Despite the scolding, neither Yan Peiyu nor Ying Cailan looked surprised.
Ying Caiyue lowered her profile and became the eldest prince's concubine, which was completely expected.
"She is your fugitive concubine." Ying Cailan glanced at Yan Peiyu with a half-smile.
Yan Peiyu looked innocent: "I didn't dare touch her, why are you looking at me like that?"
Ying Cailan laughed, poured herself a cup of tea, and said:
"Okay, but in name only."
"With her reputation, there is no other possibility besides being a concubine."
"No one with a lower status than you would dare to marry her."
"So, she can only be found among the princes."
"Don't even think about the prince's side, she won't even have a chance to get close."
"The third prince's mother's family is not very strong."
"The fourth prince is twelve years old and is still a child, and the sixth prince is still a one-year-old baby!"
"So, she has taken a liking to the eldest prince a long time ago and has been working hard for it."
"Now that she has entered the First Prince's Mansion, it is already a matter of asking for mercy and getting mercy for her."
Chuan Bei came in with face wash. When he heard what she said, he asked in confusion: "Is it a good thing that the imperial concubine will become the eldest prince's concubine instead of doing it?"
Ying Cailan looked at the evil prince sitting opposite and responded with a half-smile: "If it were you, would it be better to be the prince's concubine who might be buried with him, or to live on as a concubine?"
When given a choice, no one wants to be a concubine.
Yan Peiyu's status is already very noble, otherwise she would not have asked Prince Kang's palace to explain her marriage immediately when her legitimate daughter was stolen.
But Yan Peiyu was in a coma at the time, and she was marrying her for joy. If he died soon, wouldn't she rush to die as his crown princess?
Between death and life, is there still a choice?
Knowing that she said this to him on purpose, Yan Peiyu smiled slightly: "So, not everyone is as kind-hearted as my concubine, and they still jump into it knowing that it is a trap?"
Ying Cailan gritted her teeth and curled her lips.
Did she take the initiative to jump into the trap?
He obviously took the blame right after traveling through time!
Did she stay with a kind heart?
It was obvious that he was holding me back and not allowed to leave!
She was too lazy to argue with him and brought her attention back: "Ying Caiyue is used to being patient, and she has been taught viciousness by Aunt Wang for many years. After she enters the eldest prince's palace, she should have two paths to pursue at the same time."
"First, take the top position!"
"Second, take revenge on me!"
Chuan Bei immediately asked: "Then the smashing of the shop this time was done by Miss Ying?"
Ying Cailan shook her head: "I don't think so. She is riding the wind now. Such a tolerant person should not expose herself for this little thing. If I were her, my top priority would be to establish a foothold in the First Prince's Mansion first, and wait until I am strong enough.
Let’s deal with our enemies again!”
Yan Peiyu tilted her head and asked: "Since you know what you are doing, what are you going to do?"
Ying Cailan smiled and said: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
In the absence of concrete evidence that Ying Caiyue had attempted to murder her, if she had taken advantage of her first, she would have been the one to commit the crime.
It is said that when the emperor breaks the law, he is as guilty as the common people.
Even if she is the Crown Princess, can Mrs. Ying and Aunt Wang not do anything to kill Ying Caiyue?
What's more, it can be proved today that Ying Caiyue has hooked up with the eldest prince a long time ago.
It was Ying Cailan's fault. If the eldest prince stood up for Ying Caiyue, even if Yan Peiyu wanted to protect him, he might not be able to.
That’s what imperial power is all about!
Until now——
"Go and find out what the eldest princess's schedule is these days, and arrange an unexpected encounter with her for me!"
Although Prince Kang has been suppressed for so many years, it does not mean that he really has no influence at all.
And Yan Peiyu has also secretly raised a lot of people over the years.
Ying Cailan didn't know the specific details.
But as soon as she asked for some news, Yan Peiyu got it for her within a few days.
"The eldest princess will go to Changchun Garden to listen to a play tomorrow."
"Oh." Ying Cailan had a little headache thinking about singing and babbling.
She doesn't understand opera and can't appreciate it.
On this point, there is no common ground with the eldest princess.
But it’s okay, I’m not going to watch the show anyway: “I’m going too!”
Naturally, Yan Peiyu would not refuse and immediately responded: "Arrangement."
Ying Cailan was stunned and turned to look at him: "Do you also have a grudge against Caiyue?"
"First of all, my imperial concubine has a grudge against her." Yan Peiyu smiled at her and said, "Secondly, who knows if the eldest prince is suspected?"
Ying Cailan: "!!!"
That’s right!
Maybe the eldest prince wants to kill the prince, so he should start with the companion who is closely related to the prince.
Or, the target is the prince, and Yan Peiyu is cannon fodder!
But why does this sound so strange?
She frowned and asked: "Are you asking me to charge into battle for you? Use women to explore the way?"
Yan Peiyu raised her hand, pinched her earlobe, and said: "No, this is called reasonable distribution. You take the first step, and my husband will follow soon!"
"Then it's better for me to charge, and you take the rear?" Ying Cailan glanced at him, but she didn't mind very much, and said, "If something happens to me, you have to get me back in time!"
Anyway, Ying Caiyue and her will definitely not be able to coexist.
She must do something, and she must take the credit!
"That's natural." Yan Peiyu replied with a smile: "How can I still let my woman fall into the hands of others?"
At this time, Xiang Chong's voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, Longjun has replied!"
When Yan Peiyu heard this, her smile became a little more excited: "Bring it in quickly."
Xiang Chong brought the letter in and handed it to him.
He tore open the paint-sealed envelope and opened the letter inside.
Ying Cailan didn't know what the legendary acupuncture technique was, but she was indeed a medical fanatic. She asked urgently: "How is it? Did your Nine Emperors Aunt agree?"
Yan Peiyu read through the letter at a glance.
When he raised his head, his eyes, which were as bright as the stars, were filled with genuine excitement: "Aunt Nine Emperors has agreed, and she has already left for Beijing!"
Feeling his joy, Ying Cailan was also infected: "Isn't it true that I can't return to Beijing without being summoned?"
Yan Peiyu chewed on this sentence: "Isn't this... the Queen Mother's birthday is coming soon?"
Although, the Queen Mother is the emperor's biological mother, not the Nine Emperors Uncle's.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean it can’t be a legitimate reason!
They wrote a note and wanted to go to the capital to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday. Even if he knew that the drunkard's intention was not to drink, the emperor had to agree.
Ying Cailan was very curious about Aunt Nine Emperors, whom she had never met before, "Then when Aunt Nine Emperors comes back, the Crown Prince can return to the world?"
There is still one month left before the Queen Mother's birthday.
Arriving from Longjun to Imperial Capital, it took seven or eight days to travel with the whole family in tow.
Until then, there are plenty of other things to do!
And Yan Peiyu's "illness" should be completely cured.
By then, he can make his official debut!
The next day, Changchun Garden Theater.
When Ying Cailan arrived, the play had already begun.
"What's going on? I booked a private room, but I arrived half an hour late. Why can't I go in?"
