Chapter 90: A Late Night Visit
"Miss, who is this?"
Seeing that the man was bent on the snack, Shuang'er cautiously walked to Li Le's side and asked softly for the sake of safety.
Hearing this, Li Le also held his forehead for a while.
"This is Princess Wenyuan."
Such a reply made Shuang'er startled, and subconsciously raised her eyes to look over, a clean and white face under the black hood.
Isn't this Princess Wenyuan!
"Slave maid to meet Her Royal Highness Princess."
Hurriedly bowed and bowed, looking flustered.
Just now, she also regarded Princess Wenyuan as a person of unknown origin, which was really disrespectful, and if she was to blame her at this time, she would have nothing to say.
"Okay, okay, kneel around all day long, don't be tired and panic, get up."
Seeing Shuang'er salute, Princess Wenyuan's face was full of impatience, where is these red tape more important than the snacks in front of her, she sneaked out, but she hid in the box and didn't eat for a day, how can she do it if she doesn't hurry up and replenish the inventory now.
Seeing this, the two looked at Li Le for instructions, and the latter also motioned for them to get up, but asked them to prepare some more food and tea.
Looking at this food, it is not enough to think of this small snack.
Sure enough, all the food that came up after that was wiped out by Princess Wenyuan, looking at the arrogant person in front of him who wiped his mouth with his sleeve at this time, Li Le and Shuang'er couldn't help but feel that this Princess Wenyuan seemed to be a little bit of a big contrast with the influence.
"The princess has come tonight, but what's the matter?"
After serving Princess Wenyuan to her heart's content, Li Le cut to the chase and asked her about the purpose of coming here tonight.
As soon as the words fell, I saw his expression that he had almost forgotten, and then got up and moved his muscles.
"I'll talk about the purpose later, but now I'll go through two moves with me, and I see that your sword dance at the palace banquet is good, but I don't know if it's a show."
After finishing speaking, his expression was grim, and he took out a soft whip from his waist and hit Li Le.
Seeing this, Shuang'er hurriedly stepped forward to block, but was dragged back by Li Le as soon as he took a step.
"The princess wants to compete with Li Le, but this room is small, so it's better for us to go out and fight."
The side of the body dodged the whip wind, and Li Le was also aroused, so he used his internal force and took the lead in moving out of the house.
She didn't have much silver taels on her now, and if the furnishings in this room were damaged, she didn't know how much blood she could get.
"Good!"
Hearing Li Le's battle, Princess Wenyuan's expression was instantly excited, she raised her hand to collect the whip, and stepped into the courtyard on tiptoe.
As soon as he stood still, he saw that a cold light was coming, and he subconsciously dodged it, and when he looked at it, it was actually the long sword that appeared in Li Le's hand at some point.
"Sneak attack!"
Princess Wenyuan screamed, and her little face suddenly covered with a trace of anger.
What is the difference between the sneak attack in the competition and those market hooligans?
"Your Royal Highness Princess, not every competition starts when both sides are ready, if it is placed in actual combat, winning the first move is the first."
"Nonsense."
Li Le responded with a smile, although Princess Wenyuan still scolded angrily, but her posture was a little more serious.
The atmosphere was tense for a while, and after a while, the two of them rushed out of place at the same time, exchanging several moves in the air, and after landing, they did not stop at all, and turned around and attacked each other.
The sound of whips and long swords colliding echoed in the courtyard, and Li Le's offensive did not slow down for a long time, but Princess Wenyuan was gradually overwhelmed.
"Concession."
The tip of the sword stayed less than a fraction of Princess Wenyuan's neck, and the slightest mistake would pierce her skin.
In such a situation, Princess Wenyuan knew that she had no chance of winning, so she had to raise her hand and surrender.
"That's it, it seems that you really have some strength, then I can barely admit that you are my sister-in-law."
Seeing Li Le neatly retract the long sword, Princess Wenyuan's expression did not fluctuate for a moment, as if winning her just now was just an ordinary thing, and her heart was also a little relieved.
But this made Li Le stunned.
Sister-in-law? What the heck? She doesn't remember which prince she has anything to do with, even Chu Jing has been estranged a lot recently.
"Sister-in-law, when will you and Brother Changjin go to your father to give you a marriage, you see that Brother Changjin is not too young, you still have to hurry, or you can make a marriage contract first, lest Brother Changjin turn his face and deny people."
As if she didn't see Li Le, who was already messy in the wind, Princess Wenyuan continued to speak with great interest.
Hearing this, Shuang'er was not surprised, she was just a subordinate of the Marquis Mansion of Zhenguo, so naturally she would not understand the grievances and grievances between those mansions, but that these days, the little marquis of the Mu family treated her own young lady really well, if no one mentions it, I am afraid that she will forget that there is a family feud between the two.
Now that Princess Wenyuan mentioned it, it was also what they wanted to ask.
And listening to Princess Wenyuan call Mu Changjin so, Li Le suddenly remembered that he had heard someone say in his previous life that the biological mother of this royal princess Wenyuan was the favored Concubine Yue, but it was a pity that she was jealous and famous, and she gave birth to Princess Wenyuan and died in the world, this Mrs. Mu family was the sister of Concubine Yue, and the two had a close relationship, so they took the initiative to take care of Princess Wenyuan, and Mu Changjin, as a cousin, was naturally very familiar with her.
