The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Chapter 395: Damn You, You're So Obsessed With Money

As soon as Gu Beihuai left, Shen Qingyan slipped away to find Qiu Ying.

At this time, Qiu Ying was leaning comfortably on the couch, leisurely cracking melon seeds and drinking milk tea, with a warm stove beside her, and two palace maids were peeling longans and walnuts for her.

As soon as Shen Qingyan arrived, Qiu Ying smiled and patted the seat beside her.

"Qingyan, come here quickly. I have a new milk tea. Come and try it."

After saying that, he asked the palace maid to pour tea for Shen Qingyan.

The two talked for a long time, until the moon rose above the treetops, Shen Qingyan said as a matter of course.

"Aunt, it's getting late. Let's take a rest. I'll have a good chat with you tonight."

Qiu Ying raised the corners of her eyebrows slightly, sensing something was wrong.

"Why, you didn't come to talk to me for so long just to avoid your man, did you?"

Shen Qingyan blushed and was too embarrassed to admit it, but fortunately she had already found a reason.

"I'm still not satisfied with the Imperial Auntie. Why doesn't the Imperial Auntie welcome me?"

"Hehe, hehehe." Qiu Ying smiled cunningly, "Okay, no need to explain, I understand, I understand everything..."

Shen Qingyan's face turned even redder, like a ripe cherry. "Aunt Huang, it's really not what you think. I came to you for another reason. It was to make Yu Hongyan misunderstand so that I could take advantage of her..."

But the more she explained, the bigger Qiu Ying's teasing smile became. "Don't explain. Explanation is covering up, and covering up is the truth."

"Aunt Huang, you're teasing me again!"

The laughter of the two continued to spread out from the room and reached the ears of a sneaky little eunuch outside the wall.

He didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurried back to Yunlian Palace to report to Gu Chenan and Yu Hongyan.

After killing the real Shun'an last time, Gu Chen'an threw the person into a dry well, which happened to be seen by the young eunuch from Yunlian Palace. So Gu Chen'an threatened him not to tell anyone, otherwise he would kill him, and also asked Yu Hongyan to put a Gu on him.

In order to survive, he could only listen to Gu Chenan and do things for him.

Gu Chenan was very cautious. He knew that he was most likely being targeted, so he didn't dare go out again and sent the young eunuch.

"how?"

The young eunuch said tremblingly: "I saw Concubine Zhao enter the man's room, and laughter could be heard from inside from time to time. Oh, and I also saw Concubine Zhao's maid wearing Concubine Zhao's clothes and returning to the main courtyard of Zhaohua Palace. After the emperor went there, he said he had gone to bed..."

Yu Hongyan's eyes widened instantly, and a light flashed in her eyes.

"You mean, Shen Qingyan stayed in that wild man's room?"

The little eunuch nodded quickly, "Exactly."

Yu Hongyan became more and more excited. She held Gu Chen'an's hand and said, "Shun'an, did you hear that? That bitch couldn't bear the loneliness and openly met with a wild man. What do you think about me going to tell the emperor now and bringing people to catch the adulterer?"

Although the young eunuch on the side lowered his head, his eyes were rolling around. He immediately noticed the clasped hands of Yu Hongyan and Gu Chenan, and then quickly lowered his eyes, pretending that he saw nothing.

Little did he know that his subtle little movement had already been noticed by Gu Chen'an.

Gu Chenan withdrew his hand as if unintentionally, and persuaded Yu Hongyan in a gentle tone.

"Sir, this matter is still under discussion. How about we observe and then make a decision?"

Yu Hongyan frowned, seeming dissatisfied.

"But now is a really good opportunity. No, I will go tell the emperor now."

After Yu Hongyan finished speaking, she couldn't wait to call the palace maid in to help her wash and change her clothes, as she was going to the Yangxin Palace.

Gu Chenan saw it and knew that he could no longer persuade him, and felt a sense of mockery in his heart.

Such an idiot, she would have killed herself without him having to do anything.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

It was late at night, but Gu Beihuai had not yet slept. The candlelight stretched his shadow out.

He was originally going to sleep, but Shen Qingyan went to bed early. He was in a depressed mood, so he returned to the Yangxin Palace to review memorials.

Su Peichang saw it all and felt extremely anxious.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. You should rest quickly. Be careful not to overwork yourself."

Gu Beihuai glanced at him coldly and continued marking.

Su Peichang shrank his neck and dared not say anything more.

But after a while, he couldn't help it again.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late and colder. You should go to bed early. Otherwise, Concubine Zhao will be heartbroken if she knows you've been staying up all this time."

Gu Beihuai finally put down the red pen and looked up at him.

"If you feel cold and tired, you can go to sleep first."

Su Peichang was shocked and immediately knelt down to apologize.

Shufeng winked at him and told him to get out quickly.

Su Peichang was quick-witted and knew that if he stayed any longer he would only make Gu Beihuai angry, so he quietly left and prepared to have someone bring some more charcoal.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I met Yu Hongyan who came in a hurry.

"Noble Lady Yan." Su Peichang bowed respectfully.

Yu Hongyan originally wanted to pass by him directly, but changed her mind, stopped and asked in a low voice.

"How does the emperor feel now?"

Su Peichang was slightly stunned, thinking that she came to Gu Beihuai to win his favor. He also knew that Gu Beihuai didn't like her at all, so he pretended to sigh and said, "The emperor is in a bad mood, please come another day."

He has made it very clear, the emperor is in a bad mood and definitely doesn't want to see you, so you'd better leave.

However, Yu Hongyan not only did not retreat, but her eyes almost lit up.

Great! If I see Shen Qingyan cheating again when I’m in a bad mood, won’t I be furious and banish her to the cold palace?

Thinking of this, Yu Hongyan took off the jade bracelet on her wrist without any hesitation and stuffed it into Su Peichang's hand, urging him urgently.

"Eunuch Su, please tell him that I have something urgent to discuss with the Emperor."

"This……"

Su Peichang looked at the jade bracelet in his hand, then looked at Gu Beihuai's figure reflected in the window.

After hesitating for a moment, he resolutely put the jade bracelet into his sleeve.

"Please wait a moment, Lady Yan. I will pass the message on right away."

As the saying goes, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. This jade bracelet is of excellent quality, so don't waste it.

Shuofeng saw Su Peichang coming back and winked at him again.

However, even though his eyelids were twitching, Su Peichang ignored him. Instead, he put on a respectful and flattering smile and said to Gu Beihuai.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yan wants to see you. She is outside the door."

Gu Beihuai slowly raised his eyes, his tone still cold, but it hit Su Peichang's weak spot directly.

"What did you collect? Bring it here."

Su Peichang's body shook and he almost lost his balance.

How did the emperor know?

Even though he was confused and frightened, he still presented the jade bracelet tremblingly and kowtowed to admit his mistake immediately.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am obsessed with money. I deserve to die. I really deserve to die!"

After kowtowed a few times and seeing that Gu Beihuai didn't respond, he slapped himself in the face.

"The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die!"

The sharpness in Gu Beihuai's eyes was like a sharp knife. Even though Su Peichang didn't look up, he felt that he had been stabbed through.

Fortunately, at this moment, an anxious female voice made him feel greatly relieved.
