Zheshu

Chapter 69 is finally here
Ling'er was still dressed in white, and when the weather got warmer, she sat on a bamboo chair by the lake, like a fairy who would emerge from the sky at any moment.

She didn't know what happened outside, Ji Wuhuan didn't allow anyone to tell her bad things, so she was still that innocent girl.

Shen Qing looked at the green lotus leaves on the lake, and fist-sized flower buds also popped out, standing pink and tender, as if peeping at the people on the shore.

"Sister-in-law Qingqing, is eldest brother very busy recently?" Ling'er smiled and said in the direction of Shen Qing.

Shen Qing responded with a smile, and it happened that the wind was blowing, which made people very tired.

She has been here for several days, but no news from the outside can come in, and Ji Wuhuan won't let them go out. To this day, Shen Qing looked at the person standing behind Linger and never spoke.

When the First Prince saw Ling'er for the first time, he seemed to have lost his soul, and froze in place.

Shen Qing knew that he was innocent, but she didn't intend to let him have any contact with Ling'er.Ling'er is too simple, but his scheming is too deep.

"Ling'er, let's go on a cruise." Shen Qing said with a smile.

Ling'er was delighted at first, but then looked in Shen Qing's direction with disappointment and apology: "Sister-in-law Qingqing, Ling'er can't see."

Shen Qing felt distressed, but stepped forward and took her hand and said: "It's okay, I can't see it, you can feel the swaying boat, touch the cool lake water and the unopened flower buds, the sun will set soon, the sun Falling into the lake, it's like a shower of shiny gold, you can feel it."

Surprise was overflowing on Linger's face, but she turned to the mother beside her and asked: "Mom, can Linger go?"

Mammy took Ling'er with her since she was a child, just like her own daughter. Seeing her so happy, she looked at Shen Qing again and nodded.

Shen Qing smiled: "Linger will go first, sister-in-law will come soon."

"Okay." Ling'er replied with a smile, as pure as an elf.

She is always so well-behaved and obedient, and she will never go against other people's wishes.

As Shen Qing thought about it, she felt distressed again.

After Ling'er left, Shen Qing looked at the eldest prince who was following Ling'er: "The eldest prince should know that I will not let you get out alive after you come here." There was murderous intent in Shen Qing's words, although not Knowing how he found it, but for Ling'er, she will not let him leave now.

The eldest prince smiled, his white lips raised high: "That's great, I can pay for the food."

Shen Qing was dumb, got up and took a few steps forward, blocking his gaze: "In this world, if someone dares to hurt Ling'er, not only Wu Huan, but also I will tear that person into pieces, First Prince, what I said Do you understand enough?"

The eldest prince bent his eyes and smiled: "I know, I won't disturb her." Because he himself didn't have a good life for long.

Shen Qing was dumbfounded, but the Eldest Prince did not follow the rules, so he just called someone: "Send the Eldest Prince to the last small courtyard."

"Wait..." The eldest prince looked at Shen Qing now, and said with a smile: "I'll tell you another secret, I'll stay here instead. I promise, I will never talk to her, I just want to see her." Like admiring the weakest and most beautiful flower in the garden.

Shen Qing also smiled back: "No."

"Xuanyuanli..." Seeing that Shen Qing was still unmoved, the eldest prince raised his eyebrows straightly: "Since I can find this place, won't others find it?"

"Because it's you, you're still alive." Shen Qing said coolly, this place is not a hidden place, you can find it naturally, but at least you must be able to come in alive.

"You let me in, why are you so worried about me." The eldest prince said with a smile.

Shen Qing glanced at him lightly: "Eldest Prince, I really want to think about it. I let you in, or rescued you." Being driven all over the street by the emperor's spies, if it wasn't for the fact that he had given a few secrets On, she won't interfere.

The eldest prince sighed: "Okay, I owe you, then let me tell you, there is someone you most want to see in the Nanzhao mission this time." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and walked away obediently.

Shen Qing stood there, took a deep breath, and then turned to look at the lake. Linger and Suqiu had already gone to hold the pink lotus bud by the lake.

There will be the person she most wants to see in the Nanzhao Mission, who is it?Xuanyuanli, or Ji Wuyou?

Time passed day by day, when the Nanzhao Mission came to Beijing, Shen Qing still knew about it, but she didn't find her by herself, but she came to find herself.

