Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Zhou Jin looked nervous, "In order for Xiling to lend her money, Gu Xirong must have said a lot of shocking things."

Marquis Changning pondered for a moment and nodded, "It should be."

Song was suspicious. "Mrs. Xie has dreams all day long, and most of them involve shadows. I don't know what's going on. Are there really gods?"

Marquis Changning shook his head. "You don't talk about strange things, so where are the gods?"

Song frowned, "Then how do you explain that she knew so many things in advance? With the foundation of the Xie family, she couldn't have the channels to know these news, not even the Jingyang Marquis's Mansion. With so many doubts, don't you doubt it?"

Marquis Changning pondered for a moment, "Maybe there really are people in the world who can predict the future? Or maybe dreams can predict the future?"

Zhou Jin heard this and said with a smile: "Father, mother, you don't need to argue. We are upright and fear no shadow. We will stop the enemy with soldiers and cover the water with earth. If there is a sign, it will be the best. If not, we can also deal with it. We can't put all our hopes on these uncertain signs."

Song was surprised and said with a smile: "Jin'er is right. Whether it is a real dream or a trick, at least we won't suffer any loss. Hey? Xiling, why haven't you come yet?"

She was particularly curious about the purpose of Gu Xirong's visit.

Just like that, under the eager anticipation of these three people, Gu Xiling finally arrived at the main courtyard.

"Greetings to mother, father, and husband." Gu Xiling said with a smile, being polite and considerate.

Song waved, "Xi Ling, don't be so polite. Come, sit down quickly and tell me why Madam Xie is here?"

Zhou Jin stood up to return the greeting, and reached out to help Gu Xiling sit next to him, "Madam, don't be anxious, talk slowly."

Gu Xiling waved her hand and said to the servants in the room, "Everyone, go down. My husband has been treating me badly recently. I want to complain to my parents-in-law."

Zhou Jin was stunned. He even lied. This was really a big deal!

He was nervous, so it couldn't have anything to do with him, right?

Song's face darkened and she cursed, "You rascal, you bully Xi Ling again!"

"Hmph!" Marquis Changning also knows how to act. "I'll teach you a lesson later. Now get out of here."

"Yes!" After hearing this, the maids and servants stepped back one after another.

After the people left, Zhou Jin asked cautiously: "My wife, we were fine this morning. We were busy all day and didn't have time to do anything stupid."

Gu Xiling chuckled, "I have to wrong my husband again! However, this is a serious matter, so I have no choice but to do it. Sister Rong came over today, and she exchanged a piece of news with me for 20,000 taels of silver. Of course, this silver was paid with the dividends from the furs, so it is not a loan."

Song was anxious, "Xi Ling, you said that the money is not important."

Seeing everyone anxious, Gu Xiling lowered her voice and answered, "Sister Rong's dream predicted that His Majesty's birthday banquet would be held at the imperial manor outside the city. At that time, Princess Xueying would poison me to death."

"Not only that, Princess Xueying would also drug her husband and then have sex with him, at least to make others think so, and then achieve her goal."

"Ah?" Song exclaimed, "No... Impossible, how could there be such a treasonous thing? That's the princess, of noble status, a royal branch and jade leaf!"

Gu Xiling raised her eyebrows, "Mother, have you forgotten the horse-scaring incident? Fortunately, I know martial arts. If it were any other girl, she would have died long ago. It's not impossible that she was defeated by me twice, considering Princess Xueying's unruly personality."

Song's face changed drastically, and she narrowed her eyes slightly. "A princess like her, what kind of husband can she not want? Why is she staring at other people's men? She is willing to be a lowly person!"

Zhou Jin sat upright, "Xi Ling, if we don't go to His Majesty's birthday banquet, we can avoid it."

"If I can avoid the first day, can I avoid the fifteenth?" Gu Xiling asked back, "Princess Xueying wants to kill me. She hides with the Queen Mother. Even Your Majesty can do nothing about it."

Zhou Jin was nervous. He held Gu Xiling's hand with a worried look on his face. "Yes, there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Since we know about this matter in advance, we must take precautions in advance and catch the opponent's weak spot so that she will not dare to continue to act recklessly."

Marquis of Changning Zhou Ze gently stroked his beautiful beard, squinted his eyes slightly, and kept thinking.

When Song saw that Marquis Changning didn't say anything, she thought that he was afraid of offending the royal family, so she reached out and pinched his arm.

"Xi Ling is the wife of the Crown Prince of my Changning Marquisate. Whoever hurts Xi Ling is an enemy of our Changning Marquisate. Over the years, we have been keeping a low profile. Whether it's the father-in-law, the husband, or Jin'er, they are all loyal to His Majesty and the court."

"If the court fails the loyalty of its officials, it will inevitably have a great impact and shake the foundation of the country. Of course, these words are too big and too empty. Husband, you should think more about how to save Xiling and Jin'er, and how to avoid it."

Song's fingers were so strong that Marquis Changning groaned in pain.

In front of his son and daughter-in-law, he maintained the demeanor of an elder and resisted the urge to grin.

"Madam, don't worry." Marquis Changning reached out and held Song's hand to save his poor arm.

Song glared at Marquis Changning, "How can I not be anxious? Your daughter-in-law and son are about to be plotted against, and you are still silent! Anyway, I don't care, I only want Xiling as my daughter-in-law, no one else will do."

"Don't mention the princess, even if His Majesty gave birth to a daughter, I wouldn't care. Our family is complete and peaceful. My husband, you must find a way."

Changning Marquis Zhou Ze shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I am thinking about it. Madam, I promise you that I will protect Xi Ling. Is that ok? Be gentle, let go."

Hearing Changning Hou say this, Song was relieved, "That's better, think about it quickly, there's no time to waste."

Marquis Changning smiled, "In fact, the situation is not as bad as you think. At least we know about it first. With Xiling's ability and precautions, she will not be poisoned."

"As for Jin'er, although she is a little stupid, she can protect herself. At the Wanshou Banquet, as long as it is not ordered by His Majesty himself, you can ignore the orders of others if you feel there is danger."

"Xi Ling, Jin Er, remember this. We at Changning Marquisate are low-key, but we are not incompetent. If you don't obey orders, you can bear the consequences. Even for some orders, as long as His Majesty doesn't say it in person, we will find excuses to delay or even not do it."

"If you still can't avoid being framed after doing something so easy, then I can only say that you are stupid. Even if I can save you once, I can't save you a hundred times."

Gu Xiling heard her father-in-law's words and smiled, "Father is right. I already have a plan. Anyway, I don't eat or drink. In a crowd of people, I don't believe that Princess Xueying can poison all the ladies."

Marquis Changning nodded, "Indeed, this method is stupid, but very effective. If you drug so many ladies, even the Queen Mother won't be able to save her."
