Chapter 3 Sister, when did you have your daughter?
Lu Ze recalled seeing Qi Yuning's eyes full of cold hatred on Longhua Mountain during the day, and he hated the Lu family to the core.
Even if she doesn't have a marriage contract, Princess Qi will never marry another Lu family member because of her pride.
Princess Pingrou looked at her eldest son. Her eldest son was very good at growing up. He specifically picked out her and Lu's consort for their good looks. It wasn't her mother's boasting, but her son's appearance was the best in Shengjing. Beautiful man, how can a girl not be tempted?
"No, my son is so good-looking, Princess Qi will definitely fall in love with you!"
Princess Pingrou said earnestly: "Ze'er, in order not to be demoted to Cangzhou, our family of four is counting on you to marry the princess."
Lu Ze said: "Mom, breaking off the engagement is not a trivial matter. The Guan family has been kind to my grandmother. How can I repay the favor and break off the engagement? I will go to Prince Qi's Mansion tomorrow morning to apologize. I will send it to Princess Qi until Princess Qi is relieved."
Princess Pingrou sighed and felt panicked. She tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep, for fear that she would be demoted to Cangzhou.
Unlike Princess Pingrou who couldn't sleep all night because she was worried about being demoted, Qi Yuning slept soundly.
Especially in the second half of the night, the night was cold after autumn, but Qi Yuning always felt that there was a small stove in his arms, which was warm and fragrant, and his sleep became more and more comfortable.
The maid came in at three o'clock in the morning and called Qi Yuning to get up. As soon as she opened the curtain, she was startled and said, "Princess, Princess!"
Qi Yuning woke up slowly when he heard the maid's voice. He felt a little dazed for a moment, opened his eyes and said, "Beijing Chun, what are you doing with that murmuring so early in the morning?"
Li Chun pointed at Qi Yuning's arms and said tremblingly: "Princess, Princess, in your arms..."
Qi Yuning lowered his head and saw a little girl of about three years old sleeping sweetly in her arms.
The little girl has long hair, a small round face and a chubby face. She is wearing a light pink underwear.
Qi Yuning looked at Li Chun in surprise, "Where did this child come from?"
Beginning of Spring was also very curious, "Last night, after the servant had taken a rest after serving the princess, he and Gu Yu stayed at the door. I never saw any children come in..."
A little girl suddenly appeared on the bed, and Qi Yuning was very surprised.
If it hadn't hurt when pinching herself, she would have thought she was still dreaming.
Gu Yu and a group of maids came in with a basin to help Qi Yuning wash up. They were also slightly startled when they saw the children on Qi Yuning's bed.
Qi Yuning reached out and touched her peaceful sleeping face, which was soft and soft.
The little girl moved her hands after being touched on her face. She clenched her cute, soft little hands into fists and rubbed her sleepy face.
When the little girl put down her little fist, she opened her eyes, and Qi Yuning finally saw her face clearly.
I saw that the little girl had a pair of peach blossom eyes and a tall little nose. She looked exactly like Lu Ze when he was a child.
However, Lu Ze's appearance was more solemn and steady, and this little girl's appearance was even more cute.
"Mother, dear!"
When the little girl saw Qi Yuning, she stretched out her two little arms to wrap around Qi Yuning's neck, and threw herself into Qi Yuning's arms.
Qi Yuning was stunned when he saw a child with a milky voice calling him mother, "What did you call me?"
Li Chun said repeatedly: "Where did the child come from? Please don't make any noise and ruin the reputation of my princess. My princess is still an unmarried woman named Yunying. She has just turned eighteen. There is no way she can give birth to a child as old as you."
When the little girl heard the sound, she turned around and shouted: "Auntie Lichun, Auntie Guyu!"
Qi Yuning was surprised to see the little girl in his arms, "Do you know Lichun and Guyu?"
The little girl nodded and said, "Yeah, dear, mother."
Qi Yuning held the little girl and felt the smell of milk. She rubbed the little girl's head and asked, "What's your name?"
The little girl smiled sweetly: "Mom, have you forgotten Lingling's name? Lingling's name is Lu Yiling."
Hearing the word Yi Ling, Qi Yuning began to look at the little girl's appearance.
Yi Ling, when her mother died, she had an eight-month-old child in her that time, the imperial doctors said she was a younger sister. Qi Yuning was only four years old at the time, and her mother gave her unborn sister a name, Yi Ling.
