370 Not lying (3)
Noble Consort Chen pondered for a moment and waved her hand. lang ‘er, you should go and see him.
“Yes.” Lang ‘er said. She placed her hands on her lower abdomen, crossed the threshold, and left the courtyard. Her figure gradually drifted away.
Lin ‘an retracted his gaze and went along with the topic. consort mother, brother crown prince’s innocence can be restored, and it’s all thanks to Xu Qi’ an. Imperial mother, you don’t know how hard it was for me to raise him.
“You always say that huaiqing will cultivate talents and power. In fact, Lin ‘an is not bad. When he first met him, he was still a small Constable in Changle County. It’s all because of my hard work to raise him to such an outstanding level.”
“How did you get to know a junior Constable?” noble Consort Chen asked in surprise.
“Aiya, don’t mind the details. In any case, the talent that I’ve cultivated saved brother Crown Prince, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes, it’s all thanks to Lin ‘an. This time, without the help of the people trained by Lin’ an, your Crown Prince brother would be in danger.” Noble Consort Chen pinched her daughter’s chubby, oval-shaped face.
……..
In the side hall, Xu Qi ‘an was sitting on a chair, holding a teacup in his hand and blowing on it gently.
Even if the tea of this jingxiu Palace was used to entertain guests, it was far more mellow and fragrant than the good tea that his aunt collected.
“But compared to the tea that Lin an drank just now, it is much worse. Later ask Lin ‘an for a few taels of tea and let second Shu, aunty and the rest have a taste of the tribute.”
Xu Qi ‘an thought to himself and took a sip of the wine. He then looked at the young eunuch standing beside him and smiled.
“Little eunuch, you were sent by the Emperor to monitor me. In official terms, you are an Imperial envoy. Sit, sit, don’t just stand there.”
The young eunuch was quite knowledgeable. He said helplessly, “”Out of the capital, that is the Imperial envoy. This servant is still in the palace and is still a servant, just like those Imperial inspectors. They are awe-inspiring outside but when they return to the capital, they are just a small imperial censor.”
Xu Qi ‘an laughed at her words. you’re so good at it.
If provincial governor Zhang were to return to the capital, he would be a younger brother. Outside, he was awe-inspiring, and even big shots like the chief governor and the chief commander had to be respectful and call themselves a lower official.
“That’s right, little eunuch, you’re a servant in His Majesty’s Palace, right?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
The little eunuch nodded.
“Yesterday, after little eunuch finished his report, His Majesty went to the Empress’s Feng Qi Palace?”
There was a question that Xu Qi ‘an had kept in his heart for a long time. Yesterday, they had found out about Huang xiaorou’s relationship with the Empress from the crab Pavilion. The clues began to point to the Empress, but the income and expenditure records of the Imperial pharmacy had been quietly torn up, so there was no conclusive evidence to prove that the Empress had saved Huang xiaorou.
With Emperor yuanjing’s wisdom and shrewdness, he should not have questioned the Empress in such a hurry before the case was clear.
If Emperor Yuan jing was really such an impulsive and brainless person, he should have directly dethroned the Crown Prince after the crown prince’s case.
“No…” The young eunuch shook his head and hesitated for a moment. He then said in a low voice, ”
“It was noble Consort Chen who went to His Majesty’s sleeping Palace to cry and complain, accusing the Empress of framing the Crown Prince. His Majesty thought of his relationship with the noble consort and went to Feng Qi Palace to question the Empress. It was also at that time that this servant was called by His Majesty for questioning. At that time, this servant had not taken the initiative to report.”
How did noble Consort Chen know about the progress of the case?
Needless to say, it must have been framed. When the brat saw that there was a breakthrough in the case and she was one step closer to being the Crown Prince, she happily went to her mother to share the joy.
As they were chatting, a woman in a Lotus Green Palace dress crossed the threshold and entered the side hall.
She had delicate features, fair skin, and was about twenty-four to twenty-five years of age. Her eyes were round and almond-shaped, just like li Caiwei’s, but not as big.
Chu Caiwei’s big eyes reminded Xu Qi ‘an of a 2d wife made of paper.
Coupled with her round oval face, she was sweet and cute. She was worthy of the title of big-eyed cute girl.
This Palace maid entered the side hall and gracefully bowed, saying, “”Greetings, Lord Xu.”
“Sister lang ‘er.” Xu Qi ‘an returned the greeting with a smile.
