In the back room of Prince Cheng's Mansion, the boy who had returned from the inquiry was whispering something to Zhu Changshi. After a while, he saw Zhu Changshi going to see Prince Cheng with a solemn expression.
In the study, King Cheng looked at Zhu Gui who came in and said calmly: "What's the matter?"
Zhu Gui said quickly: "Report to the prince, you asked the people sent to check on my aunt to come back."
King Cheng almost forgot about it. Hearing the sound, he raised his head and asked: "How?"
Zhu Gui shook his head, and when he got closer, he lowered his voice and said: "It's strange to say that she is obviously a helpless aunt, and her face is disfigured. Logically speaking, there is no other way to survive in the capital except relying on my uncle.
.”
King Cheng sneered, already knowing that things were not simple, he said: "It doesn't matter, just say it."
Zhu Gui nodded and continued: "That woman withdrew a large amount of money from the bank, won over the people around her who were monitoring her, and had private contact with a servant of Wu Jinghou Mansion. It just so happened that that servant
This person is the dowry of the Mei family, and the Mei family is already as dead as a dead person in the Wu Jinghou Mansion..."
King Cheng suddenly understood and slowly stood up.
Of course he knew about Mei Min and Gao Xian. The old master originally intended to marry his daughter to Gao Xian, and both families were engaged, but for some reason he regretted it.
Is it possible that these two people are still trying to get along privately?
King Cheng clenched his fist and became furious.
Unfortunately, this matter cannot be revealed yet. Once it is revealed, Gao Xian's career will be over, his daughter will become a laughing stock, and his unborn grandson will naturally not have a good background.
Thinking of this, King Cheng couldn't wait to expose Gao Xian right now.
But he paced back and forth in the room, quickly calmed down, and said, "Are you sure that the Mei family in Wu Jinghou's mansion and Gao Xian's concubine are the same person?"
Zhu Gui hesitated and said, "We can't be sure yet."
When King Cheng heard this, he sneered and said: "Don't worry, you go and check it first. After you check it out, come back to me and we can deal with it slowly."
Zhu Gui responded quickly and hurried down to arrange for someone to find out the truth.
Prince Cheng returned to the main room, told the princess that he missed his daughter, and asked the princess to pick up her daughter and come to the palace to stay for a while.
Princess Cheng has wanted to do this for a long time. Due to her husband's silence, her daughter has also become a married woman. It is not like before that she can be called to her at any time.
Before going to bed, she said happily: "I thought you didn't want your daughter."
King Cheng said: "Why don't you think about it? Our couple only has two children in total. One is around and can be seen every day. The other is married and can't come back often. Fortunately, it's the end of the year. It's human nature to take him back for a short stay. Gao
Mr. Xian can understand."
Princess Cheng was dissatisfied and said: "Why do you always have to take care of Gao Xian? Our daughter is ours. Even though she is married, she is still the royal princess. According to me, she can come back when she wants. She may even live in the house like the eldest princess.
A mansion given by the royal family is also acceptable."
King Cheng explained: "We can't protect our daughter forever. I care about Gao Xian because I want him to care about Yanyang in the future. Don't you understand this?"
Of course Princess Cheng understands, but she feels that as a royal princess, her daughter is still wronged.
She even said: "If you don't have great ambitions, I don't want to be affected. This country of Dayan..."
King Cheng covered her mouth, and in her puzzled eyes, he said slowly: "It's not about ambition, it's about the ability to govern the country. Stop talking nonsense and go to bed."
Princess Cheng kicked him and said angrily: "I have been an honest person all my life. I am not going to rebel. I am just saying a few words. Do you need to be so nervous?"
"Besides, this is still a couple talking at night!"
After saying that, Princess Cheng turned around and fell asleep angrily.
Prince Cheng looked at her back and hugged her sideways. Unexpectedly, Princess Cheng snorted coldly and fell asleep further.
King Cheng sighed softly and did not continue to force himself. However, his dark eyes were sharp and cold, and it could be seen that he was not a weak person who could be bullied.
…
"The emperor is going to have a queen?"
An Bin asked and fell down on the chair in shock.
Eunuch Zheng beside her quickly supported her and said with concern: "Be careful, my dear, don't fall."
An Bin's eyes were dull, her lips were pursed, her body was shaking, and suddenly she couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
How could it be so sudden?
Isn't the emperor not a womanizer?
Is he sincerely attracted to Jiang Qing?
But is he sincere?
An Bin thought of the past, her current situation, and the emperor's neglect of her...
Full of resentment and grievance, as well as helplessness and humiliation, she finally couldn't help but shed tears, feeling panic-stricken.
If the emperor has a queen, who is she? Who is the prince?
Will she never be the queen mother in her life? Will the prince and Jiang Qing get along so harmoniously, will he never visit her again?
"Go quickly, go find the prince, and tell him that I am sick, very sick."
An Bin cried in a panic and looked really scared.
Eunuch Zheng was originally the prince's son, so he felt very embarrassed when he saw An Bin acting like this.
Because he didn't want to deceive the prince.
But An Bin pushed him hard and said angrily: "Why don't you go? Go quickly!"
Eunuch Zheng had no choice but to go to the prince.
But when he passed by the Imperial Garden, he saw Xu Xiujun, the woman who often hung around the flower manager.
She was said to be a palace maid, but no one was seen calling her.
She is said to be a nanny, but she is not seen on duty. Instead, she is just like Hua Gonggong, wandering around in her small courtyard all day long.
Seeing Eunuch Zheng, Xu Xiujun bent her knees slightly and smiled.
Eunuch Zheng immediately blushed and stepped forward and asked, "How is Aunt Xiujun doing lately?"
Xu Xiujun nodded and wrote on the ground with a branch: "Why are you so sad? Did An Bin scold you?"
Eunuch Zheng saw that she had written it and sold it, but he seemed to have found someone to whom he could talk. After all, Xu Xiujun could not speak.
He immediately said: "Yes, isn't it being said in the palace that the emperor is going to have a queen?"
Xu Xiujun nodded, frowned slightly, and wrote with a hint of disgust: "Is she going to make trouble again?"
Eunuch Zheng sneered: "What are you making a fuss about? You pretended to be sick and asked me to find His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I just accepted it. For the sake of His Highness the Crown Prince, the Emperor didn't do anything to her. He served her delicious food and drinks, and was served by groups of servants. His Highness the Crown Prince would also visit her from time to time."
"The emperor just wants to have a queen, and she is so excited. What if the new queen gives birth to a little prince?"
Xu Xiujun immediately shook her head and wrote with a serious face: "You can't say that?"
"Oh?" Eunuch Zheng was surprised, what should he say?
Looking carefully, Xu Xiuyun continued to write: "You are His Highness the Crown Prince's servant. If you want to share the worries of His Highness the Crown Prince, you must stabilize Concubine An's mood."
"You go back and tell Concubine An, calm down, send someone to invite the emperor, and say that we have something to discuss about the prince."
Xu Xiujun was still writing. Eunuch Zheng looked down and wiped everything he had read.
His heart suddenly picked up, and while he was alert, he also felt novel.
It was as if someone was opening a wider road in front of him.
