Concubine Jinghua: The black-bellied prince, please stay here

Chapter 294 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
In the east courtyard of Fengwang Mansion, Zuo Lanying waited for a long while but did not get a reply from her own person, and was anxious to take a look at Yuxiu.But as soon as he stepped out of the door, he received a solid slap. "Who dares to hit me?" Feng Fu raised his eyes angrily, but saw that the person who came was Fang Chuchu, the current Crown Princess.

Zuo Lanying was taken aback for a moment, what did Fang Chuchu come to the palace for such a heavy rain, the princess consort facilitated her marriage at the beginning, she thought she was on her side, but looking at it today, it doesn't seem to be the case.

Pretending to be wronged is sometimes a skill, Zuo Lanying's phoenix eyes actually shed tears in just a few seconds after seeing the person coming. "I am terrified. I don't know what I did wrong to make the Crown Princess so angry. If I hurt the Crown Princess' body, I will be really guilty."

Fang Chuchu sneered when she heard the words, and she didn't want to go around with her any more, "I have already let that Imperial Doctor Chen enter the palace to plead guilty. As for Princess Feng, what do you think I should do?"

When Zuo Lanying heard that his accomplice had been arrested, his legs became weak. Old Chen was originally a villain who was greedy for money and profit, and he was the most cowardly. "Prince Princess saved me, I don't want to die, I...I just want to teach Yuxiu a lesson."

After being exposed, Zuo Lanying lowered her figure and crawled at Fang Chuchu's feet.However, the unbowed head still showed the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Save you?" Fang Chuchu smiled, straightened her back, and looked down at Zuo Lanying who was kneeling at her feet, "Why does Princess Feng condescend so much, even her noble head has never been lowered, how can I believe that you are Do you really know your mistake and ask me for help?"

Fang Chuchu said impatiently: "In this case, follow me into the palace to meet the royal father. You know that murdering the blood of the royal family is a crime of beheading. But I think the father thinks that your father is the prime minister. For the sake of being a pillar of the country, I should be kinder to you."

"Father?" Zuo Lanying is also an extremely clever master. She could hear the meaning of Fang Chuchu's words in a few words. If you offend me, I will apologize to you on behalf of my father."

"I don't dare to accept it. Your father is the left minister of the court, and the right minister is in charge of the affairs of the court. It is the people of my palace who are useless. If I make the left minister unhappy, I should make amends."

It was only recently that Fang Chuchu found out that Prime Minister Zuo saw Ye Linfeng and Zuo Lanying's husband and wife loving each other, and thought that he could abandon her, the person who made the match in the first place.He was actually wearing small shoes behind his back, secretly reminding Emperor Jiahe that Yan Ning belonged to the concubine and not the prince. Emperor Jiahe demoted Yan Ning to three ranks in a row in a rage, changing from a sixth-rank official to a ninth-rank official The sesame official was also transferred from the Ministry of Officials, and was only assigned to an insignificant Ministry of Rites.

"Father is old and ignorant, so I ask the princess to speak frankly. I will go back to my mother's house and talk to my father. I will come to apologize tomorrow." Zuo Lanying and even her own wealth and life are in Fang Chuchu's hands. What entered the palace to plead guilty, but was controlled by Fang Chuchu.

This incident was trivial, after all, Yuxiu's child was saved.But if Fang Chuchu was a hindrance, Zuo Lanying knew that her family would not be able to offend Fang Chuchu, let alone His Royal Highness the Crown Prince behind her, as well as the State of Qi.

Fang Chuchu sighed and said, "You are also a smart person. We have cooperated well. Why do you have to tear things down? Do you think Ye Linfeng really likes you? He also plays with you every day because of your father's face. This drama of love. If your father falls, you should know what will happen to you, maybe worse than Yuxiu, at least she is a princess, right?"

Now that the topic has been opened, let's make it clear that Fang Chuchu is here today not only to seek justice for Yuxiu, but more importantly, to let Prime Minister Zuo know that he is not a master who can be said to be betrayed.

Zuo Lanying nodded hastily, "The concubine knows, so I'll go back to my mother's house and let my father come to apologize."

"Don't worry, it's raining and the ground is slippery. Princess Feng must not slip carelessly like Yuxiu. You don't need to apologize. Listen carefully, I only give Prime Minister Zuo three days, Ruoyan Rather than being reinstated as an official, Imperial Physician Chen will really have to apologize to Jing."

"Yes, I understand that I must let my father do things according to your wishes." Zuo Lanying kept breaking out in cold sweat on her forehead, and finally understood why her father told her to be careful of the princess, and finally understood why Yuxiu, a princess of the country, could not beat her alone. princess...

Some people, she is not ruthless, but after experiencing countless things, even if she is not ruthless, under the persecution of others, she has to be ruthless to protect herself in the troubled times.

Before leaving, Fang Chuchu looked at the frightened Zuo Lanying, a smile slowly appeared on her beautiful face, "Don't be afraid, I don't know how to eat people."

Seeing her beautiful smile, Zuo Lanying's heart was shocked. Although she didn't know how to eat people, she felt that she was more terrifying than a man-eating tiger.Comparing the two, one of them has already distinguished the superior and inferior at the moment of fear.

In the early morning of the next day, Zuo Jingzhen paid a visit, and when Yilan found out, he had already been waiting in the hall for nearly an hour.I don't know if he understands that he is wrong, or if he really respects Fang Chuchu, he didn't ask anyone to pass it on, but just sat and waited quietly.

"Left Prime Minister, wait a moment, I'll go and invite the Crown Princess to come out." Yilan also couldn't understand Zuo Prime Minister's behavior of a villain who crossed the river and demolished the bridge, so she said coldly, and then went to invite Fang Chuchu.

