Chapter 164 I heard that Prince Qi’s Mansion is going to catch ghosts?
"People from the Dark Night Palace of the Xiao Kingdom!"
Fang Qingqing and Li Zhenting shouted almost at the same time!
It’s the Night Palace again!
"Midnight Palace?"
Chang Tianli was horrified. The Mingye Palace has always been elusive and anyone who attacks them will die. How could the princess and the prince provoke them?
"Princess, Princess, please help me detoxify. I have told you everything I know. Please save my life..."
Seeing Fang Qingqing and the others walking out quickly, Liu Fugui became obviously anxious. He crawled towards them and shouted loudly.
"Haha, there's no poison in the wine you drank. The reason you have a stomachache is because you drank too much on an empty stomach. It will get better after a while."
"You are an accomplice to the evil and helped Fang Yuming to frame me. You are guilty of a capital crime but you can't escape punishment even if you are spared! What kind of sentence will you receive and when you can be released? Just wait for the decision of the Minister of the Temple."
Fang Qingqing said coldly without even turning her head, and carefully supported Li Zhenting as they walked out.
"Thanks to the princess's clever plan, I've racked my brains these past two days trying to interrogate Liu Fugui! He insisted that Prince Yu had someone kill Liu Fugui that day, and there's no other clue!
If he insists on insisting on this, the matter will come to a standstill. Even if the prince and princess can avoid imprisonment with the emperor's grace, I'm afraid the pressure from public opinion will be even greater..."
As the saying goes, when you seem to have no way out, you will find another village. Today, the princess unexpectedly learned that the murderer of Fang Yuming was actually someone else. This immediately made him feel much more relaxed, and the frown that had been furrowed for days finally eased.
"Recently, chaos has broken out in many parts of the Great Yan Nation. Skull symbols have been seen everywhere, causing widespread panic. Even traces of them have been found in the Heavenly Prison. It seems the Dark Night Palace is attempting to create widespread chaos."
"By the way, I heard that the haunting incidents in Prince Qi's palace have been getting worse recently. At midnight today, the palace eunuchs will be hunting ghosts in Prince Qi's mansion. I wonder if this incident is related to the Mingye Palace..."
There was such a lively event tonight? Fang Qingqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Thank you, Lord Chang, for catching the murderer of Mingye Palace and explaining the matter to the people. I am a little sleepy and will return to Ningxin Courtyard to rest first."
Fang Qingqing smiled and said goodbye politely, then walked back with Li Zhenting.
Along the way, Li Zhenting remained silent and did not respond even when Fang Qingqing teased him deliberately.
It was not until they returned to Ningxin Courtyard and sat down that Li Zhenting raised his lifeless eyes and looked at her.
"Qing'er, the reason why our father allowed us to live in Ningxin Courtyard was to use his grace to help us avoid imprisonment. Now that we have been cleared of suspicion of murder, we should move back to the palace."
Fang Qingqing couldn't help but smile, and playfully grabbed his big hand, deliberately scratching his palm with her hand.
"Why, are you worried that I might hurt the baby in your womb if I go to Prince Qi's mansion to catch ghosts tonight? We can skip it at other times, but we have to go tonight! The Lu family has committed many evil deeds, and now we have witnesses and evidence. It's time to close the net!"
"Due to my father's favor, the fact that Lü Shufang had an affair and that Li Huating is not the emperor's son cannot be made public. Therefore, the matter of the great monk Yuan Zhen cannot be brought up either. Now, if we want to directly bring down the Lü family, we still need the most favorable opportunity..."
"How about we stage a trick to lure the snake out of its hole tonight... I know why Lu Shufang didn't catch the ghost earlier or later, but at this moment? She must be thinking of using this opportunity to hurt us..."
When Li Zhenting heard this, he hurriedly held her hand tightly in his.
"Since you know tonight is bound to be full of dangers, why bother insisting on joining in the fun! Now..."
"Qing'er, you are not alone now. You are carrying our child..."
Fang Qingqing smiled and imitated his tone, her eyebrows and eyes curved and her body trembled with laughter.
"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Lv Shufang has been planning to kill me for a long time, so how could she miss this good opportunity..."
As the two were talking, they heard someone outside reporting something.
"Eunuch Zhao has arrived..."
As he was speaking, Eunuch Zhao came trotting in.
"This old servant pays homage to Prince Yu and Princess Yu..."
"Please stand up quickly, sir. We youngsters cannot bear such heavy gifts..."
Fang Qingqing hurriedly helped Eunuch Zhao up.
Eunuch Zhao had been castrated and accompanying Prince Jiajing since he was six or seven years old. He accompanied him from the time he was a prince until he became the king of a country. He made great contributions.
Growing from a small eunuch to the head of the eunuchs, he was surrounded by temptations of beauty and money. Naturally, the Lu family did not try to win him over. However, he always stayed true to his heart and was not tempted by money and beauty. He is truly admirable.
Eunuch Zhao looked at Prince Yu with eyes full of heartache and asked cautiously.
"Princess Yu's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. Prince Yu's injuries must have improved..."
"Thank you for your concern, eunuch. I'm much better now..."
Li Zhenting had no choice but to speak politely.
"Very good, very good. I told the Emperor that there's no need to worry too much about Prince Yu. With the Princess here, there's no illness that can't be cured. It's just a matter of time..."
"Oh, right, the Emperor is worried about Prince Yu. He's been in constant turmoil lately, so he even asked the palace's Taichang to divine for Prince Yu. The divination showed that Prince Yu and the princess might be facing bad luck. Coincidentally, a meteor fell in the southwest, and the Emperor was extremely worried. So, he followed Concubine De's advice and went to Prince Qi's mansion tonight to ask the Taichang to exorcise the evil spirit..."
When Fang Qingqing heard this, she couldn't help but look at Li Zhenting and smiled meaningfully.
Look, the seemingly peaceful Ningxinyuan has been noticed by many people. I am afraid that if they don’t show up on time tonight, even bigger twists and turns may occur.
"Thank you for your concern, eunuch. Thank you for your hard work. Please tell my father that we will arrive at Prince Qi's mansion on time at midnight tonight..."
Fang Qingqing bowed and casually took out a handful of golden melon seeds from her wide sleeves and handed them to Eunuch Zhao.
"This, this, Princess, I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it, this is what this old slave should do..."
Eunuch Zhao nodded repeatedly in gratitude, and his admiration for Princess Yu increased even more.
Princess Yu and Princess Yuanqi, Nangong Yan, were both daughters of Nangong Xun, but their ways of speaking and acting were quite different. Princess Yu was open and honest, graceful and generous, and deeply loved by the eunuchs and maids in the harem. Although Princess Yu was deeply favored by the Emperor, she never put on airs and always spoke respectfully to him.
But Nangong Yan had called him a eunuch more than once in front of him. She deserved to be married off to Wanyan Honglie as a concubine! Apart from anything else, the strong, stinky smell from Wanyan Honglie was enough to suffocate her to death!
"Princess, I'm worried about tonight's trip. I'm afraid it won't be peaceful. If not, Princess, please report to the Emperor on the grounds of poor health. The Emperor will surely be understanding and understanding..."
Just as Fang Qingqing was seeing Eunuch Zhao off, the old eunuch turned around and whispered something in a low voice.
He was really afraid that something would happen again. Now that Prince Yu was injured, Princess Yu couldn't afford to get into trouble again.
"Don't worry, Eunuch. Qing'er will protect herself and the prince..."
Haha, she wants to see how capable Lu Shufang is, so just come at her!
