Chapter 172: Grafting
It has been several days since the incident in the Qiyue Palace, and Shen Yu is still looking at Shen Ning intact in shock, tears are flowing down, fortunately, the gods and Buddhas bless him, and his heart and liver are safe!
When she heard the assassin running towards the Qiyue Hall in the Penglai Palace, she was so frightened that she couldn't speak, if it weren't for Shen An's support for her, she would not have been able to stand still, and she only knew how to cry. (Mushroom, Cool, Little, Guy's favorite reading network)
Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing also looked shocked when they heard that Shen Ning was in the Qiyue Palace, and when everyone in the Shen family was about to rush out of the Penglai Hall to find Shen Ning desperately, they didn't expect the general Jin Wuwei to come in with her and the county lord of Rongping.
The two of them were well dressed and ignorant, and they didn't know what was going on. After Shen Yu's inquiry, he learned that the palace maid had passed the wrong word, and the county lord of Rongping had asked her to meet in the Yongya Mountain House, so she had never been to the Qiyue Palace at all.
"Thank goodness! Thank you to the gods and Buddhas! Fortunately, I didn't go to the Qiyue Palace, and I was really worried about my mother. Shen Yu didn't have the slightest doubt about Shen Ning's explanation, wiped away his tears and said with a smile.
When Shen Ning saw Shen Yu's crying and laughing, he couldn't help but feel deeply guilty: It is really undeserved to make her mother worry so much! This is not to be a daughter!
Her guilty look fell in the eyes of Shen Huashan, who had been observing her, and attracted Shen Huashan's attention. He has always known that this granddaughter has always been smart, could it be that the affairs of the Qiyue Palace have something to do with her? He began to connect the events in the Qiyue Hall with Shen Ning, full of questions.
"Let's talk about it, what's going on in the Qiyue Palace? Who the hell was the Assassin? In the study, Shen Huashan asked Shen Ning in a flat tone, suppressing his anger.
He was genuinely curious. What role does this granddaughter play in the whole thing of Heyuan, and what exactly did she do? Why don't you tell your family and do it yourself? Too bold!
As soon as Shen Huashan's words fell, Shen Zejing and Shen Yuhong raised their heads and looked at Shen Ning in disbelief: Father and grandfather meant to say. This major event discussed by everyone in Jingzhao, the major event that put the five princes to fall into a trough, is it the handiwork of his daughter and sister? How is it possible, she hasn't reached it yet!
Shen Ning looked at Shen Huashan's perceptive eyes. Sighing slightly, she knew that her explanation was too far-fetched, and it was impossible to hide it from her grandfather.
Now that the matter has happened, it is time for her grandfather and father to know, she carefully considered the wording, and presented the truth that Jingzhao officials did not know and Shangguan Changzhi was confused in his heart in front of Shen Huashan and the others.
After Shen Ning received the warning message from the grasshopper in the palace, he speculated that Shangguan Changzhi would take advantage of the queen's banquet to plot against her. And the biggest possibility is to destroy her innocence. What's done is done; When Shen Ning reigned in Shangguan. She had no other way to go than to marry him, and then use the power of the emperor. The Shen family had to support him - this was Shangguan Changzhi's plan.
With his understanding of him in his past life and present life, Shen Ning easily guessed Shangguan Changzhi's plan. And what she did was to plan and let Shangguan Changzhi taste the bitter fruits.
Shen Ning knew that Shangguan Changzhi would definitely send someone to lure her to do that bad thing elsewhere, and he would also send someone to witness this matter, and the only place that met these two conditions was the Qiyue Hall not far from Penglai Palace!
So she had already prepared in the Qiyue Palace; As soon as she stepped into the Qiyue Hall and came into contact with Shangguan Changzhi, she had already used a blur on Shangguan Changzhi without a trace, and took advantage of Shangguan Changzhi's confusion to use a trick to transfer flowers and trees - the grasshopper had already used the secret passage to hide the top brand of the Xufeng Pavilion in the Qiyue Palace, secretly observing the situation in the Qiyue Palace.
When Shangguan Changzhi's guards withdrew from the Qiyue Hall under Shen Ning's design, Shen Ning took the opportunity to open the door to check, swapped identities with Siru, hid in the secret passage, and then came out from another entrance to the Heyuan, of course, after the "assassins" outside the Penglai Hall led everyone to the Qiyue Palace, they also escaped from the secret passage, leaving Huang Yanqing and others to witness the absurdity of Shangguan Changzhi.
"This is the truth of Heyuan's matter......" Shen Ning considered the wording, and lightly explained what happened, without saying the hardships involved, the matter had passed, and she didn't want to cause her grandfather and father to worry about it anymore.
Of course, she didn't want her grandfather and father to feel that she was acting rashly, all of what she did was well thought out, and she faced Shangguan Changzhi directly, and she was even more energetic, not daring to have the slightest negligence and carelessness.
"How can there be a secret passage in the Qiyue Palace? Never heard of it at all! Otherwise, Huang Yanqing would have been pursued along the secret passage? How do you know that there is a secret passage in the Qiyue Temple? After listening to Shen Ning's description, Shen Huashan immediately knew the key.
From Shen Ning's description, the key to everything is in that secret passage; The matter of the secret passage, as an important minister of Zhongshu Province, he didn't know about the secret passage, how could Shen Ning know about the secret passage after living in the back house for a long time?
