Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 764
In the distance, Yu Daoxiang, dressed as a maid Lan'er, whispered: "Although you have no chance to use your mind-controlling technique now, your mind-obsessing technique has already reached perfection, and with just a few words, you will be able to moisten things silently and calm down the savage Zhang Zhiruo." Became a desperate lunatic. Hmm... You really are quite charming, Xiao Zhen who only saw you once on the road came again."

After a few breaths, Xiao Zhen, the younger brother of Empress Dowager Xiao with a large group of guards and the son of Xiao Chengtian, the king of the North Court, stopped in front of Hou Chenxi. It was similar to the conversation between Hou Chenxi and Yelu Talu just now. Said: "Miss Hou is very familiar with King Yan?"

Hou Chenxi said: "Minnv has never seen His Royal Highness Yan Wang before, but just now Minnv wanted to go to the creek over there to play, and Yan Wang suddenly appeared, wanting to get acquainted with Minnv."

...

...

Zhang Zhiruo watched Hou Chenxi and Xiao Zhen chatting and laughing from a distance, and hated Hou Chenxi even more in her heart. She came outside Mingshu Concubine's tent and walked around twice, thinking that His Royal Highness King Yan is now interested in that bitch, if Let her marry His Royal Highness King Yan first, and I will have no hope anymore!She, Zhang Zhiruo, is both talented and beautiful, how could she lose to such a humble person!But now, how can we recover the disadvantages?After thinking about it, she thought of Concubine Ming Shu.She is Yelu Talu's biological mother, and Yelu Talu has always listened to her very much. If she reveals everything in front of her, she will definitely stop Yelu Talu from marrying such a lowly woman!After making up her mind, she walked into the tent, but was stopped by the maidservant at the door: "Miss Zhang, the empress was summoned by the queen mother, and she is not in the tent now." The maidservant said respectfully.

Zhang Zhiruo's face froze, she clearly heard voices from the tent, why did Concubine Ming Shu refuse to see her?With her IQ, how could she think that a mere Han official, even the right prime minister of the Beifu, would look up to her if Empress Dowager Xiao didn't value her?It's just that Mrs. Zhang doesn't know the depth of it, and even the daughter she educated doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth.

Zhang Zhiruo clenched her lips, her eyes flickered coldly, Concubine Ming Shu refused to see her, what should she do?

She returned to her tent angrily, and when she saw Mrs. Zhang, she threw herself into her arms.

"Mother, you must help your daughter this time, as long as mother helps your daughter this time, your daughter will definitely win the favor of His Royal Highness King Yan!"

Mrs. Zhang was taken aback by Zhang Zhiruo's crazy look, quickly waved away the servants in the tent, helped her up, and said, "Zhiruo, what's wrong with you, what happened?"

Zhang Zhiruo clenched her lips, her face was pale, her eyes were bloodshot, she looked scary, and cried, "Mother, you must help my daughter kill Hou Chenxi!"

Zhang's expression was startled, and said: "Be quiet, don't worry, tell me what happened?"

Zhang Zhiruo told Mrs. Zhang everything that happened today, and Mrs. Zhang frowned when she heard this.

"You mean, after Hou Chenxi met His Highness King Yan, Xiao Zhen came to see her again, talking and laughing?" Mrs. Zhang has rich experience in intrigue, and she grasped the key points keenly.

"Yes, Xiao Zhen also talked and laughed with Hou Chenxi, Hou Chenxi is really a vixen, really shameless!" Zhang Zhiruo had a look of hatred.

Mrs. Zhang thought for a while, laughed, and said, "In this way, mother can help you."

"Mother, what can you do? I originally wanted Concubine Mingshu to stop His Royal Highness King Yan and teach Hou Chenxi a lesson, but I didn't expect that she would refuse to see me at all! She clearly looks down on our family!" Zhang Zhiruo looked down. I was wronged, but it was already pear blossoms and rain, and I was crying.

Mrs. Zhang snorted coldly: "Although your father is a civil servant of the second rank, the Liao Kingdom is ruled by the Khitan people after all. The Khitan people always look down on us Han people. However, Concubine Ming Shu can't do it, and there is Xiao Zhen's mother , where is the princess of the King of the North Courtyard!"

Xiao Zhen's mother?Zhang Zhiruo frowned suspiciously.

Mrs. Zhang smiled: "Xiao Zhen is the only son of the Great Princess of the North Court. The King of the North Court has seven sons. Who can succeed Xiao Tiancheng as the King of the North Court? The competition for the seven sons is fierce. The Queen of the North Court has high hopes for Xiao Zhen. Gao, I want Xiao Zhen to get a lot of help through the marriage and help him succeed the king of the North Courtyard, do you think he will just watch Xiao Zhen fall in love with Hou Chenxi?"

"But…"

"Zhiruo, you have grown up too, you should think about things before you do them. After all, Hou Chenxi has a fourth-rank father. If we do things ourselves, it will inevitably cause trouble for the upper body. We can do it." If the person is replaced by the Great Princess of the North Courtyard, our mother and daughter will not be blamed for this matter!" Mrs. Zhang reminded, then quickly got up and said, "Let's go, come with me to meet the Great Princess of the North Courtyard."

...

...

In the tents of 'Hou Chenxi' and 'Lan'er', Yu Daoxiang said: "Shangguan Bingyun! Are you sure that Zhang Zhiruo's mother will use the hands of the North Court Princess to deal with you?"

