Chapter 114 Entering Lindu
Chapter 114 Entering Lindu
When Song Qinghuan got the news, the calmness in his eyes cracked inch by inch, and a storm arose in his heart.
She never expected that the Cangxie Sword would reappear in this life!
She also heard a lot about the legend of Cang Xie Sword.But I always thought that the so-called legends were just stories passed down from rumors, so how could they come true?But they didn't expect that there really was the Cangxie Sword in this world!
The bottom of the eyes was dark for a moment.
Since the Cangxie Sword was born, the Sword Seizing Conference will be held soon. It seems...the marriage between himself and Shen Chuhan will be postponed again.With a helpless sigh, he looked out the window with cold eyes.
Between her and Shen Chuhan, it was really a disaster.
Laughing at herself, is God punishing her impulsiveness and heartlessness in her previous life?
While thinking up and down, he heard the sound of curtains, turned his head and saw that Shen Xing walked in, and bowed to her, "Your Highness."
Song Qinghuan raised her brows and took a deep breath, "What's wrong?"
"There are people coming from the Xuanshi Hall."
Song Qinghuan's eyes darkened slightly, she brushed her wrinkled dress, her face regained her usual calmness, and said in a flat voice, "Please come in."
Shen Xing saluted and retreated.Soon, a servant in red was brought in.Song Qinghuan took a closer look, and found that it was Xiao Shunzi who had met several times.
"Your Highness, my servant." Xiao Shunzi bowed respectfully to Song Qinghuan.
"Excuse me." Song Qinghuan nodded slightly, and smiled at him, "But Father sent you here?"
Xiao Shunzi responded crisply, "The Emperor asks His Highness to go back to Xuanshi Hall tomorrow morning."
Song Qinghuan drew back her long eyelashes, concealing the darkness in her eyes.
The emperor sent someone to summon her at this time, most likely because of Cang Xiejian's appearance in this world.Slowly raised his eyes, with a smile that was not a smile, "Is the father only summoning me, or are all the other highnesses summoned?"
Xiao Shunzi was also clever, and smiled when he heard this, "Only His Highness has been summoned."
"Understood. You go back and tell your father that I will definitely go to Xuanshi Hall on time tomorrow." Song Qinghuan said with a calm expression.
Xiao Shunzi looked up at her with curiosity.
The news of Cang Xie Sword's reappearance has been widely circulated in the palace, even his little servant knows the pros and cons of it, and he is very frightened.According to the past rules, the princes and concubines of the royal families of various countries will soon rush to the capital of Zhaoguo, and according to the degree of favor of Wuyang Empress, it is natural that they are also included in this list.
In that case, the marriage between Wuyang Diji and Shen Xiang had to be postponed.It can be seen that His Highness's face has not changed in the slightest?
Although Shen Xiang's sudden proposal to marry Wuyang Diji was beyond everyone's expectations, in everyone's eyes, Shen Chuhan was really a one-in-a-hundred-in-a-million husband-in-law candidate in the four kingdoms, just by the reaction of Pingyang Diji.But no matter whether the matter of marrying Prime Minister Shen is settled, or the wedding date of the two is likely to be delayed, His Highness seems to have always been in such a light mood.
Xiao Shunzi was puzzled.
Is His Highness happy or unhappy about marrying Prime Minister Shen?
Song Qinghuan took the teacup from Shen Xing, took a sip leisurely, her eyes seemed to be on the tea in the cup, but she could see the expression on Xiao Shunzi's face.
After all, Xiao Shunzi had only entered the palace not long ago, and all her emotions were written on her face.
With just one glance, Song Qinghuan knew what he was thinking.
There are countless pairs of eyes staring at her in this palace, how can she easily make people guess what is in her heart?As for whether she is willing to marry Shen Chuhan or not, let everyone discuss.The more they talked about it, the more uncomfortable Song Qingyi, who was secretly sad in Zhaohua Palace now, must be.
And she was very happy to see Song Qingyi's distressed and sad appearance.
After drinking a few sips of tea, seeing that Xiao Shunzi was still looking at her, Song Qinghuan pursed her lips, and said in a cool voice, "Xiao Shunzi, do you still have anything to do with me?"
Xiao Shunzi suddenly came back to his senses, his cheeks blushed, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, "No more, no more, this servant will leave, and I will definitely bring His Highness's words with me."
Song Qinghuan gave a light "um", glanced at Shen Xing, "Shen Xing, see off the guests."
Shen Xing responded and invited Xiao Shunzi out of the Xingyue Hall.
The wind blows outside the window, blowing the fragrance of flowers all over the courtyard.It was late spring, and the begonias in the courtyard were in full bloom.
Since Father Huang only summoned her alone tomorrow, he must be talking about the postponement of her and Shen Chuhan's marriage.Although she felt melancholy, she also knew that the birth of Cang Xie Sword was a major event, and the wedding date between her and Shen Chuhan could only be postponed, and there was absolutely no room for change.
However, Emperor Liang now has no heirs, only Yin Qingrong, his younger sister.
Zhaoguo and his party are full of dangers. It is impossible for Yin Zhan to go to Liang in person. The only way is to send Yin Qingrong to represent Liangguo.As far as she knew, Yin Qingrong had a pure and innocent personality, and was always well protected by Yin Zhan, and she was not good at martial arts.
Therefore, Yin Zhan will never rest assured that Yin Qingrong will go to Zhao alone. The most likely way is to send Shen Chuhan to escort him all the way to Lindu.
As long as I can convince my father to allow her to go to Lindu to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, she and Shen Chuhan will be able to meet again in Lindu.Thinking of this, the melancholy in my heart dissipated a little.
The marriage could be postponed, but she couldn't wait to see Shen Chuhan.
The next day.
According to the notification from Xiao Shunzi the day before, Song Qinghuan picked the time, guessing that Emperor Yu would soon come to court, so he took Liuyue Shenxing to Xuanshi Hall.
The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the summer is not yet here, but it is already hot outside.
Liuyue was worried that Song Qinghuan would be exposed to the sun, so she specially brought a green bamboo umbrella to support her, and deliberately chose a cool place to walk, but she didn't feel the heat.
Song Qinghuan raised her eyes inadvertently, and saw the satin umbrella covered with tung oil.
There, a branch of green bamboo is painted, with a clear demeanor.
I suddenly remembered the matter of Shen Chuhan blocking the way in the alley that day. At that time, I just felt that he was a little inexplicable, and I had to let myself agree to help him investigate the case. Now that I think about it, he was clearly jealous at that time, jealous of himself and Su Jing's farewell Meet alone at Qianzhan Pavilion.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
There were many things that he didn't realize at the time, but now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that Shen Chuhan's actions were clearly childish.
He was walking slowly while holding an umbrella, when he suddenly saw Liuyue's footsteps slightly paused beside him.
She glanced sideways and asked lightly, "What's wrong?"
Liu Yue resumed her pace, lowered her voice and whispered in her ear, "Your Highness, the front is Concubine Ning."
Song Qinghuan turned his eyes, looked forward, and saw a group of people walking on the tree-lined path ahead, and the person walking in front surrounded by court ladies was the bright and charming Concubine Ning.
Since Prince Shanglinyuan was assassinated that day, he had recuperated for a long time, and Emperor Yu didn't entrust him with many things, but gave them to Song Xuan or Song Yan as appropriate.Although Song Xuan has been gaining momentum recently, after all, there is no support from her mother's family behind her, and her supporters in the court are still not as good as Song Yan and the prince.Although Concubine Ning Gui and Song Yi were a little afraid of him, the chief competitor was still the crown prince.
And recently, Song Qingyi was grounded. The empress had no time to spare, and was so busy with herself.
The Queen's life was difficult, and Concubine Ning was happy, so looking at her now, her face was radiant and radiant.
Song Qinghuan didn't avoid or dodge, but still walked forward slowly.
The two met on the tree-lined path, and Song Qinghuan greeted Concubine Ning slightly, "Young Concubine."
Concubine Ning Guifei glanced at her, raised her eyebrows slightly, "Yo, I just looked from afar, and with this bamboo umbrella blocking me, I didn't see who it was. This kind of person turned out to be Wuyang."
She pursed her lips and smiled, "Wuyang is getting better and better every day."
She smiled at Yan Yan, as if she was very kind to Song Qinghuan. Seeing Song Qinghuan's expression was calm, she teased, "No wonder Wuyang's skin is as white as jade. It turns out that he always pays attention to sun protection. It seems that this palace also has to ask you a lot." learned."
Song Qinghuan bowed slightly, smiled lightly and said nothing.
Concubine Ning Guifei didn't seem to feel her indifference, she smiled and said, "But Wuyang will soon become a newlywed, so she must take good care of her."
