Chapter 261 Not a Princess? Qin Mingyue Explodes
Cining Palace.
Emperor Minghe and the Empress Dowager sat at the top, and the others sat on their left and right.
When Gu Qingning came in with Concubine Rou, they saw that Lu Jingyu and Duke Qin had already arrived.
Everyone in this house is our family.
No, there is another protagonist who has not appeared yet.
Qin Mingyue hasn't had a good time these days.
It was only after she returned to her princess residence that she learned that something had happened between Concubine Su and the Third Prince.
They are actually planning a rebellion?
Qin Mingyue was so scared that she dared not go anywhere and just stayed in her own princess mansion.
He was afraid that their rebellion would implicate him.
The only thing that comforted her was that her husband He Ming was still staying in the princess's mansion.
He was also very gentle and considerate to herself.
He reflected deeply and said that he had been wrong before, that he had been deceived by Xu Nian and framed by others.
Only then did I realize that Qin Mingyue was his favorite.
The two have been married for many years, but this is the first time they open their hearts to each other like this.
Qin Mingyue already liked He Ming, so she quickly forgave him for what he had done before, and their feelings for each other grew stronger.
But at the critical moment, He Ming pushed Qin Mingyue away.
After Qin Mingyue's repeated questioning, she learned that He Ming was injured and would not be able to move.
He Ming said that it was Chen Shu who hurt him.
Qin Mingyue hated Chen Shu so much at that moment and finally understood why the other party left without saying goodbye.
It turned out that it was because He Ming was injured!
Qin Mingyue comforted He Ming in various ways and said that she would definitely avenge him.
Qin Mingyue was summoned by her father today. She felt better thinking that she would finally regain her former honor and favor.
But as soon as I came in, I saw Gu Qingning sitting next to Concubine Rou.
The two of them were very intimate.
Qin Mingyue was immediately furious.
She first paid her respects to Emperor Minghe and the Empress Dowager, and then came to Concubine Rou.
Pointing at Gu Qingning.
"Gu Qingning, shouldn't you go to your husband Lu Jingyu?"
"Don't think that just because you are my mother's adopted daughter, you should stick to her all the time. She has her own biological daughter!"
As soon as Qin Mingyue's fierce words came out, the expressions of all those present who knew the truth were very complicated.
Gu Qingning: "You are right, I should stand beside my husband."
She patted Concubine Rou's hand, then walked over to Lu Jingyu.
A palace servant immediately brought a chair over.
Qin Mingyue was proud. She sat in Gu Qingning's previous seat and then acted coquettishly towards Concubine Rou.
"Mother, you are really something. How come you always forget your biological daughter after having an adopted daughter?"
No matter how good-tempered Concubine Rou was, she couldn't help it at this moment.
She asked back: "Are you really my biological daughter?"
Qin Mingyue's eyes widened, "Mother, what are you talking about? I am the daughter you gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy!"
"Oh, I see. Did Gu Qingning whisper some nonsense in your ear?"
Thinking of this, she raised her head and glared at Gu Qingning:
"Gu Qingning, you are so bold that you actually lied to my mother and said that I am not her biological child. What is your intention?"
Lu Jingyu couldn't stand Qin Mingyue making such a fuss anymore, so he protected Gu Qingning behind him.
But his eyes were directed towards Emperor Minghe who was sitting at the top.
"Tell her the truth, or she will continue to act like a spoiled brat."
Qin Mingyue widened her eyes, but this time she was glaring at Lu Jingyu.
"Lu Jingyu, who are you calling a tantrum? I am the current princess, and you are just a son of a duke, with some military merits. What right do you have to…"
“That’s enough!”
Emperor Minghe slammed the table so hard that Qin Mingyue was frightened and stopped talking immediately.
She said aggrievedly: "Father, please don't be mean to me."
"If you want to blame someone, blame Lu Jingyu and his wife for spreading rumors. They even dared to say in front of you that I am not my mother's daughter."
Emperor Minghe: "You are indeed not Concubine Rou's daughter."
"Back then, after Concubine Rou gave birth to Jing Yu, Su Tanxin became jealous and took her cousin's newborn baby and replaced it with Jing Yu."
"So, Jingyu is my son. And you are the eldest daughter of Duke Qin."
Qin Mingyue was stunned. She turned around and hugged Concubine Rou's arm.
"Mother, what Father said is not true, right?"
Concubine Rou pulled her arm back little by little and said:
"Your Majesty, everything you said is true. These are all confessed by Su Tanxin and the others."
"We have also done a blood test with you before."
"If you don't believe me, Duke Qin is here today and you two can do another blood test to prove your relationship."
Qin Mingyue resisted the blood test.
She kept shaking her head violently.
"Father, Mother, I am your daughter!"
"You have always loved me since I was a child!"
"And Grandmother, don't you love Mingyue the most? Please speak quickly, I am the daughter of my father and mother!"
Gu Qingning subconsciously raised her head and looked at the empress dowager who was sitting at the top.
She had always heard that the Queen Mother doted on Qin Mingyue extremely.
Qin Mingyue developed a spoiled personality due to being favored.
If the Queen Mother spoke for Qin Mingyue at this time, perhaps Qin Mingyue could be guaranteed wealth and glory in the future.
