Zhao An flicked his whip and the carriage continued on its way, but it turned into a mess behind it.
Li Chuang's neck was broken by Wu Jian.
Noises and screams came and went.
Seeing that the capital was getting closer and closer, Zhao An asked in a low voice: "The Queen Mother is not afraid that Duke Chen will cause trouble for you?"
"Isn't this what you wanted?"
Luo Qingshuang's answer was slightly sarcastic. Zhao An's scalp went numb and he smiled angrily, not daring to say anything more.
Facts have proved that the old witch has a clear heart and can see more clearly than anyone else. She did this just to show off and get the explosives.
Half an hour later, the carriage and horses stopped near Cuilan Garden.
Wu Jian drove back to the palace.
Zhao An saw Qian Yuwei, and she didn't look very good.
Zhao An asked strangely: "A relative is here?"
"What relative?"
Qian Yuwei's face was blank, and Zhao An smiled evilly and asked her what she thought of Chen's birthday banquet and the Queen Mother's return home to visit relatives.
"His Majesty's method is surprising. I didn't expect that he would announce in public that he would make the child in the queen's belly his heir. Didn't he think about what if the queen gave birth to a daughter?"
"In this case, those ministers who have daughters as concubines in the harem will be happy."
Zhao An poured a cup of tea and handed it over, but Qian Yuwei didn't take it. Her moist eyes looked sharp, "Sir, the gentleman suddenly came to see the little girl. He seems to have something to say."
"I just miss Miss Qianyu and want to sit down and talk with you."
Zhao An was actually here to test her. If the emperor didn't announce the appointment of a prince or bring out explosives, what were she and Prince Ning going to do at the banquet?
She must be the mastermind behind the scenes!
Completely meets all the conditions for speculation.
She has a relationship with Prince Ning and is close to the daughter of an aristocratic family. The most important thing is that she has people who can get things done.
Of course, these suspicions cannot be spoken out yet, otherwise the two sides may fall out.
Qian Yuwei pursed her lips and said, "What do you want to discuss, sir?"
"Let's talk about the situation of the court. Does the girl like the emperor or Chen Guogong, or do both parties think poorly?"
"The little girl is just a woman and doesn't understand the affairs of the country."
"I heard from Xiu Sanniang that Prince Ning had been to Cuilan Garden and met the girl alone. The girl was not kind, and she didn't tell you in advance even though she had such good connections. If he was around, doing business would be much easier. .”
Zhao An was talking to himself and talking about ordinary things.
There was a hint of panic in Qian Yuwei's eyes, "Prince Ning is a gentle man, and it's okay to come to Cuilan Garden occasionally. The little girl just talks about poetry and poetry with him, but Prince Ning's attainments in this way are not as good as Mr. Quite a few.”
"Miss Qianyu, don't praise me, I'm thin-skinned." Zhao An smiled without showing his teeth.
Qian Yuwei stood up and moved to her side, her beautiful face looking gentle, "Why did Mr. Zhou suddenly mention Prince Ning?"
"Well, I heard that something happened in the harem. His childhood sweetheart, Concubine Yu, almost died in the clan courtyard. Thanks to Eunuch Zhao, he came to the rescue and punished Concubine Lan. I wonder if Prince Ning will be very sad if he finds out about this."
Zhao An said, secretly observing Qian Yuwei's reaction.
Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if it was the first time she heard that Prince Ning had a green plum in his harem.
Zhao An took advantage of the opportunity and continued to encourage: "Speaking of it, the Jade Concubine is also a pitiful person. She was separated from her sweetheart by the late emperor. She was raised in a deep palace and suffered bullying for more than ten years. If Prince Ning knew how sad he would be, would he treat her Take me out of the clan home and hide your beauty in the golden house?"
Qian Yuwei opened her mouth, a little worried.
Zhao An felt that he was almost done, and before leaving, he suddenly grabbed her white hand. She was startled, and pulled her hand back as a reflex, with resistance in her eyes, "What do you want to do, sir?"
"Miss Qianyu, don't be nervous. I see that you are not in a good mood, and I happen to be proficient in medical skills and want to help you feel your pulse."
"No, no need, I'm in good health..."
"Is that so?"
Zhao An glanced at the stack of sour plums placed far away and stood up to leave.
This woman is probably pregnant with Prince Ning's child.
If you tell her about Concubine Jade, will she make trouble? Will he do something to Concubine Yu again? It seems that he will keep a close eye on her.
A jealous woman is a small reward for Prince Ning.
Zhao An swaggered out of Cuilan Garden with his hands behind his back.
As soon as the front foot left, Qian Yuwei called Xiu Sanniang into the room.
"Miss, are you looking for me?" Xiu Sanniang asked. She was suddenly slapped hard and almost fell to the ground. She covered her face in disbelief.
Qian Yuwei's eyes were full of gloom, "Slave, you are seeking death!"
"Miss, I don't know what mistake I made." Xiu Sanniang knelt on the ground and shivered.
"It was you who told Zhou Huang that Prince Ning came to see me!"
"No, I never said that!"
Xiu Sanniang shook her head and tried her best to argue.
Qian Yuwei was startled, "Have I been plotted by him? He came here specifically to test and see through our relationship, as well as my relationship with Prince Ning."
"Miss, what should we do?" Xiu Sannian lowered his head and didn't dare to breathe.
Qian Yuwei calmed down a lot, "You know what I want to do. I won't allow anyone to ruin my plan. After so many years, I can't capsize in the hands of a man."
"In two days, the Southern Holy Sect will enter the capital. It is said that Feilong Marquis will also come with him. Princess Ning is one of them. I'm afraid it won't be that easy for the young lady to marry Prince Ning."
"I can be a concubine and go investigate the clan house. I want to know everything about Princess Ning, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Lan."
"Here..."
Xiu Sanniang covered her face and hurriedly retreated.
Jinxiu entered the room and closed the door.
"Miss, are you angry?"
"I want to kill Zhou Huang, this man is beyond my control."
"Miss wants to kill him. Why did you send me to protect him last time in Dagu River?" Jinxiu was confused.
Qian Yuwei stood by the window, staring at Zhao An who was walking away on the street, "If I send you, he won't doubt me, but now he still comes to test me. He is too smart."
"Miss, just now, he accompanied the Queen Mother on a tour of the new city and played two pieces of music. I didn't expect him to be so talented and capable of almost everything. Miss, why don't you choose him? I think he is better than Prince Ning. There are too many, and it seems that he was also the one who made the explosives.”
Jinxiu Gudong knelt down, lowered her eyes and expressed her opinion.
Qian Yuwei said coldly: "Does he lack women? Xu Ruqing has thoughts about him, but he hasn't expressed anything, so naturally he won't take me seriously... Forget it, don't do it yet. To be honest, I really can't bear it. Kill him."
Ah sneeze!
Zhao An sneezed several times while walking on the street, always feeling like someone was plotting against him.
Just as he was thinking about it, several carriages hurried towards the inner city in the distance.
It is the frame of several senior officials.
Needless to say, they were going to pay homage to the empress and impeach Luo Qingshuang.
The old witch is in trouble this time.
Zhao An was happy to watch the show, and it would be better if they fought.
