In Duke Bai's mansion, Jiang Long came in happily, holding a tray in his hand. There were many expensive and festive jewelry and rouge and gouache on the tray.
"Madam, the young master sent this to you!" Jiang Long said with a smile.
Song Tuanyuan looked at it and thought of the letter Ji Changan had sent before, and understood what he meant.
But can she really marry Ji Changan?
The emperor has not made any movement or movement until now, and Song Tuanyuan feels very uneasy.
And Prince Cheng and Concubine Shu are all time bombs.
"Madam, someone sent a letter outside and left it at the door. I don't know who put it there!" Hua Hu came in, holding a letter in his hand.
Song Tuanyuan quickly took the letter, opened it, and frowned slightly.
Sure enough, what you are afraid of is what comes. This is a letter sent to her by Concubine Shu. It was not delivered openly, but was secretly placed at the door. This shows that there are people from Concubine Shu in the White Mansion!
"Madam, whose letter is it?" Jiang Long asked.
"It's Concubine Shu!" Song Tuanyuan said, "Make an appointment to meet me in the evening!"
Jiang Long quickly said: "I'll tell the young master about this!"
"Don't worry, I'm not going!" Song Tuanyuan said softly.
Jiang Long was stunned: "Madam, aren't you afraid that Concubine Shu will jump over the wall if she gets angry and talk nonsense in the palace?"
Song Tuanyuan smiled and said, "Maybe you fell into a trap if you go!"
Jiang Long understood immediately.
"I'm not going, but I have to pretend that I am going!" Song Tuanyuan whispered something into Jiang Long and Hua Hu's ears, and they nodded quickly.
After a while Jiang Long and Hua Hu came out of the room.
The nun who owns the kitchen came and asked: "You two girls, the eldest lady asked this old slave to ask the eldest lady, what is for dinner?"
Jiang Long said softly: "No need to prepare, my wife is going out soon and won't be eating at home!"
Grandma quickly agreed and left.
Seeing Mammy leave, Jiang Long turned to Hua Hu and said, "We can have a good rest tonight!"
"No!" Hua Hu smiled, and the two of them left with a smile on their face.
At the corner, a gray figure looked at him and then quickly left.
In the ruined temple outside the city, at the agreed place, Concubine Shu sat on a chair brought by her mother-in-law and waited.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Fan has sent someone over!" A woman stepped forward and whispered.
Concubine Shu nodded.
The mother-in-law glanced outside: "It's almost the appointed time, why doesn't Song Tuanyuan show up yet?"
Concubine Shu said softly: "It will come!"
The mother-in-law just waited with peace of mind.
One stick of incense, a quarter of an hour, and half an hour passed, but the outside of the ruined temple was still deserted, and the roars of wild beasts continued to sound.
At this moment, a maid hurried in.
The mother-in-law said happily: "Maybe it's coming!"
Concubine Shu also raised her tired eyes.
"Concubine Shu, Concubine Fan's people have left!" the maid reported cautiously.
Concubine Shu frowned coldly, clenched her fingers, stood up and left.
Grandma looked at the chair. After struggling, she had no choice but to throw down the chair and hurried to chase Concubine Shu.
On the carriage back, Concubine Shu was so angry that her silver teeth almost broke.
"This Song Tuanyuan is really brave. Does she really think that I will not tell the emperor her identity?" Concubine Shu said bitterly.
Grandma stood aside and did not dare to speak.
Concubine Shu clenched her hand. Now King Cheng was no longer trusted. If she told the emperor that Princess Qingyuan was still alive, the emperor would be even more furious. This was why Concubine Shu could not make up her mind.
Tonight, she wanted Song Tuanyuan to admit it in person so that she could sell the news to Fan Guifei's people, so that Fan Guifei would not cooperate with Ji Changan and Song Tuanyuan when they knew about their rebel identities, but now it seems that
, this plan failed!
At this moment in the palace, Prince Liang was very unhappy: "Concubine, why did you believe that Concubine Shu? You don't even think about it, why did she tell us such a big secret instead of reporting it to the emperor herself?
Isn’t this just an attempt to take advantage of us?”
Concubine Fan said: "I originally thought that Concubine Shu was desperate now and couldn't lie to us, so I believed her now!"
Concubine Fan thought for a while and then said: "Looking at her tonight, she looks confident. What do you think Song Tuanyuan has that she has caught?"
Prince Liang said in a low voice: "Now that Eleven is willing to help us, we can't fall into Concubine Shu's scheme and break away from Eleven!"
Concubine Fan nodded: "When you say this, I feel that there is a possibility. Concubine Shu may be trying to create a mystery to drive a wedge between you and Ji Shiyi!"
Prince Liang nodded: "Fortunately, Song Tuan Yuan did not go today. If he had gone, then Concubine Shu would have pulled out the concubine's people. How could the concubine have her son and ministers face the eleventh?"
Prince Liang then said: "Think about it, mother and concubine, even if Song Tuanyuan has something to do with Concubine Shu, why don't they use it themselves to blackmail the Eleven gang? Now Eleven has not helped them, but has helped us, so my son
I think, even if this is a big deal, we don’t want it! Now I just want a bunch of eleven people to get that position!"
Concubine Fan thought for a while and said, "That's right. Song Tuanyuan, a country woman, can have any big leverage in Concubine Shu's hands. The biggest thing she can do is steal a man and kill her ex-husband!"
The King of Liang smiled and said: "My mother is right, even if she stole a man and killed her previous husband before the reunion of Song Dynasty, what does it have to do with us? Shiyi likes her, and would rather risk the world's disapproval to marry her. The father and the emperor's grandmother
Even if we can’t stop it, we can stop it? Besides, why should we stop it? Only if Shiyi marries such a woman will she be willing to cooperate with us. If it were any other normal woman, maybe Shiyi wouldn’t pay attention to us!”
The more Concubine Fan listened, the more she felt that what Prince Liang said was very reasonable, so she nodded and said: "My son is right, you see, my mother-in-law almost delayed your important event. Don't worry, from today on, my mother-in-law will also
Be kind to that Song Tuanyuan!"
Concubine Fan said and ordered the nuns beside her: "Go to the warehouse to pick out some festive jewelry and send them to Lord Qingshan County. Just be low-key when sending them. After all, the emperor doesn't know what he wants now!"
Prince Liang said: "Concubine, we can't occupy both sides. In this matter, we should try our best to stand on the side of Shiyi and Qingshan County Lord, but it's a little early to give jewelry now!"
Concubine Fan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's right, so as not to make your father suspect that you and Ji Shiyi jointly moved Prince Cheng!"
Prince Liang nodded, "The concubine should just secretly help the Lord of Qingshan County!"
Concubine Fan nodded and looked up at Prince Liang: "Now as long as your marriage is confirmed and your father is happy, you will naturally be lovable in front of your father!"
Concubine Fan took out the portrait and said, "How about you come and see the concubine that the Queen Mother has chosen for you?"
