After being forced to marry a tyrant: I overturned the original plot
Chapter 18 Lessons, She and the Liu Family Are Not in Harmony
Liu Qing is over forty years old, and probably because of his illness, his complexion is not good, but his demeanor is extraordinary and he does not look old.
Qin Xin's gaze was too direct. Not to mention Liu Qing, the person involved, had noticed it, even Gu Fei——
Can't stand it anymore.
He reached out, gently held Qin Xin's hand, and introduced her to Liu Qing.
"My uncle was ill and had not seen her yet. This is my queen."
In this way, he was introducing his wife to his relatives in an extremely formal way.
Liu Qing clenched his fists and covered his lips with them, then coughed a few times.
After calming down a little, he took a breath, looked at Qin Xin gently and friendly, and then nodded.
"Meet the Queen. She and His Majesty seem to be a good match."
There is no hostility.
Qin Xin smiled at Liu Qingyou and said, "Hello, uncle."
So he changed his address to follow Gu Fei's.
Liu Qing nodded, then moved his gaze to Gu Fei's face.
"Your Majesty seems to be in better spirits."
"The queen is here, and my old illness has not recurred."
Hearing this, Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, then kept nodding and saying "OK", and it seemed that he was really happy for him.
"Queen," Liu Qing saw the curiosity in Qin Xin's eyes and couldn't help but smile kindly, "This is your first time here, let the butler take you around, okay?"
Gu Fei also looked at Qin Xin, his eyes showing something that Qin Xin understood immediately: "Don't run around and get into trouble."
Qin Xin pretended not to see it and stood up: "Your Majesty and the Duke have not seen each other for a long time, they must have a conversation, so I will go out for a walk first?"
Liu Qing did want to discuss some private matters with Gu Fei.
Gu Fei: "Then go ahead."
So the housekeeper stepped forward and respectfully made a "please" gesture, and Qin Xin left the hall with the palace maids Huan'er and Shuang'er.
The housekeeper led them through the rockery and flowing water and came to a large garden.
"My lady, the Duke's Mansion is so beautiful."
Shuang'er's eyes lit up and she sighed softly.
Qin Xin glanced at the garden. Although it was already autumn, the flowers and plants were still lush, just like spring.
But she remembered... King Chen originally didn't like flowers.
"The Duke's Mansion is quiet and peaceful, the front mansion looks simple and elegant, but this garden has a few different bright colors."
Qin Xin stopped and said.
"These are the flowers that the Queen Mother likes. The Duke ordered them to be planted."
After taking a look at the flowers, Qin Xin withdrew her gaze. She continued to stroll, and as she walked, her eyes looked not far away -
"Where is that?"
I saw an old courtyard with a locked door, which seemed out of place with the Duke's Mansion.
"Oh, that's... the courtyard where the second young lady lived when she was alive."
The butler's expression changed slightly, and he seemed unwilling to say more.
"Your Highness, please go somewhere else. The Duke's Mansion is commemorating the Second Miss, and they locked the courtyard to prevent the Master from recalling the sad past.
The yard has been in disrepair for a long time and no one has cleaned it. There is nothing to see..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an old woman passing by the gate.
As if she noticed the gazes coming from this side, the old woman looked at the housekeeper, then hurriedly picked up the basket and nodded and left.
"That's the dumb woman..." The housekeeper coughed and explained, "She's an old lady in the mansion. The Duke is nostalgic for the old times, so he kept her in the mansion to earn a living."
Qin Xin's gaze moved slightly and fell on the place where the mute woman had just passed. It had rained a little last night and the soil on the ground was not dry yet, so the footprints were very clear.
"Well, the guest follows the host's wishes, let's go look somewhere else."
I always felt that there was something strange, but Qin Xin didn't ask any further questions.
The butler's attitude was not cold, but he was only superficially respectful.
As he was walking, Qin Xin felt something strange behind him and instinctively turned sideways.
Dodged a stone thrown by a missile.
"Who is hiding there and plotting against us?"
Qin Xin turned around, raised his chin slightly, and glanced sharply behind the tree.
A corner of the sleeve was exposed.
The housekeeper was startled by the noise and looked at Qin Xin. Seeing that she was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, she is the queen. If something happens while he is leading the way, His Majesty will blame her, and he will not be able to bear the consequences.
