The barbarian concubine: mistakenly provoking the evil king

"Knock, knock, knock."

It was the sound of beating wooden fish, but I saw a woman in plain clothes kneeling on the ground, her eyes closed, and her hands turned with Buddha beads made of sandalwood. Her face was slightly pale. If she had a sick face, although the candlelight in the temple was like rosy clouds, there was still no blood color on her face, and she looked elegant, vulgar and beautiful.

The door was gently pushed open, and the old wooden door creaked. Jiang Xuanli looked at the woman kneeling in front of the Buddha, angry and distressed. "If I don't get the news this time, are you going to hide it from me and directly enter the palace?" a few days ago, he received a secret report that the emperor was about to choose a concubine, and his elderly sister was among them, No one ever mentioned it to him. In a hurry, he rushed back to the capital from the imperial mausoleum day and night.

The sound of wooden fish stopped. For a long time, Jiang Yueying opened her eyes and filled with autumn water. "Brother, I've been ordered to guard the imperial mausoleum. How can I leave without permission?" she stood up, walked slowly to the table, held a cup in her hand and poured the tea in the pot, "Dad has suffered a lot from the fierce fight with the National Teacher Jiang Ping in recent years. Although the foundation of the Jiang family is stable, it will eventually fall down after such a long time. So do I want to bring down Jiang Ping, or suppress Jiang Ping all the time and make him unable to turn over."

"So, you want to enter the palace! You know, you are the daughter of the prime minister, and the emperor will give you favor. But once you get the favor, the enemy of our family will be more than Jiang Ping. The covetous Liu family, because of the existence of imperial concubine Liu, the Liu family's power has been expanding over the years, and the power of the imperial court has been gradually tripartite. If they work together, how can Jiang family survive Opportunity to go down? Sister, don't do anything stupid! "Jiang Xuanli's voice was unconsciously amplified, some out of control. Where could he still see his usual gentle appearance.

Compared with him, Jiang Yueying was much more calm. She moved her cup to him, "If my brother can consider these, the emperor will also think that, instead of the three pillars of the imperial court, which is not easy to check and balance, it is better to divide them into two shares and let them contain each other. Once Jiang Ping joins hands with the Liu family, the emperor must stand on our side and neither let one dominate nor immerse one. At that time, the emperor will be the best guarantee for our Jiang family."

With this cup of tea across his chest, Jiang Xuanli fell into a dilemma. "In fact, brother doesn't have to think so much. What I decide will never change easily." he seemed to know what he was thinking, "for me, Jiang Fu is good, I am good!"

Jiang Xuanli grabbed the cup, gathered his emotions, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a light smile, "that's what I said. How can I stop you again? You're going to enter the palace soon. I haven't been in the capital well in the imperial mausoleum these years. When I first came into the city, I saw lights and decorations on the streets. I'm afraid of death. There are lanterns tonight. Go out with me."

"Good!" she replied, and a beautiful arc finally rose from the corners of her mouth.

As night fell and the lanterns began to light, the noisy long street was bustling. All kinds of lanterns were hung on both sides, and the corresponding lantern riddles were hung under the lanterns. Jiang Xuanli picked up a lantern riddle and looked at his sister with a bad smile. "I've been away from home for several years, and I've never tested your homework. I want to test you today!"

"OK, but shouldn't we have some colorful heads!" Jiang Yueying thought about it and wrote it on her face with a smile. He had a faint bad hunch, but he opened his mouth and how to refuse, "of course, cough." he coughed a few times and carefully selected one, "listen."

"A knife in the heart."

"Yes."

"One leaf blinds the eyes"

"Phase."

"Defend the country."

"Guard"

The little servant girl beside Jiang Yueying smiled and kindly reminded, "young master, even I know these questions you have. How can it be difficult for my miss."

"Oh? Really? As you know, my sister doesn't seem to understand." Jiang Xuanli laughed. "Ha ha, the Guangdong eagle is really talented. My brother is willing to take advantage of it! Come on, what do you want."

"Brother." Jiang Yueying looked gloomy and said secretly in her heart, why do you have to be like this. When the conversation changed, she smiled, "can you give me everything my sister wants?"

"Of course!" Jiang Xuanli nodded.

Jiang Yueying pulled him to the lake. He thought he was going to put lanterns with him. Unexpectedly, she said, "well, do you see the girl on the bridge in front? I like the hairpin on her head. Go and ask for it for me!"

"What! This!"

"I'll give whatever I want!" Jiang Yueying was unhappy when he saw his brother's unwillingness.

"Oh, well, I'll talk to the girl about you!"

Seeing that Jiang Xuanli was far away, the little servant girl said, "why should miss embarrass the young master? The girl on the bridge is clearly Miss Fang. She has always had a bad temper. The young master doesn't know, and the young lady doesn't know?"

Jiang Yueying angrily complained, "I've been talkative since just now! Do I have to get your consent for what I do? How dare I take you into the palace.

The servant girl immediately stepped back and bowed her head, afraid to say anything.

"Let's go, let's go back!" the lantern night is very lively. Willows and willows swing in the wind by the lake. The lanterns in the lake are in pairs, which is the beauty of the day.
