Princess Comes, Prince Obeys - C55
At noon, the carriage stopped in front of a noble and elegant manor. Shockingly, there were four large and powerful golden words in front of the manor: “Regent’s Manor”.
Yu Ling Jing opened the curtain and quickly got off the carriage, then turned around and extended his arm to support Qi Lun who was opening the curtain behind him. What a considerate man. How many people would be envious of such a scene?
Looking at the words “Regent’s Manor” in front of her door, she felt an unprecedented joy in her heart. Before she had entered the palace, she had wanted to flee from the mansion, or to roam the martial arts world, or to live in seclusion in the mountain forest, without a care in the world?
But now, for the first time, she felt that it was very intimate, like her own home. Was it because she had lived here for some time and felt some affection for it, or was it because someone she cared about lived here?
The butler stood by the door as if he was waiting for someone. Yu Ling Jing pulled Qi Lun County in, and slowly walked in. The housekeeper’s body bent, and his kind and peaceful face revealed a faint smile, “My prince. The Princess came back. The Madam Minister of the Left has been waiting in the lobby for a long time. ”
“Yes.” “Got it.” Yu Ling Jing coldly spat out a few words, and without even looking at the butler’s eyes, he pulled Qi Lan into the doorway.
Qi Wanjun was a bit excited in his heart. He couldn’t help but wish he could fly to his foster mother’s side like a little bird. Ever since the Qi Family had been annihilated, Qi Wan County had treated their foster father and mother as if they were real parents. Only in front of them could Qi Wan County relive its happiness as a daughter.
She cared about them, respected them, and had to protect them, so she said nothing about revenge in front of them. She was afraid they wouldn’t be able to help her out of caring for her family.
Just as they entered the hall, a graceful middle-aged woman wearing light brown silk clothes took two steps forward, “County Governor!” “You’re back.”
Qi Wanxian saw his foster mother make a naughty face, then he happily dived into her arms. Ever since the disaster at home, it was also the first time Qi and Hui County had let go of their hearts and acted like a spoiled child in front of their foster mother.
“How old are you? Still being naughty like a child? ” The Left Premier’s wife said smilingly as she hugged Qi Wanjun. She also glanced at Yu Lingjing who was beside her, who smiled and cupped her fists, “Young son-in-law is rude. “I’ve made mother-in-law wait a long time.”
The Left Premier’s wife smiled kindly. “No problem.”
Seeing Qi Wan’s sticking to the Left Premier’s wife, it was likely that the two of them would have a lot of secrets to talk about, so Yu Lingjing found an excuse, “That? Your son-in-law’s study still has a lot of official matters to handle, so he can’t accompany your mother-in-law anymore. ” As Yu Ling Jing spoke, he swept his gaze across Qi Wan County, and its eyes flickered with joy. This man was quite tactful, so she added another point to his heart.
“Your Highness, please do as you wish.” Madam Zuo said blandly.
Looking at Yu Ling Jing’s handsome back as he walked away, Madame Left Prime Minister said indifferently, “He’s a good man. I only hope that he will treat you sincerely. ”
Qi Wanjun slowly stuck his little head out from his mother’s bosom and said with a blissful expression, “Mother, don’t worry.” The prince dotes on me. ”
“That’s good. Mother, you can rest assured. ” As the Left Premier’s wife spoke, she patted Qi Dian’s small head.
“Go mother. I have a lot to say to you. ” He let go of the Left Premier’s wife with both hands, and with one hand he took her into his room.
They entered the room and sat down on the bed.
At this time, the maid, Liu Qi, walked in with a cup of tea. Qi Wan glanced at Liu Qi, and with a single glance from Qi Wan, Liu Qi tacitly stood at the door.
“County? Mother heard that you were sick, what exactly happened? ” Madam Zuo, who was holding Qi Shu’s small hand, frowned and asked with a worried expression.
Just now, when the Prince was present, she was too embarrassed to ask. It wasn’t because the Prince was taboo, but rather because the Regent was a member of the imperial family. He had just gotten married to a man who had just gotten married to a woman in the Qing-Yun Realm. He was still unsure of his temperament and personality. Therefore, it was better to avoid saying anything in front of him.
“I’m fine, mother. Don’t you think I’m better now? ” Qi Wanxian smiled as he looked at the Left Premier’s wife and said indifferently. Qi Wanxian had already expected that her foster father would find out sooner or later. The emperor had ordered someone to post a notice stating that this matter could not be concealed, so she thought that she could conceal it for a time.
“Your father was coming a few days ago? But we heard that the emperor has already asked, so we shouldn’t interfere in the affairs of the imperial family? Thus, today, I will come alone to see what exactly is going on.
County Governor, you can’t blame your mother and your foster father, right? ” The Left Premier’s wife felt a little sad. Even if her own daughter were to marry a member of the royal family, they would be helpless to do anything to her, would they?
“Where did mother say that?” I am very grateful that you have come to see me. ” As Qi Wanli spoke, he snuggled up to his mother with a blissful expression on his face.
