  Chapter 97 Match

  Many eyes fell on Xin You, but Xin You only had the girl in her eyes.

   It wasn't what the girl said, but a picture appeared before her eyes unexpectedly.

   A man jumped sideways in embarrassment, and the beast chasing him had no time to turn, and rushed straight forward. In front of the beast was the petrified girl.

   Almost instantly, the girl was knocked into the air by the beast, and then fell heavily to the ground.

  Xin You only had time to see the long knife slashing at the beast before the screen disappeared.

   In front of me is Yuxue's lovely girl, casting curious eyes on her.

  Princess Zhaoyang didn't stop on her feet, and she couldn't help casting her gaze on Xin You's face.

  No one else, this girl is indeed very similar to her, just from the appearance, she looks more like her daughter than Fuer.

  Even with the identity of Princess Zhaoyang, seeing a person who resembles herself will inevitably give birth to a bit of novelty. After novelty, comes doubt.

   It looks like a lady in her clothes, why has she never seen her before?

   Seeing Princess Zhaoyang approaching, Xin You and Duan Yunling bowed and stepped aside to get out of the way.

  Princess Zhaoyang stopped and asked Xin You, "Which family are you from?"

  Xin You lowered her head slightly: "Minnv is the niece of Duan Shaoqing from Taipusi."

  As soon as they heard that it was Duan Shaoqing's niece, many people who hugged Princess Zhaoyang realized it.

   Hey, isn't this the legendary cousin girl who opened a bookstore and recently became a big hit.

  Those eyes were glued to Xin You's face, because there was a girl who spoke first, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that she resembled Princess Zhaoyang.

  Many people secretly exchanged glances.

  This cousin girl looks like the eldest princess, but I don't know if it's trouble or luck.

   "From Shaoqing's mansion?" Princess Zhaoyang didn't find it strange when she heard it.

  She has not attended many banquets in the past year, and has almost no intersection with the circle of the Shaoqing Mansion.

"May I have your name?"

   "The surname of a civilian girl is Kou, and her maiden name is Qingqing."

   "Qingqing—" Princess Zhaoyang smiled, "The name sounds nice. Let's go play."

  After saying this, Princess Zhaoyang walked towards the continuous curtain ahead.

  When the group of people walked away, Duan Yunling breathed a sigh of relief: "My God, Cousin Qing, the eldest princess actually talked to you!"

   "Hasn't Ling cousin seen the eldest princess before?"

"In a mansion like ours, there is no chance to get in touch with the eldest princess. Even in autumn last year, when my grandmother took us to pay her respects to the eldest princess, she followed behind many people, and my grandmother couldn't talk to the eldest princess alone. "

  Duan Yunling looked at Xin You carefully, as if meeting her for the first time: "If my cousin went to pay her respects with her last year, she might have been recognized by others as a resemblance to the eldest princess."

   "A little bit of resemblance doesn't change anything. There are many similar people in the world." Xin You said lightly, not in a very good mood.

  Resemblance to the eldest princess means that she is similar to the father who has never met.

   It's frustrating to think about it.

   As for whether it will attract suspicion because of her resemblance to the princess, she is not worried. Who would think of blood relationship just because the cousin girl in Shaoqing's mansion resembles the eldest princess? Kou Qingqing has always looked like this.

  Princess Zhaoyang sat down in the tent, and asked others: "Miss Kou lives in uncle's house, is there any reason?"

   Kou Qingqing went to Beijing for four years and began to observe her filial piety for three years. It was not until last year that she went out two or three times except for her filial piety, so few people had seen her. The noble ladies who can communicate with the eldest princess of Zhaoyang are even less likely to interact with Shaoqing's mansion.

  However, although the people present had never met Kou Qingqing, they were very familiar with the deeds of this cousin girl.

   Soon Princess Zhaoyang got to know her pretty well, and when she thought of the generous girl just now, she felt a little more pity.

  People came to pay their respects one after another. These people came in groups, and left after saying hello to Princess Zhaoyang from a distance, so as not to disturb the princess's purity.

  When one of the people came, someone reminded Princess Zhaoyang in the ear: "The one in the brown beige is the old lady of the Shaoqing Mansion."

  Princess Zhaoyang summoned the old lady to come forward, and said with a smile: "I just met Ling's granddaughter, she is really a beautiful child."

  The old lady was completely at a loss, and she didn't dare to neglect her face: "That girl is clumsy and vulgar, I dare not be praised by your highness."

   "I'm looking for a match." Princess Zhaoyang didn't say much, and let the old lady leave.

  If it wasn't for hearing that the girl was an orphan, the eldest princess would not have summoned the old lady of the Shaoqing Mansion to speak. And those present also understood that with the words of the eldest princess, Shaoqing's mansion would definitely be more considerate to that cousin girl.

  The old lady left in doubt, and immediately sent her maid to look for Xinyou.

   "Grandmother is looking for me."

   "Qingqing, you just met the eldest princess?"

  Xin You nodded.

   "What did you say in front of the eldest princess?" The old lady mentioned that the eldest princess treated her differently.

   "I asked which family I belonged to. As for getting the eldest princess to notice, it may be because His Highness loves girls and talks like a child, and suddenly said that I look a bit like His Highness."

  The old lady was really taken aback by these words, she couldn't help but carefully looked at her granddaughter, and then tried to recall the appearance of the eldest princess, she was indeed somewhat similar.

  The old lady suddenly felt complicated, and murmured: "I really didn't find out..."

   Mrs. Gu Changbo also said something similar to the old lady.

   Mrs. Gu Changbo knew that she was not liked by Princess Zhaoyang, so she just went to greet her and then ran away, but this kind of news always spread quickly, and it didn't take long to hear it from other people.

   "I met Ms. Kou today, and I said why does she feel faintly familiar." Mrs. Gu Changbo said with a smile.

   "That's not true." Others also echoed.

  Actually, if the daughter of the eldest princess hadn't pointed it out, these noble ladies who don't take a little girl of ordinary background into their eyes would never think of the eldest princess.

   Mrs. Gu Changbo thought of how Princess Zhaoyang had sneered at the concubines including Concubine Shu several times because of Empress Xin's departure, and she was even less fond of the cousin girl of Shaoqing's mansion.

   It is absolutely impossible to let my son get in touch with this Kou girl.

  Where did Ze'er go?

   Mrs. Gu Changbo looked around.

  Xin You, who became the center of today's topic, dragged Duan Yunling, looking for the scene of the incident in the picture.

  Through recollection, she recognized the beast in the picture, it was a wild boar. The person who was chased by the boar also recognized that it was Dai Ze, the eldest son of Guchangbo.

   That is to say, Dai Ze somehow provoked the wild boar to chase him, but he avoided it, but caused the little girl named "Fu'er" to be knocked into the air by the wild boar, and his life and death were unknown.

  If it was an ordinary person, Xin You could still remind her under the guise of physiognomy, but this is the eldest princess's daughter, and I'm afraid she would be kidnapped if she opened her mouth.

  After much deliberation, it is safest to wait near the accident site in advance, and save the girl in time when the accident happens.

  Xin You looked at a bush of wild chrysanthemums and stopped.
