Chapter 174 Asking for information
The people sent by Xia Zeqi immediately caught up with the bullied eunuch.

When he walked in, he saw that the eunuch's clothes were dirty and his hands were still dripping with blood. His eyes flashed and he sighed.

"You are so pitiful. I didn't expect the people around His Highness to be so cruel."

When the injured eunuch heard this, his eyes turned red: "It's not the prince's fault, it's all my fault that I'm useless and not liked by the prince."

"So everyone bullied me."

After hearing this, Xia Zeqi's people immediately knew that the status of the eunuch in front of them was very low in the East Palace. He was not favored and was often bullied.

This was exactly the person he was looking for.

I used to think that the East Palace was impregnable, and even if I wanted to ask for some news, I couldn't get it out.

The breakthrough is coming now.

He had no doubts at all.

After all, as far as he knew, there were few people in that courtyard who could be vented on.

Isn't this normal?
He comforted the eunuch with a few words of comfort very experiencedly, which moved the eunuch deeply.

Then Qiao Niannian and the prince were mentioned without any trace.

The eunuch didn't hide anything and immediately told the story about the two people painting in the yard.

Xia Zeqi's people got the news and turned around and left.

When the eunuch saw the other party leaving, he weighed the money in his hand a few times and spoke in disgust.

"I only want to get information for this little money. I'm dreaming!"

He delivered the news to the other party, wiped off the chicken blood on his hands, and went back without hesitation.

The gatekeeper closed the door and stepped forward immediately.

"Are you okay? Did I hit you hard just now?"

The eunuch shook his head: "It's not heavy, nothing happened at all. I made five taels of silver today, and each of us brothers has half."

The two of them completed the prince's order, made money, and happily shared the money.

Xia Zeqi got the news and found out that Qiao Niannian had been with Xia Rongyu. He was unhappy but relieved at the same time.

It would be nice if it wasn't Qiao Niannian.

He knew that Qiao Niannian was not that capable.

But if it weren't for Qiao Niannian, who would this person be?
Xia Zeqi did not leave the imperial concubine's palace.

Compared to him and the Dark God, his mother and concubine were more familiar with the Dark God.

Moreover, his mother-in-law also has a magic weapon sent by the Dark God, and maybe she can contact the Dark God.

The imperial concubine had already guessed that it was not Qiao Niannian, and was not surprised at all by the results of the investigation.

"Qier, what are your plans for that girl Qiao Niannian?"

Before, the imperial concubine was afraid that her son's affection for Qiao Niannian would cause her to miss important events.

She also saw what happened with the statue today. Her son didn't like Qiao Niannian at all.

Xia Zeqi didn't hide anything when she heard her mother-in-law's question.

"Mother, Qiao Niannian will be the third prince's concubine in the future."

"If possible, I hope that my mother-in-law can call people over and get closer to her."

The imperial concubine raised her eyebrows.

Xia Zeqi explained.

"Qiao Niannian is the legitimate daughter of Mingyuan Marquis Mansion. Originally, I thought she was not favored, so I didn't take her seriously."

"But recently, I discovered that Qiao Niannian is very popular in the Hou Mansion and has a close relationship with the General Mansion."

"Not only that, first Qiao Niannian was liked by the emperor's father, and now he is also liked by the emperor's grandmother."

"The most important thing is that Xia Rongyu also treats Qiao Niannian differently."

When the imperial concubine heard this, she didn't think there was anything wrong with Xia Zeqi's idea. Instead, she gave Xia Zeqi an appreciative look.

"Qier, you did a good job."

"Since the prince likes it, you should snatch him over."

"My son is no worse than anyone else. If the prince can like him, so can my son." Not only did the imperial concubine not think there was anything wrong with Xia Zeqi's idea, she also felt that her son was much better than Xia Rongyu.

Since Xia Rongyu is interested in Qiao Niannian, her son should snatch Qiao Niannian over.

As for whether she will be the third prince's concubine in the end, it depends on how important Qiao Niannian's role is.

If both the General's Mansion and Mingyuan Marquis' Mansion can support the third prince, then Qiao Niannian will be the third prince's concubine.

If not, Qiao Niannian can be a concubine.

Finally, the imperial concubine also promised: "Don't worry, I will call Qiao Niannian over in the next two days to get closer to her."

A smile immediately appeared on Xia Zeqi's face: "Thank you, concubine."

"But regarding the matter of the Dark God, is there anything the mother and concubine can do?"

Hearing this, the imperial concubine pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke: "The Dark God was given to me by an expert. I need to contact him again."

"By the way, I heard that Qiao Chaosheng, the concubine of Mingyuanhou Mansion, intends to assist you, right?"

Xia Zeqi nodded: "Qiao Chaosheng has approached Erchen several times, but he has no ability and has not entered an official career now, so he is of little use to Erchen."

The imperial concubine shook her head: "Confused, he is the person whose name was mentioned by the Dark God. Although he has not achieved much yet, his achievements will definitely be high in the future."

"Since he took the initiative to come to your door, you should try to win over him."

Xia Zeqi didn't expect that Qiao Chaosheng would be praised by the Dark God, and he immediately took it seriously.

"Mother and concubine, I will accept Qiao Chaosheng."

The imperial concubine nodded with satisfaction.

This attitude is okay.

She looked at Xia Zeqi and revealed some more news.

"Forgot to tell you."

"The master who gave me the statue of the Dark God is Qiao Chaosheng's master. You can ask him about the Dark God through Qiao Chaosheng."

After Xia Zeqi got the useful information, she said a few words to the imperial concubine and left.

The imperial concubine watched her son leave and let the nanny who was waiting beside her come in.

Regarding the Dark God, the grandmother around me also knows about it.

Mammy is the confidant of the imperial concubine. She will leave it to her to handle any matters she may have on weekdays.

"You leave the palace tomorrow and deliver a letter to me."

Grandma nodded in agreement.

The imperial concubine looked at the box beside her and asked her mother to put it away.

East Palace.

Qiao Niannian watched the light on the bell dim, and then put the bell away.

She and Xia Rongyu listened to the words of the imperial concubine and Xia Zeqi from beginning to end.

Qiao Niannian was disgusted by everyone.

The imperial concubine really thinks her son is some kind of treasure, she doesn't care about him at all, okay?
Also, she was only ten years old, and she was plotted against by such a disgusting mother and son, and she was not in a good mood anymore.

As for Xia Zeqi saying that Xia Rongyu likes her.

Qiao Niannian didn't believe it at all.

Xia Zeqi always likes to grab things with Xia Rongyu, everything.

Probably because of the close relationship between her and Xia Rongyu, she felt that Xia Rongyu liked her.

How is this possible!
In Qiao Niannian's mind, Xia Rong was a person as magnificent as the moon, the kind who could not be desecrated.

She couldn't help but look at Xia Rongyu.

"Xia Zeqi is so shameless. You just treat me as your sister, but she actually thinks you like me."

"He himself is dirty and thinks everyone is just like him."

Xia Rongyu touched his nose guiltily, and it could be seen that Qiao Niannian was really angry.

He comforted Qiao Niannian.

"Don't be angry, I will avenge you."
