The serious expression on Xiao Rui's face also frightened Jiang Wan, but she immediately understood what was going on.

She first sent off the rest of the people in the room, then gave Xiao Rui a calm look.

Originally, Xiao Rui wanted to personally ask about them, but when she thought about how Clove and Xia Yi were both Jiang Wan's people now, she scolded them in front of Jiang Wan. In the eyes of outsiders, it was as if she was making Jiang Wan lose face.

He thought for a moment. The best way would be to let Jiang Wan handle this matter.

So he nodded, got up, and moved to the other side of the main house.

Jiang Wan saw that Xiao Rui had already understood her meaning. She let Lun and Xia Yi stand up and stand by her side, then slowly said: "Do you two know where your faults lie today?"

Clove and Xia Yi both nodded.

Jiang Wan looked at the two of them with a smile, then looked at Lilac and said, "Tell me first."

"I... I shouldn't... "Burn the talisman within the house …" Clove licked her lips as she stuttered.

Jiang Wan also shook her head in disappointment, before looking at Xia Yi, "Do you think so as well?"

Xia Yi shook her head, then looked at Jiang Wan and said, "It's something we shouldn't have done in private."

Jiang Wan slightly sighed in her heart, thinking that although she brought the cloves herself, there were some things that she couldn't compare to Xia Yi and Lan Yi, who had been serving in the Jin Mansion all year round.

Xia Yi immediately understood the same thing, but Clove never understood what her mistake was.

She looked at Clove and said, "I presume that the matter that mother Han told you to do originally was not a good thing for you. That's why you wanted to hide it from us, right?"

Clove thought of what her mother had said to her before she came: Big families avoid these things, so be careful when you do things.

She nodded.

When Jiang Wan saw this, she turned her head towards Xia Yi: "She knows this isn't appropriate, but she's dragging you down to help. Not only did you not tell us, you even secretly helped her stand guard.

Xia Yi stood there without making a sound.

"You two are my servants, my right hand men, my eyes and ears …" Jiang Wan looked at the two of them and said, "But you two were unwilling to tell me even after receiving the news, and even helped me make the decision on my own accord …" "In that case, wouldn't I be blind, deaf, and lame?"

Hearing that, Clove turned pale with fright, shaking her head, "Madam, we definitely didn't have any intention of helping you make the decision. Xia Yi originally wanted to tell you and the Crown Prince about this, but I begged them not to make a sound. I told her that we also did it for the sake of the Lady and the Crown Prince. If you and the Crown Prince knew about it, you wouldn't blame us.

"If you want to punish me, then punish me alone …" "It really has nothing to do with Xia Yi …" At this point, Lingle kneeled down and kowtowed to Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan looked at Xia Yi, "Do you also think so?"

"No, ma'am." Xia Yi also knelt down beside Clove with a resolute look on her face. "Since I agreed to stand guard over Clove, that also means I approve of what Clove is doing." Now that she has made a mistake to be punished and I did not dissuade her in time, I want to be punished along with her. "

"Together?" Jiang Wan looked meaningfully at the two of them, "Do you think that this matter will be settled just by punishing them for a few months?" What if I want to expel you guys? "

Clove and Xia Yi both looked at Jiang Wan in astonishment, thinking to themselves, "Will Madame really chase them out of the Jin Duke's manor because of this matter?"

"Madam …" With a flustered expression, Clove took two steps forward and kneeled, then looked at Jiang Wan in disbelief.

"Do you know how to be afraid now?" Jiang Wan, who originally only wanted to scare the two of them, glanced at them indifferently, "Why didn't you know when you were doing it previously? Do you still dare to do that in the future? "

The moment she heard this tone, she knew that most likely, the rain had passed, so she hurriedly pulled Xia Yi and kowtowed to Jiang Wan, "We'll remember this. In the future, we won't make any decisions and will be your master."

Seeing that she was almost done with her words, she stopped reprimanding her, turned to look at the incense in the corner of the wall that was about to burn out, and said, "Earlier, you told me clearly that the crown prince and I might not not deny you the position of accepting the god of honor here. Right now, you're sneaking around as if we don't have enough respect for him, is there anything else we should pay attention to?"

"Yes, yes," Clove replied as her eyes lit up. "Mommy Han specifically told me before that it would be even better if you and the Crown Prince kowtowed three times in the direction of the god of happiness."

"Worship the god of celebration?" When Xiao Rui, who purposely avoided them before, saw Jiang Wan, she was slightly surprised.

With a bit of guilt, Jiang Wan replied, "Although saying that Lingzhu hid it from us and burnt the Talisman-Dollars in her room is wrong, but this is the same thought as you not hesitating to set up a new room. You're trying to give us a good omen that will last for a long time …"

While Jiang Wan was racking her brains to think of other reasons to persuade Xiao Rui, she heard him say: "Where is the God of Karma today?"

"Look at the calendar …" "We should be able to find out …" Jiang Wan said with a bit of uncertainty, but she felt a bit of sweetness in her heart.

There is nothing in this world that makes you happier than a man who makes concessions for you.

At this moment, the breeze was blowing gently inside the Lijing Xuan of the West Mountain's palace, causing the leaves outside the house to rustle.

Dressed in a silvery-white satin robe, Cui Yingying had a tranquil look on her face as she watched her daughter sleeping beside the bed. Her eyebrows were raised and her smile could be seen from the corner of her eyes.

"Xia He, look at her, how much does she look like the crown prince! In the future, you will definitely be lucky, "she said to Xia He who was standing beside the bed, full of joy," But this mouth. "It's just that she's like me. Little Qiao, you're so cute. I'm afraid you won't be able to speak properly in the future …"

Xia He looked down at his wet nurse, Lady Zhou, before carefully reminding her, "Empress, the young princess is already asleep. How about you let her carry her off the stage?"

Only then did Cui Yingying glance at Nanny Zhou, who had been standing there silently all this time. She indifferently said, "Let the young prefecture lord sleep here tonight."

Madame Zhou wore a clean set of cotton clothes, her fair and clean hair was very straight, but for some reason, when she saw Madame Zhou's somewhat familiar eyes, she felt displeased.

Madam Zhou's heart tightened when she saw this, and she looked at Xia He with a panicked expression.
