Luo Xiuran still remembered Feng Yili’s words. He wanted to get closer to Qian

Qing.

“Qian Qing, I…

However, before he could finish speaking, Qian Qing said coldly, “Young Marquis Luo, even if you have a lot of free time, please leave. I’m going to look after the Young Master.”

After saying that, she turned around and entered Shen Hezhi’s room.

Jian Xin who was standing at the side had a panoramic view of everything. She sighed and walked over to Luo Xiuran’s side before she asked, “I wonder if I can ask you for a favor?”

“Please speak…” Luo Xiuran said, feeling flattered.

“Today’s matter is indeed a little complicated. I wonder where the Prince Regent is now? Please tell him about this so the misunderstanding can be cleared,” Jian Xin said gently. She could tell that Feng Yili had feelings for Yu Yunxi. Although she did not know what was going on with Feng Zixiu, she did not want any misunderstanding to arise between them. Moreover, Qian Qing seemed to be angry with Luo Xiuran because of Yu Yunxi. If this misunderstanding could be solved, many people’s worries would be gone.

Realization dawned on Luo Xiuran. He smacked his forehead lightly. Indeed, it was important that he informed Feng Yili about this matter.

Consort Dowager Ning had returned and brought Feng Zixiu with her. This was going to stir up a storm of blood in the Prince Regent’s Residence.

“Alright, I’ll look for Yili now. However, I also have a favor to ask of you, Sister Jian. Everyone says that Qian Qing is the mother of Junjin… I don’t have any other intentions. I just want to confirm this matter,” Luo Xiuran said, fidgeting with his fingers uneasily at the end of his words.

Jian Xin was briefly stunned when she heard this, but she recovered quickly. She said gently, “Alright, I’ll see what I can find out. You should go look for the Prince Regent first.”

After Jian Xin agreed, Luo Xiuran sighed in relief and quickly left.

At this moment, the maidservant behind Jian Xin called out, wanting to say something, “P-Princess Consort…

The maidservant’s name was Zhu Ling, and she had been serving Jian Xin since Jian Xin was young.

“Don’t address me as Princess Consort in the future. You can call me…

Tian Xin thought about it for a long time and felt lost- It did not seem appropriate to be addressed as ‘Miss’. After all, she was once married and Marquis Jian Zhong’s Residence no longer existed. She really could afford to be called ‘Miss’.

Finally, she turned around and said with a smile, “Just call me Sister Jian like the others…”

“H-how can this be?! T-this is against the rules!” Zhu Ling’s first reaction was to shake her head.

Jian Xin said earnestly, “I’m not the Princess Consort now, and I’m no longer a

‘Miss’. You don’t have to think too much…”

Then, she added, “Earlier, you wanted to ask why I agreed to help Young Marquis Luo to find out if Junjin is Qian Qing’s son even though she’s my sister, right?”

Zhu Ling scratched her head and said, embarrassed, “I just find it a little strange. After all, apart from his poor health, the heir of the King of Xinan’s Residence is good in all aspects. If the Second Miss is with him, she’ll be many times better than if she were with Young Marquis Luo…’

In Zhu Ling’s opinion, although Qian Qing did not have an identity by Shen Hezhi’s side, it was better than being with Luo Xiuran. After all, what happened in the past with Luo Xiuran really left a bad impression on everyone.

Jian Xin shook her head and sighed lightly. “It’s different. At least Luo Xiuran has feelings for Qing. However, in the eyes of the heir of the King of Xinan’s

Residence, there’s no Qing at all…”

When Jian Xin saw Shen Hezhi today, she saw he was gentle just like a celestial being. However, she could see that there were only two people in his eyes: Yu Yunxi and Yu Junjin.

“B-but the Second Miss has already given birth to his son… Why does he still have no feelings for the Second Miss?” Zhu Ling asked. She scratched her head, confused and unable to understand the matter.

Jian Xin’s expression did not change. She touched her flat stomach and looked at Shen Hezhi’s room as she murmured, “Why is everyone so sure that the child belongs to Shen Hezhi and Qing?”

“What? Princess… Sister Jian, what do you mean?” Zhu Ling asked, confused.

“It’s nothing…” Jian Xin sighed softly again and shook her head.

Perhaps she was once pregnant with a child, but she felt that Yu Yunxi’s reaction when she saw Yu Junjin in trouble did not seem like that of an aunt. Instead, her reaction was more like that of a mother.

‘The child looks like he’s around four years old… It’s been five years since Yunxi left the Prince Regent’s Residence…’

“Don’t think too much. Just let nature take its course,” Jian Xin said softly when she saw that Zhu Ling was still troubled over this matter.

In the Yu Residence’s main hall.

The members of the Yu family wore dark expressions on their faces at this moment. They were still upset by Jian Xin’s reproachful words earlier.

Yu Wanrong comforted Madam Chen, saying, “Mother, don’t be angry. Since Consort Dowager Ning hates Yu Yunxi so much, we’ll have a chance to deal with Yu Yunxi in the future. Moreover, Consort Dowager Ning also agreed to speak to the Emperor regarding Father’s reinstatement and Third Brother’s marriage with the Fourth Princess…’

Madam Chen and the others nodded silently.

‘That’s right. With Consort Dowager Ning’s support, that sl*t won’t be able to cause much trouble…’

“Previously when the Fourth Princess visited, there was a huge commotion.

Why don’t we renovate the residence and find a reason to invite the Fourth Princess here again so that she and Yongnian can get to know each other better? It’s not appropriate for Yongnian to enter the palace every time,” Old Madam Zhou said.

Although the Fourth Princess’ status was noble, the Yu Residence was not bad as well. Moreover, Yu Yongnian was made a general at a young age. They must not let the Fourth Princess look down on them.

Madam Chen nodded. However, her expression darkened again when she thought of something. She said, “However, Yu Yunxi extorted so much money from our Yu Residence previously, and Master has been stripped of his official title and doesn’t have a salary. Yongnian has just returned so his salary isn’t much either. Where are we going to find the money?”

Old Madam Zhou’s expression turned unsightly. She looked at the people present.

Concubine Tang was unruly as usual and did not even come to pay her respect. As for the remaining concubines…

Old Madam Zhou’s gaze quickly fell on Concubine Su and Concubine Deng.

“Concubine Su, Concubine Deng, you should still have some savings, right? Especially you, Concubine Deng. You just went back to your maiden home a few days ago and brought back a lot of things. I’m sure you have some money too,” Old Madam Zhou said righteously as though it was a matter of course for them to give up their money.

Concubine Su and Concubine Deng were stunned.

However, Concubine Su was timid and was not used to resisting so she could only lower her head silently.

Previously, Concubine Deng had forked out a lot of money because of Yu Yunxi’s matter. That was why she had shamelessly returned to her maiden family and begged her parents and brother for some money. ‘This old hag actually dares to covet my money again!’
