"My mother-in-law is right! I will take good care of my third sister." Liu Yuanhao agreed.
As long as Tong doesn't have any intentions towards Liu Qin!
He could follow Tong's arrangements, but Tong could not think of taking advantage of Liu Qin.
Tong smiled and said, "Mother hasn't met your little sister yet! For An'er's birthday, have her bring the two children to the mansion so that An'er and Xuan'er can interact more with their cousins."
Liu Yuanhao had no reason to refuse. It was Liu Jinan's birthday, and Liu Qin should indeed come to the mansion to attend Liu Jinan's birthday party.
"Mother is right. I will invite my third sister." Liu Yuanhao agreed.
Tong was completely satisfied and said nothing more.
She was willing to let Qi Mo marry Liu Yuanhao because she saw that Liu Yuanhao was mature and steady, and was willing to listen to their arrangements in everything.
Besides, Qi Mo likes Liu Yuanhao, so she can only go with the flow and help them be together.
Now that their children are so grown up, her little opinions about Liu Yuanhao have long disappeared, and she completely accepts Liu Yuanhao.
Liu Yuanhao is a down-to-earth person with ability, so it's worth it that both she and the prince are willing to give him a chance.
After Liu Qin received the invitation, she had no reason not to go to the Zhenbei Palace to attend Liu Jinan's birthday party.
She prepared several gifts early, and then took Lin Yuehong and the other two to the Zhenbei Palace.
Tong was dressed extra formally today, and those who didn't know her would think it was her who was celebrating her birthday.
But it is understandable. The Tong family has lived in Yinzhou for a long time, and this is the first banquet held by the Zhenbei Palace in Kyoto City.
Tong naturally had to dress up and leave a good impression on the noble ladies in Kyoto.
Seeing Liu Qin, Tong looked her up and down. Liu Qin's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Liu Yuanhao's. Looking around the entire Kyoto city, there probably weren't many women more beautiful than Liu Qin, right?
No wonder the Regent took her in and treated her as a guest of honor.
She just didn't know whether the Regent would marry Liu Qin. She actually hoped that Liu Qin could become the Regent's wife. In this way, there would be a relationship between their Zhenbei Palace and the Regent.
But... Liu Qin has been married before, and although they have divorced, Liu Qin is still an abandoned woman after all. Will the Regent allow such a woman to be his Regent Princess?
She thought it unlikely!
Perhaps the Regent just had some feelings for Liu Qin and wanted to play with her for a bit.
Otherwise, why did he just let Liu Qin live in his house without taking any other action?
As for men, it is normal to be lustful, but men are not foolish. They can marry a virtuous and beautiful woman, but they can only keep her as a concubine for their own amusement.
Thinking of this, Tong sighed in her heart.
Why is it so difficult for them to get close to the Regent?
However, there is still hope for Liu Qin, at least the Regent is interested in Liu Qin.
She couldn't neglect Liu Qin either.
"You must be Sanniang, right? You are indeed a beauty, as pretty as a lotus emerging from the water." Tong greeted Liu Qin warmly.
Liu Qin was a little surprised. Why was Tong so enthusiastic towards her?
She was just a young person of low status, but Tong was so enthusiastic towards her, which made her very puzzled.
"Junior pays his respects to the princess. Long live the princess." Liu Qin saluted respectfully.
She couldn't be rude, lest others think she was an ignorant and wild girl.
It must be very difficult for Liu Yuanhao to be the son-in-law of the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion. How could she, as his younger sister, hold Liu Yuanhao back?
Tong helped her up. "Today is just An'er's fourth birthday party. There's no need to be so polite. What's more, you are Yuan Hao's biological sister, which means you are a relative of our Zhenbei Palace. Why should we be polite?"
Hearing this, Liu Qin curled the corners of his mouth.
Has she become a relative of the Zhenbei Palace?
Haha... She thought Tong was so enthusiastic towards her only because of Wei Cunqing.
"Your Highness Princess is right." Liu Qin said with a smile.
Tong looked at the children following Liu Qin again.
These three children are all very pretty, especially Lin Yuerou. Although she is young, her facial features are very delicate. When she grows up, she will probably be even more beautiful than her aunt Liu Qin.
She was just a little timid. She kept holding Jiang Qiuning's hand, acting timidly.
Tong was a lady from a prominent family. She had been generous and sensible since childhood. She did not particularly like women who were too weak.
However, Lin Yuerou's life experience is pitiful, so it's no wonder that she is so cowardly.
Lin Yuerou's biological mother died when she was just born. She grew up in fear and was sold by her own grandmother not long ago. It would be strange if she didn't feel fear.
If anyone wants to blame someone, blame Liu Erniang for marrying the wrong person. Liu Qin is smart and knows when to make a decisive decision, so she breaks off completely with the Lin family.
However... since Liu Qin has already climbed up the ladder, she will naturally not continue to be entangled with the Lin family.
"Are these two Hong'er and Rou'er?" Tong looked at Lin Yuehong and his sister.
Liu Qin was surprised again. Tong had made preparations and even knew the names of Lin Yuehong's brother and sister.
"Hong'er, why don't you pay your respects to the princess?" Liu Qin reminded.
Lin Yuehong stepped forward and he also saluted Tong respectfully, "Greetings to the Princess!"
Tong rubbed Lin Yuehong's head and said, "You are so good! I am your uncle's mother. You can also call me grandmother."
Lin Yuehong: ...
He looked at Liu Qin, asking for her opinion with his eyes.
Liu Qin spoke up to help, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness! But Hong'er is just a commoner and doesn't dare to be presumptuous."
Tong: ...
Liu Qin is too polite!
Who doesn't know that Lin Yuehong has a bright future!
Lin Yuehong is your Majesty's study partner! She will definitely become your Majesty's right-hand man in the future!
Liu Qin doesn't want to get close to them.
Liu Qin was clear-headed.
That's all! If she pushed too hard, it would only backfire.
Liu Qin is Liu Yuanhao's sister, Lin Yuehong is Liu Yuanhao's nephew, and An'er and Xuan'er's cousin.
It was impossible for Liu Qin to distance herself from them.
"Okay, Sanniang, take the child to the backyard to look for Liu Er and the others. They are all inside." Tong asked Liu Qin to take the child to meet up with Liu Yuanhao and the others first.
Liu Qin smiled and said, "Then I will go in first. I won't disturb the princess anymore."
After saying that, Liu Qin led the child to the backyard.
Lin Yuehong looked up at Liu Qin and said, "Aunt, why is Princess Zhenbei so enthusiastic towards us? It seems that my uncle has a very high status in the Zhenbei Palace."
Lin Yuehong thought that Tong was so enthusiastic towards them because she was interested in Liu Yuanhao.
Liu Qin pursed her lips. How should she explain it?
One should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be on guard against others. She did not think that Tong was so nice to them because she liked Liu Yuanhao.
However, she didn't want to think so badly of people. Maybe Tong had no other purpose and just simply liked Lin Yuehong and the others?
Even if it's a bit self-deceptive, she is willing to think the best of people!
