Because of the injury, the date with Gong Chuli had to be postponed to today. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was almost noon and the carriage of the princess's mansion slowly drove to the edge of Linhuai Lake, where a delicate and elegant painting boat was parked. Su Qingluan got out of the carriage and saw Gong Chuli, dressed in a pear-white wide-sleeved Luo skirt, sitting in a pear-white wide-sleeved Luo skirt in the lakeside pavilion not far away, sitting behind him with two maidservants waiting from time to time, and more than a dozen guards in ordinary clothes but with extraordinary momentum standing next to the carriage parked not far away, a one-eyed groom.

But Su Qingluan found that even if the dozen or so guards all went up, they were no match for the one-eyed groom.

Walking towards the pavilion, the people in the pavilion naturally also saw Su Qingluan's carriage and horses coming in a hurry, and when Su Qingluan walked towards her, Gong Chuli got up to greet her.

When he got closer, Su Qingluan apologized in his mouth and said, "I made an appointment with the third princess, but I made the guests wait for a long time, is it mine." "He said that he owed himself to make amends.

"Where," Gong Chuli hurriedly grabbed Su Qingluan's arm and said with a smile, "It's Chu Li who is greedy for the beautiful scenery of Jingjing, and he can't help but come early, but let the eldest princess misunderstand and feel guilty, it's Chu Li's." ”

"Okay, since we're all right, let's not push back here, all the good time is wasted on these false gifts. Su Qingluan has never cared about these etiquettes, and when she meets Gong Chuli, a girl who gives her some appreciation, she naturally won't twist.

After Gong Chuli found her to cooperate, her subordinates began to collect all the news about Gong Chuli, including Gong Qiaohan, the fifth princess of Nanchen, and after taking over Xiaoyaowei, the information on the two of them was more detailed, so she still had some appreciation for Gong Chuli.

In some ways, Gong Chuli is somewhat similar to her, not so much that Gong Chuli wants the position of Empress Nan Chen, but that she is more interested in the future of Nan Chen, if Nan Chen develops better in the hands of Gong Qiaohan than in her hands, then Gong Chuli will definitely assist Gong Qiaohan to become the Empress of Nan Chen.

As for her Su Qingluan, she wants to work hard to help her father and Yiwen protect the country of Dongjing, so that the people of Dongjing can live a happy and prosperous life, so in the general interests of the country, the two of them are very similar.

"Yes, the eldest princess said politely. "It's the first time Gong Chuli has seen such an interesting woman as Su Qingluan, her status is noble, but she is as unruly as a man, is it really because she dances with knives and guns all day long?

"Since you think what I said is polite, then we don't want the princess to come to the princess, I call you Chu Li, you call me Qingluan. Su Qingluan smiled and spoke, which also represented the sincerity of this cooperation.

When Gong Chuli heard this, she didn't object, "That's no better." ”

"It's windy by the lake, so let's get on the boat, please. Su Qingluan smiled and raised his hand to make a gesture of please.

"Let's go. Gong Chuli was also smiling.

Su Qingluan and Gong Chuli got on the painting boat, the painting boat began to move slowly, and the guards brought by the two also stood on the decks around the painting boat, with solemn expressions.

The two entered the painting boat and sat down at separate tables, and the beautiful and respectful maid rushed in, put the fruit plate and fragrant tea and dim sum on the table in front of them one by one, and then silently retreated.

Raising their hands, the two maids who had been following Gong Chuli quietly followed and withdrew, while the maids brought by Su Qingluan did not follow up at all. Gong Chuli understood that this was Su Qingluan's sincerity, and they really didn't need a third person to be present for their conversation.

Su Qingluan raised the wine glass in his hand and saluted Gong Chuli, "I'm really sorry, I made an appointment to visit the lake a few days ago but missed the appointment because of my reasons, this glass of wine can be regarded as making amends to you." After speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in his hand.

Hearing this, Gong Chuli hurriedly smiled and said, "Where, Qingluan is serious, I know that you must have something important, and it doesn't hurt to meet today." After speaking, he drank the wine. Although she said that, she also stayed in Jingjing for more than ten days, and after a long time, I am afraid that some people on Nan Chen's side will start to sit still. And there is no reason for her to stay in Jingjing all the time, so she is also very anxious about this meeting.

Su Qingluan said with a straight face, "I still have some things today, and you and I have probably made it clear in the eldest princess's mansion that day, so there is no need to detour." ”

"Exactly," Gong Chuli also meant, "Tomorrow is the ceremony for you to canonize the eldest princess of Jing'an, and after tomorrow, I have no reason to stay in Dajing anymore, so let's discuss the details directly today!"

Su Qingluan was very satisfied with Gong Chuli's directness, she had never liked people who procrastinated, "I don't know about your plan to deal with Gong Xuelian, so it's better for you to hear it." ”

Gong Chuli nodded when she heard this, and slowly said her plan: "Gong Xuelian is now trying to find a way to marry the princes and princes of the other three kingdoms, and wants to increase her bargaining chips from the huge power of her husband's family." ”

Gong Xuelian's reputation and power in Nanchen have gradually declined in recent years, and many ministers who support her have been retained by Gong Chuli and the fifth princess, and even Queen Nanchen has no trust in her before. So she began to get anxious, Queen Nan Chen's body is still quite tough, and it is impossible to say who the future heir will be in this way, so she must quickly increase her power and win in the subsequent battle for the throne.

"So my plan is divided into two parts, my fifth sister and I try to get rid of her influence in Nanchen, and the other part is to prevent her from marrying or cooperating with the other three countries. Gong Chuli slowly said his plan.

