Chapter 30, Bamboo Forest
For some reason, Su Qingluan put it away without looking at the wooden box handed over by Yuan Junyao, and there was a sense of weakness in his heart that he was afraid of being seen. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info can't understand the reason for this lack of heart, in the end, she has to attribute it to her being a princess, if someone finds out this scene will be wrong for her reputation.
Su Qingluan put away the wooden box, and the people not far away were already approaching, turning a cluster of lush moon seasons, the figure of the person who came jumped into the eyes of the two, wearing a luxurious and decent dark gold four-clawed dragon pattern brocade robe, wearing a golden crown, stepping on pine-colored treasure boots, and a black jade the size of a baby's fist fell on the same color belt inlaid with gems. Full of luxury, Fu Mingkong, who came by moonlight, came with a smile.
"Coincidentally, is Prince Fu also here to enjoy the scenery?" asked Yuan Junyao with a smile.
Fu Mingkong smiled meaningfully at Yuan Junyao, and said, "Of course not, this palace is specially here to find the eldest princess." ”
Su Qingluan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and came to look for her, what does this mean, "Oh? I don't know what Prince Fu has to do." ”
Yuan Junyao was also a little surprised to hear Fu Mingkong's answer like this, he thought he would be tactful!
Fu Mingkong looked at Yuan Junyao, and then turned his head to look at Su Qingluan, "It's not a big deal, I'll talk to the princess in private another day." In fact, where did he have something to find Su Qingluan, it was just an excuse to find the two of them alone and come over to disturb him.
But his tone of "there are outsiders, it's inconvenient to say more" really disliked Yuan Junyao, and he stepped forward at the moment and stood between the two, blocking Fu Mingkong's sight from looking at Su Qingluan.
"This king has some questions that I want to ask Prince Fu, I wonder if Prince Fu is convenient?" Yuan Junyao seemed to be determined not to let Fu Mingkong and Su Qingluan have too much intersection.
This Yuan Junyao is really hateful!
A trace of annoyance flashed in Fu Mingkong's eyes, but his face still looked gentle and elegant, "King Yuan has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, this palace must know everything." ”
Su Qingluan really didn't like this situation, and when he heard that the two of them seemed to have something to discuss, he said, "Since King Yuan and Prince Fu have something important to discuss, this palace will not delay the two of them here, and go first." After speaking, he didn't wait for the two to answer, and left in a hurry.
Looking at the back of Su Qingluan leaving until he was gone, the smile on the corner of Yuan Junyao's mouth became more and more proud, on the other hand, Fu Mingkong, the smile on his face was already invisible, and his tone was a little stiff, "Didn't King Yuan have something to say, can he say it now?"
King Yuan secretly observed Fu Mingkong's expression, and couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, this Prince of Western Qin is too young, no, he can easily express his inner emotions.
"What is the purpose of Prince Fu's Dongjing this time?" Yuan Junyao's tone was faint, as if he was asking, "Is the moonlight good tonight?"
Fu Mingkong was stunned for a moment, a little surprised by Yuan Junyao's directness, no one would say anything about this kind of thing, not to mention that the identity of the two of them is like this, "Yuan Wang Mo didn't drink a few more glasses of wine at the banquet, how could he say drunken words." ”
Yuan Junyao didn't care much about Fu Mingkong's answer and ridicule, and continued, "No matter what your purpose of coming to Dajing is, Su Qingluan, don't be delusional. ”
If Yuan Junyao's last sentence was a joke to Fu Mingkong, then now this sentence really annoyed him, he sneered and said, "There is a way: My Fair Lady, a gentleman is good." King Yuan, don't you think you're too lenient?"
Yuan Junyao also closed the already invisible smile at the corner of his mouth, "Prince Fu, the king only said that thing just now, some people, not everyone can think about it, and even if all the men in the world die, it won't be your turn!"
These words can really be said to be extremely polite, Fu Mingkong clenched his fists angrily to restrain himself from going up and beating up the unashamed King of Laoshizi Yuan in front of him, in what capacity did this person say this, could it be that he also had an interest in Su Qingluan?
