Chapter 383: Familiar with the Trend
Because of the imperial doctor's instructions, Wei Yan could only recuperate in the mansion during this time, and did not go out to socialize, so she happened to miss the banquet prepared by the emperor for Gu Chengyuan.
I heard that at the banquet, the emperor praised Gu Chengyuan fiercely, and raised his title from the county king to the prince, and also let him take over the criminal department.
King An's Mansion, which was once unattended, has become a place where people can be crowded in just a few days, and Gu Chengyuan has also become a fragrant dumpling in the court, but in just a few days, he can protest with Gu Chengyu.
Of course, the emperor's impetus is indispensable, under his intentional or unintentional suppression, Gu Chengyu's power has slowly converged a little, and he is no longer as impetuous as before.
But these days are too peaceful, Luo Huatong didn't come to Wei Yanran, not to mention, even Hai Jingtan didn't appear, what the hell are they doing?
After recuperating intermittently for more than half a month, Qin Yenan hurriedly came to Wei Yanran with the news from Luoyang on this day.
"The people of the Wei family really made a big deal this time, they killed the son of the prefect of Luoyang, but it was rumored over there that you interfered in this matter, so the officials of Luoyang did not dare to attack the people of the Wei family."
An anger suddenly crossed between his eyebrows, and Qin Yenan's fingers hidden in his sleeve shook it forbearingly, he knew that Luo Huatong was uneasy and kind, and he would actually involve Wei Yanran thousands of miles away.
Wei Yanran didn't know about it from beginning to end, but the gossip there spread very strongly, portraying Wei Yanran as a person who bent the law for personal gain.
"This matter is too big, presumably it will spread to Beijing in the near future, and you will definitely be implicated at that time." Qin Yenan didn't care how Luo Huatong and the people of the Wei family behaved, as long as they didn't involve Wei Yanran, he could turn a blind eye and let it go, but this time it was impossible.
"There are small people, everything starts from small things, Luo Huatong just wants to destroy my reputation, which will make people spread rumors thousands of miles away."
At that time, the gossip has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is useless to let Wei Yanran explain it, not to mention that the central person of this incident is Wei Yanran's relatives, and people who don't know the truth will definitely guess that Wei Yanran has done something to protect them.
"Now it's too late for you and me to rush to Luoyang, the prefect over there can't suppress this matter, not to mention that rumors are spreading, it's not that it can be solved by solving it."
Luo Huatong is really acting more and more carefully, when she told Wei Yanran, she must have taken the lead in sending someone to release the rumors, so when Qin Yenan went to investigate again, she couldn't control it.
"Since they want to move the battlefield to the capital, then we will wait for him to come." Wei Yanran narrowed her eyes dangerously, then thought for a moment, and pursed her lower lip slightly, "I want to see Zhan Qingqing." ”
Didn't the former seek her cooperation? So can Wei Yanran get some words out of her mouth? Presumably, in order to gain her trust, Zhan Qingqing will definitely say something half-truthfully.
"No, I'm not going to let you go to her alone." After the woman's voice fell, Qin Yenan categorically refused without even thinking about it.
He didn't know what Luo Huatong and Zhan Qingqing were talking about, but the whole thing was aimed at Wei Yanran, so Qin Yenan never believed that they would let Wei Yanran go easily.
What's more, Wei Yanran can only go to Youwang's Mansion if he wants to see Zhan Qingqing, and if something happens at that time, it will be completely out of Qin Yenan's control.
"I am above board and generous, go to the Yongwang Mansion generously, will Zhan Qingqing still do anything to me?" Wei Yanran glanced at Qin Yenan with a smile.
Did Zhan Qingqing think that Wei Yanran would definitely sneak around when she went to find her? No, she just wants to do the opposite and make everyone know.
It is not yet known who is the person in the game in this anti-intrigue scheme, so how can we easily draw conclusions.
Qin Yenan had a slight hesitation on his face, he knew what Wei Yanran meant, as long as she entered the Yongwang Mansion openly, Zhan Qingqing would not attack her easily, otherwise the latter's crime would be confirmed, but even so, Qin Yenan was still a little worried.
The latter's women's methods have always been to kill people without seeing blood, and if Zhan Qingqing comes up with any damage, he can't afford to lose Wei Yanran.
"It's the only thing I can think of right now, you let me try, I'll definitely protect myself." With a hint of pleading in her eyes, Wei Yanran grabbed Qin Yenan's arm and shook it coquettishly.
The man stared at her for a long time, and after a while, he nodded with an embarrassed expression, "I will let Lu Xue follow you secretly, and if there is any emergency, you will summon Lu Xue out." ”
Wei Yanran was overjoyed, and then hurriedly instructed Qingzhi to change clothes for herself, and prepared some gifts from the warehouse, and after getting into the carriage, she swaggered to King Yong's mansion.
Since King Yong's prostitution incident, he has become more and more low-key in the court, and he only has a false position on his body, and he has no real power, compared to the recent star Gu Chengyuan, he seems a little down.
However, there is such a princess as Zhan Qingqing, and the people in the Ministry of Rites dare not snub this lord too much, Wei Yanran quietly glanced at the rockery and fake water in the mansion, and the taste of Zhan Qingqing in his heart probably had an outline.
Could it be that this princess was abused in the Liufeng Kingdom? It was golden as far as the eye could see, as if you had walked into a golden house, and it was really extravagant and luxurious.
Just when Wei Yanran was silently complaining about Zhan Qingqing in her heart, the main lord had already come to her with the palace maid with a smile on her face, "The princess is finally here, and this palace has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Did she know she was coming?
Raising her eyebrows quietly, Wei Yanran smiled reservedly, and then followed her to the main hall, "The princess seems to have guessed that I will definitely come today?" ”
caressing the corners of his skirt, Zhan Qingqing said as if unintentionally: "The person sent by Qin Shizi to investigate in Luoyang only returned to the capital last night, so I guess that the princess will definitely come to the door today, which is not my guess." ”
The finger holding the tea cup moved slightly, and Wei Yanran's eyes flashed with surprise, how many people did Zhan Shuo leave to Zhan Qingqing when he left, and why did she know Qin Yenan's movements.
"Don't you be surprised? The prince's brother must not be at ease with leaving me alone in the capital, so he left a lot of talented people for me, and the reason why I know these is just a coincidence. ”
