As soon as Qi Lang returned home, he was taken over by Lin's maid. Lin was sitting on a chair with a serious expression. Seeing Feng Guang Jiyue's son hurried in, she felt both proud and angry.
Her son has always been a sensible person, and since they got engaged, he has dismissed all the maids in the house. If it was said that he deliberately provoked the girls from Prince Jin's family, Mrs. Lin would not believe it for the first time.
"Mother is anxious to call her son back, but something happened?" Qi Lang had already learned from his subordinates the purpose of Princess Jin's visit to the Hou Mansion before meeting Lin.
However, he did not show it, but acted as if he knew nothing.
"Let me ask you, what is going on between you and Princess Anyang?"
The tone of this question made Qi Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Mother, this is a misunderstanding. I took Tongtong to horse racing a few days ago, and Prince Jin and Princess Anyang were also there. Princess Anyang wanted to teach Tongtong how to ride a horse. Unexpectedly, their horses were frightened. Their son was originally going to save Tongtong, but it was Princess Anyang who rushed into the forest, so... "
Lin was silent, this kind of thing cannot be said to be her son's fault. Saving people is like putting out fires. How can we ignore human lives just because men and women are on guard
"Princess Jin came here today with the intention of letting you marry Princess Anyang. Although I pushed her away, I'm afraid it's not a long-term solution. What are your plans?"
After hearing what Lin said, Qi Lang's expression remained unchanged, but his palms clenched into fists, "Did Princess Jin threaten my mother?"
Mrs. Lin shook her head, "It's not a threat, but I'm just using some of Gu Yong's secrets to talk about the matter." After saying that, she sneered, "Then Mrs. Huang didn't marry a concubine to the Gu family for nothing. I got this information Really careful."
After all, she is also a Marquis, with a mother-in-law who looks down on her. For so many years, Yongning Hou has not had a second woman by his side. Naturally, it is not only because of the deep love between Yongning Hou and Yongning Hou, but also because of many tricks and calculations.
Huang thought that saying this would shake her, but she didn't know that she was just laughing at the other person's joke.
What Huang said may be true, but it may not all be true. What really made her hesitate was Princess Jin's attitude. Although Prince Jin was not the Queen Mother's legitimate son, he had a deep relationship with her. If Prince Jin really wanted to marry his daughter, there were many ways to do it, not to mention just an engagement, but also a marriage. Let his son marry An
Princess Yang.
"There is no need for mother to worry about this matter. My son will make arrangements for it. My marriage to Tongtong has been decided for a long time. We will definitely not terminate the engagement because of some unrelated people. Mother can rest assured." Qi Lang said firmly, and Mrs. Lin felt relieved. Come.
"Don't worry if your waiter comes in person, but Princess Anyang is the legitimate daughter of the King of Jin after all, so you have to be sensible."
"My son understands."
Qi Lang calmed down Mrs. Lin with only a few words. Seeing that her face was not good, he quickly asked the maid to help her go back to rest.
Mrs. Lin was already weak. She had been busy all morning and had not rested. She also suffered some stimulation and could not bear it for a long time, so she listened to her son and went back to her room to rest.
After she left, the smile on Qi Lang's face completely disappeared, and his body was so cold that the steward who was waiting on the side was frightened.
His eldest son has never been a handsome young man who cherishes beauty and beauty, that is, he is different in front of his wife and Miss Gu. The steward couldn't help but secretly sympathized with Princess Anyang in his heart.
It's better that the princess can't get married, but if she succeeds by luck and ruins the marriage between the prince and Miss Gu, I'm afraid she won't have a good life in the future.
He has done more than just one private thing for the Crown Prince. He has seen too much what happens to the women who once followed the Crown Prince in an attempt to gain a higher position. From the beginning to the end, the only one who could make the Crown Prince treat him carefully is Gu Mingmo. .
"Ze'an, I heard that Uncle Zhongyong has a son?" Qi Lang's indifferent voice sounded, and the steward Ze'an suddenly became alert.
"Yes, I heard that Uncle Zhongyong only had such a bastard, and his wife, Mrs. Huang, gave birth to two daughters one after another, and she had nothing to produce."
"So... you go down first."
"Yes, I will resign."
After all the servants were sent away, Qi Lang sat alone on a chair. The breeze blew, and a faint fragrance of flowers floated into his nose. He half-squinted his eyes and recalled what happened at the racecourse that day.
Just the fact that Gu Mingmou and Shen Ying frightened their horses one after another was a bit strange, and then someone deliberately sent the wrong news, forcing him to save Shen Ying. Because the third prince was there that day, he did not intervene in the investigation. When he went there later, he could no longer find any clues.
Now that Princess Jin came to visit again, he had to suspect that all this was done by the two brothers and sisters Shen An.
There was a play arranged, and perhaps the third prince played a big role in it.
He knew early on that Shen Ying was interested in him, but he didn't expect that the brother and sister were capable enough to persuade Princess Jin. Princess Jin's behavior naturally represented Prince Jin's attitude.
If Tongtong didn't exist, he wouldn't mind marrying King Jin's legitimate daughter as his wife, but there weren't so many what-ifs in the world.
I just hope that the people in Prince Jin's Mansion will listen to his advice, otherwise I can't blame him for being cruel.
Princess Jin had just returned from the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Before she entered the main room, she saw her daughter coming towards her, full of expectancy.
"Mother, you are back." Shen Ying blinked and hesitated, wanting to ask but not daring to ask.
Princess Jin sighed helplessly, reached out to pluck a petal from her hair, and said in a much softer tone, "Why are you standing outside when it's so hot?"
Shen Ying stepped forward and hugged Princess Jin's arm and said coquettishly, "Isn't my daughter waiting for her mother-in-law?"
"You." Princess Jin reached out and tapped Shen Ying's forehead, "I have already gone to say hello to the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Mrs. Lin is still a little unhappy, but it is not her turn to make the decision in this matter."
When mentioning the Yongning Marquis Mansion, Princess Jin spoke lightly. If her daughter hadn't been determined to marry Qi Lang, and her son had repeatedly assured that Qi Lang was good in character and appearance, and was even highly appreciated by the emperor, she might not have been willing to nod. .
Now that her prince has agreed, this matter will definitely happen. Even if they are not willing to agree now, they will have to agree in the future.
"But will this make the people of Yongning Houfu unhappy?" Shen Ying bit her lower lip and hesitated.
She really likes Qi Lang, and naturally she doesn't want to offend her future mother-in-law before she even walks in.
"So what if you don't like it. You are the legitimate daughter of Prince Jin. How dare she show off to you even though she has a broken family?" Princess Jin sneered. She saw Lin's perfunctory behavior today. That is to say, the Marquis of Yongning could like her. A sick and weak woman, instead of being able to do anything for her husband, would prevent other women from getting close to her. In her opinion, this woman had lost her moral character.
If her daughter hadn't been rescued by Qi Lang and wanted to marry him, how could she like such a family
With the current status of the prince in the heart of the emperor, it would be unreasonable for her daughter to marry a prince.
