in the flower hall, Madam Protector heard what the maid said about Shen Qingluan questioning the princess, and then ran away. She was so anxious that she lost her husband in middle age, and she only had this one girl on her knees.
When the Lord Protector died in battle, the Emperor was considerate and allowed the children of her adoptive clan to inherit the title, but the Lady Protector refused. If someone from the clan was chosen to inherit the title, once they established a foothold, wouldn't their mother and daughter have to do the same in turn? Looking at the faces of outsiders?
Even huge family fortunes will fall into the hands of outsiders.
She then went to court and stated that she did not need to inherit the title, and that she would only adopt a child in the future and not let the Lord Protector cut off her relationship with him.
The emperor was happy to take back the title, so he generously made her the Protector of the Country as a kind of compensation.
After losing her husband, Madam Huguo looked at her only daughter like a ball in her eyes. Seeing that her daughter was greatly hit, Madam Huguo was so anxious that she didn't care much. She stood up and said to several noble ladies: "Qingluan suddenly feels unwell. , I'll go take a look, please excuse me."
Several noble ladies said, "Madam, go quickly, we have things to do at home, and we have to leave."
Madam Protector left in a hurry.
The ladies in the flower hall were originally going to stay for lunch, and the banquet had been prepared a long time ago, but now that the masters are gone, and the lottery has been won, there is no point in staying, so they got up and left in twos and threes. .
It's just that everyone can't help but whisper that the marriage between Prince Qi's house and Madam Protector's family may be ruined.
Mrs. Huguo rushed to the yard where her daughter lived. Before she even entered the door, she heard the sound of "dingling" in the house.
The girls all stood by the door with their heads down, not daring to express their anger.
Just as Madame Huguo was about to enter, a white porcelain tea cup hit the ground, and a piece of broken porcelain scum flew up and brushed past her cheek.
"Qingluan——" Mrs. Protector saw her daughter in the room with messy hair and hair, looking crazy, and her heart hurt. She walked in quickly regardless of the porcelain shards on the floor, hugged Shen Qingluan, and burst into tears, " My son, it was my mother who harmed you, it was my mother who harmed you -"
If he had promised Qingluan a wife early, he would probably be married by now.
Now it has been delayed until eighteen, but it is all in vain.
Shen Qingluan's eyes turned red and she trembled in the arms of Madam Hu Guo, "Who is it? Mother, whose bitch promised the prince."
Madam Hu Guo said softly while caressing Shen Qingluan's back: "Don't worry, my son. , Mom will write to the capital to find out."
"It's just that this marriage can't be done after all."
Shen Qingluan looked crazy, grabbing Madam Huguo's shoulders and shaking her, "I'm not willing to do it, Mom, I'm not willing to do it. !"
Mrs. Protector is not willing to do anything. It's just that she is here at her age and has never experienced anything. She has calmed down and said, "My son, this matter can no longer be changed. Right now, we mother and daughter cannot let it go. Don't worry if others saw the joke. Mom will ask someone to look for young talents for you and choose a good one for my son."
Shen Qingluan pushed Madam Huguo away hard, "What's good, there's nothing better . , I won't wait until today if I have a good one!"
"Besides, it may not be a good choice in a year or a half!"
Mrs. Protector heard this. His heart was as sharp as a knife, and he stepped forward to hold Shen Qingluan in his arms and comfort him with words.
Gu Fei had already returned to the store at this time.
She sat at the counter, resting her hand on her chin, thinking hard about how she had offended Shen Qingluan, and why she wanted to kill her after only meeting Shen Qingluan once.
