Chapter 167~168 Niece
The queen originally thought that the emperor wanted to use Fu Ying to marry, and it was a bit of a fuss to make a special title of princess. But the emperor's words woke her up.
"Prevention is better than prevention". None of them can be sure whether the Great Zhou Dynasty has the intention of aggression, what if Emperor Zhou wants to be an emperor through the ages and unify the territorial tribes? Then Dongsheng will become one of the most eye-catching storage around the Great Zhou Dynasty.
They can't find a reason to think about it on weekdays, so how can they not seize the opportunity when they encounter it?
"You have a point." The queen took Fu Ying's hand and patted it: "Good boy, since you understand what this palace said, then there is no need for this palace to worry anymore." A woman's fate is tied to a man all her life, and it is really not a grievance to be able to marry a young hero like Prince Xiang. This is for the sake of peace between Dongsheng and Da Zhou, and why not for yourself?
"The courtiers understand." The words have been said, and the set has been laid, Fu Ying's voice is extremely well-behaved and humble: "Don't worry, the queen will not act recklessly." Unless that Prince Xiang is too annoying. β
Empress......
"Don't say that again. The Prince of Xiang of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the treasure of Emperor Zhou, that is, the national treasure of the Great Zhou. What if Emperor Zhou listened? You're a smart kid, think about it carefully and see if what Bengu said is true? β
"Yes, the courtiers remember." Too late, Fu Ying saluted respectfully.
The queen rewarded two elegant cloud brocade materials, the soft colors are not bright and overstepping, and the light and elegant reveal the bewitching that makes people reluctant to move their eyes, just like a blooming Hanlian. Then he gave her a few snow-white fox skins. "It's getting colder, so it's best to make a shoulder for you."
"Thank you, Queen." Fu Ying saluted again and thanked him.
After leaving for lunch, Fu Ying was released from the palace, and left the palace gate in a luxurious carriage with two good materials and a few good skins.
When I arrived at the palace gate, I saw Xiao Cuo holding a high-headed horse with a beautiful coat as bright as silver and white satin.
He wore an arrow sleeve robe with azure outlining distant mountains and bamboo forests, and his long hair was fixed with a hairpin crown inlaid with eastern pearls. However, none of these brilliance can hide the handsomeness and momentum of his appearance. It can really be called "standing like a Laneige jade tree, smiling like a moon in the arms".
Watermelon and Apricot hurriedly stopped the carriage and saluted with a blushing face.
Xiao Cuo waved his hand casually. Leading the beautiful white horses like Pegasi to the front. smiled: "Little fool, don't come out yet, look at my new sweaty BMW." β
Fu Ying lifted the curtain of the car and watched him approach, his eyes were attracted by the beautiful white horse.
"It's really beautiful!"
"yes, yes. This was given to me by the emperor. It is said that the silver-white sweat and blood of your national god horse to such a journey dΓΉ are also few. Said that this horse deserved to be ridden by me. β
"I want to go down and have a look."
"Come on. I'll hold you. β
Xiao Cuo simply stepped forward, and without the coachman's stool, he held Fu Ying's slender waist and put her on the ground.
Fu Ying's eyes kept falling on the silver-white horse. I like it again, but I'm a little afraid to get close.
"It's really beautiful, the emperor is not wrong, it is indeed worthy of you."
The horse snorted, proudly raised its chin, and the texture on its neck was elegant and powerful, but how naughty it looked at it, coupled with its fur as bright as silver-white satin, Fu Ying looked at it and couldn't help but stretch out his little hand to touch it.
It was only two touches, but the horse paced impatiently and turned his face away. And hissed.
Fu Ying sneered and laughed.
Will this horse still be shy?!
She was immediately interested, and with a smile she stepped forward and hugged its neck, brushing its smooth short hair with her cheek.
"Be careful, it hurts you!" Xiao was funny to look at, thinking that she was so childish and very funny, but he was also worried, and subconsciously opened his arms to protect her, like a hen guarding her cubs.
Fu Ying asked with a smile: "How old are you?" Is it a little girl? β
Xiao Cuo sneered.
Watermelons and apricots are pouting in secret.
"Do you still answer you when it speaks? It is a stallion. β
The horse snorted twice and snorted.
Fu Ying laughed, stroked its back and looked back at Xiao Cuo: "It's still a little boy, just three years old." β
"How do you know? So you can see the age of the horse? Xiao Cuo was surprised.
Fu Ying stuck out her tongue and said it with joy, but who would have thought that she would be able to communicate with animals.
"I only know a little bit about it."
