Chapter 168: Exposed
Busy days always pass quickly, and Chinese New Year's Eve is coming as scheduled! The palace is filled with joy, and the doors of each palace are hung with red silk. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Cuifang Pavilion is certainly no exception. It's just that the more days like this, the more Mama Feng restrains the people of Cuifang Pavilion, don't have an accident at this time. Su Wan was worried all the time, and she didn't dare to be careless at all.
"These two days are very important days, and I don't want anything to happen to you at this juncture... Otherwise, no one can save you" Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, something big happens, and Mother Feng has never believed in luck. So, prepare well in the morning.
"Yes" Many of the palace slaves have just arrived this year, and they are also skeptical of such words.
"Su Wan, Alain, Xin Ruo, the three of you take turns on duty, you must do whatever you want to deal with properly" During this time, Su Wan's ability to deal with things was also in Mama Feng's eyes.
"Yes," the three replied in unison. During this period of getting along, the three of them have a more tacit understanding.
The atmosphere of Cuifang Pavilion was much more tense for a while.
When the crowd dispersed, Alain began to arrange their tasks. Su Wan stayed on the sidelines, thinking.
The phrase 'On the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve, the action begins' suddenly appeared in Su Wan's mind, and it was also because of the deep memory that it was so clear. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and if it was last night, then today will not be peaceful.
"Sixth brother, is your news wrong? Why didn't he move at all?" The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, King Zhao and King Rui had been silently paying attention to King Yu's movements, but they waited for a day and a night, but there was no movement at all.
"No," he will definitely do something, but now is not the time.
After waiting for so long and checking for so long, how could it be wrong? Zhou Hongjin never believed that his news was wrong, because no one else knew about this matter at all.
"Let's go, we have to go to the morning court today, it is estimated that he will not do it for a while" For this Yuwang, he is bold and arrogant, and King Zhao is also deeply affected. However, because of the huge power of his mother, the saint has always turned a blind eye.
"All the people, stay here, don't act rashly" The discordant king will not seize this opportunity and do something. It's also good to leave some people behind and keep an eye on them.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the morning dynasty was particularly relaxed. In general, it is to sort out the various major events that happened last year, or to list some plans for the implementation of policies in the coming year. Whenever there was such a thing, the princes did not dare to interject and say a word.
When he arrived in the next dynasty, King Zhao still went to the harem as usual, and the virtuous concubine Niangniang.
"Mother Concubine" At this time, Concubine Xian Niangniang was playing chess with Caiyun, and when she saw King Zhao coming in, Caiyun hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Wang'er, why is this time coming?" "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the rules, King Zhao should not come.
"I came to my mother's place to ask one thing" If King Yu talks about his assassination, then his life-saving benefactor must be found as soon as possible.
"You guys go down first" Seeing King Zhao's face so solemn, Concubine Xian also knew that this Chinese New Year's Eve would definitely not be calm. It's just that in this harem, how can there be a time of peace?
When everyone went out, King Zhao casually found a stool to sit down.
"Wang'er, what's the matter?" It had not been a long time since she had seen King Zhao so serious, and Concubine Xian began to worry in her heart. Could it really be that something big is going to happen today?
"Mother, is there any news about my life-saving benefactor?" It's been so long since this matter, and it is estimated that it will be quite difficult to investigate.
At this time, King Zhao also regretted in his heart, if he had gone to see Wei Yaru in the morning, maybe he had found someone by now. How could it be possible to fall back into such a passive situation as it is now? If someone does something with this, what should it do?
"This matter, for a long time, there are few clues, I can only suspect a few people now, but I am not sure who it is" In this palace, the power of Concubine Xian should not be underestimated. But it took a long time to find a clue about this matter.
"Who is it?" is much better than having a general suspicion than looking around without your own mind.
"This person is in Cuifang Pavilion, and the estimate I found is one of the few people, Xin Ruo, Alan, and Ah Cai" It is really because Su Wan and Wei Yaru have always been incompatible, so Concubine Xian has never thought about this.
"I know, mother, my son will retire first" This matter is very important, if it weren't for the lack of time, King Zhao would not have prepared to go over to check it out in person.
It's just that all the people living in Cuifang Pavilion are women, and how to exclude the situation of these people, King Zhao didn't have any good ideas for a while.
But before he could think of an idea, he came across a familiar figure here.
"Sixth brother, why are you here?" This person is none other than Zhou Hongjin, the sixth son of the emperor who had just separated from him before the early dynasty.
I'm here to investigate the girl's business. Why did King Rui come here? Could it be for the girl who quarreled with him last time? Unexpectedly, King Rui, who has always been clean and self-loving, would have this day.
"Fifth brother, why are you here?" the two of them said in unison, and they also had their own guesses about the purpose of the other party's coming here.
