The time of three days is not long, but it is not short, the soldiers at the border pass are still waiting for reinforcements, so Jiang Lu is in a hurry, and he left the capital before dawn that day, and went to the border pass.

When leaving, Sun Zhiyan dressed up and followed the emperor to send the army to a distance of eighteen miles, all the way to the outside of the long pavilion.

"It's the first time I've seen you put on a full suit of armor." Sun Zhiyan took out a peace charm from her sleeve and stuffed it from the edge of the armor to Jiang Lu's back facing her heart, "If you want to keep it close to you all the time, put it here." As he spoke, he used some force to press the position of the peace charm.

Jiang Lu held Sun Zhiyan's hand and responded warmly: "Okay." ”

Sun Zhiyan pursed her lips, stared at Jiang Lu without blinking, and emphasized: "You must come back safely." ”

"Definitely." Jiang Luzhen nodded, and gently swept Sun Zhiyan's sideburns with his hand

"I'll come back and tie your hair for you."

The emperor read that the two of them were newly married, and specially allowed time for them to say goodbye, but the sky was about to dawn, even if there was more reluctance, it was time to separate, Jiang Lu turned around, covered up all the nostalgia, and left only one sentence: "I'm leaving." ”

Sun Zhiyan stood in place in a daze, looking at Jiang Lu's extraordinarily powerful figure after putting on the armor, her nose suddenly became sore, and she was about to cry in the blink of an eye.

It's ridiculous to think about it, obviously she was still having a temper with him a few days ago, but last night, she didn't let go of all her hypocrisy, and kept saying that she would never be reluctant to him. Today is good, but before the man got on the horse, she wanted to pull him back.

Sun Zhiyan, who felt that she was too unproductive, hurriedly turned around and pretended that she had nothing to do.

In the past, when she watched Journey to the West, her favorite was what Fairy Zixia said: "My sweetheart is a hero of the world, and one day he will wear a golden holy robe and ride a colorful auspicious cloud to marry me." ”

Even when she traveled to ancient times, the best dream of love in her heart never changed. But one day when her husband put on the armor, she sincerely hoped that her husband was just an ordinary man, not to become a hero of the world, nor to have colorful auspicious clouds, as long as he lived with her peacefully for the rest of his life.

"Princess, the horse master is on the horse." At this time, Aunt Lan, who reminded her of the fact that Jiang Lu was going to go on an expedition, was simply hateful, Sun Zhiyan glanced at Aunt Lan with disgust, but after all, she couldn't hold back, turned around and looked at Jiang Lu raised her hand to signal the whole army to leave, watched him say goodbye to his father, and looked at ...... He glanced back at her, his eyes full of love.

"Let's go back." When the first light appeared in the far east, the figures of Jiang Lu and the army disappeared from Sun Zhiyan's sight early, she withdrew her futile gaze, and was surrounded by the mighty palace people and returned to the carriage.

Jiang Lu has been raised by the eldest princess since she was a child, and now Jiang Lu has gone to the most ruthless battlefield, presumably she is also very sad in her heart, Sun Zhiyan understands the temperament of the eldest princess, in order to make this weak eldest princess feel relieved, she went to the eldest princess's residence to accompany her as soon as she returned to the princess's mansion.

The eldest princess believed in Buddhism when she was young, and many things would be pinned on the Buddha, because Jiang Lu went on the expedition, she lived in a small Buddha hall two days ago, and prayed for the Buddha's blessing every day. When Sun Zhiyan arrived, the eldest princess was chanting, and she didn't want to disturb the eldest princess, so she bowed silently, and then knelt aside and recited along.

Sun Zhiyan grew up with the Queen Mother, not to mention anything else, reciting Buddhist scriptures is definitely a first-class level.

Originally, the eldest princess had a slightly strange tone when she was reading alone, but after Sun Zhiyan joined, the smell of the monks in the temple chanting the scriptures came out in an instant.

