Chapter 513 She must have seen it wrong.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Cui He asked with concern.
"I don't know, too many things happened today..."
Wei Qingwan was in a state of confusion.
It was originally a great thing for her to accompany King Yu and Princess to attend the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet. She finally had the opportunity to meet King Yu.
However, the reality was very different from what she expected, and King Yu had no reaction when he saw her.
Talking to her was just about Wei Qingruo.
This gave her a deep sense of crisis. If she couldn't be favored, she didn't know what her situation would be like in the palace in the future.
The prince seems to be very concerned about Wei Qingruo's affairs, and the princess seems to hope that she can get closer to Wei Qingruo.
But how could she swallow this breath and make friends with Wei Qingruo? She took the position of Prince Yu's concubine just so that she could step on Wei Qingruo!
What should she do? Can you make good use of your relationship with Wei Qingruo without being overpowered by Wei Qingruo?
Another thing that she couldn't let go of was Prince Rui's appearance.
Although the lights at the palace banquet were not as bright as during the day, they were not too dark. When King Rui spoke, she was not too far away from him. In that case, was it possible to misunderstand?
Wei Qingwan was a little annoyed. She had known that when she and Princess Yu went to toast Wei Qingruo, she should have taken a look at Prince Rui's appearance. They were even closer at that time, and she should have been able to see it at that time. A little clearer.
"Miss, miss, what's wrong with you?" Cuihe asked worriedly when he saw Wei Qingwan was in a daze.
"Cuihe, did you see clearly when the second brother's body was brought back?" Wei Qingwan asked.
"This... How dare you look at this slave? I heard from other people that the second young master was chopped to pieces by the bandits and died in a miserable state. In addition, it took some time to bring the body back and it has started to rot. It is very scary." Cui Cui. He replied.
After finishing speaking, Cuihe asked Wei Qingwan: "Miss, why are you asking this question? It's scary to ask this question to a dead person." "It's okay."
Wei Qingwan didn't know how to say this.
She must have misunderstood. One is a concubine of the Wei family, and the other is a legitimate prince. The identities of the two are so different, how can they be connected?
Moreover, Prince Rui was a sick man and his life was short-lived. Wei Jin was also in good health and would not have lost his life at such a young age if he had not suffered a misfortune.
It was late at night, Wei Qingwan washed and changed clothes under Cui He's service. After lying down, she was still full of doubts, worries and unwillingness. She looked at the moonlight shining through the window in front of the bed and could not fall asleep for a long time.

Ruiwangfu.
As soon as Wei Ruo returned home, he immediately washed up and then went to bed.
"I'm really exhausted." Wei Ruo felt exhausted.
"Miss, I've never seen you so tired after a day of farm work." Xiumei teased Wei Ruo with a smile.
"This is different. Farm work is tiring the body, but attending such an occasion is tiring the mind! Your young lady, I am not good at giving in to them. There are many rules in the palace. This is the first time for me to appear in such a place. On this occasion, if you do something wrong and say something wrong and lose your head, wouldn’t you lose a lot of money? Your young lady’s head is very valuable!” Wei Ruo asked many questions before attending the palace banquet
. He had also done some mental preparation for the matter, but after all, this was the first time that he had made no mistakes and could respond to the emperor's questions calmly. Wei Ruo felt that he was doing well.
It is inevitable to be a little nervous and tired. How can most people be able to do this kind of thing for the first time with ease? Wei Ruo couldn't do it anyway, and she felt that her ability to deal with this aspect was limited.
"But Miss, you have to offer this thing yourself. It will be very tiring, but Miss, you still took the initiative to do it." Xiumei said.
"Yes, who is your lady? I want to see the anti-Japanese army win the battle? And I don't want to give this credit to others in vain. My second brother said that if this thing is done, I can exchange for a lot of rewards, but that's The white silver is there! It might even be yellow gold!" Wei Ruo said helplessly.
Xiumei nodded in agreement: "Of course you can't give credit to others in vain."
After saying that, Xiumei came forward and rubbed Wei Ruo's shoulders: "Miss, I will give you a shoulder massage to relieve fatigue. I will give you some more in a while. You deserve the soothing incense, you should have a good rest."
"Meimei still loves me." Wei Ruo smiled with a smile on his face.
"I don't care for you, who will care for you! Miss, you are crying tired, but all you want to do is not miss a single thing." Xiumei said angrily.
"There's nothing I can do about it. I feel uncomfortable if I don't do some things for your lady." Wei Ruo narrowed her eyes and enjoyed Xiumei's massage service comfortably.
Xiumei smiled and continued to talk to Wei Ruo while squeezing: "I heard from Sister Lin Fang that the prince has other arrangements for the thunderbolts and the powerful cannon?" "Tomorrow, the emperor will personally observe the respect I gave you
. I will probably ask my second brother about the manufacturing of the front-loaded smoothbore cannon, and my second brother should have his own plans." Wei Ruodao.
Wei Ruo didn't ask specifically. She was interrupted when her second brother wanted to say that her brain was used to store the things she was good at. She couldn't understand the design struggles in the palace, so she didn't need to bother with this. Good brain.
They have always had a clear division of labor. She is responsible for telling her second brother what she wants to do. If he agrees, she will agree. If she disagrees, she will give up temporarily.
How to use this matter in the future is her second brother's business. She only cares about the money-making part.
For example, "Xu Heyou's death", she just put forward her request - to have Xu Heyou die. Originally, she wanted to arrange for Xu Heyou to fall off a cliff or be accidentally poisoned. It was the assassination arranged by her second brother. Then they used this to make the Qi family and King Jing suspicious of each other.
The same thing happened this time.
After relaxing for a while, Wei Ruo fell asleep peacefully smelling the soothing incense she had prepared herself.
She didn't know that tonight would be a sleepless night for many people.

Prince Jing’s Mansion.
In front of Chu Lan stood his confidant Xue Shaoyuan, dressed in a smart black robe with embroidered fish patterns, with a stern face and an obvious scar on his face.
"Your Majesty, the investigation you asked your subordinates to investigate has come to fruition. Xu Heyou indeed has this person. His household registration information can be found in Taizhou Prefecture. He is the cousin of Xu Zhengyong, the deputy guard of the Anti-Japanese Army, and Xu Zhengyong's mother is Princess Rui's nanny, Princess Rui lived with her nanny's family when she was in Huzhou Prefecture, and she has a very close connection with the Xu family," Xue Shaoyuan said.
After Xu Heyou died, Chu Lan ordered Xue Shaoyuan to investigate Xu Heyou's identity.
If Xu Heyou is pretending to be Wei Qingruo, then he should not have the corresponding household registration information.
