Chapter 261 The Third Prince's Helper
After listening to Lu Xingwan's mumbling, Song Qingyan looked at Pei Chuyan with a smile: "It seems that you are much more lively now."
Pei Chuyan's eyes froze slightly after hearing what the Imperial Concubine said, but then he smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have worried you."
After they talked a little more about the He family, Pei Chuyan said goodbye and went to the Prince's Xingyang Palace.
This matter is of great importance, so it would be best to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
After all, it was Pei Chuyan who planned it, so he naturally knew the details better.
As for what to say and what not to say, he naturally knew it in his mind.
Song Qingyan looked at Pei Chuyan's receding back, but she remained in the same posture without moving.
She knew that Pei Chuyan had concealed many things about He Yunyao, and she also knew in her heart that the person who sent He Yunyao to this secret kiln must be Pei Chuyan.
But she didn't ask much.
Now that the children have grown up and have their own ideas, she shouldn't interfere too much.
When Song Qingyan was lost in thought, Jinyu knocked on the door and came in, saying softly, "Madam, Zhuying is here."
Only then did Song Qingyan come back to her senses.
Along with the bamboo shadows comes the plum shadows.
Lu Xingwan couldn't help muttering as it seemed like he hadn't seen plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum gathered together for a long time.
[It has been a long time since my mother summoned my four sisters, Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju.]
[Sister Qionghua seems to like Sister Meiying very much! 】
Lu Xingwan really hated herself for not being able to speak. She wanted to rush to Qiong Hua and tell her: "Sister Qiong Hua, it's me, Wanwan."
Having said this, Lu Xingwan actually stumbled towards Zhu Ying.
Zhu Ying quickly extended her hand to greet the young man, then raised her head and looked at Song Qingyan in front of her: "Miss..."
His face was filled with the words "Miss, help me!"
Song Qingyan, however, had no intention of saving her, and even urged Lu Xingwan to ask her for a hug: "Wanwan, just go and ask your sister Zhuying for a hug. I'm afraid that sister Zhuying has never hugged a child before."
Lu Xingwan is not an obedient person.
When he heard Song Qingyan say this, he turned around and ran to Song Qingyan, climbed on her, and insisted on being hugged by her.
Song Qingyan smiled helplessly and picked her up.
Zhuying breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little lost in his heart.
After all, who wouldn’t like such a soft and cute little doll like the little miss?
Song Qingyan then asked, "Why are you here together?"
Zhu Ying then said in a serious tone, "I have been following the young lady's orders to keep an eye on the Third Prince. I have almost sorted out his connections, so I came to report to the queen."
Each of the four people, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, has his own "little brothers" beside him.
Therefore, they don't need to interfere in many things, and the people around them will naturally investigate the matter clearly.
The only thing is that these "little brothers" around them are also women like them.
It was just as Song Qingyan wished, to provide a shelter for homeless women all over the world.
Song Qingyan didn't say anything, but just looked in the direction of the bamboo shadows.
Lu Xingwan was the same, but his gaze was a little more fiery than Song Qingyan's.
"Now, the Minister of Finance Guo Ping, the Minister of Works He Yong, and the Minister of Personnel Lin Hecheng have already joined the Third Prince's school."
Seeing that Song Qingyan didn't say anything, Zhuying continued speaking.
"Guo Ping used to be a student of Prime Minister Cui. He followed Prime Minister Cui and did a lot for him. It is normal for the Third Prince to have evidence against him. As for what evidence it is, it is difficult to find out after so much time."
"He Yong and Lin Hecheng were originally grasshoppers on the same rope. He Yong was controlled by the Third Prince because of his daughter's plot to kill Lin Yin, so he had to obey."
"But Lin Hecheng did it for power."
"Now, relying on the influence of the Third Prince, he has been promoted from the Minister of Personnel to the Minister of Personnel."
"In front of the Third Prince, Lin Hecheng is more powerful than He Yong."
Song Qingyan then sneered and said, "That's normal. He Yong had no choice but to do it, and Lin Hecheng did it for power. As far as Yu Jinchen is concerned, Lin Hecheng is more reliable."
"There is one more person," Zhu Ying spoke again, "Does your Majesty still remember Zhao Saiyuan?"
【Remember, remember.】
Before Song Qingyan could speak, Lu Xingwan spoke first.
This little girl is becoming more and more naughty now.
Song Qingyan nodded and motioned Zhuying to continue.
"Since he returned to the capital, he has been recommended by our old marquis to be the Minister of War, and now he has also joined the Third Prince."
This was indeed something Song Qingyan had not expected.
Naturally, Lu Xingwan did not expect this.
[Is this person not very smart? Doesn't the story say that this person is the best at taking advantage of others? ]
[Now that the Crown Prince is in his prime, why doesn't he try to curry favor with the Crown Prince instead of going to the Third Prince who has nowhere to rely on.]
[Ah, it seems this is fate! ]
[No matter how things change, the third prince will always seize the throne, and Zhao Saiyuan will always be the villain.]
Song Qingyan asked, "Did Zhao Saiyuan take the initiative to join Jinchen, or did Jinchen find Zhao Saiyuan?"
This point is very important to Song Qingyan.
Although she didn't like Zhao Saiyuan, he was once her father's subordinate and had been with her father for many years.
If he was held hostage by the Third Prince for some reason, Song Qingyan would definitely find a way to rescue him from the dire straits.
[Mother, do you still think that Zhao Saiyuan is a good person? ]
[In the story, he is just a traitor who was involved in the assassination of the crown prince. It would be better to kill him right from the beginning. ]
[Now I have brought myself so much trouble for no reason. 】
Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but sigh.
This actually scared Meiying and Zhuying who were standing by. How could the young lady be so sentimental at such a young age?
However, Lu Xingwan didn't notice the two people's gazes at all and continued to pout and complain.
[Forget it, life is never smooth sailing.]
[Fight, fight, mother, we must cheer up and fight the evil forces to the end! ]
Lu Xingwan was suddenly stunned for a moment, feeling that the words sounded familiar.
Who said that? Or did you read it in a storybook?
But it doesn't matter anymore.
After listening to Lu Xingwan's last words, Song Qingyan suddenly felt relieved.
She has been feeling upset these days, thinking that it is her and the prince's indecision that has led to so many variables today.
But Wanwan is right, variables always exist and nothing can go smoothly.
Zhu Ying saw the young lady looking at him, so he continued, "It was Zhao Saiyuan who came to see the Third Prince in person."
Song Qingyan nodded and understood the key.
This is what the saying goes, wealth and honor are found in danger!
