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

Qingzhuju.

"It's okay. You don't have to worry. Your grandmother also believed that this matter was a coincidence. There is no connection between you and the fourth prince."

Marquis Jing'an looked at Zhou Jiaqing, who was standing in front of the desk with a calm expression, and asked again in confusion: "Last night you asked Qiu Ju to come over to deliver a message. Did you guess what happened today?"

Marquis Jing'an sent the servants out of the study early, leaving the father and daughter alone to talk.

"Dad, how can I have the ability to know the future so well? It's just that Xia He happened to see the guard leaving your yard and entering the second aunt's Lanxinyuan. He didn't come out for a long time and was suspicious. Thanks to your usual Instructions must be on guard against others." Zhou Jiaqing said calmly and unhurriedly.

Marquis Jing'an nodded, and when Zhou Jiaqing finished speaking, he took a step back and knelt on the ground.

Marquis Jing'an was startled by his daughter's sudden move and quickly prepared to help her up.

But Zhou Jiaqing looked serious and said solemnly: "Dad, it was Qing'er who was not sensible in the past. During this time when she was ill and bedridden, Qing'er had already figured out that you are still partial to Qing'er. It is for Qing'er's sake that you don't associate with the fourth prince." Well, it can be seen that what happened today is a lesson. If Qing'er still doesn't repent, her reputation will be gone now."

"Good boy, get up quickly. My father has never blamed you, as long as you can figure it out." Marquis Jing'an helped up his daughter who was kneeling on the ground, his heart full of love, and said softly.

But then he thought about it and thought that the fourth prince was the culprit, and he almost ruined his daughter's reputation, so he said angrily: "Qing'er, that fourth prince is not a kind person. You just kindly opened your mouth to help him, but he I have made this matter known to everyone in the city, so my father is worried and speaks harshly to you. He is worried that you are young and do not understand the twists and turns and will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives."

"Qing'er understands."

Zhou Jiaqing answered calmly and calmly. She had the appearance of a delicate girl who was born to be cared for and raised in the palm of her hand, but she had a mature and transparent view of human relationships, and her usual lively and willful energy was gone.

Marquis Jing'an hoped that his daughter would be sensible so that she would not be blinded by traitors, but now he felt sour when he saw his daughter being sensible.

After Zhou Jiaqing got up, he talked with Marquis Jing'an for a long time and was about to leave.

"Qing'er, do you really no longer admire the fourth prince?" Marquis Jing'an asked anxiously.

"Dad, if we count admiration as helping each other, it seems that there must be at least dozens of people that Qing'er has helped. Is it possible that every Qing'er has feelings of admiration?"

After Zhou Jiaqing finished speaking with a smile, he found that his father still didn't want to let him go. When he was cross-examining him, he said that he had something else to do and couldn't delay it. Before leaving, he left a message: "Dad, don't worry about me. The fourth prince has evil intentions and is not a good match for me." , I save myself."

After Zhou Jiaqing left, after a while, Marquis Jing'an regained his serious look and said to the old man who appeared next to him at some unknown time: "Old Wei, you can clearly see the changes in my son. He seems to have grown up a lot overnight. I I don’t know whether I should be happy that she can be so sensible. Also, look at a girl who has not yet had hair extensions and is not shy at all when talking about marriage. This is not like a child of this age."

The man named Lao Wei replied: "Master Hou is serious. The second lady is already very thoughtful. As the legitimate daughter of the Hou family and the future mistress of the house, she will have to understand this sophistication sooner or later."

Marquis Jingan paused for a while, his face darkened, and he sneered: "Lan Xinyuan? Huh, in the past, I didn't care about her as a woman. I didn't care whether she gave away more or less money while in charge. I can turn a blind eye when it comes to financial matters, just for the sake of my mother and second brother, but I don’t want to blame Qing’er.”

Lan Xinyuan, who was named by Marquis Jing'an, has the main courtyard door tightly closed at this moment.

"That guard was taken away by the second lady?" The second lady took a sip of tea, wiped the corners of her mouth with an embroidered handkerchief and spoke slowly.

Zi Shi, who was kneeling on the ground, said yes. She was the one who messed up the matter and was being punished by the second lady to kneel down.

"Mom, will he recruit us?" Zhou Jiayun, who was leaning next to her, asked worriedly.

The second lady sneered, took her daughter's tender white hand and patted it gently, "What are you afraid of? If you confess, you just said it in Ronghua Residence. Besides, I didn't instruct him to do anything, I just asked him to tell everything he knew. , it seems that Tao Ranyuan’s people got there first.”

"But mother, have you noticed that the second sister seems to have become smarter and a different person overnight? Her reputation has been damaged before her eyes. The guard also defected in the end. Grandma looks at me differently today. ." Zhou Jiayun shook the second lady's arm and said a little panicked.

"Yun'er." The second lady emphasized her tone and looked at her seriously: "How can a person's temperament change overnight? He probably found out that this guard came to our courtyard. Today is just a fluke for Zhou Jiaqing. Don't let her grow up. When a person's ambition destroys his own prestige, just go and accompany the old lady as usual, don't worry about the rest, your mother is here."

