Chapter 266: Eve

Hui Zhi shouted in her heart that she was deceived!

No wonder she didn't say anything just now, she just begged herself to save her, and she was just waiting to dig a pit for her to jump?!

The Empress Dowager is old, and now she is living in the palace, and the juniors ask to see each other to report good news but not bad news, this Yuan Shuren also takes herself too seriously!

Hui Zhi was angry that Yuan Shuren was not able to do anything, and felt that Yuan Shuren's head was really strange.

The Empress Dowager and her old people love her very much, but whenever Yuan Shuren uses her name to make a raft, the people in the Empress Dowager's palace may lead her to see the Empress Dowager. At that time, who knows if this Yuan Shuren will be bold enough to say anything? What's more, Yuan Shuren is the prince's person and the queen's mother's family, if she is entangled with her at this time, who knows what will wait for her?

Was this the prince's idea or the Yuan's idea?

She is the concubine of the Cheng'an Hou Mansion, and the current wife of the Wuwei Hou Mansion, the future head of the house, at this time Yuan Shuren came to her, so arrogantly wanted to talk to the Empress Dowager through her, is this Yuan family has a problem with her brain! How did she come up with this?

As soon as the thought passed through her mind, the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and the color on her face was covered with a thin layer of anger: "What does Yuan Shuren mean by this? Do you want me to take you to the Cixiao Palace with a swagger when the queen is mourning?" Or do you want me to give you a token, so that you can pinch the Wuwei Marquis Mansion and the Cheng'an Marquis Mansion into your hands as weights?"

Yuan Shuren was stunned by what she said in one breath, she didn't expect Hui Zhi to think so much, she was just a little girl who had just reached Lu, how long had she been married, how could she have so much knowledge, Yuan Shuren listened to what she said, the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became, her face turned pale all of a sudden, and she said in her mouth: "The concubine is not... The concubine is just, I ...... Where did I think so much...... I can't save my life, I just want to save the Yuan family......"

"Just to save the Yuan family?" Hui Zhi said with a gentle smile in her voice, what she said was really ridiculous, how did this Yuan Shuren grow up?

"Regardless of whether what Yuan Shuren just said is true or not, the Yuan family is the queen's mother's maiden family, the foreign family of His Royal Highness the Prince, the relationship between flesh and blood, broken bones and tendons, no one can separate - the so-called principle of both glory and loss, the Yuan family first produced Queen Yuan, and then sent you to the East Palace, you should know clearly, the Yuan family has already stood on the prince's ship. Now that the queen has passed away, the bones are not cold, the filial piety period has not passed, Yuan Shuren is the niece of the mother, and the person next to His Royal Highness the Prince, at this time, she ran over to pick up the Yuan family, is the lady's brain in the water?"

After saying these words, Hui Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at Yuan Shuren's trembling appearance, and sighed in her heart, thinking that it was this Yuan Shuren's own blind idea, which should have nothing to do with the Yuan family, after all, the Yuan family is far away in the south of the Yangtze River. But as for Yuan Shuren coming to find her, whether it is related to the prince, Hui Zhi is still a little unclear in her heart.

"It's not too early, presumably there are some other places that the lady needs to take care of, and the courtiers won't bother the lady. Seeing that there were people squirming in the curtain next to her, Hui Zhi stopped talking and retreated politely, but she didn't expect Yuan Shuren to ignore it, and reached out and grabbed her sleeve: "Dare to ask how Mrs. Shizi knows every move in the East Palace? Could it be that the Marquis of Wuwei Mansion secretly snooped on?"

Hui Zhi was stunned for a moment, and asked with a sneer: "Could it be that the lady is curious about how the courtiers recognized the lady?"

Yuan Shuren's face was stubborn: "No matter how Mrs. Shizi recognizes the concubine, this one thing to spy on the palace is enough to pull the Marquis of Wuwei in!"

Hui Zhi raised her eyebrows: "Lady, is this threatening me?"

Yuan Shuren reached out and grabbed Hui Zhi's sleeve hard, with a noncommittal expression.

"I'm afraid Yuan Shuren didn't take a good look in the mirror when she went out, which of the officials outside the palace didn't keep an eye on the adult princes, and what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did, did he really think that no one knew?" Hui Zhi raised her sleeves, covering the corners of her mouth that couldn't help laughing, and only lowered her sleeves after a while: "Spy on the palace, if you want to threaten me, even if Yuan Shuren doesn't first worry about worrying about the lives of those who have to be used in his own palace, he should also worry about his own life, whether he can live- How long will you live, Yuan Shuren doesn't count what she said. ”

Yuan Shuren's face changed greatly, and the corners of her mouth twitched, as if she wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.

Hui Zhi felt bored.

Fortunately, the queen's funeral ceremony was presided over by Concubine Shu, and after a while, a female official saw that something was wrong and came over to lead her into the mourning hall.

The female officials and palace maids were busy, as if few people had seen Yuan Shuren from beginning to end.

When the mourning was over, Hui Zhi returned home and saw Pei Gu, so she couldn't wait to tell him about meeting Yuan Shuren.

"The queen mother's death is strange, the prince must be also investigating, but it is useless for him to check, and now he is so unruly, not only in broad daylight, but there is no official performance in the filial piety period, could it be that the emperor is pressing?"

Pei Gu frowned when he heard this, "The soldiers stationed outside the capital are very unruly, and many families in the capital already know about this, and they all say that the prince is crazy, and the emperor is really cold." It's a pity that you have to go to the palace again...... I'll take care of it, let people protect you in the palace, and save all the mess and scare you. ”

The two hurriedly said a few words, Pei Gu quietly went out to meet Qin Yuan, and repeated what Yuan Shuren told Hui Zhi to Qin Yuan, Qin Yuan frowned when he heard it, "This is not a trivial matter, I don't know if the emperor knows it?" Wu Weihou is still in charge of the defense of the capital now, but we don't know much about the news outside, I will send someone out to contact Xiao Zheng now, my father happened to be in the study at this time, and I have to let the old man enter the palace to talk to the emperor about this matterβ€”β€” The queen is gone, the emperor is afraid that he will strike for a few days, and the prince may have the idea of fighting. ”

Pei Gu nodded, thought about the manpower on the prince's side, and continued: "Although the Jian family is a little estranged from the prince, after all, they are still people along the way, and when I go back, I will ask people to keep an eye on the Jian family." ”

Qin Yuan bowed his head, and the two went to the study together to find Qin Weien.
