The prince's personal bodyguard

In the Tianzi No. 1 box of Tianyi Pavilion, Changli and Yan San were guarding the door.

Mr. Xuan Su: "The old prince and princess will arrive in Kyoto soon. What does the prince think of the rumors outside?"

"My uncle is well versed in worldly affairs and should know that a tall tree attracts the wind. Although I have handed over the military power, my prestige and influence are still there. The 200,000 Southwest Army cannot be underestimated by my father. If I marry my uncle, my power will be too great and will arouse the suspicion of the emperor. If the emperor feels that the imperial power is threatened, it will be a disaster."

"Your Highness is very wise, but Miss Lin Wan'er from the Prime Minister's Mansion is infatuated with you, so I'm afraid this won't end well." Nan Huaijin reminded.

"She is not an ordinary rich girl. She may be tempted by the moment, but she will eventually understand the big picture. Besides, I am not thinking about her, and the rumors from the outside world will mislead her. I ask Mr. Xuansu to find an opportunity to communicate with my uncle about the pros and cons and make plans early."

"Yes." Mr. Xuan Su replied.

"There's news from the palace. I heard that during the Qianqiu Festival, the Emperor might choose a consort for the Eighth Princess. The Eighth Princess is also interested in the Prince, and marrying her to the Princess isn't a very good outcome. Should we prepare for this in advance?" Nan Huaijin said.

Most people who marry a princess can only be given the title of a consort, and it is difficult for them to make substantial progress in their official careers, which is almost the same as being banished to the cold palace in the officialdom. The royal family is the emperor, and marrying a princess means having a big Buddha serve at home, with all kinds of restrictions. It may also be accompanied by surveillance, and various hidden dangers are buried around. The two were not optimistic about this marriage.

"Although the Eighth Princess is talented, she is not a good match for the prince." Mr. Xuan Su said.

Their prince must marry someone who has hidden power, or someone who can help the prince in his career. He must not be a prominent figure, nor an incompetent and mean person. Only in this way can he remain invincible for a long time.

"Leave this matter to Mr. Huaijin. Be extremely careful. If it doesn't work out, that's fine. There's no point in getting involved."

"Yes." Nan Huaijin obeyed.

At the hour of You, in Prince Rong’s mansion, I am in love with him.

Bai Xinyin took out the Qiankun Mirror given to her by her master. This mirror is a Taoist magic weapon that has been placed in the magic weapon room of Baiyun Temple for a thousand years and has been covered with dust. Three days before leaving the mountain, her master asked her to go to the magic weapon room to choose a few magic weapons. She took a fancy to a peach wood magic sword and a Sanqing bell. When she reached out to take the Sanqing bell, her hand accidentally touched the edge of the mirror. The mirror suddenly floated in the air, emitting a dazzling light, illuminating the entire Baiyun Temple.

The master said that many people had chosen it over the years, but it was not even as good as an ordinary mirror in their hands, so they all gave it back. Now it was opened by her, and she had a connection with it. He also gave her a book on the use of magic tools, so that she could practice how to control these magic tools.

This mirror is called the Taoist Qiankun Bagua Mirror. Most people think it can only adjust Feng Shui and ward off evil spirits. But what most people don't know is that this mirror can also illuminate and capture demons. When used with a talisman, one can see the person and things on the other end of the talisman.

He chanted a spell and pointed at the mirror. This was Bai Xinyin's first time using it. Bai Xinyin had put the spell on him when he and the Ninth Prince were fighting.

The Ninth Prince's big head appeared in the mirror first. Oh? Bai Xinyin looked at the mirror. Why was his mouth facing upwards? And it was lying down? He smiled secretly in his heart, straightened it, and adjusted the distance.

The Ninth Prince seemed to have just finished school. The old eunuch behind him was carrying an examination box containing pens, ink, paper, inkstone and books.

The Ninth Prince entered the Junlan Palace where Concubine Lan lived. As soon as he stepped through the door, he raised his leg and kicked the maid at the door. The maid did not dare to argue and just endured it. Then, he rushed into the room angrily.

"What happened to the prince today? Tell your mother where you got upset." When Concubine Lan heard that the Ninth Prince went to the Shangshufang in the afternoon, she was very happy the whole afternoon. But when she saw his appearance, she thought that he was being lectured by the Grand Tutor again.

