Chapter 406 If the Emperor saw this, he would definitely be happy
In the inconspicuous courtyard of the harem.
Wen Renli helped Fuxing sit down, took out a white jade bottle from his black robe, poured out a red pill from the bottle, and handed it to Fuxing, "Take it."
Fuxing took the pill silently, placed it gently on his tongue, and without drinking any water, he tilted his head back and swallowed the pill forcefully.
She closed her eyes and waited for a while, and finally felt the severe pain in her abdomen eased a lot.
"This Yuan Huaihong is really scheming!" Wen Renli was obviously dissatisfied and said coldly in a low voice, "He actually used a three or four-year-old child to trick you into going to the Eastern Palace. How despicable!"
Fuxing lowered his head and didn't react.
Wen Ren Li spoke again, "It seems that none of these royal descendants are easy to deal with."
Fuxing remained silent.
"Oh right!" Wen Renli felt bored and ended the topic, then said, "We'll have guests coming soon, and Li Suining's matter... I'm afraid it won't be so easy to fool around with."
He turned around and sat down at the next table. After a long pause, he suddenly said, "Perhaps... we shouldn't have entered the palace and gotten involved in this mess."
From beginning to end, Fuxing didn't react at all.
The two of them just sat there in the dark, dressed in black, almost blending into the night.
I don’t know how long it was before there was a knock on the door.
"I'm coming!" Wen Renli stood up and looked at Fuxing and said, "Go open the door!"
Fuxing slowly stood up and walked towards the front door, while Wenren Lize paced back and forth in the front hall, looking restless.
Soon, the door opened and a woman came in. She was wearing clothes similar to Fuxing's and her appearance could not be seen clearly. It was obviously the guest who came that night.
Seeing Fuxing's dissatisfaction, the woman snorted, "Are you turning a deaf ear to the master's orders?"
Fuxing listened quietly with his head lowered.
"It's no use talking to a mute like you." The woman became more and more dissatisfied, quickened her pace, and soon entered the front hall.
"Hello, aunt!" Wen Renli stepped forward and bowed his head to greet.
"Wenren Li, what are you doing?" The woman kept her voice low, clearly very cautious. "Didn't I tell you to send Li Suining away? You actually let the emperor keep her? Are you crazy?"
"Aunt, calm down." Wen Renli explained softly, "We're keeping Li Suining for now, but we actually have other considerations."
"If Lord Zuo can't use Li Suining to get Bai Yunfeng to speak, then it would not be wise to send Li Suining away now." Wen Renli looked calm.
"What do you mean?" The woman was clearly confused. "You'd better have a valid reason, otherwise, no one will be happy."
"We left Li Suining behind because we were entrusted by the second prince Yuan Xiaonian." Wen Ren Li still looked very calm, but he said a shocking news.
The woman was obviously in disbelief. After a moment's pause, she confirmed in disbelief, "Who are you talking about?"
"The Second Prince, Yuan Xiaonian!" Wen Renli continued, "It seems that both he and Concubine Jing from the Cold Palace like this little girl very much. That day, he saw my aunt coming here, so..."
"What?" The woman panicked even more and looked around nervously.
"Don't worry, auntie, he's not here today." Wen Ren Li immediately reminded her.
The woman was still uneasy, "How can you be sure he's not here?"
"Aunt, in Yuan Xiaonian's eyes, Fuxing and I are now his." Wen Renli said calmly.
The woman's eyes changed, but she didn't say anything.
Wen Renli continued, "We went against our aunt's wishes and left Li Suining for him, which was equivalent to passing the first hurdle in his heart. Now, he has basically accepted Fuxing and me. Although I can't say that he completely trusts us, at least he won't doubt us easily."
The woman thought for a moment before speaking slowly, "This matter is too big, you shouldn't act on your own."
"Aunt, we can't miss this opportunity. When he came to us, we had no choice but to take advantage of his trick." Wen Renli lowered his head. "Li Suining is just a little kid, not worth mentioning at all. Lord Zuo... maybe they can think of some other way to keep her in the palace. Then we will have the foundation for cooperation with Yuan Xiaonian. I believe... this is the most important thing."
The woman didn't say anything, because she knew clearly that this matter was indeed very attractive.
After all, Bai Yunfeng is just a general, and his weight naturally cannot be compared with that of a prince.
"I will report this matter truthfully, but I want to warn you," the woman's voice grew colder, "you must understand that betraying your master will only lead to death."
"I dare not!" Wenren Li lowered his head and answered with a very respectful attitude.
The woman didn't ask any more questions and left quickly.
Wen Renli finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Fuxing wearily, "Go to bed early!"
Fuxing nodded and the two separated and went to their rooms.
——
The next day, after Yuan Huaihong had breakfast with Xiaotuanzi, someone outside came in and said that Yuan Xiaonian had arrived.
"The Second Prince?" Shaoyao's eyes widened in shock, and she looked at Yuan Huaihong in disbelief. "Your Highness, the Second Prince is really here! That lucky girl..."
Yuan Huaihong raised his hand, signaling her to stop talking.
Shaoyao immediately stood up straight and closed her mouth, but her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
She couldn't imagine that there was really someone in this world who could predict the future.
It’s a pity that the price for Miss Fuxing to predict the future is too high, otherwise, she really wants to ask what her future will be like.
"Sister Suining, do you want to go with me to meet the Second Prince?" Yuan Huaihong asked the little girl gently.
"Okay!" Li Suining agreed immediately. In fact, she already knew why Yuan Xiaonian came here.
Soon, Yuan Huaihong took Li Suining to the front hall, and sure enough, they saw Yuan Xiaonian standing at the door with his back to them.
"Second brother!" Yuan Huaihong spoke first, his voice trembling slightly due to nervousness.
Yuan Xiaonian slowly turned around, his eyes swept over Li Suining, and then he respectfully said to Yuan Huaihong, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"What are you doing, second brother?" Yuan Huaihong stepped forward and looked at Yuan Xiaonian excitedly, "Second brother has grown up and is about to catch up with big brother in height."
He was obviously very happy and patted Yuan Xiaonian's shoulder vigorously. "Well, you are stronger than my brother. If the emperor saw you, he would definitely be happy. But... in this cold winter, why are you wearing so little?"
He turned around and looked at the little girl in confusion, "Didn't you and Shaoyao give some winter clothes to the second child before?"
Li Suining stuck out her tongue. She did not tell the Crown Prince that Yuan Xiaonian had burned the clothes because she did not want to make him sad.
