The beauty of the Hou family and the king's plan

Shen Baozhao secretly thought he had miscalculated.

I thought that if the disguise was a little ugly it wouldn't attract attention, but I didn't expect that being too ugly would make it easier to be remembered.

It seems that the person who exchanged the note with her must also be in the Colosseum today. I just don't know how much the owner of the note knows.

Did she guess that the Sixth Prince's death was related to her? Or was she targeted because she saved the Duanning County Master and his servant and then disappeared?

No matter what, she revealed her true colors today, causing people to link her to the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion.

However, the Dali Temple had been investigating the case from noon till now, and no one had come to the mansion to investigate the case, which meant that the man had not reported her.

A friend, not an enemy! For some reason, a figure as straight as a pine or cypress appeared in Shen Baozhao's mind.

Could it be Mei Qianhe?

Shen Baozhao shook his head, unable to make sense of it or figure it out.

It was a bad feeling to be stared at at this moment, as if she had lost control. And she didn't know who the person in the dark was.

In that case, why not let each other be in the sun?

Shen Baozhao came up with a good idea.

She took out a piece of specially made flowery paper that she and Qingkong had made together from the drawer and carefully cut it into strips.

It said 'Thanks for the reminder' and also drew a smiley face.

He called Bixiao to bring Xiaobai, stuffed the note into the baby, and let it fly away.

Xiaobai was indeed very satisfied with what Bixiao fed him. This time, he flew back to Prince Huai's Palace one-third faster than usual.

Xiao Yuanhuai eagerly took the note out of the small white bamboo tube.

A touch of milky white petals caught her eye, and the faint fragrance was almost imperceptible. It was the scent of gardenia that she was used to.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly and his eyes narrowed.

When An saw Xiao Yuanhuai, he looked amorous again, oh no, as if he was basking in the spring breeze.

It is certain that what was received today must be a note from the fourth young lady of the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion, and not some official business reported by spies from various places.

But suddenly, An Yi saw Xiao Yuanhuai quickly open the drawer of the desk and put the note in with disgust.

He immediately closed the drawer with a snap, as if he didn't dare to look at the note any longer.

An Yi was dumbfounded. He had never seen his master so awkward before. He couldn't help but wonder what kind of treasonous words Fourth Miss Shen wrote on the note.

If Shen Baozhao knew An Yi's guess, he would definitely cry out in injustice. She just thanked him and added a friendly smile. Who knows what kind of madness Xiao Yuanhuai will go through.

That’s right, Xiao Yuanhuai was crazy.

He was so crazy. After receiving her special flower note, he secretly imagined Shen Baozhao's bright smile.

Then he thought that Shen Baozhao actually showed affection to a man other than him, and he became inexplicably frantic.

Even if the man is himself! Yes, he is jealous of himself.

He didn't want to meet her as Mei Qianhe anymore. He wanted to stand beside her openly and express his love to her.

But he was afraid again. He didn't dare!

Whenever he thought of the moment when he hugged her cold body, he felt such heartache and grief that he never wanted to experience again.

Forget it, just wait a little longer. He is not strong enough yet, so he needs to find out the people who betrayed him in his previous life.

Wait until he has eliminated all the dangers and threats one by one like rotten meat.

That way she can have a bright future.

Whenever he thought about being able to hold her in his arms again, his heart would not be able to calm down for a long time.

At night, the quiet chirping of insects can be heard in Zhaoming Garden.

At this moment, the Rongde Hall was brightly lit. The old uncle and his wife and the eldest son's family were all gathered.

"Cough, cough, cough." Wang tried her best to hold on to her sick body and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

As soon as the incident at the Colosseum happened today, Shen Jiemin hurried back to the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion to report the death.

Everyone was horrified, and they were all worried about the Concubine Shu in the palace. The old uncle and Master Shen both had sad faces.

The Fourth Prince's faction was already having a hard time, and the death of the Sixth Prince made things even worse.

The old man said to the old lady beside him in a low voice: "If you can still hold on, come to the palace tomorrow."

"I have something to tell Madam Shufei."

The old lady had been ill since she was demoted from the Marquis's Mansion to the Earl's Mansion. She had recovered after these days.

But today, after hearing about the Sixth Prince's incident, he fainted again.

Fortunately, she was in good spirits when she woke up. She probably knew that Wang was unreliable now, so she had to force herself to take charge of the situation.

Nodding to the old man, he said, "I will go to the palace tomorrow no matter what."

The couple looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.

The old marquis instructed again: "Bring the fourth girl into the palace tomorrow."

The old lady was puzzled: "Why do you want to bring the fourth girl?"

Although Wang was seriously ill, she was still sitting on Nanny Wang. But she heard that Baozhao was going to be brought into the palace.

Then he said anxiously: "Take me, I want to go to the palace to see the queen."

After she finished speaking, she gasped heavily. Nanny Wang frantically helped her calm down for a long time before she calmed down.

The master was furious when he heard what Wang said: "You entered the palace? You still have the nerve to see the Concubine Shu?"

"You think I don't know why you want to enter the palace. You just want to plead for your good nephew in front of the Concubine Shu."

"The wolf he raised killed the Sixth Prince. If you dare to ask for mercy, I will divorce you and send you back to your parents' home."

The eldest master criticized Wang and threatened to teach her a lesson if it weren't for the fact that she was so sick that she could hardly walk.

When Wang heard what the master said, she burst into tears and gasped for breath.

Seeing that Wang was causing trouble, the old uncle told people to take her back to Yuqing Garden and take good care of her.

Although he was also angry that Wang Shi did not distinguish between relatives and strangers, he knew that being angry would not help. Things have already happened, so how to maximize the benefits is the best choice for the Fourth Prince's faction.

Seeing the old lady's puzzled look, she explained, "Before Concubine Shen entered the palace, the fourth girl gave her some money for her journey."

Although the old uncle remained silent, he knew exactly what was happening in the mansion.

"Now, in the entire Bo Mansion, apart from Aunt Lan and Jie Zhang, the only one who can talk to Concubine Shen is the fourth girl."

The old lady suddenly realized: "Master, you want to..."

"That's right. Ever since Concubine Shen entered the palace, His Majesty has been very fond of her. Even more so than when Concubine Shu entered the palace before."

"Boss, find a time to promote Aunt Lan to a noble concubine. No matter if it's for Jie Zhang or for Concubine Shen in the palace."

The eldest master nodded. He liked Aunt Lan and had this idea in mind for a long time, but he was forced to do so by Wang's tyranny.

"Send someone to inform the fourth girl, and bring her to the palace early tomorrow morning." The old uncle instructed.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!" The gate of Zhaoming Garden was slammed. The gatekeeper came to open the door yawning.

While putting on my clothes, I complained in my heart, "What the hell, someone's knocking on the door so late at night?"

Seeing that the visitor was Fang Madam from Rongde Hall, he immediately said with a flattering smile: "Madam Fang, what else do you need to come here at this late hour?"

Mother Fang didn't say much, and said, "Tomorrow the old lady will bring the fourth young lady to the palace to meet the Empress Shufei. Let the fourth young lady get up early tomorrow and get ready."

Shen Baozhao was already alert, and she heard the noise when the gatekeeper went to the door to report to Qingkong who was on guard.

Enter the palace? Why?

Thinking about the only time he was closest to the imperial palace in his previous life, when he was hung at the gate of the imperial city, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.

In this life, I can enter the palace and gain more experience.
