20. Chapter 20 The Difference

In the east wing room, the three masters and servants stared at each other.

"What kind of news is this? It's normal for the daughter of a boudoir's family to go out to worship Buddha, not to mention that Linggu Temple is an official temple, so why is it so strange?" Bai Wan's reaction was flat.

Lu Wu said in deep thought: "Miss, it's a little unusual. In the past, the third lady went out with great fanfare, and she also brought the fifth lady with her as a companion. This time, however, the second lady went quietly alone with the third lady."

"That's right!" Caiwei hurriedly nodded in support: "It's been three days since this happened, and I just heard this bit of news from Chama Liu. How can we hide such an honest matter so tightly? There must be something wrong inside."

Seeing what the two of them said, Bai Wan also became more alert. As to what the second wife Yan was plotting and whether it would involve him, Bai Wan had so many things to worry about.

In the Xueyue Pavilion in the west courtyard, the mother and daughter sitting opposite each other also had their own joys and sorrows.

Mrs. Yan clutched the brocade handkerchief and frowned in deep thought, while Qin Yuexi leaned lazily on the soft couch with a pair of misty eyes filled with intoxication.

Just three days ago, she couldn't believe that there really was a god-like man like King Yu in the world, who was cold yet affectionate, stalwart yet charming.

In the mist, his elegant grace was the only visible reality between heaven and earth. He just stood under the Three Saints Pagoda, staring at her for a long time.

Her brows furrowed into her temples, her eyes slanted, and her eyes were like a deep pool. She was intoxicated at the first sight, indulged in it, and could no longer break free...

"Madam, Xiaorong has been arranged to stay with Mother Lu." Yingge came in and replied softly, but still went out.

Qin Yuexi was puzzled. She stood up and took a look at Yan and said, "Mother Lu? Is she the woman in charge of the garden? Mother, why do you want people to stare at her?"

Yan sighed and said: "Xi'er, now you should learn to worry about some chores. Being a princess is not that simple."

As soon as her mother said the word "Princess", Qin Yuexi's face immediately brightened up. The usual feeling of boredom when hearing her mother's nagging had been thrown away long ago. She only softly held Yan's hand and said coquettishly: "That mother Teach me.”

Yan's face softened a little, and she patted her hand and said, "Do you still remember that Miss Ou San sent a letter during the old lady's birthday party? How can you say the exact words?"

"No, it means that His Royal Highness Prince Yu asked the uncle of the District family in private if there is a young lady with the word 'xi' in her maiden name who is about twelve or thirteen years old in the Qin family." Hearing the topic change suddenly, Qin Yuexi looked shy and her voice was as sweet as sticky honey: "That bad girl even asked my daughter if His Royal Highness Prince Yu admires her."

"Let's not talk about anything else. Let me ask you, how many girls in our family have the word "Xi" in their names and are twelve or thirteen years old?" Mrs. Yan's face was expressionless.

"Why is mother asking this? Of course there is only Xi'er..." The voice gradually became lowered, and Qin Yuexi's pink face suddenly turned pale.

"You've thought of it too, right?" Yan's words were like ice: "The Ou family doesn't know that in fact, apart from you, there is another young lady who combines these two things in our house, who just returned to the house a few years ago. The four girls—Qin, Qian, and Xi!"

"This is impossible!" Qin Yuexi suddenly stood up with a loud voice, her eyes red: "Who is she? How can a bitch born from a family of slaves win the favor of His Highness Prince Yu!"

"Then how long ago did you have King Yu to look at you differently?" Mrs. Yan said reluctantly: "You have strictly followed your boudoir training since you were a child and rarely showed up. Whenever you go out, I take you sisters with me. Why do I never know when you have met His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"

Qin Yuexi was choked and her chest heaved: "My mother made such random speculations, but she listened to Mrs. Lu's instigation."

"You are wrong, Mother Lu doesn't know anything about it." Mrs. Yan lowered her voice and told Qin Yuexi in detail about Qianxi picking flowers alone in Haitang Garden on the day of the birthday banquet, and then said: "Thinking of these women's private conversations

I always call the fourth girl 'Miss Xi' here, so I became more cautious and asked people to confirm that when Mother Lu bumped into the fourth girl, His Highness Prince Yu didn't care about Zhenshui Pavilion..."

"Mother, you are saying that that girl dared to have a private meeting with the prince!" Qin Yuexi's eyes widened: "No! She must have been seen by the prince when she was stealing flowers, right?"

"It's very possible." Ms. Yan mused: "This time we went to Linggu Temple to 'encounter' the prince, but the prince seemed completely indifferent, and the eldest grandmother of the District family was also puzzled. So, I just wondered, is it possible?

We and the Ou family all had a different idea. When Prince Yu asked about Girl Xi, was it just a casual chat? Or maybe this girl had met the prince in the village before entering the house..."

"Mom is really going further and further!" After understanding the whole story, Qin Yuexi gradually calmed down and regained her confidence and said proudly: "Even if it is true as mother said, the word 'xi' mentioned by the prince refers to the fourth girl, so what? She

With such appearance, background, and despicable behavior, the prince would only be disgusted and disdainful."

"As for what my mother said about this cheap girl, she used to live in Zhuangzi. It is possible that the prince has seen her before, but it is even more impossible! Since she had seen her before, she should have asked what she should have asked before. Why did she wait until the birthday banquet to ask about it?

.”

Yan opened her mouth to say something, but Qin Yuexi resolutely interrupted: "In short, no matter what the mother thinks, and no matter whether the prince really admires his daughter, once the daughter has taken this step, she will never look back and hope that her mother will fulfill her!"

"Why doesn't mother want to help you?" Mrs. Yan hurriedly stood up and took her daughter's hand: "Your brother is still so young, I'm afraid he can't count on the old prime minister; your uncle is not proud in front of the emperor. A few years ago, for

You were promoted and had an unpleasant quarrel with your father; when I asked your father, he never got a clear answer. How can I not worry about all these things!"

"I was soft-hearted about your sister at that time. I listened to your father and married her to the Marquis of Jingbei. She just wanted to have a good reputation, but she was just a showpiece and had no real power in the court. Fortunately, they are now a harmonious couple.

, I won’t mention it anymore.”

"But His Royal Highness Prince Yu is different. He holds a large number of troops, is powerful in the northwest, has real power and military exploits, and is the only emperor's uncle of our Great Yan Kingdom. If my son really becomes Princess Yu, he will be our Great Yan Kingdom's only empress dowager."

, besides the queen, the most noble woman, my mother will also count on you in the future."

Narrowing her eyes slightly, Qin Yuexi gently raised her chin: "Don't worry, mother, Brother Ming is the only legitimate son of our second wife. If my daughter becomes prominent in the future, how can she forget her biological brother? Besides, we are already in the same spirit."

"That's exactly the truth!" Mrs. Yan's face was filled with joy when she heard this.

How could Qin Yuexi not know her mother's intention to take advantage of her, but the prince's family has always been like this, so-called intertwined, and they all rely on marriage to take advantage of it. Even in the future, she will always need to use her mother's family and brother Ming.

What's more important is that this time she is completely devoted to Prince Yu and can't help herself. In this life, except Prince Yu, she will never look at any prince or grandson next to her, even Emperor Hui. In the east wing, the master

The three servants stared at each other with big eyes.
