Chapter 401: Framed
The fifth prince's expression was slightly restrained.
Sui'an Hou is also a dignified martial marquis, with an extraordinary status in the army, and the Cao family army trained by him is the strongest army in Dachu today, and he was ordered to defend the Beijing division is a sharp arrow in the hands of the emperor.
Even if Changning is a princess, Sui Anhou will not be afraid of being like this.
You must know that Sui Anhou is in a high position, and he is neither humble nor arrogant to a prince like Chu Chengyan, who is expected to become the crown prince, how can he grovel in the face of Changning, and now he is so frightened that he kneels?
Although it is in courtesy, it is not in love.
Could it be that Sui Anhou really did something worthy of Changning?
The Fifth Prince shook his head.
No, he shouldn't have thought so.
It was he who handed over the letter to others without identifying the other party's identity in time, which made Cao Yu fall into the trap and be led away by some blood-stained clothing.
Changning took a step forward and approached Sui'anhou, and the five princes strode forward.
"Changning, I don't blame the Cao family for this matter, I'm ashamed of you and sorry for you."
Changning was silent.
"Your Highness is angry, Yu'er and Qin Wujiang have had a close relationship since childhood, and it is the fault of the Cao family to hear that Wujiang is in trouble and rushed to rescue him, but he missed His Highness's major event." Cao Hou defended Cao Yu and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, the minister will order someone to find the rebel son back." ”
The fifth prince also stepped forward: "Changning, this matter is indeed not about Cao Yu, don't be angry with him." ”
Cao Hou nodded again and again.
Even if he didn't want Cao Yu to marry this princess on the cusp for peace, he didn't want to offend Changning too much.
Seeing Changning ascending to the palace this morning, coupled with the letter sent by Changning, he vaguely guessed Changning's method.
Cao Yu and Naruo courted Princess Changning at the same time, and the two competed, Cao Yu naturally couldn't compete with the prince Naruo hired by the country, but he couldn't stand His Majesty's promise to Princess Changning.
As for the princess's other ideas to stop Zheng Anhou's mouth, he is not sure, but he believes that with the wisdom of the eldest princess, there is always a way.
But now he missed the opportunity, Cao Hou was of course afraid that Changning would hate Cao Yu, so he defended Cao Yu.
Changning's appearance was unmoved.
"Was he really deceived, or did he not dare to face it and leave under the pretext?"
The five princes wanted to open their mouths to defend themselves, but swallowed the words back.
Changning seemed to laugh and mock, and looked down at Sui Anhou coldly: "Cao Yu is a virtuous gentleman, not a fool, Qin Wujiang's trick deceived him once, can he deceive him a second time?" ”
A light sweat was already on Sui'anhou's forehead: "Minister...... The minister did not understand what His Highness meant. ”
The five princes didn't understand either.
What is it once and twice, could it be that someone used Qin Wujiang to deceive Cao Yu once?
Changning's brows moved slightly: "If you don't understand, go ask him, ask him for me." ”
The racecourse was late that day, and Cao Yu obviously knew that Qin Wujiang's injury was fake, and it was true that he was led to leave.
Cao Yuren is filial and elegant, but he is by no means incompetent, on the contrary, he can lead 5,000 troops to chase and suppress Naruo, and his wisdom and means are definitely not inferior to Qin Wujiang, how can he fall twice in a pit.
Whether it is really anxious and unthinking, or an excuse to escape, I'm afraid only Cao Yu knows.
Sui Anhou raised his head in a panic: "Your Highness......"
Changning could see that his fear of three points was true and seven points false.
And the five princes acted as peacemakers, and asked Sui Anhou to get up.
Changning acquiesced, and the Marquis of Sui Ancai stood up with the support of the five princes, and Changning handed him a meaningful look.
"I heard that in the past few days, my aunt has stuffed two rooms for my eldest cousin, and the two girls Bei Jiu and Nan Jin have been serving the prince for many years and finally come out, my aunt and Hou Ye really have a heart." Changning sneered, and the elegant curvature of his mouth was maintained for too long, making Sui Anhou's back start to sweat.
