Chapter 429 Pressing on at Every Step in an Aggressive Way

As regards the matter that Qin Yuru indicated that she was kin to Duke Xing\'s Mansion, it seemed that Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion quite believed in Qin Yuru and tried to get closer to her. Moreover, Qin Yuru wore a dress on which there was a pattern of bluegrass, and besides, it was quite easy for one to make a seal of bluegrass. Thus, considering all these, Qin Wanru was sure that Qin Yuru must have a seal of bluegrass now.

A counterfeit!

Since Qin Yuru and Duke Xing\'s Mansion both were acting out in a way that Duke Xing\'s Mansion wanted to accept Qin Yuru as a nominal miss, Rui\'an Great Elder Princess was unable to interfere. In that case, Qin Wanru had to search out the evidence from Qin Yuru. She must find out the seal of bluegrass which had belonged to her biological mother, Infanta Qinghua. If Qin Yuru was found out that she had the seal, it could say that Qin Yuru had something to do with Infanta Qinghua.

Certainly, Duke Xing\'s Mansion was reluctant to let Qin Yuru show this seal, but what about Qin Yuru herself? She must be eager to show the seal of bluegrass if this could help her have a relationship with Rui\'an Great Elder Princess! She was even willing to instigate the whole thing!

Qin Yuru would not be satisfied only with the title of a nominal granddaughter of Duke Xing\'s Mansion. Qin Wanru had watched clearly what Qin Yuru did just now. When she left, she looked totally willing to be checked and even walked faster than she used to. These signs all confirmed Qin Wanru\'s suspicion!

Once something was done wrong, even if the surface acting seemed consummate, it would never be infallible. Thus, Qin Wanru must take this chance to unmask what Qin Yuru really was...

It didn\'t take much time. Presently Qin Yuru returned, following the old maids.

"Great Elder Princess, she does have the infanta\'s seal," one of the old maids answered when handing over the seal in her hand to Rui\'an Great Elder Princess in excitement.

Old Madam Qin looked at Qin Wanru who shook her head slightly while biting her delicately pink lips.

Old Madam Qin sighed deeply. Even though others didn\'t know the truth, she knew. The more she saw today, the more upset she was. It was not only because of her granddaughter, but also because of her son.

Had not Qin Wanru held her, she would have burst into anger just now! Her suspicions before now all turned to be confirmed. Madam Di and Qin Yuru had always been scheming and had intended to let Qin Yuru take Qin Wanru\'s identity, the biological daughter of the former Heir of Duke Xing and the biological granddaughter of Rui\'an Great Elder Princess!

She closed her eyes and suppressed her bitterness in her heart. She was not surprised Madam Di and Qin Yuru would do these things. They had always been greedy and selfish, but what about Qin Huaiyong? He was clear that the middle-aged couple was not Zhuozhuo\'s biological parents, but he didn\'t tell the truth!

Even though others didn\'t know what happened that year, he knew that!

He knew who trusted him with Zhuozhuo; he knew every detail of that matter; he knew better than her! However, he just kept silence and allowed the couple to shout and demean Zhuozhuo! He even didn\'t explain how Zhuozhuo injured her knee!

Qin Wanru did have a knee injury, a serious injury. When Qin Wanru just began her life in Qin\'s Mansion, Qin Yuru pushed her down deliberately from her back as she hated Qin Wanru who snatched everyone\'s favor from her when she came back. The saying that Qin Wanru got hurt because she fell down during the wartime was false!

Old Madam Qin\'s mixed emotions seemed to be delivered to Qin Wanru. "Grandma?" Qin Wanru said softly in a low voice, gazing concernedly at Old Madam Qin.

Old Madam Qin shook her head without saying anything but smiled bitterly. She patted on Qin Wanru\'s arm which was holding her and then turned to look at Qin Yuru.

Irrepressible exaltation and excitement appeared on Qin Yuru\'s face. "It is Infanta Qinghua\'s seal! There is a great difference between the title of the nominal granddaughter of Duke Xing\'s Mansion and that of the biological granddaughter of Rui\'an Great Elder Princess!"

