royal girl

Chapter 263 Dong Yunxuan's Marriage
"It is said that Princess Xiao'an wants to see Sister Zhao."

This excuse is really...

"Princess Xiao'an is only so old that she knows she wants to play with Sister Zhao?" Ji Qiyu was displeased.

Huiyu tidied up her clothes, embraced Sister Zhao who was playing on the couch, and said in a low voice, "I reckon it has something to do with what happened last time. King Anding was able to put eyeliner in the capital. There must be someone in the harem. You The investigation of the case is carried out in Kyoto, and the concubines in the harem are out of your hands."

Indeed, the emperor just arrested and killed all the people of King Anding of Kyoto.However, there has been no action in the harem, but he is still the boss who is not happy to let Huiyu enter the palace at this time.

Even though he was unwilling, he couldn't resist the order, so Ji Qiyu had no choice but to personally escort the two of them into the palace.At the gate of the palace, they ran into King Ning who had just come out of the palace, and they bumped into each other within two strokes.

"Second brother."

"Fourth brother."

"I've seen the prince." Huiyu and the other two greeted each other, then bowed their knees with the child in their arms.

"Brothers and sisters are welcome, there is no need to be polite." Ji Fuyan swept Huiyu's eyes, and then moved away as if nothing had happened. "Why is sister Zhao here?" He asked casually with a smile.

"Princess Xiao'an wants to see Sister Zhao, and Concubine Han asked me to bring the child into the palace." Hui Yu lowered her head and replied, then turned to look at Ji Qiyu, "Then I'll go in first."

"Walk carefully, I'm here waiting for you."

Huiyu nodded, saluted Ji Fuyan again, and carried the child into the palace with the palace servants who had already been waiting.

In front of the palace gate, only Ji Fuyan and Ji Qiyu were left, and the two brothers seldom met alone by chance like this.

"In the past few days, everyone in the capital has known the majesty of the fourth brother. Congratulations to the fourth brother." Ji Fuyan said with a smile, the smile on his face was as warm as ever.

"But I did it according to my orders, my second brother deserves it." Ji Qiyu said.

Hearing Ji Qiyu's answer was as indifferent as ever, Ji Fuyan knew his temper and was not annoyed, turned his back and looked at the wide square, "Father is paying more and more attention to fourth younger brother, it's really a happy event."

Ji Qiyu also turned around, the sunlight passed through the broken gold scattered on the floor of the colorful glazed tiles, her eyes looked ahead, "Bringing a crime of bloodthirsty, second brother thinks it's a good thing?"

The smile on King Ning's face remained undiminished, "Fourth brother may have misunderstood. After all, among so many of our sons, fourth brother is the first person who can command the imperial guards. No one can compare to this honor."

"It's just through my hands, and it's not true that the military power was given to me, and I still have a bloodthirsty stain on my back. If the second brother liked it, he should have recommended himself for this job in front of the emperor."

"Who dares to comment on what my father does. I don't even have the chance to recommend myself. I can't compare to my fourth brother who wins my father's favor."

"Next time if something like this happens, I will remember to speak well for my second brother in front of the emperor."

Ji Fuyan looked at Ji Qiyu, "That's unnecessary, thank you for your kindness, I've never liked these kind of things. I still have something to do, let's go first."

"Second brother, whatever you want." Ji Qiyu said.

Ji Fuyan nodded to him, and then strode away.

As soon as Ji Fuyan left, Jiang Qing popped up suddenly, stood beside Ji Qiyu and said in a low voice: "Prince Ning was summoned into the palace by Concubine De, and stayed in the palace for about an hour without seeing the emperor."

Ji Qiyu nodded, "Did Tan Yang look for you?"

Jiang Qing just laughed, nodded and said, "I think our Imperial Forest Army Commander is really an interesting person."

"Oh?" Ji Qiyu snorted softly.

Knowing that his master was a man of few words, Jiang Qing didn't dare to play tricks, and said directly: "Although I was ordered by the emperor to entrust the imperial guards, this Master Tan also hid too quickly. I At that time, I thought this was a smart man, knowing that this trip was not a good one, he just shrank his neck and kept his ears shut. Now that the matter is over, he came to make friends with me again, isn't he a smart man?"

"I also know how to make friends with you."

"It can be seen that I dare not offend you, my lord." Jiang Qing looked into the distance with a half-smile, "But a person who is too smart and cunning is always unbelievable."

"Tan Yang, do you think you can't hand him over?"

"It can't be said that it can't be handed over, but it is a person who is loyal to the emperor after all, so he should be cautious." Jiang Qing said.

"Then let's do it first."

How is this?Jiang Qing frowned, looked at Ji Qiyu and said, "What does the lord mean, hang him first?"

"Hmph! Someone is hanging on to you!"

Jiang Qing: ...

"Tan Yang has been with the emperor for so many years, and he is highly regarded. He is not the kind of person who is easy to fool. You have a good mind." Just seeing that he didn't know anything, he knew to hide first. How could he hide beautifully? It is also a skill not to attract people's suspicion.

"Yes, my subordinates know." Jiang Qing said solemnly, "Master Tan sold me something, it's about hunting."

