Chapter 248 Rong Le and Pro
This time, Wan Xin did not retreat silently as usual. Instead, he took a step forward, approached Rongle and was close to her, and was about to get on. Rongle was startled and shrank back involuntarily, "What are you doing?"
"Princess, the young lady advises you to restrain your temperament. Nanwu is not as good as Beiliang. If the princess has to rely on her own temperament, then you will probably be much sadder in the future." The aura that Wan Xin had usually restrained was already bursting out at this time.
Rongle had never seen Wan Xin with such an aura. It was like a different person, which made people tremble involuntarily. "What do you mean? The Prince of Southern Wu is concerned about me. Are you jealous of me? Or do you... do you have any other thoughts about the Prince of Southern Wu?"
Wan Xin sneered, "Princess, you are still so stupid. The folk girl has seen the princess' future days in advance. Since the princess thinks the folk girl is too talkative, the folk girl will not say more, and hope everything goes well for the princess."
After saying that, Wan Xin stood up and took a last look at Rongle, because she knew that this would be the last time she saw Rongle. She would never see this woman in this life, and she might not even know whether she was alive.
Rong Le was already stupid. She was extremely frightened about her future because she actually saw mercy in Wanxin's eyes. This was a look at a person in a desperate situation. Rong Le just felt that she was unwilling to marry and was blinded by this incident. But what happened to Wanxin's eyes?
Three days later, Emperor Beiliang issued an order to marry Rongle and marry Nanwu and set off on his way. Although Emperor Beiliang rewarded a large sum of gold, silver and jewelry as Rongle's dowry, there was no joy in the palace. Especially Concubine Cao, she wished she could cry. She didn't know why the harem suddenly became like this. Why was she, who once called the wind and rain, so why was she so isolated and helpless now? Her most important daughter left her, and her personal maid was beaten up to bed? Why? Emperor Beiliang is not as fond of her as before. What is the reason?
Seven days later, the Prince of Southern Wu asked to bid farewell to Emperor Beiliang and returned to Nanwu with Rongle. When Rongle left the palace, he hugged Concubine Cao and cried bitterly. No matter how the Prince of Southern Wu persuaded him, they could not stop their tears. Prince of Southern Wu looked at the mother and daughter who were hugging each other helplessly. The scene in front of him was not like a marriage gift, but a separation from life and death. The Prince of Southern Wu gradually lost his smile, and Emperor of Northern Liang also lost his original patience, and forced the concubine Cao to forcefully pull him away. This way, the bride-sending team could continue to move forward.
Rong Le poked his head out of the carriage, stretched his arms backwards, and shouted to stay. When Prince of Nanwu saw this, Rong Le no longer had his previous love, and even felt a little bored. But everything was gone and there was no room for recovery.
"Miss, I heard that Prince Nanwu already has many beautiful concubines at his family. Do you think Princess Rongle will have a good life after marrying her?" Jinli asked softly while rubbing Wanxin's shoulders.
Wan Xin, whose eyes were slightly closed, did not open her eyes, but a trace of light flashed instantly, and she smiled, "Jinli knows a lot. I don't know that there are beautiful concubines in the family of Prince Nanwu."
Jinli did not feel that he had said the wrong thing and continued, "This is also what other palace maids talk about. I don't know if it is really there, but..."
"Jinli, although you are by my side now, you are always the Queen's person. If you have any bias in your body, you will lose the Queen's face. Do you know? The Queen doesn't like the gossip around you the most. I think you should know this more clearly than me. Why can't you remember it now?" Wan Xin sighed faintly and said with regret.
Jinli had never heard Wan Xin say such harsh words. She was so scared that she was instantly scared and knelt down with a thud, "Mr. Please spare my life, Jinli knew she was wrong."
Wan Xin did not help Jinli up this time, and said meaningfully, "Jinli, I am not a person in this palace, I am just living here temporarily. But you are the palace maid in this palace. Do you know the difference between you and me?"
"Jinli knows." Jinli lowered her head. She didn't understand why Wan Xin was so angry today?
