Chapter 55 The Queen Wants to Grant Marriage to the Lu Family
The guard driving the carriage heard a "bang" in the carriage and thought something had happened, so he asked, "Is the master okay?"
"Nothing, I just bumped my head by accident," Fang Qianxue said, "Let's go to Shou'an Palace."
Since she was appointed as the female official in charge of the seal, she had to go to the palace to see the Qilin beast every two days, but the Queen Mother never summoned her.
Today, for some unknown reason, the Queen Mother suddenly summoned her into the palace.
The carriage started moving and a breeze blew in the curtains.
Fang Qianxue stroked the fat cat's fur and asked, "Why are you walking so fast? Aren't you afraid of getting hit by a car?"
"I have important news!" Maotuan shouted.
"What's the big news?"
"That fake one is pregnant, come and praise me!" Maotuan rubbed her hand proudly.
Fang Qianxue frowned: "Really?"
Last time, Lu Changqing said in front of everyone that he and Xu Miaoyan had no physical contact. Now that woman is pregnant. No wonder she behaved so badly in front of Qilin.
Fang Qianxue had heard from others that a cultivator's spiritual energy would decrease when she was pregnant.
"I heard what the katydid in Songshengju said, it's true!" Maotuan meowed loudly a few times, "Dried fish!"
Fang Qianxue casually took out a small jar from under the car seat and poured some dried fish onto the table: "Eat it."
When she learned that Xu Miaoyan was pregnant, she felt mixed emotions.
If she remembered correctly, Xu Miaoyan couldn't keep the baby because she had a miscarriage. Lu Changqing found a reason and forcibly chopped off the leg bones of Lu Qingyuan and Lu Qingyao. It was truly cruel.
She must divorce her husband and can't wait any longer.
Maotuan finished eating the dried fish and said while burping, "There's more... uh... there's more!"
"what else?"
"What kind of perfume did that fake send to the queen? It stinks, that perfume stinks!" Maotuan made a vomiting gesture.
"fragrant?"
"Kizard said it was called something like 'Wan Xin Xiang', and the Queen was very happy and wanted to... hiccup...grant a marriage." Maotuan spread out another paw, "Little dried fish!"
Fang Qianxue poured out a few dried fish thoughtfully.
Ever since she was appointed as the female official in charge of the seal, Chen and Lu Wanrou's attitude towards her has become much better. Both of them seemed to be on her side, calling her "Qianxue" and "Second Sister-in-law" affectionately.
In order to persuade her to accept Xu Miaoyan as soon as possible, Lu's mother Chen complained about Xu Miaoyan's faults in front of her all day long, saying that Lu Changqing was blind and that she had turned down the wedding banquet at Sihai Restaurant and that at most Xu could be Lu Changqing's concubine.
But since it was an arranged marriage, she could not be a concubine, Fang Qianxue knew it in her heart.
"Xuexue...hiccup...don't be sad," Maotuan wiped his mouth on her robe, "you still have me!"
"Okay, when you're full, continue to go and get some information." Fang Qianxue let it get out of the car and quickly used a small incense burner to smoke away the fishy smell on her clothes.
After arriving at Shou'an Palace, Fang Qianxue was surprised to find that King Beining was also there.
The man was enjoying the flowers in the garden pavilion with a young girl. The girl was dressed in rich clothes and had a bright face. She jumped around as lively as a little deer.
Xiao Mingzhe saw Fang Qianxue following He Qiong into the yard. He stood up and seemed to want to walk over, but was stopped by the girl in yellow.
The girl took his arm affectionately, and Xiao Mingzhe sat down again.
"Lord Fang is looking at the Nineteenth Prince?" He Qiong turned around and glanced at her.
"Just curious."
He Qiong had an expression that showed he saw through everything, and smiled slightly, "That's the Princess of Yi'an County. Haven't you seen her before?"
"Ah, is it her?" Fang Qianxue had a vague impression.
The eldest princess Xiao Mingjie gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son was the good-for-nothing Lin Xingchen, and the daughter was the Yian County Lord Lin Baoyue. Fang Qianxue had met them both a few years ago, but at that time the Yian County Lord was only seven or eight years old and could not recognize her at all.
Empress Dowager Liu was in the small Buddhist temple in the side hall, holding a string of Buddhist beads and counting them very quickly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Fang has arrived."
"Qianxue greets the Queen Mother." Fang Qianxue knelt down and saluted.
Empress Dowager Liu opened her eyes, smiled and waved her hand: "You go down, I will have a few words with Lord Fang."
"Yes." He Qiong understood and led several palace maids and eunuchs to retreat.
"Qianxue," Empress Dowager Liu said in a very kind tone, but she did not let anyone take a seat. "You are Mingjie's adopted daughter, and I treat you like my granddaughter."
"Qianxue thanks the Queen Mother."
"I heard that Lu Changqing wants to marry another wife. Qianxue, if you have any grievances, you can tell me." Empress Dowager Liu slowed down her movements of turning the Buddhist beads. "I will definitely help you."
Fang Qianxue pondered the meaning of the old queen's words and did not dare to speak carelessly.
"You don't know yet, do you?" The Queen Mother tilted her head and looked at her with sympathy. "The Queen has decided to grant Lu Changqing and Xu Miaoyan a marriage. Your life in the Lu family will be even more difficult in the future."