Seeing that she really went around to his marriage with Shen Chuhan, a sneer flashed across Song Qingyi's eyes.
She knew what Concubine Ning Gui was planning,
Because of the outstanding performance of Brother Five in the Shanglinyuan Assassin case, his father has paid more and more attention to him in recent days, faintly threatening the position of the eldest prince.It is well known that I am close to Brother Wuhuang, so Concubine Ning Guifei had a lukewarm attitude when she saw her some time ago.
But her marriage with Shen Chuhan was certain, but Ning Guifei's attitude suddenly changed.
Song Qinghuan's heart was as bright as a mirror.
Originally, Concubine Ning Gui's hatred for her was because she was worried that she would become the strong backing of the fifth emperor brother. After all, it is obvious to all that her father loves her these days.With my own support for Brother Wu Huang, it is not guaranteed that he can really compete with the crown prince and Song Yan.
Of course—
Now his marriage with Shen Chuhan has been decided, and he will soon marry to Liangguo.Once he arrives in Liang Country, what will happen to Yu Country's court and harem, he will be beyond his control, and he will no longer be able to help Fifth Emperor Brother.
Therefore, I am no longer the enemy of Concubine Ning Gui.
That being the case, why should she be an enemy to herself?
Song Qinghuan sneered slightly in his heart.
Concubine Ning Guifei's ability to steer the rudder according to the wind is probably unmatched by anyone in the entire palace.Even the queen has her own arrogance and dignity, and if she hates herself, she always hates herself.Thinking about it this way, it's not a bit frank.
If you ask a person who smiled at you one second, who may stab you in the next second, and a person who may shoot you coldly all the time, who is more disliked?
Song Qinghuan thought, she probably hates both of them!So she is doomed not to be an ally with the Queen or Concubine Ning.
Therefore, Song Qinghuan didn't react much to Concubine Ning's joking words, she just smiled politely and lowered her head in feigned embarrassment.
Concubine Ning finally noticed the indifference on Song Qinghuan's expression, she cursed in her heart, and a stern look appeared in her eyes.
For a moment, he smiled again, "Where is Wuyang going?"
Song Qinghuan raised his eyes, and said in a cool voice without concealing it, "Go to Xuanshi Hall."
A gleam appeared in Ning Guifei's eyes.
She naturally knows about Cang Xie Sword.So, Song Qinghuan is in a hurry to go to the Xuanshi Hall at this time, but in order to go to Zhaoguo to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference?
She was planning in her heart, trying to get some more words out of Song Qinghuan's mouth. After a little thought, she opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Song Qinghuan's cold voice, "Father is still waiting for me in the Xuanshi Palace. If the imperial concubine and empress are not around Wuyang will take his leave first."
Seeing that her words were interrupted, Concubine Ning was displeased for a moment, and then she quickly lowered her eyes to cover it.After she carried Emperor Yu out, Concubine Ning Gui was a smart person, so she couldn't ask any further questions, so she just smiled and said, "It's nothing, Wu Yang can go."
Song Qinghuan gave a soft "um", gave her a blessing, turned around and walked away gracefully.
After taking Liuyue and Chen Xing for another half a stick of incense, the Xuanshi Hall arrived.
Seeing her coming, the servant on duty outside the door saluted and invited her in, but stopped Liu Yue and Shen Xing outside the hall.
Seeing this, Song Qinghuan felt hesitant, and ordered Liuyue and Shenxing to wait at the door, and walked into the Xuanshi Hall without haste.
The interior of the Xuanshi Hall still looks familiar, with the windows wide open and the warm wind blowing in, bringing with it a sense of warmth.The displays and furnishings are resplendent and resplendent, showing the luxury and grandeur of the royal family everywhere.
Song Qinghuan looked around, slightly sighing in his heart.
Starting from Xishu, the number of times she has visited Xuanshidian in the past few months is probably more than the sum of the previous 16 years.Being frequently summoned by the emperor like this, I don't know when it is good and when it is bad.
Emperor Yu was sitting at the top, with a pensive look on his face.Seeing her come in, he looked up and ordered Zhong Huai to give her a seat.
Song Qinghuan saluted and thanked him, smiled and sat down at the bottom, looking up at Emperor Yu.
Emperor Yu stared deeply, his eyes seemed to hide thousands of emotions, and there was a trace of fatigue between his brows and eyes.
Zhong Huai watched from the side, feeling rejoicing in his heart——
Fortunately, Song Qinghuan took back the Qingyuan fruit from Chen Kingdom, which cured the emperor's heart disease.Otherwise, with the recent frequent accidents in Jian'an City, it may be unknown whether the emperor can survive until now.
Emperor Yu probably also thought of Song Qinghuan's achievement of retrieving the Qingyuan fruit for him, his frown was loosened, and his tone was slightly slow, "Wuyang... must have heard about the birth of Cangxie Sword."
Song Qinghuan nodded, her eyes were clear.
"How much does Wu Yang know about Cang Xie Sword?"
Song Qinghuan pondered for a moment, "My son once saw the Cangxie Sword recorded in the ancient history books. I heard that it is the object of the God of War Linyuan. There are rumors that Cangxie appears and the world will be the master."
After saying this, she glanced at Emperor Yu calmly.
Any king has the ambition to dominate the world, and the father is no exception.It's just the disparity between the national power of Yu country and other countries, which makes him dare not act rashly.
But now that the Cangxie sword is released, the four kingdoms are ready to move, and I believe that the father will not be able to sit still.Regardless of whether the legend of the Cangxie Sword is true or not, who would want to miss such a good opportunity right in front of them?
"Then... Wu Yang must have understood the rules of the Sword Seizing Conference."
"Yes."
Emperor Yu was silent for a moment, and then he spoke again, "A letter from Emperor Zhao to me came with him, saying that the Sword Seizing Conference will be held in a month's time. From Jian'an to Lindu, the fastest It will take less than half a month, plus the half-month rest period, that is to say, if you want to get to Lindu in time to qualify for the Sword Seizing Conference, you must set off as soon as possible."
"Well, Wuyang understands." Now that the Cangxie Sword was born, the royal families of the Four Kingdoms can't sit still. Naturally, the sooner the Sword Seizing Conference is held, the better.
"I have decided to also send you to Lindu." Emperor Yu said.
Song Qinghuan was not surprised.
She went to Chen Country and successfully got back the Qingyuan Fruit, which can explain a lot of problems.If the emperor wants Yuguo to finally get the Cangxie Sword, sending her there will also increase the chances of winning by one or two points.
Although she has a thorough understanding of Emperor Yu's psychology, she also knows that Emperor Yu is most jealous of others presuming his intentions. Therefore, the surface work that should be done is still to be done.
Apricot eyes opened, and she looked at Emperor Yu with some hesitation, as if she hadn't expected it.
As expected, Emperor Yu had no doubts, and smiled encouragingly, "I know that Wuyang's ability is actually far beyond everyone's expectations of you. This time I went to Zhao Kingdom, but whatever the final result, I should just broaden my horizons."
Song Qinghuan then pursed her lips and smiled, nodded in agreement, "Well, Wuyang must do his best to try not to disappoint Father."
Seeing that she agreed without saying a word, Emperor Yu was very satisfied, and the smile on his lips deepened.Suddenly thinking of something, her smile faded, and she sighed, "But...the wedding date between you and Shen Xiang will be postponed." His eyes fell heavily on Song Qinghuan's face.
Song Qinghuan's expression was indifferent, with an expression of indifference, "As long as Prime Minister Shen has no objections, my son will naturally have no objections." The more she showed that she didn't care about this marriage, the more Emperor Yu felt guilty towards her.
"I will write a letter to explain the situation to Liangguo. However, if I am not mistaken about this sword-seizing conference, Prime Minister Shen should also go to Lindu." Emperor Yu expressed his relief.
He paused, smiled happily at Song Qing, and said earnestly, "Wuyang, your marriage with Prime Minister Shen has been decided. If you really meet Prime Minister Shen in Lindu, you should be more enthusiastic. Prime Minister Shen is unpredictable, and he is his enemy." , is of no benefit to us."
Song Qinghuan's heart was slightly cold.
Is the father afraid that he will throw Shen Chuhan's face at that time, and instead have a grudge with Shen Chuhan?
She was very clear about Emperor Yu's thoughts, with a look of coldness in her eyes, she just nodded obediently on her face, "I understand, father, please rest assured."
Emperor Yu nodded in satisfaction. Among these princes and concubines, Wuyang is the most worry-free for her. I hope that after she gets married to Liang Country, she can fight for more benefits for Yu Country.
