Chapter 470 You Can’t Kill Me
Upon hearing this, Su Hanchu suddenly walked forward to Qian Yan and spoke into her ear.
"Don't worry, I won't compete with you for a man. I don't like people like Jun Moxu, but I do have a problem with body doubles. Wouldn't you be uncomfortable with someone like that hanging around in your house? Besides, men are not as important as sisters. I have plenty of men I want."
Before Qian Yan could react, Su Hanchu had already stepped back.
"Go back quickly. It's early winter now and the wind is very cold. Don't catch a cold."
Qian Yan wasn't sure what Su Hanchu was trying to do, so he had to speak.
"Well, City Lord Su, take care."
Su Hanchu got on the carriage, and Qiu Yue also climbed up timidly under the gaze of Caixing.
Only after watching the carriage drive away did Qian Yan turn around and return home.
In the carriage.
Su Hanchu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qiu Yue, speaking in a gentle voice.
"Are you scared? Were you hurt just now?"
Qiu Yue took the teacup carefully.
"Thank you, City Lord Su. It's okay. It doesn't hurt."
Then he looked up at Su Hanchu and spoke cautiously.
"City Lord Su, was it you who sent me the letter last night?"
Su Hanchu glanced at the teacup in her hand.
"Have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up first. Don't worry, I'll tell you everything I need to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue drank the tea in her hand and couldn't wait to speak.
"City Lord Su."
Su Hanchu looked at her and spoke.
"Why did you enter the Prince's Mansion?"
Qiu Yue responded after hearing this.
"Two years ago, my father was seriously ill, so my mother and I brought him to the Imperial City for treatment. All the money we had saved was gone, and both my father's medicine and our place to stay required money. We happened to meet the Crown Prince, who asked me to come into his palace as a concubine. I asked for thirty taels of silver, gave it to my mother, and followed the Crown Prince into the palace. Who knew that once I entered the Crown Prince's mansion, I would never see my family again?
A few days ago, I finally begged His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for grace, and he allowed me to go home for two days. When I returned, I found out that my father had passed away two years ago, and my mother was nowhere to be found.
As Qiu Yue said this, her eyes turned red.
Now it was completely certain that the mother Qiu in his house and the Qiu Yue in front of him were mother and daughter. Su Hanchu leaned back.
"Qiu Yue, logically speaking, even if you entered the Prince's Mansion, you can still go home to visit your family, and even use your monthly salary to support your family. How could you not even see your father before he passed away?"
Qiu Yue wiped away her tears upon hearing this.
"Lord Su, you are from a noble family. How can a concubine like me leave the house so easily?"
Su Hanchu's eyes became sharper when he heard this.
"Really? Is the Prince's Mansion so unsympathetic?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue lowered her head and spoke nervously.
"City Lord Su, this... I..."
Seeing her nervousness, Su Hanchu did not continue to ask.
Instead, he spoke slowly.
"Okay, if you find this question difficult to answer, then don't answer it. I'll ask you another question."
Qiu Yue hurriedly spoke after hearing this.
"City Lord Su, please speak."
Su Hanchu looked at her and asked.
"You still miss your mother, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue nodded hurriedly.
"Of course I'm worried about her. I've asked the neighbor lady to help me look for her. She told me that my mother isn't in a good mood right now. I've been worried about her for the past few days, but I'm extremely anxious and helpless."
Su Hanchu looked at the tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Qiu Yue, if I let you see your mother, what can you do for me?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue looked up at Su Hanchu in shock.
"City Lord Su, do you know my mother?"
Su Hanchu raised his hand to adjust the ends of his hair.
"Otherwise, why would I have gone to all this trouble to bring you here?"
Qiu Yue's eyes were full of surprise.
"Lord Su, you know where my mother is, right?"
Su Hanchu spoke affirmatively.
"I know, and I can let you see him soon, but you haven't answered my question yet. I want you to see your mother. What can you do for me?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue immediately knelt down in the carriage.
"If City Lord Su can really reunite me with my mother, Qiu Yue is willing to serve him like a slave."
Upon hearing this, Su Hanchu looked at her and reminded her.
"You must remember what you said today."
Prince's Mansion.
Jun Moxu accompanied Qian Yan for dinner today.
"It seems that you and City Lord Su get along well."
Qianyan paused for a moment while picking up food with her chopsticks.
"City Lord Su has a straightforward personality, which is really good."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moxu picked up a piece of food for her with his chopsticks.
"Since you two are getting along well, can you reconsider what I told you before?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Yan looked up at Jun Moxu.
"Your Highness, have you ever heard that there can't be two tigers in one mountain? There can't be two mistresses in this Prince's Mansion. Moreover, I, Qian Yan, will never take anyone as a concubine. The position of Crown Prince in this Prince's Mansion can only be said to be for my Yu'er. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, no longer needs to worry about me. After all, I didn't become the Crown Princess solely because of Your Highness's favor."
Qian Yan always had a gentle personality in the past, but today she spoke in such a strong attitude. Jun Moxu frowned and spoke with a hint of anger in his tone.
"It seems I have been too indulgent to the Crown Princess recently. Doesn't she even know the difference between superiors and inferiors now?"
Seeing this, Qianyan put down her chopsticks.
"I am full, Your Highness, enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he got up and left.
Jun Moxu scolded him harshly upon seeing this.
"Stop, Qianyan, is this how you want to treat me? I'm discussing this with you out of respect, so don't be ungrateful. Since you get along well with Hanchu, and she's straightforward, I don't think she'll be willing to take care of the trivial matters of the Crown Prince's Mansion in the future, it would be the best of both worlds if she becomes the Crown Princess and you continue to hold the power of housekeeper."
Upon hearing this, Qian Yan suddenly raised her hand and pulled the tablecloth on the table.
"Crash" all the tableware fell to the ground, making a mess. Qian Yan spoke with anger in her eyes.
"Don't know what's good for you? Who is it that doesn't know what's good for you? Your Highness, I've been your Crown Princess for all these years, accompanying you step by step. Have you ever been bothered by the affairs of the mansion? Have I ever treated the concubines, the ladies, or even the concubines, unfairly? I've even taught the concubines carefully and supported you wholeheartedly, and yet in the end, you're the only one who says you don't know what's good for you. Your Highness is truly heartless and selfish."
Jun Moxu roared angrily when he heard this.
"Qianyan..."
Qian Yan interrupted him.
"Then consider this as my own ignorance. The Qian family's connections in the court have become deeply entwined over the years, Your Highness. You are well aware of this. Our business is widespread throughout the court and the country. If you have the guts, Your Highness, go and tell the Qian family that you want to depose me. You can't kill me, right?"
