Chapter 143: The Imperial Meeting
went to Shunning Palace, Mu Zhiling entered the inner courtyard, and froze instantly when she saw the scene in front of her.
She actually saw her brother and Princess Ninghe......
I saw Ning and Princess Ning holding a pen in one hand, standing in front of the canvas, while her brother patiently held her hand and drew one stroke at a time.
The gentle eyes of the elder brother were projected on Princess Ning He's face.
It's a scene that makes people a little unable to take their eyes off it.
Mu Zhiling took a heavy breath.
I was faintly worried in my heart.
She lived two lives, and she also married another woman in her previous life, which she would not fail to see.
Brother He Ning and the princess......
Mu Zhiling was faintly worried in her heart.
Not to mention whether Princess Ninghe likes her brother or not, she is going to Liao to make peace.
Now she didn't dare to determine what her brother had in mind for Princess Ning He, but in the long run, the consequences would be unimaginable.
They can't.
Thinking of this, Mu Zhiling walked forward quickly, walked to Princess Ning He and saluted, and said, "Mu Xiaowu sees the princess." ”
Mu Yu instantly let go of Princess Ning He's hand, and his body took two steps back, almost unable to stand on his feet because his movements were too fast.
Seeing that it was Mu Zhiling, Princess Ning and Princess Ning put down the pen in their hands, ran towards Mu Zhiling, grabbed her hand, and said with a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, "Xiao Wu, why are you here?" ”
Mu Zhiling glanced at Mu Yu, and then said in a low voice: "It was the queen's mother who allowed Xiao Wu to come to see the princess, and Xiao Wu was able to see the princess." ”
When Princess Ning He heard that it was Empress Zheng, there was no smile on her face. "She's kind. ”
"The queen mother cares about the princess very much, but the princess doesn't ......"
Before Mu Zhiling could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Princess Ning He. She smiled and said, "Don't talk about this, Xiao Wu is standing here intact now." It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, Xiao Wu, you wouldn't have to go into the inner prison. ”
Mu Zhiling hurriedly shook her head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with the princess, and besides, the matter has passed, and the princess doesn't need to worry about it." ”
Princess Ning He looked at Mu Zhiling with an indifferent smile on her face. also smiled and said, "You can see it." ”
Immediately, Ning and Princess took Mu Zhiling's hand and sat down together, while Mu Yu kept standing aside.
Princess Ning He didn't speak, and Mu Zhiling didn't dare to say more.
And Mu Yu was reluctant to leave. He stood in the courtyard in a stalemate.
The palace maid poured tea for the two of them, and then retreated.
"Have you heard that the court meeting will be held in a few days? Little Five also want to participate? ”
Mu Zhiling secretly glanced at Mu Yu, who was standing on the side, and said, "Well, although Xiao Wu is clumsy in learning. But he also wants to contribute to Dajin. ”
Mu Zhiling, who said this, secretly despised herself countless times in her heart.
This is the world of Emperor Mingde. She didn't care at all. If it weren't for the fact that there would be a catastrophe in the change of the imperial court, she had already prayed several times in her heart at the moment that the country would change hands.
But at the same time, she hated Liao, if it weren't for Mu Zongsheng's Tongliao, if it weren't for the deliberate letters written to her father by the prince of Liao, how could her father be framed lightly.
Princess Ning He smiled bitterly and did not speak.
It was just a mockery for her.
Soon it was time to leave the palace, and Mu Zhiling followed the mama who led the way to the palace gate.
On the way to respond to the National Mansion. Mu Zhixuan's whole person lost her soul and became depressed.
Mu Zhiling glanced at her carefully and asked with concern, "Sister Xuan, what's wrong?" How did you come out of the palace and lose your soul? ”
Mu Zhixuan didn't have time to put away the gloom on her face, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "It's nothing." ”
Mu Zhiling blinked and said, "I saw that your face was not very good, and I thought you were evil." ”
"Sister, don't worry, my sister is just thinking, in a few days, the people of the Liao Kingdom will come over, we will compete with them, I really don't know how to win, if I lose, what should I do?"
Mu Zhiling shook her head lightly and said, "Sister Xuan, don't think about it so much, and Sister Xuan's piano skills are unparalleled in the country, how can she lose to the people of Liao." Even if you really lose because of a moment of negligence, you can't complain, no one is completely sure, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. ”
After finishing speaking, Mu Zhiling didn't think much about it, but just held Mu Zhixuan's hand lightly.
Mu Zhixuan was so nervous and cramped, I was afraid that it was for the butterfly fan in the Zhaohua Palace.
In the Zhaohua Palace, Mu Zhixuan's every move, if you don't look carefully, you can hardly see it really, and even Mu Zhiling didn't pay attention to it.
