idle mistress

Gao Xiangning said, "The Temple of Mercy."

Shen Qing was slightly taken aback: "There are quite a few nunneries in the city, why did she run so far?"

"You don't know about this sister-in-law. The Mercy Nunnery is less than a mile away from Shige Mountain, and the Imperial Mausoleum is located on Shige Mountain."

"Fei Ling? What Fei Ling?"

"Uh..." Gao Ningxiang was stunned for a moment, then raised her head and looked at her brother.

She is living well now, and she felt that it was unlucky for her to mention this, but after thinking about it, her sister-in-law has always been a maverick, and she is not a superstitious person. When did she care about these things, so she told her openly she:
"That's the mausoleum that my cousin built for you. Jin Nuo chose to practice there, more or less because he intended to guard the mausoleum for you."

After hearing this, Shen Qing was moved in his heart.

At the end, Gao Ningxiang looked at her and added:
"Sister-in-law, cousin loves you very much."

After Shen Qing heard this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and she asked with a smile: "Why did my sister say that?"

"Really, I won't lie to you. Your accident hit him hard. Back then when he came back from the capital, he saw the East Court being burned like that; everyone thought you were buried in the fire. Although my cousin couldn't see it on the surface What, he didn't eat or drink for several days, and then he fell seriously ill, even so, he still insisted on taking care of your funeral himself."

Shen Qing nodded... She knows that he cares about herself.

"Back then, my cousin prepared a lot of funeral objects for you, all of which were in the concubine's mausoleum."

"Really?" Shen Qing nodded: "This man is really stupid. Everyone is dead. What's the use of giving more funeral objects? Can a dead person really be used?"

Gao Jijing: "Sister-in-law, whether you use it or not, it is His Highness's wish for you."

Shen Qing nodded: "Well, I know that."

She looked at Gao Jijing and said, "Ji Jing, I have something to ask you."

"Sister-in-law, please tell me."

"I've heard about Haitang, and I want to ask you to help me find out her whereabouts."

Gao Jijing nodded: "That's no problem, but in my opinion, since she didn't want to testify that day, she probably didn't want to be disturbed."

A wry smile appeared on Shen Qing's face: "I understand this, but even so, I want to know her situation."

Seeing that she was so persistent, Gao Jijing nodded and promised, "Then I'll check it out."

"Thanks, his second uncle." Shen Qing picked up the cup and touched Gao Jijing.

After the Gao brothers and sisters left, Shen Qing came to his son's study again, and before entering the door, he saw a well-dressed girl in the study.

With her back to the door, the girl was standing in front of the desk, rubbing ink for her son, bowing her head and talking with Yi'er from time to time.

Although Shen Qing wondered who this little girl was, she could be so congenial with her own son?

But as an elder, it's inconvenient to disturb me, and I was about to retreat, when I turned around, I met a little girl who was walking behind me, before Shen Qing could stop her, the little girl curtseyed at her:
"Princess Princess..."

Hearing the sound, the two who were chatting vigorously turned their heads at the same time, and Zhao Yi was the first to call out to her: "Mom."

The girl also looked at her with a strange look in her eyes.

Although it was at her own home, for some reason, Shen Qing had the feeling of being caught by her son for peeping. She looked slightly embarrassed, and stretched out her hand to scratch her head in embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, Yi'er, I didn't mean to disturb you, uh... this girl is..."

The girl came to her senses, put down the ink in her hand, walked a few steps forward, came three steps away from her, bent down and saluted: "My niece Xu Bijun has seen my aunt."

This aunt made Shen Qing realize that the girl in front of her was the eldest niece of her Lanyang family.

When she was in Cangcheng, she learned from Qi Jing that her natal elder brother and sister-in-law brought their family to Huaicheng to express their condolences, and then stayed in the Lingwang Mansion, and the family was placed in Chunyuan.

I also heard that their eldest girl is very close to their son, and that girl looks somewhat similar to him.

Shen Qing stared at the girl's face for a few seconds, but didn't see why.

Seeing her lost in thought, Zhao Yi yelled at her again: "Mother."

"Oh..." Shen Qing came to her senses, and stepped forward to help Xu Bijun up: "Please get up, your name is Bijun, right?"

The girl nodded.

Shen Qing exchanged a few words with him, then found an excuse and left.

Coming out of her son's study, she prepared some gifts and went to Chunyuan.

Brother and sister-in-law had known about her return to the palace for a long time, and had been waiting for her in Chunyuan. Seeing her, the two seemed very happy.

Especially her sister-in-law Hongyan is very enthusiastic towards her.

Holding her hand all the time, Shen Qing was not used to this sudden intimacy, so the aunt and sister-in-law chatted for a while.

This Hongyan couldn't say anything without her eldest daughter, she would tell her that her eldest daughter was proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she would praise her eldest daughter for being knowledgeable, and she would say that her eldest daughter's temperament was very similar. As an aunt, she is soft-hearted and kind.

How could anyone keep praising his daughter so much in front of others? Shen Qing felt a little uncomfortable hearing it, and couldn't bear it any longer, so she found an excuse and got up and left.

When it was time for dinner, she came to her son's study again, and saw that Xu Bijun hadn't left yet. The two children were leaning close together, talking and laughing.

She didn't pay attention at the time, but felt that the two children were of the same age and were cousins, so it was understandable that they were closer to outsiders.

However, on the second and third days, this Xu Bijun reported to Shizi's residence every day like a routine.

This child speaks quite smoothly, and there is a bit of deliberate flattery towards her in his words. How many years has she lived in Shen Qing?This little girl has only lived for a few years, so she can tell at a glance how much is real and how much is fake.

Later she mentioned this matter to Gao Ningxiang, and Gao Ningxiang told her that her natal sister-in-law once asked her brother, saying:
"Second Master, according to my Bijun's talent and appearance, how would he be worthy of the crown prince?"

Shen Qing suddenly realized after hearing these words, it turned out that this family had this idea.

After all, Gao Ningxiang looked at her and asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you think of this marriage?"

Shen Qing said in one breath: "That must not work."

Hearing this, Gao Ningxiang breathed a sigh of relief, she had always disliked Xu Bijun in her heart, and felt that there was something wrong with this girl's character.

But her upbringing made her unable to speak ill of others behind her back. She was really afraid that her sister-in-law would accept this marriage without knowing why.

Shen Qing didn't know what was going on in her heart, the reason why she opposed this marriage was entirely out of responsibility to her son.

These two are cousins, and their relationship is far from the fifth level. If there is something between these two, it would be abnormal in her eyes.
