Chapter 166 The Skinny Horse's Second Daughter 38
It turned out that someone was fanning the flames behind the scenes. Otherwise, Princess Cheng was just an imperial lady, how could she have the courage to frame herself in the palace?
Even though Concubine Shu is Princess Cheng's biological sister, she cannot give Princess Cheng the courage she lacks.
If the Queen finds out about this, he will be severely punished if not killed.
Ah Zhi asked with some doubt, "Someone is thinking of using Princess Cheng to frame me and make this matter bigger. Is it actually for you and the queen?"
"Correct."
The third princess nodded and picked up the teacup.
"If anything happens to you, it will definitely make Father unhappy. That day happens to be the anniversary of the death of Imperial Concubine Yuanxian."
"But it is the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, so Father must come to Qifeng Palace to rest."
"If you are really caught and convicted by the emperor, the queen mother will definitely be implicated. This is really a great way to kill three birds with one stone."
Emperor Wen is now old, and the princes in the palace are beginning to grow up.
It is normal for concubines to have ideas for the glory of their mother's family.
They wanted to pull down the queen so that they could sit on the throne.
But the Queen is not a vegetarian, so the palace will indeed be in unrest.
Things in the harem have no impact on Azhi.
She continued to accompany the third princess on a daily basis.
Three days later, Fang Changmian actually entered the palace.
Looking at Fang Changmian who stopped him.
Azhi quickly took two steps back to keep his distance.
"Your servant greets His Majesty."
Because Zhou Jingyi hit him on the face, Fang Changmian stayed at home for a while.
The wound on his face had faded, but he still covered half of his face with a mask.
In the past, Fang Changmian had good looks and countless women in the capital liked him.
Even though he had many concubines in his backyard, it still couldn't stop the women's hearts from falling for him.
This is enough to prove that he has a good appearance.
He was wearing a brocade moon robe and a white jade sachet tied around his waist.
Half of his face was covered with a silver mask to cover the wound.
Fang Changmian was amazed every time he saw Azhi.
It's so beautiful.
She has a slender figure like a willow in the wind and a delicate and charming face.
He deliberately spoke in a soft voice, "Get up quickly, Sister An Ning, it's been a long time since we last met."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Even though Azhi stood up, he still hid sideways behind Tonghua.
This made Fang Changmian look a little disappointed.
He also wanted to develop a relationship with Azhi.
Because her face had not healed a few days ago, Princess Cheng was really worried about letting him go out.
Otherwise, he would have wanted to go into the palace to see Zhou An Ning a long time ago.
If only I could marry Zhou An Ning, it would definitely be happier than being with Zhou Jingyi.
"Sister An Ning is really being polite. When I was little, I often went to the General's Mansion to play. If you hadn't grown up in the General's Mansion, you and I would have been childhood sweethearts."
Who wants to be your childhood sweetheart?
I recalled the memory of him confessing his love to Zhou Jingyi while he was on the verge of death.
Azhi almost vomited.
However, she still lowered her eyes and said reservedly, "Your Highness is really joking. You and my sister are childhood sweethearts. You are still engaged now, so I am not familiar with you."
I didn't expect Azhi to be so distant from me and avoid me like a flood or a beast.
He felt even more disappointed.
But she still said to Ah Zhi in a gentle voice, "I was just giving an analogy. Sister An Ning, you must have missed the days outside since you entered the palace. I sent some things to the palace for you."
"thing?"
Fang Changmian asked the servant to bring up clothes and jewelry.
The light blue wavy dress on the tray is very eye-catching, and the box is also opened to reveal the jewelry inside.
It turned out to be a rare sapphire, blue pearls, and blue glass earrings.
It was obviously a full set of jewelry specially matched to match this dress.
Inside was a pair of extremely fine white jade bracelets.
But Azhi shook his head gently and refused.
"No merit, no reward. Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I cannot accept it. Please take it back."
After she finished speaking, she was ready to turn around and leave with Tonghua.
Fang Changmian became anxious.
"You stop."
He walked up and actually grabbed Azhi's wrist.
"Sister An Ning, do you have any clothes or jewelry that you like? Just say the word and I'll send it to you right away."
It's really affectionate.
It’s a pity that Azhi doesn’t want to pay attention to him.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I really don't need it."
Ah Zhi wanted to struggle to break free from the confinement of Fang's long sleep.
But Fang Changmian held her tightly and refused to let go.
Ah Zhi's eyes were filled with tears as she said helplessly, "Prince, please let me go. This is the harem. It is inappropriate for you to pull and tug at a servant."
The tung flowers nearby looked very anxious.
"Prince, please let my lady go."
The noisy noise attracted Fang Cheyun.
Before he could see clearly what was happening.
Azhi's small hands were very tender and smooth. Fang Changmian's palms were sweating while the two of them were pulling each other. She took the opportunity to pull hard.
This time, I finally got rid of Fang Changmian's entanglement.
But he didn't stand firmly and took a few steps back, and fell directly into Fang Cheyun's arms.
"what."
Azhi felt the tenderness on his back.
And there was the warmth of Fang Cheyun's big hand holding her.
There was tenderness and concern in his eyes.
"Is Miss Tuesday okay?"
Ah Zhi was stunned.
"No, it's okay."
I saw Fang Cheyun actually hugging Azhi.
