Chapter 210: Mother's Hidden Secret

When Chen Ning left the Princess' Mansion, he made up his mind that he would not delay the opportunity to deal with the Yang family just because Concubine Yan did not help him take over. This time, he finally caught the handle of the Yang family. How could he waste it?

So Yang Jian must continue this move.

By time, in another month, Yang Jian's face will be withered, like a ghost. That will be the time for the Yang family to suffer disaster.

......

Chen Ning finished his rest and continued to return to the palace to guard. When he was not busy, he went to the Tiger Guard to check the arrangement of the spy.

Everything seemed to be in order.

On this day, Chen Ning went to the Princess's Mansion to pay homage to her mother. Sima Qing saw Chen Ning and smiled and said, "Child, I happen to have something to look for you."

"What's the matter?" Chen Ning asked curiously.

Sima Qing said, "This girl Qingyi is not young anymore, so I want to tell her about the marriage."

Chen Ning was stunned, but he didn't expect that this would be the case.

He and Ji Yue and her childhood sweethearts, treat her as their own sister, and naturally they also care about her marriage.

"Okay, is there anyone who chose my mother?" Chen Ning asked.

Sima Qing nodded and smiled, "This person's name is Kong Xuyun. You may have never heard of it. He is the direct descendant of the Kong family. He is just young and has excellent literary talent."

"The Kong family is a great Confucian and Taoist master. If they marry, Qingyi will not let Qingyi suffer. But it depends on the meaning of Qingyi and Hong Mian Aunt. If Qingyi is unwilling, then you can only find a good match." Chen Ning said.

Sima Qing smiled and said nothing.

Speaking of Ji Yue Qingyi, Chen Ning didn't see her and asked, "Where is Qingyi?"

"I felt a little uncomfortable, so I didn't let her come." Sima Qing explained, and said again: "I heard that Yang Jian was already deeply poisoned. If this move is good, even if the Yang family does not die, they will lose their skin. Once something happens to the Yang family, other aristocratic families will inevitably hit the dogs in the water. This time, the Yang family must pay the price."

Chen Ning agreed: "Don't worry, Mother, the Yang family occupies a high position and has many enemies. If something happens, people will inevitably attack them."

"If the Yang family is destroyed, the Xiao family will be the next one! These two families harmed the Shen family and let them pay their blood debts and blood, so that all the unjustly deaths in the Shen family can rest in peace." Sima Qing showed evil spirits on her face.

Chen Ning hesitated for a moment and did not ask what he wanted to say.

When something happened to the Shen family, although the Yang family and the Xiao family were the masterminds and other aristocratic families were taking the blame, the person who eventually led to this incident was Emperor Sima Zhou.

If Sima Zhou had no intention of killing, how could he not keep the old and young people of the Shen family?

But Sima Zhou was nominally his uncle, and his mother didn't mention asking him to take revenge, so Chen Ning couldn't say much, so he could only take one step at a time.

After staying in the Princess's Mansion for more than half an hour, Chen Ning went out.

When I got home, I didn’t expect that Zhu Hongmian was there too.

"Aunt Hongmian, why are you here?" Chen Ning asked.

Zhu Hongmian seemed to have a heart, so she said to Chen Ning: "Daning, you just came back from the eldest princess?"

Chen Ning nodded.

Zhu Hongmian said again: "It seems that the princess has told you that she wants to introduce a marriage to Qingyi."

"That's right! Qingyi is not young anymore, it's time to get married." Chen Ning responded.

Zhu Hongmian said, "But that girl Qingyi doesn't want to marry the direct descendant of the Kong family. I raised Qingyi. How could I not know what Qingyi thinks? She and your childhood sweetheart have been around you since childhood. Can't you tell her feelings?"

"This..." Chen Ning smiled bitterly.

He could naturally see that the two of them are now righteous brothers and sisters, and with their mother guiding them, Chen Ning was not inconvenient to say anything.

Zhu Hongmian said again: "And, the eldest princess cares about Qingyi so much, how could she not know Qingyi's thoughts? She loves Qingyi so much, so she should naturally fulfill her wish. If Qingyi could marry you, wouldn't it be a kiss? But now, she clearly knows Qingyi's thoughts, but she wants to marry Qingyi to others. Why is this? Daning, don't you be curious?"

Chen Ning was silent when he heard this.

"You are so smart, how could you not be curious? You just don't want to think deeply." Zhu Hongmian sighed.

Chen Ning nodded.

"The first time I saw the eldest princess, I felt that my concern for you was a little distant. Even if she performed well and spoke in kindly, I felt something was wrong. Because I watched you grow up and understood what it was to really care about you. Even her attitude towards Qingyi was better than that to you." Zhu Hongmian said angrily.

Chen Ning couldn't help but explain: "Maybe it was because I haven't seen you for eighteen years, or because of my fate. When Tianshi said that I was a noble person of Qinglong, I might destroy the Great Jin in the future, so Emperor Sima Zhou made up his mind to deal with the Shen family. Maybe because of this, my mother had a estrangement."

Zhu Hongmian shook her head and said, "I haven't seen her for 18 years. How can I feel alienated when I meet for the first time? As for the rumors about you, it's even more farts. Don't make excuses for yourself."

Chen Ning was silent again.

Zhu Hongmian said again: "I don't agree with Qingyi's marriage! I absolutely don't agree! In addition, what secret does the eldest princess hide? I will investigate it! I will not allow anyone to hurt you!"

After saying that, Zhu Hongmian left angrily.

Chen Ning didn't chase him, and he recalled the time he recognized his mother.

With his intelligence and talent, he naturally discovered some problems, but Chen Ning was unwilling to investigate in depth. He finally recognized his mother and did not want to destroy it.

"Mother, what secret are you hiding?" Chen Ning murmured to himself.

......

The heat has subsided and the weather has slowly turned colder.

Huo Tianguang was mourning for his mother for three months and had not returned to the palace yet, so Chen Ning continued to temporarily take charge of the Tianlong Guard, basically guarding the palace.

Since she slept with Concubine Yan, she had tasted the sweetness, and always wanted to continue her life, and always asked her confidant palace maid to secretly contact Chen Ning.

In the summer resort, Chen Ning was responsible for the arrangement of guarding and could seize the gap of patrol to pick a flower. However, there were many ears and eyes in the palace, Chen Ning would not dare to do anything randomly.

Do you really think Lao Ai is so easy to be accustomed?

That night, Chen Ning was on duty.

Your Majesty was already asleep, and Chen Ning was also sleeping in the side hall, suddenly a black shadow flashed quietly into the side hall.

Chen Ning was slightly shocked and thought it was Zhao Qingxuan, but suddenly he thought it wasn't her.

It's Concubine Yan!

She was serving in the bedroom tonight, but she never expected that she would slip over while the emperor was asleep.

"Chen Lang..."

I heard her soft call and looked lonely.

"Why are you here? It's not safe here. If it is exposed, wouldn't it be troublesome?" Chen Ning said hurriedly.

Concubine Yan replied, "Your Majesty has taken the medicine and is sleeping soundly. Don't worry. I feel pain in my heart, and I really can't find anyone to talk to you. If you send someone to find you, you won't come to see me."

Seeing that his expression was lonely, Chen Ning asked, "What's wrong?"

Concubine Yan sighed and asked, "This matter is hidden and cannot be known to outsiders. But I am too scared to die and have no place to bury me. I have been sad in my heart these days and no one has revealed it. Now for me, the only person who can speak the intimate words is you."
