Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Chapter 501 Secrets in the Palace

When Ning Qian and Yun Shang rushed to the Xiangzhu Palace in the rain, they didn't see Xia Huanyu's figure, Ning Qian frowned, raised her head and looked at the palace servants standing quietly beside her: "Where's Your Majesty? "

Upon hearing this, the palace servants responded quickly: "I would like to report to Concubine Xiang, Your Majesty has just been sitting in the palace for a while, when the lady official came to report that there is an urgent report from the border, so Your Majesty left in a hurry."

Urgent report at the border? Yun Chang's eyebrows moved slightly, could it be that Cang Jue Qingsu did it?

Ning Qian nodded, sighed softly, turned around and looked at Yunshang, "I don't want to attend the banquet in Weiyang Palace anymore, since His Majesty is gone, the rain outside is still heavy, Wangfei I am pregnant, and now it is so dark, let's rest in the palace tonight." Xu Shicai was really a little angry in Weiyang Palace just now, and Ning Qian also became a little irritable.

rest? Yun Chang shook her head lightly, "I am a princess, if I rest at your place tonight, I don't know what will be said about it tomorrow. It doesn't matter, I have a lot of hidden guards around me, and nothing will happen."

Ning Qian raised her eyes to look at Yun Chang, and after a moment of silence, she said: "If you leave the palace now, if the queen finds out, I'm afraid there's something wrong, why don't you sit down for a while, and I'll let the palace staff prepare some pastries before you leave the palace." I didn’t eat anything in Weiyang Palace.”

It was indeed raining heavily outside, dripping from the eaves and splashing, making the entrance of the main hall somewhat wet. Ning Qian frowned, and asked the palace guards to close the main hall door.

Yun Chang pondered for a while, then nodded, walked to a chair beside her and sat down, took out the hairpin she had just put in her sleeve and looked at it carefully, and was speechless for a while.

"What is the princess planning to do?" Ning Qian kept looking at Yun Shang's expression before asking.

How to do it? Yun Shang held the hairpin in her hand and rubbed it carefully, the smile on the corner of her mouth was a bit cold, "I'm ready, I'll do the trick. Since she took out the hairpin, the prince is still in a coma from poisoning, I'm a woman , suddenly knew that something might happen to the concubine mother, after pretending to be calm, she should be in a mess. I really want to see what kind of thoughts she has in mind."

After a pause, the hand that was rubbing the hairpin paused again, raised his eyes to look at Ning Qian and said, "During this period of time, the empress has gotten closer to those concubines?"

Ning Qian thought for a while before responding: "The Empress personally selected five candidates from among the beautiful women as female officers, but only Wang Wanzhi was retained by His Majesty. The remaining four people have often been selected recently. Go for a walk in Weiyang Palace. I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager might have done something about it, these four beautiful girls have been favored one after another recently, and have been conferred one after another, the highest ranking is Qin Xianglan, who was conferred the title of Liangyuan by His Majesty."

"Oh?" Yun Chang lightly tapped on the armrest of the chair, a look of coldness flashed in her eyes, "Except for Su Luo, you choose two smarter ones, contact them secretly, and try to make them defect."

These words sounded very simple, but the queen was the master of the harem after all, and the women in the harem seemed to have a much better future if they attached themselves to the queen than to a concubine, and they had just benefited from the queen. Therefore, it might not be that easy for Ning Qian to do it.

Ning Qian just nodded slightly, and didn't ask Yun Shang why she did this.

"Su Luo..." Yun Shang narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her eyes to Qin Yi and said, "You let Su Luo find a way to let the Queen know that Concubine Shen Shu is not very safe in the cold palace, and has united with the Seventh Prince. The reason for this is that she overheard someone in the palace talking about it, and she doesn't know if it's true or not, so just tell the empress as a joke."

Qin Yi responded softly.

Ning Qian raised her eyes and glanced at Qin Yi, then retracted her eyes lightly, and said with a slight smile: "By the way, the princess was looking for some old people in the palace a few days ago?"

Yun Shang remembered the rumors about Concubine Shen Shu and Mrs. Xian that she heard in the imperial garden that day, and nodded slightly, "But you found it?"

Ning Qian nodded, "Actually, I found them a long time ago, and bought them early in the morning, but I never thought of a suitable reason for them to meet the princess. The queen is suspicious, and I'm afraid it will be self-defeating if I'm too hasty. This time I It happened to be an opportunity to be diagnosed with pregnancy, so I begged them to His Majesty, saying that I was completely ignorant of the facts of childbearing. Come."

Ning Qian explained to Yun Shang, and at the same time ordered the palace servants to bring him in.

Before the people arrived, Ning Qian told Yun Shang about their backgrounds: "These are all old people in the palace, and in order to avoid other people in the palace, I specially chose the old lady who was serving before. Empress Dowager."

Yunshang nodded, and then heard the voice of the maid from outside: "Miss Xiangfei, the four nuns have brought them here."

Yun Chang pondered for a moment, then said, "See you one by one."

