the first lady

Chapter 54

This person: the third prince of the Nanwu Kingdom, and also the imperial general of Pingbei - Helian Feiqi.

Helian Feiqi looked at Zong Zhengye and smiled: "You don't want to see me so much? Thanks to the fact that I rushed all the way from the Yi tribe to see you, and even used words to mock me when I came here? Am I full of food? Support it?" When talking to Zong Zhengye, he didn't have the airs of a prince at all.

"Okay, okay, Qi, don't laugh at me, let's go, go to the camp." Zong Zhengye deepened his smile, and had to say that Helian Feiqi came from the Yi clan, he was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

Helian Feiqi and Zong Zhengye have been brothers who have fought side by side for more than ten years, and it was only a few years ago that they were separated by two imperial edicts, one south and one north.Although the two are now independent, the relationship between the two has never become shallow.

"Ye, I heard that there is some movement in the palace again, isn't it?" Helian Feiqi sneered while playing with the teacup.

"How to say?" Zong Zhengye asked.

"The old guy is going to marry Xiao Liu to you, isn't he?" Helian Feiqi put down his glass, with a harmless smile on his face, but the coldness in his eyes did not diminish at all.

Zong Zhengye frowned, "Did you already know what the emperor is thinking?"

"Ye, you should know that if Xiaoliu marries you, the two of us..." Helian Feiqi's smile faded away, and he got straight to the point, with a layer of melancholy in his eyes.

"Qi!" Zong Zhengye cut off Helian Feiqi's words, and said seriously, "You should know that no matter what, I will not be your enemy!"

Hearing Zongzhengye's words, Helian Feiqi felt a little warm in his heart, but in the end he just showed a wry smile: "If you don't become an enemy of me, you will make the entire Zongzheng family fall into injustice, and even more so with you. The crown prince is an enemy, do you think I will let you make such a choice?" He naturally knew Zong Zhengye's character, but this matter was still targeted, and he had to be aware of it!

Even if it goes without saying, the people in the court have divided the power of the royal family into two factions, the prince and the third prince.Judging from the relationship between the prime minister and the prince, it is natural to understand that the prime minister is on the prince's side.In particular, Emperor Wu bestowed a marriage for the prime minister, which also drew the strength of the Qiao family to the crown prince.The third son of the Zongzheng family has a very good relationship with the fifth prince, and is regarded as supporting the third prince. Now that the imperial decree of marriage is issued, it will continue to increase the power of the prince, and at the same time draw the Huo family to the prince's side.

Whether it is Zong Zhengye or Helian Feiqi, they can easily see the distribution.

"Besides, Ye, it's not that you don't know what Xiaoliu thinks of you. If you don't marry her, she might hang herself on impulse!" Seeing Zongzhengye's distressed look, Helian Feiqi changed the subject. , with a sense of ridicule.

The originally serious topic was suddenly changed by Helian Feiqi, and Zong Zhengye couldn't help but laugh.

"The sixth princess deserves to be entrusted to a better person for life." Zong Zhengye sighed with a dark face.

"But Xiao Liu fell in love with you at first sight, you have the heart to let her..."

"Qi, is there anything else you need to come to see me?" Zong Zhengye didn't want to focus on the topic of the sixth princess anymore, the current situation was enough for him to have a headache.

There was nothing Zong Zhengye could do to veto Helian Feiqi like this, it was better to let nature take its course.

He took out the letter from his pocket and handed it in front of Zong Zhengye, saying: "Perhaps we can investigate carefully in the barracks. It would be bad if someone with a heart is allowed to sneak in."

"Where did you intercept it?" Zong Zhengye knew what Helian Feiqi meant when he heard what he said.

Helian Feiqi smiled handsomely, "On my way here, I saw a guard who was planning to climb over the mountains."

What he said was skillful, and he didn't say it directly, but it made Zong Zhengye understand what he meant after hearing it.

Lingshan is just a hundred feet away from the place where the army is stationed. As long as it can lead to the Yi people in the front, they can pass through the dangerous road of Lingshan.The guard who sent the letter wanted to cross the mountains, obviously he wanted to send the letter to the Yi people.As for the use of his letter by the Yi people, that's another matter!

"Ye, the imperial decree should arrive in two days, you really don't plan to go back?" After a moment of silence, Helian Feiqi still spoke seriously.

He will know the news of the capital because there is a third younger brother in the palace. He has raised an eagle and can deliver news for them.The distance from the camp to the capital takes a few days, but the eagle with wings can reach it in just one hour.

When he heard the news, he rushed to Zong Zhengye's place non-stop. He knew Zong Zhengye's personality, and he came this time because he didn't want to embarrass him.

"Qi, if you treat me as a friend, don't say such things!" Zong Zhengye said with a sullen face.

"Ye..." Helian Feiqi frowned tightly.

"Brother, if you don't go back, so what if the emperor punishes our clan and politicians for deceiving the emperor?" Helian Feiqi just opened his mouth, and a voice with a smile appeared at the door of the tent.

