Concubine hates each other

said.

"I pointed out Sun Jiaqi to her, and planned to give her a generous dowry. Isn't it true that I have done my best?" the emperor asked.

Xie Baolin couldn't hear what was said outside. She stared fixedly at the man in black with a scar on his face kneeling in front of the emperor, tears streaming down her face suddenly.

Sensing Xie Baolin's fluctuating emotions, Wang Lingyi raised his hand to touch Xie Baolin's hand holding the lid, signaling her to put it down.

Xie Baolin followed Wang Lingyi's movements almost numbly, and slowly covered the box again.

"You go out first, I want to be quiet." The emperor said.

When the door of the bamboo house was closed, the emperor walked towards the box slowly, and slowly stretched out his hand.

When Wang Lingyi heard his footsteps, he closed his eyes almost immediately.

☆, escape

At this critical moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the door, followed by a panicked sentence: "Your Majesty, there are changes in the south of the Yangtze River!"

The emperor reached out and straightened the red ears hanging on the mahogany box, then looked up at the portrait on the wall, took out a feather duster from the porcelain vase in the corner, swept the portrait lightly, and said softly: "Mother, can you return this room?" Are you used to living? Are you not used to it? I will move you to a new place some other day."

Wang Lingyi felt goose bumps on his skin.

The emperor put the feather duster back in place, took a step back, took another deep look at the portrait, walked to the door without looking back, and opened the door wide.When he met the light outside, he narrowed his eyes a little and said, "Then let's go."

When there seemed to be no movement outside, Wang Lingyi immediately pushed Xie Baolin and said in a low voice, "Let's go?"

"Escape." Xie Baolin tried his best to get out his emotions in the shortest possible time, reacted to the current situation, and corrected him simply and calmly.

Xie Baolin was the first to open the box.After the two stepped out from inside, Xie Baolin fastened the cover and even smoothed out the tassel.There was a little noise outside, and the distance was still far away.

"Come with me." Xie Baolin grabbed Wang Lingyi's hand, quickly walked a few steps to the corner, and let go to move the five-story Duobao Pavilion away.Xie Baolin then squatted down again, pressed the place in his memory, and pushed down a two-foot-square passage.Xie Baolin first pushed Wang Lingyi into the cave, and said, "Go down first."

Before Wang Lingyi could speak, Xie Baolin spoke very quickly: "There's no time, I can finish it when you go down."

Wang Lingyi immediately got in, and then opened some space for Xie Baolin. Xie Baolin followed closely behind. She first reached out to move the Duobao Pavilion to this side, and when it was almost moved, she squatted down and fastened the button again. layer cover.

Xie Baolin's lake green dress was also stained with dirt.

This is not a secret path, at most it is a way to escape from the house.

Wang Lingyi didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or because she didn't move around on a daily basis. At this time, her legs were so weak that she couldn't control her. She forced herself to follow Xie Baolin's pace, and then said: "Thanks, Xie Baolin, does the emperor know that someone is there or does he not know?" ?”

"understood."

As soon as Xie Baolin finished speaking, Wang Lingyi only heard the crackling sound of the bamboo house not far behind him.She turned around involuntarily, but she saw a fire bursting out of the bamboo house, and she didn't know what was painted on the outside of the bamboo house, it was very flammable, and it caught fire at one point.The flame suddenly became hotter and hotter.

Xie Baolin squeezed Wang Lingyi's hand, and said in a calm voice, "I'm afraid he's going to Fengyi Palace."

He Jiang and Rongxi are both gentle and have nothing to say, and He Jiang is too embarrassed to keep finding topics to talk to Rongxi.The two of them strolled around, chatting with each other.

Because He Jiang is a martial arts practitioner, he is very sensitive to the changes around him. When her ears moved, Dang Shi grabbed Rong Xi's hand, pulled her behind the tree, and stretched out his hand to press her mouth, motioning her to keep quiet.Then He Jiang paid attention to the movement outside.

Rongxi felt He Jiang's hand was warm and soft, covering her mouth, and she could smell the faint aroma of He Jiang's hand.Rongxi couldn't help but look away.

The road outside was a main road, but it was always quiet.

