Chapter 412: Yinyu
The steward's insistence did not cause displeasure among the people. Business has business, Zhen Baozhai can abide by this rule in front of the princess, but it makes people feel better.
In such a situation, the seventh princess is also not suitable for anger. Otherwise, she will use her power to oppress people and be unkind.
Zou Di was very relieved to see that things were at an impasse.
Jin Cancan looked at Su Zhaoning a little anxiously.
Su Zhaoning didn't directly reply to her any actions or verbal hints, just lowered his head and continued to eat the food at the banquet with Nan Minxing.
Seeing Su Zhaoning's indifferent behavior, Jin Cancan's worries were temporarily put down. She knew she couldn't go wrong with what she had arranged. But when she saw Su Zhenyi and Zou Di's expressions being too proud, she couldn't hold her breath.
These two people are really obviously slandering Mrs. Dingyuanhou. Jin Cancan was extremely glad that he went to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in advance.
The seventh princess is obviously not someone who will be restrained by a shopkeeper and a palace maid. She said to Zhen Bao Zhai: "Zhen Bao Zhai has been the leader in the Beijing jewelry workshop for several years, in addition to the custom jewelry is famous, the skill of repairing jewelry is not bad. I would like to pay a lot of money to ask the shopkeeper to invite the craftsman who repaired the jewelry to come and restore a piece of jewelry for me on the spot. ”
Instead of asking about things that are against business, the shopkeeper said calmly: "No, I will practice this skill, and I will ask the princess to take out the ornaments." ”
The seventh princess brought the jade buckle that the palace maid had broken earlier to the shopkeeper.
Everyone reacted immediately, and the seventh princess directly asked the shopkeeper about the customization of the jade buckle, and the shopkeeper would never say it. But now the owner of the jade buckle is already the seventh princess, she re-entrusted the shopkeeper to repair the jewelry, during which the problem of jewelry, want to come to the shopkeeper to know everything.
Zou Di had already thought of this, and looked at Su Zhenyi nervously.
Su Zhenyi has always been slightly inferior in mental skills. So she was still fearless.
Zou Di looked at Su Zhaoning with a weak heart.
Su Zhaoning happened to look up at her. Zou Di's panicked face was clearly printed in those eyes.
The seventh princess was asking the shopkeeper: "This jade buckle may be repaired without any traces?" ”
"It is impossible to completely restore jade without traces. If the princess is willing to polish off some of the corners or change the size, then it can be made in the form of gold and jade. The shopkeeper replied.
The seventh princess asked again: "Can the shopkeeper make me a piece of the same one again?" I'm in a hurry, do you have the same jade on hand? ”
Of course, the shopkeeper knew when this jade buckle was made. He also knew the intention of the Seventh Princess to ask this, but this question really couldn't be regarded as a violation of morality and commitment.
The shopkeeper had no choice but to answer truthfully: "There happens to be a piece, if you make a jade buckle of this size, it will not be a problem at all." ”
"Can it be the same texture?" The seventh princess made another request.
"It's not much the same." The shopkeeper replied.
"Then it seems that this jade buckle and the jade are originally one." The Seventh Princess concluded.
The shopkeeper did not connect.
But the crowd had understood. Since there is still any jade left over from this polished jade buckle, then either the texture of this jade is not usually liked by people, and Zhen Baozhai does not use it much. Either that, this jade buckle has only been made for a short time.
General Chen has been buried for a while.
Everyone looked at the jade buckle in the hand of the seventh princess, and their eyes became complicated.
Some ladies have attended the bazaar of the eldest princess of Chaoyang. At this time, they naturally remembered what had happened at the bazaar.
This Su San girl was abandoned by the Zhou family because she slandered Su Zhaoning and General Chen for having a personal relationship.
Only then did Su Zhenyi's pride fall into the eyes of more than one person. The truth of the matter is about to come out.
"Seven Emperor Sisters. Second imperial sister-in-law. ”
A voice came from far and near, only to see that today's other protagonist, the third prince, was late.
When Jin Cancan saw the third prince coming, his face suddenly became happy.
The third prince replied with a polite and detached smile, and then stood beside the seventh princess.
"Seventh Emperor Sister, what's wrong with this?" The third prince asked.
He came to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War today, naturally not for Jin Cancan's birthday. Mrs. Jin couldn't bear her daughter's pleas anymore, and it was impossible for her to really invite a prince over for her daughter's birthday banquet.
Moreover, this prince is still unmarried.
The third prince got a letter and came over. The letter said that there were things related to Chen Tianyang that would be revealed at this banquet.
The third prince was a thief, and after hesitating for a long time in the house, he still came over in person.
He also knew how misleading his appearance at this time was. Therefore, the third prince deliberately talked to the seventh princess at this moment, giving people the feeling that he was here for the seventh princess.
"Seventh Emperor Sister, you haven't been in the palace to see your mother for a long time, and your mother misses you." The third prince said.
When these words fell into the ears of others, they were led to the three princes coming here, probably on the orders of the queen, to find the seventh princess.
