first princess

Chapter 92
Huarong arranged a room for Zhifan and Liu Lu, right next to the master bedroom, Zhifan thought that her lady was guarding Zhuge Xi, so as a slave, she should also guard her lady, Zhifan smiled : "I'll just lay a floor on the outside, and I'll be more familiar with my lady's orders in the middle of the night."

Before Huarong opened his mouth, Liu Lu said, "Since the eldest lady is here to serve the sick, it would be disingenuous for us to help from the side."

Hua Rong frowned when he heard this, but he still said politely: "You two go to bed early, I have asked someone to prepare hot water for changing clothes, and the kitchenette provides hot water and pastries all night. Then, don't treat yourself as an outsider."

Liu Lu touched the corner of her lips lightly: "It's good to get acquainted in advance, anyway, we will be a family in the future."

Hua Rong was startled, and cast a sideways glance at Liu Lu, but turned and left the room without saying anything, but the sound of closing the door was slightly louder.

As soon as Hua Rong left, Zhi Fan lightly pushed Liu Lu's shoulder, and asked scoldingly, "Why did you come today? Have you eaten gunpowder? Why are you so rude? Who is Hua Rong? She is the most embarrassing person in front of Miss Zhuge." You offended her, and she has a big heart and thinks that your little family is okay. If she thinks that the young lady acquiesced in your rudeness, what will she think of the young lady? What will Miss Zhuge think of the young lady?"

Liu Lu pursed her lips and snorted unhappily.

Zhifan nodded her head again, and continued to reprimand: "I see you are very clever on weekdays, but at the critical moment, you hinder the eldest lady. Let me tell you, it's only this time, don't make an example, otherwise, I will report to the eldest daughter. Miss!"

Liu Lu glared at Zhi Fan, because she was more noble than her now, so she took the opportunity to punish her with Qiao!
Seeing that Liu Lu didn't show any remorse, Zhi Fan couldn't help but raise his voice: "Liu Lu, tell me clearly! What are you crazy about?"

Liu Lu turned around coldly, and fell on the bed: "A maid is born to be a lowly life, so she deserves to be tricked around?"

Zhi Fan asked suspiciously, "Who have you been cheated by?"

Liu Lu covered her head with the quilt, and a muffled voice came out: "No one!"

Zhifan frowned...

Shui Linglong lay on the soft couch after bathing, Hua Rongwen planned to turn off the light, and Shui Linglong left a weak candle light on the grounds that it would be convenient to know Zhuge Xi's situation at any time.She smoothed her long, smooth hair and was about to fall asleep.

At this time, the little girl guarding the gate reported that Miss Dong Jia had come.

"Please come in." Shui Linglong sat up straight and wore a blue spring dress with double breasts.

Dong Jialin brought a bowl of corn soup inside, and she was a little surprised when she saw Shui Linglong. It turns out that there is a kind of woman in the world who is not overpowering, but shakes people's hearts. She suppressed the amazement in her eyes and showed a warm smile: "I saw that Miss Shui didn't have much for dinner, so I ordered the small kitchen to prepare a bowl of your favorite dessert."

This preference should be told by Zhuge Xi to Dong Jialin, but Shui Linglong feels a little weird, she is the future mistress of the palace, why is she like a guest and Dong Jialin like a master?Shui Linglong put away the momentary discomfort and said with a smile, "Thank you Miss Dong Jia."

While talking, the two had already sat down at the round table, Dong Jialin put the porridge in front of Shui Linglong, Shui Linglong took a few symbolic mouthfuls and then put down the spoon.

Dong Jialin smiled slightly, the corners of her lips seemed to be there or not: "I think you are not in good spirits, I will accompany Miss Zhuge tonight, you go back to your room and rest, and it will be the same if you come back tomorrow morning."

Shui Linglong politely refused, "Resting here is also resting."

Dong Jialin smiled, said no more, picked up the tray and left the room.

Unexpectedly, not long after Shui Linglong lay down, Anping begged to see her again outside the courtyard.

Shui Linglong was fully dressed, and met Anping at the gate of the yard, Anping bowed and handed over a brocade box, saying: "Prince Princess said this is the jewelry she ordered for you last time."

Shui Linglong's eyes flashed, she took the brocade box and went back to Zhuge Xi's room.

