Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 315 Wan Shufang’s explanation

The prince heard what the emperor meant and lowered his eyes to cover the shock in his eyes, but he respectfully replied: "Father, please give me your orders."

"The cry of a thief to catch a thief can often make a person ignore his own mistakes." The emperor said meaningfully.

The prince's expression changed: "Father, after all, Chen Changli is a general who has made great achievements in battle. He was wrongly accused this time..."

"Prince, are you so worried about Chen Changli?" The emperor interrupted the prince coldly.

"He is my friend." Listening to the emperor's question, the prince answered seriously.

"Friend? So you regard him as a friend. No wonder you are so anxious about his affairs." The emperor's tone was quite unclear.

The prince heard it. He didn't know what the emperor was thinking, and he didn't want to think about it at this time.

He just wanted to ensure that Chen Changli would be safe in prison and that the emperor's plan to catch a turtle in a jar would not harm him.

"Father, I am willing to risk my life just to catch Liu Feng." The prince suppressed all the emotions in his heart and spoke to the emperor in a very serious tone.

He was expressing his thoughts to the emperor in this way, hoping that the emperor could give him a chance to protect Chen Changli.

The emperor sighed softly: "I do as you wish, but Chen Changli is a smart man. He should know how to cooperate with you to let you find out what Liu Feng is doing in private."

The prince felt that the emperor's words had other meanings. After thinking about it for a while, he boldly said: "Father, I am willing to work with General Chen to find out this matter."

The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and his expression became fierce.

The prince secretly screamed that something was wrong, but he still maintained a calm and calm look on his face.

After half a cup of tea, the emperor directly asked the prince to deal with Liu Feng's affairs, and then went to the harem to visit Concubine Xue and others, and finally came to Xianfu Palace where Concubine De was.

When Concubine De heard that the emperor was coming, she stayed in the main hall waiting for him to come in as usual. As a result, the emperor only looked outside for a while and then returned directly to Tai Chi Hall.

When the palace maid ran in to report the matter, Concubine De couldn't believe it.

After confirming that the emperor really did not come to see her, Concubine De said indifferently: "I asked him how could he be in such a good mood? It turned out that he was just comforting his woman like before."

After taking a sip of tea, Concubine De looked at her maid with curiosity and asked with a smile: "How are the Queen and Concubine Xue? They must have been moved by His Majesty."

The palace maid knew that Concubine De hated the queen and Concubine Xue, so she immediately said: "I don't know what Concubine Xue is like, but the empress is indeed very happy. I heard that the empress is planning to copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for your majesty."

"It is true that only the queen can do something." Concubine De said with a half-smile, and then asked, "Who is investigating the assassin's case now? Your Majesty can enter the harem to comfort people, shouldn't the case have been investigated? Is it clear?"

Concubine De was indeed frightened when an assassin suddenly jumped out to kill the emperor.

However, when the emperor was rescued and Prince Duan took the opportunity to wrongly accuse Chen Changli, Concubine De's mind became active.

Unfortunately, the emperor reacted too quickly. Chen Changli was already imprisoned, and Wan Shufang and others returned home and were guarded by the imperial guards.

No matter how busy De Fei was, she could only suppress all her thoughts and go back to Xianfu Palace to cultivate.

Now that the emperor began to be active in the harem, Concubine De's suppressed thoughts came to life again.

The palace maid was Concubine De's confidant. She knew what Concubine De was most concerned about, and she immediately spoke: "The assassin's case was handed over to the prince and the Minister of Punishment. As for the extent of their investigation, I have no way to figure it out, but General Chen was also He is in prison, and the prince even met with His Majesty for him today, so I guess the prince has not made much progress."

Concubine De rubbed her knuckled fingers on the teacup for a while, then said with a smile: "The prince is a very nice person, but it's a pity that the queen doesn't care much about him at all."

"Chen Changli has a good relationship with the prince. Now that he has been wronged by King Duan, the prince will definitely find a way to clear his grievances."

"In that case, then you should pay more attention to the assassin's case in the future. Once there is any progress with the prince, you must tell me as soon as possible."

After explaining this sentence, Concubine De thought about it and said another sentence to the palace maid.

"Wan Shufang must be very worried about Chen Changli. Go see her and tell her that if she wants Chen Changli to live well, she must give me an answer now for what she told me before."

The palace maid responded and immediately left the palace and came to the general's mansion.

Wan Shufang arranged several children and waited in the lobby for the news that Yun Qiongying would bring back from the prince.

After waiting for a day and only receiving words of comfort from Yun Qiongying, Wan Shufang remained calm on the surface, but couldn't help but feel arrogant inside.

However, people in the General's Mansion were not allowed to go out at all. No matter how anxious Wan Shufang was, she could only place her hope on Yun Qiongying.

After that, Yun Qiongying went home, and Wan Shufang sat in the lobby thinking about various things.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wan Shufang was about to pack up her mood and go to the pharmacy to get some pills.

The arrival of the palace maid shocked and surprised her instantly.

She came to the door and looked out through the slit, and soon saw a handsome palace maid standing outside the door with her back straight.

"General's wife, this servant is the maid of Concubine De. I came out of the palace to see you today specifically to confirm your answer for Concubine De."

The palace maid felt that someone was staring at her from inside the door. She immediately saluted towards the door with a respectful attitude, and then expressed her purpose of coming in a gentle tone.

"Concubine De." Wan Shufang suppressed her uneasiness and asked puzzledly, "What answer does she want to confirm?"

The palace lady said without changing her expression: "Half a month ago, Concubine De and the general's wife met at the Songhua Pavilion in the palace."

Her words were a reminder. Wan Shufang quickly thought of it after hearing this. As her thoughts were turning, she said calmly: "I am willing to agree to Concubine De."

The palace maid took a step forward and approached the door, then lowered her voice and said: "My mother-in-law will be very happy to know the answer of the general's wife, but before that, the general's wife has to stay at the general's residence safely until the matter with General Chen is over. My mother-in-law will definitely find an opportunity to see you again."

After she said this, she said no more and turned around to leave.

She left very neatly. Wan Shufang watched her leave through the slit, and her brows twisted slightly unconsciously.

At this time, Chen Xiyun came to her and asked with concern: "Mom, what does Concubine De want from you? Why do you want to send someone to find you at this time?"

Wan Shufang took her to the pharmacy and said calmly: "She covets the reputation of the General's Mansion. I only cooperated with her because I thought she would help me."

"As for what her purpose is, I don't know, but I am certain that she will not do anything treacherous and the General's Mansion will not be implicated by her."

"So you don't have to worry about me, just focus on your own things like before."

Chen Xiyun raised her heart immediately after hearing this, and her tone became much faster: "But that is Concubine De, and His Majesty does not love her in general. If she has any thoughts, Your Majesty may misunderstand us."