In the morning, Shen Qing received the news from the Huainan Prince's Mansion that Ji Wuhuan was ill, and she hurried back with a seven-month pregnant belly. When the time came, Ji Wuhuan was indeed ill, and her face looked extremely abnormal Followed by the third wife's daughter Yuanrou.

When Yuan Rou saw Shen Qing, she timidly stepped forward and greeted her with a courtesy: "Sister."

Shen Qing's palms tightened slightly: "Sister Rou'er, did she remember wrongly?"

Yuan Rou turned pale, and hurriedly said: "Rou'er is now the prince's side concubine..."

Shen Qing went to see Ji Wuhuan, but his brows were slightly blue, obviously he hadn't slept for several days.

Yuan Ye was very worried as he followed, after all, Shen Qing was still pregnant with her child.

But to everyone's surprise, Shen Qing didn't say anything, but stepped forward to look at Ji Wuhuan, and said softly, "Is your lord okay?"

Ji Wuhuan opened her eyes and looked at Shen Qing, her eyes were slightly red.

"Sister, my lord, she..."

"Go down." Shen Qing said coldly.

Yuan Rou's face turned pale, and tears filled her eyes: "Sister, the emperor ordered Rou'er to serve..."

"I'll say it again, get off!" Shen Qing lost her temper, and turned her head to look at her coldly. Now she just thinks that her kindness to their mother and daughter has been fed to the dogs.

Yuan Rou was weak and had always been a little afraid of Shen Qing. After being scolded by her, she burst into tears and went to see Ji Wuhuan as if asking for help. Qing laughed: "Qing'er, come here."

The stone in Shen Qing's heart finally fell to the ground, Yuan also looked at the maids on both sides, and the maids understood, so she came forward and 'invited' Yuan Rou down.

"What's wrong?" Shen Qing asked after there was no one in the room.

"The emperor has to put someone by my side before he can rest assured." Ji Wuhuan paused: "It's also to create a rift between you and me. He knows your true identity, so he is not only afraid of me, but also worried about you."

Shen Qing knew this would happen a long time ago: "Has Dayan's people arrived yet?"

"Something happened halfway, and it hasn't arrived yet." Ji Wuhuan looked at Shen Qing's stomach, and raised her hand to hold her in his arms: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. I called you back today. I originally wanted to act A scene will reassure the emperor, but I still can't bear to let you be wronged."

Shen Qing pressed against his face, felt the temperature on his face, smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, with you here, I don't worry about anything."

When Ji Wuhuan heard the words, she smiled lightly: "The emperor is afraid of the queen mother and worried that she will make a comeback, so he is eager to take back the power. He will not give up until he achieves his goal."

"Is he not afraid of causing Nanzhao and Dayan to conspire to murder?" Shen Qing asked again.

Ji Wuhuan stroked her belly slowly: "Since he joined the army, he has been almost smooth sailing, so this has made him very confident in his own strength. He thinks he can wipe out Nanzhao and Dayan. Now most people are willing I surrendered, but the military power in my hand cannot be handed over to him, once the military power in my hand is gone, we will be the first people he wants to get rid of."

Shen Qing understands this truth, but now she seems to be in a dilemma.

If he doesn't hand over the military power, Ji Yun won't let it go, but if he does, he will die.

Ji Wuhuan looked at her in his arms, and raised her thin lips: "Don't worry, I will take care of everything, but there may be more things like Yunrou in the future, Qinger, will you believe me?"

"Naturally." Shen Qing responded directly, if she didn't believe him, she wouldn't have just reprimanded Yuan Rou directly.

"Well, you can rest assured to raise your baby." Ji Wuhuan seemed to have made a decision, looking at the woman in her arms, her heart was filled with happiness.

Shen Qing only came back and stayed for a while before leaving. The people squatting outside Huainan Prince's Mansion followed him all the way, but they couldn't find out where they went.

Ji Yun looked at the people standing in the hall, a little funny: "I never thought you would dare to come back."

"The fourth younger brother ascends the throne, and the older sister will naturally come back to congratulate her." The woman, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, is dignified and beautiful. She is wearing a long dark blue dress and standing with a smile on her highness's face. Even though she is still beautiful in her 20s, time has passed by her. There were traces in his eyes, and those calculations could not be covered up.

