"Yes, my uncle said that the emperor was furious yesterday and immediately confined Princess Rongfu to the palace. Except for Qinglian, her personal maid, all her maids were sent back to the princess's residence and were not allowed to contact her."
"Those maids were her right-hand men. I don't know how many evil things they have done for her."
Pei Mingyue said angrily, "That's right! Princess Rongfu is so vicious, and now we can finally control her. This is really satisfying!"
"By the way, my uncle said that the emperor sent people to Nanli Kingdom yesterday to invite Master Wuen back."
Su Li was a little surprised. She had not expected the emperor to act so quickly. She smiled and said, "Then we just have to wait for Master Wu En to come back and verify Princess Rongfu's guilt. I think she will be doomed..."
In the palace.
Inside Changle Palace, Princess Rongfu paced back and forth anxiously: "Qinglian, why hasn't the Imperial Concubine arrived yet?"
Qinglian was also a little anxious. Not only was the princess under house arrest, but she herself couldn't even take a single step out of Changle Palace. "I've already asked someone to invite the Imperial Concubine over, but Princess, the Emperor is so angry that he's confined you here. If the Imperial Concubine wants to come see you, she'll have to ask the Emperor's permission..."
Qinglian is still a little confused. How could the emperor believe what a fake Taoist priest of unknown origin said? Not only did he believe it, he also confined the princess to house arrest and wanted to investigate the rumors. This was even though the emperor had clearly promised to cover up for the princess.
"The Imperial Concubine has arrived!"
Just then, the maid's voice was heard outside the door.
Afterwards, the well-maintained Concubine Xiao, dressed in a gorgeous dark yellow dress, walked in anxiously with the help of her maid.
Princess Rongfu rushed forward as if she had found a life-saving straw, "Your Highness!"
"Rong'er!"
Concubine Xiao held Princess Rongfu's hand with a worried look on her face, and then ordered, "Madam Wen, please stay. Everyone else, please leave."
"yes."
All the maids, including Qinglian, respectfully left the hall.
Princess Rongfu said anxiously, "My Lady, what should I do? Father, the Emperor has already sent someone to invite Master Wu'en back to the capital. What should I do?"
"Rong'er," Concubine Xiao said soothingly, "You are the lucky star of the Great Jin. This is a fact that will never and cannot be changed, not even by that old bald donkey Wu En!"
Princess Rongfu looked confused: "What do you mean?"
Concubine Xiao hinted, "Don't worry. The journey to Nanli Kingdom is long, and that old bald donkey is already very old. Who knows if he will survive to return to Dajin or even the capital? Who knows, he might even die of illness on the way..."
"Died of illness..." Princess Rongfu's eyes widened, and she suddenly understood. She said repeatedly, "Yes! Yes! You are right! Master Wuen is indeed old. No one can be sure whether he can return to Dajin..."
As long as Master Wu En cannot return to the capital, no one can conclude that she is not a lucky star. Even if there is, Your Majesty will have to weigh it carefully, just like the old Taoist priest this time. Didn’t Your Majesty not believe it completely and wait for Master Wu En to come back?
"Rong'er, I will take care of this matter. Don't worry, just be a good princess and be your lucky star."
After a pause, he asked again, "Tell me, what exactly is going on? Why did that old Taoist suddenly target you? Also, I heard that even the third daughter of the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion and the newly reunited wife of the Crown Prince of Ji's Mansion are involved?"
Princess Rongfu was filled with hatred: "It was them, those two bitches who bribed the old Taoist priests, who caused what happened yesterday! It was them!"
She only hated that she hadn't been able to kill those two damn bitches several times, and now they had forced her to this point!
"Why would they want to harm you for no reason? But what did you do?"
Concubine Xiao watched Princess Rongfu grow up, and she knew her personality best. As long as she asked, Rongfu would not hide anything from her, just like she had done in the past.
Sure enough, Lord Rongfu's face was full of jealousy, and he gritted his teeth as he told all the grudges between him, Pei Mingyue and Su Li.
Nanny Wen at the side couldn't help but frown after hearing this. The princess was really too bold and presumptuous. Those were the Duke of Ji's Mansion and the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion. She had offended two families in a row. Even if she was the queen, she would have to consider the weight of these two families... Alas!
Concubine Xiao couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Rong'er, for a man, you are really too willful this time..."
Princess Rongfu shook her head, not admitting her fault. "Your Highness, I like Pei Ji. From the first time I saw him, I swore that I would have him. But who could have imagined that Su Li, that bitch, would refuse to give in at all. Especially since Pei Ji has acknowledged her as his relative and is the future Duke of the State, with such a noble status, she will never let go. I have no choice but to get rid of her!"
Of course, whether she gives in or not, she has to die!
Concubine Xiao sighed, patted her hand helplessly, and said, "Now that it has happened, there is no point in saying more. Don't worry about what happens from now on. Leave it all to me. Also, don't think about dealing with them anymore. At least, now is not the time. Don't let anyone catch you and report you to your father. Understand?"
Princess Rongfu replied reluctantly: "I understand..."
It's not that she doesn't want to deal with them, but she has no control over herself now and can't deal with them even if she wants to.
Just wait, wait until Master Wu En dies, wait until no one can prove that she is not a lucky star, then she will come to deal with them!
After a short while, Concubine Xiao stood up to leave. "Your father is still furious. I begged him for a long time before I could come to see you. I have to go and persuade him to calm down so that I can free your feet soon. I won't stay any longer. Just stay here and don't cause any more trouble. Okay?"
"knew……"
With Concubine Xiao's words, Princess Rongfu finally calmed down. She lay down on the couch leisurely and called Qinglian in to serve her.
At night, the top scholar’s mansion.
Su Li is writing a letter to Pei Ji.
The letter gave a general account of Princess Rongfu's current situation in the capital. As for the process, she simply did not write it down to prevent the note from falling into the hands of others.
Then he asked him to find evidence of Princess Rongfu's crimes in Yifeng, and also told him that the emperor had sent someone to invite Master Wuen back to Beijing.
Finally, he talked about Pei Zhao's study tour.
After thinking about it, I added another sentence at the end: Be careful.
Then he folded the note and asked Xiaowu to give it to Zhichang.
Seeing that it was getting late, he asked someone to prepare some water for him to take a bath before he went to rest.
The next morning.
After breakfast, Su Li returned to the study to continue looking at the relationship book.
Around noon, Xiao Wu came in and reported, "Madam, Taoist Kongxu is here. He said he wants to talk to you about something."
Su Li was a little surprised and said, "Please ask him to go to the main hall. I will be there soon."
"yes."