But when the butler saw the small figure that was frightened and walked out from behind the tree, his eyes suddenly went dark.
"Young Master, why are you here?"
The young boy in fancy clothes, holding a small slingshot in his hand, was staring at Qin Xin fiercely.
"Bad woman, she is the one who took my cousin's position and locked her up!"
Qin Xin narrowed her eyes slightly. Young Master, Cousin…
Is this Liu Qing’s son?
Qin Xin took a deep breath: I really am not compatible with people with the surname Liu.
"How dare you plot against the Queen!" Huan'er came to her senses, stood in front of Qin Xin, and scolded the brat in a tense manner.
Even if he was the son of a duke, so what? Their queen was the master of the harem, and the concubine had to obey the queen. The son of a duke actually wanted to hurt the queen...
Qin Xin looked at the arrogant Huan'er with approval.
Well, it has the flavor of the vicious maid surrounding the vicious queen.
The boy was probably in his early teens, and was used to getting whatever he wanted in the mansion. Except for Liu Qing, no one in the mansion dared to speak harshly to him.
Even Liu Qing, who had such a son at the age of 30, could not bear to blame or teach him a lesson.
At this time, he was taught a lesson by a palace maid, and he was very angry.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you teach me a lesson? I'm going to pull out your tongue!"
What a vicious kid.
If someone says something to you, he will pull out their tongue.
Qin Xin frowned, reached out and gently brought Huan'er behind him.
She walked straight towards the young man, and the housekeeper immediately shouted upon seeing her -
"My lady, don't bother with the child!"
After saying that, he stepped forward to stop Qin Xin from getting closer.
Qin Xin pushed the butler aside with a wave of his hand.
The young man saw her imposing appearance without even getting angry, and then saw how easily she pushed the housekeeper aside...
The arrogance on his face diminished a bit and he involuntarily took a step back.
He said to Qin Xin in a timid manner: "My father is the Duke of Ningguo, and I am the cousin of His Majesty! If you dare to touch me, you will...ahhhh, housekeeper, save me!"
Before he could finish his harsh words, Qin Xin grabbed him and lifted him above his head. The boy screamed in fear.
The slingshot fell to the ground, and he raised his foot to kick Qin Xin in the heart, but Qin Xin flexibly bent back and avoided it.
He slapped him on the forehead with his backhand.
"My father is the king of the Jade Kingdom, and I am His Majesty's wife! You dare to touch me, and I can teach you a lesson on my own."
After knocking the child unconscious with a slap, Qin Xin put him down, knowing that he would not be obedient easily.
Sure enough, the boy's eyes were red, his teeth were gritted, and his fists were clenched. After being stunned for a while, he clenched his fists and swung them towards Qin Xin's stomach.
"boom--"
Qin Xin deliberately did not move, and waited until the young man rushed towards her and his fist was about to touch her, then she dodged nimbly.
Due to inertia, the boy fell forward and fell hard on his face.
Huan'er couldn't help but exclaim "Eh!" and closed her eyes, not daring to look. She felt pain just by hearing the sound.
The housekeeper's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly called out, "Ouch, ouch, my old slave's little master," and went to help the young man up.
Qin Xin spread her hands, looked around with a lively look, so bright and charming.
"I haven't done anything yet, you fell down by yourself."
The young man pounded the ground in anger, but when he stood up again, he was wilted.
Qin Xin crossed her arms, looking at his unconvinced look, and said coldly -
"If you like to bully others, there are certainly people in this world who are more powerful than you. If you like to beat people up, there are countless people with stronger fists than you.
It is not gentlemanly to bully the weak. Even if your father is here, I have the right to teach you a lesson."
"you--"
The young man was about to shout, but was held down by the housekeeper, kicking his legs helplessly. However, he seemed to see who was behind Qin Xin, so he immediately fell silent and stopped jumping.
Qin Xin turned around and saw Ningguo Duke Liu Qing glaring at the young man with a stern face.
Beside him, Gu Fei's lips were slightly raised, but his eyes were cold.
"No one can touch my queen - Liuquan, if you still don't obey, I don't mind punishing you myself."