After reciting a scroll of scriptures, the eldest princess opened her eyes and looked at Sun Zhiyan with pity, and the words were full of sympathy: "I understand you in my heart, you and Ah Lu have become husband and wife, and the worries in my heart are only less than mine, and in the future, you will come and pray for Ah Lu with me, and it will also save you the journey to Longshan Temple." ”

The eldest princess misunderstood that Sun Zhiyan came to the small Buddha Hall because she wanted to pray for Jiang Lu, but she didn't know that Sun Zhiyan's main purpose of coming here was to do her filial piety for Jiang Lu. Sun Zhiyan didn't argue, and spoke according to the eldest princess's thoughts: "When I came, I heard that my grandmother lived in the small Buddha hall two days ago to pray for blessings, and if I had inquired earlier, I wouldn't have delayed coming now." ”

Sun Zhiyan's words made the eldest princess even more satisfied, and there was finally a smile on her always sad face: "Pray for blessings sooner or later, as long as you have that sincerity, the Buddha will definitely be able to hear it." ”

"It's still my grandmother who is transparent, and it's me who is in love." Sun Zhiyan bent her eyebrows, looking suddenly realized. "The Buddha is merciful, the horse will definitely return safely, my aunt can't just enlighten me, I have to relax myself."

"You have a heart, and don't worry, I don't know how many winds and waves I have experienced, but I won't worry about myself because young people go out to wander. Pray for blessings, you come every hour, read a volume of scriptures to pray for blessings, and then copy a scripture, and the same is true today, after copying the scriptures, you will go back to the princess's mansion. "The eldest princess believes in Buddhism herself, but she also knows that it is not a good reputation for a young woman to believe in Buddhism. Even though she agreed in her heart that Sun Zhiyan prayed for her husband, she couldn't change this fact, so she set a time to prevent Sun Zhiyan from staying in the Buddhist hall all day long and causing gossip.

"Follow your grandmother's teachings." Sun Zhiyan accepted the arrangement of the eldest princess in a kind manner, and left the Buddhist hall after copying a volume of Buddhist scriptures with the eldest princess.

"Princess, you can figure it out, Prince Shun has been waiting in the princess's mansion for a long time!" It was a little girl ring in the Mansion of Qi Guo who spoke, because it had just been bought back for less than two years, and there were still some deficiencies in the rules, plus her temperament was jumpy, and she just passed on a word, so she nervously rushed to Sun Zhiyan's feet.

"Why are you here to pass the word?" Aunt Lan looked down at the little girl, and although her voice was gentle, she still frightened the little girl. In the end, it came out of the palace, and it had a serious smell on it.

"Back to my aunt, the slave maid is by the Duchess of Qi, and the lady is now accompanying the princess of Shun, and Sister Jingqin asked me to come here to see the situation." It turned out to be a little girl who had just received an errand, and she didn't understand the meaning of the big girl, and they asked her to see how long the princess would have to finish praying, and she mistakenly thought that she was asking her to pass the word.

He Yuran actually didn't have anything special to look for Sun Zhiyan, but when he saw Jiang Lu on the expedition, he was worried that Sun Zhiyan would be sad before he came over to accompany his sister-in-law.

"But I made my sister-in-law worried." Sun Zhiyan asked He Yuran clearly what he meant, and a strong feeling of guilt involuntarily rose in her heart. It's just a temporary farewell to her husband during the newlywed period, and it even alarmed He Yuran, who was pregnant with Liujia.

"Since it's nothing serious, I won't disturb the princess and princess to catch up and say goodbye." The Duchess of Qi Guo originally had her own itinerary, and when she heard that Princess Shun was waiting for Princess Ning'an in the princess's mansion, she put down her itinerary to talk to Princess Shun. Now that Princess Ning'an has returned from the eldest princess, and there is nothing major to do, she naturally wants to continue her journey.

"Because of me, I delayed my sister-in-law's trip, I'm really sorry." Sun Zhiyan knew that the Duchess of Qi Guo was going back to her parents' house today to watch her nephew's Zhou ceremony, but she didn't expect that there would be such a show, which dragged the pace of the Duchess of Qi Guo.

