But before he could finish his words, Hongli stopped talking completely.
It's so easy to change people's hearts.
"Qingying, why would the Empress Dowager suddenly tell you this... What if Third Brother..."
"Master, my aunt didn't say much. Maybe she was just chatting for a while."
Know when to stop. If you continue talking, it might arouse the other party's suspicion.
This is enough for the other party to associate.
Qingying stopped talking, but Hongli had no intention of stopping.
"Qingying, Empress Dowager, please tell me which minister submitted this memorial?"
"Your Highness, I am but a woman in the backyard. The Empress Dowager is in the inner palace. I must have only heard the Emperor mention her occasionally. How could I possibly know which minister she was? I don't know."
Hongli frowned and squeezed Qingying's hand with a little more force.
It was obvious that the other party's heart was extremely uneasy at this moment.
"Qingying, tell me, the Empress Dowager suddenly said this, could it be..."
But before he could finish asking this question, Wang Qin's voice was heard again from outside.
Qingying patted Hongli's hand soothingly. After a moment, another court doctor named Li Li also got her approval and followed惢心 into the room.
After taking the patient's pulse, it turned out that there was nothing serious.
It was just a few words of tiredness to get rid of him.
But after this incident, Hongli no longer had any intention of going to Qionghua Courtyard.
Qingying's timely display of fatigue also gave the other party no reason to speak again.
The two men lay down, but Hongli's heart was surging with anxiety.
Why did the Queen suddenly say this to Qingying?
Now that the third brother is the queen's son, is the other party really only planning for Hongshi?
If that's the case, then I really shouldn't discuss the matter of appointing a crown prince with Qingying.
still…
The Queen had already given up hope on Hongshi, so she wanted to use Qingying's mouth to convey some unspeakable news to herself?
Hongli's mind was full of thoughts, and he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
……
But no matter what happened in Qinglan Court, several teacups had already been broken in Qionghua Court.
Fu Cha Langya's face turned ashen, she held a jade pendant tightly in her hand, her eyes full of hatred.
"She looks ordinary, and she hasn't shown any signs of being overly arrogant towards me. But I didn't expect that she's such a seductive woman in private. She's been trying to seduce the prince for two consecutive days. Does she even remember who the legitimate wife of this palace is?!"
Su Lian stood beside Fu Cha Langya, also looking angry.
But I don’t know what he was thinking about, and a strange look flashed across his eyes.
"Don't worry, Fu Jin. No matter how obsessed Concubine Jin is with the prince, the eldest son of this palace will definitely be born in our courtyard. Why should we worry about it for the time being?"
Having said this, he handed the teacup to Fucha and said, "Now that Fujin has recovered, we should strive to give birth to a little prince in the future. That will provide us with a future."
"Ulanara has been in the mansion for two days, and I've been married for three days, and we haven't even consummated our marriage yet. Am I even a decent wife? Not to mention the question of whether I'm the eldest son or not!"
As soon as Fu Cha Langya said this, tears started to fall.
Which mistress would live like me?
He let his concubine climb over his head and could do nothing!
With this said, Su Lian didn't know how to comfort her.
After a moment, Fu Cha Langya reacted herself.
"Send someone to guard the door tomorrow, and when the prince returns, invite him to Qionghua Courtyard!"
Su Lian saw that Fu Cha Langya's face looked very strange and knew that she could no longer persuade her.
I could only nod and agree without mentioning it.
But when paying respects the next morning, Qionghuayuan claimed to be ill and refrained from paying respects.
Qingying didn't care about it at all, thinking that this was just a way for the concubine to win favor.
However, when the news that the concubine had been appointed to assist in the management of the government affairs reached Qionghua Courtyard, several cups and plates were smashed in the court.
Qingying had no time to pay attention to the other party's slight annoyance.
Now that I have the government affairs in hand, I naturally have to sort out the personnel in the backyard so that I can gain a firm foothold in the future.
……
Qionghua Courtyard.
Before it was completely dark, the small kitchen in Qionghuayuan was already bustling with activity.
Today, Fucha was determined to let the prince stay overnight in Qionghua Courtyard, so naturally she had to prepare everything she could.
Before the hour of Xu, Hongli's carriage stopped outside the palace.
As soon as he stepped into the mansion, Su Lian hurried to greet him.
"This servant pays respects to the prince."
Hongli couldn't figure out who the visitor was for a moment.
Wang Qin chuckled softly and said, "Your Highness, it's Su Lian who is beside Fu Jin."
"Fujin? Sulian, what's wrong with Fujin?"
Su Lian bowed again before speaking, "Your Highness, my wife has been feeling unwell since she woke up this morning. Although she has been examined by the court physician, she has shown no improvement. She was reluctant to ask me to come and see your Highness, but seeing how distressed she is, I have decided to take over and ask your Highness to visit her at Qionghua Courtyard."
"Are you feeling unwell? Can the court doctor tell me why?"
"Your Highness, the palace doctor said that the weather has been hot recently and the Concubine is weak, which is why she feels a little unwell."
Hongli was about to speak again, but he was not a fool. After hearing this, he naturally guessed the reason why Fu Jin acted like this.
So he just waved his hand and said, "Go to Qionghua Courtyard."
Fu Jin got what she wanted.
In Qinglan Courtyard, Qingying was leaning on the couch, holding a thin booklet in her hands, reading it with great interest.
This was the list of concubines, princes, princesses and royal relatives in the palace that she asked惢心 to obtain secretly.
It looks very different from the place where I used to be in Zi'ao City.
But just by looking at these people in the open, she could probably guess some truth.
There is no need to say much about Concubine Jing, Concubine Duan and others.
An Lingrong, Shen Meizhuang...
These still familiar names made Qingying narrow her eyes slightly.
But the more she understood the situation of the princes of this dynasty, the more likely Qingying became that she could get the queen in the palace to cooperate with her and help the fourth prince ascend the throne.
After all, the Empress Dowager was doing this for the glory of the Ulanara family, so how could the Empress be free from this?
She painstakingly took the life of Concubine Qi, wasn't it just to control the Third Prince, so that he could ascend the throne and continue the honor of the Ulanara family?
Her current identity is her niece. According to A Ruo, among the Ulanara family, except for herself, there is no other woman of marriageable age who can enter the Third Prince's mansion.
At this point, to be frank, I am the only choice for the queen.
With these thoughts in her mind, Qingying leaned down again.
"惢心, it's very hot out here, please have someone add some more ice."
"Yes, master."
No need to wait until the next morning.
That night, someone came to Qionghua Courtyard and said that the concubine had recovered and would pay her respects as usual tomorrow.
Qingying just found it funny, waved her hand to send惢心 away, and went to sleep without mentioning it again.
