Chapter 75 The Prince's Residence is Like This
In Qingyun Palace, when Concubine Chen returned to the palace, the Second Prince was already waiting there.
Concubine Chen Gui naturally knew why he came, so she asked Jinxin and Jinyu to leave first. She just put Lu Xingwan on the bed, stuffed a toy into her hand, and then greeted the Second Prince.
"Empress Chen." The Second Prince naturally came because of Concubine Lan's poisoning. He had always been used to being independent, but when something like this happened, he wanted to find someone to discuss it with, and unknowingly walked to Qingyun Palace.
"Don't worry, Jin Yu. After you leave the palace, I will take good care of your mother in the palace." Seeing that he didn't speak, Concubine Chen broke the deadlock.
The Second Prince shook his head, and after a long while, he seemed to suddenly realize something was wrong, and nodded again. Then he sighed and said, "Empress Chen knows that my mother is a very cautious person, but even so, she was poisoned."
Concubine Chen thought about what Madam Wu had just said to her, and after much hesitation, she finally did not speak to the Second Prince.
Instead of letting him worry, it is better to investigate the matter thoroughly and then inform him.
"My grandfather passed away early, and my mother lost her mother's family to rely on. Now she can only have a place in this palace because of me, the prince." The second prince felt that Empress Chen was extremely trustworthy, and he couldn't help but reveal his true feelings. "But even so, my mother has always been cautious. Why did that person want to harm my mother?"
"The greatest power that mother has is nothing more than the power to assist in managing the six harems!"
As the Second Prince muttered, an idea seemed to flash through Concubine Chen's mind.
Even Lu Xingwan who was standing by couldn't help but look at the Second Prince.
[The power to assist in managing the six palaces, Empress Lan fell ill, probably before the Spring Banquet, and after that, the power to assist in managing the six palaces was handed over to Empress Ning.]
[Empress Ning? Could it be her? But no, she has always been the most indifferent person.]
[Besides, if she really wanted to help manage the six palaces, she has only been in the palace for a short time. If it weren't for my mother and Empress Lan's joint recommendation, my father would definitely not have chosen her.]
Lu Xingwan cursed herself in her heart again, thinking that she shouldn't have doubted Concubine Ning, but rather felt guilty for how good she was to her.
【What was that for? For the Spring Banquet, but what happened at the Spring Banquet? I don’t remember anything.】
[Is it about Shen Baoshuang? Or something else?]
When Lu Xingwan thought of this, his little head shook wildly.
[Forget it, forget it. I don’t want to think about it anymore. My head is going to explode.]
Concubine Chen Guifei’s thoughts are exactly the same as Lu Xingwan’s, so it certainly couldn’t be Concubine Ning, so who could it be?
After all, we have to investigate before we can talk about it, so we can only comfort the Second Prince: "Fortunately, your mother is fine now. I believe that person will not dare to do anything for a while. Don't worry, I will protect your mother as long as I am here."
The Second Prince raised his head to look at Concubine Chen Guifei, but met her eyes and felt relieved in an instant.
I thanked him again and again before leaving Qingyun Palace.
After finding out what was wrong with Concubine Lan, Concubine Chen Gui finally felt relieved.
I have been busy these days, and finally at noon today, I had time to take a nap with Lu Xing.
When Concubine Chen woke up, it was getting dark. Through the light from outside, she saw Lu Xingwan sleeping in her arms and couldn't help but sigh.
I actually gave birth to such a little person.
I could actually hear her inner voice, and she had helped me avoid so many dangers. I guess I was too miserable in the story, and God couldn't bear it anymore, so he sent such a little fairy to save me.
But there has never been peace in the harem. I have to take good care of Wanwan in the future.
Lu Xingwan also woke up at this time, and when she opened her eyes, she met Concubine Chen Gui's eyes.
I couldn't help feeling shy.
[Wow, my mother is so beautiful! ]
[Shame, shame, shame, mother is staring at Wanwan, making her embarrassed. ]
Thinking about this in her heart, she began to snuggle into Concubine Chen's arms. Seeing her like this, Concubine Chen was even happier. She hugged Lu Xingwan and kissed her before stopping.
The mother and daughter got up and packed their things, but it was not yet time for the meal. Concubine Chen suddenly had an idea and told Jinxin and Jinyu to go to the Prince's Palace to see him.
By the time we entered the Prince's Xingyang Palace, the sky was gradually getting dark.
It was Lu Xingwan's first time to visit Xingyang Palace, and she was walking around excitedly in Jin Xin's arms.
[So this is the courtyard where the Crown Prince lives. It has a scholarly vibe to it!]
[I used to wonder what kind of environment a refined person like the prince would like. It turns out to be like this...]
Concubine Chen Guifei standing by was also filled with emotion. This Xingyang Palace was the palace where her sister used to live. It was only after her sister passed away that it was renamed Xingyang Palace so that the prince could live alone.
"This Xingyang Palace is exactly the same as it was when my sister was here." Concubine Chen Gui couldn't help but speak.
[It was actually my aunt’s handwriting. It turns out that my aunt likes such a simple and elegant environment. It is very consistent with her name! ]
[In comparison, my mother's aesthetic taste is so good. 】
Concubine Chen Guifei couldn't help but smile bitterly. Her daughter was really frustrating.
But he was thinking about another question in his mind. Jin Yao respected his sister so much that he never changed the ornaments he wore when his mother was alive. If his sister's death was really related to Concubine De, or even worse, if the Emperor of Great Chu deliberately did not pursue the matter, how should Jin Yao deal with it?
I couldn't help but sigh and looked up at the main hall.
However, the main hall door was now closed, and a woman dressed as a palace maid was standing at the door looking inside stealthily.
"Who is sneaking around?" The palace maid's attention was completely focused on the Prince's palace. She didn't notice the person coming behind her. She was frightened by Concubine Chen's scolding and accidentally pushed the palace door open.
Concubine Chen Guifei took a look and saw that the woman had fallen to the ground with her clothes open. Upon closer inspection, she was wearing a pink gauze dress underneath, her skin was faintly visible, and her red lips made her look very charming.
Seeing this, how could Concubine Chen not know the palace maid's intention.
He immediately got angry: "Jin Yu!"
When the maid saw that it was Concubine Chen and the others, she tried to escape, but her feet were entangled by the cumbersome clothes and she fell to the ground again.
Jinyu had some experience in martial arts, so she strode forward and dragged the palace maid up by the collar.
The maid struggled desperately, shouting, "Your Highness, save me."
Jinyu did not hesitate and took a diaper of Lu Xingwan and stuffed it into the maid's mouth. The maid could only whimper but could not make any sound.
Lu Xingwan was also stunned watching from the side.
[Sister Jinyu is amazing. I didn't expect that Sister Jinyu actually has some kung fu skills. It's just that diaper...hahahaha, what a pitiful palace maid.]
Only then did Concubine Chen walk into the palace.
