Mrs. Xuan hurriedly entered the courtyard of the old Lady Nalan, "Mother!"
The old Lady Nalan nodded slightly, pointing to a seat below, "Sit!"
Mrs. Xuan’s heart was uneasy.
Looking at the expression of the old Lady Nalan, she seemed not very happy.
Did she do something wrong?
"Do you know why I called you over?" the old Lady Nalan asked in a deep voice.
Mrs. Xuan shook her head in confusion, "Mother, if there’s anything you need, just tell me!"
"Good, since you said that, I won’t beat around the bush. Let me ask you, why did you send Jinlian away today?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Xuan.
After thinking it over, she explained, "Mother, about today, I really don’t know why? First, Changlin sent someone over, asking me to invite Sister Lian to my courtyard for a short visit. I was afraid others would gossip, so I used the excuse of delivering cloth. But why exactly? I am not sure, mother why don’t you call Changlin over to ask?"
"Wasn’t it for Huanhuan?" the old Lady Nalan asked.
She wondered how much of Mrs. Xuan’s words were credible?
"What does this have to do with Huanhuan? Huanhuan knows nothing!" Mrs. Xuan said, a bit annoyed.
Has someone come to complain?
The old Lady Nalan said nothing and instructed the maid beside her, "Go invite the eldest young master to come by for a conversation!"
Soon, Nalan Changlin was invited over.
The old Lady straightforwardly asked, "Tell me, why did you send away your sixth sister today?"
Nalan Changlin’s expression slightly changed, looking at his mother sitting to the side, knowing he couldn’t hide it, he told the truth.
Without the slightest embellishment.
After listening, old Lady Nalan quickly asked, "You’re telling me, it was the Crown Prince’s idea?"
"Yes, Grandmother, I dare not deceive you!"
The old Lady Nalan fell silent.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "Then why does the Crown Prince not want Duke Rui to see Sister Lian?"
"Mother, Sister Lian is so beautiful, if Duke Rui were to see her and take a fancy to her, wanting to marry her back to Tianchu Country, what would we do? Based on my guess, the Crown Prince must have already seen our Sister Lian and probably has some interest in her!" said Mrs. Xuan.
Otherwise, why would he be in such a hurry to send her away?
She absolutely didn’t believe that the Crown Prince had no interest.
Nalan Changlin didn’t believe it either.
Even the old Lady Nalan didn’t believe it.
"Are you suggesting that the Crown Prince has feelings for our Sister Lian..."
Nalan Changlin also nodded.
The old Lady Nalan felt this was a serious matter, "Go call the third son over, and have the old Marquess come too, how did I get so confused about this!"
The old Lady Nalan was quite clear-headed, there was no sign of confusion.
Moreover, she always felt that Nalan Jinlian did not quite resemble a daughter of the Nalan family, she was too beautiful.
Her demeanor and actions did not quite match a girl from the Great Zhou Kingdom either.
Even having grown up in a border town, she shouldn’t be .
Too calm, too uncompetitive.
Mrs. Xuan wanted to stay and listen to find out what was happening, but she didn’t quite dare, so she had to leave first.
However, Nalan Changlin stayed.
When the old Marquess and Nalan Bo came over, the old Lady Nalan also asked Nalan Changlin to leave first.
"Yes, Grandmother!" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Though Nalan Changlin was reluctant, he had no choice but to leave.
Yet he felt a faint dissatisfaction in his heart.
Originally, Nalan Huanhuan was the most cherished in this family, but ever since Nalan Jinlian returned, everything changed.
The maids and elderly women all stepped out, leaving only the old Lady Nalan, Nalan Bo, and the old Marquess.
"Bobo, tell us, what exactly is going on with Sister Lian?"
