After the female supporting role is quickly put on, she is full of charm

Chapter 164 The Skinny Horse's Second Daughter 36

"In the years before my mother passed away, my father didn't even want to see me. Only now that I'm older, he began to recall my mother's kindness and began to care about me."

Fang Cheyun's voice echoed throughout the hall.

He looked at the portrait of his biological mother without shedding tears, but Azhi could feel his sadness.

Even though I know Fang Cheyun is a good actor.

But Azhi knew that he was truly expressing his tenderness.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince, please don't be too sad. The Imperial Concubine doesn't want to see you sad. All mothers in the world hope that their children will be safe and sound."

"Thank you for your comfort, Miss Second."

Fang Cheyun stood up and inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner.

Ah Zhi stood up and caught a glimpse of an extra corner under the painting.

If you don't look closely, you can't see it.

"Second Prince, I think I saw something under the painting."

"thing?"

Fang Cheyun's eyes fell on the bottom of the portrait, but he didn't notice anything unusual.

"No."

At this time, Azhi stepped forward and raised his hand to touch the bottom of the portrait.

The portrait and the scroll are made up of two layers.

In front of Fang Cheyun, Azhi took out a letter.

"Letter, Second Prince, there is a letter under this portrait."

Before Ah Zhi could turn around and hand the letter to Fang Cheyun.

Fang Cheyun's eyes were red.

He stepped forward and took the letter with some trembling.

The words "My son is well" were written on the envelope.

This is a letter written by Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian to Fang Cheyun.

But Fang Cheyun hasn't found it in all these years.

"My mother left in a hurry. I was still young and didn't understand the separation of life and death. My mother's personal maid told me that my mother personally left a letter for me, but she hid it."

"I didn't expect it to be hidden behind the portrait. No wonder my mother burned all the portraits and only left this one for me."

Fang Cheyun raised his head and looked at Ah Zhi intently.

"Thank you Miss Tuesday."

"You are too polite, Second Prince. This is the letter that the Imperial Concubine left for you. Please open it and take a look."

"it is good."

After all, it was a letter left by Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian for Fang Cheyun.

Azhi didn't go forward to join in the fun.

But Fang Cheyun was already in tears after reading the letter.

Azhi, who was standing by, handed over the handkerchief helplessly.

"Second Prince, what's wrong with you?"

Facing the fragrant handkerchief handed over by Azhi.

Fang Cheyun was stunned for a moment but did not refuse. He just reached out to take the handkerchief, but unexpectedly their fingertips touched.

"what."

Ah Zhi was seen holding her hands with a blushing face, biting her lower lip lightly, and lowering her head, not daring to look at Fang Cheyun.

"I'm sorry, Second Miss, I offended you, please don't blame me."

Compared to the domineering and strong Fang Qingyu.

Fang Cheyun's gentleness and modesty make it easier for people to like him.

In the memory, Fang Cheyun chose Wei Wan.

Because he wanted to compete with Fang Qingyu for the throne.

You have to know that the death of Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian was not simply due to illness.

"It's getting late outside. I'll take the Second Miss back to Wutong Palace."

"If you stay out for too long, Changle will probably go crazy with worry."

Cleverly change the subject to avoid embarrassing Azhi.

Ah Zhi nodded towards Fang Cheyun.

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

There was indeed a commotion in Wutong Palace.

The third princess returned to Wutong Palace but found that Azhi had not returned yet.

She had a real tantrum.

I was afraid that something might have happened to Ah Zhi because he didn’t come back.

I didn't bring many palace servants with me when I went out today.

He left a little eunuch for Azhi.

"Caixia, it's so late and Ningning hasn't come back yet. Please send someone to look for her."

"what happened?"

Today, the Queen summoned not only the Third Princess but also Fang Qingyu.

The brother and sister left Fengqi Palace together.

Fang Qingyu originally wanted to take this opportunity to meet Azhi.

I didn't expect to hear that Azhi was missing.

The third princess said with a little uneasiness, "Ningning came with me to appreciate the flowers today, but I didn't expect that my mother would call me away halfway."

"I left a eunuch to accompany Ningning, thinking that if Ningning got tired of admiring the flowers, she would naturally return to Wutong Palace. I never thought that Ningning has not returned yet."

Seeing the anxiety and helplessness on the third princess' face, Fang Qingyu knew that he could not blame her.

But he couldn't help but say, "Ms. Zhou Er has only been in the palace for a few days, so she doesn't know much about what's going on in the palace. Don't worry, let someone look for her carefully."

"Oh no, Princess. The eunuch who followed Miss Zhou Er is dead."

"what?"

The third princess was so frightened that her legs went weak and she almost fell down.

When she came to her senses, she grabbed Caixia's arms tightly and asked anxiously, "Did you make a mistake? Why did that little eunuch die?"

"The young eunuch was called Xiao Zhouzi. He was sent to Wutong Palace at the beginning of the year and was found drowned in a dry well."

Fang Qingyu was also shocked.

There are endless fights in this palace, and there are countless lonely souls.

Whenever I think about the delicate Azhi, something happened to her.

He forced himself to suppress the panic in his heart.

"Changle, calm down first."

"calm?"

The third princess said excitedly, "Brother, how can you expect me to stay calm? If something really happens to Ningning, I will definitely let everyone be buried with her."

