Chapter 624
The corner of Jing Rong's mouth curved into a mocking arc. "As soon as Mrs. Li died, the queen mother angered the prime minister. They killed each other, and we reap the benefits of the fisherman. Isn't it safer than you to get the support of the queen mother?"

"This..." The fifth prince showed a look of embarrassment. "Although we discussed this before, I always feel that even if Mrs. Li dies, the Queen Mother will just wait for the opportunity. After all, she is the Queen Mother, not an ordinary woman."

He also didn't expect the Empress Dowager to have such deep feelings for Li Shi, that she changed her original intention to assist him and also rescue Li Shi, how could he miss this opportunity!

Even though Jing Rong once promised him to get rid of the fourth prince, but now things have changed, he doubts Jing Rong's loyalty, so naturally it is impossible to trust him as before.

Jing Rong looked at the fifth prince calmly, and suddenly said: "I'm afraid you don't trust me anymore, so you made such a bad move and changed your mind temporarily."

The fifth prince was startled, and put on a look of anxious explanation on his face. "...How could it be? Jing Rong, you're overthinking. You have advised me all these years and worked hard for me. This prince will always remember it in his heart. Even if he doubts Quan Cai, who has been with me since childhood, he will not doubt you." Woolen cloth!

Quan Cai is just an orphan, he will die if he leaves.

But Jing Rong is full of secrets!Who dares to use such a person with confidence?
Jing Rong smiled, noncommittal.

The atmosphere in the carriage was suddenly awkward and tense.

After a while, the Fifth Prince couldn't help explaining again. "Your current official position is too small to be an official of the third rank. If I recommend the genius doctor again to save Mrs. Li, I will ask the queen mother to propose to the emperor to withdraw the position of secretary of the Ministry of punishment and give it to you.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice belongs to the prime minister, and the queen mother hates the prime minister because of Li, so she will definitely comply with my request. "

Seeing that Jing Rong remained indifferent as always, he deliberately sighed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you the truth, I fell in love with a woman, but she is just a maid, and I want to marry her as my sidekick." Concubine is impossible. I can only pray for the Queen Mother to be merciful."

Half-truth, half-false, he doesn't believe that Jing Rong can't be fooled!
Then Jing Rong raised his eyelids and looked at the Fifth Prince and asked, "Which maidservant? Tell me, I'll help you kidnap the golden house to hide your beauty. What kind of side concubine will you marry? It will make the princess unhappy,"

The fifth prince pretended to be angry. "Jingrong, what are you talking about? You know that I only married the princess to gain the support of the prime minister, but who knows that the prime minister also has ambitions that made me miscalculate, and made me feel sorry for my beloved."

"Beloved? It's so unbelievable that a dignified prince falls in love with a maidservant, so I can't believe it."

Seeing that Jing Rong is not easy to fool, the fifth prince smiled and asked back: "I still can't figure out how you fell in love with your wife." Seeing Jing Rong's silence, he thought he hit the opponent's vital point, and asked tentatively: "Jing Rong, if the maid I fell in love with was your maid, would you bear the pain and give up?"

Jing Rong looked at the fifth prince and slightly hooked his lips. "That depends on who it is."

The fifth prince joked with a smile: "You are too stingy, I just ask you for a maid, you are reluctant."

Jing Rong said with a calm face: "Of course I don't want to part with it. You know that the maid beside me is not an ordinary person, so it's not easy to get it."

The Fifth Prince's smile froze instantly.

Jing Rong reached out and knocked on the table, looked at the Fifth Prince and suddenly continued: "But if you ask, I will naturally be willing."

The fifth prince's stiff smile instantly returned to normal. "I knew Jing Rong that you have always been generous to this prince." The conversation turned serious and asked: "Where is the genius doctor now?" Jing Rong was a little uncertain about the answer in his heart.

Jing Rong looked at the fifth prince and smiled meaningfully. "Since you want the genius doctor to show up and rescue Mrs. Li, then...as you wish."

The Fifth Prince laughed silently. "You have to make proper arrangements for that scene. It is reasonable for him to show up, and don't let the prime minister suspect me of the prince."

Jing Rong smiled and twitched the corner of his mouth. "Don't worry, I've already thought about it for you for the dead ghost, so I'll choose... how about someone from the Grand Master's Mansion?"

"Grand Master's Mansion?" The fifth prince's eyes showed doubts.

Jing Rong explained: "Although the queen mother asked the fourth prince to send people to the Republic of China, she ordered the people from the Grand Master's Mansion to go secretly just in case. The people sent by the fourth prince and the prime minister killed each other. Fortunately, the people in the master's office were not involved." That's because he ordered the disciples of the Xueshamen to protect him secretly.

The fifth prince suddenly realized. "You mean to let the people in the Grand Master's Mansion accidentally discover the whereabouts of the genius doctor and bring the genius doctor back. This plan is very clever, wonderful!" He happily patted his thigh twice.He had already learned from the information obtained by Quancai that the Grand Master's Mansion had also sent people to the Republic of Shen.

Jing Rong looked at the fifth prince with cold eyes, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Everything is under control, which is good.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Haiyue stood aside, watching the maidservants serve dishes back and forth.

Zhuo Nan sat at the table and glanced sideways at Zhuo Ran, who was opposite, and ordered to the maids who served the dishes: "The fifth princess is so filial, this meal is only vegetarian today, you put all the meat dishes and delicious dishes here side." Her fingers tapped on the table in front of her.

Zhuo Ran: "..." She said polite words, words of face!

The serving maids looked at Zhuo Nan in embarrassment, and peeped at the expressionless Zhuo Ran in fear, not knowing what to do.Help-like eyes turned to Haiyue standing aside.

Haiyue said indifferently: "Follow Madam Jing's order to serve vegetables." Yu Guang noticed Zhuo Ran's instantly stiff expression and felt disdainful.Since he boasted about Haikou because the Prime Minister's wife was unconscious and had a poor appetite, he should do what he said.

The maids continued to serve the dishes with a sigh of relief.

Zhuo Ran saw that the maids in front of her really put tofu and green vegetables in front of her, big fish and big meat in front of Zhuo Nan, she wished she could rush over and bite off a piece of meat from each other's body to relieve her hatred, but she couldn't, I can only choose, endure, endure!Tolerate! !
Zhuo Nan looked at Zhuo Ran's stiff face, smiled with his lips curled up, and started to have lunch.

I am used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, and served with bland tofu and vegetables, Zhuo Ran really lost his appetite after a few mouthfuls.Annoyed in his heart, he looked at Zhuo Nan, who was opposite, eating with relish.

After lunch, Zhuo Ran watched the maids remove the dishes, clear the table, and serve tea and snacks.

Zhuo Nan on the opposite side is drinking tea happily.

The more I looked at her, the more I felt it was an eyesore, and suddenly I felt bored in the room, so I got up and walked outside.Staying in the same room with Zhuo Nan again, she was afraid that she could not help but lift the table.

Haiyue saw Zhuo Ran walking out, her eyes darkened and she immediately followed.

Zhuo Ran turned her head and stared at Haiyue coldly, feeling agitated as if being held as a prisoner.
