MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 23 He left her for that woman again

Chapter 23 He abandoned her for that woman again

It started to rain again outside, at first it was drizzling, but after a while the rain got stronger and made a crackling sound on the cabin.

There was a constant sound of rain outside the cabin, and there was also a cloud and rain inside the cabin.

 The two of them lay together hugging each other afterwards.

Li Ling listened to the sound of rain outside and said to Jingshu: "It's raining so hard. I won't let you get exposed to the rain when I go back. Why don't we spend the night here today."

On such a rainy night, it is naturally very interesting for the newlyweds to stay in a boat together.

Jingshu agreed, buried her head in Li Ling's arms and fell asleep peacefully.

The night was getting darker, and the two of them were sleeping soundly. Suddenly, they heard someone calling urgently from outside: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you in there?"

　　is Liang Jin’s voice.

 Li Ling listened quickly and stood up quickly.

Jing Shu was also woken up and couldn't help but ask: "It's so late, what happened to Liang Jinxun?"

Li Ling replied as he was getting dressed: "Maybe something went wrong. Just stay here and I'll go out and take a look."

With that said, Li Ling was fully dressed and was about to walk out.

Jingshu quickly got down to the ground, handed the umbrella to him, and said, "It's raining heavily outside, so take it with you."

Li Ling took the umbrella and said, "I'll come as soon as I go. You go back and rest first."

Jing Shu sat on the couch and waited for a long time without seeing Li Ling return. She couldn't rest assured and was about to go out to look for him when she heard the cabin door creak.

 A woman wearing a raincoat came in.

The woman took off the raincap, and Jingshu saw clearly that it was the boat woman.

The boatwoman saw Jingshu and greeted her with a smile.

Jingshu asked: "Why is my mother-in-law here?"

The boatwoman replied: "Master Liang came to look for the prince, and I brought him over in a small boat."

Jingshu looked outside and asked, "Where is the prince? Do you know what urgent matter Mr. Liang has to find him?"

The boatwoman wiped the rain off the old face with her sleeves and replied: "Master Liang will follow Mr. Liang in the boat and leave first."

 Li Ling is gone?

The boatwoman continued: "Something happened in the palace, and the prince rushed over in a hurry."

 Something happened in the palace?

Jingshu asked hurriedly: "Does mother-in-law know what happened in the palace?"

The boatwoman replied respectfully: "I was in a daze as I listened to Mr. Liang's words. It seems that the ninth princess in the palace has been poisoned."

 Sure enough, it’s Qingluan again!

Jing Shu's heart suddenly sank, but she asked unwillingly: "Mother-in-law heard it right, is the Ninth Princess poisoned? She is a princess, and she has someone to take care of her every day. How could she be poisoned?" ?”

The boatwoman smiled and replied: "I don't know the details. I only heard a few words from Mr. Liang." After a pause, she continued: "I have also stayed in the palace for many years, and these things are not the same." It’s not unusual.”

The harem is treacherous and treacherous, with intrigues, attacks, and frame-ups common. But Qingluan is just a princess, so who would harm her?

Jingshu asked dully: "Did the prince leave anything behind when he left?"

The mother-in-law replied: "The prince ordered me to take care of my wife, and said that I would wait until the rain stops tomorrow before sending her ashore."

Jingshu said calmly: "I understand, you can go down and rest."

But the woman had no intention of leaving. She stepped forward and said to please her: "I am worried about leaving my wife here alone in the dark. Please let me stay with my wife to relieve her boredom." The distance is getting closer. , Jingshu smelled the fishy smell of water on her body. She endured her nausea and replied: "I'm not afraid of the dark. It's late at night, so you should go down and sleep."

Seeing that Jingshu was determined to drive her away, the mother-in-law reluctantly left, taking three steps and looking back.

Jingshu sat on the couch blankly, feeling empty in her heart.

 The charming atmosphere of joy and love still lingers in the house. A moment ago, they were still in love with each other, and in the blink of an eye, he abandoned her again for that woman.

 Not even a word of farewell.

　　With bursts of rumbling thunder, the rain outside became heavier and heavier.

 Thunder, heavy rain, and such a terrifying late night, she thought of her husband desperately running towards another woman in a hurry.

Her heart throbbed.

Jingshu lay on her back on the bed, trying hard to hold back her tears, but the more she endured, the more her tears flowed out unsatisfactorily.

The ticking sound made the pillow wet.

Drowsily, Jingshu vaguely heard the cabin door being opened again. Jingshu sat up suddenly and vaguely saw a black figure coming in. She was so frightened that her heart pounded, and she had the courage to ask: " who is it?"

 “Don’t be afraid, madam, I’m old.”

 It’s the boatwoman again.

"It's so late, what's the matter?" Jing Shu quickly wiped the tears from her face and asked.

The boatwoman came forward, carefully opened the gauze curtain, looked at Jingshu who was sitting on the couch and said: "There is thunder outside, I am worried that you will be scared."

As she said that, she sat down beside the couch.

Jing Shu didn't expect that the mother-in-law would come to her bed and smell the nauseating smell coming from her body. She felt very unhappy and said with a wooden face: "I'm not afraid of thunder, mother-in-law." Get out."

The woman had a smile on her old face and said flatteringly to Jing Shu: "The water vapor on the boat is heavy. Madam has a delicate body, but she must not catch a cold. I made **** tea for Madam all night, and Madam took advantage of it." Just drink it hot."

With that said, the woman went down to the table and brought out a night of yellow soup and handed it to Jingshu.

Jingshu took it and politely thanked her mother-in-law.

For some reason, Jingshu felt uncomfortable when she was with this mother-in-law. She said to her: "Mother-in-law, go down and have a rest. I'm going to sleep."

The old lady smiled at her, showing her incomplete old teeth, and said, "I'll step aside now." After she stood up, she turned to stare at the soup bowl in Jing Shu's hand, and said, "Ma'am, while it's hot, Drink the tea and then go to sleep."

Jingshu nodded and urged: "Mother-in-law, please leave quickly."

After the woman left, Jingshu put the soup bowl back, locked the cabin door from the inside under her clothes, and then lay back on the couch.

  She closed her eyes and forced herself not to think about those things, but she felt extremely depressed.

 She simply sat up again, leaning on the soft pillow with her quilt wrapped around her body, listening to the wind and rain outside.

 In the haze, the hatch creaked, as if someone was coming in.

 She had obviously locked the door.

Jingshu was so shocked that her hair stood on end. Just as he was about to bravely get up and go down to the ground to take a look, he saw that the bed curtain was suddenly lifted.

"Ah! Who?" Jing Shu exclaimed.

The man didn't expect that Jingshu was still awake and trembled.
