Chapter 485 Visiting Father
The day after Prince Xian's wife entered the palace, Qin Xiaoning returned to Prince Xian's mansion.

She did not inform her parents in advance. Princess Xian was very happy to see her daughter back. The mother and daughter came to the inner hall, but did not see Prince Xian.

Qin Xiaoning came here specifically to ease the relationship between father and daughter: "Father is not at home today?"

The wife of the virtuous prince was busy chatting with her daughter. After hearing this, she looked around the hall and wondered, "Just now I saw him sitting by the window reading a book. How come he disappeared in a moment?"

He is deliberately hiding from me.

Qin Xiaoning guessed it but didn't say it out loud. She just asked the maid beside her: "Did the prince tell you where he was going before he left?"

The maid hurriedly replied, "My Lady, the prince didn't say where he was going. I saw that he seemed to be heading towards the back garden."

The mother and daughter looked at each other when they heard this, and Princess Xian also realized that her husband had deliberately hidden away.

She sighed slightly, "Actually, your father is thinking about you. Yesterday when I came back from the palace, I mentioned to him that my son-in-law would not take a concubine, and he laughed. It was the first time your father laughed since the Zhao family was abolished. He loves you, so don't blame him."

Qin Xiaoning could understand her father's attitude.

"Of course I don't blame my father. If it weren't for my father's help at the critical moment, my husband and I would have been killed by Zhao Pan by now. In the final analysis, it was my father who made our life possible."

Seeing her daughter so sensible, Princess Xian comforted her: "Your father is not a stubborn person, but he needs time."

"I also believe that father can come to terms with it." Then she stood up and said to her mother, "I want to go see my father."

Seeing her daughter being so filial, Princess Xian was both relieved and embarrassed: "Let's forget it today."

After all, her husband had just escaped, so he probably didn't want to see her.

Qin Xiaoning was very attentive and could see her mother's concerns. Seeing this, she replied, "Who says we have to meet face to face? I looked at my father from a distance. Father and daughter have a close relationship. I believe my father can also feel my filial piety towards him."

"Alright."

Knowing that her daughter was extremely smart and had her own ideas, Princess Xian agreed and accompanied her out of the inner hall. The mother and daughter went straight to the back garden.

From afar, Prince Xian was seen sitting alone in the pavilion in a daze.

The mother and daughter looked at each other, and when they were almost close, Prince Xian noticed them and stood up.

It looks like I have to continue hiding.

Princess Xian was about to go forward to call her husband, but was stopped by Qin Xiaoning. She pulled her mother to stop and said, "I miss my father and mother. Now that I have seen them today, I feel relieved."

Princess Xian didn't understand what her daughter meant at first, until her daughter winked at her. Then she realized that her daughter was saying this to her husband who was not far away.

"Mother knows that you are a filial child."

"Your father is thinking of you, too."

When she said the last sentence, Princess Xian deliberately raised her voice.

Seeing her mother getting the message, Qin Xiaoning winked at her quietly, and then raised her voice as well: "I can understand that my father is blaming me right now, but we are father and daughter after all, and I believe he won't blame me forever."

After saying that, she quietly glanced towards the pavilion and saw that the person in the hall had stopped. Although he didn't look over here, she could tell from his back that he was listening with his ears perked up.

The mother and daughter smiled at each other quietly, and Qin Xiaoning continued, "I also made some snacks myself. I'll trouble my mother to give them to my father later."

The wife of the virtuous prince deliberately said, "You are so busy, it is rare for you to have such a thoughtfulness." "No matter how busy I am, a daughter must be filial to her parents." Qin Xiaoning said while secretly glancing at the people in the pavilion, clearing her throat and saying, "I just don't know if my snacks are to my father's taste."

"A Ning is very skillful. Your father will definitely like it after trying it."

Seeing that her mother was getting better and better, Qin Xiaoning gave her a bright smile: "If my father likes it, I will definitely make it for him often in the future."

The mother and daughter performed a duet for a long time, and Prince Xian just stood there with his back to them and his hands behind his back.

Seeing that her husband did not leave in anger, the wife of the virtuous prince leaned close to her daughter's ear and said, "Since your father is not angry, he must be thinking hard. Why don't we go over there?"

Qin Xiaoning shook her head: "Too much is as bad as too little, take it slow."

After leaving Prince Xian’s mansion, Qin Xiaoning went straight back to the mansion.

For Qin Xiaoning, her feelings for the mansion are deeper than for her natal family.

After all, she grew up here since she was a child. Although she has now moved into the imperial city, in her heart, she still regards the mansion as her own home.

When the women in the mansion heard the news, Li Lanchun and Xia Yun were waiting outside the mansion early.

Xia Yun's belly was now bulging, and even though she was wearing loose clothes, she could still see that she was pregnant.

Qin Xiaoning got off the imperial carriage and hurriedly supported Xia Yun: "Why did you come out? What should I do?"

Although the sisters-in-law have very different personalities, they always get along well.

Xia Yun smiled and replied, "Last time, I slipped and miscarried when I was five months pregnant. This time, I was really careful. But today, I learned that you were back, and I just couldn't sit still."

Before Qin Xiaoning could reply, Li Lanchun on the side said jokingly, "You should be restless now. Since you got pregnant, you haven't even left the house. It's been five or six months now. Oh my, it's really hard for you."

Xia Yun smiled and said to Qin Xiaoning, "Second sister-in-law, look, my eldest sister-in-law always bullies me. It was fine when you were here, but now that you are gone, I don't even have a place to reason with you."

The three sisters-in-law entered the mansion chatting and laughing. Qin Xiaoning asked Xia Yun, "I heard from the imperial physician who is taking care of you that this baby is a boy."

Xia Yun blushed when she heard this, and Li Lanchun said quickly, "Yes, yes, the imperial physician came yesterday and said that it has been confirmed without a doubt, it's just a boy."

"I have the good fortune I have today thanks to my second sister-in-law for recommending Miss Jiang to me," Xia Yun said.

Li Lanchun also echoed the words: "I also want to thank Ah Ning. If it weren't for Ah Ning, I wouldn't have been able to have a child so smoothly."

Qin Xiaoning smiled: "My husband said yesterday that now that our children have entered the imperial city, the two prince titles of the mansion will be inherited by Sanlang and Silang."

When Li Lanchun and Xia Yun heard this, they were so happy that they didn't know what to say.

That is the position of the crown prince, and in the future he will be able to enjoy the honor of a duke, which will be inherited by his descendants.

Li Lanchun was happy for a long time, then couldn't help sighing: "We are fine, but if Fourth Brother knew about this, I'm afraid he would make a fuss."

Qin Xiaoning hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Fourth Brother? Is he still upset because of that little maid?"

"That's right." Li Lanchun said, "Ever since the maid was beaten with a stick by Second Aunt and sent away to the farm, Fourth Brother has stopped studying and has been clamoring to take the maid back all day long."

"Ah! I don't know what kind of magic potion that maid gave him. Fourth brother used to be so obedient, but now he has even ignored the family rules for that maid. Second aunt is so angry."
