C104 See Imperial Consort Hua in the Backyard
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Ann Yu immediately stood up and said, "Is what you said true? This Third Brother has no enmity with you, why are you capturing Zhou Bao!? "
Lee Wanning had only told her her speculations and she was already so excited. If she knew that Zhou Bao was really held hostage by Ann Wen, she would definitely turn the world upside down.
Thinking up to here, Lee Wanning could only say, "I don't know, so I want you to …"
"Don't worry, I'll go find third brother right now!" With that, Ann Yu turned to leave. Lee Wanning quickly pulled her back and said, "Don't be so agitated yet. If you go now, what if your third brother doesn't admit to it?"
Ann Yu thought this was strange and said, "What's there to admit to? If he said he wasn't there, then he definitely wasn't. "
Lee Wanning didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Ann Yu's words. It seemed that the little princess had been protected too well by the Emperor. She didn't know that the human heart was treacherous.
Lee Wanning said, "It's not that I don't trust your third brother, but I want to ask the princess about your relationship with Royal Father …"
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Ann Yu's face changed. She covered Lee Wanning's mouth and said, "Elder sister's words in front of Niu'er are fine. If you say them in front of other people, then you will have to behead them."
Lee Wanning gently pulled her hand down and said, "Princess, this is what I wanted to tell you. You are in the palace, so you should know the purpose of your third brother's actions."
Ann Yu's expression changed. After walking a few rounds in front of Lee Wanning, she raised her head and said, "You mean that Third Bro kidnapped Zhou Bao because he wants to threaten General Zhou to support his team?"
Lee Wanning did not reply. Her noncommittal attitude made Ann Yu a little irritated.
Although she was a simple person, she had still grown up in this palace. She had heard of this kind of fratricidal competition for the dragon throne, but she had never realized that such a thing had already silently appeared at her side.
It was true that Royal Father's body was getting worse and worse. Last time, she heard him talking about the throne to Mother Consort.
Mother Consort had no son, only a daughter like herself. Plus, Royal Father had always liked her and was willing to talk to her about some things. Mother Consort had only said one sentence at that time.
In this chaotic world, Third Prince could undoubtedly protect the foundation of the entire Yingjia, but after seizing the position, it was inevitable that he would make a move on his own brothers and sisters. As for Wu Tie, in this prosperous world, he could naturally become a king, but in this chaotic world …
In recent years, Royal Father had only placed his hopes on these two children. After Mother Consort's analysis, he could not make up her mind. As for Mother Consort, she recommended someone to him.
Royal Father had many children, but not all of them could enjoy the treatment today. In the cold palace, there was a person who had been locked up by Royal Father for dozens of years.
It was Ann Yu's seventh brother, Ann Tan.
Ann Yu knew even less than Ann Yu. Later on, Ann Yu told Ann Yu that Ann Tan arrived at this point because his Mother Consort angered the emperor, and now, ten years later, Ann Tan's Mother Consort had already passed away, and Mother Consort had often taken care of him, so she knew that the child was smart and was a good candidate.
When he heard Ann Yu's words, the Emperor just kept sneering. He knew that all of you were after him, so he left. Until today, he had never been to Ann Yu's palace.
Ann Yu asked Mother Consort why she was acting on Ann Tan's behalf, but Mother Consort could only shake her head with a wry smile.
Ann Yu didn't understand, and she didn't want her to understand either. It was precisely because of this that the Emperor liked her. If Ann Yu was as scheming as the princes and princesses, how could the Emperor like her?
Ann Yu was lost in her thoughts, unable to remember that Lee Wanning was still waiting for her answer. Only then did she raise her head.
Ann Yu looked at her and said, "Elder sister, what are you planning to do?"
"Third Prince's Mansion..." You should be able to go, right? "
Ann Yu nodded. Lee Wanning said, "Bring me there. I just need to make sure that Zhou Bao is safe."
Ann Yu originally thought that she was trying to make things difficult for him, but when she heard Lee Wanning's words, she immediately laughed and said, "What's so difficult about that?" Rest assured, when afternoon comes, I will bring someone to go invite you over to the General Mansion to go with you. "
Lee Wanning thanked him, Ann Yu kept saying it was alright, and then she headed back.
Although Ann Yu had promised him, the most difficult thing was, how could he let Ann Wen give his child back to him?
