"You knew I would blame you, but you still did this. Why?" As soon as An Qingran woke up, many things became clear. This was not a palace, and Lonicera didn't have much panic when she woke up.
She fainted, but she was fine and even changed her clothes. How could she believe it if she said she had nothing to do with it?
Ling Dong didn't dare to look into her eyes and just kowtowed to the ground, "Miss, I don't have the shame to see you again..."
"Lonicera, I have always treated you like a sister..." At this point, An Qingran sighed with emotion. In the last life, she was unkind to her. In this life, she treated her well with a compensatory attitude. At least she felt worthy of her.
, but why did she betray herself?
An Qingran's eyes were full of disappointment, and she sat back on the bed slumped: "Okay, tell me, where is this? Who are you working for?"
"Miss, I'm not doing anything for anyone, I'm just temporarily soft-hearted..." The more Ren Dong spoke, the weaker her voice became. She herself was tormented by guilt and going crazy, so she knelt there and sobbed in a low voice, "Miss, can you
Do you forgive me, slave?"
"Tell me about that person." An Qingran felt so hurt and angry that he would not forgive her easily. She was also worried about where she was. Dongfang Jin didn't know how worried she was after knowing that she was missing.
There are also her own parents. She had just handled the affairs of the General's Mansion, how could she withstand a bigger blow?
And why was she being 'invited' here at this moment?
She has been staying in the General's Mansion for half a month. Did something big happen?
After thinking about all the possibilities, her heart was completely confused.
If he was really taken as a hostage, then Dongfang Jin would be considered defeated no matter what.
Prince Ning and his wife could be threatened with so much food, but what if they were themselves and their children?
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath: "Aren't you going to tell me yet? Honeysuckle?"
"Miss, it's..."
"You don't even call me Princess?"
"Crown Princess... yes, it's the Dongfang Crown Prince." Liandong looked up at her, biting her lip, "I thought the Crown Prince just wanted to talk to you for a while, but now it seems that this place is so remote, it's not just about talking.
, I was too stupid and harmed the Crown Princess. This slave’s life belongs to you. If the real Crown Prince wants to harm you, I will risk my life to get the news out.”
"Dongfang Run?" An Qingran asked back. In fact, she was not surprised. The previous investigation pointed to King Shou as the biological son of the Queen Mother. Think about it, if the Queen Mother did not want Emperor Yun Qi to take away her biological son's kingdom
, then she will definitely plan with King Shou to gain power.
So, he really wants to use himself as a hostage.
"Miss, I really think that the prince only wants to talk to you. I think he is really pitiful, so..." Liao Dong explained helplessly, and she also felt that she might have made a big mistake.
An Qingran sat down, her face changed. How could Dongfang Run want to talk to her so simply?
How can it be.
Looking at her dazed look, Liao Dong felt more and more that she had done something wrong and did not even want to plead for mercy. She felt that her sin was unforgivable, so she knelt down and sat there, weeping blankly.
"Where is this?" An Qingran finally spoke, her voice still calm. If Liandong had revealed even a little bit to her before, he would not have ended up in this uncontrollable situation.
"Back to the Crown Princess, this is outside the capital city, but this slave girl doesn't know where it is. At first she thought it was in the capital city, but later she argued with those people. In the end, she was also knocked unconscious. She just saw us leaving the city before she was knocked unconscious.
It's..." Lonicera bit her lip, which was already bleeding.
An Qingran sighed: "Get up!"
Lonicera hesitated for a moment, but still knelt there. She was punishing herself. This incident stung her heart, and she was slowly bleeding.
Seeing her like this, An Qingran opened the door and went out. Two groups of maids at the door saw her coming out to pay their respects, but they didn't say anything.
"I want to see Dongfang Run." An Qingran said directly.
After saying that, she turned around and went back to the house, sitting there quietly.
Lonicera stood up, poured a glass of water and brought it to An Qingran: "Princess, you have been sleeping for a long time, do you want a drink of water?"
An Qingran did not take the glass of water. Lonicera's expression changed again and again: "Miss, I will not harm you..."
An Qingran still looked gloomy. This was not a question of whether it was harmful or not. Her stupidity had already gotten her into it. Who knows if there will be a next time.
Lonicera put the glass of water aside, took a step back, and stood there silently, staring at her toes.
Soon, footsteps sounded, and an elegant figure in white walked in, it was Dongfang Run.
An Qingran did not stand up, but just looked at him carefully. Dongfang Run looked a little haggard, but in good spirits. His beautiful eyes were bright and clear. When he saw her, his eyes became obviously gentle: "Qingran, look for you.
I?"
"Logically, you should call me Emperor's Wife or Crown Princess, right?" An Qingran smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth and her eyes were equally clear.
