Chapter 168 1 stone 2 birds
Yan Xiwei's breathing was rapid, and her mind was working quickly. Why did Chu Beiqing bring Yan Qingning into the palace?
The point is, why did Prince Qing bring Yan Qingning into the palace?
"It's ridiculous. If he wanted to enter the palace, he should have brought me, his principal wife, with him. But he brought a concubine with him. Is he slapping me in the face?
Why, why do all of them treat me like this? What did I do wrong? "
Seeing that she was about to go crazy, Madam Guo swallowed back the words of persuasion that were about to come out of her mouth.
According to experience, if you talk too much at this time, you will be the one in trouble.
Therefore, Madam Guo just stood aside with her head lowered, not saying a word, just waiting for Yan Xiwei to finish going crazy.
However, miraculously, Yan Xiwei calmed down after taking a few deep breaths. However, her eyes were like those of a poisonous snake. "It's worth my preparation for so long. It takes a thousand days to train an army, but only a moment to deploy it. It's time for them to play their role..."
Madam Guo responded and retreated respectfully.
Yan Xiwei's eyes were filled with vicious light. "It doesn't matter. I will make all of you regret it and realize how blind you were and what kind of person you chose..."
She walked towards the window step by step. The window opened a crack, and Yan Xiwei looked at the distant sky through the crack. The corners of her mouth raised a cruel arc, and she said maliciously: "Yan Qingning, you let me flatten and round you in your previous life. Even if you use all your tricks in this life, you are still not my opponent. You will never be able to turn over. I will make you more miserable and live a more painful life than in your previous life!"
Not long after, a servant girl from Qixia Garden who was originally going to the kitchen changed her route halfway.
At this time, breakfast had already been over and Concubine Cheng Wanshuang was dealing with trivial matters in the inner courtyard.
She was listening absentmindedly to the conversations of several housekeepers standing in front of her, her mind having drifted away to who knows where else.
At this time, her confidante, Mother Cheng, walked up to her from outside and whispered something in her ear.
After hearing what Cheng's mother said, Cheng Wanshuang opened her eyes slightly.
Then, her heroic brows slightly frowned, and after thinking for a moment, she sent the person away. There were no outsiders in the hall, and she paced back and forth on the floor.
Mother Cheng saw that her master was obviously hesitating, and she was anxious, so she immediately said: "Concubine, this is an opportunity for us, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Once this matter is confirmed, if we can find evidence against the princess in time, based on what she has done recently, it will be enough to make the prince dislike her. At the same time, Concubine Ning will also lose the prince's heart..."
Cheng Wanshuang paused for a moment when she heard this, and a bitter smile appeared on her face. "Mom, I've been thinking a lot these past two days..."
Mother Cheng immediately sensed something was wrong, and thinking back to the fact that her master had been in low spirits for a while, she asked, "Master, are you disappointed with the prince?"
Cheng Wanshuang shook her head, her eyes blank, "I just feel a little tired. During this period of time, I have been thinking, is my wishful thinking for so many years just my selfishness or my obsession?
No matter how much I have done and how much I have paid, I have only found that I have only moved myself..."
"And the prince never... never gave me a chance, not even a word of coaxing. He was too stingy to give me that.
If he treats Yan Qingning the same way, even though I know the hope is slim, I still have motivation..."
However, Yan Qingning broke the established status quo and was kept by the prince as a special existence.
She felt that even if she waited till the end of time, she would not get any response from the prince.
She had no strength left.
Mother Cheng felt very distressed when she saw the young master so pessimistic, hopeless and listless. She couldn't help but comfort him, "As the saying goes, flowers don't last forever. Master, there's no need to be too pessimistic. You're probably the only one in the world who's still loyal. Men's love is even thinner. Maybe after a while, the prince will get tired of Concubine Ning..."
After a pause, his eyes lit up, "This time, if you can pull the princess down, you will be the most likely to become the princess..."
In the past, after hearing such words, Cheng Wanshuang might have been moved and planned carefully.
But at this moment, her self-confidence and ardent hope had been weakened to almost nothing. Her heart, which was about to become stagnant, could no longer stir up the slightest ripple after hearing such exciting news.
What's the point of her guarding the position of princess alone?
If the prince's heart was with her, she wouldn't mind being a tea-serving maid, but that man didn't even give her the chance to get close to him.
Seeing this, Mother Cheng asked hesitantly, "Are we going to let this rare opportunity slip away?"
……
Meanwhile, the Royal Palace.
Concubine Hui personally welcomed Yan Qingning into the palace and enthusiastically asked the palace servants to serve her tea, snacks and fruits.
She looked at Yan Qingning with a kind gaze, her eyes moistened, "Qingning, I don't know how to thank you. Without you, Bei Qing's life would be ruined...
You don’t know, when I saw Bei Qing standing in front of me yesterday, I thought I was dreaming…”
Seeing Concubine Hui’s excitement that was difficult to calm down after a whole night, Yan Qingning was also very excited. She just hoped that Concubine Hui would remember to fulfill her promise as soon as possible.
She has been waiting for a long time.
Yan Qingning felt that it was a wise choice to take out double insurance.
She smiled and patiently exchanged a few words with Concubine Hui.
Yan Qingning is not in the mood to show her emotional intelligence right now.
I couldn't help but change the subject and asked, "Why didn't I see Aunt Zuo?"
Nanny Zuo did not return to the palace yesterday, and she was not seen today either. Yan Qingning was naturally concerned.
"Madame Zuo... go out of the palace to do something." Concubine Hui said with a meaningful smile.
The two talked to each other for a long time, not even forgetting the cat.
Yan Qingning felt a little guilty and a little guilty towards that girl.
Ever since she brought Tuan'er back home, she has been busy treating Chu Beiqing's leg, so she has neglected Tuan'er for a long time.
But she would be stupid to tell the truth to Concubine Hui. Yan Qingning only said that the girl was clingy and cute.
Finally, just when Yan Qingning was laughing so hard that her smile became stiff, Concubine Hui and Aunt Buqin nodded.
Aunt Buqin pursed her lips, smiled and went to the bedroom.
Yan Qingning saw it all, and she could hardly control herself as she clenched her hands and waited. Fortunately, Concubine Hui kept her word.
She had already seen the vast world of freedom beckoning to her.
She decided to follow Xia Yu for a walk first.
"Are you so happy?" Concubine Hui couldn't help but ask.
She couldn't see through her anymore.
Yan Qingning came back to her senses, and immediately sat up straight. She smiled shyly at Concubine Hui, feeling a little embarrassed, and nodded honestly, "Hmm..."
Concubine Hui hesitated for a moment, coughed lightly, and said tentatively: "I heard that, um, you and Bei Qing consummated your marriage..."
