Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince

"Princess, it should be the smell of the perfume on my body." Chan Yi said with a smile.

"No." Princess Qingyuan wrinkled her nose, sniffed Chanyi's body again, raised her head and said, "This smell is not the smell of perfume. My cousin has a faint orange flower and milk scent mixed together. It smells very good. I think I have smelled it somewhere before."

Chan Yi's face turned red. This... Her breasts were swollen and she was feeling uncomfortable. The handkerchief stuffed on her chest was wet. Perhaps Princess Qing Yuan smelled it.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" She blushed and said embarrassedly, "Maybe it's because I just drank milk and rose water."

"That must be the reason. Our princess has a very sensitive nose." Madam Lin and Empress Xiao looked at each other and deliberately joked.

"Oh, aunt, you are insulting me." Princess Qingyuan pouted and stood up, took Chanyi's arm and said, "Cousin, let's go and play with osmanthus flowers."

Chan Yi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Empress Xiao and her mother, and then went downstairs with Princess Qingyuan.

"your Highness"

"Your Highness the Princess"...

The young ladies all stood up and gathered around them, and when they heard that they were going to string osmanthus flowers, they happily followed them.

A clean and smooth bamboo mat has been laid under the tall osmanthus tree. The new moon and the setting sun gently shake the osmanthus tree, and the golden osmanthus flowers fall to the ground like snowflakes.

The young ladies sat together in twos and threes, stringing osmanthus flowers with needles and threads while chatting casually.

"Sister Lu, you seem to have lost weight again." Li Wanqing said in a low voice.

"Yes, yes." Gu Ningxia, the second lady of the Changning Marquis's family, was Li Wanqing's follower. She immediately followed suit, her eyes rolling around at Lu Jingqiu.

"Thank you two sisters for your concern. I tend to lose weight every summer, but I'll be fine after autumn." Lu Jingqiu smiled faintly while stringing osmanthus flowers quickly.

Chan Yi happened to be sitting opposite her. When she looked up, she saw that her smile looked very forced and the smile did not even reach her eyes.

"Oh, that's good. I was worried that Sister Lu was so sad about Master Pei's matter that she couldn't eat." Li Wanqing curled her lips, her voice neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the ladies sitting under the tree to hear.

"What do you mean, Sister Li? Why should I be sad about Master Pei's affairs?" Lu Jingqiu put down the string of flowers in her hand, her tone gentle but with a hint of severity.

Chan Yi felt inexplicably annoyed. She thought she had already put it aside, but when she heard them talking about Pei Jin, she couldn't help but worry. Did something happen to Pei Jin?

He had headaches before, and when they attacked, he was dying. Could it be that this disease had recurred? No wonder Miss Lu, as his fiancée, was so worried. This was also human nature.

"Sister Lu, oh, it's my fault. I forgot that you and Master Pei have nothing to do with each other anymore. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Wanqing said loudly with pretended humility.

Irrelevant? What's going on? Could it be that... Chan Yi couldn't help but prick up her ears and listen.

"Cousin, your flowers are hanging outside." Princess Qing Yuan reminded in a low voice. She had long noticed that her cousin seemed absent-minded. It turned out that she also liked to listen to gossip!

Thinking of Pei Jin, Princess Qing Yuan looked up at Lu Jing Qiu thoughtfully. After all these years, how could she not know Pei Jin's personality?

He broke off the engagement at all costs because he couldn't let go of his dead illegitimate son. He always felt that the death of this child and his concubine were closely related to his marriage.

Thinking of that lovely baby and that timid little concubine, Princess Qingyuan couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

Why did Brother Jin do this? If he didn't get married in this life, would he be able to revive his concubine and his concubine? Even if they were resurrected, could they still be his legal wife and legitimate son? How ridiculous.

"Princess, I'm just worried that they might start quarreling." Chan Yi smiled and said, "I'm the master after all. Do you want me to go and persuade them?"

"Ignore them, they always quarrel." Princess Qing Yuan said as if she didn't see anything. "It's harmless for the young ladies to quarrel."

Chan Yi nodded obediently, lowered her head and quickly put the flowers back on.

"Sister Lu, you're lucky to have broken off your engagement with Prince Pei, otherwise you would have been a widow for the rest of your life!" Gu Ningxia chuckled and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't be so sad. I would celebrate every day to celebrate that I've escaped from the sea of ​​suffering."

This this……

Chan Yi's hand trembled, and the tip of the needle suddenly pierced into her finger.

Break off the engagement? How is that possible?

It was only two or three months, what happened in the meantime? Why did they suddenly cancel their engagement? When she left, Mrs. Wang was preparing to go to the Marquis of Wuyang's mansion to make an appointment.

I don't know when this happened, and why I have never heard my mother talk about it. Maybe my mother and others are hiding it from her. Chan Yi's eyebrows twisted unconsciously.

Also, this young lady from the Changning Marquis family dares to say anything, but what right does she have to say that she will be a widow if she marries Pei Jin?

"Cousin, what happened to you?" Princess Qingyuan looked at Chanyi in surprise, "Your finger is bleeding."

"Oh, it's okay." Chan Yi smiled and put her finger into her mouth to hide her panic.

Chu Yue hurriedly took the silk and wanted to help, but Chan Yi stopped her with a shake of her head.

"Cousin, you'd better be careful and try not to do two things at once." Princess Qingyuan looked at her thoughtfully and continued to string flowers.

Chan Yi smiled awkwardly, stuck out her tongue and said, "I was just frightened. The noble ladies in the capital really dare to say anything."

Princess Qingyuan raised her eyebrows, smiled at Chanyi, and motioned for her to continue listening.

"Tsk tsk, what the second sister of the Gu family said is really amazing. I don't know who was the one who was so happy that he became incoherent after being looked at by Prince Pei." Li Wanqing said sarcastically, "It's really the fickleness of human nature. When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down."

"Hmph, Sister Qing, aren't you the same?" Gu Ningxia pouted and snorted in dissatisfaction.

The young ladies nearby began to whisper.

Chan Yi suddenly realized that the princess opposite her who was stringing flowers seriously was also listening to their conversation with her ears perked up like her.

Women all like gossip, let alone the man they once loved.

"I know, I know. I've heard people say that Master Pei was injured on the battlefield, so he can't be humane." The young lady from an unknown family said, "He is doing this for justice. If it were me, I would stay with him for the rest of my life."

What? Wounded on the battlefield, can't be treated humanely?

Chan Yi was stunned.