She opened the brocade box and found the letter she Bingbing had copied from Yun Li in the mezzanine, saying that the third concubine was about to give birth, and if the eldest grandson of the emperor was born, the third prince's bargaining chip would increase a lot, please Yun Li You must be careful of the various conspiracies and tricks of the third prince, and the other side is highly suspicious that the third prince and King Zhenbei are colluding together. It means that it is even more difficult for the imperial court to control Kashgar, which is a precursor to the third prince's conspiracy to rebel.

snort!
It's Xun Feng again!
I'm afraid the turmoil in Kashgar has nothing to do with him!
Shui Linglong burned the secret letter with a candle, her eyes were as cold as two holes dug out from the ice hell, Xun Feng, you are cruel, if you don't let you shed some blood this time, Shui Linglong will be reborn in vain!
The civil strife in Kashgar intensified. After the patriarch and King Zhenbei suffered accidents one after another, the emperor decided to send a thousand cavalry to Kashgar to help Zhuge's family suppress the civil strife.

Kashgar has his own army, but the lack of a leader in the army is distracted, and the combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. As long as the imperial army wins one or two battles at a speed that is not as fast as lightning, the army's morale will be stabilized immediately. The chaotic party is encircling and suppressing, and the chance of winning is not small.

But who can stabilize the overall situation?

Yun Li was about to recommend himself to lead the troops to Kashgar, but the third prince was one step ahead of him, holding the wat board and saying, "Father! My son is willing to lead the troops there!"

Immediately afterwards, several officials agreed.

Yun Li took a step forward and said softly: "Let the minister go! The third younger sibling is about to give birth, if the third younger brother leads the army and misses the birth of the little son, the third younger sibling will be sad."

The third prince said disapprovingly: "Not everyone clings to His Highness the Crown Prince like the princess! The third prince will have her child taken care of by the imperial doctor and her family, so I don't need to worry about it."

Yun Li smiled slightly, and was not at all angry at what the third prince said, because the third prince had already lost when he compared Bingbing with the third concubine.Who doesn't know that the wedding date of the two of them was originally scheduled for next year, but due to the secret knot of the beaded fetus, the wedding date had to be brought forward. As a result, the third prince became the first among all the princes to get married.

The emperor glanced at the third prince with displeasure.

The third prince realized that he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly changed his starting point: "Father, Your Highness the Crown Prince is the Crown Prince of our court. It is really inappropriate to go to such a place where there is chaos and chaos, and I would like to raise the banner of His Highness the Crown Prince." Going out, the people of Kashgar can still feel the blessings of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

This is to say, I don't want military merit, I will give it all to the prince.

It seems that Yun Li is rushing to go to war just to make military exploits!
The emperor looked at the third prince, then at Yun Li, and finally snorted lazily, and said: "Order the third prince to be General Zhengxi, and Guo Yan to be the deputy general, to go to Kashgar to celebrate on behalf of the court!"

Guo Yan raised his eyebrows. He was worried that he would not have the opportunity to help Linglong solve the dilemma in the Zhenbei Palace, so he was really sleepy and came to send a pillow.

The third prince was very displeased, Guo Yan was the prince's direct brother-in-law, if Guo Yan went, wouldn't it represent half of the prince?The emperor is really cunning and cunning!But fortunately, he is the chief general, and he has the final say on what to do at that time!If Guo Yan wants to shine, he has to ask him if he will give Guo Yan a chance!
After facing down, Yun Li's carriage headed towards the Prince's Mansion, and met Xun Feng on the way.

Yun Li allowed Xun Feng to get in the car, Xun Feng bowed to the crown prince, and said worriedly: "Your Highness, I have heard about everything in the court, and please be more considerate, Your Highness, and make plans early."

Yun Li asked indifferently: "How do you say that?"

Xun Feng secretly scolded the person who provoked the relationship between him and the prince, making it difficult for him to walk now. The prince always gets along with him like a smiling hedgehog. He looked at Shang Yunli's scrutinizing eyes frankly, and said seriously: "Your Highness, I I think the third prince and Kashiqing have colluded long ago, and the so-called civil strife is a good show directed by Kashiqing, and its purpose is to give the third prince a great military exploit."

Yun Li's smile narrowed slightly: "Go on."

