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

Chapter 186 Design of Frame-up

Zhang Qingsha is just the niece of the old lady of Lin'an Marquis Mansion, and she has no impressive family background.

Now Xue Wanxian was working for Prince Yong again. Zhang Qingsha was of almost no use to him, so he looked down on her even more.

He just thought so in his heart, and of course King Cheng would not say it for the sake of face.

After hearing what King Cheng said, Zhang Qingsha automatically translated it into that because her coming-of-age ceremony was very important, he took time out of his busy schedule to come and attend.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qingsha was even happier and more certain that King Cheng really liked her.

"Your Highness, how do you think Qingsha's pipa playing is today? Qingsha has been learning it since she was young, and I don't know how well she is." Zhang Qingsha pretended to be distressed and spoke.

In fact, she just wanted to hear King Cheng praise her.

"Miss Zhang plays the pipa very well. Her skills are no less than those of the girls from the Jiaofang Bureau." King Cheng said perfunctorily.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness." Zhang Qingsha was overjoyed when she heard this, and did not notice the perfunctory and disdainful tone in King Cheng's words.

After all, no one would compare a girl from a respectable family with a girl from the Jiaofangsi.

Although the Jiaofangsi was part of the palace and the girls there were innocent, in the eyes of high-ranking officials like King Cheng, it was an inferior place and they simply looked down on such a place.

"Your Highness..." Zhang Qingsha turned to face King Cheng and was about to say something when she suddenly felt dizzy and fell down weakly.

King Cheng did not reach out to catch Zhang Qingsha, but took two steps back and let Zhang Qingsha faint on the ground, with a look of disgust on his face.

He didn't know why Zhang Qingsha fainted, he just thought she suddenly felt unwell and was about to turn around and leave.

Suddenly he sensed something strange behind him and quickly dodged to the side.

With a "ding" sound, a silver needle fell on the place where he had just stood.

King Cheng's face suddenly changed. He looked in the direction where the silver needle came from, but found nothing.

However, he also realized that something was wrong. He glanced at the person lying on the ground, then glanced at the surroundings and found that it was very quiet here. Apart from him and Zhang Qingsha, there was no other figure. So he prepared to leave.

The next moment, many hidden weapons flew around, and King Cheng turned sideways to dodge them. However, although he dodged the first few, he was still hit by a silver needle.

The moment the silver needle pierced his body, King Cheng noticed that his consciousness began to blur. Before he could think about anything, he fainted on the ground.

Soon, several people appeared beside King Cheng and Zhang Qingsha.

"Put all these things away. Don't leave any evidence behind."

"Yes."

Everything that happened here was clearly visible.

Bo Yun told An Qingqian everything he saw here.

An Qingqian just nodded thoughtfully.

Since seeing King Cheng here today, An Qingqian felt something strange.

She knew that Xue Wanxian was Yong Wang's man, and that Yong Wang and Cheng Wang, although harmonious on the surface, were actually secretly competing against each other. They wanted to find something to hold against each other and put them to death, so as to reduce a competitor.

It's not surprising that Prince Yong would come to support Xue Wanxian, but it's a bit strange that Prince Cheng also came.

Therefore, An Qingqian asked Bo Yun to pay attention to every move of Xue Wanxian and Prince Yong.

Bo Yun was extremely familiar with the Marquis' Mansion because it was easy to keep an eye on them without any risk of being exposed.

"It seems that there will be something interesting to watch next."

Not long after An Qingqian finished saying this, she saw Prince Yong and Xue Wanxian returning to the banquet hall one after another.

Because of the cold weather, not many people went out.

Most people stayed in the banquet hall and waited for the two princes to leave before going back.

However, everyone waited for a long time but King Cheng did not come back.

Today's banquet was basically over at this point, and everyone was sitting in their seats bored.

Prince Yong glanced at everyone and finally stopped his gaze on An Qingqian.

Originally, he was planning to get close to An Qingqian and improve their relationship today.

Who knew that Liu Yiyi's incident would disrupt his entire plan. He was busy dealing with Liu Yiyi's affairs and could only give up An Qingqian temporarily.

An Qingqian naturally felt the gazes falling on her, as the two were not far away.

An Qingqian knew who the owner of this gaze was without even looking up.

Prince Yong stared at An Qingqian, a look of determination flashed across his eyes, and then he withdrew his gaze.

Xue Wanxian had been paying attention to Prince Yong's expression, and naturally noticed the look he gave An Qingqian.

Looking at the way Prince Yong looked at An Qingqian, Xue Wanxian felt very unhappy, but he couldn't say anything.

After a while, Prince Yong looked at the bored people on both sides and spoke in a suspicious tone.

"Where is King Cheng? Has any of you seen King Cheng? He's been out for so long, why hasn't he come back yet?"

Everyone looked at each other. They were all angry about what had just happened, so they didn't notice where King Cheng went.

"I think the time is almost up, Lord Xue, send someone to find King Cheng."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xue Wanxian gave the person next to him a look, and that person left quickly.

Not long after, the man came back trotting with a panicked look on his face.

Everyone was waiting for King Cheng, so when they saw the guard who was looking for someone come back, everyone's attention was focused on him.

Seeing that there was something wrong with his expression, everyone became even more curious.

That person was Xue Qing, Xue Wanxian's personal bodyguard.

"My Lord, something happened." Xue Qing ran to Xue Wanxian and whispered in his ear.

No one could hear what he said, but when they saw Xue Wanxian's face suddenly change, they became extremely curious and guessed that something must have happened.

Xue Wanxian walked quickly to Prince Yong with a panicked look on his face and said something to him again.

Prince Yong's reaction was even more extreme. He stood up from his seat and shouted, "What? There is such a thing?"

Everyone looked at the two people at the top in confusion.

A middle-aged man was the first to ask the question on everyone's mind, "Your Majesty, what's going on? What happened?"

"Oh, nothing, it's just that something happened over there with King Cheng, I'm going to take a look."

Prince Yong then realized that his reaction seemed a bit too much, and quickly adjusted his expression.

However, Prince Yong’s explanation did not stop everyone’s curiosity.

Prince Yong stood up and walked outside, followed by Xue Wanxian and two guards.

Others were even more confused. What had happened to Prince Cheng that could make Prince Yong's face change so drastically?
