Chapter 192: Arrogance
"Thank you, princess, but I'm going back now." After saying that, Lei Luo turned around to leave, Guo Xiang chased after him, and said unhappily, "Lei Luo, why have you been avoiding me?" After returning from Wei, every time I looked for you, you said that something was wrong. Lei Luo frowned and said, "There is indeed something wrong here, not deliberately avoiding the princess." β
Guo Xiang pouted and argued, "I don't believe it. She grabbed Lei Luo's arm and put it on herself, "I have already asked my father to give us a marriage, and my father said that he would hold a wedding for us when he is better." β
Lei Luo withdrew his arm, "Princess, why bother, I already have a wife and children below, so I wronged the princess." How many sons of the ministers of the court and the central government are left to the princess to choose, why does it have to be under it. β
Guo Xiang grabbed Lei Luo's arm again, "I don't mind being a concubine, I accept anything for you, I just like you, those sons are weak and incompetent, they only know how to look for flowers and ask willows, what I like is a big hero like you who really fights on the battlefield." β
Lei Luo locked his eyebrows and withdrew his arm again, "I will nominate this matter with the emperor in the future, and the emperor must not want his princess to marry someone else as a concubine, so the marriage will definitely not work, the princess will also ask three times, don't do such a foolish thing again." After speaking, he didn't wait for Guo Xiang to say anything, turned around and strode away.
Guo Xiang gritted his teeth, stood in place and stomped his feet, "Lei Luo, in this life, this princess will not marry you." β
Guo Ping returned to the study and saw Xiao Wanyao standing in front of the desk slowly flipping through a book, Zhu'er was just about to call her, Guo Ping made a small gesture, Zhu'er didn't make a sound, he walked over slowly, saw Xiao Wanyao flipping through a book of war, and said with a smile, "The princess also likes to read the art of war?" β
Xiao Wanyao paused slightly, looked up and saw that Guo Ping was already standing beside her, and said with a smile, "When did you come back, I didn't hear your voice." Guo Ping said, "I met Xiang'er halfway, so I came back, and you are also interested in the art of war?" Xiao Wanyao smiled faintly, "I've seen some, but it's not much, but I'm not interested, I still prefer medical books, did you let Xiang'er send General Lei?" β
Guo Ping nodded, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, Xiang'er has a lot of affection for General Lei, but General Lei already has a wife and children, Xiang'er wants his father to give him a marriage, and his father doesn't want his daughter to marry as a concubine, so he has been delaying." Xiao Wanyao nodded, "So that's the case, I think Xiang'er and General Lei are quite compatible, so what does General Lei mean?" β
Guo Ping sat down on the chair in front of the table and sighed slightly, "General Lei doesn't seem to be willing, he is not the kind of person who likes wind and snow, and he only has one wife and a son under him, who is three years old this year. Both parents are by his side, and he is a person who values love and righteousness. β
Xiao Wanyao nodded, I didn't expect that burly tough guy to have such a side, Guo Ping supported his chin with his hands, looked at her, saw her thoughtful look, and then said, "General Lei still has some consideration for you, he was almost beheaded by his father because of your frame, if you weren't the crown princess, I'm afraid he wouldn't let you go." β
Xiao Wanyao was stunned for a moment, looked at Guo Ping, and pretended not to know, "Really?" Did I have such a big holiday with General Lei in the first place? Knowing that she was deliberately pretending to be stupid, Guo Ping didn't mind, got up and walked to her, slowly took her into his arms, and pressed his chin on her shoulder, "Should I trust you?" β
Xiao Wanyao paused, her eyes staring ahead, "The concubine doesn't understand what the prince meant." Guo Ping continued, "Will you deal with me like you did with Lei Luo?" I know that you are a master of using poison, and General Lei is worried about you, and because of this, I just want you to tell me in person, should I trust you? β
Xiao Wanyao lowered her head slightly, she could feel that he was holding her arms tightly, hugging herself tighter, to be honest, she didn't know how to answer this question, "Should the concubine trust the prince?" She smiled faintly and asked rhetorically. Guo Ping was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Why do you say that?" Is there anything I don't trust you? β
Xiao Wanyao walked out of his arms and turned to face him, "Is there anything about that concubine who is not worthy of His Royal Highness the Prince's trust?" The two of them looked at each other, Guo Ping's gaze narrowed slightly, staring at the person in front of him, two different people, two same questions, no one knew how to answer.
