Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 526: Mrs. Qian in the Kitchen

Prince Fu's Mansion.

Seeing how anxious Manager Chen was, the gatekeeper also became nervous.

At this time, they also understood that something might have happened.

"Reporting to the steward, Mrs. Qian has been gone for about half an hour."

Manager Chen thought to himself that this was bad. More than half an hour had already passed and he had no idea where he could find anyone.

"Who introduced this old lady Qian? Does anyone know where she lives?"

Manager Chen asked Doctor Wang to go back and rest.

This old man looks like he is exhausted.

Butler Chen rushed to the kitchen without stopping.

He wanted to ask the people here if they had any clues about Mrs. Qian.

Both he and the prince were careless in this matter.

They were only paying attention to the people in the main courtyard, but they didn't expect it.

When the Crown Prince's wife first arrived at the palace, she was in charge of the household affairs for a period of time.

It would have been very easy for her to place her own people in the mansion at that time.

"Replying to Manager Chen, this old woman Qian was brought here by the Crown Prince's Consort herself. At that time, the Crown Prince's Consort only told her to help out in the kitchen."

The manager of the kitchen was a fat old woman who stepped forward boldly to answer.

Hearing her say this, Manager Chen had an even worse premonition.

"Then who among you knows where that old lady Qian lives? There will be a huge reward for you."

Everyone in the big kitchen looked at each other.

They also want to get the reward, but they really don’t know.

"Mrs. Li, aren't you usually on good terms with Mrs. Qian? Do you know where Mrs. Qian lives?"

The steward of the big kitchen asked Mrs. Li.

The key point is that she agreed to let Mrs. Qian leave the house today.

She never dreamed that this old lady Qian would cause trouble.

Judging from the look on Manager Chen's face, this disaster might be quite serious.

With the mentality of making amends, she is now working hard to help Manager Chen to remedy the situation.

Mrs. Li was thinking about this matter when Manager Chen mentioned that there would be a huge reward.

"Sir, this old lady Qian is very tight-lipped. Although I have a good relationship with her, she has never told me where she lives."

Mrs. Li clapped her hands in annoyance.

That old lady Qian, it’s a pity that I have such a good relationship with her.

If she tells me where she lives, won't I become rich?

"Think carefully, when she chatted with you, did she ever mention her relationship with the Crown Prince's wife, or where she came from?"

Although Manager Chen was extremely anxious, he still tried to remain calm and asked Mrs. Li.

"this…"

Mrs. Li tried desperately to recall in her mind what Mrs. Qian had said.

"I remember one time I was drinking with that old woman Qian, she was drunk and said she was the dowry of the prince's wife."

Mrs. Li cried out.

Since Mrs. Qian was drunk when she said that, Mrs. Li didn't take it seriously and just thought she was bragging.

If she was really the Crown Prince's wife's dowry, how could she still be doing odd jobs in the kitchen?

So Mrs. Li didn't take this matter to heart and didn't think of asking her about it afterwards.

"The dowry of the Crown Prince's wife?"

Steward Chen only knew that the Crown Prince's Consort came from the fiefdom of Prince Fu's Mansion.

He really didn't know whether she had any farm or shop as a dowry in the capital.

This matter can only be discussed after the prince returns.

Not to mention that Manager Chen was in a state of panic in the mansion.

Young Prince Fu heard the news from the person sent by Steward Chen, telling him to return home quickly.

He also rushed back at full speed.

Manager Chen was waiting at the gate.

He saw Little Prince Fu and Little Anzi coming back on horseback and hurried to meet them.

"Sir... I just found out from your questioning that the old woman Qian who ran away was the dowry of the prince's wife..."

"Call a few people and ask them to go to the main courtyard immediately."

As the little Prince Fu spoke, he walked quickly towards the main courtyard.

Without mentioning Manager Chen, he quickly gathered people.

The young Prince Fu walked to the main courtyard and kicked open the door of the Crown Prince's wife's bedroom.

The Crown Prince's Consort, who was leaning against the head of the bed with her eyes closed, opened her eyes in fright.

Nanny Ji, who had been waiting in the room, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Prince, what are you doing?"

The Crown Princess looked at the young Prince Fu in surprise.

She thought that what she did today was perfect.

So she was still very surprised by the sudden arrival of the young Prince Fu.

"There is another person in this room. Call her over."

Xiao Anzi ordered.

Since it was Nanny Ji who warned us about this matter, the one with the problem could only be another person.

"I asked Qiuxiang to rest. Prince, is there something wrong?"

The Crown Princess also had a bad premonition at this time.

Could it be that...what she and Qiuxiang did today was exposed?

But it shouldn't be.

That treacherous Nanny Ji never left her sight.

In theory, no one would doubt this.

If there was anyone else, it would be Doctor Wang who came to examine her.

But Doctor Wang only felt her pulse and didn't show any difference from usual.

For a moment, the Crown Princess thought a lot.

She still felt that her careful planning had no flaws.

Qiuxiang was dragged out of her bedroom by Xiao Anzi.

Qiuxiang was really dragged out.

She looked like she was sleeping, wearing only her underwear.

At this time, Manager Chen also came over with a few guards.

"Drag her to the yard and beat her until she tells you the truth."

Little Prince Fu had a gloomy face and uttered his first words since arriving at the main courtyard.

"Prince, what did Qiuxiang do wrong? How could you treat her like this?"

The Crown Princess screamed.

"What did you tell her to do? Don't you know what's going on?"

The young Prince Fu asked the Crown Princess in return.

The Crown Prince's wife narrowed her eyes guiltily.

"I don't understand what the prince said? Why did the prince come here and beat my people today? What's the logic behind it?"

The Crown Prince’s wife didn’t really care whether Qiuxiang was beaten or not.

The key point is that she was afraid that Qiuxiang would tell others what she had told her.

Then all her efforts would be in vain.

At this time, Qiuxiang had been dragged into the yard.

Those guards who are as ferocious as wolves and tigers will not show mercy to women.

Qiuxiang was pressed on a long bench that had been placed in the yard in advance.

"Crown Princess, save me...Crown Princess, save me..."

Perhaps having a premonition of her own fate, Qiuxiang howled miserably.

"Sir, what is it that you want to torture my people?"

The Crown Prince's Consort refused to give up.

She still felt that there was no chance that her plan would be exposed.

It could also be that the old woman, Nanny Ji, said something in front of the prince, which made him so angry.

"I believe the Crown Princess knows about the old lady Qian in the kitchen, right?"

Looking at the Crown Prince's Consort who was still pretending in front of him.

Little Prince Fu completely lost his patience.

When the Crown Princess heard the young Prince Fu mention Mrs. Qian, her back, which had been straight, suddenly collapsed.
