Chapter 799 Meeting
Prince Qiong stayed in the palace for such a long time and hardly came out.
But today he finally found the whereabouts of Mrs. Chen.
Yun Shu went back and told him what happened in the Medicine Alliance two days ago. She also showed him an embroidered lantern. He recognized it and thought it must be the work of Madam Chen.
Jinyue Embroidery Shop is a shop under the name of Prince Xiao’s Mansion.
It was after Mrs. Chen inquired about this that she chose Jinyue Embroidery Shop.
She brought Chen Haobing into the embroidery shop, and the shopkeeper welcomed them upstairs.
"Please sit down and have some tea first. Someone has taken a fancy to your embroidery and wants to come over to talk to you in person. He will be here soon," said the shopkeeper.
"Isn't it Madam Jia?"
The nephew of Old Madam Jia is a marquis, a relationship that Madam Chen had accidentally met in the past two days. She originally thought that she would meet Old Madam Jia when she came here.
Because a maid had said before that their old lady would come to the embroidery shop in person today.
Why doesn’t it sound like that now?
The shopkeeper didn't say much, just asked them to wait and left.
After a while, Mrs. Chen and the others heard footsteps, and someone outside said, "Stay here and guard."
"yes."
Someone responded.
The man who spoke walked into the room, looked at the mother and daughter, and then closed the door.
When Mrs. Chen saw him, she stood up suddenly and then froze.
"mother?"
Chen Haobing was startled by her and stood up as well, looking at the person who came.
She also felt that this person looked familiar.
The man was about forty years old, of medium build, but with handsome features. He looked like this now in middle age, but he would have been considered a handsome man when he was young.
The person who came was King Qiong.
Prince Qiong stood in front of the mother and daughter, glanced at Madam Chen, and then shifted his gaze to Chen Haobing.
He looked at Chen Haobing and smiled to himself.
"This prince has good offspring, and his daughters are all good looking."
Mrs. Chen's hands were shaking.
"Why are you here?" She took a deep breath.
It seems that the maidservant beside Old Madam Jia was sent by him. No one was willing to pay a large sum of money to buy her embroidery. She also said that if the old lady took a fancy to it, she would ask all the ladies in the mansion to come and talk to her, and maybe they could even place an order for a large batch from her.
It's just a lie.
"It's been many years since we last met, Ah Xiang. Are you not happy to see me?" King Qiong said to her. He walked to the chair next to him and sat down. He pressed his hand towards the two of them and said, "Sit down. Why are you standing?"
"Mom, who is he?" Chen Haobing's voice was also trembling.
She had some guesses in her mind, but she couldn't believe it.
"Haobing, don't you recognize your father? I held you a lot when you were little."
"You're talking nonsense, my father has a beard—" Chen Haobing's face turned pale.
"Yes, I used to have a beard," King Qiong touched his chin, "but as I got older, I found it a nuisance, so I shaved it off."
Is this really her father?
But he just called himself the King?
"My father is in Dahe—" She still didn't believe it.
"What is Dahe? That is obviously Qiongzhou Prefecture. Later, your mother took you to Dahe. When you were a child, you lived in Qiongzhou Prefecture."
"Are you King Qiong?!" Chen Haobing screamed out.
"You didn't tell your daughter about my identity?" King Qiong looked at Madam Chen and raised his eyebrows. "Why, am I so ashamed to be seen?"
Mrs. Chen kept her mouth shut and didn't want to talk at all.
"Mom, say something." Chen Haobing now looked at King Qiong carefully and vaguely regained a sense of familiarity.
Her father never mentioned her identity before, but she didn't look like this now. Is there such a big difference between having a beard and not having a beard?
But that sense of familiarity is very clear.
The voice, the expression, the eyes, it seemed like he was indeed her father.
Her father is not some wealthy gentleman, but the Prince of Qiong? If it is the Prince of Qiong, why can't they stay in the Prince of Qiong's mansion?
Is Princess Qiong so intolerant?
"He is indeed your father." Mrs. Chen said this a little weakly. "He is also the King of Qiong."
"I am the daughter of King Joan—"
Chen Haobing sat down, surprised and happy.
No matter what happened in the past, at this moment, she suddenly had such an identity, which made her feel at ease.
She is the prince's daughter, her status is not low!
She is the daughter of King Qiong, so why does she need to rely on Dong Huanzhi to break into the circle of noble ladies in the capital?
As long as she reveals her identity, those people should come to curry favor with her, right? !
Princess Qiong would never run here from Qiongzhou Prefecture to hunt them down!
"Dad, did you come here specifically to find us?" Chen Haobing immediately looked at King Qiong and asked.
The fact that she called out "Dad" so easily made King Qiong raise his eyebrows again.
"I guess so. Back then, I told your mother to find a place to hide your identity for a few years, and when the time is right, I will come to pick you up. But she insisted on taking you away. I have been looking for you for three years."
King Qiong looked at Madam Chen, "Why are you running?"
"Why do you say I'm running? Can Princess Qiong tolerate us, mother and daughter?"
"She didn't send anyone to hunt you down anymore, but you still haven't shown up. I heard that you found a man?"
Is he being cheated on?
