Chapter 52: Searching the Palace



Chapter 52: Searching the Palace

[I never thought that Concubine Wen was such a warm-hearted person. She really is warm-hearted even though she looks warm-hearted! ]

At this time, Jinyu, who had just informed Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju, came back and said, "How could your Majesty believe Concubine Wen's words so much? In the harem..."

Before Jinyu finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Chen Guifei.

"Come to think of it, Concubine Wen has always been kind to me. I guess she's grateful for my father's life-saving grace!"

[Hmm? There is such a thing? Please tell me more, mother.]

Lu Xingwan had not seen much about Concubine Wen in the storybooks and thought she was just an unimportant supporting role. But now that she heard her mother talk about her, she became curious.

When Concubine Chen Guifei heard Lu Xingwan say this, she pretended to talk to Jinyu.

"Several decades ago, when my father was guarding the border between Yuefeng and Dali, it happened that Yuefeng and Dali were negotiating peace. It was a common thing, but unexpectedly, Yuefeng had already set up an ambush. Their faces suddenly changed, and they actually captured the peace envoy and used it to seize Dali."

As Concubine Chen Guifei spoke, she glanced at Lu Xingwan and saw that her big eyes were shining and she was listening attentively.

"The peace envoy is none other than Concubine Wen's biological brother, the fifth prince of the Dali Kingdom. He is now a prince."

"Father saw that Yuefeng was trying to stir up trouble, so he sent troops immediately to prevent the people of Great Chu from being harmed. This put Yuefeng in a dilemma, and in the end they had no choice but to release the peace envoy."

"From then on, the two countries no longer had any contact with each other. However, with the presence of Great Chu, both families were safe and sound."

"It was also to thank my father for sending troops that the Dali Kingdom sent Concubine Wen to the Dachu Kingdom, and we have been in friendly exchanges since then."

"How could this happen?" Jinyu sighed in her heart. She never thought that Concubine Wen had such a connection with her own queen.

Lu Xingwan seemed to suddenly remember something.

[Ah, I suddenly have some impression. It turns out that when the Dingguo Marquis' family was framed for treason, the fourth prince came forward to plead for mercy, but was also rebuked by the Emperor of Great Chu. It turned out that it was because of his mother, Concubine Wen.]

[At that time, I was wondering how the fourth prince suddenly appeared, and the story suddenly became complete! ]

[However, I don’t know if Helian Hengxin can maintain the current situation after he ascends the throne. ]

Concubine Chen Guifei was a little helpless. She was telling her own personal experiences here, and it was like watching a play every night.

Not long after, Zhu Ying came in with a small object in his hand: "Miss, is this it?"

As he said this, he handed the thing in his hand to Concubine Chen Guifei.

When Concubine Chen Guifei took it, she couldn't help but take a breath of cool air.

It turned out to be a little witch figurine with the birth date of the Emperor of Chu written on it.

This is really murderous. Although Concubine Chen does not believe these things, if the things were found in her own yard, His Majesty has been having a headache recently, how could he not be suspicious.

If he had any doubts, then the prince...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder. It seemed that she had thought too much of the people in the harem.

"Where did you find it?" Concubine Chen Gui's face turned cold and she looked at Zhuying.

"It is buried under the osmanthus tree in front of the courtyard."

"Send this item intact to Mr. Yun's house."

Then he stood up again and took a long breath, "Let's go, Jinyu, since the stage has been set up, there is no reason for me not to go up."

After saying that, he looked at Lu Xingwan again: "Wanwan, do you want to go with mother?"

Lu Xingwan nodded quickly.

[Yes, yes, yes, such an exciting scene cannot be without me. 】

Concubine Chen smiled, picked up Lu Xingwan, and strode towards Concubine Wen's Hanguang Palace.

Everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Wen would not get involved in these messy affairs, so no one reported it to her.

Concubine Chen and her entourage went straight to Concubine Fang's side palace.

But he saw that the Emperor of Great Chu was already sitting at the table.

"Greetings to His Majesty." Concubine Chen took Lu Xingwan to pay her respects, then handed her to Jinyu behind her. She then looked at Concubine Fang on the bed and said, "I heard that Concubine Fang had a miscarriage. What happened?"

Yun Guiren, who was standing at the side, snorted coldly: "Your Highness, why don't you ask yourself what's wrong?"

Concubine Chen looked puzzled: "What does Lord Yun mean by this?"

At this moment, the noble lady on the bed seemed to have just seen Concubine Chen. She retreated to the side of the bed in fear, muttering to herself, "Please let me go, please let me go...Princess Yong'an is already so favored, why bother to pester her?"

"Heh..." Concubine Chen sneered and sat down, "Why don't you tell me how I entangled you?"

Concubine Fang still looked terrified: "Please let me go, Madam Concubine..."

However, Lady Yun stood up to support Lady Fang: "Sister Fang is already like this, why does Your Majesty have to keep forcing her?"

Concubine Chen was disdainful: "According to your opinion, what should we do?"

"I used to learn Taoism from my grandmother at home. Now I think there seems to be something ominous in the palace." Yun Guiren said decisively, "First, your majesty had a headache, and now Concubine Fang is pregnant. Previously, there was Prince Rong..."

Having said this, she knew she shouldn't say any more and just let His Majesty think about it.

"What do you think, Your Majesty?" The smile in Concubine Chen's eyes became even more intense. Concubine Yun's move today was directed at her. If Concubine Wen hadn't come to tell her, she would have fallen into Concubine Yun's trap today.

The Great Chu Emperor, however, did not seem to care: "It's just nonsense."

Concubine Chen Guifei said, "Since Lady Yun said so, I think it would be better to search the palace."

When Guiren Yun heard this, he could not hide his joy. He had thought that he would have to put in more effort, but he did not expect that Guifei Chen would take the initiative to propose searching the palace, which saved him a lot of effort.

When I looked at Concubine Chen Guifei, my eyes were full of pride. From today onwards, I will make you fall from the clouds.

"No." The Great Chu Emperor immediately felt that something was wrong. If he really searched the Qingyun Palace, even if there were any witchcraft items, he would not be able to deal with them. He was afraid that it would cause suspicion between him and Concubine Chen for no reason.

"Your Majesty, to reassure the noble lady, why don't you search my palace first?"

Yun Guiren was extremely happy, and fearing that Concubine Chen would regret it, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is really frank."

Lu Xingwan’s complaints came late but certainly not late.

[Look at your smug look. You and that Shupin had no good intentions in the past. You always wanted to harm mother secretly. Now you are so bold.]

[When your mother finds evidence that you framed her, I'll see how your father will punish you.]

[Father is also a bad man. He clearly has doubts in his heart, but he still says that he trusts mother and that you can investigate if you want. He is a man who is not honest at all.]

"Puff..." When the Great Chu Emperor heard Lu Xingwan's inner thoughts, he immediately spat out the tea he had just drunk.

Then I comforted myself, children’s words are without restraint, children’s words are without restraint.