Song Qinghuan glanced at him, and said lightly, "I don't know who else would the father want to send to Lindu this time, besides my son and minister?"
Emperor Yu revealed a contemplative look on his face, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "I think the birth of the Cangxie Sword is a rare and rare encounter in a hundred years, and it would be bad for anyone to lose it. So... I decided to let you go to Lindu together."
The meaning of the Cang Xie Sword is extraordinary, the more people go there, the better the chance of winning.
Song Qinghuan understood this truth, and Emperor Yu naturally understood it too.
The crown prince is definitely going. Song Xuan has just been crowned king recently and is in full swing, so it is impossible to be excluded. In this way, only Song Yi is left.
Originally, Emperor Yu only made Song Xuan king, and the Ning family already had a lot of dissatisfaction. If Song Yi were eliminated this time, Concubine Ning Gui and Ning Tengyue would definitely not let it go, so Song Yi had to go too.
As for Song Qingyi——
Song Qinghuan's lips curled into a mocking smile.
She has such a strong temper, and she has been hit hard recently, so she can't be left behind, otherwise, the whole palace will not be turned upside down by her?
What's more, the Ning family and the Wei family are holding back each other in the court, and it is absolutely impossible for Emperor Yu to favor any one of them.
The drooping eyes lowered the turbulent strangeness in their eyes, and smiled slightly at Emperor Yu, "This is very good, and we can take care of each other when we arrive in Lindu."
Emperor Yu nodded, "When the Taibu Department finds out that the next day is suitable for departure, you will immediately set off for Lindu. Wuyang should go back and make preparations."
"Yes." Song Qinghuan got up and gave a blessing, thanked Emperor Yu, and quietly walked out of the Xuanshi Hall.
Liu Yue and Shen Xing followed her pace and walked for a while, seeing no one around, Fang asked, "Your Highness, the Emperor summoned you, is there anything wrong?"
Song Qinghuan looked up into the distance, and said lightly, "Let's start preparing for Lindu."
*
The date of the Sword Seizing Conference is set on June [-]th, so if you want to be eligible to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, you must arrive at Lindu in early June.According to calculations by the Taibu Department, the departure date was set on May [-]th, and more than half a month was allowed on the road, which was more than enough.
Today is May [-]nd, and there are only six days left before the departure date, and the atmosphere in the palace is becoming more and more tense.
Sword grabbing conference.
Although everyone wants to be qualified to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, it is needless to elaborate on the danger involved.
During the two weeks between arriving in Lindu and the official opening of the Sword Seizing Conference, the children of royal families from various countries who participated in the conference had to avoid the attacks of various forces.Because the more people eliminated at this stage, the more beneficial it will be for those who finally enter the Sword Seizing Conference.
Moreover, I heard that before the official opening of the Sword Seizing Conference, the host of the Sword Seizing Conference——the Royal Family of Zhao Kingdom will also have strict selection procedures.
The Cangxie sword appeared in Zhao Kingdom, how could the Zhao Kingdom royal family willingly hand it over?Many tests will be set up, hoping that the prince Di Ji of this country can defeat the other three countries and successfully win the Cangxie Sword.
Although there was injustice, the Cangxie Sword was found in Zhao Kingdom after all, so Emperor Zhao could keep it secret.It's just that the Cangxie Sword is too mysterious, and Emperor Zhao is also afraid of being backlashed, so he dare not act rashly, and can only make a fuss in the sword seizing conference.
Song Qinghuan was not interested in Cangxie Sword, the only thing she was happy about was that she could finally see Shen Chuhan in Lindu.Think about it, how many days have they not seen each other?
The list of participants from the other three countries has also been released.
Zhao Kingdom is the host country, needless to say, all the grown-up princes and concubines will participate.
Sure enough, as Song Qinghuan expected, Liangguo sent Ningle Changdi Ji Yin Qingrong as a representative, and Prime Minister Shen Chuhan escorted him all the way to Lindu.
As for the Kingdom of Chen, Su Jingshuo, Su Jingci, and Su Fengming all participated, and Su Rao would naturally not be absent.The only unexpected thing was that Su Yan's name was also on the list of participants.
It seems that there will be a splendid drama staged in Lindu in June.
The preparations for the road, the preparations for the luggage to Lindu, Liu Yue Shen Xing has to worry about.In the past few days, Song Qinghuan has been conducting surprise training in martial arts under the guidance of Chongjin.
Although she didn't know the specific form of the sword-seizing conference, since it was a sword-seizing competition, martial arts competition was indispensable.
After taking the Flood Dragon Neidan, her internal strength has improved by leaps and bounds, as if she had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du in an instant, and even Chongjin was amazed.
Song Qinghuan didn't hide it from her, and told Chong Jin about taking the Jiaolong Neidan.Chongjin was amazed by Song Qinghuan's adventure, but also very pleased, and took the time to pass on all his unique skills to Song Qinghuan.
Although it was only a short month, Song Qinghuan felt that his martial arts had made a qualitative leap.I can't help feeling a little bit of anticipation for the Sword Seizing Conference, and I can't wait to show my skills.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of departure.
On this day, the weather was excellent, with no clouds in the sky, and the wind blowing past brought a comfortable warmth, making people feel smoky.
Several luxurious carriages parked outside the Nanhua Gate, and the horses driving the carriages wagged their tails leisurely, looking leisurely.However, the driver of the carriage had a serious expression on his face.
They are coachmen carefully selected by the palace, in order to escort the princes and concubines to Lindu safely.
After waiting for a while, people from the Nanhua Gate began to come out one after another with the maids and servants.It was Song Yi, Song Yan and others who were leaving for Lindu today.
Song Qinghuan also brought Liuyue Shenxing to Nanhua Gate at this time, walking slowly and calmly, with a calm expression.
Halfway there, I met a person on a narrow road.
It was Song Qingyi!
She hadn't seen Song Qingyi for a long time since she was grounded by the queen. Looking at her now, her face seemed to be a little thinner, and her expression seemed to be somewhat shadowy.
Seeing Song Qinghuan, the shadows in her eyes darkened, and her breath seemed to be a little disordered.
Song Qinghuan raised her eyebrows slightly, stopped in her tracks, and saluted Song Qingyi, "Second Sister Huang."
Song Qingyi sized her up for a long time with heavy eyes, then Fang nodded back, "Wuyang." His voice was a bit hoarse.
She quickly lowered her eyes, but Song Qinghuan sensitively caught the resentment in her eyes, and sneered in her heart. Song Qingyi had learned to behave a little better and knew how to hide her true emotions.
"Second Sister Huang is also going to Nanhuamen, right? Why don't you go together?" Song Qinghuan smiled warmly and invited her.
She knew that Song Qingyi had long regarded herself as a thorn in the flesh, but the more she was like this, the more she wanted to dangle in front of her eyes.It's best to make her lose her sense of proportion and turn her face on the spot.
Song Qingyi clenched her hands in her sleeves, and her breath became a little more gloomy.
However, she didn't erupt after all, and smiled at Song Qinghuan, "Okay." As she spoke, she walked forward together with Song Qinghuan.
Every minute and every second with Song Qinghuan, Song Qingyi felt tormented.It's been a few days since I saw her, she's rather haggard, but Song Qinghuan's face is getting brighter and brighter, how can she be reconciled?
She took a deep breath, suppressing the disgust and hatred churning in her heart.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
Before arriving at Lindu, she must not act rashly!
Song Qinghuan watched coldly, seeing that although she endured so much, she did not explode.It seems... the Queen's confinement of her was not without help.
Intentionally stabbing her again, he glanced at her meaningfully, and said lightly, "I thought that Second Sister Huang would hate me when she saw me again."
Song Qingyi didn't expect her to say that suddenly, startled, and looked at her suspiciously.
Song Qinghuan smiled, "Everyone said that it was because of me that the second imperial sister was grounded by the empress. If it is true, I will feel very sorry."
Song Qingyi's heart welled up with anger.
The matter of her being grounded by the empress mother, the empress mother clearly ordered the people in her palace to block the news, so too many people should not have known about it.I didn't want to, but it spread throughout the entire palace overnight, and even the reason why she was grounded was spread in detail.
If it is said that no one is secretly manipulating this scene, she will not believe it!
Seeing Song Qinghuan's half-smile expression now, a chill surged up in his heart.Could it be... Song Qinghuan sent people to spread the rumors that were raging in the palace back then?
And now, she is waiting to see her own joke? !
The unwillingness and anger in his heart continued to swell, his eyes were red, his breath was disordered, and he was about to explode.At this moment, a steady voice suddenly came from behind, "Your Highness, it's getting late. I'm afraid your Highness should hurry up."
