The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne
Chapter 30: Angry but Unable to Speak
Helian walked in Shangguan Mansion, her steps getting faster and faster, and it was only after the nanny behind her reminded her that she slowed down.
She looked around, making sure there was no one around, then turned around and looked at the mother and daughter.
This look made him want to poke a hole in the mother and daughter.
"Princess, please send everyone away. I have something to report to you alone." Concubine Wan said cautiously.
Helian took a deep breath to stay rational and waved his hand.
The maid beside her stepped back.
"Go ahead!" Helian asked impatiently.
Concubine Wan quickly apologized: "Princess, all of this is the conspiracy of that little bitch Lu Jingning. You must not be fooled. Lu Jingning hooked up with Bu Yan a long time ago, and now you are pregnant with Bu Yan's child. Bu Yan is behind Lu Jingning and deliberately targeting us."
Helian's eyes deepened slightly: "You just said that Aning is pregnant with Bu Yan's child?"
"Yes!" Concubine Wan assured confidently: "Lu Jingning returned to Shangguan Mansion this time to take the opportunity to get rid of the child."
"Mother, everything my mother said is true. Lu Jingning deliberately plotted against our Shenjunwang Mansion. I had no idea about the medicine from Liulizhai."
Lu Jinglang opened his mouth and pushed these things onto Lu Jingning. She sniffed and said aggrievedly: "How dare a daughter go against her mother's wishes and bring discredit to the Shenjunwang Mansion."
Helian considered that the two were usually cautious and prudent, and did not cause trouble, so the anger on her face subsided a little, and she said to Concubine Wan: "How are you doing with the things I asked you to do? Don't blame me for not reminding you, the prince is on his way back."
When mentioning Prince Shen, Concubine Wan couldn't help but reveal a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Thank you for reminding me, Princess. I know." Concubine Wan gritted her teeth and whispered, "I will definitely regain the trust of the Crown Princess and will never let you down."
Helian thought of Lu Jingning, her eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed: "This girl is indeed like a different person. It is a good thing to destroy her and make Shangguan sad and tormented. And this Bu Yan is always against the Shen County Prince's Mansion. It is also a good thing for the County Prince's Mansion to bring him down."
"Don't worry, mother. I will do everything I can to destroy Lu Jingning and Bu Yan." Lu Jinglang raised his hand and promised, "In a few days it will be the old lady's birthday. When the guests gather, I will expose this matter and make Lu Jingning lose his reputation. Bu Yan's seduction of the royal princess is even more serious. His position as Jingzhao Yin will definitely be unstable."
Lu Jinglang reached out and plucked the hairpin from his temples, and held it high up: "Mother, I will dress up and attend the event, so that everyone will know that your heart is kind and you are not like the rumors say."
At this time, Helian's anger had completely disappeared. She looked down at the well-behaved Lu Jinglang and said in a condescending tone: "Well, since this hairpin is on your head, I will give it to you."
"My daughter is terrified..."
"Thank you, Princess." Concubine Wan stopped Lu Jinglang from speaking and kowtowed to express her gratitude.
Lu Jinglang also came back to his senses. Her behavior just now was too petty, as if she had never seen a good thing before. It would only make Princess Shen even more unhappy.
"Thank you mother for the reward." Lu Jinglang kowtowed again to express her gratitude.
Helian waved her hands impatiently and told the mother and daughter: "I will trust you this time. If you can turn the tide and restore the reputation of Prince Shen's Mansion at the birthday banquet, don't blame me for being ruthless. As for the matter of the Liulizhai banknotes this time..."
Helian naturally felt bad for paying out 10,000 taels of silver for nothing, as this was her personal money, so she said to Lu Jinglang, "This money will be deducted from your future dowry.
After saying this, without waiting for the two to react, Helian walked away from Shangguan Mansion.
After the people left, Lu Jinglang was very angry. He stood up with the help of the maid. He immediately wanted to find Lu Jingning to fight him, but was stopped by Concubine Wan.
"Mother, that bitch Lu Jingning has ruined our daughter so much." Lu Jinglang was furious. She was a concubine's daughter and her future dowry would be limited. Ten thousand taels were deducted for nothing. How much would be left?
She was extremely unlucky during this period. She drank the wrong medicine and became unable to get pregnant. She was also whipped by Helian, which damaged her reputation.
How can she bear it?
Concubine Wan grabbed Lu Jinglang's wrist tightly and said in a deep voice: "If you make a scene, we may not be able to stay in Shangguan Mansion. What if we can't even attend the old lady's birthday party? How can we turn things around? Be patient and don't ruin our plan."
Hearing this, Lu Jinglang clenched her fists, her fingertips digging into her palms, the pain forced her to calm down.
When the two of them returned, Lu Jingning was not surprised at all. Helian would never take them away. She glanced at Old Madam Shangguan.
The old lady was surprised and asked with concern: "Didn't the Princess of the County say that she would take you two back home?"
Concubine Wan stepped forward with a smile and said, "My sister is too sick, how can I go back? Fortunately, the Princess of the County is very understanding and allowed me to stay for a while. Mother's birthday banquet will be held in a few days. I will see if there is anyone in the mansion who can help."
In the past, the old lady would be pleased to hear this, but now, she couldn't laugh.
Because what Concubine Wan said was almost the same as what Lu Jingning said.
Half an hour ago, Lu Jingning categorically assured Concubine Wan and Lu Jinglang that they would not leave the house easily this time, and would stay under the pretext of taking care of Shangguan and helping with the birthday banquet.
The old lady forced a smile, picked up the tea and brought it to her mouth to hide the doubt in her eyes.
"Aning, this is all a misunderstanding, don't take it to heart. You were just trying to get medicine for Sister Lang with good intentions. If you want to blame someone, blame the people in Liulizhai for being unkind." Concubine Wan took the initiative to step forward and found an excuse for Lu Jingning, without any anger on her face.
Lu Jingning smiled slightly: "I'm glad that Sister Lang is not angry."
"How could that be?" Concubine Wan winked at Lu Jinglang and motioned him to come forward. Lu Jinglang suppressed his hatred, smiled and said to Lu Jingning: "Sister Ning is so kind, how could I let her down? We sisters shouldn't have a rift over such a small matter."
Seeing that the mother and daughter clearly hated him but still gritted their teeth to apologize to him, Lu Jingning's smile became even more pronounced.
"I'm glad you don't mind. By the way, Sister Lang sent her maid to ask me for scar removal medicine today. I'll send someone to buy it now."
Lu Jingning turned around and was about to tell the maid, but was stopped by Concubine Wan. Having been cheated once before, Concubine Wan became even more cautious: "Sister Lang's injury has almost healed. I still have half a bottle, which is enough. You don't need to ask for more in the future."
Lu Jinglang felt pain in his heart just thinking about it. If he had known earlier, he would not have wasted so much ointment.