However, the younger sister was not born in the end, and few people knew the word Yi Ling.
Qi Yuning once thought that if he had a daughter in the future, she would be called Yi Ling, but this little girl was also called Yi Ling...
Qi Yuning rubbed little Ling'er's fine hair: "Lingling, what is your father's name?"
Xiao Ling'er tilted her head and said, "Daddy, just call me daddy."
Qi Yuning saw that the child was too young, so he probably couldn't ask anything because the child's appearance was too strange.
Qi Yuning saw that the little Lingling looked like a member of the Lu family, and his surname was Lu. Could it be Lu Baozhu's fault again?
Hiding the doubts in her heart, Qi Yuning thought about washing the little Lingling after she had finished washing. However, there had been no children in Prince Qi's mansion for a long time, so Li Chun had to go to the street and buy clothes for the little Lingling. Put it on.
The beginning of spring is also very fast. I bought clothes and shoes in less than two quarters of an hour. The little Lingling wearing a pink skirt and a bun is really cute.
Qi Yuning was a little envious of Lingling's parents. It was a blessing to have such a daughter.
Little Lingling raised her eyes and looked at Qi Yuning and said, "Mom, where is daddy?"
As soon as Qi Yuning took Lingling out of the door, she met Qi Yuan who came to see her.
Qi Yu'an saw his sister leading a three-year-old girl out and asked, "Sister, whose child is this?"
"uncle!"
Seeing Qi Yuan in front of her, Xiao Lingling smiled sweetly, let go of Qi Yuning's hand, and pounced on Qi Yuan.
"Uncle, give me a hug!"
Qi Yu'an picked up the little girl and looked at Qi Yuning in surprise, "Sister, when did you have a daughter? Why does your daughter look so similar to that guy Lu Ze?"
Qi Yuning looked at the little Ling'er in front of him in confusion. Qi Yuan was in the military camp all the year round, and there were very few people who knew him in Shengjing City. There was no reason why the little Lingling had met her brother before, and he called her brother so affectionately, as if Qi Yuan is like her uncle.
Lingling was hugged by Qi Yuan and giggled: "Uncle, didn't you say you would bring a pony for Lingling when you came back? Where is the pony?"
Seeing the little girl in front of him, Qi Yu'an only felt friendly and said with a smile: "Good niece, you and I have met for the first time today. When did I say that I would give you a pony?"
Lingling tilted her head and said, "My uncle said during the Lantern Festival a few days ago that I would give it to Lingling's little pony."
Qi Yu'an rubbed Lingling's bun, "It's already the Mid-Autumn Festival now, how come the Lantern Festival is just a few days ago?"
Lingling's little peach blossom eyes were also full of shock, "But mother said that the Lantern Festival has just happened. During the Lantern Festival, dad won many beautiful lanterns by guessing lantern riddles."
Qi Yuan looked at Qi Yuning, "Sister, is she really your daughter? Who is her father?"
Lingling looked at the three-year-old's appearance. If Qi Yuning really wanted to give birth to her, she would be pregnant at the age of 14. What kind of beast made her pregnant before her sister was born? Qi Yuning said slowly: "Brother, you won't believe it if I tell you. She was on my bed as soon as I woke up. She called me mother as soon as she opened her eyes."
Qi Yu'an raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked Qi Yuning and Lingling to have a meal first.
Qi Yuan called for the guards and secret guards of Prince Qi's Mansion to inquire. None of the guards noticed how Xiao Lingling suddenly arrived in Qi Yuning's room.
The Qi family was heavily guarded, and the secret guards around Qi Yuning were trained by his grandfather. Normally not even a sparrow could get in.
If even the bodyguards and secret guards couldn't find out how this child got into Qi Yuning's room, that would be really strange.
Qi Yuan asked the maid to look after the little Lingling and called Qi Yuning aside.
"Sister, tell the truth. Is Lingling the child you gave birth to in secret? There are secret guards in the palace watching, how could such a big child appear out of thin air?"
Qi Yuning said helplessly: "Brother, over the years, I, the daughter of the Shengjing family, have been attending all the banquets. How could I have concealed my pregnancy for ten months? The origin of this child is indeed unknown."
Qi Yuan thought about it and said, "I think this child recognizes you as his mother. What do you plan to do with this child?"
