The legitimate daughter is reborn, her life is still with her

If it were my previous life and being stared at by someone with such an appearance, my heart would have been racing and my face would have turned red.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jiaqing couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Is Your Majesty raising an army to investigate?"

"What is your purpose of helping Ji Chengfeng?"

"Then what is your purpose, Your Majesty?" Zhou Jiaqing did not give in, and continued after a pause: "What is your purpose in helping Ji Chengfeng?"

He was really sharp-tongued. Seeing that he couldn't get any useful information from the person in front of him, Xu Jingxiao didn't want to pester him any more. He slowed down his speech and said in a deep voice: "You saved him, and I will accept your honor." Love, but if I find out that you have any evil intentions, I will not let anyone go in the Jing'an Marquis Mansion!"

A naked threat, with sharp words and no concealment.

Xu Jingxiao is smarter than she thought. When dealing with smart people, why should she hide her true intentions?

"My lord must have investigated the situation in the Hou Mansion. I'm just trying to protect myself."

Self-protection?

Xu Jingxiao knew that everyone in the Hou Mansion was treacherous. Was Zhou Jiaqing using the Duke's Mansion as her backer?

But he agreed readily: "Okay, I owe you this favor."

"Thank you."

Zhou Jiaqing blessed Xu Jingxiao slightly, then turned around and left for the school.

Behind her, Xu Jingxiao raised the corners of his lips and whispered in a very clear tone: "It's really treacherous."

Zhou Jiaqing originally didn't want to provoke the Duke's palace. Xie Yuanfu was very afraid of this person in her previous life. She couldn't find any useful information secretly. Until she helped Xie Yuanfu ascend the throne, Xu Jingxiao disappeared. It was strange. What's more, even Xie Yuanfu doesn't know why he disappeared.

She had no intention of getting involved with such a mysterious person. She would definitely arouse Xu Jingxiao's suspicion when she took action against Ji Chengxi, so she simply stated her purpose bluntly and thought it was to recover a little interest from helping Ji Chengfeng.

"Qing'er, this is Aunt Xu from the Duke's Mansion, come and meet her." Upon returning to the Marquis Mansion, Li Yaxuan said to Zhou Jiaqing with a reluctant smile.

Li Yaxuan didn't know what good fortune Zhou Jiaqing had experienced recently. First, Ji Chengxi from the Prime Minister's Mansion sent some gifts, and then even the Duke of Guo's Mansion, who had never been social, also sent gifts.

Before Zhou Jiaqing could come forward, Nanny Xu stepped forward with a serious face and bowed to Zhou Jiaqing: "I am the steward of Duke Xu's mansion. I have met the second young lady. I came here on the order of the prince to give some gifts." Give something to the second lady as a thank you gift."

Xia He quickly stepped forward to help Nanny Xu up. The four girls holding the brocade box behind her stepped forward. Zhou Jiaqing nodded with a smile, and Chuntao and the other girls stepped forward to take the things.

Zhou Jiaqing smiled lightly and said, "Thank you, Aunt Xu. Please thank the prince for me."

Aunt Xu saw the shock in Li Yaxuan's eyes, and said to Zhou Jiaqing again: "This old slave will resign now."

"Xia He, send Nanny Xu off for me."

"Yes." Xia He responded and personally led Nanny Xu and others out.

Xu Jingxiao moved so fast. Zhou Jiaqing had just explained his purpose in the morning and sent him a gift in the afternoon. Zhou Jiaqing didn't care much about the thank you gifts. This move was intended to prove that the Duke's palace was behind Zhou Jiaqing.

Zhou Jiayun, Zhou Jiahua, Qin Xingyue and Zhou Jiajing, who came in behind, couldn't help but be startled when they saw these things.

Qin Xingyue's eyes flashed, but Zhou Jiahua frowned and looked at them one by one, shouting in a high voice: "Xu Guogong's Mansion? Why only give it to her?" Looking at the thank-you gift sent by the Duke's Mansion, Zhou Jiahua's eyes It’s all clear now, why was it given to the second sister by name? It was from the prince!

But the gift given by the Duke’s Mansion was really eye-opening.

"Second sister, why did the prince give you a gift of thanks? Do you want to return the gift?" Zhou Jiayun had never heard of when Xu Guogong gave anything to any woman. Zhou Jiayun secretly suppressed the jealousy in her heart and pretended to be innocent.

"That's right," Zhou Jiahua no longer cared about being angry with Zhou Jiaqing at this moment, and couldn't wait to speak: "The gift from the Duke's Mansion must be returned. Otherwise, you would think that our huge Marquis Mansion has no etiquette. But, by the way, I haven't been to the Duke's Mansion yet, so my second sister took us with her. Grandma always taught us that sisters should be of the same mind. Sister, I won't argue with you about what happened before."

Chuntao frowned. After all, the Duke of Guo was a strange foreigner, and this third lady wanted to go to his house. She really didn't have the style of a noble lady.

Zhou Jiaqing sneered in his heart, Zhou Jiahua even moved the old lady out because he was too anxious to get in touch with Duke Xu. As for returning the gift, she had never thought about it, let alone going to the Duke's Mansion.

After they finished speaking, they saw that Zhou Jiaqing remained silent, and Li Yaxuan looked at her with a smile: "Qing'er, the second aunt is going to send a message to the country..."

"No need." Zhou Jiaqing interrupted her, "Just accept the thank you gift. Tomorrow is the exam. Everyone should go to bed early."

Chuntao and others followed Zhou Jiaqing back to Tao Ranyuan with thank-you gifts.

"Huh, you really think of yourself as a person. It's strange that the prince likes her..." Zhou Jiahua said with annoyance.

"Third sister, no matter what, the prince has given so much, and the second sister must be different from other women in the prince's heart." Zhou Jiayun's face turned slightly blue, her heart was very blocked, but she still smiled on her face.

Although the person she liked in her previous life was the prince, seeing such an outstanding prince treating Zhou Jiaqing differently from others made her feel jealous.

Zhou Jiahua said angrily: "Impossible, how could the prince fall in love with her? Look at those things, do they seem to be given to the girl's family? These things are obviously given to the uncle, yes, it must be like this..."

Li Yaxuan didn't even listen to the discussions of these people.

She was thinking that the girls in the Hou Mansion were almost at the age of marriage proposal. Although they did not live in separate families, Zhou Haiyang had a high official position, and other people who wanted to propose marriage would naturally consider Zhou Jianing and Zhou Jianing first. Although Zhou Jiaqing and Zhou Jianing are famous for their talents, they are often absent from the house, leaving only Zhou Jiaqing.

He finally overthrew the Marquis's wife and took control of the family in his hands, but after all, she was under the nose of Marquis Jing'an, so he could not treat her harshly, so he had to teach Zhou Jiaqing to be an angry and stupid person.

Unexpectedly, everything had changed in one day. Not only did Zhou Jiaqing become smarter, he became friends with the prime minister's daughter, and became a disciple of the clan leader. Now there was Duke Xu behind him, so he had to act on the plan quickly...

Chuntao and the others looked at each other in confusion when they saw these things. Zhou Jiaqing secretly laughed that Xu Jingxiao was a sensible person, and it was just as she intended to give him such a good gift.

The first item is a jade longevity Buddha that is one foot and six inches high. The jade is round and moist, and it is meant to seek blessings from the Buddha and comfort in my heart.

The second item is a hundred gold ingots. This is something I really like. No matter how expensive she is, she is the legitimate daughter of the Hou family. It is inconvenient to do many things without money. And who would think that she has too much money?
