Chapter 769: Wei Xiaobao (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the warm pavilion of Kunning Palace, Princess Jingning read the letter Su Xiaoxiao had written to her over and over again. The handwriting was pleasing to the eye, and the expression between the lines was comforting. The only regret was that there was nothing novel about the description of the Western Jin. She had seen it all in books.

However, when she thought about how Qin Su was going to Western Jin for a house call and not for a sightseeing trip, she was relieved.

“Jingning!”

Princess Hui An appeared valiantly at the door.

Unable to stop her, Taozhi panted as she followed beside her and glanced at Princess Jingning guiltily.

Princess Jingning knew that she could not blame Taozhi. This idiotic sister was used to relying on her father’s love to dominate in the palace. Who else could stop her?

Naturally, it was also because she had committed some sins that she was made to stay in Kunning Palace for a while, causing the servants of Kunning Palace to not dare to provoke her.

“What are you doing here?” Princess Jingning put away the letters on the table.

Princess Hui An came to her and looked at the letters on the table. She felt that there were not as many as hers. It was probably best to have a sidekick.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but want to show off.

Princess Hui An, who had her letter snatched away, was not angry at all. Instead, she smiled very wantonly. “How is it? Are you jealous? She’s my sidekick! Naturally, she wrote a lot and good things for me!”

Princess Jingning asked, “Are you sure she wrote these letters to you?”

Princess Hui An snorted. “If she didn’t write them, could it be you? Can’t you read? It’s signed Qin Su!”

Princess Jingning’s face turned cold as she slammed the letter on the table!

After Su Xiaoxiao left the palace, she immediately got into the carriage.

“Aiya, it’s already this hour. I wonder if Grandmother and the others have dispersed? The people of the Lu Public House probably won’t report it to the officials because the officials won’t dare to arrest Matriarch Wei. They can only report it to the imperial court. Emperor Jing Xuan will definitely summon me to the palace for questioning. I have to be prepared to be interrogated.”

As expected, the moment she returned to the Wei family, the people from the palace arrived.

Old Madam Wei asked her sisters-in-law to stay in the residence. Eunuch Quan said with a fake smile, “Seventh Young Madam, please go with me.”

“Okay.” Su Xiaoxiao followed Matriarch Wei into the palace.

In the Imperial Study, almost everyone from the Lu family was present. They were injured and crippled. Even Duchess Lu had a big bump on her forehead— the masterpiece of Wuhu.

Old Duke Lu was also present. He was about the same age as Qin Canglan and the Old Marquis, but he was clearly not as old as the two of them.

Behind him was Lu Zheng, whose right arm had been shot through, Madam Lu, whose makeup was smudged from crying, and their four bruised sons. Old Fifth had been sent flying by Madam Chen’s slap. He had yet to wake up and was lying in the residence.

Seeing how miserable this family was, Old Madam Wei paused and whispered to Su Xiaoxiao, “Did we hit them too hard?”
