172: Prince's Cousin

, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!

Miss Zhang dared to stay in the car, so she quickly got out of the car and greeted King Rong, "My slave, I pay my respects to the prince."

Looking at the dress of this palace maid, King Rong knew that she was just an ordinary female envoy in the palace. He couldn't help but frown and asked: "Are you the one who went to take the Lord Yong'an into the palace?"

Ms. Zhang lowered her head and replied, "Yes."

"There is only one way to Yangde Palace from the Nine Immortals Gate. Where is this car going to take the Lord of Yong'an County?" King Rong is not stupid. He knows that there is something fishy in this matter. It is not easy to see Su Xinyi and him. Please help, he needs to behave.

Look, he is no worse than the prince that Su Xinyi calls heavenly. Look, where is your highness the prince now?

Oh, he is a prince, running errands with his father.

It's really pitiful. The hero saves the beauty. I hope he will dream faster!

How could Ms. Zhang dare to tell the truth? She knelt down with a bang and said, "Your Highness, spare your life. Your Highness, spare your life. I know I was wrong. I don't dare to do it anymore."

Su Xinyi sat in the carriage and looked at Ms. Zhang who was kowtowing like a fool, with no smile in her eyes. This was when she met King Rong. I am afraid that Ms. Zhang would not have given up so quickly if it was someone else.

She has a very hard heart and doesn't feel sorry for her at all.

King Rong looked at Ms. Zhang with disgust and at the followers beside him, "Drag the person down and interrogate him carefully. Be sure to find out what happened."

Upon hearing this, Ms. Zhang's eyes darkened, and she immediately turned around and kowtowed to the Yong'an County Master, "County Master, please spare your life, County Master, please have mercy on me, please show me your noble hand. I really didn't mean this."

King Rong's face turned completely dark at this moment, he kicked the person to the ground, and said angrily: "Everyone is blind, why don't you gag them and drag them down!"

At this time, King Rong's followers did not dare to delay anymore, and immediately stepped forward, covered the man's mouth and dragged him away.

The coachman was so frightened that he trembled all over, "Your Highness, please forgive me, I really don't know anything. It was Ms. Zhang who gave me two taels of silver and asked me to drive the carriage to Shaoyang Courtyard. I really don't know anything." "

Shaoyangyuan?

Su Xinyi and King Rong both changed their faces!

Where is Shaoyangyuan?

Shaoyangyuan is the place where the prince temporarily stays in the harem when he is accompanying the emperor!

If Su Xinyi went to Shaoyangyuan instead of Yangde Palace as soon as she entered the palace, what would happen to her reputation if word spread?

Su Xinyi thought a lot, but she didn't expect that the queen would kill her when she came up!

King Rong didn't know that it was his mother who had done this, but he felt that the person behind the scenes was really vicious. He looked at Su Xinyi and asked casually: "Hey, Su Xinyi, who did you say you offended? This is going to kill you." ”

Su Xinyi thought to herself, she is really not an outsider, she is your biological mother!

But she couldn't say this, she had to let King Rong find out by himself.

Acting was a skill that Su Xinyi was forced to learn in her previous life, and she had never used it in this life, but now she had to use it again to dig holes for the queen.

"What Your Highness is saying is that I have no old friends and no enemies in the palace. I really never thought that anyone would take such pains to harm me." Su Xinyi sighed softly.

King Rong didn't believe Su Xinyi's words at all, and looked at her suspiciously, "With your ability to offend people...hey, there is one, Concubine Li."

Su Xinyi:......

King Rong slapped his thigh suddenly, looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Does Li Ji's exile have something to do with you? Maybe Concubine Li has always held a grudge against you. After a long time, you arrived at her territory, so I can't give you anything." Cruel, that must be it.”

Su Xinyi fell silent, which seemed to make sense.

But although she had not had much dealings with Concubine Li in her previous life, Concubine Li had always kept a low profile and had a good reputation in front of His Majesty. How could such a person who cherishes feathers do such a thing.

Especially since everyone knew that Li Ji's matter had something to do with Su Xinyi, I was afraid that it would be too late for Concubine Li to avoid suspicion. Even if she wanted to take revenge on her, she would never take action now.

Su Xinyi looked at King Rong and once again doubted that King Rong, who was good at planning in his previous life, was really the fool in front of him?

"Wei Chen paid homage to His Highness King Rong and met the Lord of Yong'an County."

"Yang Jin? Why are you here?" Rong Wangmeng was startled when he saw Yang Jin running out of the small door on one side.

Yang Jin wiped his sweat. He hurried over as soon as he got the news. Unexpectedly, he was still a step too late. He immediately said: "Your Highness heard from the palace that something happened to the driver of Yong'an County Lord. Your Highness is on duty with the emperor." I really had no time to separate myself, so I asked my subordinates to come over and take care of it, but I didn’t expect to meet His Highness Prince Rong.”

