Chapter 166: All in



Chapter 166: All in

"Why did my aunt send me back?" Hu Yingyue had been laughing all day, but now she couldn't laugh anymore.

She doesn't want to go back.

The wife of Marquis Jingwei did not look at her.

Holding his forehead weakly, he said, "When I brought you here, I wanted you to be with the prince to win him over, so that he wouldn't be alienated from me."

"Now you have seen that the princess is ruthless and you can't get in her way at all. You might as well go home."

Hu Yingyue pursed her lips and sat next to the wife of Marquis Jingwei to give her a back massage.

"Aunt, I want to stay in the capital."

"I really don't have the energy to take care of you." Lady Jingweihou was impatient.

"But I'll stay and help you."

Hu Yingyue's mind raced. "First, you're under house arrest. I'll find out the news outside for you. Second, I can try to curry favor with the princess. Once she marries you, you'll know everything that's going on."

The wife of Marquis Jingwei was a little moved.

"Third, you don't have a daughter, and I don't have a mother either. You should treat me as your own daughter. If I marry into a wealthy family in the future, I will be a support for you and the Second Young Master."

The wife of Marquis Jingwei was in a trance.

What Hu Yingyue said makes sense.

But why does she feel that all the benefits belong to Hu Yingyue?

"The Marquis' Mansion doesn't need me to feed you. Please have pity on me and don't let me go back. Life in Yuezhou is too hard."

Hu Yingyue's tears fell.

"Alright, alright," Lady Jingwei decided not to chase her away, "but I'm warning you, don't get close to Che."

"Don't worry, Auntie," Hu Yingyue raised her hand and swore, "If I have any improper thoughts about the Second Young Master, I will never have enough to eat again."

She said, "I am an orphan. If you are not satisfied, it would be easy to beat me or kill me."

Just then the servant brought the medicine.

"Let me do it." Hu Yingyue took it skillfully and fed the medicine to the wife of Marquis Jingwei.

The trembling of her long eyelashes hid the fire in her eyes.

She never wanted to go back to Yuezhou and live a life of hunger again.

After temporarily calming down the wife of Marquis Jingwei, Hu Yingyue had a sleepless night.

The next day, she went straight to Chi Yuan.

"My aunt has thought of sending me back to Yuezhou. Prince, you and the princess must protect me."

She knew that the Marquis' Mansion had fallen into Chi Yuan's hands.

The Marquis's wife was under house arrest, and her role was gone.

Chi Yuan, "The princess and I are not the kind of people who would destroy a bridge after crossing it."

Hu Yingyue felt relieved.

On the way back to the room, I saw Chi Che walking towards me from a distance.

She dodged and hid.

As soon as he left the Dali Temple, Chi Yuan changed into his casual clothes and rode his horse straight to the Dingxiang Marquis's Mansion.

After the engagement, there was no need for him and Qu Ling to avoid suspicion with each other.

As soon as he entered the room, he heard Qu Ling's voice coming from the corridor, "Master Shaoqing, you come here at this time, are you looking for food?"

Chi Yuan looked up.

Seeing Qu Ling leaning against the pillar, his eyes were particularly bright.

He walked forward uncontrollably, "I made all the arrangements for Marquis Jingwei's Mansion yesterday."

The smile on Qu Ling's face grew even brighter. "What a quick move."

She was praising Chi Yuan, but Chi Yuan just said, "A Ling, thank you."

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for giving me the confidence and the position of the crown prince."

He knew very well how he got the position of crown prince.

Without Qu Ling, he would be as cautious as ever and unable to let go.

His methods could not be used in the Marquis' Mansion.

He couldn't fight with Chi Che, and he couldn't completely break off relations with Marquis Jingwei.

What would happen if the scale in Marquis Jingwei's heart was completely biased? He couldn't predict it.

Until Qu Ling appeared and turned the situation around.

The position of the crown prince has been decided.

It's not difficult to prevent him from becoming the crown prince.