When seeing that seal, Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion looked bad, while Rui\'an Great Elder Princess looked a bit excited. Taking the seal and checking carefully, she stared up at Qin Yuru and asked, "You, you have the seal? Where do you get this?"

"Your Highness, it is my seal. I don\'t know its origin, but I have had it since I was little!" answered Qin Yuru docilely.

"Since she was little, she has had it?" Qin Wanru sneered inwardly. The seal in Rui\'an Great Elder Princess\' hand now looked as the same as the one which was hung around her neck. Obviously, Madam Di had made this plan very early and she did have the seal before. When Qin Wanru asked Chu Liuchen to steal the seal from her, Madam Di then remade another seal.

When they were in Jiangzhou, Madam Di had tried hard to let Qu Le become Qin Yuru\'s servant girl. Now with this seal, it was clear that Madam Di had planned these things very early. However, she didn\'t know her real identity at that time and that was why she didn\'t keep it in mind.

Later, since Madam Di knew Qin Wanru\'s real identity, she then intended to let Qin Yuru impersonate the biological granddaughter of Rui\'an Great Elder Princess.

"Are you, are you my daughter\'s biological daughter?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess asked, clenching her fist tightly with a serious look.

Lowering her head and rubbing her handkerchief, Qin Yuru pretended to be at a loss. "I am not sure about this. The only thing I know is that I have this seal when I was very young," she answered while she was extremely excited inwardly. Since she could not let this excitement appear in her face, she had to suppress this emotion by rubbing her handkerchief.

She was going to be the biological granddaughter of Rui\'an Great Elder Princess!

"Have you shown this to Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess looked soft.

The moment she finished, Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion suddenly became nervous. She hurriedly said, "Great Elder Princess..."

"Old Madam, I am asking her about my Qinghua. Please don\'t interject our conversation." Rui\'an Great Elder Princess interrupted her unkindly. Looking a bit indifferent, she looked away from Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion, over Madam of Duke Xing. "If I know someone is trying to prevent me from finding my granddaughter, the person will be in trouble!"

Seeing Rui\'an Great Elder Princess\' action, Qin Yuru felt relieved. If Great Elder Princess acknowledged her as her granddaughter, nothing would be a problem. Besides, even though she did something improperly, Great Elder Princess must help her deal with these things!

Thinking in this way, she got much more excited. If she became Great Elder Princess\' biological granddaughter and the eldest Miss of Duke Xing\'s Mansion, nobody would dare to look down upon her, not to mention Qi Rongzhi, who would be trampled by her underfoot! Moreover, even if Qin Wanru knew her real identity and intended to show her kinship to Rui\'an Great Elder Princess, it would be late!

When she was recognized by Rui\'an Great Elder Princess as her granddaughter, she would get rid of Qin Wanru!

"Great Elder Princess, Old Madam has seen this seal before. She asked me once and showed her favor towards me after I took out the seal and showed it to her!" Qin Yuru replied.

Her reply was meaningful. On the one hand, she indicated that Old Madam had known who she was and had verified this matter. On the other hand, it was because Old Madam knew her real identity that she held this acceptance ceremony today.

The current acceptance ceremony was just a formality.

"Well, since Old Madam has watched this seal and even verified it, it seems that she is sure that this miss is Qinghua\'s biological daughter, right?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess had been waiting for this answer! Now since Qin Yuru gave this answer, Rui\'an Great Elder Princess could finally target Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion directly. Holding the seal, she turned to Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion and asked.

Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion was speechless. "Great Elder Princess, well..." Madam of Duke Xing chuckled, coming to her rescue.

"That\'s none of your business. I want to talk to your mother-in-law." Rui\'an Great Elder Princess interrupted Madam of Duke Xing, staring at Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion, and said, "Old Madam, it is because you have watched this seal while you know the seal once belonged to my daughter that you plan to accept First Miss Qin as your granddaughter. Am I right?"