Ji Yun sneered: "You won't come back to take away my country and give it to your lover. After all, you even killed your own husband. Ji Wuyou, I really don't understand why you have already become a lover." Now that you are a high-ranking queen, why do you want to turn yourself into such a down-and-out woman?"

Hearing the word 'woman', Ji Wuyou looked a little cold, and raised his chin slightly: "The new emperor will live longer than before, why not do it?"

The corners of Ji Yun's mouth twitched up ironically. He knew that women were only for the word 'love'.

"What do you want to do when you come back this time?" Ji Yun leaned back slightly, and he had stopped talking to her.

Ji Wuyou saw it naturally, and turned around to take out a palm-sized square box. The box was opened, and what lay inside was a jade pendant with dragon patterns: "This is my sincerity."

Ji Yun recognized this jade, which belonged to the Nanzhao royal family, but she didn't understand Ji Wuyou's intention, so she only squinted her eyes and looked at her: "What's the meaning?"

Ji Wuyou smiled: "Nanzhao Dongyang County King is the most heroic general in Nanzhao. This jade was given to Dongyang King by my king. Now this jade is presented to the emperor. I am willing to offer the only daughter of Dongyang County King. Establish permanent friendly relations between the two countries."

Ji Yun frowned slightly, the Duke of Dongyang naturally knew that his only daughter was originally going to marry Xuanyuanli.

Thinking of this, Ji Yun laughed: "Since that's the case, how about I also give King Nanzhao a new queen?"

Ji Wuyou looked up at Ji Yun, and smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, Nanzhao really wants to make friends with Wei."

"Naturally, Great Wei really wants to make friends with Nanzhao. It's settled like this. I will marry the daughter of the king of Dongyang County as my concubine. At the same time, I will also marry the tenth princess to the king of Nanzhao as the queen." Ji Wei was originally the former emperor. After so many things happened in the pre-determined marriage, it is really appropriate to give it to Xuanyuanli.

Ji Yun sneered, looked at Ji Wuyou's tightly tightened hands, and said, "Why, do you think it's inappropriate? Or is it that King Nanzhao has no intention of making friends with me, Great Wei? If that's the case, then that's all."

Ji Wuyou lowered her eyes knowingly; "As a request for marriage, my king hopes that the emperor can assist us in capturing the original Meiyun Pavilion master, Shen Qing."

Ji Yun naturally knew who Shen Qing was, but he still didn't dare to touch Ji Wuhuan, so he could only think of other ways.

"Of course I will arrest this person." Ji Yun said lightly.

The corner of Ji Wuyou's mouth slightly raised: "We will catch them ourselves, as long as the emperor agrees, we can take them away after we catch them."

Ji Yun raised her eyebrows: "Of course, but before I use her to take down Ji Wuhuan."

Naturally, Ji Wuyou had no objection, and the two had reached a consensus.

Ji Yun got the jade pendant sent by Ji Wuhuan, and immediately sent a message to Ji Rui, asking him to handle the marriage personally.

When Shen Qing saw Ji Rui again, he was a lot haggard, but all the news from the palace was brought.

Di Yun stood aside and said, "Master, let's go down and make arrangements."

Shen Qing looked at her stomach and nodded: "Hurry up."

"Yes!" Di Yun nodded and left.

Ji Rui looked at Shen Qing who was sitting under the shade of the tree, stepped forward to sit down, and poured himself a cup of tea: "What are you arranging?"

Shen Qing looked at him indifferently: "What are you worried about?"

Ji Rui told about Zhang Xiaofang, but felt uncomfortable: "I still couldn't save her."

"Save her?" Shen Qing smiled and shook her head, she had already seen that the two of them were lovers and concubines, and the only way to save each other was to get married.

"When is the marriage arranged?"

"Two months later." Ji Rui raised his eyes to look at the scenery, but the figure of the eldest prince suddenly came into view, and he just stood in the distance wearing a cloak, looking straight at the girl in white who was boating on the lake: "He Why are you here too?"

"Our last amulet." Shen Qing smiled, it is impossible for the empress to let it go so easily, and if something happens, the eldest prince will definitely not be useless.

But the eldest prince is also willing to stay, so Shen Qing has no psychological burden.

"It's only two months." Shen Qing murmured.

Ji Rui was puzzled: "It's only two months."

"Ji Wuyou." Shen Qing said, two months was enough for Xuanyuanli to make arrangements, including lobbying Dayan.

