The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 235 The Prince Is Here (3)
Although Li already knew that this Chuqing was not the other Chuqing, in her heart, both Chuqings were the same person, both her daughters.

Chu Lian gritted her teeth as she looked at Chu Qing who spoke well for her, but she stopped arguing.She also knew at this moment that if she said one more word, she might really be imprisoned in the cold and gloomy ancestral hall.

Even if her mother was there, she didn't want to go.

As for Chu Xuan, seeing her limelight being snatched by Chu Qing lightly, she could only grit her teeth secretly and endure it.

"Alas!" Mrs. Zhang sighed heavily, and shook her head: "Forget it, you all step back, I am also tired from your arguing."

Who dares to ignore the words of the ancestors?
Standing up from the ground, everyone lowered their eyes and retreated.

But when they came to the door, Mrs. Zhang's words came lightly again: "Mrs. Li and Chu Qing stayed, and everyone else dispersed."

Chu Xuan was taken aback, pulled Chu Lian's sleeve robe and retreated.When the eyes flickered, he didn't know what he was thinking.

As soon as she went out, Chu Lian shook off Chu Xuan's hand vigorously, snorted coldly, and led her maid to walk outside the Buddhist hall.There was a hint of viciousness in Chu Xuan's eyes, and she hurriedly picked up the group and quickly caught up.

"Sister Lian, are you angry with my sister?" Chu Xuan caught up and said in a flat tone.

It seemed that the superior arrogance returned to her after leaving the Buddhist hall.Chu Lian froze, and turned her head to look at her: "That big vixen values ​​you so much, why don't you go to the fox's den for a few more laps, why follow me?"

Chu Xuan smiled lightly, looked at Chu Lian with a pitiful look, and shook her head slowly: "My silly sister, that Li's treatment of me is just to drive a wedge between our sisters, she and her daughter , to be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman. How can you be so stupid and fall into the trap?"

After finishing speaking, she withdrew the bracelet that Mrs. Li gave her from her wrist, and stuffed it directly into Chu Lian's hand, suppressing the pain in her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's just a bracelet. If my sister likes it, she can take it. Our sisters How can these external things compare to your feelings?"

"Are you really giving it to me?" Chu Lian held the bracelet, her eyes lit up.

Chu Xuan nodded: "When did I snatch something from my sister?"

Chu Lian regained her smile, and unceremoniously put the bracelet into her hands: "Then thank you sister Xuan."

"You're welcome, the most important thing is that my sister is happy." Chu Xuan said with the same smile.

Chu Lian looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist happily, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.He didn't look at Chu Xuan any more, just dropped a sentence, 'Let's go first. ' Then he took the maid and left.

Chu Xuan watched Chu Lian's leaving back disappear into the garden, and the faint smile on her face was replaced by ice-coldness.

"Miss, that bracelet... is really too cheap for Miss Lian." That bracelet is really beautiful, Shao Yao said with a look of reluctance.

Chu Xuan sneered, and said coldly: "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. If a bracelet can exchange for me the throne of a princess, what a pity."

"Miss, what are you going to do?" Shao Yao asked curiously.

She was racking her brains, but she couldn't think of a way to take off the princess crown on Chu Qing's head and put it on the young lady's head.

Chu Xuan looked back and looked at the Buddhist hall behind her. After silently sneering, she withdrew her eyes, walked slowly into the garden, and went to the yard where she lived, and said in a faint voice: "Say, how can a woman who has lost her innocence Become a princess?"

Shao Yao opened her mouth wide in surprise, looking at her young lady's back.

Soon, she understood.If Chu Qing loses her innocence, she will naturally not be able to be a princess again.But in order not to be convicted, the Chu family naturally wanted to find someone to replace them.The most suitable person, of course, is my own young lady, not only in the same age, but also in appearance, not much different from Chu Qing.

As long as Xiaoyao Wang accepts the young lady during the wedding ceremony, no one will pursue this trick of Taoist Li Zong.

At that time, who will take care of Chuqing?
It's just that if you want to pretend to be a fake in this matter, you always need a scapegoat.In order to prevent the family from investigating and implicating the young lady.As for this ghost, the most suitable one is Miss Lian who has a grudge against Miss Qing and also covets the throne of the princess.

At that time, not only someone will take the blame.My young lady has also become the great benefactor of the family, a good woman who sacrificed her own happiness for the righteousness of the family, and married on behalf of her sister.

It really is a good plan!

Shao Yao looked at her young lady's back with a look of admiration: "Miss, you are amazing!"

Chu Xuan evoked a proud smile, and a kind of arrogance emerged from the bottom of her eyes.

"But, isn't Miss Qing acceptable to Xiaoyao Wang?" Shao Yao was a little worried.

In this regard, Chu Xuan seemed confident, and she said proudly: "If the Xiaoyao Wang is as rumored, he will not turn a blind eye to me."

Shao Yao covered her lips and said with a smile: "The reputation of King Xiaoyao as a dandy is all over the world. It is said that the ladies in the capital city of Jianning avoid him like snakes and scorpions. He is so greedy for beauty, the lady is naturally easy to catch the prince. I just don't know Does our uncle look as handsome as the rumors say?"

This peony, with a thick skin of a foot, even called my uncle.

However, Chu Xuan did not correct her name, but accepted it as a matter of course.It seemed that she had already seen how Chu Qing stepped into her trap step by step.

"Even if it's not as good as the rumors, it shouldn't be far behind. You have to know that there must be a reason for the rumors." Chu Xuan pursed her lips.

Shao Yao leaned over and said with a smile: "Your servant has been taught."

The two masters and servants walked through the garden and disappeared outside the Buddhist hall.

In the back room of the Buddhist hall, Li Shi and Chu Qing were arranged to sit aside by Zhang Shi.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Chu Qing, looked back and forth for a long time, and then told Madam Su: "Go and get the box I prepared."

Su Momo took the order and left, and when she came out after a while, she was already holding a beautifully painted lacquer box in her hand.She walked up to Mrs. Zhang, and respectfully placed the lacquer box on the square table.

With a flick of Zhang's little finger, the box was opened.Inside, it was full of brilliance, with a faint halo.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Chu Qing and Mrs. Li, seeing that the expressions on the faces of the mother and daughter hadn't changed at all, she nodded in her heart, and said, "These are the gifts I planned to give to Zhengyang's daughter-in-law. When you left like this back then, Instead, let these jewels stay with me for more than ten years. Now that Xiao Qinger is going to marry into the palace, these things should be considered as the dowry given to you by my great-grandmother."

Chu Qing looked at Li Shi and saw her nodding slightly.

Then he got up and thanked: "Chu Qing, thank you, ancestor."

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her reproachfully: "You girl, why don't you call me Grandma Zu now."

Chu Qing's smile faltered, and he said embarrassingly: "I see that everyone calls Grandma Zu the old ancestor, and they dare not go beyond that, breaking the rules."
