After listening to Qu Miaoling's words, Mrs. An was still a little unconvinced, "I don't care, these are all dowries for you, they can't be missing at all, it's a big deal, when the time comes, it will be regarded as an addition to your makeup from our Hou Mansion, and it will not be included in the official dowry." ”

Qu Miaoling was amused by her aunt's vexatious teasing.

It's a sweet torture to help her save money, but she has to spend money on herself.

What else can Qu Miaoling do, of course, he accepts it with peace of mind.

Qu Miaoling looked up and nodded heavily, "Well, it's still my aunt who is the best for Miaoling." ”

Mrs. An was so happy that she touched Qu Miaoling's head like a kitten, "It's good to know that your aunt is good to you, and if you get married in the future, don't come to see your aunt and refuse to look at it." ”

"Auntie, how could it be, even if Miao Ling didn't want a husband, she wouldn't come to the Hou Mansion."

"You kid, what are you talking about, how can you even not want your husband?"

Mrs. An touched Qu Miaoling's back and reprimanded softly.

For a woman's family, if she says such a thing, if her husband sees it, she is afraid that she will be divorced.

"Oh aunt, don't be angry, I'm just making an analogy."

"You can't fight like that, you know?"

"Got it." Qu Miaoling replied pitifully.

But in her heart, she thought that since it was her aunt's kindness, she couldn't waste it, and she would send it back when the second brother married the princess in the future.

That's it.

After Qu Miaoling made up her mind not to want this dowry, she talked to her aunt with peace of mind.

"What is the teacher squatting on, get up quickly, beware of the root of the disease falling on your legs."

Qu Miaoling couldn't cry or laugh, she just squatted for a short while, and before half a cup of tea, where would she fall into the root of the disease?

However, she also knew that Mrs. An cared about herself, so she didn't say anything, just stood up according to Mrs. An's strength and sat aside.

"Miao Ling, there is another matter, your grandfather sent a message, saying that he will also enter Beijing this year."

"Really?" Qu Miaoling stood up instantly, with a look of surprise on her face.

"Of course." Mrs. An looked at Qu Miaoling with a smile, and couldn't help but think in her heart that her father might have been away from the capital for a long time, and she didn't know how long she could stay when she came back this time.

After staying in the Jingkang Hou Mansion until the evening, Qu Miaoling returned to the Wude Hou Mansion.

She didn't sleep all night at the thought that her grandfather was coming back, but when she got up the next morning under the gentle service, she didn't feel the same thing in her body, but there was some blackness under her eyes.

When she was gently applying makeup, she said aggressively: "Miss, you can't stay up all night any longer, look at your white skin, which has turned blue." ’

"What, your young lady has become ugly? Are you going to find another master? Qingrou immediately put down the lipstick in her hand, and almost stuck her waist and said: "Miss, what nonsense are you talking about, Qingrou only thinks that Miss is a master in this life." ”

Seeing that Qingrou was teased and angry by herself, Qu Miaoling said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, it's my mistake, Sister Qingrou don't get angry, okay?" ”

"It's clear that the age of the family is younger than the young lady."

Gently tugging your fingers.

"Okay, Sister Gentle."

Qingrou's heart was relieved, and she seriously wiped Qu Miaoling's lipstick and combed her hair.

"Miss, do you like today's makeup?"

"I like it, but—if I don't like it, can I replace you?"

"Miss!" The soft voice was several degrees louder.

Qu Miaoling pursed her mouth and smiled, with a smile in her eyes.

Gently sulking for a while, I felt that something was wrong with my master today, too lively.

However, she thought about it, this is not bad, there is nothing wrong with her own young lady, but she is too mature and sensible, not like a talented girl.

Qingrou was also happy in her heart, and she couldn't help but show it on her face, and when she served her master, she couldn't help but be more attentive.

"Your Highness, our people buried in His Royal Highness the Second Prince reported that His Royal Highness the Second Prince has been frequently going to Huamanlou recently and looking for many prostitutes."

