The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Chapter 309: Privately mining gold is tantamount to treason

In the eyes of Marquis Jing'an, even though Shen Qinglan is now Princess Zhan, even though Shen Qinglan has become Princess Jiashun, she is still his daughter!

And now, he came to Prince Zhan's Mansion, but Shen Qinglan did not receive him immediately and even left him aside. How could Marquis Jing'an tolerate this?

If he doesn't use Qiao to teach Shen Qinglan a lesson, where will he put his face if others tell others about it?

Hearing the accusation from Marquis Jing'an, Shen Qinglan remained calm. He just looked at Marquis Jing'an in surprise and shook his head innocently.

"My Lord, you are joking. You have forgotten that the Emperor has named me Princess Jiashun. It seems that Qinglan's name has been crossed out from the Shen family tree two days ago. He is just waiting for Qinglan's wedding day to be included in the royal jade book."

After these words were spoken, Marquis Jing'an was speechless, and a trace of resentment filled his heart.

Shen Qinglan was lucky, as King Zhan used the tiger talisman to exchange for her body as a princess!

Now, her name has been moved away.

So now, even though she is his biological daughter, on the surface, Shen Qinglan is already a royal princess.

The royal family is the king and he is the minister.

Not to mention that Shen Qinglan doesn't have to call him father. If Shen Qinglan cares more, Marquis Jing'an will probably have to kneel down and kowtow to Shen Qinglan!

When Marquis Jing'an thought of this, his face turned very ugly.

He glanced at Shen Qinglan and felt that Shen Qinglan now looked as dignified and generous as before, but there was a feeling that something had changed.

Immediately, Jing'an Hou glanced at Shen Qinglan, suppressed his anger, and said coldly:

"Even if you are crowned a princess, you still have the blood of our Shen family! You can't just turn your back on others and ignore the kindness of the Shen family in raising you, right?"

Shen Qinglan was not angry when being scolded by Marquis Jing'an. She just glanced at Shuyu beside her. Shuyu then stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for Marquis Jing'an.

"My Lord, please drink some tea to calm down. The weather is getting hotter now. I think my Lord is a little angry. Otherwise, he would not dare to say such outrageous words."

Jing'an Hou glared at Shen Qinglan and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Shen Qinglan's smile remained unchanged as he simply explained:

"This whole land belongs to the king, and all the people in the land are his subjects. No matter whose blood I bleed from, I am still the princess of Dayong, and I am loyal to His Majesty."

"But the Marquis... said that I didn't care about the Shen family, which was a betrayal? Could it be that the Marquis had the intention of rebellion, so he called it, "outside"? "

Shen Qinglan's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but the words that came out of his mouth made Marquis Jing'an break out in cold sweats.

It was June, but Marquis Jing'an's back was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

He just wanted to control Shen Qinglan, but he didn't expect Shen Qinglan to involve him in treason.

If Emperor Jingren heard this, would he still have a chance to survive?

Shen Qinglan was deliberately trying to wake him up!

This damn girl! How dare she threaten him? Isn't she relying on Huo Zhanting?

If Huo Zhanting didn't dote on Shen Qinglan so much, how could this girl dare to be so presumptuous towards him?

Jing'an Hou had already cursed Shen Qinglan hundreds of times in his heart, but on his face, he still put on an ugly smile and said:

"Qinglan, you are going too far. I was just saying this casually. Do you think you are taking it too seriously? I am so happy that you are so lucky."

At this moment, Marquis Jing'an looked at Shen Qinglan with a flattering smile, without any of the arrogance and complacency he had when he first came in.

Shen Qinglan smiled and did not answer.

She knew that Marquis Jing'an had been living a very smooth life these days. After all, Marquis Jing'an had wasted half his life, and finally got such a good job. How could he not be happy?

But Shen Qinglan just didn't want to see Marquis Jing'an jumping around in front of her.

"My Lord, I don't come to your palace for no reason. I don't know why you come to the Zhan Wang Mansion today."

