Just as Qiao Liangjin was about to open her mouth, Guo Caiting lightly patted him on the back of her hand and said to Qiao Xinting who was standing beside her, "Ting'er, go make dinner with Qing. In a while, ask for some food from the big stove for Eldest Miss to eat."

Qiao Xinting agreed and led Ah Qing out the door. Qiao Liangjin also turned her head and gave Zi Yan a look. Zi Yan also followed him out the door.

After closing the door, Qiao Liangjin asked, "Aunt, do you know what's going on?"

Guo Caiting smiled indifferently and said, "If you want to return to the Prime Minister's Estate, you must think of a way. A simple chill will heal in a few days. Only poison will not be able to heal you for a long time."

Qiao Liangjin didn't expect Guo Caijing to poison him herself. Her brows slightly raised as she asked, "Why did you poison yourself?"

"Miss, you need someone by your side. Eldest Young Master isn't someone who can help you. Although I'm weak on my own, I can still help you." Guo Caiting's tone was extremely sincere.

Qiao Liangjin was silent. She knew that Guo Caiting was once the servant of her body's mother, but because she was favored, she became Third Aunt. However, she had always wondered if her mother's death was related to this woman in front of her.

Seeing Qiao Liangjin fall into silence, Guo Caiting struggled to sit up. She was already sweating profusely from just moving around. Qiao Liangjin did not say anything and just helped her sit up.

Guo Caiting rested for a moment before continuing, "First Miss, I know what you're thinking …"

Qiao Liangjin bit her lips and replied, "I didn't think of anything. Since I'm back, Third Madame should just take care of her body and not think of anything else. If you really want to help me, then you must take back the power in her hands."

Guo Caiting stared blankly for a moment, then nodded heavily.

Qiao Liangjin walked in front of the desk, picked up a pen and paper, wrote down a prescription, then passed it to Guo Caiting, sighing, "Third Aunt, if you want to come back, you only need to tell me. The poison you administered to yourself today will sooner or later harm you, why must it …"

A trace of guilt flashed across Guo Caiting's eyes, and then she gave a shallow smile, "Rest assured Young Miss, I know what I'm doing with this poison."

This caused Qiao Liangjin to be a little surprised, but Guo Caiting softly explained, "Ting Er is the daughter of Shu, so in the future, she will naturally marry him and become his concubine. So I asked her to learn more about cooking, but I hope it will be of some help to her in the future."

Her words made Qiao Liangjin feel a little sad. She knew very well what being a concubine meant in this dynasty that valued status. It was impossible for her to stand against the entire society alone, but she would work hard and try to change the fate of the people around her bit by bit.

Qiao Xinting happily picked up a stack of vegetables and placed it into the small bowl in front of Qiao Liangjin. She said with sparkling eyes, "Big sis, quickly try it. The taste is really good. My mom always said that my cooking skills are very good."

Qiao Liangjin nodded her head and raised her chopsticks, carefully tasting this seemingly simple meal.

When they returned to the Flowermoney Pavilion from the Ning Xin Garden, Qiao Liangjin didn't say a word. She just silently leaned on her chair and thought about everything.

She always felt that there was a line leading to everything, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get a clue. After thinking for a long time, her mood became even more chaotic.

Zi Yan put the tea in her hand on the tea table beside her, but Qiao Liangjin barely touched it. Only when Yu Sheng's voice came from the beauty bed did Qiao Liangjin regain her senses and gulp down the cold tea in one gulp.

She put on her cloak and walked out of the Flower Glow Pavilion, heading straight for Qiao Zheng's study.

Arriving at the door of the study, Qiao Liangjin lightly knocked twice before she heard her voice from inside: "What is it?"

She coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and said softly, "Father, it's me."

The door opened, and the gentle face of her chastity appeared in front of Qiao Liangjin. She seemed to be surprised that Qiao Liangjin would come to the study at this time.

Qiao Liangjin slightly nodded towards her, then she greeted her and went straight into the study.

It looked like Qiao Zheng was playing chess with Zhen Zhen Xin. Seeing Qiao Liangjin walk in, he waved his hand and said with a smile, "Come, Jin'er, play chess with father."

Qiao Liangjin's head exploded the moment she saw this black chess piece. In her previous life, besides drawing and writing, she didn't know anything else, especially this chess piece.

"Master said he has nothing to do today, so he asked me to play chess with him. I don't understand what's going on with this game. Jin'er, you often play chess with your father to amuse yourself. Go play chess with Master, I'll go back and rest first."

He wanted to leave, but he didn't move his feet at all. He seemed to want to see how Qiao Liangjin would play chess.

Qiao Liangjin sat right in front of Qiao Zheng, looking at the chessboard. The entire Astral Plate was filled with chess pieces, how was she going to play? She turned her head to the side to look at Zhen Yuxin who said she was leaving, and asked: "Madame, didn't you say you were leaving? Why hasn't she gone back yet? I wanted to talk to my father about something. "

Chastity's face changed, but she still maintained her smile and said, "That's fine, then I'll go back first."

