The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

"As a concubine's sister, you really shouldn't interfere in your elder sister's marriage. You should come back and tell your father about this matter, and he will come forward to resolve it."

"Yes, father, I know I was wrong."

"But it's not right for Zi Ling to hit you just for this. Where is Zi Ling?"

"My sister hasn't come back yet."

"He hasn't come back yet. He must have encountered danger when he went out. Why don't you hurry back home? This child, someone, hurry out of the house to find the eldest lady." Shangguan Dong walked back and forth anxiously.

Shangguan Jiaoyun's nails dug into her flesh and she felt extremely jealous.

Shangguan Dong saw Shangguan Jiaoyun was still there, and said: "Lin Jian go to Han's house and ask Han the imperial physician for a box of Yufu ointment, and tell him that I will invite him to Xiangxiangxuan Restaurant for a drink when I take a day off next time."

"Yes"

Shangguan Jiaoyun was delighted. Her father had never looked at her straight in the eye before. But now, for her sake, he went to ask Imperial Physician Han to get the best Yu Fu Cream. So her tears today were not in vain.

"Go back and rest. When Lin Jian comes back, I'll have someone take him to your yard."

"Well, father, your daughter will go back soon. You should also rest more and don't get too tired."

Shangguan Dong nodded.

Shangguan Jiaoyun bowed and walked away leisurely.

Shangguan Ziling was returning slowly. As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the mansion, the servant ran over hurriedly and said, "The eldest lady is back. The master is worried about her safety and is sending people out to look for her."

Shangguan Ziling got off the carriage and said, "My father is back?"

"The master has just returned. Miss, please come into the house quickly. The master is worried about you."

Shangguan Ziling said "hmm" and strode in, lifting her skirt.

"Daddy, I'm back."

Shangguan Dong felt relieved when he heard the voice of his beloved daughter.

Looking at the person running towards him, he frowned and said, "You are so old, slow down, don't run, be careful not to fall, what kind of girl is as impatient as you?"

Shangguan Ziling ran to Shangguan Dong, took his arm and said, "Daddy."

Shangguan Dong felt very sweet in his heart. His daughter had not been so close to him for a long time. He looked her up and down, made sure she was okay, then put on a stern face and said, "Zi Ling, Jiao Yun is your sister after all. No matter whether she is wrong or not, you should not beat or scold your own sister."

Shangguan Ziling was stunned. It turned out that the white lotus sister came back to complain! However, what was wrong with his father? The original owner's memory told her that her cheap father usually disliked the white lotus sister. What was going on today?

"By the way, who was the person who saved you today?"

Shangguan Ziling let go of Shangguan Dong's arm, spread her hands and said: "He is wearing a mask, I don't know who he is."

Shangguan Dong frowned and said, "Your sister said that many people saw it from afar. Ziling, don't worry, Daddy won't let rumors spread and affect your reputation. Daddy will..."

Shangguan Ziling interrupted, "Dad, my reputation isn't that great anyway, I don't care, it doesn't matter, Dad, don't worry about it. By the way, I picked some peach blossom petals today. Tonight, I will personally make peach blossom soup for Dad and brother, okay?"

"You can make peach blossom soup?" Shangguan Dong asked in surprise.

"Yeah, by the way, where's my brother?"

"Your brother will be back late today. The Hanlin Academy is writing ancient books recently, so your brother is very busy recently."

"Oh"

"Master, Master!" a servant ran over in a panic.

"Why are you so flustered? What's the matter?"

The servant glanced at Shangguan Ziling, walked closer to Shangguan Dong, whispered a few words in Shangguan Dong's ear, then lowered his head and stood aside.

Shangguan Dong obeyed and his expression became uglier.

Shangguan Ziling knew without thinking that it was related to her. The way the servant looked at her just now clearly showed that it was related to her.

Shangguan Dong said earnestly: "Zi Ling, go back to your yard. If you have nothing to do these few days, don't go out. Learn the etiquette and rules in the mansion. You are not a child anymore. Don't wander out of the house all day long. Which young lady is like you, going out of the house all day long."

"Yes, Zi Ling knows."

"Go ahead".

Shangguan Dong was furious when he saw Shangguan Ziling leave. These people really didn't take him seriously and dared to make up stories about his precious daughter.

Shangguan Dong returned to the study, "Lin Dao"

"I'm here."

"Go and find out from whom the rumor came."

"Yes".

In the Regent's Palace, Mo Shaoxie came back from Xiangguo Temple and was lying on a rattan chair in the mansion's pond, fishing leisurely with a fishing rod.

Xiao Zijin and Le Wenshu walked in together.

Xiao Zijin came forward and said with a smile: "Your Highness is really leisurely."

Le Wenshu opened her folding fan, fanned herself, then sat on a chair nearby and looked at the pond.

"Your Highness, let me tell you an interesting story. Le Wenshu and I just came here and heard new rumors about that evil woman. That woman has more troubles than me."

Mo Shaoxie glared at him, and Xiao Zijin's body stiffened.

Mo Shaoxie threw down the fishing rod in his hand, took a sip of the tea beside him, and said lightly: "What rumors?"

"Ah? Oh, so it means that the evil woman was hugging and kissing the masked man in Xiangguo Temple, and it was unclear."

Mo Shaoxie spat out a mouthful of tea.

Le Wenshu rarely saw Mo Shaoxie lose his composure like this, so he looked at Mo Shaoxie curiously and said with a smile: "Could it be that the prince has something to do with this matter?"

Xiao Zijin looked at Le Wenshu in shock. Le Wenshu was always smart and he would not say such things for no reason. He then looked at Mo Shaoxie.

Mo Shaoxie restrained his previous loss of composure and said seriously: "If I'm not mistaken, the so-called masked man should be referring to me."

"What?" Xiao Zijin yelled.

Mo Shaoxie glanced at Xiao Zijin with a gloomy look, and Xiao Zijin immediately covered his mouth with his hands.

Le Wenshu said calmly: "The prince is with Miss Shangguan today, but now rumors are spreading in the capital, saying that Miss Shangguan has fallen in love with someone else, and is with a masked man at the foot of the Xiangguo Temple, they are in love with each other, hugging and cuddling each other, and will not marry anyone else but the prime minister, who disagrees, and they are about to elope."

"Hehe, I did want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage, but someone was not interested and rejected me."

"Ah..." Xiao Zijin was so frightened by Mo Shaoxie's cold eyes that she covered her mouth tightly and made no sound.

Not to mention Xiao Zijin's surprise, even Le Wenshu was surprised and asked, "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

"Of course, I have already decided on her. Tell me, what are some ways to pursue a woman?"

Xiao Zijin quickly said: "My Lord, I am good at chasing women!"

"Talk about it".

Xiao Zijin said with an expression of being very experienced: "As for this woman, first, you have to make her happy by giving her lots of gifts, such as jewelry and banknotes. In short, give her things she likes. Secondly, you should often ask her to go boating on the lake or go out for fun, so that the two of you can be alone together. After a while, she will naturally fall into your arms."
