Chapter 159 Princess: The Beaten Old Fox Gets Dazed

Concubine Luo reported the matter of Fengwoya to the Empress Dowager in detail, and at the end she wrote a letter to the emperor who was in the capital, and sent someone to rush back to Beijing.

The Empress Dowager stayed with the two of them and ate dinner with Xi Fu. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she drove them back.

Xifu was holding Concubine Luo's hand, chatting with her side by side, Qin Shou took a step behind, walking behind, Liugong'e was farther away.

As soon as the two returned to the courtyard, they saw a slender lady standing at the gate of the courtyard. Concubine Luo took a closer look, and it wasn't Lian Lingyu who it was.

Lian Lingyu's sharp eyes saw Concubine Luo from afar, she immediately stepped forward and knelt down again.

Concubine Luo's face darkened in an instant, and she didn't see the murderous intent flashing in Qin Shou's eyes who was walking behind.

Xi Fu frowned, seeing Concubine Luo was displeased, she waved her Liu Gong'e to come up, and ordered, "This person came in like this? Get out!"

When Lian Lingyu sneaked in, she had already guessed that this pedestrian was an extraordinary person, so now she begged pitifully, "The girl was saved by her benefactor, and the girl just wanted to repay her kindness, and she has no other intentions."

Xi Fu had a small face, and her round eyes under her bangs were rarely cold, "Repaying your favor? I don't think you are repaying your favor, but you seem to be relying on it. You still haven't thrown it out for me."

She imitated Concubine Luo's usual appearance and was stern.

Her Liu Gong'e listened to the order, not to use Concubine Luo's people to take action, and immediately stepped forward, one on the left, one on the left, and wanted to throw Lian Lingyu out.

At this time, Qin Shou said in a rare way, "Since she insists on repaying her kindness, the princess might as well stay here, and it would be good to do a rough job of watering and sweeping the floor."

Concubine Luo and Xi Fu suddenly turned their heads to look at him, their expressions were not very good.

Qin Shou didn't explain much, but just glanced at Lian Lingyu indifferently, "There are people who are rushing to have sex with the princess, why should the princess refuse."

Lian Lingyu, who was kneeling, was still in the shock of the "princess" at this moment. She really didn't expect the lady in front of her to be such a high-status, and then her face was buried with a kind of inevitability. .

"Yes, maidservant is willing." Now, even maidservant shouted.

Concubine Luo sneered, "If you want to be my maidservant, then you must be blessed."

After saying this, she yelled coquettishly, "Shouyang, since she is stubborn, I will arrange for her to work as a cow and a horse."

Shouyang, who was wearing palace attire, came forward to answer, she stared at Lian Lingyu sharply, and said coldly, "I still don't want to thank the princess for her kindness."

Lian Lingyu's palms were almost bleeding, and she kowtowed to Concubine Luo with a grateful look.

Concubine Luo ignored her and went straight into the yard. She asked Xifu to go back to her room, but turned around and said to Qin Shou who was going to the next room, "Please also invite my son-in-law and my son-in-law. I have something to say to my son-in-law."

Qin Shou paused, then nodded, turned around and followed.

The two entered the wing room where Concubine Luo stayed, and the maids around her were guarding outside. Concubine Luo raised her head and asked with a cold expression, "I don't know when the son-in-law is so sympathetic to jade?"

Qin Shou picked up the chair by himself and sat down. He flipped his robe and said casually, "It's not a bad thing to put Lian Lingyu under your nose. Kyushu will not harm the princess."

Concubine Luo sneered at these words, "If the son-in-law doesn't say anything, I will find a reason to kill her tomorrow."

Qin Shou pursed his thin lips and said after a while, "Princess, you should think about it. In a private army village, it is not the so-called banditry. How can you talk about robbing people and suppressing the village, and even the people in Fengwoling don't know about it?" There are bandits on the cliff."