Song Qinghuan frowned slightly and looked back.
But he found that besides the painted screen and painted fan, Song Qingyi was followed by a maid, and there was also an older court lady with a long face, calm eyes and a solemn expression.
This court lady seems to be a bit unfamiliar.
His eyes moved slightly, and he asked coolly, "Which palace are you from?"
The palace maid gave her a blessing, her expression not flustered, "If you go back to His Highness Seventh, the slave girl Ran Dong is a servant in Changle Palace. This time, under the order of the empress, I will go to Lindu with His Highness Fourth Highness."
Dye winter.
Song Qinghuan played the name silently.
From Changle Palace.
Judging from the name, it seems that she is with Xiu Xia who was killed by an assassin in Shanglinyuan before, and she presumably is also the queen's confidant.
It seemed that the queen was afraid that Song Qingyi would do something stupid again, so she specially sent her confidant maid to go with her, just to perform the duty of supervision.
For example, just now, if Randong hadn't interjected, Song Qingyi might have exploded already.
The coldness in the eyes is even worse.
The empress has put a lot of thought into this sword grabbing meeting.I just don't know, is her goal on the Cang Xie Sword, or on herself?
Taking a glance at Randong, Qing Lingling said, "Since you are an old man in the queen's palace, you should know the rules. Look at this palace, whose master is talking, and the slaves can interrupt?" The tone was as usual, but with a twist Intimidating momentum.
Ran Dong's heartbeat stagnated, and he thought to himself.
I don't think so since I have never dealt with His Highness the Seventh Highness before, but with just a few sentences at this time, the aura of His Highness Seventh's words is so shocking.No wonder the empress is worried about His Royal Highness, she decided to send herself to accompany her.
Although His Highness the Fourth Highness is also intelligent, but in front of His Highness the Seventh Highness, he is still inferior.
After thinking about it a few times, I saluted Song Qinghuan with a sincere tone, "Your Majesty knows your mistake, please forgive me." She is a servant, and Empress Wuyang is the master. In this case, it is natural to admit her mistake obediently .
Sure enough, he was a person trained by the empress. He could bend and stretch, and he was several ranks higher than the painting screen and painting fan beside Song Qingyi.
Song Qinghuan's cold eyes paused on her face, and she gave a light "um", and then looked at Song Qingyi, "Since it's getting late, Second Sister Huang, let's go quickly."
With the lessons learned just now, Song Qingyi kept silent all the way, and hurried to Nanhua Gate.
When they reached Nanhua Gate, the two separated and got into their own carriages.
When everyone was present, the convoy slowly left the palace and drove towards the city gate.
Out of the city gate, on Shangguan Road, the hustle and bustle outside the car gradually receded, and for a while, only the uniform footsteps of the escorting Qimen riders and the rolling sound of the wheels were heard.
After walking for a while, Liu Yue raised the curtain and looked out of the car, there was a bit of strange color flowing between her eyebrows and eyes.
After a while, she put down the curtain, her expression seemed to calm down slightly.
"How?" Song Qinghuan raised the corners of her lips slightly.
Liu Yue was slightly startled, and looked at Song Qinghuan in puzzlement.
The smile on Song Qinghuan's lips deepened, "Can you see him?"
Liu Yue was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood, her ears turned red, she lowered her head slightly, and gave a soft hum in embarrassment.
Song Qinghuan smiled at Liu Guang, seeing that she was shy, she didn't say any more.
It was Xuanying who Liuyue lifted the curtain to look at.
When she went to Zhao Country, Xuan Ying would naturally follow her.Song Qinghuan gave him the human skin mask that he got from Ji Liuyun back then, and Xuanying used it to change his appearance, and mixed into the accompanying Qimen riders.
but……
Xuanying's face changed, and Liuyue could be recognized in the crowd at a glance. It seems...the two of them had communicated in private.
Song Qinghuan chuckled in his heart, slightly closed his eyes and closed his eyes to regain his composure.
She would like to see, when will the layer of window paper between the two be pierced?
*
The horses and horses did not stop all the way, and they traveled day and night, and finally arrived in Lindu at the end of May.
Song Qingyi really restrained a lot during this journey, and never came to trouble Song Qinghuan at all. Most of the time, she just stayed quietly in the carriage and the inn, and did not come out.
Song Qinghuan knew that she hadn't learned to be obedient, but was brewing a bigger conspiracy.If she wanted to attack herself, the best chance would be the half month before the Sword Seizing Conference.
However, just relying on her, probably don't even try to get anything from her.
The carriage convoy drove into Lindu City one by one.
The sun was shining brightly and the breeze was warm.
The sound of bustle and bustle came from outside the car, and its prosperity was not inferior to that of Jian'an and Los Angeles.
The carriage drove for a while, and then came to a slow stop——
The meeting hall where they stayed has arrived.
The Huitong Pavilion in Lindu is equivalent to the Sifang Pavilion in Jian'an, and it is a place specially to entertain envoys from the Sifang.Huitong Hall is located in Sangzi Lane in Lindu City, covering a large area, and there is only Huitong Hall in the whole alley.
The front yard of the Sifang Pavilion is the front hall garden of the lobby, and the back yard is divided into three parts. From left to right, there are Luocheng Courtyard, Shengjing Courtyard and Jian'an Courtyard. place.
There are many houses in each courtyard, which are scattered among them. There are also exquisite mountains and rocks, pavilions and waterside pavilions, forming a small courtyard.It not only ensures the smooth communication between the three countries, but also ensures the relative independence.
After a while, someone invited Song Qinghuan out of the car.
Liu Yue and Shen Xing opened the curtain, got out of the carriage, and helped Song Qinghuan get down on the footstool.
In the other several carriages, Song Yi, Song Xuan, Song Yan and Song Qingyi also got off the carriage and stood still at the entrance of the Huitong Hall.
The Huitong Hall looks very grand, with two big stone lions standing at the entrance.The vermilion lacquered door was completely open at this moment, as if welcoming their arrival.
Song Qinghuan just glanced around lightly, and suddenly saw someone coming out of the Huitong hall in a hurry, followed by many maids and servants, who greeted them with high spirits and smiles on their faces.
Before he came to the front, he heard the hearty voice of that person, "The princes and concubines of Yu Kingdom have arrived! If you are far away, welcome, and if you are far away, please don't take offense!"
While speaking, he had already walked in front of the crowd.
Song Qinghuan looked at him calmly, and saw that the person who came was extraordinary, dressed luxuriously, and his appearance was somewhat familiar, and he was also an "old friend" from the previous life.It seems that he was ordered by Emperor Zhao to meet them.
Sure enough, the man saluted a few people, and said in a crisp voice, "I, Jun Che, welcome you all on behalf of my father, everyone, please come inside."
Song Qinghuan narrowed his eyes.
Jun Che, the second prince of the Zhao Kingdom, has outstanding abilities and is currently the most popular candidate for the crown prince of the Zhao Kingdom.His outstanding ability earned the trust of Emperor Zhao, so this time he was entrusted with the important task of receiving distinguished guests from all over the world.
Now there are three adult princes in Zhao Kingdom, apart from the second prince Junche, the fourth prince Junshu holds the military power and is stationed at the border all year round. However, he will definitely come back to participate in this sword-grabbing conference. I just don’t know if he is in Lin’an at this time.The remaining one is the Fifth Prince Junxi.It is not clear what Jun Xi's temperament is, but his mother and concubine are extremely favored, so his position in the palace is not weak.
Apart from these three princes, there is also an adult Emperor Ji, Zhao Guoyun and Emperor Ji Junwan.
Thinking of Jun Wan, Song Qinghuan's eyes turned cold, and she lowered her head to suppress the strangeness in her eyes.
Song Yi, Song Xuan, Song Yan and the others hurriedly greeted and thanked each other, and Song Qinghuan and Song Qingyi also followed suit.
Song Yan was the prince, so he naturally had to act like a prince at this time, pointing to several people and introducing them to Jun Che one by one.Jun Che smiled and nodded. When Song Qinghuan was finally introduced, there seemed to be a strange color flashing across his eyes, and then disappeared soon.
Jun Che's eyes flicked past everyone's eyes one by one, Fang turned sideways, smiling brightly, "Everyone must be extremely tired after a long journey. The Jian'an Courtyard has been prepared for you, please come in with me, princes and concubines. "
As he said that, he led the way and led a few people to the Jian'an courtyard in the backyard.
I don't want to, and I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I didn't walk very far, and I met a few people walking towards here from afar.
Seeing the person coming, Song Qinghuan's pupils shrank slightly, and his brows frowned.
How could it be such a coincidence to bump into this person so quickly? !
