The arms agent concubine takes the RV to raise a baby

The next morning, the streets and alleys of Huicheng were full of rumors that a wet nurse had died in the Duke Dingguo's Mansion. Although this was not a big deal, it was not small either. The wet nurse was none other than the eldest princess's wet nurse. The wet nurse was like a half mother to her, and the princess grew up drinking her milk from birth.

The eldest princess was heartbroken and went to the palace to ask the emperor to make the decision for her. However, before the emperor returned from the autumn hunt, the eldest princess went to the empress dowager's palace and made a scene, so the incident became known to everyone.

The wet nurse died in a stinky ditch. Her clothes were stripped off and it was unclear whether she was raped or not. Her family did not allow the investigation, but the death was extremely tragic and horrific.

Zi Teng told everyone the news she heard from outside. The little girls were all scared and said that a flower thief had come to the city. But it was a bit unreasonable for the flower thief to rob an old lady instead of little girls.

Anyway, there were all kinds of explanations, and the little girls were so scared that they stayed in their rooms as soon as it got dark and didn't dare to go out.

Hua Xiyu also stayed obediently in Liushuang Courtyard and made various preparations.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and tomorrow was the Osmanthus Feast at Prince Xuan's Mansion. That night, Hua Xiyu packed up his things and gave them to Ma Biao late at night, asking him to take them to the other side of the river tomorrow. The Yanshui River was very wide and large, and the section near Prince Xuan's Mansion was the widest section of the river, with a relatively slow current. There was a narrower section far downstream, where people were ferring, and Ma Biao could only cross the river from that ferry.

It was past three in the morning, and no one was active in the entire Huicheng. She told Ma Biao to set out at dawn, and arrived at the ferry just as dawn approached. When they arrived opposite the Xuanwang Mansion, it was almost noon.

"Boss, is someone here to pick us up?" Ma Biao had originally planned to go with them but had long since given up. It looked like they were going to flee, and he didn't want to live a life of escape.

"Stop asking questions. I will give you another sum of money when the job is done. Just be a good person from now on." Hua Xiyu didn't want to talk to him any more. He could take a nap when he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Alas, many things are planned by man but disposed by God. Hua Xiyu thought that her preparations were foolproof, but she didn't expect that there was a hidden danger behind her. Liu Jingcheng had a bird's eye view of all her movements. After Hua Xiyu left, Liu Jingcheng ordered A Tu to follow Ma Biao.

"Master, what is Miss Hua going to do?" Ah Tu asked in confusion. He had been secretly protecting Miss Hua for several days and was very confused about some of her behaviors. He had always wanted to ask her.

"We'll know tomorrow." Haha, everything will be clear tomorrow. Of course he knew her plan. She was going to run away from the marriage. Where could she go? Shuiyue Temple? Or somewhere else? There were still her things on Xiaojing Mountain. It was most likely that it could only be there.

He has arranged marriages with the woman three times and each time something happened to her. Now the fourth time she wants to run away from the marriage. How can this be possible?

Want to escape? That requires my permission.

Silent all night.

The next day, at noon, Nanny Yao came to urge the young lady to leave, saying that the carriage was waiting at the gate and asked her to set off for Prince Xuan's Palace.

Hua Xiyu was very unhappy when he was woken up from his sleep. He didn't expect that the ancients would get up so early. It was nothing important, just a banquet. How could they go to someone else's house as a guest at 8 o'clock in the morning?

What she didn't expect was that, after breakfast, Zi Teng and Lan Cao began to dress up the young lady. For Hua Xiyu's short hair, they selected various crowns, and then put on clothes layer by layer. This took more than two hours, but in the end Hua Xiyu was not satisfied.

Looking at the blurry image in the bronze mirror, if I enter Prince Xuan's Palace like this, I will definitely be the focus of the whole place. Well, since I have come to the ancient times, I must leave an unforgettable impression on people.

