Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 84 Turn in

Qiu Yun respectfully took out the jade pendant from her sleeve and gave it to her young lady.

The Queen was puzzled, and so was Mr. Xie. Their eyes fell on Song Jinyue.

Song Jinyue brought the jade plaque to her aunt and explained with a smile: "Aunt, do you recognize this jade plaque?"

The queen took the jade plaque from Song Jinyue and looked at it. She felt familiar for a moment, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

Mrs. Xie also came up and took a look, only to feel her eyes tightening.

"Stop pretending, what's going on?" The queen returned the things to Song Jinyue and urged her to stop pretending.

Song Jinyue put the jade token on the low black stool aside and glanced at the jade token with disgust in her eyes. When she came back to her senses and looked at her aunt, she changed into a look of ignorance.

She spoke softly and said, "This jade tablet is a relic of the fifth prince's deceased mother."

"Oh, by the way, I felt so familiar. I didn't think of it for a moment, but it was actually a token of love given to you by Lao Wu." The queen smiled kindly.

But Song Jinyue shook her head and explained: "This jade plaque was not given to me by His Highness the Fifth Prince, but I picked it up in the Duke's Mansion. Now I have to trouble my aunt to return this jade plaque to His Highness."

Song Jinyue's words made the queen aware that something was wrong.

Mrs. Xie naturally understood.

Since it was a relic of the fifth prince's deceased mother, it should be treasured very much. How could it be left in the Duke's Mansion?

And if it was given to Yue Yatou, why didn't he tell me in advance? He could also ask someone to help find this lost treasure.

Since there is no notification, it means that this thing is not given to Yue Yatou, but to someone else.

Is that person in the Duke's Mansion?

Is she the eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion?

Thinking of this, the queen no longer had a smile on her face. The niece didn't say anything clearly today, but as soon as their thoughts changed, they naturally guessed it.

I think Yue Yatou must be because he and Lao Wu are engaged, so they don't want to embarrass each other.

Only then did I hope to return the things through her.

"Yue'er, don't worry, I will keep this thing until I call someone to send it back to Lao Wu," the queen said.

Song Jinyue nodded, looking extraordinarily well-behaved and sensible.

Seeing him like this in the eyes of the queen made her feel inexplicably distressed.

I originally thought that Lao Wu was a good one, but now that I'm looking at him, I'm afraid I may have misjudged him. Fortunately, my niece has returned to the capital and doesn't want to marry Lao Wu.

Simply broke off their engagement?

This idea gradually emerged in the queen's mind, but she forgot for a moment that the fifth child was raised by herself.

"Aunt, I'll go back first." Song Jinyue stood up and was about to leave.

The queen did not stop her and asked Xiang Xiu, the head of Zhaohua Palace, to escort her out of the palace in person.

When Song Jinyue left the Zhaohua Palace, the queen's eyes fell on the jade plaque on the black low stool, and she was silent for a long time.

Mrs. Xie couldn't bear it and advised softly: "Mother, you should take care of your own health. You are still carrying a dragon fetus in your belly, so leave this matter to me."

The queen looked at her sister-in-law, let out a long sigh, and finally nodded, but she was a little disappointed, "Lao Wu was raised by me. Now, I am particularly confused. I actually looked away... Sister-in-law

, tell me, what should I do about Yue'er?"

The queen was worried that her niece had broken off her engagement with Lao Wu. Where could there be a suitable son-in-law in the capital?

She was very disappointed that Lao Wu did such a thing.

If Yue'er is not given an explanation, how can she live up to her sister who died young?

"Your Majesty, my heart is separated from my belly. After all, I wasn't born by you. Your Highness is now older, so I guess you have your own plans in mind." Ms. Xie comforted her softly.

But in his heart, he became suspicious of the fifth prince.

The queen's original intention was to get closer to her, and Yue'er's identity was there. Looking at the capital, there was nothing more valuable than Yue'er's identity.

His Highness, the fifth prince, actually chose someone by himself? Although Song Jinxi was the eldest daughter of the Duke's Palace, with a mother of such a background, many aristocratic families in the capital would stay away from her and have no intention of getting married.

The queen sighed again and again, but the annoyance in her heart could not be dissipated.

Xiangxiu sent Miss Song to the gate of the palace, watched Miss Song get on the carriage, and then returned to Zhaohua Palace to resume her life.

On the carriage, Qiu Yun asked, "Miss, why don't you tell the Queen about the matter between the eldest lady and the fifth prince?"

Song Jinyue smiled lightly and tapped the tip of Qiu Yun's nose, "Silly Qiu Yun, if I tell you directly, my aunt will definitely have doubts in her heart, and she may even be suspicious of me, so why not just say that I picked up the thing at the Duke's Mansion?

.”

"But, wouldn't the Queen still be suspicious of the young lady?"

Song Jinyue shook her head, "That's different. Now, my aunt will only doubt the fifth prince. Since she has doubts in her heart, she must seek confirmation. When things get out of hand, if my aunt takes out the things, she will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

.”

What Qiu Yun heard was mist.

Song Jinyue didn't want to explain anymore.

She knew that her aunt would definitely not return the jade plaque to He Yuanjie like this. Since her aunt had doubts in her mind, she would definitely send someone to investigate.

She would never let that couple off so easily. She died so miserably in her previous life, so how could she be so merciful to them again?

Just wait, she will not give up until the two of them are ruined!

When Song Jinyue returned to the Duke's mansion, she happened to encounter the steward who was ordering people to leave the mansion with their luggage.

"Manager Song, what are you doing?" Qiu Yun asked.

When Manager Song saw the second young lady beside Qiu Yun, he hurriedly ordered everyone to stop and bowed respectfully before replying: "I am going to Jingzhao Yamen to deliver some clothes and food to Madam."

"Mother can't come back today?" Song Jinyue blurted out and asked.

Manager Song nodded with an embarrassed look on his face, and then continued to explain: "Master Wang said that the case has a clue, and now I am afraid that my wife will not be able to come back for a while, so the Duke of Guo ordered the old slave to send some clothes and food to my wife."

When this matter was brought up, Manager Song felt ashamed.

The dignified wife of the Duke is now living in the prison of Jingzhao Yamen.

Now the Duke's Mansion has almost become the laughing stock of the entire capital. When Manager Song was walking on the street, he could clearly hear people pointing at him from behind. He really wished he had to go out.

"Manager Song, then go and get busy first."

Manager Song bowed again and then took the others to leave.

Song Jinyue took Qiu Yun straight back to Ming Zhuxuan and entered the house. Qiu Yun hurriedly closed the door, fearing that the cold air from outside would burst into the house.

Song Jinyue took off her coat, and Qiu Yun took a handkerchief wet with hot water to wipe the young lady's cheeks.

Qiu Yun was thinking about Mrs. Li's case, and her face was inevitably a little nervous.

Song Jinyue naturally saw the clues, handed the used handkerchief to Qiu Yun, and said calmly: "You will inevitably arouse suspicion, why don't you go back and rest for a few days?"

Qiu Yun came back to her senses and shook her head repeatedly. There was no way she would be able to serve her without her beside her.
