Although Concubine Qiong was angry that Gu Qishen had done such a ridiculous thing, what made her even more angry at the moment was An Ruowan's attitude just now.
"She actually dares to contradict me in public! Does she even take me seriously?"
Hearing this, Gu Qishen felt relieved, "Princess Rong has always been like this. Mother and concubine don't need to take this matter to heart."
After hearing this, Concubine Qiong's face became even more ugly, "Okay, in three days, I also want to know how capable the Zhenguo Palace is!"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Qishen knew that Concubine Qiong would never ignore the matter, so he immediately raised his lips and said, "Thank you, concubine."
An Ruowan on the other side walked out of the palace gate before waving for the carriage from Prince Rong's palace.
"Cousin, this matter..."
Before Song Xunchuan finished speaking, he saw An Ruowan getting on the carriage quickly and did not forget to wave to him.
"What are you doing standing around stupidly? We'll talk about it when we get back."
After sighing, Song Xunchuan had no choice but to jump on the carriage.
When the carriage stopped outside the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, the two of them returned to the mansion one after the other.
"Wanwan, what's the situation?"
Auntie walked over first, with an anxious look on her face, fearing that she would hear some bad news from An Ruowan.
"Don't worry, aunt, the Holy One has promised to find out the matter within three days."
The first thing An Ruowan said when she opened her mouth made her aunt feel relieved a little.
It's just that Song Yuanzhi's face on the side looked a little more serious. If this was really the case, then why would An Ruowan come back here? There must be something else going on.
However, he did not tell the matter directly in front of everyone. He just called An Ruowan into the study after everyone left.
"Honestly, what is going on today?"
When An Ruowan saw her grandfather, she already guessed that there was something fishy going on. She had no intention of hiding it and told everything that happened in the palace today.
"I see, the second prince is indeed very capable."
Song Yuanzhi snorted coldly, and then said, "I didn't expect Concubine Qiong to play such a trick now."
Listening to her grandfather's words, An Ruowan had a look of doubt in her eyes. It was obvious that there was something in her grandfather's words, but she did not ask in detail.
"Wanwan, apart from the two brats in the mansion, the only witnesses to this matter are the secret guards around the second prince. Both sides hold different opinions. I wonder how Wanwan thinks this matter can be solved?"
"Both sides may not necessarily insist on their own opinions."
An Ruowan's eyes were filled with determination.
But Song Yuanzhi looked at her with twinkling eyes and already understood the meaning behind her words, but he was still struggling with whether to let her participate in it.
"Grandpa, if something goes wrong in the Zhenguo Palace because of this matter, I will feel very sorry!"
Sensing the hesitation in her grandfather's eyes, An Ruowan spoke without hesitation.
Song Yuanzhi understood that since An Ruowan entered the palace today, this matter was closely related to her, so he had no choice but to sigh.
"That's all, even if I don't want you to participate, I'm afraid you won't be obedient."
Only then did An Ruowan raise the corner of her mouth, "Thank you, grandpa."
At this time, Song Yuanzhi's face became more serious, "If this matter can really come true, then I should thank Princess Rong."
"Grandpa!"
Looking at the expression on An Ruowan's face, Song Yuanzhi said nothing more.
After An Ruowan left the study, he went straight to Song Li's courtyard.
"Don't worry, cousin. I will definitely seek justice for my cousin."
"Wanwan, no need." Song Li spoke for the first time. Unexpectedly, what she said made An Ruowan's eyes widen.
"Why? Is it possible that we should be humiliated for nothing?"
As soon as these words came out, Song Li's face turned pale, but she still bit her lower lip and spoke.
"It's really no need. Even if we really find out what's going on, what can we do?"
So what? These words fell heavily on An Ruowan's heart, making her frown.
Even if she really found out that what happened today was indeed Gu Qishen's doing, what would the emperor do to Gu Qishen? How to heal the harm caused by this matter to my cousin?
These questions flooded into An Ruowan's mind, causing her to frown unconsciously.
But when her eyes fell on Song Li, her eyes became a little clearer.
"We cannot control the outcome, but if everyone is afraid of the outcome, the evil in the world will only increase!"
Song Li didn't understand the truth, but when it really happened to her, she felt the pain.
"cousin……"
Before An Ruowan could finish her words, Song Li slowly closed her eyes.
"Whatever happens, let it take its course. I'm a little tired."
An Ruowan understood that Song Li was expelling her in disguise, so he silently stood up and helped her cover the quilt, then turned and left.
The result of letting nature take its course will only be that Gu Qishen is safe and sound, so she will definitely not sit back and watch!
After leaving the Zhenguo Palace, An Ruowan still felt that everything that happened was like a dream, but the only thing that remained unchanged was her anger towards Gu Qishen.
When she returned, she saw Gu Beichen standing outside the courtyard waiting for her.
An Ruowan said nothing, opened her hands and threw herself into his arms.
Feeling the warmth close at hand and hearing Gu Beichen's heartbeat in her ears, An Ruowan gradually calmed down.
I don't know how long it took, but it wasn't until An Ruowan finally felt that her mood had returned to calm that she struggled out of Gu Beichen's arms.
"Would you like a meal?"
A flash of surprise flashed across An Ruowan's eyebrows. She originally thought that Gu Beichen would ask her about today's events.
"good."
After answering, An Ruowan immediately raised the corners of her mouth. Only after eating and drinking enough did she have the strength to do other things.
When the meal was over, neither of them moved.
"Can I ask the prince for a favor?"
Gu Qishen's eyes fell on An Ruowan, and then he nodded slightly.
In the dark night, everything was silent.
An Ruowan was already prepared here, because she had asked Gu Beichen to put something on Gu Qishen's secret guard last night.
After knowing that the matter was successful, she took out the porcelain bottle from her waist and put it in front of her eyes, "Fat Bai, what happens next is up to you."
Yes, An Ruowan had bewitched the man, but she didn't plan to do anything. She just wanted to wait until the emperor investigated the matter and let him tell the truth.
Three days passed by in a flash, but no news came out from the palace, and An Ruowan did not send anyone to find out. The result will be known today.
After waiting for a long time, the emperor finally ordered them to enter the palace together.
An Ruowan looked at the majestic palace in front of her, but there was no wave in her eyes.
Walking straight into the palace, An Ruowan leaned down and saluted, "My wife has met your Majesty."
An Ruowan was the last one to come in. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the people kneeling in the hall. Apart from Gu Qishen, they were the few witnesses her grandfather spoke about that day.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get started."
As the emperor's words fell, Song Xunchuan couldn't help but stood up first and told everything he saw and heard that day.
