To be treated as a guest by Princess Anyang is to be instantly upgraded to a noble person in the imperial capital!
Those people around who looked down on Yan Mingzhu before suddenly began to flatter her.
"Miss Yan San is really a strange woman. Not only is she excellent in equestrian skills, but she also knows medicine. She easily caught the perpetrator. She is really a woman who cannot be compared to other women!"
"The Earl of Pingchang really knows how to educate their children. Miss Yan San is extremely talented, and Miss Yan Er has long been praised as the most talented woman in the imperial capital. Madam Yan, you are so lucky!"
"That's right, although Madam Yan, you are not Miss Yan San's biological mother, you are still the principal lady of the Earl's Mansion. The two daughters under your knees are so capable, and the Earl's Mansion will be prosperous and prosperous just around the corner. Just sit back and enjoy the blessings.
!”
…
Listening to the flattery of these people, Mrs. Deng could not laugh at all.
If others were praising Yan Qinglian, she, as a mother, would of course be happier and prouder than anyone else.
But they were praising that bitch Yan Mingzhu. Every time Yan Mingzhu was praised, her daughter Yan Qinglian was ignored.
This concubine is so lowly. These people are so blind that they dare to compare this bitch with her daughter!
But on the surface, the more unwilling Deng was, the brighter the smile on her face became.
"Everyone is so ridiculous. I didn't do anything. It's just the children at home who are sensible and smart."
And Yan Qinglian squeezed the handkerchief tightly, almost crushing it.
Her eyes were focused on Qi Jue's hand holding Yan Mingzhu!
Damn bitch, what kind of coquettish tricks did she use to make His Highness Prince Dingbei surround her? She was so angry!
Yan Mingzhu laughed when she heard Deng's extremely contrary words.
"Ms. Deng, you are only over thirty, but your memory is so bad. Considering that your memory has deteriorated due to your aging, I will remind you that I took my mother's coffin away from the Earl's Palace of Pingchang.
From that day on,
I, Yan Mingzhu, have nothing to do with the Earl's Mansion anymore. My extraordinary intelligence comes from my mother's family. If I really follow the Earl's Mansion, I am afraid I will become as stupid as your two children.
Ridiculous."
The flattering voices around them disappeared instantly, and everyone looked at Deng and Yan Qinglian as if they were laughing.
As the saying goes, family ugliness should not be exposed publicly, but at this moment, Yan Mingzhu exposed the ugliest side of Pingchang Earl's Mansion in front of everyone without giving any face to Deng.
"It seems that Miss Yan San has had a falling out with the Earl's Mansion?"
"That said, I remembered that Deng was brought in from the outer room before. When Miss Yan San's mother Yuan was still alive, Deng was raised outside by Pingchang Bo.
If Yuan's life had not been short-lived, how could she, a low-status concubine, have been chosen to be the head lady of the Earl's Mansion?"
"Now this serious daughter-in-law refuses to recognize her as her stepmother, and even refuses to give her face in front of her, making it difficult for her to step down. This is really a tumultuous scene!"
…
Deng twitched the corner of her mouth, tightened the round fan in her hand, and could hardly hold back the hypocritical smile on her face.
Yan Mingzhu, this damn bitch, dared to deny her face like this, making it impossible for her to get off the stage!
However, there are still people who feel that Deng is not shameful enough and are fanning the flames.
"The Earl of Pingchang is just a declining gentry. If I hadn't been lucky enough to marry the legitimate daughter of the Marquis Yongyi, and looking at the rich dowry of the Yuan family, I would have been drunk by the northwest wind!
You still have the nerve to claim to be the mother of Miss Yan San, bah! Miss Yan San is extremely beautiful, and only someone as talented as my eldest brother can be worthy of her. If Miss Yan San is willing to join my Ming family
, that is a great honor for our Ming family!"
Ming Zizhan is actually willing to use the entire Ming family to raise Yan Mingzhu's status, which shows that the Ming family really wants Yan Mingzhu to marry him!
However, judging from Yan Mingzhu's calm performance in the face of danger, she is indeed different from ordinary women in the boudoir. No wonder she makes the eldest son of the Ming family fall in love with her.
Deng's face alternated between black and green, which can be said to be extremely exciting.
At this moment, Qi Jue was unusually silent.
After hearing what Ming Zizhan said, he said nothing.
He just suddenly bent down slightly, wrapped his long arms around Yan Mingzhu's knees, and then hugged her directly in full view of everyone!
A very standard princess hug, holding the person firmly in her arms, Qi Jue's expression did not change at all.
But Yan Mingzhu was shocked by him.
"Your Highness, what are you doing? Put me down quickly."
Qi Jue said calmly: "After the matter is settled, it's time to deal with the injury on your foot. Don't move around. If you fall again, you won't be able to get out of bed in the next few months."
Although Yan Mingzhu knew that Qi Jue was thinking about her feet, but in full view of everyone, he just picked her up without caring, as if he was afraid that others would not misunderstand their relationship!
Sure enough, when Yan Mingzhu raised his head, he saw a circle of people around him. Except for Zhuang Ke, who was smiling happier than anyone else, most of the others' jaws almost dropped.
No one in the Manchu Empire knew that His Highness King Dingbei had always been shy about women. This also led to the fact that he was already in his twenties and there was not even a single roommate in the palace.
But what's going on now? Isn't it said that he is not close to women? Then what is the explanation for him taking the initiative to hug Yan Mingzhu?
Qi Jue, on the other hand, completely ignored the gazes of the people around him and only looked at Princess Anyang.
"Auntie Huang, her foot was injured, so my nephew took her away first."
Princess Anyang came to her senses, but she was quite happy.
Yan Mingzhu saved Ning Zhenbao and uncovered the murderer, making Princess Anyang look at her with admiration.
Such a strange woman was indeed a perfect match for her ninth nephew. Seeing that Qi Jue was willing to take the initiative and even seemed impatient, Princess Anyang was happy.
But it's not surprising that Qi Jue was anxious. After all, the Ming family openly expressed to everyone that they really wanted Yan Mingzhu to be the Ming family's wife.
If Qi Jue doesn't hurry up, his wife will be kidnapped!
"Go and get treatment quickly. Do you want me to call the imperial doctor over to treat Miss Yan San's leg?"
Qi Jue said lightly: "No need, the doctors in the palace have good medical skills."
It's okay to say that the doctor's medical skills are good, but there's no need to include the words "wanting a palace", right?
It was as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was taking Yan Mingzhu back to Dingbei Palace!
"Your Highness, I can leave by myself..."
"Are you afraid that your ankle is not swollen enough? Don't worry, with your weight, I can pick you up with one hand. Just stay there and don't move. Return to the palace."
The man's tone did not allow for the slightest comment. Yan Mingzhu had no choice but to pretend to be dead and bury half of her face in Qi Jue's chest.
Ming Zizhan was extremely angry.
"Brother, King Dingbei is robbing us again. No, no matter what happens this time, we can't let him take Miss Yan away!"
