Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 264 The princess is invited

Chapter 264 The princess is invited
What Concubine Cui was worried about was exactly what Xie Wanqing was worried about. Mrs. Cui's heart was devoted to Dashun, and the Cui family was full of loyalty and goodness. If this matter was stained, it might not be what she wanted.

Even though supporting King Jing is out of "justice", the world doesn't think so. The reputation of His Highness the Crown Prince has been ruined in the south of the Yangtze River, but he is still the crown prince who is firmly in the East Palace. If King Jing gains power in the future, the world will see It's just a power seeker.

After talking with Concubine Cui in detail, Xie Wanqing realized that what they have to do now is not to win over many favorable forces, but to find ways to force the princes to betray their relatives, and force the emperor to take the initiative to abolish the prince. However, King Jing is the only one with outstanding talents and strategies, and he has no choice at all as the emperor.

At the time of the world, King Jing was on the throne, and his name was justified. Only in this way can everyone respond to everyone.

"Wan'er, don't blame your aunt, and you must not annoy your grandmother... With your grandmother's temperament, I'm afraid that the emperor would rather have the family ransacked and wiped out than disregard the reputation of the Cui family." Concubine Cui stared, feeling slightly moved I'm sorry, she knows that Xie Wanqing's heart is also for the Cui family's sake, and the Cui family can only accept this kindness.

Xie Wanqing didn't force her too much. Concubine Cui Gui's many words were enough to convince her that the Cui family would definitely support him when he became King Rijing, but now...

Perhaps the Cui family will still uphold Zhongzheng and be impartial towards Dashun towards the emperor.

When Xie Wanqing left Concubine Cui's bedroom, a gloomy look flashed across her face, and she was spotted by the sharp-eyed Princess Xian'an, who hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Wan'er, what did you say to Concubine Gui? Doesn't look too happy?"

Xie Wanqing sighed deeply, Xian'an might not be able to understand what she was thinking, the Tang Palace has always avoided the world, and Xian'an would not have those unnecessary troubles since she was a child. Sometimes, Xie Wanqing really Some are envious of Xian'an, who live freely and unrestrainedly, dare to love and hate.

"Where do you see that I'm not happy?" Xie Wanqing squinted her eyes, immediately changed her expression, pulled the sleeve of Princess Xian'an with her backhand, and said, "It's you, how have you and your brother been doing these days?" ?”

Speaking of this, Xian'an immediately blushed and buried his head, "It's fine, why did you get involved with me again, you must have done it on purpose... I don't know what whispers you said to the imperial concubine that I can't let me know. You still want to make fun of me now, you little girl, when did you become so thoughtful?"

The two frolicked all the way along the palace road, suddenly, Xian'an bumped into something on his back, he was stunned suddenly, turned his head and said angrily: "What kind of slave with no eyes..."

Xie Wanqing raised her eyes and looked over the shoulder of Princess Xian'an, only to see several eunuchs standing in front of them, surrounded by a palace lady dressed in pink palace attire, the palace maid stared directly at Xie Wanqing, and Directly ignore Xian'an Princess.

"She is Qiushui next to the eldest princess." Xie Wanqing said in the ear of Princess Xian'an.

"Princess?" Xian'an was depressed for a while, before Xian'an finished speaking, Qiu Shui interrupted her, sneered at Xie Wanqing twice, then stiffly bowed to Xian'an and said: "Princess Xian'an Be polite!" After saying that, she went straight to Xie Wanqing, looked at Xie Wanqing closely and said, "Miss Xie, my princess invites you to Zhaoyang Palace to have a talk!"

Xie Wanqing felt chills in her heart, Qiu Shui's high-spirited appearance made her feel uncomfortable, and calling her "Miss Xie" would be a great difficulty for her.

And the eldest princess suddenly summoned her to Zhaoyang Palace for a talk, maybe it was not just as simple as drinking tea and chatting...

Xie Wanqing knew that she didn't have much contact with the Eldest Princess Lin'an, and if she wanted to talk about grievances, it was nothing more than the divorce of the Crown Prince. But now that the candidate for the new Crown Princess has been decided, the Eldest Princess might have to make a big fuss about the past article?

"I don't know if the princess suddenly called, is there something important?" Xie Wanqing asked politely.

Qiu Shui's cold eyes turned sideways, with a sense of arrogance that dislikes Xie Wanqing's talkativeness, "Miss Xie will know when she goes with the servant, and the princess's thoughts are beyond the imagination of the servant."

Seeing Qiushui like this, even Princess Xian'an at the side knew it was not a good thing, so he suggested: "Remembering, I haven't had a good talk with the eldest princess for some days, otherwise, Wan'er and I Let's go together, and also have a drink of the good tea from the eldest princess."

Xie Wanqing glanced at Princess Xian'an gratefully, but she was sure that Qiu Shui would not let Princess Xian'an go with her, and before Qiu Shui opened her mouth, Xie Wanqing pushed: "Xian'an, you go back first, the eldest princess is not You're looking for me for tea, it's okay!"

"But late..."

"Xian'an, brother will worry about you." Xie Wanqing pressed the back of Princess Xian'an's hand, the meaning was very clear, it was to let Princess Xian'an go back to the small courtyard directly, and King Jing couldn't find her. She will definitely go to the small courtyard, Jieshi Xian'an can tell King Jing about her being left in the palace by the Eldest Princess, if the Eldest Princess has any uncontrollable behavior, King Jing has his own way to deal with it.