At least several years later, when people mention a certain year, month and day, they will think of the girl who amazed the world and tell their children and grandchildren about it. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.

The cosmetics of the ancients were all purely natural. Although the quality was good, the variety was too single and could not achieve the desired effect. She removed the makeup on her face and used her own cosmetics to put on beauty makeup. The face did not need to be so white, and the eyes had to be big and expressive, so eye shadow and mascara were indispensable. The tails of the eyes were slightly upturned, making them look more like fox eyes. The cheeks were applied with light blush, which was swept with a brush without any trace. From a distance, it was a pretty pink face. The dimple on the left cheek was painted in a special shape. It could not be seen when she was not smiling. When she smiled, a flower bloomed on her face, and the right corner of her mouth was slightly curved, which looked particularly charming.

"Damn it," she cursed softly, "I didn't expect I'm so beautiful." Whenever others said she was beautiful, she always thought they were just being polite and never took it to heart. She just knew that she was not ugly. But after dressing up carefully, it turned out that she was really beautiful.

This kind of beauty is not only about the good matching of facial features, but also about the innate temperament. It is the result of long-term rich material nourishment, and the development of a wealthy and affluent life and rich experience since childhood. It is confident and flamboyant, with a hint of intellectual temperament, gentle and quiet, but also mixed with domineering. This kind of temperament is not something that the ancients possessed.

She was very satisfied and wanted this effect.

(Looking at the photos of the imperial concubines left over from the Qing Dynasty, it is really unbearable to look at. None of their temperament and makeup can compare with modern ones.)

He put on the inner garment of his own design, put all the things he brought with him into his specially made trouser pockets, tied the bamboo pole used for breathing to his legs, and checked again before going out. After making sure that nothing was missed, he slowly walked towards the gate of the mansion with Qingxinghongmei.

It is the beginning of August in the lunar calendar, which should be September in the Gregorian calendar. No wonder the weather is not particularly hot, otherwise I would have gotten heatstroke without even going out if I had worn so many clothes.

After all this trouble, it was already 9:00 p.m. If I had gotten up half an hour later, I would probably not have been able to leave the house until now. I deeply felt that getting up early was really "not worth it".

Several young ladies from the Washington Palace who were qualified to attend such a banquet had already dressed up and were sitting in the carriages, waiting impatiently. Everyone was waiting for the eldest young lady. Hua Jiayi and Liang were sitting in the first carriage, Hua Ziqi was sitting in the second, and Qin Fangru was sitting in the third carriage, waiting for Hua Xiyu.

The original order was that Prime Minister Hua and Liang were in the first car, Hua Jiayi and Hua Xiyu were in the second car, and Hua Ziqi and Qin Fangru were in the third car. Jiayi didn't want to ride with her eldest sister, so she ran to squeeze with her mother.

Hua Ziqi was unwilling to ride in the same car with Qin Fangru. Seeing that Jiayi was not there, she immediately got into the second car and asked her twelve-year-old fifth sister Hua Ziyue to go with her. So Hua Xiyu had to ride in the same car with Qin Fangru.

Hua Xiyu had no idea about all these twists and turns. Every car was a car. As long as it could reach the destination, it was fine.

The Hua family set out in a mighty procession. Hua Hongyan and Hua Hongmin rode their horses on both sides of the group as they headed towards Prince Xuan's palace.

There was a constant stream of people and cars in front of Prince Xuan's mansion, and the ladies of each family were all dressed up and looked happy. After all, only officials of the fourth rank and above and their families were eligible to attend Princess Anping's birthday party. The level of your circle of friends determined your rank, which was also a symbol of honor and status.

In Prince Hong's mansion, Miao Xinyi knelt at the gate of Jingxi Courtyard early in the morning and begged for forgiveness.

