Qi Yu was only sixteen this year, but he gave birth to a child with no name or status. Princess Ning really didn't even want to say that the eldest son of a concubine was just a son of a maid who helped the palace raise horses. She felt that the word "concubine" was insulting. .
The most important thing is that this cheap maid dared to secretly give birth to the child without telling her in October, which shows her deep scheming.
She would definitely not allow such a person to be around her son. As for her grandson? In the future, Yu'er will marry a wife and take concubines. If she doesn't have any grandchildren, why would she let a bitch who raises horses take the place of the eldest son?
Not even common people!
Qi Yu then said: "It's not impossible to stay, just put it in my brother's name."
Princess Ning's face changed: "You are crazy, how dare you think like this!"
Qi Yu said with an indifferent expression: "Anyway, my eldest brother is not a womanizer. First, he has a leader in his name. From now on, even if we don't get married, it will be fine."
"You think your brother is a soft persimmon who can be pinched by you at will." Princess Ning's tone had no trace of joy or anger, as if she was talking about things that happen to ordinary people.
Qi Yu said with a smile: "Isn't he my brother? You often say that he is my brother. He should protect me, let me go, and don't fight with me."
Princess Ning stiffened slightly and pursed her bright red lips.
Qi Yu looked at it, leaned over, and said coquettishly: "What's wrong with you, concubine? Could it be that the child made a mistake?"
"You're right, he shouldn't fight with you, including the position of the heir apparent, which can only be yours." Princess Ning hugged him into her arms, and repeated with certainty and paranoia: "This Everything can only be yours."
Qi Yu's eyes flickered and he said with a smile, "I know my mother-in-law loves me."
As for his grandmother, sooner or later she would die in front of his mother-in-law and him. No matter how much she helped Qi Qian, there would be nothing she could do.
…
Qi Qian just handed over the prescription and told Ying Bei to go to Ningzhou Mansion to get the medicinal materials immediately. He sat in the study and took a sip of tea when Fire Wolf came in to report.
"Master, there is news from Beijing." The first thing Huo Lang presented was a secret letter from the palace.
Qi Qian took it, opened it, frowned, and said, "Check the Qin family in Li City?"
Fire Wolf said: "This is the family of Qin Yuanshan, the former minister of Guanglu Temple. In July, because of a sacrificial ceremony that went wrong, the Holy Master deprived him of his position and confiscated his family. Except for men under the age of twelve, they were all exiled to the northwest, and their family members were repatriated to Licheng. My hometown. It’s a coincidence, it seems that I entered Li City at about the same time as us.”
"Aren't you still worried after your house was ransacked?"
Huolang said: "I heard that Concubine Meng, who is favored in the palace, has always been at odds with the Qin family. Now that Concubine Meng has gained a little prince, the Holy One is even more happy. It is not an exaggeration to say that Concubine Meng is completely obedient to her."
He said it in a cryptic way, but Qi Qian understood the meaning behind it, which was that Concubine Meng was cheating on her and wanted to destroy the Qin family.
"The Meng family is so arrogant and doesn't know how to hold back on everything. Sooner or later, bad things will happen." Qi Qian said in a tone of complete disdain for the Meng family: "Look back and see if the Qin family has done anything out of the ordinary."
"yes."
Qi Qian didn't know what flashed through his mind, and asked: "Are all the men in the Qin family over the age of twelve exiled?"
"Yes."
"What a coincidence, they both have the surname Qin." Qi Qian felt a little weird, but the next moment, his attention was diverted.
"Master, here is the letter from the royal palace's secret line."
Qi Qian's heart moved, he took it and opened it, reading it at a glance, with a look of disgust on his face, and said, "He doesn't know how to restrain himself."
Before getting married, he gave birth to an illegitimate child. I wonder how his picky mother and concubine would handle it.