"Ji Wuyou is back?" Ji Rui was puzzled. He hadn't heard about Ji Wuyou. Didn't she disappear?

"Let's prepare for the wedding when we go back." Shen Qing said with a smile, this marriage is absolutely impossible, either Xuanyuanli will use the sending team to directly start trouble, or use the pretense of getting married to join hands with Dayan.

Ji Rui didn't mind seeing that she insisted on showing off, so he patted his clothes and got up: "The emperor has stuffed several women in the Huainan palace again, are you not worried?"

"Worried? Are you worried that those girls are not doing well?" Shen Qing lightly took a sip of the hot white water in his hand.

Ji Rui looked at her and laughed helplessly: "You and Wuhuan are really a match made in heaven." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and left.

Suqiu came over and passed the message from Xia Rao: "Xuanyuanli has secretly gone to Dayan."

"En." Shen Qing had already guessed it just now, so she wasn't too surprised.

But Suqiu said with a smile: "He is so courageous that he dared to go there himself."

"At this moment, Dongyang County King's army is about to guard the border of Dayan. He will be fine. How can a person like Xuanyuanli put himself in danger." Shen Qing sighed lightly, thinking of Di Yun, she only hoped that he would It would be good if the news could be sent to Dayan Palace before Xuanyuanli arrived. If Dayan knew Xuanyuanli's ambition to annex the Three Kingdoms, maybe he would not cooperate with him so soon.

She looked down at her stomach and said, "Have you found Ji Wuyou's location?"

"In the former palace." Su Qiu nodded.

"En." Shen Qing thought of the killing in Meiyun Pavilion, and said lightly: "Kill."

Su Qiu's heart skipped a beat, this was the first time Shen Qing issued a killing order in such a long time.

"In case the emperor is there..."

"He didn't intend to let me go, so why should I hide it?" Shen Qing smiled, barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes.

Suqiu nodded, looked at Linger who was still playing in the water, and slightly raised the corner of her mouth: "Miss Linger is the best, innocent and carefree."

Shen Qing looked back, and smiled lightly, but the eldest prince's eyes on Ling'er became deeper and deeper.

The capital was peaceful for a few days, but suddenly a fire erupted in a secret palace on the outskirts of the city. The palace people in the palace were all led to a certain corner by an unfamiliar maid, and barely escaped the catastrophe, but Ji Wuyou was trapped in the into the fire.

"Long time no see?" Di Yun took the knife himself, and Su Qiu was waiting outside the palace because of his legs and feet.

Ji Wuyou knew that Shen Qing would not let her go, so she just calmly pulled out the dagger in her hand: "You can't kill me."

Di Yun sneered, his eyes full of murderous intent: "Then let's try." After that, he mentioned stabbing.

Ji Wuyou knows kung fu, no, she's just a three-legged cat, but after staying in Nanzhao for so long, she has learned to use poison, but Shen Qing has long been a master of poison.

Di Yun not only brought a knife this time, but also a murderous poison.

When Ji Wuyou scattered the medicine powder in his hand, Di Yun directly took out a palm-sized jade bottle from his arms, opened the jade bottle, and a pungent smell came: "You kill my brother Meiyunge, Still unrepentant, Ji Wuyou, when you dreamed, didn't you dream of them?"

Ji Wuyou only thought that the poison in his hand was ordinary poison, and smiled indifferently: "Of course not."

Without any hesitation, Di Yun sprinkled the liquid in the jade bottle directly towards Ji Wuyou.She managed to dodge a little, but the liquid fell on her arms and face, quickly eroding her flesh.

"Ah!" Ji Wuyou yelled sadly: "Di Yun, if you dare to kill me, you will definitely regret it!"

"Really?" Di Yun looked at the medicine that the First Prince forcibly stuffed him before leaving, and lightly threw it aside, then raised his sword and stabbed.

"Xia Rao..." Ji Wuyou dodged narrowly, but her face seemed to have been gouged out, making her in agony: "If you kill me, Xia Rao will have to be buried with her, do you want another one? "

Di Yun hesitated, but the firefighters outside had already arrived.

Ji Wuyou shouted: "Assassin, catch him!"

Regardless of the fire, everyone rushed to rescue Ji Wuyou.

Seeing that he had missed the opportunity, Di Yun gave himself a hard hammer before jumping out from the rear window, quickly got into the carriage and left.

