Chapter 131 The Royal Family (4)
Concubine Qin Fan laughed, "I guess I know you. So you are really Han Yue's daughter. How has your mother been all these years? I heard that your mother's life in Xiao's residence was quite unsatisfactory."

Xiao Mingyu couldn't be sure of Qin Wangfei Fan's intentions, so she was very careful, "Reporting to Wangfei, my mother is not a troublemaker, and now my father has returned to Zhongzhou, so my mother's life is very good."

"Very good?" Qin Princess Fan looked at Xiao Mingyu with a half-smile.Xiao Mingyu felt uneasy, Fan's expression was too strange.She never mentioned Han's meeting Qin Wangfei Fan's matter. In this way, the two of them are at best acquaintances, and it's hard to say whether they are friends or enemies.

"Are you sure your mother is doing well?" Qin Princess Fan seemed curious about this matter.

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "Reporting to the princess, my mother's life is indeed good." So what if you are not doing well, you can't tell it in front of a stranger, even if this person is a princess.

Concubine Fan seemed to have thought of something funny, and immediately laughed, "It's really rare. Aren't you curious about the relationship between this princess and your mother?"

Xiao Mingyu said carefully: "Wangfei's natal family is in the capital, and my mother's natal family is also in the capital. Did the wangfei and my mother meet each other when they were young?"

"You are right. Do you know that back then your mother's limelight even overshadowed the princess, and many famous ladies in the capital secretly envied and envied your mother. It's a pity that no one thought that your mother would marry the Xiao family in the end. , and he was the youngest son from the house, not the eldest son from the original spouse. Back then, many people felt pity for your mother, because everyone thought that your mother would enter the palace in the end." Concubine Fan's eyes were full of deep meaning, and Xiao Mingyu couldn't see it. See through Princess Fan's intentions.But the word "entering the palace" hit Xiao Mingyu's heart hard.

Xiao Mingyu lifted his spirits and devoted all his energy to dealing with Concubine Fan.She said respectfully: "Thank you, Princess, for letting me know. If I hadn't heard from Princess Wang, the little girl would not know that my mother had such a past. But it is the past after all. It has been more than ten years, and no one would care about it if I think about it." Years ago."

Princess Fan laughed, "You are calmer than when your mother was younger."

"The concubine is ridiculous." Even now Xiao Mingyu was not sure the real purpose of Concubine Fan calling her to come and talk.Is it just to talk about the secrets of the Han family?She finds it unlikely.why.

Princess Fan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put the teacup on the stone table. "I heard that the Zhang family went to the Xiao family to propose a marriage for the eldest son, and you are the one who begged, right?"

"Young lady doesn't know about this matter." Xiao Mingyu said with his head down, the Xiao family is indeed like a sieve, nothing can be hidden.

Concubine Fan didn't care about Xiao Mingyu's answer, "Zhang Shiqian is a prudent person. Although he has done things well, the victory lies in being safe. The prince appreciates this security." Having said this, Concubine Fan sneered, "I really didn't expect that. Zhang Shiqian actually proposed to marry you with the Xiao family, it can be seen that although you are young, you must have had an extraordinary beginning. Looking at it today, you are indeed a smart girl."

"Thank you, Princess Fan, for your praise." Xiao Mingyu was guessing, was it because of the Zhang family that Princess Fan called her?Does the Zhang family have such a big face in Qin Palace?Or does it represent some kind of signal.For example, the balance between the imperial court and Zhongzhou.

"What are you thinking?" Princess Fan asked casually.

Xiao Mingyu lowered his head, and said respectfully: "Princess Qi, my mother did not agree to the Zhang family's marriage proposal."

"I can imagine this matter, your mother..." He snorted again, seeming to reveal a bit of disdain and contempt.Xiao Mingyu frowned secretly, feeling very uncomfortable.

Concubine Fan would not care about Xiao Mingyu's feelings, but said with deep meaning: "The Zhang family has a good plan. At first it was the Xiao family who took that step, but there are also reasons for coincidence. Now it is the Zhang family again, Miss Xiao, you Guess, which one will be next?"

Sure enough, it was related to the current chaotic situation. After knowing the purpose, Xiao Mingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Return to the princess, the little girl is stupid, I really can't think of it."

"Can't think of it?" Concubine Fan looked at Xiao Mingyu seriously.

Xiao Mingyu didn't dare to meet Princess Fan's eyes, so he could only lower his head and pretend to be innocent.

Princess Fan laughed, "You are afraid of my princess."

"Little girls are naturally afraid." Xiao Mingyu admitted this very simply.

Princess Fan looked deeply at Xiao Mingyu from head to toe, "He looks pretty good, somewhat similar to your mother when she was young."

Xiao Mingyu was silent.

Concubine Fan didn't care about Xiao Mingyu's reaction, and continued: "Your mother also came to Baoshan Temple today, right?"

"Reporting to the princess, that's right."

Concubine Fan nodded, "I haven't seen your mother for many years, I really miss you." As for the meaning of this miss, Xiao Mingyu was completely unable to guess.

Xiao Mingyu asked cautiously: "Does the princess need to call my mother, so that the princess and my mother can catch up on the old days?"

"Reminiscing about the past? There is no need for me to reminisce about the old days with your mother. She understands the princess, and the princess naturally understands her."

Xiao Mingyu was confused by these words, and didn't know how to react.He could only sit there expressionlessly, not moving.

At this moment, a handsome man walked in, Xiao Mingyu realized instantly that this man should be the eldest son of the royal family, and also Zhou Qi, the eldest son of the royal family.Zhou Qi went to Princess Fan and sat down, "Is the concubine tired? Why don't you go to the room to rest."

Concubine Fan suddenly laughed, her smile was as warm as a spring breeze, and her eyes were full of kindness.Nodding to the eldest son Zhou Qi, "Okay, mother, go in and rest now."

Xiao Mingyu was dumbfounded, Princess Fan left, but did not say how to arrange her.Xiao Mingyu was anxious, "Princess..."

"Miss Xiao, don't need to be nervous." The eldest son Zhou Qi interrupted Xiao Mingyu, "Mother and concubine is tired, this son believes that Miss Xiao is a considerate person, so he will not disturb mother and concubine again, right?"

Xiao Mingyu nodded helplessly, "The daughter of the people sees the son, and the son is blessed."

"Get up, Miss Xiao, don't be too polite."

Zhou Qi said very politely.

Zhou Qi made the tea himself, and Xiao Mingyu took the opportunity to look at it. He had to say that all the people in the palace were good-looking, and the eldest son Zhou Qi was no exception.Compared with his cousin Zhou Gan, Zhou Qi gives the impression of being gentle and refined, not as aggressive as Zhou Gan.The attitude is also close to the people, not as high as Zhou Gan.In such a comparison, Xiao Mingyu had to admit that although he didn't know Zhou Qi's temperament, it was relatively easier to win people's hearts with his face and attitude.However, Qin Wangfu's military merits are important, but they don't know how influential Zhou Qi is in the army.If he can't get the support of the army, then Zhou Qi's son's journey is bound to be full of countless variables, and whether he will be able to sit in the position of prince in the end is still unknown.
