Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince
Chapter 180: Once Upon a Time
When Xiao Yuan saw Jing Hao coming, he calmly took his sister out of Kunning Palace.
"Brother," Chan Yi called out in a low voice as they approached the palace road, looking a little flustered, "That Prince Shun seems to be here with ill intentions."
"Don't be afraid, he won't dare to do anything." Xiao Yuan said in a deep voice, "With your aunt here, you don't have to worry about anything."
Yes, fortunately, her aunt knew her past and would definitely keep it a secret for her.
Chan Yi held the brocade box in her hand, not knowing whether to throw it away or not, as she had no idea what was in the box.
"Let's take a look at what's inside. Maybe he's just not happy because we lied to him. Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter, sister. You don't have to worry. As for everyone else, they're just here to watch the fun. Those who are innocent will be innocent." Xiao Yuan saw his sister's distress and quickly comforted her in a gentle voice.
After Chan Yi came back, she told him about her entanglement with Jing You, so Xiao Yuan knew that he had intentions towards his sister, but due to their identities, some things were not revealed. Now that his sister's identity has changed, it is obvious that he is beginning to make moves.
Chan Yi suppressed her panic and carefully opened the brocade box, and was shocked to find that inside the box was an emerald jade hairpin with a warm and transparent emerald jade cicada carved on the top.
"This..." Xiao Yuan looked at the jade hairpin in his sister's hand in confusion, until he saw the lifelike jade cicada, he sighed slightly.
"Brother," Chan Yi closed the brocade box and looked up at him, her eyes full of worry, "I originally had a jade hairpin carved with a jade cicada, but the jade was very ordinary, unlike this one which is jadeite. It seems that he picked up the jade hairpin that I dropped in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. When he came to the mansion to attend the lotus banquet, he must have seen me. Brother, do you think he would use this as a threat and say that I had an unclear relationship with him?"
So that's how it is. It's really unfair. Just because of a glance back, the Fourth Prince has fallen deeply in love with his sister. He hasn't dealt with Pei Jin yet, and now there's Prince Shun. Xiao Yuan shook his head, feeling helpless. Who told his sister to be so naturally beautiful?
"Sister, don't worry. Prince Shun will never fail to give face to the Queen no matter what. Don't worry, as long as you don't want to, he won't dare to force you." Xiao Yuan took the brocade box from his sister's hand and said.
Chan Yi nodded.
"Father and mother must have arrived. Let's go and greet them." Xiao Yuan's smile was warm.
The brother and sister walked towards Yixiang Pavilion, where the Queen's birthday banquet was held.
"Qianqian, you've returned to your home now. No matter what happens, your family will take care of it for you. Just do whatever you want without worrying too much." Xiao Yuan looked at his sister who was still a little uneasy and said, "You can do what girls like, such as appreciating flowers and lanterns, but don't restrict yourself because of the child. Mother said that in autumn, An'er will be old enough to be weaned, and your life will be more exciting in the future."
"Brother." Chan Yi's eyelashes were filled with tears. She had never expected that her gentle and polite brother would say such words.
How many women in this world are bound by the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, and their nature is buried early on, while their families are willing to let them do what they like without worries.
Xiao Yuan looked at his sister and nodded, saying, "Qianqian, you are my sister. I will support you in whatever you want to do, but I hope you will think about yourself before making a decision. An'er is not a problem. Even if he doesn't have his biological father by his side, my second brother and I will teach him well. You don't have to worry about this."
"Yeah." Chan Yi nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Yuan'er, why didn't you send Qianqian back home?" Mrs. Lin asked in surprise when she saw the pair of children coming together.
Xiao Changfeng on the side had an even darker face. When his daughter came over just now, she had attracted everyone's attention. Li Zan's eyes were almost tearing out, and he stared at his daughter blankly, which made him very unhappy.
"Mother, father, we just stayed in Kunning Palace for a little too long. I think my sister can't stay in the mansion forever. She will have to come out to meet people in the future. It would be better for her to show up at the Queen's birthday party." Xiao Yuan said in a low voice.
"Okay." Madam Lin glanced at her unhappy husband and said with a smile, "Come, Qianqian, sit next to mother. Husband, Yuan'er, don't worry, Che'er is over there, your seats are at the back, go over quickly."
Xiao Yuan exchanged glances with his sister, then walked away with a smile.
"Mrs. Lin, this must be the eldest daughter who just returned from your family, right?" Mrs. Zhang, wife of Minister Li, had been watching from the side for quite some time. Seeing that only the mother and daughter were left, she hurried over to chat with them.
"Hello, Madam Zhang," Madam Lin said with a faint smile, "Look at what you said. We only have one daughter in our family. Who else could it be but her?"
"She's really beautiful." Zhang didn't care and just looked Chan Yi up and down.
As soon as Chan Yi saw her, she knew that she must be a nosy person. After nodding to her slightly, she just kept chatting in private with her mother.
Seeing that she was ignored, Zhang immediately said to Madam Lin, "Madam Lin, you came late. You must not have seen that Prince Pei of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion fainted on the palace road. It was really scary. Miss must have just happened to see him, right?"
Chan Yi thought that he was trying to trick her and was really looking for trouble. Could it be that she saw her rescuing Pei Jin?
"Madam Zhang, who are you talking about?" Chan Yi looked up at her and asked in surprise, "I just returned to the capital and don't know anyone. Who is Prince Pei? We didn't see anyone when we entered the palace."
"Madam Zhang, what do you mean? Which eye of yours saw my daughter meet Master Pei? It's so funny." Madam Lin couldn't stand hearing the name Pei Jin the most. Every day, she looked at An'er's face that looked exactly like Pei Jin, and she was afraid that her daughter could not forget the old love. But this guy just kept bringing up things that were not related to the topic.
Only then did Zhang realize that what she said was a bit rash. She had only said it casually, but how could she have expected Mrs. Lin to react so strongly? Well, Master Pei had broken off his engagement with the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wuyang, and there were rumors that he was in poor health. Now, any lady with some status would not want their daughters to have even the slightest connection with him.
She smiled awkwardly and said, "Madam Lin, Miss, I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is really different now. The once proud and successful Prince Pei is now going to be a thing of the past. I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has planned to let him go into mourning, so he came to His Royal Highness to plead for mercy this morning. Think about it, he will be gone for three years. After three years, how can he have a chance to be reinstated? Besides, you must not know that this Prince Pei is said to have been poisoned by a strange poison that no one can cure..."
"Mrs. Zhang really dares to say anything."
The man's clear voice rang out.
Everyone's eyes turned to him.
