Chapter Ninety-Five: Cracks Emerge
"Queen Mother, this matter is not trivial, if you don't investigate it clearly, I really don't feel at ease." Emperor Yun glanced at Liu Wushuang with cold eyes.
"Your Majesty, the mourning family knows that you are filial, but maybe Wushuang just accidentally got the dragon ginseng grass somewhere, and the loving family believes that she will definitely not harm the mourning family."
Seeing that Empress Dowager Liu's attitude was insistent, Emperor Yun didn't say anything more, but just warned Liu Wushuang again, and then left the Empress Dowager's palace.
"Princess, looking at the Queen Mother's appearance, it seems that she still wants to defend Miss Liu, and our plan should have failed."
On the palace road, Qiu'er lowered her voice and spoke a little sullenly.
"The Queen Mother will defend Liu Wushuang, and this matter has long been expected by me. The Queen Mother has high hopes for Liu Wushuang, and she will definitely not give up on her just because of this one thing. Yun Qingyan raised his eyebrows.
"Princess, aren't we doing useless work?" Qiu'er opened her mouth in confusion.
"How so." Yun Qingyan smiled, before she asked Qiu'er to sprinkle the medicinal powder on Liu Wushuang's neck and hair, the smell of this medicinal powder lasted after it touched people's skin, and it was difficult to distinguish it if it was not someone who knew medicine.
As for the prescription taken by the Empress Dowager Liu, Liu Wushuang was indeed not wrong, this matter has never been a secret in the palace, as long as you pay attention and inquire a little, you can find out.
"Empress Dowager Liu and Liu Wushuang seem to have a close relationship with each other, but in the final analysis, there is always a relationship between the two of them. Now this matter may not be enough for Empress Dowager Liu to give up Liu Wushuang, but it will definitely cause a rift between the two of them. Once there is a gap between people, it is difficult to guarantee that the crack will not get bigger and bigger. ”
And this time, it's just a tear in the relationship between two people that seems to be strong.
Qiu'er thought about it seriously, and nodded after a moment, "What the princess said makes sense!" Even if the Queen Mother defended Miss Liu in this matter, she would definitely feel uncomfortable in her heart. Maybe the relationship between the two people will get worse and worse in the future, and it is best for the Queen Mother to drive Miss Liu out of the palace directly, so as to save her from continuing to stay in the palace and harm the princess. ”
"If you want the Queen Mother to drive Liu Wushuang out of the palace, you must first let her see clearly that Liu Wushuang has no role for her at all." Yun Qingyan paused, stopped, and glanced back at the gate of the Empress Dowager's palace, "I just don't know if after such a thing happened, the next competition with Dongyang Kingdom, will the Empress Dowager let Liu Wushuang participate." ”
In the palace of the Queen Mother.
Liu Wushuang knelt in front of the Empress Dowager Liu, "Empress Dowager, Wushuang really didn't want to harm you, I don't know anything about this matter at all." ”
Empress Dowager Liu snorted coldly, the trust and maintenance of Liu Wushuang between her words and expressions just now had already disappeared without a trace.
"The mourning family has kept you in this palace for so long, and has always trusted you, and taught you a lot of ways to survive in this palace, but I never thought that you would dare to dare to calculate the mourning family!"
hurt yourself coughing more than once, and then come to yourself to show filial piety, in order to ease the relationship with yourself, it is really a clear calculation.
"Queen Mother, Wushuang really doesn't have this matter, someone must have framed him." Liu Wushuang panicked in her heart, and her intuition told her that this matter must have nothing to do with Yun Qingyan, but she didn't have any evidence to prove it.
"Okay, the mourners don't want to hear you quibble." Empress Dowager Liu looked at Liu Wushuang coldly, "In front of the emperor just now, the mourning family chose to keep it, presumably you should know why." ”
Liu Wushuang gritted his teeth and nodded, "Wushuang will definitely not disappoint the Queen Mother." ”
"The mourning family can give you another chance, but this time you must win the competition with Dongyang Kingdom, otherwise...... I'm afraid that I really have to think about it, and whether I want to keep you by my side. ”
Liu Wushuang trembled, what did Empress Dowager Liu mean by this, did she want to give up on herself?
"Let's go down and reflect on it." Empress Dowager Liu closed her eyes, full of the appearance that she didn't want to see Liu Wushuang again.
Liu Wushuang also knew that no matter how he explained at this time, I was afraid that Empress Dowager Liu would not believe it, so she could only choose to retreat.
And after Liu Wushuang left, Empress Dowager Liu suddenly opened her eyes and instructed the grandmothers around her to keep an eye on Liu Wushuang, and she must not be allowed to play any tricks again.
……
Two days later, the envoy of Dongyang Kingdom entered the imperial city.
Emperor Yun's original plan was to marry Yun Xiyue and An Jingxuan before the envoy arrived, but for some reason, the news suddenly spread that An Jingxuan was suddenly infected with an emergency.
It is said that it is very dangerous, and the whole person has fallen unconscious in the house, and the matter of marriage is naturally put on hold for the time being.
In King An's mansion, An Jingxuan and Pei Ji sat at the table drinking tea together.
"Do you think it's a good idea to fake your illness?"
"It is true that you can avoid the emperor's marriage for the time being, but it is not a long-term solution after all." Although An Jingxuan didn't really have any emergency, after returning from the palace that day, the whole person was indeed infected with wind and cold, and he saw that he was a little thinner than a few days ago.
"The envoy of Dongyang arrived in the imperial city today, during this period, the emperor will naturally not mention the matter of marriage, and the prince's illness will almost be cured in a few days."
"What's the difference between good and bad?" An Jingxuan put down the teacup in his hand, "It's better to stay in this mansion all the time, be an idle son, and drink tea and drink happily." ”
"Looking at the appearance of the prince, is it not going well on the eldest princess's side?" Pei Ji asked.
"She has clearly rejected this son, and there is no longer any possibility between me and her." An Jingxuan smiled bitterly.
"Is the prince planning to give up just like that?"
"What if you don't give up?" An Jingxuan paused for a moment, remembering the words of Yun Qingyan that day, "If I continue to entangle now, not to mention whether I can retain the last bit of dignity, I am afraid that it will also bring her distress." ”
Rather than that, she might as well just let it go, or at least fulfill her wishes.
"If the prince really wants to give up, he will naturally not say anything more, after all, there is no grass at the end of the world, but he dares to ask the prince." Pei Ji looked at An Jingxuan, "If one day the eldest princess marries Feng Yihan, or marries someone else, between husband and wife, Qin Se and Ming, and love lingers, if the prince sees such a picture, won't he really be sad?" ”
An Jingxuan's pupils contracted suddenly, he could accept Yun Qingyan's rejection of him, but if he really let him watch Yun Qingyan reconcile with other couples......
The unwillingness and pain in his heart seemed to intensify a little, and An Jingxuan held the teacup in front of him fiercely.
Pei Ji's gaze swept over An Jingxuan's hand and hooked the corners of his mouth, "Heh, looking at the appearance of the prince, I should be unwilling, since this is the case, why give up now." ”