But when Mu Zhixuan handed the butterfly fan in her hand to her, she saw the black green in her nails.
That's clearly poison.
Mu Zhixuan actually wanted to poison her.
Will she die again?
No, if you want her life, there are more and better ways, there is no need to take this risk in the Zhaohua Palace.
I'm afraid that Mu Zhixuan wants to take this opportunity to provoke her and Empress Zheng, and then let her have no way to participate in the court meeting.
It's a win-win-win
She really couldn't figure out what made Mu Zhixuan angry and let her treat her like this all the time.
From the age of six.
Now she is more and more convinced that Mu Zhixuan must ......
But even so, how could Mu Zhixuan use poison, isn't she the same as herself......
Thinking of this, Mu Zhiling suddenly took out the butterfly fan from her arms and said, "Sister Xuan, Xiao Wu can see that Sister Xuan loves this butterfly fan very much, Sister Xuan might as well accept this butterfly fan." Moreover, since this butterfly fan is so good, if it is worthy of someone like me who doesn't know how to appreciate it, I'm afraid it's a pity. Only Sister Xuan understands the subtlety and preciousness of this butterfly fan, so it is better to give it to Sister Xuan. ”
Mu Zhixuan's expression instantly petrified, and she said a little unhappily: "Fifth sister, let's accept it, after all, it was given by the queen's mother." ”
"It's just that I don't like it, Sister Xuan has seen me use a butterfly fan, I don't even have a fan, I never liked those things, and now it's reluctant to give it to me. I see that Sister Xuan seems to like the fan very much, Sister Xuan, you don't have to shirk it, if you don't want it, I'll throw it away. Anyway, the queen mother, she has already sent me. What to do with it is my business. ”
Mu Zhiling was rarely tough, and Mu Zhixuan had to accept it.
I feel nervous.
Since she was in Zhaohua Hall just now, Mu Zhiling has always been very strange. seems to be deliberately avoiding this fan, but she really saw that she was doing something in it.
No, she's so stupid, how could she notice what she's doing.
Back in the hospital, Mu Zhixuan vomited wildly, and she didn't slow down for most of the day.
Qiu Ju saw it and hurriedly helped her caress her chest. He said anxiously: "Miss, what's wrong with you, why did you go to the palace and become like this." I'm going to look for that Imperial Doctor. ”
Mu Zhixuan grabbed her and said, "It's useless." ”
She is well versed in toxicity, and judging from the current symptoms of this poison, it is by no means a solution that ordinary drugs can solve. Although the Imperial Doctor Zhang is highly skilled. But there is no cure for this poison.
Besides, if the news of her poisoning spreads. It will definitely spread throughout the Mu family, and if the matter is exposed at that time, her poisonous bento will really be unsolvable.
Now I can only try to detoxify myself, if it doesn't work, just do what the man said.
Since he chose himself, he must not want to take her life.
It's just why he wants her to do that.
She was puzzled.
Who the hell is that person.
Why do you know her thoroughly?
After a few days, the pilgrimage begins.
The mighty procession of Liao envoys entered the gate of the main hall, and then bowed to Emperor Mingde.
did not perform the bowing ceremony of the Great Jin.
And some of the courtiers were very dissatisfied. said: "Bold, don't you kneel when you see the Son of Heaven of Dajin?" ”
And the man who was at the head lifted his head. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "We are originally from the Liao Kingdom, why do we have to bow down?" ”
Emperor Mingde squinted slightly and did not speak.
But the man became more and more rampant, and said: "Isn't there a saying in your Central Plains called courtesy, then I have performed our Liao country's salute to your son of heaven, and this king, as the prince of Liao, should you bow to me in the Central Plains?" ”
The man who spoke was very angry and said, "You are quite unreasonable!" ”
The prince of Liao said with a smile: "No, no, no, this prince is according to your ancient teachings, is it wrong?" ”
Seeing this, Prime Minister Pan snorted coldly and said, "The little prince's words are only half right. ”
The prince of Liao raised his eyebrows, under his high cheekbones, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said, "Oh? Let's hear it. ”
Prime Minister Pan Cheng took a step forward and said: "There is also a custom in the Central Plains, ignoring the barking of dogs, the ancients can tolerate the world's affairs, and a dog can't tolerate it, how can you become a big husband?" ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Obviously, the prince of Liao did not understand what Prime Minister Pan Cheng said.
But all the ministers in the palace suddenly burst out laughing.
One of the accompanying people walked to the side of the prince of Liao and said, "Little prince, he said you are a dog." ”
As soon as the words fell, the prince of Liao Kingdom pushed the man violently.
