What had happened to Chang De Gong Fu, in the end, had spread throughout the noble circles of Jing. Jing didn't lack for high officials and nobles. Once the matter spread, the Duke of Chang De didn't have the face to listen to the hidden mockery in other people's words. Every time he went to court, he would rush back to the fu as fast as he could.
Last time, he had gone to the houyuan to ask Liang shi what had happened. The result was that when he went in, he saw Liang shi crying her heart out. He knew that it wasn't easy to be a stepmother. Now that eldest yahuan had become a wang fei, Liang shi could only respect her. Even if she was angry, she could only endure.
They were all the guniang of Chang De Gong Fu. Why was it that san yahuan was so considerate and sensible, but eldest yahuan was so troublesome? Now that her paternal family had lost face, she, as a married girl, couldn't have anything good.
Liang Rong was walking in the yard when he coincidentally saw jiufu angrily rushing over. He hurriedly took a step back to greet the Duke of Chang De. At this time, the Duke of Chang De wasn't in the mood to pay attention to him. He nodded to him and strode away. Liang Rong couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
"Gongzi, what happened to Gu Laoye?" The manservant following behind him asked worriedly, "His complexion doesn't look very good."
Thinking about the rumors in Jing these past few days, Liang Rong furrowed his brows. Because of the difference between men and women, he hadn't seen Qu Qing Ju, this bijie in name, many times. But in his memory, every time he saw her, she liked to lower her head and didn't like to talk. How did things get to this stage? With aunt's personality, how could she not be able to control this little girl?
Right now, Chang De Gong Fu's reputation wasn't good. Some people were saying that the daughters of the Liang Family couldn't be married. It had ruined the reputations of the sisters in his family. This made him feel uneasy. This time, the person they had offended wasn't a normal person, but the second son of the imperial family, Duan Wang. It wouldn't be easy to suppress the rumors.
But he had heard long ago that Rui Wang's mother, Shu Fei, and Duan Wang's mother, Jing Fei, didn't get along. If he could get on Rui Wang's side, things would be easier. Even more, the Emperor was already old. All the imperial sons were adults. The Emperor favored Rui Wang the most. Recently, there had been rumors that the Emperor wanted to make Rui Wang the crown prince. If it was true, then walking on Rui Wang's path would be all good and no harm.
After Qu Qing Ju heard that Huang Yang had investigated the joke of Chang De Gong Fu, her mood was very good at noon. She ate an extra half bowl of rice and in the afternoon rewarded the zhengyuan servants.
Wang fei's actions caused all of the restless people in zhengyuan to scratch their heads in confusion. Logically, wang fei should be angry about this matter. Why did it not seem like that?
There were also some people who asked Huang Yang about it. Unfortunately, although Huang Yang looked young, he was very smart. No one could pry a word out of him.
Qu Qing Ju didn't care how the servants managed her. She sent away the other qieshi's greetings in the past two days. She only focused on combing through the memories of the original owner of her body. These memories weren't her own. In her heart, they were like clips from a movie. She could see them and remember them, but she didn't have a sense of immersion.
After figuring out everything, Qu Qing Ju simply enjoyed the flowers, books, and snacks until Zhong Jing and Granny Gong arrived.
The master of Zhong Jing Palace was the residence of Duan Wang's mufei Jing fei, and this mama had come to pass on Jing fei's message. The gist of it was that she had heard that this erxifu of hers had recovered from her illness. As mufei, she missed her and wanted her to take the two ce fei to Zhong Jing Palace to visit.
In the end, it was just that Jing fei saw that her erxifu hadn't gone to greet her for a long time and felt uncomfortable. In this dynasty, if a mother-in-law didn't put on some airs in front of her erxifu, how could she live up to the anger she had suffered as an erxifu? Of course, there were open-minded mothers-in-law, but her luck didn't seem to be so good and she didn't encounter such a good thing.
Since mufei wanted to see her, as the erxifu, she had to follow the wishes of her elders. She sent two yahuan to inform the two ce fei of the matter before Qu Qing Ju put the matter to one side.
At night, when He Heng returned to zhengyuan, he mentioned the matter to Qu Qing Ju.
"I heard that mufei wants to see you tomorrow?" After the two were turned red, they lay peacefully in the blankets. He Heng suddenly spoke as though he had thought of something, "You've been sick for more than a month and couldn't go to the palace to greet her. This isn't your fault. I've already had Qian Chang Xin prepare the gift. After court tomorrow, I will also go to mufei's place so you don't have to worry about anything else. "
Qu Qing Ju reached out her index finger to curl around He Heng's hair and made a sound of agreement. In her memories, this Jing fei had always been dissatisfied with her as an erxifu. But because it was a marriage bestowed by the Emperor, she managed to maintain a superficial relationship. But even so, in her words and actions, there was still a hint of disdain.
In the memories of the original owner, she was very fearful of Jing fei. It seemed that every time she entered the palace, she would be on tenterhooks. Now that Duan Wang was saying these things, was it to reassure her? No matter how much sincerity there was in the words, Qu Qing Ju accepted his good intentions.
"What, you're not happy?" He Heng could hear the indifference in her words and pulled her into his embrace. Looking at her exquisite brows, he smiled, "Ben wang is protecting you, you're not happy?"
