Yuan Qiongyu hated it so much, but on the face, she still pretended to chat with Concubine Ning enthusiastically, and if she didn't have a match, she could continue.

And Qu Miaoling heard Rui Guifei's words, but she sneered in her heart.

This woman is really thoughtful, and she can say such involuntary words.

obviously doesn't look down on her, but he still praises her, there must be a reason for it.

Sure enough, as soon as Concubine Rui's words fell, the emperor said: "Miao Ling, I heard that you were attacked in Ganzhou, are you okay?" ”

"Thank you Uncle Huang for your concern, Miao Ling is fine, it's just that those gangsters ended miserably."

The emperor waved his hand, "It's just a group of subordinates, it's nothing, if they are still alive, I have to punish them nine clans!" ”

It turned out that Qu Miaoling secretly killed them in Ganzhou, or did he protect their families?

Everyone couldn't help but think.

After the emperor reminded them like this, they understood, why didn't Qu Miaoling help them by executing them?

So, for a while, everyone's gaze at Qu Miaoling was no longer scrutinizing, but faintly carrying some kindness.

From the beginning to the present, the emperor has not spoken except for chatting with the queen mother and the queen, but this song Miaoling has won the first place.

Even Yuan Qiongyu, who caused the emperor to smile with satisfaction, did not have this honor.

It can be seen how important Qu Miaoling's position in the emperor's heart is, and everyone's careful thinking began to calculate again.

And on the prince's seat, it was not only Situ Huaizhu who stared at Qu Miaoling who didn't move, but Situ Huaibo beside him also stared at her tightly, and he didn't relax for a moment.

It seems that Yuan Qiongyu, who performed on stage just now, is worthless, and in his eyes, he can only tolerate her.

But thinking that his purpose today is to make friends with General Yuan, at least, he can't let him have a relationship with him, so he must win Yuan Qiongyu's favor.

And, if possible, that Wen Qingqian, he will also be included in the house.

With these two boosts, it will definitely give him a little more security when competing for a big position.

With this intention in his heart, his eyes staring at Qu Miaoling became more and more intense.

The show was almost performed, and the emperor and the people were also a little tired.

The next thing is free activities, they can walk around the imperial garden at will, Qu Miaoling stood up, not wanting to talk to the hypocritical Rui Guifei anymore, she excused herself to leave, and also avoided Situ Huaiyong.

Staring at Qu Miaoling's back, Situ Huaiyong couldn't help but hook his lips, "If this woman wants to seduce his Third Emperor Brother, it depends on whether he agrees or not!" ”

Qu Miaoling left the two of them, and walked in the direction of Mrs. An, several cousins also came today, seeing Qu Miaoling coming, Mrs. An said: "Miaoling, I think today's birthday banquet is a gimmick, but the blind date is real!" ”

Thinking about this level, Mrs. An was even more worried about Qu Miaoling's future.

"Miao Ling, have you ever thought about what you would do if the husband who the Wudehou Mansion gave you a bad look at?"

"Auntie, don't worry, I have my own way."

Mrs. An was anxious, "What can you do with a girl's family, if not, choose a cousin to marry, you grew up with them since childhood, and you have a deep relationship, that's not to say, and with me and your uncle, they don't dare to bully you!" ”

Seeing that Mrs. An had the idea of marrying herself to her cousin, Qu Miaoling couldn't cry or laugh.

"Auntie, I really don't need to, I have my own way."

Seeing Qu Miaoling's resolute attitude, Mrs. An couldn't say anything more, but there was some regret in her expression.

The children raised by their own hands grow up and have their own ideas.

Mrs. Ann tried to comfort herself, as she had been since ancient times, and that she should not be nosy.

Qu Miaoling saw that her aunt's expression was unhappy, so she didn't say anything.

On the one hand, she really has no interest in the four cousins at all, she has only the feelings of her sister for her brother, and if she has more, it will be gone.

On the other hand, she clearly knew that she had some thoughts about Situ Huai, or she always thought that she would never have the relationship between men and women.

She didn't know if she and Situ Huaizhu would be able to go to the end, and she didn't know if she and him would evolve into Situ Huaibo in the end.

But at least for now, she is sure that Situ Huai and herself are two-way liking, not wishful thinking, let alone who is taking advantage of whom.

"Miao Ling, so far, I can only tell you one thing, don't have anything to do with the royal family, understand?"

Qu Miaoling nodded on her face, but she didn't think so in her heart. Not to mention that she herself was born in the royal family, the man she likes is a member of the royal family, and he is a prince, and the people she wants to take revenge on are also the royal family.

Her relationship with the royal family in this life is still messy.

She didn't feel uncomfortable, after all, she chose her own path.

"Miao Ling, I have thought about your mother's matter, otherwise we should not track it down, I worked with your grandfather back then, but I didn't find it out, you rashly investigated, in case you get caught in it, how can I explain to your mother?"

