"That's when it happened."
Gu Qingguan made a decisive decision, with unquestionable firmness in her words. Then she changed her subject and said, "Chen Ping, my study has been stolen. Do you know what to do?"
Chen Ping's expression was heavy, "Miss, don't worry, if there is a spy, Chen Ping will definitely find out and give the lady an explanation."
"very good!"
Gu Qingwan nodded and said, "Uncle Fu, come with me."
"Yes, miss!"
However, Qingguan is still a step late.
She had just walked into the Prince's Mansion when Zhao Jingyan was called into the palace before half a cup of tea. The news spread so quickly that she felt numb in the back of her head.
After a moment, she calmed down and said, "Take me to your master's study. I'll wait for him."
"This..." The manager of the Prince's Mansion looked at the extremely beautiful woman in front of him, feeling embarrassed in his heart.
In such an important place as the study, no one can be allowed in without the prince's approval. After all, there are many important letters inside.
It’s just that this woman in front of me…
For a moment, the manager made several mental changes, smiled, and said respectfully: "Female doctor, please come with me!"
"Wait!" A soft voice came from far away.
Yan Wu was wearing bright red clothes, her long skirt was gently and gently trailing to the ground, and she walked in a quiet and peaceful manner.
She originally heard that the prince had been summoned into the palace in a hurry, and she felt a little worried. She went to the front yard to take a look. She never expected to see a pretty woman talking to the steward from a distance, so she came over to take a look out of curiosity.
As soon as the manager saw the person, he hurriedly smiled at Doctor Gu and said, "Female Doctor, this is Concubine Yan. Concubine Yan, this is Doctor Gu."
Qingguan looked up, her heart skipping a beat, and her eyes showed disbelief.
It turned out to be her—Sheng Huan!
Isn't she dead? Why did she become the crown prince's concubine in the crown prince's residence
Yan Wu's heart also skipped a beat at the same time.
The woman in front of her has fair complexion, pale eyebrows, and elegant demeanor, just like the person walking in the painting.
"What business does the female doctor have with the prince?"
Qingwan hesitated for a moment and said, "There are some important things."
"What a coincidence. The prince is not in the palace. Please come back, female doctor." Yan Wu narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him proudly.
It is said that this female doctor Gu is arrogant and cold, but now it seems that she is nothing more than that, and she is so eager to get close to the prince. It can be seen that no matter how cold-blooded a woman is, she still cares about power and wealth.
Gu Qingguan said without being humble or arrogant: "There are some important matters that need to be discussed when the prince returns."
Yan Wan frowned slightly and said in a cold tone, "The prince has entered the palace and will return to the palace at an unknown time. The female doctor will certainly have to wait."
"To wait for!"
Yan Wan was unhappy and said coldly: "Manager, take the person to the outer hall and wait."
The manager was in a dilemma.
The outer hall is where ordinary guests wait. Others don't know the identity of the female doctor, but he knows it more or less. If the prince comes back from the palace, if he knows about it... he will be furious.
"Concubine Yan, the female doctor is a female doctor, and the outer hall is full of men. For fear of any inconvenience, I will take her into the prince's study and wait."
"presumptuous!"
Yan Wan was furious, "The study is a big place, if something important is missing, can you afford it?"
"this… "
Qingguan was startled, then a thin smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Uncle Fu, it seems that we are meddling in our own business. In that case, let's go back."
"Miss?" Qian Fu was a little unsure.
Qingguan sneered and said: "We shouldn't be anxious about this matter. Since the prince has so many capable people around him, there is a way to solve it. Let's go!"
After saying that, he walked away, Qian Fu took a deep look at Concubine Yan, and then left.
The manager thought it was not good, but he couldn't say anything to stop him, so he could only follow him out.
Yan Wu looked at the manager's humble look, with suspicion in his eyes, and said to the maid behind him: "What does Doctor Gu mean by this?"
"This slave doesn't know."
Yan Wan's intuition was a little bad. She looked at the backs of the three people and thought for a long time, then said: "Go and find out why the prince came to the palace?"
"Yes, Concubine Yan!"
After a while, the maid left and came back, "Concubine, I have heard about it."
"Say it!"
"The reason was the 70th birthday of the ancestor of the Jiang family. Princess Huayang took out a painting that the prince painted for Dr. Gu. There was a sentence on it."
"What word?"
"The crowd looked for him thousands of times, but suddenly I looked back and found that man in a dimly lit place!"
Yan Wu was shocked and bit her thin lips tightly.
Qingguan got on the bus and immediately closed his eyes to rest, with no trace of happiness or anger on his face.
Qian Fu had countless doubts in his heart, but he didn't know how to speak. He could only look at the young lady over and over again.
"What do you want to ask, Uncle Fu?"
Seeing that her eyes were not open, Qian Fu couldn't help laughing and said: "Miss, you are really a roundworm in this old slave's stomach."
Qingguan opened her beautiful eyes, and the light was flowing, "I can still figure out what Uncle Fu wants to ask, it must be the concubine."
Qian Fu nodded vigorously, "If the old slave hasn't lost his sight yet, this concubine should be the adopted daughter of Lu, the third wife of Sheng Mansion, who used to always follow the young lady."
"Uncle Fu has good eyesight." Qingguan looked faintly, "But why she survived and entered the prince's house again, I have no idea."