"Mufei is wang ye's birth mother, she wouldn't be too hard on qie," Qu Qing Ju raised her head to look at He Heng. She sighed, "Qie knows that mufei isn't very satisfied with qie's paternal family. Qie can't blame mufei for this. Even qie can't do anything to my family. Before the Emperor bestowed the marriage, qie didn't even dare to think about marrying into the Imperial Family. " She reached out to wrap her arms around Duan Wang's neck, "Luckily wang ye didn't disdain qie because of Chang De Gong Fu, and protected qie everywhere. Qie is a lucky woman."
He Heng moved his eyes away from Qu Qing Ju's gaze and turned to tightly embrace her: "It's because wang fei is very good that ben wang is willing to protect you. The Qu family has nothing to do with you. The one I'm marrying is you, not the Qu Family. I don't care how absurd they are. As long as they don't bully you, I will pretend I don't see them."
"Wang ye … …" Qu Qing Ju buried her head in He Heng's neck. Inside, she thought, when He Heng said this, he didn't dare to look at her eyes. It seemed that he was guilty. The entire Chang De Gong Fu was disdainful, but the Tian Clan of Xiang Qing Hou Fu was different. The Tian Clan might not be the most powerful in the court, but they were a first class family in Jing City. And the Tian Clan treated her well. Duan Wang wouldn't have missed this point.
"Alright, don't think so much. Sleep early," He Heng lightly patted Qu Qing Ju's back as though he was coaxing a child to sleep, patting every now and then. Originally, he didn't have much affection for Qu shi so after marrying her, he had always been cold. It was only because of the Tian Clan that he had people treat her well. But after interacting with her in the recent days, he found that Qu shi wasn't a bland and tasteless woman. He wasn't a man that spoiled his qie and neglected his wife. So he wanted to interact more with his zhengfei and nurture the relationship between husband and wife. Even if they couldn't be as deep as the sea, they had to be respectful.
Qu Qing Ju wasn't just a beauty. Her words and actions were very attractive to him as a man. So the more they interacted, the more satisfied he was with her. Inside, he wanted to treat her even better. The words that came out of his mouth now might not be completely true, but they represented his intentions.
The two fell asleep in each other's embrace. Even though their thoughts were different, their positions were like the most intimate lovers in the world, in a beautiful sleeping position.
The next day, Qu Qing Ju was helped to wake up very early. After eating breakfast, she changed into a luxurious red floor-length brocade long dress. Her hair was pulled up into a flying immortal bun with a wig. She also picked out exquisite hairpins to use. Completely different from her usual bland appearance, she dressed whatever was pleasing to the eye. As to whether Jing Fei would dislike her, she only wanted to say that if she didn't like a person, that person's breathing would be wrong. Since she couldn't please others, then she would please herself.
Putting on the pearl embroidered shoes, Qu Qing Ju stood, the pendant hanging on her forehead slightly moving: "Let's go, are the two ce fei ready?"
"The two ce fei are already waiting," Yu Zan went forward to support Qu Qing Ju, "The carriage is ready. Does wang fei want to leave now?"
"It's about time. It's still more than an hour from here to Zhong Jing Palace. Get someone to call the two ce fei." It was just entering the palace, but Jing Fei had to call the two ce fei. She really was giving face to her, wang fei.
Feng Zi Jin and Jiang Yong Yu had been waiting outside the zhengyuan for a long time. Seeing wang fei come out, the two first stilled before bowing to Qu Qing Ju.
Qu Qing Ju looked at the two. Jiang Yong Yu's attire was standard. It wasn't eye-catching, but it showed the status of a ce fei. Feng Zi Jin's attire was much prettier. The pink girdle dress made her seem much more delicate.
The two ce fei were slightly surprised. The last few times wang fei had entered the palace, her attire had always been standard and undistinguished. Today, she was dressed so beautifully that the two couldn't react.
That flower pattern was embroidered so lifelike. It was probably Shu embroidery. It probably took a lot of time to embroider it. And that water drop pendant made from a ruby. The dark gold chain was woven into her hair. The ruby just happened to hang in the middle of her forehead. When it moved, it made people feel it was unspeakably beautiful.
Wang fei entering the palace dressed like this, wasn't she afraid that Jing Fei niangniang would say she was extravagant?
Not caring what the two thought, Qu Qing Ju took the yahuan and walked to the front.
When she got on the carriage in front, and the two ce fei got on the carriage behind, the second-rank yahuan that accompanied them finally showed a hint of surprise. Wang fei really looked beautiful today. No wonder wang ye liked to go to zhengyuan more and more.
After the carriage entered the palace gates, it couldn't go any further. Qu Qing Ju stepped on the back of a taijian to get off the carriage. She looked at the long green path in front of her, and the tall red walls beside the path. She couldn't help but raise her head. She only saw the cloudless blue sky.
Feng Zi Jin stepped on the taijian's back to get off the carriage. Seeing the taijian kneeling beside Qu Qing Ju's carriage, she lightly snorted. A few days ago, wang fei had slipped when she stepped on the taijian's back to get off the carriage. She didn't like using the taijian as a footstool. Now that she was in the palace, she still had to follow the rules of the Imperial Family. She really thought she was brave.
Jiang Yong Yu glanced at Feng Zi Jin and quickened her steps to stand behind Qu Qing Ju. Feng Zi Jin was so angry that she snorted again before following her steps.
