Chapter 55: Invitation
Of course, I want to find out how favored you are, in case she is oppressed by Xue Jinian one day, she can't be considered when she rebels, whether the senior brother can protect her.
"It's nothing, I just want to ask, you know, I have no roots in the palace, anyone can kill me, if you are a high authority, I don't have a backer, then what am I afraid of them."
Hua Qian's words were straightforward, but Shen Ye was comfortable when he heard it.
He couldn't help but poke Hua Qian's head with a finger: "It's nothing to be unfavored, that's the word used by the harem concubines, don't apply it to the courtiers." I am now in an ordinary position, obeying Your Majesty's orders and fulfilling my duties, and I think that in the name of Your Majesty's benevolence, the future should not be too bad. ”
He didn't tell her that he was the third son of the Marquis of Ningchang's Mansion, nor did he explain to her in detail how much power the commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei had, he was afraid that she would have other ideas. This junior sister has been more clear and strange in her brain circuits since she was a child, which is different from ordinary girls. He was afraid that what he said would scare her away.
"But you don't have to be afraid in the harem, although Jinyiwei doesn't care about the affairs of the harem, if you really want to meddle in some internal affairs, you can do it."
Hua Qian nodded, thought about it and said, "Then if I accidentally reveal my identity one day, will it affect you?" ”
Shen Ye also nodded, and replied directly: "Yes!" ”
"Then if you poke me out now, it shouldn't hurt you, right?"
Shen Ye looked at her with a foolish look: "What do you say? What about the brain? ”
Hua Qian touched his nose and said twice, this question seems to be quite silly.
"I'll figure out a way for Bi Lingtian's poison, in short, you are ready to leave at any time."
"This deep palace inner courtyard, how can you leave if you want to."
"You don't want to go?"
"How is that possible?"
"As long as you are not greedy for this glory and wealth, I will definitely be able to keep you safe."
Hua Qian smirked: "Okay." ”

Huanyi Palace
Princess Anping listened to her mother's words and was overjoyed: "Mother, you mean that Xue Jinian arrested Changning and Changle and put them in prison?" ”
Imperial Concubine Liu Ruyue stroked the long armor on her hand and replied softly: "Not bad." ”
Xue Jinian promised her last time that she would seek justice for Princess Anping, but she never thought that it would be for the two Changle sisters to have a "one-day trip to prison".
"Then why did you release it again? Those two sluts should be kept in prison all the time. ”
Liu Ruyue's beautiful eyes were horizontal: "I forgot what this palace told you before?" ”
Princess Anping was taken aback and hurriedly apologized: "The mother concubine can't help it, the son is in a hurry, and there is a mistake, and I ask the mother to forgive the sin." "It's all because she didn't keep her mouth shut before, which caused the mother concubine to lose the right to be the assistant of the six palaces.
Of course, Princess Anping will not blame herself, but will put all the fault on the two Changning sisters.
If they hadn't provoked her that day, she wouldn't have been angry and said something inappropriate.
She can't swallow this breath!
If Hua Qian knew Princess Anping's current mentality, it is estimated that she would have to sigh again, how can the princess of this heavenly family have the same virtue, Princess Changle still does not think that her behavior is wrong, she holds her breath, and is ready to spray Princess Anping at any time.
Liu Ruyue said: "It's good that Xue Jinian can vent his evil anger for you, can he really lock them up for a lifetime." Thinking about it now, Wen Wan must be very angry. Thinking of Empress Wen's appearance at the moment, Liu Ruyue covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly.
It's a pity that she can't move around now, otherwise she really wants to go and see the grievances that Queen Wen has suffered a loss but can only swallow in her stomach.
"Mother, will they sue their father?"
"Nope! Naturally, if they really found it, Bengong would be even happier. ”
"Why is the mother so sure?"
Liu Ruyue was about to speak, but the palace attendant came to spread the word, and the four princes came.
Princess Anping was overjoyed: "The Fourth Emperor Brother is here." Without waiting for Liu Ruyue to speak, she jumped off the chair and ran to the door.
Soon, a young man came in from outside the door, and after saluting the imperial concubine, he said to Princess Anping with a smile:
"I heard the royal sister complaining from afar, but because of the last incident?"
Princess Anping curled her lips: "No, Brother Huang, you must avenge me." ”
The fourth prince glanced at the imperial concubine and said, "What's so difficult about this?" ”
"What countermeasures has the imperial brother thought of?"
