The more Mrs. Dingguo felt sorry for her daughter, the more she looked at Mrs. Jinxiang Hou.

Ning Yuze's daughter's full moon banquet, as the children and in-laws of the Dingguo Duke's Mansion, the Mu family, Miao family, and Zhao family all came to support her. But the Duke's wife saw that no one was happy, and after she barely greeted her with a smile, she started talking to her sister in her parents' family.

While Ji Zishan was chatting with Yao Dejin and Mrs. Mu, an old lady with gray hair and energetic spirit came over and saluted Ji Zishan and Yao Dejin first and said, "I have met the princess and princess." Then he greeted Mrs. Mu, "Mrs. Mu."

"So it's Mrs. Jinxiang." Ji Zishan responded with a faint expression, neither asking her to sit down nor having any extra polite words. If every time someone came over, she would invite her to sit down and talk, the vegetable market would have become a bustling nearby.

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou did not say goodbye and left, and still said with a smile: "I haven't seen the princess and princess for a long time. Are you good to both nobles?"

"Okay, my sister-in-law and I are all right." Ji Zishan lazily and perfunctorily, this old lady, can you go and play with your peers?

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou still did not move away. Instead, she talked happily as if she saw an old acquaintance: "The princess's beloved daughter should be seven months old. The old saying goes, turn around and sit around, roll and climb around, and the older girl will be able to learn to walk in a few months."

Ji Zishan glanced at Mrs. Jinxiang Hou with a little puzzled look and replied: "This is true. My girl is now like to roll around and play around."

"The princess is born with beauty and is a rare beauty. It is said that her daughter Xiao Mu, and the eldest girl will be appointed to follow the princess in the future, and she will also be a beautiful little beauty." After attracting a lot of children, Mrs. Jinxiang Hou seemed to be more lively.

Ji Zishan's eyes turned and she said casually: "Mrs. Jinxiang Hou should not praise me. I am so scared that I can't find the north when I go out."

"The princess is really funny. It's strange that the Empress Dowager and His Majesty both treat the princess as treasures." Mrs. Jinxiang Hou smiled and praised Ji Zishan again.

Ji Zishan did not invite Mrs. Jinxiang Hou to sit down, so Mrs. Jinxiang Hou had to stand and talk to Ji Zishan, saying all the same things were compliments and obedient. There were many women in the flower hall where guests were treated, and there were often people walking back and forth. Mrs. Jinxiang Hou stood for a while, but it was not very conspicuous. Others thought she was going to greet her, but she kept talking to Ji Zishan. Ji Zishan did not invite her to sit down. After a little longer, she seemed a little abrupt in the flower hall.

After receiving the reminder from the maid, Mrs. Dingguo hurried over and smiled and took the Madam Jinxiang Hou's arm: "My mother-in-law, what are you talking to the princess? It's so lively... It's hot today, I asked someone to prepare the Yunwu tea you often drink, so follow me to taste it." As he said that, he sued Ji Zishan and others, and then pulled Madam Jinxiang Hou away with a smile.

Ji Zishan held her cheeks and said thoughtfully: "This old lady has some problems."

Mrs. Mu didn't say anything, but she just held a cup of warm tea and savored slowly. However, Yao Dejin's eyes moved slightly and said whispered: "I'll find out what's going on when I ask."

"Sister-in-law, let's talk to me." Ji Zishan said, "I don't listen to the gossip that comes to my door."

Yao Dejin glanced at the wife of the Marquis of Jinxiang who was pulled away and whispered: "There has been a fraud case in the west recently. Your Majesty was furious and asked the third prince to cooperate with the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Justice to investigate and deal with it. The little brothers of Mrs. Jinxiang's wife's family were also involved. A while ago, an official involved in the case had been escorted back to Beijing. It is still under trial and has not been closed."

"What does sister-in-law mean?" Ji Zishan said slowly, stroking Zhuzhu in her ears.

Yao Dejin said quietly: "Your Majesty has issued an order. This case must be handled strictly. I am afraid that no one of them will be charged easily. I heard that the brothers of Mrs. Jinxiang Hou were involved in the case and must be asked for the crime. Your Majesty was furious. At this moment, no one dared to plead for her family to escape from the crime. She was afraid that she had no choice but to come to you."

"If I recommend talents or something, I can still talk about it. If I don't open my mouth, I will definitely be beaten with a feather duster by my emperor." Ji Zishan shook his head and said.

Seeing this, Yao Dejin chuckled slightly and said, "When did Your Majesty really hit you? Your brother had told me that when did you look pitiful and begging for mercy, your Majesty will be destroyed even if you have a huge fire."

"Why do you say everything about my brother Wang? In this way, Brother Wang told Sister Wang about this?" Ji Zishan despised his little brother Yuanbao every day.

Yao Dejin said in a gentle voice: "A few days ago, Mr. Hou of Jinxiang invited your brother Wang to have a tea. I asked a casual question, and he just told me that he never told me about officialdom in the past few days."

"Oh, what do you say all day long-term-" Ji Zishan stretched out her tone and teased, "Is it because she talked about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and enjoying the wind, flowers, snow and moon together?"

Yao Dejin blushed and said in a angrily voice: "You bad girl, I'll talk to you about the serious business, but you joked about me."

