Qu Moying's health recovered relatively quickly. Ever since the King of England came to visit her that day, her health has been getting better day by day.
As expected, Miss Qu Si made the right decision to marry His Royal Highness the King of England. His Royal Highness the King of England has a good fate, otherwise the Emperor would not have kept him in the palace.
Now, it was said that Miss Qu Si was about to die, but she actually got better during the visit of the King of England. This is truly a blessing from the stars and an extraordinary luck.
Of course, everyone just talked about this kind of thing in private, and no one dared to go into details. However, the reputation of this British villain gradually faded under the understanding eyes of everyone.
That eerie and terrifying place called West Prison has nothing to do with the King of England now. How could the King of England's fate be one of bad luck? Who spread the rumor before that the King of England had bad luck in his fate? It was fitting that he went to a place like West Prison.
Now it seems that the evil spirit from the Western Prison has affected the good fortune of the King of England!
There were also rumors that the marriage between His Royal Highness the King of England and the fourth young lady of the Qu family was a match made in heaven and a truly auspicious marriage.
This statement is actually earlier than the one about the marriage between the crown prince and Jingxian Junyu, which makes people suspect that the crown prince gave way to his uncle and that the Imperial Observatory calculated the marriage of the King of Ying first.
Some people think that this is a violation of etiquette. Even though the King of England is the elder, the Crown Prince is the heir apparent and the future king. How can he give way to the King of England in this grand wedding
But some people think it should be so. On the one hand, it is because the King of England is the elder, and on the other hand, it is because the Crown Princess is a remarried one. There is also a saying in folk that a remarried wife should follow the etiquette of a concubine in front of the previous wife. In other words, the prince is now marrying a concubine, and of course the scene cannot be compared with that of the main wife.
When this news spread, there were all kinds of discussions.
But no matter what, it is a fact that the Imperial Observatory put the prince's marriage on the back burner.
Amidst the discussions among the people, Qu Moying recovered and the imperial physicians went back, leaving only the doctor brought by the King of England. He now lives in the Qu Mansion and concentrates on treating Qu Moying's health, saying that it is in preparation for the prince's wedding.
Qu Zhizhen was also very scared this time. He knew that if something really happened to Qu Moying, he would definitely be in trouble, even though this matter seemed to have nothing to do with him.
It would be best if the doctor stayed.
Madam Qi came again, but this time she didn't come to Qu Moying's yard. She waited for Qu Moying to come over in Madam Qi's yard.
After Qu Moying entered the room, he first bowed to his grandmother, and then bowed to Madam Qi with great grace.
Madam Qi's gaze fell on Qu Moying's face. Qu Moying was thinner than before. Her delicate little face was only the size of a palm, and looked pointed, so thin that it made people feel distressed.
"How is your health?" Madam Qi asked softly.
"Thank you, Madam. It's nothing serious now!" Qu Moying replied.
"That's good, that's good!" Madam Qi clasped her hands together and said repeatedly.
"This girl is really lucky. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of England came here this time, otherwise it would really be..." said the lady, her eyes slightly red. At that time, she really thought that her granddaughter was doomed to die. She didn't expect that the King of England's visit would have such a good effect. Now she is recovering well. Although she still looks thin, it is nothing serious now.
"Britain
Your Highness is really a blessed person, and he can bring blessings to others." Madam Qi sighed.
"That's right. The King of England is a blessed man. Ever since the marriage with him was arranged, Ying has been getting better and better." The lady said. She was sincerely grateful to Pei Yuanjun. Coupled with all the rumors outside, she felt that her granddaughter was lucky to marry the King of England, who had such a good fate and could bring blessings to others.
"Miss Fourth Qu, what I said last time, that I wanted Miss Fourth Qu's help..." Madam Qi found it difficult to speak, and said to Qu Moying.
"You're too polite, Madam. Is there anything that needs a little girl like her to do?" Madam Qu couldn't help but speak. She didn't think her little granddaughter could do anything to help Madam Qi.
Although Lady Jingyu did not come today, Madam Qu still felt very relieved. Does this really have nothing to do with the Liu Mansion and Lady Jingyu
"It's not a big deal, actually. The letter that the old Duke sent to Jiangnan a few days ago has been returned. The Yue family in Jiangnan has agreed to let Xiao Yue become our goddaughter. This is our debt to Xiao Yue, so we have to send Xiao Yue's spirit tablet to the Qi family's ancestral hall for worship." Madam Qi said, "Xiao Yue is no longer with us, and we want Miss Qu Si to carry Xiao Yue's spirit tablet in."
In other words, this ceremony requires Qu Moying's cooperation.
"This..." Madam Qu widened her eyes in surprise. She didn't understand why the Duke of Qi's Mansion would go to such lengths. Was this a sincere attempt to compensate Xiao Yue
Besides, even if she is a goddaughter, she doesn't have to be placed in the Qi family's ancestral hall!
Does this mean that the Xiaoyue family will enjoy the incense of both families
"My mother has already married into the Qu family, so the Qu family should bear the incense." Qu Moying raised his eyes and said calmly. This was really unexpected, but no matter how unexpected things happened, Qu Moying could still accept such an accident.