Today, there was the sound of the chariot rolling, he closed his lips together, let go of Rongxi, and told her not to move around, while he crouched down behind a tree and hid behind a tree, and finally squatted behind a tree not far from the road. There are still some bushes, and the ginger is still hidden.

She poked her head out a little, and saw that the emperor's chariot was driving aggressively, and there were more courtiers walking briskly in front and behind the chariot.He Jiang's complexion sank slightly, these palace servants were tall and straight, their eyes were downcast, but their steps were uniform, they were obviously Lianjiazi, how could they be real palace servants?May I ask whether the palace people in the harem can compete with these people?

The emperor wanted to conceal their identities, but with so many people, it was obvious that something was wrong.

He Jiang waited until they walked over, ran all the way back to Rongxi's place, and said, "Something is wrong, do you know where the empress and imperial concubine will go to play?"

Rongxi also knew that it might be bad, so her expression turned serious, she shook her head and said, "I don't know."

"Looking at the direction of the emperor, I'm afraid it's going to Fengyi Palace." He Jiang said, "The people in Fengyi Palace know that the queen has seen Zheng Wanyi, right?" Seeing Rongxi nod, He Jiang said again: "Then you Go directly to Zheng Wanyi Palace, I will go find them."

Saying that, He Jiang turned around to leave.

Rongxi caught off guard and grabbed her sleeve.

He Jiang obviously didn't expect it, and Rongxi herself was also a little surprised.Rong Xi let go, and said, "Be careful."

He Jiang smiled: "Okay."

The two split into two groups, Rong Xi took a shortcut to Zheng Wanyi's place, while He Jiang followed the direction Xie Baolin and Wang Lingyi had gone to before.

He Jiang was very anxious, if the two of them went somewhere else, she would not be able to find them even if they broke their legs.She could only be patient, run quickly, and then check her eyes carefully.

Then, she looked up and saw smoke rising in the air not far away.

There's fire ahead!He Jiang's heart skipped a beat, what if the fire started because of the queen and the noble concubine?What if the queen and concubine didn't escape?Thinking of this, He Jiang desperately ran over there, and when he got there, he saw a fairly open area in the woods, a house was almost burned down, and there were a few palace people waiting beside it.

When the fire raged, if there were people in the room, they would definitely run out. Judging by their appearance, there must be no one inside.With their guts, how dare they set fire to the palace?That said, someone must have the right to make them so.In connection with the battle of the emperor just now, He Jiang can almost conclude that the fire was set off by the emperor, and he still has to go to Fengyi Palace now, that is to say, the emperor should be looking for the queen, but he has not found it yet.

There is also a transfer.

Then He Jiang made a bold bet, betting that the empress and concubine already knew about it, then the most likely place for them to go would be Zheng Wanyi's place.

He Jiang immediately left here quietly.

While He Jiang was racing against time, the emperor had already sat in the main hall of Fengyi Palace, the door was closed, and Yan Hua bowed to the ground in the center of the main hall to salute.

"Yan Hua, where's the queen?" the emperor asked gently.

Yan Hua knew something was wrong, but facing the emperor now, couldn't the entire Fengyi Palace still be unable to say a word?So Yan Hua calmed down and said: "If you go back to the emperor, the empress is relieved today and hasn't come back yet."

"Let's relax?" The emperor touched the wrench on his thumb, and suddenly smiled, "Yan Hua, where did the queen go to relax? Is it by myself, or..."

Yan Hua said with a smile: "The empress took Rongxi out, but I don't know where to go."

The emperor's smile suddenly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Where is the queen going, you really don't know?"

Yan Hua's back burst into cold sweat.

"Since you don't know, someone in Fengyi Palace should know about it." The emperor obviously didn't want to waste any more time, "Go outside and ask."

The eunuch in front of the emperor withdrew from the door, and after a while, he said back and forth: "It's with Zheng Wanyi."

"Zheng Wanyi?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then go to Xiu'an Palace."

Even though the emperor didn't give Yan Hua a look before leaving, Yan Hua's face turned pale. After such a long time, is the emperor finally going to tear his face away from the empress?

The emperor's chariot was very fast. When the car stopped outside Xiu'an Palace, the emperor couldn't help pressing the beads on his wrist, then raised his eyes, and bent down to get off the chariot.