"Okay, since you know, get up quickly. If the Empress knows that I punish you, you may feel distressed." Wan Xin asked Jinli to stand up expressionlessly. She must warn Jinli well and know what she does every day. If someone wants to be the Empress, don't even think about her. If some of her remarks spread, then she must be the one who is being discussed and criticized. Now her identity in the palace is quite embarrassing, but she is just a hiding place and cannot tolerate anyone taking off her hind legs. "Follow me to the Empress."
Wanxin knew that she didn't have that much time. If she wanted to enter the treasure house, she must help the Queen to relieve her great troubles. However, the Queen still helped Rongle. Although the Queen was grateful for this matter, the effect was not obvious. She must do something herself. Let the Queen know that she owed her a big favor.
"Empress, Wan Xin is here to pay your respects."
"It turned out to be Wanxin. Please get up quickly. I am still talking to Lingxi today. When will you come? Look at you just finished speaking. How coincidental is this." The Empress seemed to be in a good mood and looked at Wanxin with a smile.
Wan Xin took a deep breath and slowly knelt down.
"Wanxin, what are you doing? Get up quickly." The queen didn't know what Wanxin wanted, so she quickly asked Lingxi to pull her up.
Wan Xin shook her head, "Please listen to Wan Xin's words, Wan Xin will naturally get up."
The Queen nodded helplessly and asked Lingxi to retreat, "What do you have to say on your knees?"
"Empress, the young lady knows what your big trouble is, and the young lady is willing to serve you." Wan Xin leaned over and kowtowed deeply, and stopped getting up.
The queen was slightly stunned and smiled instantly, "Do you know what I want to do? Then tell me?"
Wan Xin raised her face and looked at the Queen and said word by word, "Concubine Zhang."
When the queen heard Wan Xin's words, she did not show any surprise. Instead, she asked Lingxi and Jinli to retreat, leaving only Wanxin and her.
"Concubine Zhang? You said that the big trouble in this palace is Concubine Zhang?"
"Yes, if you don't know the Empress, you will definitely think that the empress's big trouble is Concubine Cao. In the eyes of the common people, although Concubine Cao is spoiled and willful and domineering, she has no offspring and will not pose any threat to the inheritance and unification. And Concubine Zhang is not, she has a second prince." Wan Xin knew that the Empress was an extremely smart person. When dealing with smart people, don't pretend to be smarter than her. It's better to tell him directly that she knows her very well and knows what she is thinking.
"Wanxin, do you know that you have committed a serious crime if you just now?" The queen looked at Wanxin with fun. She thought the woman in front of her was really interesting.
"Wanxin knows that Wanxin is ready to be punished before she says these words."
"The prince and the fourth prince in this palace are not where I live. Why do you just say the second prince? Wanxin, there is no shortage of smart people in this palace. Everyone who can live here is extremely smart. But... the fastest death is often these self-righteous people. On the contrary, all the stupid people survived." The Queen is no longer the queen who is dedicated to Buddha, and has completely restored her appearance to the lord of the harem. She has experienced so many storms, plots, and conspiracies. Only she herself knows.
"Wan Xin believes that it is not that stupid people survived, but that those who are smart enough and can pretend to be stupid can survive."
"It's not wrong to say this. Since you know, you still have to say these words?" The queen looked at Wan Xin with some meaning. She already felt that this woman was not simple, even a little more complicated than she thought.
"Because Wanxin wants to serve the queen, I hope the queen will give Wanxin a chance."
"Let me tell me, why do I give you this chance?" The queen held her chin with one hand and looked at Wan Xin playfully. She always liked to deal with interesting people, and the people in this palace were too boring.
"There are two reasons. First, although the second prince's power has been weakened, it cannot be underestimated. I think the Empress must not want the Prince to lose the position of Prince. What the Second Prince did in private must be clearer than me. Second, it is the Emperor's poisoning that day. Who does the Empress think it was poisoning?"
"You said it was the second prince's attack? It's impossible!" The queen retorted instantly. What's going on with the second prince? He had no chance to get in touch with His Majesty's food.