Who is it~ come and guess~
(End of this chapter)
When Song Qinghuan got the news, the calmness in his eyes cracked inch by inch, and a storm arose in his heart.
She never expected that the Cangxie Sword would reappear in this life!
She also heard a lot about the legend of Cang Xie Sword.But I always thought that the so-called legends were just stories passed down from rumors, so how could they come true?But they didn't expect that there really was the Cangxie Sword in this world!
The bottom of the eyes was dark for a moment.
Since the Cangxie Sword was born, the Sword Seizing Conference will be held soon. It seems...the marriage between himself and Shen Chuhan will be postponed again.With a helpless sigh, he looked out the window with cold eyes.
Between her and Shen Chuhan, it was really a disaster.
Laughing at herself, is God punishing her impulsiveness and heartlessness in her previous life?
While thinking up and down, he heard the sound of curtains, turned his head and saw that Shen Xing walked in, and bowed to her, "Your Highness."
Song Qinghuan raised her brows and took a deep breath, "What's wrong?"
"There are people coming from the Xuanshi Hall."
Song Qinghuan's eyes darkened slightly, she brushed her wrinkled dress, her face regained her usual calmness, and said in a flat voice, "Please come in."
Shen Xing saluted and retreated.Soon, a servant in red was brought in.Song Qinghuan took a closer look, and found that it was Xiao Shunzi who had met several times.
"Your Highness, my servant." Xiao Shunzi bowed respectfully to Song Qinghuan.
"Excuse me." Song Qinghuan nodded slightly, and smiled at him, "But Father sent you here?"
Xiao Shunzi responded crisply, "The Emperor asks His Highness to go back to Xuanshi Hall tomorrow morning."
Song Qinghuan drew back her long eyelashes, concealing the darkness in her eyes.
The emperor sent someone to summon her at this time, most likely because of Cang Xiejian's appearance in this world.Slowly raised his eyes, with a smile that was not a smile, "Is the father only summoning me, or are all the other highnesses summoned?"
Xiao Shunzi was also clever, and smiled when he heard this, "Only His Highness has been summoned."
"Understood. You go back and tell your father that I will definitely go to Xuanshi Hall on time tomorrow." Song Qinghuan said with a calm expression.
Xiao Shunzi looked up at her with curiosity.
The news of Cang Xie Sword's reappearance has been widely circulated in the palace, even his little servant knows the pros and cons of it, and he is very frightened.According to the past rules, the princes and concubines of the royal families of various countries will soon rush to the capital of Zhaoguo, and according to the degree of favor of Wuyang Empress, it is natural that they are also included in this list.
In that case, the marriage between Wuyang Diji and Shen Xiang had to be postponed.It can be seen that His Highness's face has not changed in the slightest?
Although Shen Xiang's sudden proposal to marry Wuyang Diji was beyond everyone's expectations, in everyone's eyes, Shen Chuhan was really a one-in-a-hundred-in-a-million husband-in-law candidate in the four kingdoms, just by the reaction of Pingyang Diji.But no matter whether the matter of marrying Prime Minister Shen is settled, or the wedding date of the two is likely to be delayed, His Highness seems to have always been in such a light mood.
Xiao Shunzi was puzzled.
Is His Highness happy or unhappy about marrying Prime Minister Shen?
Song Qinghuan took the teacup from Shen Xing, took a sip leisurely, her eyes seemed to be on the tea in the cup, but she could see the expression on Xiao Shunzi's face.
After all, Xiao Shunzi had only entered the palace not long ago, and all her emotions were written on her face.
With just one glance, Song Qinghuan knew what he was thinking.
There are countless pairs of eyes staring at her in this palace, how can she easily make people guess what is in her heart?As for whether she is willing to marry Shen Chuhan or not, let everyone discuss.The more they talked about it, the more uncomfortable Song Qingyi, who was secretly sad in Zhaohua Palace now, must be.
And she was very happy to see Song Qingyi's distressed and sad appearance.
After drinking a few sips of tea, seeing that Xiao Shunzi was still looking at her, Song Qinghuan pursed her lips, and said in a cool voice, "Xiao Shunzi, do you still have anything to do with me?"
Xiao Shunzi suddenly came back to his senses, his cheeks blushed, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, "No more, no more, this servant will leave, and I will definitely bring His Highness's words with me."
Song Qinghuan gave a light "um", glanced at Shen Xing, "Shen Xing, see off the guests."
Shen Xing responded and invited Xiao Shunzi out of the Xingyue Hall.
The wind blows outside the window, blowing the fragrance of flowers all over the courtyard.It was late spring, and the begonias in the courtyard were in full bloom.
Since Father Huang only summoned her alone tomorrow, he must be talking about the postponement of her and Shen Chuhan's marriage.Although she felt melancholy, she also knew that the birth of Cang Xie Sword was a major event, and the wedding date between her and Shen Chuhan could only be postponed, and there was absolutely no room for change.
However, Emperor Liang now has no heirs, only Yin Qingrong, his younger sister.
Zhaoguo and his party are full of dangers. It is impossible for Yin Zhan to go to Liang in person. The only way is to send Yin Qingrong to represent Liangguo.As far as she knew, Yin Qingrong had a pure and innocent personality, and was always well protected by Yin Zhan, and she was not good at martial arts.
Therefore, Yin Zhan will never rest assured that Yin Qingrong will go to Zhao alone. The most likely way is to send Shen Chuhan to escort him all the way to Lindu.
As long as I can convince my father to allow her to go to Lindu to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, she and Shen Chuhan will be able to meet again in Lindu.Thinking of this, the melancholy in my heart dissipated a little.
The marriage could be postponed, but she couldn't wait to see Shen Chuhan.
The next day.
According to the notification from Xiao Shunzi the day before, Song Qinghuan picked the time, guessing that Emperor Yu would soon come to court, so he took Liuyue Shenxing to Xuanshi Hall.
The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the summer is not yet here, but it is already hot outside.
Liuyue was worried that Song Qinghuan would be exposed to the sun, so she specially brought a green bamboo umbrella to support her, and deliberately chose a cool place to walk, but she didn't feel the heat.
Song Qinghuan raised her eyes inadvertently, and saw the satin umbrella covered with tung oil.
There, a branch of green bamboo is painted, with a clear demeanor.
I suddenly remembered the matter of Shen Chuhan blocking the way in the alley that day. At that time, I just felt that he was a little inexplicable, and I had to let myself agree to help him investigate the case. Now that I think about it, he was clearly jealous at that time, jealous of himself and Su Jing's farewell Meet alone at Qianzhan Pavilion.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
There were many things that he didn't realize at the time, but now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that Shen Chuhan's actions were clearly childish.
He was walking slowly while holding an umbrella, when he suddenly saw Liuyue's footsteps slightly paused beside him.
She glanced sideways and asked lightly, "What's wrong?"
Liu Yue resumed her pace, lowered her voice and whispered in her ear, "Your Highness, the front is Concubine Ning."
Song Qinghuan turned his eyes, looked forward, and saw a group of people walking on the tree-lined path ahead, and the person walking in front surrounded by court ladies was the bright and charming Concubine Ning.
Since Prince Shanglinyuan was assassinated that day, he had recuperated for a long time, and Emperor Yu didn't entrust him with many things, but gave them to Song Xuan or Song Yan as appropriate.Although Song Xuan has been gaining momentum recently, after all, there is no support from her mother's family behind her, and her supporters in the court are still not as good as Song Yan and the prince.Although Concubine Ning Gui and Song Yi were a little afraid of him, the chief competitor was still the crown prince.
And recently, Song Qingyi was grounded. The empress had no time to spare, and was so busy with herself.
The Queen's life was difficult, and Concubine Ning was happy, so looking at her now, her face was radiant and radiant.
Song Qinghuan didn't avoid or dodge, but still walked forward slowly.
The two met on the tree-lined path, and Song Qinghuan greeted Concubine Ning slightly, "Young Concubine."
Concubine Ning Guifei glanced at her, raised her eyebrows slightly, "Yo, I just looked from afar, and with this bamboo umbrella blocking me, I didn't see who it was. This kind of person turned out to be Wuyang."
She pursed her lips and smiled, "Wuyang is getting better and better every day."
She smiled at Yan Yan, as if she was very kind to Song Qinghuan. Seeing Song Qinghuan's expression was calm, she teased, "No wonder Wuyang's skin is as white as jade. It turns out that he always pays attention to sun protection. It seems that this palace also has to ask you a lot." learned."
Song Qinghuan bowed slightly, smiled lightly and said nothing.
Concubine Ning Guifei didn't seem to feel her indifference, she smiled and said, "But Wuyang will soon become a newlywed, so she must take good care of her."