Qiao Liangjin cursed silently in her heart: A b * tch with a scheming mind.

Qiao Zheng saw that Qiao Liangjin was holding onto a chess piece the whole time and knew that Qiao Liangjin must have something on her mind. He prepared to take the chess pieces back one by one and asked, "Jin'er, what's the matter?"

"Third Madame is back. I'm going to see her today." Joy filled Qiao Liangjin's heart, and she casually placed the chess piece on the board.

Qiao Zheng was flabbergasted when he saw the position beneath the chess piece. He didn't reply for a long time.

Qiao Liangjin tilted her head and waved her hand in front of Qiao Zheng, asking, "Father, what's with your expression? A stroke? "

Qiao Zheng slapped her hand and scolded in a low voice, "How old are you? Nonsense." "However, your chess game is too perfect. I'll go to the Military Department tomorrow to play this game of chess with Mr. Shang Shu."

Qiao Liangjin stared at the board in a daze. She couldn't even remember where her chess piece had come from. How did it become a good chess piece? She laughed and said with an unfathomable manner, "Father, I'll teach you this time. There won't be any more opportunities in the future, so you must remember this well."

Qiao Zheng rubbed his chin and nodded his head. He kept the chess piece and continued to ask: "Just now you said that you went to see Cai Ting. What happened?"

"There's no fire dragon in her house, is there?"

"I remember telling Chong Xin to put it in every yard."

Qiao Liangjin smiled slightly, a faint smile on his face as she stared at Qiao Zheng's face.

Qiao Zheng was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "Alright, I will go to Tranquil Heart Garden tonight. As for what it is like, I will know tomorrow."

Then, Qiao Liangjin put away her fake smile and quickly stood up. She walked towards the door and then turned around and said: "Dad, there seems to be too many things you don't know about this Xiang Fu. I used to be too lazy to care about it, but that doesn't mean I don't know about it. Father, there must be a lot of things.

Qiao Zheng looked at Qiao Liangjin silently and nodded his head thoughtfully.

Qiao Liangjin turned around and swaggered out of the study door. As she walked, he sang loudly, "The King has called me to patrol the mountain. I'm going to take a walk in the human world …"

The next day, while Qiao Liangjin was washing her face, she heard from Ruo Lan that Qiao Zheng had gone to the Tranquil Heart Garden last night and had angrily gone to the yard in the middle of the night. Now, the Chastity Heart was looking for someone to install a fire dragon for the Tranquil Heart Garden.

After saying what she had seen today, Ruo Lan smiled and said, "Miss, this move of yours is truly amazing. Let the lord take a look for himself."

Qiao Liangjin used the handkerchief to wipe her face and slowly said, "It's just because I'm a virgin, he thinks I'm the same. If it was Qiao Xinting who went last night, then Chastity Heart would have chased her away."

If Lan Xin was silent, then this would be the case for their young mistress. Her heart was as clear as a mirror, and nothing could be concealed from her.

After washing up, Qiao Liangjin left the room and stood in the snow. She closed his eyes quietly and breathed slowly. Her body was once again in a strange position as she enjoyed the smell of the snow.

A few more tsk-tsk sounds came from the wall.

She slowly withdrew her hand, shaking off the snowflakes on her cloak. She gestured towards the wall, turned around, and said to Bai, "It will clear up in a few days. Remember to find a bricklayer to raise this wall."

The voice on the wall laughed. "Miss Qiao, how high do you think the wall can block me?"

Qiao Liangjin lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, she shook his head and said, "No, forget it. Let's leave that money. Bai, remember to spend the money on repairing the wall and make some winter clothes for Qiao Xinting."

After instructing Bai, Qiao Lianjin smiled at the wall, "The Eastern Kingdom has sent a written challenge to the Southern Kingdom. They have already started to head south. Why haven't you gone back yet?"

The dark blue figure on the wall lightly jumped down from the high wall and walked step by step towards Qiao Liangjin. He walked until he was in front of Qiao Liangjin and looked down at her from above.

"Oh? "You're welcome, no need to thank me for what I've done." Qiao Liangjin smiled lightly. He let the snow fall on her face.

Nan Li looked at Qiao Liangjin's smile and smiled bitterly: "I really need to thank you. If it wasn't for you shouting, Nan Li wouldn't have had the chance to go back and fight in the commander army. It's just that my sister might still be here."

"So?" Qiao Liangjin's expression remained indifferent. However, there was a hint of coldness in the depths of her eyes. She did not think that it was a good thing for Nangong to remain here.

"So if Nangong offends you, please don't kill her. I will think of a way to bring her back to the Southern Kingdom." Nan Li looked earnestly into Qiao Liangjin's eyes.

Qiao Liangjin raised her long eyebrows and the smile on her face finally became a bit warmer. She stretched out three fingers and said: "Okay, I promise you. "Three times, I gave her three chances. If you don't kill her, then if she still gains an inch, then please don't blame me, Sixth Prince."
