The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Just as Peilin had expected, the Queen Mother learned about the "true friendship" between the Crown Prince and Miss Yang Qi the next day. After saying three good words, she summoned Yang Qi into the palace in the name of Yuan Yi.

The last time she saw this girl was at the beginning of the year. So, it has been almost a year since the Queen last saw Yang Qi.

Seeing the Queen's excited expression, Rong Pei, who was serving beside her, was also happy: "This Second Miss Song is really lucky to have caught the Queen's eye."

Some time ago, when the granddaughter of the criminal Bai Qi, Bai Yuxin, was engaged to the Crown Prince, the Queen Mother did not ask about anything except what she had to do, and there was no trace of joy on her face.

Compared with today, it’s like heaven and earth.

"This girl is indeed likable."

The letter from the Duchess of England had been delivered to the Queen Mother earlier. Now, the Queen Mother knew that her brother and sister-in-law had adopted Yang Qi as their adopted daughter.

In the letter, the Duchess of England praised her adopted daughter to the heavens. What shocked the Queen the most was that her brother, who was usually taciturn, actually mentioned Yang Qi in the letter and his words revealed his fondness for her.

If you think about it carefully, Ruiyuan has grown up with his brother since he was a child. Not only has he been taught by his brother how to behave, but his hobbies are also similar to his brother's.

A girl who is cherished so much by Ruiyuan must be loved by her brother and sister-in-law.

Since the Queen summoned Yang Qi into the palace today in the name of Yuan Yi, it was naturally the palace maid beside Yuan Yi who conveyed the order.

If it were in the past, when Bai Xiang and Nian Chuan had not gotten into trouble, it would not be a big deal for Princess Yuanyi to call a maid into the palace, and it would naturally not cause any waves in the capital.

But now, the situation in the court has undergone earth-shaking changes. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the most powerful person in the court. Not only does his uncle command 500,000 troops outside, but the civil officials in the court also follow his lead.

More importantly, ever since Bai Yuxin was imprisoned, the position of Crown Princess has remained vacant, a position that all the girls from aristocratic families are eyeing.

Over the years, as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's reputation has grown, many ladies from prominent families have already secretly fallen in love with him. Now that the court structure is being finalized, there will be even more people who admire His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of outsiders, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been a man who is obsessed with romantic matters, and it has never been heard that he pays special attention to or values ​​any young lady.

Even though the Queen wants His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to get married as soon as possible, he is a very prejudiced person.

As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not give in, the Queen will certainly not hold her son back at such a critical moment.

Moreover, since learning about Yang Qi's existence, the Queen Mother has lost even the last bit of worry.

As expected, my son just wakes up late!

When Song Hongwen and the old lady learned that Princess Yuanyi had summoned Yang Qi to the palace, they naturally presented the gift with many thanks.

But as soon as the people in the palace left, the two men's expressions changed.

"Mother, this Princess Yuanyi is the legitimate daughter of the Queen, and the younger sister of the Crown Prince. She has always been loved by the Crown Prince and the Queen.

In the current situation, if Miss Yang Qi wins the favor of Princess Yuan Yi, it may be a turning point for the Duke's Mansion."

As soon as winter came this year, the old lady started to burn the floor heating in her house.

Holding the hand warmer, the old lady's eyes flickered: "Yes, the political situation has changed and the fifth prince has lost power. Unless he rebels, there is no other chance.

But now, even if the Fifth Prince wants to fight to the death, he has no more power to use."

Thinking of this, the old lady looked at the Duke with an inquiring look in her eyes: "Duke, did you know that Bai Xiang had surrendered to the Fifth Prince?"

The old lady's words made Song Hongwen's heart sink.

On that day, Mo Chong accused Bai Qi in the morning court. The shock on Song Hongwen's face was not pretended, but real confusion from the bottom of his heart.

When did the Fifth Prince recover Baiqi? If Baiqi had sided with the Fifth Prince long ago, why did he marry his granddaughter Bai Yuxin to the Crown Prince?

Facing the old lady's gaze, Song Hongwen shook his head silently.

"The criminal Bai Qi secretly stationed troops, and the matter has spread all over the capital.

These days, I asked Mother Rong to collect some information. It seems that the origin of the secret troop stationing is probably known.

The Duke's Mansion has been loyal to the Fifth Prince for quite some time, and has been loyal to him for many years, but they know nothing about the Fifth Prince's secrets."

These five princes really hid the secret very well.

"For such a confidential matter, the fewer people who know about it, the better."

When he first learned about the affairs of Bai Qi and Nian Chuan, Song Hongwen was secretly delighted. Fortunately, the Fifth Prince had not asked him to deal with such an important matter before.

This incident has nothing to do with me.

But after returning home and thinking carefully, Song Hongwen realized that the Fifth Prince had never truly trusted him.

In the past, he was just doing some finishing work for the Fifth Prince, but he mistakenly thought that he had already established a firm foothold in the Fifth Prince's party.

After the incident between Bai Qi and Nian Chuan, Song Hongwen finally experienced what a fight for the throne was like!

For some reason, Song Hongwen felt a deep fear in his heart.

Now I feel like I am in a fog and a bush of thorns. If I take a wrong step, there will be an endless abyss ahead.

Seeing the fear in the Duke's eyes, the old lady placed the hand warmer on the short table beside her and said, "Good fortunes are closely related to misfortunes, and misfortunes are closely related to good fortunes.

Now it seems that the Duke's Mansion being weak is not a bad thing.

As for the friendship between that girl Yang Qi and Princess Yuan Yi, we don't need to interfere.

Even if the Fifth Prince is able to turn things around one day, he won’t implicate the Duke’s Mansion because of Yang Qi’s affairs.”

The news that Princess Yuanyi summoned Yang Qi to the palace spread throughout the Duke's Mansion in a very short time. When Xu learned about it, she happily selected several sets of clothes for Yang Qi.

The girl Yang Qi will be of marriageable age next year. Now that she has won the favor of Princess Yuan Yi, it will be a great help for her future marriage.

However, there was no such joy in Qinfang Courtyard as in Shi'an Courtyard.
