The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Returning to the carriage, Yuan Yi looked at the puzzled look on Nanny Bai's face. She knew that Nanny was wondering why she was suddenly so "passionate" about Yang Qi today. She smiled slyly and said, "Don't worry, Nanny. This princess knows what happened today."

Since the princess had a plan in mind, Nanny Bai said no more and just sat quietly by the side.

In the Queen's Palace, Rong Pei was talking to the Queen in the room: "Don't worry, Queen, the princess just wanted to play a little, and besides, there is Nanny Bai watching her."

Nanny Bai has always been strict and has many demands on Princess Yuanyi.

The Queen Mother was twirling two walnuts in her hands, her hands were restless, and her heart was filled with worry. Even if Yuan Yi was playful, she would return to the palace at a certain time. Today was the first time that she had not returned to the palace so late.

Rong Pei looked at the walnuts in the Queen's hand and praised: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is really filial. He specially found the best walnuts."

The queen looked at the walnuts in her hand, feeling helpless. Ruiyuan, who had heard something from somewhere, found two walnuts and sent them to the palace, saying that he could exercise his hands more often.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come a long way to find it, so the Queen naturally regarded it as a treasure. She took it out on the day she received it and carefully learned how to polish the walnuts.

"Tada tada" a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from the yard.

When the Queen heard this, she put down the walnut and smiled happily. This wild girl finally thought of coming back.

Princess Yuanyi's footsteps were faster than those of ordinary people, and the Queen Mother could tell them at once.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been practicing martial arts since he was young, and his footsteps have become much lighter than those of others. The Empress could hear them at first, but could no longer distinguish them after the sound became quieter.

Yuan Yi walked into the house quickly: "Mother, mother."

The Queen wet a handkerchief in warm water and wiped Yuan Yi's face: "You are so old now, you don't even know the time when you are playing."

Yuan Yi tugged at the Queen's clothes, and then winked at Rong Pei and the palace maid standing beside her.

Seeing Yuan Yi's strenuous expression, the Empress couldn't pretend not to see it even if she wanted to. She put down the handkerchief and said to Rong Pei beside her: "All of you go down."

After the palace maids locked the door, Yuan Yi hurriedly pulled her mother to sit down. Today's events were too surprising, so it would be better for her mother to sit down and talk so that she could accept it better.

Looking at her mother, Yuan Yi smiled gossipingly and asked, "Does your mother know what happened to me when I was returning home today?"

Yuan Yi rarely showed such an expression, and the Queen was curious: "What's the matter?"

Yuan Yi blinked and said, "For some reason, the imperial horse suddenly went crazy today and started running. Because it was on the street, it collided with the carriage of the Duke of Song's mansion."

The Queen's expression changed, and she looked Yuan Yi up and down, "Are you okay?"

Yuan Yi smiled and put down her mother's hand: "Don't worry, mother, I am fine. There is nothing wrong with the two carriages today."

After carefully looking several times, the Queen Mother did not find anything unusual, so she felt relieved. The imperial horses were well-trained, so how could an accident happen? It seemed that the palace had to be checked again.

There was a flash of anger in her eyes, but it was suppressed by the Queen immediately. Even Yuan Yi, who was standing by, didn't notice it. "This is so dangerous, what's there to be happy about?" Yuan Yi smiled, could it be that she thought this was very interesting? The Queen looked a little annoyed.

Yuan Yi held the Queen's hand in a flattering manner and said, "Mother, I am not happy about this matter, but the person in the carriage of the Duke of Song's Mansion is Song Yangqi, the third daughter of the Duke of Song's Mansion."

The Queen poured a cup of tea for Yuan Yi and placed it next to Yuan Yi's hand: "Song Yangqi? Is there anything strange?"

Yuan Yi held the teacup but didn't take a sip. She just shook it in her hand and put it down again: "Mother, there's nothing strange about this sister Yang Qi, but the jade pendant on her neck is an excellent item."

"Sister Yangqi?" The Queen Mother was a little surprised by Yuan Yi's words. She knew her daughter best. The Queen Mother knew that although Yuan Yi seemed to be carefree on the surface, she had grown up in the palace and was very wary of people deep down. How could Song Yangqi suddenly gain Yuan Yi's favor?

Shaking the Queen's hand, Yuan Yi smiled and said, "Mother, guess what kind of jade pendant is hanging around Sister Yang Qi's neck?"

After Yuan Yi said this, the Queen became interested in the child.

Since Yuan Yi could emphasize this, it means that this jade pendant must be extremely famous.

However, the Songguogong Mansion is not the Baixiang Mansion, and I have never heard of any extremely precious jade pendants. Moreover, Song Yangqi has never been favored by Songguogong Song Hongwen, so even if there is any precious jade pendant, it will not fall into her hands.

After thinking for a while, the Queen Mother shook her head: "I really can't guess what kind of jade pendant Yang Qi has in her hand." It's no wonder that the Queen Mother didn't expect the Rongshan Warm Jade in the hands of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It was because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had always been extremely cold to these young ladies from aristocratic families. For a moment, the Queen Mother would not think in this direction.

Yuan Yi wanted to whet the Empress's appetite. Now that she finally followed her own pace and started to guess, how could she tell the answer? "Mother, think about it, which is the most precious jade pendant in the world?"

This question was not easy to answer, so the Queen said directly: "Different varieties, different uses, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In everyone's eyes, the most precious jade pendant is different. As for your brother, the piece of Rongshan Warm Jade in his hand is an extremely precious item. To him, it is naturally the most precious in the world."

Hearing the Queen finally mention "Melting Mountain Warm Jade", Yuan Yi widened his eyes, looked at the Queen, and nodded rhythmically. That's it!

Seeing Yuan Yi's expression, the Queen Mother was a little shocked, and then began to be incredulous: "You mean, what that girl Yang Qi carries with her is the Molten Mountain Warm Jade that your royal brother wears on his body!" The Queen Mother's expression at this time was so wonderful. It was also the first time that Yuan Yi saw her mother look so surprised and shocked.

Nodding very firmly, Yuan Yi said, "Mother, I was almost hit by a horse today, and it was Sister Yang Qi who saved me. When she saved me, I accidentally saw the jade pendant Sister Yang Qi was wearing on her chest. Mother, you know, I have been following my brother since I was a child, and I am very familiar with this piece of warm jade of his. I will definitely not make a mistake!"

Since Yuan Yi said this, she must have been very sure. This child, really, when did she give away her personal jade pendant, and she, as her mother, had no idea at all.

The confidentiality work was done so well!
