Upon transmigration, modern girl Yun Qiao directly became a pitiful orphan in ancient times, fostered at her aunt's...
Chapter 73 Aunt Qiao shows off her power
After hearing Gu Heng's words, Yun Qiao nodded.
It didn't work at all for her to discuss psychological issues with an ancient doctor.
I think the child is mentally traumatized now, and I hope he doesn't become psychologically isolated.
Yun Qiao also instructed Qiu Ye to keep a close eye on the matter and to tell her promptly if there were any problems.
On the way from Chunhui Garden to Lan Garden, Yun Qiao was thinking that this child must not be sent to the eldest wife, Mrs. Cai, for fear that she would take the child away. Once Mrs. Cai found out, she would come quickly to take the child away.
After all, what she did was shameful.
She was afraid that everyone would know about the trouble.
"Qiu Chan, you went to look for the Marquis. I don't know where he is at this time. Go and ask him."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Qiu Chan didn't even go back to Lanyuan, but went straight to find the Marquis.
Xiao Tao followed behind Yun Qiao and asked softly, "Miss, do you really want to take that child in?"
Yun Qiao: "I really don't want to accept it. Let's talk about it later."
Qiu Chan went out of the Marquis' Mansion to find someone and asked around. The person said that the Marquis had gone to Prince Mingyu's Mansion to discuss something. Qiu Chan then followed him to the Prince's Mansion.
Qiu Chan is a very practical person. She has to do what Aunt Qiao asks her to do.
Xiaodong saw that the person who came to see the Marquis was Yunqiao's maid, so he stepped forward and delivered the message.
It was a rare opportunity for his beautiful aunt to take the initiative to look for him.
Chen Jingyan was about to leave before he even finished his drink.
"I have something to do at home. Let's get together another day."
"Come back to my house."
Chen Jingyan said this and was about to leave.
Prince Mingyu sat on a chair, grinning, "We were just in the mood for a conversation, and you left like this. Next time I will definitely come to your house to see how your beautiful concubine has bewitched you so much."
Chen Jingyan didn't answer, just stood up and left.
After Chen Jingyan left, the man who had been hiding in the dark came out leisurely.
"Since Princess Hua Chao wanted to meet Chen Jingyan, why didn't she come out earlier? Instead, she came out after he left. In this way, what can you see?" Prince Mingyu joked.
Hua Chao calmly walked to the seat in front of Prince Mingyu and sat down.
"One look is enough. He is indeed a good man. Would it be okay if I married him?"
Hua Chao asked calmly.
Prince Mingyu smiled and said, "This is Princess Huachao's business, what does it have to do with me?"
There are still a lot of messes in her mansion that have not been dealt with.
The mother of Prince Mingyu died early. He had an older illegitimate brother and two sons born to his stepmother. They were eager for him to fall out of favor and quickly replace him as the prince.
Princess Huachao said, "If I marry Chen Jingyan and gain power in the future, you will certainly not behave like this in front of Prince Rui."
Upon hearing this, Prince Mingyu immediately asked, "May I ask, Princess, do you truly love Chen Jingyan and want to marry him, or are you after his power?"
Chen Jingyan has now taken back the military power from the border, but his appeal remains.
Prince Mingyu is not a fool. He is naturally worried that someone will take advantage of Chen Jingyan.
Princess Huachao suddenly chuckled.
"Look at the way you ask. If I didn't like him, how could I possibly want to marry him? Of course I like him. You also know my current situation. Although I am a princess, I don't have any real power. I don't even have my own princess palace."
"If I marry Chen Jingyan, I will at least be the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei, a prestigious status that everyone envies."
Does Princess Huachao envy any other identities?
Prince Mingyu didn't believe what she said.
But why did Princess Huachao want to marry Chen Jingyan?
Prince Mingyu was not clear about this either. He seemed to have no idea what Princess Hua Chao was thinking.
***
On the way back, Qiu Chan told the Marquis what happened in the mansion.
Chen Jingyan was very surprised after hearing this.
Only then did he remember that he had heard Yun Qiao's thoughts before and learned that the eldest wife's daughter-in-law Cai was secretly harsh on the boy. He was busy with official duties and wanted to be intimate with Yun Qiao when he had some time, but he didn't think of intervening.
Unexpectedly, it almost resulted in a loss of life.
"You didn't see it, my Lord. The child was covered in dirt and didn't look like a child at all. Aunt Qiao was kind-hearted. She quickly brought people and carried the child out. The maids guarding the kitchen were trying to stop them."
"Madam Qiao is really afraid that the first wife will cause trouble again, so she asked this servant to come to you."
Chen Jingyan had no intention of listening to Qiu Chan's words and was only focused on going to the Marquis' Mansion.
What he was worried about was not the child, but Yun Qiao. She was not competitive and would not fight for anything. If the people from the eldest wife came out and he was not there, who knew how much she would suffer.
***
Yun Qiao had just sat in Lan Garden for a while when she heard Qiu Ye running back with an anxious look on his face.
"Auntie, the eldest house has sent people to take Zhao Yuan away, saying it was the eldest young mistress's order and they dared not disobey."
"At this moment, Sister Ziyuan is crying and shouting and won't let me go."
Yun Qiao frowned and stood up immediately.
"Zhaoyuan is so young and so seriously ill. If they touch him now, wouldn't that be killing the child?"
Yun Qiao's voice unconsciously became louder.
When Aunt Qiao, who usually spoke softly, suddenly spoke so loudly, even Xiaotao, who was standing beside her, was startled.
Her daughter seemed to have become different from before. The phrase she said most often before was that harmony brings wealth and peace is the best way to deal with things.
Now I have a bad temper.
Of course, this temper is good and will not allow others to bully you.
Xiaotao was also happy for her daughter.
"Yes, girl, let's go and take a look now."
Yun Qiao looked at Xiao Tao, who was even more excited than her, took a glance, and walked forward on her own.
When she arrived at Chunhui Garden, she saw an old maid pulling Chen Yuan.
"Don't you see who you are? You're trying to stop the young mistress?"
The old woman said this as she reached out to slap Chen Yuan away.
Ah Chun wanted to go and protect her, but was stopped by two maids and was not allowed to go forward.
Yun Qiao walked over and kicked away the old maid who was about to hit Chen Yuan.
"You are the one who needs to be checked. She is my daughter, Yun Qiao, and she also has to call you father. So, what is her status?"
When Yun Qiao kicked out, the old woman immediately sat down on the ground.
She also didn't expect that the seemingly weak Aunt Qiao could kick her directly.
"you,……."
"What am I doing? If you dare try to use your fingers on me again."
Yun Qiao stepped forward, grabbed the old woman's hand, and snapped her fingers twice.
All he saw was the old woman crying and shouting. Yun Qiao stood calmly on the side, turned around and picked up Chen Yuan from the ground.
"Crying won't solve the problem. Wipe away the tears."
"Go check on your brother."
Chen Yuan quickly wiped away her tears and turned to see her brother when she saw her savior coming to the gate of Chunhui Garden.
"Aunt, the Marquis is here..." Chen Yuan shouted to Yun Qiao.
