"Master, this is..."
Shangguan Jinghong curled his lips and said, "Qiaochu's medicine for injuries."
Qiaochu looked at him deeply, took a deep breath, took off her veil, took the bowl from Jingqing's tray, and it was no longer hot to the touch. She endured the bitterness and drank it all in one breath before putting the bowl down. She waved her sleeve horizontally, and a crisp sound...
Qiaochu looked at the broken porcelain on the ground, and then saw Lang Linling next to Shangguan Jinghong. She pulled Shangguan Jinghong to one side and said in a low voice: "You know my body..."
Shangguan Jinghong sneered and lowered his voice, "You drank this medicine without hesitation! Qiaochu, I'm not a fool, I have feelings! The problem of your body is secondary. It's you who don't want my child, you don't even want to be with me. I used to think that you don't like me having other women, but what about now? Maybe, from the beginning to the end, it was just my wishful thinking, thinking that you saved me because you loved me, but in fact, you don't love me the most. In this case, what's the point of me being good to you? Since I have so many women, why should I waste my time and energy on you?"
After hearing this, Qiaochu felt cold all over. She closed her eyes and staggered. The beauty went to help her. She pulled the beauty over and walked out of the door quickly. The four men stomped their feet and followed her out.
"Qiaochu, if you can't give a reasonable explanation for your servant's behavior, I will not let you off easily!"
Although Lang Linling couldn't hear what the two were saying, she raised her lips slightly and walked to Shangguan Jinghong. The latter didn't stop Qiaochu anymore. He put down his words coldly and stroked her shoulder, "I'll go to the study. Please accompany me for lunch."
She smiled and bowed.
Qiaochu paused briefly in the courtyard outside the door, then finally turned around and left.
Lang Linling narrowed her eyes slightly and watched Shangguan Jinghong lead Fang Ming and others away. Xiang'er smiled and said, "That Master Qiao has also had this moment."
Lang Linling cast a calm gaze on the debris on the ground, "Xiang'er, you know, people need time to calm down and think before they know what is best for them."
As she spoke, her face was slightly pink. Well, he said, accompany him for lunch...
She thought about going back to her room to touch up her makeup. As her eyes were still on the crumbs on the floor, she remembered the coldness that flashed across Shangguan Jinghong's eyes when he was looking at the medicine bowl. Suddenly, she had an idea and stretched out her hand to beckon a maid in the hall, and ordered, "Go to the courtyard and find Miss Bishui. Tell her that I found her. If the master blames you, I'll take care of you."
The maid agreed and went there immediately.
Xiang'er was puzzled. Why did the young lady want to find Bishui? The girl went back to the palace before them. She was reprimanded and flogged by King Rui and was confined for a period of time...
Soon, Bishui came over. She looked haggard. When she saw Lang Linling, she smiled bitterly and said, "Master Lang, please help me to speak to you, or see if you can arrange a meeting with you. I will be very grateful..."
Lang Linling chuckled, "Would you like to meet me and ask for a chance to apologize in bed~?"
Bishui's face suddenly turned red, but she suddenly heard Lang Linling say: "It's not impossible. After all, the girl has been with me the longest. I am not a person who is afraid of anything. It would be better if someone..."
Bishui was startled, and gritted her teeth and said, "But what did that mistress say about me in front of you?"
Lang Linling smiled and said, "You know medicine, so first take a look at what kind of medicine is on the ground. As for the others, let me think about how to arrange them."
Bishui thanked him, bent down, reached out to dip some medicine from a large piece of porcelain on the ground, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and a strange look appeared on his face.
Lang Linling was startled, and Xiang'er asked in surprise: "How?"
The palace study.
When Lao Tie pushed the door open and walked in, he saw that Fang Ming and the others all had silence on their faces. He looked at Jing Ping, who smiled bitterly. Shangguan Jinghong suddenly said indifferently, "Except for you, is there anyone in the mansion who works specifically for me?"
"Master, you have personally trained a large number of secret guards." Lao Tie smiled and reported respectfully.
Shangguan Jinghong nodded slightly, "Send two secret guards to follow Concubine Qiao secretly. She has a maid who is very skilled in martial arts. Be careful not to reveal her whereabouts. Keep her at a distance and protect her safety. Um... Also, see where she is going."
He raised his eyebrows slightly as he spoke, "Who can tell me about Concubine Zhuang? What is her relationship with Concubine Qiao?"