Helian Feiqi and Zong Zhengye followed the sound with their eyes, and saw two handsome men walking in, which instantly filled the crude tent with light.

"Yan?!" Zong Zhengye looked at the man walking in front in surprise, and Helian Feiqi was also full of surprise.

What really surprised Zongzhengye was the person who walked in behind Zongzhengyan. He was a very handsome man, dressed in white clothes that looked so elegant on her body, and he looked familiar...

"You are..." Even Zong Zhengye, who was calm and composed, couldn't help but widen his eyes after seeing her appearance clearly.

"Brother, long time no see, don't come here without any problems." Qiao Ling'er in men's clothing smiled and greeted.

"Two..." Zongzhengye opened his mouth, but Fang Zongzhengyan had already interrupted him.

"Brother, 'Second Brother' and I came here just to tell you that the emperor's imperial decree may already be on the way." Zong Zhengyan gave Zong Zhengye a meaningful look, and at the same time gave him a wink.

Zongzheng Ye immediately reacted to Zongzheng Yan's words, but he did not loosen his brows, and just looked at Qiao Ling'er fixedly.

The important place of the military camp is not something ordinary people can come to, but if it is the current prime minister, it will be different, especially the general Zhennan is still the prime minister's eldest brother, so coming here must have privileges.

"The third prince is here too!" Zong Zhengyan's eyes fell on Helian Feiqi next to him, but there was no respect in his tone.

Helian Feiqi is not rigid, he has played together since he was a child, although Zong Zhengyan is a few years older, it will not cause a big gap between the two.

"Third brother, long time no see." Helian Feiqi almost followed Zong Zhengye's address, and he has been called third brother since he was a child.

Qiao Linger's gaze fell on Helian Feiqi. He had heard of this third prince who was both civil and military in the capital, but had no luck to see him. Today, I have to say that the three princes The prince really has the temperament of an emperor.In addition to the hidden aloof temperament on his body, there is also his brow full of righteousness.

Compared with the crown prince Helian Feiyan, Qiao Ling'er had a much better impression of the third prince.

"Yan, why did you come here with... Yi?" Zong Zhengye asked, but he was a bit awkward when he said that Qiao Linger was Zong Zhengyi.

Qiao Ling'er pretended to be Zong Zhengyi, but that's the only way to get to the important place of the military camp, isn't it?

Naturally, Helian Feiqi also knew that Qiao Ling'er was not the real Prime Minister Zongzheng Yi, but she was able to borrow his identity and come here with Zongzheng Yan, the eldest son of the Zongzheng family, so she naturally had some status.

"Brother, we received a letter from Fei Ge a day ago. Your wedding day will be fifteen days later, and the imperial decree should arrive in two days." Qiao Ling'er said Zong Zhengyi's account in the letter.

Speaking of Zong Zhengyi, Qiao Ling'er really admired him.

Two days before the edict was issued, Zong Zhengyi sent someone to deliver the letter to the military camp, and at the same time ordered Zong Zhengyan to go south in person, saying that Zong Zhengye would not agree to go back.Now after hearing it here, I realized that what he said was really true, Zong Zhengye really would not be an enemy of the third prince!

As for why she appeared here, it actually comes down to something else: what they "conspired" in private.

To create a seventh family without anyone noticing, Zongzhengyan alone would have some difficulty. At the same time, he must also take charge of the third family so that outsiders can't see the difference.Therefore, Qiao Linger decided to use the time in the south to redistribute the things that needed to be dealt with.

No matter what Zong Zhengyan said, Qiao Ling'er was not allowed to come. Someone in the palace already wanted to put her to death, and going out like this would definitely bring her danger.

Zongzheng Yi didn't agree at all, but she insisted that when she appeared in front of everyone with a different face, Zongzheng Yi could only agree to her request.So along the way, she just pretended to be Zong Zhengyan's follower.

Qiao Yishu's disguise is unparalleled. Before leaving, Zong Zhengyi repeatedly told Zong Zhengyan to take good care of her.Simply put, he is worried!

Also came with Qing Ye and Lan Feng, the two of them are not low in martial arts, and Lan Feng is good at using poison, if they are really in danger, they can also counteract it.

Thinking of Zong Zhengyi's silence at that time, Qiao Ling'er felt a little guilty, she didn't want him to worry.But if she doesn't come out, some businesses cannot be easily resolved.At the same time, they will not come to the barracks so smoothly.But Zong Zhengyi didn't say anything in the end, he just asked her to take care of herself, that man...

It can be said that this is a secret journey, and Zongzheng Yi pinched the time allocation so accurately that even Emperor Wu knew exactly when the imperial edict would be issued.

Zong Zhengye frowned, "Why did my second brother let me go back?"

"Brother, don't you understand what the emperor is thinking?" Zong Zhengyan took the words and glanced at Helian Feiqi at the same time.

"Hehe." Helian Feiqi smiled helplessly, "Ye doesn't want to be my enemy."