The Left Prime Minister’s wife hugged Qi Rong County tightly. She was a child who was having a hard time. Was it because her kindness had saved the Regent of the current dynasty and caused him to be exterminated? And he had no choice but to marry the person he saved for the sake of revenge.
Who would have thought that before she had even married into the palace and had the chance to enjoy her fortune, she would have an urgent illness. Fortunately, the heavens were opening their eyes. This poor child was finally fine. He only hoped that she would be safe and sound in the future. I hope that the heavens will not make things difficult for this poor child anymore.
Although the child looked strong on the outside, she was very fragile on the inside. She was a sensible child. For fear of implicating the Zuo Xiang Fu, she did not mention anything about revenge in front of them.
As Madam Zuo thought about it, tears started to roll down her cheeks uncontrollably. Even her own daughter might not be able to match up to her at all.
“Good boy. “Good child.” As the Madam Minister of the Left spoke, she was already sobbing. She slowly let go of Qi Shu and turned her face away. She didn’t want this sensible child to see her sad appearance. That way, her heart would ache even more. But how could all this escape from the eyes of the county?
“Mother. Don’t feel sorry for me. I’m really good here. The prince favors me in everything, and follows me. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask my servant Liu Qi.” As he spoke, Qi Wan County shouted towards the door:
“Liu Qi. “Come in.”
Liu Qi heard Senior Martial Uncle call her and slowly walked in. He squatted down and said, “Liu Qi greets the wangfei and the madame.”
Madam Zuo immediately wiped the tears from her eyes with her sleeve and pretended to be calm. She slowly turned around and forced a stiff smile, “So you are Liu Qi? What a beautiful young maid. ”
“Thank you for your praise, madame.” Liu Qi said with an innocent face.
Looking at this girl, Madam Zuo really liked her. The Left Premier’s wife seemed to see the shadow of the past in her?
“How long have you been with the County?” Madam Zuo pretended to be indifferent.
“Reporting to the madame. Your servant has followed Princess Consort since the day she entered the estate. ” As Liu Qi said this, she glanced at Qi Wanshi. Qi Wanshi nodded, agreeing with her words.
Madam Zuo glanced at the two’s actions and realized that the relationship between the two of them was quite deep. Then he gently said to Liu Qi, “Come. Girl. Come to me. ”
Liu Qi once again glanced at Qi Wanqian County. She wanted to know the meaning behind Martial Aunt Wangfei’s words. Qi Wanshi lightly nodded his head, and Liu Qi walked to the side of the Madam Minister of the Left with a ‘hehe’ expression on her face.
“Girl. “How old is he?” The Minister of the Left looked at Liu Qi, pulled her small hand, and gently asked.
“Reporting to the madame.” Your servant is thirteen this year. ”
“Is he still a child? “But it’s going to be soon. In two years, she will grow up to be a big girl.” As the Madam Zuo Xiang spoke, she gently caressed Liu Qi’s forehead.
“My apologies to the madame.” Liu Qi said this with embarrassment, her face completely red. Having grown up, this was the first time other than Wang Concubine had pulled her and touched a stranger that was so close to her.
“County son.” Do you see how sweet this girl’s mouth is? I like it when I see it. ” The Left Prime Minister’s wife swept her gaze across Qi Wan County as she said this, and Qi Wan County smiled faintly. “Liu Qi is the person that the Duke Palace’s County trusted the most.”
“Oh? “Then I have to take a good look.” After listening to the words of the little girl, Madam Zuo became even more interested in this servant girl called Liu Qi. After looking at her carefully, she found that this little girl had a pretty face, and didn’t seem like a scheming girl. He was even more elated, thinking that if he was able to cultivate a person of his own to follow beside Little County, then he and the Master would be much more at ease in the future. Thinking about that, the Left Premier’s wife immediately took off an emerald bracelet from her arm and handed it over to Liu Qi, “Miss. You and I are friends at first sight. This is an old woman’s greeting gift. ”
“No, no, no. “Old madam, this servant cannot afford it.” When Liu Qi saw the old lady give such a precious gift to her for the first time, she took a few steps back with a frightened expression and waved her hand as she spoke.
From the looks of it, this little girl did not seem like she was faking it. Madam Zuo thought to herself. This way, she would like this girl even more. Still smiling, he continued, “It’s just a bracelet. I hope the girl doesn’t mind. ”
“Liu Qi. Since it’s from mother, you can accept it. ” Seeing her foster mother’s sincere appearance, she knew that her mother must have really liked Liu Qi, or else she wouldn’t have given her such a precious jade table, so she made a favor out of it.
“Since that’s the case. If wangfei says so, then this servant will thank the old mistress. ” As Liu Qi spoke, she received the bracelet and kowtowed a few times.
Seeing Liu Qi’s cute appearance, Qi Shu and the Left Premier both burst out laughing. The laughter was transmitted out of the palace and into the slowly moving white clouds.
