Qian Jingshu sat down next to Queen Mother Fengluan and said calmly, "Grandmother is waiting for me?"
Queen Mother Fengluan's unfathomable gaze still fell on her face, "You came to see me, but do you have something to say?"
Qian Jingshu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "As expected, nothing can be hidden from the Imperial Grandmother. It seems that there is no need for me to tell you anymore."
Queen Mother Fengluan still looked at her with a probing gaze, "It was not until today when I came to meet the winners of the selection of the emperor's husband that my men found out that Murong Jiu and the man who fought in the competition were living in the place arranged by Xueqing."
Qian Jingshu asked, "But what about the house on Chengnan Street?"
She remembered the servants in that mansion. They were deaf, dumb and illiterate. Even if the Empress Dowager found out...
Just as she thought of this, the Queen Mother clapped her hands lightly.
A hunchbacked, middle-aged man who looked extremely honest walked out.
Qian Jingshu also had a photographic memory and recognized him almost immediately. This man was the male servant who had served Qiang Qian Xueqing in her mansion in the south of the city for several years and was deeply trusted by Qian Xueqing.
The Queen Mother waved her hand again, "You go down first and continue to serve Xue Qing."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." The deaf-mute middle-aged man, who couldn't speak and shouldn't have heard anything, took his leave in a hoarse and respectful voice.
"No matter who you are, you have someone from my family by your side." Empress Dowager Fengluan continued to look at Qian Jingshu calmly.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have lost his composure and would have been thinking about who was the most suspicious around him and what inappropriate things he had said or done.
However, Qian Jingshu just smiled and said, "It is our blessing that the Royal Grandmother cares about us so much."
Presumably, the Empress Dowager must have "heard" from someone who cared about the fact that Ling Jing, the Princess Regent of Dajing, looked somewhat similar to Qian Jingshu.
That’s good.
As usual, he pleaded for Qian Xueqing, "Grandmother, please don't blame Sister Xueqing. I think she, like me, only found out about Murong Jiu's participation in the Imperial Husband Selection Competition after yesterday's competition."
Queen Mother Fengluan spoke without telling whether she was happy or angry, "Murong Jiu, or should I say, Princess Regent of Dajing... Ling Jing?"
He laughed contemptuously and continued, "I have been in Fengluan for a long time, but I didn't know that the Empress of Fengluan had such a deep relationship with the royal family of another country."
Qian Jingshu frowned slightly, "Grandmother, since you already know her identity, why are you still..."
"Did you choose her to be the 'imperial husband'? Shu'er, you really can't figure it out?" The Queen Mother placed her hand on Qian Jingshu's head and gently touched her head. "I thought that Shu'er, you understand me best and are the child who is most like me. You should know that what I did is just like you helped the Regent Princess of Dajing win yesterday."
Qian Jingshu is not afraid of the Queen Mother at all.
Those who are favored are fearless.
"My royal grandmother forgives me..."
The Queen Mother stroked her hair gently. "What did you do wrong that you want me to forgive? You did very well."
Qian Jingshu lowered her eyes slightly.
Hiding the slight smile in his eyes.
Of course it was well done. If Ling Jing had been exposed in the competition yesterday, then there would be nothing to watch. If it was revealed at the coronation ceremony of the empress tomorrow, it would be different.
Kill two birds with one stone.
The Royal Grandmother had the same plan, and she only fulfilled Ling Jing's wish today. Of course, I am the child who looks most like the Royal Grandmother, haha.
Let’s talk about Baili Feiyue and Empress Qian Qingwu.
Qian Qingwu slightly distanced herself from Baili Feiyue, and her soft hands caressed the unfamiliar face of Baili Feiyue, "Jing'er, let me see what you look like now."
Tonight is different from that day. There is enough time and she finally has time to see her Jing'er.
Since Jing'er has come this far, she has already been the center of attention.
No matter if it’s someone else or the Queen Mother.
That's why she simply chose Jing'er. At least she felt more at ease being with her.
When Qian Qingwu said this, Baili Feiyue paused for a moment, thinking of the state of her face. However, facing her mother's irresistible gaze of love, she quickly removed the makeup on her face.
Like all mothers who love their daughters, the first thing Qian Qingwu saw was the embarrassing dark marks left on Baili Feiyue's face by the "Red Skull" poison.
My eyes trembled with heartache, "Jing'er, what's going on?"
Baili Feiyue held her trembling hand that was caressing her cheek, "Before coming to Fengluan, I encountered some troubles. I was poisoned by someone. But it doesn't matter," she smiled brightly, "Mom, you know that my medical skills are very powerful now. It's no problem to detoxify this poison."
"It's just that I've been busy seeing my mother recently. The antidote for this poison requires a herb that's somewhere else. When I get that herb, this poison will be child's play."
Qian Qingwu obviously didn't believe it, and her eyes were wet with heartache. "Then tell me what herbs you need, and I'll find them for you."
Her trembling fingers touched the mysterious patterns under Baili Feiyue's left eye, which had been covered up until now, and although the scars could not be seen without careful observation, "Back then, they... really deserved to die!"
"Mother, I have already paid them back double the amount. I have already taken my revenge."
He pulled down Qian Qingwu's hands and squeezed them, then showed her a big, proud smile, "I look so much like my mother, even if I'm disfigured, I'm still a great beauty~!"
He added, "Besides, even if I can't cure the poison spot on my face, I still have my master. You can rest assured, mother."
This sentence successfully stopped Qian Qingwu's heartache, and her eyes fell on the mysterious and beautiful pattern under her left eye again, "Is your master the Holy Saint of the Western Region Holy Church?"
Baili Feiyue nodded.
Qian Qingwu was silent. She had known about this from the information Mu Yizi had found out before, but after confirming it from her daughter's mouth, the feeling in her heart was completely different.
Because Mu Yizi also found out another identity of the Holy Lord of the Western Region Holy Church.
If this person intends to get close to Jing'er, then if Jing'er really goes back to the master and asks him to detoxify her, will he hurt Jing'er?
"Jing'er..." Qian Qingwu spoke with some difficulty.
Baili Feiyue noticed it sensitively, "What's wrong, mother?"
"Your master... I'm afraid he has ulterior motives towards you. Try to stay away from him in the future. I'm afraid it will be very dangerous if you go back to him."
Baili Feiyue looked at her mother, very seriously, "Mom, do you know my master?"
"I don't know him, but he..."
Baili Feiyue looked more serious, "Mom, if it weren't for Master more than five years ago, Jiu'er and I would have been rotting bones on a mass grave. Master is indeed not a good person of high moral character, but he has always lived up to the title of Master to his daughter, his disciple."
Qian Qingwu looked at her with more tender eyes, and after a while, she sighed softly, "Jing'er, do you want to hear about your master's life experience?"
