Chapter 553: Settle old scores

Shen Qingluan’s silver teeth almost broke into pieces.

She didn’t believe that any woman could compare with her in appearance!

Is the prince blind? He couldn't see Shen Qingluan, but he fell in love with a peasant girl!

For some reason, Shen Qingluan suddenly thought of Gu Fei. If she had an outstanding appearance, could it be her?

She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Is that peasant girl's surname Gu?"

The maid nodded, "My surname is Gu. Just now, the Crown Prince said that he would not marry a girl other than Gu."

Shen Qingluan's face was distorted, "It is indeed her!"

“No wonder I didn’t like her when I saw her. I didn’t expect that a lowly peasant girl would interfere with my marriage!”

Otherwise, she might be the crown prince’s concubine now!

She remembered that day at the Luan Garden Poetry Recital, and she had clearly asked the girl to take the **** to Hu Yuan. Later, when the princess refused the marriage, she was so shocked that she forgot to ask the girl.

That girl is still in Luan Garden, taking care of the tigers.

Shen Qingluan said with a cold face, "Go to Luanyuan and call that girl Jiuer over. I have something to ask her."

In less than an hour, Jiu'er was brought over.

She didn't dare to show her anger and knelt in the room, then she heard Shen Qingluan say: "On the day of the Luan Garden Poetry Festival, if I didn't ask you to bring that Miss Gu into the Tiger Garden, how did you do it?

Nearly half a year has passed since this incident. Jiu'er originally thought that Shen Qingluan had forgotten and she had escaped. She didn't want to mention the matter again today. She trembled slightly and replied: "My slave did bring Miss Gu into the tiger garden that day."

“Not only did she take her into the Tiger Garden, but the slave also pushed her into the room, then locked the door and ran away.”

"Who knows, who knows, later I saw Miss Gu reappearing intact!"

Shen Qingluan snorted coldly, "Do you think I am a fool? She is a girl. How can she survive after entering the tiger garden?"

“When I saw that **** that day, her face was not red, she was not panting, and not even a hair was tangled. Did she look like she had run away from the tiger park?”

Jiu'er was trembling on the ground, "I swear to the sky, I will never tell a lie."

Shen Qingluan said nonchalantly: "I don't care whether you tell the truth or not, but in short, you didn't get the job done well."

“Pull her down and give her twenty boards!”

The two women dragged Jiu'er out. Jiu'er was so weak that he didn't even dare to beg for mercy.

There was a dull sound outside. Shen Qingluan was sitting in the room, squinting her eyes. What a girl, you will come in sooner or later. I won’t kill you when I see you!

Here again, Eunuch Liu returned to Guanyi with a gloomy look on his face.

Zheng Wan heard the commotion and quickly sent her maid out to inquire.

Eunuch Liu said angrily: "Let you girls rest, the prince is unwilling to accept the order, and I don't know what to do at the moment."

When the maid returned to her room and told Eunuch Liu what she had said, Zheng Wan felt as if a ladle of cold water had been poured from her head to her feet.

She trembled all over, "How is it possible? That is the Queen's decree. How can you not accept it?"

The maid could not give an answer and stood aside silently.

Zheng Wan sat on the edge of the bed and cried.

Eunuch Liu returned to his room and thought over and over again. It would be easier if he returned to Beijing to report to the Queen, but what about Miss Zheng?

Although she is an orphan, she is the queen's sister in name. She cannot be left alone in the official post.

Eunuch Liu thought about it and wrote down the details of today's edict. He packed it in an envelope and asked the post official for some fire paint to seal it. He handed the letter to the post official and said, "I ordered someone to send it back to the capital as quickly as possible. "The Queen."