The whole morning, Fang Chuchu was immersed in the group of books, since Yuxiu promised her that piece of rich land, of course she couldn't waste it.It is not that simple to govern a city well, so Fang Chuchu now needs to read books, read a lot of books, sum up the experience of the predecessors, and use it for himself.

"Prince Concubine, Prime Minister Zuo is here." Seeing Fang Chuchu immersed in the sea of ​​books and unable to extricate herself, Yilan waited for a long while, and when she saw her brows were slightly frowned, she took the opportunity to speak.

It happened that she couldn't think clearly and needed to change her mood. Fang Chuchu gently put a dried plum blossom into the page she saw, closed the book, and got up, "Mr. Zuo came alone?"

Yilan nodded, "It's been more than an hour since I've been here, and the people below are really ignorant, they don't even give you a cup of tea." When talking about ignorance, Yilan couldn't help covering her mouth and started laughing.

"You ghost girl, you are the only one with lots of ghost ideas." Fang Chuchu knew that the servants in the prince's mansion were well-educated, and it was impossible for guests not to serve tea when they came. The only explanation was that Yilan did it on purpose.

"Who told him not to keep his promise." Yilan stuck out her tongue, "Crown Princess, do you really want to forgive him later?"

This question really caught Fang Chuchu's mind. Forgive me, her temper won't allow it; if you don't forgive me, she really won't be able to find a more powerful speaker than Prime Minister Zuo in the court for a while.Sighing softly, "Let's take one step at a time."

After seeing each other for a few days, Zuo Xiang got to know Fang Chuchu more deeply. He thought that no matter how powerful she is, she would not be able to shake the sky, but she never thought that she could kill his daughter with a hook of her fingers.That was his most beloved little daughter, who had been petted since childhood, how could he give up her life?

Under the balance, Prime Minister Zuo could only come to the door in person with a shy old face, in order to dispel Fang Chuchu's anger.

"You are confused, how can you not serve tea to Prime Minister Zuo? Be careful and I will deal with you later." Entering the hall, Fang Chuchu looked at Prime Minister Zuo sitting there nonchalantly, staring at her eyes, and immediately there was a witty maid serving tea up.

After so many years in the officialdom, how could Prime Minister Zuo not know that this was Fang Chuchu's blow to him, so he quickly waved his hand, "I'm not thirsty, and I didn't come here today to drink tea." After finishing speaking, he looked at only a few people in the hall , simply fell to his knees with a plop.

"The old minister was confused for a while and did something wrong. He even asked the princess to show her noble hand and spare the little girl's life."

There are too many people kneeling towards Fang Chuchu these days, listening to the louder kneeling sound, they feel pain for Fang Chuchu if they don't feel pain.With a sigh, she motioned to Yilan who was beside her to support Zuo Xiang up, "Why is Zuo Xiang doing this? If we have something to say, let's talk it over. If you kneel down to me, I don't know how many people will want to hear it. Gossip about me."

Zuo Xiang lowered his head in shame, today's rumors about Fang Chuchu came from himself, he told Emperor Jiahe to be careful of Yan Ning, saying that Yan Ning was the Crown Princess's person; he was the one who warned his daughter to beware of Fang Chuchu , her city is extremely deep.He spread everything, but at that time he didn't expect that he would fall into Fang Chuchu's hands.

Seeing Zuo Xiang's remorseful appearance, Fang Chuchu played with the white jade folding fan in his hand, "This fan is good, it's crystal clear in my hand, it's a pity, it's early spring, it's warm and cold, I really don't need it. Throw it away. It's fine." With that said, Fang Chuchu really threw the fine white jade folding fan into the hall.

No matter how good the white jade is, there is only one way to hit the solid ground—broken.

A good fan was instantly smashed to pieces, Prime Minister Zuo saw it as if he had been smashed to pieces.He knelt down again with a plop, "I know I was wrong, and I don't dare to have second thoughts about the prince and princess in the future."

"It's a pity that I can't use you anymore, just like this broken fan, even if it is restored, won't there still be cracks?" Fang Chuchu took a sip of the tea in the cup, "We have no possibility of cooperation anymore, but I hope the left For Princess Feng's sake, I know what to do next."

Prime Minister Zuo nodded quickly when he heard the words, "Yes, yes, the old minister knows."

"Seeing off the guests." Fang Chuchu turned her eyes cold, and gave the order to evict the guests without emotion.

Prime Minister Zuo was invited out of the Prince's Mansion, and stood hunched outside the mansion. He rushed to the Prince's Mansion early this morning without even having breakfast, and he didn't even have a sip of hot tea all morning.After being humiliated by Fang Chuchu again, now I can't wait to find a place to hide my old face.

"Calling you to be greedy!" Back at the mansion, Prime Minister Zuo locked himself in the study, and slapped himself several times, until his left and right cheeks were swollen, before he stopped.

In the Prince's Mansion, after Prime Minister Zuo left, Fang Chuchu forced herself to calm down and analyze the situation.Just now that he said that he didn't need Prime Minister Zuo's words, he was actually angry, but he was angry because Prime Minister Zuo betrayed him.But now that the matter was over, Fang Chuchu found out that apart from Prime Minister Zuo who could speak for her in the court, she couldn't find anyone she could use for her.

If you want to employ people, you must promise them benefits, but now, she has nothing to give to others except money.However, the 100 million taels stolen from Emperor Jiahe, now she has other uses, neither can she use the silver nor have anything else to give, what should she do now?
"Crown princess, do you know that the niece of the old housekeeper in the mansion is dating a young man from the kitchen." Yilan happily came in from the outside, and said happily without seeing Fang Chuchu's face clearly: "This time the mansion is very happy." It's a happy event, that young man is now a decent little steward, and he has been promoted several levels in a row."

"Marriage?" Fang Chuchu's eyes suddenly lit up.
