Chapter 319 Yunpin's Methods
Just then, the prince and Ye Jiangchen walked into the hall. Su Qianqian and Qin Yuzhuo quickly stood up and saluted. The prince, sitting on the sedan chair, nodded in return.
The Queen asked the Prince to come to her side, but she looked up and said to Ye Jiangchen, "Jiangchen, Miss Qin San doesn't come to the palace often. You have become familiar with the paths in the palace recently, so take Miss Qin San for a tour."
Qin Yuzhuo was slightly stunned, but did not say much. He thanked the queen and followed the humble and polite Ye Jiangchen out.
[What does the Queen mean?] Is there any intention to bring them together? Ye Jiangchen's concubines have to come quickly, otherwise the whole family won't be together and how can they hold the wedding! 】
Su Qianqian was pondering in her heart, but her eyes were moving between the Crown Prince and Concubine Yun.
The Queen and the Crown Prince looked at each other and suppressed their shock. The Queen lowered her head to look at Concubine Yun, deciding to resolve this hidden danger first.
"Since the prince is here, please tell me, Concubine Yun suddenly felt dizzy and fell down, why didn't you ask the imperial physician to treat Concubine Yun?"
"Mother, Concubine Yun fell beside my...chariot. We should have asked the imperial physician to treat her, but Concubine Yun woke up and refused to allow me to ask the imperial physician. She left in a hurry. I asked the imperial physician to go to Concubine Yun's palace to treat her, but I heard that he refused."
The prince responded to the queen in a gentle voice, but hesitated when he mentioned the place where he fell.
[What do you mean by falling beside the sedan chair? That was clearly her throwing herself into the prince's arms. It was the prince's close eunuch who knew his character and was afraid of hurting him, so he hurriedly tried to stop her, which made Concubine Yun throw herself onto the armrest of the sedan chair!
However, people who can dance have good body flexibility, so she couldn't be hurt by this blow. She had already twisted her body to avoid it and fell to the ground, with her movements being very smooth. 】
Su Qianqian was finally able to see the description of the melon-eating scene, and she was eating the melon with great joy. The prince's ears were already red, and he glanced at Su Qianqian secretly. The queen's expression did not change, but her gaze towards Concubine Yun became even colder.
"I see. How could Concubine Yun take her own body so lightly? You are His Majesty's new concubine, and a princess sent by Daliang to marry. If I don't take good care of you, I'm afraid I'll be criticized by the Daliang envoys. Come on..."
The queen waved her hand and several palace maids immediately came forward.
"Help Concubine Yun return to her bedroom. She is not allowed to leave the palace without my permission. She must rest well in the palace. Please don't worry about anything else.
I will also send a message to His Majesty, saying that Concubine Yun fell at the feet of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is now unable to walk and did not inform His Majesty in time. I will apologize on behalf of the Crown Prince and for the sake of Concubine Yun's health, she will stay in the palace for a month to recuperate. ”
[Pfft, you make house arrest sound so affectionate and loving, you are worthy of being the Queen! But why is the queen in the original plot... so weak? Is it because of poor health? 】
Su Qianqian felt puzzled.
[That's right. Why did your merit power increase so quickly? It's because you saved the Queen and the Crown Prince. In the original plot, Meng Yun messed up the harem, and the Emperor was not in good health. After the Crown Prince got into trouble... the Queen also...]
The system became quieter and stopped talking.
At this time, Meng Yun was being carried out by the head palace maid, but she didn't care. She still had a smile on her face and turned back to look at the prince with a meaningful look in her eyes.
The queen's eyes suddenly shook, she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and looked at the prince. The prince shook his head gently, signaling her not to show it.
The Queen calmed herself down and talked about the academy again. The Prince was also quite interested in this and asked about the rumor in Xijing City that there would be a snowstorm in late winter and that the Marquis' Mansion was repairing houses for the people.
"That... is just a rumor, it may not be true. I am just making some preparations for the servants in the mansion and the families of the soldiers, just to be prepared. Even if there is no snowstorm, it is not a bad thing."
Su Qianqian has found someone to speak for her in this matter. She doesn't want to attract attention. Now the work of repairing the house and storing heating materials is in progress. It would be best if the prince is willing to participate.
"The wife of Marquis Wuning is very wise. Since she has such insightful views, the prince should pay more attention to it. The sudden heavy snowfall in the hunting grounds may not be a sign."
The queen reminded the prince, and the prince nodded to indicate that he understood and would definitely make arrangements for the matter.
Princess Zhaoyang sat aside feeling bored. Knowing that she had gotten through her ordeal, she thought about leaving. But when she heard her mother and the crown prince mention the heavy snow in the hunting grounds, she remembered how Su Qianqian had played her around and how she had been scolded and confined by her father. Evil thoughts began to arise in her heart again.
"Madam Wuning Marquis, I heard yesterday that the cousin of the mansion can come and go in your inner courtyard at will. Now that the Marquis of Wuning is out on business, the cousin is a foreign man but can walk freely in the mistress' inner courtyard. The Marquis's mansion really has good rules."
Su Qianqian blinked: [You know nothing! My cousin not only has to enter the inner courtyard, but also the inner room. We sleep on the same bed, eat the same bowl of rice, use the same clean bucket and wear the same clothes. What's it to you? 】
"Princess Zhaoyang is joking... Actually, he is not free. My cousin usually rides in a warm sedan chair. He has no say on how fast the maids walk. As for whether the rules are good or not, I have no say. They were set by the ancestors of the Qin family. I'm afraid the princess won't have the chance to discuss and modify them."
Su Qianqian explained in a soft voice, which made Princess Zhaoyang so angry that she was speechless.
The Queen and the Crown Prince had expressions that were indescribable. If this lady had not been bound by the rules, she would have been the best hero in the Marquis Wuning's Mansion!
Princess Zhaoyang was about to slam the table and stand up, but the Queen and the Crown Prince gave her a glare at the same time, and she immediately lost her temper. At this time, Qin Yuzhuo and Ye Jiangchen also came back.
Ye Jiangchen still looked indifferent, but Qin Yuzhuo could not hide the disappointment on her face. Su Qianqian stood up and took her leave, and the aunt and sister-in-law left the palace.
In the carriage, Qin Yuzhuo was thinking about something and said nothing. Su Qianqian did not disturb her, thinking about how to find out the person who met He Liansheng.
[Why was the Third Miss unhappy on this date? She deliberately reminded Ye Jiangchen along the way, asking him if he had a woman he liked after traveling to so many places, and said that this was also human nature.
Unfortunately, Ye Jiangchen never admitted it until the end, but kept claiming that for a man to marry, one wife is enough, and they should stay together forever with mutual respect and love, that is the fairy couple he wants. 】
The system was eating melons quietly. Su Qianqian leaned against the car wall, opened her eyes a little, looked at Qin Yuzhuo's distraught look, and closed them again.
[The Third Miss has been drugged and has lost her soul. Anyone who hears such words will be attracted to her, let alone a girl who has not experienced the world. Let's wait for her confidantes to rush to Xijing and recognize her as a relative before seeing what she thinks. 】
Su Qianqian made a judgment in her heart that Qin Yuzhuo had been bewitched by Ye Jiangchen. After returning to the mansion, Qin Yuzhuo hurried back to his own courtyard and was ridiculed by Su Qianqian.
He went to Fushou Hall to report to Madam Qin what happened in the Queen's Palace today, but he omitted what Tan and the Emperor said. He only mentioned the guest who visited He Liansheng and was worried about how to find him.
Su Qianqian didn't expect that two days later, the mystery was solved inadvertently.