Seeing that she really went around to his marriage with Shen Chuhan, a sneer flashed across Song Qingyi's eyes.
She knew what Concubine Ning Gui was planning,
Because of the outstanding performance of Brother Five in the Shanglinyuan Assassin case, his father has paid more and more attention to him in recent days, faintly threatening the position of the eldest prince.It is well known that I am close to Brother Wuhuang, so Concubine Ning Guifei had a lukewarm attitude when she saw her some time ago.
But her marriage with Shen Chuhan was certain, but Ning Guifei's attitude suddenly changed.
Song Qinghuan's heart was as bright as a mirror.
Originally, Concubine Ning Gui's hatred for her was because she was worried that she would become the strong backing of the fifth emperor brother. After all, it is obvious to all that her father loves her these days.With my own support for Brother Wu Huang, it is not guaranteed that he can really compete with the crown prince and Song Yan.
Of course—
Now his marriage with Shen Chuhan has been decided, and he will soon marry to Liangguo.Once he arrives in Liang Country, what will happen to Yu Country's court and harem, he will be beyond his control, and he will no longer be able to help Fifth Emperor Brother.
Therefore, I am no longer the enemy of Concubine Ning Gui.
That being the case, why should she be an enemy to herself?
Song Qinghuan sneered slightly in his heart.
Concubine Ning Guifei's ability to steer the rudder according to the wind is probably unmatched by anyone in the entire palace.Even the queen has her own arrogance and dignity, and if she hates herself, she always hates herself.Thinking about it this way, it's not a bit frank.
If you ask a person who smiled at you one second, who may stab you in the next second, and a person who may shoot you coldly all the time, who is more disliked?
Song Qinghuan thought, she probably hates both of them!So she is doomed not to be an ally with the Queen or Concubine Ning.
Therefore, Song Qinghuan didn't react much to Concubine Ning's joking words, she just smiled politely and lowered her head in feigned embarrassment.
Concubine Ning finally noticed the indifference on Song Qinghuan's expression, she cursed in her heart, and a stern look appeared in her eyes.
For a moment, he smiled again, "Where is Wuyang going?"
Song Qinghuan raised his eyes, and said in a cool voice without concealing it, "Go to Xuanshi Hall."
A gleam appeared in Ning Guifei's eyes.
She naturally knows about Cang Xie Sword.So, Song Qinghuan is in a hurry to go to the Xuanshi Hall at this time, but in order to go to Zhaoguo to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference?
She was planning in her heart, trying to get some more words out of Song Qinghuan's mouth. After a little thought, she opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Song Qinghuan's cold voice, "Father is still waiting for me in the Xuanshi Palace. If the imperial concubine and empress are not around Wuyang will take his leave first."
Seeing that her words were interrupted, Concubine Ning was displeased for a moment, and then she quickly lowered her eyes to cover it.After she carried Emperor Yu out, Concubine Ning Gui was a smart person, so she couldn't ask any further questions, so she just smiled and said, "It's nothing, Wu Yang can go."
Song Qinghuan gave a soft "um", gave her a blessing, turned around and walked away gracefully.
After taking Liuyue and Chen Xing for another half a stick of incense, the Xuanshi Hall arrived.
Seeing her coming, the servant on duty outside the door saluted and invited her in, but stopped Liu Yue and Shen Xing outside the hall.
Seeing this, Song Qinghuan felt hesitant, and ordered Liuyue and Shenxing to wait at the door, and walked into the Xuanshi Hall without haste.
The interior of the Xuanshi Hall still looks familiar, with the windows wide open and the warm wind blowing in, bringing with it a sense of warmth.The displays and furnishings are resplendent and resplendent, showing the luxury and grandeur of the royal family everywhere.
Song Qinghuan looked around, slightly sighing in his heart.
Starting from Xishu, the number of times she has visited Xuanshidian in the past few months is probably more than the sum of the previous 16 years.Being frequently summoned by the emperor like this, I don't know when it is good and when it is bad.
Emperor Yu was sitting at the top, with a pensive look on his face.Seeing her come in, he looked up and ordered Zhong Huai to give her a seat.
Song Qinghuan saluted and thanked him, smiled and sat down at the bottom, looking up at Emperor Yu.
Emperor Yu stared deeply, his eyes seemed to hide thousands of emotions, and there was a trace of fatigue between his brows and eyes.
Zhong Huai watched from the side, feeling rejoicing in his heart——
Fortunately, Song Qinghuan took back the Qingyuan fruit from Chen Kingdom, which cured the emperor's heart disease.Otherwise, with the recent frequent accidents in Jian'an City, it may be unknown whether the emperor can survive until now.
Emperor Yu probably also thought of Song Qinghuan's achievement of retrieving the Qingyuan fruit for him, his frown was loosened, and his tone was slightly slow, "Wuyang... must have heard about the birth of Cangxie Sword."
Song Qinghuan nodded, her eyes were clear.
"How much does Wu Yang know about Cang Xie Sword?"
Song Qinghuan pondered for a moment, "My son once saw the Cangxie Sword recorded in the ancient history books. I heard that it is the object of the God of War Linyuan. There are rumors that Cangxie appears and the world will be the master."
After saying this, she glanced at Emperor Yu calmly.
Any king has the ambition to dominate the world, and the father is no exception.It's just the disparity between the national power of Yu country and other countries, which makes him dare not act rashly.
But now that the Cangxie sword is released, the four kingdoms are ready to move, and I believe that the father will not be able to sit still.Regardless of whether the legend of the Cangxie Sword is true or not, who would want to miss such a good opportunity right in front of them?
"Then... Wu Yang must have understood the rules of the Sword Seizing Conference."
"Yes."
Emperor Yu was silent for a moment, and then he spoke again, "A letter from Emperor Zhao to me came with him, saying that the Sword Seizing Conference will be held in a month's time. From Jian'an to Lindu, the fastest It will take less than half a month, plus the half-month rest period, that is to say, if you want to get to Lindu in time to qualify for the Sword Seizing Conference, you must set off as soon as possible."
"Well, Wuyang understands." Now that the Cangxie Sword was born, the royal families of the Four Kingdoms can't sit still. Naturally, the sooner the Sword Seizing Conference is held, the better.
"I have decided to also send you to Lindu." Emperor Yu said.
Song Qinghuan was not surprised.
She went to Chen Country and successfully got back the Qingyuan Fruit, which can explain a lot of problems.If the emperor wants Yuguo to finally get the Cangxie Sword, sending her there will also increase the chances of winning by one or two points.
Although she has a thorough understanding of Emperor Yu's psychology, she also knows that Emperor Yu is most jealous of others presuming his intentions. Therefore, the surface work that should be done is still to be done.
Apricot eyes opened, and she looked at Emperor Yu with some hesitation, as if she hadn't expected it.
As expected, Emperor Yu had no doubts, and smiled encouragingly, "I know that Wuyang's ability is actually far beyond everyone's expectations of you. This time I went to Zhao Kingdom, but whatever the final result, I should just broaden my horizons."
Song Qinghuan then pursed her lips and smiled, nodded in agreement, "Well, Wuyang must do his best to try not to disappoint Father."
Seeing that she agreed without saying a word, Emperor Yu was very satisfied, and the smile on his lips deepened.Suddenly thinking of something, her smile faded, and she sighed, "But...the wedding date between you and Shen Xiang will be postponed." His eyes fell heavily on Song Qinghuan's face.
Song Qinghuan's expression was indifferent, with an expression of indifference, "As long as Prime Minister Shen has no objections, my son will naturally have no objections." The more she showed that she didn't care about this marriage, the more Emperor Yu felt guilty towards her.
"I will write a letter to explain the situation to Liangguo. However, if I am not mistaken about this sword-seizing conference, Prime Minister Shen should also go to Lindu." Emperor Yu expressed his relief.
He paused, smiled happily at Song Qing, and said earnestly, "Wuyang, your marriage with Prime Minister Shen has been decided. If you really meet Prime Minister Shen in Lindu, you should be more enthusiastic. Prime Minister Shen is unpredictable, and he is his enemy." , is of no benefit to us."
Song Qinghuan's heart was slightly cold.
Is the father afraid that he will throw Shen Chuhan's face at that time, and instead have a grudge with Shen Chuhan?
She was very clear about Emperor Yu's thoughts, with a look of coldness in her eyes, she just nodded obediently on her face, "I understand, father, please rest assured."
Emperor Yu nodded in satisfaction. Among these princes and concubines, Wuyang is the most worry-free for her. I hope that after she gets married to Liang Country, she can fight for more benefits for Yu Country.
