In the years of famine, I was well versed in history and pampered the Northern Army

Chapter 111 The Real Zhang Yang

Chu Chengying was completely speechless now. He had never thought that his luck was so bad that he would run into the Qi family no matter where he went. It’s not that he hated these people. After all, they didn’t cause any substantial harm to him. It’s just that this family had too many problems and always liked to stir up trouble here.

"Qingyin greets Aunt Qi."

He had originally thought that he could socialize here in a friendly manner, but now that he was here, he could already imagine how many arguments he would have to go through.

"Oh, don't you usually stay at the Xu family? I didn't expect you to attend such a banquet today, but the Imperial Master didn't come to accompany you."

As she said this, the wife of the Duke of Qi was placing her hands on the mahogany table, with the diamonds on her fingers faintly visible.

It was evening now, but it was summer and the sun was still bright. The diamond was sparkling in his hand, and others could not observe it even if they did not want to.

Now this purpose is so easy to guess at once that Chu Qingyin couldn't help but twitch her lips.

"My mother said it's not good for me to stay stuck at home all the time, so she asked me to go out and walk around more. Besides, there are so many elders in our capital who I don't know yet. I came here today to get to know everyone."

This was said appropriately, and the wife of the Duke of Qi had nothing to refute.

Anyway, today she just wanted to show everyone the diamond in her hand. She had been hating Xu Qingyin for a while, but she didn't expect that she would come right into her trap.

The wife of Duke Qi just glanced at Xu Qingyin lightly, and when she saw that he didn't have anything related to diamonds on him, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, they are also the Duke's Mansion. Although the emperor has rewarded the Duke's Mansion with diamonds, he is just a junior in the family and definitely does not have any.

This little girl is from the countryside and definitely doesn't understand anything. Today, I must humiliate her!

"Qingyin, your mother is the Imperial Preceptor. I'm sure you've heard about the legend of diamonds recently. It's the hottest topic of discussion in the capital right now."

"Of course I've heard of it. It seems to be a miracle bestowed by the witch, bringing good fortune to our Yunjin Nation."

Seeing Xu Qingyin saying what he said, he felt a little happier:

"This diamond is truly beautiful, but your mother is a national advisor. She must have spent a lot of time with the emperor and the miko. Did he receive any diamonds specially gifted to him by the miko?"

Nonsense, I am a witch. My mother wants diamonds, so I will give her as many as she wants...

But she could tell that this was definitely a trap for him. If he said that the witch had specially rewarded his mother with diamonds, then such things should have belonged to the country. If his mother took them all by herself, it would mean that his mother had embezzled these diamonds.

Judging from how precious His Majesty treats this thing now, it is definitely a capital crime.

Xu Qingyin was speechless in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face at all, still looking very envious:

"This kind of thing was specially gifted to our country by the witch. How could my mother obtain it alone? He is just a person who connects with the witch. The one who can truly communicate with the witch is the current emperor."

This is a humble statement, and everyone feels comfortable hearing it.

"That being said, many dukedoms have many diamonds these days, so I'm sure your family has some as a reward. But why didn't I see you bring any out today? You're still young, as beautiful as a flower, so naturally you should wear such beautiful jewelry more often."

Although this sounded like advice from an elder, it was actually pointing out that Xu Qingying's mother did not value her daughter.

"Don't bother me, Aunt. My mother's diamonds are definitely left at home."

Qingyin said this in a tactful way, wanting to let him know that he did not bring the diamonds from home, which would allow him to continue to dig a trap for himself. But in fact, he had no less than three diamonds on him today, and each of them was three carats.

This kind of thing is easy for her to do, but she definitely needs a title to earn it, and that would naturally be the Queen Mother.

After all, the Queen was so passionate about herself, who could say anything? Who would the Queen give the diamond to?

However, when the wife of Duke Qi heard Xu Qingyin say that he didn't have any diamonds on him, she was completely happy. After all, she was the only one in the whole place who had diamonds.

"Oh, then your mother shouldn't keep this diamond for herself. I'm just trying it out today. If I get home, I'll definitely give it to Fei Xu.

"After all, she's young, and as a girl, she definitely needs a lot of jewelry. I didn't expect your mother to feel so sorry for you that she wouldn't leave the diamond to you."

Every word she said was saying that Xu Qingyin's mother didn't love her. Because this lady from the starting space was so good at fanning the flames, the lady from the Yongyi Earl's Mansion next to her was a little scared:

"Oh, it's okay, Qingyin. This thing is really valuable. Even the Duke's Mansion only has one. Someone of my status doesn't even have one. You must not hold a grudge against your mother because of this."

He was the one who was really sweating profusely. He originally thought that he was just holding a casual banquet and enjoying the flowers with his relatives and friends, but he didn't expect to invite two such huge Buddhas. The wife of Eunuch Qi was really too much. She kept saying these words to a junior, and he didn't know what her intention was.

Although his daughter was reprimanded by the Queen some time ago, it was only because of his own outrageous remarks. But now he took out all his anger on Xu Qingyin. No one present did not feel extremely disgusted.

Seeing someone helping her out, Xu Qingyin felt that she had played the pig and eaten the tiger long enough, so she said with a smile:

"Why should I bear a grudge against my mother? My mother only has one diamond, why should I ask him for it?"

"That's right."

Before the lady of the official family could open her mouth to continue to refute, she heard Xu Qingyin continue:

"My mother only has one diamond, but I have three, all given by the Queen. If I were to take away my mother's only one, I would be completely heartless."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, revealing a huge diamond on her hand, which was even pink.

And on the bracelet.
