Chapter 1067 Biting each other
She raised her hand and slapped Cheng Jiaojiao hard: "Don't you have any bad intentions? You are thinking about my son, and you even want to become his concubine. You are a heartless and ruthless bitch, don't even think about exonerating yourself!"
She slapped Cheng Jiaojiao so hard that her mouth and nose started bleeding.
Knowing that she couldn't escape, Old Lady Yue grabbed Cheng Jiaojiao's hair and jumped into the dry well.
She narrowed her eyes and sneered: "Even if I die, you, Cheng Jiaojiao, will be buried with me!"
Cheng Jiaojiao broke down and cried: "I just want to live a good life without worries about food and clothing, what can I do wrong?"
To prevent the two men from screaming and disturbing others, the eldest princess ordered people to mix mute drugs into their food.
From then on, the two stayed in the dry well, with no one to call for help.
Peace gradually returned to the Princess's Mansion, but Yue Zhan refused to give up.
He knelt at the door every day without fail and refused to leave.
At first, the princess sent people to drive them away, but gradually, she ignored them.
As the year draws to a close, the streets begin to become bustling.
The entire Zhan Yihou Mansion was decorated with lights and colors. Princess Youyi supported her waist and directed Zhan Mu and Zhan Xuan to post couplets.
Zhan Miao and Zhan Qingning were making red lanterns in the yard, it was so lively.
Wang Yanyan found Lin Yiwan and hesitated to speak.
Lin Yiwan understood what she wanted to say. The little girl had been away from home for a long time and wanted to go back for the New Year.
She said softly, "Yan'er, I understand your thoughts, but your mother is still worried. She said that your sister hasn't been found yet, and she's worried that you'll be plotted against again after returning to the mansion!"
Wang Yanyan pursed her lips tightly and stammered, "My mother is worrying too much. I was caught off guard last time Wang Yingying succeeded. Now I've been learning martial arts from Master Xuan for a while. I promise she can't hurt me again!"
She paused and then spoke again: "I can't keep hiding from her!"
Lin Yiwan agreed with her. Yes, some things cannot be solved by hiding.
She ordered people to prepare rich gifts for Wang Yanyan to take back to the Censorate, and promised that the door of Zhan Yihou's mansion would always be open to her.
Mrs. Wang was very surprised to see Wang Yanyan. She hugged her tightly and said, "Mother dreams of you every night. Mother has been looking forward to your return!"
Wang Yanyan acted coquettishly: "I want to eat the snacks made by mother. Although the snacks at Zhan Yihou's mansion are delicious, they don't taste like mother's after all!"
Mrs. Wang said distressedly, "It's been prepared for you a long time ago. Come in quickly!"
When the mother and daughter entered the house, they saw several younger brothers and sisters respectfully calling out, "Hello, big sister!"
Wang Yanyan gave gifts to her younger brothers and sisters, and they happily ran out to play.
It wasn't until the mother and daughter were the only ones left in the room that Wang Yanyan asked, puzzled, "Has there been no news from her?"
Madam Wang shook her head gently. "It's as if she's vanished from the face of the earth. Someone said she appeared in a temple outside Beijing before, but when I went looking for her, she was gone!"
Wang Yanyan sighed, "As long as she doesn't do anything evil, it doesn't matter if she keeps hiding!"
Madam Wang was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "Yan'er, the royal family wants to choose you as queen. What do you think?"
Wang Yanyan grasped her wrist tightly and said, "I'll follow Mom and Dad's arrangements!"
At this time, Censor Wang walked in from outside and said, "Of course I agree. I just came out of the palace. The emperor gave you a dress. He hopes you can wear it to the palace banquet tomorrow!"
Madam Wang asked in surprise, "The Emperor actually gave Yan'er clothes?"
Censor Wang didn't answer, but handed a brocade box to Wang Yanyan. "They say it's made of the finest fabric, and the embroiderer's craftsmanship is incredible. Go down and try it!"
Wang Yanyan bowed shyly, turned around and walked away quickly holding the brocade box.
As she watched her back disappear, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel her eyes turn red.
She said bitterly, "Master, do we really want to send Yan'er to the palace? Once she steps into the palace, it will be difficult for us to see her again!"
Censor Wang sighed helplessly, "What choice do we have now? The Marquis's wife protected her, and the Emperor is also quite curious about her, so she has no choice but to enter the palace!"
After a pause, he whispered soothingly, "The Emperor has a gentle temperament. Don't worry, after Yan'er enters the palace, we won't let her suffer any grievances!"
Mrs. Wang naturally understood that the emperor had been well taught by Prince Li. Since the death of Emperor Sheng'an, the concubines in the harem had been dismissed, and no one would put pressure on Wang Yan'er. This made her very satisfied.
Soon, Wang Yanyan, wearing a brocade dress, reappeared in the couple's sight.
She smiled brightly and said, "Father, Mother, do you think my dress looks good?"
Mrs. Wang almost stared with her eyes wide open. She had never seen such a beautiful skirt before.
Especially the layers of petals on the skirt, which look as if they are about to bloom, so dazzling and gorgeous.
She nodded hurriedly: "It looks great! If my Yan'er wore this dress to attend the palace banquet, she would surely stun everyone!"
Wang Yan'er was already beautiful, and now, with the brocade skirt as a backdrop, she looked even more graceful and elegant.
She said shyly, "My daughter also thinks this skirt is very beautiful. She will take good care of it!"
Madam Wang hurriedly urged, "Yes, take it off quickly, and tell Qiu'er to keep it safe. If anything goes wrong, the Emperor will blame you!"
Wang Yanyan nodded and hurriedly took Qiu'er back to her yard.
She asked Qiu'er to put the brocade skirt into the box and warned her in a serious tone, "From now on, you will stay with this brocade skirt at all times. No matter how big the event is outside, you are not allowed to go out and watch the fun!"
Qiu'er knew that this skirt was very important to Wang Yanyan, so she naturally didn't dare to neglect it.
She carried the box into the next room and guarded it tightly.
As dawn approached, she heard the gatekeeper's voice calling out.
She suddenly opened her eyes and when she confirmed that the box was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She stood up to open the door, and saw the gatekeeper speaking with a smile on her face: "Miss Qiu'er, the eldest lady just told me to bring breakfast to you!"
Qiu'er thanked her politely: "Thank you for your help, Madam!"
The gatekeeper quickly shook her head and said, "Miss Qiu'er, you can't say that. You are the eldest lady's personal maid, and it is only natural for an old woman to do something for you. The kitchen has a rich meal today, including black chicken stew and fried lamb chops. Come and try them!"
Qiu'er was really hungry, so she washed up and ate quickly.
But not long after she finished eating, she felt her eyelids were drooping.
She is a little sleepy!
The gatekeeper looked her over as she packed up the food boxes. "Are you tired, Miss Qiu'er? Why don't you go to bed for a while?"
Qiu'er shuddered with shock. She reached out and pinched her arm hard, saying, "I can't sleep. I have to watch over the young lady's skirt. She's going to the palace to attend a banquet tonight, and there can't be any mistakes!"