Xiao Wanyao suddenly laughed, "Since even the prince doesn't know how to answer this question, the concubine is even more ignorant." However, the concubine thinks that trust is rare and precious, and it is also a very dangerous weakness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was born in the imperial family, and your imperial master should have taught you since childhood, and you can't trust others lightly. Therefore, the concubine thinks that it is better to be careful. β
Saying that, Xiao Wanyao picked up the medicine bowl on the side and handed it to Guo Ping, "His Royal Highness the Prince, let's drink the medicine first!" At least this point can be trusted by the prince, and the concubine guarantees that the medicine will be cured. Speaking of medicine, Guo Ping suddenly frowned, with an expression of wanting to run away, and before Xiao Wanyao could react, Guo Ping had already taken a few steps back, turned around and strode out.
If it was the kind of medicine in the past, Guo Ping could barely drink it, but this time Xiao Wanyao's medicine, he couldn't drink it anyway, he thought it was not something that people should drink at all.
The prescription had already been examined by the imperial doctor as early as Guo Ping's first injury, so it was fine, he didn't suspect the prescription, but suspected that Xiao Wanyao deliberately gave some unpalatable medicine to make him so uncomfortable.
Guo Ping fled, Xiao Wanyao didn't mean to chase at all, pouted and put the medicine bowl in front of the desk, and when he looked up again, Guo Ping was trying to open the door.
Zhu'er had already locked the door outside, and the person had slipped away early in the morning, and when Guo Ping found out about this, he turned his head helplessly to look at Xiao Wanyao, "The crown princess really has a means!" Xiao Wanyao didn't mind, picked up the medicine bowl again and walked to Guo Ping, and said with a smile, "The concubine is also a last resort." β
Guo Ping frowned tightly, and reluctantly took the medicine bowl in her hand, "Do you know the consequences of blackmailing the prince?" Xiao Wanyao smiled, "As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince drinks this medicine, the concubine is willing to be punished." β
Guo Ping was speechless, and hesitated for a long time before drinking the bowl of medicine, especially the expression on his face when he finished drinking, which made Xiao Wanyao laugh again.
Guo Ping squinted his eyes and waited for her with an angry face, "The crown princess has worked hard every day in order to let me drink medicine, it's really hard." Xiao Wanyao watched him slowly approach her, and naturally knew what was going on in his mind.
She stepped back step by step, "The concubine doesn't feel hard, but when she sees the prince drinking medicine every day, the concubine will always be in a good mood, because if you drink more medicine, His Royal Highness the prince's body will be better." β
Guo Ping snorted coldly, and took her into his arms with a wicked smile, "I think the crown princess likes to watch the jokes of the prince!" That's why you're in a good mood, and Prince Ben wants to punish you, and that's the consequence of you angering Prince Ben. As he spoke, he pressed down towards Xiao Wanyao. At this moment, Zhu'er knocked on the benefits and replied outside, "The princess and the slave maid have come to the imperial doctor, and they have asked the princess to go back to the room." With that, he opened the door.
