After redemption, he took away the luck of the future queen

Chapter 173 No one can be sure until the end

Sitting on the carriage back to Yushan County, Pian Hui raised the curtains and admired the scenery outside the window. She always felt that the journey would not be peaceful, otherwise Princess Linglong would not come to see her off.

Whether Princess Linglong's closeness will be good or bad for her, she will wait and see.

At noon, the convoy stopped at the foot of a mountain with pleasant scenery to rest.

Pian He, Cheng Zhidong's mother Xie and his sister Cheng Yunyun were sitting together to rest, drinking tea and eating snacks. When they looked up, they saw a group of carriages approaching.

The carriage Kankan stopped at the place where Pian He and his party rested.

After the carriage stopped, a head popped out of the window and asked when he saw Pian He.

"Are you Pian Luo, Princess Linglong's adopted sister?"

Pian Huan was slightly startled and looked down at herself. Is she so recognisable?

Obviously sitting next to her was Cheng Zhidong's sister Cheng Yunyun. They were about the same age. Why did the visitor recognize her at a glance?

Pian He was very puzzled and just stared blankly at the maid who asked her question.

"Asking you? Why didn't you reply?" The maid's tone was quite unkind, slandering Pian Huan who was once a maid. After her redemption, her step sister who became the princess was pretending to be aloof, arrogant and rude. She was really overestimating her abilities. .

Hearing the maid ask her this, Pian He knew that she was in trouble.

Sure enough, he saw a beautiful woman stepping out of the carriage.

This woman's steps are light, her temperament is excellent, her facial features are beautiful, her nose is high and her eyebrows are dark and clear-cut. She is truly a rare beauty.

The first thing the woman did after getting out of the car was to glare at her maid, in order to ask the maid to be respectful and polite to Pian Huo, who was Princess Linglong's foster sister.

The maid received her gaze, immediately lowered her head, obediently stepped out of the carriage, and served the woman respectfully.

Xie saw Wang Qingzhu, the granddaughter of Duke Fu, one of the two great princes in the capital, stepping out of the carriage. It seemed that she was also looking for Pian He. She hurriedly leaned into Pian He's ear and told Pian He the identity of the woman.

"Pian He's niece, she is Wang Qingzhu, the direct granddaughter of Duke Fu."

Pian Huan was stunned after hearing this. The Fuguo Palace is Concubine Shu's natal family. What does Concubine Shu's niece Wang Qingzhu want to do with her?

She didn't believe it was a chance encounter.

What a coincidence.

Wang Qingzhu smiled at Mrs. Xie, and then said: "Sister Pianheng, Mrs. Cheng, what a coincidence. I met you here. It just so happened that I was going to Xijun Fucheng to visit my aunt. How about we go on the road together? It would be nice to have each other on the road. Take care of.”

Pian He was silent in his heart, what a coincidence.

Wang Qingzhu's great-aunt is actually in Xijun Fucheng, but she is hitching a ride. She can't give her a nod, it depends on what Xie and Cheng Linwen want.

Pian Huan stood there silently, waiting for Xie to speak.

Seeing that Pian He didn't reply to the young lady's words, his attitude was arrogant and rude, and the maid standing aside began to curse again. The young lady was so polite to a person who was born as a maid, she just bought him directly. Maybe the other party would like to sell himself to the Fuguo Duke's house to enjoy the life. Qingfu.

Xie's mind was extremely clear. When she saw that Wang Qingzhu's maid was hostile to Pian He, she didn't even think about it. The maid's hostility came from her master Wang Qingzhu.

Wang Qingzhu has no good intentions towards Pian Huan.

Naturally, she could also see that Princess Linglong personally went to the city gate to see Pian Huo off, just to support Pian Huo and to ask her to take more care of Pian Huo and send Pian Huo safely back to Yushan County.

In fact, even without Princess Linglong's overt or covert indication, since Pian He was the master's and son's business partner, she would naturally take more care of him and bring Pian He back safely. This was not a big deal, it was just a matter of convenience.

With her here, I believe Wang Qingzhu would not dare to come.

Mrs. Xie also smiled at Wang Qingzhu, took a step forward and stood in front of Pian He, and said generously: "Miss Wang, we happen to be traveling on the same road, so let's go together. You are right. We will take care of each other on the road, which is better than nothing." powerful."

To be honest, Dongsheng Restaurant's motorcade returns to the capital and Yushan County twice a year, and in some years even three times. They are very familiar with this route and do not need the care of Duke Fu Guo's Mansion at all. She is just as good as taking care of Duke Fu Guo's Mansion.

"Okay." Wang Qingzhu smiled brightly at Xie again, and the corner of her eye never left Pianhan.

After resting for a while, everyone got on the carriage again and continued on their way, followed closely by the carriage convoy of the Fuguogong Palace.

In the evening, when they arrived at the inn where they rested, everyone got off the carriage. With the help of the maid, Wang Qingzhu walked to Pian He and said enthusiastically: "Sister Pian He, sleep in the same room with me tonight. I want to talk to you about something thoughtful." My own words."

Pian He was stunned after hearing this. They were not familiar with each other. They had just met, and the other party's request was very unreasonable.