"I don't know if King Yuan's words were instructed by Emperor Jing, or if King Yuan was also interested in the eldest princess, so he said so wildly," Fu Mingkong glanced at him, and then said, "If it is the former, this palace will show its heart to Emperor Jing in person, if it is the latter... King Yuan is inevitably too blind!"
Yuan Junyao showed an inexplicable smile, "It doesn't matter if there is no one in your eyes, or if you speak wildly, this king only knows that you and her will never be possible." With that, he strode away with his hands behind his back.
"Maybe it or not, King Yuan will wait and see!" Fu Mingkong stayed where he was and didn't move, half because he was angry by Yuan Junyao's words, and half because he was guessing what Yuan Junyao was interested in Su Qingluan, could it be that he was also for Xiaoyaowei?
Yes, with their status, it is impossible to marry a widow who is widowed without absolute benefits, after all, every position around them is to be used in the right place, or to encircle the minister, or to please the father, in short, it is used to consolidate the position, although Su Qingluan is still young and even noble, but it is an indisputable fact that he is already married and widowed, so Yuan Junyao must also be here for Xiaoyaowei.
Regarding Yuan Junyao's statement that Su Qingluan would definitely not want to marry him, Fu Mingkong felt that it should refer to the war between Western Qin and Dongjing. If Su Qingluan marries him, she will be the empress of Western Qin after he succeeds to the throne in the future, then Emperor Dongjing and she will definitely readily agree.
As for the biggest stumbling block in front of him, Yuan Junyao, Northern Qi is now the strongest among the four countries, followed by Dongjing, Western Qin and finally Southern Chen, and Yuan Junyao is the prince of Northern Qi who is most likely to be made the crown prince, so it is very likely that Dongjing will choose a stronger Northern Qi marriage.
Looking at Emperor Dongjing's attitude, he likes Su Qingluan very much, if Su Qingluan is willing to marry him, the emperor will not be reluctant. Now it is up to him to get Su Qingluan's heart one step ahead of Yuan Junyao.
Thinking of this, Fu Mingkong strode out of the bamboo forest with great ambition, after all, he was still very confident in his appearance!
When Fu Mingkong returned to the Izumo Palace, the banquet was almost over, and the banquet was dispersed after a while, Fu Mingkong's seat was adjacent to Yuan Junyao, although the two of them were a little unhappy in the bamboo forest just now, but the surface work still had to be done.
"King Yuan doesn't know which inn or inn to stay in, and he didn't see the carriages and horses of the Northern Qi when he came, do you want the palace to give you a ride?" When Fu Mingkong came, he found that there was no sign of the Northern Qi Dynasty where the carriage was parked, so he asked the deacon eunuch, and the deacon eunuch also said that he didn't see it, so he asked.
Yuan Junyao replied politely, "Prince Fu is polite, I'm afraid I will live up to Prince Fu's good intentions, and this king will stay in the palace, so I won't bother Prince Fu." It is undeniable that Yuan Junyao said this with a little bit of pride, as if he was deliberately angry with him, and sighed, "Alas~! This king came in too much hurry, and Emperor Jing couldn't bear to leave this king to rest in the palace. ”
Fu Mingkong heard the fire but couldn't send it, in the afternoon he had already received a secret guard to inquire, Yuan Junyao entered Dongjing half a month later than him, when they were recuperating in a town closest to the capital, Yuan Junyao was still thousands of miles away from the capital, so Yuan Junyao was in a non-stop hurry along the way, and he would arrive a day earlier than them.
Thinking of this, Fu Mingkong couldn't help but be a little curious, what made Yuan Junyao come to Dongjing alone at the expense of traveling thousands of miles, and what agreement did he secretly reach with Emperor Jing?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Fu Mingkong's heart became, and he wanted to tell Su Qingluan immediately that he was going to marry her, but reason told him that he couldn't do this. In the end, I had to laugh, "Yes, then the main palace will go first." ”
Looking at the back of Fu Mingkong leaving, Yuan Junyao sneered, he didn't know the purpose of Fu Mingkong's coming to Dajing this time, but his covetousness for Su Qingluan made him very annoyed.