He knew what his cousin was thinking, but he couldn't accept marrying her as his principal wife. It wasn't a matter of status or family background, he just couldn't accept it in his heart. He might have tolerated taking her as a concubine just to have one more mouth to feed, but he had just learned that the emperor was going to grant the marriage, and he was taking a concubine in advance. That would be too embarrassing for Miss Hua, and a responsible man would not let such a thing happen.

Not only does he have to give an explanation to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he also has to give Hua Qianyu the face she deserves. What's more, now that he knows that she is the mother of his children, how could he still want to marry another woman?

His mind is now full of her. He wants to see her smile, see her happy, see her angry, see her sharp-tongued at people. He wants to marry her, wants to be with her for the rest of his life, wants to be involved in her every moment. He knows that this is love, a deep love.

He absolutely did not want to marry a rigid and serious lady from a noble family. His reputation as a wife-killer was well known to everyone. He did not care much about it before, but now he cared a little. He was looking forward to his father coming back and issuing an edict soon. He could not wait any longer.

Looking at his cousin kneeling at the gate of the courtyard, he felt extremely annoyed. Mei Qingxue, the mistress of the Miao residence, was his biological aunt, but Miao Xinyi was born to a maid and had nothing to do with him. Last time, after she scolded his child as a wild child and was driven away, he thought she had stopped. But now, in order to go to the birthday party of Princess Anping in Prince Xuan's Mansion, she actually came back to beg him. It was really annoying.

"Master, why don't you take my cousin with you? There are so many talented young men coming to Prince Xuan's Mansion today..." Yiqi stopped talking here. The prince naturally understood the rest of the words. If he wanted to get rid of his cousin completely, the right way was to marry her off quickly.

I said it last time, so what if she was kicked out? The cousin just cried and moved back in anyway. So, I was right.

"Well, you go and arrange it." Liu Jingcheng thought it was feasible, otherwise he would be annoyed to death by this fake cousin.

Yiqi went through the people of the right age in his mind and finally chose Zhou Jingfeng, the illegitimate son of Minister Zhou. This man had a bad reputation, but he was a responsible and responsible person. In order to hit the target in one go, he also listed a few other candidates.

"Master, there is the illegitimate son of Minister Zhou, Zhou Jingfeng, the sixth son of the Zhou family, the illegitimate son of the Zhao family, Zhao Yishan, and another one, Zhong Xu. If these people can succeed, my cousin will be considered marrying above her station." Yiqi handed the information of several people to Liu Jingcheng.

"Well, it can be considered as paying off the debt my uncle was implicated in." Liu Jingcheng responded, and the matter was settled.

If it weren't for his mother's affairs that implicated the Miao family, how could he have tolerated Miao Xinyi's behavior over the years.

"Master, do you want to inform Prince Xuan?" Yiqi asked again.

"Of course, that's Anping's birthday," Liu Jingcheng said and walked out of the room. He had other things to do today and was not in the mood to worry about Miao Xinyi's affairs.

Yiqi looked at Miao Xinyi kneeling outside the yard and felt disgusted, but there was nothing he could do. "Cousin, go and get dressed. The prince has agreed."

Miao Xinyi got up with joy on her face and went to put on her makeup. She knew that her cousin loved her and still had feelings for her.

Liu Jingcheng walked to the courtyard of the two children. Chunliu was tying Lanxi's hair into a bun, nagging non-stop, "We went to Prince Xuan's Mansion today. If anyone says that you are wild children without a mother, you can fight back. We are the prince and princess of the palace. Our status is more noble than many people. Not only do we have a mother, but our mother is also very beautiful and powerful. She knows everything and can do everything. She is better than many people."

"Aunt Chunliu, where is my mother? Why doesn't she want us anymore?" Lan Xi turned around and asked Chunliu.

"Your mother has something important to do. She said she will come back to pick you up in a year," Chunliu said, then realized she had let the cat out of the bag and quickly stopped talking. Yes, it was said that she would come back in a year at most. Five years have passed, so how could the young lady disappear?

"We are all over five years old," Jingshan said unhappily from the side.