The hunting trip is imminent, and it is always good to know more news.

"What did you say?"

"It's not the imperial guards who are escorting them, but the Heluo camp guards."

Ji Qiyu was taken aback, then turned to look at Jiang Qing.

Jiang Qing scratched her head, "This subordinate doesn't know what Tan Yang's plan is to reveal such important news."

The emperor did not use the imperial guards to escort but used the Heluo camp guards. It seems that after the imperial guards left the capital, they were worried about the safety of the capital.There is no doubt that Tan Yang disclosed such important news to him in advance because he wanted to sell himself well, but why?

Shi Jianbowen, the commander-in-chief of the Heluo Camp Guards, was not at odds with him. Ji Qiyu half-closed her eyes, then looked at Jiang Qing and said, "Then you stay too."

"Then how?" Jiang Qing was shocked, who would he leave to protect the prince?

"Dong Yuncheng will also stay, and you will be with him at that time." Ji Qiyu stopped Jiang Qing's objection, "Tan Yang trusts you, and you will walk around with him more in the future, don't attract attention."

Hearing that Dong Yuncheng also stayed, Jiang Qing was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "This subordinate obeys, but..."

"No but." Ji Qiyu looked up at the sky, Huiyu had been in for so long, why didn't she come out.

Jiang Qing scratched her head, but still said, "The subordinate will inform Gao Yongyi first, and he will come to you when the time comes."

Ji Qiyu glanced at Jiang Qing, then said slowly, "That's fine."

Jiang Qing just laughed, Gao Yongyi has been raising horses at the border for the past few years, this kid felt very bored when he wrote letters several times, this time there is no need to be bored.

At this time, Huiyu was talking to Xia Yingbai.

The palace people in Mingzi Palace retreated, and the children were also playing in the next room, leaving only the two of them in the room.

"You will be accompanying me during this hunt."

Huiyu was stunned, "Is the news accurate?"

Xia Yingbai frowned lightly, "I dare not say [-]% to [-]%, but it's almost there. Especially this time... There is unrest in the palace, it's better to hide out."

"You will also accompany Yujia?" Huiyu asked in a tone that was not too surprised. It should be reasonable for Concubine Han to go.

"Yeah, if you don't go, why stay in the palace?" Xia Yingbai smiled sarcastically, looked at Huiyu and said, "I've heard some things outside the palace, but I didn't expect that it would involve King Anding."

"That's right." Hui Yu replied, Concubine Han today is no longer the Xia Yingbai she was back then, just looking at how well-informed she is, one can guess that her foundation in the palace should be getting deeper and deeper. "Who in that palace belongs to King Anding?"

Xia Yingbai shook her head, "I don't dare to ask about this, nor do I dare to investigate."

The emperor is investigating this matter, if Xia Yingbai's secret investigation is discovered by the emperor, it is really not a good thing.Huiyu could understand this, but she was always a little uneasy about not knowing the internal response of King Anding, "It would be great if I could know."

"Don't worry, when we come back from outside the Great Wall, it will be clear which one in the palace is bad."

Huiyu was taken aback for a moment, and then understood.Since the emperor didn't want to make a big deal out of it, it would be too shameful for him to be almost assassinated successfully.So the subsequent handling will definitely be very secretive, and Ji Qiyu was pushed out by the emperor to take the lead in matters outside the palace.But the emperor didn't want his sons to see the jokes about the affairs in the palace. He definitely had to watch and deal with them. The best way was to wait until the hunt came back, and the man would be terminally ill and there was no cure for it. The best ending.

"What you said is that I think a little shallower."

"It's because you're overthinking it. It's obvious that the water in the palace is too deep." The sarcasm that Xia Yingbai couldn't hide from the corner of her mouth showed again, "Furthermore, even if someone in the palace is really bad, it's still I don’t think it’s true or not.”

Even if someone died in the palace, it may not be the person who colluded with King Anding. What does Xia Yingbai mean by saying this?But going deeper and saying that Huiyu can't ask Xia Yingbai, she must not dare to say it. There is no evidence, how can she speak casually.

"Have you reported what happened that day?"

"I don't want to say it, but the emperor seems to be aware of it. How can I wait until the emperor comes to ask, I can only obediently please first."

With such a sour tone, Huiyu couldn't help laughing.

Xia Ying glanced at her in vain, and sighed, "I'm comfortable talking to you, it's not like others are looking at my current scenery, full of flattery, and every word of flattery is true."

Giving charcoal in the snow is always different from icing on the cake.

"If even I alienate you and flatter you, if you really let down the love of your boudoir, then I would be really stupid."

Xia Yingbai just smiled, "Yes, it should be like this. It would be great if we can keep doing this."

"You don't change, I don't change, this ideal can always be realized."

"Waiting to change the old heart, but the old heart is easy to change. I only hope that you and I can always be the same."

The desolation in these words made Huiyu feel unbearable. The life in the palace had already polished the former Xia Yingbai into the current concubine Han.Seeing that Concubine Han still has the sharpness of the past, but Huiyu can see that under this sharpness there is also her own tact, and it is not easy to come to the palace to seek life.

