T/N: This is yesterday's update. My bad. I was still away yesterday so I wasn't able to post it ;P
***
Yu Jin could only pretend not to hear Marquis Xuanping, continuing with her own words, "She’s tense, but she’s able to bear it. If it becomes unbearable, she'll faint like she did today."
Gu Jiao hummed, "But it seems she’s fine around my husband and Long Yi."
Yu Jin nodded slightly, "Little Marquis and Long Yi are exceptions."
Marquis Xuanping was displeased.
It was understandable for Xiao Heng, being her son, but why should Long Yi be an exception!
Yu Jin hurriedly explained, "Long Yi couldn't get close to the princess at first either. It's just that Little Marquis likes Long Yi too much, always clinging to him. After spending a lot of time with the princess and Little Marquis, Long Yi gradually became someone the princess also sees as a child."
Meaning, in Qin Fengwen's eyes, he, Xiao Ji, was a proper, masculine man with a heroic demeanor.
Marquis Xuanping raised an eyebrow.
Wait, there was still something off.
Yu Jin looked at Marquis Xuanping and said earnestly, "Lord Marquis, the princess doesn't intentionally dislike you. She just can't handle being around men. Please don't blame her."
Marquis Xuanping furrowed his brow deeply and murmured, "So she really did take the wrong medicine that night..."
"What did you say, Lord Marquis?" Yu Jin didn't catch what he just said.
Marquis Xuanping replied lightly, "Nothing."
So, did he simply serve as a woman’s antidote at that time?
After Gu Jiao finished taking Princess Xinyang's blood pressure, she said, "Aunt Yu Jin said that the princess's condition has improved in the past two years, but today she suddenly fainted. It should be due to some stimulation in the palace. Does the Marquis remember anything?"
Marquis Xuanping certainly remembered.
It was after Empress Xiao mentioned Old Liang w.a.n.g and Liang w.a.n.gfei that Princess Xinyang started acting strange.
……
After leaving Zhuque Street, Marquis Xuanping returned to Marquis Xuanping Estate.
Steward Liu, who didn't go to the battle campaign with him, hadn't seen his Lordship for months. He was so excited that his eyes sparkled, "Lord Marquis! You're finally back!"
"Enough." Marquis Xuanping waved his hand impatiently, sat down, and asked, "Do you know Old Liang w.a.n.g?"
Steward Liu asked, "Uh, yes, the ninth granduncle of His Majesty and Princess Xinyang, why does Lord Marquis suddenly ask about him?"
Marquis Xuanping instructed, "Look into him and Liang w.a.n.gfei."
Steward Liu asked, "May this servant ask why, my Lord?"
Marquis Xuanping gave him a sharp look, and Steward Liu shrank his neck and said, "This servant can't. Understood."
"No need to investigate everything." That would take too much time. Gathering information was as critical as going into battle. Marquis Xuanping thought for a moment and said, "Just investigate matters related to Princess Xinyang."
Steward Liu wore an expression of extreme speechlessness, "Lord Marquis, you took such a roundabout way. If you wanted to investigate Princess Xinyang, you could have just said so."
Marquis Xuanping replied lightly, "What? Can't this Marquis investigate?"
Steward Liu hastily smiled awkwardly, "Of course, of course, you're the esteemed Marquis, who can't you investigate? But, my Lord doesn't need to investigate. If you want to know something, just ask this servant. This servant came from Old Liang w.a.n.g’s residence!"
Marquis Xuanping's mouth twitched as he looked at him, "You have that background too?"
Steward Liu cleared his throat and said, "This servant... This servant is not someone significant. I was just a little errand boy at Old Liang w.a.n.g’s residence. Later, Old Liang w.a.n.g moved to his fief and built an estate there, but this servant didn't follow along."
"So, you weren't taken along." Marquis Xuanping exposed him.
Steward Liu chuckled awkwardly.
At that time, he was still young, just a little errand boy, naturally not qualified to go to the fief.
Marquis Xuanping continued, "Tell me about Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei. Were they really fond of Princess Xinyang, or was it fake?"
Without hesitation, Steward Liu said, "It’s real! As real as pure gold! Old Liang w.a.n.g loved to listen to music and had a theater troupe in the residence. I was young at that time, only eight years old, and came in with the theater troupe. Later, when the theater troupe disbanded, I didn't leave and stayed behind as an errand boy. I heard in the residence that Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei were very fond of the Seventh Princess, the late Emperor's seventh daughter."
At that time, Princess Xinyang was not yet of age and had no t.i.tle. She ranked seventh, so the servants called her Seventh Princess.
Steward Liu continued, "Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei often visited the imperial palace to see Princess Xinyang. They had no daughter or granddaughter, so... they treated Princess Xinyang as their most cherished treasure."
Marquis Xuanping said, "I know about that. I heard they even brought Princess Xinyang to stay in their residence."
Steward Liu exclaimed excitedly, "That's right, that's true! It was because of Princess Xinyang that the theater troupe disbanded!"
"What do you mean?" Marquis Xuanping frowned.
Steward Liu recalled the matter and said, "I remember... Princess Xinyang was only about six or seven years old at the time. She came to stay in the residence, and Old Liang w.a.n.gfei specially ordered the theater troupe to arrange several plays that children like to watch. I forgot what was arranged, but I remember taking a blade and playing around on the stage."
"She liked watching plays?" Marquis Xuanping had never seen her watch a play all these years.
Steward Liu shook his head. "Thinking about it now, it seems like the princess didn't really like it back then. She sat quietly between Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei, and they both lovingly held one of her hands. The maids and servants below were all laughing, but she had no expression."
Marquis Xuanping's gaze darkened, "How did the disbanding of the theater troupe relate to her?"
Steward Liu explained, "One night, it was very late, Princess Xinyang suddenly ran to the theater troupe. The troupe leader asked her why she came, but she didn't speak. The leader thought she wanted to watch a play, so he performed several plays for her again. Then the leader said to her, 'Seventh Princess, it's late, can we continue tomorrow?' She..."
These events were long ago, and Steward Liu's memory was fuzzy, but for some reason, today, when he recalled it, Princess Xinyang's expression at that time became vivid in his mind.
"It seemed like she was pleading." Steward Liu said blankly.
However, in the end, she left.
She walked away alone.
The next day, news spread in the residence that Princess Xinyang had broken her leg.
It was said that she fell and broke her leg on the way back from the theater troupe. Old Liang w.a.n.gfei blamed everything on the theater troupe and disbanded it without hesitation.
Marquis Xuanping pondered for a moment and said, "Let me ask you, has anyone bullied her in the residence?"
Without hesitation, Steward Liu said, "Of course not! Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei loved the princess very much, and no one dared to bully her! I remember once, Old Liang w.a.n.g's heir, for some reason, had an argument with the princess and pushed her to the ground. It was on the gra.s.s, so it didn't hurt, but when Old Liang w.a.n.g found out, he directly hung up his own son and beat him severely!"
Marquis Xuanping said thoughtfully, "Qin Fengwen's temperament... isn't very likable, is it? Among so many princesses, she's the most dull, the least like a child. Old Liang w.a.n.g and w.a.n.gfei don't like the lively and cute Ning'an, they don't like the knowledgeable and reasonable Deqing, but they particularly favor her?"
Steward Liu chuckled, "The princess is the most beautiful!"