The four princes doted on Princess Anping's nose and said with a smile: "No matter how powerful they are, they are only daughter countries after all, what big things can they achieve?" ”
When Princess Anping heard this, she immediately understood.
No matter how powerful Queen Wen is, she only has two daughters, and no matter who ascends to the position of Ninety-Five in the future, she can only be attached. The mother is already incompetent, not to mention the two sisters of Changning and Changle, who are not siblings who ascend the throne, even if they are princesses, they will not be much better in those days.
But she is different, although the position of the crown prince is not decided now, the fourth prince and the sixth prince are the only two candidates to fight for now. After all, the eighth prince has just been able to climb now, and his mother's status is low, so it is still very early to compete with the two of them.
As long as the fourth emperor brother wins the throne in the future, Queen Wen's family must not be pinched in the palm of her hand?
Thinking of this, Princess Anping was in a good mood.
The imperial concubine stroked her daughter's hair and said with a smile: "What? Figured it out? ”
"Well, Erchen has figured it out, Erchen's revenge is not in a hurry to be avenged, and when the imperial brother is crowned with a great treasure, Erchen sees how the woman is crying and begging for mercy."
"So the mother concubine told you, you have to endure everything, why bother with Changle's little girl for a while, in this palace, the last person who lives can laugh for a long time."
"Erchen understood." Princess Anping happily saluted the imperial concubine and said, "The son-in-law seems to have something important to discuss with the mother-in-law, so the son-in-law will not bother, and the son-in-law will retire first." ”
"Well, let's go down."
Seeing Princess Anping happily leaving Huanyi Palace, the imperial concubine turned around and said to the fourth prince: "This palace is such a daughter, you have to take care of it more in the future." ”
"Mother concubine rest assured, Erchen only has one sister, Anping, and he will definitely not let anyone bully her in the future."
Listening to the respectful promise of the four princes, the imperial concubine nodded, looking at the eyes of the four princes becoming more and more loving.
This is her hope for the future, all hope......
After all, she lived up to her year, and she deliberately took him to her knees to raise him......
Concubine Qi, you can rest in peace!

Due to the sudden appearance of Empress Wen, Princess Changle's "skinning operation" had to be stranded.
For the next month, Princess Changle felt that she was bored and the grass was about to grow.
She first washed herself inside and out several times, swept away the bad luck of the edict, and then thought about everything that happened during this time, and finally came to a conclusion with great clarity: Liu Ruyue is a slut! Dare to instruct Xue Jinian to commit murder in secret!
Thinking of his own prison, this revenge is not revenge!
In view of the current momentum of the imperial concubine Liu Ruyue and the popularity of her favored retainer Xue Jinian, Princess Changle thought about it and had no way to start.
But it doesn't matter, there's someone else who can take her wrath.
- Xue Qi!
She sent someone to find out the name.
The queen mother said that she couldn't stab this matter in front of her father, but after suffering such a big loss, Princess Changle consciously didn't take back a city, and she didn't have the face to see her ancestors when she died.
"Princess, we can't go out, why can't we summon people into Feiyun Palace?" Huazhi's words woke up the dreamer with a word.
Princess Changle's eyes lit up, rubbed her hands and excitedly circled the front hall a few times: "It makes sense, the order of the palace, he has to obey it, and he has to obey it if he doesn't!" Just do it, summon Xue Qi into the palace! ”
However, Huazhi was a little worried: "But now, when the princess is being punished, if it spreads, will it ......?"
"What about getting it out? Bengong didn't step out of Feiyun Palace, and second, he didn't violate the palace rules and imperial decrees, even if it was spread out, who dared to chew the root of his tongue, Bengong tore her mouth! ”
The threat of domineering side leakage suddenly made Hua Zhi full of confidence: "Yes, the slave and maid obey the order, and the slave and maid will order someone to do it." ”
"Wait!" Peerless Tang Gate fo
"What's wrong?"
Princess Changle hated that iron could not become steel, and a steel jumped on the flower branch: "Stupid! The palace has always been unpleasant to the east factory, and everyone knows it. Now that the people of Dongchang are summoned into Feiyun Palace for no reason, do you think it is in the past? On the surface, you have to be more beautiful, so as not to be seen at a glance that the palace is calculating Xue Jinian's bastard. What if they find out and don't come to the door? ”
Hua Zhi nodded, covered her head and asked, "Then what is the princess going to do?" ”
"Bengong personally wrote a letter, I don't believe that Xue Jinian will not take the bait!" Princess Changle's big red lips hooked slightly, and she smiled proudly.