Hearing this, Dongfang Run's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
He didn't expect An Qingran to be so ruthless, but then he said: "How is your health? If you feel uncomfortable, I'll call the doctor."
"I want to ask a few questions, and I hope Prince Dongfang can answer them truthfully." An Qingran did not continue to call him Prince Dongfang, because she vaguely guessed something.
Dongfang Run nodded: 'You can ask.'
"You invited me here, can you tell me the truth about what happened outside?"
"I'm just trying to ensure your safety." Dongfang Run thought for a while and said in a terse tone.
"Did Young Master Dongfang raise a flag of rebellion? Otherwise, how could he dare to kidnap the Crown Princess..." An Qingran smiled bitterly and continued, "I just don't know what kind of price Young Master Dongfang offered."
Dongfang Run's face changed slightly when he heard this: "Qingran, I will never hurt you, you believe me."
Lonicera in the corner swayed when he heard this, and instantly regained his composure.
But no one knew what was going on in her heart at this moment.
An Qingran smiled: "Listening to what you said, it seems that no price has been offered yet. It's just that over the years, has Emperor Yun Qi treated you badly? Why do you want to rebel? Do you really want to be emperor so much?"
The question is too direct, the bloody reality.
Dongfang Run frowned slightly. Regarding this question, his father asked him before. He didn't want to answer. Now he didn't know how to answer. He just said quietly: "Do you really hate me so much?"
An Qingran sighed: "No, I have never hated you. It's just that I don't know you now. Dongfang Run, if you can still care about the family and friendship before, I hope you can stop it. I will tell you
The emperor begs for mercy and spares the death penalty from Prince Shou's family."
Dongfang Run looked at An Qingran's beautiful face, and his mind wandered. If he were the prince, if he got the country, then she would become his woman!
He didn't have such a strong desire before, but now that he saw her, all his longings turned into a sea that broke the dike and could no longer be controlled.
Therefore, when he faced her again, he was even more determined.
So he couldn't answer her question.
Instead, he sat elegantly on the chair next to him.
An Qingran understood this and nodded slightly: "Has the war started yet?"
"Not yet, the Queen Mother has announced the fact that King Shou is the bloodline of the late emperor, and asked Emperor Yunqi to write an edict to abdicate." Dongfang Run did not hide it from her.
An Qingran was afraid of irritating him, so she didn't ask about Dongfang Jin.
Instead, he said: "Where is my cousin? Is she okay?"
When Lou Wanyue was mentioned, Dongfang Run pondered for a moment: "Fortunately...she has given birth to Lin'er. I named my son Dongfang Xin."
"Really, that's great. Mother and son are safe, right?" An Qingran was sincerely happy, even though they were enemies from now on.
"Yes, mother and child are safe."
An Qingran thought for a while: "The child was born early? I remember that it will take another month before the baby arrives."
"Yes, because...because of the bumps, I was born prematurely, but the children are fine and strong."
"Congratulations to you, and congratulations to my cousin, for bringing my words to you." An Qingran breathed a sigh of relief. Giving birth was like going through hell, and now my cousin didn't have to worry.
Dongfang Run smiled lightly when he heard her congratulations.
An Qingran stroked her belly. She didn't believe that Dongfang Run still wanted to marry a woman with a big belly. He must be trying to gain reputation. In addition, there must be many factors involved in this. Although she didn't understand it very well, from what happened
Judging from the results, the Queen Mother is definitely not an idle person, and they have been prepared for it. She is now very worried about Dongfang Jin, and Emperor Yun Qi's health is not good. The Queen Mother has made such an edict to the world, so what happened before about Queen Yun and Dongfang Jin?
There is no escape from the poisoning incident, it must have been her doing.
I am afraid that Emperor Yun Qi would also think of this and would be very sad.
No matter what, you must be strong.
For the sake of the children.
"Then how long do you plan to lock me up?" An Qingran asked again.
"You can take care of yourself in peace, and I will send someone to protect you." Dongfang Run's answer was not what he asked.
An Qingran knew that if he didn't want to say it, there was no point in asking.
Then he took a deep breath and stood up: "Then, I would like to send you off to Young Master Dongfang."
Dongfang Run wanted to say something else, but seeing her like this, he had to stand up. He looked at Lonicera: "Lonicera, if you need anything, just ask the people outside."
Lonicera was stunned for a moment, then Nuonuo nodded: "I obey."
After saying that, he felt something was wrong. If he answered like this, wouldn't he think that he was his master?
She glanced at An Qingran furtively, feeling extremely frustrated and afraid that she would never be forgiven again.
The master must hate himself to death.
Dongfang Run didn't think so much and turned around and left.
An Qingran followed him all the way to the courtyard gate and took the opportunity to look at the terrain. The courtyard was not big, with rolling hills not far away. It was really not a city.