King Rong sneered, "Brother, the news is really fast."

Yang Jin's heart trembled, and he immediately said: "Your Highness, you have forgotten, further ahead from here is the Shaoyang Courtyard, and the people around Your Highness are waiting here."

Yang Jin couldn't let King Rong put a hat on His Highness that would be heard all over the harem. He immediately opened his mouth to explain, and it was reasonable and unable to find any fault.

King Rong made a sound, ignored Yang Jin, and turned to look at Su Xinyi, "I will send you to Yangde Palace first, and I will tell you after I find out what happened here."

Before Su Xinyi opened his mouth, he heard Yang Jin say: "Your Highness, His Majesty asked you about it before."

King Rong paused and hesitated.

When Su Xinyi saw it, he said: "His Royal Highness King Rong, His Majesty's summons is important. As long as Mr. Yang is here, you don't have to worry about me not being able to get to Yangde Palace. You can go about your business. Thank you for this matter, Your Highness."

Prince Rong thought that he couldn't let the prince be favored by his father, so he said, "Okay, if there is anything, let someone pass the message to me. This driver..."

He was about to say that he would take the person away, but Yang Jin interrupted him, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely handle the matter."

You can't take the person away, but you still have to speak nicely.

Prince Rong didn't think too much. When Yang Jin said this, he nodded and looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Then I'll go first."

Su Xinyi smiled and nodded, watching Prince Rong stride away, and turned to look at Yang Jin.

Yang Jin's smile had disappeared. With a wave of his hand, the guards behind him immediately stepped forward to pick up the driver and left. After taking him away, Yang Jin smiled again and looked at Princess Yong'an. "Princess, His Highness knows that you are in the palace today, but there are too many people and eyes to see you. He won't come here to cause trouble for the Princess."

Su Xinyi's eyebrows jumped. Yang Jin had said before that His Highness the Crown Prince was playing before the emperor. Was it inconvenient for him to show up now?

Yang Jin had lied to Prince Rong before so that he could send him away?

Tsk, Yang Jin is too cunning.

"It's just a small matter, how can I trouble His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come." Su Xinyi said immediately, "I will trouble Lord Yang for this matter as well."

Yang Jin immediately said: "Don't worry, County Lady, I will definitely know everything about this matter."

Su Xinyi certainly couldn't say that she suspected it was the Queen, which was groundless. This was really a disaster. She smiled and thanked him, and said: "It's getting late, I should go to Yangde Palace."

Yang Jin said: "I asked someone to drive the County Lady there. Outsiders dare not trespass in the important place of the inner court. Please forgive me, County Lady, I can't drive the County Lady there in person."

Su Xinyi naturally knew how serious it was, and smiled and said: "Lord Yang, don't mind, this has already caused you trouble."

Yang Jin hurriedly said he didn't dare, stretched out his hand to call a eunuch, and asked him to drive Su Xinyi to Yangde Palace.

Su Xinyi waved goodbye to Yang Jin, and then sat back in the car and lowered the curtain.

The carriage changed direction and went towards Yangde Palace.

Yang Jin watched the back of the carriage leave at the corner of the palace road, and then turned to go to Shaoyang Courtyard.

When he entered Shaoyang Courtyard, he saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sitting under a tree playing chess with two pieces. He walked over lightly and bent down to reply: "Your Highness, I have sent the Sixth Miss away."

Yan Junchu dropped the chess piece in his hand, just surrounding the white piece. He said without raising his head: "Interrogate the person clearly, and then reveal the matter to the emperor. Don't do anything extra."

"Yes." Yang Jin said immediately, "But, if Your Highness does this, I'm afraid that His Majesty may not suspect that person."

"Just do it." Yan Junchu stretched out his hand to mess up the chessboard. A drop of water wears away a stone. Some things can't be rushed, and they have to be done slowly.

"Yes, I'll go immediately." Yang Jin turned around and left, interrogating the person first and getting a confession.

This confession must not directly implicate that person, but as long as you dig deeper, there is always a way. Even if the things cannot appear in front of the emperor for the time being, they will be used sooner or later.

After Yang Jin left, Yan Junchu stood under the tree with his hands behind his back, looking up through the treetops. Even if the leaves were like a canopy, there would eventually be sunlight falling through the treetops.

***

On the other side, Su Xinyi arrived at Yangde Palace. She had never been to Yangde Palace in her previous life, but she knew that Yangde Palace was the place where the harem reviewed the beauties. Now it was in accordance with etiquette to select the crown princess for the crown prince here.

Yangde Palace was much larger than she expected. Walking through the main gate, there were five main halls, east and west side halls, and front and back halls. At this time, the halls had already been cleaned up, and the palace servants were constantly coming and going.

