[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy

Chapter 287 The Road to Beloved Queen 23

Hesheli Mansion, Yunnuan Pavilion.

Although Sheng Huan was "tired", he was not sleepy and was eating melons in the palace.

"Princess, are you feeling unwell? I'll call the doctor in to take a look." Xuelu was a little worried.

Sheng Huan shook his head and smiled: "No, I just suddenly want to eat the cakes from Zhonghe Building."

Xuelu laughed when she heard that, and said considerately, "Since Princess wants to eat, I will go and tell the shopping manager. You can eat when Princess wakes up."

Sheng Huan nodded and finally fell asleep. Seeing this, Xuelu quietly left.

She had no idea that although her master had closed his eyes at the moment, his mind was still on the news from the palace that Puhua had brought him.

Sheng Huan thought that the palace was much more lively than Hesheli Mansion.

Here, the old lady and Mrs. Hesheli were ready and were about to leave the house.

At this moment, a maid from Yun Nuan Pavilion was seen running over, and no one knew where she was going.

"What's the matter? You were not in Yunnuan Pavilion serving the princess, why did you run out?" Mrs. Hesheli called out to him.

"Madam, old lady." The little maid bowed: "Sister Xuelu asked me to come here to find the purchasing manager and ask him to send someone to Zhonghe Tower to buy some cakes."

The old lady nodded when she heard this and looked at her daughter-in-law: "I think Pan Shu wants to eat cakes. She has always loved them."

Madam Hesheli also smiled and looked at the maid: "You don't have to go find the steward. It just so happens that my wife and the old lady are going out. We will bring her back to your princess later."

"Yes." The maid bowed.

-

Tongjia Mansion, main courtyard.

Mrs. Tong Jia was counting the accounts when a maid ran in hurriedly from outside the door.

"Madam, old lady Hesheli and the others are here, and they are outside the door now!"

Mrs. Tong Jia looked up in astonishment: "How could it be!"

She hasn't received the visiting card yet. Thinking of Bi'er, her heart began to tighten. Could she have been discovered? Her lips twitched wildly, but she didn't dare to stop it. After all, the old lady was her elder, and she was also her father's cousin and her aunt from a few rooms away. Her father died early, and she was taken care of by several uncles and aunts. If she dared to stop it, the clan would have something to say to her tomorrow.

"Please come in quickly."

Soon, Mrs. Hesheli came in, supporting the old lady.

Madam Tong Jia came forward with a smile on her face, and said sarcastically: "Madam, sister-in-law, what's the wind that brings you here today without even sending a visiting card?"

The old lady snorted coldly, pretending not to hear. After all, they were settling accounts, so what kind of etiquette was needed? "What style? Don't you know?"

Madam Tong Jia's eyelids twitched, and she pretended to be puzzled: "Don't make fun of me, old lady. I really don't know. Could it be..." She pretended to be enlightened: "Could it be about Pan Shu's makeup? Oh, this matter is not worth you coming in person. I plan to send it to Pan Shu in a few days."

"We can't afford your extra makeup." Madam Hesheli sneered: "Sister gave something to our maid a few days ago, I think she hasn't forgotten it."

Mrs. Tong Jia's heart finally lifted: "What is sister-in-law saying? I can't understand it——"

With a "Pa!" sound, a slap landed directly on her face. Mrs. Tong Jia looked up at the person who hit her in shock, unable to believe it.

"You dare to hit me!"

"Why wouldn't I dare? You deserve it."

"Sister-in-law, aren't you afraid that the Imperial Concubine in the palace will come after you!"

"Afraid? Why should I be afraid? You dare to hurt my daughter. Even if it gets out, I am not afraid of being laughed at! Can the Imperial Concubine confuse right and wrong?" Lady Hesheli's eyes were filled with fire. Seeing that Lady Tongjia was not repentant and was pretending to be so, she felt so angry when she thought of her daughter who was still suffering.

"You!" Madam Tong Jia was furious: "Could it be that my sister-in-law wants to break up with me?!"

"Pah!" Another slap.

"So what!" Madam Hesheli wanted to beat her to death: "Not to mention that Pan Shu is a reserved beauty, you sent someone to drug her, which is an offense to the majesty of heaven. Moreover, she is your niece, and you still do such a cruel thing. The two slaps I gave her today are light!"

