Second-hand wife: Wang Ye's cute pet

Chapter 102 Grilled fish wins the king's heart

Just when Xuan Muqing was about to poke An Liuyan's chin, she suddenly opened her eyes.Xuan Muqing was so frightened that she immediately withdrew her hand like a thief.Embarrassed coughing a few times.

An Liuyan frowned, looked around, and was dumbfounded. "My lord, what are you doing?"

This tone made Xuan Muqing uncomfortable, but immediately returned to a calm state. "I'm just curious." Slowly looking directly into her eyes, he smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up. "Is your face real or fake?"

An Liuyan smiled lightly, stood up calmly, and looked around. "I didn't expect that there is such a place in the palace?"

"This is not the imperial palace." Xuan Muqing changed her melancholy face. "This is my only home."

Family?
An Liuyan sneered inwardly, not understanding what this man wanted to do.But he couldn't be too obvious on the face, so he could only pretend to be stupid.

"Your Majesty, you brought Liuyan to your home, is that what you want?"

Xuan Muqing didn't answer, and sat down slowly, fiddling with the tea set on the table with her long hands.An Liuyan also consciously sat opposite him, watching his skillful movements.Warm the pot with a soup cup, Ma Long enters the palace, washes the tea, brews, seals the pot, all in one go.

Divide the cup.

Xuan Muqing picked up the jade cups, smelled the fragrance, then slowly divided them into groups and put them on the saucers.Then, the jade liquid is returned to the pot, so that each cup has the same color, aroma and taste.

Divide pots and serve tea.

That tall man served tea to An Liuyan respectfully?

"Your Majesty." An Liuyan really didn't know whether he should take this thing or not.I thought he was just drinking it by himself, but who knew that the first cup was actually for her.

Xuan Muqing smiled lightly, placed the teacup in front of her, and said slowly. "Taste."

"Yes!" Replied in the tone of accepting the order, solemnly picked up the teacup, smelled the fragrance, and tasted it slowly.A faint fragrance enters the mouth, very comfortable feeling.Moreover, there is a hint of coolness, which is obviously a specialty of neighboring countries, mint tea.

Xuan Muqing kept looking at her, only to see that An Liuyan showed a satisfied expression after drinking the tea. "Well, is it so delicious!"

An Liuyan shook her head and smiled lightly. "Liuyan is lucky to be able to drink the tribute."

"Hahaha." Xuan Muqing laughed. "Princess Liuyan is really well-informed." He had shown this thing to the empress dowager before.

"The emperor specially asked someone to take me captive, just to treat Liu Yan to drink tea?"

"Of course not." Xuan Muqing smiled, but in the next second, she became extremely serious. "Which country is Princess Liuyan from?"

An Liuyan was taken aback for a moment. How should I answer this question?Was he testing her, or did he have other plans? "Liu Yan is naturally a native."

"Oh, this country." Xuan Muqing chuckled and took a sip of tea. "If I ask, military division, what country do you consider yourself to be at this moment?"

"Your Majesty, which country do you want me to treat myself as, then Liuyan is from that country." An Liuyan was helpless, and it seemed that he had been fooled by the tongue twister.

Xuan Muqing got up and went back to the window again. "Three days ago, Yeyue Kingdom further expanded its territory. Does Princess Liuyan know?"

An Liuyan's hand tightly holding the teacup, it seems that this is why Xuan Muqing called her here.Both her military adviser and Qu Shang were in the Moyang Dynasty, and Qu Moyuan was still fighting.Although they don't have the ability to understand Mo Yang at present, there is no guarantee that something will happen in the future, so Xuan Muqing thought.

"Your Majesty, the battlefield is filled with gunpowder and dust, and no one knows who will fall in the next second. This is the rule." An Liuyan stood up suddenly, and looked seriously at the man leaning against the window. "However, there is no permanent enemy on the battlefield. Now, isn't our monarch showing his friendship?"

"Really?" Xuan Muqing asked. "Then, may I ask Princess Liuyan, where did you learn the dance at the Hundred Flowers Banquet today?"

An Liuyan was a little dazed, not knowing what this person meant by changing the subject suddenly, but he replied calmly. "Liu Yan said that the dance was spread in your country. I was lucky enough to see a famous prostitute in our country dance once, so I will write it down."

"Well, let's leave it at that." Xuan Muqing rubbed her temples. There will always be disaster victims fleeing here due to the recent wars.It made him upset, and now his head started to hurt.

An Liuyan looked at the tiredness revealed between his brows, and felt strange in his heart.Force yourself to turn your head away from him.However, in his mouth, he still asked subconsciously.

"Your Majesty, it's cold in the night, you should stop standing by the window."

Xuan Muqing turned her head and glanced at An Liuyan. "Go back, I'll be here later."

"Yes." An Liuyan quickly walked out of the room as if fleeing.With her appearance like this, how could she be in the palace.Xuan Muqing didn't seem to say that she would send her off either.

On this side, Xuan Muqing looked up, and saw a woman sitting on a branch with a half-smile, tilting her head and looking at him.Xuan Muqing smiled lightly. "Princess Qushang, I just invited Princess Liuyan to sit down."

"Oh, then you told him to go back by himself?" Qu Chang sneered. "Is the emperor bullying us? Is this palace my sister can come and go at will?"

"I originally wanted Nie Long to send her back, but she doesn't want to be carried around by Nie Long again. I believe Princess Qushang will find a way to let him go back." After finishing speaking, she closed the window and turned off the lights.

Tonight is the last night to come here to rest.

