Chapter 623: You Say It's Late
Wang Guifei frowned and looked at Zhao Chen, intuition that he was here to have something to do with Han Youning.
His son, said to be the prince, should have the world in his heart and cut off the love thread. But what he did from beginning to end was all for the woman who was destined not to belong to him.
She sighed secretly, she didn't know the pain of not being able to ask for it.
Even if that person hurt her again, she only remembered the heartbeat when she first saw her, and his goodness. Even if you are scarred, you want that person to be safe.
Back in Yikun Palace, Wang Guifei waved away the palace people and sat on the couch to fiddle with her incense.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhao Chen sat opposite her, "What is the purpose of the concubine's going to Cining Palace to wait for the queen in the past two days?"
Wang Guifei said casually, "The prince thinks too much. I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, but I just followed the rules to ask for peace."
"When did the mother take those rules into account?" Zhao Chen asked bluntly, "What does the concubine want to say to the queen?"
In his previous life, Chen Man was seriously ill and jumped off the building by himself, obviously hearing the truth from his mother. The mother concubine wants to borrow Chen Man to take revenge on her father.
In this life, the prince of Dingguo is not dead, and what the mother concubine did must be different from the previous life.
But it's really hard to say what she'll do.
Wang Guifei said lightly, "Your father and the emperor follow inch by inch, what can this palace say."
Zhao Chen looked at her.
Her mother was smarter than he thought, and she must have a purpose in meeting the queen.
She is infatuated with Dingguo Gong, and her purpose is probably only to ensure the fairness and safety of Dingguo.
If Dingguo Gong wants to be safe, he can't know who the queen is, and the queen can't remember who Dingguo Gong is.
So......
Zhao Chen asked, "You want to tell the queen that the Duke of Dingguo is still alive. Let her not act rashly?"
Wang Guifei looked up suddenly, "Do you know who the queen is?"
"Yes."
Wang Guifei looked at Zhao Chen in shock.
He has the good looks of the Zhao family, his eyes are deep and stern, and he is handsome, but he has a depressed atmosphere. It's really like his father.
His mind, as well as the depth of his scheming, is also very similar to his father. She looked at him like she was looking at Emperor Qingming.
At this time, she understood Zhao Chen's recent abnormal behavior. He went to wait in front of Kunning Palace every day, being that filial son, where is his style.
Even if he was suspicious of his father before, he refused to grovel and bend down to please his father, but now for the sake of Han Youning, he has done this.
Wang Guifei looked away, a little unbearable to look at his appearance. It's as if I saw myself in him.
"It's good that you know, so you should also understand why this palace won't let you marry Han Youning. If she marries you, not only will she die, but you may not live either."
"Erchen understands." Zhao Chen said, "It's just that the mother concubine has ever thought that his father is staring at the queen closely, if he finds out the clues, not only will the Dingguo Guild be in danger, but you yourself will have no way to live." The mother must not do that kind of thing."
Wang Guifei looked at him, "You think too much, although this day is not very interesting, it is better to live than to die. This palace will not do such a thing as putting itself to death."
Zhao Chen sighed.
But you did it in your previous life. And unusually resolute, desperate.
"Mother, the queen's affairs are taken care of by her son, and she will not let Dingguo have anything to do. Don't meddle."
Wang Guifei smiled slightly, "It's a pity that you said it was too late, and what this palace wanted to do has already been done."
Zhao Chen's face turned pale, "The mother concubine and the queen said?"
He immediately became nervous in his heart, and he was already thinking about how to send a message to Zhao Chengyuan, how to help him go straight to the palace, and didn't care about anything.
Wang Guifei played with the gold incense ball on the placket and said leisurely, "The incense pills in this are sent to the palace by Princess Jin when she went to Ling'an Temple that day, and she said that her father gave her to use to repel snakes and insects. Do you know who made the recipe for this pill?"
Zhao Chen didn't know that there was such a relationship between them that day, but he guessed it when his mother asked him,
"Duchess of Dingguo."
"Yes, she's a master of making incense. How could she not recognize the incense pills she made herself?"
Wang Guifei chuckled, "If she recognizes this incense pill, it means that she remembers everything. Moreover, she also knew that the owner of the incense pill was still alive."
Zhao Chen's face tensed and asked, "Then can she recognize it?"
Wang Guifei recalled Chen Man's stunned look and smiled, "I recognize it." She is quite smart, and she can hide her emotions in front of the emperor, which is beyond the expectations of this palace."
She wasn't sure, she just had the idea of trying it out, but she didn't expect that Chen Man had really recovered her memory.
I always thought that this woman was just a good life, but in fact she was very stupid, if it weren't for the men she met who spoiled her wholeheartedly, she would have died a long time ago. Now it seems that she is not hopelessly stupid.
I hope she can figure it out, as long as she doesn't remember Dingguogong, Dingguogong can live. Z.br>
Although this is not a long-term solution, let's take it one step at a time.
Zhao Chen is not as relaxed as Wang Guifei.
Since Chen Man had tried his best to get out of Kunning Palace, he must have already made a decision.
He had seen Chen Man's determination, and he was much better than his mother's concubine. If she still uses death to take revenge on Emperor Qingming, then Youning's mother will be gone.
And Emperor Qingming will not let his rival who he has hated all his life live well, and he may come to encircle and suppress the Dingguo Mansion and the Jin Mansion at any cost.
Once Emperor Qingming strikes first, Zhao Chengyuan may not be able to win as much as in his previous life.
Although Zhao Chengyuan has private soldiers, he does not have any advantage compared to the 100,000 soldiers and horses inside and outside the imperial city. Zhao Chengyuan wants to lay out, what is needed is time. Even if he knew the location of Emperor Qingming's private soldiers, it would take time to plan.
Zhao Chen frowned.
He couldn't think of what Chen Man was going to do, and he couldn't stop her unconsciously.
Wang Guifei issued an eviction order.
Zhao Chen left Yikun Palace with a heavy heart.
On the way back to the imperial study, he met Zhao Chengyuan.
The peerless elegance of the white clothes, in the spring sunshine, is scorching and dazzling, which is enviable.
Zhao Chen gave a salute, "The Seventh Emperor Uncle entered the palace at this time, but he came to greet the Imperial Grandmother?"
Zhao Chengyuan nodded, "When I arrived at Cining Palace, I found that the queen was also there, so the king walked outside."
Zhao Chen said, "The queen mother's awakening depends on the three pills of the emperor's uncle, and now the queen mother and her father have a deep relationship, and the father has to thank you well."
Zhao Chengyuan could hear Zhao Chen's words, "Oh?"
Zhao Chen smiled meaningfully, "Uncle Seven Emperor doesn't know yet, the Queen Mother waits for her father at the gate of Kunning Palace every day to go to court."
Zhao Chengyuan came for this matter.
Chen Man's changes before and after are too big, and the onlookers are clear, and Zhao Chengyuan always feels that it is not so simple.
Now Zhao Chen deliberately took out this matter and said it, obviously telling him that the queen had recovered her memory and was doing something premeditated.
Zhao Chengyuan nodded, "It's a good thing. The prince is busy."