Madam Tong Jia was hit in the face and it hurt. After she came to her senses, she rushed towards Madam Hesheli and was about to fight back. However, she was stopped by the nanny behind Madam Hesheli. She was angry and looked at the old lady: "Madam, why don't you just ignore her? I have no evidence. I didn't do anything."

The old lady did not stop him, but said: "Huanqin, we will not come without evidence. We have the witnesses and evidence. You know, Panshu is now lying in bed suffering because of you. If it weren't for the old master inviting the imperial physician, I'm afraid she would be in danger. You have to understand your sister-in-law's heart as a mother. If the old master and the Hesheli clan came today, it would not be as simple as the two slaps from your sister-in-law."

"Why does the old lady have to be so righteous? You just want to convict me!"

The old lady glanced at Madam Tong Jia and said, "Huanqin, you are the aunt of the Hesheli Mansion. I don't know why you are so angry, but you should never point the knife at your mother's family. Otherwise, how would you know when you would need your mother's family to support you?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Tong Jia shuddered all over and a chill ran up from the soles of her feet.

"I don't need my natal family. I am now the mistress of the Tongjia Mansion, and my daughter is the Imperial Noble Consort. What am I afraid of?" Madam Tongjia gritted her teeth. Even if she didn't have the support of her natal family, she still had the Imperial Noble Consort in the palace. As long as the Imperial Noble Consort was there, who would dare to bully her? She calmed down and sneered:

"As for Pan Shu, she deserved it. Who told her to use the power of the Imperial Concubine to dress up and act like a prostitute in the palace? The old lady said that my sister-in-law loves her daughter, and I love the Imperial Concubine too. She dared to use my daughter as a pawn, so she deserves to die!"

"You are slandering me! My daughter is a pure and innocent girl, what right do you have to slander her? The Imperial Concubine is so powerful that it would be easy for her to do anything, but you insist on throwing dirty water on a little showgirl!"

"The letter was written by the Imperial Concubine herself. How could it be false?"

The old lady looked at her disappointedly for a long while, and finally said: "Don't you think about our Pan Shu's status? If she really wants to, does she need to rely on your power? She is the Shangshu!"

Mrs. Tong Jia also felt something was wrong at this moment. Indeed, Hesheli Panshu had a good Marfa. If she wanted to, there was no need to go so far. But she did not allow herself to retreat.

The old lady didn't want to talk to her any more, and she said coldly: "Remember, it was you who said that you don't need your mother's family."

"Fourth daughter-in-law, let's go."

After the old lady and the others left, Madam Tong Jia could no longer control herself and slumped down in her chair, feeling extremely empty inside.

royal palace.

When Longkodo came back from patrol, he was stopped by the leader of the guards.

"Long Kedo, you don't have to come this afternoon."

Longkodo was puzzled: "Commander, it's not time for me to rest yet?"

The head guard shook his head: "No, you have been dismissed. Go home."

Longkodo couldn't believe it and widened his eyes: "Why?!"

The head of the guards guessed something and said meaningfully: "You know where you went secretly today."

When Longkodo heard this, it was like a bolt from the blue. He had only gone to pass a message to his sister, the Imperial Noble Consort, and to a palace maid at that, but how come he was dismissed from his post as soon as he came back?

Longkodo: "Commander, I can explain it. Please listen to me..."

"Stop talking. This is a decision from above. Go away."

The commander ignored him completely.

Longkodo chased after him, but the commander simply shook him off. He had no choice but to leave the palace in disgrace, unable to bear the strange looks from everyone.

"boom!"

When he was almost at the mansion, he kicked a stone out of anger.

"Ah, it hurts!" A delicate female voice sounded, as if something had been hit.

Longkodo looked over quickly, and then he saw a beautiful woman lying on the ground.

Seeing him looking over, the woman, Li Si'er, looked at him charmingly, tears in her eyes: "Master..."

Longkodo stared with wide eyes.

In the distance, in a carriage, the old lady and Mrs. Hesheli witnessed this scene.

Madam Hesheli's eyes flickered slightly, and she said slowly: "Mother, that girl seemed to have been wandering around there just now..."

It is very obvious that it was aimed at Longkodo.
