Wanyan Chuyao looked at Zhang Er and Wanyan Lingyuan and had a bold guess. Could it be that Zhang Er was poisoned because he was working for the prince?
Wanyan Lingyuan naturally doubted Zhang Er's loyalty, and he also knew that Zhang Er had developed feelings for Li Xiang'er over the years.
He did not think that dealing with Li Xiang'er would solve the problem once and for all. On the contrary, the queen would continue to stuff people into his room. If Li Xiang'er was gone, there would still be Zhang Xiang'er and Liu Xiang'er.
Moreover, if he dealt with Li Xiang'er, it would be equivalent to telling the Queen that he already knew her plan, which would not only alert the enemy but also put him in a passive position in the next matter.
The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. This situation is quite favorable for him.
After thinking for a while, since he had already confirmed Li Xiang'er's identity as a spy, he could observe secretly and make plans. Wanyan Lingyuan looked at Wanyan Chuyao and said, "Cousin, you helped me a lot today!"
In the previous life, Wanyan Chuyao paid more attention to the Liao Dynasty, so he was too aware of the struggles between royal families, but he could understand it if he thought about it.
The third prince, Wanyan Haoyang, was the Queen's biological son and was already ten years old, which was the right age to make plans. The third prince was weak by nature and relied on the Queen for everything, so he was easier to control than the unruly Crown Prince Wanyan Lingyuan.
Although the queen is the prince's aunt, so what? In the face of power disputes, even fathers and sons and brothers will turn against each other and fight to the death for power.
Where is the true family love in heaven?
Wanyan Chuyao looked at Wanyan Lingyuan with eyes full of sympathy. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a high position, so how many eyes were staring at him?
"Your Highness is too polite." Wanyan Chuyao said with a smile.
Wanyan Lingyuan looked at Zhang Er and said, "First, move Li Xiang'er, keep a close eye on her, and report to me immediately if anything happens!"
Zhang Er took the order, feeling very complicated. Although Li Xiang'er had saved her life temporarily, her final outcome would definitely be as bad as death!
"Cousin, is there any way to detoxify Zhang Er's poison?"
Wanyan Chuyao nodded. This little bit of poison was no problem for her.
Wanyan Lingyuan hoped that Wanyan Chuyao could help Zhang Er detoxify, but to everyone's surprise, Zhang Er did not want to detoxify.
Everyone looked at him for a moment, and Wanyan Lingyuan finally shook his head and did not beg Wanyan Chuyao again.
After the prince and his entourage left, Wanyan Jing talked to Wanyan Chuyao about the family tree ceremony that would be held in two days, including the process and things to pay attention to, and explained everything to Wanyan Chuyao in detail.
After finishing speaking, Wanyan Jing took a sip of tea to moisten his dry throat, then added with a smile, "Yaoyao, don't be afraid. If something goes wrong along the way, it doesn't matter. Daddy will help you."
Wanyan Chuyao remembered everything in her heart, and when she heard Wanyan Jing's words again, she felt warm inside.
The genealogy ceremony two days later went very smoothly. The King of Liao showed his importance to Wanyan Chuyao by specially conferring him the title of Duke of Ning'an of Liao and rewarding him with countless gold and jewels. So far, Wanyan Chuyao was the only duke with a title.
늀Even the most favored Wanyan Liyue didn’t have a title. When she was watching the ceremony, her eyes were fixed on Wanyan Chuyao, and she was jealous to the point of going crazy!
Why was this cheap woman able to marry Gu Qingchen and be granted the title of duke by the emperor?
Wanyan Chuyao was dressed in a palace dress, solemn and bright, the hairpins in her hair swayed gently as she knelt, "An Ning, thank you father for your gift!"
The Liao king smiled happily, "Yaoyao, stand up quickly!"
Wanyan Chuyao stood up obediently. The Liao king was very satisfied with her behavior and was very pleased that his third brother had finally found his own heir. It was such a coincidence that Wanyan Chuyao was engaged to the regent of the Qi Dynasty, so the peace between the two countries was guaranteed.
After all, the national strength of the Liao Dynasty and the Qi Dynasty is comparable. No matter which side starts a war, the other side will definitely get the upper hand. They definitely want to do something that will hurt both sides and allow the other country to profit.
After the genealogy ceremony, there was a banquet, one to celebrate Wanyan Chuyao's return, the other to welcome the arrival of the Regent of Da Qi.
The atmosphere at the palace banquet was lively, and the Liao Dynasty also produced many talented people. Many noble ladies were very curious about the newly appointed prince, but most of them were impressed by Gu Qingchen's appearance and temperament!
Since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, but beauties also love heroes.
They would also be willing to marry the Regent as concubines!
Wanyan Liyue had been attending the palace banquet, but she continued to be under house arrest after the banquet.
The queen inadvertently looked at Wanyan Liyue with a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes, which was just caught by Wanyan Chuyao. She understood what had happened between the mother and daughter, but she had been very cautious since she sat in the hall.
There were always too many small moves at palace banquets, and this was the territory of the Queen and Wanyan Liyue. She had treated Wanyan Liyue like that in Da Qi before, and she believed that this mother and daughter would hate her!
Sure enough, when the little palace maid poured fruit wine for Wanyan Chuyao, she accidentally spilled it on Wanyan Chuyao's sleeves.
There is still some sugar in the fruit wine, which is sticky and very comfortable.
"Your Highness, please spare my life. I did it on purpose!" The maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed tremblingly, attracting the attention of many people.
Wanyan Chuyao was sure that she would blame the little maid for such a small matter, so she smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll just change my clothes!"
In order to make up for her mistake, the little palace maid volunteered, "I will take your Highness to the side hall to change clothes."
Wanyan Chuyao did not refuse. She took Huang Xiaoyu and left with the little palace maid.
Gu Qingchen wanted to follow, but was restrained by Wanyan Chuyao's look, so he did not stand up.
Wanyan Jing looked at Wanyan Chuyao's departing back with some concern, then turned around and ordered Han Xing behind him to protect Wanyan Chuyao secretly.
Han Xing took the order and left.
The little palace maid brought Wanyan Chuyao to a side hall, which was some distance away from the banquet hall. After leading the way, the little palace maid left.
Huang Xiaoyu was relieved that Wanyan Chuyao was here alone. He checked the hall for a long time but couldn't find anything wrong, so he was sent by Wanyan Chuyao to get clean clothes.
After the little palace maid hurried back to the banquet hall, she quietly walked to Gu Qingchen's side and whispered, "Your Highness, His Highness asks you to come over."
Gu Qingchen held the wine glass for a long time without any response. When the little palace maid was worrying about how to persuade Gu Qingchen again, she caught a glimpse of Gu Qingchen standing up and motioning for her to lead the way.
The little palace maid was overjoyed and walked out with Gu Qingchen.
The further they walked along the road, the quieter it became. Gu Qingchen followed the little palace maid closely, and Ye Feng followed closely behind.
