The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 374

Su Qingyan knew that's matter of Xuanyuan Shi because he once helped Weisheng Junyan, who had wanted to unified the four kingdoms while she was in the Southern Star Kingdom. In private, she had helped him investigate a lot of things, including that of the Ninth King and Ding Shuqi, but she did not expect that this matter would become an important weapon for them to threaten Xuanyuan Shi. As for Xuanyuan Shi, Qingyan did not know much about him, but Xuanyuan Yvzhen and Murong Jingxuan knew him well.

Xuanyuan Shi, as the youngest brother of Emperor Hongjia, was favored. The reason why Emperor Hongjia could become the emperor at that time was not only because of Princess Chunyuan, but also because of this brother. His brother was a famous general in the past, and because of his help, Emperor Hongjia was able to get the throne. Emperor Hongjia was grateful for Xuanyuan Shi, especially when Xuanyuan Shi voluntarily gave up the military leadership.

But it never occurred to Emperor Hongjia that his brother would have an affair with his concubine. Even if Emperor Hongjia favored Xuanyuan Shi so much, he couldn't accept such a thing, even if his heart was only occupied by the existence of Qilian Yvran.

"the Ninth King is always the kind of person who won't be threatened by others. I didn't expect that he would be so afraid of such a thing. Do you think Jing Shuqi still has a very high position in his heart?" Xuanyuan Yvzhen looked at them and said with a smile, "but what's your better opinion on this matter? If the Ninth King doesn't help the Crown Prince, then no one else can help him."

"What do you think, Yanyan?" Hearing Xuanyuan Yvzhen's words, Murong Jingxuan looked at Qingyan. However, Qingyan didn't seem to hear their conversation and was thinking about her own matters. She didn't come to her senses until Jingxuan spoke again.

"I want to know more information. After all, you all have no idea about what happened between the Ninth King and Ding Shuqi But I don't think the father would know that they used to be a couple. Later on, the Ding clan wanted high position and great wealth so they were separated. But I think they would never think that the person that Ding Shuqi liked was the Ninth King." Qingyan looked at them and said lightly, "but later when the members of the Ding clan knew it, Ding Shuqi had become the emperor's woman. In the eyes of the Ding clan, a title of Guifei(*TN: Guifei is a title, means the distinguished concubine of the emperor) was much higher than the title of Jiuwangfei. But they would never think that even if she married into the Imperial Palace, she still had an affair with Prince nine."

"I really didn't expect this to happen. Xuanyuan Shi loved Ding Shuqi. But this is the best result for us." Looking at Qingayn and Yvzhen, Jingxuan said with a smile, "although the emperor is suspicious, he only believes in the evidence. If the empress tells the emperor the truth, he won't believe it."

"So do you have evidence that the Ninth King and Guifei have an affair?" Xuanyuan Yvzhen asked. He knew the ability of Murong Jingxuan and Qingyan, but he really didn't expect that they could do this. They still had the evidence of what happened many years ago.

No one could could it. But they did. Or was it all done by Qingyan alone?

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Yvzhen looked at Qingyan, who was still meditating.

From the first time he saw this girl, he felt that she was not like a navie girl at her age. Her mind, wisdom, and strategy were very thorough. Every step she took was firm and unshakable. Once she took action, her enemy would be killed, as if she had anticipated that the enemy would jump into a trap prepared beforehand.

Such mature and decisive girl shouldn't be only fourteen years old. Instead, she looked more domineering than a girl at her age. She was exactly like a superior in her life, as if she could see through everything after she had gone through a lot of ups and downs.
