Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Chapter 344 The Cannon Fodder Who Suffered the Massacre of His Family (51)

The old woman who brought the key had already left. As she left, she vaguely heard the conversation inside and sighed inwardly, wondering if their prince had ever treated a woman like this before.

Moreover, the keys to the manor's storeroom should, in principle, be handed over to the future princess. Your Highness has given them to this young lady, which means you are treating her as the future princess.

Gao Yan had no idea what the old woman was thinking. He reached out and touched Qi Ning's hair: "It's getting late today, so you can go to the storeroom tomorrow."

"it is good."

Qi Ning accepted it without hesitation.

She smiled and leaned in to give Gao Yan a light kiss on the cheek.

Gao Yan was stunned. He looked at Qi Ning, his eyes filled with emotion.

He originally thought that Qi Ning would resent him and be unwilling to get close to him, since it was he who forced them to be together.

But she actually kissed him first.

Even if it's just because of the storeroom key, it at least shows that she doesn't reject him anymore, doesn't it?

If he had known she liked these things, he would have given them to her sooner.

Qi Ning saw Gao Yan staring at her blankly, looking completely puzzled.

She just kissed Gao Yan on a whim, why is she staring at her for so long?

"Why are you looking at me like that..."

Before Qi Ning could finish speaking, Gao Yan leaned over and kissed her.

Since returning from Songshan Palace, Gao Yan has kept his distance from Qi Ning in order to carry out their plans.

This was quite painful for a man who had just experienced the pleasures of sex.

Qi Ning was right in front of Gao Yan at that moment, and she even took the initiative to kiss him. How could he possibly restrain himself?

Seeing the lust in Gao Yan's eyes, Qi Ning chuckled and dodged left and right, saying indistinctly, "Wait... wait until I put the warehouse key away."

Gao Yan took the key directly, threw it accurately onto the dressing table by the window, and then kissed Qi Ning.

The next day.

Qi Ning slept in late and didn't get up until almost noon.

She was served lunch, then took her maid to the storeroom and picked out some things.

Gao Yan was not at home, but had gone to the palace.

When he returned home that evening, he saw Qi Ning fiddling with the jewelry she had picked out from the storeroom.

Gao Yan stood at the doorway, looking at her with a slight smile in his eyes.

Qi Ning looked up at him and asked, "You're back?"

"Ah."

Gao Yan then walked in, stood behind Qi Ning, and looked at her in the mirror.

"You went to the palace today. How was it there?"

Gao Yan entered the palace today to find out the situation inside, especially the emperor's attitude.

"Everything went smoothly. No one noticed that you left the palace, so you can rest assured. Right now, the Jiang family's affairs are causing quite a stir, so Father Emperor won't go to your palace at this time. Even if he wanted to see you, he would be entangled by Consort Lin and Consort Li."

"Oh."

Qi Ning nodded, took the jewelry she was trying on off her hair, and sat down on the small couch with her long black hair draped over her shoulders.

Gao Yan followed her over and sat down beside her, then said, "In addition, the date for the Jiang family's execution has been set for next month."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ning immediately raised her head and exchanged a glance with Gao Yan.

“Jiang Weilan certainly wouldn’t stand by and watch her parents be executed, but Gao Yun might not be so. The Jiang family is no longer of any use to him. Surely Gao Yun wouldn’t risk doing something just because Jiang Jingzhou is his father-in-law?”

Gao Yan nodded slightly: "If it were only for the sake of the Jiang family, Gao Yun certainly wouldn't do that. But what if there are other factors involved?"

"What do you mean?" Qi Ning asked, leaning closer to Gao Yan.

Gao Yan smiled, pulled Qi Ning into his arms, and whispered in her ear, "I've leaked the news from outside to the Third Prince."

"Third Prince?"

“That’s right. My third brother, even though he’s been imprisoned for years, has never given up and has been waiting for an opportunity.”

"So you passed on the news of Gao Yun's imprisonment to him, which makes it very likely that the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince are conspiring to rebel?"

Gao Yan reached out and gently pinched the tip of Qi Ning's nose, praising, "Intelligent."

Gao Yan not only revealed Gao Yun's information to the Third Prince, but also deliberately shielded them from the Emperor's surveillance so that they could communicate easily without being discovered.

Qi Ning chuckled: "Even if the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince succeed in their conspiracy to rebel, won't they fight over the spoils? After all, there can only be one throne, so who will sit on it?"

"That's a problem after they succeed," Gao Yan said calmly. "For them, it's better for whoever sits in that position than for them to be imprisoned for life."

Qi Ning nodded slightly: "That's true."

She glanced at Gao Yan: "Your plan is not bad. Regardless of whether the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince succeed in their rebellion or not, it will benefit you. You are trying to make the snipe and the clam fight while the fisherman benefits."

Gao Yan did not deny it. He stroked Qi Ning's hair and said, "Let's wait and see if they make a move."

Qi Ning thought so too. She didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and even had the mind to tinker with needlework. Anyway, she couldn't go anywhere except the Prince's Mansion.

A few days later, the system suddenly told Qi Ning: "Host, Gao Yun is planning to make a move."

"Is that so?" Qi Ning stopped the needle in her hand.

The system said, "Originally, Gao Yun did not plan to take action so soon. Even though Jiang Weilan cried and begged Gao Yun every day because the Jiang family was about to be executed, Gao Yun did not want to take any risks."

"But after contacting the Third Prince, Gao Yun changed his mind. They believed that since Gao Yun had only been imprisoned for a short time, the Emperor would not be too wary of them, making it the most opportune time to take action. So they planned to launch a surprise attack and join forces to rebel."

"Okay, great."

Qi Ning was very satisfied.

Meanwhile, Gao Yan sent people to closely monitor Gao Yun and the Third Prince's movements, and soon received the news as well.

That afternoon, he hurried back to the manor, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he asked, "Where is your master?"

The maidservant standing outside replied with a smile, "Your Highness, the mistress is making clothes for you inside."

Upon hearing this, Gao Yan paused in his tracks.

Qi Ning, sitting inside the house, was speechless upon hearing the conversation outside.

She was indeed making clothes, and when the maid asked, she casually said it was for Gao Yan. Who knew the maid would tell Gao Yan directly?

Gao Yan was indeed taken aback by what the maid said.

He never expected that Qi Ning would actually be making clothes for him.

Gao Yan realized what was happening and immediately went inside. Sure enough, he saw Qi Ning doing needlework.

Qi Ning put down the nearly finished garment in her hands, looked up at him and asked, "Why are you back so early today?"

Gao Yan returned earlier than usual, of course, to tell Qi Ning about the news from Gao Yun and the Third Prince.

But as soon as he returned, he saw Qi Ning making clothes for him, and his attention was instantly diverted. He no longer remembered Gao Yun and the others.

Gao Yan couldn't hide his smile: "I heard you're making clothes for me?"

Qi Ning silently hid the clothes behind her back.

She feigned ignorance: "What clothes?"