Song Qinghuan glanced at him, and said lightly, "I don't know who else would the father want to send to Lindu this time, besides my son and minister?"
Emperor Yu revealed a contemplative look on his face, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "I think the birth of the Cangxie Sword is a rare and rare encounter in a hundred years, and it would be bad for anyone to lose it. So... I decided to let you go to Lindu together."
The meaning of the Cang Xie Sword is extraordinary, the more people go there, the better the chance of winning.
Song Qinghuan understood this truth, and Emperor Yu naturally understood it too.
The crown prince is definitely going. Song Xuan has just been crowned king recently and is in full swing, so it is impossible to be excluded. In this way, only Song Yi is left.
Originally, Emperor Yu only made Song Xuan king, and the Ning family already had a lot of dissatisfaction. If Song Yi were eliminated this time, Concubine Ning Gui and Ning Tengyue would definitely not let it go, so Song Yi had to go too.
As for Song Qingyi——
Song Qinghuan's lips curled into a mocking smile.
She has such a strong temper, and she has been hit hard recently, so she can't be left behind, otherwise, the whole palace will not be turned upside down by her?
What's more, the Ning family and the Wei family are holding back each other in the court, and it is absolutely impossible for Emperor Yu to favor any one of them.
The drooping eyes lowered the turbulent strangeness in their eyes, and smiled slightly at Emperor Yu, "This is very good, and we can take care of each other when we arrive in Lindu."
Emperor Yu nodded, "When the Taibu Department finds out that the next day is suitable for departure, you will immediately set off for Lindu. Wuyang should go back and make preparations."
"Yes." Song Qinghuan got up and gave a blessing, thanked Emperor Yu, and quietly walked out of the Xuanshi Hall.
Liu Yue and Shen Xing followed her pace and walked for a while, seeing no one around, Fang asked, "Your Highness, the Emperor summoned you, is there anything wrong?"
Song Qinghuan looked up into the distance, and said lightly, "Let's start preparing for Lindu."
*
The date of the Sword Seizing Conference is set on June [-]th, so if you want to be eligible to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, you must arrive at Lindu in early June.According to calculations by the Taibu Department, the departure date was set on May [-]th, and more than half a month was allowed on the road, which was more than enough.
Today is May [-]nd, and there are only six days left before the departure date, and the atmosphere in the palace is becoming more and more tense.
Sword grabbing conference.
Although everyone wants to be qualified to participate in the Sword Seizing Conference, it is needless to elaborate on the danger involved.
During the two weeks between arriving in Lindu and the official opening of the Sword Seizing Conference, the children of royal families from various countries who participated in the conference had to avoid the attacks of various forces.Because the more people eliminated at this stage, the more beneficial it will be for those who finally enter the Sword Seizing Conference.
Moreover, I heard that before the official opening of the Sword Seizing Conference, the host of the Sword Seizing Conference——the Royal Family of Zhao Kingdom will also have strict selection procedures.
The Cangxie sword appeared in Zhao Kingdom, how could the Zhao Kingdom royal family willingly hand it over?Many tests will be set up, hoping that the prince Di Ji of this country can defeat the other three countries and successfully win the Cangxie Sword.
Although there was injustice, the Cangxie Sword was found in Zhao Kingdom after all, so Emperor Zhao could keep it secret.It's just that the Cangxie Sword is too mysterious, and Emperor Zhao is also afraid of being backlashed, so he dare not act rashly, and can only make a fuss in the sword seizing conference.
Song Qinghuan was not interested in Cangxie Sword, the only thing she was happy about was that she could finally see Shen Chuhan in Lindu.Think about it, how many days have they not seen each other?
The list of participants from the other three countries has also been released.
Zhao Kingdom is the host country, needless to say, all the grown-up princes and concubines will participate.
Sure enough, as Song Qinghuan expected, Liangguo sent Ningle Changdi Ji Yin Qingrong as a representative, and Prime Minister Shen Chuhan escorted him all the way to Lindu.
As for the Kingdom of Chen, Su Jingshuo, Su Jingci, and Su Fengming all participated, and Su Rao would naturally not be absent.The only unexpected thing was that Su Yan's name was also on the list of participants.
It seems that there will be a splendid drama staged in Lindu in June.
The preparations for the road, the preparations for the luggage to Lindu, Liu Yue Shen Xing has to worry about.In the past few days, Song Qinghuan has been conducting surprise training in martial arts under the guidance of Chongjin.
Although she didn't know the specific form of the sword-seizing conference, since it was a sword-seizing competition, martial arts competition was indispensable.
After taking the Flood Dragon Neidan, her internal strength has improved by leaps and bounds, as if she had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du in an instant, and even Chongjin was amazed.
Song Qinghuan didn't hide it from her, and told Chong Jin about taking the Jiaolong Neidan.Chongjin was amazed by Song Qinghuan's adventure, but also very pleased, and took the time to pass on all his unique skills to Song Qinghuan.
Although it was only a short month, Song Qinghuan felt that his martial arts had made a qualitative leap.I can't help feeling a little bit of anticipation for the Sword Seizing Conference, and I can't wait to show my skills.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of departure.
On this day, the weather was excellent, with no clouds in the sky, and the wind blowing past brought a comfortable warmth, making people feel smoky.
Several luxurious carriages parked outside the Nanhua Gate, and the horses driving the carriages wagged their tails leisurely, looking leisurely.However, the driver of the carriage had a serious expression on his face.
They are coachmen carefully selected by the palace, in order to escort the princes and concubines to Lindu safely.
After waiting for a while, people from the Nanhua Gate began to come out one after another with the maids and servants.It was Song Yi, Song Yan and others who were leaving for Lindu today.
Song Qinghuan also brought Liuyue Shenxing to Nanhua Gate at this time, walking slowly and calmly, with a calm expression.
Halfway there, I met a person on a narrow road.
It was Song Qingyi!
She hadn't seen Song Qingyi for a long time since she was grounded by the queen. Looking at her now, her face seemed to be a little thinner, and her expression seemed to be somewhat shadowy.
Seeing Song Qinghuan, the shadows in her eyes darkened, and her breath seemed to be a little disordered.
Song Qinghuan raised her eyebrows slightly, stopped in her tracks, and saluted Song Qingyi, "Second Sister Huang."
Song Qingyi sized her up for a long time with heavy eyes, then Fang nodded back, "Wuyang." His voice was a bit hoarse.
She quickly lowered her eyes, but Song Qinghuan sensitively caught the resentment in her eyes, and sneered in her heart. Song Qingyi had learned to behave a little better and knew how to hide her true emotions.
"Second Sister Huang is also going to Nanhuamen, right? Why don't you go together?" Song Qinghuan smiled warmly and invited her.
She knew that Song Qingyi had long regarded herself as a thorn in the flesh, but the more she was like this, the more she wanted to dangle in front of her eyes.It's best to make her lose her sense of proportion and turn her face on the spot.
Song Qingyi clenched her hands in her sleeves, and her breath became a little more gloomy.
However, she didn't erupt after all, and smiled at Song Qinghuan, "Okay." As she spoke, she walked forward together with Song Qinghuan.
Every minute and every second with Song Qinghuan, Song Qingyi felt tormented.It's been a few days since I saw her, she's rather haggard, but Song Qinghuan's face is getting brighter and brighter, how can she be reconciled?
She took a deep breath, suppressing the disgust and hatred churning in her heart.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
Before arriving at Lindu, she must not act rashly!
Song Qinghuan watched coldly, seeing that although she endured so much, she did not explode.It seems... the Queen's confinement of her was not without help.
Intentionally stabbing her again, he glanced at her meaningfully, and said lightly, "I thought that Second Sister Huang would hate me when she saw me again."
Song Qingyi didn't expect her to say that suddenly, startled, and looked at her suspiciously.
Song Qinghuan smiled, "Everyone said that it was because of me that the second imperial sister was grounded by the empress. If it is true, I will feel very sorry."
Song Qingyi's heart welled up with anger.
The matter of her being grounded by the empress mother, the empress mother clearly ordered the people in her palace to block the news, so too many people should not have known about it.I didn't want to, but it spread throughout the entire palace overnight, and even the reason why she was grounded was spread in detail.
If it is said that no one is secretly manipulating this scene, she will not believe it!
Seeing Song Qinghuan's half-smile expression now, a chill surged up in his heart.Could it be... Song Qinghuan sent people to spread the rumors that were raging in the palace back then?
And now, she is waiting to see her own joke? !
The unwillingness and anger in his heart continued to swell, his eyes were red, his breath was disordered, and he was about to explode.At this moment, a steady voice suddenly came from behind, "Your Highness, it's getting late. I'm afraid your Highness should hurry up."
