The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Chapter 179: One Step Later and It Will Be Too Late

Everyone was confused. Ah Man couldn't even speak clearly, so how could he draw?

However, Shen Qingyan felt that since God had taken away Ah Man’s ability, he would definitely give him a skill in return.

Because the way he gestured in the air with his hands, it was obvious that he was not gesturing randomly, but that he was eager to draw something.

After hearing what Shen Qingyan said, Gu Beihuai immediately ordered his servants, "Bring paper and pen."

Liefeng frowned and spoke carefully.

"Your Majesty, this person is as stupid as a child, how can he draw anything? Please don't believe him."

Gu Beihuai's eyes were slightly cold, and his voice had a hint of harshness.

"Since you are smarter than Ah Man, you can draw it."

Liefeng realized that he had said something wrong and quickly apologized.

Soon, paper and pen were brought.

Ah Man held the pen crookedly and studied it for a long time. Just when everyone thought he really couldn't draw, he finally put pen to paper.

Shen Qingyan believed him from beginning to end and watched Ah Man's actions calmly.

Although Ah Man's pen-holding posture is incorrect, his serious attitude and smooth writing are enough to demonstrate his talent.

It didn't take long for him to draw the general outline.

Everyone was stunned. Who could have thought that this big fool could actually draw?

The painting shows a man with thin cheeks, fair skin, sharp and shrewd eyes. His long beard and fair face are inconsistent and seem a bit abrupt.

I seem to have seen this person somewhere, but also I seem to have never seen him before.

For someone with outstanding painting skills, Ah Man's paintings are not very good, but people can see the most basic features of the people in the paintings at a glance.

When Gu Beihuai saw that person, he recognized who he was at first sight.

The beard sticks out because it's fake.

His face turned livid, but he couldn't say anything.

That person probably didn't expect Ah Man would draw him, so he boldly handed the thing to Ah Man and let him spread the plague in the Prince of Huai's Mansion.

But he is not the mastermind. The person who directs behind the scenes is the most terrifying.

In order to deal with him, he actually paid such a huge price?

Sensing the change in Gu Beihuai's expression, Shen Qingyan asked in a low voice: "Prince, what's wrong?"

Gu Beihuai nodded, "Yan'er, let me make all the arrangements and then explain to you."

"it is good."

Leng Feng has already arranged for people to seal off the palace and search for suspicious persons, and now he comes hurriedly to ask Gu Beihuai.

"Your Majesty, do you want to report this to the palace?"

"He already knew about it, but the matter still needed to be reported."

Leng Feng didn't understand what the phrase "already knew that" meant, but still listened to the instructions respectfully.

"Not only should we report it to the palace, but we should also make a big announcement to warn everyone in the capital."

"Find skilled painters and have them paint the portrait of Ah Man in a more detailed way, and post it in various places in the capital, especially in the homes of the ministers."

"Yes."

After giving these instructions, Gu Beihuai helped Shen Qingyan back to the room.

"It's windy outside and you have a high fever. You can't get cold."

After the court physician examined Shen Qingyan's pulse, he went to boil some medicine, leaving the two of them alone together.

Without waiting for Gu Beihuai to explain, Shen Qingyan asked about her guess.

"Is that person from the palace?"

Gu Beihuai nodded, his expression solemn.

"This person is the chief eunuch beside my father, Su Yuande's godson Su Jijin."

Shen Qingyan was so smart that she quickly figured out the intricacies of the situation.

"Did the emperor instruct him? What is his purpose in doing this?"

Suddenly, she thought of a deeper level and looked at Gu Beihuai abruptly.

Is the emperor going to deal with Gu Beihuai?

They are father and son, how can they deal with each other?

What if... they are not father and son...

If it went any deeper, Shen Qingyan didn’t dare to think about it anymore and could only look at Gu Beihuai in astonishment.

Gu Beihuai reached out and rubbed her cheek, saying lightly: "As you wish."

After the fire, he told the secret he had hidden for many years to the woman he trusted the most and was closest to.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, he felt that with Shen Qingyan's intelligence, she should understand what he meant quickly.

"My Lord, you are not the Emperor... Then who are you?"

Just as Gu Beihuai was about to answer, Leng Feng's anxious voice came from outside.

"Your Majesty, someone has come to the palace and wants you to come in immediately."

Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai looked at each other and both expected that things would become increasingly out of control.

If the emperor was really the mastermind behind this, he must have planned everything long ago. They must deal with it carefully, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

"I will go to the palace once, and Leng Fengliefeng and the others will be there. Yan'er, I will explain it to you in detail when I come back, and you should be careful in the palace."

The phrase "handle with caution" was very low key, and obviously had a deep meaning.

Shen Qingyan understood that this time when Gu Beihuai entered the palace, he might be in danger, and she was not at peace in the mansion either, so she nodded seriously.

Gu Beihuai pushed open the door and saw several palace servants waiting for him there, led by the chief eunuch Su Yuande.

Su Yuande looked at Gu Beihuai with a forced smile, his attitude was so respectful that no one could find fault with it, but his sharp and deep eyes made it impossible to fathom the deeper meaning.

This person is dangerous.

"Your Majesty, please come in. The Emperor has learned about the plague. Please come to the palace to discuss the plague."

Gu Beihuai glanced at him coldly, did not respond, and walked straight ahead.

Su Yuande felt a little embarrassed and his eyes became more sinister.

Prince Huai was so capable that he actually got that big fool to draw a portrait of Su Jijin, which was circulated all over the capital. Fortunately, his godson rarely appeared in public, and many ministers had never seen him.

But Gu Beihuai had seen it before, so Su Jijin couldn't stay.

After Gu Beihuai left, Shen Qingyan also thought about this problem.

Su Jijin's portrait has been exposed. For the sake of caution, he will probably be dealt with secretly. He cannot die yet, otherwise if the emperor puts the blame of spreading the plague on Gu Beihuai, he will never be able to clear himself.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyan quickly wrote a short letter, put it together with Su Jijin's portrait, and stuffed it into Zhiqing.

"Quick, pass the letter to my brother."

"Yes."

However, Zhiqing came back not long after.

"My Lady Princess, there are many more Royal Guards around the palace, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. What should we do?"

Shen Qingyan was shocked. The emperor wanted to block Gu Beihuai's retreat so that he could not turn over.

But she refused to accept her fate. The person she wanted to protect failed to do so in her previous life, and no one could stop her in this life!

"Zhiqing, put on my clothes, quickly!"

Shen Qingyan found the men's clothes she wore when she went out before and changed quickly.

Zhiqing was a little hesitant and worried, "But Princess, what if..."

"There is no chance of a disaster. If you are one step late, it will be too late."

Zhiyu was a man of action. He immediately helped Shen Qingyan change her clothes and said anxiously, "The princess must have her own plans. We must trust her and resolutely not hold her back."

Although she may seem reckless sometimes, she is actually very smart. She understood that Shen Qingyan wanted to go out and deliver the letter herself and let Zhiqing pretend to be her.