"She must have gotten into trouble. We need to be patient and wait for her. She will come back to you once she resolves the trouble."

Chunliu didn't know how to comfort the two children who missed their mother. The same words were becoming less and less convincing for the two little ones who were growing up day by day. She prayed silently in her heart, "Miss, please come back soon."

"Daddy will take you to see your mother today," Liu Jingcheng stepped into the yard and said to the two children in a firm voice.

"Really?" Lan Xi reacted faster than her brother this time and ran towards her father immediately.

"Really?" Jingshan couldn't believe it, but his father had never lied to them, so he chose to believe it.

"Really, Your Majesty, you found the lady." Chun Liu also became excited. This was really great.

"Miss?" Liu Jingcheng was so perceptive that he immediately caught the change in address.

"Your servant, I have always called her Miss, but I don't actually know her name." Chun Liu's lies couldn't even fool herself, so how could she fool Liu Jingcheng? He had a hunch that there was something he didn't know.

But he didn't have time to ask about it now. He put the phone watch on Dabao and found that the hands of the watch were still moving. He couldn't help but look at it carefully again. It was amazing that such a thing could move by itself.

Then I put a Swarovski crystal bracelet on my second baby. Although this bracelet is not as magical as a watch, its exquisiteness is incomparable to the current jewelry.

"Daddy, do I have to wear this?" Erbao raised her hand. She didn't want to wear it because it was uncomfortable on her wrist.

Dabao looked at the watch on his wrist and said that he could bear it for a while, and he would wear it as long as his father wanted him to.

"Wear them, these are what your mother left for you. Only your mother can recognize them. Use them to find your mother today."

Dabao and Erbao's eyes lit up and they looked at their father in surprise, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, ask Aunt Chunliu." Liu Jingcheng looked at Chunliu and asked her to give the children a positive answer.

"Yes, it's true. When you were born, your mother put it on your wrist. It is unique to her, just like your hats and socks. They are all unique. No one else has them. Only your mother can make them."

Chunliu had tears in her eyes. At this moment, she thought of the lady and the young lady.

"Aunt Chunliu, come along. Take the two of them to find mother today." Chunliu must be brought along. Currently, Chunliu is the only person who knows Hua Xiyu.

"It's not a good idea for me to go with you." Chun Liu was reluctant to go. Someone from Huafu must be there for today's event, and she was afraid of running into acquaintances.

Jingshan Lanxi has been drinking goat's milk since birth. The two children refused to accept the wet nurse found by the palace, so they had no choice but to buy a few sheep.

A wet nurse who doesn't breastfeed is just an ordinary servant. She cannot establish that kind of inseparable family relationship with the young master. The wet nurse is resentful and treats the brother and sister badly.

Three years ago, when she knew that the two young masters were not living well in the palace, she bid farewell to Master Shui Xin and sold herself to the palace. Seeing that she was particularly caring towards the two children, Lian Niang asked her to take care of the children exclusively and then dismissed the wet nurse.

Chunliu seldom went out since she came to the palace. She wore a hat every time she went out. She didn't want to meet people from the Washington Palace, and she was also afraid of meeting people from the General's Mansion, for fear that she would accidentally reveal her secrets when she met acquaintances.

"Pack up and leave now, just stay with the children." After saying that, he walked out without giving Chunliu any chance to refuse. A Shui was responsible for protecting the children's safety.

Lian Niang immediately asked someone to help Chun Liu clean up. In the past, Lian Niang would take the children out on such occasions.

A quarter of an hour later, Chunliu had simply packed up and Liu Jingcheng was already waiting in the carriage outside.

He had been thinking about the word "Miss" that Chunliu had unconsciously called him just now. Now, thinking back carefully to Chunliu's various behaviors, her concern for the two children went beyond the ordinary master-servant relationship and was more like that of a relative.

There are still many secrets about Hua Qianyu that he doesn't know.