Everyone was startled when they heard this. Fang Ming glanced at Lao Tie, who hesitated for a moment and was about to speak when Jing Ping smiled and asked, "Uncle Tie, what are you holding in your hand?"
Lao Tie was startled and handed the paper in his hand to Shangguan Jinghong. Shangguan Jinghong's eyes sharpened and suddenly pointed directly at Jingping, with a slight smile on his face, "Some things that should be said still need to be said."
Everyone was shocked. There was no smile in Shangguan Jinghong's eyes.
Jing Ping was slightly shocked, and then saw Shangguan Jinghong casually tear open the paper, "Well, let's talk about that later."
Lao Tie saw Shangguan Jinghong reading the letter and said hurriedly, "Sir, it's an urgent letter from Fifth Master."
"Master, what does the letter say?" Fang Ming's heart tightened.
Shangguan Jinghong stood up, clutching the letter, and said, "Come on, you guys should follow me out to have some tea and watch a play."
Everyone was suspicious, Shangguan Jinghong's eyes deepened, "Fifth brother said that tonight's meeting at the palace will be changed to noon, and the location will be changed to Xuanxiang Restaurant."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. This was strange. The relationship between Prince Ning, the Minister of Dali Temple and Prince Rui was a secret, so why did they have to hold it during the day, in such a busy place
Except for Lao Tie, everyone knew that Shangguan Jinghong seemed to be extremely unhappy about Qiaochu's matter. It was obvious that they were very good friends before, but today Shangguan Jinghong changed his mind. At this moment, he seemed to glance at him indifferently, with a hint of depth in his eyes. He smiled and said, "I want to see what Fifth Brother has to say." He had already walked out of the door. No one dared to neglect him and followed him out immediately.
Jingqing and Jingping walked at the end. Jingqing saw Jingping wanted to say something but hesitated. Jingping said calmly: "If you have anything to say to me, just say it."
Jing Qing whispered, "Brother, you just stopped talking about Uncle Tie talking about that person in the palace. Is it because you saw Master and Qiao... Master Qiao is very good, but they are not doing well now. I know that Master Qiao is actually a very good person, but don't anger Master. Brother, do you actually like..."
"Jingqing, what are you talking about!"
Before he could finish his words, Jing Ping suddenly cut him off coldly. He was shocked. The two brothers had a deep relationship, and Jing Ping rarely criticized him so harshly. He was anxious and stamped his feet. Suddenly, he heard Jing Ping lower his voice and ask, "What medicine did you give to Master Qiao just now?"
The palace hall.
Bishui raised her head and said word by word: "This is a medicine to nourish the body and calm the mind."
"What did you say?" Lang Linling was surprised, and then questioned: "But why do you look like that?"
"I thought that the medicine that Master asked me to check was some strange medicine, so I was surprised. By the way, may I ask who is this medicine for?"
Chaoge Street.
A group of four people were walking through the busy streets.
Two of them were handsome men and beautiful women, and they were dressed luxuriously. The man gently held the woman's slender waist, and they looked like a couple. These two attracted a lot of attention, but what attracted more attention was the man and woman walking beside them.
The man looked tall, thin and straight, and he was a good-looking man, but unfortunately his appearance was not good to look at. He was in his thirties, and his face was full of pockmarks and small bumps. The woman next to him was dressed as a maid, but she had a pretty face. The two of them were very close, which made people feel sorry for the wrong flowers.
"Qin Dongning, damn it, what do you mean by dressing me up like this?"
People were coming and going, and no one noticed the strangeness in the intimacy between the man and woman, let alone knew that the man was leaning over and whispering these words in the woman's ear.
The little maid was Qin Dongning, and the man was Zong Pu.
Next to them were Prince Ning and Perrin.
At the same time, several people received a letter from Shen Qingling saying that the prince received a report that the envoy from Western Xia had secretly arrived in Chaoge, and stayed at the most luxurious Xuanxiang Restaurant in Chaoge.
Speaking of the Xuanxiang Restaurant, it covers a large area and is located in the most prosperous downtown street in Chaoge. It has both the most luxurious floor-level restaurants and hundreds of gorgeous guest rooms.
The prince seemed to be interested in meeting the prince and princess of Western Xia, and was now preparing to take her to Xuanxiang.
The letter also said that she did not tell Shangguan Jinghong the news.
It was the last sentence that Zong Pu and Qin Dongning quickly and secretly arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion.
