Concubine Xian came here for the third prince today, but she had been sitting in Fengqi Palace for a long time and could not get anything useful out of the queen's mouth. The queen's tone of voice was very strict, and she opened and shut her mouth because of Concubine Cheng.
Her niece warded off the disaster. From now on, she would burn three sticks of incense every day to bless the dowager empress to reunite with the late emperor.
Who wants to tell her this!
Concubine Xian is angry and has nowhere to go. Concubine Cheng is dead and she is too lazy to care. She just wants to know how to save her third prince!
She looked at An Huajin, wanting to see if she could find a breakthrough from An Huajin, so she spoke tentatively.
An Huajin looked very sad and sighed faintly, "Yesterday I dreamed of the Dowager Empress. The Dowager Empress said she didn't blame me and that it was her destiny. But in my heart, I always feel uncomfortable..." There are a lot of bala bala, and it seems that she has finally suppressed her anger, frightened her, and found someone who can talk to her.
Concubine Xian: "..."
She felt that if she stayed any longer, the aunt and nephew would be angry to death.
But for the sake of her son, she still sat there firmly and said it was useless, "Since the concubine said she doesn't blame you, don't be too sad, little princess. The concubine can ward off disasters for you. I believe the spirits in heaven will be very relieved."
Concubine Cheng was unwilling to give up and was sentenced to death, but she should be relieved that she could make a deal with her before she died to save her son, right? But it can't be called relief in any way.
An Huajin sighed again, "Auntie, I'm hungry."
Concubine Xian: "...?"
"You didn't eat even a drop of rice yesterday, and you fainted while keeping watch for the concubine at night. It's all thanks to your good health that you can't bear to suffer like this. It's also all thanks to Dr. Chen, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to get out of bed today." The queen reached out and patted the back of her hand.
, "Master Gu Qi came here this morning without breakfast. I asked him to use some of it here, but he said he couldn't eat. Now that you are hungry, I will order someone to pass on the food." p>
"Auntie, I want to eat vegetarian food, so I'd better go back home and ask the cook to cook it for me." An Huajin looked like he had no appetite for the food in the palace, "You and Concubine Xian get along well, so let Concubine Xian stay here.
Let’s eat.”
When the queen heard the words, she agreed, "Okay, okay, whatever you say you want to eat, just eat whatever you can, as long as you can eat it." After saying that, she said, "Mother He, hurry up and get someone to prepare a sedan, and take the little princess back to the An family.
Home."
"Yes!" Grandma He went immediately.
An Huajin turned around and walked towards the newspaper hall. He didn't seem to speak loudly, "Gu Qingyan, are you leaving?"
"Let's go!" Gu Qingyan pushed the chessboard, stood up, looked at her pale and weak appearance, and said with concern, "After returning home, I still have to ask Doctor Chen to take your pulse again today."
"Yeah." An Huajin nodded.
Chu Yan also stood up and said, "I will accompany you to send my cousin back."
An Huajin has no objection.
Aunt He quickly had someone carry the sedan, An Huajin got into the sedan, and the three of them left Fengqi Palace together.
Concubine Xian held a breath in her heart, and her face could not get better no matter how she tried to hide it. She could no longer sit still and stood up, "The Queen is also tired, so my sister will go back first."
"Xiao An'er asked me to keep you here for lunch, how could you leave?" The queen shook her head, "It's already noon, so just stay for lunch!"
How could Concubine Xian have anything to eat? Even though the Queen sincerely tried to persuade her to stay, Concubine Xian still left.
After Concubine Xian left, she closed the palace door. The Queen couldn't help but laugh and asked Aunt He, "Mom, have you seen it? Concubine Xian's face is so ugly. I have never seen her look any worse in all these years."
It’s even worse today.”
"I saw it." Nanny He also smiled, "The little princess is so smart. She just woke up. From your few words, I understand how you deal with Concubine Xian and talk like you. Concubine Xian listens.
I managed not to have an attack all morning, and it was very powerful."
The queen wiped the tears from her laughter and hummed, "She wants to bear it. The third prince is involved in the poisoned tea case. If she doesn't keep her tail between her legs and dares to say unreasonable things in front of me, I don't care whether the third prince is real or not."
Whether it's an injustice or a false accusation, let's step on it first."
Aunt He nodded, "Concubine Cheng has passed away, and Concubine Xian has lost a supporter. The third prince is now in trouble, so Concubine Xian naturally does not dare to show off as before."
The queen stopped laughing, "The former harem is the harem, and the harem is the former dynasty. Things can change overnight. Who would have thought that Princess Cheng would die like this. Not only did the third prince lose a lot of help, he also got involved. Even if
He is innocent, so what can I do? Even if I don't step on him, there will always be someone who will add insult to injury."
"It is said that the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue came to see His Majesty early today, but His Majesty still hasn't seen him."
"Although the Minister of the Ministry of Finance is not a vegetarian, but our Majesty has too many princes. No matter which one is taken out, the in-law family who supports him will not be weak." The queen is in a good mood today, and she is in an even better mood when she talks about this.
"Your Majesty is behind you when he has a headache! He doesn't want to make Yan'er the crown prince, so I will see who can make him look good."