"No, I have to go find Ningning myself. I can't let anything happen to Ningning."

During this period of time, the third princess regarded Azhi as extremely important.

The third princess must go find Azhi herself.

Fang Qingyu decided to go with her.

"I will accompany you to look for it."

But the two of them had just walked out of Wutong Palace.

I saw Ah Zhi wearing Fang Cheyun's coat, and the two of them appeared side by side on the palace road.

"Ning Ning!"

The joy of recovering what she had lost made the third princess not think too much about it.

She rushed up excitedly and hugged Azhi.

"I'm glad you're okay. I'm glad Ningning is back. Why are you with my second brother?"

The third princess saw that Ah Zhi was fine, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, Third Princess. I'm fine. I just got lost. The eunuch you left behind disappeared today. I accidentally met the Second Prince, and he was kind enough to send me back to Wutong Palace."

I heard Azhi say that it was Fang Cheyun who sent her back.

The third princess thanked Fang Cheyun and said, "Thank you, second brother."

"Nothing, we just met."

Fang Qingyu on the side had a very ugly expression on his face.

Because Azhi was still wearing Fang Cheyun's coat.

Fang Cheyun looked at Fang Qingyu with provocation in his eyes.

"So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also in Wutong Palace. I have met the Crown Prince."

Ah Zhi came to his senses and stepped forward to salute respectfully.

"My daughter has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

Azhi in front calls Fang Cheyun "His Royal Highness the Second Prince".

Now she calls him the Second Prince affectionately.

He was somewhat submissive and distant towards himself.

But he was wearing Fang Cheyun's coat.

By comparing the two, we can see how close they are.

A sour taste spread in my heart.

Fang Qingyu nodded gently, "Get up."

He walked forward and took off the coat from Azhi's shoulders.

"Miss Zhou Er, you don't know that there are countless eyes in the palace. You can't wear a foreign man's coat. If someone with ulterior motives sees you, it will probably affect your reputation."

"Your Highness?"

On the way back just now, Ah Zhi felt a little cold, so Fang Cheyun kindly put his coat on her.

Now look at Fang Qingyu throwing the coat to Fang Cheyun.

Azhi opened his mouth but dared not refute anything.

I saw my coat was thrown back to me.

Fang Cheyun didn't feel angry at all.

He just calmly put his coat back on.

The third princess's mood has stabilized.

"Caixia, you must tell mother about Xiao Zhouzi's death and investigate thoroughly."

"Little Zhouzi?"

How come someone else died?

Azhi showed some doubt on his face.

At this time, the third princess said, "The eunuch I left for you today drowned. There is something strange about this."

"I asked him to take you to appreciate the flowers and then come back, but I never thought he would lose you and drown in the water."

"It must be something unusual."

Of course it is unusual.

There is someone behind this who wants to harm me.

I just don't know who did it.

"Third Princess, I have one more thing to tell you."

"What's the matter?"

Azhi looked at Fang Qingyu beside him with some hesitation.

I noticed Azhi's hesitation.

The third princess patted the back of her hand and said, "I will confiscate it. My brother is fine with it. You can rest assured."

Azhi nodded slightly.

"I'm afraid someone has set me up for getting lost today. The Second Prince told me that someone whispered in your ear that there was a woman on Xuanwu Road who was trying to seduce me."

"It just so happened that the eunuch you left for me took me to the palace road on Xuanwu Road."

"If I had not been careful and cautious and turned away from Xuanwu Road based on my memory, I would have run into your Majesty's imperial chariot."

I heard that Ah Zhi almost ran into Emperor Wen.

The third princess's face suddenly changed.

Fang Qingyu on the side also had an unpleasant expression on his face.

The third princess said with a pale face, "Today, my father beat a palace maid to death on Xuanwu Road..."

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn and silent.

The third princess is not an ignorant girl.

She grew up in the palace and knew too well what tactics and traps were.

Someone plotted to frame Ah Zhi.

"We must not let this matter go. If the person behind this gets what he wants, my mother and I will be implicated. You might be the one being beaten to death today."

She stepped forward, held Ah Zhi's hand and said firmly, "It was me who allowed you to enter the palace to be the princess's companion. I promised to protect your safety. Don't worry."

"Princess, this matter is directed at me, how can I trouble you and your majesty?"

Fang Qingyu said, "This is not a problem. If something happens to you, it will cause the dissatisfaction of the emperor. At the same time, Changle and the queen mother cannot wash away their ties. This matter must be reported to the queen mother."

"On the surface, they are targeting you, but there are too many people involved. Who knows who they are using you to deal with."

"Yes, Ningning, don't think too much."

I heard the Third Princess and Fang Qingyu say this.

Ahzhi could only nod meekly.

"Okay, I am willing to follow the princess to report to the Queen."

Others couldn't guess who did it.

But Azhi had a rough idea in his mind.

The main hall of Qifeng Palace.

The queen was ready to go to bed, but she never expected that Nanny Zhu would report back that the third princess had brought Azhi to ask for a meeting.

In order to protect her spoiled and willful daughter, the queen changed into plain clothes and stood up.

"Let the two children come in."

The third princess looked aggrieved as soon as she came in.

"Mother, you have to take care of your daughter. Someone wants to use Ningning to harm her."
