Listening to Mrs. Ying's words, the princess also frowned slightly, "It is indeed a bit outrageous. He actually ignored his wife for the sake of an outside wife."
With the princess's approval, Mrs. Ying immediately gained confidence and begged in a sad tone,
"Princess, you must make the decision for Zhu'er. If people think that the girls in our county and prince's palace are easy to bully, then the girls who get married in the future will not have a good life in their husband's family."
Mrs. Ying's words were meant to involve all the girls in Prince Anjun's palace, but they were still irrefutable. Those ladies and concubines who had daughters were also worried because of Mrs. Ying's words.
[He is also a wise man.]Su Ningxin commented secretly, but she didn't intend to get involved. She didn't know anything when she first arrived, so naturally it was better to keep a low profile.
Faced with Mrs. Ying's seemingly reasonable request, the princess did not immediately agree. She just said, "This matter is indeed the Meng family's fault. I will ask the Meng family's wife to come to the house to talk about it someday."
Seeing that the princess did not intend to stand up for Chu Qingzhu forcefully, Mrs. Ying felt a little unwilling, but she did not dare to say anything more and could only sit back sadly.
While they were talking, Su Ningxin's focus was on Chu Qingzhu. She had been lowering her head and wiping her tears with a handkerchief, but when she heard the princess saying that Mrs. Meng would talk, her voice suddenly stopped. For a moment, when no one was paying attention, he continued to sob quietly.
[It seems that there is an inside story, and presumably, as the eldest daughter of Prince An and there is no legitimate daughter in the house, Chu Qingzhu's character should not be submissive.]
[It is estimated that the princess has some understanding of their characters and knows that there is little truth in their words, so she will not easily agree to their requests.]
Su Ningxin analyzed the current situation boredly. In fact, it had nothing to do with her. She just had nothing to do but sit here and find something to do for herself.
Not long after, Su Ningxin saw Xiao An's figure when she looked at the door. She probably had something to report to her.
After seeing that the princess was still looking at the account book and listening to the reports of the servants in the palace, without paying attention to herself, Su Ningxin winked at the red candle next to the princess, then quietly got up and walked out from behind.
Most of the concubines here don't know how to manage accounts, and they were confused when hearing the servants' reports, but they didn't dare to leave due to the majesty of the princess.
Therefore, they all saw Su Ningxin's departure. They had different thoughts about the Crown Princess, but they did not dare to say anything at this time.
Su Ningxin naturally felt the gaze of others, but she didn't care. The only person in this backyard worthy of her attention was the princess.
Although those concubines were considered masters, if they wanted to have support from their natal family after getting married, they could only fawn over her. If they were not sisters with whom Chu Jihan had an excellent relationship, she wouldn't have to care.
As for those concubines who are only half masters, that is, half slaves, she doesn't need to take them seriously.
After walking out of the door and taking Xiao An a few steps further to a secluded place, Su Ningxin said, "What's the matter?"
Xiao An looked around cautiously and looked around, then said, "Girl, the yard is almost ready, but I don't know where to put the things in Eunuch Xia's hands. Let me ask for your instructions."
Su Ningxin showed a surprised expression. Because of Xia Mutou's special status, she had always kept a low profile and was not noticeable in the team. She happened to have some things that she couldn't put in public, so she asked him to keep them.
What he placed there were some of his own weapons, a large number of poison antidotes, and most importantly, things that could be used by Yi Rong. If these things were seen by people from the Prince's Palace, it would be difficult to explain, so it was better to hide them.
Now Xia Mumu went to help decorate her yard, but after all, she and Chu Jihan lived in the yard. It was impossible to hide things in the boudoir without anyone noticing like before.
Su Ning thought for a moment and asked, "Who are there in Chu Jihan's yard?"
Xiao An was prepared for this question and immediately answered, "There are very few people in the prince's yard. Only the young servant Liansheng always follows the prince to serve him. The others are two women who do menial work. There are no other people." .”
After speaking, Xiao An emphasized, "There is not a single maid."
Su Ningxin rolled her eyes in her heart, knowing that Xiao An had misunderstood. She was not asking about this, but there was no need to forcefully explain.
But this is good news. It will be more convenient for her if there are fewer people. There is naturally a difference between arranging her own manpower and using someone else's.
Thinking about it, we can actually understand that Chu Jihan hid his identity as a secret guard, and usually used to be seriously ill to hide the fact that he was often away from Prince Anjun's palace. Naturally, he would not let too many people around him, and there would be too many people talking. It's always easy to leak information.
After thinking about it, Su Ningxin said, "Find a hidden corner in the bedroom to put it first, let Shuangbai and the others keep it in check so that no one can come in, and then check to see if there are any vacant rooms in the yard, and arrange a small Buddhist hall for me." come out."
When she was in the Su Mansion, Su Ningxin had built a Buddhist temple to hide her from others. Now that there were more people watching her at the Prince's Mansion, it was naturally better to build such a Buddhist temple.
Not to mention that you can find a place to hide things. If you encounter something in the future, it will give yourself a good excuse to shirk it.
After explaining to Xiao An, Su Ningxin returned to the back hall. When she appeared, she attracted a lot of attention. However, one of them was strange. His eyes did not fall on Su Ningxin, but looked behind her, as if Looking for something.
At this time, the princess also looked at Su Ningxin. After she sat down, she put down her account book and asked gently, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Su Ningxin said in a friendly manner, like a normal chat, "It's nothing serious. It's just that the maid came back to report that she didn't know how to place some items. I brought fewer servants, and they are all a bit busy."
Before the princess could speak, Chu Qingzhu, who was sitting below, said, "If the Crown Princess is short of manpower, why not send a few from me?"
Su Ningxin rolled her eyes secretly in her heart, "Looks like her mother is quite scheming, but this big girl doesn't look very smart. For a moment, I couldn't guess what her motives were."]
It's no wonder that Su Ningxin thinks this way. If Chu Qingzhu wants to please her new sister-in-law, then her behavior of obviously inserting people into other people's yards is completely enmity.
If she was really setting up her spy, then this method was too stupid, and Su Ning couldn't help but feel ashamed.
And she interrupted before the princess could speak. Was she afraid that the princess would find her too pleasing to her eyes? Not to mention that one of her married daughters actually took the initiative to assign someone to her sister-in-law. Was she just ignoring the princess
To sum up, Su Ningxin suddenly felt that with her IQ and EQ, it was understandable that as a head wife she couldn't even manage an extramarital affair.
