Chapter 519 Seeing Ma Xiyue Again

Yu Xiaolian was a little depressed when she first arrived in the bustling Yangzhou, but she couldn't go out for a stroll.

It's not because the child is holding her back, but because Cao Guangqiao bought the murderer, and she will have to stay in the mansion for a day until the dust settles.

I hope that the reply from Beijing can be quicker!
What Yu Xiaolian didn't expect was that, instead of waiting for a reply from the capital, an invitation from Prince Cheng's son came.

To be precise, it is an invitation from the Crown Princess.

The person who sent the invitation was none other than the 'old housekeeper' who guarded the house last time, because he had chatted with Yu Xiaolian, so he was considered an 'acquaintance'.

Therefore, as soon as Yu Xiaolian inquired, the old housekeeper told the truth.

Princess Cheng wanted to set up a charity hall to take in some orphans without father and mother, and asked Yu Xiaolian to go there for no other reason. Firstly, she wanted to get acquainted with this legendary female wife. Yu Xiaolian donated some as appropriate.

Yu Xiaolian had nothing to say, she had just arrived, and she didn't even go out the gate, so she had to donate money, thinking about it was aggrieved.

If you donate too much, it doesn't seem good to compare the concubine Shi Zi, but if you donate too little, she will look poor.

According to Yu Xiaolian's intentions, she wanted to just pretend to be sick. Anyway, the fact that they were intercepted and killed by bandits was already a well-known secret. Even if she said she was frightened by the vicious bandits, it was reasonable to think about it.

Moreover, she didn't think that Princess Cheng's invitation to her was purely for the sake of the Charity Hall, and there must be other things.

It might be Hongmen Banquet!

Su Jingchen couldn't wait for the capital's reply, nor did he wait for Cao Guangqiao to start again, so he couldn't sit still.

He knew that the invitation to become the prince's concubine might not be as simple as it appeared on the surface, but it didn't feel good to have a knife hanging over his head.

Su Jingchen suggested that Yu Xiaolian go to the appointment!

Cheng Wang's son does not live in Huizhou, but settles in Yangzhou, which is very suspicious. Su Jingchen doesn't believe that he doesn't covet the oil and water from the Lianghuai Salt Field.

Yu Xiaolian went to the appointment, changed into a relatively formal dress and went to Prince Cheng's mansion. Besides Sun Manyue and Fangcao, there was also a coachman, Caogen, beside her.

As for the gift, she didn't prepare it.

She wasn't going to curry favor with Prince Cheng, she had a hunch that the emperor transferred the couple to Yangzhou to target Prince Cheng in disguise.

The only remaining sibling of the emperor is Cheng Wang. If he kills Cheng Wang's son or Cheng Wang in the name of corruption, I am afraid that everyone will poke his back and scold him for his lack of brotherhood.

So, the emperor wants Su Jingchen to persuade him to settle down when he becomes the prince's son?

Or was it because others couldn't keep Chengwang's family here, so Su Jingchen was strictly guarded in the saltworks?
Isn't it, after going through this experience today, I guess I can understand one, two, three.

It's just that Yu Xiaolian didn't expect that this concubine, the crown prince, was actually an acquaintance.

The daughter of the former county magistrate of Los Angeles——Ma Xiyue.

Since Ma County Magistrate died, Ma Jingwen took his family and left Los Angeles.
Where did she go, Yu Xiaolian was not interested in asking about it, the person who thought she would never meet again in this life, unexpectedly met again.

Moreover, it is still on this occasion!

Thinking of giving a big gift to Ma Xiyue, Yu Xiaolian was in a bad mood.

This... She doesn't know if Cheng Wang's son is involved in the matter of the salt farm, but Ma Xiyue called her here, it is definitely not because he wants to discuss the matter of the salt farm.

This person... she is the enemy!

She still remembers Ma Xiyue's resentful eyes when she defeated Ma Xiyue in Jianyin Academy.

Come on, now that she is a princess and you are a minister's wife, it is necessary to salute.

Ma Xiyue sat in the middle, enjoying the happiness brought by Yu Xiaolian's bowing her head.

The feng shui took turns, and she never thought that Yu Xiaolian would fall into her territory one day. God really helped her.

Bowing one's head and curtseying is already Yu Xiaolian's bottom line. As for bowing and bowing, Yu Xiaolian can't do it.

What if her man is a third-rank official, so what if he becomes a king's son? He just has the title of a son, and has no official position. She is so afraid!

Yu Xiaolian bowed her knees slightly, then stood up straight without waiting for Ma Xiyue to say excuses.

Even if you don't look at Su Jingchen, she herself is a seventh-rank academic officer, and the concubine Cheng Wang Shizi can't let him bow down, and her bowing down can only be given to the current emperor.

Yu Xiaolian prepared Ma Xiyue to go crazy in her heart.

It's a pity that she thought a lot about "returning", but Ma Xiyue didn't make things difficult for her, but showed her politely.

There is progress, Yu Xiaolian sighed in her heart, Ma Xiyue is no longer the pampered and savage county magistrate daughter when she was in Los Angeles.

That's right, the county magistrate's father is already dead, she has no support, if she doesn't restrain her temper a little, she will be a fool.

But, how did Ma Xiyue get involved with Prince Cheng's Mansion?She also became the daughter-in-law of Prince Cheng, which is very strange these days.

Don't say Ma County Magistrate is dead, even if he is not dead, he is not qualified to be in-laws with King Cheng!

Is it because of love?
Thousands of possibilities flashed through Yu Xiaolian's mind in an instant.

"Master Yu, I haven't seen you in a few years, are you all right?" Ma Xiyue looked like an old acquaintance.

Yu Xiaolian made a smirk, "I'm fine, how is the princess?"

Ma Xiyue showed a wry smile, "I...that's the way it is!"

Yu Xiaolian raised her eyebrows. Ma Xiyue is in a high position now, so she shouldn't show her unsatisfactory appearance in front of her.

"Ever since my father passed away, my mother brought me and my elder brother to my grandparents' house in Yangzhou. The feeling of living under the fence...is not good!" Ma Xiyue looked like reminiscing with an old friend.

"However, no matter how hard it is, it's better now. I think I still have some blessings in my life, don't you think so, Master Yu?"

Yu Xiaolian wasn't sure what Ma Xiyue meant, but Ma Xiyue didn't dare to do anything to her, "Of course the concubine is a lucky person!"

"I heard that Mrs. Yu married Su Jingchen? When I was in Luocheng, I could tell that the relationship between you was unusual, but I didn't expect that I was quite accurate." Ma Xiyue covered her lips and smiled.

"Yes, now we have a child, and the child is only six months old, so it's inconvenient for me to leave her for too long.

But the concubine Shizi invited me to talk about the Salesian Hall, and I had no choice but to come. I don't know about the Salesian Hall, how can I help? "Yu Xiaolian said lightly.

Seeing Yu Xiaolian's appearance of leaving in a hurry, Ma Xiyue was secretly proud.

Hmph, be afraid!
Since I called you here, I didn't intend to let you go easily!

"Master Yu, don't worry, the Salesian Church is easy to talk about, it's just that we can scrape together some money.

I have a muddled account in my hand. The gentleman in the mansion has been calculating for many days, but he still can’t figure it out. As we all know, Master Yu is a genius in arithmetic. I want to ask Master Yu to help me, so that I can be called a bad account. head and tail! "Ma Xiyue said, and asked someone to bring over two stacks of thick account books.
