"Who is here?" Princess An and the eldest princess put down the tea cups in their hands and asked suspiciously.
"The eldest princess, it is the Crown Prince of Qi who wants to see you." Aunt Qin said warmly.
"What is he here for?" Princess An and the eldest princess frowned. Even though she lived in seclusion, she still knew how perverse and ridiculous the prince of Qi was.
"I don't know, but I brought gifts here. Now I'm guarding the door." Aunt Qin said.
Princess An and the eldest princess were silent for a moment and said: "Let him go back first, just say that I am not feeling well and cannot see guests."
"Princess..." Aunt Qin whispered.
Princess An and the eldest daughter shook their hands: "Just say it like that!"
Aunt Qin still wanted to persuade her, but saw An and the eldest princess closing their eyes tiredly, so she had no choice but to retreat.
In front of Princess An and the eldest daughter's door, Feng Yu sat in a wheelchair under the canopy of the sun, leisurely took a cup of tea from Huaibao and took a sip.
Aunt Qin led several people down the steps of the Princess Mansion, went to the wheelchair and bowed respectfully: "Prince Qi, our eldest princess is not feeling well and it is inconvenient to see guests."
Feng Yu waved his hand noncommittally, and four chamberlains immediately came forward, holding gift boxes in their hands.
"Since my great-aunt is not feeling well, I won't bother you. I will come to see my great-aunt again when I have the opportunity." Feng Yu's lips were slightly curved, and his smile was elegant and gentle, without the slightest hint of cruelty or rudeness as rumored.
Aunt Qin looked at Feng Yu hesitantly. She always felt that the Prince Qi in front of her was completely different from the one in the rumors. Was the rumor misleading?
"This is a gift I brought to my great-aunt. Please send this gift in," Feng Yu said lazily, pointing at several gift boxes.
"This servant dare not accept the gift from the Crown Prince. I will wait until the eldest princess is well before inviting the Crown Prince to come over." Aunt Qin declined politely.
"My great-aunt is an elder, and I, a junior, am a guest from afar. I should have met my great-aunt, so why not give me a gift to show my affection." Feng Yu waved his hand carelessly, "As for the future, the future will come.
Let’s talk about it another day.”
After speaking, he patted the fence of the wheelchair, and four guards came over, lifted the wheelchair and got into the carriage behind him.
Several chamberlains came forward and presented the gift boxes in their hands to Aunt Qin.
Looking at Prince Qi who had already boarded the carriage, Aunt Qin had no choice but to have the gift accepted and took the maid back to the inner courtyard.
After hearing Aunt Qin's report, An and the eldest princess frowned and said, "Open it and take a look."
Several maids opened the gift boxes one by one. An and the eldest princess looked at them one by one and fell silent.
"Princess." Aunt Qin called in a low voice.
"It's not anything particularly precious. There are some things that seem very precious in the capital, but they're nothing in Qi, so just put them away."
Princess An and the eldest princess said warmly.
Aunt Qin nodded and ordered the maids to pack up and leave.
"The eldest princess, the Crown Prince of Qi...what is the reason for coming here today? I heard that this Crown Prince has been living next door to the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion before. Because of the assassination, he had an unclear dispute with the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion." Qin
The aunt asked cautiously, the appearance of Prince Qi was too sudden.
According to rumors, how could a person like him not care about a eldest princess who now lives in seclusion?
It is said that the Queen Mother dotes on him very much, even more than the King of Qi back then. The Emperor also likes him very much and responds to his requests. It can be said that the Prince of Qi is now in the limelight and even surpasses several princes.
"No matter what the reason is for him to come over, it's just an ordinary gift. It should be just a formality. Even if I want to see him, he may not necessarily do so." Princess An and the eldest daughter said, her brows slightly stretched, not afraid of this Qi.
The prince is indifferent, but he is afraid that the prince of Qi is enthusiastic.
This is very good now!
"Go and ask someone to find out if you have gone to the eldest princess Minghe." Princess Anhe ordered.
The only eldest princess who is still alive and in the capital is Ming and eldest princess. Compared with me, eldest princess Ming and eldest princess are not low-key. They will go to the palace to see the Queen Mother from time to time, and they have a very close relationship.
"Yes, I'll go check it out right now." Aunt Qin got the order and retreated.
After sending someone out, it didn't take long for him to get the news and come back to report: "Who went first to Princess Minghe's mansion?"
"Yes, it is said that Prince Qi prepared a gift today and first went to the eldest princess Minghe's house, and then came to our house. Princess Minghe met Prince Qi, but Prince Qi was unwell and did not stay longer.
, I went in for a while, had a cup of tea, and then came out."
An and the eldest princess were silent for a while before saying: "In that case, this matter has nothing to do with us. Maybe I, the eldest princess, am just taking a walk and don't take it to heart. What happened in the past will be the same now."
"My slave understands." Miss Qin's face relaxed, and she added, "Eldest Princess, will the three girls go to the lotus appreciation banquet, will anything happen?"
"The one in the palace is attracted by Yu Yuxi. Jiao'er will be fine. It's just that Yuxi...she must be my granddaughter after all." Princess An and the eldest daughter sighed, and her eyebrows knitted. This granddaughter would be obsessed with purpose when she was young.
