Hello Chang’an

Li Lu was about to leave Beijing, but he went to Dayun Temple to see Chang Sui Ning. Naturally, she wanted to attract more attention.

But he didn't expect this news to come.

That girl clearly rejected Li Lu before, but now she agreed to Li Lu's proposal to marry him again in order to leave Beijing smoothly?

This is the strategy chosen by "Chang Sui Ning" to leave the capital... Is he going to choose to turn against Prince Rong and his son at this juncture?

She couldn't help but think of some old things. Ah Shang had a special affinity with Prince Rong in the past. The two had a close relationship. Ah Shang was closer to her uncle Wang than to her father.

King Rong even knew Ashang’s secret.

It doesn’t matter who Chang Sui Ning turns to, but Ah Shang is different...

Thinking of this, Emperor Shengce's eyebrows furrowed deeper. If she went to Yizhou, she would not let that girl go at all.

But for the sake of caution, she sent people to Dayun Temple again to verify the authenticity of the news. Soon, news came back that Chang Suining took his maid out of the back door of Dayun Temple alone and met with Prince Rong in private. Prince, the two of them took a boating trip together at night.

The Emperor's eyes grew colder.

Do you really want to choose Prince Rong and stand against her?

Soon, the Holy Emperor summoned several officials into the palace.

"Prince Rong is about to leave the capital and return to Yizhou. Before that, I want to select a girl of suitable age from the capital to marry him. This happy event will be brought back to Yizhou, and it may also comfort Princess Rong's illness."

Several ministers agreed.

Wei Shuyi was thinking, it was not surprising that the saint wanted to marry Crown Prince Rong, but he was so anxious all of a sudden... Could it be that there was some movement from Crown Prince Rong?

Soon, the chamberlain listed out the list of candidates that everyone had discussed.

The Holy Book Emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the folded list.

She has been busy day and night recently, and the Manna Palace has never been quiet for a moment. She has not paid attention to this matter for a while, but now she can no longer wait.

The choice of candidate was important, but more importantly, she needed to cut off Li Lu's opportunity to ask for permission to marry Chang Sui Ning in advance.

also…

Choosing Yizhou and leaving Beijing, that girl's move has given her the answer, and she may no longer have to wait and see.

In this case, in order to prevent another accident from happening somewhere she couldn't see, she had to find a more secure way to keep the other person behind.

"I have drawn up a decree on my behalf. The Princess of Gu'an will be married to Tuyuhun. I am short of a female official to serve me. The reputation of the girl in the Hussar General's palace has spread far and wide. I am very happy about it. I think she will be qualified for the position of the female history of Ganlu Palace -"

Emperor Shengce explained: "The decree will be sent to the Chang family tomorrow, and the girls from the Chang family will enter the palace to accompany them."

The internal servants attended and were ordered to retreat to prepare the order.

Wei Shuyi was slightly shocked. Chang Langjun was still injured, so the saint was eager to make Chang Chang's wife into the palace as a female official... Why is this?

In order to keep Mrs. Chang by your side, to strengthen General Chang's heart?

Intuition tells Wei Shuyi that the reason why the saint pays so much attention to it is probably not that simple...

He wanted to send a message to Chang Sui Ning first, but he remembered that his mother had just said today that she and her brother had gone to Dayun Temple to stay for a while, but at this time there was already a curfew, and he could not let people leave the city without being noticed.

Wei Shuyi was walking on the way out of the palace, thinking about Emperor Shengce's attitude towards Chang Sui Ning, and felt that there was something strange hidden in it that he couldn't see clearly.

The origin of this strangeness is Cui Ling'an's previous sentence "I'm sorry, I can't talk about this matter"? Is it the secret hidden in the Goddess Tower in Dayun Temple?

While his thoughts were cluttered, Wei Shuyi turned his head subconsciously and looked in the direction of Dayun Temple in the distance.

He didn't know the key, but she must know it if she was in it. So, would she have a way to deal with it?

…

It was a windless night, and a bright moon reflected on the quiet lake, like a quiet painting.

A painting boat pushed through the water waves and slowly tore the painting apart.

In the boat, Li Lu cooked tea himself and pushed an exquisite tea bowl in front of Chang Sui Ning: "Lu is used to going to bed early, so he never drinks tea at night, but since Mrs. Chang is here tonight, I should accompany her."

Chang Suining: "..." It was just a cup of tea, but he was actually made to express his feelings about sharing poisonous wine and risking his life to accompany a gentleman.

After the two drank a bowl of tea, Li Lu asked a servant to come into the boat to answer the question. The servant was of average build, about forty years old. After bowing, he knelt down and sat aside. He looked respectful and restrained. .

Chang Suining recognized this person by the lights inside the boat.

It turned out to be him, Fan Ou.

Li Lu: "Ms. Chang, this is the servant that my father sent to celebrate the birthday of King Huainan."

House servant?

This is no ordinary domestic servant.

Others didn't know it, but she knew that this man had been her little uncle Wang's right-hand man in his early years. Although his skills were ordinary, he was very familiar with some heresy. Was it really just a birthday celebration when Prince Rong's Palace ordered this person to go to Prince Huainan's Palace?

Thinking that the death of the King of Huainan had made the situation in Jiangnan even more chaotic, and that his son Li Yi had become a variable. After looking at the person in front of him, Chang Sui Ning almost had the answer in his heart, and his fingers holding the tea bowl felt a little cold.

The servant Fan Ou noticed the gaze and raised his eyes slightly to look at the girl. Their eyes met for a moment, and a vague strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

Thinking about the identity and use of the girl from the Chang family, he asked respectfully: "I wonder if there is anything you need to answer from me?"

Chang Suining asked him some things about Chang Kuo, and he answered everything he knew.

