Chapter 151 Sending Young Madam
Xie Rongying followed Chang Ning into a shop not far from the carriage and looked around.
This is a medicine shop. On the left side are layers of medicinal materials spread out with winnowing baskets, and on the right side are layers of cabinets full of drawers.
"Young Madam, please." Chang Ning made a gesture of invitation.
Xie Rongying looked in the direction Chang Ning had "invited" her to. It was behind the lobby of the shop where they should be sitting for consultations.
At this time, the sound of dogs barking and carriage wheels rolling came from outside. Xie Rongying looked towards the closed door.
Chang Ning immediately explained: "Don't worry, Madam. When you return, your carriage will appear safely."
This means that if you park your car outside on the street, it will arouse suspicion.
"Please." Chang Ning said again.
Xie Rongying followed Chang Ning through the lobby, walked out, turned right and walked along the corridor.
Arriving at the door, Chang Ning knocked on it and said, "Master, the young lady of the Yongyi Marquis's residence has arrived."
"Come in."
After saying that, Chang Ning pushed the door open and said, "Young Madam, please come in."
As soon as Xie Rongying walked into the room, Dongxue came to greet her.
"girl."
Xie Rongying's eyes flickered across Dongxue's face before she looked at the man sitting behind the table. He had a handsome figure with sharp eyebrows, and at this moment he smiled faintly at her: "Young Madam, please sit down."
Xie Rongying looked at him warily and asked bluntly, "I wonder why Your Highness invited me here in this way?"
Except for Xie Ting, who had a close relationship with King Wei, no one else in the Xie family had any dealings with King Wei.
Even though Xie Jing had been in the Ministry of War for so many years, he was clearly distinct from the King of Wei.
"It is indeed a bit presumptuous of me to invite Young Madam here in this way." As he spoke, the King of Wei covered his mouth and coughed twice, then raised his eyes and said: "It is just that I want to discuss something with Young Madam. I hope Young Madam will forgive me."
"No one has hurt you in the slightest." He seemed to be explaining.
After hearing this, Xie Rongying looked at the man in front of her seriously. The orange candlelight shone on Zhao Yu's body as if it was coated with a layer of light. His seemingly gentle eyes were also gloomy and cold.
With clear facial features and handsome outline, he can be said to be a man with a particularly distinctive appearance in Bianjing.
It's no wonder that Zhang Ruru would rather break with the Duke of Ying's Mansion and enter the Prince of Wei's Mansion.
Xie Rongying said in a flat voice, "I wonder what the prince and I can discuss."
She really couldn't imagine what the King of Wei could discuss with her, but she could vaguely sense what it was.
After all, there was only Dongxue in front of him, but no sign of Shangguan Yao.
Perhaps the King of Wei saw through her thoughts, but she heard him order: "Bring the people up."
Xie Rongying frowned slightly, and just when she was confused, she saw Shangguan Yao walking towards her from another door.
At this time, Gu Xun, who was standing behind Xie Rongying, frowned and kept his eyes fixed on Shangguan Yao after seeing Shangguan Yao wash up.
Shangguan Yao bowed to Prince Wei first, then turned sideways to greet Xie Rongying, saying, "Greetings, sister."
Xie Rongying looked at Shangguan Yao in confusion, then looked at King Wei and asked, "Your Highness, what are you doing...?"
Dongxue and Cuizhi both had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Shangguan Yao's face was clearly injured. Even if she could cover it up with rouge and powder, there would be no trace of the injury on her body.
Before they could react, Chang Ning dragged someone in and fell at Xie Rongying's feet.
Gu Xun immediately stood in front of Xie Rongying. When he saw clearly that the person lying on the ground was Shangguan Yao, he looked at the man in the main seat with a little more fear.
At this time, Xie Rongying also discovered Shangguan Yao lying unconscious on the ground. She looked at Shangguan Yao standing in front of her again.
Dongxue and Cuizhi were shocked by the two Shangguan Yaos in front of them.
The night wind was blowing hard outside the window, and a dark light flickered in Xie Rongying's eyes.
It seems that the one on the ground is the real Shangguan Yao.
"Young Madam should know that the Shangguan family in Longxi is the same Shangguan family that was implicated by Emperor Rende in the fourth year of Chengde." Zhao Yu chuckled as he said this. "I was able to discover this matter entirely because Young Madam asked Second Master Xie to track down the Shangguan family in Longxi."
Xie Rongying's eyes were solemn as she stared at Zhao Yu without blinking.