But when Gu Qingning went to see the empress dowager, she was looking down, picking up the teacup and taking a sip, looking as if she was staying out of the matter.
When she put down the teacup, she actually looked at Gu Qingning.
Gu Qingning met her gaze, but remained calm and looked away very calmly.
At this time, Emperor Minghe had lost his patience.
Eunuch Shun, who was standing nearby, immediately stepped forward and, together with two strong women, forcefully took Qin Mingyue's blood.
Duke Qin, who was standing nearby, also took a drop of blood with mixed feelings.
The two drops of blood quickly merged together.
"No, this is not true, this is absolutely not true!" Qin Mingyue's legs went limp and she fell to the ground.
Duke Qin reached out to pull her.
She suddenly opened Duke Qin's hand.
Qin Mingyue was in tears and she begged Concubine Rou, who was closest to her.
Holding Concubine Rou's legs.
"Mother, none of this is true! I am your daughter!"
"Haven't you always wanted me to honor you and be close to you?"
"I promise that I will be a good boy, respect you well, and listen to you the most in the future."
"OK?"
Concubine Rou pursed her lips and said nothing.
But Qin Mingyue knew that she could not ask for help from her father or the Empress Dowager at the moment.
Among all the people present, only Concubine Rou has the softest heart!
Qin Mingyue begged desperately, "Mother, even if I'm really not your daughter anymore, can you recognize me as your adopted daughter?"
"You are the kindest and have the softest heart!"
"You were able to adopt Gu Qingning's orphan girl as your adopted daughter, so you can also adopt me, right?"
Originally, Concubine Rou was a little soft-hearted.
Seeing Qin Mingyue crying like this, she felt pity.
However, just when I heard Qin Mingyue say that 'I can adopt Gu Qingning, the orphan from a poor family' as my adopted daughter.
Concubine Rou frowned slightly:
"Mingyue, how did Qingning offend you? Why do you still want to slander her at this time?"
"Besides, it's not a bad thing to just let you and Jing Yu swap back and become the daughter of the Duke's Mansion."
In other words, the daughter of a Duke's mansion has wealth and splendor that ordinary people can never achieve.
As Concubine Rou was talking, she came to her senses.
It was just about switching the two people, and Qin Mingyue wasn't killed, so why was she so excited?
In fact, the other people present all knew everything.
What could be the reason?
It’s just that Qin Mingyue is reluctant to give up the wealth and glory of being a princess.
But if I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?
After seeing that everyone refused, Qin Mingyue simply closed her eyes and fainted.
When Concubine Rou saw this, she immediately stood up nervously.
"Call the doctor!"
Someone immediately went to call the imperial physician.
Gu Qingning stood up and said, "I know a little bit about medicine, I'll help her."
As she spoke, she had already come to Qin Mingyue, who was being helped into a chair, and took her pulse.
Qin Mingyue: “…”
Gu Qingning could see that Qin Mingyue was pretending, her pulse was healthier than that of a healthy person.
Especially when he was taking her pulse, her eyelids trembled slightly.
Gu Qingning quickly understood Qin Mingyue's intention.
That is to pretend to be unconscious and stay in the palace first. Then think of a way to make Concubine Rou and others soften their hearts.
After all, at a certain moment just now, even Gu Qingning felt that Concubine Rou had softened her heart.
Even when she saw Qin Mingyue faint, the Queen Mother stood up subconsciously.
Gu Qingning let go of Qin Mingyue's hand and said, "Qin Mingyue just fainted due to anger. It's nothing serious. She will be fine after a good night's sleep."
Hearing her say this, Concubine Rou breathed a sigh of relief.
Concubine Rou asked, "Can she move in this state?"
Gu Qingning: "Sure, no problem."
Concubine Rou nodded. She was really afraid of Qin Mingyue.
And today, she wants to have a good reunion with her son and daughter-in-law.
Concubine Rou looked at Emperor Minghe and said, "Your Majesty, let Duke Qin take Mingyue back to the palace first."
Emperor Minghe looked at Duke Qin, who had a complicated expression and a tightly furrowed brow.
"Lord Lu, please take Mingyue back to the mansion first. It's a good opportunity for you to explain this matter to your family members."
"yes."
"By the way, Mingyue is no longer suitable to live in the princess's mansion. But considering our past friendship, when she wakes up, you can help her pack up her belongings and take them away, and then seal up the princess's mansion."
Duke Qin naturally had no choice but to respond.
Qin Mingyue, who was lying on the armchair and pretending to be faint, almost jumped up on the spot!
Where does she have any property?
The property that was taken away by He Ming and Xu Nian has never been recovered.
She asked He Ming, and He Ming said he was in Chen Shuo.
But the point now is, she doesn’t know where Chen Shuo has gone!
The princess’s mansion is now just an empty shell!
When Qin Mingyue thought of this, she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to open her eyes, but her wrist was grabbed by Gu Qingning beside her.
Gu Qingning leaned close to Qin Mingyue's ear and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"If you don't pretend to be unconscious now, then you are deceiving the emperor. Qin Mingyue, do you really have to continue to provoke His Majesty and the others at this time?"
Qin Mingyue: “…”
