Having said that, the prince did not allow the eldest princess to refute, and quickly ordered an entourage to go to the banquet to pick up the fourth prince.
Qiao Zhongguo was secretly happy. If today's matter comes before the Holy Lord, the princess must be stripped of her skin!
Today's incident happened in Qiao's Mansion, and he had to go with him no matter what, just because the baby bump in his hand had to be settled first.
The eldest man is the groom's official today, so I won't bother him and go find the second eldest brother!
Just as Qiao Zhongguo thought of this, a group of people suddenly rushed here, shouting: "Master, it's not good!"
Qiao Zhongguo was so frightened that even Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes widened.
[Oh my god, are there any omissions? 】
The crowd came closer, led by Grandma Liu.
Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly became anxious.
【What's wrong? Did something happen to your mother again? Or Cousin An Ning? 】
Qiao Zhongguo stepped forward to greet him. Before he could speak, Nanny Liu had already said quickly:
"Master, madam caught a thief in the back garden! Quick! Come forward!"
Qiao Jiaojiao took a closer look and saw that the thief had a small face and a delicate face. She was actually a little girl.
Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly realized.
[This is the girl who poured cousin An Ning’s tea on the table! 】
Aunt Liu stared at the girl fiercely and said coldly:
"Oh my God, there is such a black-hearted girl in this world. Not only did she deliberately spill drinks at the banquet, but she also spread filthy drugs with the intention of murdering the ladies and ladies at the banquet!"
"Master, my wife asked my slave to bring the thief to you. You must find out who is so cruel and wants to ruin the eldest young master's wedding!"
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
[My mother is so smart! The situation was so urgent just now, but my mother didn't mess up her position and called the secret guards to take this man down in time! 】
[Mother must have known that dad would not let it go, and the prince was at the table, so she sent him over with great fanfare! 】
[You know, this little girl was ordered to do things with money, so she is a perfect witness! 】
"What! It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense!"
Qiao Zhongguo also turned around in an instant. His face was extremely angry, but in his heart he was like "Hey, you are worthy of being a madam!"
He was not so thoughtful in everything he did. I wonder if the boy who poured wine on Tan Hanchi can still be found now.
"correct!"
Qiao Zhongguo seemed to have suddenly come to his senses. He turned to look at the prince and said quickly:
"Your Highness, the same filthy medicine was used again. I'm afraid they are the same thieves who hurt the eldest princess!"
"How about taking him to the palace and interrogating him together?"
The prince's eyes were clear, and he ordered the attendants beside him with a solemn expression: "Take it away!"
Cai Lan was standing behind the eldest princess at this time. He had already considered dying, so his expression was calm.
But when she saw this little girl, her expression suddenly changed.
Miss Zuo also failed! ?
She paid a lot of money to hire this little girl to pour alcohol and aphrodisiac on Zuo Anning, ruining Zuo Anning's reputation!
It's over, now I really lost everything!
The only good thing is that when she hired this little girl, her face was covered with a veil. I hope she can't recognize herself, otherwise the princess really won't be able to stand up!
Thinking of this, Cailan quickly lowered his head deeply.
The little girl's mouth was gagged with gauze and she was crying so hard that when she suddenly looked up, she saw a pair of familiar eyebrows.
Her eyes suddenly widened and she whined immediately.
Naturally, Qiao Zhongguo and the prince would not ignore this strangeness. When they saw her staring at Cai Lan, they immediately guessed the reason and couldn't help but look at each other with bright eyes.
When Qiao Zhongguo saw that everything was ready, he handed Qiao Jiaojiao to Aunt Liu, and he asked the prince for permission and went to the banquet.
He first called the two righteous brothers and gave them detailed instructions, then left the table with a smile, pretending as if nothing had happened.
Before leaving, Qiao Zhongguo glanced at Tan Hanchi lightly.
Tan Hanchi was always paying attention here, knowing that it was time to close the net, so he sat for a while and then left the table.
Everyone at the table was full of human beings. Seeing that the prince was gone forever, Qiao Zhongguo came and left, the fourth prince was also picked up by his entourage, and even Tan Hanchi got up and left the table, he knew that something terrible must have happened. thing.
However, the most taboo thing about hanging out in the court is to spy on secrets and catch rumors, so one by one they changed cups and changed cups, just pretending not to know.
On the other side, the eldest princess put on her cloak, and the group was led by Qiao Zhongguo out of the mansion through a side door, then got on the carriage and went straight to the palace.
————
Today Emperor Yong made a rare trip to Yikun Palace to discuss the prince's wedding.
As a crown prince, the prince's wedding must be prudent and grand, and must be meticulous in every aspect.
The queen had already made plans in her mind, and according to the old practice, everything had been settled one by one, and she was waiting for Emperor Yong to see it.
Although Emperor Yong didn't like the queen, he never doubted her ability to rule the Sixth Palace, so he nodded after a cursory glance.
"Everything will be arranged by the Queen."
The queen nodded respectfully, but she felt disdain for Emperor Yong in her heart.
He must not have even read a few lines of words!
But it's okay, the prince's wedding naturally has her as a mother to worry about, and there is no need for Emperor Yong to dictate.
It had been a long time since the two of them had sat alone together like this. After talking about the prince's wedding, there was nothing more to talk about.
The queen thought that Emperor Yong would leave soon, but she didn't expect that he would start talking again.
"Yuan Xian has also reached the age of marriage. As a mother, do you want to look after her husband?"
When the queen heard this, she looked at Emperor Yong in surprise.
He was afraid that he had forgotten that when the two of them broke up, he had said with a bare face that she was not worthy of being the mother of a country. From now on, she was not allowed to interfere in any affairs of the princes and princesses.
Of course, the queen knew in her heart that the reason why Emperor Yong said this was because he was worried that she would harm her newborn son.
Thinking of this, the Queen stabbed her without mercy, "Yuanxian has his biological mother, Concubine Wan, and the Holy Father, a loving father. Why do I need to see each other as a concubine?"
Emperor Yong choked slightly when he heard this, knowing that the queen was trying to block him.
It seems that since the day Xiao Si almost drowned, the Queen has regained some of her former temperament, and is no longer the submissive and respectful look.
"During the Longevity Festival, Nanli National Congress sent a delegation to congratulate me. The third prince headed by him is not yet married, and it sounds like he intends to marry us."
When the queen heard this, her expression changed, revealing a bit of surprise.
"Is Your Majesty willing to let the eldest princess go to Nanli country to get married?"
After saying this, the queen felt that she was worrying too much.
Apart from his love for that woman and the son she gave birth to, His Majesty could probably let go of the other children.
At this moment, the queen was extremely glad that she had never given birth to a princess, otherwise she would have been manipulated by Emperor Yong in the future, which would have been extremely painful!
Emperor Yong never revealed his exact meaning, and he obviously had not made up his mind.
The queen didn't want to talk.
No matter what she says, Concubine Wan and the eldest princess will think that she is adding fuel to the fire behind their backs. It is better not to say anything and let Emperor Yong make the decision.
Both of them were speechless, and the Yikun Palace suddenly became quiet. The queen wanted to speak and chase people away, but Huang Pei suddenly whispered outside the door:
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Qiao are asking for an audience in the imperial study."