Jiangnan Yue agreed, and as a daughter she had no reason to object and could only talk about the matter.
"We're just offering sacrifices, and then we'll take it out again. It's just a ceremony." Madam Qi thought Qu Moying didn't understand, so she explained gently, "After that, it will still be placed in the ancestral hall of the Qu Mansion."
"Then whose daughter will mother be from now on?" Qu Moying was as calm as water, as if she really knew nothing, and looked at Madam Qi with clear and cold eyes.
Facing these eyes that could almost see into her heart, Madam Qi felt a little embarrassed. She glanced at Qu Moying and then said carefully, "She is considered the daughter of two families. Although she still bears the title of Yue family, she is treated the same as a biological daughter. To the Yue family, your mother is still their daughter!"
"How can one person be the biological daughter of two families? Madam Qi, this is probably inappropriate!" Qu Moying pointed out the most suspicious part of the whitewash here and said bluntly: "Madam Qi, no matter what happened between Madam Liu and mother, it has nothing to do with the Duke of Qi's Mansion. Even if compensation is required, it does not need to be done this way."
Does this mean rejection? And he was using the rumors about Madam Liu. If those rumors were true, Madam Liu would be Qu Moying's enemy. Madam Qu's face turned cold, and she immediately thought of this.
He said, "Madam Qi, this is inappropriate! Since Yue has entered our Qu Mansion, she is our Qu Mansion's daughter-in-law. At this time, letting Yue, a deceased person, become Madam's goddaughter is probably not good for everyone. In the future... it will not be convenient for us to get along with each other!"
”
It's not just inconvenient. If those things are true, and the two sides are enemies, how can they get along well? Madam Qu really doesn't understand why the Duke of Qi's Mansion has such an idea. Is this to explain the hatred and make both sides happy? But how can such a thing be compensated by such a thing
Can Xiao Yue come back if I compensate him again
It would be inappropriate for Qu Moying to speak up about this matter, but it would be okay if Madam Qu spoke up about it.
No matter whose daughter Xiao Yue was in the past, at least she was now the second wife of the Qu family, and after her death she would be buried in the ancestral hall of the Qu family.
Even if the Yue family of Jiangnan agrees and the Qu family disagrees, the Duke of Qi's Mansion has no other choice but to do so.
But on the surface, this matter seems to be extremely beneficial to the Qu Mansion with no harm at all. At least in the future, when people talk about the Qu Mansion, they will also mention the Duke of Qi's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion. Simply put, it will give the Qu Mansion a strong backing, and when the prince ascends the throne to become emperor in the future, the Qu Mansion will benefit even more.
Madam Qi never expected that Qu Moying would object to this matter.
"Madam Qi, let's just leave it at that. Grandma and grandpa may not know about what's happening in the capital. Let me talk to my cousin and tell him about what's happening in the capital. I believe grandma and grandpa will not think so." Qu Moying did not give Madam Qi a chance to speak and directly rejected the matter.
She would not become a relative of Liu Jingyu, nor would she be defeated because of this relationship.
It seemed that this matter was the compensation from the Duke of Qi's Mansion to her mother. The title of goddaughter would solve all problems. She didn't need it, and her mother didn't need it either.
The Yue family in Jiangnan is very nice. Even though they are not related by blood, Qu Moying believes that she would rather be the daughter of the Yue family than a noble lady in the Duke of Qi's Mansion.
"Your grandmother and grandfather have already agreed!" Madam Qi looked at Qu Moying, not knowing what to say for a moment, and could only stammer.
"It's all in the past. Mom is gone. Besides, it's a bit far away. If Mom were still here... then everything would be in time. But now... it's too late."
Qu Moying shook his head, with sadness in his eyes. A tear welled up in his dark eyes, but he stubbornly refused to let it fall. "It's all in the past. What should have been snatched away has been snatched away. The so-called relatives are actually worth nothing. Blood ties are the most useless things. For many things, one can abandon one's blood relatives, such as glory and wealth."
She looked at Madam Qi frankly, without a trace of concealment in her eyes, with deep sadness and a hint of hatred, showing her clarity and understanding very directly. In her eyes, the various scruples of the Duke of Qi's Mansion were ironic, ironic that the Duke of Qi's Mansion could push her mother to death for all kinds of self-righteous things.
The love and affection between them and the Liu family was stained with their mother's blood, and now they are making up for it.
"Madam, my dead mother is gone. The water that has been poured out has long since dried up. When I wake up in my dreams at midnight, my mother's cries will gradually fade away. She will find a good family to be reborn in. She will no longer be a victim of others, and no one will rob her of everything that originally belonged to her."
Qu Moying spoke word by word, and every word made the old lady's face turn as pale as snow and her body tremble.
At this moment, it seemed as if the voice of Yue Shi crying in her afternoon dream really appeared. The lady was so distressed that she covered her chest with her hands. Her eyes went dark. Every word seemed to hit her heart, and she was in so much pain that she wished she was dead...
