"Prime Minister Zhou? What is he doing here?" Charlotte held the tea cup tightly, frowning in thought.
Wei Xuanyuan acted cautiously, and Xia Luoluo knew nothing about Prime Minister Zhou's identity, so she couldn't understand why he came to Zhaoshu Palace to see her.
After thinking for a while, he said to Liu Hao, the captain of the guard, "Invite him in."
"Yes." Liu Hao nodded and retreated.
Soon, Prime Minister Zhou walked into the palace carrying several gifts.
"I have met the Crown Princess." Prime Minister Zhou put the gift on the table and saluted Xia Luoluo respectfully.
"Prime Minister Zhou, you don't have to be polite, please sit down." Xia Luoluo said and sent someone to bring a stool and asked Prime Minister Zhou to sit down.
After sitting down, Zhou Qian looked at Xia Luoluo calmly.
"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, what's the purpose of Prime Minister Zhou coming to Zhaoshu Palace?" Xia Luoluo smiled at Zhou Qian. She didn't know the relationship between Prime Minister Zhou and Wei Xuanyuan, and she didn't have much hostility towards Prime Minister Zhou. After all, he had never
Never directed it at myself.
Zhou Chenxiang smiled and said: "Nothing, nothing. I just heard that the Crown Princess has recovered from her serious illness, so I stopped by to visit her."
He did come to visit, and it was on Wei Xuanyuan's order.
Wei Xuanyuan knew what happened in Yuling Palace a long time ago, but he didn't believe that Xia Luoluo was alive even if he beat her to death, and he didn't believe that the woman who had regained her appearance was the real Xia Luoluo.
Princess of the Night Shen Yuyu has an excellent skill in disguise. Who knows if this 'Charlotte' is someone pretending to be Princess of the Night?
Zhou Qian was also proficient in the art of disguise, so Wei Xuanyuan sent him to Zhaoshu Palace to identify Xia Luoluo's identity.
Naturally, Xia Luoluo didn't know all this, and wondered whether Prime Minister Zhou wanted to curry favor with her? Want to form an alliance with her? Or was Queen Zhou asking him to come?
Xia Luoluo couldn't figure it out, and she never had anything to do with his true identity and Wei Xuanyuan. After all, she always thought that Prime Minister Zhou and Wei Xuanyuan were enemies!
Prime Minister Zhou chatted with Xia Luoluo for a few words, but his eyes looked at Xia Luoluo's face carefully.
After seeing it clearly, he said a few words of concern and left.
"What does this Prime Minister Zhou want to do?" After Prime Minister Zhou left, Charlotte shook her head in confusion. Could it be that he really cared about her? I couldn't understand.
After leaving the East Palace and returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhou Qian went straight into the study, where Wei Xuanyuan sat there a little depressed.
"Master, my subordinates have carefully inspected her. There are no traces of disguise on the Crown Princess's face," Zhou Qian said.
It may be difficult to tell whether a face that is disguised is real or fake when there is no expression, but once you speak or smile, you can tell the truth from the fake. This is not difficult for a person who is good at disguise.
"Are you sure?" Wei Xuanyuan turned his questioning eyes to Zhou Qian.
"I'm sure." Worried that Wei Xuanyuan wouldn't believe it, Zhou Qian affirmed, "I dare to guarantee it with my head."
Wei Xuanyuan's expression became more solemn.
"Is it possible that someone really transferred the poison from her body?" When Wei Xuanyuan said this, Ah Qin's face appeared in front of Wei Xuanyuan's eyes. Only she knew this trick.
"It must be." Zhou Qian nodded.
"If so, then there is only one possibility." Wei Xuanyuan said, "That is that Xia Luoluo and Princess Ye have joined forces, and the only way to transfer the Gu insects is a Gu Master named A Qin who is close to Princess Ye.'
"This? This? It's impossible, right? They join forces?" Zhou Qian's face was full of surprise, "They are old enemies.'
"As long as there are common enemies, it is possible to become temporary friends." Wei Xuanyuan said meaningfully.
"That's right." Zhou Qian nodded in agreement, "Master, what should we do next?"
"Get the lost 'friend' back and continue to cooperate with her." Wei Xuanyuan tapped his thumb on the table rhythmically, and suddenly a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Zhou Qian: "?'
Is this okay? Is the master so powerful?
Seeing that Wei Xuanyuan didn't seem to be joking, Zhou Qian asked seriously, "How can we get this back? The Crown Princess must hate you."
"I'll find an opportunity to go to the palace in the next few days, and I'll know the outcome then." Wei Xuanyuan looked confident.
Zhou Qian felt a little worried, thinking that it might be difficult. Many times, when a woman recognizes you in bed, she will easily obey you. Otherwise, she might not be able to fool you.
While he was talking, a servant came in to report.
"Master Prime Minister, Master Ding is outside asking for an audience."
Prime Minister Zhou glanced at Wei Xuanyuan, and seeing his expressionless face, he said, "Let him in."
"Yes." The servant responded and went out.
"Ha~~This Ding Anhe~~" Wei Xuanyuan twitched the corner of his mouth, stood up and walked to the inner room, "He is still useful, take this opportunity to make him give up on you."
"Yes." Prime Minister Zhou replied.
As soon as Wei Xuanyuan avoided it, Ding Anhe hurriedly came in holding the corners of his robe.
"Prime Minister, please save my little girl." Ding An and Pu Tong knelt down in front of Prime Minister Zhou, "My little girl has just had a miscarriage and was thrown into prison. She will die if this continues. I beg you, Prime Minister, to say something good in front of the Queen.
Let her out.'
"Master Ding, look what you have done? Do you still have the nerve to beg me?" Prime Minister Zhou reprimanded with a straight face and turned his face aside angrily.
"It's all the official's fault." Ding Anhe knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. "The official made such a big mistake because he was confused for a moment. If the prime minister is willing to save the little girl, I will die in the sea of fire and swords."
A look of satisfaction flashed in Prime Minister Zhou's eyes, but he still did not let go.
"Ling Qianjin was scheming and plotting under the eyes of the Queen, and even aborted the royal blood in her belly. The Queen became very angry because of this."
"If I didn't know that you are a person that I value, my daughter's life will be withered? Humph."
After hearing this, Ding Anhe kowtowed heavily.
"Thank you, Prime Minister. Thank you, Prime Minister. I cannot express my gratitude to you. As long as you are willing to rescue my little girl, my life will be yours from now on.'
When Zhou Cheng saw Ding An and his forehead bleeding, he sighed deeply.
"Then I will go to the palace just for you and see if I can persuade the Queen."
After hearing this, Ding Anhe burst into tears, "Thank you, Prime Minister~~"
"Let's go, I will leave the house with you and enter the palace immediately." Zhou Qian looked anxious, also to show his respect and win people's hearts.
That afternoon, Ding Xiaolian and Hong Luan were released from death row. Although Ding Xiaolian made a mistake, he did not lie after all. Shen Qingqing was indeed a fake princess.
Therefore, Queen Zhou released them after hearing a few words of advice from Prime Minister Zhou, but the Queen confiscated the 400,000 taels of silver.
After obtaining the consent of the prince, he still stayed in the East Palace, but both the master and the servant were reduced to beauties.
After this incident passed, the East Palace finally became quiet.
In Zhaoshu Palace, Xia Luoluo was just about to fall asleep that night when he suddenly heard a familiar crackling sound coming from the top of the palace. It was the sound of Wei Xuanyuan lifting tiles.
"Humph, we're finally here." Charlotte muttered in a voice that only she could hear. A coldness appeared in her slightly narrowed eyes, and she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
