Chapter 19 The Concubine
On the other hand, Mrs. Qi and shopkeeper Luo had already negotiated, and finally she bought the Songhe Yannian wood carving at a price of 800 taels, and shopkeeper Luo gave her a bunch of agarwood bracelets.

On the way back, Mrs. Qi praised Yan Li again, and then Qi Tanying remembered that she didn't seem to tell her mother about Yan Li's identity.

So he took this opportunity to tell his mother that Yan Li was the Chancellor Yansi whom he had seen before.

Mrs. Qi was really surprised when she heard the words, and after a while she said: "Your aunt has always had a good eye, and she won't let you see those that are too bad."

Mrs. Qi met Yan Li twice in the past two days, and she felt that this man's appearance and manners were all right, and his age did not look like a 30-year-old.

In any case, it is much more pleasing to the eye than Prince Wu of Pingninghou Mansion.

At this time, Mrs. Qi never expected that Wu Han, whom she disliked, would come to Jiang's house the next day to apologize to their mother and daughter.

When Wu Han came to Jiang's house, Jiang Liangyu Xiumu was at home, so he asked a friend to take him to visit Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi was very puzzled. They are both officials of Dali Temple, so they have to separate each other to make an apology?
It's just that they didn't accept Yan Li's compensation, so naturally they couldn't accept Wu Han's.

Wu Han seemed to have expected that they would not accept it, and asked Jiang Liangyu to hand it over for him.

He prepared an apology for Mrs. Qi and Qi Tanying respectively. The one for Mrs. Qi was a green jade bracelet, and the one for Qi Tanying was a pink and white cherry blossom hosta.

The moment she saw the hairpin, Qi Tanying couldn't help being surprised.

Mrs. Qi hurriedly asked her what was wrong, and Qi Tanying looked complicated, "I saw this hairpin in Lingyun Pavilion last time, and thought it was not worth it, so I didn't buy it. Prince Wu was also there at that time."

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi immediately understood that this hairpin was obviously bought by Wu Han as a gift for his daughter.

All of a sudden, she had a bold guess in her mind, the owner of Qi Yi Zhai must be Wu Han, right?It was a discount and a gift, seeing that they did not fall into the trap, they even came to Jiang's mansion to give them something.

Could it be that he has taken a fancy to his own daughter?
The more she thought about it, the more something went wrong. Mrs. Qi felt that she had to meet Wu Han to see what he was up to.

In order to avoid having long nights and dreams, she immediately called Jiang Liangyu and asked him to ask Wu Han out in her own name.

Jiang Liangyu followed suit.

That afternoon, Wu Han came to the appointment, and when he saw Mrs. Qi, he knew that someone else had made an appointment with him today.

Mrs. Qi went straight to the point, saying that his compensation was too expensive to accept, and then returned the things to him intact.

Wu Han looked at the returned gifts, and the smile on his face faded a little.

Then he heard Mrs. Qi ask him, "Does Mr. Wu know what it means for a man to give an unmarried girl a hairpin?"

Mrs. Qi thought, if he said he didn't know, the matter would be over.Unexpectedly, Wu Han's next words caught her by surprise.

"I like Miss Qi, that's why I gave her a hairpin."

Mrs. Qi never expected that he would admit it directly. Just as she was thinking about how to answer the conversation, she saw Wu Han bowing his hands to her solemnly, "I am very pleased with Miss Qi, and I would like to welcome her into my Pingning as a noble concubine." Hou Mansion, I hope Mrs. Qi will agree."

"What did you say?"

Mrs. Qi looked at him in astonishment, "Who do you want to take as your concubine?"

Wu Han said Qi Tanying's name.

"You're dreaming!" Mrs. Qi's face turned red when she heard this, and her anger shot straight to the top of her head.

The more Mrs. Qi thought about it, the more angry she became, she lost her mind for a while, and cursed: "What are you, why should I let my daughter be your concubine? You and your aunt and cousin are the same, they rely on their power to grab you. You will marry someone, but you are greedy for beauty and force you to become a concubine."

