Chapter 200 Ming Lanruo: I'm here to trouble her again!
Ming Lanruo looked on from the side and laughed softly. They both had awkward temperaments, and they were worthy of being father and son.
…
The years in Concubine Ming's Mansion were peaceful, but the Prince Qin's Mansion and the Zhou family were in chaos.
The news of Princess Qin Zhou Changle's sudden disappearance was suppressed by the two governments in the first three days, who were searching for someone privately. However, on the fourth day, the search for someone could no longer be suppressed.
What's more, Ming Lanruo would not allow them to suppress the news and deliberately let the news out.
For a time, rumors were flying everywhere, and when Dali Temple was almost alarmed, news suddenly came from the Prince of Qin's Mansion that the person had been found——
It is said that Princess Qin temporarily went to the temple to pray for His Royal Highness King Qin who was about to tour eastward, but the servant who was responsible for delivering the news accidentally fell from the mountain.
The Prince of Qin's Mansion didn't receive any news, so he thought the princess was missing.
This sounds like official news, but not many people believe it.
What more people believe is——
Princess Qin eloped with a retainer of Yongwuhou Mansion. As a result, the betrayed retainer sold her to a secret prostitute in fear of being hunted down.
Many people in the teahouses said privately that they had good noses and eyes. In addition, all the prostitution houses in Queer Hutong were raided by Dali Temple, and many women of unknown origins were rescued.
It almost confirms Princess Qin’s sexy and shocking scandal.
These days, the atmosphere in Prince Qin's palace is low and everyone is in danger.
Mrs. Yongwu Hou looked at Zhou Changle, who had been recovering at home for several days, but was still injured and had nightmares every night. He was curled up in the corner of the bed with a blank expression and no response no matter how he was called.
She was heartbroken and burst into tears: "My child, who harmed you? My mother will never let them go!"
King Qin Shangguan Hongjunku stood by the door with a gloomy face, holding back his anger.
When his men followed the clues and found Zhou Changle, she had been "open" for three days and had received many customers, describing it as miserable.
"Your Majesty, Changle is sorry for you, and the Zhou family is sorry for you." Zhou Yongwuhou, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked even uglier than King Qin.
The daughter lost her virginity, or lost her virginity in this way, which caused an uproar and greatly damaged the relationship and reputation between King Qin and the Zhou family.
Shangguan Hongye took a deep breath: "Uncle, you are joking. My cousin suffered because I failed to protect her."
After listening to Shangguan Hongye's words, Zhou Changle, who was curled up in the corner of the bed, moved slightly and his lips trembled.
Marquis Zhou Yongwu frowned: "Your Majesty, you don't have to cover up for a bad girl. This girl from Changle called Ye Da and the others and did something they shouldn't have done. Later, someone plotted against her and she ended up like this. It's because of my poor upbringing!"
Shangguan Hongye closed his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were exposed.
After reading Dali Temple's confession and combining it with what he found out, he roughly figured out what was going on.
A woman may not be beautiful, but she must not be brainless. Zhou Changle is so stupid that he has drained both houses. How could he have thought that such an idiot was more suitable to be a princess than Ming Lanruo!
But he still needs to appease his uncle. After all, the Zhou family's military power is still there, which is his biggest help.
He said in a deep voice: "Uncle, during the storm, our two families must be of one heart and one mind. I also have the blood of the Zhou family flowing in my body."
Zhou Yongwuhou was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "Yun'er, come here."
A slim figure walked over and respectfully saluted Zhou Yongwuhou and Shangguan Hongye: "Your Majesty, Dad."
Marquis Zhou Yongwu looked at Shangguan Hongye and said, "Your Highness, Xiangyun is a good boy. Although his status is a bit low, he has always been self-restrained and courteous. He is kind and gentle. It will be good for her to take care of Changle and take care of the backyard of the palace in the future."
Shangguan Hongye didn't have a deep memory of this concubine, and he only went to her place once, to complete the task of consummating the marriage.
But he also understood that at this time, no matter which daughter Yongwu Marquis gave him, he had to accept it.
Because Zhou Changle is dead, the Zhou family and the Qin Palace need a new bond and link.
What he accepted was a "marriage", not a specific person. Concubine Zhou was quite honest, and...
He looked at Zhou Xiangyun's slender and soft face. She had changed into a simple and elegant dress today, and she looked more delicate and beautiful. At first glance, she looked a bit like...Ming Lanruo.
Shangguan Hongye's eyes darkened slightly: "From today on, Concubine Zhou is promoted to Concubine Zhou. Please help me take care of the concubine and manage the palace."
