A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Qi Wenyan also directly led his horse to meet him.

The fearless Her Royal Highness naturally went straight, and took the lead in asking: "Are you waiting for me?"

Qi Wenyan looked at her fine attire, and then stroked the horse's mane, "Are you going to go home directly? Let's go all the way, let's go together."

Yun Cheng actually didn't have the habit of riding in a carriage, let alone such a gorgeous chariot that ostentatiously passed through the market. It was just to cooperate with the ceremony, and the clothes she was wearing today were inconvenient, so it was difficult for her to do so.

"Then wait for me." Hearing this, she raised her skirt again, turned around and returned to the chariot.

Quickly took off the heavily embroidered tunic with a trailing tail, and casually took off a few hair accessories that she thought were cumbersome. After a while, she got off the car again and stood in front of Qi Wenyan.

Qi Wenyan's original plan was just to follow the trend and be a flower protector for her, but he didn't expect that the little princess would still be as unpretentious as before, and act vigorously and resolutely.

While being dazed, he raised the corners of his lips slightly, and handed her the reins in his hand.

Yun Cheng got on his horse neatly, and then he remembered something, condescendingly said to the little Miaozi, who was guarding at the side of the chariot, who was a little at a loss: "Pack up the clothes on the chariot and send them back to the mother's harem for a while. I don't need you to send them to the palace." , I’ll go back by myself.”

How dare the little Miaozi have any objections to this little ancestor?Hurry up and humbly promise.

Feng Lin was also very discerning, seeing that his master lost his mount, he quickly gave up his horse.

After Yun Cheng finished giving orders, Qi Wenyan was already sitting on the horse and waiting for her when she looked away again.

The two looked at each other and smiled, then turned their horses' heads tacitly and walked away together.

When passing by Ye Xunyi's carriage, he was not interested in looking at her at all, but Ye Xunyi in the carriage was filled with mixed feelings, holding the curtains with his hands, and the fabric was clenched into a ball, his expression was even more uncontrollable ferocious.

The two maidservants who accompanied her obviously found that she was not in the right state, but they only thought that she was suffering from pain and pain, so they could only guard by the side tremblingly, and could do nothing.

In the palace at that time.

In Yonghe Palace, Concubine Sheng Xian closed the palace door, and only brought her two confidantes, Lian Yu and Sang Yan, by her side.

Before speaking, she took out the bag of things that Qi Huan left behind from the locked cabinet in the dormitory and gave it to Lian Yu: "Be careful with this, don't go to the Tai Hospital, go out of the palace to find a remote medical center and ask the doctor to give it to you." Find out what it does."

The package of medicine Qi Huan gave her was obviously not a good thing, but it was definitely not fatal.

After all, she is the concubine who gave birth to a prince for the emperor, and she has a strong family background as the backing. No matter how ignorant Qi Huan is, he will not be so bold as to openly send medicine to poison her.

After Qi Huan left, she checked it carefully, and there was no note left in it, nor did she explain its effect.

think about-

Qi Huan also guessed that even if she left a note to indicate the utility, she would not import such things sent by people who are enemies but not friends. She must have someone check it herself before she can rest assured.

Lian Yu accompanied Ye Xunyi to the Leng Palace before, and he didn't know what happened in the morning, but he opened the cabinet when he was dressing his master's clothes in the morning, but he didn't see this bag, so he felt strange: "Ma'am, this is... where is it?" here?"

"Don't ask, just go and come back, and get things done first." Concubine Sheng Xian urged, and once again instructed, "Be careful and avoid people."

"Understood." Lian Yu hurriedly agreed, went to find a piece of clean rice paper, carefully took out a little medicine powder, rewrapped the original bag and put it away, then put on the small paper bag and went first.

As soon as she left, Concubine Sheng Xian lay down on the imperial concubine's couch with a little worry, looking exhausted.

