Yue Wenhan and Ji Yongan appeared not far away. Yue Wenhan was the first one. His eyes fell coldly on Xiao's face, which made Xiao shudder. This man was not Qu Moying, but a serious Shaoqing of Dali Temple. Whenever Xiao thought of the many cases he handled and the many people he had killed, he felt scared.
No matter how powerful she was in front of Qu Moying, she was just a woman from the inner courtyard. How could she dare to go against someone like Yue Wenhan
He glared fiercely at Ji Yongan who was following behind Yue Wenhan, secretly hating Ji Yongan for bringing Yue Wenhan here. He was clearly a foreign guest, so why was he brought to the inner courtyard
Ji Yongan was also in pain, but he had no other choice. After Yue Wenhan entered the mansion, he tried every possible way to see Ji Yongming for the last time. How could he see him? There was no Ji Yongming at all, so how could he see him
Being asked repeatedly by Yue Wenhan, Ji Yongan felt very panicked. He had no choice but to talk about Ji Hanyue's old residence, and took the initiative to ask Yue Wenhan if he wanted to come and take a look.
Since he couldn't go to his eldest brother's place, he would go to his niece's place to give Yue Wenhan face. However, what Ji Yongan didn't expect was that his wife was actually talking to Fourth Miss Qu here. The atmosphere seemed to be a bit wrong. Xiao even made a sarcastic remark to Fourth Miss Qu.
The most important thing is that Yue Wenhan actually heard these words. When Ji Yongan heard Yue Wenhan's cold snort, he knew that something was wrong, but he could only bite the bullet and bring Yue Wenhan over.
Seeing Xiao glaring at him, Ji Yongan reacted and also glared at Xiao fiercely, thinking that Xiao was also a useless person who couldn't even deal with an unmarried girl.
Can this Miss Qu Si be compared with Yue Wenhan? There is a huge difference.
The couple each dealt with one person, and both thought that the one they were dealing with was the most difficult to deal with. Now they bumped into each other for no reason. After all, they were husband and wife. After glaring at each other, they immediately realized that the best thing to do next was to separate them.
"Miss Qu Si, please, let's sit down inside and talk first!" A gentle smile appeared on Xiao's face, and she seemed like a different person compared to the sharp sarcasm just now. Her expression changed very quickly.
Qu Moying was not surprised by this. Xiao was an extremely tactful person. She would say whatever fits the situation. When she showed concern for you, you might even feel that she cared about you more than for her own daughter. This was the kind of scene that had been presented to him before. This was also one of the most important reasons why he had always believed in Ji Youran.
"Thank you, Madam Ji. It's just that my cousin gave me the shop. Madam Ji, are you really unwilling to give it to me?" Qu Moying said. She originally wanted to find Yue Wenhan outside and ask for it when Yue Wenhan was around. But now that Yue Wenhan was around, she would not be polite and ask for it directly.
Yue Wenhan is not me, so what he says can be much more powerful than what I have.
"What shop?" Yue Wenhan was stunned, not understanding the meaning of this sentence.
“That’s it…” Xiao didn’t expect Qu Moying to suddenly attack, and she stuttered for a moment.
"They are the two shops and some other things that my cousin promised to give me before her wedding. Madam Ji II agreed to give me some of my cousin's old things, but she disagreed with the two shops, saying that the shops had already been given to my cousin and were now in the hands of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after entering the East Palace."
Qu Moying interrupted Xiao and explained.
"Since the Crown Princess has agreed, the Ling Anbo Mansion will give it to you. As for the Crown Princess's dowry, it's hard for the Ling Anbo Mansion to do so now that the Crown Princess is gone.
Do you plan to take back the dowry?" Yue Wenhan asked Ji Yongan in confusion. He is a man, so it would be better to ask Ji Yongan directly about this matter.
As for the dowry, the prince must return it as long as the Ji family asks for it.
Not to mention the prince, all the slightly respectable families in the capital did the same.
Ji Yongan didn't know there was such an old story here. After being stunned for a moment, his face flushed. He and Xiao Shi certainly wouldn't ask the prince for Ji Hanyue's dowry. Their daughter was still in the Eastern Palace, and these would be considered her dowry, and the foundation for her to gain a foothold in the Eastern Palace.
Only if a daughter pleases the prince can she become the principal wife.
Such a small amount of Ji Hanyue's property must of course be given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The Ling Anbo Mansion had no intention of mentioning this matter at all, but now that Yue Wenhan brought it up, they had no choice but to say it.
“We need to wait and see about this. Right now… there are so many things going on in the mansion, and my elder brother is… my elder brother is…” Ji Yongan started crying and wiped his tears with his sleeves.
It is indeed not good to still care about financial matters at this time. Even if Qu Moying has Ji Hanyue's letter in his hand, it is not convenient to talk about these things at this time.
Qu Moying naturally understood this truth, and she didn't expect to accomplish it right away. The most important thing was not the two shops, but a topic that she could bring up whenever she wanted.
Ji Youran wanted to take her dowry, which was absolutely impossible.
