Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince
Chapter 45: Distorted Relationship
Banquets for the upper class are so fake, and everyone wears a mask on their face beforehand.
Qiao Shinian stood behind Wen Jiu, watching everyone's words and actions with great interest. It was a gorgeous, hypocritical feast, as if they were truly welcoming the arrival of these protons.
The first proton to come here was Wen Jiu, and his treatment was not very good.
But it did not reach the worst in Qiao Shinian's mind. She was a little confused about the expression of Lu Ping who sent them here. The man seemed to still have a youthful look.
The main reason why Wen Jiu is not in trouble now is probably because of the letter that Emperor Gao Wen wrote to Emperor Zhou, so Wen Jiu has to write a letter back home every three months.
The content consisted of just a few words, proclaiming that he was still alive and had no missing limbs.
Qiao Shinian's impression of Emperor Gao Wen was somewhat vague. The only thing that was deeply impressed was when he first met her, he stood among the concubines, princes and princesses, like the moon surrounded by stars.
Then there were those cold words, the thoughts of Emperor Gao Wen that Wen Jiuhe and she heard that night.
I wonder how long Emperor Gao Wen’s care for Wen Jiu will last?
If Emperor Gao Wen no longer pays attention to Wen Jiu, then what will happen to Wen Jiu's life?
What she was most worried about was the issue of poisoning. Whether in history or fiction, poison was always a strategy that could not be guarded against. She had no idea how far Chunxue could go, and to what extent she could protect Wen Jiu.
What should she do if Wen Jiu was poisoned?
Qiao Shinian suddenly became dazed at the banquet where everyone had different opinions.
She wanted to bring some antidotes, but when she thought about the modern situation where people have to seek medical treatment for mushroom poisoning, she immediately gave up the idea.
She still had to find support in the palace, and the person she looked for was Princess You'an, the niece of Emperor Zhou.
From Chunxue, she learned that Princess You'an had grown up without a father or mother and had lived with the Queen Mother since childhood. The Queen Mother's life was very boring, she only lived a vegetarian diet and chanted Buddhist scriptures.
She followed the advice of netizens and wanted to give Princess You'an a taste of a normal and interesting life, so when she happened to see Princess You'an curled up on the ground in pain during her first menstruation, she knew the opportunity had come.
She gave Princess Youan painkillers and let her see her daily life with Wen Jiu. She thought that Princess Youan would find her again to ask for medicine because of the pain, and then they would have a closer bond.
As a result, they only came this time, took the medicine and went back. I kept my promise and gave them milk for two months.
She felt that she had underestimated the world and the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau.
I looked down on this lady who was born and raised in ancient times even more. It turns out that novels are all lies.
Just when she was so bored that her eyes were wandering around, she suddenly seemed to discover something and looked carefully.
That location is...
A young man in a black gown would occasionally cast his gaze on Princess You'an who was standing next to Princess Yu'an. His obsessed and cautious look, his red ears, looked like a typical secret lover!
Qiao Shinian immediately perked up, looking around like a badger in a melon field. His thieving look was discovered by Wen Wenshan, who was drinking and accidentally glanced at Wen Jiu.
Wen Wenshan, who was drinking, nearly spit out the wine. After swallowing it down forcefully, he sighed helplessly that both the master and the servant were restless.
Seeing Qiao Shinian's clear, foolish and curious eyes, he wondered what kind of rumors would appear in Wen Jiu's Jingqing Hall after the banquet.
When Wen Wenshan thought of this, he couldn't help but wonder when someone as stupid and ignorant as Qiao Shinian would die.
In the deep palace, death is as common as drinking water and eating. He knows that she is protected by Wen Jiu, but Wen Jiu himself is in a difficult situation. How long can he protect Qiao Shinian?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think that Wen Jiu didn't look like a stupid person, nor did he look like a person who valued friendship. So why did he have to protect Qiao Shinian, this unstable factor?
You can't keep her by my side so that she can kill herself and harm me at any time, right?
Thinking of this, he looked at Qiao Shinian and found that Qiao Shinian had already lowered his head obediently, and the curious and inquiring look in his eyes just now had completely disappeared.
"Quite smart." He murmured in a low voice, then looked up at Mu Qingchen.
He knew that his good friend was going to leave Beijing again to investigate corruption among local officials. This was a thankless job that would offend all the officials, and it had to be done in secret without the support of the people.
He didn't understand why Mu Qingchen was so willing to do this kind of work. He could have refused, he could have declined, he could have done anything to gain both fame and fortune.
At a certain moment, Qiao Shinian felt that everyone at the banquet was becoming more and more absent-minded, and the compliments had already been said.
With the emperor's tacit approval, many young ladies from aristocratic families began to display their talents in order to find future husbands.
Qiao Shinian raised her head and cast her gaze towards the person sitting high up. This time she peeked very carefully.
The queen was like an emotionless puppet, sitting there upright, staring blankly at the singing and dancing performance in the middle.
Concubine Liu and Emperor Zhou were snuggling together, talking very close to each other, and Concubine Liu was seen laughing sweetly.
There are many princes and princesses under the emperor. Princess Yu'an is the most favored, so she sits in the seat closest to Emperor Zhou. The presence of other princes and princesses is not strong.
Qiao Shinian only felt that they looked familiar, but he had a deeper impression of the princes with whom he had met before.
Although they stood tall and straight, and spoke and laughed, when they heard that Princess Yu'an was going to perform, they all looked at her enthusiastically and somewhat flatteringly.
Qiao Shinian knew what that strange feeling between these princes and princesses was: inferiority.
In the face of absolute pampering, one feels inferior and resigned to one's fate, and subconsciously acts out flattery and compliments.
Emperor Zhou is just over 45 this year, three years younger than Emperor Gao Wen, and has inherited the throne for only twelve years, while Princess Yu'an is already eleven years old.
It can be seen how much Emperor Zhou loved Concubine Liu. After his father died, he probably started farming and sowing seeds with Concubine Liu immediately. Princess Yu'an was born in the second year after he ascended the throne. How many wise kings were there at that time?
Qiao Shinian's distracted gaze fell on Mu Qingchen, who was drinking with his eyes lowered.
Now this wise king who looks very experienced and wise is just a 19-year-old boy.
Qiao Shinian, a 21-year-old college student, straightened his chest and pride appeared in his eyes.
You are so young, why pretend to be mature?
In modern times, this age, unless he is a child prodigy who skipped grades, he would be the age of her junior.
Thinking about these complicated relationships between characters, Qiao Shinian suddenly realized something.
"Fuck, where's the prince?! The important character that often appears in novels and movies, where's the prince?! There's no prince in Chuwen Kingdom, and there's no prince in Zhou Kingdom! Is there no prince in this era? Did he get to the top by his ability?"
Qiao Shinian suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked an important position. He seemed to have never seen or heard of this prince who could legitimately become the emperor.
As he was too shocked, Qiao Shinian was afraid that his gaze would be noticed, so he lowered his head repeatedly and then brainstormed.
Thinking to no avail.
Feeling the gaze on her disappear, Mu Qingchen wanted to know how this uneducated prince taught his maid.
Although other people's eyes would fall on him, apart from Emperor Zhou, he had only seen such a naked look once so far.
