Mo Jingchun felt guilty, stood up, and bowed to Mo Linghuai.

"I'm sorry, aunt. It was my mother who wanted me to go back, but I didn't go back. That's why my cousin came to see me. I didn't expect it would cause trouble for the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was my niece's discomfort."

Mo Linghuai helped Mo Jingchun up and said, "This is not your fault, don't do this."

"Yes, yes, it's not my sister's fault in the first place. And my mother didn't ask my cousin to come, he came himself." Mo Weinuo spoke for Mo Jingchun.

Qingyun pricked up her ears, "You said Mo Jiufu came here on his own? Why did he come to the capital for no reason?"

"It seems that he is coming because his mother showed him a portrait, or he begged his uncle to come."

"Portrait? What portrait?".

"I don't know, I haven't seen it."

Mo Linghuai thought for a moment and slammed the table, "I forgot about it."

She looked at Qingyun, "That's a portrait of you and Lanru. It's the one that my mother hired a painter to draw specifically for you."

Qingyun understood, no wonder Mo Jiufu came and targeted her as soon as he arrived. It seems that he came here just for himself.

It was a picture of a spring boudoir, painted by the artist when they went to fly a kite together. It was Mo Linghuai who specially found the painter because he wanted to keep a souvenir.

Mo Linghuai said angrily: "I asked the painter to draw two identical paintings. I kept one at home and sent the other one to Mo's house. I didn't expect that a wolf was attracted into the house."

"Don't worry, mother. Since he is here, we can't ignore him, otherwise we won't be able to explain to uncle. However, we must tell uncle the truth about the disaster he brought to the Prime Minister's Mansion because of his stupidity."

"Yes, let him see clearly what his son is." Qingrong Xu also echoed.

After dinner, Qingyun took Mo Weinuo back to the courtyard, and separated from Mo Jingchun halfway.

Movinuo was jumping around and didn't feel scared even if it was dark.

Qingyun lowered her head and looked at her, "Since my cousin is coming, why are you coming?"

"My mother asked me to come. She asked me to take my eldest sister and cousin home."

"Should I go back together too?".

"Yeah, mother said, it's best to take my cousin back, or maybe take my aunt back."

Qingyun rolled her eyes and pulled Mo Weinuo over, "Come here."

Mo Weinuo followed her to Liangchen Garden. Qingyun opened her jewelry box and found a gold hairpin in the shape of a peach blossom.

Qingyun loved jade and thought gold jewelry was tacky, so she left it alone without wearing it. Movinuo happened to like it, so he thought of giving it to her.

Sure enough, Mo Weinuo's eyes lit up and his mouth opened wide when he saw the golden hairpin. He looked straight at the hairpin.

Qingyun picked up the hairpin and inserted it into her head. "It's so beautiful. Does Weiwei like it?"

Mo Weinuo touched it and jumped up and down with joy, "I like it, thank you cousin."

Qingyun smiled slightly, "As long as you like it. My cousin wants to ask you some questions. Are you willing to answer them?"

"Yeah, cousin, you can ask me anything you want. Weiwei knows everything." Mo Weinuo patted her chest, looking like she knew everything.

Qingyun hooked her lips, pulled her to sit aside, and asked: "How many children does the second wife have now?".

"Currently, it's just me and my eldest sister, but my mother has another baby in her belly. The doctor said it's a younger brother, and my mother is very happy."

Qingyun was slightly stunned. Mo Lingzhi was pregnant, but there was no news at all.

If Mo Lingzhi was really so happy, how could he not send a message here. She sure wanted everyone to know, but there was no news at all. This is a bit strange.

"Your mother is pregnant, does anyone else know?".

Mo Weinuo shook his head, "No, not even my uncle and aunt know about it, and neither does my father."

Qingyun frowned, "Then how did you find out?"

"I overheard it. I went to see my mother that day, and happened to hear the doctor taking my mother's pulse. The doctor said that my mother was pregnant, more than a month old, and it was a boy."

"Have you told anyone else?"

"No, no one else asked me".

Qingyun laughed dumbly, but fortunately no one asked. Otherwise, Mo Lingzhi's matter would not be hidden at all.

If her guess was correct, Mo Lingzhi was so anxious to get Mo Jingchun back that he would take her or her mother with him. It should have something to do with the child she was carrying.

Qingyun asked again: "How many children does Dafang have?".

"Three legitimate children and four concubine children. The cousin ranks third, with a legitimate sister and a concubine sister at the top. There is a legitimate sister, a concubine sister at the bottom, and two concubine brothers."

Qingyun's head hurts. As expected of a wealthy family, the population is large. Compared to the big room, this second room is really sparsely populated.

"Do you have an aunt?".

"There is one who is my mother's personal maid."

Yes, she almost forgot. Mo Lingzhi did not marry, but married a husband. In this case, Mo Youfu should not dare to take a concubine.

After roughly understanding the situation of the Mo family, Qingyun can deal with it easier. After taking a look at the sky, he saw that it was already very late, so he sent Mo Weinuo back.

Early the next morning, Qingyun entered the palace again. This time she came for a follow-up visit to the Queen Mother.

This time, she entered the palace in a soft sedan. As she walked on the road, she kept pressing her temples, obviously not sleeping well. Fortunately, the sedan chair was carried smoothly and Qingyun could take a nap.

Not long after I closed my eyes, the soft sedan stopped. Qingyun thought she had arrived. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the people on the sedan chair opposite.

Qingyun blinked and looked carefully again. She almost recognized the other person as Yan Siyuan, which shocked her. I thought Yan Siyuan was back, and he was a perverted man disguised as a woman.

She had been put down by the eunuch and heard it when she opened her eyes. The eunuch knelt down and called her Concubine Rou.

She just sat like that, letting Qingyun look at her. Smiling so naturally.

While Qingyun was sizing her up, she was also sizing up Qingyun. From her eyes, Qingyun saw only curiosity and no malice.

Qingyun stood up, bent down and saluted, "Concubine Rou, Jin An."

Yuna also stood up and returned the greeting to Qingyun: "Your Highness, please be well."

After that, no one spoke to each other, and an awkward atmosphere surrounded the two of them for a moment. This was the first time Qingyun saw other concubines in the palace, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

It was Yuna who resolved the embarrassment first and said with a chuckle: "Where are you going, Your Highness?".

"Go to see the Queen Mother."

"The princess is still filial and knows how to honor her elders and not waste the title that the Queen Mother has won for you."

Qingyun's heart trembled. She didn't even know that she, the princess, had been won for her by the Queen Mother.

But she remained calm on the surface, "Qingyun always keeps the kindness of the Queen Mother in her heart."
