The Duchess of Qi was stunned for a moment, and did not immediately react to who she was talking about.

"The fourth lady of Qufu is the cousin of the second sister, and naturally she is also my cousin, I wonder if you can let me meet the fourth miss of Qu? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worried about Miss Qu Si's time in Qu Shilang's Mansion...... Let me ask. Ji Youran explained with a smile.

"Miss Qu Si is right outside the door." Liu Jingyu had recovered at this time, replied softly, and stood up, "I'll go and invite her in." ”

"No need, I also want to go out for a walk, I just happen to have something I want to ask my cousin in private, and I hope that the Duchess of Guo and Jingyu County Jun can make it convenient."

Ji stood up leisurely.

Seeing how she acted, of course the Duchess of Qi Guo would not stop her, watching her walk out slowly with a few palace maids, and then her eyes fell on her granddaughter's face.

Liu Jingyu sensed that the Duchess of Qi Guo was looking at her, and smiled softly at her, with a natural expression, which made the Duchess of Qi feel a lot more relieved, it seemed that she was too worried, her granddaughter listened to her daughter in everything, her daughter thought badly, her granddaughter should not think bad, and her granddaughter felt better than her daughter on weekdays.

As for this family affair of the Prince's Mansion, the Duchess of Qi Guo is not optimistic at all, this Concubine Ji is not easy to mess with at first glance, but if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really values her and wants her to give birth to an heir and inherit the name of the crown princess, this matter is even more unusual.

Under the corridor, Qu Moying and several young ladies of the family were standing in an orderly manner, and when they heard a sound at the door, everyone looked up and saw Ji Youran appearing at the curtain with a few people.

Almost everyone knew each other, and they bowed sideways together.

Ji Youran came over with a smile, "A few young ladies are polite, I'm here to find my cousin." ”

The so-called cousin, everyone didn't know who she was talking about for a while, so they looked left and right.

"Cousin Qu, can you walk with me?" Ji Youran smiled and raised his eyes to look at Qu Moying, Qu Moying nodded silently and followed behind Ji Youran.

After walking a few steps, turning out of the garden, and picking a path at random, Ji Youran's footsteps were slow, waiting for Qu Moying to step forward.

Knowing that she had something to say, Qu Moying slowed down at her feet, followed her slowly, and was not in a hurry to step forward.

Ji Youran saw that she was still following her, her steps were very slow, and a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, but then her face calmed down and stopped, "Cousin, I have something to tell you." ”

"What?" Qu Moying stepped forward and asked.

"I want to talk about Aunt Xiang." Ji Youran said with a straight face.

"What's the matter with Aunt Xiang? Besides, shouldn't this kind of thing go directly to Aunt Xiang? ...... with me It doesn't matter much, right? Qu Moying raised his eyes, and the eyes under the veil were light and quiet.

"Aunt Xiang is the uncle's concubine, but it's just a concubine, now the second brother is recorded in the name of the eldest aunt, but the uncle is gone, the second brother is not small, Aunt Xiang is a little inappropriate to stay in the house again, when the aunt died in the past, Aunt Xiang worshiped the Buddha wholeheartedly, and now the uncle is gone, Aunt Xiang ......"

Ji Youran hesitated when he said this, it seemed a little difficult to speak, and his gaze at Qu Moying was very vague.

How could Qu Moying not understand the meaning of her words, but the look on her face was still indifferent: "Concubine Niangniang, what's wrong?" ”

"It's not that there's anything wrong, it's just that the big house is now Aunt Xiang and the second brother, and the second brother is not small, and it is not recorded in Aunt Xiang's name, besides, it is always not good to let an aunt suppress the head of the son, and it will be difficult for the second brother to marry a good family in the future." Ji Youran said more and more tactfully.

As for the other two aunts, there is no need to mention them here in Ji Youran.

"Concubine Niangniang, I still don't understand." Qu Moying shook his head ignorantly.

Seeing Qu Moying's dazed appearance, Ji Youran almost rushed up in anger, and pressed hard before pressing down, the prince's meaning made her not to offend Qu Moying, and she was even bent on making her friends with Qu Moying, if it wasn't for this layer, she would have wanted to reprimand Qu Moying and suppress Qu Moying.

"Aunt Xiang had better send her to the nunnery for cultivation, after all, she is just a concubine aunt, the uncle is gone, she has no son and half a daughter left, and the second brother is still so young, and he will get married when he grows up, if he knows that the elders above him have an aunt in charge, this family affair will definitely not be good, and it is not suitable to stay in the house after all."

Ji Youran said with a calm face, her eyes were a little cold, she wanted to see what this Miss Qu Si meant, if she really stretched out her hand, even if she reprimanded her, it would be a reason.

"Concubine Niangniang, you shouldn't talk to me about this, it's a matter of Ling Anbo's Mansion." Qu Moying looked surprised and asked softly.

Seeing that she had no objection, Ji Youran's face looked a little better: "Aunt Xiang seems to be very good to her cousin, she went to the yamen to complain before, and she still sat in her cousin's carriage, and she still listened to her cousin's words a little, can you trouble your cousin to persuade Aunt Xiang." ”

"I'm going to persuade Aunt Xiang? Side concubine Niangniang, this is not appropriate. Qu Moying opened her mouth to refuse, as if she didn't hear the meaning of Ji Youran's words.

Ji Youran thought about Qu Moying's reactions, but she just didn't expect her to refuse, according to the previous things, Qu Moying should be able to stretch out her hand, and I don't know why Qu Moying cares so much about Ji Hanyue, and cares about taking care of the affairs of Ling Anbo's Mansion, Ji Youran calmed down and thought about it, and didn't understand the reason for this.

