Chapter 75: Chen Cairen's younger brother asks for an audience with the Baili and Chen families.

Inside the pavilion, although Lu Jiu couldn't hear what Qin Yuqing said, he could see through his master's emotions.

Having grown up with his master, if he couldn't even see through his master's expression, then he would have been derelict in his duty.

Lu Jiu noticed that the corners of his master's eyes and lips were slightly raised, and his ears were a soft pink. He didn't need to guess what the Sixth Princess had said to his master.

Suddenly, he felt that his presence here seemed a little redundant.

"Jingchuan, I suspect there is something wrong in the palace. I've been there before..." Before Qin Yuqing finished speaking, the system's voice sounded again.

[It has been detected that the host has completed the side quest 1: A Good Show.]

【Transmission back to the host body begins.】

【Transmission countdown starts.】

Qin Yuqing was a little anxious. She opened her mouth to speak, but found that she couldn't make any sound.

【5.】

Realizing that it was the system that had done the trick, Qin Yuqing anxiously grabbed Lu Jingchuan's hand. Her consciousness became increasingly blurred, and the countdown sound of the system became increasingly urgent.

【4.】

Lu Jingchuan looked at Qin Yuqing's condition and had a rough guess in his mind. He patted Qin Yuqing's arm gently.

【3.】

During the system countdown, Lu Jingchuan said to Qin Yuqing.

"I know everything. I'll go."

【2.】

"wait for me."

【1.】

Qin Yuqing felt a black screen in front of her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she saw the familiar ceiling. Just as she was about to get up and check the surroundings, she heard a familiar scream.

"Princess! Princess, you finally woke up!" Chuntao stood beside Qin Yuqing's bed, with tears in the corners of her eyes, looking at Qin Yuqing with tearful eyes.

"You don't even know how long you've been asleep!"

Qin Yuqing covered his head and stood up with Chuntao's help. He hadn't used his body for a long time, so why did he still feel a strange sense of unfamiliarity?

It's as if this is not my own body.

"How long have I slept?" Qin Yuqing had no idea how long she had slept because she was in a soul form. In addition, she was directly teleported to Lu Jingchuan by the system, so she really didn't know how long she had slept.

"Five days!"

Qin Yuqing covered her head with her hands. It turned out that she had slept for five days. No wonder she felt a little stomachache when she woke up. Her whole body was soft and weak, and she couldn't exert any strength.

The figures of Shen Yanqing and Xiaolu also appeared at the door of the room. Shen Yanqing was a general after all, so unlike Xiaolu, he did not jump directly into Qin Yuqing's arms, but stood aside.

"Princess, you are finally awake." The deer's eyes are big and watery, which makes her very adorable, not to mention that her eyes are red at this moment, and she looks at Qin Yuqing with grievance and fear.

If she had a younger sister, she would probably look like this, right?

For some reason, she thought of the heroine in the original book. If the two sisters had known each other earlier, there would be no Yu Bingyan.

"This is what Xiaolu cooked for you. She's been watching the kitchen every day these days. She said it's a special kind of food from Alhan and is perfect for people with weak spleens and stomachs."

Shen Yanqing came over with the bowl, put it aside, and said with a sigh of relief: "If you don't wake up, I don't know how to tell Lu Jingchuan."

Qin Yuqing smiled lightly and didn't respond. She looked around and asked, "Where are the Pu brothers and sisters? Why don't I see them?"

"Lord Chen, the prefect of Cangzhou, is here to visit, so the two of them are gone." Shen Yanqing yawned. General Xiao walked up to her and whispered a few words into her ear. Shen Yanqing nodded and said to Qin Yuqing with an apologetic look.

"It's time to head back to Yanyun City. After all, leaving the border without an imperial order is a serious crime. The Shen family army and I will go first."

Qin Yuqing nodded. She looked at Shen Yanqing's obviously dark eyes. Suddenly, she called out, "Ah Qing."

Shen Yanqing turned and looked at Qin Yuqing, his eyes full of confusion: "What's wrong?"

Qin Yuqing shook his head: "Be careful on the road and pay attention to safety."

Qin Yuqing didn't believe what the man in black and mask said at all, but if he didn't lie, why was the Shen family the mastermind?

In other words, why did the Shen family cause the flood in the south?

Instead of daydreaming here, it is better to take the initiative to investigate. The biggest problem is the lack of relevant clues, which has put her and Lu Jingchuan in a passive situation.

With Chuntao's support, Qin Yuqing came to the door of the main hall. Before he entered, he heard Pu Qingyu's cold voice.

"Master Chen, your concerns are also the concerns of Ling County, but Ling County's position will not change. If the vagueness you mentioned concerns the Sixth Princess, I'm sorry we can't agree to it."

"Don't mind my harsh words. I'm not a scholar. If this matter involves her safety, then I have nothing to say and nothing to help."

Qin Yuqing felt warm in her heart when she heard this, but then she thought, what caused Park Qingyu to say that? Even Park Qinghe, who was usually sloppy and unfocused, said that.

There was silence in the main hall for a moment, followed by a sigh: "I believe you have misunderstood what I meant." Unexpectedly, the voice sounded quite youthful, and Lord Chen, the prefect of Cangzhou, continued.

"The Sixth Princess is my sister's child, so I want to take her to Cangzhou to have a look and have some fun for a few days."

Sister? Lord Chen is Concubine Chen's biological brother?

Are there really such coincidences in this world?

"Sir Chen, please forgive me for being blunt. The Sixth Princess grew up in the palace, but I have never heard of any of her mother's family members seeing her." Park Qingyu spoke in a calm tone, but with an imposing aura.