The gate of Xiu'an Palace was wide open.

The emperor stepped in.The people in Xiu'an Palace were no different from usual, when they saw the emperor, they hurriedly saluted and said: "May the emperor be blessed with peace of mind."

"Is the queen here?" the emperor asked casually.

The palace man replied: "Go back to the emperor, the empress is here."

The news from the bamboo house was that there was no one inside, and the emperor felt a little regretful.But everything in the bamboo house is in his mind, he knows what is moving and what is not.Someone must have gone to the bamboo house. If they died in the fire, that's all.But if he can escape, that means that person knows the way back from the bamboo house.

The emperor went straight to the main hall, and before he got inside, he heard Xie Baolin say to Zheng Yi in a warm voice: "Why are you so careless?"

"Is the queen here?" The emperor opened the cotton curtain, walked in, and said with a smile.

Xie Baolin stood up from his seat, bowed his head and saluted: "Why is the emperor here?"

The emperor carefully examined Xie Baolin's expression and found that Xie Baolin was as usual.The rose red dress on her made her skin whiter than snow, the emperor said: "Get up."

Zheng Yi looked at everything in front of him in fear, just a moment ago, Xie Baolin had just changed out of his dirty clothes, put on hers, and changed her shoes.The clothes fit well, but the shoes did not.And the next moment, the emperor came.

Obviously, the emperor wanted to arrest Xie Baolin for something today, but Xie Baolin hid him.

Wang Lingyi and He Jiang, who were hiding in the back room, dared not come out.

It was the emperor's gentleness that made Wang Lingyi feel even colder in his heart, trembling all over, she was not a fool.When the emperor knew that someone was inside, the emperor had already decided to set fire to the bamboo house. If there was no way out, wouldn't they be buried in the sea of ​​flames?At that time, the emperor can say whatever he wants, and the Xie Wang family can still find the emperor after further investigation?

However, she also listened to what Xie Baolin added: "It's just this back road, the emperor mentioned it to me at the time."

After several conversations outside, the turmoil gradually calmed down. The emperor never seemed to mobilize people, and Xie Baolin never seemed to run to Zheng Yi's place in embarrassment.But Wang Lingyi gradually understood in his heart that the decline of the aristocratic family had become an inevitable trend, and today's emperor just didn't realize his own ideas.

And Xie Baolin held the stove in his hand, lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, with a three-point coldness and seven-point killing intent.

She will never forget that day when the mountain was covered by heavy snow, the man with the scar on his face did not fluctuate in his eyes, and took Wenshan away with his own hands.

The author has something to say: Chapter 3148.

Thank you for a box of rainwater, preserved eggs and peausone for throwing mines...

The past two days of reading the literature makes me want to take the dog...

☆、Jade Rabbit

Xie Baolin had just gotten up that day, but her drowsiness had dissipated. She was taking a sip of the warm salt water that Rong Xi handed her, and before she could spit it out, she heard a voice outside: "Sister."

Rongxi handed the handkerchief to Xie Baolin, watched her press her mouth, and smiled lightly: "So Shiro is taking a rest today? He is lying again."

"I think I want to go to the Taoist temple with me." Xie Baolin still had the immature look of a girl on his face, at the age of Huaguduo, the water in his eyes was flowing, and his tone of voice was very gentle.

Not long after Xie Baolin finished speaking, Xie Wenshan raised the cotton curtain and walked in with his head down.Xie Wenshan has jumped up now, more than half a head taller than Xie Baolin, he is no longer the little boy who likes to follow behind his sister all day long.Xie Wenshan's long and narrow eyes are dark, with the tails of the eyes slightly raised, with red lips and white teeth, very handsome.

"Have you eaten yet?" Xie Baolin ignored him, just reached into the copper basin, took a handful of warm water and washed his face carefully.

Xie Wenshan smiled, "I'm here to eat with sister."

"I'm full of radishes and greens here, are you cute?" Xie Baolin washed his face, gently pressed the water off his face with a soft face towel, and gave it to Rongxi, Fang said at this moment, "Don't really give it to you. After eating this, I’m going to sue my mother again in a while.”