"Where are there so many concubines, don't you feel sorry for me, princess, don't you treat me as an outsider when she says this?" The Duchess of Qi Guo feigned anger, and then said with a smile: "We will get along for a long time in the future, so don't be so polite anymore." ”

"Since my sister-in-law has said so, I should be respectful rather than obey." Sun Zhiyan saw that the Duchess of Qi really didn't mind, so she was no longer obsessed with apologizing, she summoned Aunt Lan and handed over a superb wolf to the Duchess of Qi: "This is a gift for the little nephew, sister-in-law must bring it." ”

"That's how it should be." A flash of light flashed in the eyes of the Duchess of Qi, the little Zhou can get the princess's gift, but it is really a big face, with this wolf, the mother's family will also look up to her by two points in the future, so how can people not be surprised.

It was another time for you to come and go, and it took a while to really send off the Duchess of Qi, seeing that only she and Sun Zhiyan were left in the huge princess's mansion, He Yuran pulled Sun Zhiyan to talk about another meaning today: "Recently, the prince has been frequently moving in the suburbs, and the prince guesses that he is going to ......" He Yuran compared a movement to wipe his neck instead of what he wanted to say, and then continued: "The prince asked me to entrust my sister, before I was sure, just in case, my sister should not go out easily, The prince of the province did something irrational. ”

The prince may want to force the palace?

In the face of this thunderstorm with a huge amount of information, Sun Zhiyan couldn't help but be full of surprise...... As far as she knows, in the history books that exist in modern times, there was a prince in the Qing Dynasty, he forced the palace, and then he failed.

But now is not the era of Kowloon to seize the throne, and the crown prince is not the Yinren of the Qing Dynasty whose hair was gray and could not wait for the throne. Under normal circumstances, the crown prince would only be the most orthodox heir to the throne.

The crown prince is wary of dealing with other princes, she can understand that it is a good thing to take precautions, and the lives of the brothers are still there.

The prince didn't like Sun Mingze, who was crowned the king, and Sun Zhiyan could also understand who let his brother hold the military power, but he didn't clearly stand in line.

But if you want to force the palace, she really can't understand it.

As mentioned earlier, in a sense, Sun Zhiyan is extremely well protected, she understands the evil and selfishness in the harem clearly, and the palace fighting methods are even more convenient, but for the previous dynasty, where can Sun Zhiyan, who has never been in direct contact with politics, really understand the turbulent undercurrent.

So......

"What is the prince going to do?" Sun Zhiyan was surprised for a long time before she found her voice again, and she opened her mouth and asked dryly.

Isn't it as simple as the crown prince ascending the throne, his brother returning military power to show his loyalty, and then everyone living happily together?

Why does she always feel that there is something she has overlooked?

"Who knows? These things are left to those who are good at this, and we can do what we can. "He Yuran is not as entangled as Sun Zhiyan, twisted a seasonal fresh fruit and ate it slowly and methodically" This matter is just the prince's speculation, and my sister doesn't have to care too much. There is no need to rush to say it in the Qi State Mansion, and it is not too late to talk about it when things are clear. ”

Sun Zhiyan nodded in agreement. Xindao is not that kind of material, and Sun Mingze and Jiang Lu are going to take care of political matters, so she can provide some help in a timely manner.

It's just a pity that the Yan Dynasty character strategy can only see what has happened.

"Why don't you go to the palace with me for a while? I'm about to give birth, so I'm going to accompany me. He Yuran thought about it, but he still didn't worry about Sun Zhiyan staying in the princess's mansion alone, so he couldn't help but suggest that Sun Zhiyan live in the palace.

Sun Zhiyan thought for a while, and finally refused: "I'm afraid I have to live up to my sister-in-law's kindness, I have promised that the eldest princess will go to her every day to pray together, and now it is not easy to go back on my word, I want to come over there to make some moves, as long as I don't go out, they can't help me." ”

It's really not that they are exaggerating like enemies, but that the crown prince had kidnapped and threatened his sibling sister when he dealt with the prince in the past, and he really didn't care that the princess was also his half-sister. 166 Reading Network