, if you do such things and marry into the royal family, is it really a blessing?
Will the entire Xuanpinghou Mansion be dragged into the mud by her?
She had managed to save the Xuanping Hou Mansion, but now she was being dragged into a new round of power struggle. Princess An and the eldest princess were worried.
"Princess, don't worry, the prince is going to marry an equal wife." Aunt Qin said to Xie An and the princess.
"So what, Yuxi will always be his legitimate daughter. As long as she is Princess Duan, the Xuanping Houfu will definitely get involved even if they don't want to get involved." Princess An and the eldest princess said mentally and physically, "I'm already old.
Now that he's grown up, he can no longer manage many things, and Raven has always had such a temper, so I'm afraid he will eventually fall into his daughter's scheme."
Even if Yu Ruiwen doesn't have the temperament to fight for power, and his daughter has become Princess Duan, and she is also his second daughter that he has always doted on, and Qian and Mrs. Qian Shilang say something behind his back from time to time, will his son move in the direction of fighting for the throne?
, it’s really hard to say.
Princess An and the eldest daughter think that their son will probably know it!
"Princess Princess, don't worry. If there is one, there will be two. Mr. Hou doesn't believe in Mrs. Hou anymore." Aunt Qin knew what An and the eldest princess were worried about, so she comforted her in a low voice, "Master Hou, please make the decision this time.
, Promoting Aunt Zhou as an equal wife means that she is very dissatisfied with Mrs. Hou, and she will not listen to Mrs. Hou's ideas in the future."
"The Qian family is nothing to worry about. Mrs. Qian Shilang... is the most difficult one to deal with. How did you save Raven's life?" Princess An and the eldest sneered, she didn't believe this matter no matter what, but she had been there for so many years.
I have never been able to find a flaw, as if this thing is true.
Even she now doubted that she might have been worrying too much and that Mrs. Qian Shilang had really done this before.
"Princess, please don't worry. Since there is no decree on this matter now, the position of concubine may not be decided yet. The Queen Mother and the Empress have other more suitable candidates." Aunt Qin said.
Princess An and the eldest princess were silent for a long time before saying with a wry smile: "If she must marry into Prince Duan's palace, the side concubine is better than the main concubine."
Aunt Qin's heart moved, and she raised her head in horror and looked at Princess An and the eldest princess.
Princess Anhe shook her head, and her smile became more and more bitter. There were some things that she could not do if she didn't want to do them. For the sake of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion and her son's family, she had endured it for too long. Mrs. Qian Shilang was deeply scheming and had been
She used her son as a springboard, but her son believed her words, which made An and the eldest princess very helpless.
The fact that the Crown Prince of Qi went to visit the two surviving eldest princesses was spread among the aristocratic families in the capital. Some people doubted Feng Yu's purpose, while others felt that he was not a big deal. As a junior, Feng Yu went to see the two girls.
Grandma is nothing. As for the two different attitudes of Princess An and the eldest daughter and Princess Ming and the eldest daughter, it is also expected.
The two eldest princesses have completely different personalities, and their requests for an audience with Prince Qi are also different.
Some people said that the gift given by Prince Qi was very ordinary and could not be regarded as a precious gift. It was just a formality. Others said that Prince Qi was originally unwilling to go, but the Queen Mother ordered it, so he had to go.
, even if Ming and the eldest princess allowed him to enter the mansion, they would just take a sip of tea and leave.
The meaning of Hu Yan is very obvious.
After hearing these words, some people's hearts dropped again, as long as there was nothing unusual about Prince Qi.
In addition to the incident involving the Prince of Qi, there is another incident in the capital that has also moved many daughters of aristocratic families. Baishi Academy is actually going to start the exams in advance. I heard that today’s admissions are also better than in previous years. It is said that it is the palace’s intention.
A lot of time was wasted outside.
The entrance exam is advanced? The most important thing is Baishi Academy. The daughter of aristocratic family who wants to enroll today has been preparing for the Queen's Lotus Appreciation Banquet some time ago. Where can I find the time to study? Now that the entrance exam is advanced, many people are anxious and want to cry.
Now, they haven't read much books yet, and they usually tinker with pollen and needlework.
The lotus appreciation banquet requires each person to have one piece of embroidery. In order to make his embroidery more outstanding, the daughter of the aristocratic family tried every means to make it extremely exquisite, extremely gorgeous, and also wanted to be extremely outstanding.
If you show off your glory, you may even be able to marry into the royal family in the end. This is better than enrolling in White Rock Academy.
Besides, after the lotus appreciation feast, there is still time to study, so you can study again when the time comes.
But it just so happens that the entrance exam is now brought forward.
Yu Xijiao didn't care about these changes. She was now helping Yu Ruiwen deal with Yu Zhuqing's store. Yu Ruiwen gave him some case files from the Ministry of Justice. Originally, these case files could not be taken out, but when Ning's released them,
, Yu Ruiwen had a very good attitude and did not pursue the matter further, which made some officials in the Ministry of Punishment breathe a sigh of relief.
For these less important case files, it would be nothing to give a copy to Yu Ruiwen.
Looking at the case file in front of her, Yu Xijiao frowned slightly, this matter... is not over yet...
