The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill
Chapter 99 You Used Me
When she arrived at the palace, Li Qingqian discovered that she was assigned to stay in the Queen's Fengyi Palace, with her room next to the Fifth Princess'.
She felt a little strange. The Fifth Princess was older than her, but she had not moved out of Fengyi Palace yet.
Li Qingqian glanced at the fifth princess's chamber. He had also lived in Fengyi Palace in his previous life, but he had always used this room to store things.
Since the Fifth Princess has not moved out of Fengyi Palace until now, where did she go later? She disappeared as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth.
"A Qian, you're here?" Jiang Huairong came back to the yard with his maid, holding a box of snacks in his hand and said to her with a smile.
Li Qingqian bowed to her with a smile, still full of doubts in her heart: "Your humble servant Li Qingqian wishes the Fifth Princess well."
Jiang Huairong walked up to her, took her hand and walked towards her room, saying, "You came at the right time. I just happened to bring your favorite chestnut cake from the kitchen. Come and try it quickly."
Li Qingqian was urged by her to eat a piece and found something wrong.
Ordinary chestnut cakes are usually sweet, but Li Qingqian doesn’t like chestnut cakes that are too sweet. Instead, she prefers salty chestnut cakes.
Only Yunyi knew about this hidden preference. Even her grandmother and Yunshang didn't know about it. How did the Fifth Princess know about it?
So she smiled and tried to test him: "Princess, you know my preferences so well. It must be because Chang Yun mentioned them to you, right?"
It seemed that Jiang Huairong's face always looked bad when Shen Changyun was mentioned, but she still smiled, "Yes, he knows you so well, and I can also learn about your preferences from him."
Li Qingqian carefully observed Jiang Huairong's expression and found that the other party did not seem to be lying.
But I like salty chestnut cake because after being sent to a country village, I no longer like sweet food.
Now, besides herself, the only one who knows about this is Yunyi. How could Shen Changyun know about it? How could he tell the Fifth Princess?
Jiang Huairong frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong, don't you like it?"
Li Qingqian smiled and said, "No, I like it very much. Thank you, Princess."
Seeing that she liked it, Jiang Huairong finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Didn't I tell you? When we're in private, just call me Huairong."
"Huai Rong," Li Qingqian curled her lips slightly, "We are friends, right?"
"It's natural."
"Since we're friends, can you do me a favor?"
Facing Li Qingqian's hopeful expression, Jiang Huairong agreed immediately, "Okay, what do you need me to do for you?"
Li Qingqian curled her lips slightly, "There will be a lantern banquet on the first night of February, I want to go and see it."
In his previous life, Shen Changyun rode his horse through the streets during the Lantern Festival. No matter what he was thinking, he had to stop him in this life no matter what.
Jiang Huairong's eyes dimmed a little, "The Lantern Banquet..."
She remembered that she went to the Zichen Palace to see her father early yesterday morning.
At that time, his elder brother had just finished discussing matters with his father in the Purple Palace. When he heard his request, before his father could say anything, he spoke up to stop him, saying that this was not a good idea.
Of course he knew what he was thinking, but he had always been on the same side as Shen Changyun. When it came to Li Qingqian, he never cared about the feelings of his sister and only sided with Shen Changyun.
But Jiang Huairong still insisted on making this request to Emperor Hexi. The reason for convincing Emperor Hexi was simple: Li Qingqian had lost his biological mother since he was young, so he must have always restrained his temper.
But she is about to marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. If she continues to be so cautious, she will inevitably lose the demeanor of a lady of a noble family. So, we will take the opportunity of bringing her into the palace to get married to teach her some etiquette.
Once she brought up this argument, Jiang Huaijing couldn't find any reason to refute it, but he knew the real purpose of Jiang Huairong's request. He was anxious but couldn't persuade his sister whom he had loved since childhood.
After receiving the imperial edict, Jiang Huairong raised it proudly towards him and said, "It is inconvenient for me to leave the palace. I would like to ask my royal brother to go to the Li Mansion in person to read the imperial edict."
Jiang Huaijing looked at her helplessly. He knew that she was sure that Li Qingqian would let Shen Changyun go back after arriving at the Li Mansion, so she wanted to take this opportunity to let him read the imperial edict.
By that time, even if Shen Changyun knew about it, it would be a done deal.
But Jiang Huairong miscalculated. She didn't know that there was another Jiang Lin in Li Mansion who blocked her plan.
Shen Changyun still knew about it in advance and came to the palace to cause trouble for her.
Jiang Huairong shrugged, but who made her a princess, the daughter of the empress? Even if Shen Changyun knew what she was thinking, what if he was angry about her behavior?