Xun Feng was overjoyed, but his face remained solemn: "Your Highness, think about it, if the third prince quells the civil strife in Kashgar, and the third concubine gives birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, their weight in the emperor's heart will surpass you in an instant. !"

Yun Li's smile slowly narrowed.

Xun Feng continued to be persuasive: "And, in case, the day when the third prince won the victory happened to be the day when the third concubine gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson. According to Kashgar's superstitious tradition, this child is their Kashgar's lucky star. The common people will support the third prince's family from now on, with Kashgar as the backer, Your Highness, the possibility of you ascending to the throne... has been greatly reduced!"

The third concubine still has more than a month to give birth. If this is really a conspiracy, the third prince is very likely to win Kashgar within a month. Then, if you use some oxytocin... Yun Li's eyes flickered slightly, and said : "You mean, all of this is a bitter trick set up by Zhuge Liuyun and Zhuge Liufeng? Is Zhuge Liuyun dead or not?"

Xun Feng shook his head: "I don't dare to make a judgment on this, maybe Zhuge Liufeng is the only one who colluded with the third prince, and he took the opportunity to eradicate King Zhenbei who might pose a hidden threat to his position as patriarch; or maybe the two brothers conspired together , to work together for the third prince, if it is the latter, King Zhenbei should still be alive."

After bidding farewell to Yunli, Xun Feng didn't go directly back to Pingnan Palace, but went to the scheduled boat instead.

On a bright day in May, the scenery on the lake is unique. The blue waves reflect the sun, and the golden lights are like pearls gathered in a lake, which is shining and moving.

In the painting boat, the third prince hugged the little beauty with one arm, and took a wine glass to feed the little beauty with the other hand. The little beauty put it in her mouth but did not swallow it, but gently inserted it into the third prince's lips.

"It's interesting to drink like this. Come on, let's continue." The third prince had a great time playing, and took off the little beauty's clothes in two or three times, revealing her fair skin and pink embroidered mandarin duck bellyband, and the third prince played with her softness , and aimed at the place and bit down.

The little beauty said coquettishly, "Your Highness, you are playing tricks!"

When Xun Feng pushed the door and entered, he encountered such a lewd scene. A trace of disgust flashed in his deep eyes, which was fleeting. When the third prince looked at him, he had already raised the gentlest smile: "Third Highness."

The third prince patted the little beauty, and the little beauty stepped back tactfully.

The third prince's expression became solemn: "I'm leaving tomorrow morning, are you sure everything has been arranged?"

Xun Feng poured himself a glass of wine, and his lips, which were more rosy than women's, slowly curled up in an arc that turned all sentient beings upside down, watching the third prince's heart beat wildly: "When it comes to Kashgar, there will naturally be someone to help you, to protect you as soon as possible." The speed to wipe out the rebels."

The third prince raised one corner of his lips and looked at Xun Feng with a half-smile: "Aren't you the prince's aide? Why do you suddenly want to join me? It can't be... You are the spy sent by the prince!"

Xun Feng knew that the third prince would ask this question. If he, a high-level intellectual in the 21st century, can't play with these ancients, then he has spent so many years studying for nothing!Xun Feng smiled: "The third highness is so cautious, which proves that I did not underestimate the intelligence of the third highness."

A top hat off!

The third prince is very useful!

Xun Feng said again: "As His Highness has seen with his own eyes, the South Water Falls to the West Project is a flood control and drought prevention strategy that I thought up after spending all my sleep and food, racking my brains. The opportunity to control Kashgar is of great benefit to the prince's great cause. But what did the prince do? He turned his head and gave the opportunity to control the dam to Kashgar, didn't he just want to take the opportunity to win over the Prince of Zhenbei and harvest Kashgar? Is it popular? Pingnan Wangfu and Zhenbei Wangfu are incompatible, the whole world knows, the crown prince stepped on my head and used my strategy to curry favor with my enemies, why should I serve him again?"

Zhenbei Wangfu and Pingnan Wangfu had a good relationship in the early years, but now it is true that it is as cold as ice.The third prince smiled: "I promise you, after I ascend the throne, I will destroy the Zhenbei Palace for you!"

Xun Feng stood up and blessed him respectfully, but contempt flashed in his eyes: "I will do my best for His Highness!"

