"Yes, the prince thinks it's better to let me explain this matter clearly. After all, I was there at that time, and I even helped to send her off." Ji Hai looked at Qu Moying pitifully, hoping that his princess could understand what he meant. "In fact, the relationship between the prince and Miss Tong has always been average."
"Then why do we ask you to explain it specifically?" Qu Moying asked with a smile.
Seeing that she looked peaceful and not angry, Ji Hai secretly wiped a cold sweat. The princess was so nice and listened to him. He was afraid that he would be kicked out by the princess before he could say a few words, and then he would have to go back to receive punishment.
The princess was indeed not an ordinary person. She was smarter than ordinary women and was not blinded.
She is indeed my princess, and only a princess like her is worthy of me.
"At the very beginning, the emperor wanted the prince to marry Miss Tong. After I pushed it, the emperor repeatedly said that he would issue an edict later. I just said, let's wait and see, and the emperor slowed down the matter. However, judging from the behavior of the Duke Jingguo's Mansion later, they must have known about this matter."
Ji Hai told Qu Moying in detail what happened that year.
Although Pei Yuanjun refused at that time, he still did what he had to do later. The Jingguo Mansion was willing to make this marriage happen, and Miss Tong also wanted to get close to Pei Yuanjun. Pei Yuanjun naturally didn't care. He had already felt that the Jingguo Mansion was inappropriate at that time, and he would not distance himself from it.
Therefore, in the eyes of some so-called "insiders" at the time, Pei Yuanjun and Miss Tong were a perfect match and might get married after a while.
Miss Tong also became the only person who could get close to Pei Yuanjun and talk to him.
Pei Yuanjun's reputation as an evil star allowed Miss Tong to get close to him. In the eyes of others, Pei Yuanjun was in love with this most beautiful woman.
Besides, Miss Tong was not only beautiful but also very talented. At that time, Liu Jingyu and Ji Hanyue were both young, so naturally Miss Tong, who was at the peak of her career, was more outstanding.
"Princess, my master really doesn't care about Miss Tong. The reason I let her say a few words at that time was because of Duke Jingguo. In the end, our master found out some things and sent them to the emperor, and then the emperor discovered the truth that Duke Jingguo's mansion was colluding with the enemy." Ji Hai said.
Qu Moying: “…”
So the affairs of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion are related to Pei Yuanjun
"Princess, my master wants to ask you what you want to do with this maid." Seeing Qu Moying's calm expression and thinking that she believed him, Ji Hai hurriedly tried to curry favor with her.
"Your Highness doesn't need to intervene in the matter of that maid." Qu Moying shook her head. Since the matter had spread to the backyard, it would be better for her to handle it.
Although she believed in Pei Yuanjun, she didn't want Pei Yuanjun to have too much contact with Miss Tong.
She didn't care what Pei Yuanjun thought at the beginning. Now Pei Yuanjun was her husband, so naturally it was her turn to lend a hand.
Sure enough, he came to his own house to make himself familiar.
"However, you are still needed in this matter." Qu Moying continued.
"Your Highness, please tell me, as long as it is something I can do, I will do it even if it means death." Ji Hai said hurriedly. As long as the princess did not misunderstand the prince, he would be willing to do anything.
If the prince is in a good mood, I will be fine too.
The maid stood in front of the lotus pond for a long time without leaving.
I looked in the direction the King of England had taken when he left. He should have returned by now, but there was no movement at this time. Could it be that he didn't recognize me
How is this possible? When I was with the young lady, I saw His Royal Highness the King of England many times. The King of England was deeply in love with his young lady at that time, and he even risked his life to save his young lady. With such deep affection, how could the King of England not recognize me
Yes, it must be the current British princess. Even if the British king does not care about the British princess, he cannot make a fuss about this matter. In the end, it may be his own lady who suffers.
The Jingguo Mansion is no longer there, and the young lady is no longer the Miss Tong.
When I think of the sad things, my heart feels sad.
Over the years, although the young lady has lived a relatively good life, it is not the same as the original Jingguo Mansion, so how can she be so happy? Miss Liu has fallen in love with the King of England, and although her own young lady feels aggrieved, she still has to help and give advice.
Fortunately, the prince is nostalgic. He has not found a princess for all these years and has been waiting for his own lady. However, he did not expect that the lady from the Qu Mansion would take the lead. If his own lady was still in the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion now, she would have become the Princess of England long ago, and there would be no place for the lady from the Qu Mansion.
Thinking about it now, I feel more and more that the young lady was wronged.
My young lady is a fairy, but she has to suffer such a thing. Compared with other people, the King of England is the one in my young lady's heart. But the world is unpredictable. The original match has become like this...
While I was daydreaming, I suddenly saw someone coming up the road I had been on.
