Becoming a widow for the sake of good fortune? The short-lived prince lived a hundred years

Seeing her about to rush out angrily, Tian Jiaying hurriedly stopped her: "Your father had no choice but to give the money to her. Can you get the money back by going?"

"What should I do?"

"Qier, he is the prince after all!"

"So what if he's a prince? Then I'll go find a prince too!" Yan Xueqi said, and went out angrily.

Tian Jiaying watched her leave and gently pressed her forehead. No matter what she did, the Marquis would say she was wrong, so she let Qi'er do it.

Although Yan Xueqi was very angry, after leaving the house, she asked the carriage to go to the east gate of Qionghua Garden.

That door is only accessible to people with entry cards.

The Sixth Prince had a courtyard there that he had rented for a long time, and she also had an access card given by the Sixth Prince.

She knew that the Sixth Prince would be here today, so she handed over her pass and the gatekeeper respectfully let her in.

There was someone guarding the gate of the courtyard. After being informed, she was led to a side hall and asked to wait.

Yan Xueqi had no temper at all here and was very obedient. Not only was she obedient and sat very quietly, she also paid attention to her manners.

At this time, in the back room, the Sixth Prince Chu Yunyan was sitting opposite a counselor. The man was in his forties, with a thin face and a faint "川" character between his eyebrows. He was wearing a simple robe that was dull in color but of fine quality.

In front of them stood a man in gray.

Chu Yunyan narrowed his eyes: "Did he really never leave the carriage from the beginning to the end?"

The man in gray nodded: "Yes, until the carriage left, it was only his personal attendant who handled it!"

Chu Yunyan waved his hand and sent them away. Then he said to his advisor, "What do you think, Mr. Yu?"

Mr. Yu laughed. "Your Highness, there's no need to doubt him. He's never been our formidable opponent, and he's not the one we should be dealing with. Even if Your Highness is wary of the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Masters, he shouldn't be wary of a sickly, elderly man with a dying age! So this test is completely unnecessary!"

This Mr. Yu is the Sixth Prince's most trusted person. He has always been the Sixth Prince's most capable aide. Now the Sixth Prince can compete with the Second Prince in power in the court and become a strong candidate for the Crown Prince. This is also the result of Mr. Yu's step-by-step planning.

Although he is the legitimate son, Nanxia gives priority to choosing virtuous and capable people when choosing a crown prince. If someone does not have the ability to handle the affairs of state, even if he is the legitimate son or the eldest son, he may not be appointed as the crown prince.

"But his people were able to handle the matter so quickly, and there were guards hidden in the crowd. Doesn't this speak volumes?"

Mr. Yu smiled and shook his head: "What's the problem? Your Highness, when you travel, besides the honor guard, don't you also have people secretly protecting you?"

The Sixth Prince pondered, "Mr. Yu, have you heard about this? His princess..."

"Tsk, a country girl, she's just being unreasonable and ignorant, why should we take it to heart?"

"But that country girl beat up the old man and got away with it!"

"It was only the first time. The Emperor is merciful. If it happens again, do you think she would dare? What is Your Highness worried about?"

"After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Weiyuan Marquis. The Weiyuan Marquis holds military power!"

"Hahaha, when it comes to children, it's never about the eldest daughter or the legitimate daughter. It's all about who the parents value and like the most!" Mr. Yu chuckled. "Raising the eldest daughter in the countryside and then bringing her back to Beijing to marry a sick man, how much weight do you think that would have on her?"

The two smiled at each other and fell silent.

The Sixth Prince stood up and said, "Mr. Yu, please feel free to do as you please. The young lady is here, I will go and meet her!"

Mr. Yu also laughed!

When the Sixth Prince arrived at the side hall, he saw a serene and peaceful young woman sitting quietly there, her profile soft and graceful. She was already outstanding in appearance, and with this kind of temperament, she seemed even more beautiful.

"Qier!" the prince called her gently.

Yan Xueqi turned around and showed a gentle smile that was just right: "Your Highness!"

"Why did Qi'er come to see me today?"

Yan Xueqi pouted slightly, her expression cute and adorable, and then a hint of melancholy appeared in her eyes.

She sighed softly and said, "I may not be able to attend the Spring Banquet the day after tomorrow!"

"Why?" The Sixth Prince was somewhat surprised. Yan Xueqi, one of the three most talented women in the capital, wouldn't go to such an event? Furthermore, judging by her expression, it wasn't as if she didn't want to go.

Yan Xueqi bit her lip and shook her head gently: "His Highness will definitely laugh at me if I tell you, so let's just forget about it!"

A dark light flashed in the depths of the Sixth Prince's eyes, but he smiled as he walked over, took her hand, and said gently, "Qier, when did the relationship between you and me become so distant? Or do you not consider me a friend?"

Yan Xueqi blushed. "Your Highness, this is a family matter. Today, my sister brought the Fifth Prince home and forced my parents to take all the money we have. The income hasn't come in yet, and I don't even have money to buy clothes. I can't go out wearing old clothes. How can I tell you this?"

The Sixth Prince shook his head and laughed, "Isn't it just a few pieces of clothing? Come on, I'll take you to Yunshang Residence right now!"

Yan Xueqi hesitated and felt embarrassed: "How can I let His Highness spend money? I can't do that!"

"Qier, don't say any more. If you say any more, it means you don't consider me as your own!" As he said that, he exerted force with his hands. Yan Xueqi let out a slight cry of surprise and was pulled into his arms.

She tried to break free, but her hands seemed powerless to push her away. The Sixth Prince embraced her and sniffed her hair. "Qier, I know you're even more angry about your sister being so shameless as to come to her parents' house and ask for money. Don't worry, I'll definitely help you get revenge in the future!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Why are you being so polite to me? Come on, I'll take you to visit Yunshang Residence!"

Yan Xueqi responded shyly, delicate and docile.

But when she was avoiding the Sixth Prince, the corners of her mouth curled up quietly.

She and the Sixth Prince had met privately several times before, and the Sixth Prince even gave her a private pass to Qionghua Garden, but they had never appeared in front of others together.

Moreover, there were rumors in the capital that the Queen intended to marry the Prime Minister's daughter to the Sixth Prince as his princess consort.

Today, as long as the Sixth Prince goes to Yunshang Residence with her, the rumors will change direction.

Everything was going as she expected.

Yunshangju is the most famous ready-made clothing store in the capital. Every month, it launches a piece of clothing made by Feng Pianpian, the capital's top embroiderer.

At the beginning of every month, before the clothes arrive at the store, the store will hold a pre-auction. After the pre-auction, the winner of the bid will pay a 10% deposit and pick it up on the 25th of the month. If the deposit is not picked up by then, the deposit will not be refunded and the clothes will be auctioned off separately!

This time, Yan Xueqi was determined to win it, and she bid a high price of one thousand and two taels of silver before she succeeded.

One thousand and two taels of silver for a piece of clothing is almost a sky-high price, but there is no shortage of rich people in the capital, and the clothing was made by Feng Pianxian herself, so it is not only a symbol of status, but also absolutely worth the money.

Anyone who takes a photo of the clothes will be in the spotlight and attract envious glances from others.

The news that Yan Xueqi won the bid has spread, and today is the date to pick up the clothes. If she doesn't have money to pick up the goods, she can't afford to lose face!

But now she is not worried anymore. As long as the Sixth Prince goes to Yunshangju, who would dare not give him face?

At this time, Yan Xining and Chu Jinxun were standing in front of the blue and white embroidered watery hundred-fold skirt!
