Du Yuanxiu's eyes were full of panic, her tired face couldn't hide it, she didn't sleep last night, she waited in the palace for a long time and still didn't see him come back, but she didn't expect to hear such a news at this time.

Your Highness can't think about it, right?

"Is His Highness's injury serious?" She nervously stretched out her hand and grabbed the palace maid's shoulder, the little palace maid's face was full of embarrassment, and she didn't dare to say much about His Royal Highness the Prince, for fear of getting into trouble.

"No, I'm going to check it out!"

"Niangniang, Your Highness has locked himself in the study, and no one is visible."

Nobody to see? Du Yuanxiu clutched the hand in her sleeve tightly, at this time, she regretted her impulsiveness yesterday, what if His Royal Highness was really disheartened and did something stupid? Knowing this, she kept her mouth shut, at least to let His Highness have an expectation in his heart. Now that he has shattered His Highness's dream with his own hands, how can he share the pain that His Highness has endured?

……

"The princess and her relatives are imminent, the Marquis of Changding is the escort team, escorting the princess to the Yi country, and the county lord of Yongji is the imperial doctor, going to the Yi country to study medical skills, and return to the country one day."

As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar. No one thought that the emperor would send the county lord of Yongji to Chenguo!

Everyone knew that the emperor had abandoned the princess this time to protect the two talents of the Chen Kingdom, but they didn't understand why he had to send the county lord of Yongji out so far? It can be said that in the territory of Chenguo, the medical skills of the county lord of Yongji have been unmatched, and with her, incurable diseases have become easily solved. But if the county lord of Yongji goes to the country of Yi, what will they do if they have a serious illness in the future?

Emperor Chen took in everyone's faces, and then his eyes fell on the place where the prince had been standing, his eyes were vague, if he could survive this time, I believe that the prince would be able to grow a lot, and whether he wanted to or not, he would have to put the burden on him.

This is what he can do for Chenguo, even if he knows that the crown prince is not willing to sit in this position. For the sake of this country, for the sake of the ancestors of the Chen Kingdom, even if he was blamed by his children, Emperor Chen decided not to look back.

"Your Majesty, the county lord of Yongji is an indispensable talent in the Chen Kingdom, and this trip to the Yi Kingdom will be a loss to my Chen Kingdom, and please think deeply about it."

Immediately, a minister couldn't help but stand up, and at this time, the Marquis Changrong, who was immersed in shock, finally came back to his senses, he thought that he had heard it wrong, and the emperor had privately summoned him before to marry Yun Shu to the prime minister. It's already a headache, and nowadays...... Going to Yiguo?

Marquis Changrong immediately stood up, "Your Majesty, the little girl is immoral and incompetent, and the envoys of the Yi State are very important, I am afraid that the little girl will insult the emperor's life." "If there is no minister to dissuade him, Marquis Changrong will naturally not be the first to open this mouth, he is just a shunshui admonition, according to Emperor Chen's temperament, he will not blame him.

"Aiqing is humble, Lord Li said that the county lord of Yongji is an indispensable talent for my Chen country. Princess Yongning's body needs to be regulated, but the county lord of Yongji has won the princess's heart, and he is afraid that other imperial doctors will not be able to take on this important position. There is no need to admonish Aiqing, I have already thought twice. Emperor Chen had a slight smile in his eyes, but when he said this, everyone heard it, and it was impossible for them to change the emperor's mind.

Chang Ronghou opened his mouth slightly, and he didn't know why things had evolved into what they were now. At the beginning, the emperor gave up his favorite Princess Yongning, just to protect Yun Shu and Gu Xunfang, which made Chang Ronghou happy in his heart, his daughter has now gained a firm foothold in the Chen Kingdom, and will definitely bring endless glory to the Hou Mansion in the future, but now, he only feels that one of Yun Shu's feet has stepped on the threshold of the Hades Palace, and there is more than one auspicious.

Why is Yunshu's fate so bad, from the crown princess, to the prime minister's wife, to the envoy of Chenguo, each one is more unsatisfactory than the other.

The ministers obviously didn't understand Emperor Chen's good intentions, and everyone was embarrassed and couldn't stop whispering.

Soon, the news that the county lord of Yongji was about to send an envoy to the Yi Kingdom spread throughout the palace.

"What? Yongji County mainly goes to Yiguo?! In the palace, Xiyue couldn't believe her ears, "Emperor Chen, this is stupid, didn't you let Princess Yongning go and kiss, why do you still want to catch the county lord of Yongji!" ”

Xiyue was actually more nervous than everyone else, her chest heaved and fell, and finally sat down weakly.

What should I do? Relying on the superb medical skills of the county lord of Yongji, Xiyue does not have to worry about the source of the antidote all day long, even if the envoy has already issued the emperor's order, she has not yet implemented it, just because she is prepared. But now......

"What about the Prince? Does the prince agree too?! Xiyue grabbed Xinlan's shoulders tightly, and the palace maid became cautious when she saw her master's appearance, "It seems that after the prince came back early in the morning, he locked himself in the house and refused to see anyone. ”

"......" Xiyue understood why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in such a bad mood these days, before she wanted to discuss with him about borrowing the jade pendant, but she didn't want to touch the ashes of her nose, and now, if there is no Yongji County Lord, she must complete the task quickly.

It's just that...... I'm afraid that the prince has nothing to discuss.

