Su Yuanyi is cold by nature, and his face is always cold and indifferent without expression, so it can be said that he has always suppressed his emotions very well.

Such a hidden person, if he suddenly reveals something in front of others, there are only two possibilities, one is that the other party has his trust, and the other is that he did it on purpose.

In this situation, Su Wanqing naturally has to fall into the second category.

So, Su Yuanyi provoked Shen Qingyi's hostility towards her, and at the same time showed favor to her, deliberately revealing her dissatisfaction with the Shen family, didn't she want to make her have to oppose the Shen family first, and then help the Su family suppress the Shen family?!

Will it?

Su Wanqing thought about it, and a flash of inspiration suddenly cleared her mind.

Yes, Shen Xiang acted like this, showing his arrogance, and even forgetting his duty of respect with his subordinates, even if it is regarded as disrespecting the royal family, it is never wronged, Su Yuanyi is the dignified king of Yi, and he has the posture of a noble family, so it is impossible not to mind this at all!

Realizing this possibility, her heart beat rapidly under her calm face, and her slender fingers gradually twisted the handkerchief in her hand together.

Su Wanqing was a little excited in her heart, although she also understood that the arrogance of the Shen family would not make Su Yuanyi move, but such a situation would undoubtedly be of great benefit to the Su family!

Thinking like this, Su Wanqing felt that the big stone pressing on her heart was much lighter, so she couldn't sit still, and immediately hesitated, what should she do next.

It's just that under Su Yuanyi's nose, it is not a good place to meditate and plan, Su Wanqing pondered for a moment, raised her head and looked at him, "The prince has important things to do at night, so the concubine will retreat first." ”

Su Yuanyi glanced at her, nodded slightly, and then glanced at the book of "Baicao Book" in front of her, and said lightly: "This book is left, and when there are no guests in the study room in the future, you can come to read it." ”

Su Wanqing was slightly stunned when she heard this, Su Yuanyi's words came out, didn't she say that she had the right to enter and leave the study?

This was still a bit unexpected by Su Wanqing, and slowly, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you for the grace of the prince, the concubine will retire." ”

As soon as her voice fell, she got up and saluted, and quietly withdrew.

At the end of the day, Su Wanqing did not take half a step out of the door of the courtyard on the west side, always sat in front of the table, put a book of soldiers in her hand, and did not move for a long time, as if she was extremely fascinated.

Only when she got close could she notice that her gaze on the book was a little distracted, and the pages had not been turned for a long time. Hongfu and Biwu saw that their master was serious, and they always waited carefully, not daring to disturb them.

It wasn't until the evening that the two laid out dinner for Su Wanqing, and the atmosphere returned to normal.

Bi Wu lowered her voice while distributing vegetables: "Concubine Fang, when the slave maid went to the dining room to get snacks at night, I heard Chun'er talk about a big event. ”

Hongfu saw that her expression was a little unusual, and she was curious: "What's wrong?" ”

Su Wanqing roughly guessed what Bi Wu was going to say, scooped a spoonful of fish soup, and waited for her to continue.

Bi Wu looked at her master, then looked at Hongfu on the side, and subconsciously shrunk her neck, "Do you remember a maid named Linlang that my master asked me to ask?" She's been in an accident lately......" she said, gesturing at her neck.

How could anyone present not understand this meaning, Hongfu was startled, hurriedly glanced at Su Wanqing, and interrupted Biwu's words: "The master is eating, what are you talking about." ”

"Phew, bah, bah." Bi Wu was speechless in a trance, and she snorted three times in a row, and stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

Su Wanqing glanced at Biwu, there was no displeased reaction on her face, she looked like she didn't care about herself, but she was a lot more relieved in her heart.

Linlang's identity and the news of her death were written by Su Wanqing after returning from King An's Mansion and ordering Su Zhao to spread in the capital. After all, Linlang's death is a sharp sword, and whoever moves first between her and Shen Qingyi will take the lead, and the latter can only fall into passivity, and it is difficult to speak.

Today in King An's Mansion, Shen Qingyi colluded with Mrs. Pei, wanting to hide Linlang's identity and label her as a tiger. Fortunately, Ling Wanrong appeared in time and let her escape by luck, but that didn't mean that Shen Qingyi wouldn't make a fuss about Linlang's death on her again.

Therefore, Su Wanqing took advantage of Shen Qingyi's anger and had no time to do anything else, and as soon as she returned to the house, she ordered to go down, and implicated the identity of the only deceased person in that disaster with Shen Qingyi, so that she did not dare to act rashly and cut off her thoughts on this matter.

It's just that there are gains and losses, and the disadvantage of this move is that Shen Qingyi will inevitably suspect Su Wanqing and hate her even more.

At this hour, somewhere in the inner courtyard, Chun'er was standing outside the house of Mama Fu, the head of the dining room, knocking on the wooden door a few times, with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

Mama Fu opened the door and looked at the woman in front of her with some doubts, "I'm not on duty in the firewood room at this time, why did I come here?" ”

Chun'er bit her lip, raised her eyes and said, "The slave is scared, and I want to ask my grandmother if I have something." ”

Seeing this, Mama Fu opened half of her body, made way for her, and nodded, "Come in." ”

Chun'er entered and stood still, Tongren moved twice in her eye sockets, and when she saw that Mama Fu had closed the door, she bit her lip and said, "Mama, you have heard about Miss Linlang's accident, it just so happened that Miss Biwu came to me to inquire about her before...... Do you think this has anything to do with the west side yard? ”

Mama Fu was a little surprised, looked at her and squinted, paused for a moment, and said slowly: "Why do you think so?" Did Miss Biwu tell you something? ”

Chun'er shook her head, her face was very bad, and there was even a little crying in her tone, "Miss Biwu just asked the slave princess what maids were around her before, and when she heard that Miss Linlang was not in the house, she asked two more words and didn't say anything." And the slave maid just told her about Miss Linlang's accident, and she didn't seem to know. The slave and maid believed in the girl Biwu, but the slave and maid were afraid in her heart for some reason, afraid that if the slave and maid said something wrong and caused Miss Linlang to suffer this catastrophe, the princess would definitely not spare the slave and maid. ”

"There is such a thing..."Mama Fu muttered to herself, looking at Chun'er's eyes with a little pity, "Why are you so afraid of the princess, although she ordered you for the tea ceremony last time, it was also your position, she didn't remember which one you were." If you are really uneasy, just avoid her in the future, even if you can't avoid offending her, at most you will only suffer some hardships on the flesh and skin, and I still have some face in front of her, and I will definitely keep you safe. ”

Chun'er glanced at Mama Fu timidly, and nodded with tears in her eyes.

Mama Fu thought for a while, and exhaled heavily, "Okay, this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to think about it, Miss Biwu has inquired about Linlang, and you must not let others know about it, especially the master in the east courtyard, so as not to make another disturbance, and the west courtyard is there...... You can help if you can secretly, understand? ”

Chun'er bit her lip and replied: "The slave knows everything about Miss Biwu, and Mama Fu can rest assured." ”