An Liuyan was wondering what method he should think of to get back to the palace.A strange cry came to mind, and An Liuyan breathed a sigh of relief immediately.After a while, Qu Chang did a backflip and appeared in front of An Liuyan.

"Sister, you are in a mess." Qu Shang looked at her with a playful smile. "It's so difficult!"

"Go, you bastard came out and didn't tell me." An Liuyan shook his head. "Let's go, let's go, take me back quickly."

Early the next morning, An Liuyan and Qu Shang followed Aunt Jinse to pay respects to the Empress Dowager, asked some family questions, and shared some jokes.Then let them go back.Jinse walked ahead and told them some basic rules.Qu Chang was too lazy to listen, and looked around, as if there was nothing to see in the palace.

Suddenly, a bunch of eunuchs bent over to catch fish by the pond attracted her. "Sister, I want to go over and have a look, what's going on here?"

Jinse took a look and went back. "Back to the princess, it was cleaning the fish pond and fished out the dead fish. If you want to see it, this servant will take you there."

"No, no need, isn't Concubine Lan still looking for my sister? You take her there first. I'll go back by myself later. I don't know how to dance anyway, so I can't chat with them." Besides, she hates the concubine Lan very much. .

An Liuyan knew what she meant and shook her head helplessly. "Aunt Jinse, then, you can take Liuyan there."

"Princess Liuyan, this way please."

Seeing the two people walking away slowly, Qu Chang turned around immediately, walked behind a little eunuch, and kicked him lightly three times.Then he said very disgusted, so boring.

"Cut, it's boring."

Saying that, Qu Chang walked into the back of the rockery in the imperial garden with small steps, looking left and right.And the little eunuch who was kicked three times by her just now got up slowly, and sent the fish caught in the basin to where it should go.Then, twisting his body, he also got into the rockery.

On this side, the further he walked, the more An Liuyan felt something was wrong.This is obviously not the way to Lan Fei's residence, the further you go, the more desolate it feels.Moreover, it actually arrived at the back mountain?Here, it looks like a cold palace, but it is not a place in a cold palace.An Liuyan knew in her heart that Jin Se was probably going to take her to meet her master.

"Aunt Jinse, this is not the way to Lanfei."

Jinse nodded. "Princess Liuyan doesn't know something. Concubine Lan is currently drafting girls for the emperor. I guess I won't have time to see you until noon."

"But, this." An Liuyan made herself as scared as possible. She who didn't know the truth should be more scared, right?
"Princess, don't be afraid, Jinse just wants to show you someone." Jinse pushed open the rusty door. "Princess, go in, Jinse is waiting for you outside."

"This." An Liuyan frowned, glanced at Jinse, and nodded. "Ok."

Strolling into the gate, stepping on the path paved with stone slabs, An Liuyan slowly walked towards the bamboo basket house with the gate tightly closed.The surrounding area is overgrown with weeds and desolate, not like a place where people live.

Push open the door, creak.

Fortunately, the room is relatively clean, and there are simple three dishes, one soup, and a bowl of rice on the table.An old acquaintance from the past, Xia Jingyan was wrapped in a very thick blanket, sitting at the table, eating slowly mouthfuls of food.

"If the princess doesn't dislike her, she can sit anywhere."

An Liuyan wasn't too polite and just sat down.

"You are, Xia promised?" An Liuyan smiled lightly. "Liu Yan thought that you would always 'teach' me through Aunt Jinse, but I didn't expect to see you so soon."

Xia Jingyan was slightly surprised, but then recovered, her weak and pale lips slightly kissed.

"The princess is indeed wise." Putting down her chopsticks, Xia Jingyan gently wiped the corners of her mouth. "Since the princess already knows my purpose, then don't mind me being open and honest."

"Xia promised, please say yes."

"I want you to help me and remove Concubine Lan from the stage, that's all."

The draft is a huge job to expand the harem.Concubine Lan, as the head of the harem other than the empress dowager, had no choice but to personally select such a group of people.It's just that she didn't expect that the daughter of the newly appointed minister of the Ministry of War would be so bold that she would pretend to be a beautiful girl whenever she found a maid.

"Have you found this person?" The huge Xinyang Hall was full of beautiful women, and there was a trembling woman kneeling in front of the hall.Shen Xinlan was already irritable, did the minister of the Ministry of War not take the draft too seriously?Therefore, the roaring sound became louder.

"Go back to your mother, the person has already been brought."

While talking, the two Royal Forest Army escorted a woman up.Shen Xinlan held back her anger, stepped down from the stage, the closer she got, the more weird she felt.

"You, you." Shen Xinlan pointed at the woman kneeling on the ground, she was speechless in surprise. "Concubine Ning?" Shen Xinlan held her chest and took a deep breath. "No, you're not, you're not."

Take a closer look, and sure enough, this woman is just a daze, just a daze.Her eyes are bigger than An Liuyan's, and her lips are not as beautiful as An Liuyan's.However, if you don't look carefully, it still looks a lot like it.

"You are, Jin Baguio?"

"Lady Concubine Lan, this matter is solely Bi Yao's attention, it has nothing to do with my father and Xiaorou, please don't implicate others, Concubine Lan."

Shen Xinlan looked at her, but she looked like Concubine Ning.If you make good use of this appearance, the emperor's heart will not need to worry.Putting on a gentle smile, he personally helped up the awe-inspiring Jin Baguio and patted her hand.

"If you are such a hero among women, how can I have the heart to punish you? Since you have already entered the palace, then, let's count it as a show girl. This girl is not bad."
