Chapter 42 Nangong Min's Darkness(1/2)
On the second day, Li Jin came to the General's Mansion.
"younger sister!"
"Brother, you're here."
"Yeah, but I'll leave later."
"Um?"
"I received an imperial edict yesterday, and spring hunting is about to be around, so the emperor sent me to assist His Highness in the Crown Prince to arrange the hunting mountain to prevent any accidents."
"So that's the case, then okay."
Li Jin glanced at Nangong Jinse, sighed and said, "Actually, sister doesn't have to match me and the princess, I don't have any friendship with her."
Nangong Jinse: "I know, it's because the princess is too sad, so I want to help her. But now you have something to do, so let's talk about it later."
Li Jin: "Well, okay, then I'll leave first."
Nangong Jinse nodded. After Li Jin left, Nangong Jinse divorced and told Hao Lianyue that it would explain the whole story and that she could only make plans for her later.
Yuzhu brought tea in, but Li Jin had already left.
"Brother Li is leaving now?"
"Yeah, something is wrong."
"What should I do with the princess?"
"I can only find a way later."
Yu Yin also walked in: "Miss, we have been staring at Xia Qingshan these days, but he still has no contact with Nangong Min."
Yuzhu: "Is it possible that Aunt Liu lied to us?"
Nangong Jinse: "This is not necessarily true, but in that situation at that time, she had no reason to lie to us again."
Yuyin: "If it weren't for Aunt Liu's lying, it was because Nangong Min was too scheming and was cautious in doing things."
Nangong Jinse: "This matter has to be started with Xia Qingshan."
Yuyin: "Then we would secretly tie Xia Qingshan and force him to tell the truth."
Yuzhu: "I also think it's feasible."
Nangong Jinse: "Okay, tie him up tonight, and don't let him discover our identity."
"yes."
Shangshu Mansion.
Chu Hanyan was playing the piano a little irritably in her boudoir. She tried too hard and the strings were broken. Chu Hanyan pushed the piano hard and pushed it to the ground.
Cui'er walked in and picked up the piano.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? I've been losing my temper since I came back yesterday."
"It's not because of Brother Jing."
"Prince Jing? Isn't Prince Jing treating the lady all the time nicely?"
"Although this is true, there are always people who covet each other."
"What is Miss?"
"It's that Nangong Jinse!" Chu Hanyan said angrily.
Cui'er persuaded: "Actually, Miss, don't worry. Nangong Jinse and King Jing have only known each other for a few months, but how could the friendship between Miss and King Jing be easily destroyed after so many years?"
Hearing this, Chu Hanyan showed a shy smile on his face. This was true. Maybe he was thinking too much, and Brother Jing had already agreed to marry her as the princess.
"It will be spring hunting soon, and there will be a banquet at that time. Why not prepare well? Then, it will amazed everyone. Miss is the number one beauty in the Tiansheng Dynasty."
"That's right, I can't embarrass our Shangshu Mansion by then."
"yes."
Thinking of this, Chu Hanyan no longer thought about Nangong Jinse.
At night, Yuzhu and others secretly tied Xia Qingshan out.
Xia Qingshan looked at the men in black holding a knife in front of him and was trembling with fear. When did he offend anyone?
"Several uncles, please spare me. I didn't mess with you. I have been a good person all the time."
"If we want to save our lives, we will answer truthfully whatever we ask."
Xia Qingshan nodded quickly: "I must know everything."
"Very good, then I'll ask you, how many women in the general's mansion have had an affair?"
After hearing this, Xia Qingshan felt something was wrong. Could it be that the third lady knew and asked someone to take revenge on him?
"I haven't had an affair with anyone?" Xia Qingshan defended.
"Don't you admit it?" Nangong Jinse's tone was cold.
Xia Qingshan was frightened and said, "Acknowledge, there are only three. I know I was wrong. Please ask the third lady to give up her hands."
Miss Third, Nangong Jinse smiled faintly when she heard this, which was really interesting.
"I am not a third lady, so you don't have to worry that I will take revenge on you. As long as you tell me what you know, I will let you go."
Hearing this, Xia Qingshan took a deep breath and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.
"What do you want me to say?"
"I want to know what happened between you and Miss Three."
Xia Qingshan looked at the people in front of him with some surprise. Although the third lady once said that she could not reveal the matter between them to anyone, life is the most important thing now, so he has to say it now.
"The third lady lost her mother since childhood and has an introverted personality. I saw her pitiful at the time, so I kept playing with her."
"Later, we grew up slowly, and the feelings in our hearts gradually grew. We were still fine at the beginning."
"I also thought I had found the love of my life, but later I slowly realized that the third lady was distorted and possessive."
"She will get angry when she sees me saying something to any woman. Over time, I feel tired."
"Later, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had an affair with the maid in the mansion behind my back."
These words surprised Nangong Jinse. He didn't expect Nangong Min to be such a person.
"Then are you still together now?"
"I was there before, but since Aunt Wei's death, she has never looked for me."
"Then do you think she loves you?"
"I don't know, I just know that she seems to think I am her property, no one is allowed to touch it, only she can abuse and trample on her."
"So, she is so crazy about loving you? It seems that you will live in her shadow all your life."
Hearing this, Xia Qingshan was a little scared, thinking of Nangong Min's warnings that if she betrayed her, she would castrate him and lock him around her forever, just being loyal to her like a dog.
It's terrifying to think about it.
"I won't be at her mercy." Xia Qingshan said seriously.
"But she is a lady, and you are a servant, I'm afraid you can't help it?" Nangong Jinse said slowly.
When Xia Qingshan thought about this, he didn't know what to do.
"The only way is to get rid of her completely and make her give up."
Xia Qingshan looked at Nangong Jinse: "Do you have a way?"
"I have no choice, it's up to you."
"By my own? What does it mean?"
"It means you have to tell her clearly that you don't like her, you dislike her, and you have someone you like more."
"But if I say it, she won't let me go."
"Then you go find someone who can save you."
"Can you save me?" Xia Qingshan thought with a puzzled look on his face, who can save him?
His father? No. Although his father is a housekeeper, he is also a servant.
Who else is there in the mansion?
Looking at Xia Qingshan's embarrassed expression, Nangong Jinse thought that he could only tell him clearly.
"To be honest, we are the people around the eldest lady. If you want to save your life, go find the eldest lady."
"Miss!" Xia Qingshan looked at Nangong Jinse in surprise.
I was puzzled, how could the eldest lady know about him and the third lady? And what does it mean to come to him? Do you want to use his hand to get rid of the third lady?
Thinking of this, Xia Qingshan suddenly felt relieved. If this is the case, then he could take this opportunity to get rid of it. Wouldn't it be better?
"Are you really the lady's person?"