Guo Ping let go of Xiao Wanyao and looked at her worriedly with a frown, "What's wrong?" What is wrong with you? Xiao Wanyao nodded, "The concubine has always felt a little tightness in her chest, and she always feels nauseous, she doesn't want to eat much, and the concubine herself has taken her pulse, but ......" Seeing Xiao Wanyao lower her head, Guo Ping asked, "What's wrong?" Sue sΓΉ where am I uncomfortable? β
Xiao Wanyao smiled shyly, "The concubine is not sure, so I asked Zhu'er to find a doctor to come and take a look." Guo Ping was slightly stunned, and at this moment Zhu'er had walked in from outside, "The prince, the princess, the imperial doctor is already waiting." β
Guo Ping hurriedly pulled Xiao Wanyao away, "Let's go, hurry up and take a look." Don't be sick. Then he pulled Xiao Wanyao to the outer hall of the bedroom, and as soon as he entered, the prince got up and saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Prince, see the Crown Princess." β
Guo Ping pulled Xiao Wanyao in, and personally helped her sit down, "Hurry up and check the pulse for the crown princess, what's going on." The imperial physician asked Xiao Wanyao to stretch out her arm to take her pulse, and after a while, the imperial physician got up and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Your Highness, the crown princess is happy, and the time is about a month." β
Guo Ping was stunned for a moment, the whole person froze, and then looked at Xiao Wanyao excitedly, "You are happy, I am going to be a father." Xiao Wanyao nodded faintly, with a faint smile on her face, "Did you also notice it when you took your pulse before?" Xiao Wanyao nodded, "The concubine also felt it, but she was a little worried that the concubine was mistaken." β
Guo Ping smiled happily, "With your medical skills, how can you even be wrong about this, you are just like me now, you can't even believe that you are pregnant." Xiao Wanyao nodded slightly, "Prince, the imperial doctor is still here." More on that later. β
Imperial Physician Li on the side said with a smile, "The minister will tell the emperor and queen about this matter." β
Guo Ping smiled, "Imperial Physician Li will go and get it first, I will personally tell my father and queen mother about this matter." "The minister retired."
In order to complete the show, Zhu'er also stepped forward excitedly and saluted, "Congratulations to the crown princess." Guo Ping held Xiao Wanyao's hand tightly, smiling like a child, Xiao Wanyao smiled shyly, but the moment she lowered her head slightly, she couldn't help but have a trace of grievance in her eyes, and the complicated feeling at this moment may only be able to be experienced by herself.
Soon the whole palace knew the news, and the emperor was naturally very happy, although the previous princes gave birth to several grandchildren for him, but this was the crown prince's child, and he would naturally be happy.
Concubine An-An Lanyu was naturally happy after she found out, but she was not as excited as others, she specially found someone to calculate the date, and personally asked Imperial Doctor Li who took Xiao Wanyao's pulse, and the day happened to be the days when Xiao Wanyao and Guo Ping got married.
Therefore, An Lanyu's prejudice against Xiao Wanyao was also reduced by a few points, and she also ordered someone to reward some things over. In an instant, Xiao Wanyao became the focus of everyone, and the things rewarded in the palace were almost impossible to place in the room.
Naturally, this news is a good thing for some people, but for others, it is a disaster for the world, especially people like Huo Yongdie who have been married to the prince's mansion for a few years, but there is no movement, except for the prominent power of their mother's family.
She couldn't get Guo Ping's favor, and her stomach was not angry, so after hearing about Xiao Wanyao's pregnancy, she hated it to the core. I also learned that the emperor and queen had rewarded her with so many good things, and I can't wait to let Xiao Wanyao crush her bones and scatter ashes.
Chapter 192: Arrogance
Xiao Wanyao acts very low-key, in front of outsiders, she is naturally a gentle and virtuous princess, she speaks and acts very decently, although she is very unhappy to see herself like that, but when necessary, she still needs to make a scene.
This is also what makes Guo Ping uncertain, he can't see clearly what kind of person Xiao Wanyao is, sometimes far, sometimes near, sometimes cold, sometimes hot, the most unpredictable is her heart, but Guo Ping is also happy. If it was just a simple woman, he might not be so interested.
After learning that Xiao Wanyao was pregnant, Guo Ping stayed with her almost all day, Han Qianqian was nothing, her behavior and behavior were different from ordinary people, but Huo Yongdie was about to explode her lungs.
On this day, Huo Yongdie's residence Xiao Hexuan, made waves again, she couldn't hold Xiao Wanyao, so she took her own subordinates to vent her anger, her personal maid Bi'er was brought from her mother's family, she knew Huo Yongdie's temperament since she was a child, it was best not to mess with her at this time, otherwise she would have to lose her skin if she didn't die, but there was a little girl who didn't know how to get into trouble with something that shouldn't be messed with.
Huo Yongdie was unhappy, and casually found a reason to get angry at a little girl for a while, her subordinates pointed to the girl in front of her, but it was another woman who was scolding in her mouth, Bi'er stood aside obediently and didn't dare to say anything.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid kneeling on the ground accidentally knocked over Huo Yongdie's teacup, and she was frightened and cried on the ground after a few angry shouts, "You still dare to cry?" Did I teach you the wrong lesson? Yes? It's okay for others to ride on my head and spread wild, even you don't take me seriously as a girl, do you? β
The little girl below was scared silly, crying vigorously, she couldn't even say half a word, Huo Yongdie stood up and walked towards her, Bi'er's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a wicked smile, there was a good show.
