Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 200
When Ji Shuyu came out of Tianxiang Pavilion, he no longer had the previous sense of defeat, and he suddenly became enlightened, and he regained his former youthful spirit.

Pei Ce walked slowly beside him, looked at the bustling crowd, and asked, "Are you really thinking about it?"

"Well," Ji Shuyu's eyes were firm, "It turns out that I was hesitant because I was not sure of the answer. I just heard what Princess Jing said, and I have a decision in my heart."

Pei Ce felt that things were not that simple, and he couldn't bear to extinguish Ji Shuyu's hope, so he patted him on the shoulder heavily, "Since you have already made a decision, I will support you."

Ji Shuyu glanced at him gratefully: "Huanzhi, thank you for being with me these few days."

The young man raised his eyebrows, and said in a brisk tone, "If you really want to thank you, you might as well take out the altar of Qianrichun that your father treasured."

"it is good!"

He agreed so readily, which made Pei Ce a little uncomfortable.Ji Shuyu was eager to return home, and after saying goodbye to Pei Ce, he turned around and got into the carriage of the General's Mansion.

Pei Ce watched him leave, then turned to look at Mu Xiaoxiao, only to find that she and Ling Youyao were talking, so he didn't stay any longer, and took Hefeng to the other side of the long street.

At this time, inside the Tianxiang Pavilion.

Ling Youyao stood by the railing, her gaze fell on the purple figure in the crowd, and she said to Mu Xiaoxiao, "Mr. Pei cares about you very much."

Mu Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Young Master and I have known each other in the early years, and I have been able to gain a firm foothold in the capital all these years thanks to the help of Young Master. I didn't tell you about our relationship because I was worried that you would still remember it." The previous rumor."

"Speaking seriously of that matter, Mr. Pei is also a victim."

The corners of Mu Xiaoxiao's lips curved slightly, and she gave a gentle smile, and said, "Although the rumors are false, the paintings are true."

On that day, Pei Ce lost his taste after drinking alcohol. Although he did not admit it, Mu Xiaoxiao knew that the young man in front of him was no longer the person he used to be.

Ling Youyao looked at Mu Xiaoxiao quietly, unable to imagine what kind of mood she was in at this moment.She had seen that painting before, but she never thought that it was actually made by Pei Ce.

"Miss Mu" she called Mu Xiaoxiao lightly, but she didn't know how to continue.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her with a sideways smile and said, "Princess, please call me Xiaoxiao, even for the sake of our life-and-death friendship."

Ling Youyao smiled slightly: "Okay."

Regarding the painting, the two of them tacitly chose to avoid it. After all, Fu Mingjue had burned the painting completely, and now there is no second one.

Ling Youyao and Mu Xiaoxiao parted ways in Tianxiang Pavilion, and got on the carriage back home.

It started snowing outside again, Yinzhu handed the stove to her, closed the window, and said: "Princess, are you sure about what you promised to Young Master Ji just now?"

Ling Youyao hugged the hand stove and said leisurely: "Of course I'm sure."

"But the Empress Dowager has already summoned Yu Guogong, I'm afraid this marriage will not be changed." It's almost the end of the new year, in her opinion, the Empress Dowager will definitely make a final decision on this matter before New Year's Eve.

Ling Youyao said confidently: "Don't worry, I never do anything I'm not sure about."

Seeing her like this, Yinzhu became curious again: "Have you already thought of a way to dispel the idea of ​​marrying the Empress Dowager?"

"No."

"." Yinzhu twitched the corners of his mouth, "Then you just spoke to Mr. Ji so swearingly just now, but this slave girl sees that Mr. Ji has listened to your words, and his whole body is refreshed. If he knows that you are lying to him Yes, it is estimated that they will come to the door with a knife in hand."

Ling Youyao blinked in confusion: "When did I say I lied to him?"

"Then what do you mean?"

Ling Youyao smiled: "Ji Shuyu doesn't want to marry, and Su Lingxi doesn't necessarily want to marry either."

