The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

At the same time, in Chu Chenlan's bedroom in Qinyu Palace of Concubine Yuan Shu in the imperial palace.

Liu Qingxiu and Chu Chenlan were very engaged in their conversation.

"Third Princess, these are just a small token of my respect. I wish you happiness!" Liu Qingxiu ordered her maid to come forward and present the wedding gifts to Chu Chenlan. The gifts were very high-end, including jewelry from the Jinyu Pavilion, fabrics from the Jinxiu Square, gouache from the Caidie Pavilion, and paintings and calligraphy.

"Ah! Sister Qingxiu, why did you give so many gifts?" She is a princess and she was excited to see so many gifts.

"Third Princess, you are asked to marry into Nanchu. It's not like your own home. Bring some more for self-defense."

"Thank you, Sister Qingxiu." This Liu Qingxiu is really good at dealing with people. Chu Chenlan was very touched by these words. She didn't know that something was waiting for her later.

"Third Princess, you and I don't have to be polite. If you encounter anything in Nanchu and feel unhappy, you can write to me. If Brother Haobo treats you badly, you can also tell me and I will let Master talk to him."

"Yes! Yes! Sister Qingxiu, you and Liang Haobo are senior and junior brothers and sisters. If he treats me badly in the future, this princess will write you a letter." Chu Chenlan said shyly.

"Well, I will definitely decide for you."

"Sister Qingxiu, you are the best."

"Third Princess, didn't you say you would hold a banquet before you left? Are you still planning to do it?"

"Well, Nanchu will be coming to pick up the bride in a few days. This princess is going to hold a small banquet the day after tomorrow and will send you the invitation tomorrow. You must come."

"Of course, I will come. Third Princess, are you going to hold this banquet in the palace or at your maternal grandparents' home?"

"I have already told my brother that we will hold the event in his residence."

"Third Princess, you can actually choose a place outside to do it."

"Sister Qingxiu, where can we hold this kind of banquet outside?"

"Maybe you don't know this yet, there is a Wanchun Garden in Kyoto, the scenery is very beautiful, there is a new scene at every step in the garden! There are teahouses and restaurants inside. It is the best place to hold a small banquet like this."

"Sister Qingxiu! Is there such a good place in Kyoto? How come I don't know about it?"

"Well, it's only been open for a little over a month. I went there to have a meal, it was really nice, this garden makes you linger, and the food tastes great too."

"Well, it must be a lot of silver, right?"

"Third Princess, don't worry. I know the manager of Wanchun Garden. If you go, I can help you find a discount from the manager. I will give you the cheapest price. I can accompany you to take a look and have some fun."

"Sister Qingxiu, if you say yes, then yes. I am too busy right now and have no time to go out. Well, my brother's house has been quite busy recently, so I'd like to trouble you, Sister Qingxiu, to help me talk to the steward and ask him to charge less money."

"Third Princess, you don't need to be polite with me. I will go find the steward later and make sure he charges you the least money and does the best for you."

"That's great."

"Third Princess, you need to entertain those people..."

In the evening, the palace maids went to the imperial kitchen to get their master's dinner. At this time, a maid ran out of the Cining Palace, hurriedly passed the other maids and eunuchs walking on the road, and ran to the imperial study. Everyone in the palace was speculating what happened.

The little maid, who was unaware of the commotion in the palace, stumbled to the door of the imperial study and saw the eunuch at the door. She gasped and said, "Young eunuch, I am from the Cining Palace. Please let me see the emperor. Something happened to Cining."

Eunuch Hong in the study heard the conversation outside and quickly walked out of the study. "What's going on? So loud."

"Eunuch Hong, please quickly report to the Emperor that Nanny Wu of the Cining Palace wants to kill the Empress Dowager."

"What? Is the Queen Mother okay?"

"The Queen Mother is fine. Nanny Wu has been killed."

"The Empress Dowager must be terrified. Go back quickly and ask someone to ask the imperial physician to see the Empress Dowager. I will report this to the Emperor now."

"Okay, Eunuch Hong." The little palace maid seemed relieved and hurried away again.

Eunuch Hong turned back to the study and said, "Your Majesty!"

"what's up?"

"Your Majesty! Something happened in the Cining Palace. A maid came and reported that a maid wanted to kill the Empress Dowager."

"Is there such a thing? Who is so bold as to assassinate the Queen Mother? Come! Follow me and take a look."

"Get going! Go to Cining Palace." Eunuch Hong shouted loudly.

……

When the emperor arrived at the Cining Palace, the empress and some concubines were surrounding the empress dowager, who was being examined by the imperial physician.

When everyone saw the emperor coming in, they all bowed.

"No need to be so polite, mother. What's wrong with you?" The emperor saw that the empress dowager's face was pale.

The Queen Mother had not recovered from her fear and had not spoken yet, so her trusted confidant, Madam Zeng, hurried forward and told the Emperor, "Your Majesty, for some unknown reason today, the Queen Mother asked Madam Wu to bring the bird's nest, but she not only did not bring the bird's nest, but she came to the Queen Mother and pinched her neck."

"Doctor Chen, is there anything wrong with my mother now?"

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's neck was pinched purple, but fortunately she was rescued in time and is now fine."

"Mother, does your neck hurt now? Where is Nanny Wu? Hurry and bring her up to me."

"He was killed by my people." At this time, the Queen Mother finally came to her senses and said something.

"Well done! Well done! Let the Ministry of Punishment investigate. Who told her to do this?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Queen Mother really couldn't understand why Nanny Wu, one of her confidants, wanted to kill her today.

When Aunt Wu pinched her, she kept saying something, "You old fool, I'm so loyal to you, but you're not good to me and are good to Zeng. I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you! You'll be good to me and the only one who'll be good to me when you die."

The Queen Mother still hadn't responded to what Nanny Wu meant by that. She had never expected that the poisonous insect she wanted to harm Ouyang Yunyao had entered Nanny Wu's body. It was because Nanny Wu took the medicine that activated the poisonous insect that the old witch had tasted death.

When Chu Nan's family heard about this, they wanted to go to the palace to see the Queen Mother, but the palace gates were closed.

Night falls. There is no moon tonight. Such a night is suitable for murder and arson.

Ouyang Yunyao and Chu Chenjing had no intention of killing or setting fire to anything. They just wanted to lie down in a corner and explore Wanchun Garden on a night like this.

Chu Chenjing took Ouyang Yunyao to his private room in Zuixianlou, had dinner and rested for a while.

At this time, the sounds of night watchmen knocking on the street came from the street. "Dong, Dong!", "Dong, Dong!"

There are also the words of the night watchman: "Close the doors and windows to prevent theft and burglary." It is already the second watch, which is nine o'clock in the evening in modern times, but in ancient times, everything is just right.

"Ajing, it's the second watch." Ouyang Yunyao said as she listened to the night watchman's voice.

"Well, Yaoyao, let's go."