Should he let Zhou Qu stand on his side first?
It was one thing if Ann Wen didn't believe him. Although Fifth Prince seemed simple, he definitely wouldn't give Zhou Qu this kind of opportunity. If he found out that Zhou Qu and Ann Wen were together, he might do something.
Thinking up to here, Lee Wanning suddenly had a headache. As she was walking, the servant girl in front suddenly kneeled down. Lee Wanning, who didn't know what was going on, raised her head, but heard a voice from the front, "How dare you!" "He actually dares not kneel when he meets Consort Dowager Hua?!"
Before Lee Wanning could react, her servant girl had already pulled her down. Lee Wanning then knelt on the ground.
Consort Hua, who was sitting on the palanquin, looked at Lee Wanning and asked, "Who are you?"
Lee Wanning paused for a moment and slowly said, "Reporting to Consort Dowager Hua, I'm from General Zhou's house. Because I came with General Zhou, I felt bored, so I turned around. I didn't expect to meet Consort Dowager Hua, so please forgive me!"
Lee Wanning's words were simple and proper. Consort Hua didn't want to say anything, so after a soft grunt, she let her men continue walking forward. When she passed by Lee Wanning, she suddenly remembered something and stopped the sedan.
She pointed at Lee Wanning. "What did you wipe off your body with? Why is it so fragrant?"
Only then did Lee Wanning react. "Niangniang, this humble one made it up by herself. If Niangniang likes it, this humble one can make it up for you."
"How dare you!" Do you know that using incense in the harem is taboo! " Lee Wanning's expression changed and she kneeled down once again.
Originally, this incense could have made people happy, but later on, many of the women in the harem, in order to make the emperor happy, added a lot of messy things to the spices.
Lee Wanning, on the other hand, didn't know it. She didn't smell anything on herself. Consort Hua's nose was really sharp. Even the servant girl beside her didn't notice it. She actually smelled it.
While Lee Wanning was thinking this, Consort Hua slowly got off the palanquin and gently lifted Lee Wanning's chin with her finger.
Lee Wanning could only try her best to maintain an eye on her.
At this moment, she could clearly see Consort Hua's appearance. She was around twenty years old and had fair skin and pretty facial features. Her eyes were dainty and she looked like a beauty.
After looking at Lee Wanning's body, she said, "Yin'er, don't be so shocked. She's not from the harem, so it's normal for her not to know."
Lee Wanning didn't know what Consort Hua meant by this. While she was looking at her, she had already let go of her hand. "What's your name?"
"This humble girl … "Lee Wanning."
"Oh? Tomorrow, bring your things and come to my chambers. I have been here for so many days, but have never seen such an interesting person like you. "
Lee Wanning didn't know where she had gotten such an interesting look, so she said, "Niangniang, this harem …" I can't just casually go in and out. "
Just as Lee Wanning finished speaking, Consort Hua had already taken out a identity token from her bosom and placed it in her hand. She said, "Bring this thing with you and they will let you in."
Lee Wanning took the thing with a hint of fear and trepidation. Before she could react, she had already turned around and left.
Lee Wanning frowned.
When she finally got to the original place, Zhou Qu had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Lee Wanning, he immediately rushed over and asked, "Aa Ning, why did you go there for so long?"
Lee Wanning shook her head, gesturing for him to get into the carriage.
She told what she and Ann Yu had said to Zhou Qu. Zhou Qu immediately frowned and said, "I'm afraid this Third Prince's mansion is …"
Lee Wanning knew that his stance was a little complicated and said, "It's fine. I'll just go with the princess myself. You don't have to worry about anything else."
How could Zhou Qu not be worried?
He frowned. While he was thinking, Lee Wanning said, "But I have something I want to ask you. Consort Hua in the harem …" What is your background? "
Zhou Qu shook his head and said, "The imperial court and the imperial harem have never been implicated. I also don't know who you are talking about."
Lee Wanning wasn't surprised, she didn't tell him about Consort Hua's request to enter the palace, she only told him to go alone at night. If he didn't go for a long time, Zhou Qu would go to take a look.
Zhou Qu could only nod. The two of them went inside the General Mansion. When Zhou Qu helped Lee Wanning out of the car, they saw Wang Yanran, who was already waiting there, unknowingly.