Wu Han's face suddenly turned cold, "Mrs. Qi, please be careful."

"You've done it but people can't say it. Now it's time to remind people to be cautious. What did you do in the first place?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi reasoned with him loudly: "Could it be that your cousin didn't snatch my daughter's marriage contract, or that you didn't covet my daughter?

This world is the world of the sage, not the world of Changxing Prince's Mansion and Pingninghou Mansion.

If I really want to drive people to a dead end, even if I try my best, I will go to Qiananmen to knock on Dengwengu, let the sage, let the people of the world judge, whether it is my Qi family who is wrong, or you are bullying others! "

Mrs. Qi has lived for decades, and she has never been as angry as she is today. If she didn't still have a sliver of reason, she would be able to say even worse things.

These words made Wu Han's face turn as cold as ice, and a frightening hostility gushed out of his body.

After Mrs. Qi looked at him, she felt apprehensive, and quickly called Jiang Liangyu from the next door.

When Jiang Liangyu came in, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mrs. Qi hurriedly told him the truth.

Jiang Liangyu was silent for a moment, then helped Mrs. Qi sit aside, and brought tea to her.

After doing all this, he looked at Wu Han, "Tianming, you have gone too far this time."

Wu Han didn't answer the conversation at first, but suddenly said after a while, "Given the family background of the Qi family, I don't insult her by giving her the title of noble concubine."

"Being a concubine is not a disgrace, so what is it?" Mrs. Qi stood up and argued with him.

Jiang Liangyu quickly comforted her: "Auntie, please calm down first, can you leave this matter to me?" He assured her that he would definitely dispel Wu Han's idea of ​​taking a concubine.

Out of trust in Jiang Liangyu, Mrs. Qi agreed.

Jiang Liangyu looked at Wu Han again, and asked him in a very soft tone: "Tianming, if someone told you today that he wants to take Yu'er as a concubine, and she is the concubine, how do you feel about being a brother?"

Yu'er is Wu Han's biological sister.

Wu Han's eyelids slightly closed when he heard this, if someone really forced his sister to be a concubine, what would he do?
"I will kill everyone who persecutes her." This is Wu Han's answer.

Hearing this, Jiang Liangyu smiled mockingly, "Don't do to others what you don't want to be done to others, now you should understand how my aunt feels."

After a few breaths of silence, Wu Han gradually restrained the hostility around him, and his cold expression showed signs of melting.

Jiang Liangyu took the opportunity to say: "I have always treated Cousin A Tan as my own sister, if you still treat me as a friend, then stop talking about taking her as a concubine in the future."

Wu Han remained silent.

Jiang Liangyu pointed in the direction of the imperial palace, "If the person in the palace knows that you have something to belong to, I'm afraid there will be no more peaceful days."

These words froze Wu Han's face instantly, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "I won't bring up the matter of taking a concubine in the future."
-
Due to preparations for the birthday ceremony, there was a lot of trouble for no reason, so Mrs. Qi and Qi Tanying did not go there on Mrs. Li's birthday, so Mrs. Jiang only asked Mrs. Jiang to help bring the Songhe Yannian wood carving to Li's house.

Mrs. Jiang went happily in the morning, but she came back in the afternoon with a look of anger.Mrs. Qi didn't know why, but after asking, she found out that Jiang Zhi and Jiang Zhenyu got into trouble at Mrs. Li's birthday banquet.

By chance, she became the concubine of the King of Dongling. Later, after giving birth to a son, the mother was made a side concubine because of her son.

One person attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven, and the Bai family rose as a result.

When Jiang Zhi and the sixth girl of the Bai family were playing the game of throwing pots, they had a quarrel with Miss Bai Liu because she couldn't stand her arrogance. Jiang Zhenyu fought with Miss Bai Liu's elder brother in order to protect her sister.