Flowering branch:......
After spending an afternoon in the study and scrapping countless invitations, Princess Changle finally put down her pen with satisfaction and couldn't wait to send someone to the East Factory.
He also instructed Huazhi: "Huazhi, you go and invite my imperial sister to come over tomorrow." ”
Hua Zhi didn't know why: "What do you ask Princess Changning to do?" ”
"Do you need to ask?" Princess Changle glared at her dissatisfied.
A misty flower branch: ......
Seeing that she wanted to say but didn't dare to say it, Princess Changle said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, what are you doing?" ”
Hua Zhi hurriedly said: "Princess, Princess Changning is also under punishment now, if she leaves Feique Palace, maybe she will make the queen angry again." ”
This is yes, she can be said to have no foul when she doesn't go out of Feiyun Palace, but if she invites the imperial sister to leave Feique Palace, won't the imperial sister make a mistake?
Princess Changle had a headache and knocked on her skull, knocking her head with a bang.
"Yes, you go and tell your father, just say that the palace is not feeling well these days, and the mind is sad, and the imperial doctor said that it is caused by loneliness, so the palace wants to invite the imperial sister to accompany you, please ask your father to be favorable."
Anyway, the father didn't know that she and the imperial sister were punished by the queen mother, and even if he knew, with the extent that he loved her, he would definitely grant this little request.
The old god of Princess Changle sat on the brocade couch on the side of the presence, with one foot cocked and a happy expression.
Last time, she lost face in front of the imperial sister, and this time she naturally had to find her way back in front of the imperial sister.
Princess Changle did not explicitly say that she wanted to find Xue Qi, but handed the letter to Xue Jinian, with a cordial and sincere attitude, saying that these days have passed quietly, thinking about the past and being quite sorry for Admiral Xue, I sincerely invite the Admiral to come to Feiyun Palace to sit down, so that I can apologize in person.
With her previous attitude towards Xue Jinian, she believed that as soon as Xue Jinian got the letter, she would be able to smell a strong smell of conspiracy. But the princess can't ignore the invitation, think about it, and can't save her face and don't want to go in person, then his first right-hand man in front of the seat is the best candidate.
She heard that this Xue Qi was extremely reused by Xue Jinian and could be used as his right-hand man.
Just then, she cut off one of his arms!

East Plant
It's the middle of winter, and there was just a snowfall last night, and the whole of Kamijo Kyoto is covered in a blank expanse.
An attendant came in early in the morning with a letter, saying that by the order of Princess Changle, he must hand it over to Lord Xue in person.
Xue Jinian put down the pen in his hand and took the letterhead, with a few words on it, it was indeed the handwriting of Princess Changle. He smiled slightly and handed it to Xue Qi.
Xue Qi stood aside, was bowing his head to study ink for him, received the letter pushed by the overseer, although it was inexplicable, he still picked it up and looked at it, after reading it, he asked: "Overseer, Princess Changle is going to take revenge?" ”
"Not bad."
Xue Qi didn't make a sound, threw the letterhead on the table casually with a blank face, picked up the ink slip and continued the work in his hand.
The princess who grew up in the deep palace has been protected by the queen since she was a child, and she has grown up smoothly, even the calculating person is so shallow. With the wisdom of the Overseer, it must have been easy to deal with, and he had no need to worry at all.
Seeing Xue Qi's indifferent appearance, Xue Jinian was noncommittal, he picked up a paperweight, swiped it on the flattened rice paper in front of him, lifted the brush and was about to put down the pen, as if he thought of something, and paused slightly: "You might as well guess, who does she want to take revenge on?" ”
Princess Changle's letter Xue Jinian only glanced at it, and knew the "deep" meaning. It's not too deep, after all, with her brain, she can't write anything full of connotation.
Xue Qi's hand paused slightly, and he glanced up at Xue Jinian, the meaning was self-evident.
Do you still have to guess this? The letter is all named, and the one who points is you, my lord.
"Then you say, what if Ben doesn't go?"
Xue Qi still didn't stop the movements in his hands, but said in his mouth: "Princess Changle is a domineering person, and she has always held grudges, and her subordinates feel that it is a good thing that the overseer should not make an appointment." ”
"But she's a princess after all, and it's not good to push it off completely."
