Chapter 415

Chapter 415

Old Madam Qin looked at Qin Xin, thinking of the Qin Xin who was not yet five years old ten years ago, and could not figure out how she could do it.

The old marquis has been able to stand up to heaven and earth all his life, stand up for his family and country, and has a clear conscience, so how could she let him die without knowing why!

Qin Jiu watched Qin Xin sing a one-man show on the side.

At first, she did not intervene because she wanted to see Old Madam Qin's attitude, whether she would soften her heart again and now that she confirmed that Old Madam Qin really saw through Qin Xin, she smiles yet not a smile, "Qin Xin, don't call out grandma here, and talk about relatives indiscriminately!"

"Your biological father is in the capital prison, and your biological grandmother is in her grave."

"Your adoptive father and mother are on their way to exile in Minzhou, and they have probably arrived by now."

"Your siblings are now in the Su residence."

"Our Marquis of Zhongyi and Qin Zhun have already separated, so we had nothing to do with you, what are you screaming about!"

Following Qin Jiu's word, Qin Xin's complexion became increasingly ugly as her cherry lips trembled slightly and her face was as white as paper.

It was a pity that Qin Jiu does not know sympathy, nor does she give Qin Xin any face at all. "Although you are His Highness the Second Prince's concubine, our Marquis of Zhongyi is not someone with no backbone, let alone a follower of power so don't mess around with our relationships if you have nothing to do."

She felt ashamed, annoyed and angry, after all, Qin Xin grew up in the marquis house, and had never had anyone speak to her like this before.

She raised her gaze towards Old Madam Qin, hoping that she could scold Qin Jiu and say a few words for her.

However, Old Madam Qin's eyes did not have a single ripple, instead there was a hint of disgust as she faintly echoed. "Jiu'er, what you said is true."

As if struck by lightning, Qin Xin's eyes widened as she looked at Old Madam Qin in disbelief, feeling betrayed.

For so many years, she had been so filial to Old Madam Qin, serving her, but it turns out that Qin Jiu only coaxed her away with just few words, and she was now standing on the opposite side of her.

Qin Xin's heart was as cold as ice, the love she cultivated as grandparent and grandchild for more than ten years of dedication was in the end, could not be compared to the so-called blood affinity.

At this moment, looking back at the past scenes she remembered how Old Madam Qin had affectionately called her sweetheart and baby, but this time, she only felt mockery.

"Grandmother, let's go." Qin Jiu assisted Old Madam Qin in towards the temple.

Qin Xin who was kneeling on the ground, stared blankly at the back of the two leaving as her eyes turned darker and darker.

"Miss," Shu Xiang called Qin Xin tentatively and helped her up from the ground, "Shall we go back?"

"...... "Qin Xin didn't say anything, and was still looking at the temple in front of her, at this time, Qin Jiu and Old Madam Qin had already entered the hall.

She can't go back yet; all she could rely on was the Marquis of Zhongyi.

Qin Zening was cold-hearted, and only Old Madam Qin was soft-hearted. Qin Jiu may have coax her now, but she could also coaxes Old Madam Qin back again.

"Shu Xiang, you keep watch here, I'll go sit in the pavilion over there for a while."

Qin Xin planned to wait for Old Madam Qin to come out, so Shu Xiang hurriedly obeyed. She knew that her Miss life in the Second Prince's Residence was not easy, so even her, the personal maidservant was not any different.

Old Madam Qin, was their only hope now, after all, if a woman does not have the support of her natal family, she would have no confidence facing her husband's family.

Qin Xin walked towards the octagonal pavilion in the maple forest, feeling restless. Suddenly, a figure emerged from behind the rockery on the left side of the pavilion, almost colliding with her.

She subconsciously tried to avoid it, but instead, her feet stumbled and her whole body lurched to one side.

"Watch out!"

The other party reached out to support Qin Xin with his left arm, while Qin Xin's right hand grabbed the nearby rockery stone to stabilize her body.

Qin Xin instinctively looked at the other party, who was a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old young man in a brocade robe. He dressed in a straight and elegant style of lake blue auspicious clouds as its design, with a white jade ribbon embedded in his waist. He was tall and noble, with a gentle smile on his lips that was as warm as the sun.

The young man in blue was also looking at Qin Xin, feeling as if she was like a lotus rising from clear water as her slightly red eyes looked pitifully at him, although she wore a married woman's hairstyle, there was a hint of pure charm, bright and moving.

What a rare beauty!

The blue-clothed male secretly admired, and inevitably, took a few more extra glances, even forgetting to loosen the hand holding Qin Xin's left arm.

Qin Xin locked eyes with him and naturally saw the amazement in the other person's eyes, his gaze burning, the way a man would look at a woman.