Sure enough, after Huo Yongdie passed, she slapped her face fiercely, "I told you to cry, I told you to cry!" I'm not dead yet. She was tired and her hands hurt, so she gasped and returned to her seat, and Bi'er helped her sit down, "Bi'er, continue to teach me a lesson about this girl, something that doesn't have a long heart." β
Bi'er was naturally happy, chuckled lightly in her heart, rolled up her sleeves and hit the little girl, every time Huo Yongdie taught her subordinates, Bi'er was most willing to do such a thing, and let them know that she was not of the same level as them.
The little girl was beaten and wailed, and it happened that Xiao Wanyao was passing by outside, and she couldn't help frowning when she heard this kind of wail that was not like a human voice, "Who is shouting?" β
Zhu'er helped Xiao Wanyao, "This is Xiao Hexuan, probably the side concubine is teaching people a lesson again." When the slave and maid passed by here, they often heard this voice, and they were afraid that some unlucky subordinate would upset her again. β
Xiao Wanyao frowned slightly, and slowly walked forward, "I'm afraid that the person who provoked her is not the next person." As they spoke, they saw Han Qianqian coming out of her residence, the Orchid House, followed by her personal maid Ping'er.
Xiao Wanyao was slightly stunned at first, and then walked up with a smile, "Sister, where are you going?" Han Qianqian was stunned, lowered his eyebrows, restrained the anger on his face, and blessed Xiao Wanyao, "See the crown princess, I'm about to go out, I don't know where the crown princess is going?" β
Xiao Wanyao smiled, "I've been here for a long time, and I haven't been to the Orchid Residence, so I want to go to your place to have a look, if you have something, I'll come back another day." β
Han Qianqian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The concubine has nothing important, but she is just going out for a walk, the princess is invited." Xiao Wanyao nodded and was about to go to the Orchid House with Han Qianqian when she heard a wail from Xiao Hexuan. Xiao Wanyao couldn't help frowning, but Han Qianqian's face was calm.
Xiao Wanyao glanced at Han Qianqian, "This palace thinks of something, I probably don't have time to go to the Orchid House today, come back another day." Han Qianqian was slightly stunned, and when she turned around, she had already seen Xiao Wanyao leave with Zhu'er, "Sister sends off the crown princess." Xiao Wanyao took a deep breath, squinted her eyes and said, "I thought that the weather was very good today, and I came out for a walk, but I didn't want to encounter such a thing." Zhu'er, let's go to Xiaohexuan to have a look. After saying that, he walked towards that side with Zhu'er.
When passing Xiao Hexuan, a servant girl hurriedly broke out and hit Xiao Wanyao, Zhu'er was furious, "Why don't you have long eyes when you walk, the princess is pregnant, if you have anything to do, you can afford it?" "Zhu'er is really anxious, Xiao Wanyao doesn't know martial arts, her body is delicate, and she naturally can't eat these.
Seeing that it was Xiao Wanyao, the maidservant hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The slave didn't mean it, the princess spared her life, the princess spared her life." Xiao Wanyao looked at her in a hurry, and glanced at Xiao Hexuan, "In such a hurry, where are you going to go?" β
The maid knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, "Back to the crown princess, the shadow was knocked unconscious, and the slave maid is going to ask for the imperial doctor." That's why I accidentally bumped into the princess, and the princess spared her life. Xiao Wanyao frowned, at this time, there was no such wailing sound in Xiaohe Xuan, she frowned and turned around and walked inside, "Zhu'er asked her to go to the Minghe Hall and bring the silver needle package of the main palace, go quickly." After speaking, he has entered Xiaohe Xuan.
Zhu'er instructed the maid to go to the Minghe Hall to find Cui'er, and then hurriedly followed Xiao Wanyao into Xiaohexuan. There are a lot of maidservants who serve Xiao Wanyao, but she usually doesn't like to bring too many people around, so as long as she doesn't go out on purpose, she usually only takes Zhu'er out for a walk.
