Chapter 154 The Noble Boy
In order to save her breath, she chose to keep having children, and finally gave birth to another daughter. At that time, she really wanted to die.

Later, the youngest daughter unfortunately died, and she prayed to gods and Buddha everywhere, and finally got her wish at the fifth birth.

This was a son who had come with great difficulty, but her confidence in her in-law's family was her darling.

Concerned about it, Hongyan panicked immediately, and hurriedly asked: "How did you lose it, and where did you lose it?"

Seeing her appearance like this, the servant girl was also terrified, so she quickly replied:

"The servants accompanied the young master to play hide-and-seek in the corridor, and within a blink of an eye, the young master disappeared.

Hongyan's face sank, and she asked in a vicious voice:

"What's the matter with you guys, so many people can't look down on a child?"

"Ma'am, don't worry, the young lady has already led other people to look for it. Every gate of the Mausoleum Palace is guarded, and the young master can't get out."

"Prince Mausoleum's mansion is so big, there are mountains and water. Although the mountain is a fake mountain, the water is real water. What if someone falls into the water, can you take the responsibility?"

Knowing that she has a heavy responsibility, this girl couldn't help suggesting: "Madam, why don't you ask the housekeeper of the palace to send us more people."

Although Hongyan was anxious, she still had another consideration in her heart, she didn't want her family to turn this Lingwang's mansion upside down within a few days.

"No, it's better for us to look around first, and make plans if we can't find it."

The two hurried to the direction where the child was lost...

Fortunately, as soon as the two of them arrived at the other end of the corridor, someone came to report that they had been found, and it was the eldest lady who found them.

After seeing her son, Hongyan severely criticized her.

This Xu Qi was not afraid of her, he just blinked at her aggrievedly, Hongyan's heart immediately softened when she saw this, and hugged and kissed her son.

"Qi'er, promise mother, don't run around anymore, okay, mother will worry."

Xu Qi nodded: "Understood."

"That's good!" She reached out and touched her son's head: "Where did you go, how did your eldest sister find you? Hey, where is your eldest sister?"

Only then did Hongyan realize that her eldest daughter was not by her son's side.

But Xu Qi said, "Eldest sister is in that place where everything is tattered and dark."

After hearing this, Hongyan couldn't help laughing: "Nonsense, this mausoleum mansion is so rich, how can there be such a dilapidated place?"

Following behind was Ping Zhu, a maid assigned by the palace, who brought the young master back from the eldest lady. She took a step forward and explained: "Madam, the young master is talking about the East Court."

"East Courtyard?" Hongyan felt sorry for it now: "You mean the East Courtyard where Princess Ling lived?"

Pingzhu nodded: "The east courtyard has been burned, so it looks a bit broken, but I heard that the prince has ordered it to be repaired. I believe that in time, the east courtyard will definitely look brand new."

Hongyan nodded, and she taught her son: "Qi'er, don't go there to play anymore, you know?"

"Why not, it's fun over there."

Hongyan thought to herself: Because people were burned to death in that place, it is unlucky, silly boy.

Since the maid of the palace was behind her, she didn't dare to speak so bluntly, she just said: "Look at you running so far, mother is worried to death, let's not go there, okay?"

Xu Qi nodded.

She thought of her eldest daughter, so she handed the child in her arms to her maid, and asked Pingzhu to lead the way, and the two headed to the east courtyard...

"Ma'am, the east courtyard is ahead." Pingzhu reminded.

Hongyan nodded, needless to say she could see it herself.

What came into view was a large area of ​​ruins, with traces of fire everywhere, and it was hard to tell which pavilions were pavilions.

She followed Pingzhu around a pile of broken brick walls, and the more she walked inside, the more frightened she became.

In front of my eyes were charcoal-burned pillars and black bricks and tiles. One can imagine how tragic the fire was at that time...

Thinking that her elder sister-in-law was burned alive here, she suddenly felt that it was not good to be mixed up and down.

She thought to herself, Bijun, a silly girl, what's the point of staying in such a ghostly place, she's frightened herself.

The master and the servant passed through a dilapidated room, and finally heard the voice of her daughter speaking from the front, Hongyan finally let go of the big stone in her heart, thinking about catching that stinky girl and scolding her for a while.

When she looked up, she saw her daughter leaning against a broken wall, talking with a boy of similar age.

The two seemed to be chatting quite closely.

That young man is handsome, dressed luxuriously, and his mannerisms are very dignified; Hongyan has heard about it for a long time, and heard that the old concubine's natal family has a relative who has settled down in the Mausoleum Palace, could it be the son of the Gao family?

She couldn't help but stopped, and turned her head to ask the maid next to her, "Pingzhu, do you know who this young man in red is from the palace?"

Pingzhu replied: "Ma'am, that is Zhao Yi, the eldest son of our palace."

Hongyan was slightly taken aback, this is Zhao Yi?How could Xu Weiqiu, his nephew, give birth to such an outstanding child?
Looking at the distance, the two children were talking and laughing, very close.

Unknowingly, a bold idea sprouted in Hongyan's heart...

She stopped the maid from coming forward, and whispered: "Shut up, let's go back..."

Soon, the two quietly left the east courtyard along the original road.

In the evening, after dinner, Hongyan came to the eldest daughter's boudoir, and saw her daughter was tidying up in front of the mirror, she couldn't help but move her feet towards her.

Seeing her through the mirror, Xu Bijun called out, "Mom!"

Hongyan smiled, came behind her daughter, picked up a comb and tidied her long hair that was hanging down her back.

While combing, he looked at his daughter's appearance and asked, "What did Jun'er and Wang Shizi talk about today, and they chatted so happily?"

When Xu Bijun heard the words, there was a trace of surprise on his face: "Mother saw it?"

"Well, mother is worried about you, so I went to find you."

Xu Bijun bowed his head: "The palace is very safe, there is nothing to worry about."

"Tell mom, what did you talk about?"

"Just chatted about the scenery of our Lanyang County and some delicious food."

"Wang Shizi knows that you are his cousin?"

"Yeah." Xu Bijun nodded, "I told him."

"If you tell him, he will believe it?"

"Yeah." Xu Bijun nodded, "He said he could see it."

Hongyan couldn't help but think of what Xu Xiaoke said that day, if her daughter was really similar to Princess Ling, it wouldn't be surprising for the prince to see it....

"Mother, Prince Wang must miss his eldest aunt very much."

Hongyan was lost in thought, when her daughter suddenly said this.

"Why do you say that, Jun'er?"
