Shen Miao understood now. Princess Rong Xin clearly had her own agenda. She definitely did not invite Shen Miao here just for a chit-chat. Princess Rong Xin must have her own plans.
However, Shen Miao could not refuse.
She said, “Sure.”
To Jingzhe and Gu Yu’s surprise, the “courtyard” where Princess Rong Xin brought Shen Miao turned out to be a side courtyard. There were no lanterns at the door at night, so they could not see the words on the plaque.
Princess Rong Xin held Shen Miao’s hand and stepped into the house. She smiled and said, “This courtyard is called Xingzhi Courtyard.”
Shen Miao’s heart skipped a beat. She knew what Princess Rong Xin was going to say next.
As expected, as soon as Princess Rong Xin entered the room, she stroked the furnishings on the shelf with both hands and smiled. “This is where Jingxing used to live.”
Jingzhe and Gu Yu followed behind. When they heard this, they were a little surprised. Was this the place where the young marquis of Lin’an lived?
“Jingxing lost his mother when he was young. After Yuqing died, I took pity on him because he had a rough life at a young age. I was also angry with the Marquis of Lin’an for taking in a concubine and causing a mess in the house. Yuqing had a bitter life. Before she died, she was even called a jealous woman. At that time, I was furious and was afraid that Concubine Fang would use some sinister methods on Jingxing, so I brought him home to raise him.”
“Jingxing was born very naughty and was very close to me. I don’t have a son, so I thought it would be good to keep Jingxing by my side. Later, I built a courtyard for him here.”
When Princess Rong Xin mentioned these things, she was lost in thought. As she described, Shen Miao seemed to be able to see a baby crying. Fortunately, Shen Miao’s parents were both healthy and doted on her very much. Although she was estranged from her parents because the second and third branches of the Shen family were sowing discord, she could at least make up for it. However, Xie Jingxing had never had a mother since he was born.
Or rather, as soon as he was born, the sad and pitiful role was thrust upon him.
“Jingxing was raised very well by me. The Marquis of Lin’an came to ask for him a few times, but I didn’t let Jingxing go back. However, later on, Concubine Fang also gave birth to two sons, so I returned Jingxing.” Princess Rong Xin turned to look at Shen Miao. “Do you know why?”
Shen Miao thought for a moment and said, “Because Young Marquis Xie is the legitimate son of the Marquis of Lin’an. If Young Marquis Xie continues to stay with you, he will be taken advantage of by the two illegitimate sons of Concubine Fang . Perhaps the position of the Marquis of Lin’an will fall into their hands in the future.”
When Princess Rong Xin heard that, she smiled and said, “I’ve long known that you’re a perceptive person. When I was your age, I definitely wouldn’t have thought of this.”
Shen Miao smiled and did not comment. Of course, as a young girl, she wouldn’t have thought of this. However, she was once a mother of two children. If it were Wanyu and Fu Ming, she would also let them go back. What right did others have to take away what was theirs?
“Although Jingxing went back, he and I still have a very good relationship. It’s said that blood is thicker than water. I was afraid that once he went back, he would be fooled by despicable people and would hold a grudge against me and Yuqing. However, what surprised me and made me happy is that his relationship with the Marquis of Lin’an has never been very good. No matter how the Marquis of Lin’an pleases him, he still lives the way he wants. Sometimes, I think that he and the Marquis of Lin’an really don’t look like a father and son.”