"Miss, if you turn around and ask the prince, you will know everything."
Qingwan only smiled faintly, said nothing, and slowly closed her eyes.
When the carriage arrived at the entrance of the alley, they saw Yueniang looking forward to it. When she stopped and asked, she found out that Gu Qingzhi and his wife were waiting in the house.
Qingguan smiled bitterly. The second sister is the goddaughter of the third wife. Today is the ancestor's birthday, so she will definitely go there, so she can get the news so quickly.
Entering the flower hall, Gu Qingzhi came up to her, took Qingguan's hand, and said hurriedly: "Sixth sister, is the matter between you and the prince true?"
Qingguan looked through her at the man behind her and smiled: "What is true and what is false?"
"this… "
When Gu Qingzhi was asked, she saw the smile on Liu Mei's face and asked suspiciously: "Could it be that the painting is fake? I knew Zhao Huayang didn't have any good intentions."
"The painting is real."
"What?"
Gu Qingzhi was shocked, so speaking of Sixth Sister and the Prince...
Qingguan nodded and said: "The prince and I are also true."
Gu Qingzhi's head buzzed, and her figure was on the verge of collapse.
Qingguan smiled and didn't know how to comfort her.
Gu Qingzhi slapped her on the body and said angrily: "Thank you for being able to laugh."
"Is it possible to cry?" Qingguan retorted, "Second sister, I don't cause trouble, and I'm not afraid when trouble comes."
"But you and the Jiang family, and Master Qi..."
Qingguan said softly: "My ancestors have known it for a long time."
"What?"
At this time, Gu Qingzhi was completely confused. What was going on? She couldn't quite understand.
A hand fell on her shoulder. Liang Xi patted her shoulder and said, "I'm just going to talk about Sixth Sister. You don't need to worry about it."
Gu Qingzhi stared blankly at her man, still looking confused.
Liang Xi cast her eyes on Qingguan and thought for a moment, "If there's anything difficult, just send someone over and let me know. Although your second sister and I can't be of much help, we are still a family."
Qingguan smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
In fact, I don’t know how to put it. Things have come here step by step. It doesn’t make any sense to go back further.
Now she is more worried about what will happen if Zhao Jingyan enters the palace this time
Zhao Jingyan was kneeling in the hall at this moment, with a bit of uneasiness on her brows.
Just after the court ended in the morning, he was called into the palace again without even taking off his court clothes. He was called into the palace in such a hurry. What was going on
Emperor Baoqing glanced at him, his expression becoming increasingly ugly, "Eunuch Li, tell him everything."
Eunuch Li coughed lightly and then told the whole story about the painting.
After Zhao Jingyan heard this, the sharp light in his eyes suddenly turned cold, but he did not explain in words. He just lowered his eyes to hide his anger.
Eunuch Li sighed inwardly and did not dare to say more. The hall was silent for a while.
"Your Majesty, the noble concubine wishes to see you."
Zhao Jingyan sneered in her heart. When something happened on his end, Concubine Yin got the news on the other end. It was reported so quickly!
Emperor Baoqing naturally understood what Zhao Jingyan could think of.
He raised his hand and sneered: "Concubine, please go back first, I have something to do here."
The little eunuch raised his head in embarrassment, "The empress said that she cannot kneel down without seeing the emperor."
"Then let her kneel down!"
The little eunuch looked at the furious emperor and was so frightened that his legs became weak. He shrank and retreated.
Emperor Baoqing said sternly: "Prince, do you have anything to say about this matter?"
Zhao Jingyan sneered, "Father, I only have one thing to say."
"I'll let you say it."
"This painting was made for her on a cruise ship during the Lantern Festival, as a reflection of her. Because it cannot be shown to others, it was hidden deep in the study of Qingfu. Why did it fall into the hands of Zhao Huayang?" Zhao Jingyan hit the nail on the head.
He answered so simply that Emperor Baoqing was stunned for a moment, and then he said in a voice: "Is this what I'm asking?"
Zhao Jingyan smiled mischievously, "What the father is asking is..."
"You bastard, pretending to be confused while pretending to understand, how do you plan to end this matter?" Emperor Baoqing raised eyebrows.
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to curse loudly means that his father's heart is still with him.
His shoulders shook, pretending to be scared, "Father, I don't know how it will end. I just feel that if I can't leave something behind before the wedding, I will have regrets in this life. But I never thought... please save me, Father!" "
idiot!
Emperor Baoqing looked on with cold eyes and cursed heavily in his heart, "You are a prince. Compared with the love of the country and the country, which one is more important?"
Zhao Jingyan said from the bottom of her heart: "The country and the country are the most important thing. Father, I know my fault. It is just a word of love, it is difficult to control myself. I am a human being first, and a king secondly. I am a human being, and I am a king." In the coming months, please allow me, my father, to allow my son to slowly learn how to be a king."
When Emperor Baoqing heard this, he felt sad thinking about the feeling of not being able to live in high places for decades. How could he not know that it was difficult to restrain himself? As a prince, how could he do whatever he wanted? "You are now the prince, and everything you say and do is under the eyes of others. You need to think twice before doing anything. I am old and can't block much wind and rain for you. God does not leave much time for you to transform from a human to a king. "