"Tell you? What's the use of telling you!" The Ninth Prince seemed to have no respect for Concubine Lan at all. "He's the little guard from Prince Rong's mansion. How dare he play tricks on me? I'll find someone to skin him alive tomorrow!" He looked vicious and asked for a beating.

"How could a mere guard make the prince so angry? I will tell your father tonight and punish him. The prince will not be angry anymore."

The Ninth Prince snorted coldly: "How long has it been since Father saw you? What are you capable of telling Father?"

"You don't have to worry about this, my son. If your mother wants to see your father, she has her own way." Concubine Lan comforted with a smile.

The Ninth Prince glanced at Concubine Lan and didn't take it seriously.

Bai Xinyin looked at Lan Fei in the mirror. The mirror was a little small, so although she could not see clearly, she could still see roughly. You would not know until you see it. You would be surprised. At first glance, Lan Fei actually looked a bit like her mother, especially her eyes, which were like two pools of autumn water. The flowing waves in her eyes were full of charm and could easily absorb people's souls.

Normally, Concubine Lan is nearly 40 years old, and no matter how well she takes care of herself, her appearance will be affected by time. But Concubine Lan's skin color looks like that of a 17 or 18-year-old girl. No wonder, Concubine Lan was born in a low-class family and has a soft personality. Although it is rumored that she has never been favored, she has always been favored. I wonder what secret technique she used to maintain her youth, Bai Xinyin thought to herself.

Since Bai Xinyin learned Yin medicine at Baiyun Temple, he found that some things that Yang medicine could not solve and explain before really existed. No wonder Grandpa said that knowledge is endless. When you reach a certain level, you will suddenly find that you know very little. The more you learn, the more you gain knowledge, and the more you feel that what you have learned is just the tip of the iceberg. Later, you can't even talk about the tip of the iceberg.

It was time for dinner, and the maids set the table and served the dinner.

There were three sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table. Bai Xinyin thought that the Eighth Princess would also have dinner together, and was about to leave. At this time, the Ninth Prince said, "Mother always puts out an extra set of bowls and chopsticks every day, saying that they are for the Eighth Sister, but the Eighth Sister never comes to use them?"

"What does a child know? Even if she doesn't come, mother still has her in her heart." For some reason, Concubine Lan quickly changed the subject, "Look, mother has prepared your favorite spicy hot pot. This was popular in Kyoto some time ago. Mother specially sent someone to learn how to make it from the chef of Tianyi Pavilion. Come and try it. Is it delicious?"

…………

A secret to keeping your youthful appearance, an extra set of bowls and chopsticks for eating? You can also call the emperor to Junlan Palace at any time...

Bai Xinyin's mind flashed, and he seemed to understand something. He would ask the eunuch tomorrow to verify it before making any plans. Thinking of this, he began to think about what would happen tomorrow.

The rule of not talking while eating and not talking while sleeping was fully demonstrated by the mother and daughter. During the entire dinner process, no one spoke a word. After the meal, the Ninth Prince returned to his residence. Bai Xinyin collected her magic power and lay down on the bed exhausted.

Doing this kind of thing is very energy-consuming and there is no need to do it often.

Zixuan brought the food, Bai Xinyin ate a little and then went to rest, and had no dreams all night until dawn.

The next day, Bai Xinyin went to the morning court with the prince. She waited at the palace gate for the prince and others to go to the court. The patrol team just passed by. She looked around and saw that there was no one around. She quickly walked to the place where she met the little eunuch yesterday. After a few "meows and coos", the little eunuch crawled out of the dog hole.

"Where did the emperor rest yesterday?"

"Junlan Palace."

"Has the Queen shown any signs of loosening up recently? Is there any chance of getting close?"

"Although the Queen is under house arrest in Changchun Palace, the information is still kept secret from the outside world. Our people can only inquire from a distance."

"Okay, go back and keep an eye out. If there's any emergency, notify the newly appointed Liu Caiban in the palace kitchen, or Old Yutou who transports the night incense..."

After explaining some things, Bai Xinyin went back immediately. Just as he stood beside the carriage, a eunuch came over and asked Bai Xinyin to go to the front door of the palace and wait for a summons.
