Chapter 266 It Wasn’t Me
"You're going to enjoy the delicious food without me?" When Feng Aoqing arrived at the gate, Han Lang was sitting on the doorstep eating a pear again.
"Doesn't your butt hurt?" Feng Aoqing squatted in front of him, holding her cheek and asked him. Their faces were very close, and their eyes expressed the longing for each other after not seeing each other for a day.
"Not bad." Han Lang replied.
"The master was on the eaves just now! I saw it and came down after seeing our car." An Ke said with a smile.
"Oh, so you're looking forward to the performance here!" Feng Aoqing stood up and stretched out her hands towards him.
Han Lang shook her hand and stood up. "I was standing on the eaves, looking forward to it too! I was just wondering! Is the cook at home not good enough? The number of times you've eaten at home and with me can be counted on one hand."
"You only came home an hour earlier than me. How dare you scold me?" Feng Aoqing smiled and threw herself into his arms.
The two of them hugged each other under the flower wall, and the rose branches had begun to sprout new buds.
"Let me see the flower bloom once, then we'll leave. King Cong's leg should be healed by then." Feng Aoqing whispered.
"I think so too. The weather will be warmer by then, which is a good time to travel." Han Lang replied.
The two of them entered Lanfengju and only then did they feel at ease to talk.
The walls of Lanfengju are thicker than ordinary walls, and the angle is specially chosen to reduce the echo to a certain extent. Therefore, even if someone stands close to the wall, they will not be able to hear the sound inside.
The same goes for the rooms in Lanfengju, which prevent walls from eavesdropping.
"Prince Rui's Palace..." Feng Aoqing still wanted to confirm it and also wanted to know how he did it.
She couldn't think of anyone else who would vent her anger, and only Han Lang had the courage to do so.
Han Lang shook his head: "It's not me, but I wanted to do it too. I have to admit that this person did it better than me."
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied, the bad guys in Prince Rui's house should have been dealt with long ago. The king, out of consideration for their old friendship, suppressed the memorial countless times.
Hearing this, Feng Aoqing was a little surprised.
"Could it be that someone has a crush on me?" Feng Aoqing patted her pretty face.
"Get lost! Everyone in this capital knows that you are already taken." Han Lang rolled his eyes as usual.
"That's... someone wants to show off his achievements and is afraid that I will ruin his leg?" Feng Aoqing only thought of Prince Cong Yuwen Zhao.
"Don't think too simply of him. I don't think it's entirely for you." Han Lang smiled.
"Ouch, why is my head itchy?" Feng Aoqing scratched his head.
"Ah! Did you eat something you shouldn't? What kind of food did that damn Duke Qiu prepare for you? Let me see!" Han Lang leaned over and flipped her hair.
He remembered that once An Lei had an allergic reaction to something he ate and his head was also very itchy.
"Being with smart people like you makes me feel like my brain is growing bigger, so my head is itchy." Feng Aoqing said with a smile.
"Feng Aoqing!" Han Lang was helping her pick the pearl flowers. When he heard that she was joking, he put the pearl flowers back to her.
"Ouch!" Feng Aoqing screamed and shrank back.
"Oh my, did I prick you? I was too rough with my hand, I'm sorry..." Han Lang was heartbroken and started to flip her hair again.
"You're piercing my new brain!"
"Feng Aoqing!!!!"
Feng Aoqing had already picked up her skirt and ran away.
The people in the courtyard seemed to be accustomed to the two sides of the two men. Whenever they saw each other, they would summon another soul.
You guys are making a fuss, and everyone's mouths are filled with dog food, and they're laughing foolishly.
Prince Rui is on the side of the Crown Prince and is in charge of several important figures in the Ministry of Works, including the Chief Historian of the Ministry of Works.
This is probably what King Cong is planning, Feng Aoqing thought.
Han Lang acted earlier than him, and Feng Aoqing's grievances only lasted for one night with him.
He had said before that the old princess would never be able to speak again. Feng Aoqing was afraid that he would kill her, so she tried to persuade him, but later found out that he didn't.
The day after the banquet, the old princess rested for a night and finally recovered a little. She planned to go to the queen to complain.
I got in the carriage and drove on, but something seemed to be amiss. The palace didn't seem that far away! Why was it still taking so long? I asked Mammy to open the door and take a look.
The nanny called the coachman's name twice, but no one answered. She hurriedly pushed open the door and saw the coachman lying on the board in front of the door, staring at her with a pair of dead fish eyes.
Mammy fell back into the car, fainting from fright.
The old princess had experienced two dynasties and was quite courageous, so she asked the visitor what his purpose was.
"His Royal Highness Prince Yu said that the Queen is not in good health, so it's better for the old princess not to disturb her." Ling Shuang said.
"I'm his aunt! What can he do to me?"
"Think about it carefully. If you go, no matter what you say, dying won't be enough to make His Highness feel better." Ling Su told the old princess about Han Lang's decision.
"Humph! I just don't believe it! He actually dared to hurt me for a stranger!"
"Of course I dare not. Please do as you please." Ling Song pulled the horse and stopped the carriage.
When the old princess opened the car door, Ling Shuang had disappeared.
When she got out of the car, she saw that it had reached a remote wasteland. She didn't know the road and didn't know how to drive. There was also a fainted nanny and a corpse in the car.
Finally, she walked a long way in the mud, one step deep and one step shallow, and finally found a farmer's house. She took the gold hairpin and sent someone to Rui Wangfu to report the news. Only then did the people in Rui Wangfu take her back.
After she came back, she fell ill and was bedridden, so her plan to go to the queen to complain was delayed.
When the queen heard that the old princess was ill, she sent people to inquire about the situation, but no one could explain clearly what happened.
She also understood clearly that this was Guayaer declaring war on her, telling her that he didn't care about anyone, including this uncle and aunt.
She heard word for word what Feng Aoqing said in the Prince's Mansion from the Crown Princess.
A few days later, something happened again in Prince Rui's Mansion.
In this matter, they covered the mouth of one person and released the other, knowing that too many people had seen it and that everyone knew the principle of not punishing the most serious person according to the law, so they told the story outside in a vivid and lifelike manner.
King Yuwen Sinian was so angry that he broke the table.
The table was covered with letters of remonstration from ministers, which contained not only the absurd events of that evening but also countless other accusations.
In the current situation, there is no way to avoid punishment.
He was reluctant to kill them, so he dismissed their entire family from their official positions, leaving only the title of king. All other benefits were cancelled, and then they were ordered to return to their ancestral home, Yucheng, to live and were not allowed to leave without the emperor's order.
Moreover, their descendants are not allowed to hold official positions.
The fiefdom there would keep them from starving to death, but they would certainly no longer be able to live a luxurious life.
Yuwen Sinian thought about it and decided to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. This extravagant problem must be eliminated.
Speaking of extravagance, he thought of the "Qilin Brocade" again.
He guessed that it must have been done by Feng Aoqing. He thought that this woman was extraordinary. She had single-handedly changed the clothing standards of women in the capital, and it was very consistent with his policy of eliminating extravagance. He had been pushing it for a long time, but it was of no use.
In this case, the prince has no choice but to abandon Fu Xuezhi, which is not good for him, but good for Tian Yao.
