Chapter 113 I want to get an invitation to enter the birthday banquet of Prince Yong’s Mansion
Moreover, it is said that the prince's official business trip this time is also related to the important information provided by Su Wan'er's brother.
After thinking about it, Murong Zhi couldn't help but remind Qiu Yao:
"I will send someone to carefully watch over your mother, and nothing will go wrong for the time being. As for your sister, I will also instruct the people below not to go too far."
"As for you, from now on, just stay in your own courtyard and take care of your pregnancy. If it's not necessary, don't come out, so as to avoid another confrontation with Concubine Su."
Without her consent, Qiuyao bypassed her and asked the prince for instructions to place someone in the mansion. Murong Zhi was already somewhat dissatisfied.
She didn't care about other women. She only cared about whether Qiuyao could give birth to a child smoothly so that she could adopt it.
When Qiuyao heard this, she felt like the sky was falling.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had allowed her mother and Qiu Chan to enter the palace without permission, which made the princess unhappy.
This is hitting her.
After thinking about it, Qiu Yao could only suppress her dissatisfaction for the time being and said respectfully to Murong Zhi:
"I was wrong to arrange for my sister and mother to enter the palace without your permission. However, I did this to prevent anyone from harming the child in my belly at this time. I hope your forgiveness will be given."
"I promise that I will stay in my own courtyard and take care of my pregnancy in peace. I will follow the princess' instructions in everything."
In order to continue to rely on Mu Qingzhi, Qiuyao had to swallow this loss for the time being.
Seeing that she was quite tactful, Murong Zhi didn't say anything unpleasant. She only reminded Qiuyao that the prince's birthday would be in a few days, and she must remember to stay out of the spotlight before that and not run into Su Wan'er.
Qiuyao nodded in agreement, and at the same time, she was thinking about what gift to give to Prince Yong on his birthday. It would be best if she could please Prince Yong and release her mother and sister early.
Qiu Ning in the palace had been asking people to keep an eye on the news from Prince Yong's Mansion. Zhang and Qiu Chan had just arrived at the mansion for a few days when they were punished to do hard labor for offending the concubine, and the news soon reached Qiu Ning's ears.
At that time, Aunt Tong came to Qiu Ning in tears and begged Qiu Ning to help save Qiu Chan.
"Second Miss, I know you always have a lot of ideas and you have acquaintances outside the palace. I beg you, can you think of a way to save Chan'er? She just turned fifteen. Not only has she lost her innocence, but she is also being abused in the palace, a place that eats people and leaves no bones. I am really uneasy."
Facing Aunt Tong's crying, Qiu Ning did not seem to be very touched. Instead, she sighed and asked:
"Auntie, get up first.
I had previously advised my mother and third sister to think twice before acting, but since third sister was so determined, I couldn't stop her. Since Auntie was not optimistic about the palace, why didn't she stop third sister?
When Aunt Tong heard Qiu Ning mention this, she couldn't help but grit her teeth.
"You should blame the eldest lady. While you were away from the palace, you tricked Chan'er into going to the palace. I don't know what promises you made to her. After Chan'er came back, she was determined to go to the palace to be someone's concubine. Second lady, to be honest, I didn't agree with this matter at first. It was Qiuchan who got some medicine from somewhere and knocked me out that night. That's why I followed the people from the palace out of the palace early this morning."
Qiu Ning was shocked.
"Is there such a thing?"
When Aunt Tong said this, she couldn't help but regret not telling this matter earlier.
"That's right. Chan'er has been with me since she was a child. She is very innocent. How could she have thought of using drugs to knock me out? I suspect that the drug must have been given to her by the eldest lady, and she also told Chan'er not to tell me."
Aunt Tong couldn't help but recall that night when she and Qiu Chan had a big fight over this matter, but Qiu Chan suddenly softened her attitude at the last moment and said that she was willing to listen to her and never mention going to the palace again.
At that time, Aunt Tong thought that Qiu Chan had changed her mind after her persuasion, so she slowly took the cup of tea poured by Qiu Chan and fell into a deep sleep soon after.
But when he woke up again, the palace's carriage had already taken him away.
In the past few days, Aunt Tong has been very worried, fearing that Qiu Chan might have an accident in the palace.
As a result, after hearing the news today, I found out that Qiu Chan was indeed in trouble.
Aunt Tong could no longer sit still and hurried to find Qiu Ning to find a solution.
Qiu Ning frowned, feeling that the matter was very difficult.
"But my third sister has now become Prince Yong's concubine. If you want to bring her out, unless Prince Yong is willing to write a letter of release, otherwise, she will be a slave in the palace for the rest of her life. I think you should also know this, Auntie."
Aunt Tong naturally knew this, so she wanted Qiu Ning to help her find a solution.
"Second Miss, even if you don't consider Qiu Chan, you should still consider saving Madam. I heard that the hard labor in the palace's backyard is no easier than in the cold palace. Madam's body, how can she withstand it?"
Qiu Ning naturally knew this, but what solution could she come up with at the moment?
If Zhang and Qiu Chan had listened to advice earlier, they would not have fallen into such a big fire pit.
"Even if you don't tell me, I will try my best to rescue my mother and sister, don't worry."
Qiu Ning comforted Aunt Tong with a few words, then turned and left the palace.
She heard that Prince Yong's birthday banquet would be held in a few days, so she wanted to find Wan Zilang to see if he could get an invitation.
At the same time, the most luxurious restaurant in the capital.
Wan Zilang, along with Ye Haoyang, Su Jingan and a few other playboys, were enjoying fine food and wine while admiring the graceful dance on the stage. Their daily life was quite pleasant.
At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly opened from the outside, and a well-mannered young man walked in with a folding fan in his hand.
Wan Zilang recognized her at a glance. This was Qiu Ning, a woman disguised as a man.
He immediately dropped the chicken leg in his hand, wiped his hands on the towel, and walked forward.
"Oh, auntie, what brings you here? Is the palace going to do some shopping today?"
"Ah."
Qiu Ning said perfunctorily, took out a list from his pocket and handed it to Wan Zilang.
Wan Zilang took a look and saw the familiar shopping list, with some cloth, food and so on, all written clearly.
Wan Zilang quickly ordered his men to go to the market to buy some, and gave the servant a tael of silver, saying, "Make sure to use the best materials. If anything goes wrong, you won't be assigned this job again. Go."
The servant went down happily and bought the supplies according to the list. This was not the first time. Every time he helped Wan Zilang buy things, he would get a silver ingot as a reward. Naturally, the servant did his best.
After Qiu Ning sat down, he didn't beat around the bush with Wan Zilang and the others, and said directly that he wanted to get an invitation to Prince Yong's Mansion.
When Wan Zilang and others heard this, they were a little confused.
"Auntie, when did you become involved with Prince Yong again? His status is even more difficult to deal with than the Guo family."
Qiu Ning did not hide anything and immediately told Wan Zilang and others about her mother and sister, and said frankly that she wanted to save them from danger.
When the playboys heard this, they immediately frowned.
This is a difficult situation. Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to compete with King Yong for a woman.
That’s not all. After Qiu Ning told everyone about his next plan, everyone present was petrified.
