King Shangguan Hongye of Qin took a sip of the tea she poured and suddenly smiled.
"Lan Ruo, you have to have a plan when you lie. Qiantose, the palm print of Dongchang, will never let you get involved in Dongchang's affairs even if he loves you."
Ming Lanruo paused because she was negligent. Although Shangguan Hongye didn't understand the true relationship between Cang Qiao and her.
But he knew the emperor very well, and Cang Qiao, as Dongchang, must be thorough - the "lone minister" would never be involved with any force.
How could an "outsider" like her who was not involved in the matter be allowed to intervene in Dongchang affairs?
"I heard that Qian Suiye has gone into seclusion to refine elixirs for his father. Today, you came to Que'er Hutong alone?" King Qin looked at her with a smile.
But there was a strong murderous intention hidden in that hearty smile.
For a moment, a chilling silence filled the air.
She squeezed the cup slightly, her mind spinning rapidly.
She came alone, which was just convenient for him to kill her. No one knew that King Qin was Tan Zhi, the piano master. As long as her body was destroyed and her traces were wiped out, not even Dongchang could do anything to him.
The restaurant seemed empty, with the drinkers and girls sleeping in the room.
But she knows better than anyone that this place is full of secret rooms and secret passages extending in all directions, all of which hide dead warriors holding sharp blades.
If she answers a wrong word next time, she will be cut into pieces.
Ming Lanruo bent her eyes, as if helpless: "Your Highness is indeed smart, I just overheard the information received by Master Qiantose, but if I don't use the name of Dongchang, how can I join forces with you to deal with the prince?"
King Qin was startled, raised his eyebrows and laughed: "Hahaha, I remember clearly that he and you cooperated tacitly in Chunming Palace, which caused my mother to lose the right to command the Sixth Palace, and made this palace become a person with no real power.
Idle people.”
He suddenly approached Ming Lanruo and held her chin: "Now, you said you want to deal with him?"
Ming Lanruo's chin was pinched so hard that it hurt, and he did not hide the cold murderous look in his eyes.
She looked directly into his red phoenix eyes: "Yes, because I can't bear to see my father being deceived by a hypocrite like the prince."
King Qin was stunned and narrowed his eyes: "Tell me."
Ming Lanruo said: "The prince plans to take advantage of my father's disaster relief work to frame him, and then he will take action to turn the tide in exchange for my father's complete support for him."
To the King of Qin, who is a cunning and ruthless power wielder, he must tell nine percent truth and one percent lie.
In fact, the prince had no intention of taking action to turn the tide, and only asked the bandits to spare the life of his crippled father.
But she couldn't tell the whole truth.
Shangguan Hongye naturally knew that although Ming Guogong married his daughter to the prince, the group of civil servants led by him did not side with the prince unconditionally.
Therefore, Ming Lanruo's words are very convincing.
but......
"Why don't you ask Jiu Qiansui to take action?" Shangguan Hongye asked suspiciously.
Ming Lanruo sighed: "Because my father hates the Nine Thousand Years Old. If he takes action, my father might directly join the prince's camp!"
"Your Highness doesn't want to see my father completely defecting to the prince, right?" Ming Lanruo threw out the bait.
Shangguan Hongye narrowed his eyes: "The whole capital knows that you have been expelled from the Ming family a long time ago. Are you trying to take the opportunity to return to the Ming family after deposing your second sister, the Crown Princess?"
Ming Lanruo nodded: "Yes, for you, showing your face in front of my father can also make the prince fail. For me, I can use the opportunity of saving my father's errand to return to the Ming family."
People like Shangguan Hongye will only trust people who are as ambitious or have ulterior motives as him.
So, she might as well give him a reason to trust her.
Shangguan Hongye stared at her for a long time before letting go of his hand holding her chin: "What are you going to do?"
If Ming Lanruo knew, it was because Shangguan Hongye believed her.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin has taken off his errands anyway and is idle. Why not send someone to the northeast to mess with His Highness the Crown Prince's wishful thinking?" Ming Lanruo smiled and suddenly held his hand.