Hearing this, Yinzhu became even more confused, and she continued: "Su Lingxi is arrogant and arrogant. At the beginning, it was just an expedient measure to choose Ji Shuyu. Now that Yuan Yuxuan has left, she has no more threats. How could you be willing to marry the son of a general?"

What's more, the person Su Lingxi wants to marry has always been Fu Mingjue
Ling Youyao didn't say the latter sentence, as long as she knows some things, it's fine.

After hearing these words, Yin Zhu thought deeply, "But if it was just to avoid the Second Prince of Beidi, why did she choose Young Master Ji?"

Ling Youyao said: "Because Su Lingxi knows that Fu Ya and I have a good relationship, and also knows that the two of them are interested in each other, so they want to get in the way and plot against me."

How could a person like Su Lingxi, who is used to hiding in the dark and peeping at others and not seeing good things in others, let go of such a good opportunity?Originally thought that Yuan Yuxuan was only holding grudges when he was attacked last time, but he didn't expect that Su Lingxi was involved in it.

Thinking of this, Ling Youyao's eyes sank.

Su Lingxi provoked again and again, if she didn't fight back, she would really think she was weak and could be bullied.

Yinzhu pursed her lips and said, "Wangfei, what are you going to do next?"

"Since the Empress Dowager intends to bestow a marriage, we might as well facilitate this marriage." Ling Youyao looked at the snow gradually getting heavier outside the car window, with a smile on her lips, "Su Ling must be the person who wants the Empress Dowager to cancel the marriage the most. Let's go."

Yinzhu looked at her eyes that were gradually deepening, and the figure of Fu Mingjue inexplicably appeared in her mind.

After a while, the carriage stopped firmly in front of the palace.

As soon as he got out of the car, Jiang Liu came over holding an umbrella and said, "Princess, the reply letter from the lord has arrived."

Ling Youyao was surprised: "So fast?" Only two days have passed since she wrote the letter.

Jiang Liu took out the envelope from his bosom and handed it to her, "From the capital city to the northern border, one day and one night is enough, but the recent heavy snow has delayed some time."

"It's not urgent, let them be more careful." Ling Youyao walked in with her skirt in her hand, eager to open the letter and read it.

"Thank you, princess, for your concern, and my subordinates will pass it on."

"By the way," Ling Youyao asked again, "Did the prince say when he will return to Beijing?" Today is the twenty-third of the twelfth lunar month, and there are only a few days left until New Year's Eve.

Jiang Liu: "My lord has already sent the second prince of Beidi out of Dayan, but His Majesty ordered him to go to Liangzhou temporarily. It may take some time before he returns to Beijing."

Ling Youyao paused: "What did His Majesty ask him to go to Liangzhou?"

Jiang Liu didn't intend to hide it from her, and explained: "Prince Jing'an wanted to return to Beijing at the end of the year, but the current situation is unstable, so His Majesty rejected his proposal. The purpose of sending the prince to Liangzhou now is to appease Jing'an. The king and the soldiers of Liangzhou."

"So that's how it is." King Jing'an has been stationed in the northern region for several years and has not returned for many years. It is understandable for him to want to return to Beijing.

Seeing that her expression was calm, Jiang Liu didn't know what to say, so he bowed and withdrew.

Yin Zhu comforted: "My lord didn't say that he won't come back, there are still a few days before New Year's Eve, maybe my lord will come back just in time for New Year's Eve."

Holding the thin letter, Ling Youyao felt a faint throbbing in her heart, and said, "I know, just read it."

"Didn't the prince write you a letter? You should open it and have a look."

Ling Youyao looked at the blank envelope and was very dissatisfied. When she wrote the letter, she always wrote a personal letter, but Fu Mingjue didn't care at all.

Thinking this way, the expectations dropped a bit.He tore off the seal casually and pulled it out, only to find that there was another layer inside?
