103, the east of the city is different
Just when Nalan Bing and Ouyang Qing arrived at the banquet at night, a small inn in the east of the capital city of Chudong was also very lively.
The name of the inn is Mo Xun Inn, and it was purchased by Aunt Xue with five hundred taels given by Nalan Bing.
The inn opened today, and it was a whip and a lion dance, and there were many people watching the excitement outside the store.
Aunt Xue was dressed in a blue cloth skirt, standing outside the store, with a smile on her eyebrows: "The small shop opened today, please take care of it in the future, some people support the personal field, and those who have money support ......"
Then, Aunt Xue returned to the inn and began to get busy.
She clutched a note tightly in her hand, and when she reached a secluded place where no one was around, she quietly opened it, "I have entered the palace, and I will act at noon." ”
She then put the note in her mouth and swallowed it with a sneer.
The April breeze is fresh and full of life with a natural floral scent.
After Nalan Bing and Ouyang Qing entered the palace at night, the entire Prince Leng Mansion became deserted in the fragrance of flowers.
The guards of the patrol mansion all felt that today's flowers were really fragrant, but they didn't notice that the fragrance of the flowers was a little too strong.
In less than two quarters of an hour, the guards who were still patrolling the mansion just now fell down one after another.
Then several figures quietly descended from the roof and ran in the direction of the palace prison.
It was the same fragrance of flowers, and the guards inside and outside the prison also fell without resistance.
Several people snatched the key to the prison from the commander of the guards and walked into the prison.
After a while, one of them came out of the city with the scarred ink on his back, and several people left in a hurry.
After leaving Prince Leng's mansion, they headed all the way to the east of the city.
At the same time, Bao Zhilin's medicinal herb warehouse in the east of the city also encountered the same encounter.
After the people guarding the warehouse were stunned by the fragrance of flowers, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared and looted the medicinal materials in the warehouse in the east of the city.
And Nalan Bing and Ouyang Qingye had already sat down at the banquet table at this time, waiting for the banquet to begin.
To Ouyang Qingye's surprise, he didn't expect that the young lady he had just saved would also appear at the banquet, and when he heard the person next to him whisper, he knew that this woman was the niece of the Empress Dowager Baili, Baili Yan.
Baili Yan is the concubine of the elder brother of the Empress Dowager Baili, and she is not favored.
But she has been ingenious since she was a child, and when she was five years old, she entered the palace by chance, and she saw through the plan of Xu Guifei at that time to kill Fu'an, the daughter of Mrs. Baili, and saved Fu'an's life.
Baili old lady saw that although she was a concubine, but she was smart and clever, she was a material that could be made, her biological mother died early, and she tasted the warmth and coldness of the world every year, and with time, the future was limitless, so she raised her by her side, so she could be cultivated.
came with Bailiyan, as well as her sister-in-law, Bailishuang.
Although Baili Shuang was not raised by the Queen Mother's side, she was the official descendant of the Baili family, and she was also deeply loved by the Queen Mother.
Today's banquet is held for the Empress Dowager Baili.
Bailiyan and Bailishuang sat next to the Queen Mother on the left and right, and the Queen Mother signaled Ouyang Qingye with her eyes, and then said to Bailishuang: "What does Shuang'er think of Prince Leng?" ”
Among the several princes who are suitable for succession, the third prince Ouyang Qinghe, the fourth prince Ouyang Qingye, the fifth prince Ouyang Qingxiang, and the seventh prince Ouyang Qingbei have all passed away.
Among them, Ouyang Qinghe's mother was a talented daughter, who died of depression when he was three years old.
Ouyang Qingye's mother concubine is the county lord of southern Xinjiang, and southern Xinjiang is far away from Chudong, so there is no such mother family.
Ouyang Qingxiang's mother died early, but the mother family is still there, and she has always been in close contact with Ouyang Qingxiang, which makes Mrs. Baili very unhappy.
Ouyang Qingye's mother also died early, but his mother was only a palace maid in the palace, with a low status, and there was no maternal family.
Several of the princes are still their mothers, especially Rui Wangye, his mother concubine is from the four major families, and she is the person who does not like to succeed to the throne the most in Baili.
Therefore, she chose and chosen, she felt that Ouyang Qinghe and Ouyang Qingye were the most suitable, and among them, she liked Ouyang Qingye more.
The marriage of Ouyang Qingye and Baili Shuang was to envelop Ouyang Qingye, and on the other hand, it was also to test his mind.
If he obediently marries Baili Shuang, and everything is in the middle of everything, she will definitely order the Baili family to fully support him to succeed to the throne, if he has different intentions and refuses to marry Baili Shuang, then she can also make him die quietly like his mother, and then she will turn to support Ouyang Qinghe.
Although Mrs. Baili had already made a decision, she still had to pretend to ask Baili Shuang's meaning.
When Bai Liyan heard this, her hand shook slightly, and the wine in the cup almost spilled.
Baili Shuang looked at Ouyang Qingye, who was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, a golden belt, a tall figure, a cold complexion, and an extraordinary aura, and lowered her head shyly, "Shuang'er, Shuang'er is all up to the Queen Mother." ”
Seeing her ruddy face and delicate and vulgar appearance, Mrs. Baili knew that she liked Ouyang Qingye very much, so she smiled and patted her hand, "With Prince Leng's personality, he can be trusted for life." ”
When Ouyang Qingxiang, the prince of Chu, watched the Queen Mother pull Baili Shuang and stared at Ouyang Qingye, his eyes narrowed into slits, he knew very well that once Ouyang Qingye married Baili Shuang, it meant that he would be the candidate supported by the Queen Mother Baili, so his chances of succeeding to the throne would become more and more slim.
Subsequently, the Queen Mother summoned Ouyang Qingye.
Bailishuang shyly made an excuse to leave.
Seeing this, Ouyang Qingxiang also got up and went with her.
Seeing this, Bailiyan also quietly left.
None of this escaped Nalan Bing's eyes, and she secretly thought that maybe Bai Liyan didn't need her help at all, and she could handle the marriage of her sister alone.
"Cousin Qingxiang, please stay!"
Bailiyan followed closely behind them, and saw Ouyang Qingxiang pretending to meet Bailishhuang, but was coldly left behind by the beauty, and after entering the Queen Mother's Deshun Palace alone, he hurriedly called Ouyang Qingxiang.
Although Bai Liyan has lived in the palace since she was a child, she rarely goes out of Deshun Palace, so Ouyang Qingxiang saw her for the first time today.
However, she is just a little concubine, even if she is raised by the queen mother's side, and she is not as expensive as her concubine, so Ouyang Qingxiang only lightly returned the salute to her.
"Cousin Yan."
"Cousin Qingxiang, do you like Sister Shuang very much, I just saw you follow Sister Shuang all the way?" Bailiyan goes straight to the point.
On the contrary, Ouyang Qingxiang was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "Nonsense." ”
Baili Yan snorted coldly, Ouyang Qingxiang is not as responsible as Ouyang Qingye, has a thief's heart, and has no thief to admit it.
"I'm a cheerful person and I don't like to beat around the bush.
Don't hide it from Cousin Qingxiang, I like Ouyang Qingye.
So, I don't want Sister Frost to marry Prince Leng.
If Cousin Qingxiang likes Sister Shuang and is willing to marry her, Bailiyan has a plan to help Cousin Qingxiang get a beauty, and I can get what I want, but I don't know if Cousin Qingxiang is willing to cooperate with Bailiyan. ”
When Ouyang Qingxiang heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he thought for a moment, and when he saw that Bai Liyan was already a little impatient and planned to leave, he said, "I want to hear about it!" ”