"The granddaughter doesn't know, this is what the eldest son of the Yongning Hou family told his granddaughter, it was he who found a secret passage outside Jingzhao City by chance, and after investigating, he found that this secret passage leads to Heyuan, and the granddaughter happened to know this, so she came up with this method." Shen Ning said the words that had been prepared a long time ago.
She had already been angry with Ying Nantu for this reason, and she also thought that the dealings between her and Ying Nantu should be told to her grandfather and father.
"Prince Yongning? And what is the connection with him? Shen Zejing was confused by Shen Ning's words, and it was difficult to digest so much shocking news for a while.
So, my daughter has been writing letters with other men? This is a private teaching, how can it be?!
"Yes, the eldest son of the Yongning Hou family, who did not hide from his grandfather and father, Xu Youzhen, the lover who controlled the water in front of the stage, was also recommended by the son; Hu Zhaochang, a genius craftsman from the Crossbow Workshop Department last year, was also rescued thanks to his help...... "Shen Ning told Ying Nantu what he did for the Shen family one by one, if it wasn't for his help, he and the Shen family would definitely not be so happy, so no matter what, I have to thank him a lot!"
No matter how his grandfather and father would react when they heard this, Shen Ning thought that he couldn't ignore Ying Nantu's important role in it, and the facts also proved that if he and Ying Nantu joined forces, things would go extremely smoothly, wouldn't it?
“…… What's going on with the little guy in the Void Phoenix Pavilion? Shen Yuhong was speechless by Shen Ning's words, and only subconsciously said such a sentence after a long time, this is the gossip that everyone in Jingzhao wants to know, his wife Shen Chengshi has been talking about this all day long, and he himself wants to know what is going on.
"The little man of the Xufeng Pavilion was found by Ying Gongzi, and he only said that he would be willing to serve the five princes, and he promised that he would not leak secrets, and I don't know the reason." Faced with Shen Yuhong's question, Shen Ning didn't know, originally she wanted to find someone to replace her, but Ying Nantu found Siru.
When Shen Ning swapped identities with him, she thought he was a girl, but she only found out afterwards that it was a little girl, which was even better than her original plan!
"......" Shen Huashan didn't know what to say, should he blame his granddaughter for being bold and acting like this without consulting them? Or should she blame someone else? Or should she be praised for her thoughtfulness and scheming?
In fact, she played this trick so beautifully that Shen Huashan himself was not sure that he could come up with such a plan! Thinking of the current situation of the five princes, thinking of everything that Jingzhao officials were puzzled about, strange, Shen Huashan did not feel the slightest anger, but had a deep sense of pride, this granddaughter really did not disappoint him!
"Ning'er is too arbitrary, grounded for half a month, and punished for copying scriptures for half a month! Also, don't have private dealings with outsiders! This time it is just a small punishment and a big commandment, and such a thing must not happen again. Ning'er, are you convinced? After a long time, Shen Huashan announced the disposition of Shen Ning.
Although this granddaughter did not disappoint him, she was sharp, and she was too eager and dangerous, and he wanted to frustrate her spirit. Although she didn't say how she got out of the Five Princes, he could also imagine what a critical situation was at that time, if it wasn't for the carelessness of the Five Princes, then it was her and the Shen family who were in the plot now!
Such a big event, she didn't even discuss it with her family, and went to find an outsider to help, thinking of this, Shen Huashan was a little angry, fortunately it's okay now, if something happens, they are still kept in the dark, is this the Shen family's doing? You have to teach her a good lesson!
"Father......" Shen Zejing stopped talking, he also thought that this daughter was too arbitrary, but he was distressed when he thought of his daughter being grounded, but his father's punishment was very reasonable, so he couldn't help but plead for Shen Ning.
After Shen Ning exited the study, Shen Huashan explained: "Hong'er, I ordered Ruliu to collect all the information of the eldest prince of Yongning, be sure to be detailed!" I want to know who he is. Also, find an opportunity to meet him as soon as possible. ”
"If something so big happens, the five princes will definitely regard our family as mortal enemies. There is still more than a month to go before Ning'er and Lu, and I am worried that the five princes will ask the emperor for marriage. Shen Zejing said worriedly, Ning'er is really a little rash this time, the five princes must have taken a lot of precautions against the Shen family, and it is useless to use the word "drag" again, which means that the Shen family and the five princes are about to face each other.
"It's a little bit earlier than expected, but it's not a big problem. The five princes have thought about it behind closed houses, presumably it won't be too long, if he is also circled by the emperor, the second prince will be alone, and the position of the prince is none other than the second prince. I guess the emperor's favorite candidate will not be the second prince, otherwise he would have been appointed a long time ago, and there would be so many disputes there? Regarding Shen Zejing's worries, Shen Hua was so good that he didn't have much to worry about.
"What does Father mean?" Shen Zejing was confused by Shen Huashan, didn't he talk about Ning'er's marriage? How did you transfer to the emperor's preferred candidate? No matter who the emperor prefers, the Shen family has already decided to support the twelve princes, is there any difference?
"I mean, we have to settle Ning'er's marriage before the five princes ask for marriage, and we must not let the five princes ask for marriage, otherwise, the Shen family will be led away by him, so I'm anxious to see the one in Ning'er's mouth." Shen Hua said.
Thinking of Shangguan Changzhi, his eyes were also a little deep, and he wanted to ruin his granddaughter's innocence? This account, the Shen family and the Five Princes' Mansion have to be calculated slowly!
