Chapter 22 It’s coming, it’s all coming
Zhao Yunnuan was about to have Nie Qionghua dragged out when a voice suddenly came to his ears.
"My Lady, this is for you!"
Zhao Yunnuan turned around and saw that the person coming was Zhao Shiqing's maid Ling Bo, who was holding a bag in her hand.
Zhao Yunnuan understood immediately that having a smart and considerate little sister is a real winner in life!
A smile flashed across Zhao Yunnuan's face, and then was replaced by majesty and coldness.
Nie Qionghua was directly put into the big bag, and the people around her were strung out in a string. As for the body of Nanny Zhang, Zhao Yunnuan neither asked anyone to put it down nor explained how to deal with it, so she just left it hanging there.
If she doesn't let certain people have nightmares, she will never be able to figure it out.
When Zhao Yunnuan came out of Nie Qionghua's residence, she saw Nie rushing over.
Nie's two hands were clenched tightly together, and because of excessive force, veins bulged and knuckles turned white.
Zhao Yunnuan bowed gracefully and without waiting for Nie to speak, she strode past her.
Nie's body was shaking, and it was difficult for Madam Zheng and the two maids to support her.
Nie's lips trembled continuously until Zhao Yunnuan's figure disappeared into the shadows of the red walls and green trees. Only then did Nie finally regain her strength and shouted hoarsely, "Come here, come here quickly, call the guards, quickly, call the guards over!"
At this time, a young eunuch rushed into the central mourning hall, looked around, and then prostrated himself on the ground and whispered in Zhao Tingxuan's ear: "Second Master, something might have happened in the east."
Today, guests came from far and wide one after another. Zhao Tingxuan was so busy that he didn't even have lunch. He had no idea what was happening in the palace.
Hearing the young eunuch say this, Zhao Tingxuan was startled and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
The young guard lowered his voice and said, "I don't know what happened, but the Second Young Miss came back from outside early in the morning. She first kicked the door of Zhang Ma's house in the back alley, and then sat at the gate of Suining Palace when she returned to the mansion, not letting anyone out. Little Panzi from Suining Palace wanted to go out, but was kicked back by the Second Young Miss.
Later, the eldest princess returned and had the gate to the east road blocked. I don’t know what happened after that.”
Zhao Tingxuan was in a daze. Did he hear it wrong?
His elder sister and younger sister, one blocked the gate of the east road, and the other blocked the gate of Suining Palace. What happened?
Especially Suining Palace, that is my mother’s bedroom. I hope my mother will not be frightened?
Thinking of his frail mother, Zhao Tingxuan lost his patience and stood up and left.
But before he even stepped out of the mourning hall, a eunuch came trotting over: "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, Prince Hejin and the Third Young Master of Beiyan are here!"
Zhao Tingxuan abruptly retracted his steps.
Prince Hejin is the younger brother of the Prince of Northern Yan and the uncle of the third prince of Northern Yan.
Although the King of Northern Yan is a king of a different surname, he is also one of the Eight Kings. He cannot leave his fiefdom without an imperial decree. The Crown Prince of Northern Yan is still held hostage in the capital.
When Prince Liang passed away, Northern Yan would certainly come to pay its respects with the highest standards. Although the third son, Han Song, was only fifteen years old, he was born to the Princess of Northern Yan and was one of the only two legitimate sons of the Prince of Northern Yan.
But Han Song was young after all, so the King of Northern Yan sent the Prince of Hejin to come together.
If only the Third Master Han Song came, Zhao Tingxuan would be able to receive him, but since Prince Hejin also came, Zhao Tingxuan, who had no title, was not qualified.
At this time, it is necessary to invite the widow Nie and the eldest princess Zhao Yunnuan to come out.
Zhao Tingxuan was thinking about Nie, but he couldn't leave now.
He had no choice but to ask Eunuch Liu to go to the east road to report to Nie and Zhao Yunnuan about the arrival of Prince Hejin.
As for the fact that the east road was blocked, Zhao Tingxuan no longer cared whether he could get in or not.
After Zhao Yunnuan left Suining Palace, he did not go anywhere else, but directly locked Nie Qionghua and everyone around her in the dungeon.
However, Zhao Yunnuan did not leave them here like he did to the previous six people.
Nanny Zhang has already died, no one else can die.
But Nie Qionghua refused to cooperate at all. She just screamed and cursed, but refused to say a single useful word.
This is a dungeon, not Suining Palace, so Zhao Shiqing doesn't have to worry.
Seeing Nie Qionghua still screaming, Zhao Shiqing's eyes turned and he had an idea.
At some point, she had taken the little demon out and whispered a few words in its ear. The little demon meowed twice, rubbed its head on her hand, and then ran out, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Everyone's attention was focused on Nie Qionghua, and no one noticed the little movements of the man and the cat.
All I could hear was Nie Qionghua scolding, "Zhao Yunnuan, when I first arrived at the palace, you were still so little, always crying at night. Who was so worried that I went to Qingfeng Temple to get a talisman to ward off disasters and troubles? Although I didn't give birth to you, I watched you grow up. Your father's body is still warm, and you've already attacked your mother's own sister. You servants of the Liang Palace, aren't you afraid of following such a heartless master? Who knows when she'll kill you all!"
Zhao Yunnuan looked at her with a cold gaze, saying nothing. Her subordinates also had wooden faces, and looked at Nie Qionghua with contempt.
Although they don't know what happened yet, the eldest princess and the second young lady are investigating the cause of Prince Liang's death. Today they attacked Nie Qionghua, which means that Prince Liang's death is related to Nie Qionghua.
This second aunt has lived in my sister's house for more than ten years. She is ungrateful and repays kindness with enmity. Who would believe what such a person says?
Seeing that these people were indifferent, Nie Qionghua glanced and saw Zhao Shiqing who was watching the show in the corner. Nie Qionghua immediately directed his fire at Zhao Shiqing.
Although she was scolding Zhao Yunnuan just now, she didn't dare to be too harsh. Zhao Yunnuan was a princess appointed by the emperor, with a rank and a fiefdom, and she was also in charge of the royal guard camp.
If it wasn't absolutely necessary, Nie Qionghua didn't want to confront Zhao Yunnuan.
But Zhao Shiqing was different. She was just an adopted daughter rescued from a beggar.
King Liang took pity on her and provided her with food and clothing so that she could grow up.
They both lived under someone else's roof, but Zhao Shiqing was no match for her aunt.
She is protected by her elder sister who is the princess, and she lives and eats in Suining Palace on a daily basis. But what about Zhao Shiqing?
Haha, she didn't even have the qualifications to live in the palace for a long time. She was sent to the deep mountains and forests at a young age. Although she had the title of the second lady, she was just a wild girl who grew up in the mountains.
What's more, now that Prince Liang is dead, and the princess has always disliked her, there will soon be no place for her in the palace.
Nie Qionghua became excited and cursed at Zhao Shiqing: "I don't know where this bastard came from, but he really thinks he is the master. Are you worthy?"
Zhao Shiqing blinked. "Are you worthy of this? What kind of master are you? Don't you usually look in the mirror? Are you afraid to look in the mirror? Then look in your urine. Urine has everything."
Nie Qionghua......
Everyone...
At this moment, Zhao Shiqing's ears suddenly moved, and she heard a rustling sound. The sound came from far away and was getting closer. It was coming. The gift she gave to Nie Qionghua was coming!
She said to Zhao Yunnuan, "Sister, please find a high place to stand."
Zhao Yunnuan was confused and looked around. There were two octagonal tables in the dungeon, which were used by the guards to eat and take a nap.
Without saying a word, she jumped up with several maids.
