In the room, Xingnong and Xingqing were lying on the bed, and Xingnong told Xingqing her guess.
Xing Qing's eyes widened: "This... ..this is impossible? Mother is the prince's stepmother anyway!"
A stepmother is also a mother!
Xing Nong yawned: “This is just my guess, but if you recall the days when you lived in the princess’s mansion before, you will know whether Prince Yongan has any abnormality towards Shen Ruolan. You should be careful of the people in the princess’s mansion in the future.”
After her wedding, she will live in the East Palace, which is in the Imperial Palace. Although Xing Qing has her own mansion, Shen Ruolan and Wen Ruiqing are her biological fathers. She may not live with them, but she cannot ignore them. There will always be times when she comes into contact with them.
Prince Yong'an is a pervert, and Princess Changle is also abnormal.
Shen Ruolan is an idiot and Wen Ruiqing is selfish!
None of them is normal, who knows what will happen
After saying this, Xingnong turned over and fell asleep.
But Xing Qing couldn't fall asleep. She began to recall carefully. It seemed that there were indeed several times when she saw Prince Yong'an standing far away and peeking at her mother. She thought he was monitoring Shen Ruolan, but now that she thought about it, his expression didn't look like monitoring!
Xing Qing couldn't help but get goosebumps when she thought of this.
She decided that she would not go to the princess's mansion unless necessary in the future, and she would never live in the princess's mansion this time!
When grandma and Xinghui come, they will live together in the mansion bestowed by the emperor.
After figuring it out, Xingqing also fell asleep.

The next day, Chu Tiankuo got up early in the morning. He had to go to the governor's office in person to see if he could find out anything from the interrogation.
For the sake of Xingqing's reputation, Prince Yong'an couldn't involve Xingqing in this matter, and could only start with other abducted women.
However, no other girls were found on the boat yesterday, and Chu Tiankuo felt that this matter was not so easy to resolve.
He said to the maid who was serving the meal, "Don't disturb the Crown Princess's rest. If she wakes up, tell her that I'm going out for a while and will be back to eat with her in the evening. When she wakes up, remember to remind her to have breakfast. Prepare lunch for her..."
Chu Tiankuo had already told the palace maids what to prepare for breakfast last night. Now he gave some instructions on the dishes for lunch before leaving.
He was talking about the dishes that Xingnong liked to eat, and he was worried that the lower class people didn't know what Xingnong liked to eat.
It was just that when Xingnong lived in Xing Garden last time, he had repeatedly reminded him about the palace maids and the kitchen, so he had already memorized them.

Xingnong and Xingqing did not wake up until lunch time the next day.
When Xing Nong woke up, she glanced at the floor-standing Western clock and found that it was already eleven o'clock. After washing up, she asked the maidservant, "Where is the prince?"
"Replying to the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince left the house early in the morning. He said he would come back to have dinner with you in the evening. When he left, he specifically asked the kitchen to prepare several dishes for you. Would you like to order the meal now?"
Xing Nong nodded: "Serve the food!"
Xing Nong then had dinner with Xing Qing. While eating, Xing Qing looked at the dishes on the table and couldn't help but say, "Brother-in-law is so good to me. Every dish is my favorite!"
Xing Qing felt like crying but had no tears. Although she was not picky about food, her sister's favorite dishes were all spicy, and she couldn't stand anything too spicy!
Xing Nong wanted someone to make two more dishes for Xing Qing, but Xing Qing stopped him: "No, it would be a waste if we don't eat so many dishes!"
Xingnong also knew that Xingqing was afraid of being hungry in the past, so she cherished food very much and never left any leftovers. There were already four dishes on the table, and two bowls of bird's nests. If she added two more dishes, she would definitely be full, so she stopped.
So in order not to waste food, Xing Qing gritted her teeth and finished the meal with tears in her eyes.
After finishing the meal, Xing Qing said with red eyes and nose, "Sister, grandma and the others will soon arrive in the capital, right? I want to go see the mansion that the emperor gave me and move there."
Xing Nong thought that Gu would definitely not want to live in Xingyuan, and the mansion given by the emperor was also very good, so he nodded: "Okay, let's go over and see if there is anything missing. It's a good opportunity to buy it today."
Xing Nong thought that he must buy some for the servants who would serve him, as there was not a single servant in the mansion now.
At any rate, all this must be arranged before her wedding.
Xing Nong called Song Bai and said, "I want to go to the mansion that the emperor bestowed on Princess Xing Qing. The mansion is still in need of some servants. Song Bai, notify the pawnbroker to bring some people to Princess Xing Qing's mansion."
"I asked the steward to find the person from the dental shop. He is more familiar with this. I will send you and Princess Xingqing to the Princess's Mansion."
Then Xingnong and Xingqing went together to the mansion that the emperor had bestowed upon Xingqing.
The mansion was not far from Xingyuan and could be reached in about half an hour's walk.
There was no plaque for the mansion yet, so Xing Nong said to Song Bai, "Song Bai, when the time comes, have someone make a plaque for the Chen Mansion and hang it up."
"Yes!" Songbai responded and went to open the door with the key.
"Xingqing! Xingnong!" At this time, a carriage stopped in front of the mansion gate, and an urgent call sounded behind the three of them.
Xing Nong and Xing Qing turned around and saw Wen Ruiqing, Shen Ruoxi, and Princess Changle getting off the carriage.
Shen Ruoxi hurried over and grabbed Xing Qing's hand: "Xing Qing, your brother the prince really went to save you last night! He came back from school yesterday and saw me crying. He knew you wouldn't talk anymore, so he immediately said he would go and help find you! When he went out, he told us to go to the painting house to look for you, and said that people who were kidnapped would usually be sold to brothels and painting houses, and he went there to try his luck!"
Xing Nong saw people on the street looking at him, and his face darkened: "Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about? Xing Qing was in Xing Garden last night, who went to the painting boat!"
Xing Nong knew that in order to protect Xing Qing's reputation, Chu Tiankuo and Chu Yuehou had no intention of dragging Xing into it. They started with another woman to punish Prince Yong'an!
But what about Shen Ruoxi
As soon as she arrived, she started shouting loudly in the street, "What a brothel!"
Xing Qing was kidnapped to the houseboat. If this matter were to spread, how much of an impact would it have on Xing Qing's reputation? Did she know
Are they still qualified to be parents
Xing Qing's face looked a little ugly.
Shen Ruoxi realized that she had said the wrong thing, "I didn't say Xing Qing went to the painting boat, I asked Xing Qing to explain that the prince..." Princess Changle pulled Shen Ruoxi at this time: "Second mother, if you have anything to say, let's go into the mansion first."
Only then did Shen Ruoxi shut his mouth.
At this time, Songbai had already opened the door, and Xingnong directly pulled Xingqing into the mansion.
Shen Ruoxi, Wen Ruiqing and the other two hurried to catch up.
As soon as he entered the mansion, Shen Ruoxi hurriedly said: "Xing Qing, your father and I both know that the prince went to rescue you last night! He is your brother, how could he kidnap you? You have to explain it clearly!"
Wen Ruiqing also said: "Xingqing, go to the governor's office now and explain everything! Ask the governor to release the man!"
Princess Changle also said, "Sister, you should explain it clearly! Otherwise, brother Tianhao will be punished! If he goes into the governor's mansion, he won't be able to get out without losing a layer of skin!"