Princess Xian'an and Xie Wanqing didn't get to know each other overnight, there is still some tacit understanding, Xian'an left sadly in front of Qiushui, while Xie Wanqing went with Qiushui and a group of eunuchs with fierce faces Zhaoyang Hall.

At the moment Zhaoyang Hall is much more lively than Xie Wanqing imagined, besides the eldest princess, Princess Zhaohui and Xie Siru are also there.

Xie Wanqing didn't find it strange that Princess Zhaohui was here. After all, it was such a lively event, how could she be willing to be absent? It's just that Xie Siru...

Xie Wanqing said in her heart, the eldest princess has always looked down on Xie Siru and other concubines, it is really rare that she can sit together so harmoniously drinking tea and chatting.

Xie Wanqing noticed Xie Siru's bulging belly, probably because of Xie Siru's belly, thinking about it this way, it made sense.

Qiu Shui led Xie Wanqing into the inner hall, and immediately returned to the Eldest Princess, Fu Er did not know what to say to the Eldest Princess, the Eldest Princess turned cold, and waved: "Go down and have a look!"

"Yes--"

Xie Wanqing cautiously bowed to the Eldest Princess and Princess Zhaohui, and said, "Meet the Eldest Princess, Princess Zhaohui!"

Princess Zhaohui paid no attention to it, she held a small half of the pastry and turned her head to talk to Xie Siru who was beside her, but the eldest princess acted very noble and dignified, raised her hand to signal Xie Wanqing to get up, pointed to the empty seat beside her, and said, "Thank you." Miss, please!"

Xie Wanqing froze, and obediently sat down next to the eldest princess. The eldest princess was fiddling with the tea set in front of her. She was not a person who was good at making tea, maybe she was a beginner, so her technique seemed very unfamiliar, while Zhaohui on the other side When the princess and Xie Siru were talking, she would sneak a peek at Xie Wanqing from time to time, followed by a burst of snickering.

This kind of atmosphere gave Xie Wanqing a faint sense of foreboding. Even though she knew early on that there would be no good news from the eldest princess, it was just that it was hard for her to predict how the eldest princess would deal with her.

Under such a calm face, what kind of evil heart is hidden?
"Princess, this tea..." Xie Wanqing looked at the tea in front of her. The color and taste were a bit weird. The princess sneered, and said, "This tea is Lingnan tribute tea, which is rare in the world, and the total amount is only two or two. Give it all to me."

The eldest princess said calmly, showing off her respected status and weight in the emperor's heart, and Zhaohui interjected to greet her: "Emperor sister is a good fortune. Earlier, mother and concubine also wanted this tea. My younger sister went to ask father and emperor for it." Yes, father is not willing to give it at all, but gave it all to Huangjie, fortunately Huangjie is considerate, otherwise, we would not be so lucky to drink such good tea!"

Princess Zhaohui's yin and yang tone, Xie Wanqing's eccentric tone, was a bit jarring. They are not true tea lovers, but today they all gathered together to drink tea. This kind of weirdness is self-evident.

In front of the four teacups, the eldest princess filled them up one by one. Xie Wanqing kept staring at the movements of the eldest princess's hands, deliberately observing whether she was making a fuss about the tea, but she still couldn't see it. There was no clue, and the four teacups did not notice anything unusual.

More importantly, the eldest princess said: "Miss Xie, please go first!"

Xie Wanqing was taken aback for a moment, if it was said that the eldest princess had worked hard on the tea, it would be impossible for her to pick the tea cup first...

Is it too cautious, thinking too much?
Xie Wanqing picked up the cup closest to her, sniffed the fragrance of tea, and sighed: "Then I would like to thank the Eldest Princess for her kindness. Such good tea can only be drunk at the Eldest Princess!"

The Eldest Princess pulled her lips, revealing an ambiguous smile, and then held up a cup herself, and distributed the other two cups to Princess Zhaohui and Xie Siru.

Xie Siru kept his hands on his lower abdomen all the time, his complexion was a little pale, and he was not as arrogant as before, he only lowered his head to chat with Zhaohui.

Xie Wanqing thought to herself, if it was someone else, it would not be impossible for her temperament to change after having a child, but Xie Siru...

She absolutely does not believe it!
Therefore, Xie Wanqing deeply believed that the calmer the performance, the more turbulent the waves would be.

"Hey, why don't you guys drink it?" Princess Zhaohui became a little impatient, she gave Xie Wanqing a blank look and said, "Could it be that someone thought that my imperial sister poisoned this tea? Hahaha..."

Princess Zhaohui's laughter seemed very abrupt in this inner hall, "Oh, it's really... If you don't drink it, I'll drink it first!" After saying that, Princess Zhaohui took a big sip, immediately stuck out her tongue, and her expression froze for a moment. Unnaturally hideous, then returned to normal, praised: "It really is good tea... good tea..."

Xie Wanqing just thought it was funny when she saw her pretentious appearance, she was not a tea taster, she would only spoil the good tea.

"Miss Xie, the tea is getting cold!" At this time, the eldest princess suddenly reminded, Xie Wanqing looked down at the delicious tea in the cup, and took a sip. It turned sweet again, if you are not careful, you will not be able to taste the beauty of it, you will only taste the pain, no wonder Zhaohui
