In the courtyard of Zhaoshu Palace, among the rockery, the person hiding also frowned.
How could such a person attract the attention and care of his friends? There were many people with ulterior motives in the harem. Although he had never seen the maid's face and only heard her voice, he did not have much good impression of her.
How is it different to behave like this behind the master's back and be an ungrateful person?
Just when I was feeling annoyed, Qingqing's voice came from outside the rockery.
"The princess' days will not be long. Death is no longer a fear for her, but she cherishes the days she has now. Originally, the princess was already unhappy when the crown prince asked for a marriage alliance, but during this period of time, the princess wants to show her best side to everyone, especially in the hearts of the queen and the noble concubine, and to be the best version of herself. As for the crown prince's recklessness, I'm afraid the princess will blame him for everything." Qingqing paused, "Your Highness, you may not know, but when the crown prince wanted to marry, our princess had already investigated the crown prince's affairs."
survey?
Zhuge Feiyang listened quietly to Qingqing's words, nodded slightly, and signaled Qingqing to continue.
Qingqing, who was encouraged, naturally became more energetic: "The princess said that the Crown Prince's marriage was either because the king wanted it, or because the Crown Prince needed the support of another country. But no matter what, it was not a good thing for her, because behind it, there was a murderous plot against her. So, when the princess's value of being used is gone, then she will no longer have any value. Whether the princess will become a dying person, used as a basis for framing the Crown Prince, or used by the Crown Prince, the ending is the same, but all of this depends on the fact that she is just a princess that the Emperor does not love. But now, man proposes, God disposes. The princess's life is short, and the Emperor loves her to the bone. If the Crown Prince still insists, then he must have other intentions."
"That's nonsense."
"Your Highness, why should you be upset? What I said was just what the princess said. Based on my understanding of the princess, after this incident, perhaps the princess will do the opposite. She was originally unwilling to marry into the Tianxi Kingdom, but now she will insist on the marriage because of the prince's matter. But..." Qingqing's eyes were full of worry, and she kept shaking her head. "If the princess marries into the Tianxi Kingdom, I'm afraid that the prince will first have to bear the rumors that he has an ugly woman as his concubine. Then, the rumors spread by the princess will make the princess unhappy. Then, the princess will definitely plot against the prince step by step, and even destroy the prince's position. The relatives will be sad and the enemies will be happy. The princess will definitely do it."
"What about the second way?" Zhuge Feiyang asked with a gloomy face.
"Yunguang Kingdom has also proposed a marriage alliance. Our princess may not be able to follow her own ideas. However, the prince has not been tricked by the princess, and the princess will not let it go. So, how long do you think the peace in Tianxi Kingdom can last?" Qingqing chuckled, "Your Highness may think that I have overestimated the princess, but whether you dare to bet on this depends on your Highness. It is rumored that the War God King of Yunguang Kingdom has a strong fate, but for the princess who has little time left, all this is no longer important. And the princess has been able to do so well in the harem of Luozha Kingdom over the years. I am afraid that your Highness also knows her acting ability. How can a dying person not be considerate to the War God King? Too cold hearts are often easily melted by the warmth of no regrets. What do you think?"
Silence fell as Qingqing asked back.
Time seemed to be long as the silence lasted for a long while. After a long while, Zhuge Feiyang gritted his teeth and asked, "What are your conditions?"
"Your Highness, you are a man of few words. What I want is really very simple." When Qingqing was speaking, the people behind the rockery were also listening attentively.
"say!"
"Five hundred taels, I promise that the Second Princess will not only not anger His Royal Highness, but will also make arrangements for the marriage according to His Royal Highness's preferences."
"Five hundred taels?!" The palace maid beside Zhuge Feiyang couldn't help but exclaimed, but when Zhuge Feiyang glared at her, she shut her mouth angrily.
"This palace..." Zhuge Feiyang stretched out his voice, "Why should I trust you?"
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no intention of marrying a foreign princess, he will definitely think that my suggestion is worth a try. What's more, five hundred taels is a drop in the bucket for the Crown Prince." Qingqing said with her back straightened.
At this moment, the man hiding in the dark, Nangong Muxi, couldn't help but widen his eyes and scratch his ears.
Just for a mere five hundred taels?!
Is this little palace maid not very good at counting?
Well, although five hundred taels might be a lot for her, shouldn't she be aiming for something higher if she takes such a risk? Whether it's the crown prince's concubine or wealth and splendor, it's definitely more than five hundred taels. How could this person be so foolish in his pursuit of wealth?
No, or rather, she only seeks wealth, but leaves room for others! Qingming flashed through her mind. This little palace maiden loves wealth but not power and status.
Sure enough, Zhuge Feiyang asked about Nangong Muxi's doubts.
"You betrayed your master, and this is what you want? A mere five hundred taels?"
"Or, Your Highness, do you think I should write something else?" Qingqing asked, and then laughed at herself. "I didn't betray the princess. I just took advantage of her for my own benefit. If the princess leaves, I will be alone and free. If you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. What I did was just to prepare for the rainy day. If Your Highness is not willing to make this deal, I have nothing to say. I'll take my leave."
Qingqing bowed and turned to leave.
"Stop!" Zhuge Feiyang shouted.
Qingqing, with her back to Zhuge Feiyang, stopped and had a hooked smile on her face.
After his death, Zhuge Feiyang told his trusted palace maid, "Give her five hundred taels."
Qingqing put away her smile, turned around and saluted the Crown Prince Zhuge Feiyang, "I thank you, Your Highness. I wonder if Your Highness wants me to marry into the Tianxi Kingdom or the Yunguang Kingdom?"
"The person I want to marry is a useful chess piece, not an obstacle."
"I understand. I'm taking my leave." Qingqing took the banknote from Tianxi Kingdom and left with a smile.
On the other side, Zong Zheng Xiaoting returned to Cuiyun Palace, took off his gorgeous clothes, weighed the blood bag given by Doctor Chen in his hand, and waited for the return of the silver with shining eyes.
She was seen gazing at herself in the bronze mirror with her chin lowered, amusing herself.
He originally planned to play a prank on someone, but unexpectedly, he accidentally hit someone, which gave him an idea and allowed him to find a better excuse to conceal his identity. More importantly, he had more money.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting raised the corner of his mouth. This way, the banknotes of Tianxi Kingdom would be available.
His cunning eyes rolled around. Now, all he needed was some items that could be pawned. However, it would be perfect if he had the banknotes from Tianxi Kingdom and Yuxiao Kingdom.
Just as Zong Zheng Xiaoting was opening his mind, the white jade bracelet on his hand, which was connected to the soul-locking bracelet, attracted his induction. Zong Zheng Xiaoting widened his eyes, not caring about his appearance, and just dressed in plain clothes, he went to the place where he felt the induction.