Huo Yongdie looked at the maid who had fainted on the ground, snorted coldly in her mouth, and was about to take a sip of tea to rest, when she heard someone outside reply, "The princess has arrived." Huo Yongdie was slightly stunned, and before she could drink tea, her brows furrowed, with a look of disgust, "What is she doing here at this time?" Bi'er, who was still on the side, reacted quickly and ordered the others to quickly carry the shadow down.
Although Huo Yongdie didn't like her, after all, she was the crown princess, even if she was a concubine in the palace, she had to respect her a little, she didn't want to bear the charge of not knowing the rules, so she got up and prepared to greet her.
Xiao Wanyao stepped into the room and saw that they were about to carry the shadow away, and snorted coldly, "Who is she?" Why did Hongu carry her away as soon as she came? As he spoke, he walked into the door, "See the Crown Princess." The maids in the room didn't dare to move anymore, Bi'er gave the others a look and asked them to continue to carry the shadow away, but when it was time to do it, Xiao Wanyao spoke, "Carry her to the soft couch, this palace wants to know what happened." β
At this time, Huo Yongdie had already gotten up and stood to the side, while Xiao Wanyao was sitting on the front seat, looking at them coldly. Seeing that the maids didn't move, Zhu'er spoke, "Didn't you hear the words of the crown princess?" The other maidservants didn't dare to move anymore, Huo Yongdie then spoke, "The crown princess has said it, why are you stupid if you don't hurry up and do it?" After roaring, he turned his head to look at Xiao Wanyao, and immediately put a smile on his face, "It's all because my sister is not strict in discipline, and these subordinates are more stupid than the other, and they still hope that the princess will forgive her sins." β
Xiao Wanyao glanced at her coldly, got up and walked towards the unconscious maidservant, at this moment the maidservant who went to the Minghe Hall to get the silver needle had already run back, Zhu'er took the silver needle in her hand and then walked to Xiao Wanyao's side.
There were seven or eight people standing in the room, and no one dared to vent their anger, everyone knew that this crown princess from Wei was low-key and modest, and she had never had any problems since she came here. Just don't know what to do here this time.
Xiao Wanyao examined Ying'er's wounds, they were all skin injuries, and the injuries were not very serious, but if they were ignored, they could die. She pricked Shadow with a silver needle a few times, and in addition to the skin trauma, I am afraid that Shadow was also surprised, and she passed out for a while. After doing this, Xiao Wanyao asked them to take the shadow down, "Find the imperial doctor to show her well." β
After doing this, Xiao Wanyao re-seated and stared at Huo Yongdie, "What crime did she commit, why did she attack so ruthlessly?" Huo Yongdie took a deep breath, she was just angry that Xiao Wanyao was so favored, but she was angry that she was now pregnant with Guo Ping's child.
Seeing that Huo Yongdie didn't speak, she was still angry, and Bi'er on the side hurriedly stepped forward and counted a lot of shadows. Xiao Wanyao didn't bother to listen to her lies, she just stared at Huo Yongdie, "Even if the subordinate makes a mistake, just punish her, it's a big deal to drive her away, why be so ruthless." β
The side concubine is blessed, "Follow the teachings of the crown princess." β
Xiao Wanyao sighed slightly, got up and left with Zhu'er, and Huo Yongdie cursed again behind her, but she couldn't hear it.
On the way back, Zhu'er locked her eyebrows, "That little maid is only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can she make so many mistakes?" Xiao Wanyao sneered, "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" She couldn't help but think of the false accusations she had suffered in the Wei Palace in her previous life. Xiao Wanyao didn't want to meddle in this matter, but she was indeed soft-hearted at that time.
Here, Han Qianqian saw Xiao Wanyao walk into Xiaohexuan, stood at the door of the orchid house, smiled lightly, and turned back. Ping'er, the personal maidservant, asked suspiciously, "Why did the princess come to Orchid Residence?" Could it be that there is something to do with the master? Han Qianqian said with a smile, "It may just be a whim to come and walk, but it happened that she bumped into Huo Yongdie to teach her a lesson, but it's okay, it's not bad to let her suppress Huo Yongdie's arrogance." β
Ping'er said with a smile, "That's right, Orchid Ju and Xiaohexuan are the closest, listening to the side concubine teaching people there all day long, and when she hears it, she will be angry, and this time it can also make her stop for a few days." β
On this day, Xiao Wanyao was sitting in the Minghe Hall drinking tea, and saw Cui'er hurriedly walking in from outside, "The crown princess is not good." Xiao Wanyao paused slightly, "What's wrong?" "I just heard that Xiaohexuan's little maidservant Shadow committed suicide by throwing herself into a well."
