The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 458 Arrogance (3rd)

The verdict on King Ning came down in September. He was deposed as a prince and demoted to a commoner, but he was exempted from exile. He found a mansion outside the capital, which was regarded as confinement in disguise.

This is the result of Empress Dowager Zhuang's kindness. If grandpa Zhuang Taifu really misses him, he can still visit him from time to time.

If Master Zhuang still does not give up at this point and wants to continue to incite King Ning, the hidden guards sent by Empress Dowager Zhuang will not show mercy.

Since ancient times, the prince has been demoted, and the family members of the mansion have not been spared. However, what is surprising is that King Ning actually gave Concubine Ning a letter of reconciliation.

He Lishu was sent by King Ning to King Rui and his wife.

King Rui is an old man, he doesn't know how to speak to Princess Ning, let alone how to comfort her.

Princess Rui simply asked him to wait outside and talk to his sister-in-law by herself.

"Sister-in-law."

She entered the house.

Princess Ning was sitting by the window reading a book.

Sister-in-law has the habit of reading, and Princess Rui is no stranger to it. She thought that sister-in-law might be in a bad mood at the moment, so she didn't dare to rush over as usual, but stood quietly at the door waiting for sister-in-law's response.

Concubine Ning's reaction today was a bit slow, she turned her head after a while, and she was not too surprised when she saw that it was Concubine Rui, and said: "You are here, come and sit down."

Princess Rui went to sit opposite Princess Ning.

It's been a long time since anyone came to serve tea.

Concubine Ning realized something, and laughed at herself: "I forgot that all the servants in the house have been dismissed." She said, and she personally picked up the teapot to pour tea for Concubine Rui.

"Let me come, sister-in-law!" Princess Rui hurriedly stood up, going to take the teapot in her hand.

"No need, I can still pour a cup of tea." Princess Ning pushed her hand away, and poured a cup of tea for Princess Rui, "Forget it, don't drink it, it's cold."

"It's okay, sister-in-law." Princess Rui blocked Princess Ning's hand coming to take her cup, "I don't like hot drinks."

It's not words to comfort Princess Ning, it's because she did become afraid of heat after she became pregnant, but the nuns in the house forbade her to drink cold drinks, King Rui would occasionally secretly give her a few sips to satisfy her cravings.

"Some things are really God's will." Princess Ning smiled bitterly, and withdrew her hand.

Princess Rui was cold for a moment and realized that she was referring to pregnancy. Since Princess Ning was pregnant with her first child, she has paid special attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation in strict accordance with the requirements of the imperial doctor and nuns.

But in the end, none of the three children was kept.

"Sister-in-law,

The child's matter...is it related to the eldest brother? "Princess Rui already knew everything. She didn't even have the strength to scold Wen Linlang. She never expected that her elder brother would be such a person and would do such a thing.

King Rui was also surprised.

He locked himself in the study for three days and three nights, and he was hit no less than the prince.

Everyone has a belief in their hearts, and there is no doubt that King Ning is the belief of King Rui.

Now, that belief has collapsed.

Concubine Ning shook her head: "If what you're talking about means that he drugged me to cause my tire to slip, that's not true, it's just..."

Princess Rui almost guessed what happened next, but she already knew about Prince Ning and Wen Linlang. She endured their relationship while she was pregnant, and her intense depression eventually led to premature delivery.

"Sister-in-law, don't be sad, you are still young, and you still have a long way to go." Princess Rui took out a piece of paper and a book from her wide sleeve, handed it to Princess Ning, and said, "This is what elder brother asked us to give to sister-in-law." Sister-in-law signed and pledged it, and since then she is no longer Concubine Ning, so she doesn't have to be implicated with him."

Speaking of this, Princess Rui felt complicated.

She felt that her eldest brother had really done something wrong, but she was impressed by the freedom of his sister-in-law.

The eldest brother actually has a sister-in-law in his heart, but he has been blinded by hatred and interests, and has been unable to see his own heart clearly.

He thought he was just showing respect to his sister-in-law, but he didn't know that this person had already walked into the depths of his heart.

On the contrary, Wen Linlang's woman was just the unwillingness that my elder brother asked for when he was young, and it was a proof that he controlled his desire to conquer.

Concubine Ning looked at the folded Heli book, and did not open it immediately, but smiled lightly and said, "Qianqian, do you know? I was attracted by his appearance and demeanor the first time I saw him at the age of thirteen. I have loved this man for eleven years. He loves women who are full of poetry and bookishness. No matter how much I hate reading books, I always act in the way he likes. I also thought to myself that I can't catch up with Wen Linlang in appearance Yes, at least I'm just learning, I'll work harder and not lose too much to her."

