The future? Concubine Feng stood in front of the window. There were fresh lilies in the vase on the yellow rosewood high table, which were emitting a faint fragrance. Concubine Feng smelled the fragrance of the flowers, with the corners of her mouth curled up, but there was no smile in her eyes.
She once thought she had a future. If her son were still alive, her future would certainly be extremely bright.
So she could hold back her anger and loneliness, because she knew that as long as her son was alive, everything would belong to her. But now her son was dead.
What future does she have
Nanny Jiang sat next to her. Since they were the only ones in the palace, there was no need to be shy about what they said. She nodded gently, "Of course we have to think about the future..." She said, "To be disrespectful, the Third Prince is gone, but the living have to continue living. Think about it, there are still people in the Feng family... You are not too old, since Queen Fang can get pregnant, why can't you?"
She gave birth to a child at the age of seventeen, and the third prince died at the age of sixteen. She was already in her thirties...
She covered her mouth with her hands, smiled and coughed: "Did someone come to the house again?"
The Feng family is now scared. All the heads of the family have died, leaving only the elderly, the weak and the sick. Therefore, they hold her even tighter, fearing that this life-saving straw will be gone.
Nanny Jiang did not hide the truth from her and hummed honestly, then continued: "What they said does make some sense. Although it is for their own good, it is also for your good..."
She looked at Concubine Feng, her eyes sparkling as she told her, "Your Majesty, she said that the old nun who treated Princess Duan is indeed very capable... You might as well trust her for once and invite her to take good care of you. After all, you are still young! Have you forgotten? The Empress Gaozu was 42 years old when she gave birth to the late Emperor..."
Concubine Feng leaned back in the chair somewhat tiredly, and after a while she uttered a deep laugh.
Feng is that idiot.
How could Feng herself not have the ability to help Princess Duan find a nun? Everything depended on the Chu Palace.
How could the Chu Palace be so deliberate in dealing with the Wei family in order to help her avenge the Third Prince
The King of Chu probably thought everyone was a fool.
But she is not stupid.
She knew in her heart that Cao An and Cao Wen were killed by the Wei family, and the King of Chu wanted to deal with the Wei family again, which must be related to Cao An and Cao Wen. And since it was related to Cao An and Cao Wen, then who would believe that he had no part in the conspiracy against the third prince
Of course she hated the Wei family.
But she hated the King of Chu even more.
After dealing with the Wei family, the next person to deal with is the King of Chu.
The King of Chu now wants to use the nun to do something to her again...
She suddenly laughed and said to Madam Jiang, "Okay, Madam, please invite the person over so I can take a look."
She summoned the nun to the palace, and the Princess of Chu got the news. She looked at the head aunt, who led everyone to retreat. She then looked at the King of Chu and said, "The Royal Concubine really believed it."
The King of Chu had obviously anticipated this, and he showed no other emotions at all: "How could she not believe it? At her age, with her only son dead, it's natural for her to try anything desperate. Let Nun Jingci coax her well and give her some benefits first. We can talk about it after we get to know each other well."
Princess Chu responded softly with a "yes".
Then he asked him, "Now that everything is fine, when will we take action against the Wei family? I don't know if Concubine Feng and Queen Fang can persuade His Majesty."
Of course he could. One was his beloved wife, who was pregnant, and the other was his childhood sweetheart, who had just lost her son. How could he refuse the wishes of these two people
He sneered disdainfully: "Don't worry, if the two of them can't persuade him now, I'm afraid no one in this world can persuade him. As for when to take action against the Wei family..."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Of course, the sooner the better."
The Palace of Prince Zheng, which is just across the street from the Palace of Prince Chu, is much more chaotic than the Palace of Prince Chu. Prince Zheng is not in good health. He was assassinated last time. Although he survived, the wound was left. In winter, he suffers a dull pain in his chest.
He was lying in the room, his brows tightly furrowed, listening to the people talking below.
When he heard that Wei An had entered the palace, he immediately sat up.
Why did Queen Fang summon Wei An into the palace for no reason
The people below understood his thoughts and quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, it's just because Miss Seven is a lucky star, and the Queen wants to take advantage of Miss Seven's blessings. Miss Seven has also received many rewards!"
King Zheng's headache was getting worse. He raised his hand to interrupt the conversation, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. He calmly ordered, "Go and ask Eunuch An... See if he knows what happened in the palace."
Queen Fang is not someone who would show favors for no reason.
He doesn't believe it.
After all, a lot of thought had been put into Eunuch An, and the guards soon got the news and came back to tell King Zheng the whole story.
All I know is that Wei An was received by Concubine Feng, but I know nothing else.
King Zheng's worries became more and more serious. His throat was a little itchy. He coughed, rested for a while, and then ordered him: "Go and invite the small town country of Linjiang Palace..."
He paused, then called him back: "Forget it, I'll go find him myself."
Shen Chen probably knows much more about the Wei family's affairs than he does.
But he still felt very uncomfortable, so after changing his clothes, he went to the backyard again.
Qinghe didn't expect him to come here. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him in surprise and joy.
He sat upright on the chair at the top, looking at her solemnly for a long time before asking, "You really know nothing about what happened back then?"
Qing He looked up at him, seemingly not understanding why he suddenly brought up old matters again, and did not speak for a moment.
King Zheng looked at her with a colder look in his eyes, and asked again in a calm voice: "You used to be a maid, don't you know when the princess escaped? And why did she escape?"
Qing He bit her lip and subconsciously moved back, trying to get away from King Zheng's scrutinizing gaze. She was so excited that even her stomach seemed to hurt a little. After a while, she shook her head with a pale face.
Looking at this expression, who would believe that she knew nothing
Prince Zheng frowned and walked a little closer. He looked at her for a while, not knowing whether he was happy or angry. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and grabbed her neck: "I once told the princess that no matter what, I would always stand by her side. But the princess left in the end... You really don't know why?!"
Of the four girls Ming Yuyou took away, only Qing He survived. Even if he wanted to start investigating others, he would not be able to find anything. His people had been hitting a wall everywhere recently, and he still could not find any trace of what happened back then. His patience was really running out.
