Xiao Hanyuan felt that Qu Xuexin was the best among the four young ladies of Qu Mansion. Although she was not as beautiful as Qu Qiuyan, her manner was decent and elegant. However, the one his parents chose for him was Qu Moying. Qu Moying's eye disease hadn't recovered yet. Besides, he thought she was too frivolous.
She had already known about the marriage proposal between him and her, but she still went on a blind date. Wasn't it because she looked down upon his family and was attracted by He Mansion's wealth? Moreover, He Mansion was related to Lord Jing.
Even if such a woman was gorgeous, Xiao Hanyuan did not like her.
When he heard from the servants that she went on a blind date, he didn't believe it at first. He specially went to have a look, and he found that the servants were right. Qu Moying did go on a blind date.
Now that something had happened to Third Young Master He, his proposed marriage with Qu Moying might s
Qu Xuexin spent another two hours doing embroidery in Qu Moying's place. Only after East Mansion sent someone over to ask her back did she leave.After Qu Xuexin left with all the things she had brought over, Qu Moying put down the embroidery frame in her hand, and she looked at Qu Xuexin through the window."Lady, please rest your eyes!" Yu Chun stepped forward to help her remove the eye veil.Qu Moying leaned back and closed her eyes. Yu Chun gently rubbed the corners of her eyes to help her relax her eyes. Qu Moying had been embroidering for a long time just now. Once she was taking a rest, she did feel uncomfortable in her eyes.After coming in and cleaning up the tea set, Yu Dong served Qu Moying a new cup of tea. "Lady, what are First Lady and Young Master Xiao trying to do?""They asked me to go out on the Qixi Festival!" Qu Moying said indifferently. She did not know what exactly they were going to do, b
Putting down the chess piece in his hand, the emperor asked with a darkened face, "You want to marry Qu Mansion's lady as your Princess Consort?"Li Quan carefully lowered his head, not daring to look at the emperor's angry face.Pei Yuanjun stretched out his hand and said indifferently, "Your Majesty, I don't like any other women. How am I supposed to marry them?"Li Quan stole a glance at him, speechless. Only Lord Yun dared to speak to the emperor like this. The others, including the Crown Prince, did not even dare to breathe heavily when the emperor was angry."That won't do. Your Princess Consort must have a noble status." The emperor didn't agree.Pei Yuanjun also put down the chess piece in his hand, gracefully picked up the tea beside him, took a sip, and asked with a calm smile, "But how can I find a woman of noble status that I like? If I can't meet such a woman, I won't have a Princess Consort all my
Qu Xuexin asked with a smile, "Moying, it just so happens that I don't have anything else to do. Can I go out with you to take a look?"Qu Moying hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does Auntie know?""Don't worry. I've told my mother that I might take a walk with you. I haven't taken you for a walk yet after you returned to the capital because I couldn't find the right time. Since you are going out, let me go with you." Qu Xuexin was in high spirits. She pointed the embroidery frame and the needle box in the maid's hand and said, "Moying, I'll put my sewing box in your place.""Alright!" Qu Moying readily agreed.Qu Xuexin's maid, Hong Mei, followed Yu Dong into the room. After putting down the things in her hands, she followed Yu Dong out.The carriage had been waiting at the door for a long time. Qu Xuexin and Qu Moying got on the carriage together. The carriage was not small, so it was enough for the two maid
In addition to these two sets of clothes, the other small embroidery items were also excellent. They were embroidered in ways different from those in the capital. Thanks to the characteristics of the South, they were especially delicate and attractive compared with the embroidery items in the capital.Qu Moying pointed at a purple peony embroidery piece and said, "Give this away as the top prize."Aunt Yang said reluctantly, "Fourth Lady, such a beautiful embroidery item can be regarded as the most precious goods in ordinary stores!"Unlike the normal peony embroidery works, this peony embroidery was big and the embroidered peony was the famous purple peony, which was far more beautiful and outstanding than ordinary ones.Such a big piece of embroidery works could be made into a set of table screens.Qu Moying pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter. We need to have a good start. Since the prize is a
Hearing that Qu Moying had come, Madam Duan immediately sent an old maid by her side out to welcome Qu Moying. She had established herself in Earl Ling'an's Mansion. Although she was not as powerful as the second branch's Xiao, she was no longer a mere concubine who was at the mercy of others. After all, her position had changed.She was now the legitimate wife of the first branch, and the first branch had a legitimate heir, Ji Yuanhai. Moreover, the first branch had properties and businesses such as the dowry shops that once belonged to the ex-Crown Princess. In the past few days, they had been receiving the ex-Crown Princess' dowry shops from Crown Prince's Mansion. If all the ex-Crown Princess' belongings were returned, the first branch would definitely become wealthier than the second branch.Originally, Earl Ling'an's Mansion's second branch was far inferior to the first branch, and it was actually dependent on the first branch. However, the fir
Xie Feng looked up in shock. After she entered Eastern Palace, she behaved cautiously for a short period after the ex-Crown Princess died because she was afraid that Princess Ji would deal with her. But later, she found that Princess Ji treated her well, and she soon became cocky. Now that she had become the Crown Prince's bedroom maid, her complacency could be clearly seen in her eyes.Even in Eastern Palace, nobody dared to treat her like this, let alone the people in the Ji Family.She came here to send over some account books for Princess Ji, and she didn't expect that she would suffer such humiliation. When she looked up at Qu Moying, she found Qu Moying's aura imposing, which faintly resembled the image of the ex-Crown Princess in her memory. For a moment, she panicked, and her legs went soft.She was one of the few who knew how the ex-Crown Princess died."Is the ex-Crown Princess here to take revenge?" Thinking of th
Madam Duan uttered those words after a short hesitation.Qu Moying suddenly sat up straight and asked anxiously, "What did you find?""Third Lady seemed to have left on her own initiative with her maid on the night that the ex-Crown Princess entered Eastern Palace, and several servants saw it. They said in vivid detail, and it sounded to be true." Madam Duan frowned. She did not believe that Third Lady Ji would elope with someone.Third Lady Ji was still a child!She rarely went out. Every time she went out, she would follow Second Lady Ji. She depended on Second Lady Ji very much. How could she elope with someone?Qu Moying asked thoughtfully, "Madam, are you sure?""I am basically sure. Some of Madam's maids and old maids also witnessed it. Some of them said that they tried to stop Third Lady but failed. Third Lady said that she had something to do, and then she left the mansion from the back door
There were two maids in the carriage, and they helped a young lady out together. Qu Moying looked over at the young lady and found that she knew her. It was Yan Yujiao from Earl Fengyang's Mansion.Yan Yujiao was injured more seriously than Qu Moying. Blood flowed out of her forehead. One maid reached out to cover her forehead, and the other maid asked anxiously, "Where is the clinic?"The lad servant said, "Come with me."They hurriedly followed the lad servant and did not even bother to look at Qu Moying.The handsome young master stepped forward, bowed to Qu Moying, and said softly, "Lady, you should also go to the clinic to have a check!"At this point, Qu Moying should indeed go. It was not a bad idea to go to the clinic for a check. After all, before this matter was properly handled, she could not leave.She nodded and walked forward with the support of Yu Dong.She looked quite w
