"Changquan, I..."
"I didn't expect my mother to do this either!"
Qi Heng was worried!
The first thing he did was to clarify the whole incident to Sheng Changquan and tell him what Princess Pingning had done, in order to prove his "innocence".
"Chang Quan, I really don't want this!"
"You have to believe me! I..."
"so what?"
Before Qi Heng could finish speaking, Sheng Changquan interrupted him impatiently!
Sheng Changquan kept a cold expression on his face and asked directly: "My young master, what is your conclusion after talking so much?"
"Do you want to prove to outsiders the family scandal of your Duke of Qi?"
Sheng Changquan's words were a bit unpleasant.
"I'm sorry, our Sheng family and I personally don't want to know about these things!"
"No, Chang Quan, you..."
Qi Heng opened his mouth to say something more.
but!
"And, young master, have you ever thought about it?"
Sheng Changquan stretched out his hand again to interrupt Qi Heng's words and asked directly: "When your family made such a decision, or even came directly to the door and opened your mouth to accept my sister as an adopted daughter, did you consider the feelings of my Sheng family? ?”
"Especially, how does my sister feel?"
"Ah!"
Sheng Changquan sneered!
"Or maybe I thought about it but didn't take it to heart?"
"You just think our Sheng family doesn't matter? But you, the Duke of Qi, can't help you?"
Sheng Changquan spoke very simply and spoke directly to Qi Heng.
However, because there was a little girl present, Sheng Changquan did not make his words too clear. He just summed it up directly: "So, young master, don't feel that you are wronged, or blame Ping for all this." On Princess Ning’s body!”
"In my opinion, you and Princess Ning are the same. No matter what you do, it represents the Duke of Qi's palace."
Perhaps, in the eyes of some people, Qi Heng has always been concerned about Minglan and has been working hard for it. It seems that he cannot be blamed for Princess Pingning's actions.
Even Princess Pingning's actions were impeccable from her point of view.
However, one thing has been overlooked, that is, Qi Heng and Princess Pingning are an inseparable whole. In other words, their mother and son can actually be regarded as one person.
In this case, it is not difficult to understand the anger in Sheng Changquan's heart.
After all, Qi Heng provoked trouble, and Princess Pingning suppressed it. Isn't this just a person's renegade?
Moreover, although Sheng Changquan had already anticipated the possibility of this happening, it was only a possibility after all!
In his heart, he still had some hopes for Qi Heng, feeling that he could convince Princess Pingning and that there was a slight possibility of success.
However, Qi Heng "unsurprisingly" disappointed Sheng Changquan in the end.
"so!"
"Young Master, you don't have to be like this!"
Sheng Changquan glanced at Qi Heng for the last time, but said nothing more!
"Young Master, that's all!"
"I hope you will never come to see my sister again in the future!"
"She is not you, but there is no such chance to start over!"
Sheng Changquan just turned around and walked directly towards the Sheng Mansion gate behind him, but did not look back at Qi Heng again.
Perhaps, this kind of behavior is also hinting at something, indicating that neither Sheng Changquan nor his sister will turn back.
Behind him, Qi Heng paused silently, but did not continue to chase Sheng Changquan. Under the dim light of Wanjia's lights, he just clenched his fists secretly and murmured in a low voice: "Chang Quan Quan, you can’t stop me!”
"I will never give up on my sixth sister!"
…
Shou'an Hall.
After Sheng Changquan met Qi Heng, he immediately returned home.
Among them, he first went back to his yard and gave all the pastries he brought back to Platycodon and Ziyuan for them to share. After that, Sheng Changquan did not stay in Zeyu Hall for a long time, but went directly into the old lady’s Shou’an Hall.
"Mom Fang!"
When Sheng Changquan just walked in from outside, he saw Fang's mother who looked anxious.
"Yo!"
"Brother Quan, you came just in time!"
Fang's mother walked forward quickly, grabbed Sheng Changquan, and said anxiously to him: "Brother Quan, go and see Miss Six!"
"Sister?"
Sheng Changquan raised his eyebrows!
"Mom Fang, what's wrong with sister?"
