Fu Yuanling was about to get up to say goodbye, when he heard Princess Jin'an speak: "Concubine Li De knows that the queen mother is dissatisfied with her, if there is nothing important, I am afraid that she will not come to see you." ”

The queen looked at her daughter and smiled, "Okay, I know that you speak for Xiaosi, you can go." ”

Princess Jin'an got up with a smile, Fu Yuanling said goodbye to the queen with her, and the two walked out to the palace gate and saw Concubine Li De waiting.

Concubine Li Defei saw that the two of them were slightly stiff, but she still smiled and said, "The princess and Princess Jin are also here, but it's not the right time for me to come." ”

Princess Jin'an said with a smile: "Concubine De Niangniang, go in, the queen mother is waiting for you." I have other things to do with my ninth brother and sister, so I'll go first. ”

Fu Yuanling also smiled at Concubine Li De, and left with Princess Jin'an.

Although she doesn't like Concubine Li De, she still has to be respectful for the sake of King Chu's face.

What's more, Fu Yuanling has a good relationship with Li Xiao'an, and Qiao Eryu also married into the Li family.

Speaking of which, I haven't seen Qiao Eryu for a long time, and Qiao Anyi himself hasn't seen it for a long time.

"The ninth brother and sister are thinking about Concubine Li De?"

Hearing Princess Jin'an's words, Fu Yuanling retracted his thoughts, turned his head to look at her, and sighed softly, "I just think that Concubine Li De actually doesn't need to do this at all, the queen mother is generous and benevolent, if she is the fourth brother in the future...... In fact, the queen mother will inevitably take a step higher to Concubine Li De. ”

"When people's hearts are always insufficient, Concubine Li Defei is also dissatisfied, after all, even if the fourth child sits in that position, Concubine Li Defei's status will not be higher than that of the queen mother. After all, the queen mother is the queen of her father, and she is the mother of the fourth child, even if Concubine Li Defei is her biological mother, she has to be a head shorter than the queen mother, and she is naturally unwilling in her heart. ”

Listening to Princess Jin'an's faint tone, Fu Yuanling didn't know what to say.

Some things are just there, even if the queen mother doesn't have any inevitable thoughts about these, but for the sake of Xiao Jiuqi, this title and status are also necessary.

Concubine Li De, as the biological mother of the King of Chu, wants her mother to be expensive with her son and sweep away the resentment in the harem for many years, but she doesn't want to think about this matter, which is really embarrassing.

Who is it that is in trouble?

Naturally, it is the king of Chu.

Neither Princess Jin'an nor Fu Yuanling wanted to mention this topic, and the two of them changed the topic together.

Princess Jin'an said: "What are you going to do about Mei Chengchuan?" ”

"I'm afraid this matter is not what I want to do, but what the fourth brother does." Fu Yuanling took a long breath, "Sister Huang, at this point today, the prince and I have no room to retreat, so we can only keep moving forward." As for how far it will go, no one can say. ”

Princess Jin'an looked into the distance, she understood what the ninth brother and sister meant, not only her and Xiao Jiu's husband and wife, but she also had no room to retreat.

If King Wu is allowed to gain power, what good can he do as a princess.

What good can the Yang family who guards Tanglin Mansion have.

Changing flags is not an easy task.

To a certain extent, Concubine Li De calculates some things well, even if the queen mother wants to cultivate other princes, but it is more about deterring Concubine Li De, not that she can really give up King Chu easily.

"Do you want your brother-in-law to help?" Princess Jin'an asked.

Fu Yuanling shook his head, "I have to ask the fourth brother and the prince about this, I don't know if I need my brother-in-law's help, and when I ask the prince, if you need your brother-in-law to help, then ask your brother-in-law to help." ”

Princess Jin'an nodded, "It's okay, it's all a family, you're welcome." ”

Fu Yuanling bowed his head.

The two parted at the fork in the road, and Fu Yuanling watched Princess Jin'an enter the Appreciation Pavilion opposite, and only then did he turn around and enter the Nishang Xuan.

Xiao Jiuqi hasn't come back yet, Mama You and Mother Dou took the two children to play in the garden, Fu Yuanling let himself calm down and carefully filter the things during this time.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that Xiao Jiuqi came back, but he was in a hurry, came back to say hello to Fu Yuanling, turned around and left.

didn't catch Mei Chengchuan, it seemed that Mei Chengchuan got the news and knew that someone was looking for him, so he slipped away quietly before Xiao Jiuqi and the others arrived.

Not a soul was there.

Xiao Jiuqi had suffered such a grievance, came back to discuss with the king of Chu, and set off down the mountain overnight with his people.

The night on the mountain was obviously hot in summer, but Fu Yuanling felt a little cold.

She knew from her dream that Mei Chengchuan was cunning and had frequent means, since she came prepared, she was afraid that she would not be caught so easily.

At the beginning, Mei Chengchuan suffered a big loss in his own hands, firstly, because Fu Yuanling knew that the things in the dream took the lead, and secondly, because the Mei family was unfamiliar with the place when they first arrived in Shangjing, so they suffered a loss.

Now that Mei Chengchuan has gained a firm foothold, it is obviously not easy for him to suffer such a big loss again.

Xiao Jiuqi didn't come back for a few days, even if the emperor had the queen mother there to cover, the emperor also noticed that something was wrong, so he summoned Fu Yuanling to inquire.

Although Fu Yuanling lives in the palace, he has rarely seen His Majesty since he called, and he has not seen him for more than half a month, His Majesty's back seems to be a little bent, and he also looks a little lacking in qi when he speaks.

It is not far from the day when His Majesty is sick in the dream, why he is sick, he doesn't know in the dream, but he knows that His Majesty's illness has not been able to recover until she dies, but it is just a matter of surviving the days.

Fu Yuanling's heart sank.

The emperor raised his eyes to look at Fu Yuanling and coughed lightly, "Say, what did Xiao Jiu do?" ”

Fu Yuanling lowered her eyes for a while, she really didn't know what she should say to His Majesty.

Honestly?

Lie?

Although His Majesty is dying of old age, he is not confused, it is not easy to coax His Majesty, if it happens, the lie she tells today will become a precursor to the collapse of her trust in His Majesty's heart.

Fu Yuanling's palms were sweaty, this was the first time he was so nervous, scared, and worried.

The emperor looked at Fu Yuanling, it was rare to see her hesitant like this, it was obvious that there was something, but he was hesitating to speak.

The emperor just looked at Fu Yuanling and didn't speak, neither urging nor getting angry, just looked at her.

Fu Yuanling is like a mang, forget it, this is not a secret matter, and His Majesty is not ignorant of the grievances with the Mei family at the beginning.

Fu Yuanling decided to tell the truth, but how to tell the truth is also a skill.

"Father, my daughter-in-law is indeed in a difficult situation, and I really don't know how to tell you." Fu Yuanling raised his head and looked at the emperor with a look of embarrassment, but his heart was nervous like a drum.

"Oh? It's strange, you've always been bold, and since you're so embarrassed, think of something terrible, let's say it. The Emperor made the final decision.