"I was able to follow the clues to discover this secret and trap Shangguan Yan's eldest son in my hands, all thanks to the young lady." Zhao Yu spoke in a gentle tone, and his gaze lingered on Gu Xun for a moment.
"So what does this mean?" Xie Rongying's gaze lingered on Shangguan Yao standing there. "Your Highness wouldn't want to bring this fake Shangguan Yao to Qin Junyi's side, would you?"
If this were the case, the King of Wei's men could directly enter the Shangguan family in Longxi.
Although Shangguan Jing is now detained by King Wei, he has nothing to fear according to Emperor Ren De's attitude.
After all, in the eyes of the people of Dayin, the former General Shangguan Yan had died long ago, and he died with a bad reputation.
No one would believe that Shangguan Yan, the traitor, is still alive.
I will never believe that all this is controlled by Emperor Ren De.
I think Emperor Ren De had anticipated this, which is why he was so indifferent to Shangguan Yan falling into the hands of King Wei.
The King of Wei was well aware of this, so he wanted to take action against Shangguan Yao.
"A few days ago, Madam Young's father informed Emperor Ren De that the Xie family would be using a caravan to transport medicinal herbs and food to the border," Zhao Yu said, gesturing towards Xie Rongying, "Please take a seat."
Xie Rongying's eyes darkened slightly, and this time she sat down in the armchair opposite King Wei.
"And Emperor Ren De sent the Crown Prince to the Marquis of Yong Yi's residence."
Hearing this, Xie Rongying thought of the time when she was arguing with Qin Junyi in Linfeng Garden and the prince suddenly came to visit. Later, she asked Dongxue to go and investigate but found nothing.
Zhao Yu picked up the white porcelain kettle and poured a glass of water into it. He then placed the cup in front of Xie Rongying and said, "Emperor Rende wants Young Marquis Qin to use his status as Xie's son-in-law to accompany the Xie family's caravan to the border, and take Shangguan Yao with him to Longxi."
Xie Rongying raised her eyebrows, thinking about Qin Junyi's intentional or unintentional courtesy towards her during this period of time. So this is what was going on.
"And Emperor Ren De's goal is to have Young Marquis Qin personally deliver his secret letter to Shangguan Yan." Prince Wei raised his eyebrows slightly, met Xie Rongying's gaze, and smiled faintly, "This prince wants that secret letter."
So there was this fake Shangguan Yao.
Xie Rongying was shocked by the methods and actions of King Wei. He was able to see everything that happened between Emperor Ren De and the Crown Prince. It seemed that he had quite a few spies and informants.
Thinking about what happened to Shangguan Yao today, it seemed that King Wei had guessed that she would not show mercy to Shangguan Yao.
It is indeed time to put an end to Shangguan Yao.
Xie Rongying smiled faintly: "Your Highness, the purpose of asking me to come here is not to ask me to persuade my father to let Qin Junyi go to the border with the Xie family caravan, right?"
Zhao Yu instinctively frowned slightly. Xie Rongying was smarter than he thought.
He smiled warmly, "My people will obey the orders of the young lady when they enter the Marquis of Yongyi's mansion."
What this means is that if you, Xie Rongying, successfully let Qin Junyi take Shangguan Yao back to Longxi, the secret letter from Emperor Ren De will naturally fall into the hands of King Wei, and this fake Shangguan Yao who has entered the Yongyi Marquis Mansion will help you, Xie Rongying, to control the entire Yongyi Marquis Mansion.
"Your Highness, aren't you afraid that I will tell Qin Junyi everything you said?" Xie Rongying asked with a smile, "After all, Qin Junyi and I are husband and wife."
"If the young lady really regarded Qin Junyi as her husband, the deficit of the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion would have been made up by her long ago, and Jiang Shi would not have died in Wanmiao Village." Zhao Yu explained to Xie Rongying very tactfully that Xie Rongying did not regard Qin Junyi as her husband.
Xie Rongying just smiled faintly and stood up: "I will take my leave now."
Zhao Yu knew that Xie Rongying had reached a consensus with him. He smiled and stood up: "It's really Madam Shangguan Yao who will take it away."
Xie Rongying couldn't help but look at Shangguan Yao who was standing aside.
"Don't worry, Madam. Nothing will go wrong with me." Perhaps seeing Xie Rongying's doubts, the fake Shangguan Yao spoke.
Xie Rongying felt strange in her heart. Could it be that someone who looked exactly like Shangguan Yao would not make any mistakes?
"Chang Ning, see the young lady off." Zhao Yu ordered.
