Planning to marry the third master

Despite such an offense, Yang Ji was not angry. Instead, he laughed and said, "Is this Xie San's wife?"

Prince Hui nodded and said, "Yes."

"Courageous."

Prince Hui did not respond. He did not like this woman. Not only did she ruin his plan, but now because of this woman, he and Xie San could not go back. Today, she was standing on the opposite side of him. This woman was simply his nemesis.

Concubine De continued, "We must clarify the matter. The crux of this matter lies with this maid."

The maid didn't know what to say at this moment, so she asked for help: "Princess, save me."

Everyone was puzzled, how could this person be Gu Pingting's man. It was impossible for her to drug the princess. Feng Zhuohua was not around, so Concubine De took the initiative to ask, "You are the princess's man, did you hide it from the princess on weekdays and want to harm the princess?"

The maid looked at Gu Pingting and shook her head, saying, "Princess, I had already served the tea, and then I was knocked unconscious, and when I woke up I was tied up."

De Fei heard the crux of the matter and asked, "Who did you give the tea to?"

The maid shook her head, seeming to find it difficult to speak.

Concubine De said coldly: "Tell me quickly, or I'll take you to the Ministry of Justice!"

The maid looked at Gu Pingting. It was neither right nor wrong to say anything at this point.

Prince Hui frowned, feeling that Gu Pingting had done something stupid again.

Gu Pinting also had a complicated expression. It would be disadvantageous for her to say it or not. Yang Ji said in a deep voice: "Speak!"

The maid's shoulders trembled, and she said tremblingly: "It was obviously the general's wife that I sent."

After saying that, I felt even more scared.

Concubine De looked at her coldly and said angrily: "Tell me, who ordered you to do this!"

The maid looked at Gu Pingting, who gave her a sharp look. The maid immediately said, "No one instructed me to do this. Yes, I acted on my own initiative to vent the princess's anger."

Concubine De slammed the table and said, "Come here, beat him to death. He did something dirty in Prince Yan's mansion. He is going to ruin Prince Yan! Amitabha, luckily he is fine, otherwise I will not be able to give an explanation to General Qilin."

Lu Jiang came up and tried to drag people away, but the maid begged for help: "Princess, Princess, save me!"

Gu Pingting said, "Wait, I was the one who made the Chinese medicine, and I was also the one who was killed. What does it have to do with my maid?"

The victim was Gu Pinting, but by this time, Concubine De had already guessed the cause and effect. Perhaps the person Gu Pinting wanted to harm was Feng Zhuohua, but she failed to harm him and was instead retaliated against.

At this moment, he looked at Gu Pingting without any sympathy, and said to Gu Pingting: "Princess, don't treat the people here as fools."

Then he said to Lu Jiang, "Go, beat him to death, so that he will remember this lesson."

The nanny said, "Today is a big day, please don't pollute Prince Yan's mansion."

The maid was dragged away by Lu Jiang.

The maid begged for mercy but her mouth was blocked.

Defei had a headache and turned away. No wonder Feng Zhuohua was so angry. Her words today were sharper than before. If she met him, she would probably retaliate. This was still considered light.

The guests in front didn't know what was going on yet, Gu Xingyan was toasting with a cheerful face. Several people from the Baili family helped Gu Xingyan block the wine, it was really lively.

Some came to watch the fun, some said good things, and Gu Xingyan responded to them all.

A female guest wanted to go back first, so the people from the patrol camp confronted the armored soldiers outside. The armored soldiers wanted to fight at first, but after a few words to the deputy general who was in the lead, the confrontation was gone.

Whose territory is this? Under the emperor's feet, even the most powerful generals are still subjects. It's also Prince Yan's wedding. If you don't want the emperor and his subjects to be in conflict, you'd better think it through.

Feng Zhuohua and his uncle's mother saw them off themselves, and no one among the guests noticed anything unusual. In such an occasion, it was a great achievement that no scandal was leaked.

At this time, there were only four people in the hall, including Meng Qingwan, and no outsiders. Prince Hui looked at Gu Pingting with a cold face and blamed her, "Can you please make me worry less?"

Gu Pingting burst into tears and said, "Brother, I am already in this state, and you still come to scold me. I won't live anymore."

Yang Ji said: "But you are resentful because Xie San's wife stole your ideal husband."

Yang Ji knew Gu Pingting's thoughts a long time ago. He also knew that Gu Xinghui intended his sister to marry such a man. He did not ask why it did not work out. Now it seems that Gu Pingting did not let it go and instead held a grudge.

Gu Pingting cried, "I want her to die. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have fallen to this point."

Yang Ji frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Tell me why you lost your title of princess."

Gu Pingting said: "It was she who ruined Third Brother's plan."

Prince Hui looked around, and Meng Qingwan listened with a frown. There were some things he didn't want Meng Qingwan to know, so he said, "This is not the place to talk, let's talk about it when we get back."

