Chapter 557: It Turned Out to Be You Who Did It (3)
Although the third prince Zhao Hongli said that he would live up to his wife Du Shuyin, he turned his head and came out of Du Shuyin's room and went straight to Paula's courtyard.
In his heart, nothing is more important than his identity and status.
Now he is no longer the third prince who was high-spirited some time ago, but a prince who is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
Although everything has to wait for the emperor to decide, the third prince Zhao Hongli decided that he could not sit still and must do everything possible to save himself.
On the one hand, he asked his people to inquire about who set himself up and made Zhuge Cheng's matter break out; On the other hand, he asked Du Shuyin to write a letter back to Du's house, and asked Paula to write a letter to the old man who was far away in Siam.
If the alliance between the two countries can really be promoted, it will also be a great achievement, and the emperor will not abolish himself as a prince in the face of the King of Siam.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongli wanted to move Paula.
Although the third prince Zhao Hongli always knew that he got Paula's person, he never got Paula's heart. A woman's heart has always been in the true king, which is also his heart disease all along. However, now, in order to save himself, he had to put down his body and ask her for help.
The awkwardness of the third prince Zhao Hongli, Du Shuyin could see it at a glance. So, Du Shuyin took the initiative to provide a method. Zhao Hongli came to Paula with great interest.
At that time, Du Shuyin told him so.
"Your Highness, if it's not easy to speak. It's better to use the lord of Xing'er as a guise. Just said, let Xing'er enter the palace and serve his father. Come to think of it, Sister Paula won't refuse."
"Xing'er? She's just a child, what can she do? Don't be willful, and make your father even more unhappy" Although the third prince Zhao Hongli said so, his eyes that kept rolling had already revealed his true heart.
Du Shuyin, who sees everything in his eyes, and the duplicitous third prince, despises it in his heart. However, she didn't show it, but persuaded with a gentle face, "Your Highness, this is just a way to retreat." Anyway, the county lord is also the biological daughter of Paula's sister. For the sake of the county lord, she will also come forward to help His Highness get through the difficulties."
Du Shuyin's words spoke to Zhao Hongli's heart. So, he couldn't even wait for Du Shuyin to stay there for a while, so he hurried to find Princess Paula.
Du Shuyin looked at the third prince who had just returned you and me, and said a lot of sweet words to himself, and turned his face to find another woman. There was not the slightest surprise or disappointment, maybe it was numb after too much disappointment.
"Imperial Princess, why did you let the third prince go to that woman?" Fluttershy, who was beside Du Shuyin, asked with a puzzled expression.
Fluttershy is the longest-standing girl by Du Shuyin's side, and Du Shuyin never doubts her loyalty, so she is willing to say something to Fluttershy.
In this wealthy compound, no one speaks and chats, how can you survive loneliness and sadness?
"Zhuge Cheng's matter, although the three princes have been implicated, the three princes will not really have anything to do." Du Shuyin looked at the disappearing figure outside the window, turned around and walked into the house.
Fluttershy huddles her arms around her master and asks in a whisper, "But the third prince has been frowning these days, as if things are not ordinary."
"Hmph, he is a fan of the authorities, so he was too careful" No one else was present, Du Shuyin also took off his disguise, and without the warmth of the three princes just now, his face was indifferent.
Fluttershy is used to her master's face-changing skills, and she is not too surprised.
Although Zhuge Cheng's background is not ordinary, he has been living in the Qiandi Dynasty with his father over the years, and has not had too much contact with the Wanyan family. The third prince just used Zhuge Cheng, and he never touched the core of power. The emperor is a Ming monarch, and he will not easily believe that the three princes will really collaborate with the enemy and betray the country."
"Although Zhuge Cheng's case is a crisis, it is also a good opportunity. I have always thought in the past that His Highness relied too heavily on Zhuge Cheng and was too careful in doing things. Now that Zhuge Cheng has been exposed, His Highness will no longer have to be influenced by him in the future," Du Shuyin said with a cold face.
"In addition, these days, I have also carefully observed His Highness's attitude, and I am sure that he did not know Zhuge Cheng's life experience at all in the past. I can see what I can see, and I believe the emperor will be able to see it too. As long as the three princes did not do anything to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, I believe that the emperor will not abolish the chess pieces of the three princes."
"Whether it is in the court or in the harem, the three princes can help the emperor. The third prince can be regarded as scraping bones to heal his wounds this time, and he will not hurt the fundamentals. That's why I agreed to Your Highness and asked the Du family for help. Otherwise, even if I open my mouth, the people in the Du family will not help" Du Shuyin's words made Fluttershy understand something. However, Fluttershy still doesn't understand why the master wants the third prince to go to the side princess for help.
If the emperor didn't have the idea of putting the three princes to death, why didn't he take the opportunity to let the three princes understand that the master was the woman who was sincerely willing to share weal and woe with him?
"But, master, why are you?" Before Fluttershy could finish her sentence, Du Shuyin interrupted her questioning.
"You want to ask me, why do you see that the third prince is not in danger this time, and still want him to go to that woman?" Du Shuyin sneered at the corner of his mouth and did not continue.
"Well, the minion is stupid and confused," Fluttershy nods.
"Although the third prince has a request for others, he still can't let go of his figure. And she claims to be the princess of Siam, but she has always been high. Both of them are so proud, they both want to make each other bow their heads. You say, will we have another good show to watch? Du Shuyin said with a sneer, his eyes radiating light.
Fluttershy looks at her master, who she thought was the most indifferent woman in the world. However, when she enters the Three Princes' mansion and watches how her master uses her means to keep the power of the mistress firmly in her hands, Fluttershy already understands that everything is an illusion. It's just this disguise, but I don't know, how long did it last?
Du Shuyin doesn't see the scared look in Fluttershy's eyes, she squints and looks in other directions, in fact, she still hasn't said anything to Fluttershy.
Over the years, the Du family has been silently supporting Du Shuyin, although the Du family is gradually declining, but there are still connections. Therefore, some news still continued to reach Du Shuyin's ears.
What happened in the True King's Mansion and the entanglement between Princess Paula and the True King are all clear to her. She also knew that Paula had always had a pair of siblings around her to help her, and the man named Ada had been very active outside the house, but now, he hadn't appeared for a while.
Du Shuyin always felt that those things in the True King's Mansion had something to do with that Ada and Paula. That's why she deliberately proposed in front of the third prince and asked him to go to Paula for help.