Thinking about it, Fu Mingkong didn't know that Su Qingluan's horse who died in battle was the third emperor brother who disappeared and suddenly appeared two years ago, and now he hated it to death, so he wouldn't understand that no matter how hard he tried, Su Qingluan would not marry him.
With a cold snort, Yuan Junyao turned around and said goodbye to the prince.
……
Coming out of the bamboo forest, Su Qingluan came to the Queen Mother, in addition to the henchman Chunhui Mama in the Queen Mother's dormitory, there were two commonly used palace maids guarding the door of the dormitory.
It is rare that the Queen Mother has not rested, and is leaning on the soft couch, seemingly waiting for her.
"Imperial Grandmother. Su Qingluan walked quickly to the queen mother's bed, "It's so late, why hasn't the imperial grandmother rested?"
The Queen Mother was tired, her face was tired, she opened her eyes and saw that it was Su Qingluan who came, and smiled, "Luan'er is here, probably people are old, I think when the first emperor was alive, the mourning family accompanied the first emperor to review the chapter all night and did not feel tired, but now at this time, I feel sleepy and can't open my eyes, and people can't accept the old!"
Su Qingluan heard the queen mother's words with a hint of helplessness, and hurriedly comforted, "Imperial grandmother, where do you say, where are you old, the previous mother and queen also told Luan'er to ask you for a method of parenting and beauty for your grandmother, saying that the imperial grandmother is obviously two years older than her grandmother, how can she look like she is more than ten years younger than her grandmother, there must be some secret recipe for maintenance," After speaking, he hugged one of the queen mother's arms and shook it, "Imperial grandmother, do you really have any secret recipes, give it to Luan'er, and Luan'er will also maintain it." ”
The Queen Mother was really amused by Su Qingluan, "You girl, where did the mourning family get any secret recipe, you will make fun of the mourning family!"
Seeing that the queen mother smiled, Su Qingluan also laughed, and said, "Where does Luan'er dare to make fun of the imperial grandmother, if you don't believe it, ask the queen mother tomorrow, see if Luan'er has a lie?"
"Ghost girl!" The Queen Mother tapped Su Qingluan's forehead, among all the juniors, only Su Qingluan could make herself so happy.
"Imperial Grandmother, is there something wrong with you specially ordering Luan'er to come?" Su Qingluan was a little puzzled.
When the Queen Mother heard this, the smile on her face disappeared, and she said with a worried face, "Luan'er, last night, your father vomited blood again, and the imperial doctor couldn't completely cure it, alas~!"
Su Qingluan was like a thunderbolt, and he panicked for a while, and asked repeatedly, "What's the matter?" Why didn't my father and mother send someone to inform me, and my father didn't look different today!"
The Queen Mother patted her hand and comforted, "Don't worry, it seems that there is no big problem now, but Yang Yuanzheng of the Tai Hospital said that if you can find half-grown grass within half a year, your father will be fine within ten years, otherwise." It's hard to hold on for three years!"
Su Qingluan didn't know what it was like in his heart at the moment, his father was not yet forty years old this year, and he was in the prime of life...
Half-born grass? Su Qingluan suddenly remembered what the imperial doctor said, "Imperial grandmother, did Yang Yuanzheng say what half-grown grass looks like and where it usually grows?"
The Queen Mother saw what Su Qingluan meant at a glance, she should have wanted to find this half-born grass in person, "Don't worry, yesterday the Mourning family has sent Xiaoyaowei to find it, it is said that it is on the Jade Spear Mountain located in Northern Qi, the size of an adult man's thumb, purple-red stems and leaves, the leaves range from one to one in odd, the more the number, the bigger the year, and the best effect, but this half-born grass is extremely rare, and even the Northern Qi Palace only has a few dozen or so plants, so there is little hope!"
Su Qingluan was silent, even the Northern Qi royal family only had more than ten western, how rare it was, if he opened his mouth to exchange it for the purchase of Northern Qi, then Northern Qi would definitely guess that there were important people who needed this medicine!
Important people?
