Chapter 406 Likes Flattery
"Didn't they say that there are no good aunts? Aren't you afraid..." Ye Qianning used her little hand as a knife to cut her neck, sticking out her tongue and rolling her eyes.
"...Why would they want to harm me? I'm not a threat to the Xiang family." Helian Chen understood very well.
Ye Qianning touched her chin with her small hand and remained silent for a while as if she was thinking.
"I visited your aunt just to help you see if they really have bad intentions." Seeing that she was silent, Helian Chen thought she was sad.
Ye Qianning raised his head, staring at him seriously with his bean-like eyes: "Can you read it?"
Helian Chen met her small eyes and blinked several times subconsciously: "I am quite good at judging people."
He sighed inwardly, the more he looked at her big head, the more it looked like a pig's head.
"Okay." Ye Qianning nodded: "Luo Wen, take him to see my aunt."
Luo Wen stepped forward: "Little Prince, please."
"I'll put this painting here first and come get it later." Helian Chen put the scroll down reluctantly.
"Take it with you. My aunt loves flattery, and the sweeter the words, the more she likes it."
Helian Chen was displeased when he heard this: "How could this prince be that kind of person?"
Having said that, he picked up the scroll that he had just placed on the table and held it carefully in his arms.
Watching him leave, Ye Qianning shook his head and chuckled. The child was quite arrogant.
He listened to what was happening in the hall and heard nothing but flattery. Mogro did not enter the hall but was taken back to the post station by Xiyan's shadow guard.
The Third Prince Sang Yan had no idea what had happened in the General's Mansion, and started chatting with the guests.
Ye Qianning has retracted her supernatural powers, so nothing should happen when the Third Prince arrives. She cannot use her supernatural powers too frequently, otherwise her small body will suffer.
"Luo Xuan, bring another plate of pastries." Ye Qianning sat at the table again. She really couldn't stop talking now.
There is a reason why I am fat. I always feel hungry.
Not long after Luo Xuan left, he came in with a plate of cakes.
There was never a shortage of pastries in the General's Mansion. Ye Qianning was a big eater, and everyone in the mansion knew it, so the concubines or the chef would usually make a lot of pastries early in the morning.
"Is there nothing happening in the palace?" she asked while eating.
"No news from Du Yi yet."
Ye Qianning was a little puzzled. He stared at Concubine Yuan's palace. After the palace was looted, the emperor went to Concubine Yuan's bedroom and the palace maids also went in to clean it.
It's not right that neither the palace maids nor the Emperor of Beili showed any sign of abnormality even though so many things were lost.
Concubine Yuan, the Sixth Princess and the Ninth Princess are still kneeling in a small dark room as punishment for three days. No one can enter without the permission of Emperor Beili. They don’t know what is happening in the palace for the time being.
"Miss, the person we arranged last time has passed the palace guard assessment and will be able to replace Du Yi in half a month." Luo Xuan said.
"Don't be in a hurry. Let Du Yi come back after Dong Yi leaves Kyoto City." Ye Qianning felt that Dong Yi was worried about something big. Although he seemed calm now, it might be very difficult for him to make a move.
"Yes, I will send a message to Du Yi in a moment."
"Yeah." Ye Qianning nodded.
Sang Zhi was weak and the royal family's secret guards were all arranged by the emperor. If the guards were to engage in secret activities without the emperor's permission, the consequences would be tantamount to treason.
If we train some people outside the palace and establish an organization for him, it will be easier for him to act when he grows up.
"I heard there's a black market for human trafficking sixty miles outside of Kyoto City. Do you know the details?"
Luo Xuan shook his head: "I have only heard of it, but I have never been there."
"You and Du Ying go check it out tomorrow."
"Young lady wants to buy someone from the black market?"
