Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 40 What is he guarding against?
After the meal, Yu Qinghuan took a pot of wine and climbed to the eaves to watch the sunset.At this time, the clouds had burned half of the sky, and the thin afterglow fell, coating everything where the eyes touched with a golden edge.

She raised her hand to smooth her hair, slowly took a sip of the amber light from the pot, and gradually fell into a trance while looking into the distance.

The experiences of the past and present life flashed through her mind, and finally they were fixed on Changsun Tao's angry face - Changsun Tao became really angry twice, once when she mentioned the smell of Shuqingyuan's medicine, and once when she mentioned the smell of Shuqingyuan's medicine. It was she who touched the jade carved in the pattern of "dead wood blooming in spring".

These two times of anger were obviously different.

For the first time, Changsun Tao seemed to have been touched by some taboo, and showed his fangs at her like a beast being threatened.

The second time, Changsun Tao was like a child, carefully protecting the only candy.

What is he guarding against?What are you protecting?
"Oh~ I have a headache," Yu Qinghuan lay on the green glazed tiles, watching the sunset gradually disappear in the western sky, "Why is this man so difficult to understand?"

Huazhi is full of spring, and the heart of the sky is full of moon.

Yu Qinghuan climbed off the roof. After learning the lesson from last time, she didn't dare to let herself get drunk again.

"Miss," Xiao Qian came up to her, handed Yu Qinghuan a letter, and said with a smile, "Auntie has sent you a letter."

Yu Qinghuan took the letter, but did not open it in a hurry: "Who helped deliver this letter?"

Xiao Qian replied: "This is from your dowry servant Yu An. Before you got married, my aunt told my servant that this Yu An is reliable. My aunt suddenly sent a letter. Could something happen?"

"The letter said that my mother misses me very much and asked me to go back and read it when I have time." Yu Qinghuan opened the envelope, read it quickly, and said with a smile, "Put the letter away and put it in any box."

"Miss?" Xiao Qian took the letter and was a little confused. She didn't understand why Yu Qinghuan had such a reaction.

However, Lu Yi, who was working silently on the side, interrupted: "This letter was not written by my aunt."

Yu Qinghuan glanced at her unexpectedly, and Xiao Qian quickly said in surprise: "How do you know?"

Lu Yi rolled his eyes at Xiao Qian: "The beloved son of his parents must have a long-term plan. The princess has not yet established a firm foothold in Prince Qi's palace. How could my aunt write a letter asking her to go back? Isn't this an obvious way to give people something to talk about? Are you saying that the princess is pampered?"

"Lu Yi is right." Yu Qinghuan nodded in agreement and said casually, "Prepare a set of palace clothes for me. The more arrogant the color, the better."

Lu Yi asked: "Miss, are you going to enter the palace?"

Yu Qinghuan sat in front of the small table, grabbed the book on the table, and said casually: "It's not that I want to enter the palace, but that someone in the palace is about to see me."

Yu Qingwan had lost such a big face in Dingbei Hou Mansion. Yuan Shi must not be able to swallow this breath. The letter just now was most likely her fault.

According to Yuan's temperament, the letter must be a ploy to spread suspicion. She wanted to use her mother's affairs to make herself confused, and then find a way to give herself a fatal blow. Maybe Yuan had already sued the queen by now. went.Fengzao Palace.

Yu Qinghuan's expectation was good. As expected, Mrs. Yuan entered the palace overnight. As soon as she saw the queen, she started wiping her eyes: "Your Majesty, I don't want to live anymore!"

The queen opened the lid of the incense burner, took out the incense box, picked some incense with a silver spoon and poured it into the furnace. Wisps of green smoke curled up, covering the queen's face with a layer of gloom: "Sister, today's matter is this palace. I’ve heard about it all, but Yu Qinghuan is protected by Prince Qi, and I can’t do anything to her.”

Yuan's eyes were as cold as the ice in the far north: "After all, I am careless. When Yu Qinghuan was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was just a loser. Who would have thought that she was a wolf in sheep's clothing! How pitiful! My Qingwan was torn off by her, and no skin was left."

The queen hummed softly, and the air suddenly became cold: "Sister, let alone you, I was also deceived by her shameless face, and fell into her trap the first time we met."

Yuan held the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, and said sincerely: "Empress, please don't blame me for being too talkative. Yu Qinghuan is simply a recipe for disaster. Whoever touches her will be unlucky! But His Highness the Crown Prince seems to be on good terms with her. Recently, Qingwan said that he ran into her and His Highness alone in private. I have verified it and it is absolutely true! You said that if His Majesty knew about this, what would it be? His Highness, the Crown Prince, has a bright future and a beautiful person, how can he let such a beautiful person like this? Such vulgar rubble!"

The queen's sharp eyes caught Yuan's family, and she slowly showed a strange smile, just like a blood-red sun suddenly appeared after Montenegro: "Sister, you and I have a deep love for each other, and I want this palace to help you express this, To put it bluntly, there is no need to use the prince as an excuse."

Yuan's face stiffened, but soon softened, and her smile became softer: "Mother, I naturally have selfish motives, but what I said was indeed putting myself in the shoes of His Highness the Crown Prince."

The queen's narrow phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through fire: "Sister, when you come here, you must have already thought of a plan. How are you going to deal with Princess Qi, and how do you want me to help you?"

Mrs. Yuan squeezed the handkerchief tightly and wiped away her tears again: "Your Majesty, to be honest, I wanted to bring her to the Prime Minister's Mansion to vent my anger, but... Yu Qinghuan is Princess Qi after all, with a distinguished status, and I am just an official. Even if the wife of the Minister of the Ministry takes up the identity of a legitimate mother, she can't do anything to her at all. Your mother is the most noble woman in the world except the Queen Mother. It is natural to punish a princess..."

The queen interrupted her: "Okay, sister, don't put a high hat on me. The rest is easy to talk about. What I care about is that Princess Qi has not made any mistakes. What excuse should I use to punish her?"

Yuan's eyes flashed, and she took out a few letters from the bottom of her sleeves and handed them to the queen. Her plump and beautifully decorated face was ferocious and twisted: "These are letters exchanged between Yu Qinghuan and my husband's nephew. Among them The endless affection is evident in every word. Madam, if you let the Queen Mother know that her most beloved son has married a daughter-in-law who doesn’t know how to behave, do you think the Queen Mother will be furious?"

The queen smiled with a kind smile: "A few letters can't explain anything. If Yu Qinghuan refuses to die, there is nothing I can do."

Naturally, Yuan knew that the Queen wanted her to pave the way and then enjoy the fruits of it. In this way, if something went wrong, the Queen would be able to push it aside completely.

But what if we knew what the queen was thinking?The Queen is the mother of the country and has full authority to do whatever she wants in this regard.

As long as she can knock down Yu Qinghuan with one blow, she doesn't mind suffering some losses. When she heard this, she said with a smile: "Mother, although Yu Qinghuan married into the prince's palace, she can run away as a monk but not in the temple. Her mother-in-law, Mrs. Chu, is still in the palace. I can make my body round and flat as I please, and as long as I make a fuss about it with the Chu family, I won’t be afraid that Yu Qinghuan will deny her even to death."

The queen smiled with satisfaction, and tapped the silver spoon embedded with precious stones on the incense burner. The sound was clear and clear, and her voice was like broken ice: "Sister, you entered the palace today. I don't know how many pairs of eyes saw it. If I Gong directly launched an attack, which is somewhat unfair, and the purpose is too obvious. Wan'er is the one who suffers, so she has to provoke this matter to be more convincing."

Mrs. Yuan praised: "The empress is wise, and I am willing to be inferior."