Xiao Wanyao stood up suddenly, "How can this be?" Didn't she say she was fine a few days ago, why did she suddenly commit suicide? I didn't have time to ask too much, Xiao Wanyao took people to Xiaohexuan, and as soon as she entered the door, she heard a burst of laughter from inside the house, and then the laughter stopped abruptly, it must be the people inside who knew that they were coming.
Then Huo Yongdie came out with someone, "See the crown princess, I don't know why the princess came here today?" Xiao Wanyao looked at her and seemed to have an innocent look, and smiled faintly, "This palace heard that you have a servant girl here who committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, do you know?" β
Huo Yongdie looked unaware, turned around and asked the people around her, "Do you know who committed suicide here?" Bi'er also shook her head blankly, "Back to the side concubine, the slave maid doesn't know, there has never been any news that someone committed suicide." Huo Yongdie turned her head and looked at Xiao Wanyao with a smile, "It's not that the crown princess misunderstood, no one committed suicide here in the concubine." β
193 rivals
Xiao Wanyao's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at her, Huo Yongdie was naturally not to be outdone, "There is no wind and no waves, there will always be a reason, someone will call the shadow." Hongu is here to find out for himself. After speaking, he took Zhu'er and his group into Xiaohexuan.
Huo Yongdie took a deep breath, her face sank, but she couldn't stop her and followed her in. The person sent out soon returned, "Crown Princess Qiyu, the slave maid has asked, Ying'er has left the East Palace since the last incident and said that she was going back to her hometown, and she is not here." Xiao Wanyao glanced at Huo Yongdie and saw her sitting on the side, "Then go outside and look for it, this palace must know where the shadow is now." β
The maidservant was about to leave, Xiao Wanyao spoke, "Cui'er, you go with her, if you can't call two guards from the prince to go over together, this palace will see people dead or corpses." Cui'er couldn't help but smile on the side, "The slave knows, the slave and the maid will go and find the shadow." With that, he left.
As soon as Huo Yongdie saw Xiao Wanyao move out of the crown prince, she snorted coldly in her heart and didn't panic, "If you want to go outside to find a shadow, I'm afraid it will take a little time, if the princess ......" "It doesn't matter, the most time in this palace is time, and this palace is waiting here." Xiao Wanyao glanced at her coldly.
Huo Yongdie took a deep breath after closing her mouth, gritting her teeth with hatred, and after more than half an hour, Cui'er really came back with Shadow. Just outside Xiao Hexuan, on a wooden plank, lay the corpse of the shadow.
Xiao Hexuan's maidservants didn't dare to approach, especially after Huo Yongdie saw it, she hurriedly covered her nose and mouth, "Bastard, dare to bring anything to Xiao Hexuan, do you know that this is my bedroom?" β
Huo Yongdie's angry shouting was useful to the people under her, but it was useless to the people called by Xiao Wanyao, who just stood aside and watched, not paying attention to her words at all.
Cui'er has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she grew up in the barracks, and she has seen a lot of corpses and other things, although she is not very old, she is not afraid at all, "Back to the crown princess, the slave maid found her body at home outside Ying'er, according to her family, Ying'er committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, and she was fished out last night. β
Xiao Wanyao nodded, walked towards the corpse with a straight face, and was stopped by Zhu'er, "Crown Princess, you are pregnant now, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Xiao Wanyao waved her hand, "It's okay, I've seen a lot of this kind of thing in this palace." With that, he walked over and examined Shadow's body.