Xie Wenshan pushed Xie Baolin out the door with a smile, and said as he walked: "That happened when I was a child, don't miss me all the time, but Sister, I heard that someone wanted to mention you to mother a few days ago. thing."

"What's the matter with me?" Xie Baolin didn't care much.

Xie Wenshan said: "Of course it's my elder sister's marriage. Although mother doesn't say anything, she is still anxious."

"This kind of thing always goes with the flow, and you can't force it." Xie Baolin smiled and patted Xie Wenshan on the shoulder, "Wenshan, it has been more than two years, and the emperor is no longer the prince, so it is better to push the emperor earlier Read this with you."

"I think so too. Naturally, the emperor will not always ask someone to accompany him to study. Besides, if my elder sister gets married, I have to support her at home. It's impossible to be in the palace every day." Xie Wenshan obviously followed Xie Wenshan. Pauline agrees.

But when Xie Wenshan said the second half of the sentence, Xie Baolin couldn't help but blushed, and forced himself to calm down: "You are only so old, and you support me, you are very capable."

Xie Wenshan was very proud: "Of course I have some skills. A few days ago, Mr. Lu from Qingshan Academy wanted to accept me as a disciple."

"Mr. Lu has a high moral character and has not accepted students for many years. This is excellent news." Hearing this, Xie Baolin immediately praised Xie Wenshan a few more words, but he still said, "Beware of arrogance and impetuosity, wait You go to Qingshan Academy and study hard with Mr. Lu. I heard that Qingshan Academy is bitterly cold in winter, so I will make some cotton shoes for you later."

Xie asked Shan again and again.

After a quiet meal, it was almost time to set off, Xie Baolin ordered Rongxi and the others to bring all the things, and then the group went to the main courtyard.

Xie Ge looked at the two siblings and laughed: "It's only a day or two, don't move the house there."

"Grandfather, Sister asked someone to bring a lot of things." Xie Wenshan immediately complained.

Xie Baolin glared at him secretly.But Xie Wenshan just pretended not to know.

I heard that this Taoist temple has always had aura, so it has not faded for a hundred years.It's just that there was a lot of snow last night, and the mountain roads were much more difficult to navigate. Xie Wenshan sat in the carriage, opened the curtain and looked out with great interest.

Xie Baolin held a hand warmer in his hand and took a nap with slightly squinted eyes.

"By the way, the foot of the mountain here reminds me. A few days ago, I met that little girl from the Wang family on the official road below a temple." Xie Wenshan said suddenly.

Only then did Xie Baolin open his eyes, and said leisurely: "It's fine, why did she run out?"

"Someone should have brought it with her. When I passed by, she still looked up at me." Xie Wenshan recalled the reaction of the little girl in the video, and smiled again, "Sister, have you seen her?"

Xie Baolin shoved the hand warmer into his hand angrily, and said, "Yes, she even ate the cherries on my table."

"I feel that the girl from the Wang family is very interesting," Xie Wenshan thought for a while, "the eyes are very spiritual."

Xie Baolin couldn't bear to tell this talented Mr. Wenshan that the girl of the Wang family had aura, but now she is 12 years old, and she is still not good at studying.None of the girls in Beijing is like her, who doesn't read poetry and books?

The Taoist temple is sparsely populated today, very deserted.Perhaps it is because in such weather, everyone is more willing to keep warm in a warm room.Xie Baolin went to wash his hands as usual before going to the main hall, lit incense, respectfully inserted it into the incense burner, and ordered Rongxi to offer the clean tribute he brought.

Because it was still normal, Xie Baolin did not bow three times and kowtow nine times.

After incense, Xie Baolin came out of the main hall, wrapped his cloak tightly, looked around, did not see Xie Wenshan, a little strange, asked: "Where is Wenshan? Why don't you see him coming?"

Rongxi smiled and said, "Shiro said he was waiting for you under the tree in the backyard."

Xie Baolin just remembered that before, she coaxed Xie Wenshan to take him to the back mountain to play.Unexpectedly, it snowed heavily yesterday, Xie Baolin thought that Xie Wenshan would not remember this incident, but it turns out that is not the case now.

The emperor reads with him, and now he is still a child at heart.Thinking of this, Xie Baolin couldn't help laughing.

