"How clean is your Zeng family?" Ming Jingyi sneered, "Who doesn't know that Zeng Shangshu sang and sang every night and also got the disease?"

"Now Shangshu Zeng has become a laughing stock in the court! And your mother is still flirting with her old lover. Maybe Zeng Shangshu has already worn many cuckolds on his head! Maybe you are the child of Madam Zeng and her old lover. kind!"

For Ming Jingyi, who has been keeping an eye on Zeng Feihong's movements, all the changes in the Zeng family during this period are under her control. She clearly understands the reason for the dispute between Zeng Shangshu and Mrs. Zeng, and also knows that Zeng Shangshu The reason for treating Zeng Feihong coldly.

After Zeng Feihong heard these words, everyone was stunned.

"Nonsense!" She gritted her teeth and cursed, "Don't talk nonsense here!"

Ming Jingyi sneered again and again: "Who knows? Why don't you try to identify your relatives with a drop of blood!"

Zeng Feihong was so angry that her fingers were trembling: "Kick her out!"

The servants of the Zeng Mansion immediately gathered around, and Ming Jingyi was obviously at a disadvantage.

Chu Shiling looked on in shock. She brought Gu Ning here today with the intention of using Gu Ning's hand to beat these people so that they would not stare at Xie Yan all day long.

But unexpectedly, before Gu Ning took action, these people started fighting among themselves.

"This is really a dog biting a dog..." Chu Shiling whispered, "How did they become like this?"

In her memory, these two people were both first-class noble ladies. Their posture and appearance were beyond her reach.

Hearing this, Gu Ning raised her lips and smiled.

Chu Shiling came back to her senses at this moment, and her heart beat suddenly. She tried her best to lower her voice and asked in a breathy voice that only the two of them could hear: "How did you do that?"

"The mountain man has his own clever plan." Gu Ning replied mysteriously.

Chu Shiling rolled her eyes and snorted coldly: "Are you going to tell me?"

As she spoke, she moved closer to Gu Ning and firmly grasped Gu Ning's arm with one hand, as if she wouldn't let go until Gu Ning told her.

Seeing this, Gu Ning smiled and looked around at the incense burners in the pavilion.

Chu Shiling, who had been paying attention to her movements, was stunned: "You mean... it's the reason for the fragrance?"

Gu Ning nodded: "This was given to me by Divine Doctor Zhou. He said it was a newly developed device that could make people express their inner thoughts, so I gave it a try."

"I didn't expect it to actually work." When Gu Ning spoke, he propped up his chin and looked at the two people huddled together with interest.

While the two were fighting, people as careful as Miss Qi began to suspect Gu Ning.

In fact, the little thoughts of Zeng Feihong and Ming Jingyi are not uncommon in their circles. Not only the two of them, but also the ladies of the Luo family and the Su family who were plotted by them were also eyeing the concubines in the harem. .

Everyone firmly believed that after Xie Yan ascended the throne, he would definitely include a large number of people in the harem, and people like them with prominent family backgrounds would definitely be able to get a share of the pie.

Miss Qi also knew that several of her sisters even wanted to cancel their original marriages just because of this thought. They all thought about going to the harem and giving birth to a prince with the young and handsome emperor, so that the family would have a chance to grow up. The position is more stable.

I just didn't expect that the two most competitive people would make such a big joke in front of them!

Looking at Gu Ning, who was looking at them with a half-smile but not a smile, Miss Huang confirmed her suspicion - Gu Ning must have done this.

And she also stared at the incense burner that suddenly appeared.

"What's in the incense burner?"

Miss Huang approached Miss Qi and asked in a low voice.

She is Mr. Huang's legitimate daughter, and her status among the noble ladies is also very prominent. She and Miss Qi have this kind of relationship as future relatives, and the two of them always go out together.

"Sister Qi, do you think...could it be because of the incense burner? I've been to the Zeng family's backyard three or four times, and they never light incense in the backyard."

Mr. Huang was the minister of Dali Temple before. Several of his children followed him and observed everything meticulously.

Since Miss Huang said she had never seen this incense burner, Miss Qi was even more sure of her guess - Gu Ning had brought this incense burner, and the aroma inside was the main culprit that caused Zeng Feihong and Ming Jingyi to lose their composure. The culprit.

Thinking of this, Miss Qi took a few steps back. She even grabbed Miss Huang's hand: "Sister, don't go that way."

Everyone heard this and stepped back.

Only Zeng Feihong and Ming Jingyi, who had been drugged, became increasingly rude.

"Ming Jingyi, don't think that I don't know what you are planning!" Zeng Feihong sneered, "Even if I can't enter the palace as a concubine! You can't even think of entering!"

Ming Jingyi also sneered back: "I'm not like you, thinking about clinging to the powerful all day long!"

"Clinging to the powerful? So what?" Zeng Feihong laughed out loud, "Do you think anyone is as lucky as Gu Ning to be reincarnated into the belly of Princess Anyang? Even if she only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, she can The eldest princess has paved a road to the sky for her!"

"I want to enter the palace!" Zeng Feihong gritted his teeth and said, "I want all those who look down on me to kneel at my feet! Miss Luo! Miss Xuan! Anyone who stands in front of me will die!"

"You're just from a few small families! How dare you compete with me?" Zeng Feihong's eyes were red and he stared straight ahead.

But at this moment, the smoke in the incense burner had gradually extinguished.

As the last ray of incense dissipated, Zeng Feihong's consciousness gradually recovered.