Wan Xin shook his head, "The Min Nu has never said that it is the second prince. The Min Nu even believes that this matter is not the second prince's original intention, but some people are willing to take risks for the second prince. I believe that the Queen has the answer in her heart now."
The Empress fell into a soft collapse, "It's impossible, it's Concubine Zhang Shu, she has never been concerned about the world."
"Yes, Concubine Zhang can ignore the world, but it is related to her own son. What a mother can do for her son, the empress should know. I think as long as she sacrifices her life for her son, most of the mothers in the world will do it unshirkable." Wan Xin said slowly, observing the queen's expression, she knew that the queen had believed it and believed it deeply, because she had long doubts, but she was suffering from no evidence.
"What evidence do you have? You can't afford to slander the concubines of the dynasty."
"Wan Xin can speak out, so he is naturally prepared. On that day, the Imperial Doctor Qin should have said that His Majesty was poisoned by Ma Qianzi, and those who poisoned him can grasp the amount of poisoning at any time. Before entering the palace, Concubine Zhang learned pharmacology and pathology for a long time. I think even now, Concubine Shu should have the habit of reading medical books."
"You are right. The medical skills in the library have been read by Concubine Shu. But why did he do this? Why? Your Majesty is also her husband, the lord of a country, and her son is not the prince. Even if His Majesty is poisoned to death, what are the benefits for her?" The Empress raised her own question.
Wan Xin shook his head gently, "Although Your Majesty is the husband of the Imperial Concubine, Your Majesty is also the husband of the Imperial Concubine Cao."
"What do you say is this? It is natural for His Majesty to have three palaces and six courtyards, what's wrong?"
Wanxin knew that the Empress could not understand the idea that she wanted to be alone. Although Zhang Shufei understood, she should not have such extravagant hopes in the imperial family. "Wanxin means that Your Majesty is the husband of the Empresses, and the second prince's mother only has one mother. Although the second prince is not the crown prince now, the foundation of the crown prince is not solid now. If the crown prince suddenly ascends the throne, then the second prince can definitely clear the king. According to the power of the second prince at that time, can the empress successfully clear the king? What do you think?"
"What did you say? He wants to rebel?"
"Empress, the word rebellion is used when there is no success. If the prince is successfully overthrown and he ascended to the position, who else would say that he was rebelling?" Wan Xin's words are vibrant and powerful. All her remarks today were thoughtful. She believed that as long as she did it, it would be easy to enter the treasure pavilion.
"I didn't expect you to think so long, but what do you want to do now? Do you have any evidence?"
"Although I have no evidence now, I can ask Concubine Shu to admit this matter and find the poisoned person for Your Majesty. I think Your Majesty will be very happy and will look at the prince even more differently, and to the second prince..." Wan Xin did not say the following words. When talking to smart people, he often speaks without saying anything as completely.
The Empress was in long-term thinking at this time. Wan Xin knew that she was weighing the pros and cons and analyzing the purpose of her words. As expected, the Queen asked, "Wan Xin, I don't think you have any reason to help me for nothing. What do you want? You also know that if you say you have nothing to ask for, I will not accept it with peace of mind. What is your purpose?"
Wan Xin kowtowed respectfully, "Empress, the people's daughter are brave. If this matter is done for the Queen, the people's daughter will have a request."
"explain."
"The young girl wants to enter the treasure pavilion."
"What?" The Empress did not expect that Wan Xin's purpose was the Treasure Pavilion? "What are you going to go to the Treasure Pavilion?"
"Ruomin said he was going to see it, would the Empress believe it?"
The queen looked at Wanxin with deep meaning, staring at her eyes until a long time later, "I believe it."
"Well, can you agree to me?" Wan Xin was not sure when he said this, because Zhenbao Pavilion was not another place, and even the prince was not qualified to enter, would she go in?
"Okay... I promise you that as long as you ask Concubine Zhang Shu to admit that the person who poisoned that day was her. This palace will plead for you in front of the emperor and let you enter the Treasure Pavilion."
Wan Xinying smiled and said, "Thank you, the Queen, the people will definitely not disappoint the Queen."