Changning's eyes turned out to be in his mansion, and she even knew about opening Cao Yu's face for two rooms!
Tongfang is not a concubine, she doesn't need to have any etiquette and no reputation, it is a casual thing, but in this way, the eldest princess can do it with a word, but Changning knows it clearly.
Then how much does Changning know about the secret words of him and the eldest princess?
Sui Anhou's fear at the moment was no longer pretending, he really felt creepy.
Changning stopped at the point and turned to leave.
"Greetings to Your Highness."
Sui Anhou was sweating, hurriedly returned to the house, and hurriedly asked the steward to find out which was Changning's eyeliner in the house.
"Yes, the little ones will cook."
"Wait!" Sui Anhou's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "Just find out, don't act rashly." ”
The steward froze: "Master Hou? ”
The dignified Sui'an Hou Mansion actually wants to keep an eyeliner to show weakness, what is the identity of the other party?
Sui Anhou shouted with a dark face: "Do it." ”
"Yes!"
Weiyang Palace.
As soon as Changning entered the hall, someone dressed as a little palace maid came up: "How is it?" Why didn't I hear any movement? ”
"What do you want to hear?" Changning walked into the hall.
Mu Kite sensibly sent the maidservant away and closed the door for Changning.
"Of course, I listened to how Zheng Anhou's group of rare people begged for mercy and defended, didn't you hand over the evidence?" The blind thief dressed as a palace maid looked puzzled, didn't Changning want to send Zheng Anhou to prison in one fell swoop?
"Plans have changed."
The blind thief's eyes widened and he smiled.
"Has there been a change? Hey, we're the best strategists, and there are times when things change. The blind thief leaned on the chaise longue in a rather rogue posture, and Erlang's legs staggered one by one.
Changning didn't leave her, only opened the makeup box and took out a gilded jade phoenix hairpin.
"Go, hide in Fenghua Pavilion."
The blind thief's small mouth turned into a circle, and he grabbed Feng Hai with one hand and pointed with one finger: "You are really bad, you actually slandered others, but this thing is quite rare, Diancui's technique is so good that it is the work of Master Li." ”
"It's yours when it's done." Changning said casually, closing the makeup case.
"Deal!"
The blind thief clapped the board and rushed out of the window.
Fenghua Pavilion is familiar with her, because of Changning's relationship, she also touched the situation in the palace about the same, and soon sneaked into Zhongcui Palace unknowingly, and touched the back window of Fenghua Pavilion along the palace wall.
God help her, Jiang Guiren is asking Concubine Zheng Guifei to say goodbye, and there is no one in the pavilion.
The blind thief quickly put the phoenix hairpin in the makeup box, but he couldn't pull it out and refused to let go.
Thinking that she used to steal for a living, but today she wants to "give gifts" is very unfair.
"Gotta make up for that." The blind thief's eyes flickered, and he closed the makeup box and rummaged through the maple pavilion.
She is a good thief, and she can't hide any treasures in Fenghua Pavilion.
It's a pity that although Song Yijin is still favored, the things in the room are more than one grade worse than Changning's, and the blind thief pouted in disgust, and only took a sachet in the secret compartment under the bed.
"It smells pretty good." She grinned and stuffed the sachet into her arms and hurried back to her life.
When Changning saw her coming back, he immediately summoned Mu Kite: "Why haven't you brought back the Cuifeng hairpin that the palace sent to Shang Zun Si?" ”
The wooden kite is at a loss, when will it be?
"It's Mu Zhen who sent Dao Shang Ornament Division, Mu Zhen, you go and ask."
"Good...... Yes, Your Highness the Princess. "The blind thief went out, and when he came back, he said that it was the people from Fenghua Pavilion who took it away.
Changning hooked the corners of his lips: "Swing." ”