"Alas~"
Mother Fang sighed and said, "Brother Quan, you don't know!"
"After Princess Pingning left, Miss Six went back to her room, saying she was sleepy and wanted to rest!"
Fang's mother walked quickly in front of her head and continued: "Just rest, it's okay!"
"However, the sixth girl has been sleeping until now and has not gotten up. Not only that, the sixth girl has not even used the lunch and dinner meals, she just slept!"
Fang's mother really loves Minglan, so she is naturally very anxious at this time.
"This man, no matter how sad and sad he is, he can't ruin his body!"
"Brother Quan, please go in and take a look!"
"It's best to persuade Miss Six to cheer her up again!"
Although Minglan has clearly told the old lady that she will give up her relationship with Qi Heng, but no matter what, this incident is still a blow to the young girl Minglan!
After listening to Fang's mother's story, Sheng Changquan nodded immediately.
"Mom Fang, I know!"
"Don't worry, I will take care of sister's matter."
With that said, Sheng Changquan walked into Minglan's house with a frown under Fang's mother's worried eyes.
…
The Duke's Mansion of Qi.
After a long time, Qi Heng came back from the outside with a gloomy expression, taking the little girl who had been following him.
However, because he was walking back, it was already dark when he came back.
At the same time, when he returned to his mansion, Princess Pingning on the other side also received the news immediately.
"Princess, the young master has returned home!"
Mother Sang walked up to Princess Pingning's ear and whispered.
"Huh? Are you back?"
Princess Pingning raised her eyebrows, her expression seemed a little strange.
"By the way, Mother Sang, hurry up and call the little girl who followed Qi Heng out. I have something to ask her!"
At this time, Princess Pingning was a little distracted, feeling like she had a guilty conscience.
"Yes, princess!"
Mother Sang nodded and quickly walked out of the door, ready to call the maid over.
However, when Mama Sang walked out of the room, she sighed accidentally.
"Does the princess regret it?"
Mother Sang looked back at Princess Pingning who was sitting in the room with a strange look on her face.
However, Mother Sang didn't realize that not only Princess Pingning, but also her own face had the same expression?
In the determination, there is a hint of regret!
"Alas~"
Mother Sang lamented again, but said nothing. She just accelerated her pace and prepared to fulfill Princess Pingning's instructions.
…
On the other side, Qi Heng did not go to find his mother after returning to the Duke of Qi's mansion. In fact, he ignored anyone along the way and just walked toward his study.
When Qi Heng stopped, he had already arrived in front of his study room.
"Squeak!"
Qi Heng pushed open his study room and locked himself inside. With the help of a candle, he sat alone in front of his desk, feeling sad to himself.
"After what happened today, I'm afraid things between Sixth Sister and I will get even more difficult!"
Qi Heng sat on the chair and thought to himself.
Thinking about everything he had experienced today, especially the behavior of the Sheng family after his mother Princess Pingning revealed that she had adopted Ming Lan as her adopted daughter, Qi Heng felt despair in his heart.
Except for the little ones like Ru Lan and Mo Lan who had nothing to pay attention to, Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. Wang on the other side had quite a reaction.
Among them, Mrs. Sheng’s attitude is the most important!
Because Minglan was basically raised by her, her opinions were comparable to those of Minglan's brother Sheng Changquan, and even, in some ways, far exceeded them.
Therefore, if Qi Heng still wants to continue with Minglan, then he must resolve the knot in Mrs. Sheng's heart and convince her.
As for Mrs. Wang, the head mother of the Sheng family, she is actually much easier to handle.
From Qi Heng's point of view, although Mrs. Wang spoke the harshest words at that time and held a gun and a stick in her mouth, her position was actually the easiest to resolve.
Because Mrs. Wang was just angry because she felt that the Duke of Qi was slandering the Sheng family today. As long as Qi Heng could give Mrs. Wang a step forward, she would no longer be angry.
Qi Heng grabbed the brush on the table and prepared to write down these questions so that he could continue to think about them in the future.
"Uh-huh!"
When Qi Heng reached his pen into the inkstone on the side, he felt something was wrong.
"Huh?"
