Qu Luqin was indeed very satisfied. She had never thought that she would have such a great opportunity.
It can't be said that she had never thought about it. At the beginning, she had thought about marrying into the King of England's palace with Qu Moying, with Qu Moying as the principal wife and her as the concubine.
Then she climbed up little by little. Compared with Qu Moying, she felt that she also had some concerns. Not to mention her appearance. Her appearance was not bad, but she could still clearly understand that she could not compare with Qu Moying.
But what else does Qu Moying have besides her looks? At most, she is just a pretty vase. Although she is a concubine's daughter, she has learned a lot. When she was young, she was repeatedly ignored by her aunt. She felt that she had to strive for excellence, so she worked hard no matter what she learned. She was much better than Qu Hongqin.
In terms of knowledge, talent, interpersonal skills, housekeeping skills... Qu Luqin felt that she had many advantages, but she just didn't have the opportunity to marry into a wealthy family.
As long as she gets the chance, she will soar to the sky.
Now that the opportunity had come, her heart began to beat so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat when she thought about seeing the King of England next.
Standing by the roadside, there was a relatively large grassland, open and wide enough for people to be seen. On one side it was close to the river, with a high slope behind it and the other side facing the main road leading to the manor. If she came from here, she would definitely see her, so she found a maid in the manor and moved some things over.
A small incense burner was placed on a table with incense sticks in it. It was not the right time yet. They had to choose a place to put it, a relatively flat place. Qu Luqin was there directing the move and placement. If it was not right, she would give further instructions.
I moved from the easternmost part to the westernmost part, but neither place was suitable. Then I moved to other places, which took a lot of time.
There were already a lot of folded paper money on the ground, and now it was piled up into a big pile.
Pei Yuanjun and his party appeared on the road in the distance. The first person was Pei Yuanjun. He was wearing a lavender brocade robe, which made his face as handsome as jade. His every move was heart-warming. Qu Luqin had seen Pei Yuanjun before. She had secretly watched him during her wedding.
At that time, she was jealous and resentful, and she only hated Qu Moying for ruining her plans, otherwise she would have entered the King of England's palace at that time.
Such a handsome man, who was in such a high position and power, like a god in the sky, originally belonged to her. How could she not hate Qu Moying
Compared with him, not to mention power, just this appearance makes Prince Wang fall into dust. Prince Wang is nothing. The person in front of him is a heavenly man.
He looked at the person in front of him almost obsessively, then suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly lowered his head, as if he didn't notice the group of people coming.
Being so close and seeing her, the prince would definitely ask a question. Even if he asked a servant to come over and ask, it would give the British king a preconceived impression of her kindness, and then he could slowly work on it. She must not be impatient, and must not let impatience ruin things.
Qu Luqin reminded herself again and again, pretending to be busy, and only dared to glance at the road out of the corner of her eye.
Sure enough, seeing someone here, His Royal Highness the King of England paused for a moment, then waved his hand, and a man who looked like a eunuch came over. Qu Luqin immediately retracted her gaze, not daring to let anyone see him.
"Move it again. This place doesn't look very good. Try to see if you can pick a more suitable one. It will take a long time to leave it there at night. If it's not suitable, the things placed on it may fall down." Qu Luqin said softly to the maid in the farm.
Seeing the maid sweating profusely while carrying the things, he felt sorry for her and even wanted to do it himself.
This prompted the maid to thank him hurriedly: "Miss Qu, you don't need to help me here, I can do it myself... I can do it myself."
"It's nothing. You must be tired after moving here. I will help if I can. Originally, it would be best if I could do it all by myself. If it weren't for the inconvenience of moving by myself, I would have to find a place myself. Now I am bothering you."
Qu Luqin said with an apologetic look on her face.
“This… this…” The maid was so polite that she was speechless and didn’t know how to respond for a moment.
But Qu Luqin actually stepped forward, as if to help lift it. Suddenly, she screamed in pain, put down the table in her hands, and squatted down.
"Miss...Miss, what happened to you? Did you crush your foot?" The maid on the side screamed and rushed over, shouting loudly, and squatted down, complaining, "Miss, how could you do such a thing? These things are done by others. You are a daughter, and you are not here to carry tables."
"It's okay, it just hurts a little. I'm here for Princess Ying's health. If Princess Ying's health can get better, I'd be willing to die... It's just this little bit, it's nothing." Qu Luqin stood up with the help of the maid's hand. She still had difficulty moving, but she gritted her teeth and persisted.
Their every move and demeanor were devoted to the Princess of England. Anyone who heard them talking would give them a thumbs-up and praise her, thinking that Miss Qu Luqin was truly kind and gentle.
A low cough was heard behind them. The master and servant looked at each other and knew that the eunuch had arrived, but they still pretended not to hear it. The maid was still complaining.
