Chapter 139 The Young Master's Intimacy
Shen Ruoying was already extremely jealous about this matter.
If she had not been married off in the first place, then the current third-rank lady, Princess Zhaoning, who recognized Concubine Rou as her adoptive mother, would be her!
After hearing Bi Yue's precise and heart-piercing words, Shen Ruoying's defense was instantly broken.
She rushed over and suddenly grabbed Biyue's neck!
"I make you laugh! I make you laugh!"
Bi Yue just wanted to say a few words to provoke Shen Ruoying, but who would have thought that the other party would suddenly go crazy?
And she didn't know why, but this man was so strong that she couldn't break free.
I'm about to roll my eyes at this!
It was Aunt Li who rushed over and persuaded Shen Ruoying: “Girl, it’s not worth it for a little bitch. She is a concubine in your yard. You can beat and scold her as you like. It’s not worth dirtying your hands and killing her.”
Not to mention, Bi Yue is injured and may have difficulty getting pregnant in the future.
There is no need to worry about such a concubine.
Finally, this man was sent by the Duke's wife. If he was really killed, it might offend the Duke's wife.
Beating a dog depends on its owner.
It must be said that Shen Ruoying gradually calmed down under Aunt Li's 'persuasion'.
Although he let go of her hand, he still slapped Biyue in the face.
Shen Ruoying glared at Biyue fiercely:
"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have the support of the Duke's wife. As long as I am your mistress, you will never be able to come to me again! If you do it again, I will sell you out!"
Bi Yue was also frightened, and she even forgot that her indenture was still in Feng's hands, and Shen Ruoying could not sell her out.
"Madam, I understand."
"You know it, but why don't you get out of here!"
After Bi Yue left, Shen Ruoying seemed to have lost all her strength, and fell into Aunt Li's arms, crying bitterly.
"Aunt, why is my life so bad? I missed the chance to become the wife of the young master, and I also missed the chance to become a princess!"
Aunt Li's eyes also turned red. She hugged her master and comforted him gently.
"The Duke's wife said that the eldest young master's wife is infertile. If she wants to adopt a son in the future, she will give priority to adopting one from our family."
Shen Ruoying's eyes lit up instantly, "Really?"
Aunt Li: "Of course it's true, because the Duke's wife is starting to choose a noble lady for the second young master. But no matter what, the eldest young master's wife can't give birth, which is a good thing for our family."
Shen Ruoying nodded, it was indeed a good thing.
So what if she, Gu Qingning, became a princess?
As a mistress without an heir, if Lu Jingyu shows mercy to her in the future, she will be able to keep this position, but she will also have to raise someone else's son.
Men will change their minds after a while, and the young master is no exception.
Furthermore, if the adopted son turns out to be unfilial, Gu Qingning will suffer in the future!
No, no, no, that's too far away.
Shen Ruoying decided to do something right now. She didn't want Gu Qingning to live so comfortably!
**
Gu Qingning, dressed in gorgeous attire, followed Eunuch Shun to Longyuan Palace in a dignified manner.
She was neither arrogant nor impatient, and her calm and composed appearance made Eunuch Shun, who was secretly observing her, nod his head involuntarily.
Gu Qingning naturally knew that Eunuch Shun was observing her, and this should be the intention of Emperor Minghe.
Emperor Minghe regards Lu Jingyu as his confidant, so he will naturally put more tests on the person beside him.
If she was really a vulgar woman, or if she was suspicious, or even a spy...
No matter how much Lu Jingyu cares about her, Emperor Minghe will eliminate the "spies" around Lu Jingyu.
Serving the king is like serving a tiger.
Ever since Gu Qingning and Lu Jingyu got married, this feeling has extended to Gu Qingning herself.
Or perhaps, after Lu Jingyu asked for this favor for Gu Qingning, Emperor Minghe paid too much attention to her and scrutinized her too much.
Gu Qingning stood straight, dignified and quiet from beginning to end.
Soon a voice broke the silence.
"Gu Qingning!" Princess Jiamin also came slowly with her mother Princess Anhua.
When Gu Qingning heard the voice, she bowed to Princess Anhua and her daughter.
Princess Jiamin snorted coldly, "Gu Qingning, you should be happy now, you are now my equal!"
Gu Qingning: "You are the real princess, and I am just a blessing from the young master."
Princess Jiamin stamped her feet in anger, "Are you still showing off to me?"
Everyone knows that the young master begged for mercy for Gu Qingning in front of His Majesty, which has made many noble ladies envious and jealous.
But compared to this, Princess Jiamin was more curious about something else.
She approached Gu Qingning and asked in a low voice: “By the way, you suddenly became a princess. Is Shen Ruoying going to be mad to death?”
Gu Qingning nodded.
Princess Jiamin said happily: "I think she deserves it. Who told her to swap marriages with you at that time? She must be regretting it!"
Gu Qingning smiled continuously and felt that Princess Jiamin was even more adorable.
When they arrived at the flower hall, they saw that there were already many people there.
Emperor Minghe, his concubines, and the Sixth Prince even saw the Ninth Prince sitting in a wheelchair...
Almost all the royal family members who were going to come to the royal palace this time have arrived, except Princess Jin'an who had a leg injury.
Gu Qingning was shocked to see so many royal family members at once, but she tried not to show any fear.
At this time, Lu Jingyu had already walked up to her and looked at Princess Jiamin next to her with a frown.
"Princess Jiamin, don't bully my wife, she is timid."
Princess Jiamin was immediately furious, "Lu Jingyu, when did I bully your wife? Which eye did you see it with?"
Gu Qingning also quickly pulled Lu Jingyu's sleeve and said, "Jingyu, the princess didn't bully me. She knew I was unfamiliar with this place, and she and the princess accompanied me in."
Lu Jingyu bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Princess, for taking care of my wife."
Princess Jiamin: "..."
After the greetings, Lu Jingyu took Gu Qingning to Emperor Minghe.
He whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid of them. No one in this house dares to hurt you at will. Just respect His Majesty."
"Oh, Concubine Rou will soon become your stepmother. She is a very nice person and will like you."
Gu Qingning also lowered her voice, "Why did you ask for this grace for me?"
Lu Jingyu didn't say anything. He looked at her deeply and reached out to help her straighten the messy hair behind her ears.
In public, Lu Jingyu's action was a bit too intimate.
Gu Qingning felt a little embarrassed and her cheeks were burning.
But she didn't say anything, knowing that Lu Jingyu must have his own reasons for suddenly doing this.
When Emperor Minghe and his concubine Roufei saw this scene, their eyes were filled with love.
The Sixth Prince's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help it. "I didn't expect that Jingyu and your wife have such a good relationship. No wonder you even used your own merits in saving the emperor to ask for mercy for your wife."
Lu Jingyu: “Yeah.”
The Sixth Prince: “…”
I'm so angry. Why does it feel like I'm punching cotton?
Lu Jingyu was already holding Gu Qingning's hand and came in front of Emperor Minghe, and they both knelt down together.
"I have met your Majesty. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."
Emperor Minghe smiled and said, "Hurry up, Qing Ning, come and serve tea to your stepmother. We are all family today. We will hold the ceremony to confer the title of Princess on you when we return to the capital."
"yes."
Gu Qingning took the tea handed over by Shun Gonggong, knelt in front of Concubine Rou, and said obediently: "Stepmother, please have some tea."
Concubine Rou looked at her gently. Just as she was about to reach out for the tea, she heard a coquettish voice.
"Ah, it has already started? Your Majesty, Sister Rou, why don't you wait for me?"
