The breeding model among all the worlds: I’m really not a scumbag!
Chapter 231 Two Mothers-in-Law
After hearing this, Qin Keqing couldn't help but nodded secretly.
This elder sister is experienced and was not confused or lost in her sense of proportion by the title of imperial concubine.
"Feng Lazi, don't be anxious."
Qin Keqing raised her eyes, looked at Wang Xifeng's anxious expression, and said slowly:
"The asparagus fern is a living being. It can come and go as it pleases. It is not something that mortals like us can interfere with."
"Even if you are a royal family, you still have to follow these principles. Calm down first and go before the Empress to wait for her instructions."
Suddenly, she pretended to cough a few times, then held her forehead with her hand, her face full of weakness:
"Oh, I'm feeling a little unwell all of a sudden. I'm afraid I can't be of much help. Sister, please go back first and let me rest."
After saying this, without caring about Wang Xifeng's expression, she directly signaled Ping'er to see the guest off, then turned and went upstairs, leaving Wang Xifeng outside the door.
Wang Xifeng stood at the door of Tianxiang Tower with suspicion in her heart, looking at the closed door with her brows twisted into knots.
This situation is so familiar!
When Zhuxian was around, she would hide in her boudoir all day long, never going out of the main door or the secondary door, and no one could even see her.
How could they be so similar now that Qin Keqing looks like this?
Could it be... A bold guess popped up in her mind. Could it be that Qin Keqing was also hiding some unspeakable secret in the house, just like Zhuxian did back then?
Once this idea came up, it grew like a weed.
Wang Xifeng gritted her teeth and squatted near Tianxiang Tower, ready to check what was going on. If it was the Bamboo Fairy, she would ask what to do in the future to turn the danger into safety?
……
Inside the Tianxiang Tower, the curtains were drawn low and the air was filled with pink.
Qin Keqing and Cao Rui sat opposite each other, their faces flushed and their breaths slightly panting. It was obvious that they were immersed in the joy of cultivation, and it was far from the end.
Poor Wang Xifeng was waiting outside with her eyes wide open, her heart feeling like it was being scratched by a cat, anxious and curious.
After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement.
She still wants to hold on.
But as a housekeeper, I have too little free time.
Soon, Yuanyang, the maidservant beside Lady Jia, came over and shouted from a distance:
"Second Madam, you have made it difficult for me to find you. The Madam and the old ancestor are talking about you. Please hurry over."
After hearing this, Wang Xifeng had no choice but to end the attempt to catch the adulterer.
But she did not give up. She rolled her eyes and arranged two maids to monitor nearby, one in the open and one in secret, to ensure that nothing went wrong.
After she finished her work, she went to ask the two maids if there was any movement in Tianxiang Tower.
Both maids shook their heads.
Since Wang Xifeng broke into Tianxiang Tower, Cao Rui had been keeping her in mind. After finishing his training with Qin Keqing, he directly activated his talent, the second wood, and transformed into a plant spirit, and escaped from the Jia Mansion directly from underground.
……
In the next few days, Cao Rui, who had a successful blind date, concentrated on conquering Princess Longyue. They often had secret meetings and successfully held her hand.
On this day, the two of them met in a pavilion deep in the garden of Master Zi's mansion. The place was surrounded by lush flowers and trees and was difficult for others to reach.
Longyue arrived first and was standing in the pavilion, twirling the corner of her clothes with her fingers. Her shy and expectant look was really tempting.
Cao Rui arrived shortly afterwards, reached out and gently held Longyue's hand, and asked in a low voice:
"Are you tired of waiting? Are you angry with me?"
Long Yue blushed and shook her head, saying angrily:
"You're the only one who would say that. I'm not that stingy."
As he spoke, Cao Rui used a little force to pull her closer. Their bodies were close together, and the atmosphere instantly became charming.
Cao Rui looked at Longyue's pink lips and felt that it was time to take the relationship to the next level, so he lowered his head.
