Yueniang came in from outside with a bit of cold air.
"Miss, Second Master, the princess asked the four ladies in the mansion to disembark and pay regards to Madam Zhenguo."
Qingguan put down the medical book and frowned slightly: "Mrs. Zhen Guo, did you meet her here?"
Yueniang saw something wrong with the young lady's face and said hurriedly: "I heard that Mrs. Chen is from Shandong. This time she is bringing her brothers and sisters back to her hometown to visit relatives."
Qingguan nodded and said nothing.
Emperor Baoqing had two queens. The late Empress Lu was born in the Lu family of the Duke of Dingguo. In the 27th year of Baoqing, Empress Lu died of illness in the palace, and the prince was born to her.
Empress Lu died of illness and the position of queen became vacant. A year later, Emperor Baoqing made Qin Guifei the queen of the middle palace and named her son Zhao Jingjue the king of Rui.
Queen Qin's brother is Qinling, the Duke of Zhenguo. His wife, Mrs. Chen, was born in the Chen family, a famous family in Shandong.
The Chen family's eldest daughter, Qin Qianlan, was married to Prince Rui's Mansion as a royal concubine three years ago, at the discretion of Queen Qin.
Gu Mansion was originally a member of King Rui. He had offended King Rui by giving away his daughter. He was worried that he would not be able to find a chance to go aboard. Now that he encountered the ship of the Duke of Zhenguo here, there was no reason not to go and say hello.
Qingguan smiled slightly, with joy flowing out of the corners of her eyes, and asked: "Dress me up more elegantly."
After the case of the prince, some people said that Empress Qin secretly planned for King Rui to kill the prince and his followers; others said that it was Concubine Yin who did it.
Who is it and who is not? Qingwan came to Beijing just to get to the bottom of things. They met at Liaocheng Pier. It was really God's blessing. She was just thinking of having sex for a while.
Mrs. Zhen Guogong was not on the boat, but had gone down to the inn.
The inn is very large, and all the casual guests have been cleared away. There are young men and women guarding each door, and there is a huge pomp and circumstance. There are dozens of rooms, and only the Zhenguogong family lives there.
Gu Erye and his wife walked into the inn first, Gu Qingzhi and the four daughters from the second room filed in, and Qingguan intentionally fell behind.
Seeing that she was sensible, Gu Qingyun was about to mock her, but thinking that this place was different from other places, she glared at her coldly and walked in with her head held high.
Chunni leaned into Qingguan's ear and said, "Miss, look at how arrogant she is."
Qingguan smiled and said nothing, signaling her to pay attention.
In the main hall of the inn, a beautiful middle-aged woman sat upright.
I saw her wearing a thin satin jacket with white butterflies and silver squirrels on it, and a light peony red pleated skirt with the word "Happiness" with two finger-wide black velvet trim. Her dark hair was neatly combed into a circle. She has a bun, a red gold five-phoenix hairpin and a pair of big bead pendants on her ears, giving her a rich and noble look.
The gentleman is Mrs. Chen, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
When Mrs. Chen saw someone coming, a polite smile appeared on her lips, and she bowed slightly: "Princess Master Gu Er Ye is well."
Seeing that the house was full of female relatives, Mr. Gu didn't want to stay too long. After a quick bow, he exchanged a few words and then left with some excuse.
Princess Huayang has a sweet face and a bitter heart. How could someone with her fiery eyes not notice Chen's perfunctory behavior.
If it was in the past, he was the princess, why did he need to look at her face. However, now they have a sister-in-law who is a queen and a daughter who is Princess Rui, so their wealth is different from before.
Princess Huayang smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that we met here. I brought a few girls from the mansion to greet Madam."
Mrs. Chen smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, you're welcome. Please sit down and have a sip of tea."
At this time, the maid handed over the futon, and Wu Yanling came forward to kowtow in greeting. Mrs. Chen praised her a little and rewarded her with a jade hairpin.
Qingguan was about to step forward, but was blocked by two concubines. She smiled slightly and simply took two steps back.
After the third and fourth ladies kowtowed, Mrs. Chen asked them their names and ages, and each of them was rewarded with a hosta.
At this time, Qingguan knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Just as he was about to stand up, Mr. Chen spoke: "This person is..."
Princess Huayang smiled far-fetchedly and said, "This is the daughter of the former Qian family. Her name is Qingwan. She has just turned thirteen this year."
Mrs. Chen deliberately exclaimed and said, "It doesn't look like he is crazy."
Even the Chen family in the capital knew about his madness. It seemed that King Rui knew very well about the Gu family sending a mad girl to the wise king. The corners of Qingwan's mouth rose slightly.
Princess Huayang said calmly: "The government spent a lot of money to hire famous doctors, and the madness has just been cured."
As soon as these words came out, Qingguan's eyebrows moved, and from the corner of his eye, he just caught a glimpse of Chunni rolling his eyes silently. It was clear that the government didn't care about the young lady's life or death, but he still had the nerve to tell lies with his eyes open.
Chunni muttered in her heart, "It's so shameless." When she saw the young lady glance at him, she quickly lowered her eyes.
Ms. Chen let out a long "Oh" and said with a kind face, "Come a few steps forward and show me quickly."
Qingguan stepped forward with lowered eyebrows and narrowed eyes.
Mrs. Chen didn't know whether it was because she really felt pity for Qingguan or just to make Junyang feel disgusted, but she took Qingguan's hand and sighed: "Good boy, I've really suffered a lot for you. I also saw your mother before she came out of the cabinet, first class You have such a good look, you look so much like her.”
He really knows how to act.
Qingguan sneered in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She just lowered her head and said softly: "I can hardly remember my mother anymore."