"It will be the same as before. Just in this hunting trip, you and I can have a good time."

Speaking of this, Xia Yingbai became happy again, and told Huiyu to make a horse riding outfit. When the time came, she would ride a horse, and asked Huiyu about the scenery outside the Great Wall. The two chatted for a long time, and Huiyu carried the child out of the palace. .

Not long after Huiyu left, the emperor arrived. Xia Yingbai responded immediately, and said with a smile, "Xiao'an is so happy to see Sister Zhao. I haven't made a fuss after playing for a long time." After saying this, Fu Watching the emperor sit down on the big couch, he continued, "I see that Princess Jing is quite haggard, even though the face can't be covered by powder."

The emperor just took a look at Xia Yingbai, "Knowing that you have a good relationship, I will take the opportunity to show her credit."

"Look at what you said, I'm not showing merit, I just tell the truth. If the emperor doesn't like to hear it, then the concubine just don't say anything." Xia Yingbai turned around and went straight to the tea room to make tea herself, saying Not mentioning the turmoil of the past few days, he said with a smile: "I know Princess Jing can ride a horse, but I asked her to teach me when the time comes. You promised, and you can't go back on your word."

"I'm as good as I am, June Tian's face is like yours, it changes as soon as it changes." The emperor was inexplicably relaxed at Xia Yingbai's place, and he didn't say a few words, he just felt like he entered the room His back, which was still tense when he was young, has already relaxed on the soft pillow that Concubine Han gave him.

Sitting opposite the emperor, Xia Yingbai didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the sage's words, only a villain and a woman would be difficult to raise. I'm just a sage's word, and you still come to bury me."

The emperor just laughed, watching Xia Yingbai keep teasing him, he knew in his heart that she must have been shocked by the poisoning, seeing that he was in a bad mood and trying to make himself happy, even her own face Are willing to take it down.Across the kang table, he held Xia Yingbai's jade hand on it, and said in a low voice, "I'm really exhausted these days, did it scare you?"

"If I'm so useless, I'll be scared by a small thing, how can I be worthy of standing by your side. I'm not afraid, I just... feel distressed." Xia Yingbai walked around the table and fell into the emperor's arms, "I would rather That cup of tea was placed in front of me, it’s better than having nightmares every night and not being able to sleep peacefully.”

The emperor was silent, looked down at Concubine Han's red eyes, patted her hand on the back, and said after a long time: "At that time, why were you so bold to believe what Concubine Jing said?" If someone deliberately set a trap, she Who will know the result of jumping down, even the emperor himself doesn't know what he will do.

Concubine Han laughed, stretched out her index finger to poke the emperor's chest, and said word by word: "If even she wants to use me, what's the use of my eyes. Princess Jing has an aloof personality but doesn't show it." In fact, only those who have a close relationship with her can know the hardships she has suffered and know her pride. She disdains to do such despicable things, if she plots against someone..." She laughed as she spoke.

"How?" The emperor was also aroused by her words and asked.

"It must be. Hit it back in a fair and honest way. She will feel that her hands are dirty after using this kind of shady trick."

The emperor was speechless for a while, looking at the concubine Ai who was smiling briskly, he felt that this was too much praise.However, during this hunting trip, the emperor will soon know that Xia Yingbai's words are sometimes true.

The bloody turmoil in Beijing was soon overshadowed by the emperor's siege. Su Wang and Ning Wang stayed and supervised the country at the same time. King Jin, King Jing, King Huai, King Yi, and King Jia accompanied him. The list also came out, and Beijing was busy preparing for the trip for a while.

Huiyu was also very busy in the palace, and the royal driver's trip was very ostentatious. In the past, he would only arrive at the border gate in [-] days, but now a large group of people rushed forward and back, but the road might be delayed for more than a month.There are a lot of things to prepare, clothes, medicinal materials, food on the road... just the clothes that need to be brought, Huiyu's own inner clothes, outerwear, shoes, socks and jewelry, etc. Add up and assemble more than [-] The cage, plus Ji Qiyu's, seeing so many things, Huiyu wondered if it might be a big deal.

Sister Zhao's son, Huiyu, would definitely not take it with her. If she had a cold and the current medical conditions, she would send the child to Mrs. Dong Er.It happened that Dong Yunji and his wife went to Jiangsu, and Mr. Dong Er is not an official, so he should help her take care of the children when he has nothing to do at home.And take care of sister Zhao's usual things, and leave Nanny You to follow Concubine Yang to take care of the family affairs.Mother Zhong took Sister Zhao's nanny and others to live directly in Dong's Mansion, so she could feel at ease with Mother Zhong in Huiyu.Bingying wanted to follow her on the road, so Bingrui stayed at home, and it would be difficult to eat and walk on the road. She didn't want to wrong herself when she got to the border, so it was better for the cook to bring his own food.

After everything was arranged, Huiyu personally carried Sister Zhao and took her belongings to the Dong Mansion.Mrs. Dong Er agreed immediately, and she was so happy that even Mr. Dong Er laughed very happily. By the way, Mrs. Dong Er said something. Dong Yunxuan was about to get married, so Huiyu asked who the girl was from. of.
