Chapter 390 Jade Concubine’s Warning

At a banquet, everyone was preoccupied.

The rumor that the second prince seemed to have died suddenly spread in the imperial city, and everyone who heard the news paid attention to the movements in the palace.

However, for several days, no news came out, as if all the previous news was groundless.

At the Yufei Palace, Fuping had a white cloth wrapped around her forehead. She looked at her biological mother, Yufei, in confusion, not understanding why she had called her into the palace.

At this time, in the huge house, Concubine Yu dismissed all the servants, leaving only her and her daughter.

Ever since the family dinner ended, Concubine Yu had been unable to sleep or eat for several days. Today, she was determined to find out what her daughter was thinking about Shangguan Nanxing.

"Fuping, tell me honestly, do you have any improper thoughts about the Crown Prince?"

Concubine Yu looked at Fuping. Although this topic was difficult to talk about, she had to get to the bottom of it, otherwise it would definitely be a hidden danger in the future.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" When Fuping heard Concubine Yu's direct question, she suppressed her panic and gave a perfunctory answer, but she did not dare to look Concubine Yu in the eye.

"Fuping, are you mentally ill? How could you be so mean to the prince..."

Seeing her daughter so guilty, Concubine Yu flew into a rage and her daughter didn't even dare to look at her. It was certain that this was true.

"Mother, why do you say that? Love between men and women is not something that can be controlled. Besides, I haven't done anything excessive."

When Fuping heard what Yufei said, she retorted with dissatisfaction. So what if she just liked Shangguan Nanxing? Was it necessary to have such a look of despair?

"You'd better make sure you didn't do anything. Your father can even abandon a prince like Shangguan Nanfeng. If you cause any scandal, there's nothing I can do as your mother."

Seeing that Fuping was not going to listen to advice, Yufei took out her right hand and rubbed her forehead gently while sitting on the chair.

"It can't be that serious." Fuping looked at Concubine Yu's frown and heard what she said, so he muttered in dissatisfaction.

"You'd better marry the Fourth Prince peacefully."

Concubine Yu raised her head, looked at her daughter's unconvinced expression, and sighed heavily.

"Mother, why didn't the emperor announce to the world that the second prince had passed away?"

Fuping didn't want Concubine Yu to mention this matter again, so she changed the subject, looked puzzled, and asked softly.

"Shangguan Nanxing's wedding is coming up soon. How could your father announce his death? We must wait until Shangguan Nanxing's wedding before making any plans."

After Yu Fei finished speaking, she sighed heavily again.

Why didn't she realize her daughter's shocking idea before?

In fact, Concubine Yu's mind was all on the sick Fifth Prince. As for her daughter Fuping, she cared very little about her. It was normal for her not to know what her daughter was thinking.

"What mother said does make sense. It's alright, Fuping will go back first."

When Fuping heard Concubine Yu mention Shangguan Nanxing's wedding, she became inexplicably upset thinking that the wedding day was less than ten days away.

Shangguan Nanfeng was a complete failure, but she still had a chance when Su Yue got married!

"Go ahead, go ahead. Mother hopes you won't have any useless thoughts and will prepare well. After the Crown Prince's wedding, it will be your turn."

Yu Fei didn't want to continue talking, so she waved at Fu Ping, indicating that she could leave.

As for Li Yan, she has been feeling very anxious since she heard the news of Shangguan Nanfeng's death.

Her greatest certainty before was that the emperor would not kill his own son, so she encouraged Fuping to kill someone with a borrowed knife. However, she did not expect that the knife would break?

"Madam, there's news from the front hall that Princess Jianing is here and she wants to see you."

At this time, a maid came hurriedly and spoke softly to Li Yan.
