Chapter 135 Inside Story
Chapter 135 Inside Story
Fu Sheng walked a long way out of Mo Yun Pavilion before he heaving a long sigh of relief. She was indeed an old nanny from the palace, and most people couldn't stand her.
So how did he offend that old lady?
That night, Yan Qingning put her hands behind her head, thinking about what to use instead of the few medicinal ingredients that were not available.
After pondering for a long time, her eyes lit up, "My Lord, are you free these days?"
After a while, Chu Beiqing's deep voice came, "What's the matter?"
"There are a few medicines. Fu Sheng said that our pharmacy doesn't have them. I want the prince to take me to the Imperial Hospital to see if they have them."
Chu Beiqing thought for a moment and said, "Wait for me to arrange..."
"Um……"
The two of them fell silent again.
Just as Yan Qingning was about to close her eyes and go to sleep, Chu Beiqing's voice suddenly rang out again, "As expected, Chu Xuan was taken advantage of."
"Hmm?" Yan Qingning asked in confusion.
Then he remembered that he went to the palace today, probably because he heard the truth about Chu Xuan harming Chu Jia.
Yan Qingning suddenly became interested, sat up and asked eagerly: "What's going on? Who is using Chu Xuan? Why does she want to harm Jiaer?"
Chu Beiqing listened to Yan Qingning's questions and smiled. She was really interested. His voice slowly rang out, "Prince Duan has a bad habit of beating his wife and children after drinking..."
This was also why he thought of her and was curious about her before leaving the palace today, so he asked Eunuch Chen.
Of course, Chen Dajian would not hide anything from him, so he told him everything.
He had wanted to tell her during dinner.
Unexpectedly, Fu Sheng appeared, which made him feel a little embarrassed to speak.
As Chu Beiqing told her story, Yan Qingning finally understood the truth behind Chu Xuan's murder of Chu Jia.
What is unexpected is that the Prince Duan, who looks serious and solemn, is actually a domestic violence man.
On the day of the palace banquet, after Chu Beiqing and others left the palace, the Emperor of Chu quickly found out the truth, and there was a dead body in the water.
After questioning, Chu Xuan also told the emperor's grandfather the whole story.
Chu Xuan harbored resentment towards her father because she and her mother had been abused by her father for a long time.
Someone told her that if her father got into trouble, he would no longer be bothered to beat or scold her or her mother.
The so-called trouble was that she deliberately pushed Princess Jia into the lotus pond.
The man also told her that he just wanted to scare Princess Jia and would not put Princess Jia's life in real danger.
When she is found out, she will admit that she was the one who pushed Chu Jia, and the royal grandfather will punish her father.
And she must be fine, because she is the emperor's granddaughter,
But Chu Xuan didn't expect that it would lead to other troubles, and Chu Jia was almost drowned, so how could she dare to admit it.
When the Emperor's grandfather personally questioned her, she told him everything that had happened.
What shocked the emperor was that Prince Duan beat and scolded his wife and daughter after drinking because he was dissatisfied with him as their father.
The emperor was so angry that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
With so many children, it would be hard for him, as a father, to act like a loving father to them.
Just relying on them would cause a huge uproar!
In fact, the Emperor of Chu did not do anything to Prince Duan, he was just a little strict with him.
After all, he is the eldest son and the elder brother of other princes. How could the emperor not have high hopes for him?
But on the surface, Prince Duan seemed to be cautious in his words and actions, respectful and modest, but he was trembling with fear in front of his father.
But secretly she was so dissatisfied with him and took out her dissatisfaction on his wife and daughter. The Emperor of Chu was furious and disappointed.
There is only one thing in my mind: it is difficult to achieve great things!
As a result, the emperor directly exiled Prince Duan back to his fiefdom and ordered him not to return to Beijing during his lifetime without being summoned.
The wife and daughter of Prince Duan voluntarily chose to follow Prince Duan back to his fiefdom or stay in the capital.