"Our seventh prince has both political integrity and talent, and we are well aware of it. Your Majesty, there is no need to worry," said Aunt He.
"I am not worried. As long as Anjia is here, Yan'er will be able to rely on him. Your Majesty would like to replace Anjia with someone else, but who can take Anjia's place? Your Majesty wants to use Anjia and protect Anjia. He does not want to send the prince to the throne.
I gave the position to Yan'er, but I also want to use him to contain me and Anjia." The queen's smile turned cold, "Such a contradiction is a pain for him."
Aunt He lowered her shoulders and said, "Even if the old prince is old, the An family still has a young princess who is smart and powerful. Now that she and His Highness have reconciled, they can support each other."
The queen laughed again, "You are right."
"My dear, you are tired too. Please take a rest after lunch!" Grandma He persuaded.
"How can I rest? I can't rest until the concubine is buried." The queen sighed and lowered her voice, "Yan'er actually played chess with Mr. Gu Qi for half a day today. Did you hear what they said?
?"
Aunt He shook her head, "I didn't say anything, I just played chess. Young Master Gu Qi won two games, and His Highness Seventh Prince won one game. Halfway through the last game, the little princess woke up and wanted to go back to the An family's old house for dinner.
The chess game is over."
"I really don't understand. Yan'er has been thinking deeply since she was a child." The queen waved her hand, "That's it, let's prepare the meal!"
The soft sedan was carried to the palace gate, and An Huajin changed to a carriage.
Chu Yan and Gu Qingyan got on the carriage one after the other. When the curtain fell, they both looked at An Huajin.
An Huajin was leaning against the car wall like a boneless person. There was no outsider in sight, so there was no need to pretend. There was no trace of the sick look on his face. One leg was stretched out and the other was bent, which was very out of shape.
Chu Yan frowned, "No rules, sit up straight."
An Huajin didn't give face, "If my seventh cousin doesn't like it, don't ride in a carriage with me. Or you don't need to go to Anjia. Out of sight, out of mind."
Chu Yan frowned.
Gu Qingyan reached out and took out a box of pastries from the drawer on the side and handed it to An Huajin, "You got up so late, you must be hungry. Please give me some comfort. I have already sent people back to the old house in advance to send a message to Uncle Sun.
You can have lunch immediately after returning home."
An Huajin took it. Sure enough, there is no good or bad without comparison. My fiancé is much more likable than my cousin.
Chu Yan turned his head and looked at Gu Qingyan, "Have you been pampering her like this these past few days?"
Gu Qingyan smiled, "The little princess also spoils me a lot."
Chu Yan: "..."
An Huajin ate a piece of pastry. Looking at Chu Yan's face, his appetite was reduced by half. He simply said bluntly, "Seventh cousin, if you have anything to do with me, just tell me. If you really follow me to the An family's old house,
I’m afraid that no matter how good the food is, it won’t taste good.”
Chu Yan returned to being indifferent and expressionless, "I have nothing to do with you. I know that Concubine Xian is here, and you will definitely not stay at your mother's house for lunch. I just want to follow you to An's old house to try the skills of the chef of Jokhang Temple."
."
An Huajin: "..."
Did he say this with a serious expression on his bored face to make her angry?
She ate two more cakes in a row to feel discouraged.
"I see you eat deliciously in front of me, so you won't lose your appetite." Chu Yan said again.
An Huajin put down the cake and was about to argue when Gu Qingyan poured a glass of water and handed it to her. She took it and drank it, not wanting to talk at all.
Gu Qingyan chuckled and said to Chu Yan, "His Majesty Seventh Highness played chess with me for half a day. Do you want to know the whereabouts of Xu Cheng?"
Chu Yan straightened his face, "Seventh Young Master really knows where he is?"
Gu Qingyan nodded, "He is in my hands."
Chu Yan understood, "I said, who in the capital can take the first step to take the person, I guess it is you, it is true. When will the person be released?"
"Tomorrow." Gu Qingyan gave the time, "He has a tough mouth and he hasn't pried it open today."
Chu Yan nodded.
An Huajin interrupted, "Seventh cousin is here for Jiang Yunyi? So, you want to find Xu Cheng's whereabouts first and give Jiang Yunyi a chance to perform meritorious service? His current official position is..." She looked at Gu Qingyan, "What?
Coming?"
"Jingzhao Yin joins the army and is a sixth-rank deacon. If he has made meritorious service, he will be promoted to one level. If he has made great achievements, he will be promoted to two levels." Gu Qingyan replied, "If he has made meritorious service and achieved results quickly, he will be able to serve as Jingzhao Yin Shaoyin in the next year.
, that’s the fourth grade, very useful.”
Anhua Jin smiled and looked at Chu Yan, seizing the opportunity to take revenge, "Seventh cousin was afraid that I would know about your relationship with Jiang Yunyi three years ago, so he deliberately let me get lost in the palace. Jiang Yunyi's favor was with me a few days ago.
She is already with her sister. Now that my seventh cousin wants someone, why not think about how to bribe me first?"
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, "I'm not in your hands."
An Huajin said shamelessly, "In the hands of my fiancé, it's the same."
