heart of the target in the distance, and even guided Shanshan. Shanshan rode a big horse in a circle and asked Shanshan to sit in front. She grabbed the horse rope and felt very majestic!
The emperor would also give her many toys and delicious snacks. Bian Chen also prepared a room for her in the house next door. It was originally empty, but Shanshan was like a diligent little ant, filling it up bit by bit, and there were still some things that she didn't want her mother to know. She hid all the things there, and occasionally there would be things she had never seen before, which were surprises given to her by Bian Chen.
Shanshan really likes the emperor’s uncle!
She couldn't be a little palace maid, so naturally she wasn't afraid of the prince anymore. When the prince came to look for her, she no longer hid and would take the initiative to talk to him.
The prince was overjoyed.
Although he didn't know why Shanshan was hiding from him before, but now that his sister is willing to get close to him, it means that his efforts during this period have not been in vain.
He had already learned clearly about the emperor's preferences for Shan Shan, and now someone was finally willing to accept the snacks sent out, so there was an extra snack in the meals sent from the palace every day. Sometimes it's cheese, sometimes it's cakes, or it's salty snacks. There's nothing different every day, everything is suitable for Shanshan's appetite.
After eating so well, my belly was round. When I came back, I said many good things about the prince to Bian Chen Ji Li Gulu.
The emperor’s family are really good people!
This afternoon, there was another riding and shooting lesson.
Shanshan lazily followed Wu Fuzi to move his hands and feet. The lunch break had just ended, the sun was still strong, and he broke out in a hot sweat after a while. Shanshan wiped the sweat from her forehead and began to miss the ice bowl that the prince gave her today.
The ice bowl is made of half a bowl of crushed ice, with fresh melon on top. When you eat to the bottom of the bowl, the crushed ice is filled with the juice of the melon and fruit, which is sweet and refreshing. The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, so a bowl of ice is perfect to cool down. .
As soon as the master finished speaking, Shanshan couldn't wait to drag Wen Jiahe to the shade of a tree to hide from the sun. The two sat under the shade of the tree and looked at the rocks together to practice archery.
He practiced with General Wen for a while and made rapid progress.
The sun was shining in the sky, and sweat flowed from his forehead, flowing between his eyebrows, and dripping along the contours of his face. After a while, the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat. Stone didn't even move his feet, and his movements didn't pause at all. He took out the sharp arrows from the quiver as if he was tireless and shot them out one by one. The arrow target not far away was already filled with sharp arrows.
Just looking at Shanshan feels hard.
"My dad said he worked very hard." Wen Jiahe said, "He also made rapid progress. My dad said he has outstanding talent and will be even better than him in the future."
Shanshan said happily: "Brother Shitou will also be a general in the future."
Wen Jiahe added: "But I think my father is the most powerful. Even if he is a general, he is the most powerful one."
Shanshan nodded.
Maybe she had just exercised and rested for a while. Not long after, her stomach growled.
The weather has been getting hotter and hotter these days, almost frying everyone, and everyone's appetite has been affected, and Shanshan is no exception. She used to eat all the lunch delivered to her every day, but now she still has half of it left.
But her mother prepared another snack for her and told her to fill her stomach when she was hungry.
At this moment, Shanshan touched his belly and immediately remembered the snacks in his book bag.
She sat up and said, "Jiahe, do you want some snacks?"
Wen Jiahe shook his head.
"Then I'll go by myself."
Shanshan spoke to her and sneaked out of the riding and shooting class venue while the master was not paying attention. The classroom was empty, so she took out snacks from her book bag and ran back quickly. After a while, the master didn't notice her sneaking out.
She shared the snacks with the other children, and when Shi Shi finished practicing, the remaining snacks fell into his stomach.
After the riding and archery class, there is Master Liu’s class.
The cicadas were chirping, and the heat of the day was gradually fading away. Liu Fuzi's reading voice was flat and boring, as if it was hypnotic. Half of the children's heads were already lying on the desks, and Shanshan was no exception. It wasn't until the school bell rang and she hit her head heavily on the desk that she suddenly woke up.
