Chapter 231: Enjoying the Spring in the Mountains



The nurse slowly collapsed under her sharp gaze: "Miss, why do you say that?"

“Because I have evidence that it wasn’t Shen Biyun who did it, I just want to confirm it from your mouth…” An Qingran’s face was firm, “Of course, if you don’t want to tell the truth, I… I will bring your daughter to see you for the last time.”

An Qingran sneered at the corner of her mouth. At this moment, she was like a devil. She exuded a chilling coldness that made people dare not look directly at her. The wet nurse was stunned. She looked straight at the little girl in front of her, wondering why she was more terrifying when facing her than when facing the general.

She finally couldn't hold on any longer and knelt on the ground: "Miss, spare my life..."

When An Qingran saw her like this, her heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly settled down. Sure enough, this wet nurse was lying. In fact, if she insisted a little longer, she would believe it.

She suddenly wanted to come see her at that time because she always felt something was wrong in her heart, because she felt that Shen Biyun really didn't need to go through so much trouble. Why did she say this about something that was of no benefit to her at all?

Of course, she wanted to know the answer.

So, she kept a straight face and said, "Well, can you tell me the truth now?"

"It was old lady. If someone else had ordered me, I wouldn't dare and wouldn't have done it. But old lady sent someone to order me to do this, and said that she would protect me in the end, so I did this... Miss, I told the truth, you must spare my life. I have a daughter who is too young to lose her mother... I swear to God, I really didn't know that I would harm the young master so miserably. I just thought you would... spare my life." The wet nurse knelt there and cried loudly.

An Qingran was terrified by her crying.

It’s actually an old lady?

Why did she kill her own grandson?

She could hardly believe it, but it was the answer that convinced her the most.

When she returned to the East Warm Pavilion, she hesitated whether to tell her mother about this.

Suddenly, Madam Hong ran in and said, "Madam, something bad has happened to the wet nurse..."

An Qingran was shocked. She had just come out from there. What could happen to her?

"Tell me quickly, what happened?" Lian Jinyu asked anxiously.

"She's mute..." Madam Hong sighed, "The general went to interrogate her just now and wanted her to see the official, but when he entered the room, he found that the corners of her mouth were bloody and a tooth had fallen out. She kept picking her throat and became mute. The doctor came and said that she had eaten earwax. She must be trying to evade responsibility... She is illiterate, so even if she is sent to the official, nothing can be asked of her, and the general can't do anything to her. I didn't expect that she would have such an idea..."

An Qingran didn't think she was hurting herself, she was afraid that it was her grandmother who did it. If she killed her, it would make too much noise, and Shen Biyun would be gone, so she would definitely find out who was responsible. So, she poisoned her and made her mute, so she would have no way to identify her.

No matter what, the connection with the wet nurse was broken, and she hated herself for being so careless. She should have informed her father immediately and confronted her grandmother directly.

She had nothing to say.

But now she feels very sad. They are her grandsons, so why would grandma do that to such a young Mingchen?

Lian Jinyu was silent for a moment after hearing what Madam Hong said: "Well, I didn't intend to kill her. I will tell the general that this matter is over. She was punished, but she took the punishment for others. The murderer behind it did not get away with it and is very free."

An Qingran didn't say anything, she had her own thoughts.

Madam Hong sighed for a while, and Lian Jinyu suddenly said, "Please help me keep an eye on those concubines. If anyone has any problems, tell me immediately. I don't want my children to be in any danger again. Now that the external ghost is gone, we have to be on guard against the internal ghost as well."

"Yes, ma'am."

After Madam Hong left, Lian Jinyu hugged Mingchen and said, "Qingran, your brother's condition is almost healed. I really hope that the General's Mansion will be peaceful from now on. I don't have the strength to deal with those people..."

"Mother, don't give up. Your younger brother is waiting for your protection. You were very good at guarding against those concubines just now. Of course, we can't take the people in Beiyuan lightly either..."

"Why? Did you find something?"

"Grandma has never been happy with us..."

"Your grandmother probably likes your uncle too much. It's not good for parents to be partial to one another." Lian Jinyu sighed.

An Qingran thought to herself, no matter how biased parents are, they would not be so biased as to kill their own grandson.

At the same time, An Zhongtao also had his own opinion about his mother. He just didn't understand why his mother did this.

The General's Mansion was really quiet for a while, so time passed quickly.

It was a fine day.

An Qingran suddenly received a letter, which was an invitation letter from Dongfang Ruoxue and Lou Wanyue, inviting her to go to Yuehua Temple to burn incense.

An Qingran asked her parents for permission before preparing to travel.

Unexpectedly, this news was known by An Yanran. She had stayed in the general's mansion for too long and she also wanted to go out. Moreover, it was the invitation from the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. Naturally, the people who would go with her would be the best of the best. Maybe Dongfang Ye would also go. She hadn't seen her cousin for a long time.

Unexpectedly, when she heard the news, An Ranyue also heard it. She also told the old lady that it was a gathering of upper-class people and she wanted to go too. So on the day An Qingran left, An Yanran and An Ranyue rode in the same carriage and followed behind An Qingran.

Yuehua Temple.

The green willows are like a woven fabric, and the wild flowers dotted on the distant mountains look like a tapestry hanging there in the distance.

As An Qingran got off the car, Dongfang Ruoxue and Lou Wanyue approached with a smile: "Qingran, this spring tour will lose a lot of fun without you."

An Qingran smiled. Dongfang Ruoxue had grown taller and looked even more stunning. The same was true for Lou Qiyue. After not seeing each other for such a short time, everyone had changed, and they were all welcome changes.

"Who will come to enjoy the spring and pray for blessings this time?" An Qingran looked at the long line of carriages with some confusion.

Lou Wanyue stepped forward and said, "Originally, we were jokingly inviting only you and Miss Qin to come together, but when Princess Dongfang proposed, her brother, Prince Dongfang, became worried and wanted to come along for protection. Later, when they heard that he was coming, Prince Kang, Prince Ning and others also came along. I wonder if the Crown Prince came..."

Lou Wanyue looked around while talking. As her eyes moved, she suddenly saw a graceful figure walking towards her from the team behind her. Her face suddenly turned red. An Qingran followed her gaze and looked over curiously, but saw Dongfang Run smiling at her indifferently. She nodded slightly, and when she saw Dongfang Ye behind him, An Qingran withdrew her gaze.

Since the last palace banquet, the man she hated the most was killed, and the only one left was Dongfang Ye.

I really didn't expect him to come.
