Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 1029: Maybe a Test

"This prince is sincerely praising you."

"Then I will be disrespectful to refuse." Gu Qingjue took a sip and said, "Tubonia and the Song Dynasty are thousands of miles apart, and it is winter now. The Third Prince must have traveled day and night to attend your nephew's hundred-day banquet. It must be really hard."

Pingcuo: "..., it's not bad."

Gu Qingjue: "After all, the Third Prince is a prince, and he is also the biological brother of Princess Shun. We should go to the city gate to welcome him, and then hold a banquet to show our sincerity."

Pingcuo OS: Now I just want to go back to Tubo as soon as possible, and don’t let anything happen. Without the White Bone God, I feel insecure in Kyoto.

"Third Prince, what do you think?"

"This prince is here only to attend my nephew's hundred-day banquet. After the banquet, this prince will leave Beijing and return to Tubo. I appreciate Lord Gu's kindness."

"Why are you in such a hurry? This is the first time for the Third Prince to come to Song, so he must have a good time before leaving. Let's not talk about other places, there are many delicious foods and beautiful scenery in the capital of Song Dynasty. Anyway, I have nothing to do during this period of time. If the Third Prince doesn't mind, I can take you around."

What Gu Qingjue said makes sense.

Pingcuo couldn't refuse.

So he set his sights on Prince Shun.

The imperial sister was able to convince Prince Shun to hold a hundred-day banquet for his child, so she must be on his side.

Unexpectedly, Prince Shun followed Gu Qingjue's wishes and tried to keep him.

Pingcuo cursed in his heart.

After the banquet was over, Pingcuo came to Ram's courtyard and said in a bad tone: "What does Prince Shun mean? He knew I didn't want to stay, but he followed Gu Qingjue's words to keep me. I have stayed for a long time, and my father urged me to go back. I can't delay any longer."

"Your Highness may not understand what my brother meant."

Pingcuo sneered twice: "Who knows whether he didn't understand the meaning or he simply didn't want to understand. Imperial sister, your relationship with Prince Shun is not as good as I thought."

Ram's face darkened at these words.

The relationship between her and Prince Shun is indeed different from that of an ordinary couple. Rather than being a couple, they are more like allies.

But if the allies are not sufficiently bound by interests, they may break off the bond or betray you at any time.

Otherwise, why didn't Prince Shun make her child the crown prince?

She is the Princess of Shun, and Zhao Shao is the eldest son, so it is legitimate for him to become the Crown Prince.

But even though it was so legitimate, Prince Shun had no intention of asking His Majesty for permission to enthrone Shao'er as the Crown Prince.

When Shao'er was one month old, she had reminded him indirectly, but he seemed not to understand and did not respond at all. She knew at that time that she thought she had Prince Shun under control, but in fact Prince Shun was playing dumb with her.

But Ram didn't want outsiders to know about this.

Even though he was her own brother, she still felt embarrassed.

"Brother, you don't need to know so much about what happened between Prince Shun and me. What you should be concerned about now is why Gu Qingjue wanted to keep you here and what his purpose is."

Pingcuo: "I am the third prince of Tubo after all. When I come to the Song Dynasty, I must be treated with courtesy."

Ram sighed, really a little speechless.

After adjusting her mentality, she spoke again: "Brother, you don't think that they don't know that you have already come to Kyoto City, right?"

Phuntsok: “What do you mean?”

"Brother, don't you understand these things? We can place spies in the capital of the Song Dynasty, and they can do the same in Tubo. As soon as you leave Tubo, they may have received the news. Another thing is that when you came, the capital was already under martial law. They closely monitor everyone entering the capital and will check repeatedly. How long can you hide your identity?"

"I can do these perfectly."

Perfect? ​​Nothing in this world is perfect.

What's more, what's his ability?
If she hadn't given her advice and secretly supported her after she came to Songdu, she would have been eaten alive by those royal brothers.

"There's no point in saying this now. You need to write a letter to your father to explain the situation, and then focus on dealing with Gu Qingjue and try to leave as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, I know how to do it."

In the next few days, Gu Qingjue took Pingcuo for a stroll all day.

Li Shijie, who was hiding in a secret place, listened to the reports from the spies every day. Although he considered himself to be smart, Li Shijie could not understand what Gu Qingjue was trying to do.

Guard Anji asked, "Your Highness, could it be that the Third Prince has formed an alliance with the Song Dynasty? He seems to be wandering around, but is actually looking for Your Highness?"

Angie's words surprised Li Shijie.

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

They might not be wandering around, but looking for him.

If he were found, he would be "accidentally killed". Who would he turn to for justice?

Who told him to come to Kyoto privately?

"Anji, make sure you arrange to leave the city as soon as possible."

"Your Highness, we have been working hard these past few days, but it has been ten days and the city gate is still heavily guarded, making it difficult to get out of the city."

The soldiers who were conducting the inspection openly withdrew, but in fact, they had switched from open to covert operations.

The defense of the Song capital also amazed them.

A powerful and powerful country is different.

Li Shian began to get impatient. Why did he believe Xiao Yingsu's words and come here in person? How should he get out of this situation?

An Ji saw Li Shian's mood and comforted him, "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. If it really doesn't work, we can only sacrifice a few secret agents and risk our lives to escort Your Highness out of the city."

Li Shijie: "..., there are only these few hidden stakes left. If they are exposed again, then the whole army will be wiped out. It will not be easy for me to report to Jiaozhi."

Ever since he killed Li Shian and took the throne of crown prince, his father no longer trusted and loved him as much as before.

He could feel his father's alienation and distrust.

"Your Highness, these can all be rebuilt later. The most important thing right now is to leave Beijing safely."

Li Shijie's eyes darkened. "You are right. None of these are more important than my life. I have come this far step by step, and I cannot die here."

Pingcuo walked on the street with his hands behind his back, bored.

"Prince Jin, is this the scenery you want to show me? The capital of the Song Dynasty is very prosperous, but it is really boring to see these things every day. If this is the case, I will leave and return to Tubo tomorrow."

"The Third Prince is too impatient and it is difficult for him to appreciate the unique beauty of this bustling street."

Pingcuo sneered: "There are only people here, and the houses here are just a little taller and prettier than those elsewhere. What unique beauty can there be?"

Gu Qingjue pointed casually and said, "Third Prince, look over there!"

Pingcuo looked in the direction of Gu Qingjue's finger, and his expression suddenly changed. Wasn't that their Tubo's secret agent? How did Gu Qingjue know about him?
The previous secret agents were exposed because they participated in the escort of the defense map, but Pingcuo was not completely stupid. He left behind a few secret agents who had never been used to play a role at the critical moment.

But Gu Qingjue actually knew it!

No, it could also be a test for myself.
