A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

Chapter 343 The Queen and the Crown Prince ask Zhao Yichen why he broke off the engagement

Shen Qingqian took the indenture from the housekeeper, took a look at it, and put it into her pocket.

She said to Zhiqing Zhizhu, "Then I will leave first. You two must protect Miss Mu well!"

"Don't worry, girl. We will do our best."

Where no one else could see, they even winked at each other.

"Your Majesty, farewell!"

Shen Qingqian achieved her goal and walked out without any reluctance.

"and many more!"

Zhao Yichen called her.

Shen Qingqian turned around and asked in confusion: "Does His Royal Highness Prince Chen have anything else to say?"

Zhao Yichen said: "Zhiqing and Zhizhu are not with you for the time being, I will send a few more people to you!"

Shen Qingqian smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but it's not necessary. I have someone I can use myself."

Although Shen Qingqian had a smile on her face, her attitude was very firm. Zhao Yichen didn't know what to say.

After Shen Qingqian left, Zhao Yichen took Mu Xinyue to the palace to meet the queen.

The Queen has been in a good mood these past two days because the Prince's poison has been almost cured.

The prince's health has improved, and the queen now has more time to worry about other things!

She had already found out that Concubine Dong was not ill, but had angered the emperor and was imprisoned. The cause of the incident was related to a letter that Shen Qingqian gave to the emperor.

The Queen felt that Shen Qingqian was a lucky star for her and her son. Not only did she find the blood ganoderma and save the Prince's life, but she also helped her defeat a strong enemy like Concubine Dong.

But the Queen also learned that half of the reason why Shen Qingqian broke off the engagement with Zhao Yichen was because of the woman Zhao Yichen brought back from the southern border.

That's why the Queen asked Zhao Yichen to bring Mu Xinyue to see her.

She wanted to see what kind of woman could ruin the marriage of Zhao Yichen and Shen Qingqian!

As Zhao Yichen and Mu Xinyue stepped into the Queen's Qingning Palace, a palace maid came to greet them.

"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty the King of the Morning."

The maid bowed to Zhao Yichen first, then said, "Your Highness, the Queen and the Crown Prince are talking in the main hall. You can just go in directly now."

She looked at Mu Xinyue and said, "This is Miss Mu, right? Miss Mu, please follow me to the back garden first. The queen will go to the back garden to appreciate the flowers later and will summon Miss Mu there."

"Yes."

Mu Xinyue smiled and answered while kneeling down.

The back garden of the Queen's Palace is very large, with corridors and pavilions, rockery and ponds, and many peach trees. Every March, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, making the entire back garden beautiful.

The maid said she wanted to take Mu Xinyue to visit the back garden, and Zhao Yichen didn't think much about it. He said to Mu Xinyue, "Then I'll go in first. The Queen Mother's back garden is very beautiful, and there are many peach trees. You can feast your eyes."

Mu Xinyue was secretly delighted, thinking that the Queen must be pleased with her, otherwise she would have just asked her to wait at the door. Why would she have ordered someone to take her to appreciate the peach blossoms?

"Okay, Brother Yichen, you go ahead! I'll just follow this palace maid."

"Ah."

Zhao Yichen nodded to her and stepped into the main hall.

"My sons and ministers see their mother and queen."

Zhao Yichen first bowed to the queen on the high seat, then looked at the prince and said, "Greetings, my brother."

Although the prince's poison has been almost cured, he has been tortured by the illness for so long that he will need some time to recover.

He looks fine now, but he is still in a wheelchair.

"No courtesy, sit down!"

The Queen raised her hand and said with a smile, "Your brother, the Crown Prince, will move back to the Crown Prince's Mansion tomorrow to recuperate. I specifically asked you to come over today to talk."

Zhao Yichen sat down below the crown prince and said, "My royal brother looks in good spirits. He should be getting better soon."

The Queen nodded and said, "Yes, Doctor Fang said that within ten days, you won't have to travel in a wheelchair anymore."

She paused and continued, "It was thanks to General Qingyi that she and Feng'er found the blood ganoderma, and Doctor Fang was able to prepare the antidote."

The Queen had only discussed this matter with the Emperor and the Crown Prince, and had not mentioned it to anyone else.

Today was the first time I mentioned this matter to Zhao Yichen.

Therefore, Zhao Yichen didn't know that Shen Qingqian and Zhao Yifeng were looking for medicine together. Hearing the queen say this, he was really a little surprised.

"Mother, are you saying that Shen Qingqian and Yifeng found the Blood Ganoderma together?"

The Queen nodded, "Yes, I have not disclosed this matter because I am afraid of bringing trouble to Shen Qingqian and Feng'er.

Obviously, someone was hoping for the prince's death, and the other party's strength should not be underestimated. If they knew that it was Shen Qingqian and Feng'er who ruined their plan, they would definitely bear a grudge against them.

Although you and Shen Qingqian have broken off the engagement, I believe that you don't want anything to happen to her and you won't tell anyone about it. That's why I'm telling you about this today."

Zhao Yichen was silent, and no one knew what he was thinking!

The prince looked at him and asked, "Yi Chen, did you break off the engagement with Shen Qingqian because of the woman you brought back from the southern border?"

"no!"

Zhao Yichen answered quickly, almost blurting out the answer.

After a pause, he continued, "It was Shen Qingqian who proposed to break off the engagement. She was the one who wanted to break off the engagement with me."

Of course the prince knew this, and Shen Qingqian even used the blood ganoderma as a bargaining chip to get his mother's approval. This shows how determined Shen Qingqian was.

"Then why did she insist on breaking off the engagement with you?"

Zhao Yichen was silent again. The Queen and the Crown Prince just looked at him, waiting for his answer.

After a moment, Zhao Yichen said, "She doesn't like Xinyue, and even hates her a little. But I promised General Mu that I would take care of Xinyue. Therefore, a conflict arose between us."

The queen showed an ambiguous expression and said, "So, between the two of them, you finally chose Mu Xinyue, right?"

"In fact, Xinyue has always hoped to get along well with Shen Qingqian, and has been trying to make peace with her, but Shen Qingqian is too strong."

Zhao Yichen explained.

"Shen Qingqian is indeed a strong person, and she is also a person who clearly distinguishes between love and hate, but I feel that she would never hate someone for no reason."

The queen has lived in the deep palace for a long time. What tricks have women used that she has not seen? How could she believe that Mu Xinyue would really show her affection to Shen Qingqian!

If Mu Xinyue was a good person, how could she cause Zhao Yichen and Shen Qingqian to break off their engagement?

Zhao Yichen recounted what happened at the city gate on the day they returned from the southern border.

He added: "Xinyue did something wrong that day, but she already knows she was wrong. But since that incident, Shen Qingqian has been a little dislike to Xinyue.

Later, some things happened, which made the gap between Shen Qingqian and I grow wider and wider, so that we finally had to call off the engagement."
