A Blessed Daughter Chapter 507

  Chapter 507 Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet

  Wei Qingwan hesitated, and after thinking for a moment, replied: "Because we have been separated for many years, it can't be called particularly good."

  She answered vaguely on purpose, just to wait for Qi Shijing to express her opinion, so that she would know how to describe her relationship with Wei Qingruo.

  Qi Shijing said: "You and your sister should walk around more. It is very rare for you to be both sisters and sisters-in-law."

   "The concubine knows." Wei Qingwan replied.

  After understanding Qi Shijing's attitude, Wei Qingwan dared not let Qi Shijing know her true relationship with Wei Ruo.

   "By the way, do you know about the late Miracle Doctor Xu in Prince Rui's Mansion?"

   "The concubine doesn't know much, it should be an old friend who has known my sister before." Wei Qingwan replied.

  Before Wei Qingwan couldn't be sure, but after Prince Rui's Mansion auctioned off the scar cream, Wei Qingwan can be sure that Miracle Doctor Xu in Beijing and Miracle Doctor Xu in Taizhou Mansion are the same person.

  In this case, it can be inferred that Wei Qingwan should have known Miracle Doctor Xu.

   "Oh? It's your sister's old friend?" Qi Shijing looked surprised.

   "Probably yes."

   "Why does your tone sound uncertain?"

"Because my sister lived in the country for a period of time due to physical discomfort in her early years, during which time she became acquainted with some strange people. She never mentioned it to her family, so we don't know it very well. It's just that I have seen her with Dr. Xu several times, That's why I have this guess." Wei Qingwan replied.

  Wei Qingwan deliberately made the relationship between Wei Ruo and Dr. Xu ambiguous.

   "So that's how it is." Qi Shijing understood, and quickly said in a regretful tone, "It's a pity that the genius doctor Xu is dead, otherwise it would be nice to let him treat my brother."

   "At that time, my sister didn't agree for some reason. If I had known earlier, I would have gone to Prince Rui's Mansion to ask her to treat Young Master Qi." Wei Qingwan said hastily.

  Wei Qingwan was worried that Qi Shijing would blame her for not allowing Miracle Doctor Xu to treat Qi Zhen in Prince Rui's residence.

   "It's okay, I also learned about this matter. At that time, Prince Rui was not feeling well, and Dr. Xu had to take care of him. Later, because of the hot weather in the capital, Prince Rui went to Tongshan Temple in Hejian Prefecture to escape the summer heat and pray for blessings, so he missed it."

  Seeing Qi Shijing's gentle and considerate appearance, Wei Qingwan felt a little ashamed.

   Then Qi Shijing chatted with Wei Qingwan for half an hour, caring passionately about every aspect of her life, which made Wei Qingwan flattered.

  The anguish of not being able to see the prince a few days ago was also swept away.

Qi Shijing sneered and said to the people beside her after she came out of Cuitingxuan: "I still think that Wei Qingwan is what kind of person, but the result is nothing more than that. There is beauty, but there is only beauty, there is no other merit." , Israel serves people and is just a plaything.”

   "Mother, why did you still care about her so much just now, and be worthy of her sister, how can she be worthy of her background like your sister?" Qi Shijing's personal maid Tingxue asked.

   "She is not worth much, but according to her relationship, she can help the prince and Prince Rui get closer."

   "But Prince Rui's Mansion didn't let Miracle Doctor Xu treat the Third Young Master..."

   "Small indifference can lead to big schemes. My third brother's account can be settled later. The most important thing right now is not to get serious with Prince Rui's residence. If the overall situation is lost because of such a thing, the gain outweighs the loss."

   "But that Prince Rui is not long-lived, so why should you bother making friends with him?"

"Although Prince Rui does not have any threatening power, he is favored and can help our lord speak in front of the emperor. Besides, there are still some people in the court who admire Xu Guogong, so Prince Rui still has some influence. Now we are together It is certain that the Lu family and the Lu family are at odds, and the Lu family is likely to fall to King Jing because of this, so we must try our best to win over other people who can be used by us. Not only me, but even my aunt also tried to be with Rui as much as possible. People in the palace maintain a good relationship."

   "So that's the case, the servants are stupid."

   "So these days, treat Concubine Wei better. If there is any need, let someone do it."

   "The servant girl knows."

   "In a while, you will ask the first-class maids in the backyard to come to me. I will pick a few good-looking ones, lift up the aunts, and expand the backyard for the prince."

   "Mother, why do you still want to stuff people into the prince's backyard?"

"Why not? I am the princess. No matter how many women in this backyard are concubines or slaves, no one can surpass me. My eyes should not only be in the backyard, and my cousin will not hope that. But Remember that everyone who has been favored must drink Bizi soup, the eldest son can only come out of my stomach, and the others can't."

  Qi Shijing was born in the Qi family. She was not only educated since she was a child on how to be a good mistress, how to be a future princess or even a queen, she has also seen a lot of how her mother manages the women in the backyard.

  So from a young age she knew what to do with women in the backyard.

   "The servant obeys."

  August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival.

  The emperor hosted a banquet in the palace, and all the relatives of the emperor, as well as important officials and family members of the court attended.

  This time Wei Ruo couldn't escape.

  Wei Ruo dressed up and got on the sedan chair to the palace with Wei Jinyi.

  Because of Wei Jinyi's physical condition, the emperor took extra care of him, so he didn't have to go to the banquet early like other princes, and he and Wei Ruo joined the banquet when the palace banquet was about to start.

  The square in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony was crowded with people.

  A red carpet about five meters wide is laid out in the center of the square. On the red carpet are graceful dancers in fairy dresses.

  The court musicians on the side played the orchestral shengxiao, and soft music flowed from their fingertips, accompanying the dancers.

  On both sides of the red carpet, there are separate huanghuali tables. Each table is covered with gold-edged Yunjinxiu cloth, and there are gold plates and silver bowls, emerald green jugs, and colored porcelain plates filled with delicacies from mountains and seas.

  The emperor sat on the chairman, with Concubine Qi on his right and Concubine Hui on his left.

  Princes such as Prince Rui, King Jing, and King Yu sat at the bottom.

  Wei Jinyi was placed closest to the chairman, and Wei Ruo sat beside him.

   This is Wei Ruo's first meeting with the emperor.

  In his fifties, his hair is gray, his wrinkles are obvious, his face looks tired, and he looks out of spirit.

  If according to the original book, the emperor didn't have long to live, Chu Lan would succeed him after his death.

  From Wei Ruo's point of view, the current state of the emperor is in line with the setting of the original book.

  Different from other people drinking, Wei Jinyi has tea in front of him, and Wei Ruo can also pretend to serve Wei Jin without making too much eye contact with other people.

  The person sitting opposite Wei Ruo and the others was King Jing Chulan. When Wei Ruo casually looked over, he happened to see Chu Lan looking at her with an ambiguous gaze...