But it is not so easy to remove him from the position of crown prince.

With the confidence given by Qu Ling, he was able to use his methods without any scruples in the Marquis' Mansion.

Qu Ling raised his eyebrows, "I told you, if you marry me, no one can take the position of Crown Prince away from you."

"The market is opening on Nanchang Street today," Chi Yuan unconsciously softened his voice. "A Ling, do you want to go and see it?"

Qu Ling's eyes lit up, and the teasing look on his face was instantly replaced by joy. "Wait for me to change my clothes."

Then he said, "We won't have dinner at home. Let's go out."

She disappeared in a flash.

There was a hint of smile in Chi Yuan's eyes, exuding tenderness and tenderness.

In just half a minute, Qu Ling changed into casual clothes, tied her hair up simply and put a blooming crabapple in it. She didn't wear any jewelry and looked like an ordinary girl.

Chi Yuan stood beside her, like a young scholar accompanying his wife on a trip.

The two smiled at each other and were about to go out when they heard a commotion.

A man with disheveled hair rushed out from the front yard, followed by several panicked servants.

"Lianzhi, come to daddy." The man opened his arms and rushed towards Qu Ling.

Chi Yuan subconsciously stood in front of Qu Ling, and only then recognized that it was Qu Xin, the Marquis of Dingxiang.

The once majestic marquis is now emaciated, with a dull look in his eyes and only keeps calling "Lianzhi".

Even if he was crazy, the only person he could think of was Qu Lianzhi.

As for Qu Ling, he had been erased from Qu Xin's heart as early as when he was sent to Jiangzhou.

Chi Yuan turned around to comfort Qu Ling, but saw that there was no sadness on her face, only obvious displeasure.

"What's going on with the servants?" Qu Ling's voice was as cold as ice. "Why did the Marquis come here?"

She didn't even call him father.

She stood there with her back straight, her eyes showing no other emotion except dissatisfaction at being offended.

Chi Yuan was dazed by what he saw.

Then she smiled softly, feeling relieved and wanting to get closer to Qu Ling.

Yun Wu and several maids came panting and fell to her knees upon seeing Qu Ling. "Princess, please forgive me. I deserve to die."

Qu Ling frowned, "If you do it again, I won't let you off easily."

These few words frightened Yunwu so much that she dared not utter a word.

The servants hurriedly carried Qu Xi, who was still shouting "Lianzhi", away. In a blink of an eye, the courtyard returned to peace, as if the farce had never happened.

Chi Yuan looked at Qu Ling deeply.

She handled it so cleanly and without hesitation or sentimentality.

Qu Ling raised his eyes and found Chi Yuan's meaningful gaze.

She said nothing.

She waited for him to speak.

Chi Yuan felt that he understood her a little better.

She never explained her actions to anyone.

This is Princess Jia'an, who is held in the palm of the eldest princess's hand.

She allowed him to ask questions, which was his privilege.

If it were someone else, no one would dare to say a word.

"I'm not as good as you, A Ling." Chi Yuan just said this in the end.

This sentence contains so much.

Qu Ling laughed, and the coldness in his expression just now had melted away.

She even stood on tiptoe and patted Chi Yuan's shoulder, like an older brother teaching his younger brother, "It's okay, learn from me more in the future."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly lifted up her skirt and trotted towards the gate of the mansion. Her excited back no longer showed any of her previous indifference.

She was clearly a little girl who just wanted to go to the market and play.

Chi Yuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. He quickly followed and naturally took her hand at the gate. "Slow down, don't fall. The market won't have legs and run away."

Qu Ling turned around, his eyes gleaming with a brilliance that Chi Yuan had never seen before. "I heard there are merchants from the Western Regions selling gems on South Chang Street."

The servants in the mansion always talked to her about it, but she alone couldn't muster any interest.

With Chi Yuan by her side, she became interested.

She is very happy.

In her previous life, the seventeen years old she didn't have, and the person she wanted to have before she died, were both there.