Originally, Liu Guard didn't want to talk about this kind of pickled thing, but the second prince's behavior was too weird, and he had to mention it.

"Your Highness, that person also spread the word that the second prince took those prostitutes to the palace, and instead of honoring them, he sent them away."

Qu Miaoling's eyes flashed, "But a?" ”

Guard Liu nodded.

"Your Highness, the people of the second prince are still searching in the green buildings everywhere, as if they are looking for someone."

"Alright, you go down, I see."

After Liu Guard's departure, Qu Miaoling sat on the Taishi's chair and recalled seriously.

At the latest at the end of this year, Situ Huaibo will be canonized as the crown prince, and after sitting in the position of the prince, Situ Huaibo killed and attracted talents, and also presented the emperor with a woman who thought that she was both beautiful and artistic.

This woman is really powerful.

It is worthy of being born in the country of Yelang.

Qu Miaoling is also a woman, and they can't help but admire her.

How the hell did she do it?

You know, as the emperor is the king of a country, what kind of deception of frost and snow has not been seen, this woman actually made the emperor's heart sprout?

Qu Miaoling has always been puzzled, but after seeing the woman's appearance, she understood a little, the woman was very similar to her mother-in-law, the county lord of Huiling, and she was even more beautiful than the county lord of Huiling.

It's no wonder that he misses her.

Qu Miaoling thought about the current time again, and estimated that the woman with the best looks in the country, Situ Huaibo had not yet found it, and she still had a chance.

"Gentle, you go and tell the one in Huamanlou to search for a woman who looks like me and is more beautiful than me in the major green buildings, and you must find her before the second prince."

Gently lead the way.

The card received the news, and the order immediately passed on to her.

All her informants took action.

Knowing the movements over there, Qu Miaoling asked people to continue to pay attention to Huaiwangfu, no matter what movement there was, they had to tell the truth.

One by one, the orders were passed down, Qu Miaoling sat on the Taishi chair, his eyes were inexplicable, now Situ Huaibo's small movements continued, and the emperor also turned a blind eye, if Situ Huaibo coaxed the emperor to give him the position of the crown prince before Situ Huaibo returned to the capital, then even if Situ Huaibo came back from the border pass, he made great military achievements, and there was no way to go against the sky.

Once the crown prince is canonized, it will be difficult to change again, unless the emperor personally orders the deposition, but the deposition of the prince will shake the foundation of the country, not only the ministers will be panicked, but even the people of the Daling Dynasty will be suspicious, and it will be unprofitable for Anbang Sheji.

The emperor would never do it unless he had to.

Before Situ Huaibo was canonized as the crown prince, she had to take action, and this woman who looked so much like her mother was only the first step.

I don't know if the woman was in exile in the capital at this time.

Qu Miaoling looked at the sky and pondered.

And soon, Duanwang and his cousins are also coming back, and there are some things that she will do without going can be handed over to them, and they can easily do it with their humble status.

Qu Miaoling's eyes flickered a few times, and then he got up from the Taishi chair, "Gentle, you go to the Jingkang Marquis Mansion and ask when your cousins will be able to arrive in the capital, and when your grandfather will come back." ”

When you finish your work with gentleness, you are instructed to go out.

But she didn't have the slightest complaint in her heart, Miss believed in her, and in this huge Hou Mansion, Miss could believe and have no doubt that she was the only one.

When I thought that I was the special one for the young lady, I was happy in my heart.

But after returning from the Hou Mansion gently, he brought back a piece of news that shocked Qu Miaoling, Situ Huai, he didn't plan to come back.

"Gentle, are you sure that's what your aunt said?"

After listening to it gently, she was also very anxious, and came back in a hurry.

"Miss, it's absolutely true, I asked softly several times, that's what my aunt said."

"Miss!" Softly shouted suddenly.

Qu Miaoling was in a trance, and fell back to the Taishi chair, but fortunately, it was wrapped with a fine cushion, and she was not injured.

