The Marquis's Mansion is a cannibalistic hell, the daughter of the emperor is being bloodbathed

Chapter 445: Carried away to be a concubine in the middle of the night

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was awakened because someone had come from the palace. The old Marquis looked at the two eunuchs and an old maid from the palace standing in the flower hall with a confused look on his face.

Although Xiaokang also looked confused, he had a bad feeling.

When Jiang saw this scene, she had already vaguely guessed why they came, and so did Liu.

Not to mention Su Qingwan, but the Queen was faster than she expected. She thought she would have to wait at least three days, but she came the next day and chose the middle of the night.

Su Yunrou looked like she was enjoying the show. Although she couldn't influence the Queen's mind, she knew what the Prince of Qi was thinking. He would definitely convince the Queen not to let Su Lihan be his princess.

But in fact, her thoughts were unnecessary. The Queen Mother had already decided to place another bet on the Prince of Qi, so how could she be interested in the women from the Marquis of Chengping's Mansion? Unless it was Su Qingwan, she would not consider anyone else.

Among the people present, only Su Lihan had a shy look on her face. She just thought that these people were here to convey the imperial decree of enthronement, but she never thought about why they came in the middle of the night. This situation seemed amiss.

"I wonder what the two eunuchs and this nanny are doing here at the Marquis' Mansion?" asked the old Marquis.

The palace maid glanced at the old marquis, and then turned her gaze to Su Lihan.

"Fifth Miss, please come with us now. We will take you to Prince Qi's Mansion."

"What do you mean? Just take my daughter to the palace? What about the imperial edict? What about the imperial edict that confers the title of princess to my daughter? And after the confederation, she still has to go through three matchmakers and six engagements. What a day..."

Before Xiao Kang could finish her questioning, she was interrupted by the mocking laughter of two eunuchs. Then she heard the maidservant say:

"The Empress has granted the Duke's Fifth Lady the permission to be the Prince of Qi's concubine. She's just a concubine. Why does she need an imperial decree? She doesn't even need to go through the three matchmakers and six betrothals."

Su Yunrou was laughing very happily at the side. She knew that it was impossible for Su Lihan to take the position of Princess Qi, because that position belonged to her.

"No, this is impossible. How could she be a concubine? You must have said something wrong." Su Lihan couldn't believe it.

But the three of them rolled their eyes and didn't want to say more.

"Fifth Miss, the sedan chair is waiting outside. Do you want to go with us now, or take the three-foot white silk and set off? It's all up to you."

The maid's voice was cold.

Everyone saw the eunuch taking out a three-foot-long white silk, and the meaning was very clear.

Xiaokang was so frightened that her face turned pale and her hands and feet were cold.

The words that the old marquis wanted to say to reprimand Su Lihan were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them at all.

Liu and Su Yunrou just felt extremely happy. The mother and daughter of the second wife made such a fuss, but in the end, didn't she just become a concubine?

It is obvious that the Queen Mother made such an arrangement to humiliate Su Lihan. Being a concubine of the Prince of Qi would be fine, but why would she carry someone directly into the palace in the middle of the night? It's as if she was afraid of being found out. Besides, carrying someone in the middle of the night is not a nice thing to do, as it's not a ghost marriage.

"Fifth sister, get on the sedan first. After arriving at the palace, you will be closer to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi." Su Qingwan's words instantly made Su Lihan find her backbone.

She was right. After going to the palace, she would have plenty of opportunities. With her beauty, she could hold the King of Qi firmly in her hand. Then, wouldn't the position of the King of Qi's Concubine be hers?

"Mammy, wait a moment. I'll go back and get something."

Su Lihan said.

Naturally, the three of them did not stop it.

About half an hour later, Su Lihan left the Chengping Marquis Mansion in a sedan chair.

Xiaokang cried very sadly. She was crying for her daughter, but even more so for herself. Why was her daughter so unfortunate that she couldn't become the Princess of Qi?

"Second aunt, don't be sad. If Fifth Sister can enter the palace, she will have many opportunities to meet the prince."

Su Qingwan advised.

