Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 340 Danger, there is an instinctive vigilance
Autumn wind and autumn rain, all night.

The next day was overcast and the temperature dropped significantly.

The five watch clapper rang, and not long after, Dongfang Hao came out of the bedroom.

"My lord, Shopkeeper Song is waiting for you in the study in the main courtyard." A servant stepped forward to inform.

"Hmm." Dongfang Hao responded lightly.

The situation in the Northern Kingdom is very delicate recently. The emperor Ji Ye is seriously ill, and the fourth prince Ji Hanmo has obvious advantages. It is no accident that he will become the next emperor.

Ji Hanhao's eyes were red with anxiety, he was fighting a trapped beast, looking for reinforcements everywhere.

Because the three kingdoms of Dayu, Beidi, and Nandi had agreed with each other at the beginning of their founding that they would never interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, especially the succession of the throne.

When both sides are equal or slightly weaker, marrying a princess can strengthen the momentum and win the support of some stakeholders.

However, when the situation is obviously weak, such as Ji Hanhao at this time, even with the backing of the old Mount Tai, the emperor of Dayu Kingdom, he has no power to recover.

Dongfang Hao also received a distress letter.

He ignored it, and planned to obstruct Dongfang Yun from being the queen.It is even more impossible to help now.

However, there are still some business contacts here. Part of the business in Su Wangfu is in cooperation with Ji Hanhao, so there can be no mistakes.

In the past few days, Song You has been discussing countermeasures with him.

Come here so early today, there should be something new.

Dongfanghao didn't care much, just took care of Chunhuan, told her not to disturb Chu Sijiu, and let her sleep more.

"Yes, my lord." Chun Huan nodded in response.

Flicking up the sleeves of his robe, he walked outside.

When I went out, I caught a glimpse of Phalaenopsis by the courtyard wall. They couldn't bear the damage of wind and rain, and they all drooped their heads, looking very pitiful.

Stopping in his tracks, he ordered again, "Move all these flowers away, and replace them with a batch that blooms better."

"Yes, my lord." Mei Yun quickly responded.

……

When Chu Sijiu woke up, it was already an hour later.

Stretch your waist greatly, it's comfortable.

Chunhuan jumped in, looking very excited, "Ma'am, the temperature is cooling down today, I need to add an extra dress."

Knowing her virtue, Chu Sijiu raised her eyes to look at her, "Is there anything new?"

Chunhuan chuckled, "I heard from the servant in the main courtyard that someone from the palace came to report that last night, Concubine Yi gave birth to a princess."

This news... sounds terrifying.

Empress Ji Mojing really has some skills, and she even played a "big transformation into a living person" in the palace.

Holding back a smile, she waved her hand, "Understood, you can go out."

Chunhuan said "hmm", walked to the door and turned around to add, "Concubine Yi gave birth to a daughter successfully, which means that she is a human and not a monster, and the side concubine Ji in our mansion will also benefit from it."

Chu Sijiu hehehe, "She is a human being, that's all right, you can go out."

……

In the inner courtyard of the gallery, Chu Sijiu sent Gu Biqi to Mi Suotu.

Then he smiled and reported the news to his two followers.

"Concubine Yi's pillow has become a princess."

Shui Hanbing would visit the palace from time to time, so it was not surprising to hear the news.

"When the due date comes, there will always be a baby. The prince has too much to do with it, so it can only be a princess." He analyzed calmly.

"Then let's proceed according to the plan." Chu Sijiu didn't care much.

"Xin Nailiang has nothing to do recently, I'll let him do it." Shui Hanbing's face was dark, he was staring at Xiaoqin Prince's Mansion recently, and always felt that there was going to be a monster there.

"It's not a trivial matter for him to look at the witnesses to conjure a baby in the palace for no reason, and there must be a lot of people involved."

The corner of Chu Sijiu's mouth curled into a slight smile. The crime of deceiving the emperor and confusing the royal family's blood should be enough for the queen to drink a pot.

It's just pity for Ji Changai, the pond fish that was affected by the disaster.

In the past, Chu Sijiu might have thought about it a little bit more. Over the past year, he has been stimulated too much, and his heart has become more and more hardened.

For this inevitable collateral damage, she chose to ignore it.

Yun Duo had heard a lot of Gongdou scenes, and at this moment she was a little excited, and asked secretly, "After collecting the evidence, let Concubine Xian do it."

Chu Sijiu looked at her with a half smile, "She is the most powerful person in the palace, who else can I look for if not her?"

This matter is not complicated, a few words will be enough.

Shui Han stared at Chu Sijiu with cold eyes, and said word by word, "Prince Xiao went to the palace a few days ago, and it has been calm since then. I always feel that they are playing tricks."

This is a big deal, Chu Sijiu raised his eyebrows nervously, "What will happen?"

"Unknown, I can't see the movement for the time being, but I have a bad feeling." Shui Hanbing's eyes were serious. As a top killer, he was instinctively alert to danger.

Yun Duo often goes in and out of Prince Xiao's Mansion, and is familiar with the people there, "How about I go and check? Dongfang Tong has taken a fancy to Lin Zimo, and always asks me to take her out, hoping to meet him by chance."

Chu Sijiu also heard about this incident.

Originally, they thought that Gu Biqi was Lin Zimo's fiancée, but they found out after looking around, it was not.

Gu Biqi's biological father wanted to tell her a family relationship in Yecheng, she didn't want to marry blindly, but wanted to check for herself.All the people in and out of the gallery were talented and learned people, so Lin Zimo was asked to act as a middleman to hug Chu Sijiu's thigh.

According to her, Lin Zimo did have a fiancée in his hometown.

So, Dongfang Tong's heart is probably paid by mistake.

"Forget it, the little girl has just started to cherish the spring, so don't toss about the marriage that can't be won. In the end, there will be no benefits at both ends." Chu Sijiu refused immediately.

While discussing, Chunhuan came in.

He looked hesitant, "Ma'am, there is an old man on Suzaku Street who is asking around for you."

Before Chu Sijiu could react, Shui Hanbing stood up.

"I'll go and have a look." The windy handsome man said coldly, and the bird disappeared.

Chu Sijiu and Yun Duo looked at each other, speechless for a while.

"What does that person look like?" Chu Sijiu could only ask.

Chunhuan also heard that he belonged to Erdao dealers, so he said roughly, "Wearing a green cloth dress, he is of medium height and looks average..."

Chu Sijiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, all passers-by looked like this.

"Okay, stop talking, you can go out and have a look too." He waved his hand casually and dismissed her.

In just a quarter of an hour, Shui Hanbing rushed back.

"It's the housekeeper of the Chu Mansion—Sun Jin."

He also knew this person. When Chu Sijiu was shopping in the street, he would occasionally come to look for her on the street and met her a few times.

Chu Sijiu became serious, and her body tensed up.

Instantly recalled a lot of people and things in the Chu Mansion in his mind, so sad that tears were about to come down.

"Why didn't you bring him in?" she asked.

"You can't see him." Shui Hanbing said simply, "I asked the guy from the gallery to take him to the inn."

Chu Sijiu was stunned for a moment, then her mind immediately turned around, the emperor was trying to find a fault with her.It is indeed inappropriate to see the butler of the Chu family at this time.

"Then...you give him some silver taels." Chu Sijiu hurriedly took out a few large-value silver bills from his waist pocket.

Shui Hanbing frowned, and a big question mark was drawn on Qingjuan's face, "Don't you think it's suspicious that he appeared at this time?"
