When Bai Hao left the palace, he was indeed questioned.
She smiled and said, "Concubine Wei is suffering from a headache. Something has happened to the county boss in the past few days. The empress wants to see Mrs. Ping Guohou and let her enter the palace tomorrow."
"Wouldn't it be the same if we go out tomorrow?" The guard stopped her with a suspicious look in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have something to do tomorrow. Besides, Mrs. Ping Guohou has been feeling unwell these past few days. Is she okay? I will go out to deliver the post first and check the situation first."
Bai Hao explained with a smile and gave the guard a piece of silver in his hand.
The guard thought about it and let Bai Haqi go out without receiving any orders from his superiors.
All the way to Ping Guo Hou's Mansion, although Bai Hao couldn't clearly feel that someone was following him, what the empress said was definitely correct.
After getting off the car, she quickened her pace until she reached Wen Qingzhu's yard.
Wen Qingzhu didn't fall asleep either, he was still thinking about Xie Feichen.
Lu Tao led Bai Hao and knocked on the door: "Madam, sister Bai Hao is here!"
"Come in!" Wen Qingzhu stood up immediately. Bai Hao must have something important to do if he ventured out of the palace at this time.
After a quarter of an hour, there was silence in the room.
Bai Hao glanced outside and said, "I've brought you what you want, Madam. As for Madam's decision, Madam depends on your arrangements."
Wen Qingzhu stood up and said, "Ask Yang Liu to secretly send a few people to escort Sister Bai Hao back to the palace."
Half an hour later, Yang Liu came back.
"Madam, as you expected, someone is secretly trying to kill Miss Bai Hao!"
Wen Qingzhu was walking around the house. If Jiang Yue decided like this, he must have his purpose.
There is no doubt that Jiang Yue dislikes Jiang Yuancheng very much, but at this juncture, is he going to marry Liang Pingshu to Jiang Yuancheng
"Yang Liu, you send someone to deliver news to the Liang family and the Lu family. Remember to stay hidden."
"I obey my orders!"
Early the next morning, the imperial edict from the palace came out as scheduled.
What Wen Qingzhu didn't expect was that in addition to marrying Jiang Yuancheng and Liang Pingshu, there was also an imperial edict.
"You said that the emperor summoned Prince Runan to the capital?" Wen Qingzhu looked at the green pottery in front of him and felt that this incident was a bit unexpected.
Why would the emperor issue the imperial edict granting marriage and the imperial edict calling Prince Runan to Beijing at this time
This incident indeed caused quite a stir.
When the ministers went to court, they directly asked for orders to see the emperor.
But obviously, the emperor issued an imperial edict and did not summon the ministers, so naturally he did not want to see them.
This signal is obvious, the emperor is no longer worried about King Runan.
Although Prince Ning guessed that the emperor would eventually issue an imperial edict to grant a marriage, the matter of summoning Prince Runan to the capital was far more influential than the granting of a marriage.
When Jiang Yuancheng looked at King Ning, King Ning happened to also look over.
Both of them saw fear and confusion in each other's eyes.
The candidate for the crown prince has not yet been decided, and Prince Runan has to be summoned to the capital, which will only make the situation more complicated.
King Ning suspected that King Chu and King Runan were colluding.
But the King of Chu suspected that King Ning must have done something to make the emperor doubt King Runan.
The two people became cautious at the same time.
After going to court, Pei Yu begged for mercy to meet the emperor, but was rejected.
Fu Lie didn't know much, but the music felt like there might not be peace in Cangzhou either.
When he was about to go back directly, he met Wen Qingzhu entering the palace at the gate.
"Qingqing, why are you here?" Fu Lie walked over.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and said, "Concubine Wei is feeling unwell and wants to see me."
"I'll go with you." Fu Lie was worried. There were many dangers in the palace now.
Wen Qingzhu pushed his hand away: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After saying goodbye to Fu Lie, Wen Qingzhu took Lu Tao and got on the sedan chair sent by Concubine Wei.
