Chapter 187 Sending People to Monitor Secretly
Xia Yu stood there, watching Shangguan Jiaoyun's figure gradually walking away, with a disdainful smile on his lips.
She turned around and said to Chunxiao, "How dare she come here? She always said bad things about the young lady behind her back, which made her have such a bad reputation. She even almost killed her in the restaurant. Now she really deserves it."
After hearing this, Chunxiao gently pulled Xia Yu and signaled her not to continue.
The two turned around and went back into the house, and saw Shangguan Ziling lying lazily on the small couch with a medical book in her hand.
She saw Xia Yu and Chun Xiao coming back, so she asked, "Leaving?"
Xia Yu nodded and replied, "Let's go, Miss. The Second Miss must hate you and have bad intentions towards you. Miss, please don't ruin the Second Miss's reputation."
After hearing this, Shangguan Ziling smiled and said, "Oh, our Xia Yu is quite smart."
After hearing this, Xia Yu stamped her feet and said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, I am serious."
Shangguan Ziling couldn't help laughing when she saw her angry look. She put down the medical book in her hand, sat up, and said to Xia Yu: "Okay, I know you are worried about me. But don't worry, I know what's going on."
Chun Xiao also came over and consoled her, "Xia Yu, don't worry. The young lady is so smart and capable now, she will definitely be able to handle it."
After hearing this, Xia Yu felt relieved a little, and the two of them stayed aside quietly.
Shangguan Ziling continued to lie back on the couch, picked up the medical book and continued reading.
She looked relaxed and contented, and said, "Qiu Kui, let people look at Shangguan Jiaoyun."
Qiu Kui nodded, turned and walked outside. When she reached the outside of the house, she took a deep breath and blew a sharp and long whistle.
A moment later, a dark shadow flashed from the darkness and quickly approached Qiu Kui. The man was a secret guard, wearing black clothes and a veil, revealing only a pair of piercing eyes.
He knelt on one knee and saluted Qiu Kui respectfully: "Your subordinate greets Miss Qiu Kui."
Qiu Kui glanced at him calmly and said in a deep voice, "Go and look after Shangguan Jiaoyun. Report any situation immediately."
The secret guard immediately replied, "Yes!" The secret guard told Qiu Kui the news outside, and then he flashed and disappeared in the Crimson Purple Courtyard.
Qiu Kui walked slowly into the inner room, her face was a little solemn, she reported to Shangguan Ziling: "Miss, now the rumors on the prince's cruise ship have gradually died down. Now people outside are talking about your marriage with the regent. In addition, news came from the palace today that the emperor has lifted the prince's house arrest order."
Shangguan Ziling just said "Oh" lightly, as if she was not surprised by all this. Her eyes were as deep as the sea, revealing a sense of indifference that transcended the world.
"Your Majesty is making a lot of noise but doing little. After all, he is unwilling to really touch the Crown Prince in the slightest." Shangguan Ziling chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
In her opinion, Jun Yaotian was the emperor's legitimate son and was also named the crown prince. Even if he committed some mistakes, the emperor only gave him a symbolic punishment - two days of house arrest.
This was not a big deal in the royal family. Moreover, the queen and her family were behind the scenes. It was only a matter of time before the rumors were suppressed.
Shangguan Ziling continued to look at the medical book calmly.
Some people were no longer calm. Inside the eldest prince's mansion, the atmosphere in the study was tense.
Jun Yaoqi smashed the items on the desk angrily, and the sound of the porcelain breaking was particularly harsh.
Jun Yaoqi's face flushed red, and his eyes flashed with flames of anger, as if they were going to set the entire study on fire.
"Father is too partial!" Jun Yaoqi roared, his voice echoing in the study, filled with endless anger and unwillingness.
"The Crown Prince made such a big fool of himself, but Father only symbolically confined him for two days and then released him."
Guo Feimi, who was standing by, was one of Jun Yaoqi's advisers. He knew very well how angry the eldest prince was at the moment, so he stepped forward and advised, "Eldest prince, calm down."
Jun Yaoqi widened his eyes and looked at Guo Feimi, as if he wanted to vent all his anger, "Calm down? How can this prince calm down? Father's heart is crooked and so biased!" His voice trembled, revealing his extreme unwillingness in his heart.
Jun Yaoqi closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm his anger. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were a little more fierce, "Did you contact that person?"
Guo Feimi nodded, "Prince, our people have successfully contacted that person."
After hearing this, Jun Yaoqi's eyes flashed with excitement, "Very good, very good." He clenched his fists, "Since the emperor is unkind, then we should not blame this son for being unfilial."

Inside the Prince Regent's Palace, Mo Shaoxie was concentrating on viewing a painting in his hand.
The woman in the painting is lifelike, as if she would walk out of the painting at any time. Her eyebrows are smiling and the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, which makes people fascinated by her involuntarily.
Mo Shaoxie's gaze lingered on the face of the woman in the painting for a long time, as if he was recalling some beautiful past events.
At this time, Xiao Zijin and Le Wenshu walked into the study together.
Seeing this, Mo Shaoxie immediately put down the painting in his hand and quickly covered it with a clean piece of drawing paper. At the same time, his expression instantly turned cold, as if all the tenderness and affection just now was an illusion.
Seeing the changes in Mo Shaoxie, Xiao Zijin smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. You will be marrying a princess soon." There was a hint of teasing and joking in her tone.
Le Wenshu followed closely and echoed, "Yes, Your Majesty, this is a great event in the capital."
Mo Shaoxie just said "hmm" lightly when he heard this, without saying much. He turned his eyes to the two of them, as if asking them what was going on.
Xiao Zijin smiled and said, "The capital has been very lively recently, with many people of all kinds coming here."
Le Wenshu also added: "Your Highness, the Second Prince of Xiliang has come to the capital, and he has disguised himself and has not let anyone inform the emperor. The same is true for the Southern Chu Kingdom. Their whereabouts are strange, and they seem to be trying to find out something."
After hearing this, Mo Shaoxie simply said "hmm" without showing too much surprise or worry.
His eyes were deep and steady, and he said calmly: "Send someone to monitor secretly. No accidents are allowed to happen during the wedding of the king and Ling'er."