Ning Qian nodded, and ordered Qianxin to go out and bring someone here. The nanny who brought in was a little thin, but she looked shrewd and capable. Ning Qian smiled and said: "This is Nanny Li, who was in Liu Taifei before. servants in the palace."

Yun Chang nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "It's not malicious to invite the nanny here today, it's just that I just talked to the concubine Xiang, talking about an anecdote I heard a few days ago, it was more than ten years ago. Something happened, my princess was a little curious, so I asked my mother to ask if there was anything wrong."

When the mother heard that Yunshang called herself the princess, she understood Yunshang's identity a little bit, with a kind of courteous smile on her face, she said again and again: "The princess just said it, if the servant knows it, she will know everything."

Yun Shang smiled lightly, "My princess heard that the root cause of the seventh prince's illness is related to His Majesty?"

Both Ning Qian and the nanny were slightly taken aback. Ning Qian glanced at Yunshang, then turned to look at Nanny Liu. Nanny Liu was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Those who know about this Most of them are gone, and the slaves and servants don't know what they know, but they heard that it was the anniversary of Empress Hua's death, and His Majesty went crazy for some reason, personally killed Concubine Liu, and injured the Seventh Prince. It has fallen to the root of the disease."

Yun Chang nodded slightly, but it was almost the same as what Mrs. Guogong said.

Yun Chang smiled, and then said again: "Concubine Shen Shu and Mrs. Xian had a good relationship before?"

The nanny nodded quickly again, "Yes, when Mrs. Xian first entered the palace, Concubine Shen Shu had just been favored not long ago. Concubine Shen Shu was gentle with all concubines on the surface, but she was really gentle with Mrs. Xian. We got closer because Concubine Shen Shu saved the life of Mrs. Xian who had accidentally fallen into the water. Mrs. Xian was grateful for Concubine Shen Shu's life-saving grace, so she listened to Mrs. Xian in everything. Later, it seemed that it was because Concubine Shen Shu gave birth to the little prince. For some reason, the two became strangers."

Because he saved Mrs. Xian's life? Yun Chang smiled coldly, Concubine Shen Shu was very scheming when she was young.

The palace man sent the teacup over and put it in Yunshang's hand. Yunshang tapped the lid of the teacup lightly with his index finger. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Why is Liu Yinfeng so appreciated by His Majesty? And why hasn't His Majesty ever How about giving Liu Yinfeng an official position?"

The nanny was taken aback, and after a long silence, she said softly: "This matter, the servants don't know very well, but when Concubine Liu was favored at that time, she seemed to have a very close relationship with Mr. Liu, and often greeted him. Mr. Liu came to play in the palace. Although Mr. Liu is young, he is also extremely intelligent. His Majesty also likes it very much. I don't know why I don't give Mr. Liu an official position. However, my servant guesses that it may be because Mr. Liu Yinfeng once liked Liu It must be related to the concubine."

Yun Chang's hand moved violently, almost knocking over the teacup, "You mean, Liu Yinfeng likes Concubine Liu? How old was Liu Yinfeng at that time?"

Seeing Yun Shang's reaction, the nanny squeezed her dress awkwardly and said, "Mr. Liu should not be more than ten years old at that time, but Mr. Liu is seven or eight years old." Then I can go to the battlefield with the Duke of the country. The slaves also heard people's stories. At that time, it was spread everywhere that the little child prodigy Liu Gongzi liked the concubine Liu, and that some palace people heard him express his heart to the concubine Liu. Now, the servant girl is not very clear about the specific situation."

Yun Shang pondered for a long time before waving her hand to let Nanny Liu back down.

Ning Qian raised her head and looked at Yunshang, "Princess Wang feels that what Madam Liu said is true?"

"It should be true." Yunshang asked a total of three questions just now, more or less tentative, but the nanny's answer sounded a bit bizarre, but Yunshang knew that it should all be true .

It's just that she never expected that Liu Yinfeng and Concubine Liu would have such a relationship.

Yun Chang laughed, feeling that many things in the palace are getting more and more interesting.

Ning Qian looked at Yunshang, and then said softly: "Then, Madam Liu, should I stay?"

"Why do you stay? But if you ask casually, you will pour out everything in one brain. Such a person, I am afraid that if others threaten and lure you, they will confess everything you and I have done." Yun Shang said He took a sip of scented tea from the teacup, then put the teacup down again.

Ning Qian nodded: "Do you still want to ask the remaining three princesses?"

"Ask, of course you have to ask." Yunshang asked Qianxin to bring in another nun.

This nanny looks very rich, with a smile on her face, and a very kind look.

"This is Nanny Wang, who served the Empress Dowager before." Ning Qian said softly.

"Oh... Queen Mother?" Yun Shang thought of the hot and sharp Queen Mother, smiled, and then slowly opened her mouth after a long while: "Just now, this princess took the pulse for Xiangfei, and her slippery pulse is still a little weak , This is full term and still looks like this, although I have some medical skills, but I have no experience in this woman's pregnancy, does Wang Momo know what might be the reason?"\u003c