When Xie Baolin walked to the backyard, Xie Wenshan was standing under the tree, with his hands behind his back and his head looking up at the snow-covered branches, wondering what he was thinking.

"Sister," Xie Wenshan heard the footsteps, retracted her thoughts, turned her head to look at Xie Baolin, and said with a smile, "When I came last time, this tree was still very lush."

Xie Baolin also raised her head. The old tree has been through vicissitudes, and now its leaves are all gone, a little bleak, she said: "When you come back next year, the branches and leaves will be lush again."

"It should be." Xie Wenshan walked up to Xie Baolin and tugged on Xie Baolin's sleeve, "Sister, you can't let it go to the back mountain as agreed."

Xie Baolin never rejected Xie Wenshan.

She thought that Xie Wenshan was also good at martial arts, so she took Xie Wenshan with her.

As soon as he arrived at a level ground, Xie Wenshan thought about Xie Baolin and asked her to sit down and rest.She herself had to secretly hunt a rabbit to roast and eat.Xie Baolin hesitated to dissuade him, Xie Wenshan smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay."

Xie Baolin's eyelids suddenly jumped twice.

After waiting for a while, when Xie Baolin was feeling uneasy, Xie Wenshan came back briskly with a rabbit in his hand.

"Sister!" Xie Wenshan walked towards her with a smile.

Xie Baolin couldn't help but feel relaxed, just stood up to meet him, but Xie Wenshan suddenly stopped moving.Xie Baolin's breathing was stagnant, and she saw an arrow sticking out of Xie Wenshan's right shoulder, and the blood on the arrowhead dripped to the ground after a while.

Xie Baolin's eyes darkened, and he immediately ran over and hugged Xie Wenshan: "Qianshan!"

"Sister..." Xie Wenshan's expression was a bit incredulous, he suddenly smiled at Xie Baolin, "Sister, what kind of person will you marry?"

Xie Baolin supported him, but his eyes were fixed on the six or seven fierce people, the leader had a scar on his face.

"Grab him." The man with the scar said indifferently.

Xie Wenshan pushed Xie Baolin away and picked up a branch from the ground.

But to no avail, the six arrows aimed at Xie Wenshan.The man with the scar said: "Young Master Xie, please come with us, the brothers are just living a difficult life, so let me borrow it from Young Master Xie."

"I have money, how much do you want?" Xie Baolin stood in front of Xie Wenshan, with a resolute expression, and asked in a deep voice, "How much?"

"I'm sorry, brothers never make things difficult for women." The scarred man dismissed Xie Baolin lightly.

What effect can two people face against seven people?Xie Baolin was pulled aside and watched helplessly as Xie Wenshan left the place following the scarred man.

When Xie Wenshan turned his head, he even compared his mouth to her, what is it?

Xie Baolin couldn't react, did he mean "run away"?

However, Xie Baolin's mouth and nose were covered by someone, and she immediately lost consciousness.When she woke up again, she sat up blankly and checked her surroundings. Obviously, the horse thief took her away from the mountain to prevent her from asking for help from the Taoist temple.Horse thieves are a problem, but even in the Acropolis of the capital, they dare to be so arrogant.

This year's snow was very heavy, the snow was as deep as a foot, Xie Baolin didn't take a few steps, his trouser legs were already soaked, he was shivering from the cold at first, and then he became so bone-piercing that he didn't feel any sense and didn't know how tired he was.

She walked step by step in the snow-capped mountains, looking for and leaving marks as she walked.

The trees in the mountain forest were towering, and the clouds covered the sun. She could no longer shed tears. She stopped and looked at the sky.Occasionally, a bird that did not migrate gave a sharp cry and circled into the sky.Xie Baolin was cold all over, she didn't dare to stop to rest, for fear that she would never be able to stand up again after sitting down.

Taking advantage of the snow and footprints, she tried her best to find them.

Finally, in the middle of the night, she stood in the woods in front of the horse thief's village.The village was brightly lit, and the sounds were very lively, as if they were celebrating something.

The guards at the gate of the stockade were very energetic, and no one came out from inside. Xie Baolin was anxious, so he wanted to go around the back of the stockade.Walking along the perimeter, Xie Baolin's nose, which was so cold that he couldn't smell it, suddenly smelled a stink.