Lu Tao followed the sedan chair, feeling a little confused: "Did Madam deliberately send the Marquis away?"
"Why do you think so?" Wen Qingzhu smiled. It was not that she wanted to get rid of Fu Lie, but at this time, Fu Lie's situation was much more dangerous than hers.
Once something strange happens in Cangzhou, Fu Lie, who holds military power, will most likely be sent there.
"It's nothing." Lu Tao felt more relieved when he saw that Wen Qingzhu's mood was not strange.
When they arrived at Jingping Palace, Concubine Wei sent everyone away.
"Now that the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, if King Chu and Heping Shu's marriage is settled, we can only have a temporary balance."
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Has your Majesty noticed how the Emperor feels about Yuan Han?"
Concubine Wei pondered for a moment: "It doesn't feel big. I think the emperor still values Prince Ning the most."
"Prince Ning?" Wen Qingzhu thought of Jiang Yijia. Even without Wanbi and Prince Chu, Prince Ning was destined to not have everything smooth sailing.
Thinking of Jiang Yijia, Wen Qingzhu suddenly asked: "Does your Majesty know the reason why Princess Tianyijia was attacked yesterday?"
"Do you suspect that the people who attacked Yi Jia are also the same people who attacked Ping Shu?" Concubine Wei directly saw her purpose.
Wen Qingzhu rubbed the tea cup in his hand: "This is just a suspicion. I have another suspicion."
"Do you doubt Prince Ning?" Concubine Wei understood what she meant.
"Well, if it was Concubine Wan who did it, it might just be to hide her motives, but if it was Prince Ning who did it, then this matter would be very interesting."
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Wei.
At the same time, King Ning was on his way to the Zhuoce Hall.
The eunuch who led the way chose an off-the-beaten path. King Ning was eager to investigate King Runan's affairs, so he didn't pay much attention.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Prince Ning looked up and suddenly found that the eunuch leading the way was missing.
At this moment, King Ning felt someone coming from behind.
When the person behind him was about to take action, King Ning drew his sword and stabbed him. The person immediately stopped with his hands raised.
"Empress Luo Fei?" Prince Ning's ears twitched and he found that there was no one else around.
A shallow wound was opened on Luo Chan's face, and blood flowed out from it.
She stood motionless, looking down at Prince Ning's sword and said, "Your Highness, Prince Ning, if you have something to say, please tell me. I am just a weak woman with no strength, so I don't need to make you so nervous, right?"
Prince Ning withdrew his hand and looked at her steadily: "Do you want to see me?"
Luo Chan took out a handkerchief and wiped her face. When she saw the blood, she laughed to herself: "Originally I wanted to tell you about King Runan, but His Highness doesn't believe me so much, so I'll leave first!"
Without waiting for Prince Ning to reply, Luo Chan turned around and left.
But the next second, her hand was grabbed by Prince Ning: "Stop!"
A glint flashed in Luo Chan's eyes, and then she looked down at Prince Ning's hand: "Your Highness and I are so close, aren't you afraid that Concubine Li will misunderstand?"
Before he finished speaking, Prince Ning immediately let go of his hand: "What do you want?"
Luo Chan turned around and looked at him with a bitter smile: "Does Prince Ning really not know what I want?"
Prince Ning frowned and said nothing.
Seeing him like this, Luo Chan stopped beating around the bush: "I am just a beloved concubine with no foundation. Now that I have fallen out of favor, I am just an abandoned concubine. All I want is to regain the emperor's favor."
"That's it?" Prince Ning didn't believe that Luo Chan had no other purpose.
Luo Chan took out a record book: "I got this book from the Shenxing Division. The Hall of Records will not have it. I think Prince Ning will be interested!"
"You can actually persuade Hei Jiren?" Prince Ning found it incredible.
But Luo Chan turned around and said, "Your Highness doesn't need to ask more about this matter. His situation is no better than mine! As long as Prince Ning agrees to help me regain my favor, the book you want is all there."
