"Today is Laba Festival, and all the palaces are distributing porridge here. The porridge stall of the Ningxia Palace is not here." Jiang Changning did not add or subtract anything, and told the story truthfully from the moment Song Yirou angrily got off the car to what happened just now.
Qin Zhaoxi didn't know what to say, he just felt that Song Yirou was really stupid, "If you have nothing else, Princess Ningxia, please go back to the porridge stall at the Ningxia Palace, and don't disturb Princess Jin and the others from distributing porridge here."
"You want me to leave like this?" Song Yirou didn't use the stairs to go down. She glared at Qin Zhaoxi, "Zhao Xifang tried to murder me, and Jiang Changning is also a suspect. You should arrest them and interrogate them."
Jiang Changning was amused by her words and pursed his lips to hold back his laughter.
Zhao Xifang sneered, and Qin Zhaoxi said seriously: "If Princess Ningxia has sufficient evidence, she can report it to the authorities. The governor of Jingdu will definitely handle it impartially."
"By then, we don't know who will be locked up. After all, the medicine was bought by someone's wet nurse." Zhao Xifang said with her hand covering her mouth.
Song Yirou snorted coldly and flicked her sleeves heavily, "Let's go."
As he spoke, he got on the carriage. Jiang Changning looked at the carriage going away with his brows slightly furrowed. What was the point of Song Yirou making such a fuss
Suddenly a word came to my mind: werewolf self-destruction.
Now that Song Yirou, the troublemaker, is gone, the farce is over, and it's time for Qin Zhaoxi to continue patrolling.
He bowed to Jiang Changning and said, "Thank you, Princess Jin. I have official business to attend to. Bye."
Jiang Changning bowed slightly, "It's a big festival, and Lord Qin still has official business to attend to. You must be very tired."
"It's my duty. It's not hard." Qin Zhaoxi didn't want to be the commander of the Beijing City Patrol, but after his mother cried, made a fuss and even threatened to hang herself, he had no choice but to agree.
But after meeting Jiang Changning here today, he felt that being an official was not a bad thing.
Qin Zhaoxi left, and Jiang Changning returned to the porridge stall and continued to serve porridge.
A quarter of an hour later, Fu Lin and the others left one after another, and then Zhao Xifang was about to leave. Jiang Changning suddenly called out, "Princess Yu."
Zhao Xifang stopped and looked back, "Princess Jin, what can I do for you?"
Jiang Changning walked slowly in front of her. "Princess Yu was afraid of the power of the Song family and didn't want to confront Princess Ningxia. I can understand that, but Princess Yu shouldn't have used me as a shield. Princess Yu also doesn't want to be the bad guy who died because of you, even though Bo Ren was not killed by you, right?"
"Princess Jin, the innocent person is Boren. Are you sure you are innocent?" Zhao Xifang questioned aggressively, as if she was superior.
Jiang Changning sneered, "I see. Princess Yu is determined to throw this basin of dirty water on me."
"Whether it's dirty water or not, Princess Jin knows it very well."
"Someone once said that you can't wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, and it's true." Jiang Changning turned around and walked to a sheltered place to sit down, no longer wasting time talking to Zhao Xifang.
Zhao Xifang looked at her with a hint of fear in her eyes. After investigating for such a long time, she indeed did not find out that it was Jiang Changning who did it.
But Zhao Xifang felt that this was Jiang Changning's doing. She took advantage of Song Yirou to cause trouble today and deliberately involved Jiang Changning in order to expose him.
However, Jiang Changning's flawless preparation did not make Zhao Xifang give up the idea, but made her even more determined.
Not long after Zhao Xifang left, a horse came over. Seeing the sign clearly, Su Fei said excitedly, "Princess, it's the prince."
"Maybe it's Concubine Mourning." Jiang Changning said calmly.
"Princess, the person following the carriage is Cao Jiang." Shu Fei reminded her.
The person sitting in the carriage with the logo of Prince of Jin's Palace may not be the Prince of Jin, but the person Cao Jiang is following must be the Prince of Jin.