"Which family are you from?" Sure enough, an arrogant voice came from behind.
The two people seemed frightened. The maid helped Qu Luqin turn around and look at the eunuch who was talking to them. That was the eunuch who was beside the King of Ying just now.
"Our young lady is a sister of the Princess of England. This time she was sent by the clan to serve the Princess of England, hoping that she would get better as soon as possible." The maid supported Qu Luqin and said. She was startled when she saw that it was a eunuch. She subconsciously took a step back, looking timid.
"Sisters of the British Princess?" The eunuch looked them both up and down with a haughty look on his face.
"Yes... our young lady is the cousin of the Princess of England." The maid said hurriedly.
The eunuch smiled and pointed at the two of them, "Since you are the princess's cousin, what are you doing here? Don't you see that you are blocking our prince's way?"
After hearing what he said, Qu Luqin looked forward, and saw that the King of England was no longer on the road. She felt inexplicably uneasy. Shouldn't she stay and ask about the situation
"We... our young lady is going to offer sacrifices tonight, to pray for... for the Princess of England. We're choosing a place now... We have to choose a good place to be effective." The eunuch's eyes were chilly, and the maid stuttered unconsciously. Although it was discussed before, she still couldn't help but panic when faced with it.
"Pray for blessings?" The eunuch sneered and walked forward to the side of the table, which had already been placed by the water.
"Come here... This place is not appropriate." The eunuch called the master and servant.
The master and servant looked at each other, not knowing what this meant. Qu Luqin thought this might be the King of England's instruction, so after hesitating for a moment, she walked over.
Because she was nervous, she forgot for a moment that she had just pretended that her foot was crushed by the table. Although her feet hesitated, she still walked over steadily.
Looking at the eunuch with a sinister smile, the maid felt inexplicably uneasy. She followed Qu Luqin, feeling uneasy with every step.
"Come closer and take a look at where this table is placed." Seeing that they were hesitant and unwilling to get closer, the eunuch pointed to a spot above and said, "This is not appropriate. If something goes wrong, it will be your fault."
Hearing what he said, Qu Luqin moved closer, looked at the empty table, and then looked at the eunuch: "This eunuch... what do you mean?"
The eunuch looked at their positions, turned around from behind the table, and asked with a chuckle, "What do you mean?"
He raised his leg and kicked the two men one after the other, "That's what I mean."
The master and servant cried out in surprise and threw themselves into the water, thrashing and screaming.
The eunuch watched them splashing in the water with a smile on his face. After admiring them for a while, he felt bored and said to the maid who was staring at him in amazement, "Miss Qu has fallen into the water. Why don't you go and rescue them?"
After saying that, he turned and left without even looking at the result.
The maids then realized what was happening and two of them jumped down to rescue the master and servant.
After being rescued, the two had already drunk a lot of water. Qu Luqin's eyes went dark. She pointed in the direction the eunuch left. She couldn't breathe, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
The maid screamed in panic: "Miss...Miss..."
As he spoke, he hugged Qu Luqin. When he saw the red and white patches on Qu Luqin's face, he couldn't help but scream. Qu Luqin was no longer as beautiful as before. She looked like she had been dyed red. Even her hair was stained red. The powder on her face had been washed away long ago, leaving traces of red...
"She was thrown into the water. Master, you didn't see it. The scene was really... I just saw her from a distance and laughed so hard that I couldn't breathe. She was dressed so beautifully, but not only did you not get a second look at her, you became a drowned chicken. The makeup on her face all slipped off, and her clothes were soaked with water."
Yuxiu smiled and described to Qu Moying what she saw. Even though she only saw it from a distance, it still made her feel relieved.
Qu Luqin didn't even look at who she was facing. Was her master so easy to seduce? Not to mention that she was just a concubine's daughter, many legitimate daughters had plotted against her master before, and none of them had a good ending. She really thought that she had a kind and gentle face, and all men would be attracted to her.
The guy surnamed Wang is a fool. Even the prince's little toe is more powerful than him.
This woman is such a bitch, but only that guy surnamed Wang thought she was a good thing.
"Where is the prince?" Qu Moying smiled with his eyebrows slightly curved.
"The prince said he would be here soon and asked if you would like to rest here or somewhere else?" Yuxiu said with a smile.
If it was just the prince, he would not care about this aspect. No matter who comes, they will not get good treatment from the prince. Now he still cares about where the princess will rest, and it is because he cares about the princess and does not want to ruin her affairs, even though the princess' affairs are not a big deal in the eyes of the prince.
Since it is the princess's wish, the prince will take it into consideration.
"Please come here now, Your Majesty. We won't be staying here tonight." Qu Moying also understood this, and his eyes were involuntarily deep. Things had come to this point, and this place had to be used for a while, but that was all...
