Early in the morning, it started to rain outside again.
As the Qingming Festival approaches, there is also a lot of rain.
After Qi Yuning settled the wedding money and sorted out the account books, he took Lingling to the Song Mansion in the afternoon.
Song Heqing's wedding date is approaching, and the Song family is filled with joy.
Qi Yuning entered Song Heqing's room and met two teaching maids.
Seeing Qi Yuning's curiosity about the identity of the nanny in front of her, Song Heqing said, "This is the nanny my mother hired to teach me etiquette."
Qi Yuning said: "He Qing, I want to talk to you alone."
Song Heqing asked the two teaching maids and her own maid to go down.
Qi Yuning handed Lingling to Lichun and Chunfen, "Take Lingling to play in the yard."
Song Heqing watched Lingling leave and chuckled, "Lingling is getting cuter and cuter. It's hot out now, and seeing her in a little skirt is so funny. It makes me want to have a girl as cute as her."
Qi Yuning chuckled and said, "My Lingling is not only cute, but also very considerate and well-behaved."
Song Heqing asked, "Yuning, is Lingling really your child with the prince?"
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Yes."
Seeing that Qi Yuning was unwilling to tell the truth, Song Heqing didn't say anything more.
Qi Yuning poured Song Heqing a cup of tea and said, "Heqing, you and I have been sisters for many years, so I will be frank with you. Heqing, the prince is not a good man, you cannot marry him."
Song Heqing took the tea that Qi Yuning offered her and said, "Yuning, I have made up my mind. I will only marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in this life. No matter what, I will only marry him!"
Qi Yuning asked, "Even if he can't ascend the throne?"
Song Heqing took a sip of tea and said, "Don't laugh at me, I really hope he can't ascend to the throne."
Qi Yuning raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"
Song Heqing said, "If he were just an idle prince, perhaps he and I could have the same loving relationship as Prince Duan and his wife. Even if he had concubines, there wouldn't be any power struggles between the sisters in the backyard, and I wouldn't have to worry about my future children."
"I never wanted to be a Crown Princess, much less the Master of the Six Palaces. I just wanted my husband to be Zhao Chong. It's that simple."
Qi Yuning said, "He doesn't deserve your sincerity. Do you remember when you came to the backyard to look for me on my brother's wedding day a few days ago?"
Song Heqing nodded and said, "Well, I wanted to talk to you at that time, but the maid said you were catching up on your sleep, so I left."
"That day when you left my courtyard, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pretended to be drunk and lured Kai Lichun into my room." Qi Yuning looked at Song Heqing and said, "Heqing, he is truly not worthy of your true love."
Song Heqing looked at Qi Yuning in surprise and said, "Yuning, I don't think His Highness did this on purpose. He might not be pretending to be drunk, but really is drunk..."
Qi Yuning said, "I treat you as my best sister and friend. Do you really want to marry a pervert who broke into your best sister's room? And are you still going to defend him?"
Song Heqing asked, "Yuning, is there a misunderstanding?"
Qi Yuning said: "There is no misunderstanding."
Song Heqing pursed her lips and said, "Yuning, I think the Crown Prince was just confused for a moment after drinking. He didn't do anything to you after all, did he?"
Qi Yuning frowned and looked at Song Heqing and said, "You knew exactly what he did, yet you still tried to excuse him. You are simply hopeless!"
Song Heqing drank the water in the cup and said, "My mother died when I was young, my stepmother was unkind, and there was also a concubine sister in the mansion who competed with me. My concubine sister took advantage of my aunt's favor and pushed me into the river during a hunt. If it weren't for the Crown Prince's rescue, I would have died.
At that time, my father still wanted to protect my concubine sister. My stepmother had just married in and dared to bully me, the legitimate daughter left by the previous wife, but she did not dare to deal with my concubine sister whom my father doted on. My father and stepmother blamed me for going to the river to play by myself.
I fell into the river when I had a cold and cough. My concubine sister who pushed me into the river was fine, but I was accused of playing around and was punished to kneel in the autumn. I had no way to defend myself, and it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who stood up for me.
If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I would have died in the river, or perhaps died on that autumn night when I was punished to kneel. Since I was twelve years old, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been in my heart.
"Yu Ning, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had any lewd intentions towards you, he is the Crown Prince. Why would he be so despicable as to sneak into your room? He would have already owned the Great Sheng World. He might have been really drunk."
Song Heqing held Qi Yuning's hands and said, "Yuning, believe me this time. I believe that the Crown Prince I like is a good man. He might really be drunk..."
Qi Yuning pulled his hand out of Song Heqing's and said, "I've tried my best to persuade you, but you didn't listen to me. You'll regret it later. I'm leaving now."
Song Heqing said repeatedly: "Yuning, I want you to be my bridesmaid and accompany me to marry into the Eastern Palace."
"I have no time."
Qi Yuning left three words coldly.
Song Heqing looked at Qi Yuning's back and clasped his hands, "I'm sorry, Yuning..."
Qi Yuning carried Lingling and left the Song Mansion.
Jingzhe was waiting in the carriage. Seeing Qi Yuning's surprised face, he asked, "Princess."
Lingling also noticed Qi Yuning's sullen expression, "Mom, don't be angry. Mom, you should be happy."
Qi Yuning touched Lingling's little face and said, "Your Aunt Song is so stupid!"
Qi Yuning was still very angry when she returned to the palace. When she heard that Shuangjiang had arrived, she went to the study to see Shuangjiang.
"Grandma!" Lingling called out sweetly when she saw Shuangjiang. "Grandma, Lingling hasn't seen you in a long time!"