Even though Ji Hanyue took care of Qu Moying, the two of them had actually only met each other a few times, so there was such a deep feeling, what was Qu Moying trying to do?

Ji Youran's first feeling was that the crown prince Pei Luoan, she plotted Pei Luoan herself, and she also suspected that Qu Moying was the same as herself, and wanted to get close to Pei Luoan in the name of Ji Hanyue, but then she felt that it didn't seem to be!

"Cousin......" Ji said leisurely.

"The side concubine doesn't have to be called that! The affairs of Ling Anbo's Mansion have nothing to do with me, what does the side concubine want to do, and you don't have to tell me, I am just a daughter of the Shilang Mansion, although I was related to Ling Anbo Mansion before, but now my cousin and cousin are gone, and this so-called kinship does not exist. ”

Qu Moying said with a straight face, he didn't plan to get used to Ji Youran, since he was destined to be an enemy, it was better to draw a line as soon as possible!

He took a step back and bowed respectfully to Ji Youran, "Concubine Niangniang, my grandmother sent someone to call me over, since Concubine Niangniang is fine, I want to go to see my grandmother first." ”

This is really a merciless slap in her face, Ji Youran was annoyed, but she couldn't get angry, the most important thing for her to come to the Qi Mansion today was Liu Jingyu.

has been in the Prince's Mansion for so long, how can she have no henchmen by her side, and she has faintly found out that Liu Shangshufu seems to be marrying the Prince's Mansion, and Liu Jingyu is the candidate favored by the queen's mother.

When she only knew the news, Ji Youran almost vomited blood angrily, she was lucky, and in the end she was still a side concubine, so what was her previous efforts.

How did the prince promise her, it was good, at that time, the two of them were in love, and the prince repeatedly promised that he would help her to the position of concubine in the future, but who is Liu Jingyu now, why did she suddenly appear, isn't she going to marry King Jing?

Now that you see the benefits of marrying the crown prince, you want to marry the prince again?

How could Ji Youran let the fruits of his calculations fall into the hands of Liu Jingyu, so he took the initiative to come to the door today to congratulate the birthday of the Duke of Qiguo.

Of course, the most important thing is to beat the Duchess of Qi and Liu Jingyu, she doesn't believe that Liu Jingyu can't hear it, if Liu Jingyu dares to really marry into the prince's mansion, she will dare to fight her.

Even Ji Hanyue is not her opponent, and Liu Jingyu is nothing.

It's obviously a gift, it's really shocking, this is Ji Youran's goal today, but when he heard that Qu Moying was also there, he deliberately wanted to find Qu Moying.

Unexpectedly, Qu Moying rejected her words without saying a word, how could Ji Youran not be angry, his eyes were cold and he watched Qu Moying leave, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

The fingertips pinched into the flesh tightly, since Ji Hanyue is dead, everything left behind is hers, whether it is Ji Hanyue's status or everything in Ji Mansion, Liu Jingyu and Qu Moying want to take it, and it doesn't depend on whether they have the ability to do it.

"Miss, this Concubine Ji is still looking at us from behind, her eyes are very cold, what do you say This Concubine Ji is a good one, because she took care of the East Palace where the princess entered, slave and maid look, maybe the princess was angry with her, or framed to death." Yudong took advantage of the turn to glance back, and saw that Ji Youran was still standing in place, his head leaned in front of Qu Moying, and said in a low voice.

The corners of Qu Moying's lips hooked, and his smile was cold with a gloomy anger, and he didn't answer.

Who else in the world knows the truth better than she does?

They just came out not far away, just in front of the gate of the previous courtyard, back to the courtyard, a girl ring saw her, had already reported in, and when she came, Ya Huan raised the curtain and invited her in.

Qu Moying went in and saw that the previous young lady was all in the flower hall, everyone was sitting together talking, and her grandmother was also there, hearing the sound of her entering the door, everyone turned to her, and there were a few who hadn't looked at her before, and they couldn't help but look at her a few more times at this time.

Many people only then remembered that this Miss Qu Si is not only the identity of the maid's daughter, but also the cousin of the crown princess, I heard that after the two daughters of the Yue family married into Beijing together, the relationship was very close, but later something happened to the Xiao Yue family, leaving only an orphan girl, and was sent to Zhuangzi, and the two families faded, but I heard that the princess still took good care of this cousin.

Now Concubine Ji also values her?

The prince's status is noble, even if he is a side concubine in the mansion, there are infinite possibilities in the future, and in the entire prince's mansion, I heard that this side concubine Ji is in charge.

That's even more incredible.

"Where's Concubine Ji?" The Duchess of Qi looked at Qu Moying a few times quietly, and when she saw that she had saluted and said goodbye, she asked.

"Duchess of Qi Guo, our mother said that she was unwell and wanted to go back first, so she didn't come to say goodbye!" A maid hurried over to report it.

It's almost rude to say this, it's okay to go out just now, and now you can't even come over to say goodbye?

The ladies sitting looked at each other, and couldn't help but think a lot, does this mean that the prince is dissatisfied with the Duke of Qi, or something else?

Duchess Qi Guo's face was gloomy, this Concubine Ji was really presumptuous, with her position, how could she be so excessive in her own house, even if she was the queen's mother, she was polite when she saw herself.

"Come on......" Duchess Qi couldn't suppress her anger, although she couldn't do anything with this side concubine, she could embarrass this side concubine.

"Grandmother, I'll send Concubine Ji off." Liu Jingyu stood up and said with a smile, the timing was just right!

The Duchess of Qi calmed down, and finally nodded, Liu Jingyu turned around generously, and went out with the maid ring, but after going out, she saw a figure in the shadow outside the courtyard gate, and Liu frowned.
