"Then what if it's not King Cheng who killed the master?" Nuanqin continued to ask.

"If it's not him......" Song Qingzhi pondered.

"Okay, how can there be so many ifs, what the hell is going on?" Song Qingzhi shook her head.

"I just saw Miss Wen of Dr. Yushi's family, I saw that she was very close to the prince, and she joked with each other, not only was the prince not angry, but he also kept her for dinner." Nuanqin didn't hear the specifics, but looked at the two of them, you and me, and felt very intimate, and finally heard King Cheng say that he wanted Wen Nian'er to stay and eat.

"What's this, it's just that I have a good relationship with the prince, even if they really fall in love, I can't say anything if the prince marries her in the future, and besides, I don't like the king." Song Qingzhi said disappreciatively, but she didn't know that something was wrong.

At dinner in the evening, Song Qingzhi asked Nuan Qin to take the food back to the courtyard, she didn't want to see Wen Nian'er, she didn't care about Wen Nian'er and King Cheng's intimacy, but she felt that she would be a little embarrassed if she went.

"Lord, didn't you tell me that you could see the princess at dinner, why don't you see the princess when this meal is almost finished?" Wen Nian'er watched Nangong Shu open her mouth while eating.

"She was not feeling well, she went back to the room to eat, you didn't see her today, and she will be in a hurry after all. After eating in a while, I will ask Yanhuan to send you back, so as not to worry about Lord Wen if you go back late. Nangong Shu spoke.

"Okay, okay, it's been a wasted day." At this time, Wen Nian'er had lost interest, and after eating a few bites, she got off the table and let Yanhuan send it back.

"Is the princess really unwell?" After Yanhuan came back, Nangong Shu asked, originally he wanted to go and see it by himself just now, but in the end he couldn't help but go.

"The princess just doesn't seem to want to eat with the princess, and her body doesn't look wrong." Yan Huan spoke.

Nangong Shu heard Yanhuan say this, so he was relieved.

Early the next morning, Song Qingzhi was tossed by Nuanqin, "Isn't it just to enter the palace to thank you, why are you dressing me up like this?" Song Qingzhi hadn't woken up yet, she was at the mercy of Nuan Qin, and when everything was over, Song Qingzhi opened her half-closed eyes and saw herself in the mirror.

Nuan Qin put on delicate makeup for her, since her father left, Song Qingzhi has never dressed herself like this, and now she feels a little unaccustomed to seeing it.

Song Qingzhi still felt that it was inappropriate after looking at it for a long time, and reached out to tear it down but was stopped by Nuan Qin, "Miss, Miss can't dismantle it, this is what the prince ordered." ”

Song Qingzhi had no choice but to give up when she heard this, and went out with Nuan Qin. The carriage was already waiting at the gate of the palace, but he didn't see Nangong Shu. As soon as Song Qingzhi got into the carriage, she saw that Nangong Shu was already sitting in the car waiting for her, today's Nangong Shu was wearing palace clothes like her, and she looked a little more calm and imposing than when she wore regular clothes on weekdays.

However, Nangong Shu is usually calm enough, but now it looks a little old-fashioned.

"Why don't you come up soon?" Nangong Shu looked at Song Qingzhi who was parked at the door of the carriage and spoke.

Song Qingzhi also sat down, and the carriage slowly drove towards the palace.

Nangong Shu didn't hold any real power in the first place, and he often said that he was sick in the early dynasty, but now the big wedding is above board.

The carriage traveled to the palace, and Nangong Shu took Song Qingzhi to meet the saint and thank him. The process of thanking him was calm, and Song Qingzhi was also relieved.

The two were about to go back but saw the oncoming Nangong Ye on the palace alley, Song Qingzhi just silently lowered her head and didn't look at Nangong Ye.

"I wish the fourth brother to marry the princess." Nangong Ye sneered and walked over to talk to Nangong Shu.

"Thank you second brother, but Zhi'er is still in the filial piety period, and my father is in a hurry to let us get married, so I didn't hold a banquet this time. When Zhi'er's filial piety period is over, I will definitely make up a banquet, and then the second brother can come over and ask for a cup of wine. Nangong Shu looked at Nangong Ye and smiled.

"Okay, if the fourth brother has the opportunity to hold this banquet, I will definitely be there." Nangong Ye nodded and spoke.

Song Qingzhi didn't say a word from beginning to end, and Song Qingzhi breathed a sigh of relief after Nangong Ye left, and followed Nangong Shu to the outside of the palace.

"Why, I haven't relieved myself when I saw my old lover just now?" After getting into the car, Nangong Shu spoke.

Song Qingzhi glared at Nangong Shu and did not speak.

"In a few days, it will be the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the emperor will hold a banquet, and you will come when the time comes." Nangong Shu ignored Song Qingzhi's eyes and continued.

"The Queen Mother's birthday, I'm going too?" Song Qingzhi raised her head suddenly.

"Yes, you are the princess of Cheng, of course you have to attend." Nangong Shu spoke.

"Can I not go?" Song Qingzhi hadn't forgotten how the Queen Mother treated her, she didn't want to go.

"Then you will wait for the Queen Mother's birthday to find you alone." Nangong Shu smiled.

"Okay, I'll go." Song Qingzhi was helpless, but looking at the Queen Mother's attitude towards herself, if she really didn't go to celebrate her birthday, she was afraid that she would really be summoned alone.

