Chapter 168 Live version of the story
Seeing Qin Xing walking towards her, the cousin straightened her clothes, looked at them again and again, and was very satisfied with her outfit today. She thought that her cousin would definitely like her outfit today.
She smiled complacently, and seeing Qin Xing getting closer, she pretended to be weak, gently stroking her forehead, and when Qin Xing got closer, she tried to fall on him: "Cousin~"
Unexpectedly, Qin Xing saw through her thoughts and turned around and walked away when he passed by her.
Seeing his master like this, the servant standing by naturally didn't dare to go up to help.
The cousin fell to the ground alive.
Qin Xing walked inside without looking back, and the servant felt very happy.
I don't know what kind of cousin this is. She insists on staying in the princess's mansion and causing trouble for the princess and her husband.
Although this servant had been following Qin Xing in the past, he also knew that although the Qin family was extremely wealthy, they were nothing more than a family of merchants. Among the four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants have always been the most despised.
However, the eldest princess did not despise Qin Xing's family background, she only said that she was attracted by Qin Xing's noble character.
Ever since the princess married, the Qin family has finally stood up in the capital, and now people in the capital look up to the Qin family.
The princess and her husband lived in harmony with each other. In recent years, they had only had an argument once because of this cousin.
Thinking of this, he became even angrier, so he turned around to look at the woman behind him, secretly said "Pooh", and then jogged a few steps to catch up with his master.
But the cousin behind me just stood there in a daze.
My mother said that the princess is an extremely powerful person, so how could she be wronged? My cousin must have suffered a lot of grievances in the mansion on weekdays. As long as I take advantage of the opportunity and sneak in, my cousin will definitely like me.
But this is different from what my mother said!
Before Qin Xing entered the inner room, the eldest princess was happily sharing the events of the past few days with Song Qingyan. However, the moment she saw Qin Xing, her face suddenly darkened.
When Song Qingyan saw this, she knew that she would have to resolve the matter herself.
He immediately sent all the servants away, leaving only the three of them in the room.
No, there are four people, including Lu Xingwan.
【Let’s get started! 】
Lu Xingwan is full of joy.
Lu Xingwan's words startled Song Qingyan, and then she suppressed her laughter and asked, "What happened to the two of you?"
The eldest princess said nothing.
Song Qingyan looked at Qin Xing again. Qin Xing was a thin-skinned man after all. He could not stand Song Qingyan's gaze and knelt down: "My Lady, Qin Xing is wrong."
Seeing him like this, the princess softened her heart and turned around and said, "Why are you kneeling? It's not your fault!"
"Stop!" Song Qingyan suddenly realized that the two of them were being too noisy, so she had to stop them and pointed at Qin Xing, "Stand up, sit down and talk."
Qin Xing also more or less understood the character of the Imperial Concubine, so he did not refuse and sat back: "The one outside is my distant cousin, named Wang Ruo. She came to me for shelter half a month ago, saying that her family was in trouble and she had nowhere to take refuge, so she came to the capital."
"I originally refused and told her to go look for the Qin family, but the Queen knew that Xingruo was hospitable and kind-hearted, so she said that since my cousin had come to find me, she should stay in the Princess's mansion."
"I thought Wang Ruo was not a bad person, so I listened to Xing Ruo and kept her in the mansion."
"But Wang Ruo had bad intentions. He repeatedly broke into my study room and tried...tried to seduce me."
Having said this, Qin Xing stopped talking and just lowered his head without saying anything.
"And then?"
【And then? 】
Song Qingyan and Lu Xingwan, mother and daughter, spoke at the same time. Of course, in reality, only Song Qingyan spoke.
"Then Xing Ruo misunderstood."
Lu Xingruo was even more annoyed when he heard this and turned around abruptly: "That's easy for you to say!"
Qin Xing hurriedly stepped forward and supported Lu Xingruo: "You can annoy me as much as you want, but don't hurt yourself."
Thanks to Qin Xing's care, Lu Xingruo suddenly burst into tears, but she suppressed her tears and refused to make any sound.
Qin Xing felt even more distressed when he saw this. He held Lu Xingruo in his arms and let her tears soak his clothes.
Song Qingyan was a little embarrassed.
Lu Xingwan was different, he looked contented and happy.
[Tsk, tsk, tsk, isn't this a live version of a storybook? A love story between a man and a woman, either poignant or harmonious.]
[Oh my, so enviable! ]
[The next step will be kissing! 】
Lu Xingwan's big, twinkling eyes were full of anticipation.
Song Qingyan was frightened by her words. They wouldn't really kiss, would they? They should still remember that she was here, right?
Fortunately, they still remembered that someone was there.
Lu Xingruo cried enough, then she pushed Qin Xing away and looked at Song Qingyan: "I know how difficult it is to be a prince consort. Ordinary families have concubines and maids, but because Qin Xing is married to a princess, he cannot have a concubine."
"I thought that since I am not feeling well now, I might as well quietly arrange a room for him."
"But he refused, and continued to flirt with Wang Ruo."
"I didn't! Xing Ruo, believe me!" Qin Xing suddenly became anxious, "I know I was a little too indecisive. Now I have arranged a place for Wang Ruo, and I will send her away tonight."
"Send her away?" Song Qingyan was dissatisfied. She didn't think she was a good person. This woman's thoughts were a contempt for the royal authority. If this matter were to reach the ears of the Emperor of Great Chu, not to mention this cousin's family, even the Qin family would be implicated.
How can I get rid of it?
But what is more important now is to educate Xing Ruo.
"Xingruo, let me ask you, does the Dingguo Marquis have concubines?" Song Qingyan looked at the eldest princess very seriously.
Lu Xingruo shook his head in confusion.
"Ordinary families can do without concubines. Today, I am not afraid of offending Qin Xing. Since he has chosen Princess Shang, he must give up something."
"Besides, you two love each other, why would you mention taking a concubine? Wouldn't that just create some discord between you two?"
Then he turned to look at Qin Xing: "Since you don't want it, then tell Xing Ruo clearly that you only want to be together for the rest of your life, and live your life as husband and wife. If you can't even speak vaguely, then what's the point of talking about heart-to-heart talks?"
After Song Qingyan finished speaking, Lu Xingruo and Qin Xing were both silent.
Without waiting for the two of them to say anything, Song Qingyan ordered Jinyu outside the door: "Jinyu, call Wang Ruo in."
"Wang Ruo?" Jinyu muttered. Where is Wang Ruo? She looked up and saw the pretentious woman at the gate, and suddenly realized.
Then he stepped forward with a cold face: "The Queen is calling you in."
Wang Ruo suddenly had a strange thought. Could it be that her cousin really wanted to marry her and even talked to the eldest princess about it in front of the Royal Concubine?
Have I really caught my cousin's eye?
