Chapter 257: I know I can't do it, but I can't let it go

Ji Wanqing was stimulated by every word of her father, not a word, like a knife digging into her heart, and she was dripping blood in pain.

Yan Xingchen's handsome Yan, like a carving, lingered in her mind at this time, knowing that she couldn't do it, but she couldn't let it go!

She closed her eyes deeply, still covering her beautiful face with the lines of tears.

"Father, I promise!"

This sentence seemed to drain all her strength, and when she said the last word, she collapsed directly on the Taishi chair behind her!

Ji Jianchun shook his head and sighed deeply.

"Okay, you just need to do it according to your father's arrangement, and the future queen position must be yours!"

Such a big temptation didn't make Ji Wanqing half tempted. What she wanted, except for Yan Xingchen's people and heart at this time, it seemed that everything was no longer important to her.

Originally, Shu Qingai planned to leave during this time, and Ling'er was thinking about those pearls in the center of her mind all day long.

Yan Minyang's departure made Shu Qingai prepare in advance.

While she was looking around for the remaining pearls, she could also look around for Yan Minyang's whereabouts.

Just when she was about to talk to Yan Xingchen about this, the eunuchs in the palace hurriedly recruited Yan Xingchen into the palace.

As soon as Yan Xingchen left, Qingmo Hall ushered in a person who surprised Shu Qingai.

"Princess, the prince has long commanded that no outsiders are allowed to enter the Qingmo Hall and Yinxiang Garden, even if it is a person from the palace, they are not allowed to enter and exit at will, this woman came in at this time, and chose to leave when the prince left, maybe, she must have some ghost idea!"

Lian Meilian waited in front of the gate of Yinxiangyuan for the maid to talk back. Knowing that it was Lian Meilian who asked to see her, Hua Hao's whole person was even more nervous than Shu Qingai!

She looked at Shu Qingai's defenseless strange expression, and couldn't help but remind her in her own princess's ear.

Shu Qingai raised her head and smiled gently at the flowers.

"You girl, you have a lot of eyes, and then it will be much more reliable than Qingyou and the full moon, with a girl like you, how can we also stage that palace scheming."

"Gong scheming? What is the palace scheming? ”

Hua Hao asked with a puzzled face, Shu Qingai looked at her cute appearance, and her mood was much better.

She didn't answer Hua Hao's words, but waved at the maid outside the dormitory.

"Bring her in."

After receiving the order, the maid walked out respectfully. Hua Hao saw that her princess looked confident, and she didn't say much to remind, so she went to the pavilion outside the palace with her and waited.

That dormitory was the room between her and Yan Xingchen, a woman who was so worried about her man, how could Shu Qingai invite that person in. Think that if you do that, it will only be a diaphragm for yourself!

After a long time, the two teas were drunk, and at the gate of the Qingmo Palace, the figure of Lian Meilian appeared.

From a distance, her complexion is much better today, and she is not as general as the previous two times I saw her, thinking that if she is not careful, the next moment will be lost.

Xiao Tao followed, and when they entered this hall, they saw a huge lake like an eye, and she was already surprised to close her mouth!

After coming to the Chenwang Mansion for all these years, their master and servant have never known that in the palace, in addition to the Yin Xiang Garden, there is such a dangerous place!

Although it is not yet autumn, the lake is already covered with a thin layer of fog in the early morning.

The occasional few lotus leaves in the lake are still there, guarding the lake in the wind.

The majestic and luxurious hall in the original place was even more shrouded in a layer of white mist. If they weren't awake now, they would have thought they had come to heaven.

Even Meilian's face was the same, her red lips were tight, and she walked forward without squinting, but those beautiful scenery had already been seared into her heart.

All of this was built for that woman by her brother Chen!

Even if she comes, she has to get the woman's consent! How can such a place be inhabited by such a rural village woman!

She loves him deeply, but he turns a blind eye, and the existence of this woman is the biggest obstacle between her and her brother Chen.

"Lian'er has seen the princess."

When she arrived at the pavilion, Shu Qingai didn't get up, but looked at Lian Meilian walking towards her with a smile on her face.

Last time Yan Xingchen's warning, this woman actually took it to heart.

Presumably she called herself like this, and her heart was as uncomfortable as a needle prick.

"Flowers, show Miss Lian a seat."

Shu Qingai nodded, and then lightly instructed Hua Hao, who was standing respectfully behind her.

Hua Hao owed a slight owe and whispered.

Even Mei Lian was not polite and sat down opposite Shu Qingai.

With a fair face, surrounded by the morning dewdrops, her beauty really made Shu Qingai a little jealous.

"Miss Lian's illness, after being seen by the Imperial Doctor Liu, is really much better, and today's complexion is much better than before, you can go to the street if you have nothing to do, but don't stay in the house all day long, and your body is suffocated."

Shu Qingai seemed to be very familiar with Lian Meilian, and said with concern.

"Thanks to the princess's concern, Lian'er's body is indeed much better, or she can't walk in the princess's big garden for so long, and she will be fine."

Lian Meilian never seemed to smile. Except for the first casual meeting between her and Shu Qingai in Chenwangfu, Shu Qingai had never seen a trace of a smile on her face.

"Then Miss Lian came over today, but is there something?"