"Your mother is not only good-looking, but also has outstanding character." Mrs. Chen glanced at the princess and added.
Praising his ex-wife in front of Xu Xian, such a straightforward insult made the princess neither smile nor annoyed, she could only grind her back teeth hard to suppress the anger in her heart.
Chen's eyes turned red, and she patted Qingguan's palm to express comfort, but she looked deeply at the entourage.
The attendant understood, and immediately took out a pair of extremely transparent jade bracelets inlaid with gold threads from the box, and stuffed them into Qingguan's hands.
"Good boy, take it and play with it."
Qingguan took the jade bracelet and blessed Chen, but looked at the girls of the Gu family from the corner of her eyes.
The second wife and four daughters received the same favors from everyone else, but she, who happened to be a lunatic, received a heavy gift. This Mrs. Chen is really extraordinary, she is clearly slapping the princess in the face.
As expected, the four people had expressions on their faces, as if they were constipated. The princess's constipation was even worse.
At this time, a man came in from outside. He was no taller than a weak crown, but he was quite handsome. His only eyes were a little cold, and the corners of his face were slightly green.
Qingguan took a look and knew that this man was recovering from a serious illness. If she read correctly, this man should be Qin Yukun, the youngest son of the Chen family.
In her previous life, when she was Qian Ziqi, she had a chance encounter with Qin Yukun. That year, she and her father returned to the Sheng family, and happened to meet Qin Ling, the Duke of Zhenguo, and Qin Yukun, who came to the Sheng family to become apprentices.
He was born as a military general in the Sheng family, and all the young and old in the house were interested in martial arts, and people often came to him to learn from him.
Grandfather and Duke Dingguo have always been on good terms. The two were once brothers who were worshiped as princes. Grandfather stood firmly by the prince's side, so there was no way he would accept Qin Yukun as his disciple.
The old man refused on the spot.
Qin Yukun was so angry that he rushed out without waiting for Duke Zhen to say anything, knocking her down just as she was about to enter.
She was hit with stars in her eyes, and when she was about to find someone to argue with her, Qin Yukun said, "What's so great about your Sheng family?" and ran away.
From then on, she remembered this gloomy face.
As soon as Qin Yukun came in, he neither saluted the elders nor greeted the princess. He only looked at the four girls of the Gu family with a very wretched look.
The four girls in the Gu family covered their headscarves and turned away with blushing faces.
Mrs. Chen hurriedly tried to smooth things over and said, "This is my incompetent son. He was favored a little and was spoiled by me to the point of being lawless. Princess, please forgive me."
Huayang knew that this son was the favorite of the current Queen Qin, so he didn't dare to do anything more. He smiled and said: "What a talented guy, people are really happy to see him. I have been nagging for a long time, so I will take the girl back first."
Mrs. Chen didn't stay empty-handed and only said some polite words.
Qing Guan lowered his head and was about to leave with the others, when Qin Yukun said, "What's your name for the one in white?"
Among the five girls in the Gu family, only Qingwan wears crescent white clothes.
She turned around, smiled dryly at Qin Yukun, and then bared her teeth.
Qin Yukun had no reaction, so Mrs. Chen scolded her sternly: "Kun'er, please don't be unreasonable and come to mother quickly."
He screamed so urgently because he was afraid that she would bite him, so Qingguan took the opportunity to leave with a smile.
"Mother, that woman is pretty, what are you doing to stop me?" Qin Yukun looked unhappy.
Mrs. Chen hurriedly backed away and said softly: "My son, this woman is the madman who bit the King Xian. No one knows whether her madness is cured or not, so why do you bother to provoke her."
"oh!"
Qin Yukun suddenly realized: "It turns out to be her. She is really unlucky."
"It's not her. I heard that King Xian was bitten by her and couldn't even get out of bed."
"Then why does mother still give her such heavy gifts?"
A sneer flowed from the corner of Chen's mouth and she said: "What do you know? The madman was born by the woman in front of me. I just want to shame Huayang's face. Holding your brother-in-law's thigh and thinking about the two ends of the rat's head, how can there be anything in the world? Such a good thing.”
Qin Yukun was impatient to hear this and said arrogantly: "What a shame, just send it out."
When Qingguan walked out of the inn, Huayang looked at her with cold eyes and suddenly sneered.
Qingguan didn't show any fear, she stepped forward with a smile and whispered: "Mother, did my daughter do something wrong? Please teach me."
Hua Yang was blocked and couldn't help but feel resentful. He didn't bother to say anything and walked away.
Wu Yanling and Ben didn't look at Qingguan seriously, with a hint of disdain on their lips, and they also got on the carriage.
Gu Qingyun was worried that she would not find a chance to trample Qingguan under her feet. She smiled faintly at the fourth young lady Gu Qinglian and said: "There are some people who just won't stop. Within a few days of recovering from their madness, they start to provoke men. . It seems that it’s because of lack of education.”
Qinglian was about to speak, but Qingguan beat her to it: "Third sister is really well-educated. Aunt Liu should be happy."
After saying that, she smiled faintly, held Chunni's hand, and climbed into the carriage.
Gu Qingyun was speechless for a long time by this sentence. She bit her teeth secretly and her face turned red. How could she not understand that this lunatic was mocking her for being raised by her aunt
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this sixth sister is so sharp-tongued, I didn't expect to be so powerful. Third sister, you're at a disadvantage now."
Gu Qinglian flicked her handkerchief and took the opportunity to make a last strike.
"Don't forget, you are also raised by your aunt." Gu Qingyun sneered and left.
Gu Qinglian paused, her eyes showing resentment.