Suqiu thought she had succeeded, her eyes were slightly red: "Now I can explain to my brother who died."

Di Yun's face became tense, and he slammed his head again fiercely.

"what happened?"

"Not dead." Di Yun told what happened just now, and Su Qiu's face sank.

When the two returned to the small courtyard, Shen Qing had already rested, but the eldest prince came over: "Have you used the medicine?"

Di Yun kept his face sullen and said nothing, the eldest prince smiled and whispered, "That medicine is a good thing, I'll let you sprinkle a drop, what about the rest?"

Di Yun gritted his teeth slightly: "It's all gone."

"Scattered all? Tsk tsk..." The First Prince shook his head: "That medicine is like a bug that eats people, but it will eat up people bit by bit."

"Really?" Di Yun asked hurriedly.

The eldest prince raised his eyebrows slightly, and without speaking, he looked at the girl walking by the lake, wrapped the cloak tightly around him, and left.

Suqiu looked at Di Yun: "Forget it, you go and watch first to see if there is any movement. Now that the hornet's nest is stabbed, the hornet is not dead, so beware of her counterattack."

"Master has already thought about it in advance. We have already changed the original stronghold. It will not be a matter of time if she wants to counterattack." Di Yun is relieved.

Su Qiu then nodded and went to look for Shen Qing.

Shen Qing's body is heavy now, and she feels that she doesn't get enough sleep all day long, and when it gets dark, she can't bear to go to sleep no matter what.

She is now more than eight months old and may give birth at any time, so Suqiu has been very careful.

As soon as she left the house, she saw someone standing in the yard, she was relieved when she saw that it was Ji Wuhuan, and said in a low voice, "Why is the lord here?"

With a cold face, Ji Wuhuan looked at Suqiu with sharp eyes, waved at her, and walked straight in.

Suqiu felt that he was a bit strange, but no outsiders here knew about it, so she didn't doubt much, and obediently left the yard.

When Ji Wuhuan entered the room, she saw a woman curled up on the bed sleeping peacefully with a big belly, and suddenly there was a dagger in her hand.The dagger was glowing with a faint cold light, as he took a step forward, the cold air in the room seemed to increase, and the candles in the room flickered accordingly.

When he walked to the bedside, he looked at her fair and delicate neck, his eyes were cold, the corners of his mouth were raised coldly, he raised his hand, and the dagger stabbed towards her neck.

At this moment, Suqiu just came out of the yard, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt strange, when she saw the eldest prince squatting to guard Linger, she couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Eldest prince, did you see the prince just now?"

"Ji Wuhuan?" The eldest prince lightly raised his lips: "He is being stared at by my good fourth brother and queen mother, do you think he can come here?"

Su Qiu was slightly stunned: "But I just saw the prince in Wangfei's courtyard, I just thought he was a little strange today..."

Before Suqiu could finish her sentence, she recalled Nanzhao's unique disguise technique, so she raised her heart, lifted her skirt and ran towards Shen Qing's room.

Ling'er heard the sound, turned around hurriedly, felt unsteady on her feet but let out a soft cry, and fell directly into the lake.

The eldest prince watched, and quickly stepped forward to hold her little hand, and she turned around and fell into his arms.

It's okay, it's okay, she didn't fall into the lake, with such a frail body, she might lose her life if she catches the wind and cold.

Ling'er noticed the slightly larger palm on her hand and the scent of someone she didn't know well, paused, and looked in the direction of the eldest prince: "Thank you."

The first prince looked at the shocked person in his arms, and he was stunned, as if he almost forgot to breathe, for fear that if he got stronger, he would crush her to pieces.

The nanny hurried over, the eldest prince put the person away, lightly raised the corners of his lips, and silently said 'you're welcome', looked at the direction Su Qiu was leaving, and left quickly.

Ling'er looked in his direction and asked softly, "What's your name?"

The eldest prince paused, looked at the nanny, who hurriedly smiled and said, "It's Miss Suqiu, she has something urgent to leave."

"Oh." Ling'er knew that Mammy was lying, but she was sensible and didn't ask any more questions, and smiled in the direction of the eldest prince.

The eldest prince also raised the corners of his slightly white lips, and chased after Su Qiu.

In the room, when the dagger was about to fall on Shen Qing's neck, she suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed the hand of the visitor: "You are finally here."
