"Your Highness, did you see that? Wasn't Princess Chunran feeding the fish in the pavilion?”Qin Mufeng stood on the white jade stone bridge in the middle of the imperial garden and looked in the direction of the lightning bolt.
In the pavilion built by the lake, a woman was sprinkling the fish food in her hand into the Bishui Lake, attracting the koi in the lake to gather under the pavilion. They jumped from time to time, splashing countless water droplets, looking especially crystal clear under the sunlight.
The woman was wearing a long purple dress with rich peonies embroidered on the pleats. A water-green silk ribbon was tied around her waist. She wore a white gauze dress on her shoulders. Her three thousand black hair was tied into a complicated flying bun. Coupled with a pendant moon hairpin, jade, blood pearls and other expensive accessories, it immediately showed her extraordinary status. If that wasn't Princess Chunran who was used to being spoiled by King Jing, who else could it be?
Princess Chunran turned around when she realized that someone was walking behind her. When he saw that it was Qin Mufeng, he threw away the fish food in his hand and bowed perfunctorily."Greetings, Imperial Uncle."
Although he did not like Chunran, Qin Mufeng was a little surprised to see Chunran who had already left Yueli Kingdom to go through a marriage alliance.""Get up. Chunran, didn't you go to the Daliu Kingdom for a marriage alliance?”
Chun Ran secretly pursed her lips and said casually,"Imperial Uncle, are you very free recently? Why are you always strolling around the palace?”Because everyone knew that the emperor was hostile towards Qin Mufeng, he didn't take this imperial uncle seriously at all.
Qin Mufeng ignored her rudeness and said sternly,""Chunran, the marriage between the two countries is a major event related to the country. Do you know that you're messing around?”
A few days ago, the emperor was furious because Chun Ran had found someone to replace him in the marriage alliance with the Daliu Kingdom. He even implicated his aunt Dou Yanru and was reprimanded by the emperor. Chun Ran didn't dare to tell the emperor that she had found Hao Yue Yi to help her with the marriage. She only said that she had found a palace maid. In recent days, King Jing had also been sighing in the manor because of this matter. How could this precious daughter of more than ten years do such a ridiculous thing? This was cheating the emperor. At least the emperor cared about the empress's identity, otherwise…
Thinking about how his aunt had been reprimanded by the emperor for causing trouble, he had invited Dou Yanru to go to the imperial garden to relax. However, he did not expect to meet Qin Mufeng, who had always been disliked by others. Therefore, he was no longer in a good mood. The fun of feeding the fish was also boring.
"Imperial Uncle, can you not always talk about the country? Chunran was just a woman. She couldn't bear the responsibility of the country.”After saying that, she turned around and walked away impatiently.
"Hey, wangye, look at her attitude…”Rushing Thunder said.
"Forget it, her personality is like this. I'm used to it." Qin Mufeng said indifferently.”
Qin Mufeng fell into deep thought as he stared at the departing figure. During the few days when he was placed under house arrest by the Emperor, the Daliu Kingdom and the Yueli Kingdom had reached an agreement on a marriage alliance. As even the eldest princess of the Yueli Kingdom's royal family was not yet ten years old, the marriage alliance partner was King Jing's daughter, the Empress 'niece, Princess Chunran. He hadn't entered the palace for quite a few days. He had thought that Chunran had gone to marry him, but he was really surprised to see her just now. Since she didn't go through with the marriage alliance, then who was the person who replaced her…And the incident at Yiren Palace happened so close…Was it a coincidence or was it man-made?
When Lan Zichu told him that Yiyi might not be dead, Qin Mufeng, who was despondent, suddenly had hope again. When he saw Yiren Palace burned to ashes and the charred bodies were carried out one by one, he was in despair…He was so worried that Qin Mufeng did not consider whether Yiyi was still alive. Other than the two eunuchs who were on duty at the door, no one else was alive at Yiren Palace…
Qin Mufeng's thoughts were a little chaotic. There were some things that he could not figure out. He needed some time to calm down. However, the most important thing now was to find the two eunuchs who had been rescued at that time. He might be able to get some clues from them.
Dou Yanru, who was wearing a golden dress embroidered with flowers and butterflies, with a red gem on the collar, and a red brocade embroidered with auspicious clouds on her slender waist, was pacing back and forth in the palace uneasily. She was wearing a golden silk dress with a phoenix pattern embroidered on the hem.
"Empress, what's wrong?" The head palace maid Qing He, who was standing at the side, looked at the uneasy Empress with some confusion.
Dou Yanru replied faintly,"Just now, BenGong received news that that slut was assassinated on the way to the marriage alliance and her whereabouts are still unknown." The emperor already knew that Chunran was looking for someone to marry in her place, but he didn't dare to tell the emperor that it was that slut. BenGong is worried that if the two countries cause a dispute because of the marriage alliance, the emperor will blame it and that will be serious…”
"Your Majesty, think about it. It has been a month since Haoyue Yi went to the Daliu Kingdom for the marriage alliance. We haven't received any news from the Daliu Kingdom in such a long time, so you don't have to worry. If the Daliu Kingdom was dissatisfied, they should have shown it long ago. You see, it's calm now, Empress, you worry too much.”Qing He slowly analyzed.
When Dou Yanru heard Qing He's words, her uneasy expression eased a little.""Yes, you're right. Perhaps things are not as serious as BenGong thinks.”
Feeling more at ease, she turned around and sat back on the soft couch." Qing He, order the imperial kitchen to prepare bird's nest for BenGong. I want the best blood bird's nest. BenGong these days because of this matter really put in a lot of effort, I need to nourish myself well, otherwise my face will have a few more wrinkles.”Dou Yanru instructed Qing He.
"Yes, this servant will instruct the imperial kitchen to prepare bird's nest for niangniang.”Qing He bowed and walked out.
