Chapter 516 Villain
When Song Ruize left, Qin Huiyin was worried that Li Taohua would find out that they had slept in the same bed last night.
It was not until Zhilan came back and reported that Song Ruize had left quietly without disturbing anyone that she felt relieved and lay on the bed sighing.
“It’s not easy to fall in love.”
Zhilan and Sujin looked at each other and smiled.
"Although the Madam did not agree to your marriage immediately, she did not break you up. She just loves you too much and is unwilling to hand you over like this. I believe that as time goes by, the Madam will see Mr. Song's sincerity and naturally understand that the relationship between you is indestructible."
"From the perspective of brother and sister, Mr. Song is indeed very kind to Miss. But your relationship is different now, and it is normal for Madam to have other concerns."
"Of course my mother is the best, the best in the world. If it weren't for my mother, I would have died on the road to escape famine, and I wouldn't have the life I have now."
Li Taohua was about to push the door open, but when she heard Qin Huiyin's clear and sweet voice, she stopped and the anger on her face disappeared without a trace.
"My mother has suffered so much. She has suffered for most of her life. She has only had a good life in the past two years. All I can do is take good care of myself and not let her worry. Marriage is no joke. Many women regret it for the rest of their lives after taking a wrong step. My mother doesn't want me to take the wrong path and end up hurting both physically and mentally. In fact, she worries too much. I am her daughter, and I am not a love-brained person who only knows how to listen to men. I will naturally love the man who treats me well. I will make the man who treats me badly suffer."
"Miss, are you willing to let Mr. Song live a life worse than death?"
"He's good to me, so of course I can't bear to let him go. If he's also a scumbag, just wait and see how I deal with him and let him know that you can't just use force to deal with a man."
Li Taohua turned and left.
Ru Niang followed and said, "Madam, are you relieved now? Although the young lady is sentimental, she is not a fool."
"I just know that she values love and friendship, and I'm worried that she might make a mistake. If it's really like what she said, that would be great. Since ancient times, infatuated lovers always meet heartless people, and I'm afraid she will get hurt." Li Taohua looked at the slowly rising sun and murmured, "But, she is that man's child, she must be a blessed one, and she will never meet an unfaithful person."
At noon, Qin Huiyin was taking care of business matters in the Food City when she saw Xia Ruwan striding in.
"Why are you free to come here today?"
Qin Huiyin looked at Xia Ruwan with a smile, but when she saw the expression on her face, she stopped smiling, stood up and walked towards her.
"What's wrong?"
Xia Ruwan forced a smile and said, "I'm getting married."
"Is Master Li back?" Qin Huiyin pulled her to sit down. "Since you are getting married, why don't you look happy at all? Could it be that the Li family is making things difficult for you again?"
"It's not him." Xia Ruwan said, "The person I want to marry is not him."
"Who is that?" Qin Huiyin frowned.
"The current Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace." Xia Ruwan smiled and pretended to be happy, "I am just a merchant girl, but I entered the Eastern Palace and became a concubine. Isn't that amazing?"
"When did you become involved with the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace?" Qin Huiyin frowned.
"Ever since I became involved in business with the King of Wei, I have come into contact with him from time to time because of business and financial matters. The prince often went to the King of Wei's mansion, and I met him."
"So what if you met her? You and Master Li are in love with each other. It's impossible that you want to enter the East Palace and become one of the three thousand beauties just because you met the crown prince, right?"
No. Xia Ruwan didn't show any joy on her face, and she was even about to cry. She didn't do it voluntarily. What she just said hurt her heart.
"I'm sorry, Wan'er, I shouldn't have said that." Qin Huiyin hugged Xia Ruwan, "Tell me what's wrong first, what happened."
Xia Ruwan forced a bitter smile: "Actually, it's my own fault. If I had appeared less often in the Prince of Wei's mansion and hadn't been so aggressive, I wouldn't have attracted the attention of the Crown Prince of the East Palace. He wouldn't have thought that I was a good toy and wanted to take me into his pocket."
Shu Hui said, "The first time the young lady entered the Prince of Wei's mansion, a servant mistook the young lady for a dancer performing that day and flirted with her. The young lady stabbed the servant's eye with a hairpin and made a big fuss, asking the Prince of Wei to give her an explanation. This was a perfectly normal counterattack, but the prince took advantage of it."
Qin Huiyin frowned.
Xia Ruwan was not wrong.
If it was her, she would have made things worse.
The prince fell in love with her because, firstly, Xia Ruwan was beautiful, secondly, she was more lively than those lifeless ladies from aristocratic families, and thirdly, she had the ability to make money.
These people in power will not make an impulsive decision just because they are tempted for a moment. Who is the prince? The position of the prince's consort is still vacant, waiting for a price, so the position in his harem is not for everyone. The prince's concubine is not an ordinary concubine, she will also be a concubine in the future.
"The prince hasn't officially proposed yet, so you should quickly find Master Li and arrange the marriage." Qin Huiyin said.
"Why would a concubine need to be betrothed? Just send me to the mansion in a sedan chair. If he wants, he can carry me in tomorrow."
"The Crown Prince has not yet married a principal wife. If he takes a merchant girl as a concubine, the ministers he originally wanted to win over will probably not be happy."
"you mean……"
"I heard before that Cui Lingyao from the Prime Minister's Mansion is the best candidate for the Crown Princess. If she hears about this, she should be the one who is anxious, not us. Before she married into the East Palace, the Crown Prince has already chosen a concubine. If she is favored again and gives birth to a concubine, it will be disadvantageous to her. If we spread this news to her, she will definitely pester the Crown Prince, and then the Crown Prince will have no time to care about you. You can take this opportunity to call Master Li back to get married, and the matter will be settled."
"But..." Xia Ruwan hesitated.
"You should go far away and don't stay in the capital. Is that not enough?" Qin Huiyin said, "Or do you really want to enter the palace and become the prince's concubine?"
"No." Xia Ruwan shook her head, "I don't want to be the prince's woman."
"When will Master Li come back?" Qin Huiyin asked, "How about this, don't wait for him to come back, just go find him directly!"
"Yinyin, it's great to have you." Xia Ruwan hugged Qin Huiyin's arm. "I've been so worried these days that I couldn't eat or sleep. I thought I was really going to marry a nasty man. Now you've found another way for me. That's great."
"This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later." Qin Huiyin said, "Go back and pack your things and leave Beijing as soon as possible."
"I can't bear to leave you." Xia Ruwan hugged her tightly.
"Alright, then stay and become the prince's concubine!"
Xia Ruwan stood up and said to Qin Huiyin: "When the dog prince no longer misses me, I will come back to accompany you. I'm leaving now."
