Chapter 682 Credentials
After Fang Zilan returned to Beijing, she was quietly sent to Fengyi Palace, as if she had never left.Up and down the palace, from Fang Ziqin to Qiushui, to the big and small palace ladies, it was as if nothing had happened.

Only Awan and Wen Ya, coming in and out every day, kept the soup and medicine, so that Fang Zilan's room was always filled with a bitter medicinal smell, which lasted for a long time.

Li Shengxuan returned to his busy government affairs. On the one hand, he discussed with Wei Subaru the method of rectifying the Jiangnan Camp, and chose a new leader. corrupt action.

All of a sudden, everyone in the court was in danger, even Zhuge Yu was cautious in his words and deeds.

One day, when he was asked privately by his colleagues—whether the Zuiyue Tower fire case was related to the Jiangnan Painting Boat fire case that year, Zhuge Yu kept silent and kept secret.

When these news reached Ji Ningtian's ears in Hong'an Pavilion, his face sank like water, and he just asked Wu Qing repeatedly: "Lan'er, did she really block the knife for Li Shengxuan, and she has not recovered from her serious injury?"

However, no matter how many times he asked, all he got was a resolute and affirmative answer from Wu Qing, which made his face even more embarrassing, and finally growled, "Enough."

Wu Qing kept silent, Ji Ningtian said in a deep voice: "Hongtai and Honghe brothers and sisters are missing, bandits and bandits have no leader. The commander and deputy general of the Jiangnan Camp have been replaced, and more than half of the officials have been killed or injured. This pool of water has been muddied. Murong Qing, don't let me It's good to be disappointed."

"My lord, Miluo's credentials have been sent to the capital yesterday." Wu Qing opened her mouth cautiously, and Ji Ningtian looked relieved, "It seems that the show is about to begin."

Sure enough, the second day after Miluo Guoshu was sent to Beijing, it caused an uproar.There is no other reason, but because the letter of credence requested that it was Li Qianning, Princess Dejia of Dajing.

When Fang Ziqin heard the news, he couldn't help being stunned, and thoughtfully said: "Empress Miluo has passed away for less than three months. According to Miluo's rules, the mourning period has not passed yet. It would be too hasty for Jia to marry me, to marry Qin and Jin with my Dajing."

Qiu Shui on the side couldn't help but interjected: "Madam, could it be that at the beginning of the year it was rumored that the son of Zhongzheng would return to the country to visit his relatives, which drove their lord into a hurry?"

"You mean, the priest of Miluo prophesied?" Fang Ziqin raised his eyebrows, Qiu Shui pursed his lips and said, "I dare not speak nonsense. It's just..."

She didn't go on, Fang Ziqin knew it in his heart, and then changed his voice, "How is Lan'er today?"

"Third Miss is still silent today. Although there is Miss Awan talking to her, she still doesn't respond." Qiu Shui showed a worried look, "Your Majesty, Third Miss..."

"Let her go." Fang Ziqin stood up, straightened her sleeves, and Qiushui was puzzled when she saw this, "Your Majesty, this is..."

"I haven't gone to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager today." Fang Ziqin restrained her expression, but Qiu Shui was startled.

After the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, she didn't know whether it was to avoid suspicion or what, she stayed in seclusion all day long, so she avoided the greetings from the palaces, and she felt quite at ease to take care of herself, but only asked about the affairs of the harem.

Fang Ziqin was noncommittal, but rarely went to pay his respects. Except for the Queen Mother, Yucheng Wang Li Qiyou and Dejia Princess Li Qianning, there were almost no other people in Yuzhang Palace.

At this juncture, I'm afraid Princess Dejia Li Qianning will be there, but I don't know if she is going to beg the Empress Dowager to refuse her marriage, or...

"Why, are you afraid of meeting Dejia?" Fang Ziqin glanced sideways at Qiushui who was following her. After she came out of Fengyi Palace, she looked very preoccupied.

"Your Majesty, Princess Dejia refuses to get married. Everyone in the harem knows about this." Qiu Shui wondered, "If we meet Princess Dejia in Yuzhang Palace at this time, I'm afraid Your Majesty will also be involved."

"Marriage is a marriage between two surnames. Marriage between two countries is even more so." Fang Ziqin looked indifferent, "As the empress of Dajing, this marriage will be placed in front of my palace sooner or later. Whether to marry or not, it is up to His Majesty to decide, no one else can."

Her voice was neither soft nor heavy, but there was an aura of calm and prestige, which made Qiu Shui dare not say more, so she could only follow with her head bowed.

When they arrived at Yuzhang Palace, before Fang Ziqin entered, he heard a bang inside, as if something had been smashed, and then Li Qianning's voice sounded, "Grandmother, I don't want to marry! Miluo, a wild place, is no better than Baiyue." How much better is the place of smog, Li Shengxuan is willing to go get married by himself, don't even think about it..."

"Dejia, don't be presumptuous." The Empress Dowager's voice was a bit harsh, and Li Qianning said coquettishly, "Grandmother, you love me the most. How can you bear to see me marry into a place like Miluo? Besides, the Miluo Lord is Concubine, the Queen Mother Lin in the palace has always had a rift with her, if I marry in such a palace, how will I live?"

She said and knelt down with a plop, "Grandmother, please feel sorry for your granddaughter and refuse this marriage..."

Hearing this, Fang Ziqin walked in slowly, bypassing Li Qianning who was kneeling on the ground, and respectfully saluted the Empress Dowager, the voice of greeting overshadowed Li Qianning's complaints.

"Empress!" Li Qianning straightened up in dissatisfaction, raised her head to look at Fang Ziqin and said, "I have never seen you come to my grandmother's palace to pay my respects. You are so attentive today. Could it be that you deliberately came to see me as a joke..."

"Xiao Ning." The queen mother who was silent at the side couldn't help but lightly reprimanded, "Don't be rude to the queen."

Li Qianning curled her lips and turned her head to the side, instead of looking at Fang Ziqin, she only heard the Queen Mother say: "Queen, Xiao Ning is spoiled by Ai's family, don't take her words to heart."

"Dejia is still young, so I won't care about her, but..." Fang Ziqin deliberately paused for a moment, with a sharp look in his eyes, "If Dejia gets married in the future, he will still be so ignorant , will only make people look down on the Dajing imperial family."

What she said was an obvious knock. How could the empress dowager and the empress dowager not hear it when they have been in the harem for many years?

So the Empress Dowager's expression turned serious immediately, "Ziqin, what do you mean by that?"

"The Miluo Guoshu was delivered yesterday, and I don't need to say much about what was written in it. I think you both know it." Fang Ziqin said word by word: "This matter is for His Majesty to decide, and no one else can comment on it, but... ..."

She stared fixedly at Li Qianning, her voice became a little colder, "If De Jia would rather die than die, this palace does not want to force it. After all, the marriage between the two countries is a major national event. If it is good, whether there is a hundred years of peace is close at hand. If it's not good, it's unknown if wars will be fought against each other."

Hearing that Li Qianning's complexion turned pale, Fang Ziqin didn't pay attention to her intentions at all, and continued on her own, "If you don't have the awareness for such a big event, it's better not to do it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

 When I met Li Qianning from Fang Ziqin, be like——I fell into a trap and had to help others, for fear that I would not be the prey of the stew
