When Concubine Yuan entered the Ling'anbo Mansion, the Ling'anbo Mansion was still in its heyday. How did Concubine Yuan get there
Not to mention whether the Xiao family could accommodate her, just look at her identity, which was not recognized at the time, so how did she get into the mansion, and keep it a secret from others.
This clearly shows that he is not going to admit it publicly, but is also trying to protect it.
So what was Ji Yongan and Xiao's plan at the time? Why did Concubine Yuan enter the palace like this, and why has no one discovered her relationship with the Ling Anbo Mansion until now
Given Xiao's personality, if she had known that there was such an illegitimate daughter, she would never have allowed her to survive, let alone give her the opportunity to enter the Ling Anbo Mansion.
The person who allowed Concubine Yuan to enter the Ling'an Marquis's Mansion and even threaten the Xiao family, and who made the Xiao family so hateful, must have someone behind the scenes. If Concubine Yuan's biological mother was so powerful, she would have been able to enter the Ling'an Marquis's Mansion directly. Besides, Concubine Yuan's biological mother died early. After checking the records of entering the palace, there was a record of her.
Coming to Ling Anbo's mansion so early, he must have already had feelings for Ji Hanyue.
Her watery eyes narrowed slightly. The second branch of the Ji family was really ambitious. The second uncle, who originally seemed mediocre, had actually taken such a step so early.
Daddy took care of the Ji family's second branch wholeheartedly, but he never expected that he would raise such a family of vicious and ungrateful people.
"Keep keeping an eye on Ji Yongan, did he go to Qingyun Temple? This matter is indeed related to Qingyun Temple!" Qu Moying said meaningfully, hiding the coldness in his eyes.
Qu Moying naturally found out that Ji Yongan had gone to Qingyun Temple because he had someone keep an eye on him.
Although I don't know who is inside, it is certain that it is the female nun from Qingyun Temple. The master of Qingyun Temple is indeed a restless person.
"I understand." An Dong stepped back.
Qu Moying touched the music score in front of him, slowly slid down, and finally pressed lightly on the strings. The strings were silent, with only a sigh...
"Master, Miss Xie is here." Yu Chun came in to report, with a frustrated look on her face as always, and it seemed that she was unwilling to come in to report.
"Please ask her to come in." Qu Moying nodded, as if thinking about something. She came so quickly. As soon as something happened to her step-father, she came to inquire about the news.
Before she married into the Qu family, she was already very much in tune with her adoptive father. They were indeed destined to be together.
Yuchun went downstairs and brought Xie Lian in.
“Greetings, Princess Ying.” Xie Lian bowed. Qu Moying raised her hand slightly, indicating that she didn’t need to bow.
After she sat down, Qu Moying asked, "Miss Xie, is there anything I can help you with?"
“I have already troubled Princess Ying a lot during this period of time. How dare I trouble you again?” Xie Lian shook his head and said softly. He looked a little shy, which really made people like him.
"It's what I should do. It's nothing." Qu Moying smiled.
“How can it be something that a princess should do? If there was no princess, I would be looked down upon now… or even if I enter in the future…. Princess, you have gone out of your way to give me face, I am so grateful and I feel ashamed to accept it.” Xie Lian said repeatedly.
"Miss Xie, you are so polite. Since my father and grandmother have asked me to handle this matter, they must trust me. I can't let both you and the Qu family lose face." Qu Moying said softly, with her attitude as gentle as ever.
Xie Lian stole a glance at Qu Moying, and seeing that her face was gentle, he seemed to be relieved. He moved his body slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"I heard before that...something happened, and I was afraid that these things would implicate the princess."
"Father's matters?" Qu Moying raised his eyebrows.
“This… the Madam sent a gift over before, and when I received it, I heard from the maidservant beside the Madam… that… something happened, and I… I’m worried about this…” Xie Lian said with red eyes. Her timid look made people think that what she said was true.
She was genuinely worried about Qu Zhizhen and the Qu family, and it also explained why she knew about this matter.
Qu Moying pursed her lips lightly, a cold smile flashed in her eyes. Xie Lian still treated her grandmother as the same grandmother as before. She had made it clear before that it was good enough that her grandmother did not send anyone to ask her questions, so why would she send someone to give her a gift
Of course, if this question were really asked, I believe Xie Lian would definitely have an answer, after all, his stepfather was there to cooperate with her.
Asking too many questions will only make them suspicious.
"It'll be okay." Qu Moying comforted her softly.
“Of course she’ll be fine. I heard… I heard that even the Emperor reprimanded her, and now she’s… she’s no longer a minister.” Xie Lian’s face flushed. She was an unmarried girl, so it was naturally embarrassing for her to be so concerned about her husband’s family.
However, Qu Moying was originally a daughter of the Qu family and had always been kind to Xie Lian, so no matter how embarrassed she was, she still told the whole story.
After finishing speaking, he deliberately raised his eyes, looked at Qu Moying with shyness and sorrow, and begged: "Princess, can you save my lord?"
