Chapter 170 Everything has a cause and effect

The painting corner told the truth. Although the signature on that day was not good, it was not the worst.

Xue Jin frowned and shouted: "Are you implying that I drew a bad lot? You want to say that because I drew a bad lot, my mother is no longer here, right?"

Her voice was a little loud, and it sounded like she was having an argument.

Huajiao waved his hand and said, "Ms. Xue, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that."

The lot Xue Jin drew was indeed bad, but it had nothing to do with her mother's death. Hua Jiao knew that and naturally wouldn't think so.

"You are obviously talking about me!" Xue Jin shouted loudly, suddenly covering her face and crying. While crying, she looked at Princess Jing'an, "Sister Linlang, please comment."

Princess Jing'an raised her eyebrows calmly and said with a slight smile: "Ms. Xue, this is your fault. Mrs. Jiang didn't mention your signature at all. It's just you who thought too much."

Xue Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard Princess Jing'an's words.

When her mother was alive, she was the goddaughter of the Queen Mother, and Princess Jing'an always respected her mother very much. She and Princess Jing'an were used to calling her sisters, so it was the first time she heard Princess Jing'an call her Lady Xue.

Xue Di, who was on the side, pulled Xue Jin, took out a piece of handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the tears from Xue Jin's face, and whispered: "Sister Jin, please stop messing around! Please apologize to Madam Jiang!"

Xue Jin glanced at Xue Di, and as expected he stopped making trouble. He bowed to the corner of the painting unwillingly and said, "Ms. Jiang, just now... I was reckless."

Huajiao didn't expect that Xue Jin actually obeyed Xue Di's words.

Xue Di also raised the wine cup and said: "Ms. Jiang, since my mother passed away, my sister-in-law has been depressed and suspicious. If I have offended you, please be patient. I punished myself with a drink, so I should apologize for her."

Xue Di raised the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Huajiao said: "It doesn't matter, the prince has spoken harshly. In fact, your sister probably blames herself for what happened to her. When a close relative passes away, people tend to have random thoughts. I can understand Madam Xue's mood."

Xue Jin glanced at Huajiao. It was probably because Huajiao's words had touched her mind that she lowered her head and said nothing.

King Liu'an sat in the banquet, watching the people quietly without saying anything. He poured a glass of wine, turned the cup around with his fingers, and suddenly said meaningfully: "Everything has a cause and effect."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the table became tense.

The meaning of Liu'an Wang's words is very clear, and it is easy for people to think that Li Yunshang's death was deserved.

Huajiao looked at Xue Jin and saw her looking at King Liu'an with an angry expression. She thought Xue Jin was going crazy again, but to her surprise, the corners of her lips sank and she actually endured it.

Huajiao smiled coldly in his heart. It seemed that Xue Jin's arrogance varied from person to person, and he was accustomed to bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Xue Di's expression was calm and he didn't even raise his eyebrows. He smiled at Li Cong, the king of Liu'an, and said, "What the prince said is absolutely true."

At this time, the door of the Yage room opened, and several attendants from Wangjiang Tower filed in holding trays and presented various dishes to the table.

Princess Jing'an greeted enthusiastically: "The wine and food are here. The wine and food at Wangjiang Tower are excellent, and they are no worse than those at Fengyang Tower in the city. Especially the lotus leaf chicken and steamed lotus seeds are Wangjiang Tower's famous dishes."

.”

Hua Jiao was very impressed and took a few mouthfuls. He smiled and said, "It's really delicious."

Princess Jing'an glanced at Yu Taiqing and saw that he was playing with the wine cup in his hand. He glanced at the corner of the painting from time to time, and she didn't know what he was thinking. She asked with a smile: "Master Du Supervisor, you are the host today, are you?"

Don’t regret it if you don’t try it.”

Yu Taiqing had not eaten for a day and was already hungry. However, after a trip to Bieyuan, she became a little worried.

At this time, when Princess Jing'an asked about it, she put down the wine cup in her hand, picked up her chopsticks, and said, "Since it is a signature dish, I naturally want to try it."

Huajiao asked with a smile: "How many of you live in a nearby villa?"

Xue Di picked up the wine cup, took a sip, and said softly: "Exactly."

Princess Jing'an raised her eyebrows and said, "I forgot, Madam Jiang doesn't have a private garden here, so are you going to stay in Wangjiang Tower tonight?"

Huajiao nodded.

Yu Taiqing asked: "How many days has Her Royal Highness the Princess stayed in Bieyuan?"

Princess Jing'an curled her lips, but looked at King Liu'an, and said dissatisfiedly: "Fourth uncle, look at him, he doesn't even call me cousin."

King Liuan smiled lightly and said, "Ah Qing has always been like this, don't argue with him."

He smiled warmly and asked Yu Taiqing: "You just said you had something to ask me. What was it about?"

Yu Taiqing put down his chopsticks and said: "It's not a big deal. I don't live in the other garden on weekdays. I went to take a look today and saw that the grass and trees in the back garden were growing wantonly. The houses in the front yard should also be repaired. I thought that in these two days

I ordered people to tidy up and renovate the house, for fear of disturbing your peace."

King Liu'an smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm not in the garden during the day. As long as you don't start work at night, it will be fine. You won't disturb me."

Princess Jing'an snorted and said: "Fourth uncle, you went to Qujiang Pond early in the morning to paint, or else you were playing chess with others in the pavilion, so naturally you won't be disturbed. But..." Princess Jing'an turned to Yu Taiqing, dissatisfied

He said quietly, "My villa is right in front of you. You don't know it. I don't get up early like my fourth uncle. I go to bed late at night and don't get up until noon. You'd better start work in the afternoon. Otherwise,

Whenever there is any movement in your place, it will disturb me."

Yu Taiqing smiled and said, "You may not be able to hear it."

Princess Jing'an frowned: "It's true. A few days ago, I heard some noise in your garden."

Yu Taiqing's eyes flickered, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "No one lives in my garden, so how could there be any movement? You must have heard wrong."

Princess Jing'an shook her head, counted her fingers, and said, "Since five days ago, there have been noises in your garden."

"Are you sure it started five days ago?" Yu Taiqing asked.

Princess Jing'an nodded.

Yu Taiqing glanced at the corner of the painting, and the two looked at each other tacitly.

Since that meeting in the West Market, Huajiao has been searching for his cousin for many days. It has been more than ten days since they tracked his cousin from Yi'er to the Qujiang Pond. However, at that time they did not find out which villa Jiang Ruyan was imprisoned in.

.

If Jiang Ruyan had been locked up in Yu Taiqing's villa, it would have been more than ten days.

However, Princess Jing'an said it was only five days.

The back of Wangjiang Tower faces Qujiang Pool.

At this time, cruise ships were swinging back and forth on the water, which was very lively.

On the water facing the rear window of Wangjiang Tower, there was a awning boat moored, with Zhang Huitou wearing a bamboo hat and sitting on the bow.

After a while, Tang Ning and Gong Shuyu protected the unconscious Jiang Ruyan from the window and fell onto the boat.

Zhang Hui waited for the two of them to place Jiang Ruyan, then took the oar and rowed towards the shore.
