The Fourth Lady
Chapter 382 Guifei's Choice (Ⅱ)

Hearing what Qilian Yvran said, Ding Shuqi didn't know how to reply. Although she got involved in what happened in the past, Zier was directly killed by Fengqin. Now Fengqin had been thrown into the Cold Palace.

"Sister, I just want an answer now. If you can tell me the truth now, I can also guarantee that his majest will never know your relationship with the Ninth King." Looking at Ding Shuqi, Qilian Yvran said aggressively, "sister, you should know you should do."

Hearing what Qilian Yvran said, Ding Shuqi knelt down and said, "sister, I did get involved in what happened to Zier, but I didn't expect that Fengqin would kill Zier. I..." For a moment, Ding Shuqi did not know how to defend herself. After all, she also took part in what happened back then, which was a fact she could not refute in any way.

"Okay." "I knew you would tell me the truth. In that case, I will keep my promise." said Qilian Yvran with a smile on her face Looking at her, Qilian Yvran said indifferently, "sister, since you've decided to work for me, you should know my rules. I'm not easy to get along with." Hearing that, Ding Shuqi was relieved. She had heard that Qilian Yvran was not east to get along with, but now it seemed that Qilian Yvran only hated to be involved in dirty tricks the most. That was also the reason why she didn't get along well with the empress. The empress thought she had a good relationship with Qilian Yvran, but perhaps in the eyes of Qilian Yvran, it was just disdainful. She disdained to grab something from the empress, and those things were insignificant in her eyes.

"Now that you are willing to accept me, then I will work for you from now on." Looking at Qilian Yvran, Ding Shuqi said earnestly, "I will always be on your side, so will the Ninth King. You have my word."

On hearing Ding Shuqi's words, a smile quirked up on Qilian Yvran's face.

What Yanyan said was right. Ding Shuqi was indeed important to the Ninth King, or he wouldn't allow her to turn to them.

At the thought of this, Qilian Yvran went to Ding Shuqi and held her up. "Since you are on my side now, I might as well tell you that Zhaoyi Ning is also one of us. She is now a chess piece we set in front of Concubine Yi."

Upon hearing this, Ding Shuqi widened her eyes. She had never expected that Ning Sicai also worked for Qilian Yvran. As it was said that the relationship between Concubine Yi and Ning Sicai was very good. It would be very interesting if Concubine Yi knew that Ning Sicai was also Qilian Yvran's subordinates.

"Sister, I didn't expect that she is also on our side." Looking at Qilian Yvran, Ding Shuqi said earnestly, "but sister, please don't worry. Now that I have made the decision, I'll work for you in the future. Please trust me."

After listening to Ding Shuqi's words, Qilian Yvran nodded with a smile on his face. "So we have a plan next, and I think it's necessary to tell you. Our next plan is to deal with Marquis Jingguo, so I hope the Ninth King can do something that is he is supposed to do." After listening to Qilian Yvran's words, Ding Shuqi nodded earnestly. "Sister, don't worry. If you really want to deal with Marquis Jingguo, I think the Ninth King can certainly help you, because he has his spies in the mansion." Hearing Ding Shuqi's words, Su Qingyan and Murong Jingxuan, who had been standing behind the curtain, narrowed their eyes. They really didn't expect that Jingguo Marquis would arrange his spies to spy on Marquis Jingguo.

But when Qingyan heard Ding Shuqi's words, she fell into deep thought. Although she didn't know who was the Ninth King's spy, she already had an answer in her mind.

"Guifei, I just want to ask you one thing. Is that spy Ning Chenhui's mother?"

This familiar voice drew Ding Shuqi's attention. She looked up and saw a young woman in green walking slowly towards her, followed by Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yvzhen.

Hearing this, Ding Shuqi didn't know how to answer. When she was about to say something, Xuanyuan Yvzhen continued, "Yanyan, it looks like you're right. But why do you think that Ning Chenhui's mother is the Ninth King's spy?"

Looking at Xuanyuan Yvzhen, Qingyan smiled but didn't say anything. Then she said indifferently, "I've investigated Ning Chenhui. Although I knew he worked for Second Prince. However, according to his character, he wanted to help Second Prince probably because Xuanyuan Yvfan could hand Marquis Jingguo to him. Now, I think it's there is only one reason why Ning Chenhui hates Marquis Jingguo so much. It must be because of his mother. Although I don't know who her mother is...

"Ning Chenhui's mother is my sister." Looking at the three of them, Ding Shuqi said calmly, "this is also the reason why Chenhui is willing to help us. Although he seems to work for Xuanyuan Yvfan, he is actually on our side."

Su Qingyan looked at Ding Shuqi and hinted her to go on talking. Ding Shuqi continued after she had received it, "She volunteered to marry Marquis Jingguo, and that was the reason why we were able to know so many secrets of Marquis Jingguo. But I didn't expect that Marquis Jingguo found out her identity and executed her secretly. At that time, Chenhui has already grown up. That's why he hated Marquis Jingguo very much. But Marquis Jingguo told him that his mother died of lung disease..." "Did Ning Chenhui agree to with you to spy on the Second Prince?" "Then why did him do that? The the rabbit pestilence was caused by Ning Chenhui. No one would have died if he didn't do it." Su Qingyan asked seriously.

"That's right. So many people in the Mao City have suffered great losses because of Ning Chenhui's self arrogance. Don't tell me you do not know this." Xuanyuan Yvzhen stared at Ding Shuqi and said cautiously. Looking at Xuanyuan Yvzhen, Ding Shuqi said helplessly, "this is the suggestion from Xuanyuan Shi in order to win the trust of the Second Prince. We didn't expect that he would target at the Fourth Prince." Huh. Su Qingyan looked at Ding Shuqi and sneered.

"Guifei, since you have chosen to work for us. why don't you tell us the truth?" "Maybe it was because Ning Chenhui wanted to kill my fourth brother at that time. After all, he is the most capable person to inherit the throne." Su Qingyan looked at Ding Shuqi and said in a slow tone.
