The next day, the sky was bright and the capital was bustling. The north gate of the city was almost blocked by the people.
Citizen A poked Citizen B aside with his elbow with great interest, and said curiously: "Hey! Have you heard? The eldest sister of the Su family actually grows vegetables in winter!"
Citizen B waved his hands indifferently and said: "I thought it was something. Although the winter is relatively cold, it can still be grown. These wealthy ladies are just doing it for fun."
Citizen A added: "Don't believe it, she doesn't only grow winter vegetables. I heard from people that she also grows spring vegetables."
Citizen B shook his head and did not believe what Citizen A said. He has been farming for decades and has not been able to grow anything. What can a wealthy lady who has never touched the spring water be able to grow? It is just a boast.
That’s all.
"Miss, look at the big and good vegetables grown in this greenhouse. We're afraid we're going to have another crop now, hahaha!" Lian'er looked at the big boxes of fresh vegetables and almost laughed out of her eyes.
"You, you, I think you are obsessed with money. As the saying goes, wealth should not be exposed. You said it so loudly, as if you were afraid that others wouldn't know that we were going to get rich." Su Qing looked at Lian'er angrily.
But he was worried in his heart. The more powerful the Su family became and the more money they made, the easier it would be for them to become a thorn in the side of others.
But so what! She had Emperor Yihong's support behind her, and they were jealous and had their own ideas, so they could only watch her swallow this piece of fat.
"Ah -" A woman wearing coarse clothes bumped into Su Qing. Su Qing had practiced martial arts to the point where nothing happened, but the woman fell straight to the ground.
Lian'er supported Su Qing, pushed the woman away, and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? The land is so big, you can't walk to the side!"
The woman looked a little panicked, apologized hastily, and ran away.
"What's going on with this person? Miss, are you okay?" Su Qing looked at Lian'er's concerned eyes and shook her head.
"Let's go back!" Su Qing glanced at the guards who were busy. These were the guards of the Su Mansion. Anyway, there were so many secret guards in the Su Mansion, and these few guards were not missing. She simply let them go.
They came to the north of the city to help.
Besides, there's no need for her help here, and there's no point in staying here.
Su Qing sat on the carriage and looked at the small note in her hand. It was given to her by the woman who just hit her.
Slowly opening the note, it said that we have something to discuss at Tingfeng Tower tonight.
Su Qing put the note away and closed his eyes to fall asleep. It seemed that things were about to change in Pingnan Palace soon.
Chang's every move was monitored by her people, so how could she not know about her little moves? Even the fact that Chang sent her the news was part of her plan.
…
Tingfeng Tower
Su Qingjing sat in the private room, reading the storybook. Tingfeng Building was Bailiyu's property, and the people in the building recognized her. Naturally, the private room with the best sound insulation effect in the building was arranged for her.
Zishi arrived soon, but Mrs. Chang didn't come.
Just as Su Qing was about to get up, a person who looked like an old woman walked in.
"Miss Su, why are you leaving now when you have just arrived?" The old woman took off her human skin mask, revealing an exquisite face. This person was none other than Mr. Chang.
Although Chang is a bit older, she has taken good care of herself. She still looks charming and even has a mature beauty.
"The time has come and no one has arrived, so it's time to go home and sleep." Su Qing shook her shoulders.
"You are such an interesting person, let's talk!" Mrs. Chang sat down, minding her own business, "Miss Su must also know about my current situation."
"It's okay if you want me to help you. What can you give me in exchange?" Su Qing poured a cup of tea for Chang out of habit.
"Is the entire Pingnan Prince's Mansion and the Chang family enough?"
"Your sincerity." Su Qing handed over a bottle of medicine. This medicine was specially made by her. Its toxicity occurs slowly and will cause complete loss of consciousness. She has an antidote in her hand. As long as you take the medicine on time, the poison will be gone.
It won't happen.
"Help me find my daughter, Liu Yao, who will live or die or see her corpse."
"No problem!" Su Qing agreed wholeheartedly. Liu Yao had been missing for so long anyway, so she would definitely not be alive and would not be a threat to her.
Chang took the medicine without hesitation.
"On the fifteenth day of every month, I will send someone to deliver medicine to you. My spies in the palace will find opportunities to contact you. If you have any news, you can tell me through them."
"And this medicine is colorless and odorless. You will be poisoned just by smelling it. Over time, you will go crazy and die violently. You know what to do." Su Qing handed the nightmare poison to Chang.
To deal with King Pingnan.
This nightmare was extracted from her own blood. The reason she gave Bailiyu a blood transfusion before was because there were poisonous insects in their bodies, so Bailiyu would not be poisoned.
But King Pingnan is different. He has nothing. Unless he gets the antidote, he will definitely die.
Mrs. Chang didn't say anything, took the medicine and left.
Su Qing returned to Su Mansion and immediately dispatched a group of secret guards to find Liu Yao.
"Is the matter done?" Murong Fu lay leisurely on the recliner. When he saw Su Qing coming back, he glanced at her lazily.
"What do you want from me?" Su Qing glanced at him and hid in her boudoir in the middle of the night. Did he want to scare her to death and inherit her inheritance?
"Can't I come to you if nothing happens?"
"It's okay, just go out, I'm going to bed." Su Qing tried to drive him away.
"No! The person who assassinated Baili Yu last time was Pu Jing, the eldest son of the second wife of the Pu family in Yan State. He also had an agate bracelet in his hand. Do you want to know who the person who poisoned you is?
"..." Su Qing said nothing. She was really tired now and was not in the mood to play guessing games with Murong Fu.
"Ying Ning gave you the poison." Murong Fu looked at Su Qing's calm face and felt a little disappointed, "You should pretend to be a little surprised. I spent a lot of effort to find out this."
"Wow! You are so powerful!" Su Qing said expressionlessly. In fact, Ying Ning poisoned her just because she wanted a happy city, but it was a pity that she did not die.
"One last thing, Baili Shou is not the biological son of Emperor Yihong." After Murong Fu finished speaking, he left, leaving Su Qing alone in surprise.
But she soon figured it out, and she couldn't help but sympathize with Emperor Yihong, because the son he had raised with so much difficulty was actually someone else's seed.
Tsk tsk, no wonder something happened to Emperor Yihong, but Concubine Xia acted like a normal person. It turned out that she was in another relationship.
But Su Qing doesn't have time to think about those unnecessary things now. For her now, it's extremely frustrating because she is really sleepy now.
At this time, a woman appeared in Murong Fu's room, this person was Mei Qi.