Xinlan watched Xiyue wandering anxiously in the house, thought for a while and retreated, at this time, it is better to go out to see if there is any useful news for Niangniang, otherwise Niangniang is likely to be angry with herself.

A little father-in-law was moving briskly in the corridor with two altars of daughter red in his arms, and at this time, a palace maid came out from the corner, "Where is my father-in-law going in such a hurry?" ”

The little father-in-law was taken aback at the moment, and when he saw that it was the palace maid beside the crown princess, he looked cautious at the moment, "Go to Your Highness." ”

Xinlan's gaze fell on the two altars of daughter Hong, and then nodded clearly, "That's it, let's go." ”

However, she did not leave, and with a smile on her face, she stood in the shade of the tree and waited quietly. The prince borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and he was afraid that it would be a good opportunity for the mother.

Sure enough, after a while, another little father-in-law brought a few jars of wine to Dongfang Xu, Xinlan squatted on the ground and waited patiently, looking at the few waiting father-in-law outside the house whispering.

"Your Highness seems to be drunk......

"Yes, after drinking so many jars of wine, this is not good for His Highness's injury, right?"

"But Your Highness won't listen."

Xinlan's eyes flashed, and she immediately stood up and ran towards Xiyue's dormitory.

"Oh? Your Highness is drunk? ”

"Yes, Niangniang, the slave has been guarding outside for a long time, and His Highness has already drunk several jars of wine."

Xiyue hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether it was the right time to start. If he were a messenger from the past, and he hadn't moved for so many days, he would definitely come to the code to urge him. But this new messenger was silent, which made Xiyue more and more uneasy.

She didn't know the other party's style of acting, and was only worried about whether this qiē was Xiao Huang's suspicion of herself.

In any case, he must ensure that the antidote given by the envoy continues, otherwise His Majesty will definitely wonder where the antidote came from after not poisoning for many days.

Xiyue never understood why everything was outside her plan, she had planned to fascinate the prince of Chenguo as soon as possible, but that Dongfang Xu didn't give herself a chance at all, and just stayed alone in the palace every day without seeing anyone, and she was furious when she rarely met. This made Xiyue have no room to play what he had learned in Yiguo before, and now he has fallen into such an embarrassing situation.

If this continues, before the child in Du Yuanxiu's belly grows up, he will be snubbed and punished by Emperor Xiao!

Thinking of this, Xiyue's face changed, "Let's go, it's time!" ”

In the room, the drowsy man slumped on the table, still holding the jar in one hand.

"Shu'er...... Shu ......" He muttered to himself, at this time, the door slowly opened with a creak, and the silent footsteps slowly approached, Xiyue stood in front of Dongfang Xu, and the man was drunk and unconscious.

Quietly put his hand into his sleeve, put the medicinal mud that had been prepared in his palm, and then squatted down and carefully picked out the jade pendant hanging from Dongfang Xu's waist.

Imprinted the jade pendant deeply into the medicinal mud, Xiyue frowned, and the messenger said that this jade pendant was used by the prince of Chenguo to do things, but he was afraid that there was some mystery in it, otherwise wouldn't it be easy to be imitated?

Thinking of this, Xiyue carefully observed the jade pendant in his hand, this is a fine white jade, but it is not unique. The prince is a thoughtful person, and it will never be so simple.

Saizuki struggled to think of all kinds of possibilities, and finally she did notice something different.

Under this jade pendant, there is actually a small seal.

I see! This is a seal, as long as the prince prints this jade pendant with red clay when he is doing things, won't this seal naturally appear on the paper? And only the familiar can see it, if it is a fake, you can see it at a glance.

Xiyue specially broke a small piece of medicinal mud and carved the seal clearly, and at this time, the man on the table muttered, and she immediately stopped her movements and held her breath, not daring to move lightly.

In the room of the crown prince's side concubine, Du Yuanxiu sat outside the window with a frown, I heard that His Royal Highness was drinking alone in the house again, and if he continued to be depressed like this, it would be very detrimental to His Royal Highness's body.

blame yourself for not covering your mouth, why can't you control your mouth. Your Highness will be like this, it's all your own harm.

As a side concubine, not only can she not share the worries of His Highness, but it will cause trouble for His Highness, Du Yuanxiu has never felt so uneasy about her conscience.

At this time, there was a sound outside, Du Yuanxiu looked back, and saw a guard standing there quietly outside the open window, and she recognized at a glance that it was Shen Qing who had helped her several times.

Every time he appeared, something must have happened.

"Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is drunk today."

Du Yuanxiu's eyes flashed, and he didn't dare to look at Shen Qing's eyes with a little weakness, but he didn't want the other party to remind him, "The crown princess is now beside His Royal Highness." ”

This made Du Yuanxiu can't help but think of the last time Dongfang Xu was drunk, and she immediately panicked in her heart, she was already sure that Xiyue was a spy sent by Emperor Xiao, and now His Royal Highness was defenseless, just afraid that she would do something unfavorable.

"His Royal Highness is drunk, and he naturally needs someone to take care of him, so this palace will pass."

From today on, Du Yuanxiu decided to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by herself, and it is impossible for His Royal Highness and the county lord of Yongji to do so, so as the county lord of Yongji said, she will hold on until that day and let His Royal Highness change his mind!

She never gave up the opportunity to others again
