Chapter 966 is cold-blooded enough

Only then did Princess Yongning realize that she was too eager and a little out of sorts.

But it was impossible for her to go to Qin Zhao to ask the truth, so she could only continue to make insinuations.

"Then what did Qin Zhao say about the Queen Mother?" Princess Yongning asked again.

When Wu Xirou saw Princess Yongning asking about Queen Mother Guo again, her doubts deepened.

Princess Yongning asked about Queen Mother Guo more than once, and Qin Zhao also mentioned Queen Mother Guo from time to time. Are they both here for Queen Mother Guo?

Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't show it on her face and said calmly: "They are all trivial things. I don't care about them, so I can't remember them."

Princess Yongning was a little disappointed when she couldn't find anything out from her inquiry.

She sat for a while longer before getting up and saying goodbye.

After the eldest princess Yongning walked away, Liuli stepped forward and said, "I thought your highness the eldest princess came here for the Queen Mother."

"Why are you so sure?" Wu Xirou was puzzled.

"After the death of Concubine Rong, the news spread in the harem that Concubine Rong was the real murderer of the Queen Mother. But the slave girl felt that the matter was not that simple. People closely related to Concubine Rong also included Yongning.

Your Highness, Princess Yongning. Don’t forget that Your Highness Princess Rong’s biological mother was once a close attendant of Princess Rong. Later, she died when she gave birth to Princess Yongning. However, after all, Princess Yongning and Princess Rong had a close relationship.

I can’t take a personal leave.” Liuli boldly stated all her guesses.

Wu Xirou is such a shrewd woman. She understood the implication of Liuli's words in an instant: "You mean Princess Yongning is probably an accomplice in poisoning the Queen Mother?"

"I thought that I was at least an insider. I think it was because I was afraid of what the Imperial Concubine would say to Concubine Wu, so Her Royal Highness made the trip today." The more Liuli spoke, the closer she felt to the truth.

Wu Xirou thinks it makes sense, but it may not be the whole truth: "I think the matter is not that simple. Sister Qin is also involved this time. I think there should be a follow-up, so we might as well wait and see what happens."

She definitely doesn't want to get involved in these grievances in the harem, otherwise it will be difficult to escape. She might as well just watch the situation and just be a spectator.

Liuli also knew what her master was thinking, but she didn't elaborate further.

Since the master doesn't want to fight, it's better not to fight. She will obey the empress's arrangements.

After finally having the opportunity to return to serve her mother-in-law, she certainly hoped that she could make her master completely at ease.

Xiao Linzi quickly received the news from Zhongcui Palace and reported the matter to Qin Zhao.

"This eldest princess is not as stable as she seems." Qin Zhao shook his head after hearing this.

The eldest princess Yongning ran to Wu Xirou rashly. For a person like Wu Xirou, if the eldest princess Yongning revealed some information during the conversation, Wu Xirou would be able to catch the important point.

She could think of the connection between Princess Yongning and Princess Rong, how could Wu Xirou not think of it?

If Wu Xirou thought of it, would she remind Mrs. Wu?

The more Qin Zhao thought about it, the more she felt that this incident had a chain reaction. From the moment she stepped into Changkang Palace, Princess Yongning was nervous. Princess Yongning would think of Princess Wu. Princess Wu was originally planning to attack Queen Mother Guo.

Come on, maybe Wu Xirou will ask Mrs. Wu to stop this plan.

So she may have saved Queen Mother Guo's life unknowingly.

Thinking of this possibility, Qin Zhao was dumbfounded for a moment.

She was obviously Empress Dowager Guo's enemy, but in the end she became Empress Dowager Guo's lucky star. Empress Dowager Guo should be grateful to her.

"What are you laughing at?" Bao Zhu was curious when she saw Qin Zhao laughing alone.

Qin Zhao gave her a fake smile, "I just feel that things in the world are unpredictable. No one knows where the plot will go until you get to the end."

Bao Zhu only said that she was sighing, but didn't say anything.

In fact, just as Qin Zhao expected, Wu Xirou thought about it and felt that this matter should not be underestimated.

She decided to go to Changkang Palace the next day and ask Mrs. Wu what was going on.

Because she was worried, Wu Xirou didn't sleep well that night. Early the next morning, she went to Changkang Palace.

Concubine Wu did not expect Wu Xirou to come so often. As soon as she saw Wu Xirou, she said harshly: "You must put the overall situation first, and don't come to Changkang Palace if you have nothing to do."

Wu Xirou thought so before, but this time she made this trip specifically for the sake of the overall situation.

"There is something I wanted to ask Auntie Dowager today, so I came here to ask." Wu Xirou didn't waste any time and directly stated her purpose.

When Mrs. Wu saw Wu Xirou's serious expression, she knew it was not a trivial matter.

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly," Mrs. Wu said seriously.

Wu Xirou said softly: "Yesterday, Princess Yongning came to see me and asked about Sister Qin. Later, she asked about the Queen Mother from time to time. I always felt uneasy, so I wanted to come over and ask what was going on. Princess Yongning

I usually stay at home, but when I heard that Sister Qin had come to Changkang Palace, I came over to inquire about the news. This must be unusual..."

Wu Xirou said something else, but Mrs. Wu didn't even hear it.

Yes, why did she forget the character of Princess Yongning? This person has a close relationship with Concubine Rong.

Concubine Rong must have many secrets, but Princess Yongning is usually close to Concubine Rong. Some of Concubine Rong's secrets are likely to be told to Princess Yongning, so Princess Yongning will know some secrets of the previous dynasty.

It makes sense.

Could it be that the person who delivered the news to her behind the scenes was Princess Yongning?

Princess Yongning wants to use her hand to get rid of Queen Mother Guo?

Thinking of this possibility, she broke into a cold sweat.

"I think that no matter what happens, Auntie Dowager is no longer suitable to be too active in this harem. Even for me and the entire Wu family, Auntie Dowager should put the overall situation first." Wu Xirou saw that Dowager Wu's expression changed again.

Change, and I feel more and more that my idea is right.

Concubine Wu looked at Wu Xirou's calm face. After the new emperor ascended the throne, she seemed to be invisible in this harem, wasn't it just to not affect Wu Xirou?

But Wu Xirou Yun Danfengqing's few words negated all her achievements.

"The Ai family did receive a secret letter. It said that it was Mrs. Guo who gave me a body-destroying medicine, which resulted in the Ai family being lonely all their lives. Is it wrong for the Ai family to want revenge?" Concubine Wu looked at her coldly.

Wu Xirou asked.

Wu Xirou's expression showed no emotion. At this moment, she felt that Wu Xirou was indeed a woman from the Wu family, because she was cold-blooded, and such a person could achieve great things.

"It's true that you want to take revenge, but Aunt Taifei is not alone. If Aunt Taifei succeeds, the entire Wu family will be implicated, and the nine tribes may also be killed. Has Aunt Taifei ever thought about the seriousness of this matter?" Wu Xirou asked.

Every word is authentic.

She was just glad that she was here, otherwise Mrs. Wu really wanted to attack Queen Mother Guo, how could she have the face to face Xiao Ce in the future?
