After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother

"Okay, since you are so willing, I will help you, but you have to agree to one condition of mine." Qian Liuniang looked at Wen Zhimiao with a smile.

Wen Zhimiao tilted his head slightly: "It's not okay to kill people and violate the law."

Qian Liuniang smiled and said, "Sister, we are very disciplined and will not break the law."

"That's good." Wen Zhimiao nodded seriously.

At this moment, the three of them had reached the fifth floor. There was no one else on the corridor on the fifth floor except the three of them.

"Then what does Sixth Sister want me to do?" Wen Zhimiao asked seriously.

"My little sister is going to Yunjing to take the imperial examination next year. Please take good care of her then."

When Wen Zhimiao heard that, he suddenly found it a little unbelievable.

A law-breaking person said to her, “My sister wants to take the civil service exam. Please take care of her when the time comes.”

"Cheng, what are the names of Sixth Sister and Sister?" Wen Zhimiao asked curiously.

"Qian Mengze." Qian Liuniang said truthfully.

"With such a big gambling house at home and six older sisters, shouldn't you be very happy? If it were me, I wouldn't go to school." Wen Zhimiao said in confusion.

Qian Liuniang laughed and said, "She has her own ideas. She was different from the rest of us since she was little. She started to hold books all day when she was four or five years old."

Wen Zhimiao nodded: "Sure, please come and have dinner with me when I wake up."

She is quite outgoing.

Qian Liuniang shook her head: "She might be shy and doesn't like to see people. I'll ask her if she wants to come with us."

Wen Zhimiao stretched and yawned sleepily: "Okay."

"No more talking. I'm really sleepy. I need to take a shower and go to bed."

Qian Liuniang arranged rooms for the two of them, and Duan Jiling's room was next to Wen Zhimiao's.

Wen Zhimiao took a comfortable flower petal bath. She really didn't want to wash her hair, so she changed her clothes and fell asleep.

Chu Qiu was also in Wen Zhimiao's room. Wen Zhimiao asked her to take a shower and then lie down on the couch.

After a night of sleep, she was really sleepy.

By the time Chu Qiu had tidied himself up, Wen Zhimiao had already fallen asleep.

In the next room, Duan Jiling saw an old man and a woman in a blue-black robe sitting together in the room.

The old woman's face was full of wrinkles and she was leaning on a cane with a snake spitting out its tongue on the top.

When Duan Jiling saw the old woman, he bowed slightly to her and said, "Elder."

The old woman who was supported by the old lady put down the teacup in her hand and nodded slightly to her: "Master, you are welcome. Please sit down."

Then Duan Jiling looked at the young woman again.

"Sister Feng Qing."

The woman she called Feng Qing smiled at her gently and said, "It's been a few years since we last met. Lingling has grown so tall now."

Duan Jiling smiled shyly.

Then Duan Jiling sat opposite her and looked at the old elder curiously: "Why is the elder here?"

"Send a batch of medicinal materials."

"Oh, why is Sister Feng Qing here too?" Duan Jiling was indeed curious. She hadn't seen this cousin for many years. She only knew that she was always doing business outside.

"This time I followed the Lu Jin Kingdom's caravan to the Central Plains to trade, and I came back for a while." Feng Qing said with a smile.

Duan Jiling probably guessed who the Duan family's big customers have always been.

I'm afraid it's Lu Jin and Bei Rong.

Duan Jiling collected his thoughts and smiled harmlessly: "How long do you plan to stay at home this time, Sister Feng Qing?"

"Let's see. It's not certain yet." Feng Qing smiled.

"Well, unfortunately I'm not home lately."

"Lingling has to build a good relationship with the young prince Tianqi, so we can't be careless." Feng Qing said with a smile.

Duan Jiling was shocked that Feng Qing also knew about this.

She instinctively looked towards the old elder.

"According to the plan, you were supposed to poison the young prince. Why didn't you do it?" The old elder questioned Duan Jiling.

Duan Jiling was not panicked at all.

"Elder, do you think that we can revive the Duan family better by building a good relationship with His Highness Yuan Zhao, or will we be more successful by cooperating with the Wen family or the Su family?" Duan Jiling asked slowly.

After she asked the question, the old elder fell silent.

Duan Jiling chuckled: "Lingling thinks that a future emperor has more say than the Su family or the Wen family. What do you think, elder?"

"Don't miss the important thing. You have to understand that if we can succeed this time, you will be the Queen of the Southern Kingdom in the future." The old elder stared at her seriously.

Duan Jiling nodded sensibly: "Elder, Lingling understands."

"It's just that Lingling feels that with the current emperor's favoritism towards His Highness Yuan Zhao, it's still unclear who will take the throne. Poisoning her as originally planned is not a good idea. If she dies, Su Jincheng and Wen Ke will no longer have a common enemy, and they may not necessarily help us."

Elder Lao nodded and said, "You are a smart child. There are too many fools among the old guys in the Elder Council. Fortunately, you have your own ideas. I was not there at the last Elder Council, and they made such a stupid decision. The Duan family will be destroyed in their hands sooner or later."

Duan Jiling smiled obediently: "Lingling thanks the elder for his support."

Duan Jiling was indeed very happy to be recognized by the old elder.

"The second wife of the Qian family said that you played at the gambling table all night last night?" The old elder turned her head again and looked at Duan Jiling with a serious face.

Duan Jiling sat up straight immediately: "His Highness Yuan Zhao wants to play, and I can't leave in the middle of it."

If Wen Zhimiao heard what she said, she would jump up and refute even if she was asleep. Who on earth refused to stop? She was so sleepy!

"Don't get addicted to the gambling table."

"I know that gamblers have nothing." Duan Jiling said in a low voice.

Feng Qing couldn't help but laugh: "That's true, who told you that?"

She had some understanding of this little cousin. Although she was sometimes eccentric, she was actually a good child. She was being trained to be the next head of the family since she was young, and she would never do anything that was not allowed by the Elders' Council.

"The young prince said so." Duan Jiling did not hide it.

"It seems that this young prince is an interesting person." Feng Qing said with a smile.

When Duan Jiling heard her mention Wen Zhimiao, her eyes suddenly brightened: "Yeah, very cute."

The old elder looked at her seriously and said, "I want you to gain her trust, not to make friends with her."

"And what about your own body? Don't you know? Do you still want to live after playing like this all night long?"

Duan Jiling lowered his head and immediately began to admit his mistake: "Elder, I was wrong. I won't do it again."

Those light grey eyes were somewhat flattering.

The old elder sighed and took out a medicine bottle from her bosom: "This is the medicine for this month. Take one pill a day. Don't miss one. Otherwise, the poison will take effect and you may die at any time."

Duan Jiling nodded obediently: "Elder, I understand."

Then Duan Jiling asked in a low voice: "Elder, when can I see my mother again?"

The other party looked at him and sighed deeply: "Let's talk about it later."

"Okay, take a good rest and don't play like this anymore."

After saying that, Elder A and Feng Qing stood up at the same time. The door to another room opened, and the two walked into that room, and then the door closed again.

Duan Jiling stood alone in the room, looking at the medicine bottle in his hand and sighed softly.

In fact, her eyes were not born gray.