Of course Shu Qingai didn't believe it, Lian Meilian was suffocating in the yard and deliberately came to play and chat with her.

She doesn't go around in circles with her, she just pours it out.

Lian Meilian stared at Shu Qingai quietly, and then shook her head.

"Didn't Brother Chen say some time ago that he was going to build a courtyard for Lian'er outside the palace? Lian'er also thought about it, so it's okay. After all, Lian'er is just Brother Chen's cousin, so it's not good to live in Brother Chen's mansion all the time, and I came here today specifically for this matter. ”

Shu Qingai's expression on her face kept smiling faintly, and when she heard Lian Meilian's words, there was no expression of joy or surprise on her face.

"Then why didn't you tell the prince in person, isn't Miss Lian wanting the county lord to buy it for you? If that's the case, it's not impossible, anyway, the county lord doesn't lack that bit of silver, not to mention that it stands to reason that you still have to call me a cousin-in-law, which is also okay. When you get married in the future, you will be dressed up. ”

When Lian Meilian heard Shu Qingai's words, her hand hidden under the white wide sleeves tightened and tightened.

This woman really regards herself as Brother Chen's wife!

Is she really worthy?

Although she was anxious about this woman in her heart, she couldn't do anything about her now. But sooner or later, she will definitely be able to be small to the end, watching how miserable the woman ends.

"Then thank you princess, by the way, after all, you are also Brother Chen's wife, as Brother Chen's cousin, Lian'er has never given a gift to the princess, this string of snow lotus crystals is Lian'er's favorite string of hand beads, Lian'er should make up for the congratulatory gift when you get married, and please don't dislike the princess."

As she spoke, Lian Meilian had already taken out a white brocade box from her sleeve.

The brocade box was opened, and a string of transparent lotus flowers was arranged in a string, lying quietly in the brocade box, flashing with crystal clear light.

Shu Qingai raised her eyebrows, and quickly concealed the accident in her heart. His face immediately changed to a happy look, and he reached out and took the brocade box that Lian Meilian handed to him.

"It's so beautiful, Miss Lian, you have a heart."

Seeing the brocade box under Shu Qingai's hand, the corners of Lian Meilian's mouth rose slightly, and she immediately returned to normal.

How can such a country woman have seen the world, but just a string of crystals can make her happy to be like this.

After sending something, the two had nothing to talk about, even Mei Lian said goodbye, and Shu Qingai didn't keep it. With a smile, she left the door of the Qingmo Palace, and then Twilight looked faintly at the brocade box on the stone table.

"Princess, this crystal is indeed beautiful, but it is also an ordinary thing, I just wonder if this woman really has such a good heart?"

A quiet voice sounded behind Shu Qingai, she didn't say much, but at this time she also saw that Lian Meilian felt ill-intentioned!

If you are a woman, you will not give yourself a gift generously to your rival.

Even if she is a person who does not understand feelings, she will not.

"Hehe, even if you don't remind me, I know. It's just that this thing is so ordinary, I don't know what kind of mystery is hidden. ”

After the words fell, Shu Qingai took the brocade box on the table, put it in the cuffs, and directly put it into the space.

Lian Meilian walked out of the Qingmo Hall accompanied by the maid Xiaotao.

At a gate, I met a maid with a tray and a bowl of black soup on it.

When the maid saw Lian Meilian, although she didn't know her, it could be seen that she had an extraordinary temperament, so she still stopped, bent her knees and saluted.

"This is for your princess?"

Lian Meilian asked in a faint voice, but Buzi had already walked to the maid's side, reached out and picked up the medicine bowl in the tray, put it directly between the noses, and sniffed it.

"Miss Hui, the slave doesn't know."

The maid is just an envoy maid, and after decocting the medicine, she is responsible for sending it to this Qingmo Palace, and then handing it over to Huahao and them.

"How could you not know? Isn't this medicine for which maid? ”

Seeing that the maid answered her young lady like this, Xiao Tao immediately calmed down and scolded the envoy maid in a low voice.

The maid's body trembled, although she had been in this palace for the past few days, she had not been reprimanded.

When she entered Xiao Tao's roar, she couldn't help but tremble a few times when she was even holding the tray in fright.

"Don't be rude, alright, let's go."

Xiao Tao pursed her lips, and then returned to her respectful rightness, and said respectfully to Lian Meilian.

Just when the maid didn't know how to answer, Lian Meilian had already put the medicine bowl in her hand back into the wooden tray and said to Xiao Tao on the side.

The maid breathed a sigh of relief, and did not dare to raise her head, so she bent her knees and watched them leave.

Except for the medicine sent to Shu Qingai's woman, there is no way that anyone else in the Qingmo Hall will have the ability to drink this medicine.

But isn't this too coincidental, so it's just right.

How could her belly conceive a child for her noble brother Chen!

She's glad she's here.

The maid brought the medicine to the Qingmo Palace, and when Hua Hao took it, she saw that the maid wanted to speak and stopped, and she didn't leave in confusion, but asked.

"Xiaolan, what are you doing?"

"Sister Huahao, then, when I was just delivering the medicine, I met a woman and a maid at the door, and the woman was also curious about who the medicine was sent to, and she also slammed the pill, you, look at this medicine, do you need to fry it again."
