Chapter 273

Xiao Wenqing lived like a year, watching the stars rising from the east and falling to the west.Both Crystal Agate and Yun Sanniang stayed up all night, staying by her side just in case.Although Xiao Wenqing wished not to come before Yuxuan wrote back the next day, the rooster crowed in the distance, indicating that it was dawn.

"Ma'am, rinse your mouth and wash your face, and drink this bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup." Jing Jing persuaded softly, holding hot water and a towel in her hand, at the same time, Haitang brought a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup from the kitchen.

Xiao Wenqing, who was lying on the beauty's couch by the window and waiting for the news, asked in a hoarse voice: "The guard who went out to look for your lord hasn't come back yet?" Yu Xuan didn't want her to worry too much about him, so he didn't tell her much about his whereabouts in detail, but He'll tell him about the special way the guards find him quickly.

"No, maybe he's already on his way back." Crystal comforted.They only know that the emperor is getting old, the prince has been impeached very badly recently, the prince's position may not be guaranteed, and all the princes are ready to move. As the emperor's close minister, Master Ling gets up early and returns late, and sometimes stays out all night.This time, my lord hasn't been home for three nights. I don't know what I'm doing. Is the place of business far away from the capital.

Xiao Wenqing got up slowly with Yun Sanniang's arm, and said, "Ma Nao, now you bring some maids and servants to clean Qingshui Xuan a little bit." Son, if Yuxuan's reply doesn't arrive in time, let the concubine's room come in.As long as Yu Xuan is determined, that concubine is really just a decoration.After waiting for two or three years, she tried to marry the concubine.

"Ma'am?" Onyx called nervously.

"I can't go head-to-head with my mother-in-law and make adults difficult." Xiao Wenqing said, "I believe in your character. When that concubine enters the house, she is just letting the Fushouyuan raise a poor person. Haitang, you choose a little maid who gets along well for the time being." Go to Qingshuixuan to take care of my aunt, and I will transfer you back when I buy a new maid." She also assigned two cleaning women to manage the daily cleaning of Qingshuixuan.

"Yes, ma'am." Haitang was very unwilling to serve an aunt who was doomed to be neglected, but Madam said so, so she had no choice but to go.

"Just figure it out." Yun Sanniang gently persuaded, "I can tell that your lord has deep affection for your wife, and you are not the kind of person who is fascinated by a beautiful woman."

Xiao Wenqing smiled lightly, and continued to order: "Crystal, ask someone to prepare some firecrackers, set them off when Auntie enters the door, and ask Aunt Zhao to bring over two pieces of satin and two gold handles, it is my meeting gift for Auntie; Your Excellency is not at home." , the banquet is no longer needed.”

"Yes, ma'am." Jing Jing silently remembered, and went out later to order someone to prepare.

Xiao Wenqing made a choice in her heart. Even though Yuxuan might not be her father-in-law's biological son as she guessed, judging from her father-in-law's subtle attitude towards Yuxuan and Jingquan, her father-in-law has already let the eldest son Jingquan live in her biological father Ling Yulou. With the help of the Ling family, Ling Yuxuan decided to inherit the Ling family's plan. As the second son, Ling Yuxuan will inevitably separate the family.So as long as she endured it for a few years, she would be able to break free from her mother-in-law's control and no longer need to be angry with her.

After washing up, Xiao Wenqing ate a bowl of white fungus soup, and then asked someone to serve two buns.After breakfast, she said, she went to rest, and asked her to get up and dress up in an hour.

Mrs. He, why did the eldest son take care of the concubine? She stood aside, listened and watched, and knew that it was in the evening to marry a wife, because the ancients "married" was the same as "faint"; The official concubine document will be handed over to the relevant people to go to the Yamen to modify the enthroned household registration. At night, the concubine's room will start to serve the man who accepts her.She hadn't slept all night, and her face must be haggard. She needed to catch up on sleep and regain her energy.

Both Crystal and Yun Sanniang understood her intentions, and after waiting for her to rest, they began to lightly prepare for her the clothes she needed for the concubine ceremony, trying to prevent Auntie from being overwhelmed by her mistress' aura as soon as she entered the door.

At noon, Crystal put on a very elegant makeup for Xiao Wenqing, and chose a set of red gold and emerald hair, making Xiao Wenqing look rich and cool.Manao chose a lavender silk high-waist palace dress for Xiao Wenqing with embroidered gold thread cloud patterns on the neckline, cuffs, and skirt. It was thin but not revealing, elegant and dignified; The surface of the white silk fan is painted with black ink orchids, and a green butterfly pendant is tied to the handle.

"Ma'am, ma'am..." A little maid outside shouted suddenly and ran in.

"Yingchun, what did I teach you in the past? Don't shout in front of Madam." Manao, who was helping Xiao Wenqing straighten her waist, immediately reprimanded.The madam is in a bad mood, if the little maid keeps yelling like this, won't it arouse the madam's anger?

The little maid Yingchun immediately stopped, quickly bowed and said: "Report to Madam, a guard has returned and said that the Lord is in the front yard."

"My lord came back in person?" Xiao Wenqing was surprised and delighted at once, it was better than anything else that Yu Xuan came back in time!
"Yes, the guard said that my lord, Madam, don't worry." Yingchun said, "He said that my lord is leading people to block the door and will never let my aunt's sedan chair into the prime minister's mansion."

Crystal Agate was overjoyed immediately, and said: "Ma'am, your lord came back in time." When your lord came back, the matter of taking concubines was easily solved.

Xiao Wenqing held her belly in her right hand, and her smile was as bright as a winter jasmine when the ice and snow melted. "Come on, go and bring the sedan chair. I'm going to the front yard to meet your lord." She said eagerly.

"Madam, can you wait in the courtyard?" Yun Sanniang comforted, "Your Excellency will settle the matter and return to the backyard."
