Chapter 47: Secret Talks

"Master, has the time for this year's royal state banquet been set, or is it the thirtieth?"

Smiling, she glanced at the pastries sent by Wu Tianrou on the table, Mrs. Wu had just picked up the tea cup, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked Wu Yunyang on the side.

It is customary in Tianshui Country that every year before Chinese New Year's Eve, a state banquet is held by the royal family, and all officials above the third rank must bring their families to attend. At that time, all the nobles will perform programs to cheer up, which can be regarded as a disguised choice of concubines for the prince.

"Well, when I heard them say this morning, it seems that the date has been set, and it will be December 30th, as in previous years. By the way, are you ready for the New Year's gift and the clothes you need to go to the state banquet? ”

After taking a sip of hot tea, Wu Yunyang put down the teacup and said slowly.

"Don't worry, you're all ready, there's still a month left before the state banquet, can I not get ready." I also called the master of the splendid workshop, and I will come to Fuzhong tomorrow to choose fabrics. It just so happens that you will rest tomorrow, so don't go out to socialize, and wait for the master to measure the size at home. ”

Smiling and glancing at Wu Yunyang, Mrs. Wu waved her hand to let Onyx put away the pastries sent by Wu Tianrou.

"It's time for dinner, so let's put away the pastries first."

"It's okay, anyway, I don't have anything to do tomorrow, just rest at home for a day."

Touching his beard and nodded, Wu Yunyang was slightly distracted. Because he had already seen it just now, Wu Tianrou had already put on the colored jade bracelet on her left wrist.

"Alas! It's eventful again! ”

With a slight sigh of emotion, Wu Yunyang walked to the small study on the side, took out a book and read it, wanting to calm down.

Mrs. Wu thought he had something to do, so she whispered to Onyx and Pearl to go to the big kitchen to get dinner.

When Wu Tianrou washed up, changed into home clothes, and ate dinner comfortably in the room, in the second prince's mansion, Situ Jingxuan was still planning things in the study.

"Didn't I tell you to teach that Liu Suifeng a lesson, why is he still alive and kicking after so many days?"

Slapping the desk heavily, Situ Jingxuan looked at the three black-clothed people in front of him with their heads down, all of them with dissatisfaction on their faces.

"Second prince, it's not that your subordinates don't carry out your orders, but that your lord doesn't let your subordinates provoke Liu Suifeng."

Knowing that Situ Jingxuan's temper was not good, the man in black led by him hurriedly stepped forward and hurriedly reported the truth of the matter.

"Oh? Grandpa stopped you, when did it happen, why didn't I know? ”

The fox glanced at the three of them suspiciously, and Situ Jingshuo was a little puzzled.

"It's me who didn't let the Black Hawks provoke Liu Suifeng!"

Just when Situ Jingxuan wanted to say something, Guozhang Zhou Zichuan pushed the door and walked in.

"Alright, you guys go down first!"

Glancing at the three men in black, Zhou Zichuan waved his left hand at them.

"Yes, the subordinates retired."

Raising his eyes and seeing Situ Jingxuan nodding, Black Eagle hurriedly gave a salute and walked out of the study with the two men in black.

"Shuo'er, you're too impulsive!"

Glancing at Situ Jingxuan, Zhou Zichuan sat beside him.

"Grandpa, I just wanted to teach Liu Suifeng a lesson, why was he impulsive. You don't know, this kid actually dares to rob me of Wu Tingrou! ”

looked at Zhou Zichuan with an unwilling face, and Situ Jingshuo's face was full of anger.

"Look what you want! What's the matter, Prince, you don't want to do it? You don't want the throne anymore? ”

Raising his finger at Situ Jingxuan, whose face was flushed, Zhou Zichuan shook his head and glared at him.

"I, of course I want to be the prince and the emperor, but now that any person dares to rob me of a woman, where do I have any face!"

Ascending to the throne has always been the ambition in Situ Jingxuan's heart, and for this purpose, he can do whatever it takes, and nothing can hinder him from achieving this goal.

"It's good that you still remember your wishes, you must know that Liu Suifeng is the son of General Liu, and General Liu has a heavy army, and he is an important target for us now. At such a moment, how can you calculate his son and say that he is not impulsive! ”

Frowning, Zhou Zichuan looked at Situ Jingshuo with a stern face, "You have to understand, when you are in love, maybe Situ Jingtian is already recruiting troops to win people's hearts!" ”

"I see, Grandpa, I won't make this mistake again."

Taking a deep breath, Situ Jingshuo suppressed the hatred in his heart, "Let him go for the time being, after I ascend the throne, I will definitely not let him go!" ”

"Grandpa, then Wu Yunyang has always disagreed with marrying Wu Tianrou to me, how should this follow-up be done?"

"Don't worry, Wu Yunyang is very fond of Wu Tianrou, and he will not let Wu Tianrou suffer at the border, so Liu Suifeng is not afraid."

Seeing that Situ Jingxuan had finally regained his calm, Zhou Zichuan stroked his beard and smiled.

"These girls, how can they not like the handsome son and the glory and wealth. Take your time and use your abilities and dignity to attract her, it's not something that will come easily to you. I see, you were too anxious at first, and that caused her disgust. ”

"I've been thinking about it for a few days, and I think I'm too anxious, maybe I've been on business trips for several times in a row, which makes me a little breathless. I won't rush it anymore, and I will definitely arrange it more carefully in the future. ”

nodded confidently, in Situ Jingxuan's heart, with her appearance, talent, martial arts and respected status, how could there be a woman who was not moved. When he changes his way, Wu Tianrou will not take the initiative to give him a hug.

"As for the ministers who support you, I have now contacted Sun Shilang, Qin Shilang, Commander Wu, and ......"

Zhou Zichuan's voice gently floated in the study, and the secret conversation between the two continued for a long time, until the beginning of the day, the door of the study slowly opened, and the two walked towards the dining room while talking......

Situ Sedum's Great Prince's Mansion, Situ Sedum, who had just finished dinner, was handling official business in the study. There was a knock on the door, and he frowned slightly, and then he motioned for someone outside the door to come in.

"The eldest prince, Young Master Liu is here."

As soon as the attendant replied with a word, he was pushed away, and Liu Suifeng's figure immediately stepped into the study.

"It's not the first time I've been here, what are you doing so wordy!"

"You go down first."

Waving his hand at the attendant who had almost fallen, Situ Sedum raised his eyes to look at Liu Suifeng, who was sitting on a chair.

"Tell me, what's going on again?"

"His grandmother/, Situ Jingxuan, he really wants to attack me! I went out today and found that someone had been following me, and I was just trying to lure them to a hidden place to clean up, but they were suddenly called away. I haven't offended anyone at all since I came back from the border pass, that is, I offended the second prince for you, and he is really stingy. ”

Pouting disdainfully, Liu Suifeng looked down on this kind of trick of plotting and ambushing the most.
