The Fourth Lady
Chapter 294 Future Mother-in-law (Ⅰ)

After hearing what Murong Jingxuan said, Zhongli Jingshu nodded her head, "Okay, if you're telling the truth, I will be really satisfied with her."

Murong Jingxuan looked at them and nodded earnestly. "Okay. I'll go and inform Yanyan. She'll give you a surprise gift. Then, she won't lose face in front of her future mother-in-law." Watching Murong Jingxuan's receding figure, Zhongli Jingshu turned to Wenxuan Lord and asked, "honey, which kind of person Marquis Dingguo is? And which prince does my son support?"

Wenxuan Lord looked at Zhongli Jingshu and said with a smile, "don't worry, honey. My son will certainly arrange everything. And we don't need to interfere. Sooner or later, my military power will be inherited by my son." Hearing what Wenxuan Lord said, Zhongli Jingshu lowered her head and said, "it's all my fault. I haven't been with him for so many years. It's lucky that Jingxuan doesn't blame me. Otherwise, I don't know what to do." "Honey, it's their own business. After I give the military leadership to Jingxuan, I'll take you to go wherever you go and leave all the affairs in the world to the younger generation. But Jingxuan is not interested in the politics at all."

With her head resting on the shoulder of Wenxuan Lord, Zhongli Jingshu said, "husband, you know, once upon a time, Qilian Qingyan also had such a dream. If one day I can help her to realize it, I will be very happy." Wenxuan Lord hugged Zhongli Jingshu on her shoulder and said, "Honey, we are all going to be happy. Even if Empress Xianyi is gone, she must be sad to see you like this."

Looking at Wenxuan Lord, Zhongli Jingshu nodded and said, "you're right. Yanyan also wants me to be happy, so we should try to smile at this moment."

Wenxuan Lord remembered that Murong Jingxuan had mentioned Su Qingyan. Then he looked at Zhongli Jingshu and asked with a serious look, "is it true that the imperial concubine's adoptive daughter is so capable?"

Zhongli Jingshu nodded her head. "Yeah. You are right. I heard from the imperial concubine that girl was very capable. Their name was so alike, so I thought she might have some similarities with Qilian Wingyan. But I was wrong, she is not like Qilian Qingyan at all." "What do you mean?" Wenxuan Lord was surprised. He looked at Zhongli Jingshu and asked, "is it because this girl is cunning?"

Zhongli Jingshu shook her head when she looked at Wenxuan Lord. "Qilian Qingyan used to be a gentle and considerate girl, but now this Su Qingyan is a cruel and calculating girl."

"I'm worried that she might hurt my son."

Seeing the worried look on Zhongli Jingshu's face, Wenxuan Lord shook his head and said, "don't worry, husband. When I meet that girl, I'll know what kind of person she is."

Hearing what Zhongli Jingshu said, Wenxuan Lord nodded his head and said, "you're right."

When Murong Jingxuan found Qingyan, she was playing on the swing. Baihu was lying beside her, not willing to moving at all.

"Miss, Murong Shizi has come." Zizhu looked at Qingyan and said with a serious look.

Hearing that, Qingyan saw Murong Jingxuan standing in front of her. She yawned and said, "what brings you here? I thought you would stay with your parents."

Murong Jingxuan found a seat beside her and sat down. Baizhi served him a cup of tea very soon. He walked up to Qingyan, pushed the swing and said with a smile, "a few days later, it's my mother's birthday. Yanyan, would you like to come?"

Hearing his words, Qingyan stood up at once. She looked at him in surprise and asked, "you want me to meet my future mother-in-law?"

On hearing this, Murong Jingxuan nodded his head and responded, "yes, I just want you to meet your future mother-in-law! Besides, you haven't seen my mother for a long time."

Hearing what Murong Jingxuan said, Qingyan knew what he really meant. She looked at him for a moment and then nodded earnestly. "Since I am going to see my future mother-in-law, I have to prepare a big gift for her. How about the snacks from the Nanchen Kingdom? They used to her favorite."

Upon hearing her words, Murong Jingxuan knew that Qingyan was looking forward to seeing his mother very much, especially judging from the expression on her face.

Seeing the smile on her face, Murong Jingxuan said, "you can make your own decision. I'm sure my mother will like it."

"If so, I'll cook her favorite desserts, especially my handmade ones," Qingyan added.

"But what if my mother is suspicious of me?" Murong Jingxuan asked concernedly. Fortunately, the imperial concubine has not told your secrets to my mother. I think it's because she respects your decision."

Qingyan looked at Murong Jingxuan and nodded. "She has promised me that she wouldn't tell anyone. After all, the less people know about it, the better."

Murong Jingxuan knew what Qingyan meant. After all, he didn't want to put her in danger, especially in such a situation.

Although she was protected by the members of the Wanshou Pavilion and she was good at martial arts, no one could guarantee that accidents would not happen to her. Especially when it came to her special identity.

"Yanyan, what if my mother became suspicious your identity?" Murong Jingxuan looked at Qingyan and asked seriously.

His mother, Zhongli Jingshu had a rigorous character. Although she looked gentle and graceful, only he knew that his mother was not someone to be bullied. It seemed that she didn't care about those things, as Wenxuan Lord didn't like his concubine at all.

"Of course I know how to deal with it." Looking at him, Qingyan smiled. "This time, Wenxuan Lord takes his concubine with him?"

"They still want to stay in the Capital City. As for the two idiots, I don't care." Murong Jingxuan looked at Qingyan and nodded seriously.

Qingyan knew about the two sons of the concubine, who were once mentioned in Jingshu's letters. They were quite scheming. They were good at playing with power and wanted to get their own position. Unfortunately, Wenxuan Lord didn't pay much attention to them, let alone that concubine.00000000