Mrs. Ann said bitterly that this was the result of her careful consideration.

Moreover, now she sees that Qu Miaoling is too obsessed with this matter, and if she falls into it, it will be difficult to get out again.

Moreover, in a place like the palace, everyone is a blood-sucking ghost, and they are not easy to deal with.

Qu Miaoling is young, where is their opponent?

Thinking of this, Mrs. An was even more worried.

"Auntie, no matter what happens to my mother's family, I will definitely investigate it, you don't need to persuade me, I have made up my mind, and I will not change it."

Qu Miaoling is so determined, what else can Mrs. An say?

She sighed, then changed the subject: "Then aside from your mother's affairs, your own affairs should also be put on the agenda, even if you don't like your cousin, you should see what you like as soon as possible." ”

"Auntie, I have a knot in my heart, in this life, I may not get married."

Qu Miaoling said aggressively.

"Why? You are a girl's family, you have to get married after all! ”

Qu Miaoling shook her head, "Auntie, I have my own plans for marriage, and besides, I have found some clues about my mother's matter, and I believe that I will find out the results immediately." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. An naturally hurriedly asked.

"What clues?"

After so many years, this matter has always been a knot in her heart, and she can't untie it or let it go.

She was very painful, and Qu Miaoling's investigation, although she was worried, it was undeniable that her conscience was comforted.

At least, her sister didn't die in vain.

"Miao Ling, let's talk about it!"

"That's right, I learned from the old lady that when my mother fell ill, she went to ask for it, and the emperor was also worried, so he sent a palace doctor."

Mrs. An thought secretly, and suddenly, she said, "I remember, it seems that there was indeed a royal doctor from the palace at that time, but-"

"But what?" Qu Miaoling hurriedly asked.

"Hey, it's been so long, and my aunt doesn't want to hide it from you, your mother was beautiful and had a top family background, I don't know how many famous sons rushed to marry, at that time, the emperor was only a prince, and he was interested in your mother Huiling County Lord, but ......"

"My mother chose Wu Dehou in the end?"

Mrs. Ann was silent.

"Auntie, I've always wanted to ask you, why?"

"This-hey, I'll tell you, at that time, in fact, your mother was also interested in the emperor, but he was already the crown prince at that time, and he was destined to be the emperor in the future, your mother didn't want to compete with the three palaces and six courts for favor, so she resolutely married Wu Dehou."

Mrs. An was silent for a while, and then said: "Wu Dehou should also have intentions for your mother, otherwise he would not have agreed to respect your mother as a guest, let alone agree to marry her alone." ”

Before the Wen family entered the mansion, Wudehou did only have one person as the county lord of Huiling, and there was only one housewife in the huge Hou Mansion.

At that time, it was shameful, a big man, and a powerful man, a marquis, didn't even have a concubine, and it didn't seem like a word, but Wu Dehou just agreed, and he lived like this for several years.

"Miao Ling, you haven't said yet, who did your mother's business?" Mrs. Ann pursued relentlessly.

Qu Miaoling groaned slightly, and then said: "Actually, I am just investigating and dealing with some clues, and I don't know who it is. ’

In fact, she vaguely guessed that the mastermind behind the scenes was either the queen or the emperor, or rather, these two joined forces.

I don't know.

Qu Miaoling knew that Mrs. An's relationship with her mother and the emperor and empress was okay, if she said it at this time, I was afraid that it would bring danger to Mrs. An and even the entire Jingkang Hou Mansion.

So now, she can only hide it, and let her know it when the truth is revealed.

was fooled by Qu Miaoling's casual two words, and Mrs. An also knew that Qu Miaoling had something to hide from her, but she also knew that if Qu Miaoling didn't want to say it, no one could force her.

After talking to her aunt for a while, Qu Miaoling left by herself, and she was going to play later, but she didn't want to go up.

Originally, she didn't sign up either.

However, when the person in charge told her that it would be her in a few more shows, she was stunned for a moment.

She asked the person in charge, but the man said bluntly that only one maid had signed up.

Qu Miaoling secretly had a plan in her heart, Yuan Qiongyu, who had a quarrel with her just now, was very suspicious, and with her identity, it was very easy to find Neiying to help her in the palace.

Thinking like this, Qu Miaoling also determined a few points.

She walked towards the center of the Imperial Garden, but was stopped by an oncoming man.

This man looked at him, and combined with the memories of her two lifetimes, Qu Miaoling didn't recognize it.

"What are you doing?" Qu Miaoling immediately said vigilantly.

"What am I doing? Qu Miaoling, you are a woman with a heart like a femme fatale, and you are not happy to find my sister, I think you are tired of life! The man's expression gradually became fierce, but Qu Miaoling caught the word "sister".

Younger sister?

Whose sister?

And who is his sister?