A satisfied smile appeared on the rough face of Zhou Yongwuhou: "Compared to Changle, Xiangyun is smarter and can save a lot of trouble."
That's what his concubine is like.
But just as he finished speaking, he heard a burst of angry scolding: "Husband, how can you say these words to His Highness the King of Qin? Changle has just encountered such a tragic thing, and you have to create a new concubine for the prince!"
Mrs. Yongwuhou's face was extremely ugly. She helped the maid out and glared at Zhou Xiangyun hatefully.
Zhou Xiangyun immediately lowered his head obediently: "Mother, father just hopes that his daughter can take care of my eldest sister."
Marquis Zhou Yongwu also had a cold face: "Yes, Changle has a bad reputation. How can he go out and show his face to embarrass the people of the two houses? Xiangyun can take care of Changle, what's wrong with it!"
Xiangyun is also his daughter. She controls the backyard of Prince Qin's Mansion, just like Changle controls the backyard of Prince Qin's Mansion. Although her status is low, with the support of her Zhou family, there is nothing to fear!
Mrs. Yongwuhou looked at him in disbelief: "Take care of Changle, how are you going to take care of Changle!"
Shangguan Hongye said calmly: "My cousin is not feeling well. Since she likes to meditate in the temple, let's send her to the temple."
"What... how dare you!!" Mrs. Yongwuhou couldn't help but trembled.
Marquis Zhou Yongwu was furious and said sternly: "Madam is crazy, why are you talking to His Highness!"
The princess who lost her virginity must either die or be sent to the family temple. The King of Qin did not take Chang Le's life because it was for his sake!
"No...no...cousin...I won't go...you can't do this to me, my body hurts, and those stinky men are bullying me!"
Zhou Changle suddenly walked out in despair. Just after hearing those words, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground in a panic. He wanted to grab the corners of Shangguan Hongye's robe.
She suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhou Xiangyun looking at her coldly.
Zhou Changle yelled at Shangguan Hongye: "I am your direct cousin...your princess, how dare you drive me away and support that little bitch who has no place on the stage? Are you crazy!!
"
Shangguan Hongye stepped back, not letting her touch him, and said indifferently——
"It's you who are crazy. Come here, the princess is in poor health and is suffering from hysteria. She should be sent back to her room and given a good look. She will be sent out of the city on a day after she is cured."
After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Xiangyun: "Concubine Zhou, I leave this to you."
"Yes." Zhou Xiangyun was flattered and said softly.
"Uncle, aunt, please take care of your cousin first, I have something else to do." After Shangguan Hongye finished speaking, he turned around and left without looking back.
She grabbed her hair frantically and screamed: "Ahhhhhhhhhhh - Ming Lanruo, it's all you who hurt me! It's all you, I'm going to kill you!"
Everything, just as Ming Lanruo said, everything about her will be taken away! She is not willing to give in!
Listening to Zhou Changle's scream, Zhou Yongwuhou's eyes flashed with irritability and viciousness, Ming Lanruo, Ming Lanruo again!
But Shangguan Hongye wouldn't let him touch that dead girl now. Now that all his limbs were disabled and his sons were still supporting her at the border, he really didn't dare to move rashly for the time being.
"Shut up, you either don't do something, or you do it absolutely, and you do it neatly. What stupid things you do, do you think you are worthy of being the eldest daughter of Marquis Yongwu?!" Marquis Zhou Yongwu scolded him coldly and asked others to reject him.
Follow him and leave.
Only Mrs. Yongwuhou and Zhou Changle, who was about to faint, hugged each other and cried.
Zhou Xiangyun looked at everything indifferently. Sure enough, Concubine Ming was a capable person and her calculations were really accurate——
She took Zhou Changle's place, took away everything the eldest sister who had bullied her since childhood cared about most, and watched Zhou Changle end up...
What a relief!
…
As soon as Shangguan Hongye came out of the yard, he said with a cold face: "Get ready, I'm going to go find Minglan Ruona to settle the score!"
"Yes!" His subordinates immediately went to prepare their horses.
In the largest teahouse in the capital, Ming Lanruo, Xu Xiuyi, and Mo Feiyan were drinking tea and listening to music in the teahouse on the second floor with their maids.
At this time, the singer in the teahouse made up a play based on the elopement of "Princess Qin and the guest"——
A funny little play about "a charming concubine who runs away at night and is abandoned, and a noble girl who sells herself to prostitution".
The group of tea drinkers below were made to laugh so hard that they leaned forward and backward.
"Ming Lanruo, get out of here!" A tall figure suddenly broke in.
