Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 296 Secretly watching over her

Murong Guang looked confused.

Didn't you already agree with your second brother to give Princess Yingxue some time to rest, and he wouldn't come to disturb her?

Why can't I wait even though it's only been less than two days?
"See Your Highness Third!"

Several government soldiers saluted together.

The leading soldier said respectfully: "I have been ordered to come here to build a swing for the princess of Chu."

After saying that, he looked at Princess Yingxue diligently: "May I ask where the princess wants to build the swing?"

Xiang Yingxue thought it was Xiaoju and Murong Guang's request and gave her a hard look.

Xiaoju just breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that the soldiers were not here to arrest anyone.

When he raised his eyes, he saw the accusing look coming from the princess. He quickly took her arm and explained: "Princess, it's not me. I didn't say anything."

Xiaoju looked at Fu Bing in confusion: "How do you know the princess wants a swing?"

"This……"

Several soldiers looked at each other, no one knew what to say.

His Highness King Chen issued an order yesterday to recruit people who can make swings in the camp. Those who do well will be rewarded heavily.

Then a few of them volunteered to come.

Before coming, His Highness Prince Chen repeatedly warned not to say that he asked them to go.

The current situation is like this: His Highness is not allowed to tell the truth, and he is afraid of His Highness being blamed for telling lies, so what should we do?

Under the curious gazes of Princess Yingxue and Xiaoju, the soldiers felt increasingly embarrassed.

"I sent them here."

Murong Guang had already guessed who ordered them to come, and also thought of the reason why the soldiers were hesitant, so he simply took the responsibility himself.

As for why the second brother knew Xue'er's thoughts, he knew without even thinking about it. He must be hiding somewhere to secretly take care of her because he was worried about her injury. "When I was in Chu State, I often heard people say that the daughters of wealthy families like to play on swings, so I wanted to build one for Xueer in this yard."

Although Xiang Yingxue and Xiaoju didn't know why anyone would come to ride on the swing, they couldn't imagine that anyone else in Yan Jun's territory would care about the Princess of Chu except Murong Guang.

After Murong Guang said this, they no longer had any doubts. They looked around and began to choose the best place to build the swing.

Several of the soldiers were veterans at work. After Princess Yingxue chose the place, she got busy.

Not long after, a swing was set up under a few osmanthus trees that were in bloom.

According to the instructions of His Highness Prince Chen, a soft brocade cushion was tied to the seat of the swing to prevent Princess Yingxue from catching cold.

After the construction was completed, the leading soldier tried several times to make sure it was absolutely stable, and then led several others to salute Murong Guang and leave.

"Xue'er, come here and try."

After the soldiers left, Murong Guang waved to Xiang Yingxue.

Xiao Jue helped her get on the swing, and Murong Guang pushed her gently behind her, causing Xiang Yingxue's whole body to float up high.

As the swing moved higher and higher, her smile became brighter and brighter.

Seeing the golden osmanthus flowers all over the courtyard swinging before her eyes, Princess Yingxue temporarily forgot about the pain she suffered in the Yan Army camp and sang softly.

"The sweet-scented osmanthus falls when people are idle,

The night is quiet and the spring mountain is empty,
The moonrise frightens the mountain bird,
It's time to sing in the spring stream. "

When Murong Guang was working in Chu State, he often listened to Xiang Yingxue singing while cooking.

Although the sound made him feel like he had returned to that time of great peace of mind, it didn't surprise him much.

But Murong Chen, who had been hiding on the wall in the backyard of the tree, was stunned.
