"My father once had a concubine named Tao, who was the legitimate second daughter of the old Tao Shangshu. Now Tao Shangshu's legitimate daughter is named Tao Huixin. On that day, the Duke's wife returned to Kyoto for the first time and went to the Xia Mansion. Xu wanted to marry her
That Tao girl recounted an old relationship."
Now that Tao Huixin is no longer Xia Boran's concubine, naturally, this respect for the elders cannot be used on Tao Huixin.
"The Tao daughter loves her daughter very much, so she and Wan'er didn't deal with each other at that time. As soon as Mrs. Guo Gongtai entered the Xia Mansion, Wan'er realized that this Tao daughter was actually the godson daughter of Mrs. Guo Gongtai!"
Xia Chiwan said, opening her mouth with a look of surprise.
"Originally, this incident was enough to surprise Wan'er, but today I found out that the Yuan Qiu family of the Xia Mansion is actually the adopted daughter of Mrs. Guo Gongtai. Empress Dowager, do you think Mrs. Guo Gongtai has any fate with the Xia Mansion?"
"Oh, that's really the case?"
The Empress Dowager was very happy. The Duke's wife really had no idea what she was doing, and she was even confused now that she was old.
"Is this Yun Qiu Qin also related to your Xia Mansion?"
From Xia Chiwan's words, the Empress Dowager heard that the newly recognized adopted daughter of the Duke's wife seemed to be related to the Xia Mansion, and had even been a concubine of the Xia Mansion.
"The 'new' adopted daughter of Mrs. Guogong is not only related to the Xia Mansion, but also to the General's Mansion."
Xia Chiwan shook his head and said that the relationship between Yun Qiuqin and Xia Mansion and Yun Mansion had deepened.
"By the way, her surname is Yun."
The Empress Dowager's eyes lit up, she glanced at Yun Qiuqin, and then at Yun Zhanpeng, who had a stern look on his face.
Suddenly, the Queen Mother remembered that Yun Zhanpeng and the Chu family were deeply in love, and Yun Zhanpeng even refused to take a concubine for the sake of the Chu family.
Unexpectedly, an accident happened and Yun Mansion got an aunt.
This incident also attracted some attention from the Empress Dowager. After all, the Empress Dowager envied the Chu family's good fortune.
The extra aunt in Yun Mansion finally gave Yun Zhanpeng a concubine. Come to think of it...
The Queen Mother turned her attention to Yun Qiuqin. It was obvious that the Queen Mother had guessed that Yun Qiuqin was Yun Zhanpeng's only concubine daughter.
"Mrs. Guo Gong Tai's 'new' adopted daughter is the concubine of Wan'er's maternal grandfather, my father's former aunt. But it just so happens that Mrs. Guo Gong Tai's 'new' adopted daughter is just like Tao's daughter.
After making a mistake, I was kicked out of the Xia Mansion by my father, and I am no longer a member of the Xia family. Coincidentally, these two were both adopted as god-brothers by the Duke's wife, so they are destined to do so."
Xia Chiwan revealed the feelings between Tao Huixin, Yun Qiuqin and the Duke's wife.
"However, Wan'er is a little confused at this time. I wonder if the Queen Mother can give Wan'er an answer."
Xia Chiwan looked at the Queen Mother in confusion, hoping that the Queen Mother would give him an answer.
The Queen Mother smiled:
"You've always been an eccentric girl, so what could possibly trap you?"
The Empress Dowager shook her head, feeling that this little girl Xia Chiwan did have some aura. No wonder the emperor was willing to make Xia Chiwan Princess Changping.
With this magnanimity and aura, Xia Chiwan really has a royal air.
"The Tao is meant to be heard by the Ai family."
Xia Chiwan sang harmoniously with the Empress Dowager, and there was no chance for the Duke and the Empress Dowager to interrupt.
Originally, the rosy-faced Yun Qiuqin's face was not as rosy as before after seeing Xia Chiwan's posture.
"If both the Tao family and the Qiu family are still my father's concubines, it would be difficult to call them this title based on what the Duke and Mrs. Guo did."
