Lu Ze didn't say anything. Qin Yuli clenched her fists and asked, "Brother Ze, what is your relationship with Princess Qi's daughter?"
"It has nothing to do with me or Cousin Qin."
After Lu Ze finished speaking, he bowed to Princess Pingrou and said, "I will take my leave now."
Princess Pingrou chuckled and nodded: "You've lost a lot of weight after walking for half a month. Go and rest quickly."
Qin Yuli reluctantly caught up with Lu Ze. She had never thought that Lu Ze would have anything to do with Qi Yuning. "Cousin Ze, what is your relationship with Princess Qi?"
Lu Ze frowned and said to Qin Yuli, "Why are you asking this, cousin Qin?"
"Qi Yuning is a fickle and impure woman. Don't be fooled by her!" Qin Yuli said, clenching her hands.
Lu Ze asked, "What's wrong with Princess Qi?"
"She is unmarried and has a daughter..."
Thinking of Qi Yuning's daughter's appearance, Qin Yuli continued, "Qi Yuning broke the Eighth Prince's leg because she wanted to be his consort. She drugged him so she could devote herself to him, but he still didn't want to marry her. That's why she broke his leg in anger!"
Lu Ze clenched his fists. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Qin Yuli said, "A year ago, Qi Yuning drugged the Eighth Prince and has long been his mistress. Qi Yuning is a dirty, cheap woman who can be slept with by anyone!"
Lu Ze frowned and said coldly, "The sister Qi I know is honest and upright. But you, on the other hand, gossip about others behind their backs and slander them. In terms of being filthy and despicable, who in Shengjing City can compare to you, Miss Qin?"
Qin Yuli said with red eyes: "Cousin Ze."
Lu Ze turned and left, while Qin Yuli's eyes were red and she kept crying.
…
After noon, Qi Yuning summoned housekeeper He again.
When Butler He came in, Xiao Lingling jumped into Qi Yuning's study and said, "Mom, Daddy is here. He said he wants to take me hiking!"
Jingzhe, who was following Lingling, said, "The prince is at the side door. He asked me to ask the princess if she wants to take Miss Lingling with her to climb the mountain."
We missed it last Double Ninth Festival because it rained, and then we went to the imperial mausoleum for the birthday banquet, and also went out to investigate a case, so we really haven't taken Lingling out to climb the mountain.
Seeing Lingling's excited and smiling face, Qi Yuning naturally didn't want to let her down. "Jingzhe, go prepare two sets of clothes for Lingling, and prepare a change of clothes for me as well. Also, prepare some more cakes."
"yes."
Lingling raised her arms and said to Butler He, "Uncle He, Lingling is going to climb the mountain!"
With the addition of a young master to Prince Qi's mansion, the entire mansion is much more lively than before.
Steward He looked at Lingling and chuckled, "If Miss Ping hadn't lost her child a year ago, the North City Palace would have been so bustling."
Qi Yuning asked, "Didn't Miss Ping take contraceptive pills?"
If Qi Yuning didn't know that his brother was going to marry a princess in the future, he would think that it didn't matter if his brother's concubines didn't take contraceptive pills. The Qi family was in desperate need of children, and the Qi family was a family of military generals, so having many descendants would be even better.
But if she becomes a princess in the future, having a concubine's eldest son might be a problem.
Butler He said, "No, the prince said that the palace is too quiet, so the more children the better."
Qi Yuning asked, "How many concubines does my brother have?"
"Just Miss Ping." Butler He replied.
Qi Yuning pursed her lips. It was not her place to interfere in her brother's affairs. But since Qi Yuan'an said the more children the better, why was there only one concubine, Miss Ping?
In the past two years, Qi Yuning has not failed to consider his brother's marriage.
But Qi Yuanan always said that there was no rush for marriage. Beicheng was in a miserable state, and it was inconvenient to let the daughter of a noble family in Shengjing suffer there, so he was not in a hurry for marriage.
Qi Yuning used to think that her brother really cared about his future sister-in-law, but now she wondered if it was because Miss Ping held a very high position in his heart?
What will happen to the princess's sister-in-law in the future?
Qi Yuning asked again: "How did Miss Ping lose her child?"
Housekeeper He said, "Miss Ping came here to escape war. She hadn't recovered at that time, and she became pregnant and worried too much, so she miscarried."
Qi Yuning sighed: "She is also a pitiful person."
Afternoon.
Lingling was jumping and skipping when she went out, and almost everyone in Prince Qi's Mansion knew that she was going to climb the mountain.
After Qi Yuning walked out of the main gate, he did not see the carriage from the prince's mansion, but saw the carriage from the princess's mansion.
Qi Yuning asked Lichun who was standing beside him, "Where is our carriage?"
Lu Ze walked up to Qi Yuning and said, "Let's go out in the princess's carriage today."
Lingling opened her arms for Lu Ze to hold her. Lu Ze chuckled and carried Lingling onto the carriage, then reached out to help Qi Yuning get on.
Qi Yuning did not reject Lu Ze this time. She wanted to put her hand on Lu Ze's wrist, but Lu Ze held her hand.
Qi Yuning took a look and said nothing more. She took Lu Ze's hand and got into the carriage.
The carriage was spacious, and Lu Baozhu was inside.
When Lingling saw Lu Baozhu, she went into her arms and said, "Auntie!"
Lu Baozhu hugged Lingling and said, "Auntie misses you so much!"
Qi Yuning turned away when she saw the two people who were so affectionate as aunt and niece.
Lu Ze sat down opposite Qi Yuning and asked, "Why are you so unhappy, Princess?"
Qi Yuning didn't want to admit that she was jealous of Lu Baozhu. "I just heard that my brother's concubine had a miscarriage. If the fetus was still alive, I would be an aunt by now."
Lu Baozhu was surprised and said, "Prince Qi actually has a concubine? Then I have to persuade Lu Baoxue to give up Prince Qi. She must not find a husband who takes concubines. Men in our Lu family don't take concubines."