Qin Yuru\'s words shattered all chances for Old Madam to deny Great Elder Princess\' question. She could only complain inwardly that Qin Yuru was only a callow youth and she should not have told this to Rui\'an Great Elder Princess.

Now she had to respond. Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion cleared her throat and then said, "I was thinking she might be my son and Infanta Qinghua\'s daughter but I was not sure. And that\'s why I want to accept her as my nominal granddaughter, but not the biological one as I think I should try it!"

She now felt fortunate that she had listened to Madam of Duke Xing and didn\'t recognize Qin Yuru as her biological daughter at once. Otherwise, she could not explain this to Rui\'an Great Elder Princess.

"Try? Old Madam, Qinghua was the Infanta anointed by the Emperor. Nobody can confer the title of Infanta Qinghua\'s daughter on anyone casually!" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess banged the table heavily as she said, "Don\'t you know the consequence of confusing the royal blood?

"Great Elder Princess, I just told you that I intend to accept her as a nominal granddaughter but not as Infanta Qinghua\'s daughter! We all don\'t know what happened that year!" Old Madam replied unpleasantly, and she looked sulky.

"Nominal? A nominal Infanta Qinghua\'s daughter? You have seen that seal, but you didn\'t ask, but immediately decided to let her be your nominal granddaughter. Old Madam, do people of Duke Xing\'s Mansion always deal with things in such a casual way?" As a trace of coldness appeared in her eyes, Rui\'an Great Elder Princess shot a glance at Old Madam.

It was hasty for her to immediately make a decision to accept Qin Yuru as her nominal granddaughter without checking after seeing Infanta Qinghua\'s seal. Old Madam was speechless again. Thinking for a while, she had to make excuses. "You know we cannot ascertain the truth so quickly. Thus, I want to accept her as my nominal granddaughter first and then continue to check the facts!"

"Then do you do that?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess attacked.

"I am checking!" Old Madam answered.

"What do you know then? Who do you send to do this job? How long has the person been to Jiangzhou?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess was pressing hard. If one wanted to check Qin Yuru\'s background carefully, the person had to go to Jiangzhou and check her origin!

"After the ceremony, I will send people to do this!" Old Madam could not say that she had never considered these matters.

"If it turns out that she is not Qinghua\'s daughter, then what will you do? Still letting her be recorded under my daughter\'s name?" Rui\'an Great Elder Princess kept asking.

It was harder to respond. Old Madam felt lucky that she had not accepted Qin Yuru formally. At the very beginning, she attempted to let Madam of Duke Xing accept Qin Yuru. However, since Duke Xing said that if they thought Qin Yuru was the former Heir of Duke Xing\'s daughter, then they would better record her under the name of the former Heir of Duke Xing. And that was why Old Madam would decide to accept Qin Yuru as her nominal granddaughter.

Old Madam of Duke Xing\'s Mansion had the right to let Qin Yuru be recorded under her dead eldest son\'s name by accepting her as her nominal granddaughter.

She had always been proud of this idea. However, when being interrogated by Rui\'an Great Elder Princess, she finally found out that it was a bad idea. What she did before had drawn Rui\'an Great Elder Princess\' attention!

"If not, then she could not be Infanta Qinghua\'s daughter. However, I like this First Miss Qin. I have the right to accept her as my nominal granddaughter, isn\'t that right? By the way, I am my eldest son\'s mother and I have the right to choose who can be recorded under his name!" Old Madam sneered and looked firm as she felt embarrassed when being pressed hard by Rui\'an Great Elder Princess in front of everyone.

Old Madam had always been the head of Duke Xing\'s Mansion and even the Shao Family. She had never expected that she would be embarrassed by Rui\'an Great Elder Princess.

"You like First Miss Qin so you confer the title on her? Then I suppose I can also make Second Miss Qin Qinghua\'s daughter because I like her, right?"
