Emperor Mingde didn't dare to say "consider the overall situation" directly. He tried to reason with Jiang Qianruo.
The main thing is, if he gets beaten by the Queen at his age, how can he face people in court tomorrow?
Wouldn’t that be a loss of dignity?
"Don't give me those big talk! I only know that I've brought the child back. If I walk around the capital without a proper identity, won't anyone bully me? As for what you said, maybe those people won't be able to control themselves when they see the child."
"The more they do, the more mistakes they make, which makes it easier for you to investigate."
"Those remnants of the previous dynasty have been hiding for so many years, not daring to show their faces easily. Now that we have this opportunity, we might as well give them a scare and expose their true colors. We must pave the way for our children before you and I die."
"As for this basket, I will quietly have someone check it out myself."
Jiang Qianruo's words were well-reasoned.
This basket should have been gathering dust in her storeroom in Yeonbok Palace, but unexpectedly it appeared before her eyes now. Perhaps, someone close to her back then had slipped through the net.
In any case, these were not reasons for Zhong Li Che to stop her.
She had only given birth to two children in her life, and she had already lost her son. If she couldn't even protect her daughter, how ridiculous would Jiang Qianruo's life be?
Emperor Mingde was also somewhat moved by what he said, but his rationality prevailed: "If you say that, aren't you using the child as bait?"
"You and I have so many guards, why not just give a few to the child? Could it be that the people you raise can't even protect their master in secret?"
Jiang Qianruo almost had the word "disdain" written on his face.
"But, what kind of character she has, what kind of temper she has, what kind of person she is, I haven't seen yet..."
Emperor Mingde had many concerns.
After all, this was not a child he raised and watched grow up by himself, so for him emotionally it was one thing, but rationally it was another.
"Then just go and see it!" Jiang Qianruo interrupted him impatiently.
In the final analysis, the reason was that the child had not grown up in front of the two of them, and Emperor Mingde was a little distrustful of him.
Since the child is not born after ten months of pregnancy, the man’s attitude towards the child is still a little worse.
Jiang Qianruo was also aware of these.
If she hadn't wanted to give her child an identity that allowed him to stand in front of others with dignity and honor, she wouldn't have put aside her past grudges and stood here again.
Before it was for my son, now it is for my daughter.
Seeing her attitude, Emperor Mingde not only did not get angry, but his expression relaxed a little: "Since you said so, I can't refuse you. Meet! I must meet! Everything will be discussed after I meet you."
"But didn't you say that he looks a lot like you? How similar? The eyes or the nose?..."
Old Huang looked at Emperor Mingde and felt that this man was almost wagging his tail, so he gritted his teeth.
How shameless!
——
After Ji Changying and the others chose a courtyard, they were helped by a group of pretty maids to take a hot bath, change into clean clothes, and have a doctor take their pulses before they sat together to eat and rest.
When she woke up from her sleep, feeling refreshed and ready to get dressed, the maid waiting outside noticed immediately and called someone in to serve her in an orderly manner.
From getting dressed and putting on shoes to washing her face and tying her hair, Ji Changying didn't lift a finger the whole time.
this···
To be honest, looking at the clothes brought in by the maid, Ji Changying had no idea where to start, so she just went with the flow and let the maid help her put them on.
At first, I felt a little uncomfortable being served, but after the whole process, I have to say, she smells really good!
A group of beautiful sisters surround you, speaking softly and moving gently, taking care of you and being pleasing to the eye. Who can resist this?
"Who prepared these clothes?"
Unexpectedly, the clothes fit him well after he put them on. Ji Changying couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Yanyun smiled at Ji Changying and said, "Madam wrote back a month ago and ordered people to prepare this. She prepared a box of clothes for each season, just waiting for the young master and the little master to wear when they come back!"
"Young Master, Young Master?"
"Yes!"
Fei Shuang, who was standing by, was a bit more lively, and looked at Ji Changying excitedly. "The people in this villa are all children and orphans from poor families that Madam adopted in the past. We only have Madam as our master! But now it's different, with you and the young master here too!"
Taking advantage of the boredom while combing her hair, Ji Changying chatted with them for a while, and Feishuang told them the news she knew without hesitation.
This villa is located in a corner of the inner city, a quiet place in the bustling city. All the people living nearby are "noble people".
Because you can't live here just by being rich.
The owner of this villa, Jiang Qianruo, only allowed them to call her Madam.
No one knows her true identity except Aunt Hua and Chief Steward Wu Bo.
And no outsider has ever visited this villa before.
Ji Changying nodded and had a rough idea in her mind. After she had packed up, two maids immediately carried a bronze mirror as tall as a person and placed it in front of her for her to look at.
In the mirror, she was wearing a red silk dress with a ribbon tied in a bow around her waist, which made her waist look so slender that it could be held in one hand. Her dark eyebrows were reflected in a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water, and her features were beautiful.
She had two small black buns on her head with pearl flowers inserted in them, revealing her entire forehead. Her facial features were exquisite and impeccable.
"Girl! You are so beautiful!" Yanyun couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
It had been a long time since Ji Changying had seen this face like this, and she was a little uncomfortable.
Just when I was about to ask someone to change her hairstyle and let her bangs down, Zhou came running over in a hurry: "Look at me!"
Ji Changying turned her head and looked, okay!
It turns out her mother was also well-dressed! She really looks like a lady!
Zhou spun around holding the purple silk dress. "How is it?"
When he stopped, he saw that his daughter had also been treated badly. He immediately rushed over and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, youth is the best thing after all. My daughter looks even prettier than me!"
Ji Changying smiled with her eyebrows curved: "Go find my dad and the others and scare them!"
After the two went out, they found out that the men had gone to the front yard early to familiarize themselves with the situation.
Several aunts from the Zhou family went for a stroll early in the morning to learn about the situation in Beijing, and Hu followed them.
Only the mother and daughter were carefree enough to sleep until noon before getting up.
Just as the two were about to leave, Nanny Hua came hurriedly over from the front. Seeing them, her face relaxed: "Young Master, Young Master, Madam and Master are back. Please come over to meet them."
