Chapter 273 What will happen if the emperor finds out?
Jian Ruocheng looked at her somewhat dim eyes, was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Sometimes, the emperor may have his own considerations when doing things."
“…”
Nan Yan didn't say anything else. After a moment of silence, she slowly placed the jade seal on the imperial edict.
This, after all, is her job.
Jian Ruocheng put away the imperial edict and watched her carefully put away the jade seal.
He said, "Nan Yan, please think carefully about what I just said."
"Um."
Nan Yan nodded gently: "Thank you."
“…”
Jian Ruocheng looked at her increasingly haggard expression and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it and just turned and left.
But what he didn't see was that just after he left Shangbaosi, a figure hiding in the other corner slowly walked out, glanced at the dazed Si Nanyan inside, and ran quickly towards Chonghua Palace.
Wu Wan and Gao Yurong were still sitting together drinking tea.
However, the sweet tea did not make them feel any better. Wu Wan said coldly, "That idiot Du Siyao is just hiding in the Shangbao Division. She can't do anything to Si Nanyan."
“…”
"It's like a hopeless case of failing to support a wall!"
Although Gao Yurong also knew that in this situation, no one could do anything to Si Nanyan unless she was the Queen, she still agreed repeatedly: "That's right, I have failed the Queen's kindness."
Wu Wan said with a dark face, "My intentions are fine. The important thing is that my father also helped her brother get the position of Minister of Works."
“…”
"If I had known... humph!"
Everyone knows that when Zhu Feng entered Jinling, there was a fire in the palace. Several palaces, including Jiaotai Hall, one of the three major halls, were burned down. The reconstruction work afterwards was a big deal.
The Ministry of Industry has a lot of money to gain from this kind of thing.
Gao Yurong said, "I heard that the ministers in the court are very opposed to this matter."
"Of course, not only did her father and brother oppose her, but even the fact that she entered the palace as a concubine was widely publicized."
Wu Wan said coldly, "She is notorious now."
"Then Madam..."
"It's okay. I just wanted to use her to deal with Si Nanyan."
“…”
"If she can deal with Si Nanyan, that would be great. If not, she'd just be a useless pawn, along with her brother, to be thrown away."
Gao Yurong immediately smiled and said, "That's exactly it."
Just then, the little prince and the little chess piece ran in from outside.
"Your Majesty, Concubine An."
When Wu Wan saw him running out of breath, she immediately asked, "What's wrong? What did you find out?"
The little chess piece stepped forward and saluted, then said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I just arrived outside the Shangbao Division and saw Si Nanyan inside. But a moment later, Jian Ruocheng went in."
"Master Jane? What is he doing in there?"
"Let Si Nanyan stamp the imperial edict."
"What's this?"
"Of course it's nothing," the little chess piece said with a sly look on his face, "but I heard something very important."
"What?"
"Lord Jian asked Si Nanyan if she was willing to leave the palace and go with him to his home."
"What?"
Wu Wan was startled and immediately sneered, "It seems that this bitch Si Nanyan not only seduced the emperor, but also the ministers in the court."
Gao Yurong was also startled, but quickly came to her senses.
She smiled at Wu Wan and said, "Your Majesty, what will happen if the Emperor knows about this?"