Shen Qinglan leaned back in her chair, looked at Marquis Jing'an with a smile on her face and asked, but even though she was smiling, the smile did not reach her eyes.

Jing'an Hou didn't think much about it, he just thought Shen Qinglan was just making fun of him, after thinking for a while, he lowered his voice and said:

"I came here today because I really want to find you. The Fourth Prince seems to have encountered an assassin on the road. Now, the flood is serious. If the Fourth Prince cannot reach the South in time, I am afraid he will incur the wrath of the Saint."

"Since we are on the Fourth Prince's ship, we must protect him more. The Fourth Prince sent a letter asking King Zhan to assign some people. What do you think..."

Although Marquis Jing'an has been feeling very proud these days, he also knows that he was able to sit in that position purely because of the promotion of the Fourth Prince.

Now that the Fourth Prince is in trouble, he will naturally do his best to help!

After all, if he took action in such a crisis, the Fourth Prince would be grateful to him! Then, in the future, this merit of following the Dragon would be...

Shen Qinglan's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this.

It seems that the fourth prince is indeed not having a good life, right?

Otherwise, why would they ask for help from Marquis Jing'an and ask the Prince Zhan's Mansion for help?

It must be that the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince's men were putting him under too much pressure.

Tsk, since ancient times, who among the royal family has fought for the throne without wading through blood and rain?

Now, the Fourth Prince’s troubles have only just begun.

Shen Qinglan thought about this, looked at Jing'an Hou and said with a smile:

"What are you talking about, Lord? We, the Zhan Wang Mansion, have always been loyal to His Majesty alone. If the Fourth Prince wants the Zhan Wang Mansion to help, he should ask for His Majesty's grace, and only then can our Zhan Wang Mansion help him."

Jing'an Hou didn't expect that Shen Qinglan would refuse this. He looked at Shen Qinglan in surprise and said:

"What do you mean? Didn't you ask me to give the gold mine to the Fourth Prince? If so, doesn't that mean you chose the Fourth Prince?"

After a pause, Marquis Jing'an frowned and said, "Forget it. It's useless to talk to a woman like you. Where is the War King? Please ask the War King to come over."

After all, such a large gold mine must not be something that Shen Qinglan could know about and own, so it must be the War King's intention.

Now that Shen Qinglan was deliberately making fun of his biological father, he was too lazy to say anything more to Shen Qinglan.

In the eyes of Marquis Jing'an, women should hide in the backyard and be obedient playthings.

He was also stupid. Why did he tell Shen Qinglan all this? Would she understand what he said?

Shen Qinglan heard this, shook his head and said with a smile:

"My Lord, you may have misunderstood something. We in the Zhan Palace have never had any gold mines, and we have never intended for you to give it to the Fourth Prince."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Jing'an's face changed, and he slammed the table in anger and said:

"It was you who sent it here, and you asked me to find the Fourth Prince. Why don't you admit it?"

Shen Qinglan looked at Jing'an Hou innocently as he stood up and asked:

"My Lord, think carefully. Was it really my princess who sent someone to deliver it? Was it really my princess who instructed you to go find the Fourth Prince? My Lord, if you want to choose a side, it's your business, but don't involve others."

"You..." Marquis Jing'an was about to refute, but suddenly thought of something.

Yup!

The clue to the gold mine was not sent by Shen Qinglan himself!

It was a maid who said something ambiguous, making him mistakenly believe that it was Shen Qinglan who sent it!

Not only that, Shen Qinglan and Huo Zhanting never told him about this matter in person from beginning to end. He understood everything when the maid conveyed the message.

Jing'an Hou's heart was beating wildly. He looked at Shen Qinglan in shock, took a deep breath, and asked in a low voice:

"That gold mine, was it really not given by you?"

Shen Qinglan looked Jing'an Hou up and down and said seriously:

"My Lord, privately mining gold is tantamount to treason. How could I possibly encourage you to do this?"
