Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 417 Goodbye Yashan
Old General Xiao and Zheng Cheng looked at each other, and there was a chill in the eyes of both of them. Now the situation is very clear, this is a trap set by Zhao Duo.The General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion have never intervened in party disputes, nor have they publicly expressed their support for any prince.Although the Fourth Prince wanted to absorb the influence of the Second Mansion, he had no choice. Since he could not absorb it, he would destroy the relationship between the Second Mansion and others.

And this bystander is naturally Zhao Yu, after all, the only one who can compete with him now is Zhao Yu, and Jing Ning is both the young wife of the general's mansion and the eldest lady of the prime minister's mansion, so it is natural to act as the most suitable contradiction candidates.As long as Zhao Yu does something that hurts her, the emperor will definitely punish him heavily after being furious, because Xiao Lin is still at the border, in order to maintain his rule, it is not impossible for the emperor to push out the second prince.

"This time we owe His Royal Highness a favor. If His Royal Highness needs anything in the future, the two of us will definitely help each other without violating the principle." Old General Xiao clasped his fists at Zhao Yu, although his face was full of evil spirits, But Zhao Yu knew that it was not aimed at him, but at the Six Emperors who lifted a rock and shot him in the foot.

"In this case, I will thank you both first." Zhao Yu smiled warmly, but there was a bit of calculation in his eyes. He was very willing to get such a promise from General Xiao, even if the palace was besieged a few more times.Speaking of which, I would like to thank my sixth brother at that time.Thinking of Zhao Duo's gloomy eyes, the smile on Zhao Yu's lips became a little colder.

After watching General Xiao and Prime Minister Zheng leave, Zhao Yu returned to the study, where the man who had sent Jingning away before was already waiting inside.

"Song Yuan, how is the situation in the palace?" Zhao Yu looked at the green bamboo fence outside the window, and his tone of voice made people unable to hear the joy or anger.

"The emperor has taken Longyan Dan for a long time. Although there is no sign on the surface, the toxin has penetrated into the lungs. It takes half a month at most, and ten days at least." Song Yuan didn't say what he said later, but Zhao Yu understood it very well in his heart.

"Then let's set it ten days later, that day is Si'er's birthday."

Song Yuan was a little dazed when he heard the sound. He looked at Zhao Yu's tall and lonely back, hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed and persuaded: "She definitely doesn't want to see you like this."

Zhao Yu's back froze, and the chill all over his body suddenly increased, but Song Yuan showed no fear. He had seen Zhao Yu even more irritable earlier, that was the month before his Si'er passed away. .

"Go get ready." Zhao Yu's voice was a little tense, and he waved his hand lightly, as if he was so tired to the bone that he didn't have the strength to say another word.Song Yuan silently nodded and retreated.

At this time, Jing Ning slowly opened his eyes, and all he could see was an exquisite arrangement, obviously a woman's boudoir.Jing Ning's eyes were confused for a moment. If it wasn't for the pain in her wrist and ankle, she would have thought she was still in Zhao Yu's room.

"Are you awake?" Cai Yashan's slightly chilly face was reflected in Jingning's eyes.

Jing Ning frowned softly, looking at Cai Yashan with vigilance.

Cai Yashan snorted coldly, turned to the side angrily and said: "Look, I said don't save her, you insist on picking her up, it's really heartless to throw your face when you open your eyes."

Jing Ning followed Cai Yashan's gaze, his eyes widened for a moment, and it turned out to be the Fourth Highness Zhao Heng.Zhao Heng was a little embarrassed, but he looked at Cai Yashan with tenderness.After noticing Jing Ning's gaze, he turned around, and said with a little guilt: "Shan'er said angry words, young lady, don't take it to heart."

Jing Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and she looked at Cai Yashan imposingly, fearing that she and Zhao Heng had rescued herself from the faint in the street, but the impression she left on Jing Ning was really bad, that's why I saw her just now Only then will there be such an expression.

"It was my fault just now, Miss Cai, don't blame me." Jing Ning looked at Cai Yashan with clear eyes, and her tone was very sincere.

Cai Yashan didn't seem to expect that Jing Ning's attitude of admitting his mistakes was so good. She glanced at Jing Ning, hummed softly, and walked around behind Zhao Heng. .

Jing Ning couldn't help chuckling a few times, she only discovered today that Cai Yashan's temperament also has such a pleasing side.

"But why did Young Madam fall for Midixiang?" Zhao Heng asked suspiciously.

Jing Ning frowned, no wonder she felt that her mind was not clear when she woke up this morning, it turned out that she was poisoned by Midiexiang.Presumably, the maid in her palace had sneaked in with Zhao Duo's people, and secretly put the spice into the incense burner in her cabinet when she and Wen Xing were not paying attention.The rosemary fragrance is colorless and odorless, and it is indistinguishable from other spices, so even Luohua didn't notice it.

If she really decided not to participate in the hunting ceremony today, she might inhale more Midixiang, and she might still be unconscious in Zhao Yu's room at this time.

Thinking of this, Jing Ning couldn't help grinding his teeth, wishing to tear Zhao Duo to pieces.Seeing that her complexion was not good, Zhao Heng wisely didn't ask any more questions. There was always an undercurrent in this capital, and there was never a moment of rest. He didn't want to get involved.

"There are still people using such indecent means! It's really shameless!" Cai Yashan became angry herself. She originally thought that Jing Ning just passed out because of physical discomfort. Only when Zhao Heng asked her did she know the truth. It's rosemary.

"However, Miss Cai and His Highness the Fourth Highness really have a very close relationship. If my guess is correct, this should be Miss Cai's boudoir, right?" Jing Ning looked around and looked at the two with a smile.

Zhao Heng's face turned red when he heard the words. After all, a woman's boudoir is not easy to enter, and even her biological father has to avoid it a little bit. It was really rude for him to sit there leisurely just now.Although Cai Yashan had a bit of embarrassment on her face, she still stared at Jingning with wide eyes.

"You are a person with a lot of thoughts. You just rescued you, and you speculate about us like this. You are really wolf-hearted!"

"It's because I misunderstood Miss Cai and His Highness the Fourth Highness." Although Jing Ning was apologizing, the smile on her lips deepened a bit, and the meaning of ridicule in her words became stronger.

Zhao Heng frowned when he heard this, and just as he was about to explain, he saw Cai Yashan stepping forward. He yelled in his heart that he was not good, and before he could stop him, Cai Yashan said proudly: "Since you know that Ah Heng and I They are a pair of Bi people, you will never hang around in front of Ah Heng again, it is simply an insult to gentleness."

Zhao Heng sighed, looking very helpless, but he didn't say much, just looked at Cai Yashan's delicate face and smiled.
