Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C150

In the past, Sir had always wanted to pull his back, but today, seeing that Xie Wanqing was not around for more than half a month, she finally came today, and was the first one to hit Xie Wanqing.

Sir casually asked a few questions, and since he was familiar with the books at home, he naturally answered them smoothly. Sir nodded his head in praise, and Xie Wanqing sat down.

“Xie Wanqing hasn’t come for so long, her homework hasn’t regressed yet. Everyone needs to learn from Xie Wanqing!” She had just casually said that one sentence, and then burst into laughter.

“I’m busy at home and …” Before she finished speaking, the group of people who were idling around naturally went out of their minds as well. Xie Wanqing did not bother to pay attention to them either, so Mister naturally understood.

He knew everything that happened in the residence and it was just on the surface. The things here were not things that a mere few scholars could meddle in. If he lost his job at the end, it would be worth it.

Xie Wanqing did not see anyone speak for a whole day. Originally, she wanted to teach others some homework, but because Xie Wanqing did not show up for more than half a month, Xie Wanyun became even more pleased with herself.

This kind of trivial matter was originally something that Xie Wanqing did not care about. However, when Xie Wanqing memorized it, she became quieter and quieter, and Xie Wanqing was happy that she had nothing to do.

After a few days, Xie Wanqing had changed her clothes after returning home from school and went to the old mistress’ room. Xie Wanqing knew very well that she needed the old mistress’s support to make him lose her power, but it was a pity that her current identity was still that of the Daughter of Concubine, so she naturally could not receive the affection of the old mistress, who had immersed herself in training for many years.

Everything in the old mistress’ room was as usual. At this moment, the old mistress was sitting quietly by herself with a snuff bottle in hand.

Even when she heard the door open, she still closed her eyes to rest. She did not even open her eyes to look, “Xianqing greets Grandmother!” In the dark room, the moment Xie Wanqing entered, she couldn’t help but feel a bit depressed.

“Yanqing, you’re here!” Xie Wanqing’s voice broke the silence, only then did the old lady open her eyes, her tone carrying a tinge of majesty and an unapproachable intent.

“Yes, I haven’t seen Grandmother for a long time, and I miss her so much that I came to visit her!” lowered her head, and could not help but tremble with fear. The old lady had extremely strict etiquette, so Xie Wanqing did not dare be sure if the old lady would side with him this time. Hence, she came here today, firstly to show her filial piety, secondly to test the waters.

However, from the looks of it, the old lady’s intentions were still unclear, but she was most likely not biased towards Xie Wanqing.

“I heard that you went to Han Hao’s room?” Her voice was still stern and cold, without any hint of emotion, but Xie Wanqing clearly felt that the old lady was not happy about it.

“Yes, Han Hao is Xianqing’s savior, Xianqing should be grateful to him, that’s why she came to look for him after coughing a few times!” What Xie Wanqing originally said was the truth, but the old lady had a trace of doubt in her eyes.

“Savior is the right choice, but you must know, County Prince Liang is not satisfied, Han Hao’s actions will affect your noble name!”

The madame’s words chilled Xie Wanqing to the core. Originally, in the heart of this person, the loyalty of a woman was more important than her life, Xie Wanqing wanted to refute her, but at this time, rebutting was naturally inappropriate.

Xie Wanqing was startled, then immediately said: “Xi Qing knows that she shouldn’t have angered County Prince Liang, but if she were to be unlucky, wouldn’t it mean that County Prince Liang would be hurt and vent his anger, and right now, Xi Qing is still here. As long as we find the appropriate time and ask for forgiveness, perhaps there would still be hope for Xu Xi Qing!”

Xie Wanqing said these words, but in her heart, she was more unwilling, whether it was because he wanted the old lady to flatter him or not.

But now, in order to please the Old Mistress, Xie Wanqing had no choice but to do this. To refute someone, she had to do it at a time when she was not showing any emotions, and not now, if she retorted now, she would make the Old Mistress hate Xie Wanqing even more.

