"I'm afraid Madam Pang doesn't want to see him. How did he treat Madam Pang in the past? Madam Pang has long since broken off all ties with him. How can she still recognize him as her father?" Chen Qingxuan said slowly, pausing for a moment before continuing. "Besides, there is only Madam Pang in the world now. How can there be Xiao An? Moreover, this is the capital. With so many eyes watching, Madam Pang will naturally not meet him."
"Yes, An Zishang totally disregarded the relationship between father and daughter. He even attacked his own daughter. He deserved the fate he has now," Kong Wenmin nodded. He paused. Then he sighed, "But in just a few months, many things have happened. I'm afraid Madam Pang must be feeling miserable."
Chen Qingxuan didn't say anything. He lowered his head and looked at the tea leaves in the cup. After a while, he nodded and said, "Yes, we are not in Ningguta. But she, a pregnant woman, witnessed the murder of three elderly people. I think Mrs. Pang must have been very distressed during this period. Maybe this time when she returns to the capital, she will hear the news of An Zishang's death. Alas! Mrs. Pang may not have a good year."
"Fortunately, Pang Yi is with her. Besides, don't they have a child now? Everything will be fine," Kong Wenmin looked at Chen Qingxuan's drooping eyebrows and immediately cursed himself in his heart for being sick. Why did he bring up such a heavy topic for no reason? He hurriedly changed the subject and asked Chen Qingxuan with a smile, "By the way, Qingxuan, how is Zhou Youan doing in the imperial mausoleum now?"
When the late emperor was buried in the imperial mausoleum, Zhong Mingwei ordered Zhou Youan, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards who was loyal to the late emperor, to stay and guard the mausoleum.
"It's definitely not that great," Chen Qingxuan recalled the scene when Zhou Youan was obviously shocked and angry, but had to hold back and verbally thank him. He couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, looking at Kong Wenmin and said, "How can he be so confident and have such a big face that I would keep a scum like him by my side and use him, and even hand over the Imperial Guards to him?"
"He thought that with Prince Rong's head and the imperial edict, he could become a top-notch minister beside me. But he didn't know that Prince Rong's life or death was no threat to me. Besides, would I care about the imperial edict?" Kong Wenmin pursed his lips sarcastically, and said, "But now he is still alive, which is too easy for him. In my opinion, he should be killed and torn to pieces to avenge Commander Ma."
"For him, letting him waste his life in the imperial mausoleum is definitely more torturous than taking his life directly, hum," Chen Qingxuan sneered, and suddenly seemed to remember something, looking at Kong Wenmin with a smile, "By the way, do you know? The Emperor sent a group of new guards to the imperial mausoleum a few days ago. Although Prince Rong committed heinous crimes, he is a royal flesh and blood after all. The Emperor showed mercy and allowed him to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, so naturally some of the guards from Prince Rong's mansion were sent there."
"I know that too," Kong Wenmin nodded with a smile, "In this case, Zhou Youan's life will be even more difficult."
Yes, everyone knew that Zhou Youan had killed Prince Rong, so how could the guards of Prince Rong's mansion let him go? So one can imagine what kind of situation Zhou Anru was in in the imperial mausoleum.
"Okay, then I'll go back first." After talking for a while, Chen Qingxuan stood up and was about to say goodbye.
"I have to go back too, so why don't we go together?" Kong Wenmin stood up hurriedly, and happily followed Chen Qingxuan out.
"Who is going the same way as you? One is going east and the other is going north," Chen Qingxuan frowned and looked at Kong Wenmin, waving his hand impatiently, "Let's go our separate ways."
"I... I just happened to be going to Renhuitang to get some medicine! It's on my way!" Kong Wenmin said hurriedly, covering his arm with his hand and grinning, "I hurt my hand during military training this morning. Ouch! It hurts so much! I can't stand it! It seems that I have to buy some ointment to apply on it."
"The hand that was touched this morning is only starting to hurt now?" Chen Qingxuan sneered.
