Chapter 171 The Arrogant Son

With the lessons learned from last time, he lightly changed into men's clothes, smeared his face, rode all the way, and arrived at the Prince's Mansion of Xiangnan County in two days.

The sun was high, and he squinted his eyes lightly, holding the sunshade with his hands, and looked up at the big gilt characters of the Prince's Mansion in Xiangnan County.He lowered his head, and a pair of huge jade unicorns from the town house on both sides stared at him.

The guards on both sides are warriors with golden armor and helmets, very solemn and majestic, unlike the tight outside and tight inside of the Jin Palace.This facade is very scary.

Once upon a time, she also imagined in her heart the luxury and grandeur of the grandfather's mansion.She was newly married to the King of Jin, and a large jar of blood and jade phoenix carvings was a congratulatory gift, so she could see the luxury of the county prince's mansion.

As he was looking at it, he suddenly spat: "Do your eyes all grow from the back?!"

"During the day, the county palace let a beggar stand here?!"

Startled slightly, a young man in fine clothes and jade clothes came out from the gate, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with Chinese boots on, kicked the guard at the side, very domineering.

This person actually said that he was a beggar and an eyesore?

People under the eaves had to bow their heads.Although she was dissatisfied, she had to be cautious.

"I'm coming from a far away place to visit the King of Xiangnan County." She faked a male voice.

Before the words finished, the boy burst out laughing.

"I thought it was a beggar, but now I know it's a sick lunatic!"

"Come on! Throw him as far away as possible!"

The guards on the left and right responded: "Yes, Fourth Young Master." Then they came over and grabbed him lightly.

Only then did Wei Wei get anxious, "Hey, hey! You bastards who don't know people! Fourth son, what's so great about you! Do you know who this girl is?!"

These four sons are the grandsons of the King of Xiangnan County, the fourth eldest, called Xiang Shaolin, young and frivolous, rich family, known as the fourth son.At this time, he came out, touched his chin and looked at the little beggar who was caught by the guards.

"It turned out to be a female thief!"

"You are the thief! Your whole family is!"

The faces of the four young masters were distorted with anger.In Shonan County, only their family has the final say.To be disrespectful, their county palace is a country within a country.

He twisted the joints of his wrist, there was a creaking sound, and the corner of his mouth was ruthless, thinking about punching this dirty girl, trying his newly practiced fist.

A servant came from behind, "My lord, how can you help this girl? Just let the little ones come."

With a "snap", the boy flicked his mouth lightly, "I see you are still stubborn!"

Xiang Shaolin seemed to see something, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pat the hair on his forehead, "Oh, these eyes are really nice. Do you want to dig them out and use them as beads?"

With a vicious tone, his body shook slightly, but was caught by his servants.

He took the handkerchief and wiped the ashes on her cheeks again, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"It turns out that she is a beauty with skin like jade, no wonder she has a little temper."

"My son thinks that you are a beauty, so I don't care about you."

"Tell me. What are you doing here?" He pinched her cheeks, cynically, "Could it be that you want to warm my son's bed?"

"Bah!" He spat softly, "I'm here to find the King of Xiangnan County, he is my grandfather!"

Xiang Shaolin deliberately reached out to pick his ears, and his tone became more and more evil.

"Grandpa? Didn't I hear it wrong?"

He couldn't help but sneered, but there was a murderous look in his pupils, "Don't be ashamed! You can call him the King of Xiangnan County? My grandfather doesn't have a daughter. Where did he get his granddaughter?"

He leaned forward, his voice not loud: "Little girl thief, if you cheat money and food, I may feel sorry for you after seeing your appearance. But, nonsense, I want to cut my tongue—"

The corners of his lips were curled coldly, and his tone was calm, but terrifying.

Qingqing somehow saw that although this person was young, he was afraid that his methods were very vicious, so he said: "It's okay that the fourth son doesn't know me, but the county prince and the eldest son will naturally know each other when they see each other."

Now, Xiang Shaolin pondered a bit, "Okay. I don't believe that you, a girl, can find flowers. Someone, bring her in."

The reason why Qingqing dares to let her grandfather and uncle know her is because she remembers that others said that she looks like her mother.

Although the grandfather has never met himself, he must have a very clear impression of his mother.

He was brought in lightly, but it was an inner courtyard.He didn't go to the front hall of the palace, so how could he meet the county king.

"I want to see the county prince!"

He bent slightly and was about to run, but was grabbed by Xiang Shaolin, "Want to run now?"

"You liar!"

She panicked, remembering bad experiences that made her worry about him.

Passing through the round door, some girls came out from a wing room inside, "I've seen the Fourth Young Master!"

He couldn't help but dragged her in, and told the girls on both sides, "I've given this girl a bath and a change of clothes!"

Wei Wei felt more and more uncomfortable, struggling and refusing, "Let me go!"

"I want to see my grandfather! I'm his granddaughter!"

His eyes were piercing, and he pinched her neck, "You think it's so good to see my grandfather and father?! Don't say you are such a dirty girl with unknown origin, even this young master can't see you at any time!"

It turns out that although Xiangnan County is a small county, it is the only county in Western Chu that has a fief. Therefore, Xiangnan County has an independent salt and iron economy and army. It only needs to pay money and food to the court every year, and send troops in case of war.Therefore, the king of Xiangnan County has always been in charge of various affairs, and the king's mansion is also divided into east and west mansions. The east mansion is the mansion where the king of the county does his daily work and discusses major affairs in the county, and the west mansion is the inner mansion.

Qingqing is now in the West Mansion, so it is impossible for her to see the old county king now.

"Now, you have to change out of your dirty clothes, or you'll get the hell out of the county palace!"

Only then did the confusion come over, so I had to answer honestly.

Seeing that the fourth young master had already left, she just remembered something, scratched her head and said anxiously: "Thank you, fourth young master!"

Xiang Shaolin's footsteps, which had already left, stopped at this moment. It was just a glance, but his heart was in the end.

This girl claimed to be the granddaughter of the grandfather.Over the years, he had also heard that the only daughter of his grandfather, the aunt of the princess, married to the Northern Qi Dynasty, but she was unlucky and died early. Since then, the county palace has also lost contact with that side.

After Xiang Shaolin went back, he told his mother that his grandmother, the concubine of Xiangnan County, passed away the year before last. Although his grandfather had some concubines, the important affairs of the inner palace were left to the concubine's mother.

After lightly washing and grooming, he was called away.

The eldest concubine is luxurious and dignified, and looks about the same age as Concubine Shu, so she can't help but feel a little worried.

"I heard from the fourth son that you claim to be the granddaughter of the county king?"

"Returning to the concubine, the daughter of the people, Ning Qingqing, is the second daughter of Marquis Anding and Princess Yu of Xiangnan County, and the Prince of Xiangnan County is Qingqing's grandfather."

Something flickered between the concubine's brows, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "How do you prove that you are Ning Qingqing?"

"If everyone claims to be the daughter of Marquis Anding and Princess Yu of Southern Hunan, wouldn't this county palace be blackmailed by others?"