"Besides, it's no secret that the Sixth Princess's biological mother is Consort Chen, and that the Sixth Princess will personally go to the south."

"Why? Is the news from Cangzhou so isolated?"

Lord Chen's voice sounded awkwardly: "It is true that this humble official was not thoughtful enough about this matter, but now is the time, and this humble official has no choice but to do so."

"Let's all take a step back." Pu Qinghe saw that Master Chen would not give up until he achieved his goal. He sat lazily on the chair and said, "Tell us what you want to do and what your purpose is in taking the Sixth Princess away, and we will agree."

"This..." Lord Chen hesitated, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. I can't make the decision on this matter."

Qin Yuqing understood in his heart that it was probably this Lord Chen from Cangzhou who came to visit and proposed to take him to Cangzhou. However, when faced with the inquiries of the Pu brothers and sisters, he hesitated and could not give a specific reason, which made people suspicious.

However, Qin Yuqing had another guess in her mind. In the time and space of the original book's plot, Qin Yuqing noticed one point. After the heroine of the original book was burned, Lu Jingchuan and Chuntao both mentioned it.

"The Sixth Princess said that Princess Aruan would come back."

Now it seems that the Sixth Princess is the heroine of the original book, and Princess Aruan is herself.

At that time, Lu Jingchuan and Chuntao already knew that there were two Sixth Princesses in the world, so Lu Jingchuan told her when he saw her.

"You're alive."

The biggest question is, how did Lu Jingchuan and Chuntao, the characters in the book, know about this?

Could this have something to do with the fact that Lu Jingchuan is his anchor?

Who was the one who gave the order? Or, in other words, who was the one who played this chess game, turning everyone into chess pieces, even the uncontrollable factors.

Normally, as time goes by and events are triggered, the fog covering the road will gradually dissipate, but this is obviously an unusual situation. The fog is getting thicker and there are more and more things that need to be investigated.

But Qin Yuqing had a feeling that whether it was her transmigrating into the book or everything that happened in this time and space, it was not caused by one person behind the scenes, but more like a melee among multiple factions, leading to the current delicate balance.

In this case, why not take the initiative to see what Lord Chen of Cangzhou is thinking and what he is planning.

"Qingyu, Qinghe." Qin Yuqing walked into the main hall with Chuntao's support. "Leave the rest to me. You two have worked hard these past few days."

Qin Yuqing noticed that when Lord Chen saw her walk in, he subconsciously stood up, first looked at her carefully, then a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and finally, as if he was sure of something, he wiped his eyes happily.

Was he really happy about his appearance? Then why hadn't we met before?

"Master Chen, I caught a cold a few days ago and was able to get out of bed today." Qin Yuqing sat in the main seat, and Chuntao stood beside her obediently pouring tea.

"I wonder what Master Chen is here for today?"

Lord Chen was about to speak with joy, but when his eyes fell on the other three people present, he closed his mouth again, not knowing whether he should speak or not.

Lord Chen's expression is the same as those modern people who want to benefit themselves but are worried about outsiders around and dare not give it, so they use small expressions to hint at themselves.

"It's okay. These people are all trustworthy and have been with me through thick and thin." Qin Yuqing said lightly with a smile in his eyes.

Hearing Qin Yuqing say this, Lord Chen, who was still struggling to hold back, sat down on the chair and told him the purpose of his trip.

"Actually, it's not that the Chen or Baili families are unwilling to look for the Sixth Princess or protect my sister. It's just that this is an order from my sister, the former head of the family, and we have no choice but to obey."

"If possible, we also want to take you away from the cannibalistic harem."

Chen Cairen's biological father married into the Baili family, but he had a good relationship with his biological mother. His biological mother agreed to let the child take the father's surname Chen. In addition, Chen Cairen's family had high hopes from the moment she was born, and she showed her extraordinary talents from an early age.

Her precocious intelligence, wit, and ability to compose poetry at the age of three are no longer her shining qualities.

In addition, she is better at swimming than most people. Even some older generations who have been hanging around by the water for years are not as good as her. Especially after reading a lot of poetry and books, she has her own unique insights into business and the court.

Even though she was a woman, the Baili and Chen families were willing to eliminate all unhealthy practices and devote all their efforts to cultivating Chen Cairen. The young Chen Cairen lived up to the high expectations and was recognized by the elders of the Baili and Chen families, becoming the sole head of the two families.

It was because of this that Chen Cairen's reputation spread throughout the north.

But one day, the stable and peaceful life changed. Chen Cairen, who was supposed to be practicing martial arts that day, skipped class for the first time in so many years, and then met the young emperor. The trajectory of fate began to move and deviate.

After returning, Chen Cairen did many things that her elders at home did not understand or agree with, but no one could stop Chen Cairen. She was too outstanding, so outstanding that they always felt that she could succeed.

It was not until much later that they received the news of Chen Cairen's death. At the same time, the Chen family and the Baili family began to close themselves off and gradually withdrew from the public eye.

"This is a letter left by my elder sister. If the floods in Cangzhou and Lingjun are resolved by the Sixth Princess, please be sure to bring the Sixth Princess to the Cangzhou prefect. The answer she wants can be found at the pool." Lord Chen handed a letter to Qin Yuqing.

Qin Yuqing took the letter, looked at the yellowed envelope carefully and asked, "Do you know why mother did this?"

"have no idea."

"Neither the Baili family nor the Chen family knew anything. They were just following orders."