Shangguan Bingyun said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, that Zhang's personality as a servant has been investigated clearly, and she also knows that she has an old relationship with the Great Princess of the North Courtyard. If there is no accident, she will definitely take Zhang Zhiruo to find Xiao Zhen's mother."

Sure enough, an hour later, an arrogant maid came to Hou Chenxi's tent and said, "Miss Hou, right! The princess wants to see you, come with me!"

Shangguan Bingyun looked puzzled and said: "Which princess is it?"

The maid said angrily: "My master is the king of the North Courtyard."

Shangguan Bingyun looked surprised, and said: "It turns out to be the Great Princess of the North Courtyard, Rongmin girl washes up."

The maid said impatiently: "No need, the Great Princess of the North Courtyard is waiting."

Shangguan Bingyun stood up and said, "If that's the case, please lead the way."

Standing in front of the tent of the Great Princess in the North Courtyard, Shangguan Bingyun stopped in his tracks. An older nun stood at the door. Seeing Shangguan Bingyun approaching, his cold and critical eyes stayed on her for a moment before saying, : "The princess is waiting, go in quickly."

Seeing the condescending tone of the maidservant and the nanny, Shangguan Bingyun already knew that the plan was going well.Because the princess of the North Courtyard has always been virtuous and virtuous, she would indulge the female officials around her to show such a haughty look, obviously she has preconceived ideas, and this is exactly what Shangguan Bingyun needs.

Shangguan Bingyun was thinking about how he would provoke the Queen of the North Court to kill him, and walked straight in.

The interior of the tent was arranged like a private room, a female official raised layers of beaded curtains, and Shangguan Bingyun walked in slowly with his eyes lowered.The incense was lit inside, solemn and fragrant. After confirming that the incense was not poisonous, Shangguan Bingyun held his breath for a while, and saluted politely: "Greetings to the princess."

There was silence in the tent for a long time, Shangguan Bingyun was so calm, after an unknown amount of time, a voice rang out: "Are you Hou Chenxi, daughter of Hou Wengang?"

"Yes." Shangguan Bingyun replied lightly.

"Looked up!"

Shangguan Bingyun slowly raised his head.The Great Princess of the North Courtyard is leaning on the chaise longue, with a graceful figure, and her cyan skirt hangs down to the ground. She is almost 40 years old, and she is still very beautiful. Her eyebrows are as delicate as ink paintings, and her eyes are full of breathtaking light when they turn. , the light and shadow in the tent outlined her almost perfect profile, with thick eyebrows and eyelashes.It's just that the eyes are cold and scrutinized.She is the birth mother of Empress Dowager Xiao, the true ruler of the Liao Kingdom today, and her status is extremely respected.

When Shangguan Bingyun was looking at her, she was also looking at Hou Chenxi who was dressed by Shangguan Bingyun.

Her eyes were three parts surprised and two parts inquiring, looking at her, and finally heaved a long sigh.

"He was born well, his temperament is very attractive, and he looks like a water lily and hibiscus." She murmured softly, as if talking to herself.Then the Great Princess of the North Courtyard laughed, her tassels swaying on her temples, "It's a pity, your father is a Han official, and he is only a fourth-rank official, and he has no real power."

Shangguan Bingyun's face turned ugly at the right time, but he didn't speak.

The Great Princess of the North Court raised her jaw, stared at Hou Chenxi, and said coldly, "What's the relationship between you and my son Xiao Zhen?"

Shangguan Bingyun raised his face, looked directly at the Great Princess of the North Courtyard, and said indifferently: "Xiao Zhen and I are better friends."

The princess of the North Court originally thought that she was an ordinary woman who climbed dragons and phoenixes, but seeing her answering so quickly and ambiguously, it made her somewhat unable to see through the real intentions of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old Hou Chenxi in front of her.

She asked again: "Are they just ordinary friends? I know my son's character very well. If he hadn't taken a fancy to you, he would never have taken the initiative to find you."

Shangguan Bingyun pretended to be shy, then looked into the eyes of the Great Princess of the North Courtyard, pretended to reply insincerely: "The little prince just admires the women of the people, and has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women."

"At such a young age, I learned to be hypocritical hahaha" the princess of the North Courtyard said, as if thinking of something, her expression turned colder, "However, my son will inherit his father's position as the King of the North Courtyard in the future. It needs the support of many people, and marriage is the best way. After all, your father is a fourth-rank civil servant, and the queen mother values ​​you, and you are my son's favorite. If you are willing to be a concubine, I can help you."

Shangguan Bingyun's face turned pale immediately, and he opened his lips firmly and said: "Princess, a civilian girl is absolutely unwilling to be anyone's concubine!"

The Great Princess of the North Court glanced at her: "What's the matter? Do you still want to be the main concubine?"

At this moment, the atmosphere in the tent was almost stagnant.

Shangguan Bingyun shook his head and said: "A woman who likes Chenxi can only like Chenxi in her life."

The Great Princess of the North Courtyard was completely stunned. Hou Chenxi's face, dressed by Shangguan Bingyun, was half immersed in the light, her brows were as delicate as jade carvings, and her jet-black eyes contained a flickering brilliance, but with an indescribable stubborn and firm.

She's definitely not kidding.

The Great Princess of the North Courtyard was almost speechless for a moment.
