After sending Xu Ting away, Xu Zhilan came to the backyard and began to practice swords. A series of things have happened recently, but she never wants to slack off on sword practice, she needs to become stronger, so strong that she doesn't need to rely on others to be able to protect herself and the people around her, especially since she doesn't want to and can't ask for Yu Huiyi's help in the future.

It's just that today's sword can't dance smoothly, although there is a thin layer of sweat, but I always feel that the breath in my chest is stuffy, and I don't have the feeling of being hearty in the past, and the swordsmanship is messy after the dance.

When he was upset and irritable, Lin Quan came back, and Xu Zhilan looked at Lin Quan's dusty but energetic appearance, and felt a lot more relieved. Hurriedly put down the Yuqing Sword and happily greeted him.

Seeing that the little lady was really safe, the big stone on Lin Quan's chest finally let go. It's just that when he entered the courtyard just now, he saw that there was a trace of impetuousness in the little lady's swordsmanship, and his face was not very good, and on the way he also heard that the emperor had decided the marriage of Yan Shangshu's concubine and the second prince, and he was worried that the little lady was sullen about this matter, so he asked out loud.

Xu Zhilan shook his head and smiled sweetly at Lin Quan, "Uncle Lin, don't think about it!" I just used to take care of smallpox patients in the Jiangzhi County Mansion, and I worked hard for a while, and I was too distracted. I haven't rested yet! ”

Since the queen met Xu Zhilan in the imperial garden, she has been thinking about what Xu Zhilan came to the palace today, and she has no intention of appreciating the flowers, so she stayed in the imperial garden for a while, and then returned to the Fengyi Palace.

Huan'er has been listening to the news for a pillar of incense. Waiting left and right, but she didn't return, and the queen couldn't help but be anxious.

was fidgeting to himself, but he heard a report from outside, "Lord Yijun has arrived!" The queen gathered her mind and sat down on the couch.

Song Zilin leaned over and bowed to the queen and greeted her. He sat aside.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, but Lord Yijun's complexion is much better!" The queen's tone was leisurely, and she looked at Song Zilin with a smile in her eyes.

Zilin was killed by Xu Zhilan since the autumn hunt, but she saw that she was safe and sound. I've been resentful about it! Song Zilin didn't shy away from it, and went straight to the point, "Now Xu Zhilan of Naxu Mansion has been dismissed by the royal family and lost face. When I thought that she would never have the chance to marry her second brother again, I couldn't say how happy I was! It is really happy that such an annoying woman has fallen into her due retribution! As he spoke, he looked at the queen with a deep gaze, "People are in good spirits when they are happy!" Zilin is not the only one who is happy! ”

When the queen heard what she said, she seemed to mean something, and asked in surprise, "What is this sentence of Lord Yi?" Hongu doesn't understand! ”

"The queen mother wants to blame Zilin for offense! A woman like Xu Zhilan who doesn't know the height of the sky is strong, she is reckless everywhere, she is in the limelight at the Queen Mother, and she is obedient, but she has been blamed by the Queen Mother! What a troublemaker! Even Zilin is also upset for her mother! The tone was quite resentful, as if he was really angry for the queen.

The queen was said to be in her heart, her face was embarrassed, and then she returned to normal, "The Yi monarch is going to talk nonsense!" There was a hint of anger in his tone, "As the master of the middle palace, how can this palace have a problem with a little girl!" ”

"Mother's generosity! Naturally, I don't take such a little girl to heart! It's just that Zilin has always been quick to talk, and there is no room for sand in her eyes, this Xu Zhilan is really good at drilling, but I'm afraid that if I let it go, it will be a big trouble in the future! Zilin has just returned from the Queen Mother. Guess who Zilin saw? ”

"Really?" The queen stared at Song Zilin.

"Not bad! Xu Zhilan is there too! is talking and laughing with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is called an intimate one to Xu Zhilan! Even Zilin can't compare! ”

The queen's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, but they were still not visible on her face. I didn't expect the Queen Mother to love this girl so much. I heard that there was a quarrel with the emperor for her in the morning. This Xu woman's wrist is really not simple.

"It's nothing! It is common for the Queen Mother and her old people to love their younger generations! The queen still looked calm.

"Yes! The Queen Mother really loves her very much! I'm going to assign her to the fourth brother! ”

"Really?" The queen's eyes widened, her face was incredulous, she unconsciously clenched her handkerchief, and looked at Song Zilin with a solemn gaze.

"It's true! Zilin met the fourth brother on the road, and the fourth brother said it himself! After speaking, Song Zilin looked around and was silent.

The queen understood, and motioned for the maids to retreat. Unexpectedly, the marriage contract between her and the second prince was dissolved, and there was a fourth prince immediately. The queen's heart became more and more uneasy.

"This Xu Zhilan is very powerful! On the autumn hunt, Zilin suffered her losses several times! I don't know where she got those skills. During the autumn hunt, she won the emperor's trust in one fell swoop! On the birthday of the Queen Mother, she took the opportunity to win the favor of the Queen Mother! If she really marries the fourth brother in the future. I'm afraid that it is also a threat to the prince's brother! ”

Song Zilin's words hit the queen's heart. The queen stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Hasn't Lord Yi always been the closest to your second brother?" The implication is that he is worried that Song Zilin is insincere, and he doesn't really care about the prince.

"My brothers grew up with me! Although I have a little friendship with the second brother, the crown prince and the fourth brother are also my brothers, and they treat me very well, I can't bear to see their brothers fight each other in the future! What's more, in my heart, the prince's brother is the future Great Liang monarch! ”

The queen raised her eyebrows, "Lord Yi, what do you mean?" ”

"Niangniang must also know that Xu Zhilan is not a peaceful person! She buys people's hearts everywhere in the capital. Her father has made many military exploits, and in the future, the Xu family will marry the second brother or the fourth brother. For the prince's brother, he is a fierce rival that cannot be ignored! Rather than watching the tragedy of their brothers' rivalry in the future, it is better to prevent it now. ”

Song Zilin's words poked at the hidden worries in the queen's heart. The crown prince has been framed several times, which must be related to several other princes. It's just that at the moment, whether it is the second prince or the fourth prince, there is no power and background to compete with the prince on the surface, so people with ghosts can only play some unpopular means. But if any of them had married the daughter of General Xu, everything would have been different.

"Now this daughter of the Xu family has been suspected and disliked by the emperor. She bought people's hearts in the capital and committed the emperor's taboo. Even if the queen mother presses, the emperor will probably not agree to her marriage with the fourth prince again! "The queen always had a hint of luck in her heart.

"If you're not afraid of 10,000, you're afraid of what if! Niangniang is kind-hearted, seeing that Xu Zhilan has been divorced by the emperor, she can't bear to worry about her anymore! But as the saying goes, if you don't cut the grass and don't get rid of the roots, you will have endless troubles! At the moment, she is disliked by the emperor, but the queen mother loves her so much, not to mention that the world is unpredictable, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no more accidents in the future! ”