Concubine Luo's heart skipped a beat, because at first Lian Lingyu rushed to Qin Shou, so she didn't think much about it. Looking at the situation at that time, Lian Lingyu felt that Qin Shou, who was probably a man, was easier to talk to, and She is a woman, so she can't be in charge, so she obviously turned around at that time and knelt down in front of Qin Shou.

Suddenly, she suddenly said, "Is she from the two kings of leisure?"

Qin Shou didn't nod his head, and didn't deny it, he just poured herbal tea to drink by himself, and stopped talking when he answered.

Concubine Luo thought about it, no matter what Lian Lingyu's identity was, it seemed that the only way to feel at ease was to keep her under her nose and stare at her.

After this matter was figured out, Concubine Luo crossed the river and demolished the bridge. She carried a lamp to chase away people, and said, "My palace is about to be resettled, so it's better for the son-in-law to go back earlier."

And since the Queen Mother is still here, she is not worried at all about Qin Shou daring to mess around.

Sure enough, Qin Shou nodded and reminded Concubine Luo, "The army will be dispatched early in the morning, princess, don't forget the time."

Then the robe fluttered and turned away.

Concubine Luo thought for a while on the Arhat couch, and the octagonal palace lanterns in the wing room were leisurely lit, and then she called Shouyang in and said, "Pay more attention to Lian Lingyu, I will keep an eye on you."

Shouyang nodded, "Yes, the maidservant has written it down."

Only then did Liugong'e file in, and she and Concubine Luo washed and bathed, applied pearl and jade crumbs to the face, and condensed floral dew all over the body.

Shouyang didn't wake her up, Ling Mingyu and Ji Xia lightly carried her onto the bed, and then turned off a few palace lanterns, while she squatted on the outer couch with her clothes on for a while.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, the east was only pale, and the morning light was dim.

The army of the Vermilion Birds outside Fengwo Ridge set off, and half an hour later, Concubine Luo's golden chariot and the Empress Dowager's Luan drove out of the city, heading towards the capital.

This road couldn't be more peaceful, Concubine Luo counted the time, with the Empress Dowager and Xifu mother and son, they walked all the way to visit the mountains and rivers, and when they encountered bustling towns, they must go in for a few days.

Shangguan Xiao proposed several times that he wanted the army to return to the capital first, but Concubine Luo refuted them and went back. She just said, if there are more assassins, who can take it?
Shangguan Xiao was speechless, his face was blushing, and he couldn't find an excuse to refute.

Therefore, the tens of thousands of Suzaku troops escorted the Queen Mother and the others, but the daily journey was only a few miles, and they were as slow as an old ox wrecking a cart, so no one dared to complain.

Concubine Luo is also generous to the Suzaku army. Whenever she goes to a town, she will definitely book the best restaurant in the city, and reward the army with fine wine and delicious food every day.

Regarding her corrosive behavior, the Queen Mother only smiled and did not criticize. Even Qin Shou happily enjoyed the army, Shangguan Xiaoben was still a bit scrupulous, but after a few times, he didn't worry about it. He and Qin Shou called brothers and sisters together.

Only Xifu felt that her elder sister was really dark-hearted, and she didn't see her coming. A sugar-coated cannonball arrived in the capital. No one may remember this army, but they must remember the prestige of Concubine Luo and the eldest princess.

Concubine Luo was spending money like water, but her memorial to destroy Fengwoya arrived in the capital.

In the memorial, she didn't mention much about the private army, but simply talked about the victorious scenery of her first expedition in her life.

The next morning after Emperor Xi Chaosheng received the memorial, he asked the eunuchs around him to read Concubine Luo's memorial several times in front of civil and military officials.

Then, amidst the compliments from the courtiers who didn't know whether they were sincere or not, he rewarded many rare and valuable things to the Princess Mansion in the name of Princess Luo's incomparable intelligence. Stance.

It was also decreed that the Suzaku army who went to Lan'an to meet the Queen Mother should be rewarded with a good life. They will not return to the camp after half a month of recuperation because of their hard work and great achievements.

After the edict, Shangguan who also received Shangguan Xiao's secret report was stunned for a while!
