concubine daughter

Chapter 14 Provocation
When Hongzhen opened the envelope, he could probably guess the contents of the letter, which were nothing more than hurtful words such as breaking off friendship and never seeing each other again, but he still couldn't help but want to read it.

The letter paper was spread out little by little, and the three big characters were the most conspicuous: I believe in you.

There are a few small words on the side: The relationship between us is maintained by trust. If we lose trust, then we are really doomed.

Hong Zhen's angina was severe, and there seemed to be water droplets in his eyes. He always thought that Man Qing would scold him, but he didn't expect Man Qing to understand him. In this matter, he became a person who didn't trust the other party.

Wen Chen also didn't expect that Man Qing would understand Hongzhen, so he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, "Master, the slave over there will explain to you, as long as you take good care of your natal wife, I believe that grandma will understand you."

"There's no need to explain. I was really too reckless during the day. Fortunately, you stopped me. I'm fine now. Go and rest." Hong Zhen walked into the inner room with the letter.

On the second day, Man Qing continued to implement her plan.

Early in the morning, Manqing washed up and went to Qingzhu Residence together with Haitang.

Qingzhuju is the residence of Mrs. Hou. There are many flowers, plants and trees here, which exude a refreshing smell like fairy grass and sacred trees.

Passing through the grass and trees is the center of the residence. Mrs. Hou always eats vegetarian food and recites Buddha's name. The decoration in the center is very simple. Most of the priceless things have been removed. Only a small statue of Guanyin is the most precious.

Man Qing was helped by Haitang into Qing Zhuju, the servants in the room stood neatly at the side, waiting for the maid Eyi to lead Man Qing to Madam Hou.

Madam Hou was sitting on the Arhat bed, holding a Buddhist bead in her hand, looking kindly at Man Qing with her deep eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes.

"My concubine greets the old lady." Man Qing greeted Mrs. Hou.

After a series of etiquettes, Man Qing was given to sit on the toffee chair.

"I heard from Junxi that you and Yiyi are more familiar. Hongyi is fifteen years old, and it's time to marry a wife. I hope you can go and marry the general for me." Madam Hou moved her body and leaned half on the bed. pillow.

"I should do my best on my own, but..." Man Qing hesitated to speak.

Madam Hou frowned slightly, as if she was a little displeased, "If you have any difficulties, just speak up."

"I heard that... Yiyi looks very much like the deceased young lady of Yongyi Mansion. I also heard that the uncle has already begged the Marquis, and the Marquis also agreed." The handkerchief in Man Qing's hand was rolled into a ball. , Hold it tightly in the palm of your hand.

Mrs. Hou's furrowed brows were hard to relax, and she burst into anger, "The people in Yongyi Mansion are really brave, relying on Lord Hou's favor, they actually fought with me."

Man Qing hurriedly got up and bowed her body respectfully, "Grandma please calm down, I guess, Uncle Biao must not know that Fourth Master also fell in love with Yiyi, if grandma tells him, he will give it up as soon as she agrees."

"Eyi, call Hong Chao to Qingzhuju!" Mrs. Hou was always facing Qin Xi's mansion. When she heard that other mansions robbed people, the anger in her heart showed on the surface. Judging from this posture, one must not underestimate her.

Eyi took the order and left.

Man Qing was helped to sit back, following Mrs. Hou's expression, she deliberately comforted her: "Don't get angry, grandma, so as not to hurt your body. Before I married into the mansion, I heard that the Yongyi mansion never looked down on grandma. Li, looking at it now, this is indeed the case.”

Man Qing realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, and knelt down, "I know my crime."

"Get up, I don't blame you. The people in Yongyi's mansion are talking in vain. Even you know this kind of thing, and they really don't take me seriously!" Mrs. Hou arranged to get up, and because she couldn't stand firmly, Sit back.

Man Qing pretended to be worried, "Grandma, don't be so angry. I'm talking nonsense and sowing discord. It's my fault." Secretly, Man Qing laughed at Mrs. Hou's being too impulsive, but this can be regarded as Man Qing's skill. Getting along well with Mrs. Hou made Mrs. Hou not suspicious.

After Hong Chao was summoned to Qingzhu Residence, Man Qing withdrew.

Man Qing immediately went to Dinghu Residence.Dinghuju is the residence of Lord Hou. Dinghuju is next to Qinyuan. The scenery is naturally nothing to say, but it is a bit depressing, making it difficult to breathe.

After walking across the small bridge, Man Qing arrived at the center of Dinghu Residence. Lord Hou had just woken up, and seemed to be in a very happy mood.

"My concubine pays my respects to Master Hou."

"Is it the daughter-in-law of the third grandson of Qin Xi's Mansion?" Hou Ye smiled and straightened his clothes.

Man Qing also smiled, and said softly: "Master Hou has eyes."

"Get up and sit down."

"Thank you, Lord Hou." Haitang helped Manqing to sit down, the chair in Lord Hou's residence was very special, the base seemed to be concave, and it was very comfortable to sit on.

Man Qing put her hands on her lap politely, "Master Hou, this concubine came here to tell Master Hou... just now the fourth master said to the old lady that the Yongyi Mansion doesn't take the old lady seriously... Maybe it's just a sentence Just kidding, the old lady turned into a rage. Now she is confronting Uncle Biao... I am afraid that something will happen to me, so I came to tell Lord Hou."

"Oh?" Master Hou responded in disbelief, and questioned: "You are from Qin Xi's mansion, how could you help Yongyi's mansion?"

Man Qing saw Lord Hou's cautiousness, and hurriedly said: "I don't have the distinction between Qin Xi and Yong Yi in my heart, but I just heard that Lord Hou is a fair and just person, so I have always used Lord Hou as an example, and now something unfair has happened. Naturally, we will find a way to get rid of it.”

"Shaohua, please come here with grandma and Hong Chao. Alas, I'm afraid this matter is a dispute brought up by Hong Yi. You shouldn't be allowed to get involved. It's because Qin Xi has no way to teach his son. You just step back, and I will resolve this matter." .”

Lord Hou closed his eyes, making Man Qing puzzled. He couldn't tell what he was thinking from his expression, let alone guessing from his words. I don't know if Lord Hou really believed Man Qing.

Man Qing left Dinghu Residence worriedly, and walked out of Yongshou Courtyard, only to see Hongyao standing in front of the courtyard, staring straight at Man Qing, as if waiting for her to come out.

"Wanfu, sir." Man Qing blessed Hongyao expressionlessly, she knew that his appearance would not be a good thing.

Hong Yao took two steps forward, he didn't like that Man Qing was always so far away from him, even if he was a wife, he shouldn't neglect his elder brother like this, right? "Why did you provoke the dispute between Qinxi's Mansion and Yongyi's Mansion? You became the fuse, so aren't you afraid of being burned?"