"Thank you, father?" Qu Moying looked at him with eyes trembling slightly, and he looked frightened. "Father, is there anything you need to save?"
“I was thinking if I could get the King of England to help His Majesty explain, would that be a relief? I heard that the Emperor thinks highly of His Majesty the King of England, and that a single word from the King of England would be worth ten or a hundred words from others.” Xie Lian’s voice got softer as he spoke, twisting the handkerchief in his hand and lowering his head timidly, “Princess, I’m sorry, it’s… I lost my temper… I shouldn’t have said that, I… I was just too worried.”
"Miss Xie, don't worry, everything will be fine." Qu Moying said slowly.
“Really…really?” Xie Lian raised his head again and asked anxiously.
"I mentioned this matter to our prince..." Qu Moying paused here.
“Then… then what happened?” Xie Lian could no longer sit still. She hadn’t heard this news from the adults yet, and she hadn’t expected to hear such truth.
"Your Highness means that it is a small matter. It is best to let Prince Jing mention it. It is not convenient for him to mention such a small matter. After all, he married me." Qu Moying said with a smile.
She said this very complacently, and it sounded as if the King of England was very satisfied with her.
Xie Lian secretly curled his lips. He saw that the Princess of England was a gentle person and was devoted to the King of England. However, the King of England might not think so. His Excellency said that the King of England had reprimanded him that day and had no intention of helping him. He thought he would hear the real evidence that the King of England was trying to help, but he didn’t expect it to be another empty promise.
She felt that given the King of England's temperament, similar words would probably not sound so nice when spoken. Unfortunately, the weak Princess of England did not understand and thought that the King of England was very good to her.
It seems that the King of England is having trouble getting through here.
“Yes, I… I understand.” Xie Lian responded softly, then stood up. “Then I… should go to the sewing room now.
. "
"Yuchun, please send Miss Xie off." Qu Moying called Yuchun.
Yuchun puffed up her face again, looking unhappy but helpless as she took Xie Lian away.
"Yuxiu, bring me the dowry list." Qu Moying said to Yuxiu as she watched Yuchun lead Xie Lian away.
Yuxiu went into the inner room and took the dowry list that was placed on the dressing table. It was Xie Lian’s dowry list. This list was placed with her master. It seemed that Miss Xie had forgotten about it. Even when she came here, she didn’t mention the list at all. Did she really think that she had her master in her arms
The list was placed on the desk in front of the window. Qu Moying walked over and picked up the pen. After looking at it for a few seconds, he put down his pen, changed a few items, and put a few items back on.
"Master, why did you give me such good things? These are all good things, and they are rewards from the palace." Yuxiu was unhappy when she saw her finish writing.
The previous few items that were crossed out are far less valuable than the ones that have just been added.
These are all good stuff, basically good stuff awarded by the palace. It’s a pity to give them to someone like Xie Lian.
Qu Moying put down his pen, walked back to his chair and sat down, smiling: "I crossed out two shops as well."
"Even if I cross out two shops, they're still not worth the value of what you've added now." Yuxiu leaned over to take another look and said.
The shop has a price, but it is not as much as the few new items my master has added.
"Do you think so?" Qu Moying smiled. He had always seen Yuchun looking indignant, but had not seen Yuxiu looking so indignant as well.
"Of course it is so. Look, master. This white jade paperweight you added is worth more than the price of a shop." Yu Xiu stretched out her hand and casually pointed at the objects above, as if she wanted to have a good talk with Qu Moying.
Seeing her like this, Qu Moying smiled, her watery eyes sparkling.
"There is one good thing, the shop has it, but this white jade paperweight doesn't have it, take a closer look."
After hearing what she said, Yuxiu looked at it seriously, but after a long while she shook her head and looked up at Qu Moying: "Master, I am stupid and don't know what the shop has, but this paperweight doesn't have it."
"Money that can be put to good use." Qu Moying laughed again, and after she finished laughing, she gently wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief and said, looking at the list on the table beside her with her watery eyes, "If money can't be put to good use, it will just stay there forever."
"Master, you mean that these things are dead. No matter where they are placed, they are dead and cannot be used as money. They look valuable, but in fact, they really cannot be used as money?" Yuxiu clapped her hands excitedly, her eyes suddenly widened, she understood.
"It can't be used as money. Not only can it not be used, but it must be well-preserved. From now on... you will know that it was all sent by me, so as not to send it away in vain, without even a false reputation."
Qu Moying smiled more calmly. Although the items were valuable, they could not be bought. So her things would be there forever. Moreover, there was another advantage of these things. They could be verified. The things in the palace were not something that an orphan like Xie Lian could have. These were all evidence.
With these, when I sever ties with my adoptive father in the future, no one will say that I am ungrateful.
No matter how much the property in front of her was worth, it was enough to relieve her of her urgency, and it could also leave a good reputation for herself. As for Xie Lian herself, if she wasn't greedy, why would she come to his house again and again...
