Chapter 180 Seeing Flowers in the Fog
Concubine Liu Ren was also very angry during this period. Although Concubine Xian came to stay with her all day long and smiled, she felt sick and uncomfortable when she thought about the eldest grandson of the emperor in the belly of the fourth prince.

Seeing that his son still dared to take the blame, he immediately raised his hand and slapped the round table beside him, "How presumptuous! Is this your attitude when talking to me? If Liao and Jin were serious about fighting, how could they release the news in advance? It's just It’s just catching wind and shadow, haven’t you ever thought that it was designed by someone else to make you feel uneasy?”

The second prince was stunned, "The mother-in-law means the fifth emperor's younger brother..."

Concubine Liu Rengui pressed the pain between her eyebrows and said, "The news of the national war is child's play. No matter how courageous the fifth prince is, he will not dare to spread rumors at will."

The second prince was stunned again, "Non, is it the father?"

"The Emperor is getting older and the Queen has no children. The Emperor has to consider the future. Since the Emperor can let you fight with Lao Wu, why can't he do anything to add fuel to the jealousy? I have been with you since you were a child. Said, if you want to sit on that chair, you may not need to be a wise king who benefits the people and the country, but you must be a prince who understands your father's wishes." Concubine Liu Rengui sighed, her son is a smart one , but just don’t understand the emperor well enough.

The second prince never expected that this would be his father's test, but when he thought of Su Chengying's actions just now, he couldn't swallow the nausea in his heart.

It just so happened that someone came in at this time to report, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Fifth Highness, there is news from the Imperial Palace that the Emperor has just asked Manager Jingquan to inform the Princess of the Tang Dynasty about her appearance."

"Su Chengying is such a good flatterer. Even my father wants to see her." The second prince snorted coldly.

Concubine Liu Rengui waved her hand to the palace attendant who was delivering the message. After they had retreated, she looked at the second prince and said, "Compared with someone like you who plots against your siblings, Su Chengying's move of delivering medicine is exactly what the emperor wants. The emperor's move Summoning Su Chengying is also to show you that you should have a better memory."

The second prince nodded reluctantly, but felt suffocated at the thought of having to take a breath like this, so he simply found a few people to tell them to go down, and spread the news that Su Chengying was deliberately trying to please the fifth prince, and told him that Sheng must be allowed to Everyone in the Tang delegation heard it.

Soon, rumors spread in the palace.

At the same time, Su Chengying came to the main hall in front of the emperor, knelt down and said, "Long live the emperor."

Emperor Liang signaled Su Chengying to get up, and then ordered Jingquan to move a chair, and then said, "Just now, the fifth prince told me everything about yesterday, but you entered the palace early in the morning. Could it be that you are the young prince of the Duke's Mansion?" Isn’t it as serious as what the fifth prince said?”

Su Chengying lowered her eyes slightly, knowing full well that Emperor Liang had summoned her this time just under the guise of caring about Dongfang Yuebai, to test whether the Queen Mother was instigating her to deliver medicine to the Fifth Prince. After all, nothing in the palace could be hidden from the Emperor. .

"Although the young master was seriously injured, fortunately it was not fatal. It was just a skin injury. Before I entered the palace, I had ordered someone to prepare medicine to take care of me. However, as a woman, I could not come directly to the palace, so I had to wait until I entered the palace. Go and disturb the Queen for a while."

After hearing this, Emperor Liang was silent for a long time. Something seemed to flash across his eyes so fast that Su Chengying had no time to catch it. Emperor Liang had already returned to his previous majesty and indifference.

"Jingquan." Emperor Liang suddenly said, "Go down and ask the Taiyuan Hospital to select some medicinal materials to bring back to Princess Shengtang. This is my return gift for the fifth prince."

"Yes." Jingquan nodded and hurriedly retreated.

Su Chengying saw that Emperor Liang had no intention of continuing to ask questions, so she got up and left knowingly.All the way out of the imperial palace, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while, until she saw Jingquan leading a row of eunuchs hurriedly towards her, and then looked at the eunuchs holding the Su Chengying's heart trembled with all kinds of precious medicinal materials.

She knew in her heart that it was just because the Sheng Tang envoy was still there and Emperor Liang chose to return the gift in order to show that he valued her to the Sheng Tang envoy, but she really didn't expect that Emperor Liang would be so generous.

Compared with the medicinal materials she gave to the fifth prince, they were simply worse.

Su Chengying thought about what flashed across Emperor Liang's eyes just now, and felt that something was wrong, but for a moment she couldn't figure it out.

It was Zhixu who was waiting at the gate of the palace. When he saw Su Chengying coming out, he quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "I will take Her Royal Highness back to the palace."

As Zhixu finished speaking, more than a dozen servants knelt down to pay their respects. Then they lifted up the car curtains, put up the footstools, and sent Mrs. Tang away.

Such meticulous care shocked the guards at the palace gate.

Zhixu deliberately raised his voice and said, "The young master confessed that he was worried that Her Highness the Princess would enter the palace alone. Originally, he wanted to accompany her, but he was injured and could not move easily."

When Su Chengying heard that it was Dongfang Yuebai's explanation, she understood in her heart. Knowing that her thoughts had been guessed by him, she pretended to be happy and ordered as she stepped onto the carriage, "Put all the medicinal materials into the carriage. "

When she got on the carriage, all the joy and shyness on her face disappeared. She stretched out her hand to gently lift a corner of the carriage curtain and looked towards the palace behind her. Sure enough, she saw a familiar figure in the far corner.

Qin Zhangyuan waited until the carriage Su Chengying was riding in gradually disappeared at the palace gate, then walked out from the corner and walked towards the Royal Courtyard. His ears were filled with the whispers of the palace people.

Those voices were all saying that Su Chengying let the Shengtang envoys ignore it, and in order to seize the opportunity to climb high, he even gave gifts to the fifth prince in front of the Shengtang envoys. In this way, when the Shengtang envoys After the mission left, it was not known what kind of behavior Su Chengying would do to forget his ancestors and grovel.

Countless gossips kept hitting Qin Zhangyuan's ears.

Of course he didn't believe that Su Chengying was someone who could do such a thing to seek glory, but he was even more determined in his mind. In addition, what he had just seen with his own eyes was that Dongfang Yuebai personally sent someone to the palace to pick him up. , which shows the importance attached to Su Chengying.

Could it be that the eldest girl really betrayed the eldest prince and secretly fell in love with Dongfang Yuebai?
In the main hall of the Royal Courtyard, a secret guard was whispering something to Lu Zhijie.

Seeing Qin Zhangyuan enter the door, Lu Zhijie waved his hand to ward off the secret guard, and walked a few steps forward, "Someone just sent news that the second girl from the Su family wants to make an appointment with you."

Lu Zhijie said and handed over the note in his hand. It clearly stated that the appointment time was on the evening of the first day of the lunar new year, and the location was set at a teahouse on the outskirts of the city.
