Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 166
Qingzhi looked at Qingdai who was in a hurry, and asked a little strangely: "What are you doing here?"

Seeing them heaving a sigh of relief, Qing Dai stopped her hurried steps and said, "I heard that the empress's birthday party has already ended, but you and the master have not come back for a long time, so I am a little worried."

Lu Wanning smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll go to the Imperial Garden for a walk."

After entering the Linglong Pavilion, Lu Wanning drank the hot tea that Qing Dai had served, then yawned and went to take a nap.

Lu Wanning slept very deeply this time, and after waking up, it was almost time for dinner, Lu Wanning looked at the dim light in the room, lay on the bed for a while in a daze, and then called Qing Dai to come in and help her get dressed.

After getting dressed, Lu Wanning simply pulled her hair up, took out a book and started to read it.

About half an hour later, Zhou Man came in with a food box in a hurry, and after handing the food box to Qing Dai, Zhou Man said to Lu Wanning: "Master, I heard some news that I don't know if it's true or not. "

"what news?"

Zhou Man said: "The news said that something happened to His Royal Highness the Prince."

Lu Wanning frowned slightly when she heard the words. When she saw the prince in the imperial garden at noon, wasn't the prince still well?But at that time, the prince had only a young eunuch with him. If something happened to His Royal Highness, would it be at that time?

"What happened?" Lu Wanning asked Zhou Man.

Zhou Man said: "I heard people say that His Highness the Crown Prince seems to have fallen into the lake...the person is gone."

Zhou Man himself was not very sure about what Zhou Man said, after all, the person who told him the news was also not very sure, and the person who told him the news also heard it from others, and he himself did not see His Royal Highness disappear with his own eyes.

Moreover, there is no definite news from the palace at the moment, so he doesn't know whether the news is nonsense or true.

He felt that the fact that His Royal Highness fell into the lake and drowned in broad daylight was a bit unbelievable.

That was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, not some inconspicuous person in the palace, how could he fall into the lake and drown in broad daylight?
Lu Wanning frowned a little. She thought of His Highness the Crown Prince she met at noon, and felt a bad feeling in her heart.

Looking at the food laid out on the table, Lu Wanning lost her appetite, so she just picked up two chopsticks and asked someone to carry it down.

As soon as the food on the table was removed, Eunuch Yuan En from Jianzhang Palace came to the door.

"Eunuch Yuanen, why are you here?" Zhou Man greeted him with a smile.

Yuan En's complexion was not very good-looking, but he still forced out a smile and said, "The emperor asked the younger one to invite Zhuang Concubine to go to Fengyi Palace."

Knowing that Yuan En came to invite her to Fengyi Palace, Lu Wanning didn't ask any more questions, and didn't redress her makeup. She just put on a thick cloak and went out with Yuan En.

On the way to Fengyi Palace, Yuan En waited for a long time without waiting for Lu Wanning to speak, so he took the initiative to speak to Lu Wanning and said: "Mrs. Trust Concubine Zhuang, you came to Concubine Zhuang just to ask about the situation."

Lu Wanning nodded, and thanked Yuan En: "Thank you, Mr. Yuan En, for your suggestion."

As soon as Lu Wanning entered Fengyi Palace, the empress rushed towards her like crazy, "You bitch!"

Although Lu Wanning reacted quickly and hid for a while, the queen grabbed her arm.

"The Empress!"

"master!"

The people in the hall who came to their senses and Qing Dai and others rushed forward to pull the empress away, but the empress held Lu Wanning's arm tightly with both hands, and those people could not pull her away without hurting the empress.

While struggling to pinch Lu Wanning's neck, the queen scolded Lu Wanning angrily: "Say, is it Cong'er that you bitch killed?"

"Queen!" Luo Chengjing looked at the mad queen and said coldly, "Let go!"

When the queen heard Luo Chengjing's cold voice, she froze for a moment, the strength in her hands loosened slightly, and the palace people took the opportunity to quickly pull the queen away.

Luo Chengjing walked up to Lu Wanning, looked down at the wound on Lu Wanning's hand that was scratched by the Queen's nails and the red scratches on her wrist, although the expression on her face was still gloomy, but her tone was a little softer, and said: "Let me first The imperial doctor will help you treat the wound."

Lu Wanning shook her head and said: "It's just a minor injury, it's not a problem. The emperor came to ask the concubine to ask the concubine about seeing the prince in the imperial garden at noon, right?"

When Luo Chengjing heard Lu Wanning say this, he didn't insist anymore, but nodded, and said: "Yes, you and I have a good talk about the situation when you saw His Highness the Crown Prince at noon."

"Okay." After Lu Wanning responded, she began to talk to Luo Chengjing about what happened when she saw His Highness the Crown Prince at noon.

In fact, there was nothing to say. She only spoke a few words with His Royal Highness at noon, and the two separated.

Luo Chengjing nodded after listening to what Lu Wanning said, and asked again: "Did you meet other people when you left the imperial garden?"

Lu Wanning shook her head and said, "When I return to the emperor, my concubine will not meet anyone else."

Luo Chengjing frowned when he heard the words, but he didn't ask any more questions, but said to Lu Wanning: "Okay, I understand, you can go back first."

As soon as Luo Chengjing finished speaking, he was strongly opposed by the queen.

"No, Your Majesty, Cong'er is your only son, how could you let his murderer go so easily?"

Looking at the yelling queen, Luo Chengjing's suppressed emotions turned into impatience.He ordered to the palace servants in the palace: "Take the queen back to your bedroom."

Liuli responded, and said softly to the queen while exerting a little force in her hand: "Young lady, go back and rest first, the emperor is here, and I will definitely investigate this matter to the bottom."

"Don't touch me, I won't go back to the bedroom!" The queen struggled and said sharply.

"Empress Empress..." Liuli was about to persuade her a few more words, when suddenly the little eunuch reported from outside.

"Your Majesty, Empress An is here."

Lu Wanning raised her eyebrows slightly, and chose not to leave for the time being between leaving and not leaving.

Luo Chengjing glanced at Lu Wanning who was still standing there, said nothing, but said to the little eunuch who came in to report: "Let her in."

After An Concubine came in, she didn't seem to notice that her clothes were disheveled, like a madwoman-like queen, she calmly saluted Luo Chengjing, and said, "I have seen the emperor."

Luo Chengjing stood there and looked at An Bin indifferently. After a long while, he said, "Did the prince be called to the lakeside by you today?"

"If you go back to the emperor, it is indeed the concubine who asked the prince to go there."
