Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 267 Marriage Settlement, Rumors Begin

The emperor's reaction was in Xuanyuan Jue's expectation. At this moment, he clearly knew what he was about to face...

When Xie Wanqing regained consciousness, it was three days later, she was lying in Concubine Cui's bedroom, and Concubine Cui personally took care of her.

When Xie Wanqing opened her eyes and saw Concubine Cui Gui, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly recalled what happened in Zhaoyang Palace that day, and hurriedly asked, "Auntie, this is..."

Seeing that Xie Wanqing woke up, Concubine Cui gave her the medicine bowl by the bedside, and said, "Don't ask anything for now, just drink up the medicine, and then I will talk to you slowly!"

Without hesitation, Xie Wanqing picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in a few mouthfuls. The medicine juice tasted bitter, but Xie Wanqing didn't feel it.

"Wan'er, this time, it's really too dangerous." Cui Guifei said.

Xie Wanqing pressed her still aching forehead, "It's the eldest princess... It's the eldest princess who tampered with the tea."

"Yes!" Concubine Cui sighed, "Everyone knows that Lin'an designed you, but the emperor doesn't want to go into it... No one can say anything more about it."

"But Wan'er is not reconciled!" Xie Wanqing clenched her fists, "She shouldn't even design Mr. Mu together!"

Xie Wanqing hates this point, the scene of Mu Rujin lying in a pool of blood suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, she raised her eyes to Concubine Cui Gui, and asked nervously: "Auntie, do you know that the eldest son of the Mu family... ...how is it now?"

"You have been in a coma for three days, and the eldest son of the Mu family was sent back to the Mu family three days ago."

"Three days?" Xie Wanqing was a little surprised, "Then these three days..." She still remembered that before she fainted, it was Xuanyuan Jue who was holding her. At that time, he faced so many people alone, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

At this moment, Xian'an pulled Cui Wenxiao in from the outside, bowed and bowed to Concubine Cui, then impatiently moved to Xie Wanqing's bedside, hugged her and said, "Wan'er, you're awake!"

Princess Xian'an couldn't hide the smile on her lips, and even Cui Wenxiao smiled. Xie Wanqing couldn't help being curious, and asked, "Why are you all so happy? Did something good happen?"

"Of course it's a good thing!" Princess Xian'an jumped in front of Cui Wenxiao and said, "Look at what that is?"

Xian'an pointed to Su Wen who came in dragging the tray, and Xie Wanqing looked in the direction of her finger——

"The red...wedding dress?" Xie Wanqing was startled, "Xiao Shu, are you going to marry your brother?"

Cui Wenxiao finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Wan'er, what should I say about you? You've always been smart, why are you so confused now? Take a closer look at this wedding dress. Whose size is it?" ?”

Cui Wenxiao picked up the clothes and compared them. Xian'an's figure was smaller than Xie Wanqing's, obviously wearing this dress was too loose, and the size of the wedding dress was clearly Xie Wanqing's.

Xie Wanqing pointed to herself in disbelief, "Mine?"

"Of course it's yours!" Xian'an grinned, "Otherwise, who else do you think can get into King Jing's eyes? It's spread throughout the palace that His Royal Highness King Jing insists on marrying you alone as his concubine, Your Majesty. Are the two side concubines who were rewarded outside all pushed?"

Xie Wanqing didn't seem to be able to react for a while, and Concubine Cui couldn't stand it anymore, and explained: "Wan'er, you don't have to doubt, what they said is true, the emperor has ordered a marriage, and you are about to marry into Jing Wangfu, the wedding date...is set at the beginning of next month."

However, when Concubine Cui Gui said these things, she was obviously not as excited as Princess Xian'an and Cui Wenxiao, but she was hiding a little worry, which happened to fall into Xie Wanqing's eyes.

"aunt?"

Concubine Cui Gui sighed, and ordered: "Wen Xiao, you and Xian'an go outside first, I still have a few words to explain to Wan'er."

Xian'an pursed her lips, Cui Wenxiao pulled her out knowingly, and when she was leaving, Xian'an was still muttering: "I don't know what to whisper to Wan'er, the imperial concubine, we don't want us to know!"

"Oh!" Cui Wenxiao pushed Xian'an out, "Let's hurry up and help think about what we need to prepare for the wedding banquet!"

Only Xie Wanqing and Concubine Cui were left in the dormitory at this time, Concubine Cui's complexion became more serious, Xie Wanqing bit her half-white lower lip, and said, "Auntie, what are you worried about?"

"Wan'er, do you know why the emperor allowed your marriage with King Jing?"

Xie Wanqing shook her head: "Wan'er doesn't know, but Wan'er is sure, there must have been a lot of twists and turns."

"Yes." Concubine Cui said: "I heard that King Jing knelt and begged for four hours in a row in the upper study before the emperor agreed to see him, and..." Concubine Cui paused, and then said: "The emperor wants King Jing to act on behalf of the heavens." Hunting!"

Xie Wanqing bit her lower lip violently, bleeding out, "He agreed!"

"Yes, he agreed. If not, how could the emperor give the marriage so easily?"

