Tonight, all the princes are in the palace to pay homage to the Marquis of Zhenbei.
King An came back half drunk. After entering the door, he went straight to the study.
A woman in a red skirt was drawing in the study. When she saw him coming in, she stood up and said with a smile on her face, "The prince is back?"
King An closed the door, took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack. He walked over quickly and asked, "Aru, what's going on?"
The woman named A Ru had a sad look on her face and said: "Princess Wei committed suicide on the city wall, but was saved by Princess Chu, and is now placed in Jinghou Mansion."
King An sat down and frowned, "Princess Chu was saved?"
"Yes, it was a miscalculation." Ah Ru said.
King An hummed and said: "It doesn't count. At least the third child is completely useless now. He has lost the support of the Cui family, and the boss has no need to win over him."
"Yes, King Ji should give up on him." Aru said.
King An smiled coldly, "Not only will the boss give up on him, but the father will also deal with him. This is also his own fault. When he spoke for the boss, he was destined to end up like this."
Ah Ru also said regretfully: "Yes, if King Wei hadn't interceded for King Ji in front of the emperor that time about the theft of the household department, the emperor would have punished King Ji. King Wei made a sensational speech and asked the emperor to read it.
It is a matter of flesh and blood, and if I let Prince Ji go, I really missed a great opportunity."
A trace of anger flashed in King An's eyes, "That's fine now. Over at the Cui family, you can find someone to talk to, and say that the old acquaintance was brought by the boss. Also, if you silence the old acquaintance, he will be useless."
Aru Fushen, "Yes!"
After a pause, Ah Ru asked again: "But, is there any way for the prince to be sure that the Cui family will defect to our side?"
Wind blew in from the window, causing the lights to flicker. King An's face was half gloomy and half bright. He said slowly: "My father will definitely hold me accountable for this matter. I will try my best to punish you in front of my father."
Third, give a sigh of relief to the Cui family."
Aru glanced at him and said softly: "That Princess Chu... what does the prince think?"
King An raised his eyes and praised greatly, "I didn't expect that Jinghou would raise an outstanding daughter who was also proficient in medical skills. I really made a mistake at the beginning. The little thief Jinghou asked someone to come to me.
, to test whether the king can marry Yuan Qingling as his concubine. I naturally despise her, so I didn’t think about it, but I got away with it."
Ah Ru smiled, her eyes a little dim, "It's a pity that Princess Qi failed."
King An pressed down and said playfully: "Not necessarily, such a useful person can also be used by us."
Ah Ru was startled, "I'm afraid she won't betray the King of Chu. I heard that she loves the King of Chu deeply."
King An sneered, "Didn't the third child also love the Cui family deeply at the beginning? But an old acquaintance and simple illusion skills destroyed his family. Is it possible that Yuan Qingling is more patient than the third child?"
Ah Ru disapproved of using illusions anymore and said: "There is a girl beside Princess Chu who knows illusions. I'm afraid this illusion trick can no longer be used."
"There is always another way." King An said confidently.
After Yu Wenhao left the palace, he went straight to Jinghou Mansion.
When the Marquis of Zhenbei was welcomed into the palace, someone chased him and stopped the third son. He knew something was going to happen in Prince Wei's palace.
If something happened in Prince Wei's Mansion, his mother-in-law would definitely not stand by and watch, so he had to first see if she was resting peacefully in Jinghou Mansion.
When I entered Jinghou Mansion, I saw a lot of people inside, including people from the Cui family.
When Xu saw him coming back, he quickly stepped forward and told him everything that happened today.
Yu Wenhao's whole body's feathers stood up when he heard this, "Old Yuan went up the city wall? Oh my god!"
He didn't care about the Cui family and ran in quickly.
Yuan Qingling has been resting in bed. Today, in addition to being exhausted of energy, her liver and gallbladder were separated from fear, and her soul was gone.
Now when she recalled the moment when Princess Wei jumped, she was still frightened.
She had been thinking wildly in bed for a long time, and she couldn't calm down.
Hearing Yu Wenhao's footsteps, she quickly rubbed her face with her hands, tried hard to squeeze out a gentle and peaceful smile, and looked at the door energetically.
After Yu Wenhao came in, he walked in quickly, inspected the expression on her face, and then said: "Don't pretend, you can't even lift your eyelids."
Yuan Qingling's face fell and she sighed softly, "Have you eaten?"
"I'm so exhausted. Is the third sister-in-law in the house?" Yu Wenhao sat down and stretched out two fingers to massage her eyes.
"Well, in the mansion, the Cui family wants to take her away, but it is not recommended now." Yuan Qingling said.
Yu Wenhao asked: "Is the situation serious?"
"Serious, but not the most serious." She took off his hand and looked at him, "Have you met the Marquis of Zhenbei? Have you met Miss Hu?"
Yu Wenhao said: "Miss Hu did not enter the palace. Marquis Zhenbei took Mr. Hu there. We met, but we didn't even make any eye contact."
"Maybe people look down on you." Yuan Qingling consoled her.
Yu Wenhao looked dejected, "Then there's nothing we can do. He's already as handsome as me, but he still doesn't like me. What can I do?"
Yuan Qingling gently slapped him in the face, "Don't be too proud. Be careful, people are paying attention to you behind your back. Your father intends to marry his daughter to you as a concubine. He must know it. How could he not pay attention to it?"
Take a closer look?"
Yu Wenhao smiled and said: "If he observes, he will definitely know that this king has a wife who is as fierce as a tiger. Isn't he afraid that his daughter will be wronged when he marries her? This Zhenbei Hou loves his daughter very much."
Yuan Qingling laughed angrily.
Yu Wenhao looked at her and said, "Let's change the topic. Did you go to the tower today?"
"Up."
"presumptuous!"
"Understand the words "human life is at stake".
"Learn about the word danger."
The two of them stopped talking at the same time, and their words were not converging.
"I'll go out and talk to Master Cui first." Yu Wenhao said. When he came in, he saw him sitting in the main hall with a gloomy and lonely expression. He was thinking about Yuan Qingling, so he didn't go over to say hello and came back first.
See if she is safe.
"Go, I'm going to see Princess Wei." Yuan Qingling stood up. She was just taking a rest and hadn't really fallen asleep yet.
Yu Wenhao wanted to stop him, but he gave up because the woman wouldn't listen.
The two went out and went their separate ways.
Princess Wei had woken up and was accompanied by her family. When she saw Yuan Qing Ling coming in, the old lady of the Cui family, Princess Wei's mother and other female relatives quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
Yuan Qing Ling said: "Don't be so polite here."
She asked everyone to sit down, then walked over and sat beside the bed. She came in with a stethoscope, so after sitting down, she listened to the heart and lungs first.
After making sure there weren't too many questions, he asked softly: "Does it hurt?"
Princess Wei looked at her with a pale smile on her lips, "It doesn't hurt, thank you, I'm fine."
"Don't say thank you." Yuan Qingling twitched the corner of her mouth, feeling slightly sad. She probably didn't dare to show even the slightest vulnerability in front of her family.
She could only keep decorating her face with smiles and peace.