If Hua Qian is present, he must spray his face: You even dare to order the princess herself to be arrested and imprisoned, what's wrong with pushing her a small invitation?
Hearing this, Xue Qi put down the ink slip in his hand and said in a respectful tone: "What the overseer said is reasonable, it is better to let his subordinates go instead, firstly, to save the princess's face, and secondly, to probe her mind." ”
If it were a normal boss, it would have been true.
Unexpectedly, Xue Jinian shook his head, and said casually while putting down his pen: "Isn't this exactly what she wants." ”
Xue Qi was stunned: "What does the overseer mean by this?" ”
"When this governor enters the palace, she can't really bear me, but if you go, life and death are unknown."
Xue Qi's eyes shrank slightly: "Princess Changle dares to commit murder in the palace during the day?" ”
"Why don't you dare? You put her in prison, make her lose face, and take your life, which can not only calm the anger in your heart, but also give Bendu some deterrence! ”
Xue Qi was silent, he understood that with his status, he entered Feiyun Palace, if he really died on the spot, I am afraid that no one would seek justice for him.
He lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground: "Even if it is dangerous, his subordinates have nothing to fear." ”
Xue Jinian helped him up and said, "Since the governor dared to order the arrest that day, he naturally wouldn't be afraid. This time, the Governor made a personal visit. ”
Xue Qi was anxious: "The overseer can't, since you know her thoughts, how can you ......?"
Xue Jinian waved his hand and interrupted him: "At most, I will suffer from some flesh and skin, and I will not worry about my life." As long as there is no worry about life, what is the pain of flesh and skin? Besides......"
His eyes fell on the paper sticker in front of him, and the word "royal" was flying and dancing, and the pen was vigorous.
"Since they returned to the palace, it has been calm, and Bendu is still worried that she has learned wisely, so she swallowed this breath, and now it seems that Bendu is too worried."
"What does the Overseer mean...... Did you do it on purpose? ”
Xue Jinian smiled, his expression was gentle, but the calculation in his eyes was clear: "Some people need to push her to get twice the result with half the effort." ”
Xue Qi couldn't understand and asked, "What should the subordinates do now?" ”
"You don't need to do anything, just keep an eye on Yin Zishang, if there is any change, and return immediately."
"Yes!"
"Let's go down."
Xue Qigong withdrew from the study, looking at Xue Jinian, who was still on the case, he didn't understand his master's thoughts more and more, and took a big risk to try his best to stuff a fake princess into the palace, but he didn't see any action.
Especially between Empress Wen and the imperial concubine, he can't see through it, as for Princess Anping and Princess Changle, in his eyes, there is no good thing.
The locust in the courtyard was covered with snow overnight, falling from time to time, Xue Qi was quiet, and walked out of the moon gate......
@@@
Recently, Hua Qian has become more and more lazy, she didn't have any friends in the palace, and no one came to the door. In the first few days, those concubines in the harem occasionally sent people over to chatter, and later saw that she had no weight in front of Queen Wen at all, so they also rested their thoughts of flattering. Recently, in front of the Feique Palace, it can be said that there are many birds.
But that's good, anyway, she didn't bother to go out, so she simply closed the gate of Feique Palace, and lay on the rocking chair with a brocade quilt every day, enjoying the flowers and grass during the day, and watching the snow and the stars at night, and sleeping without the sun and moon.
In the past, she was on Wuyin Mountain, and every winter, she didn't like to go out. Every time, it was Senior Brother Hua Muchen who deceived and deceived her to coax her out.
That's right, don't look at Hua Muchen's usual cold-hearted pretense of "you stay away from me", that is facing other fellow students, but it is a different look for her. When you are happy, it is as warm as spring; When you are unhappy, yin and yang are weird.
Well, you can't say that yin and yang are weird, how can you say that feeling?
Let's explain it this way, from childhood to adulthood, this person always likes to disagree with her, she wants to go east, he must go west, she wants to beat dogs, he must hunt chickens.
Hua Qian grew up in Wuyin Mountain since she was a child, and she was earlier than Hua Muchen's entry time, so it stands to reason that she should be a senior sister. But the trick is that this person cheated and instigated the master to deceive her young and ignorant together, and she insisted on ranking her identity based on her age.
Later, when she grew up and realized this, she had already called him a senior brother for several years.
But even if this person is her senior brother, he is older than her, but his heart is much younger than her.
In short, everything is against her.
