After arriving at the Princess's residence and being informed by the doorman, Wen Jin walked through the gate, passed through the three courtyards, walked through the undulating corridors, and walked towards the Princess's bedroom with familiarity.
Yan Qing was bathing.
The mist was curling, and her delicate body with skin as white as cream was completely submerged in the hot water with petals floating around. Her arms were gently resting on the bathtub, and her beauty closed her eyes lazily.
Wen Jin walked in and saw this scene, and her steps paused slightly.
"Come here." The woman's lazy and indifferent voice sounded, with a natural command.
Wen Jin walked over.
The young man was tall and thin, with a natural elegance. At this moment, he looked at Yan Qing with a gentle gaze, and the arc of his lips seemed to be measured with a finger, and he smiled lightly: "Your Highness."
"I don't plan to marry Xiao Jinghan." Yan Qing raised his eyes and looked at him, his voice became more casual, as if asking casually, "Wen Jin, do you want to be my consort?"
Consort?
Wen Jin's smile froze slightly, and then he raised a clean smile again: "Your Highness."
"Kneel down."
Wen Jin took a step back, lifted his robe and knelt on the ground without hesitation, lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and his posture was respectful and elegant.
"Kneel closer, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
Wen Jin moved closer.
"Will you be worthy?" Yan Qing turned aside, stretched out his hand to hook his lower body, and smiled mockingly, "Will you be worthy? You have the final say?"
Wen Jin lowered his eyes: "Yes."
Slender fingers traced his face, Yan Qing's voice was lazy: "Will you be able to be the prime minister?"
Wen Jin said: "Yes."
"Being my consort is an insult to you?"
Wen Jin still said two words: "Yes."
Yan Qing looked at him quietly, and after a moment, he slowly closed his eyes and leaned against the bathtub: "What decree did Yan Chen ask you to convey?"
The current emperor Yan Chen, the sixth son of the previous emperor, ascended the throne at the end of December before the previous year, and his imperial title was Zhaoming.
Because the new emperor was in poor health when he ascended the throne, the previous emperor left a will, ordering the youngest brother Yan Cang to be the regent, temporarily taking over the power of regent until the emperor's health was restored.
Because the regent held military power, the late emperor was worried that he would monopolize power without any constraints, so he ordered Yan Qing to be the eldest princess of Suzaku, in charge of the Qilin Guard, and protect the emperor.
The Suoyong royal family is now in a three-legged situation, with the emperor and his royalist civil and military officials, the regent and his cavalry, and the eldest princess and her Qilin Guard.
The royalist officials are headed by Xiao Chongshan and Wen Jin.
The Xiao family is loyal to the emperor and is the most trusted military general to counter the eldest princess Yan Qing. In his previous life, Xiao Jinghan did a great job in completing the tasks assigned to him by the emperor.
Wen Jin is the emperor's weapon to deal with the regent. Such a young and gentle nobleman was promoted by the emperor as an exception and became the first-rank prime minister, which is definitely his fault.
However, Yan Qing knew very well that although the new emperor was indeed in good health, the previous emperor did not appoint the regent for this reason, but because the four kings guarding the fiefdom were becoming increasingly powerful, and the new emperor was suppressing them. Only the regent could suppress their ambitions.
The late emperor was thoughtful and meticulous. His wills made the people he feared check and balance each other, giving his son enough time to consolidate the throne. However...
"The emperor ordered your highness to enter the palace immediately." Wen Jin said, adding, "Take Xiao Jinghan with you."
"Xiao Jinghan was imprisoned in the dungeon. He will not be able to leave the princess's mansion before he dies." Yan Qing's voice was indifferent and ruthless, "Do you know why?"
Wen Jin lowered his eyebrows: "Because he cheated on you and betrayed your highness."
Although they have not yet married, and there is no cheating on you, the marriage granted by the late emperor's will cannot be changed. The two people are already in a nominal husband and wife relationship, and the only thing missing is the formality of marriage.
"The little things he did are not worth my worrying about." Yan Qing's voice was cold, "Before my father passed away, he gave him a task."
Task?
Wen Jin's fingertips trembled.
"Let this palace be poisoned slowly, and all my skills will be gradually abolished, and I will not be able to live for seven years." Yan Qing raised her lips slightly, "This palace's good father, before his death, was confident in this palace, and tried his best to let this palace die at a suitable time."