Xie Baolin immediately got closer, and finally confirmed that this is the latrine of the village. At this moment, the two chatted when they relieved their hands: "Second brother is so capable, he also captured Xie Wenshan. The Xie family gave it to him. That money is enough for us to eat and drink spicy food!"

"Isn't Xie Wenshan the eyeball of the Xie family? It's so rare."

It should be the horse thief who sent the letter, and then the Xie family gave the money.So what about Shan?At this time, Xie Baolin slowly felt the chill on the soles of his feet.

"Would the Xie family be happy if we don't return Xie Wenshan?"

"What are you afraid of? He eats and drinks well, and treats his injuries. It's good enough."

Xie Wenshan is still here.Xie Baolin's heart rose again.

Although this place is a cottage, it is heavily guarded, and Xie Baolin can't get in, so Xie Baolin went down the mountain overnight. It was not until nearly dawn that she stopped a donkey cart in embarrassment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Trouble, go to the capital." Thank you family."

The uncle was a little scared, but he still pulled her away from here.

Until noon, Xie Baolin stood at the door of Xie's house again, and knocked on the door knocker heavily: "Open the door!"

She went straight to her grandfather's study. At this time, the main members of the Xie family were discussing the matter of rescuing Xie Wenshan, and suddenly she was startled by Xie Baolin who directly pushed the door in.

"Wenshan is in Mengshan's cottage," Xie Baolin never shed a tear, "I can lead the way."

When the emperor heard about this, he immediately dispatched a group of elite soldiers to Xie's family.Father Xie rushed to Mount Meng with his soldiers that night and lurked up there.In order to prevent horse thieves from knowing about this and killing Xie Wenshan in a hurry, Xie's father first sent a few people who were good at hiding to scout the way.

Xie Baolin was guarded at home, and she knew nothing about Mengshan.

She fell into a coma for two days until she woke up with a dizzy head and unbearable pain.She asked hoarsely, "Rongxi."

Rongxi came in with her head down, her eyes were red, but she pretended to be nonchalant in her tone, and replied, "Miss."

"Ask Shan Shan..." Xie Baolin asked.

Rongxi burst into tears immediately.

Xie Baolin's heart suddenly died, she couldn't feel any emotion, she stood up numbly, and said, "It's gone?"

"Yes……"

Xie Baolin nodded: "Understood."

Xie Wenshan died before Xie's father took people to the cottage that day. Xie's father flattened the cottage angrily, killed all the horse thieves, and burned down the cottage.

Because Xie Wenshan died unexpectedly, Xie Wenshan's body was stored in the coffin, so the coffin was directly covered.

The funeral of Xie's family was never done in a big way, after this incident, Xie's family was very depressed and closed their doors without seeing visitors for more than a month.It was not until the emperor repeatedly asked Mr. Xie Ge to return to the court that Mr. Xie Ge returned to the court.

Three months later, the emperor issued an order to seal Xie Baolin as queen, and the queen who had been vacant for several years finally fell to Xie's family.

Amidst the congratulations of others, the sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums that day, Xie Baolin covered her red hijab and stepped into the chariot ordered by the queen. She sat firmly in the chariot, clutching the jade carving that Xie Wenshan gave her rabbit.

The chariot moved slowly.

Xie Baolin lowered his eyes, his eyes were indifferent, and his face was as cold as ice.From then on, the palace was deep and the walls were high.

After all the chariots and guards of honor left slowly, the crowd slowly dispersed. Xie Zhen was about to return to Xie's house. He turned his head and looked at the little jade rabbit on the stone lion table at the door. Steps, into the Xie family compound.

The author has something to say: I have wanted to write this chapter for a long time... um.

This is a memory, but I don’t think it’s good to post a side story (mainly because I can’t help but want to write this)

Thank you girls for mine, I will give you a cute shoulder squeeze

☆、Xie Zhu

Jiangnan has changed, but this "change" can no longer be suppressed casually.After the gate of the Tongxian government was kicked open, the magistrate of Tongxian County immediately sent people out through the back door and reported the news all the way south to Xiangzhou.Perhaps the stagnant water was suddenly poked out by someone, and the water began to surge up and down, just like the Jiangbai levee that broke the embankment at the beginning, and all parts of the south of the Yangtze River responded one after another. Therefore, the governments all over the south of the Yangtze River could not sit still, and the suppression was fruitless, and they rushed to Xiangzhou report.

