Chapter 433: Chapter 433, the second Prince’s marriage was approaching
Lu Ang looked at Qing Yuan and said, “Do I need a reason to punish a musician?”
Qing Yuan was speechless.
Lu Ang stood up and left the manor. Qiao Nihong chased after him. She glanced at Qian qingyu, who was beside Lu ang, and said, “Lu Ang, Princess Qing Yuan will not be satisfied with you convicting Jiang Wan so easily.”
“Besides, this doesn’t prove that Qian Qingyu is innocent.”
Lu Ang said to Qiao nihong, “I can’t punish a mere musician, can I?”
He really didn’t want to see Jiang Wan and Qian Qingyu continue to confront each other. He was very unhappy to see Jiang Wan. If he couldn’t even punish a musician, then what he did as a prince would be meaningless.
When Qian Qingyu went back, she sat in front of the carriage again and saw Jiang Wan being taken away by the guards in the mansion from a distance.
She felt relieved and looked at the scorching sun in the sky, which drove away the haze she had had for years.
“Qingyu.”
Hearing Lu Ang’s shout in the carriage, Qian Qingyu went in and asked, “What Do You Want, Your Highness?”
“Sit inside while it’s outside,”Lu Ang said. “From now on, you can stay in the Prince’s residence with Peace of mind.”
“Thank You, Your Highness.”
As soon as Lu ang entered the residence, Nanny Ning came over and reported, “Your Highness, you’re finally back. The Changle Palace has announced that you and Miss Qingyu are going.”
Upon hearing that it was announced by the Empress, Qingyu immediately became nervous. “Your Highness…”
“When my mother saw you, she must have wanted to ask about West Mountain Academy. You Don’t have to be nervous. My mother is the gentlest in the world.”
It was impossible for Qian Qing Yu not to be nervous.
As Lu ang entered the palace, Qian Qing Yu did not dare to raise her head to look at the high and mighty woman sitting on the main seat in the hall. She knelt down and bowed. “This servant greets the empress.”
Lady Qiao said slowly, “No need. Back then, I let you leave the second Prince’s palace. I did not expect that I would harm you.
“All these years, I did not know that West Mountain Academy would turn out like this. When we recruit students next year, we will strictly investigate.”
Qian qingyu knelt down and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
“You may leave,”Lady Qiao said. “Ang-er, you may stay.”
Qian Qingyu took a few steps back before turning around to leave.
After seeing Qian Qingyu leave, Qiao Jinniang said to Lu ang, “I heard from Nihon that Qian Qingyu is someone in your room?”
Lu ang said, “Nihon is spouting nonsense. She is just a servant girl by my side.”
Qiao jinniang asked softly, “You have never doted on her? In that case, I owe her in the end. I heard that she still has relatives in Jiangnan. I plan to give her a large sum of money so that she can return to Jiangnan to seek help from her relatives to start a small business.
Even if she can’t find any relatives, she can still get the Qian family’s Bai Wei Lou to help her. After all, she is only a servant in the imperial residence.”
Lu ang said, “What’s so bad about being a servant in the imperial residence? I have never mistreated servants. As a servant in the imperial residence, I don’t have to worry about food and clothing. No one dares to bully her.”
Qiao jinniang said, “A servant is still a servant. How can a servant be compared to a good title? Besides, she will get married in this lifetime. The difference between a servant and a good title’s husband is like the difference between heaven and Earth.”
Qiao Jinniang saw Lu Ang’s conflicted look and said, “You should think about it yourself.”
..
After returning to the imperial residence.
Lu Ang took a few glances at Qingyu and felt unhappy. He knew that Qingyu wanted to get married. Otherwise, she would not have been deceived by Jiang Wan. However, if she were to leave the imperial residence.., what if she was bullied by a man like Jiang Wan again?
Qingyu handed Lu ang a cup of tea and asked, “Your Highness, is there anything on my face?”
Lu Ang took the tea and took a sip. “It’s nothing. I have a headache. Give me a massage.”
Qian Qingyu walked behind Lu ang and pressed his temple with her thumb. “Your Highness, is your strength okay?”
“Yes.”
Lu ang narrowed his eyes and made up his mind.
He selfishly wanted to keep Qian Qingyu by his side. What was so good about getting married?
Nanny Ning was never married, and now she was the one and only nanny in the mansion.
If Qian Qingyu stayed in the mansion, she would be the nanny in the mansion even when she was old. Why did she still want to get married out of the mansion? Wouldn’t it be terrible if she married someone else?
If she didn’t get married, she could be at ease.
Qian Qingyu didn’t know what Lu Ang was thinking, but she had made up her mind. Unless His Highness drove her away, she would stay by his side and be his slave for the rest of her life.
..
At the beginning of October, the cold wind in the early winter blew down the leaves on the ground. The temperature dropped overnight, and the maids who had just woken up changed into winter clothes.
Qian Qingyu went to Lu Ang’s room early in the morning. Lu Ang had received an errand in the Ministry of Works. He had to attend morning court meetings every morning. Even if there was no morning court meeting, he had to go to the palace to learn.
Qian Qingyu entered. Lu Ang had just woken up. He saw Qian qingyu and said, “After today’s court meeting, I have an appointment with Nichang and the others to go to the Yuan Xi Temple. There’s no need to prepare my lunch at noon.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”Qian qingyu walked to a box at the side and took out a large cloak. She handed it to Lu Ang’s personal servant and said, “The Yuan Xi Temple is on the mountain. It’s very cold. Your Highness should put on the cloak when you go up the mountain.”
Lu ang said, “It’s not so cold. How can people who practice martial arts be afraid of the cold?”
Qian Qingyu helped Lu ang put on the cloak and tied a ribbon around his waist. She said, “It’s easy to catch a cold in winter. Your Highness should wear more clothes to take care of yourself.”
Lu ang smiled. “Okay.”
After Qian Qingyu sent Lu ang off, Si Xi snorted. “Your Highness has an appointment with Princess Nichang at the Yuan Xi Temple. The wedding is coming soon. Qian Qingyu, I advise you to stop your seductive thoughts.”
Lucky said, “What are you talking about? Be careful that Nanny Ning doesn’t hear you and slap your mouth!”
Si Xi looked at lucky with contempt and said, “You’re so good to her, do you really think she can be His Highness’sidekick? She’s just a substitute for Miss Nichang.”.
Yuan Xi temple was famous for holding marriages and seeking children. His Highness had gone to seek marriage. Once Miss Nichang entered, how could Qian Qingyu, the imposter, be worthy of staying in the royal residence!”
Qingyu looked at Si XI indifferently and said, “If I’m not worthy, then you’re worthy again?”
Si XI said, “When Miss Nichang enters, you’ll have a good time!”
After Si Xi left.., lucky said to qingyu, “Ignore her. She’s just jealous that His Highness thinks highly of you. Miss Nichang is a kind person. Moreover, after a long time, I can see that you and Miss Nichang have many differences.”
The two of them had different temperaments and figures. Qingyu was the frail Liu Fufeng, while Qiao Nichang was the bright and elegant young lady from an aristocratic family.
Qingyu said, “Miss Nichang is a kind person. She Won’t mind these things. I also look forward to her entering the residence as soon as possible. I think His Highness will be happier this way.”
Qingyu remembered that His Highness wanted Miss Nichang to stay in the palace when she was young. It would be better after Miss Nichang reached her marriageable age next year.
