Chu Yunfei collected her emotions and said calmly: "Why is Rong Cang so close to Chu Yunjiao?"
Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then told the truth: "The prince is just putting on a show and wants the princess to give up and leave the palace as soon as possible."
He did not say that after the prince forcibly resisted getting close to Chu Yunjiao for show, he secretly had to wash his hands countless times and wished he could rub off a layer of skin before giving up. He also asked him to take away all the robes that Chu Yunjiao had touched. threw.
Chu Yunfei twitched the corners of her lips and said noncommittally: "My father is only a third-grade minister. The princess who is divorced by the prince will become the laughing stock of the whole capital. Has he not considered this issue?"
Women are inherently weak and rely on their father and mother at home.
But in the final analysis, this world belongs to men.
A woman who was abandoned by the royal family was no longer perfect. Secondly, because of her status as a royal family, it was naturally impossible for her to remarry - although she had no intention of remarrying.
His father was a third-rank official, and his official position was not low. However, in the capital where there were many powerful people, a third-rank official really couldn't do anything. What's more, the Chu family was a rising star, and was not worth mentioning compared to those aristocratic families that had accumulated hundreds of years of wealth.
If Chu Yunfei is divorced, one can imagine how much ridicule and humiliation she will suffer. There will no longer be a place for her in the capital.
"There will be someone from Langya City to pick up the princess." Changqing lowered his head and hesitated. Unable to withstand the pressure of the princess, he simply sold out all the prince's plans. "As long as the princess is alive, nothing else matters. The prince said that pain is temporary. As time goes by, sooner or later it will fade.”
A sneer appeared on Chu Yunfei's lips: "He is smarter than anyone else."
Changqing lowered his head silently.
"Since he thinks about me so much, I will definitely not disappoint his kindness." Chu Yunfei said in a cold tone, "After I cure his poison, I will take the child in my belly and fly far away, so that I will not hinder his eyes from now on. .”
ah?
Changqing was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Chu Yunfei, this...isn't this not good?
"I still have something to ask you, and I hope you can answer me truthfully." Chu Yunfei quickly returned to the topic, "Rong Cang went to the battlefield at the age of fourteen. Has anyone tried to murder him in these years?"
Chang Qing thought for a while: "It is normal for someone to plot on the battlefield. When the two armies are fighting, in addition to direct fighting, there are also conspiracies."
"What about our own people?"
Chang Qing shook his head: "The generals trained by the prince are all brave and loyal, and they will not harm the prince."
Chu Yunfei was silent for a moment, then slowly put down the tea cup: "So you can't figure out who cast the poison in the prince's body?"
Changqing nodded: "I really don't know."
"You will ask the guards to come over later. Starting tonight, the two of you will be responsible for rearranging the defenses in the front and inner courtyards of the palace." Chu Yunfei did not ask any more questions and made arrangements on her own, "Within the scope allowed by the imperial power, It must be as tight and thorough as possible to ensure that not a single mosquito can fly in.”
"Princess, don't worry, my subordinates will take care of it." Chang Qing agreed, and he would not make any mistakes in terms of protection and safety. "The guards in the mansion have always been very tight, but the fifth princess and the prince are from the same mother, and the princess was not at home just now. The servants didn't dare to stop her driving, so they gave her the opportunity to visit the prince in Jinlin Courtyard."
Chu Yunfei hummed: "If I want to send a letter to Langya City, do you have any way to deliver it as quickly as possible without being intercepted by anyone?"
Chang Qing said: "The prince has secret guards around him."
"Secret guard?" Chu Yunfei's eyebrows moved slightly, "Then..."
"They have only been with the prince for five years, so they don't know about the poison." Chang Qing seemed to know what Chu Yunfei was thinking, and said with regret, "The secret guards were secretly trained by the prince. The Wei camp is not in the capital, but they are elusive and there is no problem in delivering letters."
As he spoke, Chang Qing's voice became much softer: "There are actually two female secret guards around the princess. It was arranged by the prince to protect you. Unless there are special circumstances, they will generally not appear."
Chu Yunfei was surprised: "There are also secret guards around me?"
"yes."
Chu Yunfei was about to ask again when footsteps hurriedly came from outside. Baochan quickly stepped into the door and reported hurriedly: "Princess, there is someone from the palace, coming to the inner courtyard."
Chu Yunfei's eyebrows suddenly turned cold: "Mengxia, stop the outside."
"Yes!" Shengxia flew away.
Bao Chan was silent and whispered: "Princess, she is a female official sent by the imperial concubine."
"It doesn't matter." Chu Yunfei said with a cold expression, "Just let Shengxia stop him first."
"Yes." Baochan said no more.
"The palace has strengthened its security and must ensure that no outsider can enter the inner courtyard." Chu Yunfei turned to look at Changqing and warned again, "There is no need to tell Rong Cang about my conversation with you tonight."
"yes."
"In addition, you arrange for a reliable person to go out at night to find something for me." Chu Yunfei's voice was slightly lowered, "Toads, snakes, scorpions, centipedes, geckos... all are alive. Except for me, don't let them. Others know.”
Chang Qing's face changed slightly, and he was about to ask the princess what she wanted these poisons for, but she saw that Chu Yunfei had already stood up, straightened her clothes slowly, and walked out.
Chang Qing swallowed the words as they reached her lips and nodded silently: "Yes."
Chu Yunfei took Baochan out of the inner courtyard and saw the female officer, or it could be said to be a female doctor, who was stopped in the front yard from a distance.
The imperial concubine has a female official who is good at medicine, named Liu Qingxi. She is young, in her early twenties. The maids around the imperial concubine all respectfully call her aunt.
When Chu Yunfei saw this person, he understood the purpose of her coming.
"The princess is here!" Baochan reminded.
"Princess." Mother Xiong turned around and saluted Chu Yunfei, "The imperial concubine sent Doctor Liu here to boil medicine for the prince."
The female officer raised her eyes and looked towards Chu Yunfei, her face expressionless, and her eyes even showed some aloofness.
"Your servant Liu Qingxi, please see the princess." The female officer knelt down and saluted, her movements were very standard, but there was no trace of respect on her face. "My slave, by the order of the princess, I came to boil medicine for the prince."
"Decoction?" Chu Yunfei was slightly surprised, as if he didn't understand, "There are so many servants in Prince Zhan's palace who know how to decoct medicine. How dare you trouble the imperial concubine to send someone here in person?"
Liu Qingxi lowered her eyes and said, "They don't understand medicine. The imperial concubine is worried. I have to come and watch them in person."
"Are you worried that I will be unfavorable to the prince?" Chu Yunfei frowned, with just the right hint of displeasure on his face, "Rong Cang did something wrong first, and I went back to my parents' house because I was so angry. I didn't mean to harm him. He received such a beating from the emperor, I...I thought the emperor would reprimand him at most..."
At the end of the sentence, his tone couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"The Imperial Concubine does not blame the Princess." Liu Qingxi explained, "The Imperial Concubine is just too worried about the Prince, and I happen to understand medical science, so I asked the slave to come and keep an eye on me for a few days."
Chu Yunfei was silent for a moment: "In that case, I'm tired of bothering my aunt."
Liu Qingxi bowed: "I don't dare, it's my duty as a slave."