Sang Yan hastily went around, and knelt down to help her massage her temples to relieve fatigue: "Madam, do you want to sleep first to refresh yourself?"

"Can't sleep." Concubine Sheng Xian was restless, and then suddenly opened her eyes to look at her: "I told you to ask Steward Liu about the matter?"

When Sang Yan came back from a trip outside the palace gate, there was already a banquet in Fengming Palace, and Ye Xunyi sat at the table with Concubine Sheng Xian, so she didn't say anything.

Hearing this, Sang Yan's expression was obviously embarrassing at first, and out of embarrassment, she even instinctively avoided her gaze.

Concubine Sheng Xian saw it in her eyes, and her heart skipped a beat at that moment, she already knew it.

She lay back on the couch as if her whole body was exhausted, and muttered to herself: "Is it... all true?"

The matter of Ye Xunyi was really difficult for Sang Yan, who is a woman, to talk about it, so she simply avoided talking about it, and continued to press the head of Concubine Sheng Xian while softly saying: "According to Liu Steward, The relationship between the prince and Mrs. Ye is not close, especially... Especially after that incident, during the first month or so since she was confinement, the two of them didn't even communicate with each other, and they didn't even see each other. Later, it was until Mrs. Ye took the initiative Make a plan and discuss with the prince about how to deal with Su Taifu, and then start walking again."

If these are two unrelated people, this way of getting along is nothing, but they live under the same roof, and they are husband and concubine...

It's okay for Yun Zheng to be indifferent to Ye Xunyi, but Ye Xunyi is also indifferent to him, which is very problematic.

"It seems...that girl from the Qi family is telling the truth." Concubine Sheng Xian only felt terrified, thinking of Ye Xunyi's recent pretense of being close to her, she felt a chill run down her spine The bone slowly climbed up.

That chill made her heart constrict even more.

Although Sang Yan found it unbelievable, she still told the truth: "So Steward Liu said that Mrs. Ye wanted to come to see you after the lord's accident. He was originally suspicious and didn't want to contact you, but he watched her point out the affairs of the back house. , She really did her best, and she is a woman, the prince is her only reliance, and Steward Liu also felt that she could not have two intentions, so he helped to deal with it."

Although there was some logic in what Ye Xunyi did, the hype she said did not stand up to scrutiny.

Everyone thinks that marrying a chicken is like a chicken and marrying a dog like a dog. Since she has already entered Prince Ning's Mansion, there is no other way except to wholeheartedly hope for Yunzheng's well-being. It belongs to Prince Ning's Mansion, but if you don't use common sense to deduce it, and then look at her various actions...

That's just nonsense, it's too weird!

Especially what Qi Huan said——

The emperor gave her a guarantee in golden words, and she was determined not to give her a lifetime of prosperity, wealth, and a stable life?A woman, even if she follows Yunzheng, Yunzheng will finally ascend to the sky, but she is not innocent anymore. It's all about peace and wealth.

She didn't even want what was given to her at her fingertips. She couldn't work so hard for this in the end, right?
If not, then it really can only mean that she is a wolf with ambition, and her plans are huge!
And if her intentions were not on Yun Zheng at all, then now——

Concubine Sheng Xian sat up abruptly, only feeling palpitations.

Don't they unknowingly, their mother and son have been roasted on the fire by that woman?

"Your Majesty!" Seeing this, Sang Yan hastily crawled over to help her, "You don't look well, do you want to send an imperial physician over to take a look?"

Concubine Sheng Xian tried her best to calm herself down, but she still felt panic in her heart, she blocked her hand, but her voice trembled uncontrollably: "I'm fine, I'll close my eyes for a while, you go outside the hall and stare, Lian Yu Tell her to come see me as soon as you get back."

Because her body was very strong in the past, Sang Yan observed carefully and thought that there should be no major problems with her, so she obediently retreated outside the bedroom.

Concubine Sheng Xian sat alone on the couch, going through the paths she and Yun Zheng had traveled in these years in her mind one by one.

