The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 121

Although Murong Jingxuan doesn't know the inside story, hearing Qingyan say it like so, he suddenly became interested. Every time, he was able to hear different kinds of information from Qingyan's mouth. He knew that this time, just like before, Qingyan won't let him be disappointed.

Looking over Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong, the corner of Qingyan's mouth curved up, "Let Fengqing send them back first."

"Okay." Murong Jingxuan replied as he instructed Fengqing to send Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong back to the Su manor. Before getting on the horse carriage, the two stared at the expressionless Su Qingyan.

Qingyan turned to them with a smile, "Don't worry, there won't be anyone that will bully you."

Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong looked to Qingyan and earnestly nodded. Afterwards, they obediently got on the horse carriage.

Qingyan watched the horse carriage ride into the distance, then glanced to the grave again. "Let's return to the city too. After all, this isn't a place to converse."

At last, the place they decided on was still Julong Zhai. However, this time there was only the two of them.

Su Qingyan told Murong Jingxuan one by one all the information regarding the affair between De Consort and Ninth Wang, and even clearly expressed that the Third Prince, Xuanyuan Yuzhe, isn't Hongjia Emperor's biological son.

This is also the reason why the Ninth Wang, Xuanyuan Shi, is so concerned with Xuanyuan Yuzhe. Even going as far as to want to help Xuanyuan Yuzhe scheme and usurp the throne. It's just a shame that Xuanyuan Yuzhe followed after Xuanyuan Shi's personality, and is completely unconcerned about the matters of the imperial court. Instead, he prefers to linger around brothels more.

Murong Jingxuan knew the capabilities of the Thousand Beast Pavilion in gathering information, yet he didn't expect that they were able to gather even the behind the scene information of the Imperial family. Looks like his Seven Star Hall, aside from excelling in martial arts, when it comes to gathering information, they completely fall behind the Thousand Beast Pavilion.

"Didn't the Third Prince recently brought a bunch of women into his courtyard? Even the old Emperor feels disinclined to lecture him." Murong Jingxuan reluctantly spoke as he drank the tea, "However, it's better this way, Fourth Prince will have one less person to deal with."

Qingyan looked to Murong Jingxuan and likewise, calmly drank the tea. "I need to go back. As for the Dragon Gate Banquet, I'll also make preparations. After all, I also look forward to the Dragon Gate Banquet more than anyone."

Murong Jingxuan felt uneasy about letting Qingyan go back alone, so he let Fengluo go with Qingyan to send her back to the Su manor. And when they arrived at the Su manor entrance, they saw Su Yun and Luo Bing just returning from the army barracks.

"Father, mother, you're back?" Qingyan walked up next to Su Yun smiling, "Did anything bad happen today?"

Luo Bing smiled, patting Su Qingyan on the head, "What could possibly happen at the army barracks?"

Qingyan looked to Su Yun and Luo Bing before her and nodded with a smile. Afterwards, they entered into the General manor together.

Although the General manor is large, there were also quite a few servants. Thus, the giant General manor appeared even more lively, especially since all the people here were worthy of trust.

And this was probably what 'home' feels like.

At the dinner table, Qingyan recalled her earlier promise at the grave site, and thus looked to Su Yun. Qingyan looked up to him with a smile, "Father, I was thinking, since Yiniang is dead, fifth sister and Cong'er won't have anyone to look after them. How about we adopt them over and raise them at father's knee, what do you think?"

Su Yun looked to Qingyan and then glanced to the other two at the table. "Yan'er, if they are willing, father naturally won't object either. After all, third brother doesn't have any feelings towards these two children either. Also, we aren't often at the manor. If they can keep you company, then naturally it's a good thing too."

Hearing Su Yun's words, Qingyan nodded, "Fifth sister, Cong'er, are you willing to become my parent's son and daughter?"
