Chapter 13: The City is Lit with Red Wedding Dresses (1)
"The father and the emperor are not targeting the third brother, the sons just want to give General Bai justice."
"I don't want to give General Bai justice! In the Great Wei Jiangshan ruled by me, someone dared to touch my Aiqing, but this person was still my son, but he didn't know that General Bai's wife was also my lover! The color of regret was revealed in the emperor's words.
"Madame White?"
"Yes! Back then, on the battlefield, Madame Bai fought with me and General Bai, fought on the battlefield together, lived and died together, and shared weal and woe, and was a rare heroine. She is also the woman I admire the most in my life, so I don't want to give them justice. ”
"Erchen understands!"
"Fortunately, the general's daughter is still alive, and I still have a chance to make amends for them, but to hand over the military power in the hands of General Bai to you, I must give you a marriage."
"Sons obey their father's orders!"
"I hope you treat General Bai's daughter well!"
"Erchen understands!"
After this secret talk was over, the emperor immediately asked Eunuch Zhang to convey the emperor's edict.
"Bai Qianqian, the daughter of General Zhaobai, will enter the palace to see the emperor within two days."
After receiving the order, Eunuch Zhang immediately got up and rushed to Baifu.
When Canglan was about to get up and go to Lingxiao Mansion, the eunuch Zhang Gonggong and the four soldiers from the palace behind him happened to arrive at the gate of the White Mansion.
Bai Qianqian was stunned when she saw this posture, and Canglan behind her hurriedly pulled Bai Qianqian down, and the two knelt on the ground one after the other.
"Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says, it is rumored that Bai Qianqian, the daughter of General Bai, will enter the palace to see the emperor within two days, and there must be no mistake! Chin this! ”
After the eunuch Zhang Gonggong finished speaking, he condescendingly glanced at Bai Qianqian and the female slave maid behind him, and then added, "There shall be no delay within two days, and the girls are invited to enter the palace quickly!" ”
"Thank you, father-in-law!"
It wasn't until Father-in-law Zhang left that Canglan seemed to see Qianqian's uneasiness.
Because this Qian Qian is probably worried that the emperor will ask her about the Bai family's fire.
Although more than half a year has passed since this incident, the case has not really ended, and the murderer has not been found.
Besides, she couldn't remember anything about the day of the crime or anything before.
"There will be happy events when the emperor gathers him!" Canglan understands very well what this coriander is worried about, but this coriander has become the last heir of the White Mansion, and the father's military power is naturally for this daughter to inherit.
Daddy had a good relationship with the emperor and the eldest prince during his lifetime, and the emperor would naturally want to return to the military power.
And the way to get back the military power, one is to reward Bai Qianqian with more property, in short, the emperor will not doubt the identity of this Bai Qianqian now, and will only make more compensation to her.
"Do you know that the emperor's summoning of me must be a happy event?!" Qian Qian smiled coldly, this girl is too smart, right?
"Miss just go tomorrow with confidence, the slave maid has inquired about the news from all directions, the slave maid dares to vouch for the head, it is definitely a good thing that the emperor summoned you."
Qian Qian listened to this girl's words, "Then I'll wait tomorrow!" ”
"Then again, how do you know what's going on in the palace?"
"The slave maid was a concubine in the palace in the early years, and now she is sent out of the palace when she reaches the age of twenty." Canglan was only eighteen years old, and in order to gain Qianqian's trust, he made up a reason.
Of course, for this reason, she will learn more about the etiquette of the palace maids in the future.
"It turned out to be a maid in the palace!" When Qian Qian heard that this maid was from the palace, she couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.
Maybe it will help me a lot in the future, although if you look closely, Canglan does have a look that makes Qian jealous, and she doesn't dare to do anything with a maid, and this simple makeup is enough to make her inferior.
"What's your name?"
"The slave's name is Canglan!" Canglan was slightly startled, she had met once last time, but Qian Qian had forgotten about herself.
"Good! Look at how you look, and be my personal maid in the future! ”
With the help of coriander, Canglan may have more opportunities to get in touch with the investigation of cases.
……
Canglan arrived at Lingxiao Mansion, and parted from love, acquaintance, and parting, this is to see Lingfu again after half a year's absence.
On the second night of the Bai family's fire, she heard Ling Xiao's shout, that night, he must have been looking for himself for a long time.
But that night, he and she missed it, and now Canglan can't call Ling Xiao Ling Xiao's brother, and he can't get his warm embrace anymore...
Will he take that coriander for the real coriander?
Seeing each other but not being able to recognize each other is probably the cruelest thing in this world......
She put away the bracelet in her hand and put it in her arms, along with the last jade pendant of the Bai family.
This is the only thing she can keep that belongs to the Bai family and Ling Xiao.
"May I ask if Lord Xiao is here? I came to deliver a message to Lord Xiao on the order of Bai Qianqian, the eldest lady of the Bai family! ”
"You wait first, I'll go and pass the word to the prince!"
"Thank you!"
While waiting at the door, another man in a black robe came out, looking extraordinary and very human, judging by the gold ring and the crown of golden hair, he should also be a rich child.
"Who are you?" The man went out and saw her.
"The slave maid is the maid of the eldest lady of the Bai family"
"Yo! It's very delicate! Why don't you go to my house?! The man approached and began to stroke her hair.