The seventh princess looked up at the three princes beside her and replied, "It's not that it's a favorite. It should be hatred in the heart. The palace maid beside me said, this is ironclad evidence that Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis and Tianyang have a personal relationship, Brother Sanhuang, what do you think? ”
Hearing Chen Tianyang's name, the third prince's heart couldn't help but tremble. After he killed Chen Tianyang, there was not a day when he couldn't sleep peacefully.
It's just that An Yi's words before her death made all the statements of the Nanyu people false and ridiculous. The third prince was very worried that the truth of Chen Tianyang's death would be dug up. Especially now that the second prince is in the limelight, the third prince doesn't want anyone to mention Chen Tianyang's matter again.
Coming here today, the three princes not only want to sabotage the death of Chen Tianyang mentioned by others, but also prepare to find out the initiator. He had to tell the other person to shut up.
The third prince looked at the seventh princess and asked, "I don't know which palace maid next to the imperial sister is so powerful, and she can know more than the imperial sister, you, the pillow person of General Chen?" ”
The third prince didn't think it was beneficial for him to pull down Su Zhaoning. The more Su Zhaoning was repeatedly mentioned, the more the third prince felt that someone was putting cold arrows on him in the dark.
Didn't An Yi use Su Zhaoning to prove that the people of Nanyu were lying all over again?
Hearing the words of the third prince, the kneeling palace maid shuddered.
I didn't expect that the master of her family didn't believe in this, and even the third prince didn't believe it.
You must know that the third prince is the one who gets along with the horse master the most before he dies.
If the third prince has nothing to do with the Standing Lady and the Marquis of Dingyuan, then he will be finished.
The palace maid took two steps on her knees, kowtowed to the seventh princess and said, "Princess, the slave maid is just this thing that she found when she was sorting out the old things of the horses." The slave doesn't know anything, the slave doesn't know anything. ”
The seven princesses didn't even bother to give each other a look. She casually threw the jade buckle to the ground, allowing the jade buckle that had been split in two to break and shatter again.
The attitude of the seventh princess is already very obvious.
Su Zhenyi was very unwilling. She picked up a piece of the jade buckle that had broken and bounced to her feet and walked to Su Zhaoning.
"Zhen Baozhai's shopkeeper said that this jade buckle can be repaired with gold and jade, doesn't the second sister repair it?" Su Zhenyi made her words clear.
Things have developed to this point, and Su Zhenyi is not willing to back down. She believed that the third prince only said that by selling the face of the seventh princess.
Su Zhenyi firmly believes that the third prince hopes that Su Zhaoning will be pulled down in his heart.
At this banquet today, Su Zhaoning was almost completely silent. Whether it was when the dirty water was splashed over, or when the seventh princess was questioning, she didn't directly defend herself.
Just when Su Zhenyi thought that she was still going to be silent, Su Zhaoning spoke.
"The third sister seems to care more about this jade buckle than any of us here?" Su Zhaoning asked rhetorically.
Su Zhenyi heard the sarcasm in Su Zhaoning's words, and she immediately fought back, not to be outdone: "Because I can't see the second sister looking like a chaste and fierce woman on the surface, but in fact she is filthy!" Since you have a heart for General Chen, you shouldn't have coveted the wealth of Dingyuan Houfu to marry the Hou Mansion in the first place. Since you have chosen the Marquis of Dingyuan Mansion first, you must guard the women's road well, instead of breaking the thread and killing General Chen! ”
The third prince's gaze immediately looked sharply at Su Zhenyi's side.
It turned out to be her! It's this woman who is doing the trouble!
Of course, the third prince knew who Su Zhenyi was. Su Jinxuan had come to beg himself many times for Su Zhenyi, and he also used his mother's face for Su Zhenyi.
It's just that this woman is really bold! When the third prince heard that the Zhou Mansion was discussing the matter of Zhou Ruoqian's marriage, he naturally understood that Cheng Su Zhenyi was a threat to his own failure.
Because her younger brother is an insider, this woman stupidly came to provoke herself, trying to rely on her knowledge to let herself handle the affairs of the Zhou Mansion for her.
It's stupid and poisonous! The third prince clenched his fists and took away the chill in his eyes, but in his heart, he had already moved to Su Zhenyi's killing intent.
A woman is not like Chen Tianyang, who needs him to bother to plan. When he leaves the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, he will take her life!
No matter what Su Zhenyi did today, whether or not Su Jinxuan meant it. The three princes will not sacrifice their own interests in order to entrap a person below. Even if this benefit is only the dignity of being a prince.
Su Zhenyi noticed that someone was looking at her, and she turned sideways slightly, just in time to meet the third prince's already flat gaze.
It seems that she anticipated the thoughts of the third prince.
Su Zhenyi was overjoyed, and continued to ask Su Zhaoning: "Even if you don't admit this jade buckle, you can't deny the matter of the duck sword spike." It was the duck sword spike you made with your own hands that killed General Chen! ”
Although there are some rumors in the secret that a duck sword spike took Chen Tianyang's life, the specific truth has not been spread.
Some of the efforts made by the three princes behind their backs today were all buried by Su Zhenyi's words.
The killing intent in his eyes flashed again.
Su Zhaoning did not miss the eyes of the third prince. At today's banquet, Su Zhenyi is not the only one who should repay his debts.
