Lady Changning

Chapter 115 Purple Jade Enters the Palace (1)

The prince happily returned to the East Palace, and he did not expect that the matter of recommending Zimu would go so smoothly.In fact, at that time, the emperor in the court had long appreciated Zimu. It seemed a bit overkill for a person with insight like Zimu to only be a businessman. If he could serve the court, he would become a great talent in the future.

"Seeing how happy you are, I know that the matter is likely to be completed." Xi Changning drank the scented tea specially prepared by Ming Yu.

As long as there is no one around, Helian Bao doesn't care if the prince is not a prince, he just looks for the ground and does it. She feels like a master, but fortunately the prince doesn't say anything to her temperament.He Lianbao acted on his temper.

"The main reason is that Zimu is also a talent, and my father has long liked him."

Zimu's performance in the court is indeed remarkable, if the emperor really loves him, he will definitely not let him go.Xi Changning also felt that Zimu could occupy a place in the court because of this.

"When can I see Ziyu?" The prince was happy not because of Zimu but because he could see Ziyu.

"I will speed up. But I can't start this matter, lest others will suspect my relationship with Hu Cheng. Presumably the prince also understands that forming a party in the harem for personal gain is a death penalty."

However, the queen mother is still alive now, and I have to say that the queen mother's methods are very good.

"You want Zimu to recommend it to me? Then I want to lure Zimu into the camp?" In this way, he formed a gang. I don't know if those people outside would think that he was plotting something wrong.

"The prince will not suffer."

Zimu is indeed a useful talent, if she can help Xi Changning in the palace, or help the prince, then she doesn't need to be afraid of the power of the queen mother.

The crown prince took a look at Xi Changning, and if he didn't suffer, then he was surrounded by Xi Changning's people, so what's the difference between being full of eyeliner?
"Where do you live tonight?" Xi Changning asked nonchalantly.

The prince choked on a sip of water, did she ask that on purpose?Now they are a good couple in the palace, who in the harem doesn't envy them?Is staying overnight a lie?Where are you still asking now?

"What do you mean by that? It's so generous. Is it possible that I can still go to Xi Hanxue at this juncture?"

If Xi Changning was not happy and took his little braid to Ziyu and told him, would he still be alive?
"I'm thinking for you. A bride is going to enter the palace soon, and you will forget about me. Isn't the one in the side hall dying? Don't bother with the bride when the time comes. "

"Do you really think that Ziyu is someone who can be bullied?" Don't be deceived by Ziyu's appearance, she looks like a bully, but in fact she is very clever, otherwise she wouldn't be on the boat with herself protected for so long.

"I hope so, but then again, has Xi Hanxue been too quiet recently?"

It seems that Xi Hanxue is also indifferent to the prince's eccentricity, and doesn't have any thoughts on Xi Changning's side.

"You needn't say it. The maid I placed next to her also reported that she was very peaceful. Every day she either went to her own room or walked around or went to talk to the Queen Mother."

The prince was also puzzled, if Xi Hanxue made some mistakes, he could find a way to get rid of her, but now he couldn't find any faults.

"Then let's ignore her for the time being. Ziyu's affairs are more difficult now, and it will be impossible to hide her belly after a while. Even if she comes to the harem, she will have to find someone to mess around with her belly."

Xi Changning is still more worried about Ziyu's stomach, which deviates from her plan, but it is also a good thing, if it is unavoidable, then find a way to rationalize it for her.

"Chang Ning, I was the one who wrongly blamed you for this incident. And thank you."

The prince's eyes were full of seriousness, holding Xi Changning's hand, the warm feeling made Xi Changning slightly taken aback.

Such a young man full of love, even the light in his eyes is so warm, even if the love does not belong to Xi Changning, even Xi Changning is a little longing for it, but unfortunately he is a person that no one dares to touch.

"Prince, now that you know Ziyu's identity, I still hope you can act as if nothing happened, and don't go looking for Ziyu."

A small leak will sink a great ship.

Hefu Palace

The Empress Dowager sat on the Feng seat, with Xi Hanxue and Jiang Miaoer sitting beside her.If they hadn't raised some doubts, no one would have thought that Xi Changning would have had an affair with Zimu, the lord of Hucheng.It was quite a shock.

When Xi Hanxue heard the queen mother tell them the news about her inquiry, she couldn't believe that Xi Changning had hooked up with Zimu, the young master of Hucheng Zifu, and the palace and the three The prince is entangled, but she wants to see if Xi Changning has the ability to put aside these relationships.

No wonder she was turned away when she went to invite Zimu, it must be Xi Changning's intention, right?Embarrass her, don't blame her for embarrassing her.Now with this clue, as long as there is any movement between Xi Changning and Zimu, she will not let Xi Changning go.

"How come I don't know what you two are thinking? But the palace must know how to restrain itself, but for Xi Changning, you can do it yourself, otherwise this girl will really think of herself as a treasure."