The maid had sharp eyes and spotted Ji Hai at a glance. She came out from the shadows excitedly and waved a handkerchief to signal Ji Hai.
Ji Hai looked around and didn't see anyone else, so he trotted over.
As soon as he saw her, his face darkened and he scolded, "Why are you here?"
"This servant... This servant came here with our young lady." The maid's eyes were red, she felt very aggrieved. She had spoken a few words to Ji Hai before, and even after so many years, she still recognized him at a glance.
I believe the same is true for Ji Hai.
"Has your young lady come to Beijing?" Ji Hai asked with a frown.
The maid nodded vigorously: "Our young lady has had a very hard time in the past few years. She has been living in a relative's house, hiding her identity... She has suffered for so many years, and now her relative's family can't make ends meet anymore. They are forcing the young lady to get married, but the young lady is unwilling and would rather become a nun. I... I had no choice but to persuade our young lady to return to the capital, where at least the prince is."
The maid started to cry.
Ji Hai looked at the maid coldly, which made her wipe away her tears uncomfortably and tentatively called out, "Eunuch Ji Hai..."
"Things in the Duke Jingguo's Mansion are still the same. Isn't your young lady afraid that she may lose her life if she returns to Beijing?" Ji Hai asked coldly.
"Our young lady... is infatuated with the prince. She said that even if she lost her life because of this... at least she could see the prince once before she died, which is worth it. I had no choice but to... sneak into the palace to ask the prince to see our young lady. Our young lady... is not in good health, depressed, and sick again."
The maid's eyes were filled with tears, but she didn't dare to cry this time.
"Have you called a doctor?" Ji Hai's expression softened a little.
"No, we...we didn't have much money to begin with, and that family...and they wanted to let Xiao
My elder sister wants to get married, but my young lady doesn't want to... I don't have any money left. I finally came to Beijing, but now I am penniless." The maid said with red eyes.
Whether hearing these words or seeing the maid's appearance in front of him, he felt that she was extremely pitiful.
The beauty in distress was once very loyal and any man would lend a helping hand. But now she is bedridden, and it is because of this reason.
"Tell me where your young lady lives, and I'll ask the doctor to come and check your young lady's condition. You can't stay here any longer. If someone finds out... your young lady's life will be in jeopardy." Ji Hai thought for a moment and said.
"Yes... this servant... this servant will listen to Eunuch Ji Hai." The maid wiped her eyes and said obediently, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
As long as the prince is willing to take care of his young lady, as long as the prince can come to see the young lady, that's enough.
Anyone who sees the young lady's current situation will feel sorry for her.
The young lady has always been in the prince's heart. He would have protected the young lady when she left at that time. Although the matter of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion has not been rehabilitated, times have changed and the King of England has become more powerful. With him protecting the young lady, it doesn't matter even if the young lady is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion.
I heard that the Queen of England was born with a good fate for the King of England. From now on, she will just be a decoration and will not count for anything.
"What's up with your cousin over there? Is she also your young lady's person?" Ji Hai asked again.
"No, that person really thought I was her cousin. I came here as her cousin. Her mother was greedy for money and felt sorry for us, so she helped the young lady and was willing to let me come in and help for a few days. The wages will be calculated for me separately then." The maid explained in a low voice.
There were actually some loopholes in this statement, but Ji Hai didn't ask and the maid didn't explain any further.
Now that things have come to this, the matter has been decided. The maid's purpose of entering the mansion was to attract the King of England's attention and tell him that her young lady had come to Beijing and her situation. Now, since Eunuch Ji Hai has agreed to hire a doctor for his young lady, it means that this is the Prince's intention.
Even if Ji Hai was very powerful, he would not dare to do such a thing on his own. If the King of England knew about it, he would not be able to get enough heads to chop off even if he had ten.
So, this must be what the King of England meant.
She knew that the prince would not ignore his own lady, nor would he forget who he was.
After breathing a sigh of relief, the maid took a large ingot of silver from Ji Hai and left, but she didn't expect that Ji Hai would not handle things on his own, but the master behind him is not only the King of England, but also a Queen of England.
But even if the maid thought of this, she would not believe that the Princess of England could really order Ji Hai around. Ji Hai was the most trusted confidant of the King of England and the most useful person, not an ordinary eunuch.
Pinching the large piece of silver on her cuff, the maid couldn't help showing a hint of pride, not caring that her eyes were still red. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and lowered her head quickly.
After saying goodbye to Ji Hai with a tense face, the maid left.
Ji Hai looked at her receding back, his eyes narrowed slightly. As the princess guessed, this Miss Tong really had entangled with his own prince. He really didn't know what these people were thinking. If his own prince was really in love with this Miss Tong, such a thing would never have happened in the Jingguo Mansion, and Miss Tong would never have left like this...
Many people really think they are...
