The hall for worship has actually been prepared. It is the largest hall in Qingyun Temple. In the past, few people worshipped here, and it was regarded as the face of Qingyun Temple.
But today was different. Maids and old women stood on both sides of the wide-open entrance to the main hall. Taoist nuns also stood in several rows. It looked quite imposing. Some people were already asking the Taoist nuns from Qingyun Temple which family was offering sacrifices with such a grand ceremony.
When they heard that it was for the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, many people clasped their hands together and saluted from afar.
This Crown Princess is the daughter of Ling Anbo. Ling Anbo used to hold military power and guarded the border for so many years. It can be said that he has made great contributions. But now not only has Ling Anbo gotten into trouble, but both of Ling Anbo's daughters have also gotten into trouble. Thinking about it now, this family is indeed pitiful.
Even if she was the Crown Princess of the current dynasty, she still couldn't escape this fate in the end. Some people knew that the current concubine in charge was also the daughter of the Ji family, and they couldn't help but sigh even more.
Who could have thought that the one who was most popular would end up like this, and the one who was least expected would be the only one favored by the East Palace.
Time and fate are not just a casual remark.
Sensing this, more people are trying to find out the whereabouts of the abbot of Qingyun Temple. The abbot of Qingyun Temple is very capable. If he meets someone who is compatible with him, he will give you some advice, which will be of great benefit to you in the future.
Today is the day to worship the Crown Princess, and the Master of Qingyun Temple may also show up. Many people with quick minds immediately thought of this possibility and decided not to go anywhere else. They just wait here to see if there is a chance to meet the Master of Qingyun Temple. No matter how they look at it, the chance today is quite good!
After all, she is the Crown Princess!
There are many people who have this idea. It can be seen that many people, although not coming close, are watching this side from afar, waiting for the Master of Qingyun Temple to appear. They also want to take a look at how the Prince's Mansion worships the Crown Princess and what kind of people will come!
Ji Youran knelt down in front of Ji Hanyue's spirit tablet in a pretentious manner, crying so hard that she couldn't stand up. The maids and old women on both sides kept persuading her and finally helped Ji Youran, who was almost "fainted from crying", to stand up. Xiao also stood up and wiped her tears while saying to Ji Youran, "Don't be sad, Concubine. The dead can't be resurrected. The Crown Princess will always know that you are grateful to her."
"So what if I know? My second sister is no longer here. How can I feel bad about this?" Ji Youran's eyes were red, and she wiped her tears with a handkerchief. It was heartbreaking to see her, and one could not help but be moved by her deep sisterly love. "If possible, I would rather be the one who died at that time..."
Having said this, he was already choking up and couldn't continue, tears streaming down his face.
"My Lady Concubine, the Lady Crown Princess would definitely not want to see you like this. If she is still alive, she would definitely appreciate your sisterly love." Xiao advised again, helping Ji Youran sit down on a chair beside her. "In order to prepare for this worship, you have neglected your health. Now, you should take good care of your body."
There was something hidden in Xiao's words. Of course, she was hinting that Ji Youran should give birth to a child quickly, before the future Crown Princess. When the Crown Prince sits on that position in the future, the child born this time will be the eldest son, and his status will definitely not be comparable to that of future children.
"Mother, let's not talk about this for now." Ji Youran didn't want to talk about this matter. She wanted to, too, but she just couldn't react. She couldn't rush. But as for Xie Feng, regardless of whether it was true or not, she sent a bowl of "tonic" with added ingredients to him. She would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. She couldn't give birth, so why should a cheap girl give birth
And the Queen also
She personally warned Ji Youran not to have any other thoughts, otherwise the Queen Mother would not tolerate her.
Ji Youran was very annoyed by this, and even felt like rushing to the prince's study and telling him about this.
The prince's intention at the beginning was clearly to promote me to the position of principal wife in the future. The position of crown princess would be mine. Why did it turn out like this now? The prince actually wants to marry someone else. Why can't I be the crown princess? I have been devoted to the crown prince, so why can't I give birth to the eldest son
But Ji Youran finally suppressed all her anger. Now was different from the past. The prince would not keep his promise. She had to ask for what she wanted herself.
Just like back then, whatever she wanted, she just snatched it from Ji Hanyue.
Since Ji Hanyue could be killed by myself, why can't Liu Jingyu be killed by me
Liu Jingyu in front of him was so glorious, and he was about to enter the East Palace. Wasn't Ji Hanyue even more glorious at the beginning? Not only did he say he was going to enter the East Palace, but it was also said that the prince had placed Ji Hanyue in his heart. But in the end, what happened? Wasn't he pushed to the bottom of Linyuan Pavilion by his own people
So, no rush, take it slow, she wants to let the prince know that she is the most suitable one for the position of crown princess.
Before, she let the prince see that the Lady of Jingyu County was not kind to Ji Hanyue's cousin. Now she can let the prince see her deep affection for Ji Hanyue and let the prince know that she is a person who cares about feelings. For this purpose, she has even prepared a play.
In such a scene, the prince will definitely value himself more in some matters.
Even if Ji Hanyue died, he could still use her again. It was all for the Ling'anbo Mansion anyway. Even if Ji Hanyue knew about it in the afterlife, she would feel that what she did was right. Besides, what happened at that time was not something he could do as he pleased. Whatever he did, it was to prevent the entire Ling'anbo Mansion from being implicated and to preserve the Ling'anbo Mansion's lineage.
