Chapter 240 Know the reason
Qingyun Palace Hu Shanxiang's Residence
"Master, the Princess of Han County wants to see you." Yan Nan walked in and reported.
"Princess of the Han County Prince?" Hu Shanxiang was puzzled. She had almost no contact with this princess. The few times they met were either at palace banquets or on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month. They had never spoken alone. Why did she suddenly ask for a meeting? However, Hu Shanxiang could not afford to think too much. She was already outside the door, so she couldn't refuse to see her. "Then please come in."
"Your concubine Wang pays homage to the Crown Grand Consort. I wish you all the best." Wang Jundai bowed to Hu Shanxiang.
"Sister, please get up quickly." Hu Shanxiang gave Yan Nan a wink, and Yan Nan immediately helped her up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Jundai sat aside.
"I wonder if my sister has come here for something urgent?" Hu Shanxiang really couldn't think of anything the two could talk about, so she had to ask straight to the point. After all, from the standpoints of all parties, the King of Han and the Eastern Palace were two opposing sides, and it would be bad for her to have too much interaction with them.
"This... I don't know what to say for the moment. I don't know how to start this conversation..." Wang Jundai seemed embarrassed and looked at the palace maids around her.
How could Hu Shanxiang not understand this? She immediately said, "All of you go down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration." Wang Jundai thanked.
After everyone left, Hu Shanxiang asked again: "Can you tell me now?"
"I am ashamed to say this. I have been married to His Royal Highness the Prince for a long time. I am afraid you have heard that before His Royal Highness the Prince married me, he had a concubine whom he loved very much. I was just the concubine he married to silence the elders."
"This is a matter between you and your wife. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to do so..."
"Your Highness has misunderstood. I am not asking you to do anything. I just heard that His Royal Highness had some feelings for this concubine... but then he met you and he doted on you. I came here so suddenly because I wanted to learn from you. What did you do back then?"
"Ah?" Hu Shanxiang never thought that she was here to ask this.
"Your Majesty, could you please tell me? Or is there any other way? I am not smart, so why don't you write it down for me?" As she said that, Wang Jundai pulled Hu Shanxiang to the desk.
Hu Shanxiang was confused, she had no idea what was going on when she was dragged here. Wang Jundai quickly ground ink for her and handed her a pen.
Wang Jundai suddenly said in Hu Shanxiang's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Your Majesty, this is what Sister Yunyue asked me to give you." Then she handed something to Hu Shanxiang.
"Then what are you asking me to write..." Hu Shanxiang also asked in a low voice.
"You can write whatever you want. I'm just looking for an excuse. Besides, I don't care about Zhu Zhanqi's favor. He can like whoever he wants."
"This... is fine." Hu Shanxiang scribbled something and handed it to her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you so much." Wang Jundai said this in a normal voice.
The two pretended to chat for a few more sentences, and then Wang Jundai left.
Only then did Hu Shanxiang open the thing she gave her. It was a letter from He Yunyue, saying that Zhu Zhanji was investigating the fire in their house that year.
Why would Zhu Zhanji investigate that matter? Did he hear something? But who would bring up this matter except the person involved...
By the way, my eldest sister said this the last time she came.
