Chapter 189 Could it be...
The eldest princess's eyes suddenly became sharp. "How could this be? Didn't he say that he buried those things in the courtyard of the Duke of Zhenguo's study with his own hands? Who are the Imperial Guards?"
"Their noses are as good as dogs'. Not to mention burying it in the yard, even if it's buried in the toilet of the Duke's Mansion, they can find it."
Was it the person lurking around Xie Changning who betrayed her?
Or, did Xie Changning and the Duke of Zhenguo notice something?
After thinking about it, the princess dismissed the idea. Their lives were all in her hands, and she didn't think they would dare to betray her.
Could it be that Xie Changning has started to suspect that stupid thing?
If that were the case, why would she hold a grand family reunion banquet for him!
Before she could figure it out, someone came from the palace and said that Concubine Qi wanted to see her in the palace.
A hint of displeasure flashed across the eldest princess's face. She and Concubine Qi were just partners. Why was Concubine Qi so impatient to find her and call her to account?
Xie Changning stayed up all night.
The same was true for the old lady and Mrs. Lin. After a few simple words, Xie Changning went back.
"Mother, what happened? Are my grandmother and uncle okay?" Ye Zhonglin had been waiting in the front hall all night. As soon as Xie Changning came back, he hurried to greet her.
To avoid being exposed, he did not dare to contact the outside world frequently.
Xie Changning came back at this time, most likely the matter had been settled.
Not to mention that she looked exhausted, it was obvious that those things had been successfully searched out.
"Have you been waiting here all night? Didn't I tell you to go back and rest? Why don't you listen, kid?" Xie Changning said words of blame, but her eyes were full of heartache.
Seeing her like this, Ye Zhonglin couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
Even at this time, she still has the mood to care about him.
Could it be that nothing happened in the Duke's Mansion?
How is this possible?
Xie Changning took in his reaction. She paused for a moment before continuing, "Your grandmother and uncle are fine now. It was just a false alarm. Don't endure it any longer. Go back and get some rest!"
A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Zhonglin's eyes. He felt only shock and no joy in his heart, and said a few insincere words.
Xie Changning sneered in her heart. She urged Ye Zhonglin to go back and rest quickly, and also instructed the housekeeper Zhao to prepare some ginseng soup for him.
Turning around, Ye Zhonglin looked absent-minded. It was obvious that he had buried those things with his own hands. With the ability of the Imperial Guards, there was no way they could not find them.
Unless... Xie Changning and the Duke of Zhenguo never trusted him from the beginning!
Could it be that he has already been exposed? !
As soon as he left, Xie Changning immediately ordered Xie Nan to keep a close eye on the mother and son.
Xuanwu Marquis Mansion.
Qi Zhengye entered the palace early in the morning.
After he left, Fang Rulu said with a smile: "Let's go, Chen Lanyue has been locked up for so many days, it's time for us to go see her."
Ever since she entered the Xuanwu Marquis Mansion, Shen Lanyue has been locked up. She keeps talking about her son Jiang Hongsheng every day and is almost going crazy.
"My son, where is my son? I beg you, please tell me quickly, did you ask someone to kill my Hongsheng?" As soon as she saw Fang Rulu, Shen Lanyue rushed towards her with a crazy look on her face.
Before she could get close to Fang Rulu, the two maids pinned Shen Lanyue to the ground.
"Wuwu... I was wrong. I shouldn't have thought of competing with you for the position of Marquis' wife. I just beg you to return my Hongsheng to me." Shen Lanyue was in tears and kowtowed to Fang Rulu like crazy.
Fang Rulu waved her hand to let everyone else leave. Only she and her two confidants, the two old women who were holding down Shen Lanyue, were left in the small Buddhist hall.
The matter between Qin Xian and Qin Xiao caused a lot of controversy.
Qi Zhengye didn't even dare to go out these days, for fear that others would think of Chen Lanyue.
Fortunately, the things happening on Xie Changning's side were so frequent that they almost blinded everyone's eyes, and no one cared about Chen Lanyue at all.
If she hadn't stopped him, Qi Zhengye would have killed Shen Lanyue long ago.
How did she persuade Qi Zhengye?
If they killed Shen Lanyue at this time, wouldn't it remind people that there was such a person in their house, which would make them laugh!
Shen Lanyue was still kept in the dark.
Tsk tsk! How pitiful!
So, Fang Rulu kindly told Chen Lanyue about the matter between Qin Xiao and Qin Xian.
Shen Lanyue was shocked after hearing this. How could this be possible?
Xie Changning didn't care about Chen Lanyue, but Fang Rulu specially asked someone to check it out.
Who would have thought?
Chen Lanyue is also the child of Qin Xiao and Qin Xian!!!
The reason was that Qin Xian couldn't get pregnant, so she thought of Qin Xiao.
I didn’t expect that this attempt would actually be successful!
These two siblings are really...
Go all the way!
"Haven't you always wanted to know about your son? I might as well tell you that your son was buried under the cliff on the day you entered the mansion. Guess who did it?" Fang Rulu looked at Chen Lanyue with a smile.
Before Shen Lanyue could come to her senses, she was hit on the head again. Her face was full of disbelief, and then she screamed wildly.
Keep calling Jiang Hongsheng's name.
Fang Rulu knew what she was thinking. "He's just a worthless bastard. Do you think I care? You know, I don't even care about that bastard Qi Zhengye. With your brain, how can you threaten me? I wish I could bring you and your son into the Marquis' Mansion, set rules for you every day, and torture you. But unfortunately! That bastard didn't give me that chance."
Shen Lanyue suddenly stopped crying, "Are you saying that it was Qi Zhengye who harmed my Hongsheng?"
Fang Rulu gave her an admiring look. "It seems you're not beyond redemption yet. Just yesterday, Qi Zhengye was still yelling that he wanted to kill you. Don't you think about what means you used to force Qi Zhengye to agree to let you into the mansion? He may not be so cruel, but he can't resist the Empress in the palace, who wants the lives of you and your son."
Shen Lanyue yelled hysterically: "Qi Zhengye, I'm going to kill you, and Concubine Yun, you all just wait..."
After she had finished making such a fuss, Fang Rulu slowly said, "How are you going to kill them? Are you going to kill them with your mouth? Or are you just daydreaming?"
Chen Lanyue's eyes were red as she spoke word by word, "Rongyang, although I don't know what's here, I know that Qi Zhengye goes to Rongyang every two months, and a large amount of money flows into Rongyang through his hands."
Fang Rulu frowned.
Rongyang?
What is Qi Zhengye doing in Rongyang?
Isn’t this the eldest princess’ fiefdom?
A large amount of silver also flowed into Rongyang through Qi Zhengye's hands.
Chen Lanyue had also seen the world, and this only meant that the amount of silver was extremely huge.
What can you do with so much money?
Could it be that... they secretly raised private soldiers in Rongyang!