In fact, at the beginning, because the emperor's son born to the former empress died early, she had really thought about it because of the prince Yunzheng. It took up a long word, but after waiting for a few years, the emperor who expressed his hints did not move his mind on this aspect at all. Later, Empress Gu entered the palace and gave birth to a pair of children at the end of the year. After the crown prince was established, she really cut off her hopes and thoughts.

Later, this kind of ambition revived because it was discovered that Yun Heng, a lowly born little beast, actually had the heart to touch the throne.

Both their mother and son suddenly became unwilling. If even Yun Heng had the hope of obtaining this supreme position, why did their mother and son quit directly?

In terms of background, background, connections and even the favor of the emperor, although they are not comparable to Yun Zhan, they are more than enough than Yun Heng...

At that time, it couldn't be said that they were just following the trend, or they really had a resentful and unwilling ambition. In short, in the following years, their mother and son devoted themselves wholeheartedly to this great cause of seizing the heir.

Anyway, all the time, everyone has been intrigued and plotted against each other, and gradually got used to it.

But at this moment, when the road ahead was unknown and the danger was approaching, Concubine Sheng Xian began to feel the real threat and panic from the bottom of her heart.

Previously, the thought in her mind was——

Others are robbing her, so why should her son withdraw voluntarily?
But now, if she directly told her that this supreme position would have to bet on her son's life in exchange, she would have thought of quitting right away.

To put it bluntly, it was because the court and harem had been stable for so many years, and they were used to living a good life. They had never felt a crisis before, so they dared to unscrupulously get involved in the intrigue.

Yun Zheng is now in the Imperial Mausoleum, and Concubine Sheng Xian even starts to fidget at this moment, worried that something bad will happen to her son at any time in that ghostly place.

after all--

At the beginning of the year, Prince Yun Zhan almost encountered an accident under the tighter guard than he is now!
Concubine Sheng Xian almost waited for nearly two hours before she hoped for Lian Yu to come back.

Sang Yan came in to light the lamp in person, and the three master and servant closed the palace door and whispered for a while.

In the long night that followed, Concubine Sheng Xian tossed and turned forcibly survived.

On the other side, in the courtyard of Pingkangfang.

Although Qi Wenyan and Yun Cheng came back together at noon, they also went back to their respective homes after returning home without interfering with each other.

Qi Wenyan is restless, and spends the afternoon in the study dealing with matters.

Yun Cheng got up early in the morning, and he had a rare day off work, so he got a good night's sleep in the afternoon.

When I opened my eyes again, I found that it was already dusk.

After waking up from this sleep, she was in good spirits. She got up and washed her face, and found that it was not time for dinner, so she walked to the back garden for a stroll.

As we walked, we went to the gazebo on the rockery.

The wind in winter was cool, even though she was wrapped in a thick fur coat, after standing on a high place for a while, her little face turned a little red from the cold.

Just as she was about to go back, she saw Qi Wenyan walking towards here in the yard on the other side, and she stopped in her tracks again.

Qi Wenyan must have come here on purpose when he saw her, so he looked calm, but his steps were extremely fast. Not long after his figure disappeared under the shadow of the courtyard wall, he had already climbed up the steps and entered the pavilion .

Well, originally the steps at the entrance of the gazebo were only on Yuncheng's side, but after Qi Wenyan climbed up the eaves and walls a few times to enjoy the scenery, he shamelessly asked someone to build a stone step from his courtyard.

Yun Cheng's consent was not sought in advance.

It's just that he is very well-behaved, even if steps are built, he only occasionally climbs up to enjoy the scenery, and never uses this way to go to the opposite yard.

Yun Cheng wondered if there were such steps anyway, even a mere rockery courtyard wall couldn't stop him, so he didn't bother with him, and acquiesced with turning a blind eye.

"It's cold, what are you doing standing here?" He stood beside Yun Cheng and asked casually.