The carriage stopped, the door opened, revealing the handsome face of Prince Jin.
He got off the carriage and walked towards Jiang Changning.
Jiang Changning smiled, "Your Majesty, come here. What's the matter?"
"I'm here to take you to lunch." Prince Jin said with a smile.
"It's so cold, why are you staying here for so long? Go back home as soon as you hit the clock. Look at your face, it's red from the cold." Prince Jin reached out to touch Jiang Changning's face.
Jiang Changning did not avoid it this time, and Prince Jin touched his face, "My sister-in-law said that we have to keep watch."
Prince Jin frowned slightly and said, "Just listen to what my sister-in-law said. You can see that other palaces don't have masters guarding them all the time."
"The Princess of Yu had just left, and I was just about to go back home when the Prince came." Jiang Changning smiled, "Thank goodness I didn't leave in a hurry, otherwise the Prince would have come to nothing."
"That's true." Prince Jin said with a smile.
After having lunch at the restaurant, the couple returned to the palace. In the afternoon, Jiang Changning stayed in the palace with Prince Jin and did not go to the porridge stall.
The Ningxia Queen Mother and the Ningxia King knew that Song Yirou went to the Yingjiao Street intersection to cause trouble. The Ningxia King was extremely angry and shouted, "Are you crazy?"
Having offended two princely palaces at once, the Prince of Ningxia was about to have a heart attack.
Song Yirou didn't think she was wrong at all, "The two of them colluded to harm me, I'm going to settle the score with them."
"Do you have evidence?" asked the King of Ningxia.
Song Yirou didn't have any evidence, but she said stubbornly: "It's them. If I say it's them, it's them."
"You are simply unreasonable." King Ningxia said hatefully.
Song Yirou raised her head with a proud look on her face.
The Ningxia Queen Mother sighed and shook her head. She couldn't count on her daughter-in-law, so she could only rely on this old woman. "Okay, go back to the yard and rest."
Song Yirou stomped her feet, turned around and left.
"Have someone prepare two valuable gifts. I will personally go to the Prince of Jin's Mansion and the Prince of Yu's Mansion to apologize." The Ningxia Queen Mother said helplessly.
"Mother, how can I let you come out? Let my son go." said the King of Ningxia.
The Ningxia Queen Dowager rubbed her forehead and said, "This is a matter between the women. It is not appropriate for you to go."
"The Prince of Yu's Mansion is easy to deal with, after all, there is an old grudge with the Princess of Yu. As for the Prince of Jin's Mansion, the Princess of Jin is completely unprovoked. I'm afraid the Prince of Jin will not let her go easily." The Prince of Ningxia had a worried look on his face.
"Sister Ning, I'm talking about the Princess of Jin. The Princess of Jin has always been kind and generous. What's more, the person who actually dragged her into this matter was the Princess of Yu. She won't blame the Princess." Zhuang Qingchan, who had been trying to please the Concubine Dowager in order to gain a firm foothold in the palace and had been pretending to be a wallflower, interrupted in a low voice.
As soon as she spoke, the King of Ningxia and the Queen Mother of Ningxia remembered her relationship with Jiang Changning.
Ningxia Queen Mother said with a smile: "Qingchan, Princess Jin is your cousin, right?"
"Yes, Concubine, we have lived together for nine years and get along very well." Zhuang Qingchan said with a smile.
Ningxia Wang Taifei showed her joy, "Qingchan, you should go to Jin Wang Mansion tomorrow and contact Jin Wang Fei to get in touch with her and say something nice to her."
Zhuang Qingchan stood up and saluted, "Yes, Concubine Dowager."
The Ningxia Queen Mother glanced at the Ningxia King, who understood and stepped forward to help her up, "Thank you for your hard work, Madam."
Zhuang Qingchan pursed her lips and smiled, "It's not hard for me to be able to share the worries of the Concubine Dowager and the Prince."
That night, King Ningxia entered Zhuang Qingchan's yard and asked for water twice.
