My husband married a concubine? I turned around and married the cold prince.

Unexpectedly, Zhang waited from afternoon to evening, but Xue Wanxian still did not arrive.

Zhang's face became darker and darker. She only knew that Xue Wanxian had returned, but she didn't know that he had brought a pregnant woman with him.

So when he saw that Xue Wanxian was late, he was convinced that An Qingqian was deliberately delaying her son's steps.

"Madam Chen, immediately send someone to Mingde Court to invite the Marquis over. I want to see what that An is trying to do!" Zhang slapped the table hard.

"Yes, I will go there myself right away." Nanny Chen had been waiting for Xue Wanxian to come back so that he could vent her and the old lady's anger.

However, as soon as she reached Mingde Courtyard, she was stopped by someone at the door.

"Madame Chen, what can I do for you?"

"Go and report it quickly. Just tell them that I want to see the Marquis." He was just a servant, so Nanny Chen didn't take him seriously and gave the order directly.

"Madame Chen, the Marquis is exhausted from all the traveling and has already gone to bed. We can talk about it tomorrow if there is anything else."

"Asleep? The Marquis has just returned and hasn't paid his respects to the old lady yet, how come he has gone to bed? You little servant, you actually deceived me!" Upon hearing this, Nanny Chen was furious and cursed the servant guarding the gate.

"I dare not lie. It was the Marquis's order. No one can go in and disturb him without his order. If anyone dares to go in, he will peel off a layer of our skin."

Hearing this, Nanny Chen took a long breath and looked towards the room in the yard. The light in the room where Xue Wanxian lived was indeed off, and it seemed that he had really fallen asleep.

But, the Marquis is the most filial son. Why wouldn’t he go to see the old lady first after returning from the border?

"Let me ask you, who is the Marquis with?" Nanny Chen always felt something was wrong.

"This..." The servant hesitated.

Having stayed in the backyard for so long, Nanny Chen understood what the other party meant. She suppressed her anger, took out a tael of silver from her sleeve and threw it into the servant's arms.

"The Marquis brought back a girl from the border, and they have indeed gone to bed." After receiving the silver, the servant naturally knew what to say.

"Hmph, you little bitch!" When she heard that it wasn't An Qingqian, Nanny Chen didn't know whether to be relieved or angry, and could only curse.

"Let me ask you again, how long did the Marquis stay with the Madam after he came back today?"

"Madam went outside to greet the Marquis, but later because the girl was not feeling well, the Marquis sent Madam away. Madam returned to Xihe Courtyard and did not come here again."

"Tell me everything you know." Nanny Chen realized something was wrong, so she stuffed him another ounce of silver.

"The Marquis also asked his wife to prepare a better courtyard for the girl. His wife asked someone to clean up the Hibiscus Courtyard. Moreover, according to my observation, the Marquis dotes on the girl very much."

"That girl's name is Liu Yiyi, and it seems she has been with the Marquis for a long time."

At An Qingqian's suggestion, the servant did not reveal the fact that Liu Yiyi was pregnant.

Nanny Chen nodded to show that she understood, then turned and left.

But he had already remembered Liu Yiyi in his heart.

After returning to Changshou Hall, Nanny Chen recounted everything she had just heard, adding some exaggeration.

"Humph, where did this vixen come from? How dare she do such a thing? Xian'er is a filial person. It must be that vixen who seduced Xian'er and prevented him from coming to see me!"

Hearing this, the old lady became even angrier. She didn't expect that it was not An, but another vixen.

However, no matter who it is, no one can affect the relationship between mother and son.

Zhang was determined to teach Liu Yiyi a lesson.

Zhang knew that Xue Wanxian was coming back and had been looking forward to it for the whole day. In the afternoon, she prepared a lot of complaints, but she didn't expect that Xue Wanxian didn't come at all.

So Zhang was very angry and didn't go to bed until almost morning.

"You said that Xue Wanxian didn't go to Changshou Hall until yesterday evening?" An Qingqian couldn't help but smile when she heard the news.

"Yes, I also find it strange. Isn't Xue Wanxian a very filial person? He didn't even go to see his mother on his first day back."

Yingyi also shook her head, expressing her incomprehension. Xue Wanxian's behavior was really unbelievable.

"I heard that the guy from Changshou Hall was so angry that he didn't sleep all night and didn't close his eyes until morning." Bo Yun put the last hairpin on An Qingqian and couldn't help laughing.

Yingyi couldn't help but smile when she heard that.

Others may not know, but An Qingqian knows it clearly. Liu Yiyi is the daughter of a military doctor and has been learning medicine since she was a child. Although she cannot compare with the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau, she is already very good compared with ordinary doctors.

Presumably, Liu Yiyi was worried that Xue Wanxian would look for her, so she secretly gave him something, otherwise, Xue Wanxian would not have even ignored his own mother.

Interesting, if Liu Yiyi faced off against Zhang, the duel might be exciting!

"Let's go to Changshou Hall and see how Zhang is doing recently?" An Qingqian raised the corner of her mouth.

When An Qingqian arrived, it was already one quarter past the hour of Si.

Unexpectedly, Xue Wanxian hasn't come yet.

"Miss, this..." When Bo Yun heard the news, he looked at An Qingqian in disbelief.

What on earth is Xue Wanxian doing?

At this time, people in the kitchen started preparing lunch.

"It seems that we came too early." An Qingqian said with an inexplicable smile.

This didn't happen in my previous life.

In the previous life, after Xue Wanxian brought Liu Yiyi back to the mansion, Liu Yiyi directly treated herself as the mistress of the mansion. Because of Xue Wanxian's obstruction, Liu Yiyi did not see herself.

Therefore, she did not have any sense of crisis, and that night she was taken by Xue Wanxian to Changshou Hall to meet Zhang.

Zhang was selfish to begin with and didn't like any woman getting close to her son. However, because Liu Yiyi was pregnant, she treated her with some kindness.

Also, because Liu Yiyi is only the daughter of a military doctor and her parents are not in the capital, she is easier to control than himself, so he chooses the lesser of two evils.

That's why she would join forces with Liu Yiyi to get rid of herself.

This time, my appearance disrupted Liu Yiyi's rhythm.

She did not go to see Zhang in advance and secretly offended Zhang. She really didn't know whether Zhang would like her again this time and join forces with her to deal with her?

Hearing the footsteps outside, Zhang was startled and quickly signaled the maid next to her to clean up the food. She sat up straight and put on a kind smile on her face.

Nanny Chen also quickly handed over a handkerchief and asked Zhang to wipe her mouth.

The two of them waited for a long time expectantly, but they didn't expect that the person who came was An Qingqian.

This was the first time Zhang met An Qingqian since the last time An Qingqian ordered in front of everyone not to send any meat to Changshou Hall.