Seeing her holding on to the big white horse, Xiao Cuo smiled and said, "Do you want to run two laps?" β
"Yes!" Fu Yinghui was resolute, and then hesitated. She has a psychological shadow on horses......
"Then I'll take you out of town." Xiao Cuo casually wrapped his arms around her waist and sent her up, Fu Ying sat on the horse's back, he immediately jumped up, turned around and ordered watermelon and mountain apricot: "You go back first, and tell Mrs. Wu Luohou that this king took the princess to the outskirts of the city to walk the horse." β
The words fell, and the silver-white shadow had already galloped away.
In the distance, Ah Yuan and Archer hurriedly got on their own jujube red horses and galloped to catch up.
Watermelon and Apricot glanced at each other. They all found that after the princess entered the palace, her attitude towards Prince Xiang seemed to have changed. If the queen mother knew, she would be happy, right?

Xiao mistakenly chose the sparsely populated path and took Fu Ying out of the city, and when he arrived at a place where there was no one outside the city, he immediately sped up.
The four hooves of the white horse were so cheerful that they flew out more than a mile in a few breaths. Fu Ying was circled in front of Xiao Cuo, feeling the speed of the wind and lightning, letting the wind blow her long hair, almost squinting to get used to it.
After running out of more than thirty miles in one go, Xiao Cuo gradually slowed down, Fu Ying simply leaned on him and said with a smile: "Has it ever been named?" β
"Not yet, I want you to get one for me."
"It's tall and tall, and it's going to follow you. Naturally, you can't call them candy balls, rice, white radishes, or anything like that. β
Xiao mistakenly wiped his sweat.
"Forget it, I still don't need you."
"Why? I just said I was going to help choose the name. "Pout, this man doesn't mean what he says.
"Look at your name. If I think about it, it's called Snow White. β
"This name is not good, isn't the snow going to melt in spring? It's better to call it white rice than white snow. β
"White rice is not white rice when you eat it." Xiao Cuo pinched her white cheeks.
Fu Ying thought about it for a while, and nodded seriously: "But it's also true." It's just that you are so heroic, and the name of the horse is too feminine to call Bai Xue. β
As if in recognition of her words, the white horse actually took two steps.
Fu Ying was amused and laughed, "Or it's called Yufeng!" β
"That's good. It's called the wind. Xiao Cuo hugged Fu Ying's waist and bent over to pat the neck of "Yufeng".
The wind seemed to feel it again, and he briskly led the two of them along the official road. Ah Yuan and Archer in the back are more likely to see the figures. This is a reassuring interlacing.
Not much. I saw a broken ordinary blue carriage, two little girls were squatting there to remove the wheels, and another was dressed in a plain white brocade robe as a man, and a pretty girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was standing leisurely and shaking a folding fan. beside her. There were also four men dressed in dark blue short brown. At first glance, it's guards and the like.
If an ordinary girl dresses up in men's clothes, she must want to hide people's eyes and ears for the convenience of travel. But her figure is curvy, and her black hair is tied up high. also lightly applied fat powder, so that people knew at a glance that she was a girl's family.
Because the carriage occupied the road, the speed of "resisting the wind" gradually slowed down.
Fu Ying took a closer look at the girl's appearance and was not only amazed. The way this girl dressed in men's clothes not only did not feel nondescript, but also added a lot to her heroic appearance.
It's beautiful!
The two intersected, and Xiao stopped "resisting the wind".
The girl raised her eyes and looked at the visitor, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The silver-white horse carried a pair of men and women who were as elegant as a fairy and had stunning appearances, and anyone who saw them at first glance would look twice.
But the girl looked at them differently.
Fu Ying was keenly aware that when the girl looked at Xiao Cuo, extremely complicated feelings flashed in her eyes, and when she saw her, she even revealed a little nostalgia.
If she hadn't been staring at her, if she hadn't had the acumen of a cat, she wouldn't have been able to notice the girl's instantaneous change and instant calmness.
"I'm sorry. My carriage suddenly broke down, blocking the way of the two of you, please forgive me. β
Xiao Cuo squinted at the girl, only sat upright and looked at her condescendingly without speaking.
The four guards beside the girl were all nervous, and they looked like they were ready to fight.
"You...... Have we met? β
Fu Ying looked at Xiao Cuo in surprise. Does he recognize this man?
The girl smiled complicatedly: "You may have recognized the wrong person." β
Xiao Cuo turned over and dismounted, and hugged Fu Ying down, so that he could see her face more clearly.
"Are you from the Great Zhou?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Do you have a name called Ling'er?"