But he said that Yun Li planned to return home immediately after bidding farewell to Xun Feng, when suddenly a young man who looked like a scholar stopped his carriage, Yun Li opened the curtain and looked, and was stunned for a moment...

In order to deceive others, Shui Linglong secretly changed into men's clothes in Baolinxuan's wing and ran out. At this time, Zhifan pretended to be her lying in the wing to rest.

Yun Li felt that Shui Linglong's courage was too great, it was fine to go out of the house privately, and even dressed up in such a nondescript manner, if word got out, where would she put her reputation?
"Next time, don't be so willful. If you need me, send someone to let me know. I'll see you." For the first time, he used a very stern tone.

Shui Linglong didn't have time to argue with him about these details, so she just cut to the chase: "Your Highness, did Xun Feng look for you?" She just asked Anping to keep an eye on Xun Feng's movements since last night.

Yun Li blinked slowly, and asked in doubt, "How do you know?"

Since Shui Linglong dared to come today, she was determined to break the boat. She took a deep breath, looked into Yun Li's shining eyes, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, Xun Feng can't be trusted! He played with everyone and applauded." In the midst of this, and then reap the benefits of being a fisherman, Your Highness, you must not be deceived by him again."

Yun Li's heart was startled fiercely. If he remembered correctly, the person in front of him was just a boudoir girl. Even with the tacit consent of the old lady, she was able to go in and out of Shangshu's mansion occasionally to socialize with some high-society ladies, but she was a woman after all. How could you say such shocking words?

Shui Linglong continued: "Your Highness, please allow me to ask a few questions."

Yun Li paused, and said, "Say it."

"May I ask your Highness, did Xun Feng tell you that the Third Prince colluded with Kashiqing? This civil strife is actually a military service that Kashiqing bestowed on the Third Prince?"

Yun Li defaulted.

"Then did he say that if the third concubine gives birth to the eldest grandson on the day the third prince wins, the people in Kashgar will regard her as a lucky star?"

Yun Li couldn't deny it.

"Finally, he told you that with the grandson of the emperor and Kashgar together, the third prince's weight in Long Live Lord's mind will be higher than yours. Please be sure to collect enough criminal evidence before the third prince's triumphant return, so that the third prince will be imprisoned in one fell swoop." Hell! And these criminal evidences, Xun Feng will naturally take the initiative to send them to you through some officials!"

Yun Li was startled again, if he hadn't asked the guards to guard the scene when he was talking with Xun Feng, he would probably have thought that Shui Linglong hid aside and overheard their conversation!What kind of person can guess another person's mind and strategy so accurately?
Shui Linglong understood Yun Li's doubts, but she couldn't tell him that she had been a husband and wife with Xun Feng in her previous life, so she understood Xun Feng's thoughts in this way. After the triumphant victory of the military exploits, you will immediately fall into a big somersault. The so-called military exploits can only come to naught. It means that you have not made military exploits, and neither has the third prince! However, Xun Feng used this civil strife to severely damage the town of Qinghe in Kashgar. Beiwangfu, you actually want to win over the Zhenbeiwangfu, right? But if Xun Feng succeeds in his scheme, what you win will only be an empty shell!"

Yun Li looked at Shui Linglong with a surprised and amazed look!
Shui Linglong ignored Yun Li's scorching gaze, and calmly said: "I have a way to solve this dilemma for Your Highness, but I have a condition..."

Shui Linglong and Zhifan changed back to their original clothes and returned to Wangzhen Beiwang Mansion, but they ran into Guo Yan.

Guo Yan came here in the name of visiting Princess Zhenbei, Leng Youru received him in the flower hall, and chatted for a few words, but they had nothing in common, so Leng Youru asked Guo Yan to do whatever he wanted. Then nestled into the Buddhist hall again.

Guo Yan wandered around the garden near the second gate, and finally made him wait for Shui Linglong.However, the moment he saw Shui Linglong, his face darkened instantly. It's been over two months since he saw her. How did she lose so much weight?
"Linglong!" Guo Yan held back his deep distress and waved to Shui Linglong.

Shui Linglong followed the sound and looked sideways, and saw Guo Yan, who was dressed in purple and looked magnificent among the colorful purples and reds.
