The Marquis's Mansion is a cannibalistic hell, the daughter of the emperor is being bloodbathed
Chapter 487 All forces are ready to move
On a pleasure boat, the King of Qi was in no mood to appreciate the graceful singing and dancing of the women. He waved his sleeves and asked them all to leave.
"Your Highness, please be patient. The emperor has not made a decision yet, and the news may not be true." Dong Wenhai comforted.
If the crown prince had not passed away, why would the Dong family have placed their hopes on the King of Qi?
"But it was my father who said that Prince An should be made the crown prince and Li Yuncheng the regent."
The Prince of Qi had a sinister look in his eyes. He should have gotten rid of Prince An long ago. If he had died earlier, the Emperor would have no other choice.
"You! You're still so impatient."
A rather majestic female voice was heard, and accompanied by the sound of jingling jewelry, Princess An Gu walked in.
"Aunt!" When the King of Qi saw the person coming, he was overjoyed and stood up quickly.
He knew that Princess Angu would definitely choose to help him. After all, Prince Rui was almost a useless person now. Choosing him would mean failure. Only he was the most suitable person to inherit the throne.
Dong Wenhai also stood up and bowed to Princess Angu. If he wanted to take the throne, he could not do without the help of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
At the same time, in an inconspicuous courtyard somewhere in the capital, Prince Rui had a hard and cold expression on his face, and his eyes were so gloomy that they seemed to be dripping with water.
"Old fellow, he didn't even think of killing the King of Qi, but instead left a backup plan. Did he think that the King of An could sit firmly on the throne? Haha! What a foolish dream!" King Rui said in a cold voice, but he seemed a little weak.
"Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered Li Yuncheng to be the regent, hoping that he will assist the new Emperor a hundred years after the Emperor's death. This arrangement will surely be supported by many ministers in the court, and even some aristocratic families will think that the Emperor is wise."
After hearing this, Prince Rui's expression did not change, he just coughed lightly a few times.
"If he is wise, he should have gotten rid of the evil King Qi earlier. But it's fine if they take action. I just need to be the one who takes action."
"Your Highness is right! Then this matter..."
……
It is spring, the weather is getting warmer, and the newly planted flowers and plants in the yard are growing more and more lush, creating a vibrant scene.
However, the old marquis's health became increasingly weak, and he spent more and more time feeling drowsy during the day.
Jiang was very filial and invited all the famous doctors in the capital, even two imperial physicians, just to cure the old marquis's illness.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. The old marquis drank a lot of medicine, but his condition did not improve.
For this reason, Su Qingwan and Jiang made a special trip to the White Horse Temple to burn incense and pray for the old marquis. For a time, everyone in the capital praised Jiang as a virtuous and filial daughter-in-law, and said that the Marquis of Chengping was lucky to marry Jiang, and the children born were all excellent and extraordinary.
Although Su Yuewen had an engagement, Su Yuewu had not. Many wealthy families asked people to inquire about the news, but they were all rejected by Jiang. Now that the prince had just been buried, the national mourning had not yet passed, so it was not possible to talk about marriage at this time, so even the matter of agreeing on a wedding date for Su Yuewen was postponed. Fortunately, the Duke of Chen's Mansion was sensible, and they also meant the same thing.
On this day, Su Qingwan went to the main courtyard as usual to pay her respects to the old marquis.
"Is grandpa in better spirits today?" Su Qingwan asked.
The old marquis's attendant shook his head and said, "Fourth Miss, the old marquis didn't dare to close his eyes last night. He only squinted his eyes and slept for a while in the morning."
"Oh! What will happen if I don't sleep tonight? I guess I should ask the doctor to prescribe some tranquilizers."
Su Qingwan looked worried, but she knew in her heart that the old marquis was afraid of having a nightmare, so he tried hard not to fall asleep, thinking that this way he would not see ghosts.
"Fourth Miss, how about asking a fairy master to come and take a look? The old marquis always said that he could see the old lady of the Li family. This..."
The attendant suggested that he felt that what the old marquis said was true, and it might be Li who really came to find him, because he also saw her one night, dressed in white, and very scary.
"Don't talk nonsense. Grandfather just dreams about what he thinks about during the day. Besides, when people get older, they always tend to think about people and things from their youth. Grandfather is probably in this situation. Just take some tranquilizers. It's okay."
Su Qingwan simply ignored the followers. After being frightened for such a long time, the old marquis was just frightened to the point of being exhausted. This little stimulation was nothing. The old marquis was already weak and didn't like to move. He drank tonic ginseng soup all day, but he was not able to take the tonic and felt worse.
The followers had no choice but to give up, but they didn't expect that that night, after a few screams, the old marquis became unable to move with his mouth crooked and eyes squinting.
After Jiang asked a doctor to examine the old marquis, the doctor just said that the old marquis had suffered a stroke and that he would be fine if he took good care of himself.
That day, Su Qingwan changed her clothes and left the mansion in a carriage. However, as soon as she left, someone followed her.
"Miss, someone is following us."
Halfway through the journey, Pearl got off the car to get something and saw the sneaky figure.
"It doesn't matter. We can just find an alley and take care of him later."
These days, she was always being followed whenever she went out, but since where she was going was not important, she ignored the people following her. But today, she had to ignore it because she wanted to go see Su Lihan.
After these days of recuperation, her injuries should be almost healed.
The carriage entered the alley and the person who was following it followed in. However, before he could see clearly, he felt a pain on the back of his head and fell down.
Lao Ma calmly cleaned off all the things on the man's body, then returned to the carriage and continued driving.
"Miss, this is someone from Prince Qi's Mansion." Old Ma glanced at the token in his hand.
Su Qingwan smiled faintly. She had long guessed that the person following her must be someone from Prince Qi's Mansion. It seemed that Su Yunrou had not given up yet and wanted to find out Su Lihan's whereabouts from her, but she was destined to be disappointed.
The carriage continued to move, and half an hour later, it stopped at the gate of an inconspicuous courtyard.
After Su Qingwan entered the room, a maid came up to her and said, "Miss, she locked herself in the room and refused to come out. We knocked on the door for a long time but it didn't open."
"I'll go and take a look." Su Qingwan walked to the door of the wing room, and saw the maid who used to serve Su Lihan standing there with red and swollen eyes, as if she had been crying for a long time.
"Fifth sister, I'm coming in."
As Su Qingwan spoke, she raised her hand and pushed the door, but it didn't open. However, this didn't make any difference to her. She used a little strength to break the bolt and walked in.
Su Lihan hid in the bed curtains. After hearing the noise, she hid herself in the quilt again and sobbed, "Get out, get out, I don't want to see anyone!"
However, Su Qingwan ignored what she said and found a place to sit down. Zhenzhu also hurriedly opened all the windows for ventilation.
"Fifth sister, I am not here to persuade you to live. I just want to ask you, do you still want revenge? If you want revenge, then come out yourself."