Longyue seemed to know what he was going to do. She closed her eyes nervously, and her long eyelashes trembled constantly.
The moment Cao Rui's lips touched Longyue, it was as if an electric current passed through their hearts. Cao Rui kissed her gently and tasted the sweetness of the rouge on her lips.
After a long time, the two slowly separated.
Long Yue was shy, raised her hand and gently hit Cao Rui's chest, muttering:
"You, you are so bold. If you insult the princess, you will be beheaded."
Cao Rui hugged her warm and soft body and said with a smile: "I can't help feeling emotional, it's just that you are too charming."
Longyue's face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head with a shy look, but the smile at the corner of her mouth could not be hidden.
It took her a long while to recover and talk about business. Although she was the daughter of the Empress Dowager, she was raised by Concubine Jing since she was a child.
In other words, if Cao Rui wants to marry Longyue, he will have to deal with two mothers-in-law at the same time.
"Mother said that since our relationship has been settled, she wants to see what kind of person you are. Don't be afraid. Mother is a very kind person."
"Okay, whatever you want."
Cao Rui has rich experience in dealing with his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so he is not afraid at all.
On the day of meeting Concubine Jing, Cao Rui was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and a jade crown on his head. He had an upright posture, a dignified bearing, and yet was elegant and humble.
Under the cover of Longyue and Zi Gongzi, he sneaked into the Forbidden City again and entered Concubine Jing's palace.
"Your humble servant Cao Rui pays respects to the Empress Jing. May the Empress be well and at peace."
Concubine Jing sat at the top, looking at Cao Rui carefully. She really couldn't understand why Zhen Huan and Long Yue chose Cao Rui, a powerless boy like him after so many choices?
"Stand up. I heard Longyue talking about you all the time, so I called you here today. You know, Longyue grew up by my side since she was a child, and I love her like the apple of my eye."
Cao Rui knew that he had to express his opinion at this time and show that he cared:
"I know that your majesty loves Princess Longyue deeply. The princess is kind and innocent, and gets along very well with me. I am also deeply in love with the princess. I will live up to your majesty's expectations and protect the princess and love her all my life."
Concubine Jing nodded slightly, her expression relaxed a little, and she asked some more about Cao Rui's family affairs, knowledge and talents.
Cao Rui can handle all of them with ease. Don't ask, it's just the result of experience.
After a conversation, Concubine Jing's prejudice against him disappeared a little. Seeing that Longyue's eyes were full of Cao Rui, she thought, "It's okay, as long as Longyue likes him."
At worst, I can just give more dowry.
I will give you more subsidies later!
Concubine Jing relaxed and expressed her opinion, and then the much-anticipated feast began.
The three of them sat around the table, and the atmosphere was a little stiff at first.
Longyue quietly tugged at Cao Rui's sleeve. Cao Rui understood and took the lead in picking up a piece of fish, carefully picking out the fish bones, and put it into Longyue's bowl, saying softly:
"Princess, this sea bass is extremely delicious. Please try it."
Longyue blushed, took a light bite, and looked up at Cao Rui with joy in her eyes.
Concubine Jing saw this and immediately smiled like an aunt:
"Cao Rui, don't be so reserved. Eat more."
Cao Rui thanked him quickly, and after a few cups of tea and wine, laughter and joy gradually filled the table.
Cao Rui spoke wittily and told interesting stories outside the palace, which made Longyue giggle. Concubine Jing couldn't help laughing as well and interjected a few words from time to time. The meal was a very enjoyable one.
At this moment, an uninvited guest suddenly came and locked his eyes on Cao Rui as soon as he came in.
Cao Rui looked at her without hesitation and found that the other person's face looked very familiar. It turned out to be Zhen Huan, with a graceful figure and elegant manners, without any sign of oldness. He was immediately surprised.
"Mother, why are you here?" Longyue exclaimed in surprise and stood up to greet her.