All her dowry was prepared by her father and mother, which was not comparable to what Ji Youran could give her. She would make Ji Youran spit out everything she had swallowed bit by bit.
"Cousin, let's talk about this later." Qu Moying said, "Let's talk about it after my uncle's funeral is over."
Yue Wenhan nodded in understanding and looked up at the yard: "This is the Crown Princess's yard, can I go in and take a look?"
Ji Yongan brought him here, naturally for him to see, and he nodded immediately: "Of course you can look at it, but the things inside cannot be moved. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that everything here must be kept in its original state. Whenever he comes to the mansion for something, he will come here to sit down."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is truly affectionate." Yue Wenhan sighed.
"The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were engaged a long time ago, and the Crown Prince respected the Crown Princess very much. They were a perfect match, but they didn't expect... that it would end up like this. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very sad. Whenever he felt troubled, he would come here to sit, after all, this was where the Crown Princess really lived."
By this time, Xiao had already reacted and hurriedly said with a smile, and also explained the reason why Pei Luoan appeared here just now.
Qu Moying said nothing. She was originally going to leave, but Yue Wenhan came, so she didn't have to leave first. She followed Yue Wenhan and walked in.
Xiao wanted to speak up to stop the man, but after looking at Yue Wenhan who was in front of Qu Moying, she shut her mouth and followed behind with a gloomy face.
After the group entered, they did not go into the main house, but just walked around the yard. Seeing that it was getting late, Yue Wenhan said goodbye.
Xiao and Ji Yongan just wanted the two of them to leave quickly and nodded repeatedly.
Xiao called Nanny Zhou over as well, and asked someone to see them out the door along with the things that had been given to Qu Moying. After watching the two of them leave, the smile on Xiao's face faded. She waved her hand, and the servants retreated and stood far away.
"Yue Wenhan came today
What does it mean? "Without the servants, Xiao said angrily. Yue Wenhan has been coming very frequently recently, and Xiao has never understood what he means.
"He kept wanting to see my eldest brother, so I had no choice but to bring him here for a walk." Ji Yongan explained.
"Don't you know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here? It would not be good if he bumps into His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Xiao frowned and said unhappily.
Ling Anbo has just passed away due to an accident, but the matter of the Crown Princess is not over yet. The Eastern Palace is still holding a memorial ceremony for the Crown Princess. The Crown Prince has deep feelings for her, so why is he going to Ling Anbo's mansion instead of staying in the Eastern Palace
Compared to the Crown Princess, could it be that the Crown Prince cares more about Ling Anbo
The time is wrong and the place is wrong!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince will only sit for a while. Can he sit longer? In the past, he would go to Youran's courtyard." Ji Yongan said disapprovingly.
He was forced by Yue Wenhan into having no other choice but to bring the person here.
After saying this, he asked angrily, "Why did you bring Miss Qu Si here? Could it be that she is a weak lady and you can't handle her, so you have to bring her here?"
"I brought her here, but she came here by herself and bumped into His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She even took out a letter and asked for Ji Hanyue's things."
Xiao said angrily.
"You're not going to deny it? What are you thinking?" Ji Yongan said sarcastically.
"I would like to deny it, but the Crown Princess's handwriting is known to many people. If it gets out, what good will it do us?" Xiao was so angry that she trembled. Her lips trembled twice and she said angrily, "Right now, we have to keep a low profile in our mansion. Have you forgotten what You Ran has said repeatedly?"
Thinking of his intelligent daughter, Ji Yongan's face looked better. Now his daughter was everything to him. He had been planning for her for so long, and now it was about to come to fruition.
"Okay, okay, since You Ran said that, you should be more careful next time." Ji Yongan flicked his sleeves and turned to leave, as a way to give his daughter face. Otherwise, with Xiao's attitude, he would have ignored her long ago. Any one of the concubines in his backyard was better than Xiao.
Of course, the concubines in his backyard were replaced one after another, and they were all dealt with viciously by Xiao. Thinking that several of his concubines died at the hands of Xiao, it would be strange for Ji Yongan to be happy.
Behind him, Xiao Shi couldn't stand him anymore. She stomped her feet hard and went to the inner courtyard with her maids and old women. She also had to talk to the lady about this Fourth Miss Qu. She looked like a troublemaker and not a good companion.
The carriage left Ji's mansion, turned a few corners, and stopped at a teahouse. Yue Wenhan got off the horse first and threw the reins to the servant. Qu Moying helped Yu Dong get off the horse, looked at the not-so-small teahouse in front of him in astonishment, and then looked at Yue Wenhan who was standing next to him.
"Let's go in and sit down first." Yue Wenhan said.
Qu Moying nodded, knowing that Yue Wenhan had something to say to him.
The two of them went in together, found a private room, and sat down. Yudong picked some tea and asked the waiter to bring it up, then he stood behind Qu Moying.
"Cousin, do you want to ask something?" Qu Moying picked up the teacup and took a sip, then slowly put it down and asked with his eyes raised.
She knew that Yue Wenhan was a smart person...