You still can't do anything to yourself.
Jiang Huairong came back to his senses from his memories, looked at Li Qingqian, and said after a while: "I think you haven't left the house in the past few years, you must be too pent up. Well, I will take you out to play secretly when the time comes."
From an angle that she wasn't noticing, a hint of triumph flashed across Li Qingqian's eyes.
However, I don't think these days in the palace while waiting to get married will be too boring.
*
However, in the next few days, the closer Li Qingqian got to the truth, the more panicked he felt.
So this is ah.
Early in the morning of February 1st, Jiang Huairong came to her room, "Ah Qian, are you ready? We should go."
Li Qingqian had just finished washing up. She glanced out the window and asked, "Doesn't the Lantern Festival start after the sun sets?"
Besides, leaving the palace now would be too obvious, right?
Jiang Huairong scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I seldom leave the palace either. I am curious about what is happening outside, so I am going out to take a look. Don't worry, I borrowed the carriage from the East Palace from my brother, and my father and mother will not know."
Do you rarely leave the palace? Li Qingqian sneered in her heart.
She raised the corner of her mouth, "Okay, then Princess, can you wait for me outside the screen first? I still have some things to pack."
Jiang Huairong smiled and said meaningfully: "Then you should pack up the things that are important to you as soon as possible, and don't leave anything behind."
Li Qingqian smiled and nodded.
But after Jiang Huairong walked out of the screen, he whispered to Yun Yi beside him: "Is everything arranged?"
Yun Yi nodded, "The Crown Princess has already arranged for the Imperial Guards to protect the princess in secret, don't worry young lady."
After sitting in the carriage of the East Palace, Li Qingqian pointed at Jiang Huairong's sleeve pockets and the purse on her waist with curiosity and asked, "It seems that the princess wants to buy a lot of things, but is it inconvenient to carry so much silver?"
Jiang Huairong smiled mysteriously: "This is my first time hanging out with you, so I naturally have to bring more money. I heard from my brother that the Spring Market is open, and I really want to go and see it."
The Spring Market is in the eastern suburbs, and you will pass by Changming Tower on the way.
It was noon when Changming Tower gradually appeared in front of the two of them.
Li Qingqian covered her stomach and said, "Huairong, I'm a little hungry. Didn't you say before that you wanted to go to Changminglou to play? Why don't we have dinner at Changminglou before leaving? Anyway, it's still early before the sun sets."
Jiang Huairong didn't really want to stop, but she didn't want to disappoint Li Qingqian, so she smiled and agreed, "Okay then."
What surprised her was that when she followed Li Qingqian on a boat to the small island in the center of Qingyu Lake, she saw Song Ningyan waiting there from afar.
Song Ningyan didn't seem surprised to see Jiang Huairong. Instead, she smiled and said to her, "A Qian told me a long time ago that she would bring you here to play, so I have been preparing for it."
Jiang Huairong looked at Li Qingqian with some surprise. It turned out that she had always been planning to go out and play with him?
The three of them came to the private room that Song Ningyan had prepared early in the morning. In addition to having lunch, they even sat there until the sun set.
At first Jiang Huairong didn't understand why Li Qingqian stayed for so long, but soon someone cleared up the mystery for her.
Suddenly, a tall woman hurriedly walked in from outside the door and said to Li Qingqian, "Miss, something happened to Master Shen."
Jiang Huairong suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and was about to pull Li Qingqian, but she stood up first.
Li Qingqian instructed Yun Yi who followed him, "Hurry up and notify the Yulin Guards to escort the princess back. Yun Wu, follow me."
After saying that, he took the woman and walked quickly out of Changming Tower.
Jiang Huairong hadn't reacted yet. Why did the Yulin Guards follow him out?
Yunyi went out immediately, and when he came back he actually brought back a few Yulin Guards.
"Princess, please follow me back to the palace."
Jiang Huairong couldn't believe it. He looked out the window and saw Li Qingqian running towards where Shen Changyun was. He murmured, "Qian, you used me..."
Jiang Huairong was sent back to the palace.
Song Ningyan also followed what Li Qingqian had instructed her before and opened the door of Li Qingqian's room in Changming Tower, waiting there for Shen Changyun who might be injured.
Li Qingqian hurried to the place where Shen Changyun had the accident, and asked Yunwu, "Did you see clearly? Did he really have the accident while riding a horse?"
Yun Wu shook her head, "I'm not sure either, but there was a thief on that street, and Master Shen chased him on horseback, and then there was a bit of an unusual commotion. I dare not make a definitive statement, but I can't hide it from the young lady."
Soon, Li Qingqian came to the street and looked everywhere for Shen Changyun, but no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't find Shen Changyun.