She didn't want to sleep in the same room or bed with a stranger, but she also wanted to know the other person's purpose of approaching her, so she suggested: "Ms. Wang, I don't sleep well, and I'm afraid that it will disturb your rest at night. Why don't I sleep tomorrow?" How about we share a carriage? That way we can still talk to each other."

Sharing a carriage with others is acceptable.

Wang Qingzhu was not annoyed at all when she was rejected by Pian Huan, and accepted Pian Huan's proposal: "That's fine, sister Pian Huan, see you tomorrow."

As long as she could achieve her goal, to be honest, she didn't want to sleep in the same room or bed with strangers at night.

Before going to bed, Ms. Xie sent a maid next to her to send a message to Pian He, telling her to be careful about Wang Qingzhu.

Pian Huan was silent, rewarded the maid with a handful of copper coins, and asked the maid to thank her for the reminder.

Early the next morning.

At dawn, everyone hurriedly ate breakfast and set off.

Before setting off, Ms. Xie walked up to Pian Hao and greeted Pian Hao in a very intimate manner. The two of them talked and laughed.

Wang Qingzhu walked over slowly, exchanged greetings with Mrs. Xie, and personally invited Pian Huan to ride in a carriage with her.

Pian He smiled at Xie, reassured her, and then got into the carriage of Duke Fuguo.

Wang Qingzhu looked at Pian Huan sitting opposite her in confusion.

She was puzzled to understand how a common girl who was born as a maid could get into the relationship with the prince and Prince Rong, follow them to the capital, and get the care of the two princesses.

On the way back home, Mr. Xie showed great concern for her again, and the two of them were quite familiar with each other.

You know, the Xie family is a wealthy family, and Taifu Xie is the emperor's teacher.

How can Pian He be so virtuous?

Wang Qingzhu really couldn't figure it out, but that was the fact. That day at Princess Yulong's mansion, her grandfather saw Pian Huan and Prince Rong standing together, looking very close to each other.

Zhilan Yushu, the king of Rongjun, is a figure who is like a banished immortal. Is Pian Huan worthy of standing with him?

She had liked Gu Jianxing since she was a child. Gu Jianxing was hers and belonged to her alone.

Grandfather also intended to marry her to Gu Jianxing.

On Daughter's Day, my grandfather became suspicious of Pian He. After he came back, he sent someone to check Pian He, but he didn't find much useful information. He only found out that Hu Mingyu came to provoke Pian He and that Pian He was once Hu Mingyu's maid. thing.

Therefore, my grandfather deliberately sent people to Xijun Fucheng and even Yushan County to check on Hu Pianxuan. My grandfather wanted to know how Hu Pianxuan got to know Prince Rong.

It happened that my grandfather heard my grandmother talking about her great-aunt whom she had not seen for many years, so my grandfather simply asked her to go to Xijun Fucheng to visit her great-aunt.

It stands to reason that the emperor should adopt Gu Jianyun, the youngest son of Prince Rui, and the courtiers thought so too.

Gu Jianyun was not weak yet, so he was put in front of the emperor to teach him so that he could be controlled more easily.

But what is unexpected is that the opposite is true. The emperor adopted Gu Jianli, the eldest son of Prince Rui.

As an adult, Gu Jianli already had his own opinions, which were difficult to control. The emperor knew this, but he still did so. There must be deep-seated reasons, which his grandfather also wanted to understand.

Prince Rui doted on his step-brother and was indifferent to the two sons left by the former princess. He only doted on his younger son Gu Jianyun.

Based on this alone, the emperor would not choose to adopt Gu Jianyun. He was worried that if Gu Jianyun was adopted and he still obeyed Prince Rui's orders in his heart, it would be underestimating the emperor's control.

Before the adopted prince Gu Jianli, Prince Rui died suddenly, which is the best proof.

Some people don't want Prince Rui to live. No matter whether it is Gu Jianyun or Gu Jianli who adopts him in the end, Prince Rui's fate is already decided.

This person is probably the emperor.

After the adoption was settled, Princess Rui also passed away.

This further confirmed my grandfather’s guess.

The person who doesn't want Princess Rui alive is probably not the emperor.

My grandfather never believed that Princess Rui died of illness due to longing for him, and neither did the emperor. However, the emperor turned a blind eye, further proving that there must be other reasons for the emperor to choose to adopt the current prince Gu Jianli. Rather than Gu Jianyun, who has better control.

At a time when the situation in the capital is turbulent and a major change is imminent, it is not an exaggeration to say that the waves are turbulent. The government of Fuguo wants to be independent in this change, but can it seize this opportunity, make a profit from the dragon, or stand on its side? It will definitely be beneficial to the position and the future of Fuguogongfu.

Although there is only one adopted prince under the emperor's knees, there are also variables. Until the last moment, who can guarantee that the only prince can successfully succeed to the throne.

This prince is not the emperor's biological son.

No one spoke in the carriage. Pian He felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Wang Qingzhu. Didn't he want to talk to her about something private? There wasn't a flower growing on her face. There was nothing strange or beautiful about it. If she didn't say anything, she wanted to get out of the car.
