The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C220
Chapter 219 – Reunion after reunion
Qin Luofei followed Consort Shu, who wasn’t very big. If it wasn’t for the Emperor’s sudden promotion, no one would think of Su Mansion.
Qin Luofei looked all around, hoping to find some clues as soon as possible.
Consort Shu and Madame Su had reunited after a long time together, and the two of them chatted happily.
“Consort Shu, it’s rare for you to come personally, and Su Mansion doesn’t have much to welcome you. I’ll ask the servants to prepare a feast right now.”
“There’s no need to be polite, we’re all family members.” Consort Shu smiled.
“Right, how is Su Xin doing in the palace? Why didn’t I come back with you? ” After talking for a long time, Madame Su finally asked about her daughter.
“It’s alright, Madame Su doesn’t need to worry. Oh right, Su Mansion, didn’t I remember there was a wutong tree? How come I haven’t come here for dozens of years? ”
The Madame Su sighed, “Yes, it was cut down one year ago. I never thought that Consort Shu would remember it so clearly. ”
“Su Fei often mentioned this to me in the palace, so I naturally remember.” The Consort Shu laughed.
“She told you that?” Madame Su’s expression changed slightly. Qin Luofei, who was standing to the side, noticed it, as if she would stutter whenever Su Fei Fei is mentioned.
Consort Shu nodded and said, “Sister Su, you mentioned it.”
“Did she say anything else?” The Madame Su probed.
“No, what happened to Madame Su? Is it unwell? ” From Consort Shu’s probing tone, it seemed like her guess was probably correct. Whether or not that Su Fei was still in the palace, Su Xin, had yet to be investigated.
“I’ve been feeling a bit unwell recently. After my lord has gone to the Frontier Pass, I will recite scriptures day and night, but I hope to return safely.”
Consort Shu comforted her: “I heard the news and everything at the border was going smoothly. I hope that you don’t worry.”
After chatting for a while, Madame Su’s gaze landed on Qin Luofei who was standing at the side. From the door, when she saw Qin Luofei, she already felt that this maid’s appearance was outstanding. Her skin was tender and tender, and she didn’t seem like a maid at all.
“Even the servants in Consort Shu look so beautiful.” Madame Su sized Qin Luofei up.
Consort Shu only smiled. If she remembered correctly, Su Mansion should have another son, but his son was unconventional and a complete playboy. He had been here for so long, yet there was no sign of him.
“Mom, I heard there are two beauties at home?” Just as Su Xiaming walked into the courtyard, he heard his voice.
Consort Shu had already roughly guessed who it was.
The moment Su Xiaming walked in, he was attracted by Qin Luofei. Ye Zichen walked over to her and stared lewdly, while swallowing his saliva.
“Impudent, kneel down and greet Consort Shu.” Madame Su looked at Su Xiaming with an expression of disappointment.
“Consort Shu? You are Consort Shu, a distant relative who came to the palace to be his concubine? “As expected of someone from the palace. Her skin looks as white as snow, even a maidservant would look so beautiful.” Su Xiaming set his eyes on Qin Luofei.
Qin Luofei had a disdainful look on her face, but didn’t say a word.
“Tomorrow, hurry up and pay your respects to Consort Shu.” Madame Su emphasized once again, her tone was extremely serious.
“Madame Su, that’s fine. It’s not that there’s no need to be overly courteous in this palace, but there’s no need to pay respects here. ” Consort Shu had long heard that Su Xiaming was a sloppy person, and was definitely a playboy. She didn’t want to argue with such a man.
“It’s all my godson’s fault.” Madame Su lowered his head in shame.
“Mother, do you think it’s good for you to belittle your own son like this? Consort Shu, is it okay if you bestow me with your servant girls? ” Su Xiaming was still wandering around Qin Luofei.
“Unfilial son, get down.” Madame Su felt shamed and scolded him.
“Look at you, you will age faster if you get angry like this every day. “Elder sister is still the best.” Su Xiaming walked away after he finished speaking.
Elder sister? Qin Luofei’s eyes darkened. What was going on? On the way to Su Mansion, Consort Shu had already roughly told Qin Luofei about the situation. If Su Xin had a younger brother who made a mistake, it should be the man from earlier. But he, Su Xin, had been in the palace for so long, why was Su Xiaming still muttering “big sister”?
Consort Shu also noticed that something was amiss, but they did not make it too obvious. The Madame Su just stared at Su Xiaming and signaled him to leave immediately.
“Empress Dowager of the Consort Shu, you must be hungry as well. Let’s go have dinner together.” Madame Su Zhang Luo and maid Luo quickly served the dishes.
During the time it took for them to eat, Qin Luofei finally found a chance to hang around Su Mansion.
The Su Mansion was not considered big, so he did not need to worry about getting lost. Qin Luofei had always had a goal in mind, so the elder sister Su Xiaming spoke of should still be Su Xin. Could it be that the real Su Xin was still in Su Mansion?
Just at this moment, a man and a woman appeared in Qin Luofei’s line of sight. There was a man and a woman playing with each other in the backyard of Su Mansion.
“Xin’er, you’re so beautiful.” The man called out the woman’s name.
Xin’er? Could she be Su Xin? Just as Qin Luofei realized that the situation wasn’t right, two hands behind her grabbed her shoulders.
“maid, what are you peeping at?” Su Xiaming stared at her lustfully.
This playboy wanted to hook up with him? Qin Luofei lifted her foot and stepped heavily on his foot.
“You maid.” Su Xiaming cried out in pain.
Su Xiaming pointed at Qin Luofei and cursed.
“How dare you! How dare you step on my foot!”
In the Su Mansion, no one had ever dared to treat him in such a way, and yet, a mere maid was actually so ruthless.