As soon as Su Xinyi arrived, a palace servant came forward to greet her. The servants behind her moved her gifts out of the car. The leading maid bowed to her and saluted, "I, the servant Ran Su, greet the Princess of Yong'an. Please follow me."

"Thank you." Su Xinyi nodded slightly and smiled at Ran Su.

Ran Su smiled and said, "County Lady, the accommodation arranged for you is the West Hall. Because there are many girls from different families staying here, you have to live with others. This is the case for everyone who lives in Yangde Palace. Please forgive me, County Lady."

"No problem." Su Xinyi was not picky about where to live. What surprised her was that she was arranged to live in the West Hall. There are five rooms in the main hall, and the main hall occupies three rooms. This should be the place where everyone usually meets and no one can live here. There is also a room on the east and west sides of the main hall, that is, the East Hall and the West Hall.

Generally speaking, those who can live here are those with outstanding family background and reputation among the ladies. The east is noble and the west is inferior. It is unknown who lives in the East Hall.

Although there is only one room in the West Hall, it is very spacious and divided into inner and outer rooms. The outer room is a small tea room, and the inner room has three beds. It seems that three people live here. There is also a dark room at the back, which is a place for everyone to put boxes and cages.

Ran Su had someone bring Su Xinyi's box into the dark room, and then said to Su Xinyi: "County Lady, I will serve you during your stay in the palace. Just tell me if you have anything to do."

Su Xinyi had a feeling when Ran Su brought her in before, so she nodded, "I will trouble you more in the future."

Ran Su hurriedly said she didn't dare, and smiled and said: "It's busy and chaotic outside, and the other girls in the East and West Palaces haven't arrived yet. Why don't you take a rest first? There will be a dinner in the evening, so you should get enough rest first."

Su Xinyi nodded slightly, "Okay, go and do your thing." As she spoke, Su Xinyi stuffed a purse into Ran Su's hand, "Take it and buy some tea."

Ran Su was stunned, and then smiled, "Thank you, County Lady, for your reward."

Su Xinyi watched Ran Su retreat, glanced at it, and then chose the bed in the west corner and sat down. There were soft curtains between the beds. There was a table on one side of the bed with a plum vase on it, and a plum vase in it. A few winter jasmine flowers brought a lively atmosphere to this dull palace.

She was just thinking about taking a nap when she heard a familiar voice coming in from outside, "Do I live here?"

"Yes, Miss Wang."

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, Wang Yingyao?

In an instant, Wang Yingyao had already walked in, followed by a pretty female envoy. As soon as she entered the palace, she immediately saw Su Xinyi and rushed over happily, "I just thought there should be you, what are we doing here?" It’s really great to live together.”

Su Xinyi stood up, supported Wang Yingyao, and said with a smile: "It is indeed a coincidence. I just heard your voice and thought I heard it wrong."

Wang Yingyao was very excited. It was better to see someone she knew than someone she didn't know very well. She directly chose the bed in the middle next to Su Xinyi, and asked the female envoy to place her box and cage. After sending the person out, she Looking at Su Xinyi, he said, "I'm really nervous. I was holding my breath all the way. It would be nice to see you."

Su Xinyi laughed when he heard this, "You used to follow Mrs. Wang into the palace, why are you still so afraid?"

"How is that the same? My mother was here before, but now I'm alone." Wang Yingyao sighed, "But it's better now. I'm not afraid now that you're here."

Su Xinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Before she could speak, Wang Yingyao said again: "I heard that Ruo Lan is also among the candidates. I don't know where she lives. It would be great if she comes with us."

Coincidences can't happen all the time, Su Xinyi thinks it's unlikely. Sure enough, a strange woman came in after a while. She glanced at the two of them and ignored Su Xinyi when she saw them. Instead, she saw Wang Yingyao saying hello.

"Miss Wang."

"Miss Pei." Wang Yingyao smiled politely at the other party.

The other party ignored Su Xinyi, and Su Xinyi naturally did not take the initiative to talk to her. He just sat on his couch and placed his belongings.

She and Wang Yingyao both took matters into their own hands, but it was Miss Pei who directed the female envoys around, acting as if it were natural and somewhat domineering.

Su Xinyi really didn't know the other party. He had never met her in his previous life. His surname was Pei...the Pei family...

Su Xinyi frowned slightly. The first queen's maiden name was Pei. It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?

If it is really the Pei family, is the person in front of me Pei Nianwei, the eldest daughter of the Pei family?

Although she had never met Pei Nianwei in her previous life, she had heard that he had a soft spot for her prince cousin.

Su Xinyi clicked her tongue in her heart. Cousins, cousins, etc., I'm afraid they are out of luck.

If His Majesty is willing to promote this good match, why would he choose a princess for the prince? He would simply appoint the daughter of the Pei family.

This person was a problem, so Su Xinyi decided to keep a distance from her.