Even though the relationship between the two of them has changed since today, he is still indifferent and self-reliant, holding his own and never making any moves.

Is it just—

Standing, but obviously a little closer than usual.

Standing side by side, the sleeves of the two were blown together by the wind.

Yun Cheng folded his hands in his sleeves to keep warm, looked sideways at him, and asked, "Are you asking me to have dinner? Then just call me, what are you doing here?"

"I've been thinking about something all afternoon, and I want to tell you." Qi Wenyan also turned his head.

The two looked at each other, and his expression was particularly solemn, which made Yun Cheng feel inexplicably nervous.

She frowned slightly, and even tilted her neck back suspiciously and warily.

Qi Wenyan, however, still looked like an upright ice cube man, and discussed with her with a serious look: "As for what you said during the day that you don't like men to eat soft food and wait for you to raise them, I will think about it afterward, and I think it may be difficult for me to fully implement it. "

Given that his expression was too serious and cautious, Yun Cheng didn't know how to react, but the corner of his mouth twitched, and he said in a muffled voice, "What?"

Qi Wenyan said: "It's mainly about age. Unless I can survive to seventy and become an official, I can continue to be supported by the court in the future. Otherwise, if I retire early and return to the countryside... I will have to eat a few years of service from Your Highness the Princess." silvery."

Yun Cheng: ...

Qi Wenyan's expression was extremely serious: "Then when the time comes, will you support me or not?"

The two of them are not the kind of people who love to make jokes, let alone what Qi Wenyan said...

He obviously wanted to talk about life with others, talk about Fengyue, talk about the love story of growing old together, but he made it like this——

It's a clear routine, little girl!

Just because Yun Cheng didn't pay attention to the relationship between men and women before, it doesn't mean she doesn't understand these things.

The emotion on her face that had been tense for a long time was finally broken, and she burst out laughing directly.

The teenage girl, who is the same age as a flower, laughs so unscrupulously, especially looking full of vitality, bright and beautiful.

On Qi Wenyan's calm face, a soft smile slowly crept up in his eyes.

After Yun Cheng laughed, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, put his hands on the railing, jumped out of the pavilion, and landed lightly under the rockery, in the courtyard beside Qi Wenyan.

Qi Wenyan still stood with his hands behind his back, standing in the pavilion, but turned his head, and continued to look down at her with a serious expression.

In that way, she must give a clear answer: "These things should be agreed in advance to avoid disputes in the future. You already think that I am older and unpleasant, if in the future I am old and discolored But when I need your offering to support me, I’m afraid I’ll dislike it even more. If it really comes to that time, will you support me or not?”

The smile that Yun Cheng had held back just now came up again, and laughed again from below.

"I don't raise it!" Indeed, she was amused, the girl waved her hand, turned around, walked forward lightly, walked a few steps and then looked back, seeing the man still standing in the high gazebo and refusing to move, she said again: "When you reach that age, you have your own children to take care of, why should you let me take care of them? I won't take care of the old man!"

After finishing speaking, he turned ruthlessly again and strode away.

The corner of Qi Wenyan's lips finally burst into a blatant smile, he tapped his toes, and flew out of the gazebo.

He had indeed deceived a little girl with scheming, because he was ashamed of himself, so he was ashamed to say some greasy love words and promises bluntly.

Is it just—

Since you have lied to someone, you have to be responsible to them for life, but those promises must be made in person, and there must be a sense of ritual!
The two went to the dining room one after the other, where the fat cook and two maidservants were busy preparing meals.

Both of them were in a good mood, but in a tacit understanding, neither of them brought up the topic discussed in the gazebo just now, and just sat down to eat.

Qi Wenyan just rolled up his sleeves to prepare the soup, when outside the dining room, he saw the maidservant from Yun Cheng's family running over, and said in a panic: "Your Highness, Eunuch Jia just came to deliver a message, saying that His Majesty is ill, and the Empress told you to return to the palace to serve. "
