Chu Qingwan was very sure that during the half-year stay in the Chu family, she had never seen Jin An, and it was impossible for the other party to recognize her. But what did this mean?
Had she already investigated herself and come here to test her? Then shouldn’t she have concealed something?
Chu Qingwan was shocked and confused, but his face didn't reveal anything, and he said, "I wonder who the princess is talking about?"
Jin'an said: "The daughter of Chu Huaian, the Minister of Household Affairs."
Chu Qingwan said: "People's girls have nothing to do with Chu Mansion."
This is the Chu Qingwan who admitted that she is the Chu Mansion.
Jin'an's eyes dimmed a bit.
She had also heard about what happened back then. Since her reputation was ruined, it would be useless even if she enchanted the country and the city.
Jin'an didn't stay with Chu Qingwan for long, and sent her away after chatting for a few words casually.
Seeing her walking away, the maid said: "Princess, whose family is this young lady? I have never seen such a stunning woman in my entire life."
Jin'an didn't say anything, but sighed: "She is more eye-catching than those young ladies from aristocratic families, which is a pity."
His reputation is ruined and his body is ruined. No matter how good he is, it is all in vain.

After coming out of Shoukanghou's Mansion, Chu Qing went to Lanlingzhai as originally planned. He waited until the sun was setting to pick up the three little ones and the old man, and then returned to Taoranju at the tail end of the setting sun.
After dinner, she pushed Mo Jingyu back to the palace for acupuncture.
After thinking about it, she said: "Your Majesty, Princess Jin'an invited me to Shoukang Hou Mansion today."
Mo Jingyu looked stern: "What did she ask you to do?"
Chu Qingwan replied: "It's commonplace to gossip."
Mo Jingyu showed a ridiculous expression.
Gossip? Either Jin An is crazy or she is crazy!
Chu Qingwan found out that he didn't believe it, and she thought it was outrageous, so she relayed her conversation with Jin'an to him.
Mo Jingyu was silent after hearing this, and then snorted coldly.
Chu Qingwan thought about it over and over again, and now she felt something strange, and asked him: "Your Majesty, has the eldest princess heard some rumors and gone wrong?"
It wasn't that she was overly worried, but Jin'an's questioning was really like a mother-in-law meeting her daughter-in-law.
Mo Jingyu didn't answer and asked: "What are you trying to do?"
Chu Qingwan blurted out: "I think we have an affair."
A low laugh escaped from Mo Jingyu's lips, and he said: "No?"
Chu Qingwan begged: "My lord, please tell me what kind of medicine the eldest princess is selling in this gourd, so that I won't say the wrong thing next time."
Mo Jingyu saw her facial features crowded together and asked funnyly: "Are you afraid of her?"
That's not true, I just don't want to cause any trouble.
Chu Qingwan answered in her heart, but nodded wildly: "Of course I'm afraid, she is the eldest princess, the emperor's sister. If she is unhappy, she can kill my nine clans."
There was no hint of fear in this tone.
Mo Jingyu didn't expose her and said, "It doesn't matter, I will protect you."
Chu Qingwan's heart skipped a beat.
When she was weak, no one told her this. Now that she has become stronger, she is the one who protects others. She never knew that this sentence has a heart-stopping power.
She pursed her lips and whispered: "Oh."
Mo Jingyu added: "If she comes to you in the future, just refuse her if you don't want to."
Chu Qingwan pushed him into Haitang Courtyard: "What should I do if I anger her?"
Mo Jingyu smiled: "I'm here, what are you afraid of?"
Chu Qingwan was squatting in front of him, ready to roll up his pants.
Hearing this, she paused with her fingertips and looked up at him. He also lowered his eyes, their eyes met, and he was stunned at the same time.
The chirping of cicadas in midsummer is annoying, but at this moment, the sound is surprisingly quiet. Together with the rapid heartbeat and the breeze passing through the hall, it becomes an endless pounding echo.
Chu Qingwan lowered his head suddenly, his ears turning red.
