On the other side, when the old man returned to Tao Ranju, Chu Qingwan also received the news that Mrs. Liu would step down as the mistress of the house.
She went to the door and helped the old man in. She said apologetically: "Grandpa, I'm sorry for embarrassing you."
The old man patted her hand and said, "Only those who are in the wrong should say this. Mrs. Liu will come to visit her soon and apologize to the three children in person."
Chu Qingwan said "hmm".
If she just wanted to hear an apology, she could have made Mrs. Liu say it a hundred times that day at Baiweixuan.
But with Liu's character, she would never truly repent, so she didn't care to hear it.
However, this feeling of being protected and argued with was deep in her heart. She smiled at the old man and said sincerely: "Thank you, grandpa."
The old man laughed and said she was stupid. There was no sign of the three little ones everywhere, so he asked aloud: "Where are the children?"
Chu Qingwan said: "Sir, you have three days off. They are at the palace."
The old man raised his eyebrows: "Oh? King Qi has time to accompany them to make trouble?"
Chu Qingwan nodded: "Well, Your Majesty, because of his hard work in suppressing the bandits, specially allowed him to rest for ten days."
In fact, it doesn't matter whether it's accurate or not. Mo Jingyu always did whatever he wanted in the previous court. This statement is just to save the face of both parties.
Thinking of this, Chu Qingwan couldn't help but think of the time when Marquis Shoukang came to the palace. After meeting him, Mo Jingyu looked like a living Shura.
He is clearly happy and angry, but with such exposed emotions, it is not easy to hide his secrets.
At that time, Chu Qingwan's fear was more than distress and curiosity, so he didn't ask any more questions. Looking back at this moment, he couldn't help but want to ask more.
She leaned close to the old man and asked in a low voice: "Speaking of King Qi, grandpa, do you know why he doesn't want to return to Shoukanghou Mansion?"
The old man asked back: "Why do you ask this?"
Chu Qingwan smiled sweetly: "Just ask."
The old man teased: "Really?"
Chu Qingwan was inexplicably embarrassed and coughed lightly: "Yes, grandpa, if you don't want to say it, forget it."
The old man said: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know the inside story. I only know that it involves your Majesty and the Marquis Mansion, and it involves a lot."
Chu Qingwan thought thoughtfully: "That's it."
The old man hit her: "Wan'er, King Qi treats you very well, but there are some things that cannot be easily probed into, do you understand?"
Chu Qingwan listened to the instruction humbly: "I understand, Grandpa, don't worry."
The grandfather and grandson went inside while chatting. Chu Qingwan relaxed the old man's muscles and bones, then let him rest for a while, then got up and went to the front hall.
Wei Zhan, who was supposed to report the assassination two days ago, was waiting there. When he saw her saluting, he said: "Miss, my subordinates have confirmed that this matter was planned by Princess Roujia."
Roujia did it secretly, letting the most inconspicuous palace servants in the princess's palace bribe common people who had nothing to do with her, and used her tokens to contact Stinger.
The deposit was handed over to another person, and it was said to be watertight.
However, Wei Zhan couldn't help it, he was very careful, he peeled off the cocoons, and found out the truth bit by bit.
Chu Qingwan was not surprised.
When they were in Ruicheng, Zhou Mo reminded her that she had already guessed that it was Roujia.
However, she didn't expect that she was still treating Rou Jia's face, and temporarily handed it over to Ling Ting because she was out of town. She would still have to take over when she came back. It was about appearance, and Rou Jia would hire a killer to kill her at this time.
It seems that he hates her to the core of his being.
Investigating the reason, Mo Jingyu accounted for more than half.
Chu Qingwan felt a little wronged, but what had happened had happened, and she was not someone who could take offense. Roujia was bound to pay a price for this.
Chu Qingwan tapped her slender fingers on the table slowly and asked, "Have you found out the defense of the Princess Mansion?"
Wei Zhan said: "It won't be a problem to sneak into the princess's mansion by avoiding all the guards."
Chu Qingwan said with satisfaction: "Very good, then..."
She ordered in a low voice, and Wei Zhan listened carefully.
After a while, Wei Zhan surrendered and Chu Qingwan snorted coldly, with a sneer on his lips.
