Quick Wear: My love-brained childhood sweetheart always asks me for a kiss
Chapter 315: The Gloomy Regent vs. the Fake Gold Spy (12)
The system regrets it now. It shouldn't have chosen randomly to save time. It actually bound such a host with incorrect values. Is there still hope for this task? Unfortunately, it takes more than 6 months to unbind after binding. It's too late to regret now.
Even if it was unreliable, he had to endure it for six months.
Fortunately, the time in reality is different from that here, otherwise he would really become autistic.
On the Queen Mother's birthday, Chi Tingwan and Song Shiyan arrived very late, later than Song Xuanchu and the main character, Queen Mother Li.
Although she had expected this, Empress Dowager Li still felt a little embarrassed. The two of them didn't care at all, one bowed and the other bowed slightly, both of them were perfunctory to the extreme.
The palace was completely silent. No one dared to breathe. I heard that the nanny beside the Queen Mother had put a curse on the Regent Princess, and the Regent cut off her tendons and tongue and killed her.
Now it seems that the rumors are true.
The Regent Princess was the daughter of Chi Xianghe and the eldest princess. She often visited the palace in the past. At that time, the emperor was still the crown prince, and the queen mother was still the queen. At that time, she often went to Fengyi Palace to pay a visit and was very close to the queen.
Everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is the designated Crown Princess.
But now it has turned out like this, it is really sad.
Fortunately, the birthday gift that Song Shiyan sent was quite decent, otherwise Empress Dowager Li would really have lost her composure.
Seeing Song Shiyan holding Chi Tingwan's hand intimately as they sat down to eat, Song Xuanchu couldn't help but clench his hands hidden under his sleeves. Even though he knew it was inappropriate, he couldn't help but follow the two of them.
I heard that she and the emperor's uncle have been very close recently. The two of them once discussed chess all night and had a great time. It seemed that they had become close friends.
If these two are allowed to continue developing this relationship, it is only a matter of time before they develop feelings for each other.
Song Shiyan and Chi Tingwan both planned to sit for a while and then leave and go home.
But Song Xuanchu took the initiative to leave the table and called Song Shiyan out.
There was a wine pot and two wine glasses on the stone table. Song Xuanchu smiled at Song Shiyan who was approaching. "It has been a long time since my uncle and I have had a drink together. Why don't we take this opportunity to have a few drinks together today?"
Song Shiyan smiled faintly, "It's rare for His Majesty to be in such a refined mood, so I should naturally accompany you."
At the banquet, Chi Tingwan watched the performance in front of her with some lack of interest. Just when she was about to go out to find Song Shiyan, a palace servant who came to exchange wine suddenly spilled wine all over her. Chi Tingwan's eyes suddenly turned cold. It's really old-fashioned...
"I deserve to die! I deserve to die!" The palace maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed madly.
The noise here is so loud that it's hard for others not to notice it.
"What happened?" Empress Dowager Li, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help but ask.
"It seems that a palace servant accidentally spilled wine on the Regent Princess." Concubine Yun Shu looked at the palace servant with disgust, "How clumsy."
"You don't know the rules." Empress Dowager Li looked cold, "Why don't you drag him out and punish him with a stick!"
The maidservant's legs went limp with fear, "Her Majesty the Queen Mother, please spare me! Her Majesty the Queen Mother, please spare me!"
"Never mind. It's not a big deal."
Queen Mother Li was not surprised at all. Chi Tingwan did this kind of thing to plead for the palace maids. She was obviously the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she always sympathized with lowly people. This only proved that she herself was a lowly person.
"Miss Chi is still so kind and soft-hearted." Duan Sicen couldn't hide his admiration in his eyes.
"My lord, Miss Chi is now the regent princess..." the servant beside him couldn't help but remind him.
Duan Sicen's eyes flashed with disappointment, "I know. The Regent treats her very well, I should be relieved..."
The servant couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Their young master had been obsessed with Miss Chi since he was twelve years old. But Miss Chi was the designated Crown Princess. No matter how he tried to persuade her, it was useless.
The young marquis thought that the so-called internal appointment was just a polite remark, and as long as Miss Chi did not marry into the Eastern Palace, there was still room for reversal. At that time, he just thought that their young marquis was comforting himself.
But I didn't expect that things would actually change.
Miss Chi did not become the queen, but married the regent.
Things are really unpredictable.
"Wanwan is kindhearted." Queen Mother Li said with a smile, "Well, you are lucky today. You met the Regent Princess."
The maid kowtowed to Chi Tingwan immediately, "Thank you, Princess, for your mercy! Thank you, Princess, for your mercy!"
The maid spilled the wine on purpose, so that her seriously ill mother could get the final treatment. Although she knew that she would be beaten, she felt it was worth it.
