Not long after, Princess Yuanheng arrived.
Li Qingyi bowed and said, "Princess Princess."
Princess Yuanheng came all the way and finally calmed down, but now she saw Li Qingyi's calm face, as if nothing had happened, and her mood became extremely bad again.
Was she right or wrong in bringing Li Qingyi to the Wei family?
"Princess, is sister Jin'er's injury okay?"
Hearing Li Qingyi's initiative to ask, Princess Yuanheng didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Li Qingyi came up with the idea, but the decision-making power rests with the Wei family. She cannot be blamed in any case.
But was Li Qingyi really kind-hearted when he gave them such an idea?
With this thought in mind, she asked, "Why on earth did you give me this idea?"
Li Qingyi smiled secretly. Her mother was still not good at hiding her scheming as before, "The fourth prince saved sister Jin'er. It was a very important matter. I had an idea to solve it. Why didn't I tell her? After all, the princess is my biological mother. Look at the Buddha’s face without looking at the monk’s face.”
Princess Yuanheng's face was tense. She had not yet entered the role of a loving mother, but Li Qingyi had become a filial daughter first.
What she meant was, Wei Jin'er harmed me, I don't care about her, it's just for your sake.
After a long while, Princess Yuanheng took a deep breath and said: "If the fourth prince doesn't come, he can go to the palace early this morning to report to Queen Ming that Jin'er fell into the water and was frightened. She accidentally overturned the boiling water and was scalded. The injury was too serious and she needed to be sent back to her hometown to recover." , It’s a pity... someone leaked the news to the Fourth Prince."
Li Qingyi lowered his eyes, "Originally, Mr. Wei and the princess love their daughter very much and cannot bear to hurt Jin'er too much. Who would have thought that the fourth prince would arrive in time."
Princess Yuanheng was slightly startled. Sure enough, Li Qingyi, like Concubine Shu, was very considerate of the overall situation.
Jin'er said they were selfish, but Li Qingyi understood that they came up with this idea of scalding because they loved and protected her.
If not, according to Wei Shicheng's original idea, he would have cut off Jin'er's hand directly. In that case, it will be useless for anyone to come...
Princess Yuanheng felt her heart was filled with panic, so she stood up and said, "I heard that the Li family arrived in Beijing early this morning. If you want to go back, go back and have a look."
Li Qingyi saluted, "Yes, thank you very much, Princess."
"One more thing. Mr. Qin saved you last night. It's time for us to come and say thank you. I will prepare a thank you gift for you. You don't have to worry about anything else."
"Yes." Li Qingyi said in agreement, but he was cursing in his heart. Most people would look down on ordinary thank you gifts, so he had to say it in person for it to count!
Princess Yuanheng looked at her and hesitated for a moment, then said, "If possible, I hope you can call me mother."
Li Qingyi looked up at her, their eyes met, and an indescribable atmosphere flowed around them.
After a long while, Li Qingyi whispered: "Mother."
Princess Yuanheng seemed to be relieved, nodded, and left Zhuoxiangyuan.
Silan asked curiously: "Girl, haven't you always been reluctant to call the princess mother? Why did you agree to it this time?"
Li Qingyi smiled: "If I didn't change my mind before, it was because the time had not come yet."
Woad was surprised, "Then what time is it now?"
"Wei Jin'er just had a quarrel with her. If she heard that I changed my name to mother, what do you think Wei Jin'er would think?"
"Ah!" Silan couldn't help but exclaim softly, "If Miss Wei knows about it, will she think that the princess has given up on her and started getting close to the girl instead? That shouldn't be the case, right?"
Li Qingyi stroked the shadow cast by Qiansha in front of the window with his fingers, "Some things, as long as there is a little doubt, will take root and sprout into that small heart, making people feel particularly uncomfortable and uncomfortable..."
She paused and said, "I heard that something happened in Concubine Wei Shu's palace last night?"
"Well, what Chang Lan just said was that someone had tampered with Concubine Shu's meal last night and poisoned five palace attendants to death. The Queen got furious and punished all the palace attendants in Concubine Shu's palace."
"It seems that we have to find a way to remind Concubine Shu to prevent her from getting caught."
Regarding matters in the palace, Li Qingyi and Qin Zeng were of the same mind and put the interests of the emperor and the prince first in everything.
The emperor is the king of a country. He often cannot help himself. It is impossible for him to favor the queen and the prince unconditionally.
Therefore, the queen, mother and son also have to be careful in their planning at many times to avoid being assassinated by others.
If something happens to Concubine Wei Shu, the fourth prince will completely tear the Wei family away from the queen. Although Wei Shicheng was not a good person, as the official minister, he still played a very important role in the court.
Therefore, Li Qingyi only allowed the Wei family to fall, and could not allow them to be abducted by the fourth prince.
Just as he was thinking about how to give Concubine Shu a heads up, Chang Ning came in and reported, "Miss, the third girl is here."
Li Qingyi stood up and took a few steps outside. He saw Wei Laner wearing a brand new Qiancao color fairy dress with wide sleeves and a fluttering blue butterfly on her bun. It was obvious that her mood was as light as the butterfly.
"Sister Li!"
"You're here, why don't you see Sister Baozhu?"
After the two entered the house, Wei Laner said mysteriously: "Second aunt is very angry. Second sister will definitely not come out to hang out."
"Is it because of Aunt Wen?"
Now the first bedroom is heavy because of Wei Jin'er, the second bedroom is in chaos because of Aunt Wen, and only the third bedroom is relaxed. I heard that the third wife has been in a particularly good mood recently, and her figure has become a bit mellower.
"Isn't it?" Wei Lan'er whispered: "That Wen Yuniang is indeed a seducer. She greets everyone she meets with a smile and is gentle and courteous. Moreover, she has a lot of money with her. She has only been in the house for a few days. There are so many things in this mansion. She is so overwhelmed with money! The servants are all rushing to do the work in Suochun Pavilion! Can Second Aunt not be angry?"
Li Qingyi smiled: "Everyone says that Ah Du can't tolerate worldly things, but who doesn't worship the God of Wealth!"
"Yes! I heard that this Dragon Boat Festival, Aunt Wen also sent a festive gift to the second aunt's family in the name of the second uncle and the second aunt. It was very generous!"
Li Qingyi said "Ah", "Isn't this a slap in the second lady's face?"
My uncle gave gifts to his father-in-law's family with money from his concubine's house. This is too shabby!
Wei Laner tried his best to suppress his gloating, "It is said that Wen Yuniang, considering that the second brother-in-law didn't have much savings, suggested to the second uncle that she would provide the money to handle the wedding ceremony for the second brother-in-law. Then the second uncle would have face, and the second aunt would also have face in her family."
"Then the second master agreed?"
Wei Laner nodded, "The second uncle originally thought this was not good, but when he thought that he had never given any good things to the Yue family in these years, it was very shameful. After hearing Wen Yuniang's slander, he became a little moved. Because of this, the second uncle My aunt even had a big quarrel with my second uncle, but my second uncle insisted on going his own way, saying that he borrowed it from Wen Yuniang and would return it to her later."
The second wife married at a low age, and after marrying into the Wei family, she did not live a good life with Wei Shiyuan for a few days. It was only in the past year or two that things improved.
Over the years, Wei Shiyuan always felt that he was inferior to the Lin family. Some time ago, the second son of the Lin family was disabled because of Wei Baozhu, so by some strange combination of circumstances, he agreed to Wen Yuniang's proposal.
"Hasn't he thought about how embarrassing the second lady would be if this matter spread?"