Once Gong Xuelian marries another country, with her brain, it is very likely that Nan Chen will be annexed by another country at that time, so she must not be allowed to succeed.

After listening to Gong Chuli's words, Su Qingluan couldn't help frowning slightly, and was a little embarrassed, "Dajing, I can guarantee that nothing goes wrong, but Western Qin and Northern Qi..."

In fact, for Gong Chuli's deal with Gong Xuelian, she can not interfere at all, and the infighting between the princesses of Nanchen is beneficial and harmless to Dongjing and the other two countries. However, if Western Qin and Northern Qi intervened in this matter and took the opportunity to strengthen any country, it would be a threat to Dongjing, and now the situation of the four countries is very good, and there is no need to change anything.

So she will definitely stop Gong Xuelian, but this is a cooperation between the two countries, and she can't be too proactive.

Here Gong Chuli listened to Su Qingluan's words and felt a little embarrassed, Fu Mingkong and Yuan Junyao's thoughts about Su Qingluan were simply on the surface, if Su Qingluan opened his mouth, the two of them would definitely consider it, but Su Qingluan obviously did not mean to "sell her beauty", and for a while Gong Chuli had to change her plan again.

However, before coming to Dongjing, she had already prepared for the worst that Su Qingluan would not cooperate, and now she heard that she would say that one of the Northern Qi and Western Qin would move, which was already a very good situation. At least the possibility of two countries cooperating with Gong Xuelian can be excluded.

"Qingluan doesn't have to be embarrassed, as long as you say move one of them, and I'll solve the rest. Gong Chuli didn't squirm either, and asked, "I don't know which side Qingluan is more sure of?"

Su Qingluan's heart moved, and he instantly thought about it, "In this case, hand over Northern Qi to me!"

Gong Chuli was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I thought Qingluan would choose Xiqin!"

"Why do you say this?" Su Qingluan was a little puzzled, not understanding why Gong Chuli would say this.

Gong Chuli smiled and said, "Everyone can see that Fu Mingkong intends to marry you as the princess of Western Qin, if you..."

"Chu Li," Su Qingluan interrupted Gong Chu Li's words, "Now that we are friends, I can tell you frankly that I will not use tricks that ordinary women are good at, and besides, I hate Xi Qin very much." ”

Gong Chuli was a little surprised, looking at the shallow smile on Su Qingluan's face, but she knew that she was serious. But why did she abandon Fu Mingkong, who was young and handsome and was the crown prince, and chose Northern Qi, was it because of King Yuan? It seems that Yuan Junyao also has a heart for Su Qingluan, if it is a marriage between Dongjing and Northern Qi...

Gong Chuli quipped, "No, Qingluan, you have fallen in love with the Yuan King of Northern Qi, after all, the appearance and character of the Yuan King are all superior." With Qingluan, you can be regarded as a match. ”

This can be regarded as wanting to be straightforward, under the joking joke, the temptation is too obvious, Gong Chuli seems to feel that his words are lost, and he hurriedly smiled, "Forget it, no matter what he is the prince or the prince, there are many good men in the world, and you have to pick it slowly as Qingluan." ”

Su Qingluan smiled when he heard this, and said, "Chu Li doesn't know, King Yuan is a well-known wife, Chu Li is not afraid, but I am very afraid!" After speaking, he patted his chest, as if he was really frightened, but the ridicule on his face made people laugh.

Gong Chuli covered her mouth and chuckled, "If King Yuan hears this, he can't say how helpless he is!"

Su Qingluan drank some tea and said with a smile, "Chu Li cares so much about other people's lifelong affairs, isn't it that she is lonely in spring and wants to get married?"

Coldly asked by Su Qingluan, Gong Chuli's face turned red for no reason, and the appearance of a handsome man appeared in his mind, but he said with a smile in his mouth, "Qingluan, don't joke with me, before the big thing happens, how can Chu Li have the heart to start a family." ”

Su Qingluan raised his eyebrows and was silent, but he had a plan in his heart.

The two continued the topic just now, "Regardless of others, if Qingluan persuades Northern Qi not to marry and cooperate with Gong Xuelian, after the matter is completed, Chu Li will be grateful." ”

Su Qingluan shook his head, "There is no need to thank you again, I only hope that in the future, whether you or the fifth princess will be the empress of Nanchen, you can ensure that Dajing and Nanchen get along amicably, and the trade between the two countries can be unimpeded." ”

Gong Chuli was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Su Qingluan to say this, and then smiled, her eyes full of seriousness, "Naturally, this kind of thing is beneficial to the two countries, whether it is me or the fifth sister, we will approve and support." ”

After the two finished talking, they called the maid in to serve, and after a while, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras wafted.

The painting boat swam around the lake and returned to the original point, and Su Qingluan and Gong Chuli did not mention it separately.

Su Qingluan returned to the mansion, Daihe Dailian had already returned from Jiangbei, and at the same time brought back a distinguished guest, it was the main purpose of the two of them going to Jiangbei this time, that is, to invite Liu Yan, the deputy general of the Auxiliary Guogong, over.

The three of them arrived after lunch, and it happened that Su Qingluan was not in the house, when the two girls saw Su Qingluan coming back, they hurriedly greeted her and helped her get out of the carriage. As soon as the hands of the two touched Su Qingluan's arm, they couldn't help but redden, Su Qingluan knew that the two girls were distressed that she was injured, and her heart was moved.

These two maidens did not do the same work under her as other princesses or ladies of ladies and maids, and were sent about like guards all day long, but they were both happy and faithful. After more than ten years of companionship along the way, in her heart, the two of them are like half of her sister, they feel sorry for her injury, why don't she feel sorry for their hard work?