But what she didn't expect was that Banzi would just waive it like that.
No wonder so many people in the palace always praise the Regent Princess.
If it were any of the concubines in the palace, she would have been beaten half to death.
She knew a little about the secret methods in the palace. This time, Chi Tingwan helped her out, and she was grateful, so she couldn't help but secretly remind her a few times.
After hearing the little palace maid's voice as thin as a mosquito, Chi Tingwan was surprised. She was not surprised that someone wanted to harm her, but she was surprised that this little palace maid was willing to risk her life to remind her.
If this matter is investigated further, both the maid and her family will be in trouble.
"Although it's summer, it's still inconvenient to have a wet dress. Go downstairs and change into something every night."
Chi Tingwan smiled faintly and said, "Okay."
The people she brought with her were Su Yishu and Su Hua. One of them was good at medicine and the other was good at martial arts. It was safer to have them around. As for Doukou and Peilan, she sent them to find Song Shiyan.
A palace maid led Chi Tingwan to change clothes, "Princess, please come this way."
The maid holding the lantern complained in her heart, isn't this regent princess too vigilant? She even needs to bring two maids with her to change her clothes. With these two maids following her, many things are inconvenient to do.
After arriving at Xuanshi Hall, the maid tried her best to get Su Shu and Su Hua away. But they said that the princess needed someone to help her change her clothes. They confiscated any benefits from the other party and rejected any possibility of the other party trying to establish a relationship with them.
The palace maid clutched the jade bracelet in her hand, turning around in panic.
The people will be brought in later. It's obvious that these two maids are not easy to fool. The incense inside has been placed in advance and has started to burn. If the master and the servants are all poisoned, this matter will definitely be thoroughly investigated. By then, it will be the end.
Their Concubine Shu wanted to make Chi Tingwan and Young Marquis Duan from Yong'an Marquis's Mansion get together. Young Marquis Duan had always had feelings for Chi Tingwan. If this was made public, it would mean that the two had been having an affair.
The credibility of the matter is very high. In order to cover up the scandal, the royal family must find a way to cover it up. This means that the matter cannot be traced to them at all. At that time, only the internal circle will know about the scandal between the Regent Princess and Young Marquis Duan.
The regent was cuckolded, and he would definitely be angry and divorce Chi Tingwan. The emperor would no longer like such a fickle woman.
Even if the young marquis wanted to marry her, Marquis Yong'an would not agree.
By then, what capital would a divorced woman have to be so arrogant?
But now it's all messed up.
We can't let that young marquis do that with three women at the same time...
Two of the maids seemed to be from the Prince Regent's Palace. How could they have private affairs at the same time?
Who would believe this?
As soon as she entered the palace, Su Shu quickly covered her mouth and nose. Su Hua had been with Su Shu all day, and she also smelled an unusual smell. While covering her mouth and nose, she did not forget to look for the source.
Su Shu helped cover Chi Tingwan's mouth and nose, while Su Hua went to put out the incense in the incense burner.
After extinguishing it, Su Hua hurried forward to check, "It's an aphrodisiac incense. And it will disappear without a trace after burning out." Now that it was extinguished in advance, evidence was left behind.
Su Hua's face was grim. "There was something wrong with that maid just now. She was so bold that she dared to plot against the princess."
"Princess, how are you?" Su Shu noticed that Chi Tingwan was not right. She and Su Hua reacted quickly so they didn't inhale anything. But looking at the princess's appearance, it was obvious that she had inhaled some incense.
Chi Tingwan couldn't help but frowned, "I feel a little hot and dizzy..."
"Don't worry, Princess. The amount you inhaled is not too much. You can use medicine to neutralize the drug's effects." Su Shu checked the clothes in the palace. "There is nothing wrong with the clothes. Let's help Princess change them first. It's always uncomfortable to have wet clothes."
When the change was completed, the door was pushed open.
"My Lord, please slow down..."
Su Shu and Su Hua immediately became alert. Su Hua quickly jumped to the door, "Who is so bold!"
The servant was startled. "No offense. I am from the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and this is our young Marquis Duan. Our Marquis got drunk, and heard that we could rest here, so we came. I never thought there would be someone in the palace."
"Now that you know, why don't you retreat immediately!"
Seeing Su Hua speaking so harshly, the servant felt a little unhappy. "We are indeed offensive by trespassing here, but we did not offend you on purpose. Why would we do this on purpose..."
"The inner palace is our regent princess. Do you know what it is to offend the princess?!"
The servant was shocked. The person in the palace was actually the Regent Princess?
Yes. Just now a maid accidentally soiled the dress of the Regent Princess. I guess the Regent Princess came here to change clothes.