Qi Heng turned his head and looked a little unhappy.
"What's going on? Why don't you fix my ink?"
The maids were never allowed to enter Qi Heng's study, so things like polishing ink and tidying up books were not allowed to be done.
"By the way, why not?"
Qi Heng suddenly remembered that among the people around him, the one who had the most contact with Minglan was not for it!
So, as if he had thought of something, he put down the red sandalwood pen in his hand and prepared to go find Bu Wei and inquire about something from him.
"No!"
"No!"
Qi Heng reopened the door to his study and asked loudly outside.
"Not for..."
However, Qi Heng called for a long time but still could not hear Bu Wei's response.
"strangeness?"
Qi Heng was secretly surprised!
"In the past, when I couldn't call him like this, he should be here soon, right?"
"Why did he fail today?"
The more Qi Heng thought about it, the weirder he felt, so he simply took a step forward and prepared to go to Buwei's room to find him.
Because Buwei was Qi Heng's personal servant, his room was the wing of the courtyard, not far from the main house where Qi Heng was.
"No!"
Qi Heng pushed open the door of Buwei's room and said, "Buwei, you..."
"Huh? Who are you?"
At this time, there was no figure in the room. On the contrary, two honest-looking men appeared in front of Qi Heng.
Qi Heng didn't notice and frowned even more tightly.
"Why not?"
"Do you know this is Buwei's house?"
After looking at what the two men were holding, Qi Heng seemed even more unhappy.
Because what these two people were holding in their hands were obviously some personal belongings such as clothes and bedding.
"Who are you two? How dare you take something you don't want?"
"Don't you know the rules of the house?"
Princess Pingning was very strict in running her family, and she hated the behavior of her slaves. Qi Heng reminded her because he didn't want these two people to be punished by the government because of these things.
"Young...I've met your young father-in-law!"
Among the two people, the older man seemed to have recognized Qi Heng, so he immediately knelt down, as if he was very afraid of Qi Heng.
As for the other one, he acted a little unhappy, as if he had some objections to Qi Heng and wanted to fight him!
However, because of the old man's pull, the young man had to kneel down. But just by looking at his angry eyes, Qi Heng understood this man's hostility towards him.
"Who are you?"
Qi Heng asked one last time.
"Young Master, old man, I..."
"I... am Buwei's father!"
The old man kneeling on the ground seemed to be very sad, because the words coming out of his mouth were filled with tears.
"ah?"
Qi Heng was shocked!
So, he used the candlelight in the room to look around carefully, preparing to see the appearance of these two people.
Under the weak candlelight, Qi Heng really saw the appearance of these two people. Apart from their dark skin and some differences, the corners of their mouths and eyes were extremely similar.
The most important thing is that Qi Heng has actually seen this old man before.
"You... aren't you Uncle Wang?"
After Qi Heng recognized the identities of these two people, he immediately helped them up and said, "Uncle Wang, Brother Wang, why are you here?"
"Are you here to see me?"
In fact, Buwei was a servant bought from outside by the Duke of Qi in the early years. His real name was Wang Dong, so naturally his elder brother and father were also named Wang. Qi Heng looked at Buwei's face, so he called him that in private. My father is Uncle Wang.
In fact, in today's etiquette-oriented era, a title like Qi Heng is actually not appropriate.
After all, one is the prince of the country and the other is a poor man from the countryside. The two have different classes and statuses. Qi Heng can treat these two people like this, which is considered a kindness on his part.
With Qi Heng's help, Old Man Wang stood up obediently, regardless of the fact that Brother Wang on the other side was full of opinions about Qi Heng. His eyes always looked at him angrily, as if he thought Qi Heng was going to take action. .
"That's right. I don't know where he went."
Qi Heng didn't care much about his eldest brother Buwei, but just comforted Old Man Wang: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, maybe Buwei will be back soon!"
"snort!"
Qi Heng had just finished speaking when Buwei's eldest brother roared angrily: "My family has been beaten to death by yours, Buwei!"
"Where can I come back?"
"Shut up!"
"What?"
The voices of Old Man Wang and Qi Heng sounded at the same time!
