"Could it be that Auntie Huang wants to..."
Before Gu Qishen finished speaking, he felt something in his mouth, which made him swallow it subconsciously.
"What did you feed me?"
The thing that came out of An Ruowan's hands was probably not a good thing. Gu Qishen's eyes widened unconsciously.
"Nothing, just a pill that makes people tell the truth."
"you!"
Gu Qishen covered his mouth with one hand, he really didn't expect An Ruowan to do such a thing.
"Or is it that the second prince just lied?"
When asked by her, Gu Qishen didn't know what else to say, so he could only swallow his saliva unconsciously, "I don't bother to lie!"
"That's good."
The smile on An Ruowan's lips grew wider, "Then I wonder if the second prince will tell you what happened just now?"
When she finished speaking, Gu Qishen suddenly tensed up, "I have just said it once, why should I say it again? It will definitely be different."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Qishen's eyes widened, completely believing An Ruowan's words.
"That's fine. Then the princess will ask you, why did you come to the Duke Zhenguo's mansion?"
Gu Qishen subconsciously wanted to cover his mouth, but his body's natural reaction betrayed him.
"I am here for Miss Song."
Hearing this, An Ruowan raised the corners of her lips and said, "Very good."
"You can't be like this..." Before Gu Qishen finished his questioning, An Ruowan asked the next question.
"What did you do to your cousin?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Qishen could no longer control himself and covered his mouth with both hands. He couldn't say it, but he had to say it.
"I am ready to cook rice with Miss Song, so that she can agree to this marriage."
Gu Qishen watched helplessly as his hands and mouth struggled here, but he still said everything on his mind without missing a word.
Not only did An Ruowan's expression change this time, but Song Xunchuan on the side had already clenched his fists and couldn't control the trembling on his body.
"So, the second prince's rhetoric just now was a lie?"
Gu Qishen nodded, "What I just said is so that I can return to the palace smoothly. After I return, my mother-in-law will naturally arrange everything for me."
After the words fell, Gu Qishen closed his eyes with a look of despair. He didn't expect to say anything.
"It seems that Concubine Qiong is also aware of the second prince's move."
An Ruowan's eyes flashed with sternness. She didn't understand why Gu Qishen and Concubine Qiong insisted on having trouble with Song Li. She was sure that Gu Qishen didn't like Song Li at all.
"Why are you doing this!"
After she finished speaking, Gu Qishen cast his hateful eyes on her.
"Of course it's because of you. I know that what you care about most is the safety of everyone in the Duke's mansion, so I want to eliminate everything you value little by little!"
Listening to Gu Qishen's heart-rending words, the smile on An Ruowan's lips disappeared little by little.
"The second prince really has a good plan."
Several people who had just heard the whole incident were also stunned on the spot, unable to imagine that the reason why Gu Qishen did such a thing was so ridiculous.
"I have asked you all the questions I want to ask. Does the Second Prince still want to leave?"
After the words fell, An Ruowan stood up.
Gu Qishen looked at the scene in front of him and confirmed that she was really ready to let her go. Then he let the secret guard help him and walked out quickly.
Seeing this, Song Xunchuan couldn't help but stood up immediately, "Cousin, this..."
Before he could finish speaking, An Ruowan raised her hand to interrupt him, "Cousin, come into the palace with me."
Song Xunchuan didn't speak anymore, but quietly followed An Ruowan out.
"Wanwan..."
The aunt wanted to say something else, but An Ruowan said without looking back: "This matter happened because of me, so I will naturally give an explanation to my cousin."
The other people behind him didn't speak any more, and just watched the two figures disappear.
When the two came to the palace together, An Ruowan went to the imperial study without hesitation. However, after entering, he did not see Gu Qishen. It seemed that he had really gone to Concubine Qiong to find a solution.
"Why did you come to the palace today?"
The emperor looked a little unhappy, as if he didn't want to see An Ruowan.
Hearing this, An Ruowan came to the emperor in a neither humble nor overbearing manner and bowed, "My wife has met the Holy Emperor. She came to the palace today to seek justice for my cousin."
The emperor frowned slightly and motioned for An Ruowan to continue speaking.
"The second prince broke into the Duke's mansion today with the intention of doing something wrong to his cousin. I hope the Holy One will make the decision for my cousin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, An Ruowan knocked his head to the ground.
At this moment, the father-in-law outside the palace hurriedly came to the emperor, lowered his head and whispered something in his ear.
"Why is she here?"
An Ruowan said nothing, and even the angle of raising his head did not change at all.
The emperor was aware of everything in front of him, and finally waved his hand to invite people outside the house to come in.
As Concubine Qiong came to the palace, An Ruowan immediately heard a burst of sobbing. It was Concubine Qiong who came in crying with a handkerchief covering her cheek.
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"
As soon as these words came out, the emperor felt that one was as big as two, as if he had heard such similar words just now.
"What happened?"
When the emperor saw the crying Concubine Qiong in front of him, he subconsciously spoke.
Concubine Qiong came all the way to the emperor, as if she didn't see An Ruowan beside her at all, and threw herself into the emperor's arms, "Shen'er was seriously injured and is now unconscious. We must catch the person who attacked Shen'er! "
As soon as these words came out, the emperor's eyes widened unconsciously, as if he didn't expect that someone would dare to attack the prince in broad daylight, "Who on earth dared to attack Shen'er because of his heart and courage?"
At this moment, Concubine Qiong seemed to notice an extra figure in the room, "How come Concubine Rong is here?"
An Ruowan almost wanted to laugh, "Why am I here? I'm afraid I have to ask the second prince that the empress talks about."
"What, is it possible that the person who hurt Shen'er is Princess Rong?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Concubine Qiong's words, which made it impossible to detect any element of performance.
"Who on earth injured the second prince like this? Could it be that the second prince didn't even tell you, my queen? How could we possibly know?"
An Ruowan's words also made the emperor temporarily come to his senses. Indeed, he knew Gu Qishen's temper very well, so how could he finally meet Concubine Qiong and say nothing.
"Your Majesty, Shen'er did say something, but I thought it was too shocking, so I didn't say it in front of Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"
As she spoke, Concubine Qiong knelt down on the ground, but the emperor still took action to stop her.
"Oh? Why don't you tell me, I also want to hear what this matter is about."
Only then did Concubine Qiong act as if she had to speak, and said everything in reverse.