There are many things that I can’t do anything about!
Thinking of this, even she herself felt that she had done the most for Ji Hanyue. The prince was determined to marry Liu Jingyu at this time, but she was the only one who still missed Ji Hanyue and worshipped Ji Hanyue wholeheartedly. If Ji Hanyue knew about this in the afterlife, he would definitely bless her.
“Mother, who could have thought that my second sister… would be like this, I… I…” Ji Youran started crying again.
Xiao and the people around her tried to persuade her again. As they were talking, they saw Madam Ji coming over with her maids and old women.
Xiao hurriedly went out to greet them. Outside the palace gate, she saw not only Madam Ji, but also the Madam of the Qu Mansion and the obvious target, Miss Qu Si.
Her face looked a little unhappy for a moment. She really disliked Qu Moying.
Although Madam Ji went up the mountain first, not long after they went up, Qu Moying helped Madam Qu up the mountain as well. After all, the two were embarrassed to say that they were going separately, so they walked together and went down the back mountain together. After all, they had to pay tribute to the Crown Princess together, and it would be a bit awkward to separate at this time.
Moreover, Qu Moying was very quiet along the way and didn't say anything. Madam Ji just assumed that she couldn't see and only spoke to Madam Qu.
The two of them spoke calmly.
Seeing Xiao coming out, Madam Ji immediately remembered the humiliation she had suffered at Qu Moying's hands before, and her face immediately turned ugly. Xiao stepped forward to greet her, but she just snorted indifferently, indicating that she had heard it.
Qu Moying stepped forward and saluted to Xiao gracefully: "Mrs. Xiao!"
"Miss Qu Si looks really good.
It is true that people feel refreshed when they meet someone they like! "When Xiao saw Qu Moying, she was furious. She was about to get Yuejin Pavilion, but it finally fell into Qu Moying's hands. She was furious. Her manager had reported the whole story to her.
It was said that it was the intervention of the fourth young lady of the Qu family that caused the plan of Mr. Zhao to fail, and finally because of the failure, he asked the Xiao family to return the money and property that had been given before.
That amount of property was really huge, at least half of the price of Yuejin Pavilion. After receiving such a large sum of money, Xiao was overjoyed. She originally thought that Yuejin Pavilion had lost its share, but now she had such a good thing. Of course, she helped a lot and detained Madam Duan in Ling'anbo's mansion, not allowing her to go out to do business.
Now that the matter has not been done, there is nothing Xiao can do when Mr. Zhao asks for the money back. When she got such a large sum of money, she gave half of it to her daughter. Of course, it is best to have her daughter's support in such matters. But now that something has happened, of course she can no longer ask her daughter for the money. She does not have that much cash on hand, so she had to open the warehouse and secretly buy a few things to fill the hole.
The most important thing was that the manager said that the people over there were asking for the things urgently, so she had to buy some of her things at a low price. When she thought of the hatred and saw Qu Moying getting angry, she forgot what her daughter had said before.
"What happy event are you talking about, Madam Xiao? I don't have any happy event here, but I have some troubles to trouble you, Madam Xiao. It turns out that the matter of Yuejinge is related to the manager of your mansion!" Qu Moying stood up straight, raised her eyes to look at Xiao, raised the corners of her lips, and said calmly. She was really not afraid of Xiao coming to accuse her.
"Miss Fourth Qu..." Upon hearing this, Xiao's face became even uglier and she said coldly, and it looked like she was about to say something.
Madam Ji's face darkened and she scolded sternly, "Xiao, what are you talking about at this time? Why don't you take her in to pay respect to the Crown Princess?"
Before Xiao could finish her sentence, she was scolded by Madam Ji. This was in front of so many people. She was so embarrassed that her face turned blue and white.
"Madam, please don't be anxious. Madam Xiao may also ask the same thing you asked before." Qu Moying smiled, with a calm face.
"Ms. Xiao, you have to explain this matter to me in detail later." Madam Ji blurted out, turned around and walked inside. If this kind of thing were to be said again, wouldn't it bring shame to the Ling Anbo Mansion
If such a person really needed to be found, and Yue Wenhan also knew about him, Madam Ji felt that there was no need to investigate. It had been a long time since Xiao had coveted those things. Although Madam Ji was angry after hearing this, she believed that what Qu Moying said was true and that Xiao must be unclean.
The more you talk about this kind of thing, the more embarrassing it becomes, especially at a time like this.
Xiao was very embarrassed by being choked by Madam Ji. There were so many people outside the palace. She was the second wife of the Ling'an Marquis and the biological mother of the Eastern Palace Concubine, but she was scolded like a servant. A trace of hatred flashed in her eyes. This old woman was too ignorant.
Do you really think that she is now her uncle
Although she was angry, she would not really argue with Madam Ji at this time. Xiao turned around with an ugly face and followed Madam Ji into the palace.
"Second Madam Xiao, is that manager surnamed Xiao the Second Madam's man?" Qu Moying had no intention of letting Xiao off so easily. He stepped forward and asked directly with a smile.
This question made Mrs. Ji in front of her suddenly stop...