Fang Changmian frowned slightly and walked forward to bow towards Fang Cheyun.
"I have met His Highness the Second Highness."
But Fang Cheyun ignored him.
Fang Cheyun helped Ah Zhi stand up.
Tonghua, who was standing by, stepped forward and helped Azhi hide behind Fang Cheyun.
He then looked at Fang Changmian and asked, "Aren't you going to the palace today to pay your respects to the Queen? Why are you here?"
The drunkard doesn't mean wine.
Of course it’s for Zhou An Ning.
But these words cannot be said openly.
Fang Changmian could only answer Fang Cheyun, "I'm sorry to have frightened your Highness. At the Spring Flower Banquet, Changmian accidentally frightened Sister An Ning. Today, I just wanted to send her something to show my appreciation."
Hearing the other party calling Azhi "Sister An Ning", Fang Cheyun's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction.
He just felt that this title made him very uncomfortable.
I have to call myself Miss Tuesday.
He actually called her "sister" all the time.
A hint of coldness appeared on Fang Cheyun's face.
"Fang Changmian, you are a member of the royal family. If you are so ignorant of etiquette, you will only embarrass your uncle."
"Ms. Zhou Er is still unmarried, and you unmarried men and women need to be on guard. Who asked you to come to the palace to make trouble?"
"Do you really think that if the Third Princess isn't here, no one will support Miss Zhou Er?"
Fang Cheyun usually has the gentlest temperament.
He was really angry today.
There was a hint of panic in Fang Changmian's eyes.
The other party is a real prince.
Even though his father is Prince Cheng, he cannot compare with Prince Longsun.
Fang Changmian lowered his head and said, "Your Highness is right. It was all because of my anxiety. Please don't blame me, Your Highness and Sister An Ning."
After all, Prince Cheng is his uncle.
Fang Cheyun had no intention of putting Fang Changmian to sleep.
What's more, Azhi is an unmarried and innocent girl.
If the news that Fang Changmian pulled her around were to get out, it would only affect her reputation.
He could only give the other party a brief warning before he fell asleep.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's leave the palace early."
Seeing that Fang Cheyun wanted to drive him out of the palace.
Fang Changmian looked at Azhi with a little reluctance.
"Sister An Ning, please accept these clothes and jewelry. I asked someone to find them especially for you. You will look great in them."
He didn't want his kindness to be wasted.
But what he thought was his good intentions were worthless in Azhi's eyes.
Azhi pretended to be frightened.
She was hiding behind Fang Cheyun, her body trembling slightly, her eyes deliberately reddened and her voice trembling a little.
"No, that's not necessary. You should give the things to your sister. Your sister is your fiancée."
"fiancée?"
Fang Cheyun raised his eyebrows with interest.
When Tonghua saw that Azhi was frightened by Fang Changmian, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.
She immediately said indignantly, "Your Highness, you don't know that Prince Cheng and the eldest lady are already engaged."
"I just don't know what happened to the prince. He actually came to give Miss a gift. If this matter gets out, others will think that the second Miss is trying to steal the eldest Miss's husband."
When he heard that Fang Changmian and Zhou Jingyi were engaged, he actually ran to the palace to give Zhou An Ning a gift.
Fang Cheyun looked at Fang Changmian with a slightly cold voice.
"Fang Changmian, as the prince of King Cheng, I don't want to say anything too harsh for the sake of my uncle, but please don't embarrass yourself."
"Xiao Xuzi, go deliver these things to the General's Mansion and say they are gifts from Prince Cheng to Miss Zhou."
Seeing Fang Cheyun was about to give his things to Zhou Jingyi.
Fang Changmian wanted to stop it with a look of heartache on his face.
"Second Prince, these things are from me for Sister An Ning."
"Shut up."
As long as I hear the other party call Azhi "Sister An Ning".
Fang Cheyun felt a wave of disgust.
"I advise you to leave the palace as soon as possible, and don't let me ask Prince Cheng to invite you."
Prince Cheng had always disliked Fang Changmian. If Prince Cheng really came, he would definitely be beaten when he returned to the palace.
Fang Changmian swallowed his saliva and shook his head, "No need, Changmian will leave the palace now."
"Ah."
Watching Fang Changmian leave, looking back every few steps.
Fang Cheyun looked at Ah Zhi and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Miss Zhou Er. He won't dare to harass you again. I will take you back to Wutong Palace."
Today, Azhi was wearing a crimson purple silk skirt with a delicate and small purse tied around her waist.
The purse is also embroidered with a red and white brocade picture of lotus.
You can tell at a glance that it is not an embroidery made in the palace.
Maybe he was frightened by Fang Changmian.
Azhi's palm-sized face was slightly pale, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed with an indescribable sense of weakness.
"Thank you so much, Your Highness. I have encountered difficulties twice in a row, and it was Your Highness who helped me. I really have no way to repay you."
A pair of slender and delicate hands twirling a handkerchief.
It makes people think about it.
Fang Cheyun smiled at her gently.
"It's just a small favor. I hope Miss Zhou Er is fine. You are alone in the palace as a tutor for the princess, so I have to take care of you."
Ah Zhi slowly raised her head and looked into Fang Cheyun's eyes, her affectionate eyes seemed to hold a thousand words.
She took off the purse from her waist and held it tightly in her hand, her face full of shyness as she bit her lower lip.