The servant had been in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion for many years and had seen many dirty things. He had not thought about it carefully before, but now he was really terrified when he thought about it carefully.
Their young marquis has always had a good alcohol tolerance, but today he got so drunk for no apparent reason.
The palace maid led them to the place where the Regent Princess changed her dress.
What is the intention behind this?
Everyone in the capital knows that their Lord Marquis has feelings for Miss Chi. What would happen if this was misunderstood?
After figuring out the key, the servant was shocked and broke into a cold sweat. He hurriedly carried his master out. But just as he walked out of the gate of Xuanshi Hall, he heard a chaotic sound of footsteps.
"Who's that in front?!" It was the imperial guards patrolling the palace.
The servant directly showed the token of Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, "Our Marquis is drunk and wants to find a place to rest. A palace servant just led us here. But after we went in, we found the maid of the Regent Princess guarding the door. I think the palace servant didn't know the situation and gave us the wrong way."
"So you are from the Yong'an Marquis's mansion. The person who showed you the way definitely has bad intentions. Going further ahead is the residence of the concubines in the harem. The Xuanshi Hall was also where concubines lived before. This is not the place for you. I received the favor of the Yong'an Marquis in the early years. Now that we have bumped into him, let us escort the young marquis to rest."
The servant smiled instantly, "Thank you for your help."
Song Shiyan had already learned from the secret agents in the palace that Chi Tingwan was being plotted against, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes when he looked at Song Xuanchu. He had thought that his nephew was truly affectionate towards Chi Tingwan.
Now, just because of some rumors, he did such a despicable thing.
Song Shiyan continued to make moves calmly, and after a moment he smiled, "Your Majesty, you lose again."
"Uncle Emperor is an excellent chess player. I need to continue to hone my skills."
"It's almost time. I promised the princess today that I would accompany her out of the palace early to go to the market. Let's go down here first." Song Shiyan looked at Song Xuanchu's expression nonchalantly.
His nephew was still too young to keep his composure, and his expression changed immediately.
"I never expected that the relationship between the Emperor's uncle and the Princess would be so good."
"Your Majesty is always so reserved. Is it difficult to pronounce the title of Imperial Aunt?" Song Shiyan's smile gradually faded.
Song Xuanchu smiled unnaturally, "It's my fault. I always find it hard to adapt to the fact that my uncle is getting married. Since my uncle has agreed to my aunt's, then go quickly. We can drink and play chess together another day."
Song Shiyan turned and walked towards the Taiji Hall, with Qin Che following behind him.
"How is the princess now?"
Qin Che scratched his head. "The princess has always asked Su Shu and Su Hua to accompany her, so I don't think anything will happen."
"Have you found out who ordered this?"
"It was Concubine Yun Shu." Qin Che's eyes were full of disdain. "How could a mere concubine have the guts to plot such a thing? The Queen Mother and the Emperor are probably aware of it. The Emperor usually pretends to be affectionate. I was almost fooled by him."
"Have they all been arrested?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We have captured the palace guards who were ordered by Concubine Yun Shu. Now we are just waiting for Your Majesty's instructions."
Song Shiyan said expressionlessly, "She must be anxiously waiting for the result. If so, how can we not do what she wants? I don't think you need me to teach you what to do."
Qin Che immediately understood, "I understand!"
Song Shiyan went straight into the Taiji Hall. He was stunned for a moment when he saw that there was no one sitting in the seat where Chi Tingwan was originally sitting. He couldn't help but ask the palace servants about the specific situation.
Concubine Yun Shu couldn't help but laugh in her heart. This regent prince really loves Chi Tingwan.
It's a pity that your princess will soon become a fallen woman. At that moment, I want to see if you can still be so affectionate.
Soon Hongxiu came back and whispered something to Concubine Yun Shu.
Concubine Yun Shu was overjoyed. Things were going even better than she had imagined. Immersed in joy, Concubine Yun Shu did not notice Hong Xiu's trembling legs.
Although the matter had been settled, Concubine Yun Shu was still worried that something might happen. She planned to go and take a look in person first.
The emperor hadn't come back yet, and the queen mother was happily chatting with the palace maids around her. Concubine Yun Shu took this opportunity to sneak out.
Empress Dowager Li glanced at Concubine Yun's back as she left, and her smile deepened. It seems that Concubine Yun has succeeded. In this case, I don't mind adding fuel to the fire.
Xie Qianyu couldn't help but frown, "It's okay that Hongxiu beside Concubine Shu comes and goes in a hurry. But why is Concubine Shu herself so weird?"
"This... maybe something happened in Concubine Yun Shu's Changxin Palace?"
"There's a problem. Send someone to keep an eye on her. Otherwise, she might make trouble again."