Huo Yongdie looked at Xiao Wanyao like a monster, she was able to keep her face unchanged in front of a corpse, and she was extremely curious. The corners of Xiao Wanyao's mouth hooked up a faint smile slightly, just when she was inspecting the corpse, Guo Ping came from outside, Huo Yongdie saw him, like a frightened bird, and threw herself into his arms, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm scared of the concubine, take a look." β
Guo Ping looked at Xiao Wanyao and saw that she was standing in front of a corpse to examine, with a look of excitement in her eyes, and immediately frowned, "Wanyao, you are pregnant now, it is not appropriate to do these things, if there is anything, why not leave it to the next person to do." β
Xiao Wanyao glanced up at Guo Ping and laughed, "Wouldn't handing it over to the next person also put the truth in the hands of others?" The concubine didn't mean to do so, but the concubine believed what she saw with her own eyes. β
Guo Ping knew that Xiao Wanyao was a doctor, and it was not strange to see this kind of thing, but in the eyes of outsiders, this could not be more absurd, the dignified princess of Chu State would have a great interest in a corpse, and she still wanted to learn to do it or catch her head to solve the case?
He took a deep breath, stepped forward to hug Xiao Wanyao, and said in a low voice in her ear, "I already know about this matter, you don't have to interfere anymore, princess." Xiao Wanyao looked at him for a moment, "The shadow is the ...... who was killed" "The crown princess." Guo Ping shouted angrily, "It's time for you to go back and rest, no matter what, you have to focus on the child in your belly." β
Xiao Wanyao realized that Guo Ping clearly wanted to suppress this matter, she put down the utensils in her hand, "Zhu'er, let's go!" And he took his own men and departed.
Guo Ping instructed the guards around him, "Carry her down and give her family some silver for a generous burial." After Xiao Wanyao left and Ying'er's body was carried away, Huo Yongdie cried like a tearful man and ran into Guo Ping's arms, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I really scared the concubine to death, the concubine didn't know what happened, and as soon as the princess came, she asked someone to bring a corpse." β
Guo Ping'an stroked the woman in his arms, thinking about how to go back and explain to Xiao Wanyao.
Bi'er stepped forward and said, "A few days ago, Shadow broke one of Concubine Bian's favorite vases, Concubine Fang just reprimanded her, the princess came over and said that if she didn't like it, let her go, and Concubine Fang let Shadow leave the East Palace, but I didn't expect Shadow to be so temperamental, she actually committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, and the princess took ...... again."
"Needless to say, Hongu knows. The concubine is frightened, take her back to the house. After Guo Ping ordered, he asked Huo Yongdie to be sent back to the room, and he went back to the Minghe Palace.
As soon as I entered, I saw Xiao Wanyao sitting on the right seat, slowly drinking tea, and her face was much calmer, Guo Ping glanced at her stomach, which was already slightly raised, he took a smile and walked towards her, "Let's see if the little guy was frightened, I saw such an unbearable scene just now." β
Xiao Wanyao frowned, put down the teacup, and hit his hand with her hand, Guo Ping stood up with a straight face, she said bluntly, "Do you really know about this? Guo Ping nodded and did not speak. If you know, then you should know that Shadow was thrown into the well after she was killed, why don't you let me check it? Isn't she from our place? Or are you worried about someone who will kill someone if you find out? β
Guo Ping glanced at Zhu'er next to him, waved his hand and let her go down, leaving only him and Xiao Wanyao, and then sighed, "It's just a subordinate, even if she really killed it, so what, the matter of giving some silver to Ying'er's family will naturally be settled, but if you really want to investigate, what can you do?" β
Xiao Wanyao snorted coldly, "Are you worried about her father?" Huo Yongdie's father is the prime minister of Chu State, and one person is above 10,000 people, and you will have to rely on him in the future. Guo Ping nodded again and again, "So ......" He was just about to open his mouth to praise Xiao Wanyao's intelligence, but Xiao Wanyao took over, "So you can let her do whatever she wants?" Grass Kan human life? If this happened somewhere else, I wouldn't care, but this is the East Palace. β
Guo Ping sighed, "I know that the matter of the harem is under your jurisdiction, but you can't do this." Xiao Wanyao stared at Guo Ping, pursing her lips vigorously, Guo Ping saw that she didn't speak and looked at her directly, and finally Xiao Wanyao sneered, "Since it is requested by His Royal Highness the Prince, the concubine should obey the order." After speaking, he got up to leave, but was grabbed by Guo Ping, he lowered his head and sighed slightly, "Wan Yao, don't be like this." You know what I mean. β
Xiao Wanyao didn't look back, a sneer appeared on her face, "Understand, the concubine naturally understands the hardships of His Royal Highness the Prince, the concubine is a person from the Wei Kingdom, and it is of no use to His Royal Highness the Prince's power in the court, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally does not have to care about the feelings of the concubine." The concubines also knew that the court must rely on those ministers. Is what the concubine said right? Understandable? β
Guo Ping grabbed her hand and tightened it a little, this is also a helpless thing, "Since the concubines are all right and understand, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let go of the concubines?" The concubine felt a little tired and wanted to go back to rest. β
Xiao Wanyao didn't look back and stood in place with him, Guo Ping finally had no choice but to let go of her. Watching her leave.