She raised the booklet in her hand and turned her eyes slightly, her eyes twinkling.
Prince Ning narrowed his eyes and was silent for a long time, and finally agreed: "I promise you!"
"Thank you so much, Prince Ning." Luo Chan stepped forward respectfully, placing the book on the ground. She was slightly blessed, just revealing the white patch of snow under her collarbone.
Prince Ning stood motionless, but his eyes darkened.
That afternoon, when Wen Qingzhu left the palace, he met Fu Shiyi who entered the palace.
She glanced at him: "Master Fu, are you going to see His Highness Prince Rui?"
"Yes." Fu Shiyi bent down and replied respectfully.
Wen Qingzhu looked at him deeply and said nothing.
But after Fu Shiyi left, Wen Qingzhu asked Bai Haqi to say a few words quietly.
Bai Hao nodded: "Madam, don't worry, I will tell you."
On this day, neither the Lu family nor the Liang family had any reaction. There was news from Yang Liu that the Liang family was very calm when they received the imperial edict.
When we arrived at the gate of Baiwei Tower, a beggar suddenly came up to us unexpectedly.
"Madam! Give me something to eat!"
"Madam, be careful!" The guards immediately surrounded Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu discovered that there was something different about the beggar. She asked Lu Tao to take out the silver and give it to the beggar.
But the beggar said: "Madam, I just want to order something to eat!"
Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment and then ordered: "Bring him in."
"Madam!" Lu Tao was very worried, but Wen Qingzhu insisted that she couldn't say anything.
After arriving at Ping Guohou's mansion, Lu Tao immediately sent someone to bring food.
The beggar said again: "I just want to return to my heart!"
"You!" Lu Tao was also stunned.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and looked at the beggar quietly: "Who wants to see me?"
"This girl is waiting for you at Baiwei Building." The beggar suddenly stood up straight, said something, turned around and left.
"Madam! Who wants to see you? Is it Mr. Xie?" Lu Tao knew that returning home was just Xie Feichen's unique secret recipe.
Who else in this world knows the existence of returning home? Wen Qingzhu can only think of one person.
"Yang Liu, go to Baiwei Building and pick up that girl. Tell her that I am inconvenient and can only trouble her to come over!"
After Wen Qingzhu finished his instructions, he immediately turned around. It seemed that Xie Feichen had sent a message back to Yaoshen Valley.
After waiting in the main courtyard for more than an hour, Yang Liu finally came in with a girl in purple riding uniform.
He has sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, thin lips pursed tightly, and a sword in his hand.
When he walked into the yard, his eyes quickly glanced around.
"Fei Shen is here!" The woman's tone was not very friendly.
Yang Liu paid special attention and asked Wen Qingzhu if he wanted to take action.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "Didn't Miss Xue receive Mr. Xie's letter?"
"What letter?" The woman frowned.
When Wen Qingzhu saw her like this, he knew that she didn't know that Xie Feichen was gone.
"Miss Xue, why don't you sit down and take a rest."
But the woman said directly: "Where is Xie Feichen? Where is he? Didn't grandpa ask him to come and treat you?"
"I told him the truth, so he left." Wen Qingzhu said it directly.
The woman was confused at first, but suddenly she came to her senses, drew out her sword angrily, pointed at Wen Qingzhu and said, "You actually told him! Why did you tell him!"
"Xue Miaomiao, you'd better calm down. If you move again, the sword on your neck will hurt you." Wen Qingzhu had to remind her.
Xue Miaomiao then looked down and realized that Yang Liu had a sword in front of her neck at some point.
Forced as a last resort, Xue Miaomiao could only put away her sword, and then Yang Liu also put away his sword.
After calming down for a moment, Xue Miaomiao looked angry: "Why do you know about Brother Feishen? Grandpa can't tell you!"
“Ms. I will also tell him in five years.”
