C200 Before the Death of the Fish
C200 Before the Death of the Fish
The housekeeper was quickly called over. When he saw Princess Changle sitting at the table, his expression changed and he slowly kneeled in front of her.
Previously, he didn't think much of it. However, last time, Princess Changle had directly killed Consort Yun and her child. Since then, everyone in the crown prince's mansion had thought that Princess Changle … He was not someone to be trifled with!
Before this, the butler had also told Prince about his ruthlessness. However, Prince did not agree with it.
Now...
"What did this princess tell you before she left?"
Princess Changle's voice came from above. The butler shivered for a moment before continuing, "Princess, it's this servant who failed his duty. But if Prince wanted to do anything, this servant couldn't stop him!"
Hearing this, Princess Changle chuckled, "That's true, I'm pregnant now, so there's no one with Prince. Since that's the case, why don't you find a few people for me and give them to Prince?"
The butler looked up in surprise. Princess Changle had already picked up the cup of tea in front of her and said softly, "You'd better be obedient."
The butler immediately understood and said, "Yes!"
Since the beginning, the thing that the emperor hated the most was to be infatuated with women, because previously, the nation of Xiliang had once destroyed a country because of women. Now, if the emperor were to know …
This Princess Changle was indeed a fierce character!
At this time, within Yingjia, the new top scholar had already come out.
Zhou Heng deserved it.
When he saw Lee Wanning on the stage, his heart was filled with emotion, but behind her, there was only one sentence left of a thousand words.
"Thank you, your majesty, Empress Dowager!"
The officials all knelt down, "Long live the Emperor, long live and long live Empress Dowager!"
Lee Wanning waved her hand, and Su Ann left the court with a word.
Lee Wanning returned to her bedroom. Outside the palace, she saw Zhou Qu, who was standing there.
Lee Wanning paused for a moment, then handed Ann Yang to the palace maid beside her and stepped forward.
"Zhou Qu."
Hearing this sound, Zhou Qu's body seemed to tremble for a moment. Then, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Lee Wanning.
"I have something to ask you." Lee Wanning said directly.
Zhou Qu looked at her with eyes that made Lee Wanning look away.
"I want to know, what happened with Yingjia … General Jun, what does this have to do with you? "
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Zhou Qu's expression changed. From the expression on his face, Lee Wanning knew that … It really did have something to do with it.
She was in disbelief.
"When you wanted to enter the imperial court, did you want to take revenge for your parents?"
After Lee Wanning finished her sentence, Zhou Qu raised his head. When they met eyes, Lee Wanning's expression changed slightly.
Then, Zhou Qu gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
Lee Wanning tried hard to control her body.
"So, what about now?"
Zhou Qu said, "I told you before that I was serious."
Lee Wanning knew that what he wanted to say was what he had told her before. After 15 years, when everything was settled, she would leave together with him.
But...
Lee Wanning held her hand and said, "Prince Regent …" It seems to know. "
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Zhou Qu immediately looked up and said, "What did you say?!"
"This matter... "He told me that he might already know your identity. Before that, he even suggested that I kill you."
Zhou Qu's expression couldn't help but change when he heard that.
Previously, he felt that Prince Regent's gaze towards him was a little strange, and recently, he had been trying to get close to him by constantly asking him about his family background. Even though Zhou Qu intentionally hid it, he was never good at lying, so what he said might be filled with loopholes in Prince Regent's eyes.
Then he might be even more sure of himself.
Zhou Qu clenched his hands.
Lee Wanning gritted her teeth and said, "Why did they … You never tell me? "
"Because I never thought that one day, you and I would be standing in the same position as we are today. When I want to talk to you later, it would be too late."
"Then what do you want to do now? Right now, there's only Ann Yang left in the An clan. Do you want to … "Revenge?"
Lee Wanning's eyes were filled with eagerness. She had a feeling that Zhou Qu in front of her had become a stranger …
Even though it was just like what Ann Tan had told him before, it would change. Everything would change.
But Lee Wanning didn't believe him.
She felt that no matter what happened to others, Zhou Qu would not change.
But now, Lee Wanning thought, that's not the case.
Everything had changed, everything had changed …
Zhou Qu looked at her and said, "I've told you before, I'm serious about everything I said. From today on, I will seriously support Ann Yang and go with you. After 15 years, we will return to the field and not care about anything like this anymore."