Seven years is enough for the regent to weaken the power of the four kings, and it is also enough for the current emperor to sit firmly on the throne and win the hearts of the people. At that time, it was only her, the eldest princess, who was afraid that the regent Yan Cang would not be able to escape.
Now that the new emperor has been on the throne for three months, according to the previous emperor's intention, Yan Qing and Xiao Jinghan must get married within a hundred days, otherwise they have to observe mourning and wait for another three years-however, whether it is the new emperor or the Xiao family, they are willing to wait for three years.
So their marriage is actually already in preparation, but they have never expected that the eldest princess would take her directly to the brothel to catch the adulterer.
After the wrong move, Yan Qing had a legitimate excuse to break up the marriage.
Xiao Jinghan will never have another chance to poison her in this life.
Wen Jin pursed her thin lips, and it was unknown what she was thinking. Her hands hanging by her side were clenched in a subtle way.
All her skills were wasted...
Yan Qing rushed out of the bathtub, raised her hands and waved them quickly. The strong airflow rolled up her robe hanging on the rack. When her graceful figure left the bathtub, the robe had already been draped over her body, completely covering her flawless body.
Her long black hair reached her waist, and her slender body was wrapped in a scarlet robe. Although it was tightly wrapped and breathable, it had a few more irresistible flirtatious charms.
There was a faint fragrance floating in the air, which was the smell Yan Qing liked.
Wen Jin sniffed the breath greedily, and came back to his senses from the past. His breathing slowly stabilized, his eyebrows and eyes were light and gentle, and he looked as peaceful as usual.
He still looked peaceful and calm.
However, Yan Qing turned his head to look at Wen Jin, and his red lips hooked up a light arc that charmed everyone, making his face bright and beautiful: "Wen Jin is upset."
Wen Jin took a very shallow breath and kept his breathing steady: "No."
"Wen Jin, I remember I taught you the rules before." Yan Qing walked in front of him with light lotus steps, bent down and lifted his lower body, and curved the corners of his mouth, "Lying in front of me... but you will be punished."
Wen Jin's breathing was rapid, and his voice finally became more stable: "Yes."
Yan Qing's slender fingers slowly Slowly moving, gently stroking his perfect lips: "Since this mouth always says things against one's will, just sew it up with a needle."
Wen Jin became more obedient: "Listen to your Highness."
"This palace likes to hear you call 'Your Highness'."
Wen Jin lowered his eyes and changed his words gently: "Listen to the master."
Yan Qing looked at his face carefully, and in fact, to be more precise, Xiao Jinghan was certainly a weapon used to deal with her, but Wen Jin was trained by her own hands, a wolf who rebelled against the master.
She carefully trained and taught him personally, and spent a lot of money to find a famous teacher to teach one-on-one in piano, chess, calligraphy, and military strategy. His words and deeds were strictly trained according to the standards of nobles. Looking at the Celestial Empire, no noble family dared to compare with Wen Jin in appearance, temperament, and mind and strategy.
His road to power was also supported by her, and she carefully paved the way for him.
But such a person betrayed her with a smile and gave her a fatal blow.
Yan Qing quietly looked at the young man in front of him who looked gentle and harmless, his eyes were cold, and the arc of his lips was cold and frightening: "Wen Jin."
"No."
"If a pet kills its master, how do you think it should be punished?"
Wen Jin's fingertips trembled slightly, and his handsome face was gentle and respectful: "It should be severely punished."
"How to punish it?"
"Pull out its teeth and knock out its teeth, so that it can no longer attack its master."
Yan Qing smiled when he heard this, but the smile reached his eyes: "Really?"
Wen Jin lowered his eyes.
"In that case, I will do as you say." Yan Qing said, with a slightly more noticeable coldness in her voice, "Move into the Princess's Mansion before tomorrow evening. I have prepared a gift for you."
After saying this, Yan Qing turned around to tidy up her clothes. In a moment, she changed into a red long skirt, tied a red silk belt, and was dazzling and brilliant.
The slender waist was so slender that it could be grasped in one hand. The seemingly delicate body contained a terrifying power.
"You can go to see Xiao Jinghan." Yan Qing turned and walked out. "After seeing him, you can go back to the palace to report. Just say that I was rejected here. Yan Chen will naturally have no way to deal with you."
Wen Jin raised his eyes and saw a dazzling red figure disappearing from his sight, making him dizzy.
