Seeing An Yun slightly raise his body because of this small action, Jiang Xue chuckled again.

"Maybe Shangguan Jin was worried about you when he kidnapped you, so he wanted to teach you some self-defense skills." In these turbulent times, it is always good to learn how to protect yourself.

"I think he wants to tire me to death." An Yun turned over and lay on her back, full of dissatisfaction. She raised her sore arm and rolled up her sleeve to show Jiang Xue the purple and blue scars on it - these were the marks left by falling while practicing Qinggong with Mo Chenjun.

The prince felt that Chen Jun’s training had indeed been effective.

The girl had been pressing on Xiaoxue, so Xiao Zhan easily lifted her up from the collar from behind like a chicken and put her on the chair next to him.

Her steps were much lighter and her speed increased significantly when she entered the house.

In just a few days, her progress was astonishing. It seemed that she was born to be a martial artist.

If she continues like this, she will be able to master kung fu in a few months.

"Since you were practicing martial arts, why did you suddenly come here?" Xiao Zhan asked.

An Yun, who was put on the chair, was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and muttered like a child who had done something wrong: "Mo Chenjun was called to the military camp by his father, so I ran away." In fact, she was too tired and wanted to rest.

An Yun scratched his head, as if he remembered something, and continued: "Oh, by the way, when I came, I seemed to see Miss Mo Er and the First Madam together." Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan exchanged glances, with a hint of confusion in their eyes.

Ink ring?

What is she coming back for?

"The eldest lady has always treated Mo Huan harshly, and Mo Huan always avoids her. How could she be with her?" Jiang Xue felt that things were not simple. What kind of conspiracy was there between these two women?

"An Yun, are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Xiao Zhan asked.

If Mo Huan really came back, why didn't anyone in the Mo family make any move? She was still nominally the Crown Prince's concubine, so it was unreasonable for her to go home to visit her family without informing them.

"I definitely didn't see it wrong. I even went closer to confirm it because I had seen the First Madam treat Miss Mo badly before, so I was particularly surprised to see them standing together." An Yun replied.

"Mo Huan returned home quietly. Apparently someone had made arrangements in advance to prevent the news from leaking out." Xiao Zhan analyzed.

Commander Mo has been busy with military affairs recently and has not returned home for many days. Only Mo Chenjun can make decisions at home.

The eldest lady was afraid that Mo Chenjun would know about this, and he must have some ulterior motive.

Ever since entering the Mohist school, Xiao Zhan noticed that something was wrong with the eldest lady's behavior, so he specially arranged for someone to monitor her secretly in order to find out what was going on.

Mo Huan is from the Prince's Mansion, and the eldest lady obviously doesn't want the three of them to stay for long. If you think about it carefully, it's easy to guess what the two of them might be plotting.

"An Yun, besides seeing them standing together, did you notice anything else?" Jiang Xue asked.

An Yun shook her head. She just recognized the identities of the two people and left without paying much attention to their actions.

"Forget it. Now that we know they are in contact, we have to be more careful in the future." Xiao Zhan said, his eyes met with Jiang Xue's, his expression serious. It was not easy to have a few days of peace, but now there is trouble again. Unfortunately, I haven't fully recovered yet... Looking at the finger tightly wrapped in the bandage, Jiang Xue sighed helplessly.

Two days later at noon, "Princess Changle, the eldest lady asks you to come over." When Xiao Zhan and Si Ruochen went to get medicine and the other went to find out the news about Hu Yin City, Jiang Xue was alone in the room. Suddenly, a little maid walked up lightly, bowed respectfully and said.

Madam? Jiang Xue frowned slightly. Oh? What a coincidence that you chose this time to come when I'm alone?

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he responded politely: "I wonder what the eldest lady wants to see me about?"

"The eldest lady said that the palace has given us some fruits as a reward today, and she would like to invite you to taste them together." The little maid's words were flawless, and it seemed impossible to refuse.

After all, they are kind enough to invite you to eat the tribute. If you refuse, it would be very rude. "The eldest lady specifically instructed that you don't have to worry about your hands. The cook will cut the fruit and send it to you."

It seems that even the excuse has been blocked. Jiang Xue chuckled, "Since it is Madam's good intention, I will respectfully obey your order."

Jiang Xue smiled slightly, stood up and walked behind the screen, "Miss, wait a moment, I'll change my clothes and come back."

The girl nodded in agreement and waited quietly outside the screen.

Not long after, Jiang Xue appeared in a snow-white dress. Her injured hand was wrapped in delicate gloves, which looked particularly eye-catching.

"Let's go." Her smile was warm and friendly.

With the maid leading the way, the two soon arrived at the place where the eldest lady had arranged for them to meet, a small pavilion built by the water.

In the clear pond, two goldfish are swimming leisurely.

The rockery cleverly blocks the view, and from the outside, one can only see the lady sipping tea and enjoying the scenery alone.

With a meaningful smile, Jiang Xue walked into the pavilion, greeted the eldest lady and sat down opposite her.

The table was filled with all kinds of fruits and vegetables, but she had other ideas in her mind.

"Princess Changle, you have been in the Mo family for several days. As the wife of the head of the family, I have never formally entertained you. I feel ashamed.

Today I am fortunate to receive tribute from the palace, and I specially invite the princess to taste it to make up for my impoliteness. I hope the princess will not despise it. "

As she spoke, the eldest lady personally picked out a few of the most delicious fruits and handed them to Jiang Xue.

Looking at these common fruits in front of her, Jiang Xue smiled secretly. Tribute is precious and rare, and it will never be supplied in large quantities like this.

But on the surface, she still acted very grateful: "Madam is too modest, Changle should be thanked for your tolerance and help. It is rare to still give such support after knowing the identity.

What touched me even more was that the junior general had informed the Grand Commandant of this matter and obtained the emperor's approval to allow me to stay here temporarily. Changle sincerely admired the eldest lady's generosity. "

These words left the eldest lady speechless for a moment. She had originally thought that she could deal with this trouble quietly, but now it seems that the situation is much more complicated than she had imagined.

Jiang Xue noticed the change in the other person's expression and sneered in her heart: Do you think you can deal with me easily?

In fact, I have made arrangements in advance to ensure my own safety.

She didn't know how Commander Mo convinced the emperor, but she only cared about the result.

As for this kindness, she will always remember it in her heart and will find an opportunity to repay it in the future.

"Oh, by the way, Madam, I suddenly remembered something. Is the Imperial Concubine already five months pregnant?" Jiang Xue asked softly.

Ever since the Emperor of Beixi was assassinated and Mo Ying sacrificed herself to block the knife, her position in the palace has become more stable, which naturally aroused the jealousy of many people.

When her beloved daughter was mentioned, the eldest lady fell into anxiety again, even before she recovered from the shock.

Ying'er, her beloved daughter, why did this woman suddenly mention Ying'er?
