Princess Fenyang curled her lips coldly: "I hope it is as you said, otherwise, what's the point of depriving you of your title of princess? Soon you will know what it's like to have a truly sad life."
These words were really too harsh. Chun'an still had tears on his face, but he didn't even have time to wipe them off. He just sat there stupidly.
Princess Fenyang glanced at her, turned her head away in annoyance, and began to calmly order people to invite several Western guests in the mansion. Mr. Lin and Mr. Chang came very quickly, and Mr. Cui came the latest. When they saw Chun'an was there, they were a little surprised, and then they reacted and saluted her.
Princess Fenyang waved her hand to excuse herself, and said politely: "Gentlemen, I was not in the mansion before, and I don't know the arrangements of the prince, but I think you should be clear, right?"
Mr. Chang and Mr. Cui looked at each other, and all three of them felt a little embarrassed.
Princess Fenyang laughed and said, "I don't mean to blame you gentlemen. It's really urgent." She told him about the palace summoning Prince Fenyang, and then said, "I am a woman, and the prince must be afraid that I can't handle it, so he didn't tell me the whole story. I asked Chun'an before and he already knew everything. Since you gentlemen are with the prince, do you know that the sixth son has been missing for eleven days, and during this time, there has been no other news from Chengde?"
Mr. Cui was the first to react. He was originally from Qinghe, and he entered the Fenyang Palace for the sake of Princess Fenyang. Now that Princess Fenyang had said so much, he naturally spoke his mind: "Even so, Princess, there is no need to be too pessimistic. Sometimes no news is the best news, isn't it?"
Mr. Chang thought for a while before asking, "Does the princess have anything else to say?"
"The Su family has returned to Beijing." Princess Fenyang said something shocking. All three of them raised their heads. Chun'an also suddenly opened her eyes wide. She knocked on the table lightly. When they came back to their senses, she said expressionlessly, "If something happened to Su Rong, would the Su family still be able to return safely?"
Princess Fenyang didn't need to explain this, and several guests knew it. Mr. Chang couldn't help asking, "Where did the princess get the news from? We didn't know this news!"
Logically speaking, they gave advice to King Fenyang, so their information channels were always well-informed. However, they didn't know anything about the so-called return of the Su family.
Princess Fenyang pulled the corner of her mouth and rubbed her brows: "It doesn't matter how I got the news, but the news is real. The Su family returned to Beijing, which means Su Rong must be fine. I also know the Su family's style of doing things. If they do this, they must have already calculated the way forward and backward. Gentlemen, now that things have come to this, what do you think?"
How can we see it? Several gentlemen were a little discouraged. If it was really as Princess Fenyang said, then this matter would be terrible.
The commotion at Chengde Garrison was too big. In order to arrange the plan, they even took Tang Ru'an and Tang Yuan into account. If the plan went smoothly, it would be the Yongning Princess's Mansion that would be pushed out. If the He family and Xiao Heng were really angry, they should be directed at the Yongning Princess's Mansion.
But now, if the plan fails, the anger that will follow will be even more intense.
Princess Fenyang couldn't help but feel resentful towards Princess Mingchang at this moment. Prince Fenyang and Princess Mingchang actually had a very good relationship. They had known each other since childhood, and the decision to build momentum for the current emperor was also the result of their discussion.
Regarding such an important matter, she didn't believe that Prince Fenyang would not ask Princess Chengchang's opinion.
But Princess Mingchang was able to stay out of it.
Princess Mingchang was completely cleared of all involvement in this matter, and there was no trace of her at all.
But it was useless to say these things now. Seeing that the gentlemen seemed to be dumb and stopped talking, Princess Fenyang could not help but cough and said lightly: "Gentlemen! Now you are in the same boat with us. It's fine as long as we are good. If there is anything wrong with us, I believe you don't want to see it. In this case, there is no need to look back and forth. Whatever method you have, bring it out and talk about it. It's better than sitting here like this, don't you think?"
Mr. Lin, who had been silent the whole time, spoke first: "Princess, I'm afraid that Lao Liu and Magistrate Jin are not very appropriate."
The fact that the Su family can come back already tells us a lot.
The fact that the palace was able to directly summon Prince Fenyang into the palace shows that they had given a lot.
Princess Fenyang closed her eyes and asked, "How bad can things get?"
"I'm afraid we should think of the worst." Mr. Lin did not hide his words. He usually didn't talk much, but at this moment, he showed his clarity of mind: "Princess, I'm afraid Jin Dong and Lao Liu have betrayed the prince."
In fact, just as Princess Fenyang considered, the ability of the Su family can be seen from what happened in the past two years. In their hands, it is more likely that even Jin Dong and Lao Liu will not be able to hold on.
Chun An didn't quite understand what he said, but she also knew how bad things would be if Jin Dong and Lao Liu betrayed Prince Fenyang. She cried out, "Why don't we think of a way quickly? We must not let our father admit it!"
"No!" Mr. Lin shook his head decisively: "We need to make the prince admit it, because there are witnesses and evidence. If the prince denies it, it will only make things worse and be more dangerous!"
Chun An's heartstrings suddenly tightened, and she stood up in excessive excitement: "How can this be possible?!"
Princess Fenyang was much calmer. She stopped Chun'an coldly and looked towards Mr. Lin: "Please give me some advice, sir."
Mr. Lin had already been in Prince Fenyang's Palace before she got married. He had been with Prince Fenyang the longest and was the one most trusted by Prince Fenyang.
The key point is that Mr. Lin has a very accurate understanding of the current emperor’s thoughts.
This is also the reason why Mr. Lin has always been treated as a distinguished guest in the mansion and has received special preferential treatment.
Mr. Lin said calmly: "The prince must have known the situation. Now it's your turn, Princess. You have to take the girl to the palace."
Princess Chun'an is no longer a princess, but Shao Wenxun had been executed before, and the emperor granted them a divorce, so she cannot be called Mrs. Shao. Mr. Lin is a little troubled about the issue of address.
But Princess Fenyang obviously wouldn't dwell on these little issues. She took a breath and said, "Sir, please feel free to give me your advice. I'm all ears."
Prince Fenyang in the palace was already sweating through his clothes.
He knelt in the square in front of the Tai Chi Hall, with countless thoughts running through his mind at this moment.
