Chapter 49 - Entering the Palace
Qin Luofei was truly confused by the Qin Clan's third young master. Just what was he made of? Why was he different from an ordinary person?
Returning to his own courtyard, he washed up, brought out snacks and refreshments, and helped Qin Luo Fei eat a little.
"Miss, why is Third Young Master looking for you?" Daffodil Daydream slowly walked to Qin Luofei's side, her face full of questions.
Qin Luofei understood what Daffodil Daydream was thinking, teasing her on purpose as she slowly said, "It's for … I'll send you to Third Brother to be a maid. "
"Miss, you …" "Good or bad." Daffodil Daydream's face turned red as she turned to walk away. Qiu Yu, who was at the side, covered her mouth and snickered. Everyone in the yard knew that Daffodil Daydream liked Third Young Master.
It was a pity that if a servant liked her master, there would be no result.
Should I give the chrysanthemums to the three maids? Third brother will have the first wife, and the chrysanthemum will be a concubine. However, this thought was rejected the moment it passed through Qin Luofei's mind. She felt that her third brother definitely wasn't some ordinary man. He definitely wasn't some kind of man that had three wives and four concubines.
After leaving for half a day, Daihua refused to enter the house, making Qin Luofei sigh. This girl was deeply in love, so she was afraid that she was the one who was hurt. This Third Brother didn't even like princesses, so how could he fall in love with daisy?
On the other side, Mrs. Meng and the others had waited for the time it took to brew a few more cups of tea when a servant at the door came in to report, "The general has returned."
A few young misses and the Fourth Young Master had already gone to rest, leaving behind the concubines, Second Miss and Third Miss.
Today, the Third Miss was even quieter than usual, not willing to say a single word.
Just as everyone wanted to welcome him, General Qin had already brought two servants into the courtyard.
General Qin's face was covered in red light, and uncontrollable joy filled his brows.
Mrs. Meng's heart moved as she went to greet him. She smiled and said, "Master, what joyous news do you have? "We heard that you were recruited by the Emperor into the palace and were worried about that."
"What's there to worry about?" What's to worry about? Seeing that everyone was present, General Qin was happy and did not bother to make any more plans. After entering the house, maid brought out some hot tea. He took a few sips and laughed: "The Qin family's rich and powerful are coming."
"Old master, tell me what exactly is so good about." Third Aunt could not help but interrupt.
Eldest Young Master already vaguely understood what Fourth Sister was saying today. Fourth Sister was actually so intelligent, he could even guess His Majesty's intentions.
"Today, His Majesty recruited me into the palace and rewarded me, and …" "In the future, I will let Luo Fei enter the palace as an imperial concubine to accompany Wang Zhong. This is a great thing, who would have such an honor?"
As soon as General Qin's words fell, everyone was shocked. They didn't think that the emperor would actually take in Fourth Miss Qin as his concubine. It was only then that the crowd recalled Qin Luofei's words just now. She clearly knew about them, which was why he said those words about causing her to be killed, such that the people of Qin Manor would pay with their lives for her.
The Third Aunt was more serious than the rest as she shifted her eyeballs slightly and shouted: "It's fortunate that big sister did not kill Luo Fei just now, otherwise, all of us Qin Manor would have lost our lives."
Mrs. Meng started to sweat profusely after hearing General Qin's words. How is this possible? How is this possible? Why did that girl enter the palace? Why couldn't she be his own daughter? She clearly wasn't as beautiful as his daughter, so why? Hearing the Third Aunt's words again, his face immediately turned pale.
"What?" "Who had the guts to kill him?" General Qin, who was originally in a happy mood, was daydreaming about his daughter entering the palace. He himself was now the Emperor's national war, and was currently feeling elated from the words of Third Aunt, hence he immediately roared in anger.
Seeing the General Qin angry, Mrs. Meng hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "Isn't it that cheap … Luo Fei, you publicly clung onto the emperor at the banquet, and the general was called into the palace by the emperor, so he didn't return for a while.
"Nothing?" General Qin frowned, he extended his hand and slapped Mrs. Meng on the face, and said with hatred: "You short-haired woman, you nearly caused the death of our Qin family, and even said that there's nothing wrong, from tomorrow onwards, you will stay in the courtyard and reflect on your mistake! In the future, the Third Aunt will take care of the affairs of the mansion! "
General Qin's palm was really ruthless, it forced Mrs. Meng to lie on the ground in a sorry state.
"Mother." Qin Luoyu had yet to recover from the shock of General Qin's words, and seeing his own mother being beaten up, he immediately helped her up.
"Today, I'll go to your courtyard." The General Qin said to the Third Aunt.
General Qin originally wanted to visit Qin Luofei's courtyard, but the attendant that came back said that the Fourth Miss had already rested. She would visit the General Qin the next day.
Currently, even though he had not entered the palace, he was already someone of the emperor. How could the General Qin dare to be hard on him?
All of the people in the courtyard had left, leaving Mrs. Meng and the people waiting on her.
Mrs. Meng covered her face and did not turn back to look at what had just happened.
Qin Luoyu was even more furious in his heart. His mother, who hated him so much, had also miscalculated.
Early in the morning, Qin Luofei went to visit the old lady.
The old lady's illness was a heart attack, so taking a few medication was useless.