“Evening, the County Prince Liang likes you. You must seize this opportunity to help your father on his career in the future!”

The old lady had a very earnest expression on her face, making Xie Wanqing feel that it was beneath her heart, but Xie Wanqing had no choice but to agree on the surface.

“Why don’t you go to County Prince Liang’s residence and take a look. Maybe County Prince Liang is just finding a way out!” The old mistress’ voice was light as she spoke.

But when Xie Wanqing’s gaze landed, could it be that she herself wanted to rush over to find Zhao Yuqi? Why didn’t she use her maiden name or something of the like at this time, Xie Wanqing was truly disdainful.

Grandmother, Xueqing thought that County Prince Liang would be tired of the frequent interactions between his and him, and now that I have the chance to calm down, it would be better for me to look for you later. I don’t think that County Prince Liang would be that angry, it would be nice to have a talk with you!

Xie Wanqing said, she seemed to be truly thinking carefully.

This idea made the madame nod. How could the madame not understand? She had an inexplicable good impression of Ai Hui. Since a young lady was so considerate, she must have put in a lot of effort.

“Then you need to have a good grasp of the situation, you can’t let County Prince Liang abandon you, too. County Prince Liang is an esteemed guest of our residence, you definitely can’t throw this away, Yanqing!” The old lady was kind and persuasive, yet she said such a thing, it really annoyed Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing’s words were originally an excuse for Xie Wanqing to give up. According to Zhao Yuqi’s personality, if she really liked a woman and had anything to do with other men, escaping would not be Zhao Yuqi’s style. Zhao Yuqi would fight with that person and then think of every means to take her back.

This was a man who was close to the skin in her previous life, Xie Wanqing could not understand more. At the latest, it would only be at the end of the year, so Zhao Yuqi would definitely find an excuse to come here, so Xie Wanqing was not in a rush.

He had not seen anyone for more than half a month and now, he actually did not have anything to say. The old mistress’ first words were to Zhao Yuqi, and she had shut her mouth to prevent him from missing an opportunity, which was truly detestable to him.

Just as she walked out of the old lady’s room, Xie Wanqing smiled and said to Yue Xin behind him: “Come, let’s go take a look at Han Hao!”

“Miss, you really do not know how to avoid suspicion, you and Young Master Han …” Yue Xin, who was at the back, really wanted to jump up and down, but Xie Wanqing seemed as if she couldn’t understand what was going on.

“What’s wrong with Han Hao and I, they can say whatever they want to, I will go to Han Hao’s dancing style, and give them more time to chat, what’s wrong with them being happy that I am happy!” Xie Wanqing half joked, half serious, and half nonchalant, really made Yue Xin very worried to death.

“Miss, the madame has already said so, yet you still want to go to her room. She will be unhappy!”

“Yue Xin, remember, no matter what happens, you have to hold on to your breath. Right now, rumors are indeed everywhere, but if you don’t let it ferment to a point where everyone knows about it, how am I going to break it? When Xie Wanqing said till here, the corner of her mouth twitched.

Although Yue Xin could not completely understand her words later on, Yue Xin knew that Xie Wanqing definitely had her own reasons and did not say anything.

Under the moonlight, the two walked forward, one in the front and the other in the back. Xie Wanqing arrived at the entrance of Han Hao’s courtyard, just in time to see a row of night watchmen pass by.

Xie Wanqing mysteriously walked past before sneaking into Han Hao’s courtyard and stealthily closing the door behind him. As for Yue Xin who was guarding outside, it seemed as if she didn’t want others to discover him.

“Why are you here?” Han Hao was currently in his courtyard pouring water onto Yue Du, and saw a figure. When he clearly saw that it was Xie Wanqing, Han Hao was indeed quite surprised.

Although within the academy, Han Hao’s peripheral vision had always been on Xie Wanqing, and yet on the surface, it had always been light.

Originally, Han Hao thought that he wouldn’t come back to look for Han Hao, so why bother finding such a boring person? But now that he had actually come, Han Hao was actually a little scared, and did not know how to face it.
