Chapter 56: One Corpse, Two Lives



Hua Qingqing was very nervous today and felt a little absent-minded.

Even my favorite fried fish and snacks didn't taste good anymore. I didn't eat a single bite for a long time.

Jiang and the others noticed that Hua Qingqing was acting strangely and thought she was not feeling well.

Jiang said nervously.

"Qingqing, where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Liu also asked, "Qingqing, do you have a stomachache?"

Hua Wanru took her pulse and shook her head.

"My sister is fine!"

Qingqing frowned and pouted.

[Alas, I can't say it. It was at this banquet that Sister Ru and the male protagonist, the eldest grandson of the emperor, Zhao Zecheng, fell in love at first sight, and the two fell in love with each other. ]

Hua Wanru froze, feeling a little overwhelmed.

[But, in the end, it was a tragedy! ]

[My sister hopes to be with one person for the rest of her life! But the emperor's eldest grandson was indecisive and later became emperor. He was forced by the ministers to marry many concubines! ]

[The relationship between the two broke down, and the eldest grandson of the emperor was furious and abolished his sister's position as queen. In the end, his sister died and two people died! How tragic! ]

Hua Wanru was shocked. One corpse, two lives...

Liu couldn't help but hold Hua Wanru's hand tightly, with worry in her eyes.

Jiang was also extremely shocked.

[My father knelt outside the imperial city for a long time because the eldest grandson of the emperor let his sister down. Alas! He was finally imprisoned! ]

The little Hua Qingqing sighed continuously. The whole carriage fell into silence.

Hua Wanru secretly clenched her hands. She must not repeat the same mistake again. She would never have anything to do with the emperor's eldest grandson again.

When we arrived at the eldest princess's villa, many carriages were already at the door.

Hua Qingqing was held by Hua Lingyi, and everyone followed the nanny from the princess's mansion into the house.

Going around the big screen wall at the entrance, there are pavilions, towers, bridges and lakes behind. The beautiful scenery in front of you makes people linger.

"Hey, Brother Qiu!" Hua Qingqing saw Qiu Mobai being led inside in the distance!

Qiu Mobai also saw them and walked over to greet Jiang, Liu and Liang behind them.

"Meet the three ladies!"

Qiu Mobai's eyes swept over Liu, and his brows slightly frowned.

Jiang smiled and said, "Don't be polite! I didn't expect that Master Qiu would come today!"

Hua Lingyi liked Qiu Mobai very much, so he walked up to him holding Hua Qingqing and slapped him on the shoulder.

"Lao Qiu, you are here, let's sit together for a while!"

Qiu Mobai stood very steadily this time, but he was still annoyed by the call of "Old Qiu" and couldn't help but twitching his lips!

Hua Lingxuan said awkwardly, "Don't be surprised, Mr. Qiu, my second brother really likes getting along with you!"

Hua Lingyi nodded and smiled. "Old Qiu is really easy to get along with! Come sit with us in a while!"

Hua Lingxuan also invited, "Yes, come along! It will be more lively!"

Qiu Mobai declined politely, "Thank you both for the invitation, but I still need to go see the eldest princess... so I won't bother you anymore!"

Hua Lingyi nodded, "Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. You can come find us when you're done!"

Qiu Mobai nodded.

Hua Lingcong was originally standing behind Liang. When he saw that it was Qiu Mobai, he thought of the time when Qiu Mobai came to the Duke's Mansion a few days ago.

Later, he investigated and found out that he was the richest man in Shu, and at a young age, he was the head of a family. He was a very powerful person.

And his relationship with Eunuch Qiu! The look in his eyes when he looked at Qiu Mobai became even more fiery.

I was originally thinking, how can I make some friends with him? It seems like today is an opportunity.

A light flashed in his eyes, and he pulled Hua Lingling forward and called Qiu Mobai before he left.

"This is Mr. Qiu! My apologies!"

Hua Lingling didn't know what Hua Lingcong was going to do, so she could only say, "Hello, Mr. Qiu!"

Qiu Mobai smiled and bowed to them. "Sir, hello, Miss!"

Jiang didn't like the Xifu family. As soon as she saw Hua Lingcong's behavior, she knew what he was up to. She frowned and said calmly.

"Let's go in first! Don't block the way to the princess's mansion!"

Hua Lingcong frowned, but he couldn't disobey. He could only bow to Qiu Mobai and said, "Next time we have a chance, let's have a drink together!"

Qiu Mobai nodded calmly.

Jiang followed the nanny and walked forward. The others hurried to follow.

Not far behind them, Xie Mingjue and Xie Mingyue just came in with Yu Jinzhi.

Yu Jinzhi's eyes flickered slightly and he asked Xie Mingjue.

"That guy just now was Qiu Mobai, a wealthy businessman from Shu?"

Xie Mingjue smiled, "It seems so! I didn't expect him to come today!"

When Xie Mingyue heard Qiu Mobai, her eyes sparkled.

"Ah, it's Qiu Mobai?"

"They recently launched a lot of new perfumes! The quantity is very small, only a few bottles of each. They are sold out as soon as they are put on the shelves! I waited for several days and didn't buy a single bottle!"

"Brother, please ask him to buy some for me later!"

Xie Mingjue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I'm a grown man, and I'm asking people to buy perfume? Is that appropriate?"

Xie Mingyue didn't care and pulled Xie Mingjue's sleeve hard!

"I don't care, you have to help me ask!"

The guests who came later also heard it and covered their mouths with their hands and chuckled.

Xie Mingjue and Yu Jinzhi looked at each other and smiled, saying helplessly.

"Okay, okay, I'll go ask later, that should be fine!"

Xie Mingyue was happy! She happened to see a noble lady she knew. She said hello to Xie Mingjue and left.

"Or, I'll go with Brother Xie!" Yu Jinzhi smiled.

The two went to find Qiu Mobai together.

"I guess Her Royal Highness the Princess invited Mr. Qiu because she was attracted by his wide range of goods!" someone said with a smile.