"I know that, but I won't accept it. You've heard what that bitch Liu said. She actually said that all my plans were in vain and that Li Han wasn't destined to be a princess. Bah! Isn't Su Yunrou going to be a concubine too? What's there for her to be proud of?"

"It's good that Second Aunt understands this. Besides, you still have a grandson to hold! The most important thing now is to take good care of my unborn nephew. When he grows up, he can also help Fifth Sister."

"You're right! I'm much better than Liu." Xiaokang was really comforted.

After Su Qingwan chatted with her for a while, she returned to Fuguangyuan.

"Miss, what happened today has made the old marquis very angry. I heard that he asked someone to call a doctor after he returned. I can see that his spirit is getting worse day by day."

Shanhu brought over the midnight snack and placed it next to Su Qingwan.

"He was able to walk out of the yard today, which shows that he is in much better spirits now. Let someone prepare him to meet my 'grandmother' in the next two days."

"Yes!"

The next night, the old marquis saw his long-lost friend again, and was so frightened that he was in a trance during the day.

In a blink of an eye, it was the Little New Year, which was also the day when Su Wen was getting married. Normally, the Marquis' Mansion should have been decorated with lights and colors to add to the festive atmosphere, but the Marquis' Mansion was the same as usual, with no changes except that the decoration of Helin Garden was a little more grand.

Su Qingwan dressed Su Wen up beautifully in the morning. Su Wen looked very satisfied. Being able to marry someone who knows her and loves her is also a kind of happiness. Fortunately, Su Wen's wedding date was set long before Su Zhiyi's death, otherwise the wedding date would have to be postponed. It was also because of this situation that the old marquis advocated not to hold a wedding. The man Su Wen married was the third son of the Minister of Works. Although he was born out of wedlock, he was excellent in both character and learning. Although his status in the family was not as good as that of a legitimate child, he was quite loved by the Minister of Works.

Before leaving, Su Wen cried very sadly and thanked Su Qingwan profusely. If Jiang and Madam Han had not stepped in, her marriage would never have been so smooth.

Everyone was supposed to gather together for dinner that day, but it was cancelled due to a shortage of money. However, Jiang still asked the kitchen to add an extra meat dish.

Su Qingwan and her elder brother Su Yuewen accompanied Jiang for dinner. Su Zhiru wanted to join them, but after he came, the mother and her two sons stopped talking, so he could only leave in disappointment.

In Rong'an Hall, old Kang's face was gloomy as he looked at the food in front of him. There were only two pieces of pickles, half a frozen black steamed bun and a bowl of lard.

Even if you give this to a dog, the dog won’t eat it!

Sure enough, now old Mrs. Kang has become plump and white, her belly has collapsed and she has a double chin. Anyone who sees her will say that the old lady is so plump.

Today is the Little New Year, and she is the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion. These lowly servants dare to treat her like this, it is simply lawless!

She will go and beat the drum to file a complaint tomorrow. If the people in the Marquis' Mansion don't care about her life or death, she will go and file a complaint with the emperor, saying that the descendants of the Marquis' Mansion are unfilial. She will then ask the emperor to dismiss Su Zhiru from his official position and see how the people in the third house can still be so proud!

Old Kang thought viciously. She was now completely disappointed with the old marquis. That man had even killed her two own sons and cut off her hopes for him. She must make him regret doing this to herself!

Just as Mr. Kang was thinking, voices were heard at the door.

"Meet the Fourth Miss!"

"Is Grandmother Kang in there?" Su Qingwan asked with a smile.

"Yes, the old lady is having dinner." A sturdy old woman replied.

"That's perfect. I also brought some food with me. I'll just give Grandma Kang two more dishes."

The door was pushed open, and Su Qingwan walked in. She glanced at the table and smiled faintly: "Grandma Kang, today is the Little New Year, why do you have to eat so plain food for your uncle! It just so happens that I brought a few dishes, so it's just right for Grandma Kang to change her taste."

As they were talking, Shanhu and Linxiang put the food boxes up.

Su Qingwan opened the food box herself and took out all the dishes inside.

"Grandma Kang, look at this dish. Its name is 'Crazy Woman Biting Her Grandson'!"