Seeing Zhou Jiayun nodding obediently, the second lady was satisfied and asked Zhou Jiayun to go back to her yard first. After all, she was grounded and had to behave.

As soon as Zhou Jiaqing stepped into Tao Ranyuan's door, Qiu Ju came up and said, "Miss, you are really clever and clever. Fortunately, you caught the guard in advance, otherwise the second room would have taken advantage of him..."

Realizing that something was wrong, Qiu Ju immediately shut up. Qiu Ju did not go to Ronghua Residence. She heard Dongmei, who had come back first, tell her what happened in Ronghua Residence. She felt sorry for her own young lady. When she saw the second young lady coming back, she blurted out unconsciously. I remembered that in the past, the second lady was very close to the second wife.

"The second wife's thoughts are clearly revealed." Seeing Qiu Ju's annoyed look, Zhou Jiaqing said calmly.

Qiu Ju was pleasantly surprised that her young lady could see clearly the thoughts of her second wife, and was surprised that her personality seemed to have changed, but that was fine, she now looked more like the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, unlike before when she could not see the evil in people's hearts.

"By the way, miss, the knife you asked me to find has been found." Qiu Ju took out a rusty knife like a treasure.

Xia He, who was following Zhou Jiaqing, saw the knife, rubbed it in his hand, and asked doubtfully: "This knife is so dull that it is difficult to cut leaves. What is it used for?"

"Put it away first. This is used to deal with people who have evil intentions and betray the Lord." Zhou Jiaqing explained.

The maids looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine the lady was selling in the gourd.

Until night, Zhou Jiaqing took Xia He to the firewood shed and saw Cai Mulberry lying half on the ground, with blood on his back and half of his swollen face. He kept begging Zhou Jiaqing for mercy.

"Who are you?" Zhou Jiaqing asked slowly.

Cai Mulberry's back stiffened, "Second Miss, what are you talking about? This slave is Cai Mulberry."

Zhou Jiaqing didn't say anything more, stood up and left, leaving behind Cai Sang's begging for mercy.

For three days in a row, Zhou Jiaqing went to the woodshed every night, and only said this every time.

Xia He also looked puzzled and couldn't help but said, "Miss, do you think there's anything wrong with picking mulberry trees?"

"How to say?"

"When Cai Sang was first brought into the house by the young lady, the slaves introduced her to the customs and habits of Da'an City. She was a little disdainful and didn't pay attention at first, thinking that she was arrogant. Later, when she met other princes bullying the fourth prince on the road, Cai Sang looked at other princes. The prince's eyes were also so disdainful, and when I saw the young lady's recent words and deeds, and recalled her usual style of picking mulberry, I felt something was wrong."

After Zhou Jiaqing heard Xia He's words, his heart skipped a beat.

If this is the case, why is the entire Hou Mansion targeted?

Zhou Jiaqing is annoyed that his current abilities are insufficient and he cannot be easily exposed.

However, it is not certain yet, so we can only keep quiet. Zhou Jiaqing told Xia He not to tell anyone about this matter. At the same time, he sent two more nurses to the woodshed to strengthen the supervision of mulberry picking.

In the second half of the night, Zhou Jiaqing still slept uneasily, returning to his previous life while half awake and half dreaming.

Zhou Jiaqing relieved Xie Yuanfu, and rumors approached the two of them. She slowly got to know him, sympathized with him, and admired him, and finally ignored her family's dissuasion and became her concubine.

After she finally became the concubine of King Yu at the age of fifteen, she changed from a carefree and carefree delicate girl to a vicious woman who was intrigued and played with power.

She was willing to be the sharpest and easiest knife in his hand, just to avoid dirtying his hands. She tried her best to assist and make suggestions, and finally made the decision.

No matter how many concubines there are in the harem, she was also canonized as the only royal concubine since the new emperor ascended the throne. Although she did not become a queen, she was one person below ten thousand people.

In the early days of Xie Yuanfu's accession to the throne, his foundation was unstable and neighboring countries repeatedly invaded.

He said to Zhou Jiaqing: "When you return from borrowing troops from your grandfather, I will make you queen."

From then on, the mountains were high and the rivers were far away. It took two years to go back and forth. When I came back, the concubine who had entered the palace together had already firmly sat on the throne of the queen.

Who would have thought that borrowing troops was a lie, but luring my grandfather's family back to Beijing and killing them all was real.

Suddenly I saw the scene of my grandfather's family being executed. I sat up suddenly and broke into a cold sweat.

Dongmei, who was keeping vigil at night, stood up immediately and asked anxiously, "Miss, are you having nightmares again? Don't be afraid, my slave is here, so I can sleep for a while."

"What time is it?" Zhou Jiaqing was not sleepy after waking up.

"Yinshichu." Dongmei said.

"Find some history books and bring them over. I can't sleep and have nothing to do." Zhou Jiaqing ordered.

Dongmei always obeyed Zhou Jiaqing's instructions. She didn't continue to persuade her to sleep, so she took the book and put a cup of hot tea next to her.