Canglan reached out angrily and opened his hand.
Although this man looks like a talent, he didn't expect to be a well-dressed beast, how could Ling Xiao have dealings with such people?!
"Please Brother An, be sensible!"
Ling Xiao walked to the door, this voice was neither humble nor arrogant, this An Wang Ye smiled jokingly, "It's just a joke!" Please forgive me! ”
"The slave maid only asks Prince An to do something worthy of his identity in the future!"
"Good! Well said! Girl, it's funny! Then I will leave! ”
"Brother An, go slowly!"
Although this Prince An left, he had doubts in his heart, how could this woman have traces of disguise?
"Just now, my brother An was rude! I hope the girl will forgive me. ”
I haven't seen him for half a year, and Ling Xiao seems to be still the same as before, wearing the same black robe and silver filigree belt.
"Miss Coriander asked me to tell you that you could go to her house in the afternoon."
"Good!" Concise and clear, there are no too many words, in fact, Canglan has been thinking about whether Ling Xiao can recognize himself, but he didn't have it after all.
Canglan looked at Ling Xiao, she tried hard to hide the emotions hidden in her heart with coldness, and at that moment she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, sad or angry.
Ling Xiao was slightly surprised: "I don't know what the girl is doing with me?" ”
"The slave wants to give a word of advice, don't make friends!"
Before this, Canglan never knew that Ling Xiao would have such a friend.
"Just do your part! A girl said the wrong thing, but she can't even save her life! Ling Xiao's words were gentle with a hint of threat, he looked at Canglan and smiled coldly.
Canglan did not have the slightest fear, but replied with a smile that Ling Xiao couldn't understand.
Ling Xiao turned to leave, he knew that Prince An would never provoke a woman for no reason, unless there was something special about this woman, it seemed that this girl was extraordinary.
Wei Xinghan has always been hindered by Ling Xiao's feelings for Qianqian, in fact, he has long planned to marry this fake Qianqian, so that he will have the opportunity to obtain the military power of the Bai family.
But he also thought that even if he married this Bai Qianqian, his father might not hand over the Bai family's military power to him, so he didn't take action for a long time.
But I didn't expect the eldest prince to take the lead.
Before Ling Xiao went to Baifu, Wei Xinghan rushed to Qian Qian's mansion.
In order to avoid the subordinates as much as possible, Wei Xinghan entered through the window of Qian Qian's room.
Qian Qian was taken aback by him, and hurriedly walked behind Wei Xinghan and closed the window, and then closed the door next to him as well.
Canglan was guarding outside the house, only to hear Qian Qian say when she closed the door, "You go to the gate of the courtyard to guard, you can't let all the subordinates in"
Canglan understood one or two of them, so he guarded the gate of the courtyard, maybe there were three princes in the house!
Canglan ordered all the slaves and maids not to step into Miss Yufeng Pavilion for half a step without Miss Qianqian's instructions.
He sneaked into the corner of the house and eavesdropped.
"I heard that my father and my eldest brother are discussing the marriage of the eldest brother, and plan to marry you to the eldest brother!" Wei Xinghan walked to the table and sat down, and Qian Qian brought a cup of tea.
The third prince raised his head and drank the tea, and Qian Qian took the empty cup in his hand and sat on the edge of the bed.
"What if I let you marry him?" The woman in front of him had a shadow of Qian Qian, whom he had liked for many years.
It seems that a trace of coriander can be captured from her, but this coriander is not another coriander after all.
Although there were different expressions in their eyes, her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be clearly coriander.
If he hadn't found this woman who was exactly the same as Qian Qian in the Celestial Empire of the entire Wei Kingdom, I'm afraid he would have been unrecognizable.
However, Qian Qian could feel the ambiguous feelings of the three princes for herself, and Qian Qian pretended to be pitiful, "The Third Highness saved me, I only want to follow the Third Highness!" ”
After saying that, he threw himself into the arms of the third prince, and Wei Xinghan knew what this woman was worried about.
Wei Xinghan frowned slightly, he was not in a good mood, the woman in his arms was charming, but he had no intention of being in the snow, so he pushed her away.
"I am not where you belong! In the future, please pay attention to the proportions of your words and deeds. ”
"Third Highness, I don't want to leave you......"
Qian Qian didn't want to be the same woman as the eldest prince, she said that the emperor doted on the eldest prince, and the one who was most likely to sit on the throne in the future was the eldest prince.
"This kind of thing is not allowed to mess around, if the emperor asks tomorrow, you will agree to this marriage, and I have my own way to do the rest"
Coriander didn't seem to understand what the other was, or she wanted to be sure if the "other" meant what she wanted.
"Coriander doesn't want to marry the eldest prince, since I woke up, I have been in the palace of the Third Highness, and the people say that it is the Third Highness, you risked your life to save me, and Qianqian is unwilling to marry the Great Highness......"
She looked up and saw the three princes' direct gaze, and her voice became weaker and weaker at the end of these words.
The third prince didn't speak, his eyes kept staring at her, this woman didn't dare to look into his eyes, he could see through her heart at a glance.
If today's coriander is really coriander, how can he give it up? It's a pity that she doesn't deserve it!