Returning to the dormitory, Xiao Wanyao's face was solemn, and Cui'er stepped forward and said, "Crown Princess, that shadow is clearly killed, why doesn't the prince let it be investigated?" I think it was Huo Yongdie who killed her, and it was precisely because the crown princess saved Ying'er from her at that time that she was angry and killed her. β
Zhu'er frowned, "The side concubine is too ruthless, but why does a little girl need to come here." Xiao Wanyao took a deep breath, the battle in the palace in her previous life was vivid, but everyone was more restrained in the palace and cautious in doing things, I didn't expect Huo Yongdie to be so reckless, it seems that her family's status in the court must be not shallow, otherwise she would never have provoked her so openly.
Xiao Wanyao bowed her head slightly, "Zhu'er, take some silver and give it to Ying'er's family." But I had a lot of things to do for a while, and I hurt her. Zhu'er hurriedly said, "The slave has already ordered someone to send the silver over, and the princess doesn't have to blame herself, and it has nothing to do with the princess at this time." β
Xiao Wanyao's eyes were deep, and she took a deep breath, "The battle in the harem has already started now, heh, but I stepped into the play one step later than them, and I will have to be more local in the future." β
Her eyes narrowed slightly, Xiao Wanyao in the past was a docile and amiable person in the East Palace, and at this time, there was a touch of murder in her eyes, and her hand couldn't help touching her stomach, thinking of her own son in her previous life.
She bit her lip, "No matter what, this palace will definitely not let anyone hurt anyone who this palace cares about." She also has to learn to be ruthless and erase the stumbling block that made her the empress of Chu.
Wei State, Tang Siqi was forced by Yan State to reinstate Xue Tianaoguan and continue to lead the army to recover the land south of the Yangtze River. And Mingyu, on his part, has established himself as the king and established his own country in Jiangnan - Zhenguo.
On this day, Xue Tianao was discussing things with his generals in the study, and a maidservant suddenly came outside, "General Xue is not good, the general's wife is gone." Xue Tianao was stunned suddenly, "How could you not see it?" The general's wife said that she was bored at home, so she wanted to go out for a walk, so the slave accompanied her to go out. Madame said that she didn't want to bring too many people, so she only brought a guard with her, and outside Madame asked the slave to buy something, and when the slave came back, she couldn't find Madame. β
Xue Tianao frowned, he was worried about the child in her belly, and ordered all the generals to search for the general's wife in the whole city. After that, I also took someone out to look for it.
Here, in a ruined temple, Gong Qing was tied to a wooden chair and her mouth was gagged. There was no one around.
Xue Tianao led his subordinates to find the mark left by Gong Qing, and soon found this broken temple, broke in, Xue Tianao saw her at a glance, Gong Qing saw his eyes wide, and his mouth made a whining sound.
Xue Tianao was suddenly stunned, "Oops, I've been tricked!" Before the words fell, a large net fell above his head, and he reacted quickly and quickly dodged. But the guards behind him were all captured. Xue Tianao rushed into the broken seconds, took off the rag from Gong Qing's mouth, and only heard Gong Qing shout, "Tianao be careful behind you." A long sword slashed, Xue Tianao hugged Gong Qing and dodged to the side, slowly putting her down, "Tianao, be careful of them and others." β
Xue Tianao's eyes gradually turned cold, he knew that Gong Qing knew martial arts, and said in a low voice, "I'll stop them, and you will find a way to escape from here." βR1154