Princess Rui said angrily: "Sister-in-law, that woman is not worthy to be compared with sister-in-law!"

"It's meaningless to talk about it now." Princess Ning smiled and said to Princess Rui, "Don't call me sister-in-law anymore, I am no longer a member of the royal family."

It has nothing to do with He Lishu, but Qin Chuhan is no longer the prince.

"Sister-in-law..." Princess Rui couldn't hold back, and called out again.

Concubine Ning, to be precise, should be called Chu Yue.

Chu Yue said to Princess Rui: "Go back, it's bad luck here."

Princess Rui looked at her distressedly: "Father said you can stay longer."

Chu Yue smiled nonchalantly: "It's not that I have nowhere to go."

Princess Rui opened her mouth: "Sister-in-law... no, sister Chu... ah, no, I don't want to call your sister-in-law so awkward."

Chu Yue said: "Then call it, Zuo is just a title."

"Why don't you move to Prince Rui's mansion?" Princess Rui suggested.

On the way here, she mentioned this matter to King Rui, and King Rui had no objection at all.

But King Rui actually guessed that Chu Yue would not agree, so he didn't say it in front of his wife, worried that she would think him stingy.

Chu Yue shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, I have a place to go. Ah, by the way, you came just in time. Miss Gu visited me last time and left something with me. Please help me return it to her."

"it is good."

Coming out of the room, Princess Rui's eyes were red.

King Rui felt distressed, but he didn't know how to persuade him.

He was hit hard, but luckily Qianqian and the child in her womb were by his side, otherwise he might really not know how to hold on.

The two went to the medical clinic, and Princess Rui handed over the brocade box that Chu Yue asked Princess Rui to carry to Gu Jiao.

"Sister-in-law said that you accidentally left it behind when you saw her last time."

Gu Jiao understood: "Understood, thank you."

After the two left, Gu Jiao opened the brocade box.

Lying inside is a gold medal for avoiding death.

About King Ning, Gu Jiao made the worst plan. She gave the gold medal for avoiding death to Princess Ning in the hope of saving her from the vortex.

Of course, Gu Jiao also thought that Princess Ning might use this token to protect King Ning.

In the end, she chose neither path.

No one knows whether Princess Ning signed or left the letter. She also disappeared from the capital the day after King Ning was imprisoned.

...

"Let me go! Let me go! I want to see the prince!"

"Still want to see the prince? Gag her for me!"

When Eunuch Su gave an order, two powerful nuns immediately pinned Wen Linlang to the ground, and gagged her mouth with cloth strips.

She could no longer cry out, only a faint whine.

Eunuch Su raised his whisk and said: "The queen has ordered that the crown princess suffers from a serious illness and immediately goes to the palace to recuperate."

Wen Linlang shook her head desperately.

She is not sick!

She doesn't want to go to the palace to recuperate!

Everyone knows what the end of recuperation will be!

In less than a year and a half, she will die of a serious illness in the palace!

Empress Xiao tried her best to cover up the crown prince's ugliness. King Ning had just been deposed, and at this juncture, the crown prince would be punished with some kind of crime, which would easily make people daydream.

Only the reasons for recuperation are seamless.

Wen Linlang was rudely dragged onto the carriage.

The moment he was about to leave the palace, Gu Jiao also came out of the palace. Eunuch Su and others hurriedly saluted Gu Jiao respectfully: "Doctor Gu!"

Wen Linlang was pinned down on the ground in embarrassment, where is the glory of the past?

She stared at Gu Jiao fiercely.

Are you satisfied?

Ruined everything I managed carefully, your goal has been achieved!

However, Gu Jiao just glanced at her indifferently and recognized her, but there was no wave of complacency in her eyes.

She looked at her calmly, as if she was looking at an irrelevant passer-by, even the little details that angered Gu Jiao in the past seemed to have been forgotten by Gu Jiao.

It was at this moment that Wen Linlang realized in a trance that Gu Jiao was not pretending to be lofty, but that she really never cared about herself.

This didn't come from Gu Jiao's kindness and tolerance, it was simply that she fell into Gu Jiao's eyes.

Gu Jiao has already stood at a height that she can't reach, like a hero looking at the sky, how can she pay attention to whether there are any small insects under her feet that are stinging her?

This metaphor is actually a bit exaggerated, but Gu Jiao really didn't care about Wen Linlang.

Wen Linlang didn't understand, how was she worse than Gu Jiao?

Apart from her ignorance of medical skills, what else did she lose to Gu Jiao?

Not to mention that she is beautiful, but Gu Jiao has such an unsightly face...

Isn't Gu Jiao not shy at all?

The way Gu Jiao walked out of the palace frankly, not only was she not shy, but a little - arrogant.
