Xu Wanqing was completely panicked. Lu Mingxuan did not refute her, but tacitly agreed with what Sun said.
"No, we can't do that. I have babies. We can make them listen to us in the future."
Xu Wanqing hurriedly blocked their way and explained eagerly.
Lu Mingxuan frowned and said in a muffled voice, "Your father's attitude just now has already explained everything. What else can you do?"
Seeing his tone soften, Xu Wanqing smiled, "I have a pair of treasures on me that the prince needs. As long as we take them to the prince, he will definitely not treat us badly."
Sun's eyes lit up, "What treasure?"
Xu Wanqing pretended to be mysterious, "The treasure is here with me, but you can't let everyone see it."
She still understood this.
Sun pouted in anger, but thinking that she could help her son, she endured it for the time being.
"In that case, you can take it and ask to see the prince. That way, Wanqing won't have to suffer here anymore. Look at how those people bullied her just now."
Xu Wanqing nodded with tears in her eyes and a look of grievance.
Lu Mingxuan sighed, "In that case, I'll go back and find a matchmaker, and we'll get married on February 2nd."
Xu Wanqing was deeply moved. She hugged Lu Mingxuan's arm and said in a soft voice, "Okay, anyway, I can't stay in this house anymore."
After saying goodbye, Xu Wanqing hurried to tell Zhao Yaru the good news.
Feiyun Garden
"She said it?"
"Ms., she said so."
Xu Wanyan sneered. Xu Wanqing’s disaster had really begun.
"Did you mention the prince?"
"It was mentioned that after the marriage, she requested to see the Crown Prince."
Xu Wanyan nodded and said, "Find a way to tell your prince."
"yes!"
After Leng Ning left, Xu Wanyan felt annoyed. Is Xiao Jingming worth trusting?
"Miss, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion has sent another invitation."
Qiao Yun handed over the visiting card with a happy face.
Xu Wanyan frowned, "Shen Yujiao again?"
Qiao Yun nodded, "Mrs. Lin feels bored and wants Miss to talk to her."
Xu Wanyan opened the invitation and found that the content was exactly the same as what Qiao Yun had said.
Unfortunately, she didn't believe it was that simple.
The Xu family is now in decline and is very different from the Lin family. How could she possibly meet her again and again?
Because she is well-behaved and sensible?
She doesn't believe it.
"Get ready, we'll be there later."
"Yes! Leng Ning is going too?"
Xu Wanyan nodded, "Let's go together."
When they arrived at the Lin family, the Lin family members' expressions changed when they saw Leng Ning beside Xu Wanyan.
Shen Yujiao was surprised and said slowly: "Wanyan, has your maid been replaced?"
Xu Wanyan smiled and nodded, "Nowadays, there are many things to do, so there are more people."
Shen Yujiao looked a little unnatural. She now understood why the old lady asked for her help politely.
Looking at Xu Wanyan's innocent face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After all, this matter had to be taken care of by himself.
"Mrs. Lin, I've been busy at home lately and haven't been able to come and chat with you. I'm politely sorry."
Seeing this, Shen Yujiao's expression returned to normal. She took her hand and said with a smile, "I heard that Wanyan is already in charge of the household affairs at such a young age."
"It's all because of my father and mother's favoritism. I, in fact, can't do it either."
"You are so modest. You look steady at first glance. Whoever marries you will be blessed."
After saying that, Shen Yujiao suddenly thought of something and looked a little embarrassed.
Xu Wanyan pretended not to see it and was concerned about the baby in her belly.
About half an hour later, a mother came out, not the same one from last time.
"Mother Xue"
Seeing Shen Yujiao stand up and greet her, Xu Wanyan also stood up and called out.
Mother Xue nodded calmly, then smiled and said, "Is this young lady the second daughter of the Xu family?"
Before Xu Wanyan could reply, Shen Yujiao nodded, "That's right."
Mother Xue's face was full of smiles. "The old lady heard that the young lady of the Xu family had arrived, so she sent this old servant here specially. She wanted to invite the second young lady Xu to come over and have a chat. I wonder...is the second young lady Xu available?"
"Of course it's convenient."
The old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery wanted to see her, so how could she say it was inconvenient?
"In that case, Miss Xu, please follow me."
Xu Wanyan nodded and said goodbye to Shen Yujiao.
Shen Yujiao's eyes were full of worry, but she nodded anyway.
Following Mother Xue, Xu Wanyan left Shen Yujiao's yard. The yard became more and more spacious and more and more magnificent, until a burst of fragrance hit her, and Mother Xue stopped.
"We're here. Miss Xu, please follow this old servant in."
"Thank you."
When I entered the yard, I saw Mrs. Lin sitting on the armchair in the hall with her eyes closed.
There was a maidservant beside her who was lighting incense, and the slowly rising smoke rings made her dazed for a moment.
"Madam, Miss Xu is here."
It was a long time after Mother Xue finished speaking that Mrs. Lin opened her eyes.
When he saw Leng Ning, a hint of gloom flashed across his eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
"Come, come, come and sit here with me."
His face was so kind that Xu Wanyan almost suspected that she had just seen it wrong.
"Thank you, Madam."
"I've been here for a while."
Xu Wanyan smiled and shook her head, "I just arrived, the old lady's fragrance is really nice."
"Of course not. This was brought back from the border by Prince Chen. You can't buy it in the capital."
"No wonder, His Royal Highness Prince Chen is so filial, the old lady is so blessed."
"Who says it's not true? Prince Chen has been raised by me since he was a child. Even though he's my grandson, I love him more than any of the other children in the Lin family."
"His Royal Highness Prince Chen is also blessed to have a grandmother like you who loves him so much."
Madam Lin's eyes were vague. "Yes, it's his fault that he lost his mother so early. How miserable!"
Xu Wanyan lowered her head and replied apologetically, "Madam, I've spoken out of turn."
Madam Lin sighed, "Everything is destined."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Xu Wanyan with a hawk-like gaze, "His mother has always had a wish, but unfortunately, the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, and she will die with regrets!"
Xu Wanyan was shocked and stood up quickly.
"Don't be afraid, it's all from the past life. Fortunately, things have changed now."
Xu Wanyan didn't dare to say a word. How could she dare to say anything about the royal family's affairs?
"Before Chen'er was born, his mother and our Lin family agreed that if the child was a boy, Yue'e would marry him."
Hearing this, Xu Wanyan's face turned pale instantly. The Crown Princess and Xiao Jingming actually had...an engagement.
So, the last time the Crown Princess saw her...
This time, Madam Lin came to her for this matter?
Xu Wanyan's heart was pounding, not knowing what was waiting for her.
Madam Lin narrowed her eyes, watching Xu Wanyan's expression change unpredictably, and continued, "Later, the late emperor came to grant a marriage."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly laughed, "Your grandfather was young and promising at that time, and he was really loved by the late emperor."
"The late emperor was wise, powerful, benevolent, and generous. The Xu family has received the late emperor's grace. We are grateful, but also feel deeply sorry."