Master Liu sighed, said school was over, and walked out first.
In an instant, the classroom that had been lifeless just now became lively. The children quickly packed their school bags, gathered their friends and went out together.
Shitou quickly packed his own and stood next to her.
Wen Jiahe also said: "Shanshan, hurry up!"
They made an appointment to go shopping together today.
Shanshan rubbed the red mark on her forehead, she responded, and quickly put everything on the desk into her book bag. She counted them one by one. I brought my textbooks, I brought my toys, and my money bag was also inside, so there was no shortage of anything. Shan Shan was just about to close his book bag when he saw a strange thing inside.
She took it out out of curiosity and found that it was a jade pendant, all green in color and transparent in texture.
Suddenly someone next to me shouted in panic: "Where is my jade pendant? Who saw the jade pendant my grandmother gave me?"
Immediately afterwards, another voice sounded: "Wen Shan, what is that in your hand?!"
Shanshan was startled, and all the children in the classroom looked this way.
"That's my jade pendant!" The child who lost the jade pendant ran over and took the jade pendant in Shanshan's hand. He turned it over and over to confirm, and said firmly: "Yes, it's mine."
Qi Qing asked: "Wen Shan, why is Qiao Mingxuan's jade pendant here with you?"
Shan Shan was stunned.
She sat in her seat, met everyone's eyes blankly, and said blankly: "I don't know..."
Qi Qing added: "You couldn't have stolen Qiao Mingxuan's jade pendant, right?"
Wen Jiahe immediately said: "Qi Qing, don't talk nonsense!"
Qi Qing snorted: "If she hadn't stolen it, how could Qiao Mingxuan's jade pendant have ended up in her book bag? It's impossible for Qiao Mingxuan to put it in by himself."
That's even more impossible.
The children in his class all know how much Qiao Mingxuan treasures his jade pendant. It was a relic left to him by his late grandmother, and he would not let anyone touch it. It was because he had changed his clothes during the riding and shooting class that he took them off because he was afraid of being bumped. There was no way he was joking about this.
"I saw it." Suddenly, a weak voice sounded. Everyone followed the sound and saw that it was an inconspicuous classmate in the class. With everyone watching, he swallowed nervously before continuing: "During the riding and shooting class, Wen Shan sneaked out."
Qi Qing: "Maybe she stole it at that time!"
Wen Jiahe immediately said: "She was going back to get some snacks. There is no way Shanshan would do such a thing."
"Who knows this?" Qi Qing said boldly: "She ran out alone, and you didn't see it with your own eyes. Master taught us not long ago that you can know people but not their hearts."
The children looked at each other.
They also know this. They also sat together under the shade of a tree and shared the snacks Shanshan had brought back.
They usually have a good relationship with Wen Shan, and they don't want to believe this. Qiao Mingxuan's jade pendant was close to his body, but he only took it off at that moment. The classroom was usually full of people, but it was empty only at that moment. The jade pendant was found in Wen Shan's book bag.
The children's heads couldn't sort out these clues, and someone shouted: "Go and call Master!"
Soon someone ran out.
Shi Shi took a step forward and stood in front of Shan Shan, blocking the eyes of others.
Shanshan's head was buzzing. She clutched the shoulder strap of her book bag tightly and opened her mouth to explain herself, but she didn't know what to say. Even she herself couldn't explain why the jade pendant ended up in her book bag.
Shanshan looked at everyone in panic, and many people looked at her with suspicion.
Shanshan has never encountered such a thing.
She could only defend herself in a low voice: "I didn't steal..."
Her mother had taught her since she was a child that she could not steal or rob, or do things that went against her conscience. She always listened to her mother and never did anything bad.
Shanshan burst into tears: "I won't steal anything!"
Qi Qing said from the side: "There has never been a thief in our school. For a bad student like you, when the master comes, he will definitely kick you out of the school!"
Get kicked out of school!
boom!
It was like a thunderbolt hitting Shanshan's head, making her completely stunned!
