Chapter 280

To Ling Jingshu, this was an unmitigated disaster, and in her heart, she also developed some dissatisfaction and resentment towards Huang Taisun

-She had made her attitude clear a long time ago, never being ambiguous, much less ambiguous, and asked herself if there was anything that would cause him to misunderstand

He married Jiang Shuyue in a beautiful wedding ceremony, so he should respect and honor his wife, instead of lingering on her and embarrassing Jiang Shuyue in front of everyone

This move also pushed her into a predicament where she had no defense

She was full of grievances, but had nowhere to complain

Moreover, this kind of thing is the more you explain the less clear it is and the more you describe it, the darker it gets

The best way to deal with it is to turn a deaf ear and pretend not to know, waiting for this wave of rumors to spread, and then it will slowly calm down

Of course, this process will not be fast, at least have to stay up for a month or two

It was almost time for the peonies to bloom, and the hundreds of pots of peonies in the peony room needed to be carefully taken care of

She had to work in the peony room every day, and it was just the right time to avoid the flurry of rumors

Ling Jingshu thought bitterly while loosening the soil and trimming the branches and leaves of the peonies

Soon, her eyes fell on a pot of peonies

It was a pot of two-colored peony, also known as Luoyang Jin

There was indeed no lack of experts in growing peonies in the palace, and this kind of double-colored peony was very complicated to cultivate, to be cut and grafted and cultivated in August of the previous year

-After planting, it has to be carefully taken care of all the time, or else it will be hard to survive

Ling Jingshu had cultivated such a Luoyang brocade when she was in Dingzhou City, which could produce two colors of peonies on a single flower, with large flowers and bright colors, a rare treasure among peonies

I didn’t expect to see such a new peony after taking over the peony room, so I couldn’t help but favor it in my heart

These days, she took extra care of this Luoyang brocade

Loosening the soil, catching insects, pruning the branches and leaves, and moving them back and forth were all done by her own hands

This pot of Luoyang brocade growth is also really happy

The branches and leaves were green and flourishing, not to mention that the flower buds also bore five or six, and the buds were extraordinarily largeMistress Ling, it’s time to move these peonies out into the sun!

These rough jobs will be done by the slave girl, so Mistress Ling mustn’t do anything”

Hong Mei came over, smiling with an attentive face

It was human nature to praise the high and step on the low

Since the rumors spread in the palace, Hongmei’s attitude towards Ling Jingshu had become more and more warm

Ling Jingshu’s heart was a bit phobic, but her face didn’t show it, and she smiled faintly and said, “No need, these pots are rare treasures, and it looks like the flower season is coming up

Whether or not we can show up at the Flower Appreciation Banquet this year depends on how well these peonies bloom

-I’ll take care of them myself, and I won’t leave them to anyone else

You go out first and work with Bai Yu Qiaoyun to loosen the soil of those peonies outside”

Hongmei answered with a slight sarcasm

After Hong Mei left, Ling Jingshu quickly took out the porcelain bottle from the hidden pocket in her sleeve, carefully opened a few tiny buds, dripped in the potion one by one, and then capped the bottle and took it back to a faraway place

This series of movements was quick and sharp, and was completed in just a few breaths

In these few days, this porcelain bottle she had been hiding so close to her

Even Bai Yu didn’t know about it

After doing all this, Ling Jingshu was slightly relieved

In her heart, she secretly calculated the time

In another twenty days or so, these flower buds would grow and bloom

This bottle of potion would also be able to support the flowers until they bloomed

Just after putting away the porcelain bottle, Bai Yu hurriedly walked in, with some strange excitement in her expression, “Miss, just now a palace maid came over and talked about a novelty”

Ling Jingshu settled down and looked at Bai Yu with a smile, “Oh?

What novelty is it?”

Bai Yu laughed in a low voice, “I heard that it’s a palace maid in the Ling Bo Palace who has privately paired up with a chamberlain”

The chamberlain was a man who had been castrated, but any palace maid with a higher heart was not happy to pair-feed with a chamberlain

However, there were also some courtesans who were too lonely in the palace and privately paired up with a high status chamberlain

This kind of thing is actually not rare in the palace

Even if the master found out about it, he seldom asked about it

Ling Jingshu had been in the palace for a few months, and had grown quite a bit

Hearing this, she laughed unconcernedly, “This is not a rare thing, so why is it a big deal”

Bai Yu seemed to have some difficulty in speaking, her pretty face flushed red

Ling Jingshu’s curiosity was immediately piqued, “What’s going on?

Why did you stop talking halfway through?”

Bai Yu’s red face whispered, “This is also really too shameful, the slave girl is too embarrassed to open her mouth and say it”I heard that the palace maid is quite pretty and usually serves by the side of Auntie Jieyu

That chamberlain is also a dignified person in the Ling Bo Palace

The two of them often interact on weekdays, but no one thought much about it

I had no idea that last night, the chamberlain sneaked into the palace maid’s house, and the palace maid did some

Did some fake phoenix false phoenix thing, the sound of movement and was heard

Was caught in the act”

Bai Yu said more and more red face, voice is also lower and lower: “It is said to be found, the two people’s clothes are off most of the time, hugging, unbearable, want to deny also can not deny the past

After her majesty knew, she was very angry

Will two people each hit a board

This one beat down, at least also have to lie in bed for five or six days before getting out of bed”This kind of thing can’t be covered up even if you want to, no, it’s only half a day’s time, it’s spread”

Good things don’t go out the door, but bad things spread a thousand miles

Not to mention this kind of flavorful and flirtatious thing

Even Bai Yu, who had never been fond of gossip, couldn’t help but come to Ling Jingshu to talk about it after hearing about it

Ling Jingshu lost her smile for a few moments before admonishing, ”If this kind of thing spreads, it really isn’t nice to hear, and it also damages Aunt Jieyu’s face

It’s none of our business what others say

However, you and Qiaoyun shouldn’t follow the clouds”

Jieyu Wei had always treated her generously, they couldn’t follow and throw stones at her

Bai Yu busily smiled and responded, “That is, if Miss doesn’t command, the slave girl also knows the importance”

After a pause, she thankfully said, “The slave girl has been worried these days, the rumors about Miss are spreading, and I don’t know when they will stop

Fortunately, another incident like this has come out and attracted everyone’s attention”

Bai Yu’s thoughtless words, however, caused Ling Jingshu’s heart to stir

The rumors about her were in full swing, and then such a delightful “scandal” appeared in the Ling Bo Palace

In less than half a day, the rumor spread throughout the palace, drawing everyone’s attention to it

How in the world can there be such a coincidence?

Could it be that Wei Jieyu had secretly arranged this?

There was no better way to quell a rumor than to create another one that was even more sensational

What’s more, this was a peach-colored incident that was caught in the act

It was much more vivid than the speculation that Zi had no need to have
