Chapter 416 Ready to Speak
Except the Emperor of Great Chu was happier.
Next is naturally Lu Xing who is late.
[The prince can finally wake up. I thought he would wake up after finding Yue Ran, but it took him several days! ]
[This way, the prince's wedding will not be delayed. I thought it was going to be delayed! ]
[I can go to the prince to redeem my five sets of headgear now! ]
"Mother," Lu Xingwan suddenly spoke up when she thought of this, "Brother."
Song Qingyan, who had heard Lu Xingwan's thoughts a long time ago, smiled and picked Lu Xingwan up from the ground: "Let's go and see Wanwan's prince brother."
"Wanwan is probably still waiting to show off her wealth!"
Speaking of this, Song Qingyan's heart suddenly sank.
Just now she almost blurted out five sets of headgear, but fortunately she controlled herself.
After all, these five sets of headgear represent Wanwan’s inner thoughts.
So when the Emperor of Great Chu arrived at Xingyang Palace, Lu Xingwan and her daughter had already arrived.
Perhaps he had been extremely busy these past few days, so when he saw Song Qingyan and her daughter for the first time, the Emperor of Great Chu seemed to be relieved and smiled at Lu Xingwan.
Crouching down: "Wanwan."
Lu Xingwan also cooperated and went straight to the Emperor of Chu.
After jumping into the arms of the Great Chu Emperor, Lu Xingwan smiled and patted his shoulder: "Father."
【Don't worry, Father. Everything will be alright.】
[Big brother is fine now, I wonder how your Du Yueran is doing now? ]
After hearing what Lu Xingwan said, the Emperor of Great Chu suddenly had the idea of testing her, so he held Lu Xingwan in his arms and sat down in front of the prince's bed.
He looked at the prince with concern: "How do you feel?"
After lying in bed for these days, even if the prince was pretending to be sick, he felt dizzy.
He just smiled and shook his head: "Father, I am fine."
It would have been better if he didn't smile. This smile made his face look even paler.
The Great Chu Emperor was even more distressed: "Thanks to Miss Qionghua, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would really regret it for the rest of my life."
Because he knew that Qiong Hua was a fairy, the Emperor of Great Chu never compared Qiong Hua with other imperial doctors in the palace, but just liked Qiong Hua very much.
After saying this, the Emperor of Great Chu turned and looked at Qiong Hua.
Qiong Hua smiled and bowed: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the prince is doing well now."
[Father, please stop worrying about the Crown Prince. Aren’t you worried and exhausted now?]
The Great Chu Emperor then remembered the important things he wanted to do and nodded: "Jin Yao looks pale, I will bother Miss Qionghua later."
His politeness surprised everyone in the room.
Even Lu Xingwan couldn't help but stretch out her little hand to touch the forehead of the Great Chu Emperor.
[What's wrong with Father? Do you have a fever? ]
[Or has there been too many messy things recently, driving Father crazy? ]
[Could it be possible that he was taken away? ]
The Great Chu Emperor listened to Lu Xingwan's mumbling and said helplessly: "Du Yueran is a stubborn person. I haven't been able to pry her open for two or three days."
Speaking of this, the Emperor of Chu sighed.
"Anyone who can keep silent while being tortured in the imperial palace must have some fortitude."
[That Du Yueran must be no ordinary person! After all, she was able to become one of your six concubines in the storybook, and in this life, she became the queen's maid by some strange coincidence.]
Is this reasonable?
【This shows that the Queen is not a simple person.】
This was the first time that the Emperor of Great Chu heard about Du Yueran in the storybook. He immediately stopped thinking and waited for Lu Xingwan's next words.
[In my opinion, this queen is probably someone from Cheng State, and she is here to take revenge on my father.]
Chengguo?
The Emperor of Great Chu frowned. He had never thought about it in this way.
No, isn't she Shen Ning? How did she become Cheng Guo's woman?
Seeing that His Majesty seemed to be trapped in a vicious circle, Song Qingyan let out a long sigh and finally prepared to speak.
In the past, he had always been reluctant to let His Majesty feel that she was too involved in the former dynasty and the harem. One reason was that it was her nature and she was not willing to pursue fame and fortune.
But even if she didn't pursue fame and fortune, because of her sister and family reasons, His Majesty still supported her to the position of Imperial Concubine, making her the de facto second person in the harem.
Her power even surpassed that of the queen.
Secondly, she also wanted to preserve the Dingguo Marquis Mansion. According to what Wanwan said, she was so cautious in her words and deeds in the story, but in the end she still sent the Dingguo Marquis Mansion into the abyss. If she had been more arrogant, wouldn't it have been even more tragic...
But suddenly, Wanwan's words just now came to my mind.
Wanwan always says that she likes to take things upon herself.
Now it seems that it is.
It is clear in the story that the Dingguo Marquisate was destroyed because of Cui Wen’s false accusation and because of Your Majesty’s suspicion.
To her and the Dingguo Marquisate, there was nothing wrong.
Why should I keep dwelling on these things?
Thinking of this, Song Qingyan cleared her throat and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
[Mother finally figured it out and was ready to speak.]
[It seems that this queen has repeatedly attacked the queen mother and the prince, which has really irritated my mother. ]
[When that queen is brought to justice, I will give her a kick. She even tried to poison me before!]
[No, that's not preparation, it's poison already.]
The Great Chu Emperor received too much information from Lu Xingwan today. He actually never knew that Shen Ning had the courage to poison Wanwan.
Lu Xingwan's words reminded Song Qingyan. She turned around and asked all the servants to leave before she spoke: "Before Shen Ning was crowned queen, I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers that Xinghui once poisoned Wanwan."
The Great Chu Emperor nodded: "Yes."
Could it be that this matter is related to Shen Ning?
"Why do you suddenly bring this up?" The Great Chu Emperor asked very cooperatively.
Song Qingyan did not show any emotion and continued, "Later, I accidentally learned that the medicine came from Jinxiu Palace."
"It was the Queen who did this to Wan Wan, but she just wanted to borrow Xing Hui's help."
"But later she took out the antidote to treat Wanwan. Thinking about it, she did this for only one purpose, which was to make me let down my guard, or even feel grateful and make friends with her."
"I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers that I did strongly recommend her to become the empress."
The Emperor of Great Chu did not speak, and seemed to be lost in deep thought.
"It was only after Qiong Hua entered the palace that I learned about this matter."
"Because I was afraid that I had recommended the wrong person, I had people watching the Jinxiu Palace all the time, fearing that something might go wrong and harm the entire harem."
[Father, listen to this. Mother is so careful not to get angry at you for interfering in the affairs of the six palaces!]
[This harem is really a place where people are taken advantage of. Even someone as cheerful as my mother has become so cautious.]
