Chapter 218 He is quite sensible

Guo Ping just shook his head and turned back to his study.

This jade beads belonged to Prime Minister Cui, who gave it to Guo Ping when he was promoted to the Minister of Revenue.

This was the token of allegiance that Guo Ping presented to the Third Prince.

I think the Third Prince will understand when he sees this.

When Guo Ping was in despair, news of the Third Prince's actions outside the palace today reached the palace.

When the Emperor of Great Chu received the news, he was having dinner with Song Qingyan and Lu Xingwan in Qingyun Palace.

Because the Emperor of Great Chu's headache had improved, he was less dependent on the Empress. He only went to the Jinxiu Palace to accompany the Empress on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month as a symbolic gesture.

But I don’t come to Qingyun Palace often.

Most of the time, the Emperor of Great Chu stayed in his own Longsheng Palace.

At this time, Lu Xingwan was sitting on a chair with her little feet waving. Anyway, she was still at the age of drinking milk, so even if she ate, she would just eat some liquid food with Song Qingyan.

"Your Majesty," Meng Quande said softly as he stood beside the Great Chu Emperor, "The Third Prince left the palace today."

The Great Chu Emperor frowned upon hearing this and turned to look at Meng Quande: "What is he doing out of the palace?"

Meng Quande looked up at the Imperial Consort and saw that she was concentrating on feeding Princess Yong'an, and His Majesty did not seem to care about saying these words around the Empress.

Without further hesitation, he said, "I thought I was just out for a stroll, but I happened to run into the wife of the Minister of Personnel seeking justice outside Jingzhao Prefecture."

Lu Xingwan listened to Meng Quande's words so attentively that he didn't even bother to eat.

[Speak quickly, don't breathe heavily while speaking, it makes me anxious. 】

"Seek justice?" The Great Chu Emperor was already accustomed to Lu Xingwan's "nonsense" and was not affected by her at all.

[Oh? Mrs. Lin is so smart? She figured out who did it so quickly?]

Seeing that Lu Xingwan seemed to know about this matter, the Great Chu Emperor wanted to test him, so he continued to ask, "What injustice do you want to seek?"

"I heard that she was Lord Lin's daughter, who was abducted by someone. I don't know what happened to her, but she was killed and thrown into a mass grave."

Meng Quande seemed a little regretful when he said this.

"Mrs. Lin was so heartbroken that she fainted several times. When she woke up, she wanted to report to the authorities, but she happened to run into the Third Prince outside Jingzhao Prefecture."

"What did Jinchen say?" The Emperor of Great Chu seemed to be listening to a story.

"His Highness the Third Emperor said he would make the decision for Madam Lin, and even ordered the Governor of Jingzhao, Lord Zhao, to immediately open a court to hear the case."

"During this time, Lord Lin tried to stop it, but was scolded by the Third Prince."

The Great Chu Emperor nodded upon hearing this: "He has become much more sensible."

"Now, the common people outside are praising Your Majesty for the good parenting!" Meng Quande smiled ingratiatingly and looked at the Emperor of Great Chu.

[Isn't he just pretending to be so nice for his father? ]

[After suffering so many setbacks in the palace these days, I finally sent a gift that pleased my grandmother, but it was ruined by his sister.]

【Now I have learned to find another way. 】

【But he was lucky to have encountered such a thing.】

[It's a good thing, I hope this Jingzhao prefect can succeed! ]

Lu Xingwan's mumbling actually touched the heart of the Emperor of Great Chu.

Now he really doesn't have much trust in Jinchen. He had given him so many chances before, but he had disappointed him every time.

But now that he is willing to do a good thing, let him do it!

The Emperor of Great Chu did not have too high hopes on the Third Prince after all, so he would not be disappointed even if he failed.

After the Emperor of Great Chu left, Song Qingyan called Mei Ying over and asked her in detail about what had happened outside today.

"The third prince went to the Guo Mansion again?" Song Qingyan asked in surprise after hearing this.

What was said before was basically the same as Meng Quande's report, but the latter point was indeed something Song Qingyan had not expected.

"Yes, the Third Prince stayed in the Guo Mansion for less than a cup of tea before coming out. I was worried, so I watched him for a while. When it was getting dark, an attendant of Guo Ping came to the palace." As for what he was doing, it was something that happened after he entered the Changqiu Palace, so Mei Ying had no idea.

Song Qingyan was silent for a long time, and finally waved her hand to let Meiying go out, then turned around and told Jinxin who was standing beside her: "Go and call Qionghua."

Although it was late at night, Qiong Hua came to Song Qingyan without complaint.

"I am sorry to bother Miss Qionghua so late at night," Song Qingyan was really worried, "I have something to ask Miss Qionghua for help."

"Just tell me, Your Majesty." Qiong Hua always responded to Song Qingyan's requests.

It is a great blessing to meet such a good master in the capital.

"My mother will go to the Lin Mansion tomorrow to pay her respects to Lin Yin. I thought of asking you to pretend to be my mother's maid and go and see for me what kind of injuries Lin Yin has suffered." Song Qingyan really wanted to know the extent of Lin Yin's injuries, although it was no longer meaningful, and Wanwan had already told her the truth of the matter, but after all, she had not seen it with her own eyes.

She really wanted to know what kind of torture He Yunyao wanted to give Rong Wenmiao.

Qiong Hua naturally agreed.

For her, it doesn't matter where she is, it's also good to go out for a walk.

At this time, the Qingyun Palace was indeed peaceful, but it was different in the Jinxiu Palace.

Shen Ning really had no time to care about anything else these past two days and was busy dealing with the new Sixth Princess.

Lu Xinghui originally disliked Shen Ning very much.

He felt that she had taken the position that his mother had always dreamed of, and even though she was really nice to him now, it was not acceptable.

So during the first two days after entering the Jinxiu Palace, Shen Ning could hardly have a moment of peace, as she cried and clamored to go back to the Rongle Palace and also shouted to go back to the Changqiu Palace.

I would be woken up by her during lunch break, and even in the middle of the night.

But she was a princess, not his own daughter. No matter how fierce he was to her, he could not hit her.

I couldn't tell His Majesty either. After all, I was Lu Xinghui's mother and the empress of a country. If I couldn't even handle such a small matter, wouldn't His Majesty question my ability?

I had to endure it.

On this day, Bai Ling came up and said, "Your Majesty, I used to serve Consort De, and I often met the Sixth Princess. Why don't I go and persuade the Princess?"

"Go quickly." Shen Ning was now driven crazy by the torture, and waved his hand to let Bai Ling go and take a look.

Now, no matter who it is, as long as they can make the Sixth Princess behave herself, she will be grateful.

When Bai Zhi entered the Sixth Princess' room, the Sixth Princess threw a pillow at her again: "I told you to get out!"

"Sixth Princess." Bai Zhi spoke softly.

Lu Xinghui was very familiar with Bai Zhi's voice. He turned around and looked at the person in front of him in surprise: "Sister Bai Zhi!"

In fact, she liked Bai Wei more in the past, because Sister Bai Zhi always put her heart on Concubine De.
