Thinking that Mengbao was about to arrive, Anxin immediately sent Wangchuan to prepare things that Mengbao liked. For so long, the mother and son communicated through letters.
It is said that mother and child are connected by heart. Often, An Xin can understand Meng Bao's mental state and hobbies from his letters. Although she is not by his side, her concern for Meng Bao is not less than Ning Yan's.
…
Ningguo, Qianqing Palace.
Ning Yan was dealing with state affairs. He had always remembered An Xin's instructions to him. Ning Yan secretly vowed to turn Ningguo into the most powerful country among the Three Kingdoms, and also hoped to become a good emperor who worked hard and loved his people. Ning Yan had been working hard to fulfill his promise to An Xin.
When Ning Yan was handling government affairs, the eunuch beside him came forward respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Empress Gu is here..."
Originally, Ning Yan was in a quite calm mood, but when he heard the eunuch mention the word "Madam Gu", he was overwhelmed with disgust...
What a haunted woman...
The head eunuch was Ning Yan's personal attendant, and she knew that Madam Gu was an irresistible existence for Ning Yan. It wasn't about emotions, but she had to indulge Madam Gu due to the pressure of some things...
The Empress Gu was dressed in gorgeous clothes, holding a food box in her hand. Empress Gu walked over slowly, and when she saw Ning Yan, she said softly: "Your Majesty should not be so busy, and you should take a break. Why don't you try the cakes made by me?"
Ning Yan glanced at the chief eunuch, who immediately understood what he meant and stood up and left. Suddenly, only Empress Gu and Ning Yan were left in the palace.
Madam Gu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you taste it carefully? After all, this is what I made with great care..."
Ning Yan looked at Madam Gu and said coldly: "Are you very careful? I dare not, I'm afraid you have poisoned it!" Ning Yan raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth, looked at Madam Gu mercilessly and said.
Madam Gu was born beautiful, like a banished fairy. The only flaw was that her eyes were too empty and her skin was too white, not the pure and flawless white, but the kind of white that was full of sickness.
This Empress Gu was the woman named Gu Changge that An Xin had heard from Lin Qingcheng, and who was taken into the harem as a concubine by Ning Yan.
Gu Changge heard this and smiled softly, saying, "I love Your Majesty so much, how could I bear to poison it?"
Ning Yan sneered after hearing this. He looked at Gu Changge and said coldly as always: "How can a puppet like you know what love is?"
Hearing Ning Yan's words, Gu Changge laughed instead of getting angry. She covered her face and smiled gently, saying: "Your Majesty is too slow to find out. It's been almost a year since you found out my identity..."
Ning Yan looked at Gu Changge and said: "Actually, I have discovered your identity a long time ago, but I just kept doing nothing to see what you are up to! Now the poison in your body has been cleared. There is no point in keeping you now!" As he spoke, Ning Yan moved closer and grabbed Gu Changge's slender neck with a cruel look on his face.
He hated the woman in front of him. If it weren't for her, how could Qingqing have been lying in bed for half a year and almost died!
Gu Changge did not react. He looked at Ning Yan calmly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, Your Majesty? With your ability, how can you get rid of that poison? Do you think the master has been looking for useless things for so long?"
"Master, are you talking about being An Rou?" Ning Yan snorted coldly.
Based on some clues, Ning Yan still discovered something unusual. He followed up the investigation and found out that the person behind Gu Changge was An Rou.
However, Ning Yan has not found An Rou yet, but according to his inquiries, he has figured out that An Rou should be hiding somewhere in Miaojiang. But where exactly she is remains to be verified.
Speaking of Miaojiang, there are some unusual movements in Miaojiang now. The Miaojiang King seems to be sending troops to rebel.
It also involved Meng Bao's life, which forced Ning Yan to retreat again and again! Ning Yan now saw Gu Changge say this again, and he felt a little timid in his heart, and he didn't dare to gamble with Meng Bao's life.
"Since Your Majesty has guessed it, why are you still asking? It's really unnecessary." Gu Changge said tenderly. She played with her nails, looking nonchalant, as if everything in the world was her plaything and she came here just to play with life.
Ning Yan was in no mood to say another word to Gu Changge, after all, Gu Changge was just a puppet. After saying that, Ning Yan looked at Gu Changge coldly and left. Only Gu Changge was left standing there in a daze. She looked at Ning Yan with empty eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of struggle in the depths of her eyes.
After leaving the Qianqing Palace, Ning Yan immediately came to the palace where Su Ya lived.
Seeing Ning Yan coming here, Su Ya was quite surprised and said: "Why is your majesty here?"
Su Ya was very surprised. Since entering the palace, Su Ya and Ning Yan had been meeting in a very regular manner. Counting, it has been more than a month since she last saw Ning Yan. Unexpectedly, Ning Yan suddenly came to her palace.
Su Ya thought something had happened, so she asked, "Did something happen to Xinxin? Or did something happen to Mengbao? Otherwise, why would you come here with such a bad look on your face?"
Ning Yan sighed and said: "Just now, Gu Changge came to my palace..."
Seeing Ning Yan mention Gu Changge, Su Ya snorted coldly and said: "Why is that witch here? If someone is being too attentive for no reason, she must be a traitor or a thief!" Su Ya said.
Ning Yan was also a little angry, and then he explained to Su Ya: "Now I have found out that the master behind Gu Changge is An Rou. An Rou is probably in Miaojiang. But I don't know where she is hiding. Half a year ago, I sent people to find strange people. I wanted to remove the poison in Mengbao's body. I thought I had done it, but I didn't expect that after so long, the poison in Mengbao's body is still there..."
Hearing Ning Yan's story, Su Ya looked worried. She said anxiously, "Now that Meng Bao has gone to Lan Cang to look for Xin Xin, will anything happen?"
Ning Yan heard this and said confidently: "Don't worry, I have placed the most elite guards beside Meng Bao and given him many weapons for self-defense. He will be fine. As for the poison, it depends on whether Qing Qing can find a solution. I believe that with Qing Qing's intelligence, she will definitely find some clues..."
Ning Yan was actually worried that when he was dealing with some things, he would not be able to take care of Meng Bao. He thought that after clearing the poison from Meng Bao, he would send Meng Bao away from the place of trouble...