He stepped forward and said, "Emperor of the Central Plains, is this what you call hospitality?" ”
Prime Minister Pan hurriedly smiled and said: "The prince of Liao has a long way to go, and he is tired of traveling, but I am afraid that he will not understand the meaning of Weichen." This dog is the most sincere animal, and Wechen just hopes that there will be more sincerity between the two countries, nothing more. ”
"And what are they laughing at?"
"They laugh at the foolishness of the ministers, and they can't make what they think clear to you, the prince."
After the prince of the Liao Kingdom glanced at Mu Zongsheng, he finally held back the anger in his heart.
After the next dynasty, there is a dinner party.
The next day, a feast was held in the hunting grounds.
On this day, all the participants attended the banquet.
Mu Zhiling and Mu Zhixuan sat behind Empress Zheng.
The moment Mu Zhiling raised her eyes, she saw Princess Zhenmula not far away.
There is arrogance and indescribability in the deep eyes, and the thick and full red lips are actually a little strange.
Although she is not beautiful, she inexplicably has a commendable gorgeousness.
The first thing to do is kemari.
When the two countries meet, most of them will choose Keju as a competition.
Kemari is not only a form of entertainment, but also a measure of the strength of the two countries.
The Great Jin was led by the crown prince and the five princes, and standing behind them were Zheng Li and Song Yingzhao.
These people, even if they lead the team alone, are extraordinary, let alone a few people together.
If nothing else, this competition will definitely be won by Dajin.
But Mu Zhiling clearly remembered that in her previous life, Dajin didn't seem to win.
She doesn't remember the specific reason, she only remembers that her eyes only fell on Song Yingzhao at that time, as long as Song Yingzhao is fine, she doesn't care about anything else.
The Liao State was naturally a group of warriors led by the prince of Liao.
It's just that why did the prince of Liao wear a mask on his eyes?
Remember that this was not the case in previous lives.
The prince of Liao sat on horseback, looked sideways at Emperor Mingde, and said: "Emperor of the Central Plains, do you look down on my Liao State or what, how did you send out all weak scholars, if we win, I am afraid that we will fall into the handle, how can it feel like our Liao State is bullying you Dajin, hahahaha......"
Emperor Mingde also held his breath and did not speak.
However, the crown prince Song Yingke pointed at the prince of Liao with a horsewhip in his hand, and said: "It's enough for our group of scholars to deal with you, but this palace is not willing to compete with you, otherwise let others see the joke and say that we are a big Jin, and a group of people actually bullied a blind man." Mask-wearing, you say? ”
The prince of the Liao Kingdom was obviously angry because of this, and kicked the horse's belly violently, and the game officially began.
Zheng Li looked around, and after seeing Mu Zhiling behind the True Queen, he was stunned for a moment and then turned his head.
Song Yingzhao looked at Zheng Li, and a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on his face.
The sun is getting hot at the end of March, especially as it approaches noon.
And the people on the field were already sweating like rain, and the people watching became a little restless.
Da Jin led all the way, but Da Jin didn't score a single goal.
The prince of Liao was annoyed instantly, he ignored the rules of the game and went on a rampage, and there was a sharp blade on his wrist.
happened to pass by Zheng Li's side, he quickly reached down and tried to hook Zheng Li's horse's thigh, but was discovered by Zheng Li and hurriedly stopped.
The two were fighting, and suddenly a hidden weapon stabbed Zheng Li's arm, and then his horse suddenly became uncontrollable and screamed.
Mu Zhiling almost stood up.
She stared at Zheng Li nervously, panicking in her heart.
Why is this happening?
And in her eyes, there was more anger.
The direction of the hidden weapon was projected from Song Yingzhao's side, although Song Yingzhao was trying to deal with another Liao warrior at this time, and he didn't see that he did it.
But it was indeed him.
He is the only one who has practiced hidden weapons since he was a child.
I am afraid that except for Song Yingzhao, only Mu Zhiling knows.
No one will suspect Song Yingzhao.
will only think that it was done by the Liao people.
What is Song Yingzhao's purpose, could it be that he wants to watch Da Jin lose?
Mu Zhiling was confused and anxious, but Zheng Li hid the pain and continued.
With a sudden force, he shook the prince of Liao away.
Then he turned around and glanced at Mu Zhiling.
A faint smile was given in return.
The lips were slightly invisibly hooked, but Mu Zhiling could see it clearly.
He said he was fine.
His face turned red.
He said it as if someone was worried about him.
But my heart couldn't stop pumping one by one.
I wanted not to look over, but my eyes were fixed on a back, and I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.
Mu Zhiling finally lowered her head and stopped looking.
Because the outcome of the game has long been decided. (To be continued......)
