Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 266 Knowing about Chen Zhi's departure

During this period of time, Lan Yao missed Lan Qian very much in her hometown. She only stayed here for more than two months and felt very lonely. So how did Qianqian survive after staying here for so many years?I am in good health, and I can go out and enjoy the beautiful scenery when I am bored, but what about Qianqian?Qianqian is not in good health, so she can only stay in the house. When she is bored, she can only read books to pass the time.

Lan Qian heard the meaning of Lan Yao's words, chuckled lightly, and said indifferently: "It's fine if you get used to it."

Lan Qian and Lan Yao chatted about some things that Jing Ning and sister A Yuan would come to see her when she had time after she left. They observed Lan Yao without leaving a trace, and found that her sister didn't seem to know about Chen Zhi's affairs, and she was a little hesitant. Do you want to tell her.

Many people already knew about Chen Zhi's departure. Even if he didn't tell his sister, Jing Ning and the others would tell.

"What's wrong? Qianqian." Lan Yao noticed that Qianqian had been staring at her blankly, and couldn't help touching her face. Did something get on her face?
"It's okay." Qianqian recovered and smiled.After thinking about it, I thought I should tell my sister.When Sister Jingning visited her before, she told herself not to think about Prince Chen in her heart, lest her sister would feel sad when she found out.

But now that my sister has come back, knowing that it is only a matter of time, I might as well tell her now.Thinking of this, Lan Qian coughed softly, "Sister..."

Lan Yao had already noticed Lan Qian's abnormality, she kept staring at herself, and stopped talking when she asked, as if she was hiding something from herself. "What's wrong?"

Lan Qian couldn't bear to look into Lan Yao's eyes, she looked away, and said slowly, "Sister, Prince Chen...he left."

Lan Yao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud, shaking her head in disbelief, "Impossible, Chen Zhi can't go back to Qi Country yet. Qianqian, don't lie."

Lan Qian waved her hand to get the servant girl who had been staying in the room to step back. She was not worried about what the servant girl would say to her grandfather, but she was just afraid that it would not be good for the servant girl to see her sister do something out of control.

After the servant girl went out, she looked into Lan Yao's eyes quietly, and said seriously: "Sister, it's true that Chen Zhi left. He left within a few days after you left the capital. The emperor sent someone to Qi Guo searched, but he is not in Qi Guo, so now no one knows where Chen Zhi is."

Lan Yao felt that she couldn't believe it, but Qianqian told herself that he left with a very serious tone.He is not in Qi country, so where did he go?
She didn't know when Lan Yao left from Qianqian, she felt that her mind was in a mess and Chen Zhi left.The words Qianqian said to herself kept ringing in my ears.

Lan Yao returned to her courtyard, the servants had already put away the things she brought back from Yangzhou.She went back to the house, closed the door, and told the servant girl not to disturb herself.

She opened a box carved with plum blossoms, and there were letters written to her by Jing Ning and A Yuan over the past month.On the top of the envelope, a sachet lay quietly there.

In order not to see her grandpa, Lan Yao put the sachet away when she was in the carriage.She took it out with her hand and looked at it carefully. The workmanship was very delicate.Lan Yao praised herself in her heart.But big drops of tears fell on the sachet, soaking the coquettish plum blossoms embroidered on it.

But why did he leave? The sachet he asked for had already been embroidered and hadn't been given to him. How could he leave... Lan Yao cried silently, feeling very unwilling and aggrieved in her heart.I left the capital for Yangzhou before meeting him, but now that I came back, I thought I could finally meet him, but he left a long time ago.

After Lan Yao's mood stabilized, she reached out and gently rubbed the small part that was wet with tears with her fingers, her eyes were wet.

Lan Yao carefully put the sachet back into the wooden box, and when she saw Chen Zhi later, she would give the sachet to him.

But... Lan Yao lowered her eyes sadly, will she and Chen Zhi meet again in the future?she does not know.

Lan Qian was very worried as she watched her sister leave in a daze.She felt that her sister was really tempted by Prince Chen this time.But Prince Chen is from Qi State, so grandfather definitely doesn't want his sister to marry into Qi State.Besides, Chen Zhi is just a little prince now, he might not be able to protect himself in the future, so how can he take good care of his sister?
Chen Zhi didn't know what Lan Yao and Lan Qian were thinking in Qi State.He is still staying in that manor in the outskirts, and people come here every day to report to him what happened in the palace, which of his elder brothers secretly tripped his own younger brother, etc., etc., are all intrigues.Thinking of this, Chen Zhi curled his lips into a mocking smile.

My older brothers and younger brothers have a dignified appearance, but they don't know how selfish and dark they are in their hearts.They're all decent people.

I have been staying in this manor for more than a month, and I have already figured out who in the court belongs to which prince's faction, and who is which faction's undercover agent elsewhere, Chen Zhi rubbed his brows, although Most of them are clear, but the mother told herself not to act rashly.

Half a month after I arrived, my mother finally came to see me.Because concubines cannot leave the palace at will, once they leave the palace, they must be accompanied by followers.That's why she had been looking for an opportunity for a long time before she finally came out to meet Chen Zhi.Because it is more troublesome to send a letter, it would be bad if the letter did not explain clearly or the envelope was robbed by someone else.

So Chen's mother took the risk and sneaked out of the palace by herself. Fortunately, she was not found and followed by anyone.

As soon as Chen's mother arrived, she went straight to the topic and told Chen Zhi her plan.Although Mother Chen misses her child after so many years, but time is tight and she cannot be delayed.

"You stay here for the time being, don't go back to the palace right now. The situation in the palace is more complicated now, your brothers are all racking their brains for the throne, and the emperor is already determined and unable to spare, so let him They are fighting each other according to their abilities. You should just stand aside now and don’t act rashly. They all think you are in Zhao country, and they don’t pay much attention to you. You have to seize the opportunity, you know? Stop.”

Chen Zhi listened to Chen's mother's words, with a casual smile on his face all the time, until finally Chen's mother called out "Zhi'er", his expression changed.

How long has it been since I heard my mother call me that? It has been several years.Ever since he went to Zhao country when he was young, no one called him that anymore.

"I see, mother." Chen Zhi withdrew the smile on his face and agreed. "Do not worry."

Although Chen Zhi hadn't been in Qi State these years, there were some people of his own in the court of Qi State. The number was not many, but they were all important positions.
