Sister, look at him!

Chapter 39: The Reborn Female General's Queen Mother's Best Friend 17

Half a month after the news that He Qing was about to die was released, she received a secret letter from Prince Yong and Ji Ruyue.

"Just write that I'm under surveillance and that we can't make any big moves. Tell them to guard the border and wait for news." He Qingwan soaked in the white jade hot spring pool, sipping tea made from plum blossoms covered with fresh snow.

Mu Yan was behind the screen. After hearing her words, he immediately recounted in his own tone the situation in which He Qingwan was under attack from all sides.

"What should be done with Prince Rui and Prince Chen?" Mu Yan folded the letter, gave it to his confidant, and asked him to deliver the letter.

"Prince Chen will keep it, and Prince Rui will find a reason to kill it." He Qingwan fiddled with the flower petals in the pool.

Mu Yan: "Where's An Cheng? Her house arrest is about to end."

He Qingwan said, "It's normal to have some accidents on the way to the marriage."

"It's totally normal." Mu Yan held back his laughter and wrote a memorial, which he would present to the emperor as soon as the curfew order in Ancheng was lifted.

"Oh, that King Shu." He Qingwan suddenly remembered that there was such a person. "Don't worry about him. The real King Shu is still alive, just sleeping. He will go back after a while, and the King Shu will wake up."

"Yes." Mu Yan nodded, "The mausoleum is almost finished. Do you want to go and see it yourself?"

"It's weird to look at your own grave while you're still alive." He Qingwan changed the cup and poured himself a glass of green plum wine. "I believe in your aesthetic taste. I'll just move in when the time comes."

"Okay." Mu Yan's eyes showed some sadness, "Will we meet again?"

"..." He Qingwan was silent.

She thought for a moment, "As long as you are strong enough, Ayan, you will be able to see me again."

How powerful is powerful enough?

Mu Yan doesn’t know, but he will try his best.

It's March again and flowers are blooming.

He Qingwan's Guanyin statue is already half built, and He Qingwan is visibly getting healthier.

He couldn't even wake up before, but now he can be helped to get out of bed.

Mu Yan and Wang Linglong supported her on both sides as they walked to the talent show venue, where Jing Zhan had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Majesty... cough cough cough." He Qingwan just asked hello and then he started coughing violently.

Jing Zhan was so worried that he got off the dragon chair and helped her up. "It's still a bit cold now, and you haven't recovered yet, so how come you can come out?"

"I'm fine, just for a moment, I'll be fine." He Qingwan smiled softly, and her pale face was tinged with some brightness.

Jing Zhan couldn't persuade her, so he could only help her sit back in her seat.

Sitting in the seat that belonged to the Queen Mother, He Qingwan looked at the beautiful ladies standing in rows below.

Yue Qingque, standing in the front row, is definitely one of the four concubines.

But this was not He Qingwan's purpose. He Qingwan's purpose was a girl standing in the back row.

Zhou Yanran is the youngest daughter of Zhou Danian, the richest man in Yangzhou, and the biological sister of Zhou Bingzhi.

According to her status, she was not qualified to reach this point, but her backer was He Qingwan.

"Your Majesty, the one in the pink dress in the back row is the daughter of the richest man in Yangzhou." He Qingwan leaned close to Jing Zhan and spoke softly, "Her brother just passed the imperial examination last year and currently has no party affiliation. Her father's greatest wish is to become an imperial merchant."

He Qing will arrive later.

Jing Zhan's eyes moved slightly.

He is in need of his own people.

Although Prime Minister He is loyal to him, the people behind Prime Minister He may not be loyal to him. They stand behind Prime Minister He, not behind him, Xuanyuan Jingzhan.

He had to train his own people, but he was short of money, very short of money.

Therefore, Jing Zhan looked at He Qingwan with some emotion in his eyes, and he said silently, "Thank you, Wanwan."

"Your Majesty, I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'll leave first." Seeing that Jing Zhan understood what she meant, He Qingwan was very considerate and offered to leave.

"Goodbye, Your Majesty." Jing Zhan nodded slightly.

"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty." He Qingwan suddenly stopped and said, "I haven't seen my brother for a long time..."

She stopped at the right time, giving Jing Zhan unlimited space for imagination.

Jing Zhan was not stupid, of course he understood what He Qingwan meant, and the light in his eyes became even brighter, "I will ask Eunuch Liu to tell him right away."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Only then did He Qingwan feel at ease and got into the sedan chair and left.

Isn't Prime Minister He loyal to the emperor and patriotic? Then she will make Prime Minister He suspected and dismissed by the emperor he is loyal to.

When He Xiyu heard that He Qingwan wanted to see him, his eyes turned red with excitement.

After hurriedly washing up, he entered the palace, only to see a sickly beauty with pale complexion.

Mu Yan explained to He Xiyu in great sorrow.

"When we were in Yangzhou, the Queen Mother was injured in the foundation. We kept it a secret because we were afraid that you would worry. A few days ago, we finally released the news, but..."

Mu Yan covered her face and cried.

He Xiyu stiffened.

He also always thought that Mu Yan was talking nonsense and his purpose was to build the Guanyin statue in the national temple.

But I never thought it was true...

"The Queen Mother is not going to live long. She misses you, so she wants to see you one last time." Mu Yan said earnestly, "The Queen Mother has been waiting for you just now. She fell asleep because she couldn't wait any longer. I hope Lord He will not blame the Queen Mother."

"How can I bear to blame Wanwan..."

He Xiyu knelt on one knee beside He Qingwan's bed and cried inconsolably.

It was his cowardice that led to Wanwan's current fate.

If he had been braver, if he had dared to resist his father, would his sister not be lying here like a corpse?

He carefully stroked He Qingwan's fair and cold hand. On that delicate and soft wrist was a bracelet of fine white jade, which was a birthday gift he gave to He Qingwan on her seventh birthday.

"Wanwan..." He Xiyu murmured softly, and there was a bit more determination in her tearful eyes.

After seeing He Xiyu off, Mu Yan helped He Qingwan sit up from the bed. Wang Linglong and Linlang, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly brought up the pastries made by Tong Leyao.

He Qingwan was fed a mouthful of cloud cake by Mu Yan. After swallowing the cake in her mouth, she asked Wang Linglong, "Linglong, what do your parents think?"

Maybe because she just woke up, her voice was a little sweet, as if she was holding a piece of candy in her mouth.

"Your Majesty, my father, mother and nine brothers all listen to me!" Wang Linglong replied immediately.

Are you kidding? She has only been following the Queen Mother for half a year and she has already completed 80% of her mission. If she wants to capture the male protagonist, there will be no sign of anything in half a year!

"Do your nine brothers include Prince Rui?" Mu Yan asked her.

"Not allowed! Absolutely not allowed! Our whole family doesn't like Prince Rui!" Wang Linglong quickly began to express her loyalty, "I can let my father and mother assist the emperor right now!"

He is someone who knows how to judge the situation.

He Qingwan was satisfied, "Linglong, today's work is done today, you know what that means, right?"

"I'll go home and tell my parents right away!" Wang Linglong understood immediately and responded directly. As soon as she finished speaking, the system reminded her that the task progress had reached 90%.

Good, she made the right decision again.