Letters reported to Xiangzhou from all over the country were remitted to the state capital of Xiangzhou, but these letters were lightly pressed down there by a plain white hand.

King Liang was almost at the age when he knew the destiny, and now he doesn't hear out the window, and only plays with birds and flowers every day, which is very comfortable.King Liang walked in the flower room with his hands behind his back, looking relaxed, obviously very satisfied with these carefully cultivated flowers.He sat on the soft stool in the middle of the greenhouse, took off the wrench and played with it in his hand.

Not long after, the door of the flower room opened, and a corner of the cotton curtain was lifted by a slender hand, and a tall figure walked in from the door. At first glance, he looked like a handsome young man. The outline is not very cold and hard.

The person walked gracefully and calmly, and when he reached the center of the greenhouse, the person said: "Uncle."

"Jing Wen." Liang Wang smiled when he saw the person coming.

But Mingde saluted and said: "Uncle, my niece is bothering you when I visit you this time, but the time is limited. In a few days, my niece will return to Beijing."

King Liang said: "Then I won't keep you either, so I'll bring Jing Huan some presents back."

"Auntie has ordered someone to prepare it." Mingde nodded and smiled. Although he stood with his head bowed and refused to take a seat, his back was still straight.After a while, she said again: "The capital city is much more lively during Chinese New Year, why don't uncle and niece go back together."

"I haven't seen New Year's Eve in the capital for many years." Liang Wang sighed, and he put on his finger puller again.

Mingde smiled: "Auntie hasn't visited Xie's house for many years."

King Liang raised his eyes and stared at Mingde steadfastly.I saw that her face was peaceful, she couldn't see any ambition or anything else, but because of this, Liang Wang said: "Jing Huan will rely on your support on this journey."

"Jing Huan is the younger brother." Mingde faced Liang Wang's temptation calmly, "Since this is the case, these are what I should do."

Ming De's words were quite satisfactory, but Liang Wang suddenly closed his eyes: "Then let's go back."

Matilda should be.

Before the city gate was locked that evening, Mingde changed to another carriage and went out from the north gate in a leisurely manner.

After she finally rushed back to the capital, she first went to the small courtyard near Wang's house to rest.She had just washed up a bit and was about to take a nap when she heard the guard outside the bedroom door whisper: "Master, please see me with Jiang."

"He Jiang?" Mingde frowned, and said immediately, "Let her in."

Mingde sat up, walked to the clothes rack, reached out and took off a coat and put it on, walked to the outside room, and sat on the stool beside the round table.Then she lazily supported her chin with her left hand, and cast her eyes casually at the door.

"Master, He Jiang is here." The guard's voice sounded again.

Mingde let out a "hmm".

The door opened slowly, He Jiang outside the door lowered his brows, but his eyes did not fluctuate. He stepped in and saluted, "Princess."

"You have stayed with Wang Lingyi, why are you here?" Mingde asked indifferently.

"The servants are only here to deliver the letter." He Jiang said.

Mingde raised his eyes slightly, and the slender eyelashes cast some faint shadows under his eyes.She stretched out her hand to straighten the teacup, touched the edge of the teacup with her fingers, and said softly, "Send the letter? Whose letter? Is it Wang Lingyi's or... Xie Baolin's?"

"Princess, the empress wants to see you." He Jiang lowered his eyes.

Mingde picked up the teacup, threw it on the ground unexpectedly, and said in a cold voice, "I let you go because I want you to follow Wang Lingyi, not because I want you to join Xie Baolin."

He Jiang was silent, facing her former master, she couldn't say anything, everything was wrong.

"Don't talk?" Mingde didn't know why an unknown fire came up in his heart.He Jiang is like this, is it possible that Wang Lingyi doesn't know?Wang Lingyi must have agreed to this matter.She and Xie Baolin are so good?