Zhou Qu's eyes were filled with eagerness. That manner finally calmed Lee Wanning down a little.
She said, "Then Prince Regent... "What should we do?"
Hearing this, Zhou Qu's face slightly changed. Then, he said, "I can't do anything. If he wants to break this secret, then I …" "Kill him."
Zhou Qu's words made Lee Wanning's entire body shudder.
She said, "You... "Seriously?"
"Right, I won't let anyone stop me!"
Lee Wanning took a deep breath and said, "But he still has military power in his hands. What if he has some tricks up his sleeve?"
"Then take over his military power first. Right now, you are the person in control of the entire world. It is not excessive for you to take back Prince Regent's military power for the reason of protecting the emperor's safety."
Just as Zhou Qu finished his sentence, a burst of crisp applause came from the front.
Lee Wanning's expression immediately changed. When she raised her head, she saw Ann Ping sitting on the palace wall.
He did not know how much of what they had just said had been heard by him.
Zhou Qu's expression immediately changed. He stood in front of Lee Wanning and looked at the person in front of him.
"How dare you!" You actually dare to barge into the Imperial Palace! "
Ann Ping laughed directly and looked at Zhou Qu, saying, "Even if I am really trespassing, it is not up to you to speak! Zhou Qu, you are a foreign official, don't you know that you should keep your distance from those from the harem? You are now... What are you trying to do? "
Hearing Ann Ping's words, Zhou Qu's face immediately changed. He then said, "You …"
Before he could finish his words, Ann Ping had already landed on the ground. He then stretched out his hand and pulled, Lee Wanning's body was already in his arms.
"You …"
Lee Wanning was about to struggle free when Ann Ping said with a smile, "As the saying goes, the fat water doesn't flow to outsiders. No matter what, this is our royal family's Empress Dowager. Since when did it become your turn to meddle in it?"
"Release me!"
Anger was written all over Lee Wanning's face. That look made Ann Ping's eyes widen even more. Then, he said, "I've heard your words clearly. If the officials of the civil and military officials know General Zhou's shocking secret …"
Before Ann Ping could finish his words, Zhou Qu had already pulled out his sword. Ann Ping raised his foot and stopped Zhou Qu's movements.
He looked at Zhou Qu and said, "How can General Zhou be so impatient? Could it be that you want to kill me right here and silence me? "
Zhou Qu's face was filled with anger. The more angry he was, the more obvious the pride on his face became.
He said, "Prince Regent, I don't want to pursue these matters of the past anymore, you just heard it, I want to support the emperor, after 15 years, everything here has nothing to do with me, if you want to force me like this, I can only …"
Before Zhou Qu finished his sentence, Ann Ping had already started laughing.
He said, "Don't want to pursue the matter? Then, This King will ask you a question. Not long ago, was the murder of Zhang Zhu related to you? "
Zhou Qu's face turned pale.
Ann Ping smiled.
"Looks like I guessed right."
"How did you know?!" Zhou Qu raised his eyes. Inside, there was obvious killing intent.
Ann Ping was not the least bit confused as he said, "Unfortunately, but I happened to be in that flower house, so I naturally came to take a look when I heard such a big commotion. I saw your back, and was not very sure, but at that time, the Emperor did not want to investigate this matter, so I went to investigate and found out that Zhang Zhu had framed the Jun Family. This way, your identity was exposed beyond a doubt."
Zhou Qu suddenly smiled and then slowly raised his eyes and said, "Really? If that's the case … "I cannot avoid it today …"
"Zhou Qu!"
Just when Zhou Qu was about to pull out his sword, Lee Wanning's voice sounded. Then she went up and slowly pushed Zhou Qu's sword back.
Lee Wanning looked at Ann Ping.
She said, "Zhou Qu may be wrong to do this, but in my eyes, Zhang Zhu killed their entire family and killed the loyal, this is not an excessive result! Even though Wu Tie would do this, he was extremely disappointed in the Royal Family! Right now, he has already said that he will support the Emperor with me. If Prince Regent has to reveal his identity, that is fine! But don't blame me for that. Now that the Emperor is in my hands and the national seal is in my hands, if you really want the nation of Yingjia to fall apart, then give it a try! "
