Chapter 175:Find a substitute
While they were playing, An Ranyue and An Yanran also came over, and brought a few other young ladies with them. They were all talking together. They were all young girls, so it was easy to get along with each other. But you could tell clearly what everyone said was true or false. They all sounded so nice, but everyone knew that not everyone sincerely wished the best for others.
Finally they went into the hall to rest. There were palace maids serving refreshments, and everyone was tired. At this moment, a maid came to ask An Qingran quietly, saying that there was a niangniang waiting next door.
She didn't say which Niangniang. An Qingran was more cautious. Ever since she entered the Imperial Palace, she felt like she had entered an island full of traps. If she wasn't careful, she would probably fall into a trap and her corpse wouldn't survive, and all she could do was become a victim. She didn't feel that she had the ability to defend herself at the moment. With all the things that had happened, she really didn't know how many times she would have died without the help of a noble person.
When she got to the next door, she found that no one was guarding. She gently pushed the door in and smelled a sweet smell. Behind the screen, there was a pair of boots exposed, which were palace boots only the prince could wear.
The boots didn’t move and just stood there. In fact, it was placed there, but she didn't know it at the moment.
“Miss An…” A woman’s voice came.
An Qingran found that it was Shu Guifei who was sitting behind the bead curtain. She was shocked by this discovery. She didn’t see her just now. She was busy saluting: “I’ve seen the guifei niangniang. I don’t know the guifei niangniang to look for the chennu. Is there something to instruct?”
“It’s just that the people outside are noisy and the air is dirty. Let you come in and have a rest. It's quiet here. We’ll talk for a while.” Shu Guifei’s beautiful face is full of sincerity.
An Qingran in her heart wonders, How could she be so kind today? What about the palace boots behind the screen? She listened carefully, but there was no sound of breathing. Did she have any conspiracy?
But she still said with a smile: “Many Thanks for niangniang‘s kindness…”
Well, your dance today was really great. It's amazing that you have such a good skill at such a young age. And it's so special. Come to think of it, it's because the General and his wife have taught their daughter well!" Shu Guifei said polite words and reached out her hand to push the fruits and cakes on the table in front of her. “Have a taste. It’s all made with frozen well water. It’s very cool. Although it’s mid-autumn festival today, sunlight is very vicious. It’s time to relieve the summer heat!”
An Qingran smiles and reaches for a piece of cake. She raises it to the corner of her mouth and smells a strange smell. This kind of aroma is the same as that of the smell of Datura flower before sunrise in the morning!
She laughed and put the cake down again: “Oh,by the way, Niangniang, just now I heard that the Emperor sent people to look for the Niangniang of each palace. Said it was to the front hall banquet. It seems that Empress Niangniang has something to say…”
Shu Guifei believed it and said, "Oh, I just came out to take a breath. You can rest here by yourself. Don't tell anyone. You can enjoy the food here as you like..."
She smiled very happily and her voice was full of intimacy, as if she was one of their own and she was not showing it to others.
An Qingran nodded, put the pastry in her mouth and took a bite: “It’s delicious!”
When Shu Guifei saw her eat it, she had a smile in her eyes: “I’ll come back soon. Somehow, I love chatting with you…”
After she went out, An Qingran immediately spat the cake from her mouth onto the handkerchief. There was nothing left. She did not dare to gargle the water on the table because it has a Love powder drug. Her nose is the most sensitive to this, because last time, almost caught in An Yanran’s trap. Later, she deliberately studied hard, mixed this kind of love medicine successfully and studied all the drugs.
She took a bite on purpose just to reassure Shu Guifei , and then what exactly she was going to do would reveal her true intentions.
She wiped the corners of her mouth and quietly walked behind the screen, but it turned out to be just a pair of boots, and no one was there. What did Shu Guifei mean by this?
She thought that Kang Wang was waiting inside. He wasn’t here. Was it because she was too thoughtful?
impossible!
Maybe Kang Wang didn’t come here at the moment.
Maybe she drugged me and went to find Kang Wang? Or maybe it wasn't Kang Wang, but someone else? In any case, she definitely didn't have good intentions. She already suspected that I drugged Kang Wang and An Yanran. She didn't investigate clearly last time. Was she taking revenge this time?
No matter what, drugging me is not a good thing. She must have a conspiracy.
After thinking about several possibilities, An Qingran smiles. She walks out of the room and sees An Ranyue sitting on the porch very boring. Seeing her come out, she comes up and says, “jiejie, how are you here?”
“Me? Shu Guifei is preparing tea and pastries inside, it's cool and quiet, she's out for something, I was just thinking of looking for you and Yanran to come and taste it together..." An Qingran said with a smile.
"Really? I'm a little thirsty... You go find Yanran, I'll go in first..." An Ranyue didn't doubt her and pushed the door open. There was indeed no outsider in the room, so she didn't care. An Qingran walked aside and didn't call An Yanran. She didn't know what Shu Guifei was up to, so she waited.
She thinks that the most likely one is that she comes forward to match herself with Kang Wang. After all, compared with An Yanran, she is more suitable to be the Wangfei of Kang Wang!
Just thinking about it, sure enough, she saw Dongfang Ye approaching with staggered footsteps. He looked around and found nothing. He pushed the door and went into the room. An Qingran knew it!
As expected it’s like this.
Well, she would just fulfill her wish. An Ranyue was her enemy in the last life, but good friends with An Yanran, and the two of them work together. In this life, she would let them share the same husband and see how good their relationship could be!
When An Qingran thought of this, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. She must take the revenge she deserves, otherwise her heart will never be at peace.
Of course, they haven't changed at all in this life. But when you think about it, it makes sense. Only I have been reborn, so of course these people still have the same personalities as in the previous life!
She sighed, in fact, she didn’t want to become this way. Before that she was kind and generous, but what was the result?
So, sometimes she thought that the famous saying that good people are deceived is still true.
Seeing Dongfang Ye entered but did not come out, it was time for her to find An Yanran.
But she was not in a hurry. She just calculated the time and thought it was almost time. This King Kang was really a beast. He would not let anyone go. This An Ranyue was the same. She was not much better!
Of course, it may be the cause of the drug.
When Kang Wang entered the room, his steps began to become unsteady.
An Yanran was talking about something with Qin Xiangning, there was no laughter, just whispers, looking as if Qin Xiangning was in a foul mood.