Song Qinghuan frowned slightly and looked back.
But he found that besides the painted screen and painted fan, Song Qingyi was followed by a maid, and there was also an older court lady with a long face, calm eyes and a solemn expression.
This court lady seems to be a bit unfamiliar.
His eyes moved slightly, and he asked coolly, "Which palace are you from?"
The palace maid gave her a blessing, her expression not flustered, "If you go back to His Highness Seventh, the slave girl Ran Dong is a servant in Changle Palace. This time, under the order of the empress, I will go to Lindu with His Highness Fourth Highness."
Dye winter.
Song Qinghuan played the name silently.
From Changle Palace.
Judging from the name, it seems that she is with Xiu Xia who was killed by an assassin in Shanglinyuan before, and she presumably is also the queen's confidant.
It seemed that the queen was afraid that Song Qingyi would do something stupid again, so she specially sent her confidant maid to go with her, just to perform the duty of supervision.
For example, just now, if Randong hadn't interjected, Song Qingyi might have exploded already.
The coldness in the eyes is even worse.
The empress has put a lot of thought into this sword grabbing meeting.I just don't know, is her goal on the Cang Xie Sword, or on herself?
Taking a glance at Randong, Qing Lingling said, "Since you are an old man in the queen's palace, you should know the rules. Look at this palace, whose master is talking, and the slaves can interrupt?" The tone was as usual, but with a twist Intimidating momentum.
Ran Dong's heartbeat stagnated, and he thought to himself.
I don't think so since I have never dealt with His Highness the Seventh Highness before, but with just a few sentences at this time, the aura of His Highness Seventh's words is so shocking.No wonder the empress is worried about His Royal Highness, she decided to send herself to accompany her.
Although His Highness the Fourth Highness is also intelligent, but in front of His Highness the Seventh Highness, he is still inferior.
After thinking about it a few times, I saluted Song Qinghuan with a sincere tone, "Your Majesty knows your mistake, please forgive me." She is a servant, and Empress Wuyang is the master. In this case, it is natural to admit her mistake obediently .
Sure enough, he was a person trained by the empress. He could bend and stretch, and he was several ranks higher than the painting screen and painting fan beside Song Qingyi.
Song Qinghuan's cold eyes paused on her face, and she gave a light "um", and then looked at Song Qingyi, "Since it's getting late, Second Sister Huang, let's go quickly."
With the lessons learned just now, Song Qingyi kept silent all the way, and hurried to Nanhua Gate.
When they reached Nanhua Gate, the two separated and got into their own carriages.
When everyone was present, the convoy slowly left the palace and drove towards the city gate.
Out of the city gate, on Shangguan Road, the hustle and bustle outside the car gradually receded, and for a while, only the uniform footsteps of the escorting Qimen riders and the rolling sound of the wheels were heard.
After walking for a while, Liu Yue raised the curtain and looked out of the car, there was a bit of strange color flowing between her eyebrows and eyes.
After a while, she put down the curtain, her expression seemed to calm down slightly.
"How?" Song Qinghuan raised the corners of her lips slightly.
Liu Yue was slightly startled, and looked at Song Qinghuan in puzzlement.
The smile on Song Qinghuan's lips deepened, "Can you see him?"
Liu Yue was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood, her ears turned red, she lowered her head slightly, and gave a soft hum in embarrassment.
Song Qinghuan smiled at Liu Guang, seeing that she was shy, she didn't say any more.
It was Xuanying who Liuyue lifted the curtain to look at.
When she went to Zhao Country, Xuan Ying would naturally follow her.Song Qinghuan gave him the human skin mask that he got from Ji Liuyun back then, and Xuanying used it to change his appearance, and mixed into the accompanying Qimen riders.
but……
Xuanying's face changed, and Liuyue could be recognized in the crowd at a glance. It seems...the two of them had communicated in private.
Song Qinghuan chuckled in his heart, slightly closed his eyes and closed his eyes to regain his composure.
She would like to see, when will the layer of window paper between the two be pierced?
*
The horses and horses did not stop all the way, and they traveled day and night, and finally arrived in Lindu at the end of May.
Song Qingyi really restrained a lot during this journey, and never came to trouble Song Qinghuan at all. Most of the time, she just stayed quietly in the carriage and the inn, and did not come out.
Song Qinghuan knew that she hadn't learned to be obedient, but was brewing a bigger conspiracy.If she wanted to attack herself, the best chance would be the half month before the Sword Seizing Conference.
However, just relying on her, probably don't even try to get anything from her.
The carriage convoy drove into Lindu City one by one.
The sun was shining brightly and the breeze was warm.
The sound of bustle and bustle came from outside the car, and its prosperity was not inferior to that of Jian'an and Los Angeles.
The carriage drove for a while, and then came to a slow stop——
The meeting hall where they stayed has arrived.
The Huitong Pavilion in Lindu is equivalent to the Sifang Pavilion in Jian'an, and it is a place specially to entertain envoys from the Sifang.Huitong Hall is located in Sangzi Lane in Lindu City, covering a large area, and there is only Huitong Hall in the whole alley.
The front yard of the Sifang Pavilion is the front hall garden of the lobby, and the back yard is divided into three parts. From left to right, there are Luocheng Courtyard, Shengjing Courtyard and Jian'an Courtyard. place.
There are many houses in each courtyard, which are scattered among them. There are also exquisite mountains and rocks, pavilions and waterside pavilions, forming a small courtyard.It not only ensures the smooth communication between the three countries, but also ensures the relative independence.
After a while, someone invited Song Qinghuan out of the car.
Liu Yue and Shen Xing opened the curtain, got out of the carriage, and helped Song Qinghuan get down on the footstool.
In the other several carriages, Song Yi, Song Xuan, Song Yan and Song Qingyi also got off the carriage and stood still at the entrance of the Huitong Hall.
The Huitong Hall looks very grand, with two big stone lions standing at the entrance.The vermilion lacquered door was completely open at this moment, as if welcoming their arrival.
Song Qinghuan just glanced around lightly, and suddenly saw someone coming out of the Huitong hall in a hurry, followed by many maids and servants, who greeted them with high spirits and smiles on their faces.
Before he came to the front, he heard the hearty voice of that person, "The princes and concubines of Yu Kingdom have arrived! If you are far away, welcome, and if you are far away, please don't take offense!"
While speaking, he had already walked in front of the crowd.
Song Qinghuan looked at him calmly, and saw that the person who came was extraordinary, dressed luxuriously, and his appearance was somewhat familiar, and he was also an "old friend" from the previous life.It seems that he was ordered by Emperor Zhao to meet them.
Sure enough, the man saluted a few people, and said in a crisp voice, "I, Jun Che, welcome you all on behalf of my father, everyone, please come inside."
Song Qinghuan narrowed his eyes.
Jun Che, the second prince of the Zhao Kingdom, has outstanding abilities and is currently the most popular candidate for the crown prince of the Zhao Kingdom.His outstanding ability earned the trust of Emperor Zhao, so this time he was entrusted with the important task of receiving distinguished guests from all over the world.
Now there are three adult princes in Zhao Kingdom, apart from the second prince Junche, the fourth prince Junshu holds the military power and is stationed at the border all year round. However, he will definitely come back to participate in this sword-grabbing conference. I just don’t know if he is in Lin’an at this time.The remaining one is the Fifth Prince Junxi.It is not clear what Jun Xi's temperament is, but his mother and concubine are extremely favored, so his position in the palace is not weak.
Apart from these three princes, there is also an adult Emperor Ji, Zhao Guoyun and Emperor Ji Junwan.
Thinking of Jun Wan, Song Qinghuan's eyes turned cold, and she lowered her head to suppress the strangeness in her eyes.
Song Yi, Song Xuan, Song Yan and the others hurriedly greeted and thanked each other, and Song Qinghuan and Song Qingyi also followed suit.
Song Yan was the prince, so he naturally had to act like a prince at this time, pointing to several people and introducing them to Jun Che one by one.Jun Che smiled and nodded. When Song Qinghuan was finally introduced, there seemed to be a strange color flashing across his eyes, and then disappeared soon.
Jun Che's eyes flicked past everyone's eyes one by one, Fang turned sideways, smiling brightly, "Everyone must be extremely tired after a long journey. The Jian'an Courtyard has been prepared for you, please come in with me, princes and concubines. "
As he said that, he led the way and led a few people to the Jian'an courtyard in the backyard.
I don't want to, and I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I didn't walk very far, and I met a few people walking towards here from afar.
Seeing the person coming, Song Qinghuan's pupils shrank slightly, and his brows frowned.
How could it be such a coincidence to bump into this person so quickly? !
Who is it~ come and guess~