Soon Song Qingzhi fell into new troubles, the Queen Mother's birthday must be a congratulatory gift, Chengwangfu naturally wants to send one, but usually the female family will prepare a gift alone, so it's good to give it to the Queen Mother.

Nangong Shu looked at Song Qingzhi's frowning appearance, and knew what she was thinking.

"Miss, went well to the palace today, right?" Returning to the palace, Nuan Qin asked with concern, now when King Cheng takes Song Qingzhi into the palace, Nuan Qin will hardly follow.

"It's going well, but the Queen Mother's birthday is coming." Song Qingzhi reluctantly spoke.

"Then the young lady just doesn't go." Nuan Qin watched Song Qingzhi come up with an idea.

"It's not okay not to go, anyway, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and it's a big deal to embarrass her, and I'll pass it with a few words." Song Qingzhi smiled.

Five days later, on the Queen Mother's birthday, Song Qingzhi entered the palace with Nangong Shu early in the morning. Although Nangong Shu didn't say it, she asked Yanhuan to prepare a birthday gift for the Queen Mother for her.

Because it is a birthday, everyone will generally arrive early, some nobles and female dependents will go to the queen's side to talk to the queen mother first, and the garden will not have a banquet in the evening, while other princes and ministers will talk about some light topics with the emperor.

It's not so much a palace banquet as a battlefield without gunsmoke. It's just a matter of getting together and fighting to see who is better.

Song Qingzhi and Nangong Shu arrived at the palace, and the two separated. Song Qingzhi was led to the queen's residence by the palace people, and among the princes, only King Cheng married the princess, and the other princes were either still young, or they were not married.

Song Qingzhi arrived at the queen's residence and saw that many nobles had arrived. These noble girls arrived early to find a good family for themselves, Song Qingzhi really didn't want to appear in front of everyone, but her identity had to meet the queen, so she had to muster up the courage to walk in.

"Qing Zhi greets the queen." Song Qingzhi followed the maid beside the queen to the queen.

"Yo, isn't this Princess Cheng? Hurry up, Hongu thought you would come later. The queen watched Song Qingzhi speak in surprise, and her voice just made those in the courtyard who didn't notice Song Qingzhi know that she was coming.

Song Qingzhi didn't care much, anyway, there must be something unpleasant, she just let go of it quietly for a while.

"This is Princess Cheng?"

"Yes, this princess Cheng was originally going to marry King Duan, but I didn't expect to ruin the marriage by herself, now we all have a chance."

"Yes, yes, I don't know what she thinks. But I heard that Duanwang likes her very much, and she was sad for a long time after she divorced. ”

The sound of discussion next to him immediately sounded, and it all reached Song Qingzhi's ears. But now that all eyes are on Song Qingzhi, the queen has no intention of letting her leave.

Song Qingzhi was thinking about how to get out, when a familiar voice sounded behind her. "Qingzhi, you're here so early." The person who came was Concubine Jing.

"Concubine Jing." Song Qingzhi nodded slightly.

The people next to him automatically made way for Concubine Jing, and they all waited expectantly to see a good show, Song Qingzhi dumped Concubine Jing's son, Concubine Jing will definitely give Song Qingzhi a good look this time. Everyone thought so, but they didn't expect what happened next to surprise them and couldn't talk about it.

"Queen Mother, you have so many noble ladies to accompany you and it is also lively, the concubine first asked you if it is okay to borrow Zhi'er for a while?" Concubine Jing looked at the queen with a smile and spoke.

"Concubine Jing wants it, and this palace will naturally give it." The queen nodded, Concubine Jing protected Song Qingzhi She knew it, she saw it last time she was in the Queen Mother, but she didn't know the reason.

"Zhi'er, the palace is very quiet, the flowers you sent last time were not pruned well, why is it still not as good as you, why don't you go with the palace to see first." Concubine Jing looked at Song Qingzhi and spoke.

"Okay" Song Qingzhi nodded and spoke, and followed Concubine Jing out of the palace's residence.

"Thank you Niangniang for helping Qingzhi just now." Song Qingzhi looked at Concubine Jing and spoke.

"It's nothing, it's just that it's not good to listen to these gossips, it's really painful for you." Concubine Jing looked at Song Qingzhi and said distressedly.

"They don't care, if my mother can be so considerate of me, I will be very content." Song Qingzhi smiled.

"Now that you have married into the Chengwang Mansion, how does the Chengwang treat you?" Concubine Jing asked with concern.

"It's not good, but it doesn't embarrass me. I'm afraid he also knows my thoughts, so he is also wary of me in the house. "Song Qingzhi didn't tell the truth all, she didn't understand it before, but now she knows that she must be a little wary of everything.

"It's good if you don't embarrass you, you must be careful when you are alone in the Chengwang Mansion." Concubine Jing continued.

"Thank you, mother." Song Qingzhi nodded.

"Okay, I'm going to the Queen Mother. Go around yourself, and if you don't want to hear the gossip, come to me, and come back at dinner. Concubine Jing smiled and spoke.

"Thank you Niangniang, Qingzhi just walked by herself. Now everyone is busy, and I guess no one is paying attention to me. Song Qingzhi opened her mouth and sent Concubine Jing away.
