Aunt Deng took a deep breath and said, "But...but why is this happening?"
Li Qingluo: "Perhaps I didn't understand it before. But after learning about my grandmother's Tianfeng Trading Company yesterday, I have some guesses."
"The old man of the Qu family is the Minister of Revenue. He controls the treasury of the country and is familiar with the entire Daliang economy. How could he not know about the existence of Tianfeng Trading Company?"
"Li Chaojing forced my grandmother to death because he wanted her money. Why is it not the same for the Qu family?"
Aunt Deng's eyes widened. "You, you're saying that the Qu family covets...are they...wanting to eat shit?!? My old lady's things, do they dare to covet them?!"
Li Qingluo: "Don't get upset. I'm just guessing."
"My reputation has been damaged by Liu Qingzhu, and the Zhongyi Marquis's Mansion has abandoned the engagement. Originally, no family in Jinling City would have considered me as a suitable match. But the Qu family is different."
"They persuaded my mother to make Mrs. Qu think this was a good marriage."
"Ms. Qu thought the Qu family was willing to marry me out of her respect, but why didn't she see what the Qu family had thrown out?"
"That Xun brother has such a lewd look in his eyes that he wants to stick to me. He's not even as tall as me. I want to vomit at the sight of such a person!"
"I can't even look down on you, let alone my grandmother?"
"On the day of the palace banquet, Madam He from the Qu family seemed to be a kind and respectful person, but what good things could the Qu family have?"
"Grandmother's repeated and clear rejections must have angered the Qu family. That's why they resorted to these insidious and disgusting things to harm Grandmother behind her back!"
"My mother is a fool. She probably thinks that all she did was just for my marriage, but I'm afraid she doesn't quite understand what the Qu family is planning."
"But whether it's poisoning my grandmother or wanting me to marry into the Qu family, it must be related to Tianfeng Trading Company!"
However, these are just Li Qingluo's inferences and guesses.
No matter what the truth is, she will definitely get to the bottom of it!
As for the Qu family, they can no longer stay!
For the crime of poisoning her mother-in-law, she deserves death even if she is whipped a hundred times!
But before she dies, her crimes should be made known to the world so that people can see what disgusting things she has done.
An idea came to Li Qingluo's mind.
"There's a move, and it's time for us to move."
"Mammy, let's go out tomorrow and let Sui'er come to see me."
Just after finishing talking to Aunt Deng, Que'er knocked on the door and came in.
"Miss, it's His Royal Highness Prince Su who's here. He asked you to come over if you have time."
Li Qingluo stood up immediately. Prince Su had once again shown her great kindness by saving her grandmother. Even though she had fallen asleep, she had to get up and go there.
Li Qingluo put on a cloak and went to the main courtyard of Prince Su.
At the gate of the courtyard, several young maids rushed forward to greet her.
Li Qingluo greeted them politely.
In the past two days, she has learned some sign language from Ying'er and can understand some simple gestures.
The mute slave brought her into the house.
She saw Prince Su eating pot?
Li Qingluo was just beginning to wonder when Duan Rongshi looked up at her and said through layers of smoke, "I bought this from your Zhenxiu Restaurant. Do you want to eat it together?"
Have dinner with Prince Su?
Li Qingluo doesn't have the courage to do that.
But she still stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, I have already eaten. How about I serve you some food?"
Duan Rongshi did not refuse and nodded slowly.
Li Qingluo willingly blanched the vegetables and meat for him, and then put them on his plate one by one.
Duan Rongshi took a bite of the fresh lamb she had just prepared.
Sure enough, it is much fresher and more refreshing than the cold perm ones.
Duan Rongshi ate one mouthful after another, and he ate as much as Li Qingluo boiled.
It wasn't until he couldn't eat anymore that he grabbed her wrist.
"I am full."
As soon as he finished speaking, the mute slaves outside the door came in one after another.
They began to methodically help him wash his hands and rinse his mouth, change his outer robe, remove the odor, and even re-comb his hair!!
Everything was thoughtful and meticulous, exquisite yet elegant, which stunned Li Qingluo, who had already lived a good life for several months.
Then after these delicate tasks were completed, the table had already been cleaned and the whole room was filled with incense. How could there be any trace of the peculiar smell of the pot?
Li Qingluo saw this smooth and flowing service and thought to himself: He is indeed a precious prince, the only thing missing is that he is fed by his own hands.
Speaking of feeding, she suddenly remembered that he had eaten persimmons with her hands before.
Doesn't that count as feeding him?
When she thought of the word "hello" again, Li Qingluo suddenly recalled some scenes that she shouldn't remember, and her cheeks instantly turned an uncomfortable blush.
Li Qingluo quickly shook his head and threw that memory back into the dusty corner.
"What are you still standing there for? Come here."
When Li Qingluo looked up again, Prince Su was already sitting on the couch by the window.
He knocked on the table and motioned her over.
Li Qingluo walked over and saw a chess set on the low table. Her eyes widened instantly.
"Can you play chess?"
Prince Su asked her.
Li Qingluo quickly shook her head. "If Your Highness asked me if I could wield a sword, I could still offer a humble performance. But as for playing chess... I'm truly ignorant and haven't yet mastered the subtleties of it."
She is what she looks like.
I would never deliberately lie in front of him because of his identity.
Duan Rongshi curled the corners of his lips and said, "Sit down, I will teach you."