When everyone discussed it, they all felt that Shen Qingling's news was unusual.
Originally, Shen Qingling was accompanying the prince to gather information and could come back later to inform everyone of the situation. Why did she send a message to inform everyone in a hurry? She also said that she didn't inform Shangguan Jinghong.
In the end, it was Zong Pu who pointed out the crux of the problem.
Shen Qingling wanted to use them to inform Shangguan Jinghong to go to Xuanxiang Restaurant. She wanted Shangguan Jinghong to see her and the prince together. She wanted to make Shangguan Jinghong unhappy, even... jealous! She wanted to give it a try!
After hearing this, everyone was at a loss for a moment. Shangguan Jinghong undoubtedly seemed to like Qiaochu at the moment, and Qiaochu was also a good woman, but everyone had known Shen Qingling for many years and loved her very much. Last night, they saw Shen Qingling in pain and couldn't help but help her. They also thought that when Shangguan Jinghong recovered his memory, he would definitely love her the most in his heart. The one Shangguan Jinghong should be with was Shen Qingling.
In the end, Shangguan Jinghong was invited to go in the name of King Ning, but Shen Qingling's matter was concealed. I was afraid that Shangguan Jinghong might not be willing to go now that he knew it was Shen Qingling's intention.
The relationship between Shangguan Jinghong and Prince Ning cannot be known to the emperor, but after the battle in the enclosure, the prince has already suspected the two of them. Even if he sees the two of them in the restaurant together, it will only add to the suspicion and will not be a big deal.
On the contrary, Zong Pu hid behind the scenes in case of emergency. Qin Dongning, who was good at disguise, made him look like an ugly slave as a prank. The makeup was based on that of an old servant in the Ning Wang Mansion. The old servant looked similar to Lao Tie.
"Okay, you two enemies should stop quarreling." Perrin pointed ahead and said with a smile, "We're here."
Zong Pu and Qin Dongning were startled, and then they heard Prince Ning sigh and say, "In the past, the Eighth Elder hated to see Qing'er and the Crown Prince together. Although he has lost his memory now, seeing the two of them being intimate will surely arouse his emotions. I'm afraid there will be a storm."
Zong Pu smiled and said, "It's not necessarily a bad thing to have a storm. The most important thing is that Master Ba knows his own feelings."
Qin Dongning and Peilan looked at each other. Qin Dongning seemed to be about to say something but stopped herself. Peilan whispered, "Let's go in. The Crown Prince and Qing'er should be here. The Eighth Master should be here soon. I don't know why, but I feel a little nervous..."
Prince Ning smiled and took the lead to take her in.
Xuanxiang Restaurant.
As the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Chaoge, there are many guests coming and going from all over the country. Several doormen see guests off and on, with their eyes looking at each other. This restaurant has an advantage. It is a very large place with many people. Many times, people are so affectionate that they are not easily noticed. Just now, another group of guests were welcomed. At this time, several people thought that although the guests who came today were not like some of the high officials in Chaoge who were eager to show off their names, several groups of people were handsome men and beautiful women, and they had noble temperaments. I am afraid that their backgrounds are very extraordinary. I wonder who they are
As I was thinking this, I saw another young man in blue clothes coming to the door. His clothes were very ordinary, but the most surprising thing was that he had a scarf on his face.
They didn't know that this was exactly the trick used to make the four great men and the beauty get rid of their two top secret guards respectively.

252 The Prince Wants to Divorce His Concubine
Qiaochu had originally estimated that Shangguan Jinghong would definitely send someone to follow her. Considering that he had temporarily lost his memory and had forgotten what happened between King Xia and her, he would not think of King Xia from Concubine Zhuang. He would not send more people, or even the most powerful ones like Lao Tie to follow her before he dared to come out.
Otherwise, if he sent his old friend, she couldn't just get rid of him.
In fact, the beauty just felt that there seemed to be one or two people following them from behind, and she was not sure whether someone was following them. She made a definite guess, and as soon as she walked into the street, she led the two maids into the silk shop.
There are many people in the silk and satin shop, and they also sell ready-made clothes.
While Ke was pretending to try on clothes in the inner room, he gave a girl some silver, asked her to wear his dress, and combed her hair into a similar style to his. After the four beautiful ladies took the girl away for a while, she bought a set of men's clothes that looked like a scholar, put on some makeup on her eyebrows and eyes, making it slightly different from usual, and then came out.