No matter how much Prince Duan cried or how much he repented, the Emperor of Chu did not even see him this time.
What was even more unbelievable to him was that none of his wife and children were willing to follow him to his fiefdom.
Prince Duan was filled with hatred, but he could do nothing and left the capital alone and quietly.
Yan Qingning sat on the couch for a long time in silence, and also realized the power of the emperor.
After a moment, Chu Beiqing said, "As for who used Chu Xuan... I'm afraid only my father knows. Only a few restless servants died..."
……
The next morning, when Yan Qingning got up, it was already past breakfast time.
Chu Beiqing is not here. He has gone to court.
She was having breakfast after washing up.
I heard that Cheng Wanshuang came and was standing at the gate, wanting to see her.
"No!" Yan Qingning said without even raising her head.
Yuqi felt that after all, they lived in the same mansion, and they would see each other every day. It would be bad to make things too awkward, so she said, "Master, please meet her. At worst, we can just not have a close relationship with her in the future. After all, she is in charge of the family now. If in the future..."
"In the future? Haha..." Yan Qingning smiled indifferently.
Since she had no plans to stay in the mansion in the future, it didn't matter to her.
Cheng Wanshuang had no chance to control her.
Nanny Zuo said to Yuqi, "Don't worry about it. Our concubine doesn't need to suffer any grievances from anyone now."
She thought to herself that Concubine Ning had no intention of competing with anyone at all, so there was no need for her to compromise.
After hearing how indulgent Nanny Zuo was, Yuqi secretly sighed and could only hurried out to send Cheng Wanshuang away.
But not long after, Yuqi came back again, "Concubine Cheng said that she would only talk to the master for a few words and leave, and would not delay you for too long..."
Yan Qingning had just finished eating, so she put down her chopsticks, slowly wiped the corners of her mouth, rinsed her mouth, and then said, "Well, let's just digest the food."
When Cheng Wanshuang saw Yan Qingning, she immediately moved in front of her like a young wife, and said with a guilty conscience, "Sister Ning, I..."
Yan Qingning leaned lazily against the door and crossed her arms, "Is there anything wrong, Concubine Cheng? I'm very busy."
In fact, she didn't take Cheng Wanshuang's madness too seriously. Cheng Wanshuang was a little selfish, but she was not that bad.
And he didn't do any harm to himself.
But who can blame me for being narrow-minded? How could I possibly be nice to her?
Chen Wanshuang has never been a shy person, she immediately stood in front of her and grabbed Yan Qingning's hand, "Sister Ning, I was wrong yesterday.
I admit that you advised me with good intentions, but I was powerless and unable to control my own heart, so...
Alas, I am just drunk and daring. I will never do this again. Sister Ning, please forgive me for speaking without restraint this time..."
Yan Qingning looked at her for a moment. All she wanted was Cheng Wanshuang's attitude, since she said so.
Then she naturally couldn't let it go because of a few words, "Really... forget it..."
Since the other party is willing to get deeply involved, Yan Qingning is not a meddlesome person, so there is naturally no need to say more.
Cheng Wanshuang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that she had finally calmed down. She shook her hand with a lingering fear on her face, "My dear sister, I was upset when I woke up this morning. This wine is really worthless..."
"Sixth Aunt, are you waiting for Jiaer?"
Before Cheng Wanshuang finished her words, she heard a clear child's voice.
Yan Qingning looked over and saw Princess Jia walking towards her from afar with a lovely smile on her face.
Cheng Wanshuang said tactfully: "Since Sister Ning has forgiven me, I can go back without any worries. I will add some dishes to Sister Ning's lunch later..."
Yan Qingning smiled and agreed. At the same time, she thought about it secretly and whispered a few words to Yuqi quickly.
After hearing this, Yuqi was very sure, "Master, do you really want to do this?"
Yan Qingning smiled in an extremely sinister and unscrupulous way, and waved her hand, "Go quickly."