"In the palace of the concubine, my life-saving benefactor is fake, I am here to investigate this matter" This matter will be told to him sooner or later, and King Zhao will not have anything to hide.
"Is there such a thing? This person is so bold?" This kind of thing, there are even people impostor, it's really bold.
"Don't talk about me, why are you here for?" Thinking of this, King Zhao had a headache. Or find another topic and diverge.
"I'm coming to see someone...", as soon as he spoke, Zhou Hongjin felt that what he said was a little inappropriate. Hurriedly glanced at King Zhao next to him, and saw him staring at a pair of big eyes, looking at himself deadly.
"Fifth brother, don't...", this kind of look, Zhou Hongjin looked a little hairy. He hurriedly explained, "I have nothing to do with her... , not what you think".
"What kind of thing is that?" has already admitted that he came here to find someone, why do you want to refute it? But this is also a good thing, how can there be a prince, there has never been a person around who knows cold and hot. It's okay to find someone who looks pleasing to the eye and keep it around.
"Forget it, I won't tell you" Looking at the smile on King Zhao's face, Zhou Hongjin knew that he couldn't explain it clearly. Simply, let him misunderstand.
It is estimated that she didn't look at the yellow calendar when she went out today, Su Wan was about to go out to find Huang Anning to ask about the situation, but she didn't expect that as soon as she walked out of Cuifang Pavilion, she was blocked by Zhou Hongjin who was guarding here.
"What are you doing?" Before thinking of it, Zhou Hongjin entered his room as if he had entered a no-man's land. Su Wan didn't have a good face for him, how could she still stop me in broad daylight?
"Don't do anything, I just want to ask you about some things, come with me" Zhou Hongjin has always been more cautious in doing things, knowing that King Zhao was around, he pulled Su Wan towards the plum forest on the side.
King Zhao smiled when he saw Zhou Hongjin's actions. It seems that good things are coming, and if you have time, you have to let Xiaoliu have a treat, and said.
"What are you doing, where are you going to take me?" I don't have much time at all, and I have to rush to Concubine Jing's place as soon as possible to see how Huang Anning is doing. Su Wan didn't have time to spend Zhou An here, so her anxious look also floated on her face.
"Why are you in such a hurry? You don't want to see me so much?" When he was in the Su family, Zhou Hongjin was particularly impressed by Su Wan. If it weren't for this, Zhou Hongjin wouldn't have thought of Su Wan so quickly after meeting some time ago.
"Say something quickly" nonsense, of course I really don't want to see you, every time I meet you, there is nothing good. It's just that this sentence was said in Su Wan's heart.
"Is there a mistake in the news you told me?" If it weren't for the evening, Zhou Hongjin wouldn't have doubted Su Wan's words at all.
"That's what I heard, and I didn't hide it at all" Su Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Zhou Hongjin was here for what she had overheard before.
"Let's go" Could it be that King Yu has discovered something?
Su Wan's bottom line, he knows it very well. An orphan without a father or mother, and no one grabbed her handle and deliberately blackmailed her.
"There will be no time in the future" was delayed for such a while, and Su Wan felt very unlucky. After saying this, he walked out by himself.
It's just that before she could walk a few more steps, someone stopped her again. Su Wan also recognized this person. Some time ago, what made the palace uproar was the assassination of King Zhao.
"Slave and maid see Lord Zhao" The rules cannot be abolished, knowing his identity, Su Wan can only take the initiative to come over and salute.
"Get up" In this palace, every palace maid who serves will salute him like this, and King Zhao has long been used to it.
But looking at her, coming out of the plum grove just now, could it be the person the sixth brother was looking for? Thinking of this, King Zhao glanced at Su Wan more.
"Where have we met before?" Looking at the woman in front of him, King Zhao felt very familiar. It's just that for a moment, I can't remember where I've seen it.
"The prince and noble are forgetful, the slave and maid have seen the prince before" But isn't it, that night, if you didn't hug my legs, how could I remember your appearance?
"But this king remembers that the people of Cuifang Pavilion, except for Wei Yaru, no one else has ever seen them" The people of Cuifang Pavilion have never appeared on big occasions, this woman can know who she is just by looking at it?
"Yes..."Oh no, how did I forget this. I have never seen King Zhao on other occasions, I hope he doesn't think too much.
"What is it?" Glancing at Su Wan again, King Zhao felt more and more familiar.
"It's in the painting, yes, it's the slave maid who saw your portrait when she was sorting out the items at Concubine Xian's place..."
"Oh, that's right... Let's go" is so, I guess I have also seen it in the palace of the concubine, so I let him go very generously.
"Lord Xie" Hearing this, Su Wan seemed to have received a pardon. After a salute, he left in a hurry.