But it's not okay to be gentle or anxious.

"Miss, Your Highness, he must have his own reasons for doing this, don't worry."

"How could I not be in a hurry." Qu Miaoling clenched his fist with one hand and slammed it on the table.

The solid wood table was knocked to the sound of "ping-pong".

She turned back to her desk, picked up the brush, sketched it, and a letter was written.

Now, she can't care about avoiding suspicion, this letter must be handed over to Situ Huaiju, he must not stay at the border, he must come back.

As for recovering the territory, you can leave it to your grandfather and cousins.

They are also brave and good at fighting, and they will not be worse than him personally fighting.

If Situ Huaizhu still stays at the border, then he really has no chance to compete at all.

Situ Huai, he must come back.

A gleam flashed in Qu Miaoling's eyes.

But the tricky thing is that Situ Huaiju doesn't necessarily listen to herself, so she has to amplify her tricks.

So she continued to put pen to paper, and she wrote in her heart that she had a way to divorce Situ Huaibo and marry him, but he had to come back.

When he left the capital and invited himself to the battlefield, a large reason was because he was given a marriage to Situ Huaibo, he was sad and desperate, and made this decision wrongly.

After sealing the letter of good birth, she sent it to the Jingkang Hou Mansion, and asked her aunt to hand it over to her cousin, who then transferred it to Situ Huaiju.

Aunt came soon after the news, saying that the letter had been secretly sent, and it was brought over by a credible person, so that Qu Miaoling did not have to worry.

But how can Qu Miaoling not be worried?

Situ Huaizhu left resolutely at that time, and he didn't even say goodbye to himself, and in this year's time, except for the letter sent to him by Xin Jiaxuan, he didn't take the initiative to send one.

In a year, more than 300 days and nights, Situ Huaizhu has no other ideas, whether he likes other women, and whether he still has feelings for himself.

This is all Qu Miaoling is not sure of, if she is self-inflicted, what should she do?

Rush to the border to question him?

Qu Miaoling's face couldn't help but show a wry smile.

Hopefully, he hasn't changed his mind.

Qu Miaoling sighed.

Another half a month passed.

Qu Miaoling waited anxiously for news at home, but she found nothing, and she also asked people to ask countless times from the Jingkang Hou Mansion, and she also went countless times, but there was no news from there.

Qu Miaoling was desperate, she was depressed these days, and she couldn't worry softly, but she didn't know what was wrong with her own young lady, so she could only scratch her heart and watch her face become more and more pale, unable to eat every day, and even her face had lost weight several times, and it tended to be in the shape of a goose egg face.

"Miss, you can eat a little, how can you not eat?" Brought lunch from the kitchen, and said softly, Qu Miaoling only ate half a bowl of porridge, and as for the rest, he didn't eat it.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince sent a message to invite you to gather in Xiangmanlou."

Qu Miaoling hesitated in his heart, he was looking for himself?

But immediately, her dim eyes lit up, could it be Situ Huai's letter?

She rekindled her hope and rushed to Xiangmanlou in high spirits.

Even if she was told to finish eating and go again, she didn't listen.

Before coming to Xiangmanlou, as soon as she entered, she was invited by the shopkeeper to go upstairs to the private room.

As soon as Xiao Er'er pushed the door open, the sentence "You please" just fell, and Qu Miaoling's eyes widened.

Sitting opposite Situ Huaiyong, who is not Situ Huaiyong?

Qu Miaoling was stunned, and even forgot to enter the door.

Situ Huaiyong saw Qu Miaoling, but he passed by her side, didn't say a word, left space for the two of them, and thoughtfully closed the door.

Qu Miaoling looked at the person in front of him who had not seen him for a long time, dusty and ragged, probably because of the long journey, his face was still a little dirty.

As she expected, it was dark and thin, but the person was a lot stronger, and even the whole person's face was more cold.

"Determination."

In the past, she always called him by name, but today, she just wants to call him by name.