When Qin Luofei went in, the few concubines and misses were all there, the only ones missing were Mrs. Meng and Qin Luoyu.
"Old Ancestor, are you feeling better?"
Old Lady Qin didn't want to see Qin Luofei at first, but now, she was someone who wanted to enter the palace, so he couldn't be negligent.
Qin Luofei was relieved, it was just a matter of face.
Aunt Rong sat beside Old Lady Qin, and her eyes couldn't wait to eat Qin Luofei. Qin Luofei only did not know what was happening, but he couldn't do anything about it.
If she was smart and didn't want to provoke him, then he couldn't blame her for being ruthless.
"Rong Yu just died like that, what a pity for such a beautiful woman." Third Aunt was really the type of person who would cause trouble, to still dare to bring out Rong Yu at this time.
Qin Luofei lightly took a sip of the sour plum soup, and laughed: "Since Aunt Rong Yu is so important, why don't you go down and accompany her? She must be very lonely."
"You …" Just as Third Aunt wanted to curse, she suddenly remembered that Fourth Young Miss of the Qin Clan was currently with the Emperor and was not someone she could scold, so she could only shut her mouth.
"Aunt Rong died in injustice. Who told her not to know that the current emperor is allergic to pear blossoms? She actually smeared thick pear pollen on her face, that's why she angered His Majesty and caused his death in battle." After Qin Luofei finished speaking, she calmly raised her head.
Aunt Rong was startled, she did not think that there would be such a thing.
Hearing Qin Luofei's words, Old Lady Qin remembered that Rong Yu had a thick smell of pear blossoms that day.
"That's right, Rong Yu's body was smeared with the incense." The old lady's words could not be doubted.
"So, it wasn't Luo Fei who allowed Aunt Rong to spread the fragrance of the Pear Blossom. If Aunt Rong wants to hate her, it shouldn't be very difficult for her to do so." It was only lively when people came and went. I wonder if Mrs. Meng and her good sister would be in an even worse situation if they got entangled by Aunt Rong.
Aunt Rong was originally a smart girl, so she immediately understood what was going on. It might even be a good plan that was used by Mrs. Meng and her good daughter.
Although Rong Yu was not someone that the Aunt Rong would like, she was still her own sister, so she had to take revenge. Qin Luofei definitely wouldn't be able to escape responsibility, but right now, she was someone who wanted to enter the palace, and it wasn't something a little aunt like her could touch.
"Could it be that Luo Yu did this? That day, my maidservant ran into her maidservant and went to the spice shop to buy the Pear Blossom Incense." I didn't use much of the Pear Blossom, so I was curious as to why she would buy something like that. Only now do I know the reason behind it. " Third Aunt was surprised.
Currently, even Qin Luofei couldn't help but admire this Third Aunt as she was truly everywhere. There was no bad thing that could happen to her, and she didn't even know how a woman like her could give birth to a steady man like the Eldest Young Master.
Old Lady Qin also looked down on Third Aunt and glared at her hatefully.
Third Aunt felt that she had too much to say and quickly took her leave.
Qin Luofei also didn't say anything to the old lady. Her relationship with the old lady had completely stiffened because of Rong Yu's death.
Just as Qin Luofei walked out of the Old Granny's courtyard, a voice came from behind her, "Fourth Sister."
It was actually Third Miss Qin Luoling. Recently, when she had secretly taken care of her face, her scars had become a lot lighter.
"I didn't expect that the first one to enter the palace would be you, little sister." Qin Luoling said faintly.
"The world is unpredictable." Qin Luofei was so unwilling to say more.
Qin Luoling stopped and turned her head, her eyes flashing as she looked at Qin Luofei: "In reality, I don't like you at all. You're not as beautiful as me, not as intelligent as Big Sis, and not as talented as Second Sis either.
Qin Luofei never would have thought that her elder sister would speak to her like this and put her heart into it. It was even more pleasing to the ears than those lies.
"Third Sister came to find me to say these things."
Qin Luoling shook his head, forcing out a laugh: "Actually, I have come to beg you."
"Begging me?" Qin Luofei was slightly stunned.
Qin Luoling raised his head to look at the scenery in the courtyard, and laughed: "So I was wrong about you in the past, although you are not as beautiful as me and my second sister, but your intelligence and talent is superior to ours, and even your courage and wisdom are above ours. "I can't do it anymore. Even if my face isn't ruined, a concubine like me won't have a good ending. At most, I'll just be a concubine to someone else."
She understood, Qin Luofeng felt that this Third Miss of the Qin family was not stupid, at least his intelligence was much better than her mother's.
"Big sister is thinking too much." Qin Luofei said indifferently.
Qin Luoling turned her head, restrained the smile on her face and said seriously: "I want to ask my younger sister to find a person for me in the future. I don't need to be rich, I only need to be ordinary and indifferent, to be the wife of the legal wife."
Qin Luofei was stunned, she never thought that Qin Luoling was actually asking for this from her.
"Will the Third Aunt agree?" The Third Aunt was someone who entered into the eyes of money. If Qin Luoling wanted to marry into an ordinary family, the first person she would oppose would be the Third Aunt.
"Sister only said that she wouldn't help me, how could Third Aunt need sister to worry? Big Brother will help me persuade Aunt, I only heard that sister agreed to it or not." Qin Luoling looked at Qin Luofei with a face full of determination.
