Chapter 54

"Wei Chen didn't think there was anything wrong, these people were the eldest princess's domestic guards, the eldest princess could send as many people as she wanted, Wei Chen just sighed that the eldest princess had made a big move to Miss Shen Er." Tingwei slowly accepted the white chess pieces and said at the same time: "But I didn't let the second lady know." ”

The breeze swept by, the mountains and green bamboos swayed in the wind, swaying, Wei Yang's hair between the ends of the white hair silk with the bamboo wind moved slightly, she held the green tea in her left hand calmly, and her thin eyebrows blurred the upward angle in the cloud of tea. She replied lightly: "Sometimes, you don't necessarily need that person to know what you do. ”

"Why?" Ting Wei asked softly.

Wei Yang rubbed his fingers against the chess pieces, "No need for a reason. Lone only hopes that she can go on forever with her own ability, and her cousin is a very strong person, she doesn't need Lone's strength. And Lonely, it is enough to silently protect her behind her back. ”

Ting Wei said: "It is remarkable that the second young lady can come to this day in this capacity. "A young lady who is not valued in the palace is running around for the most powerful female politician in the palace and outside the palace, and her ability must not be underestimated.

He remembered that day the Empress Dowager sent him out of the palace to investigate the assassin encounter between her confidant Gao Dezhong and niece Miss Shen Er, and in the messy alley, the poor little eunuch was in the corner. This is a contest of power and power, so blatantly killing the killer.

A few days later, he truthfully told the Empress Dowager the information he had obtained, speculating that Shiyou* was a dead soldier raised by the Xiao Mansion. As for why they had murderous intentions, they probably thought that tracking this kind of thing would not send out such a valuable person, plus they died in a deserted and remote place, and Li Chong would have already left when they found out. Who would have thought that the second lady would do it herself in order to assist the queen mother's eldest sister and concubine, as if she was afraid of missing a little detail.

Fortunately, it was the eldest princess who saved her.

Even the Queen Mother was full of emotion afterwards, otherwise how could she explain to the Shen Mansion.

In the cabinet of the Yongshou Palace, Tingwei retired from the Queen Mother as usual, and the eldest princess Wei Yang stood in front of the long red ridge carved window on the verandah, her back was as beautiful as a lady's painting, thinking about the importance of Wei Yang between the emperor and the queen mother, he stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, Weichen is Tingwei, and he has been investigating the matter of the alley for the past few days. Those assassins can tie with His Highness's attendants, and they are really extraordinary, and Wei Chen feels that Xiao Fu is very good at training dead soldiers to do assassinations and other things. ”

"Well, after all, it's a family of military attachés." Wei Yang took the conversation of a subordinate official naturally.

"Wei Chen is privately concerned and asks, are Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and the second lady injured?"

"It's okay to be lonely, but it's my cousin, she has bruises on her knees."

"Miss Shen Er is very brave." Tingwei said again, "It's just that the queen mother said that she only sent the second lady and the high school nobles out of the palace, why would the eldest princess come to the rescue outside the palace?" ”

Wei Yang didn't expect someone to ask like this, she paused for a moment, and then said lightly: "Huh? Lone followed her out. ”

"Went out with her?"

"Lone is worried about her safety, and if Lord Tingwei has a cousin, he will also understand Lone's feelings." Wei Yang's expression was the same when he spoke, but Ting Wei saw that although she said this in a light tone, it was extremely gentle.

He seemed to see that when Second Miss Shen took the initiative to leave the palace in order to find a good future in front of the Queen Mother, the cold and beautiful figure of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess stood far away from her, silently watching Second Miss Shen Shuzhao leave the palace. In the end, he gently instructed the subordinates beside her, in a place where she couldn't see, follow her every step of the way, pass through every scenery, if Miss Shen Er is safe and sound, and finally return to the palace silently, and keep silent; If something happens, just like then, immediately show up to help.

"She doesn't need the power of loneliness." Wei Yang's words echoed around him.

"It's enough to be alone behind her and silently protect her."

……

Ting Wei sat alone next to the chessboard, secretly thinking about these words, this eldest princess treats her cousin like a sister, how lucky is she to have such a confidant in her life? The royal family is a battlefield that is not inferior to the frontier, and it can meet Bole who understands him so well......

I really have no regrets in this life.

Green tea is cool, and the wind does not extinguish. In Qingzhuli, Tingwei thought about Fang Cai's black-and-white battle game alone, and then reviewed the chess path and slowly thought about the solution, and a graceful figure slowly walked out in front of him, and a woman's gentle and beautiful face appeared in front of him. Tingwei stopped playing chess and said respectfully to the young empress dowager's henchmen who came: "Second Miss Shen." ”

Shen Shuzhao glanced at Tingwei's chessboard, "Tingwei has a good memory, and he can restore the endgame on the chess game by himself." ”

Ting Wei said: "This official is just passing the time casually. ”

"This matter has been settled, and now you can go back and report to the Queen Mother."

"Second Miss is so efficient."

"That's because the Queen Mother never needs people who are slow to be efficient."

Shen Shuzhao walked over, she sat on the only stone bench opposite Tingwei, the tea fragrance was bursting, but in the cover of this aroma, she still smelled the faint fragrance - this cold fragrance, it seems familiar? Shen Shuzhao moved his hand to help Tingwei put away the remaining chess pieces, and muttered in his heart, this Tingwei is really patient, playing chess and drinking tea alone in the forest can be so enjoyable, if she is replaced, she can't wait so long.