She got up suddenly, stretched out her hand to pinch He Jiang's neck, and said in a deep voice, "Who told you to come? Xie Baolin, or Wang Lingyi?"

He Jiang was pinched until he couldn't breathe, but he still continued intermittently: "Princess, it's really unwise to be obsessed with this."

"Say." Mingde's eyes became colder.

Then He Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "It's... the imperial concubine."

Hearing this sentence, Mingde's hand seemed to lose strength immediately. She let go of her hand and turned her back to He Jiang. Hearing He Jiang's suppressed cough behind her, she finally said slowly: "Time, place."

"At this time, here." He Jiang said.

Mingde raised his eyebrows, turned around, and said, "The queen is here?"

He Jiang nodded.

"She is quite courageous." Mingde said, "Please come in, Empress Empress."

Before she could finish her sentence, a person in eunuch uniform walked in calmly outside the door.

Mingde didn't need to look to know that this person was Xie Baolin.

"Empress Empress, please stay safe." Mingde said with a smile.

Xie Baolin also smiled slightly: "Princess, you are polite. I have never seen the princess since I was grounded."

Mingde didn't care about these words, she raised her hand, wanting He Jiang to leave the door, but He Jiang didn't move.He Jiang didn't go out until Xie Baolin ordered, and closed the door gently.

"She listens to you." Mingde said.

Xie Baolin smiled: "It's not listening to me." The implication was to listen to Wang Lingyi.

Mingde decided not to entangle Xie Baolin on this topic, and said, "How does the Empress know that I am coming back today?"

"Princess, it is said that you have been ill in bed for such a long time, so you should be fine." Xie Baolin didn't answer her question directly. Thinking of what she was going to talk about today, her eyes gradually turned cold: "I don't know, Princess Can you still count what you said?"

Mingde pointed to the soft stool and said with a smile, "It's better to sit down and talk."

When Xie Baolin sat down, Mingde said: "It seems that the Empress understands everything."

"In the case of Xie Zhen, after all, it is the emperor who wants to support the Yuan family." Xie Baolin didn't say anything about Xie Wenshan, she settled down, and said, "The emperor is in power, and he doesn't have his own power. For the sake of these upstarts, he It was too hasty to act."

Mingde asked: "Then what is your plan?"

Xie Baolin smiled suddenly.In the candlelight, her eyes became clearer and clearer. She originally looked gentle and generous, but with that smile, she looked more like a poisoned femme fatale.

"I think the princess is an excellent candidate."

Master Shi tripped over the threshold when he went to court today, and he felt a little uneasy, until he saw King Qin standing respectfully at the front of the line, his eyelids finally twitched.

King Qin was lifted today?

He couldn't allow him to think too much, the emperor had already sat on the dragon chair.Everyone withdrew their thoughts, held wat boards, and saluted together.

"Get up." The emperor's face couldn't hide his exhaustion, and his voice became a little hoarse.

Everyone has heard about the Jiangnan incident, but they don't know what the emperor is thinking, so everyone is watching, and no one is willing to speak first.

"The riot in the south of the Yangtze River." The emperor said coldly, "Which one has never heard of it?"

Everyone is silent.

The emperor immediately said: "It seems that we all know it. The cause of this incident was the collapse of the Jiangbai embankment, and none of the money allocated by the court for disaster relief went into the pockets of the victims. Jiangnan has always been rich, and I never thought about it." , this happened in such a rich place. Perhaps after a hundred years, I will have no face to face my ancestors because of this incident!"

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

The emperor lost his temper, and everyone could no longer remain silent.So one person stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, you have to be greedy for disaster relief money. It must not be once or twice."

"Oh?" said the emperor.

The man continued: "Such a big matter, who must be responsible, think about Jiangnan, it seems... Liang Wang..."

"Presumptuous! Uncle Huang is something you can criticize." The emperor angrily reprimanded this person, and then said: "King Liang has not committed any misconduct for more than ten years in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that this happened, you will think King Liang, what is your intention?"

These words are very serious.

The man hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground, and argued: "That's not the case. It's really that the riots in the south of the Yangtze River have become small. If it wasn't for someone's indulgence, how could they not have reported it to the court at the beginning? Delaying the report will really delay the court's timing!"

"you
