Chapter 364
“Miss Cheng, isn’t that obvious? I advise you, it’s best not to speak now!” Qingyue sighed, still kindly reminding her.
Although Cheng Qingli was somewhat annoyed, she had to admit that Li Zhiwei's intuition might be right this time; the land deed was probably really problematic.
Could the person who attacked her be from the Prince Lanhuai's mansion?
Or was it that concubine?
Soon, the sounds of fighting came from outside the carriage.
"Stay in the carriage, don't come out!" Qingyue instructed before slipping out of the carriage.
She never expected that the man would dare to make a move at the palace gate.
You should know that the palace gate was not far from them.
The man was clearly driven to desperation, which is why he quickly ordered his men to commit the crime.
Sure enough, the guards on the city wall not far away saw this and quickly led their men over.
"Hurry up and protect the Empress! The person in the carriage is Her Majesty the Empress's own sister!" Qingyue ordered the person who came.
Upon hearing that this was Miss Cheng, the guards quickly joined the team protecting the carriage.
The secret guards of Prince Lanhuai's mansion were no match for the palace guards, and they were defeated in no time.
Qingyue drove the carriage forward directly.
Only a few guards remained to deal with the two men in black.
"Who goes there?" Although the guards at the palace gate saw the commotion, the approaching carriage stopped them.
"I was in such a hurry today that I forgot my waist token. I hope you can be lenient with me, sir," Cheng Qingli said, peeking out of the carriage somewhat apologetically.
"Miss Cheng? Please come in." The guard recognized her as Cheng Qingli and quickly let her in.
After all, Miss Cheng was a frequent visitor to the palace.
They naturally dared not stop them.
When Qingyue saw this, she didn't expect that Cheng Qingli had such a big influence that she could move around the palace with impunity.
However, her immediate priority was to get the person to see the Emperor as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew who those men in black were? If it got too late, they might steal the items, and that would be a huge loss.
When Cheng Qingli appeared in the Imperial Study, Zhu Jingchen was taken aback for a moment.
Although my sister-in-law often goes to the palace to see the Empress, this is the first time she has come to see me.
"Qingli is here!" Zhu Jingchen said with a smile, wondering to himself if the little girl had run into some trouble.
"Brother-in-law Emperor." Cheng Qingli was still somewhat afraid of the Emperor.
After all, when she was with the Empress, she could act recklessly as she pleased, and her sister would always forgive her.
However, the emperor might not be so sure.
She was terrified that if she accidentally said the wrong thing, she would lose her head.
"Qingli, have you encountered some trouble? It's alright, just tell me, and I'll take care of it for you." Looking at Cheng Qingli's expression, Zhu Jingchen suddenly thought of how the Empress was so angry with his younger sister that she jumped up and down.
He was still curious; could it be that this girl had gotten herself into some serious trouble this time?
"Brother-in-law Emperor, here you go. Quickly send someone to investigate. Sister Li said there might be something wrong with this estate." Cheng Qingli took out the estate's land deed from her bosom and handed it to Zhu Jingchen.
