The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

The onlookers were all confused.

Hu Luanfei was slightly distracted, and the conversation between the Queen and Concubine De turned to her.

Thinking of what happened at Zuihualou, she now wished she could grow a pair of wings and fly away.

The same was true for Qi Siliao, who was on his way back to Daqian. He was still unhappy with Qi Sili.

There was a long silence in the carriage.

The two brothers did not look at each other, but closed their eyes to rest.

When we arrived at the post station, it was already dark.

The documents that were urgently delivered by a galloping horse were placed on the round wooden table.

Qi Sili reviewed it and then passed it to Qi Siriao.

Recently, the barbarians in the northwest have become more rampant. Daqian used offense as defense, forcing the barbarians to retreat step by step. This is a good thing, but there are spies in the camp, and General Nan, who went to the battle with illness, was ambushed and seriously injured. The barbarians are reborn and are pressing forward step by step.

Qi Si Liao held his aching brow and said coldly, "The people in the northwest are tough and brave. The residents there are proficient in riding and shooting. They are arrogant and fickle and can be easily instigated to rebel. I have told my father before that we don't need to be soft-hearted towards the barbarians. If we subdue them once and for all, they will not dare to offend us."

Qi Sili frowned but did not speak immediately. After thinking for a moment, he took out the map and placed it on the table. He pointed to the hilltop with a red cross and said, "Ten miles beyond this hill is the Nanqi border area. I heard that Nanqi has a secret medicine that can defeat the enemy without a fight or even turn against us."

When Qi Si Liao opened his mouth, his tone was cold and distant, like the unmelted snow on the Arctic Mountains. "This medicine is listed as a banned drug by Luan Fei. It will bring great harm to the people. It will not only destroy the harmony of the family, but also corrode the health and stability of a country. Brother Huang, no matter where you are or what you are going to do, remember not to use this medicine."

Qi Sili was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at Qi Siriao, and felt cold again, so he turned his eyes to look out the window, "You and Luan Fei..."

Qi Siliao replied: "The harp and the zither are in harmony."

Qi Sili hesitated for a moment and asked in a deep voice: "She used to be a maid beside me, you..."

"Brother Emperor, I have already made it clear a few days ago. There is no need to test my intentions again. Now that the barbarians are disturbing our territory, we should put state affairs first."

Qi Sili was so embarrassed by these words. In his seemingly calm eyes, a hint of cruelty flashed, and even if he hid it quickly, it still could not escape Qi Siliao's eyes.

At night the dew turns to frost and the cold wind is biting.

Qi Siliao held a candle and wrote a letter home.

Every stroke and every word was filled with his deep longing for Hu Luanfei.

When they were together, he always felt that it was okay to leave for a while occasionally.

But he ignored his own heart, thinking that it didn't matter how long he was away. He didn't expect that in the dead of night, when he closed his eyes, that pretty figure would take advantage of the opportunity to invade his thoughts.

It feels like a long time since we last met.

I don't know if she is living peacefully in Beiqiu Palace...

As for whether she was at peace in other people's eyes, Hu Luanfei didn't know. She only knew that after returning to Nuanchun Pavilion, Concubine De went to ask His Majesty for help, and got an imperial decree to return to her parents' home to visit her relatives. The decree also sent someone to Nuanchun Pavilion to inform her that she should quickly ask to leave the palace while His Majesty was in a good mood.

The lanterns swaying in the wind in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation emitted clear light, illuminating the long corridor path with incredible clarity.

Hu Luan rode her horse non-stop to the entrance of the Yangxin Palace. Before she could say anything, the eunuch guarding the door bowed and stretched out his hand to stop her, "Princess, the Queen is inside."

Hu Luanfei's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt like a little bird falling off a cliff, with a sense of uneasiness hanging in the air.

As soon as Concubine De left, she arrived right after. The Nuanchun Pavilion where she lived was not far from your Majesty's Yangxin Palace, and she arrived in less than a quarter of an hour. But she didn't expect that the Queen was faster than her.

"Shall we come again tomorrow?" Le Yao asked tentatively.

But the matter had not been properly handled yet. Hu Luanfei was afraid that the night would be long and there would be more trouble, so he resolutely waited at the door of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

The young eunuch came over and advised: "Princess, it's late at night and the dew is heavy. Please don't wait any longer."

"Eunuch, please go in and tell them that Princess Zhan has something urgent to discuss with you." Hu Luanfei took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and put it into the little eunuch's hand. "This is a little gift from me. Please accept it, Eunuch."

The young eunuch was also in a dilemma, but considering the jade bracelet was quite valuable, he was still moved. "I have to explain first, but it is up to your majesty to decide whether to see you or not."

"I know, go ahead."

When the young eunuch entered the Yangxin Palace, Le Yao looked unhappy: "The people in the harem are too bad. They are all very worried, as if they are afraid that we will snatch their majesty away."

Hu Luanfei turned around and looked at the remaining people in the corridor, and said in a cold tone: "I have figured it out now. Regardless of whether His Majesty allows it or not, we must leave the palace tonight."

The night wind gently blew the lanterns on the beams, and the swaying candlelight shone brightly on the ground, leaving two swaying shadows. The corridor was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.

Finally, the eunuch came out and whispered, "Princess, the Queen has ordered me to escort you back to Nuanchun Pavilion."

Hu Luanfei didn't even look at him, his eyes only glanced at the Yangxin Palace, "Your Majesty didn't say anything?"

Speaking of this, the young eunuch looked around cautiously and then quietly pushed the door to look into the Yangxin Palace. After knowing that no one was around, he whispered, "The Empress sent people to guard the palace, and I was scolded as soon as I entered the palace. After much persuasion, I finally saw the Emperor, but the Empress guessed that I came here for your matter, and sent me out again."

After being blown by the cold wind for most of the day, this is the result.

Hu Luanfei turned around and secretly tortured the queen thousands of times in his heart.

"My Lady Princess, you are now..."

Hu Luanfei lowered his voice and said, "Do you know where there is a good way to go?"

The young eunuch was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes cautiously, and saw Hu Luanfei slowly approaching him. He immediately lowered his head and hid away, "I am stupid, I didn't know there was a dog hole in the cold palace that leads to the street market."

Hu Luanfei rolled her eyes and said, "Alright, I'll come back tomorrow."

On the way back to Nuanchun Pavilion, Le Yao was furious. "Why does the Queen always make things difficult for me? She is on guard against me all the time, as if she is afraid that I will seduce her Majesty."

"Young lady, be careful with your words." The eunuch followed behind and reminded her in a low voice: "This is the harem, there are many spies."

Hu Luanfei became more interested. "From what you said, it seems like you don't stand on the same side."

The young eunuch said, "I have received great favors from the Second Prince, and the Princess is also on good terms with the Second Prince. I certainly don't want you to be in any danger and cause the Second Prince to worry."

Hu Luanfei asked, "What did he help you with?"

The young eunuch said shyly, "When I first entered the palace, I was ill and thought I was going to die. Fortunately, the Second Prince passed by and helped me save my life. At that time, I thought that this life was given by the Second Prince, and I must repay him."

It is no wonder why the young eunuch chose to help her. Loving her is also loving the whole family. It is really a great virtue.
