A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 530: Good News from the Marquis' Mansion
After Li Jingchuan left, Princess Yongjia helped Li Chaoyun lie down and tucked the quilt in for her.
"Have a good sleep. Leave these matters to me."
Li Chaoyun was exhausted and unable to say more. He nodded, closed his eyes, and fell asleep soon.
After her daughter fell asleep, Princess Yongjia stood up and left the inner room. She told the maids guarding the door, "Serve the princess well and report anything to me."
The maids answered respectfully, and Princess Yongjia left Li Chaoyun's courtyard and returned to the main courtyard.
After entering the main room of the main courtyard, Princess Yongjia called her trusted confidant, Nanny Qing, to come in.
Qing Mama used to serve Princess Yongjia in the palace. She grew up in the palace and had seen too many dark and dirty things, so her methods of doing things were first-rate. After following Princess Yongjia to the Li family, she helped her do a lot of things.
After Nanny Qing came in, Princess Yongjia waved her hand to signal all the servants to go back, leaving only Nanny Qing to talk.
"How is the seventh young lady of the Jiang family?" Princess Yongjia asked in a deep voice.
Nanny Qing stood beside her with her hands hanging down.
"To answer your Highness, the Seventh Miss of the Jiang Family is very smart. In my opinion, she is already 70% similar to you."
Princess Yongjia raised her eyelids, a little surprised, "Oh? 70% or 80%? When I first saw her, she looked less than 50% like that guy."
Matron Qing replied, "Our people dressed her up according to her appearance and put on specific clothes. I also taught her how to speak and act. Now she is like a completely different person."
Princess Yongjia nodded with satisfaction. This was one of the few good news in recent days.
"Well done. If it is really as you said, Su Yuanzhou will get married on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month. I can give my brother a big gift."
Nanny Qing smiled and said, "The Seventh Miss of the Jiang Family is a concubine's daughter, and she was not valued by the Jiang Family in the past. But she is smart and ambitious. Your Highness gave her this opportunity, and she is so happy that she can't wait to cherish it."
After saying this, Nanny Qing hesitated again, "This old slave has only one thing to worry about, that is, if the virtuous concubine knew..."
Princess Yongjia raised her hand to stop Nanny Qing from speaking, "Nanny, you are worrying too much. I have already informed the Concubine Xian about this matter."
"Don't think that the emperor has been praising her and giving her respect in recent years. But after all, she is old and there is no more favor for her."
"The virtuous concubine also hopes to have someone to speak to the emperor, and the timing of the Seventh Miss Jiang's appearance is just right."
After hearing what Princess Yongjia said, Nanny Qing was relieved. After thinking for a while, she said, "It's not too long until the sixth day of the sixth lunar month. I have to give a few more instructions to Miss Seven of the Jiang family. I wonder what Your Highness wants to do? Do you have a plan?"
Princess Yongjia shook her head. "I need to think about it again. Go and tell her not to worry. I will make arrangements."
After Nanny Qing left, Princess Yongjia stood by the window. It was already bright in the sky, and the light shining through the window lattice made her squint.

Although Li Chaoyun's incident caused a huge uproar in the Shen family, things soon calmed down.
Su Qingyu issued an order that the servants in the mansion were not allowed to discuss these matters without permission.
After Shen Zhixiu went to court early in the morning, Su Qingyu called Jiang Qi and told him, "The Third Master, as the head of the Shen family, has prepared a divorce letter. You are to deliver it to the Li family in person."
Zhenzhu handed the divorce letter to Jiang Qi and lowered her eyes, not wanting to look at him.
Jiang Qi took the divorce letter and asked Su Qingyu, "Madam, do you want me to spread the news about what happened yesterday?"
Su Qingyu shook her head. "No, if my guess is correct, the news has spread all over the capital. The Shen family should not say too much at this time. It is best to live quietly and behind closed doors."
"Just spread the word that Li Chaoyun was divorced and the Shen and Li families broke up. No other details need to be mentioned."
The Shen family divorced Li Chaoyun, which was equivalent to making their attitude clear, and there was no need to elaborate on other matters.
Jiang Qi nodded in agreement and went to Li's house with the divorce letter.
Just as Su Qingyu expected, this matter has spread throughout the capital.
Even when the two were caught, the rumor that Chen Ping was wearing Li Chaoyun's bellyband around his waist spread like wildfire.
Those who had previously scolded Xiang Dong and Shen Cheng had already begun praising Xiang Dong, saying that she had a keen eye for people and must have known what kind of person Li Chao Yun was.
In addition, yesterday in the Imperial College, the Emperor praised Shen Cheng in public, and many people said that Madam Xiang had brought up her children so well, so it was obvious that the children would have good character.
When the subordinates reported the news, Su Qingyu raised the corners of her lips and smiled. As long as the wind is strong enough, the fence-sitters will naturally change their direction, so there is no need to worry too much.
The person most affected by this incident, of course, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
He received the news at night that the emperor was conducting a thorough investigation of the Military Equipment Bureau, and the prince was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
His hasty response could only be to warn the man from the Arms Supervisor not to reveal any clues.
Afterwards, a message was sent to Yuntaishan, warning everyone not to act rashly.
The prince knew that Shen Zhixiu did it on purpose. He couldn't get over the anger in his heart, so he couldn't help but have a conversation with Shen Zhixiu when he passed by the cabinet duty room.
Although it was not said explicitly, the words were full of warnings.
Of course, Shen Zhixiu's response was flawless, and he pushed the prince back in a neither soft nor hard manner.
The prince left the cabinet duty room with a sullen face. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the relationship between Lord Shen and the prince was no longer as close as before.
On the way back to the East Palace from the Cabinet duty room, someone brought a secret letter from the Second Prince, whispering, "Your Highness, the Second Prince will arrive in Beijing at the end of June."
The prince chuckled and looked back in the direction of the cabinet duty room. "It's good that the second son is back. This man from the Shen family is a tough nut to crack. If we don't chew him first, the road ahead will be difficult."
When he said the last sentence, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
After Li Chaoyun was divorced, the Shen family remained silent for quite a while, and they only focused on preparing for Shen Yue's marriage.
Su Qingyu even went to Prince Ning's Mansion less often, and most of the time she was busy with trivial matters at the Shen family.
In the blink of an eye, it was late May and Shen Yue's wedding date was approaching.
On the morning of May 23rd, Su Qingyu was still dressing up when Zhenzhu came in to deliver a message.
"Madam, someone from the Marquis' Mansion has come to announce the good news."
Although it was good news, Zhenzhu couldn't smile and looked puzzled.
Su Qingyu was also stunned. "Good news? What's the matter?"
She couldn't think of any happy event in the Su family.
Zhenzhu said, "Mrs. Zeng gave birth to a little boy last night. The Marquis sent someone to announce the good news. Miss, please go back to see your little brother."
Su Qingyu couldn't help but slap her forehead and suddenly realized.
She has been so busy these days that she has forgotten about her father being cuckolded.