“Young Master Su, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.” Qin Luofei hurriedly apologized. Actually, she did that on purpose.
After hearing Qin Luofei’s apology, Su Xiaming’s mood improved quite a bit. Beauty is always easy to forgive.
“Since you have apologized, I will not pursue the matter. It seems like you didn’t do it on purpose. Seeing how handsome I am, if it wasn’t for the fact that I was mistaken, you wouldn’t have the heart to step on me, right? ” Su Xiaming still felt that his appearance was not bad.
“Young Master Su is like a jade tree in the wind, I was just careless earlier.” When Qin Luofei turned around, the figure of that pair of people could no longer be seen.
Where did he go in the blink of an eye? Was that Su Xin just now?
“maid, what’s your name? Is it fun in the palace? If you don’t find it fun, you can come out of the palace and play with me. ” This time, Su Xiaming had his eyes on Qin Luofei.
“Young Master Su, who was the big sister you were talking about? Is it your own sister? ” Qin Luofei tried to probe her tone.
“This young master only has one older sister, and my older sister is as beautiful as a flower. “I believe you probably haven’t seen it before. There’s nothing you can do about it since we are siblings.”
Qin Luofei smiled, and said to Su Xiaming: “This humble servant has seen Su Fei a few times in the palace, she is indeed very beautiful.”
“No, you haven’t.”
Su Xiaming immediately denied.
“What is it? Young Master Su said I have not seen it before? Could there be another Su Fei in Su Mansion? ”
Su Xiaming spoke without thinking, it was very easy to get information out of him, and before he could even say two words, he had already exposed himself. Looks like Consort Shu’s guess was indeed correct. The woman whom she had just seen could possibly be Su Xin.
“Pah! Pah! I was wrong.” I’ve even forgotten that you’re a palace maid. Naturally, I’ve seen this young master’s sister. Speaking of which, maid, why did you come here during dinner? Were you looking for me? ”
After saying that, Su Xiaming began to make moves towards Qin Luofei.
“Young Master Su, you still haven’t explained it clearly. Do you still have Su Qian Jin in Su Mansion? “I am just curious. Just now, I saw a beautiful girl. I wonder who that girl is?”
“That was just a maid.”
“Is that so? The maids on the Su Mansion are also not bad looking, I had mistaken her to be the daughter of the Su Mansion. ”
In order to avoid Su Xiaming’s pestering, Qin Luofei had no choice but to return to Consort Shu’s side. Su Xiaming followed along, lustfully staring at Qin Luofei.
“Empress Dowager of the Consort Shu, do you not know whether this servant has been betrothed to me?” Su Xiaming boldly asked.
Consort Shu maintained her composure and laughed: “What’s wrong? Could it be that Prince Su has fallen for my servant? ”
“Exactly.” Su Xiaming’s eyes were still lustfully looking at Qin Luofei.
“Evil creature, Consort Shu doesn’t want to listen to his nonsense.” Madame Su was so angry that her face turned red, why would she give birth to such a shameless evildoer.
“Mom, is it wrong for me to like her?” Su Xiaming said without the slightest hesitation.
But, Qin’er has been following me since I entered the palace, and even until now, I can’t bear to part with her. There are countless gold coins outside the Young Master Su Palace, you can look for someone else. ” Consort Shu rejected Su Xiaming.
“Alright then, it’s boring to pretend I didn’t ask.” After Su Xiaming finished speaking, he left immediately.
Qin Luofei had finally gotten rid of this shadow, Consort Shu was chatting with Madame Su and did not receive any news about Su Fei. And tomorrow, they would have to rush back to the palace. It seemed that they could only get the news from Su Xiaming.
After dinner, Qin Luofei and Consort Shu returned to the guest room.
“Consort Shu, Madame Su is extremely tight-lipped, it’s simply impossible to find the reason from her mouth.”
“I’m also thinking of how I can find out more about Su Fei.”
“Why don’t you let me go find Su Xiaming? His words and actions are all rather casual, and from his mouth, it’s possible that he can ask us for the information we want.”
“But that is too dangerous. Su Xiaming is a playboy, if he does not respect you later, you can have him.” Consort Shu was worried about Qin Luofei’s safety.
“It’s fine, big sister Consort Shu you should rest first, I need to go out and take a look at the situation.” Qin Luofei’s martial arts were more than enough to deal with such a boastful offspring. Was she afraid of this Young Master Su? However, amongst the people in the palace, other than and Imperial Consort Yu, no one knew that she knew martial arts.
Because of the matter of Consort Shu’s rejection, Su Xiaming had always wanted to get whatever he could. It was only this time, when the woman he wanted was rejected, that Su Xiaming sat in the backyard talking to himself with a displeased expression.
“Isn’t it just a maid? “What’s so great about that? You’re giving it to me yet you don’t want it?” Su Xiaming muttered.
“Is that so? Is Young Master Su talking about Qin’er? ” Qin Luofei looked at Su Xiaming with a charming expression. The best way to deal with this kind of man was to let him take care of everything he wanted to, and then get something out of his mouth.
“Why are you here?” Su Xiaming was secretly happy in his heart, that the maid was still conquered by his handsomeness.
“Young Master Su, this servant just happened to pass by and saw you sulking by yourself, so I came over because I was worried. You’re not angry about what happened with Su Fei just now, are you? ”
As Qin Luofei spoke, she sat down, supporting her chin with her hand. She had a pure and innocent look on her face. Su Xiaming, who was sitting at the side, almost drooled. The maids in this palace truly had an extraordinary temperament.
“How could I possibly be angry over such a small matter?”
“It’s good that you’re not angry about that matter. It’s a pity that Su Fei can’t leave the palace to return home, otherwise, your family would have been reunited by now.”