Xi Hanxue and Jiang Miaoer looked at each other and smiled. The queen mother agreed with them to deal with Xi Changning, and with the support of the queen mother, what else is there to be afraid of?

"Then our sisters will thank the Empress Dowager."

"Xi Changning is one thing, and another is that your stomach must be faster than Xi Changning and Xi Lingyan."

The Empress Dowager has always been thinking about the stomachs of these two people. Although they have only been married for a short time, the main family members are all enemies, so why not act quickly?

This time, when it comes to difficulties, Xi Hanxue is the most difficult one, the crown prince has not entered her bedroom until now, how can I make my stomach feel better?At any rate, the third prince knew that Jiang Miaoer was exposed to both rain and dew, so the prince completely ignored her feelings and stayed overnight at Xi Changning's place every day.

Jiang Miaoer glanced at Xi Hanxue, wondering if she should tell the Queen Mother about the prince and Xi Hanxue, but she thought, this matter has nothing to do with her, don't Xi Hanxue think that she is laughing at her, and maybe stab her in the back .The Empress Dowager still has this idea, and sooner or later she will know it herself, and she will just read the jokes when the time comes.

The weather is good on this day, maybe people are in a good mood.He Lianbao felt that it was boring for Xi Changning to stay in the East Palace every day, so he teamed up with Mingyu to drag her out for a stroll.

But by chance, he ran into the empress, and there was another person beside her, Mrs. Si Qing.This can't help but remind Xi Changning of He Lianbao's discovery in Zhongcui Palace that Master Si Qing was also paying attention to Concubine Zhao's every move.

"See Queen Mother."

Both Xi Changning and the queen understand that the palace has eyes and ears everywhere, so the two of them have always played the role of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who have a good relationship, and there are very few other contacts.

"It's good to go out for a walk."

After all, the queen glanced at Si Qing, and Si Qing understood.

"See Crown Princess, the two ladies continue, Si Qing will leave first."

Obviously there was something he didn't want Xi Changning to hear, Xi Changning smiled and said nothing.

"Changning, I know that you are very curious about things you don't know, but some things are better for you not to know."

The queen took Xi Changning's hand and said kindly.There were not many words, but the general meaning was very clear. She knew that Xi Changning was looking for Gu Hongyi, so she hoped that Xi Changning would stop looking.

"My mother, Chang Ning has such a temper. But whoever treats me well, Chang Ning will remember."

Xi Changning also told the empress empress very clearly that she will deal with this matter until the end and will not involve the queen's interests.But she will continue to investigate as always, maybe then Huangfu Zimian will not escape.

"You. Now that you know so much, you really don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. I hope all of this can be passed safely. I don't want that person to appear like this, so that her beauty will be lost. Sometimes dead people are better than alive People are perfect."

The queen probably refers to Gu Hongyi's madness. Although Gu Hongyi is taboo in the palace, it is not difficult to hear the beauty of the past in the limited words.There is nothing wrong with the empress defending her younger sister, so what the emperor thought of was that the beautiful Gu Hongyi would always be more perfect than a living lunatic.

"Then why did the empress want me to see her?" Xi Changning asked in a low voice.

Originally, Gu Hongyi was hidden by the empress on an abandoned island. There were places where guilty court ladies died of old age, sickness, and death. No one would want to go there.Why did she want to meet Gu Hongyi?In the past, Xi Changning thought it was Si Qing's unintentional, but now that he thinks about it, it should be the Queen's deliberate arrangement.

The queen frowned and stopped talking.As if worrying about something, and blaming herself for something, that kind of contradictory expression converged on the queen's face.

Originally, Xi Changning wanted to talk, but unfortunately, the prince and an unexpected person appeared in the distance.

"See Empress Empress and Empress Crown Princess."

Zimu, who was dressed in a navy blue robe, had indifference in his brown eyes, as if he was looking at two strangers.

"Recently, the court has been discussing you. It is my court's blessing to recommend you with the eyes of the crown prince."

"Thank you, empress, for your appreciation."

As far as Zimu is concerned, the only person he is loyal to is Xi Changning. If Xi Changning wants him to enter the court, he will enter the court, otherwise he is not willing to take this muddy water.

"It was Changning who went to Hucheng to invite you back then, do you two have friendship?"

Xi Changning clenched his hands tightly when he heard the queen's questioning so straightforwardly. Could it be that they didn't think carefully about something and let others see their flaws?
"The empress is joking. I only met the empress once. Sincerity is what I care about. I must be responsible to my people."

Zimu said this to tell the queen that Xi Hanxue and Prime Minister Xi are not sincere enough to ask for others, and on the other hand, they hope to divert attention from his relationship with Xi Changning.

The queen could see that Zimu didn't want to say anything more on this topic, but the indifference in her eyes made the queen feel a little relieved, Xi Changning was too strange, if he had something to do with Zimu, then people would be caught up.

"Then let's talk. Ben Gong will go back first."
