The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 409

Thinking of the last wish made by Ning Sicai, Emperor Hongjia calmly said, "She just knows well about her strength."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yvzhen asked with a confused look, "father, why did you say that? Did she ever say something to you?"

"She told me that if abdicate one day, she would be reclusive in this world," said Emperor Hongjia, smiling.

Hearing that, Qilian Yvran giggled with his hand covering her mouth. Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yvzhen looked at each other and smiled, as if they already had a better tacit agreement.

"Father, since you are here to keep my mother company, Jingxuan and I will leave." With that, Xuanyuan Yvzhen pulled Murong Jingxuan away.

"Fourth Prince is a good boy," Seeing the leaving of the two, Emperor Hongjia smiled and looked at Qilian Yvran, who was standing next to him.

"You are not young now. You don't need to worry about that." "You know, the throne will belong to them sooner or later." said Qilian Yvran while looking at Emperor Hongjia.

Before leaving the imperial palace, Marquis Jingguo decided to go to the Xianyin Palace to see Ning Sicai. When Ning Sicai saw Marquis Jingguo come, she snorted in her heart.

"Zhaoyi, greetings!" Marquis Jingguo looked at Ning Sicai and said calmly.

Knowing the purpose of Marquis Jingguo's coming here, Ning Sicai looked at him and said calmly, "if you are going to question me about the matter of Yuelan, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do."

Hearing that, Marquis Jingguo hinted her to go on talking. Looking at his expression, Ning Sicai pretended to be aggrieved and said, "yesterday, Yuelan said she wanted to defeat the imperial concubine and win the love of the emperor, but unexpectedly, yhis majesty happened to come here with the imperial concubine. Then the imperial concubine took Yuelan away. You know the personality of the emperor,"

As Marquis Jingguo listened, he lost in thought, his eyes unreadable. "I heard you were on the side of Concubine Yi."

Hearing that, Ning Sicai smiled, "you know the character of Pthe imperial concubine. If she is a good person, I won't work Concubine Yi. After all, Concubine Yi is the most favorite woman in the imperial palace now." Looking at Marquis Jingguo, Ning Sicai said with a smile, "but father is also working for the Second Prince, right?"

Hearing this, Marquis Jingguo nodded with satisfaction. His daughter was still the ignorant daughter in his heart. At this point, even if he wouldn't be able to use Ning Yuelan, he could use Ning Sicai.

"As for what happened to Yuelan, I will tell Second Prince and ask him to plead for her. Anyway, she is your niece." Marquis Jingguo looked at Ning Sicai and said calmly, "I know what kind of person Yuelan is. I don't think she did it on purpose."

Looking at Marquis Jingguo's expression, Ning Sicai nodded with seriousness. "Father is right. I will definitely teach Yuelan a good lesson when the time comes. But if the imperial concubine is still not willing to let go of her, I can't do nothing about it."

After the competition, they knew what Ning Sicai wanted to say, but Ning Sicai was right. If Concubine Yi couldn't solve it, then no one could solve. The only way was that they were able to win the empress over. But since the Crown Prince was the best choice to inherit the throne, the empress wouldn't take their side.
