My husband married a concubine? I turned around and married the cold prince.

Chapter 255-1 Something must have been overlooked

"Your Highness, people in the palace also said that before the Queen spoke, she had met with Consort Xian, so it is very likely that Consort Xian first proposed this matter."

"You mean, Princess Xian found the Queen and wanted her to mention Shi Qiuwu and An Qingqian's marriage in front of your father?" Prince Yong looked at the person in front of him suspiciously.

“I am only guessing, but I am not sure. When Consort Xian entered the palace and spoke to the Queen that day, there were only the Queen and Consort Xian in the palace, and our people did not hear what they said specifically.

But after the virtuous princess left, the queen mentioned this matter to the emperor. "

"Has there been anything unusual in Prince Xian's mansion during this period?" Prince Yong frowned.

"Our people didn't send any news, so everything should be normal. However, during the Lantern Festival, An Qingqian claimed to be sick and didn't go to the palace banquet. After Prince Xian came out of the palace, he brought some things to visit An Qingqian, saying that he was visiting her."

"Where is Shi Qiuwu? What has he been doing during this period? Is he in Fuguang Temple or in the Xianwang Mansion?"

"In reply to your Highness, Shi Qiuwu left Prince Xian's Mansion the day after the Lantern Festival ended, and did not return from Fuguang Temple until the day before the Emperor announced the decree."

"The virtuous princess, Shi Qiuwu, and An Qingqian." Prince Yong muttered these names, staring at the peonies blooming on the table thoughtfully.

"There must be some problem between them. We must have overlooked something." Prince Yong kept shaking his head.

"But, Your Majesty, the person in charge of monitoring Prince Xian's Mansion said that there is nothing special going on." The messenger was puzzled.

"Humph, that's because you are stupid. This uncle of mine was not a simple person when he was young. I'm afraid we have all been deceived by him."

"Ah? What does the prince mean?"

"Reassign a master to keep an eye on the General's Mansion and see if anyone has met with An Qingqian in the past few days, or if there has been any communication. Any unusual incidents must be reported. There must be something we have overlooked."

Prince Yong's mind worked quickly. When he was punished by the Emperor this time, he was indeed very angry at first, but he calmed down after a while.

He has sent people to investigate this matter for a long time, but there is still no news.

Now, no matter what the situation is, the emperor has punished him and he is taking the blame for the real murderer.

The emperor also reassigned a scapegoat to Prince Dingyuan, and the matter was temporarily over.

At present, the most important thing for him is to find out the truth about this arranged marriage.

If An Qingqian marries Shi Qiuwu, he will no longer be able to win over An Zhenyuan.

This is definitely a big loss for him.

He must get to the bottom of this matter.

"By the way, what exactly happened to Xuanwu's poisoning? What kind of poison is so toxic?" Prince Yong walked to the chair next to him and sat down, his face full of annoyance.

I don’t know what’s going on, but it hasn’t been long this year and he has been encountering all kinds of complicated things.

Is it that he has a bad luck this year, or is it that the luck of this year is unlucky for him?

"Your Majesty, Xuanwu's poisoning is really strange. Ten days ago, he was sleeping well in the middle of the night, and suddenly his whole body began to twitch.

At that time, his subordinates were staying with him and immediately noticed something was wrong.

At that time, his face turned blue, and his entire right hand turned purple and black.

In desperation, the subordinate used a knife to cut the tip of his right finger and used his internal force to force out some of the poison in his body. However, not long after, his condition became serious again. The subordinate used the same method to force out the poison again and asked Liu's doctor to come and see him.

Doctor Liu couldn't figure out what the poison was, he only knew it was highly toxic. Doctor Liu used acupuncture and prescribed medicine, but he was only able to save Xuanwu's life.

Xuanwu's martial arts skills were all wasted, his internal energy was completely dissipated, and some of his meridians were seriously injured. Liu Fu's doctor said that his life was ruined. Not to mention fighting, he couldn't even do what ordinary people do."

"What? His condition is so serious?" Upon hearing this, Prince Yong was furious again.

Xuanwu was one of the most capable guards around him. He had dealt with many people in secret for him and handled many shameful things for him, and there had almost never been any mistakes.

How could such a thing happen suddenly?

"It is indeed very serious. If it weren't for the Liu family doctor's superb medical skills and the best medicine he used, I'm afraid Xuanwu would have become a corpse long ago."

"You and Xuanwu almost trained together. I know how good your martial arts are. You didn't realize what happened at that time, and now you have disabled a person. You are really useless."

Prince Yong stared at the man in front of him with a look of disappointment. If he had no other available people, he would have wanted to order someone to drag the man in front of him away and execute him, as he was someone who was more likely to cause trouble than to help.

Feeling Prince Yong's anger, guard Xuanwen lowered his head in shame. He really didn't know what was going on.

He was still very confused in his heart, and he was also very sad that his good brother was ruined.

"This subordinate is guilty."

"Okay, okay, go down and do your job. If something like this happens again, you will be punished directly." Prince Yong waved his hands impatiently.

After Xuanwen left, an aide knocked on the door and came in.

"What's the matter?" Prince Yong raised his eyes to look at the person who came and then closed his eyes to think.

"Your Highness, I have a plan that can solve your current predicament." The aide looked at Prince Yong with brilliance in his eyes.

"explain."

"Your Highness, since the Emperor has already issued an edict granting the marriage, An Qingqian's move is useless. However, there are still many women in the capital. If you marry them, you can definitely get help."

Seeing that Prince Yong did not refute, the aide continued to speak.

"Liu Xinnuan, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue, Lord Liu, is already sixteen years old this year. The prince has met her before. As long as the prince marries Miss Liu as his principal wife, then Lord Liu can be used by the prince, and the Ministry of Revenue will also become his possession."

When Prince Yong saw the person in front of him mention Liu Xinnuan, he pondered for a moment, and a vague figure of a girl quickly emerged in his mind.

His eyes lit up. Yes, how could he have forgotten about this?

Damn it, it was all because of An Qingqian’s arranged marriage that he was so angry that he actually forgot about Liu Xinnuan.

Although Lord Liu, the Minister of Revenue, does not have military power, the Ministry of Revenue is a purse.

With money, what can't be accomplished?

Besides, originally, he just wanted to give An Qingqian the status of a concubine, and it would not have any impact on the position of the principal wife.

"In your opinion, what should I do?"

"Your Highness, beauties have loved heroes since ancient times. As long as Your Highness uses a little trick, your wish will surely come true." The aide smiled flatteringly.
