Chapter 25 The Princess Is Too Arrogant 12

Seven days later, the convoy going to the villa for summer vacation was fully prepared.

Lian'er and Cui Mingyu were naturally among them, while the Prime Minister and Marquis Qingping were left behind to supervise the country.

Qiu Chi looked at Qingping Hou who stayed behind and gave Yun Jing a meaningful look.

Yun Jing pretended to be very serious, not even looking at Qiu Chi, with a sullen face, and Xin'er standing next to him.

During these two months, Qiu Chi was not favored by King Jing, and the fact that King Jing only favored his concubine had spread throughout the capital.

It was also spread that Qiu Chi had a bad temper and did not take King Jing seriously, causing chaos in King Jing's mansion every day.

If Qiu Chi didn't know what Prince Jing's Mansion was like, she would have believed the rumor.

She even went to Yun Jing for this: "You are really good at slandering my reputation, right?"

Yun Jing said, "My reputation isn't much better, and this is exactly what the Emperor wants."

This was indeed what the emperor was happy to see. He even called Yun Jing into the palace and pretended to ask him to restrain himself.

But in fact, he just wanted to see the chaos in Prince Jing's mansion, and when coupled with his harmonious harem, he was even more satisfied.

Now seeing Yun Jing still with Xin Er, he sighed and said, "You, I really don't know what to say to you."

Those indulgent words would make people who didn't know think they had a very good relationship.

Yun Jing remained silent, and the emperor didn't say anything either. He took Lian'er and got into the carriage.

Yunjing and Qiuchi got on the carriage at the back, and Xiner was also on it.

Before getting on the carriage, Xin'er hesitated: "Well, how about I get on another carriage?"

Yun Jing: "If I tell you to come up, then come up."

Xin'er glanced at Qiuchi secretly, and Qiuchi rolled his eyes: "I won't eat you, come up."

Qiu Chi’s words were more effective than Yun Jing’s, and she got on the carriage immediately.

But as soon as she got on the carriage, Xin'er immediately hid far away from Qiuchi.

Qiu Chi was speechless.

How could such a cowardly person abuse Cui Yueyue over and over again?

The convoy was quite long, so the speed was not fast. By the time they arrived at the destination, four hours had passed.

After such a long journey, they were all somewhat tired, so there was not much activity today and they just ate in the arranged yard.

The emperor is living with Cui Mingyu today. After all, he still wants to stay away from Ying Yunjing.

Lian'er, who had nothing to do, left the yard and strolled casually to the yard where Qiuchi and the others lived.

Lian'er noticed it as soon as she arrived at Qiuchi, but she didn't intend to pay any attention to it.

Today, when Lian'er saw her beside the emperor, even though she didn't show any big expression, Qiuchi could still clearly see the surprise in her eyes.

She was not prepared to answer Lian'er's questions.

After all, she was just used to distract Cui Mingyu so that he wouldn't bother her.

As for the current wealth and glory, that is only for the moment.

Lian'er wandered here for a long time, but didn't meet Qiu Chi, so she gave up and went back.

Naturally, her actions were seen by Yun Jing's people, and then reported to Yun Jing.

Yun Jing immediately looked at Qiu Chi: "Is she here to see you?"

Qiu Chi didn't deny it either: "Yes, I helped her enter the palace and become a favorite concubine. Isn't it normal for her to come to me to thank me?"

Yun Jing had naturally investigated Lian'er, a person who had suddenly appeared. But with so many palace maids, what could he possibly find out? Furthermore, the name Lian'er wasn't particularly uncommon, so it was normal for there to be several people named Lian'er in the palace.

Most of those who investigated Lian'er were only investigating within the palace and did not turn their attention outside the palace. Therefore, they never thought that Lian'er was not a palace maid, but was sent into the palace by someone.

Now after hearing Qiu Chi's words and thinking about the night when he was knocked unconscious, Yun Jing finally understood.

But he was surprised: "What is your purpose in doing this?"

"For your little sweetheart."

Yun Jing: "...Speak properly."

Ever since Yun Jing made things clear with Cui Mingyu that day at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he had no contact with Cui Mingyu anymore.

As for how Qiu Chi managed to send Lian'er into the palace quietly and make her a favorite concubine, he was curious but did not ask.

After all, he knew that Qiu Chi would not tell him even if he asked him, and he might even threaten him to stop interfering in other people's affairs, as he might die suddenly.

However, he was curious about something else: "Why did you send her in?"

Qiu Chi gave Yun Jing a meaningful look.

Yun Jing found this look puzzling. "Don't tell me, she's also part of your revenge plan? But Cui Xinxin doesn't know her, right?"

Qiu Chi smiled but said nothing: "Don't meddle in other people's business, it can easily lead to sudden death."

Yun Jing: “…” He still couldn’t avoid these words.

Yun Jing felt a little helpless, but didn't say anything else.

The emperor plans to stay here until early September. If there is any urgent matter, it can be sent to the emperor as soon as possible for processing.

Yun Jing will take action in August, which is more than a month away.

Qiu Chi didn't want to wait too long: "Can't you just start sooner? Why are you always so slow?"

"This is for safety reasons. We're here now, when security is at its highest."

Qiu Chi preferred to use force and didn't like to use her brains. She suggested to Yun Jing, "I'll have someone kill the emperor for you. Then, wouldn't it be a natural progression for you to succeed the throne, and you wouldn't have to bear the charge of treason?"

"...You want Consort Lian to take action?"

Qiu Chi nodded, but Yun Jing shook his head and said, "She may not listen to you. Even if you send her to the palace and let her deal with the imperial concubine, she is quite favored now. How could she ruin her own good life with her own hands?"

What Yun Jing said made sense, but Qiu Chi was not just saying it casually.

"I've already made the Emperor fall in love with her at first sight. How difficult is it to get her to kill him? It doesn't matter whether she wants it or not. What matters is what I think. Just tell me whether you agree or not."

"Now that you've said that, does it matter whether I agree or not? Even if I disagree, will you really listen to me and give up your idea?"

"Of course not. I'm just asking you symbolically. It doesn't matter if you disagree. What matters is what I think."

Yun Jing rubbed his brows with a headache: "In that case, you should tell me before you take action."

Qiuchi made an OK gesture and went to find Lian'er that night.

Lian'er wasn't surprised to see Qiuchi. "Madam, perhaps I should call you Princess Jing? I wonder if Princess Jing is satisfied with what you've done for me. I have some questions in my mind. Could Princess Jing answer them for me?"

"You've changed a lot now."

Lian'er chuckled: "This is all because of the princess giving Lian'er an opportunity. Lian'er is very grateful. Princess, you came to see Lian'er tonight, but is there anything you want Lian'er to do?"

"Yes, I came to you because I need you to do something."

"Whatever the princess wants Lian'er to do, as long as Lian'er can do it, she will definitely help the princess."

Qiu Chi glanced at her with a half-smile, then said, "I'll ask you to kill the emperor."