ββ¦β¦β
"What's your last name? But the surname Xiao? β
Fu Ying was stunned. surnamed Xiao, is there still a relationship with Xiao Cuo?
The girl only looked at him fixedly, and then said, "You recognize the wrong person." I'm not from the Great Zhou, and I don't have a surname Xiao, but I do have a single name. β
With such an answer, Xiao Cuo's face was clear, "Then what is your surname now?" β
This question is clear, and it is clear that the surname of the family is Xiao! Fu Ying's misty eyes looked at the two of them brightly.
The girl pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Cuo with such a complicated expression, and only sighed for a long time before she sighed and said, "My surname is Fu." β
Fu Ying's eyes widened. She couldn't mean to say that, would she?
"Fu Ling? Fu Ling ......" Xiao Cuo seemed to be chewing on the name, and then sighed and said, "That's it, the surname Fu is also very good." How have you been out all these years? β
Fu Ling smiled and nodded: "Very good." Looking at Fu Ying, who was protected by Xiao Cuo, "What a handsome and lovely girl, is she Miss Fu, the daughter of Wu Luohou?" β
Feelings: This girl knows everything.
Fu Ying became more and more curious.
"Exactly. Ling'er, we haven't seen each other for four years, why don't you find a place to have a cup of tea, and talk to each other, okay? β
Fu Ling frowned hesitantly, her beautiful eyes were shining, and she looked at Xiao Cuo hesitantly.
At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind him, and Archer and Yuan were riding just ordinary horses, and this time they finally caught up.
Seeing these two people, Fu Ling shook his head hesitantly.
Xiao Cuo twisted his eyebrows: "They are all my people, they can be trusted." β
The corners of Fu Ling's lips raised slightly, and she moved her steps slightly, blocking Archer's vision with her tall figure and the white horse on the side.
"Today is not the time." Fu Ling lowered his voice: "And the person who brought it is not right." I have a medicinal herb shop in the city, if you don't dislike it, tomorrow I will only bring Miss Fu and the one who is close to you out, and you can talk freely. β
Xiao Cuo looked at Fu Ling with his eyebrows twisted and did not move.
It just so happened that the wheel had been repaired, and someone was calling the "owner". Fu Ling bowed, and then walked quickly to the carriage. Only Xiao Cuo and the others were left with a back.
Four men escorted the carriage and drove in the direction of Shengjing City.
Archer just didn't see the person clearly due to the perspective problem, and said curiously: "Lord Wang, who is that person just now?" β
Ah Yuan pursed his lips and bowed his head silently.
Xiao Cuo thought about it, but still said: "I just arrived here, and it happened that their car broke down and was being repaired, so I asked if I needed help." β
Ah Yuan smiled: "The master is so enthusiastic and kind. β
Xiao Cuo didn't seem to have the heart to continue shopping, so he said, "Go back, otherwise my stupid family will be hungry." β
Fu Ying glared at him.
How could she be hungry now?! She was curious! Who the hell is that girl!
Running all the way, "Yufeng" once again threw Archer and Ah Yuan far away, Fu Ying couldn't help asking: "Ah wrong, who is that girl?" Is it a relative of your family? β
"Hmm." Xiao Cuo didn't hide it from her, and said, "I have a niece who disappeared four years ago. β
"Your niece......" Fu Ying thought for a moment and said in amazement: "Isn't that the princess?!" β
"yes. Four years ago, it was the most rampant year before the death of the old emperor of the Northern Barbarians, and the imperial brother arranged for my niece to go to make peace. But the old man in the North Barbarians was sixty-six years old. And the customs of their barbarian people are very different from ours. My niece was killed the day before she learned that she was going to be married, and she happened to be rescued and raised for more than half a year, until she left the capital, she was silent, who knew that she ran away halfway. β
"Running away from marriage?!" Fu Ying couldn't help but stroke his palms: "If I were to run away, marry such an old man, would I do it and cause others to be harmed?" β
"yes. The imperial brother was furious about this, and ordered someone to hunt her down for a long time, but he didn't expect her to appear in Dongsheng. β
"I think she's about your age, not like your niece."
Xiao said wrongly: "I am two years younger than my imperial brother's second prince, and my niece is one year younger than me." She was as old as you are when she disappeared. β
Fu Ying nodded: "Now that your Beiban is also peaceful, and I think this Princess Ling'er is doing well outside, don't tell your royal brother more." β
"If I have the heart to sue Brother SΓΉ, shouldn't I expose it to my face? I just don't understand, why did she ask me to guard against Archer like that? (To be continued......)