Ji Zishan smiled and then greeted Mrs. Mu, "Mom, try this melon seeds, it tastes pretty good. Where did we just talk about it? Oh, when Huaiqian got home, he hugged Manman and refused to let go. I said something to him, and I had to wait a long time before I could agree. This morning, I had already dressed up, and he still refused to get up with Manman and played until he almost didn't have breakfast..."

While Mrs. Mu was listening to the princess’ daughter-in-law’s complaints with a smile, Mrs. Jinxiang Hou, who was forcibly pulled away by Duke Dingguo, broke free from her arm and said slightly, "I am talking to the princess, what are you going to do?"

"Then you should also be concerned about the occasion. When you look at the princess's face, you will know that she doesn't want to pay much attention to you. You keep coming over and doing something." The wife of Dingguo Duke sneered in her heart, but said in a low voice.

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou lost her smile just now, with anger and anxiety in her eyes. She said with a slight sarcastic feeling: "After my mother's family, my relatives were standing by and unwilling to help her. I, an old woman, could only give up her face and beg her grandpa to sue her grandma everywhere."

After the incident of her mother's brother, she begged her daughter-in-law's family, but the Ning family ignored her. She asked her son to go to the fifth prince to inquire about the news. The fifth prince told her that the case was not under his control. The son went to see the third prince again. The third prince looked loyal and respectful to her brother, "He will do whatever His Majesty asked him to do. Now His Majesty asks him to find out the truth and punish him seriously. Of course, he must act according to the order. Could it be that he would fool His Majesty? As for the officials of various departments who tried this case, they either refused to see him at all, or they would be perfunctory when they saw him.

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou had no choice but to seek Princess Zhaoyang, who had won the holy heart.

Could it be that she was told to watch her brother die?

Upon hearing this, the wife of Dingguo Duke suppressed her anger and whispered: "Your brothers committed not a small case, and the evidence is conclusive. Who has the ability to overturn the case for him? If you don't want him to be punished, then he should not be greedy in office."

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou said in pain: "I don't ask for a cleansing of his crime, I just want to save him a life." According to the number my brother greedy, once the case is closed and convicted, I am afraid that it will be a punishment. "My dear mother, I beg you. As long as the in-laws ask the Empress Dowager for a few good words, my brother will be saved. I know Lu Qiao's affairs, and you don't want to make you happy with Yuling. As long as you are willing to help this, I will be considered as having only one grandson and two granddaughters. Is it okay?"

Ning Yuling only gave birth to one son and one daughter, and with the concubine daughter Hongxiu gave birth to before, there were only three children under the head of the Marquis of Jinxiang. Mrs. Jinxiang said this to be like saying that she would not let Lu Qiao's child be born.

The wife of Dingguo Duke was a little moved. After a moment, she still refused firmly and said, "My mother-in-law, it's not that I'm cruel to help you. My family really can't get involved in this matter. You know, it's the one in the palace who must be strictly handled. Who dares to touch His Majesty's bad luck?" Anyway, she was afraid of the royal people, so she turned her face and no relative recognized it. "If you have the courage, you might as well go to the palace to ask for the Empress Dowager, or ask your marquis to meet His Majesty."

As soon as he heard the advice of Mrs. Dingguo Duke, Mrs. Jinxiang Hou was as weak as if she had pierced the ball.

My husband was afraid of causing trouble, so he was too late to avoid it. Even when he went to inquire about the progress of the case, he was in a hindrance, let alone pleading with His Majesty.

As for the empress dowager, she didn't have much face. She wanted her daughter-in-law to go to the palace to talk, but her daughter-in-law directly rejected her. The long-term reasoning made her almost faint, and she didn't dare to force her too much, so she had to ask her son to persuade her daughter-in-law again. Unexpectedly, because the Houzi, who had been running for his uncle for a long time but had repeatedly hit a wall, also issued a dissatisfied protest.

When his uncle committed a crime, he had already been criticized and pointed at him. He was also begging for my mother's crying and begging him, and he smiled and asked for his relationship. He had long been worried.

Your Majesty has issued a strict order, and he is still moving around to expel his uncle. If the storm is heard from heaven, your Majesty will be annoyed and even he will be punished together.

Anyway, the Marquis of Jinxiang is now protesting against the strike, and Mrs. Jinxiang is so worried.

Not long after Ji Zishan watched the wife of Jinxiang, she welcomed the Grandmaster of Duke Zhenguo again. Because she was the queen's biological mother and the grandmother of the little prince Yuanyuan. Even though Ji Zishan didn't have a good impression of her now, she still needed to sell her some face. Otherwise, I was afraid that the little prince Yuanyuan's face would not look good. Therefore, when she saw that she wanted to talk to her, Ji Zishan could only smile and said, "Madam, please sit down."

The Duke of Zhenguo immediately sat down with slight pride.

The scene where Mrs. Marquis of Jinxiang stood for a long time. She had just noticed that in front of Princess Zhaoyang who was above the top, a Mrs. Marquis who had a relative relationship with the Empress Dowager's family was nothing at all. Only her, the grandmother of the Crown Prince, could be called Princess Chaoyang to treat her differently.