She looked at herself in embarrassment, and Ming Jingyi who was also in embarrassment across from her, and then looked at the neatly dressed Gu Ning and other noble ladies around her, and the string called reason in her brain completely collapsed.

"You..." Zeng Feihong pointed at Gu Ning, with fear and anxiety in his eyes, "It's you!"

"What are you talking about?" Gu Ning frowned, "What do you mean by me?"

Zeng Feihong recalled the scene just now and felt as if he was in an ice cellar, his whole body was cold.

She is a smart person, how could she not guess that Gu Ning had tampered with this matter.

"You poisoned us!" When Zeng Feihong spoke, her eyes shifted to the incense burner. She eagerly stepped forward and opened the incense burner.

The ashes in the furnace allowed her to see the evidence. She pointed at the ashes and said, "This is the evidence! You poisoned us! You instigated us to say these things!"

"This was never what I had in mind!" Zeng Feihong's voice became extremely sharp.

Ming Jingyi also came to her senses. For the first time, she did not oppose Zeng Feihong, but unanimously said: "Princess! How can you use such insulting methods?"

Hearing this, Gu Ning smiled: "Really? Then you might as well swear."

"Just say...if these are what you think in your heart, then you will not be allowed to enter the palace and become concubines from now on!"

Gu Ning's voice was light and airy, as if in the clouds.

However, when these words fell on the ears of the two of them, they were as heavy as a stone.

Ming Jingyi shut her mouth immediately. Although she didn't believe in ghosts and gods, she swore... that it was something she was taboo about.

Thinking of this, Ming Jingyi looked at Zeng Feihong.

Zeng Feihong also fell silent. She was neither willing to swear nor be the one who stood out against Gu Ning.

When she enters the palace in the future, Gu Ning will be the empress and she will be the concubine. If she offends Gu Ning completely, her life in the palace will not be very happy.

Ming Jingyi obviously thought so too. Both of them were human beings, so they were silent at the moment.

Seeing the two of them looking like this, Gu Ning laughed again: "It seems that neither of you dare to swear."

"So, the crime of poisoning Miss Luo and Miss Su was indeed committed by you two." Gu Ning said with a smile.

"No!" Ming Jingyi immediately denied, "I have never done this!"

"Really?" Gu Ning asked, "Miss Ming is so sure?"

Even though Ming Jingyi was panicking, her expression remained unchanged and she said firmly: "Of course! I will never lie."

"But it was Miss Su who sent this letter to my house." After Gu Ning said that, he took out the letter.

The words on the envelope were large enough to be seen clearly by the ladies standing nearby watching the excitement.

"It is indeed Miss Su's handwriting!"

"Miss Su actually went to find Princess Changning? Does she think Princess Changning will help her?"

"But doesn't Miss Su also want to enter the palace? Princess Changning is really willing to help her?"

Everyone was talking a lot, but Gu Ning was not affected by these words. She dragged her chin and her beautiful eyes were clear: "Miss Ming, this is Miss Su's personal letter. What else do you want to say?"

"Everyone will say anything that confuses right and wrong. How can you make false claims without evidence?" Ming Jingyi said coldly, "The princess should be cautious in her words and deeds!"

"What about Miss Zeng?" Gu Ning asked again, "I also have a letter from Miss Luo."

"It's not just these letters." When Gu Ning spoke, he raised his hand.

Chunyu placed the letters she had prepared on the table. Among the two thick piles of letters, one was for Ming Jingyi and the other was for Zeng Feihong.

"Miss Yuan's family, Miss Li's family, Miss Shi's family... the ladies from these twenty families all confessed in their letters that you poisoned them." Gu Ning frowned and said distressedly, "Could it be that you Are you saying that they are slandering you?"

Ming Jingyi was extremely flustered, and Zeng Feihong did not hesitate to give in.

Even Zeng Feihong's pile of letters was much higher than Ming Jingyi's. She was in a state of confusion, but her mind was as clear as ever. She had only one goal - to prevent Gu Ning from pinning this crime on her head. superior.

She wants to enter the palace!She also wants to give birth to a prince for His Highness!She must not fail at this step!

As a result, Zeng Feihong's eyes were filled with tears. She knelt on the ground in grievance and said in a pitiful voice: "Princess, why do you keep targeting us?"

"What mistake did we make?" Zeng Feihong sobbed a few times as he spoke, "I admit that I do have bad thoughts about His Highness, but His Highness is not yours alone!"

"Did you unite with these people to throw dirty water on us just because we have evil thoughts about His Highness?" Zeng Feihong said aggrievedly, "But since you are the future mother of a country, you should be more open-minded, Your Highness How is it possible that you are the only woman around?"

Ming Jingyi also received Zeng Feihong's signal at this moment, and she knelt down, both of them looking extremely pitiful.

She also wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes aggrievedly: "Yes, Sister Zeng and I have done nothing. We just have admiration for His Highness."

"His Highness is young, handsome, and talented. What woman would not fall in love with him upon meeting him? Are you going to kill all the women who admire His Highness?"

Ming Jingyi looked at Gu Ning and repeated: "You can't be the only one beside His Highness!"

"Your Highness is the future emperor of our Chu Kingdom! There are 72 concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, how can it be possible that you are the only one?"

Ming Jingyi and Zeng Feihong both emphasized this point, their eyes were extremely determined, without any doubt at all.

However, at this moment, an extremely cold male voice sounded from behind everyone.

"She is the only one beside me."

This voice was very unfamiliar to others, but to Gu Ning, it was extremely familiar.

She raised her head in surprise and saw Xie Yan walking towards him angrily.