Later, Chang Suining asked about the war in Yangzhou, and he answered them all seriously.

Finally, Chang Suining drank a bowl of tea before talking about Yizhou with Li Lu. She wanted to take the opportunity to ask about the affairs of Prince Rong's Mansion, but it would be useless if she didn't listen.

But Li Lu was very cautious and did not talk to her in depth. He did a good job of avoiding some things that were not suitable to be disclosed openly and did not reveal too much to her.

After talking like this for nearly an hour, the tea stove made the cabin a little hot, so Chang Suining went outside the cabin to get some fresh air.

A moment later, Li Lu appeared behind her and said slowly: "Concerning the matter in Yizhou, Mrs. Chang, please don't blame Lu for her reservations. In the current situation, Lu has told Mrs. Chang everything that can be said."

"Those questions that I am not able to answer at this time, when I go to Yizhou later, Mrs. Chang can go and see them in person, and I will naturally have the answers."

Chang Suining looked at the lake ahead and nodded.

The waterway in front is winding and turns into a corner. The vegetation on both sides is withered but still dense, silently hidden in the night.

After all, she did not intend to visit the lake, and the boat sailed very slowly. Li Lu walked up to her and handed something to her with a smile: "This is the engagement letter written by Lu himself. Please accept it, Mrs. Chang."

Chang Suining looked over.

"According to the etiquette, the letter of engagement should be sent from Prince Rong's Mansion to the elders of your mansion. The ancestral gift cannot be revoked, but this letter of engagement is written to Mrs. Chang alone." The young man said with a clear smile in his eyes: "Because in my eyes, Mrs. Chang Unlike other women, Mrs. Chang’s approval is required for this marriage.”

"To this day, I still wonder whether Lu's sincerity is enough for Mrs. Chang to accept this letter of appointment?"

After a while, Chang Suining raised his hand to take it.

A smile overflowed from the young man's brows: "I am lucky to be able to walk with Mrs. Chang in the future."

"Only those who share the same goals can go together." The girl's earnest questioning voice echoed on the night lake, "May I ask Prince Rong's house, what path do you follow?"

"It will stop the war in the world and bring peace to the country."

"Really?" the girl asked again, "Why did Prince Rong's Mansion take the lead in quarreling with his brothers, assassinating the King of Huainan, and making the war in Jiangnan get even more out of control?"

There was sudden silence.

Before the smile on Li Lu's face could dissipate, he looked at the girl in front of him and his eyes flashed very quickly.

Seeing this, Chang Sui Ning had no doubts in his mind.

Sure enough, it was Prince Rong's Mansion who used the birthday celebration trip to assassinate King Huainan.

At this moment, the sound of a long sword being unsheathed was heard. Fan Ou, who was guarding the hatch of the ship, pulled out the sword and stared closely at the girl who made the shocking words.

The other two followers brought by Li Lu were also on alert.

Chang Sui Ning glanced at the long sword pointed at him and asked Li Lu: "The prince invited me to go on a boat trip. The matter discussed was secret, so I didn't even bring a female envoy with him. However, the prince secretly prepared a sword. This Is this the prince’s sincerity?”

"Ms. Chang, I misunderstood, it's a servant..." Li Lu narrowed his eyes, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly saw a dagger across his neck.

"Fortunately, I'm not sincere, so it's just a courtesy."

As he spoke, Chang Suining quickly controlled Li Lu with his other hand, walked around behind him, and asked him to stand in front of him as a shield.

Fan Ou and others were shocked.

"Let go of the prince!"

"Why is Mrs. Chang like this?" Li Lu put the cold and sharp blade against his neck and said softly: "Even if Mrs. Chang is misunderstood by Prince Rong's Mansion, I will not let anyone hurt Mrs. Chang at all."

Before waiting for the girl's response, he turned slightly and asked, "Or is it that Madam Chang's purpose of coming here is to make an enemy of Prince Rong's Palace?"

"Our Chang family is weak. Naturally, I have no intention of being an enemy of the dignified Prince Rong's palace, and I have never taken the initiative to cause offence." Chang Sui Ning said: "It was the prince who repeatedly forced me to do so, threatening the lives of my father and brother. The Chang family has to choose a path between being an enemy and playing chess—"

"The Chang family doesn't want to make enemies, but they will never let others hold chess pieces for them." The girl's voice in my ear was unhurried, even calm and casual: "So, I took the liberty of thinking of a compromise."

As the voice fell, Li Lu didn't have time to think carefully about what she meant. He suddenly felt a lightness in his body, and then he fell over uncontrollably, falling down with her.

"thump!"

"Your Majesty!"

The sound of falling into the water sounded, Fan Ou's face darkened, he dropped the long knife in his hand, and immediately jumped into the water.

The other two people jumped down soon after.

However, that girl has excellent aquatic properties. If it weren't for their prince's dragging down... no, the hostage, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to catch up at all!

Even so, Fan Ou spent a lot of effort to get close to him. He was good at using hidden weapons, but the girl seemed to know it in advance, and kept using the prince as a barrier, so that he could not take action at all.

You can't use hidden weapons, you can only attack at close range to **** the prince back!

But after a few moves, the girl grabbed the eldest son of his family with one hand and fought with him with the other, but he couldn't get the upper hand. The girl seemed to be very familiar with the way to fight the enemy in the water!

Seeing Li Lu choking in pain and knowing that he was weak, Fan Ou became anxious. When he found the opportunity to punch the girl from the side, there was a poison dart between his fingers.

I wish you all a happy Children's Day in advance, and a reward of 3,000 words will be given to the leader! Slowly paying off the debt_(:з　∠)_

It’s a new month soon, so keep asking for monthly tickets! (づ￣3￣)づ╭
