For three days, the general's mansion was silent and An Yanran did not leave the house.
Since the power had been handed over to her, Lian Jinrong simply paid her respects to the old lady and Lian Jinyu as usual and did not take any other actions.
Everyone knows.
They were waiting for news from King Kang.
Yes, An Zhongtao should have reported back to the emperor immediately, but considering the friendship between Prince Kang and the General's Mansion, he felt that he had to discuss the matter with them first.
An Zhongtao couldn't go directly to Concubine Shu, and because this matter involved Lian Jinrong's cousin, Lian Jinyu didn't want to show up!
That's why it has been delayed.
An Yanran was in her own yard, extremely anxious. An Ranyue came to visit her and put the cakes on the table as soon as she entered the house: "Yanran, why don't you come out of the house? Let me tell you, at this time, you can't belittle yourself..."
"Who said I was self-deprecating?" An Yanran smiled and sat up straight. "I'm just resting my mind. Besides, what happened is a mixed blessing. It's not all bad. Also, I was tricked by someone. It's not like I have no shame. How could I be self-deprecating?"
An Ranyue was speechless. She felt that she deserved it. Why did she come here to see her ugly face and listen to her nonsense!
She just swallowed her anger!
An Ranyue just smiled and said, "I was overly worried. Since Yanran has let it go, I am waiting for your good news!"
An Yanran smiled and said, "You can let it go? Haha, how can I not let it go? Logically speaking, I would be sad if something like this happened, but don't you think about who I am? I won't do such stupid things. I want to be good. Being framed and not knowing how to fight back is already infuriating enough. How can I let the person behind it be proud again?"
"Your statement... Could it be that what you said that day was all true? Was your tea replaced by someone?" An Ranyue asked in surprise, "Could it really be An Qingran? How could she be so vicious?"
An Yanran did not deny it either, she just sneered: "I am not the only one who has been envied since ancient times. It's just that I simply trust people, so such a disaster happened."
"If trusting others is a mistake, I don't know what to do in this world. At least I don't know. Two days ago, I chatted with her, and I didn't see anything special about her. She was just cold to others, which made me unconsciously close to you, sister. It seems that we are the same kind of people after all... We can't afford to marry the eldest son and daughter of the general's mansion." An Ranyue sighed.
An Yanran was quite satisfied with what she said.
After all, she came here just to laugh at herself. Fortunately, she knew that no matter how big the trouble was, it would not benefit her. Everyone would always hide behind the halo of the legitimate daughter.
Let’s talk about Dongfang Jin.
He heard about Prince Kang in the palace and found it very strange. That day, he was chatting with An Qingran in the Wangfeng Tower. After only a few words, An Qingran suddenly said that she had something else to do and left.
He was looking at her back and was stunned for a while. It was she who asked him to come here, and now it was also she who left him behind. What urgent matter did she have?
But as for An Qingran, he always felt that this little maid was very profound. Perhaps she had her own plans for everything she did, so he just felt puzzled for a moment and left early.
So he didn't see the good show that happened later.
Although he didn't know what happened, he always felt that something was wrong. He found it even more incredible for King Kang. He was not the kind of person who would eat anything when he was so hungry. In his impression, although he was not very low-key, he was also a very cautious person. How could he make a mistake in front of so many people?
Something must have happened!
So, this aroused his interest, and he secretly sent people to investigate the whole matter.
Soon, he received the news that he and An Qingran were almost framed that day!
If An Qingran hadn't discovered it early, it might have been him and An Qingran who were caught cheating by Lian Jinrong that day!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder. If he and An Qingran were caught, then his position as the crown prince would be criticized. If the ministers complained, his father would be embarrassed and might even feel disgusted with him. Of course, he was also known for being a playboy before, but his father understood him, and it was all just hearsay. His father had refuted those censors more than once, but this time, if he was caught, his father would be powerless even if he wanted to defend himself...
Although the Emperor knew that he was murdered before he was born, he also understood that what he did was only superficial. He just let people relax their vigilance while he had been investigating in secret. The last assassination incident made the Emperor look at him differently. He knew that he had acted very properly, which made his heart ache for him even more. Therefore, wanting to destroy him in this way was definitely a dangerous and effective trick!
The more Dongfang Jin thought about it, the angrier and more frightened he became. He didn't know who had planned this plan, but now it seemed that Prince Kang was involved. Maybe something went wrong in some link, otherwise, how could he and An Yanran be caught?
Is it An Yanran or Prince Kang?
No matter who she is, An Yanran will definitely be married to King Kang now. They are his common enemies!
He believed that Prince Kang was definitely not innocent. After he returned to the palace from Yuehua Temple, he showed his courtesy to An Qingran several times. Don't think he didn't know, he just ignored him at that time!
Dongfang Jinsi thought about it and felt that she would not just let this matter go. It would be fine if she just touched him, but she even dared to touch An Qingran!
Thinking of this, he was stunned for a moment. Is An Qingran really more important than himself?
Thinking of that stubborn little girl, the corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled beautifully.
The An Mansion finally received the emperor's edict. Because of Prince Kang's request, the emperor gave An Yanran to him as a concubine, and she would marry Prince Kang after she reached the age of 15.
When An Yanran heard the news, her face changed several times. She was indeed mentally prepared that she could not become King Kang's principal wife, but she did not expect that when she really heard the news, she still could not help but go crazy. She hated King Kang's ruthlessness and An Qingran's cunning. She must have gotten what she wanted now. She ended up like this and there was nothing she could do but blame others!
The betrothal gift sent by Prince Kang's Mansion was not generous. An Zhongtao knew that he was at a disadvantage but he only hated his wife and daughter. He was not stupid. In addition, the facts analyzed by Lian Jinyu made him aware of the conspiracy of Lian Jinrong and her daughter, but he had no evidence. Besides, this could be regarded as a family disgrace. There was nothing he could do, but his heart towards them was cooled.
