Yun Jingchu felt guilty about Meng Yi. Although Meng Yi had volunteered in the first place, it was always because of them that An Ran targeted him and made his married life look like a spy's life.
However, Baili Wushang relayed Meng Yi's answer to Yun Jingchu the next day.
Meng Yi said: "Thank you, Prince and Princess, for your concern. I don't have a woman I like now. If I do, I will tell the Prince and Princess."
Yun Jingchu suddenly felt a little worried, Meng Yi was hurt by An Ran.
Finally, the news that Anran had been living in the Buddhist hall for a long time and that her relationship with Meng Yi had broken down reached the ears of Qi Guogong and his wife. Therefore, Qi Guogong and his wife personally went to Meng Yi's mansion to visit their daughter.
It is unknown what the mother and daughter talked about. The next day, the Duke of Qi and his wife came to visit Yun Jingchu.
Mrs. Qi Guogong is an elder, and her status and identity are there. It is difficult for Yun Jingchu to refuse without a valid reason, although Yun Jingchu also guessed the reason why Mrs. Qi Guogong came to her.
Because Yun Jingchu was not very familiar with Mrs. Qi Guogong, and Yun Jingchu was on the bed, her appearance was not very neat. Therefore, when Yun Jingchu saw Qi Guogong's wife for the first time, he pulled down the gauze curtain on the bed.
Although Yun Jingchu wanted to meet guests in the flower hall, Concubine Dong Xian insisted that she would not be allowed out of the bedroom for more than a hundred days.
"Congratulations to the princess on the birth of two sons and two daughters." As soon as Mrs. Qi Guogong sat down, she smiled and said, "I don't know how many people in the capital are envious and admire you."
"Thank you, Madam Qi Guogong." Yun Jingchu also smiled and thanked her with a gentle tone, "I wonder why Madam Qi Guogong came to see me?"
Yun Jingchu didn't want to engage in Tai Chi with the other party, so he decided to ask the question first.
"Uh..." The smile on Mrs. Qi Guogong's face froze for a moment, and then she said with a smile, "I came to see the princess. I really want to ask the princess for something, and I hope the princess can agree."
Yun Jingchu blinked, and then said in a gentle tone: "Please tell me, if I can help, I will definitely help."
"It's like this..." The expression on Mrs. Qi Guogong's face was a little hesitant, and she spoke very slowly, "My useless daughter accidentally lost her reputation because of cheating on her son-in-law. Although we tried our best to stop it, we still persisted.
I want to marry Meng’s son-in-law. To be honest, I hope the princess won’t be angry.”
"Please speak." Yun Jingchu said calmly.
"Although Meng's son-in-law is a bodyguard of His Royal Highness Prince Kang and is favored by Prince Kang, in the eyes of me and our head, Xinran and him are still incompatible with each other. That's why we tried our best to stop him in the first place. Can you understand, Princess?"
Mrs. Qi Guogong looked cautiously in the direction of Yun Jingchu.
"..." Yun Jingchu smiled faintly and said without comment, "Meng Yi is like my family and the prince's family."
Although it is not stated explicitly, this sentence can be regarded as a denial of the previous paragraph by Mrs. Qi Guogong.
The expression on Mrs. Qi's face became increasingly stiff: "Yes, yes, we all understand this."
At this point in the conversation, the atmosphere was a bit stagnant.
Mrs. Qi Guogong was silent for a moment, and then spoke again: "A few days ago, I heard that Xinran and Meng's son-in-law seemed to have some relationship problems, and they have been separated for a long time. Yesterday, I went to see Xinran, and she said she wanted to be with her
Meng's son-in-law is divorced, but Meng's son-in-law insists on getting the consent of the prince and the princess. This time, I just want to ask the princess to agree to Xinran's request."
