With the queen's father and mother in the imperial city, the emperor no longer has the extra mind to deal with the previous matter, and the matter at hand is directly thrown aside, for fear that the queen will suspect it.

It is precisely because of this that Jiang Qiancheng won the most critical time, after leaving Jiangnan City, he quickly stepped up, and finally returned to the imperial city after running for two days and two nights without stopping on a sweaty BMW.

Shan Wu, who was guarding the East Palace, went to answer him: "Your Highness, you are finally back!" ”

Jiang Qiancheng gasped: "What is the situation in the Imperial City now?" ”

"Your Highness, please rest assured, now that there is a queen mother in the imperial city, naturally there is no big problem, the emperor is busy taking care of the queen mother's father-in-law and mother-in-law, and he has not summoned you once."

Jiang Qiancheng was a little surprised: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law? You mean, the queen really brought her parents to the imperial city? ”

"Yes, thanks to their delay in delaying the emperor, Your Highness, you can return to the imperial city safe and sound."

Jiang Qiancheng nodded, this time he really had to thank the queen mother, but he didn't go to see her immediately, he was very tired now, and he urgently needed to sleep and rest.

After returning to the East Palace, Jiang Qiancheng went directly to the bedroom, and Shan Wu followed him in: "Is Your Highness going to rest?" ”

"Well," Jiang Qiancheng nodded: "I may sleep directly until tomorrow, and you can help take care of everything before then, and then deal with it when I am rested." ”

"Yes!"

Shan Wu did things, Jiang Qiancheng had always been very relieved, he rushed back overnight, and he was really tired, and he didn't have the slightest strength to deal with other things.

After Shan Wu left Jiang Qiancheng's room, he pretended to be casual and patrolled the East Palace, as long as Jiang Qiancheng was in the East Palace, let alone sleeping until tomorrow, even if he slept until the day after tomorrow, it would be no problem!

And the queen mother in the palace also quickly got the news that Jiang Qiancheng, who had secretly sent someone from Shan Wu, had returned to the East Palace.

The queen mother was a little surprised, the speed of this Jiang Qiancheng is really fast, in just a few days, she actually went back and forth to Jiangnan City, I am afraid that she didn't sleep at all along the way!

Pearl stood behind the queen mother to help her comb her hair, and said cautiously: "Queen Mother, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned to the imperial city, should we also call the fifth prince back?" ”

"Call him back for what?"

"Niangniang, it's not that I don't know that I am going to see you in the imperial city now, there is no way to stop Your Majesty just by virtue of one His Royal Highness the Prince, you are in the palace, and you are restricted everywhere, it is better to call the fifth prince back to help."

The queen mother frowned slightly, although she was unwilling to let Jiang Qianbai get involved in this matter, but what Pearl said was right, anyway, Jiang Qianbai was also idle in Jiangnan City, so it was better to come back to the imperial city to do something useful!

"Okay, then do as you say, pass the book to Jiang Qianbai Feige, and let him come back to the imperial city immediately to help!"

"Yes."

Jiang Qiancheng really slept until noon the next day before getting up, and the feeling of waking up was so refreshing, it was rare for him to have such a feeling.

Seeing that he was awake, Shan Wu walked to his side: "Your Highness, the queen mother just sent someone to deliver a message, saying that she has already sent a pigeon to the fifth prince, and asked him to come back to help us." ”

Jiang Qiancheng nodded, raised his hand again and patted his head: "How is the situation on the emperor's side?" ”

"It's still the same as before, the queen mother took him to accompany the two old men to hang out in the imperial city, but judging by the emperor's recent performance, he should be about to find an excuse to send the two old men back."

"It would be strange if he had been patient with them."

"What Your Highness said," Yama Wu smiled, "then what are we going to do next?" Or wait and see? ”

"What the emperor asked us to investigate before, how far has the progress of your side been?"

"All the rich merchants on the list have all evacuated from the imperial city, and most of their money is stored in the underground = money bank, and there are special people in charge of taking care of it, although the emperor knows that the rich businessmen's money is gone, but because his father-in-law and mother-in-law are in the imperial city, he did not dare to make a big search."

"Good."

"Your Highness, there is actually one more thing."

"What's the matter?"

"It's about Gu Shun, the king of Nan'an County," Shan Wu hesitated and said, "Princess Jiahe asked the king of Nan'an County before, asking when Miss Yue Qingming would be able to return to the imperial city and whether she could attend their wedding as promised. ”

Jiang Qiancheng was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face couldn't help but become serious, he frowned, he had been too busy recently, he had forgotten about Gu Shun and Jiahe Gonggong getting married!

If Yue Qingming was just going home to visit relatives, she would naturally be able to take her back to the imperial city immediately, but unfortunately things were not so simple, the emperor's people were still monitoring her, and she would not come back casually.

Jiang Qiancheng said: "It should be impossible for Yue Qingming to attend their wedding, but the congratulatory gifts that should be prepared are still ready and sent over in the name of Yue Qingming when the time comes." ”

"Yes."

Princess Golden Harvest Mansion.

Gu Shun was accompanying her in the courtyard to count the small items she bought from the market, all of which were novel, but Princess Jiahe did not have a happy expression on her face.

"What's wrong with you?" Gu Shun asked her: "I bought everything you want, is there anything you are not happy about?" Is there something missing that I didn't buy? ”

"No," Princess Jiahe shook her head, "I'm just thinking about one thing." ”

"What's the matter?"

"I'm wondering why Yue Qingming suddenly went back to Jiangnan City, and he hasn't come back for so long, could it be that he quarreled with His Royal Highness the Prince? Even if it's a quarrel, you don't have to come back for so long! ”

Gu Shun smiled and said, "I didn't see that you would care so much about Yue Qing's things before." ”

"I'm just worried that she won't come back to my wedding with you."

Gu Shun stretched out his hand and touched Princess Jiahe's hair, and comforted softly: "Your relationship with Yue Qingming is not bad, since she promised to come before, it will definitely come, it's still early, don't think nonsense." ”

Princess Jiahe smiled and nodded, but when her eyes looked at the novel objects in her hand, there was no smile in her eyes.

Gu Shun cautiously looked at Princess Jiahe's expression, glanced at the object in her hand again, and then said with a smile: "Don't think about it, Yue Qingming will come back." ”

"Gu Shun, I don't know what's going on, I always feel that things are a little weird."

"What's wrong?"

"I don't think Yue Qingming will leave for so long, because Jiang Qiancheng is here, how can she be willing to leave him here? There must be something inside this! ”
