After hesitating momentarily, Zhou Ying decided to return and think of a foolproof plan with Gu Chengrui.
She threw this to the back of her mind and went to the Yang family.
At this time, the lights in the Yang family were out.
Madam Cui tossed and turned in the main house of the central courtyard, unable to sleep because of what had happened today.
Yang Shicheng was also a little annoyed by her. He sat up and said, “You can flip in this bed as much as you like. I’m going to the study to sleep.”
After saying that, he began to put on his clothes.
“Wait. Since you’re not asleep, let’s talk.” Madam Cui quickly grabbed his wrist.
“Hurry up and say it. We still have morning court tomorrow.” Yang Shicheng yawned.
Madam Cui had no choice but to tell him how they plotted against Yang Wanning and how the Empress reprimanded them. Finally, she asked, “What did the Empress mean by that?
“What does she mean by it depends on my ability?”
Yang Shicheng looked at her with disgust.
If she hadn’t helped him with many private things over the years, to be honest, he wouldn’t have promoted her as his wife for fear that she would fall out with him. What a dense woman.
He replied with disdain, “Even if the Emperor bestows the marriage, a marriage will not be successful if something happens to the bride. It will, in turn, delay the Third Prince’s marriage; no, it’s King Rui now.”
“The Empress wants me to continue to think of ways to eliminate Yang Wanning.” Madam Cui shook her head and continued, “But after a bestowment, she would be considered half a member of the royal family. How could I escape unscathed once the Third Prince investigated when something happened to her?”
Yang Shicheng looked at her in surprise, as he didn’t expect her to think of this. It seemed that she understood the Empress’s intention, but she didn’t dare to think about it, or rather, she didn’t dare to do it. That was what kept her up at night.
“There’s a phrase called ‘accident’ and an idiom called ‘killing someone with a borrowed knife’.”
After saying that, he put on his clothes and walked out.
When Madam Cui returned to her senses, he was already gone.
After that, she crawled under the blanket and couldn’t help but shiver.
Yang Wanning was his biological daughter, yet he could give her ideas without blinking about dealing with his daughter.
Was it just because of the Gu family?
It seemed that she had to be more careful. Otherwise, she might be abandoned at any time.
As for Yang Wanning, she would wait and judge the situation. Regardless, she did not plan to do anything more herself.
Zhou Ying heard Yang Shicheng’s words and felt the coldness in his heart. He probably only had himself and no one else inside him.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ying turned to look at the Empress.
At that moment, the Empress discussed the ladies who had appeared earlier at the banquet with the Emperor. At the same time, the Emperor was flipping through a booklet in his hand.
Zhou Ying went over to take a look. It clearly recorded each girl’s preferences, personality, strengths, weaknesses, abilities, etc. It even recorded their shady doings.
The records were very detailed.
Zhou Ying was curious as it would take an abnormal person to record all of this.
However, she soon discovered some things that could be improved. For example, Zhou Jiaqing’s brutal side, which no one knew, was not recorded down.
It seemed that this was not as detailed as she thought.
The Empress said, “I’ve chosen two consorts for the Third Prince.
“One is the Empress Dowager’s niece, the daughter of the current Minister of Rites, Qin Weiyi. She’s the only girl in the Qin family and is said to be doted on by thousands.
“There’s the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, Yang Wanning, born of the Gu family.”
“Oh, then tell me, why did you choose Yang Wanning?
“As far as 1 know, Yang Shicheng is very close to you.
“Moreover, you intend to make Yang Wanyu the Eldest Prince’s second consort.” The Emperor raised his head and stared at her..
