Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Thinking about it is just four words, the world is cold.

When she was entertaining guests before, she noticed that many ladies and ladies who had come up to gossiping with her before wanted to hide from her this time.

And all of this is just because Gu Yu is currently being targeted by the prince for being idle at home.

The grievances between Li Qiming and Gu Yu have been around for a long time. No one in the capital city knows his various targets against Gu Yu. Now that Li Qiming has become the prince, he has only been in power for a few days, and he has found various means to make Gu Yu stay at home. .

If Li Qiming treats Gu Yu like this, he probably won't be soft on Ningguo Houfu.

She heard Gu Yu mention that it was Li Qiming who said in front of the civil and military courts that he was determined to come to congratulate Ningguo Hou Mansion on the wedding ceremony. If Li Qiming hadn't made his statement earlier, there might not be so many people in Ning Guo Hou Mansion today. guests.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

After all, they are nodding friends, and Qi Qingxi doesn't care about their attitude.

It's just that she didn't expect that even the Wang family, which was usually taken care of by Ning Guohou's mansion, would be so disregarding the flesh and blood relationship with Nian's aunt Wang.

She remembered that the Wang family was present when Zhao Jingwan gave birth, and she didn't know what news the Wang family had received, and she didn't even want to wait until the full moon banquet in the Hou Mansion was over before taking all of them away.

Qi Qingxi sighed: "I don't know how sad the Wang family has behaved like this."

Zhao Jingwan curled her lips: "Who said it wasn't? I just sent someone to ask about it. None of those Wang Jiaerlang who are studying in the Imperial College have come to the child's full moon banquet."

Qi Qingxi was touched in his heart, just about to sigh, but asked Zhao Jingwan to stop her next words.

Zhao Jingwan lightly bumped Qi Qingxi's shoulder, and whispered: "Guess what else I found out about. The eldest cousin of your uncle's family, the one named Bai, do you know that her brother is working with the prince now, and now she is The big red man next to the prince."

Qi Qingxi's eyes were full of surprise: "You mean Bai Qingxiao? He is a big celebrity next to the prince?"

"That's right, I also heard Shen Zheng unintentionally mentioning that the reason why Zi Cong would be removed from his post was because of some idea given to the prince by that surnamed Bai."

Zhao Jingwan had an expression of "you really don't know": "Since Zi Cong didn't tell you about this, I guess I don't want you to worry too much, you just pretend you don't know, otherwise Zi Cong should blame me for talking too much."

Qi Qingxi nodded thoughtfully, then looked Zhao Jingwan up and down with a smile: "You are not giving birth to confinement, but you know a lot of news."

Unexpectedly, it was Zhao Jingwan's turn to sigh this time: "Actually, I have no interest in these things, but as the wife of the eldest son of the Marquis of Ningguo, and the current situation is like this, there are some things that I can't help but not know."

At this time, a brisk voice came from outside the door.

"What are the two sisters-in-law talking about?"

The two turned their heads and looked at each other in a warm voice. Princess An Ning walked towards the two of them across the threshold with her clothes on her hem.

An Ning pulled up a stool and sat beside the two of them, and Qi Qingxi asked her, "How are you doing recently? How is the concubine Xian?"

Qi Qingxi hadn't seen An Ning for a few days, just now An Ning was sitting with the royal family at the banquet, and they couldn't talk, but now they finally had a chance to chat.

"Well, we're all doing well, but I miss my little nephew and niece very much. The palace is not very peaceful recently, and I can't leave the palace to look for you outside the city at any time." After An Ning said this, she immediately realized how little she was. After saying something, he quickly added, "Of course there are also you and brother, and my mother and concubine are also very concerned."

Qi Qingxi's attention was completely attracted by another sentence An Ning said: "What's wrong? Did something happen in the palace?"

An Ning lowered her head slightly and rubbed her fingers: "It's not a big deal. The prince found an alchemist from nowhere a few days ago and came back to introduce him to the father. The father is now obsessed with visiting immortals and making alchemy. The emperor said that alchemy is the most important thing and requires endurance, and if you want to make the best pills, the people who need the medicines will stay by the alchemy furnace day and night until the alchemy is formed."

It is well known that there is an extra alchemist beside Emperor Qitai.

It is not uncommon for emperors to pursue the art of longevity in countless dynasties.

It's just that Qi Qingxi didn't expect that a wise emperor like Emperor Qitai would abandon the government because of the few words of the alchemist.

She doesn't know if Emperor Qitai is so obsessed with alchemy, guarding the alchemy furnace day and night, whether he can produce the best pills. She only knows that this move has allowed Li Qiming to successfully monopolize the power of the government, and even abandon the frontiers and the people.

She remembered that last time they suspected that Li Qiming's way of "slapping a sweet date" towards the courtiers was a plan by a powerful adviser.

Now she already knew that this powerful counselor was Bai Qingxiao, so the idea of ​​introducing alchemists to Emperor Qitai to lure him into alchemy was probably related to Bai Qingxiao.

Thinking of the dream that Bai Qingxiao forced the woman who looked exactly like her to poison Gu Yu, Qi Qingxi felt his teeth itch with hatred.

"Sister-in-law? What's the matter with you?"

An Ning's concerned words interrupted Qi Qingxi's wild thoughts, and then she noticed that her hands were stacked together at some point, and her bones and joints were cracked by her.

Qi Qingxi stretched her brows that were twisted into a line, and said softly: "It's nothing, you can continue."

An Ning nodded and continued the topic just now.

"The art of longevity has been pursued by many emperors since ancient times, but which one has succeeded, but the health is getting worse and worse. It is obvious that the immortality medicine is a deceptive thing made by those alchemy."

As she spoke, she sighed again, "I can't stand Father, but I firmly believe it. I was worried that Father would feel unwell after taking those pills, but the palace people found that it was too late, so they kept guarding in the palace." Don't dare to go far, after all, the prince's eyes and ears are everywhere in the palace now."

An Ning's eyelashes filled with tears, she grabbed Qi Qingxi's hand and said in a panic, "Sister-in-law, you said my father...will my father..."

Qi Qingxi put both hands on the back of An Ning's hand and patted lightly: "No, you forgot that the last time the emperor was ill, you discovered it in time, and the emperor was able to recover. With you, the emperor will never have any accidents."

An Ning nodded absently.

Zhao Jingwan at the side also comforted: "Yes, Your Highness, it's just a few pills, and the alchemist would never dare to put anything else in it."

Suddenly, Qi Qingxi felt blessed, what Zhao Jingwan's words reminded her of.

"Your Highness." She leaned over to whisper in An Ning's ear.

After a while, An Ning showed a look of joy: "This is feasible."