However, she didn't pay attention to this kind of gossip in her previous life, and she didn't react to it today.
"Princess, it's not early, let Shuang'er clean up the house for you, rest first, and talk about it tomorrow."
Although he figured out the reason, but being made such a fuss by Princess Wenyuan, Li Le seemed to be calm, but the roots of his ears were slightly red, Xu was not aware of it, so he was busy ending the topic.
"What kind of princess is it, it's not that I don't have a name, call me Chu Yuesheng, or call me directly by my milk name Sheng'er, my father and emperor are all called like this, you are my sister-in-law, so you still need to see the outside like this."
Princess Wenyuan didn't want to let go of Li Le, and took her hand to talk until dawn, but in the end she was persuaded to go back to the house to rest.
"I didn't expect the princess to be a lover of personality, and the young lady will have someone to talk to in the future."
Shuang'er served Li Le to go back to the house to rest, recalling Chu Yuesheng's various performances, and couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, Li Le also had a slight hook at the corners of his lips.
Although it was somewhat unexpected, it didn't seem to feel bad.
However, before he could relax a little, Li Le's expression changed slightly, and he immediately covered up the past.
"I don't have anything to serve here, so you should go and rest early."
"Yes, Miss will rest early, too."
Withdrawing from Shuang'er, Li Le's eyes showed a trace of helplessness.
"There are a lot of guests tonight, and the hospitality is not good, please forgive me."
said this to the air, and as soon as the words fell, Mu Changjin's figure fell into the house.
"The little marquis has been here a long time ago, and he seems to feel good after watching a martial arts show?"
At this time, facing Mu Changjin, he has lost his earlier restraints, and he can make a little joke.
"After all, it's rare to see, and I can't bother."
Slightly hooked the corners of his lips, found a stool and sat down, a pair of bright eyes like stars, closely following Li Le, unwilling to leave the slightest.
"Then the little marquis came here tonight, but to protect the princess's safety?"
It's very comfortable to talk to smart people, and both of them know what the other person thinks, so they don't beat around the bush.
"Nature." Mu Changjin hooked the corners of his lips slightly, picked up the tea set on the table without any surprise, and poured a cup of tea to himself, "Yuesheng has always been playful, especially when you meet someone as interesting as you, you will inevitably sneak out of the palace tonight." ”
"The little marquis doesn't know much about the princess."
Hearing this, Li Le's heart was a little strange, but he couldn't find the mistake in his words, so he had to respond to the last sentence like this.
But it makes people hear a little sour.
"This is true, but why is it so sour, isn't it that someone has turned the vinegar altar in his heart?"
Hearing such words from Li Le's mouth, Mu Changjin had a little playfulness in his heart, and he became teased.
As soon as the words fell, I saw Li Le's cheeks slightly red, as if he was a little annoyed and angry.
"If the little marquis comes late at night and just says these frivolous words, then please leave as soon as possible, I will prepare to rest."
Although she has gone through two lives, she is still not good at dealing with such teasing.
It's just that now she can't tell whether she is not good at coping with it, or because the person in front of her is Mu Changjin.
"That's it, it seems that the beauty doesn't want to pay attention to me today, so I'll talk about it another day."
The interest in Li Le in his eyes did not decrease in the slightest, but when he saw that the expression of the person in front of him was already so embarrassed, he stopped joking, got up and stretched, his eyebrows and eyes were bent into a good-looking arc, and he said.
"Little Hou Ye will not send it if he walks slowly."
As if he had solved a big problem in his heart, Li Le hurriedly pushed Mu Changjin out of the door, and immediately closed the doors and windows, trying to calm his restless heart.
What's going on?
These abnormal behaviors of his own made Li Le suspicious, but he didn't understand it after thinking about it, and finally put it aside for the time being.
In the future, it would be better to have less contact with Mu Changjin.
……
Because of the long night talk the night before, Li Le couldn't get up the next day.
Seeing this, Liuyun did not wake him up.
But early in the morning, Mu Changjin secretly took the princess back to the palace.
It's just that he wanted to leave after the princess was settled, but the emperor suddenly summoned him.
Although he was puzzled, he still followed the little eunuch to the palace early in the morning.
"See the Emperor. I don't know what happened to the emperor's summoning ministers? ”
When I came to the imperial study, King Jing was also there, and I secretly thought that there was something important, so I performed the national salute in a proper manner, and then asked the emperor.
"It's really hard to get Aiqing to come early in the morning, but there is something that needs to be done by you first."
Emperor Chu's expression was serious, not angry and arrogant, and it was impossible for people to guess his inner thoughts.
Then I heard the emperor say that today's event was that there was an assassin in the palace.
The assassin had attempted to assassinate Emperor Chu the night before, and had almost succeeded, but fortunately, in the end, Wang Zhou's father-in-law protected Emperor Chu so that he would not be injured.
Wang Zhou's father-in-law also hung a color on his arm because of this, so when Mu Changjin saw him now, his arm was still hanging on his neck with a bandage, and it looked like the injury was not light.
The Assassin had fled the previous night, and the Guards had spent the night searching the palace without being able to catch any trace of the Assassin.