Meng Qingwan and Gu Xinghui made eye contact. The defensive look clearly treated her as an outsider. She stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I will return home first."

Gu Xinghui nodded and said, "Okay."

It seemed that they were treating each other with respect, but Meng Qingwan couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. After several years of getting along, was it possible that she was still an outsider in his heart?

As soon as Meng Qingwan left, Gu Xinghui also left with Yang Ji and Gu Pingting. After all, this was not their own residence.

In winter, night comes early. When it gets dark, many guests have already had their fun and start to leave one by one. Baili Jilin helps to see them off, which is a great honor for the Minister of Personnel.

Feng Zhuohua waited for all the guests to leave and watched the servants help clean up the leftovers.

The eldest aunt did not expect Feng Zhuohua to be so capable, and she arranged the following matters in an orderly manner. Thinking that Concubine De would stay at Prince Yan's mansion today, she took Feng Zhuohua to Concubine De's place to rest.

Defei had just met her new bride and was very satisfied. She quickly forgot about the unpleasant things she had today.

When he saw Feng Zhuohua, he stretched out his hand and asked her to sit next to him.

Feng Zhuohua did not hesitate and sat down next to Concubine De and said, "I didn't expect that Concubine De would not return to the palace today."

Concubine De whispered, "As for me, I have long wanted to live out my old age outside the palace. Now I am afraid that this wish cannot be realized. This rare day makes me very happy."

This statement contained a lot of information. If one cannot live out of the palace, then he must live in the palace. Who can live in the palace? One is the childless concubine, and the other is the queen mother. Feng Zhuohua curved her lips and said, "At that time, they often stayed out of the palace for a while. I think Prince Yan was also very happy."

"It's not that easy. If you often leave the palace, you will be criticized by those people in the harem." She held Feng Zhuohua's hand, as if to comfort him, and said, "Today is all thanks to you. What you did today made me feel happy and proud. My Baili family is all thanks to you and your wife."

Feng Zhuohua did not dare to take credit for it, and said: "Madam Defei, you are too kind. The Baili family has always had capable people, and Baili Jilin is the role model of the family."

Concubine De nodded and said, "I didn't expect that in just a few years, the Baili family would rise again in Bianjing. In the future, Yan'er, I will be relieved to have you and your brother with me."

Feng Zhuohua didn't respond and didn't know how to respond, so he lowered his eyes.

The eldest aunt changed the subject and asked, "Have you seen the bride?"

Speaking of this, Concubine De said happily: "This princess made a good choice. Yan'er is very satisfied with herself."

Talking about these two people, the aunt was also happy. When she talked about the little expressions of the two after being slapped, she made everyone laugh.

Huiwang Mansion

Since there were no outsiders around at the moment, Yang Ji asked what had happened, most importantly how could she lose her title of princess.

In this matter, Prince Hui and Gu Pingting agreed and blamed Feng Zhuohua for the crime.

It was she who ruined the plan, it was she who made Xie Yunxiao at odds with him, and it was she who made Xie Yunxiao stand on the opposite side of Prince Hui's Mansion.

Yang Ji narrowed his eyes and thought that such a woman could not be kept.

In his impression, Xie Yunxiao and Gu Xinghui have a deep friendship, and Xie Yunxiao is Gu Xinghui's best right-hand man. As long as he is there, everything will be in his pocket in Bianjing City.

Indeed, the entire Bianjing was already in Xie San's pocket. The defense of the capital, the patrol camp, and the Jinwu Guard, this was such a huge power. How much did the emperor trust someone to hand over Bianjing to one person? He said, "That won't work, Xie San, I must submit to you. A hundred officials are not as good as Xie San alone."

Gu Xinghui didn't know why it had come to this, and said, "He values ​​that woman more than me." After saying that, he held his forehead with his hand. Xie Yunxiao had become the person who gave him the most headaches.

Gu Pingting said: "Brother, make that woman disappear. If she is not around, it won't ruin your plans."

Yang Ji thought it was feasible.

Gu Xinghui shook his head and said, "I know Xie San. Once that woman dies, Xie San will guess that it's me. Then the person he wants to kill will be me."

"He dares!"

Gu Xinghui said: "Don't touch that woman."

Yang Ji said, "Then invite that woman to the North Camp. Don't you care about this woman? I have plenty of ways to deal with Xie San."

Gu Xinghui looked up, thinking that this might be a good idea, as it would be a good way to control Xie Yunxiao. He nodded and said, "In that case, we will discuss it in detail."

Yang Ji said, "It won't last long. I came here to seek justice for Pingting. Pingting will come with me to the palace tomorrow."

Gu Pingting began to cry again and said, "Emperor Father is not as good to us as Uncle."

Yang Ji said, "Your mother died early, how can I not take care of you? You are all princes and princesses, I don't think anyone dares to treat you badly, not even the emperor."

Gu Pingting couldn't help but throw herself into Yang Ji's arms and cry, feeling extremely aggrieved.