At this time, a gust of June wind gently blew by, but between the ten thousand bamboos, Shen Shuzhao did not feel cold, just because of this wind, it was so warm that someone silently hugged her into his arms.

It's very warm......

Back in the palace, Shen Shuzhao told the Queen Mother that it was true that the people were forcibly occupied by the Xiao family's son, and the government had written a complaint on their behalf, and waited for someone to add fuel to the fire when Li Chong's matter was investigated to the Xiao family.

The Queen Mother is naturally relieved of her affairs. Under the inducement of the Queen Mother, the current discussions in the DPRK and China have fallen to the Xiao family's head intentionally or unintentionally. Among the methods of these politicians, the most untraceable method is to impose public opinion.

Empress Xiao sat in the middle palace position in the harem under great pressure, and the Xiao Mansion is now also shy about people who come to visit. Nowadays, there are few court officials who have made big moves, who can guarantee that this is not the emperor's plan to carry out a major reshuffle of the court?

After dark, Shen Shuzhao returned to Qinglian Pavilion exhausted, and it was already nightfall. As she passed by the Empty Cicada Hall, she habitually stopped. After hesitating for a long time, he finally turned around and walked in.

"Miss Shen Er has arrived—"

The palace people reported at the main entrance.

"Shh," she said, "it's not too late, it's quieter." Stopping the palace people from reporting inside, she walked towards the palace.

When she walked into the bedroom of the eldest princess, Wei Yang was sitting by the window, holding a scroll of poetry in her hand, the green silk was not combed into her sideburns, and it was scattered on her soft shoulders, so beautiful that people couldn't breathe. Shen Shuzhao held her breath and quietly walked behind her, bowing her head slightly, and the fragrance of books and the light fragrance on Wei Yang's body hit together. "What are you looking at?" She spoke up.

"New Words for Military and Political Affairs."

After blurting out, Wei Yang looked sideways in the direction where someone was talking just now. "W-when did you come back?"

Shen Shuzhao said with a smile: "The eldest princess is really fascinated by reading, and she didn't even know that I came in, which is too miscalculated for people who practice martial arts." ”

Wei Yang put down the book and narrowed his eyes slightly, "When did Lone ask when you came in?" ”

After she said this, Shen Shuzhao remembered that Wei Yang had just asked when she came back, not how she came in—it turned out to be ...... Wei Yang already knew about her sneaking in! Remembering that she was still tiptoeing behind others, and Wei Yang was still sitting still reading calmly, she quickly turned red, threw herself into Wei Yang's arms, and said, "How do you know everything-"

Wei Yang stroked Shen Shuzhao's long hair and asked softly, "Where did you go today?" ”

"Go to a remote place in the capital."

"Remote? Are there enough guards. ”

"That's enough," Shen Shuzhao got up from his arms, "Speaking of which, your queen mother is too cautious this time, and there are more than a hundred secret guards dispatched alone." In fact, the last assassination was just a mistake, where will the Xiao family strike again? I've never been followed by so many people in the dark, I just feel uncomfortable. ”

Wei Yang grabbed her waist, smiled, and didn't speak.

Shen Shuzhao leaned on her shoulder, "You say, what position will the eldest sister give to the emperor when she enters the palace this time?" ”

"I don't know, it's not something he can decide."

After hearing this, Shen Shuzhao smiled, yes, this is not for the emperor to decide. He's so pitiful.

"You can't leave the palace lightly in the future and marry the eldest son of the Jiang family arranged for you by the Queen Mother." The thought of this made her feel resentful. Why can he go there as soon as they meet, she has had a crush on Wei Yang for so long to get this treatment.

Wei Yang's fingers around her waist curled the ends of her hair, and his tone was provocative: "You can rest assured." If a man wants to carry a lonely hand, at least his hand must touch the tiger talisman. ”

Shen Shuzhao smiled slightly after hearing this, raised his head and said, "Then I haven't touched it either, can't I hold your hand?" ”

Wei Yang lowered his head, pressed her aside, and said softly, "You're not a man—so you're a different story." ”

"Princess, does anyone know that you are pressing the Queen Mother's right-hand man, Miss Shen Er, like this?"

"No one should know, so does anyone know that you are teasing Her Royal Highness the eldest princess who holds military power?"

Shen Shuzhao's tone was low: "......"

……

"You're bullying me again."

Her last voice was so small that the person opposite didn't hear it, and in the eldest princess's bedroom, it sounded like a charming style. At this time, no one will come in, and no one will be discovered, no one will disturb the world, the two women are surrounded by the poetry of many pages that have been blown up by the wind, Wei Yang's fingers picked up Shen Shuzhao's chin, gently raised the angle of looking up, and then sent a deep kiss......

In fact, in this world, many things cannot be explained clearly.

For example, I inexplicably like a verse, I like to do one thing for a long time, and I suddenly like someone.

After a long time, the cicadas outside the window chirped and accompanied people to sleep.

A soft female voice sounded:

"You don't need to know a lot of what I've done for you."

Wei Yang kissed the woman who had fallen asleep peacefully in her arms because of a day's work, and then propped up one hand on the window, looked sideways at the tired sleeping face in her arms, and said softly:

"You just have to move forward."