Xie Wanqing fell on the head of the bed, conspiracy, another conspiracy!
Hunting on behalf of the sky is an honor that others can't dream of, but it looks glamorous, but it will attract endless murderous opportunities.

Xie Wanqing fully understood the emperor's plan. The emperor just wanted to use King Jing as a target, so as to provoke disputes among the kings, put King Jing in the target of public criticism, and kill people with a knife, so as to eradicate the threat of King Jing for the prince effortlessly.

"Thinking about it, King Jing also understands the consequences of this matter, hey..." Concubine Cui sighed, "He is actually infatuated with you, but how long will your marriage last... I really dare not think about it."

"Auntie, don't worry, Wan'er trusts him, he will definitely protect Wan'er well, as for the dangers ahead, Wan'er is not afraid!" Xie Wanqing said firmly, it's not that she doesn't know the emperor's decision, she just knows, They can't back down even more. This road, if you fight to the death, you may still have a glimmer of life, but if you make compromises, there is only one dead end!
After learning that the emperor bestowed the marriage, Mrs. Cui quickly arranged for someone to take Xie Wanqing back to the Cui family, and took all of Xie Wanqing's dowry.

Xie Wanqing hadn't seen Xuanyuan Jue for several days, and was pulled by her grandmother all day long. It is said that she would never see King Jing before the big wedding.

Suwen and Lingshu try different ways to please Xie Wanqing, Xian'an and Cui Wenxiao also come to accompany her all day long to amuse her, and the days are quite leisurely.

However, being confined in this vast courtyard, Xie Wanqing always felt that the people around her were deliberately hiding something from her, because the days were so peaceful that it made her feel uneasy.

"Spiritual pivot?" Xie Wanqing finally couldn't bear it anymore, pulled Lingshu into the room, closed the door and asked, "Tell me, is something going on outside? You all look at me all day, just because you don't want to let me go." I'm in contact with the outside, tell me, what's going on outside?"

"Miss..." Lingshu couldn't keep his words in his heart, and he was very uncomfortable these days, when asked by Xie Wanqing, all his brains came out.

"Miss, I don't dare to hide it from you. It's all rumored outside... It's all rumored. Miss, you...you have been in touch with King Jing for a long time. It's very shameless!"

"Heh!" Xie Wanqing sneered, "Is that all?"

"It's much uglier than what the servants said!" Lingshu frowned, "Miss, don't take it to heart. After a while, these rumors will no longer exist."

"No, I can't control other people's tongues. They like to say don't let him talk, but...some people, I will never let them go!" Shu said: "Lingshu, go secretly to see King Jing and give him a word for me!"

"That's not a problem, miss, you said, the servant will definitely bring it to you."

Xie Wanqing pressed her fingers lightly on the table and said calmly: "Let the prince find someone named Chu Wenyu, he will naturally understand what I mean!"

"it is good!"

Early the next morning, Qiu Shui took a letter and handed it to the eldest princess, "Princess, it's a letter from Mr. Chu!"

The eldest princess was drinking tea, she casually spread out the letter and glanced at it, her face flushed suddenly, thinking, she might not have seen Chu Wenyu for a long time.

"How many days will it take for the son-in-law to return to Beijing?" the eldest princess asked.

Qiu Shui thought for a while, gestured three fingers, and said, "Princess, don't worry, the son-in-law will take three days at the earliest to enter Beijing!"

"Then you can arrange it!" The eldest princess raised the letter in her hand.

Qiu Shui nodded: "Princess, are you still at the old place?"

"No, take him to the princess mansion!"

"Princess Mansion? Will it be too ostentatious, what if..." Qiu Shui didn't say any more, the eldest princess glared at her coldly, and reprimanded: "If you can't even bring a person into the mansion without anyone noticing, What use do I need you for?"

"Yes...Princess calm down, I will arrange it now!" Qiu Shui backed back again and again, and said timidly.

The eldest princess sat back in front of the makeup mirror, stroked her cheeks, her cheeks were hot, what the concubine could not give her, fortunately there was Chu Wenyu.

At night, in Lin'an Princess Mansion, the Eldest Princess carefully got off the sedan chair wearing a cloak, and sent all the attendants outside.

Going around the corridors, I came to the outside of the small courtyard deep in the crabapple flowers. There were two crimson lanterns hanging in the courtyard, swaying under the night.

The eldest princess stepped in, the door suddenly opened wide, and a familiar quiet air came from her breath, the eldest princess lightened and was carried in by someone.

There was no light in the room, and the hot faces of the two were pressed together, and Chu Wenyu's familiar voice was heard next to their ears, "The princess came so late, I really miss it."

While talking, they tore each other's clothes, like a long drought meeting sweet rain, and the two quickly rubbed against each other.

However, the matter was only halfway through, when suddenly the candles in the room were brightly lit, the eldest princess was startled, Chu Wenyu calmly left the eldest princess's body, gathered the long gown on her body, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth, And just behind the screen, a person quietly walked out——

It's really the eldest son-in-law who is said to be returning to Beijing in three days.

The son-in-law has a handsome face, but he is a martial artist after all. He has always accommodated the princess's temper, but he may not be able to tolerate the princess giving him a cuckold.

"Consort?" The eldest princess hugged the silk quilt and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
