Volume 1: The Palace's Mansion Chapter 4: The King of Zhenbei
Shen Xie really wanted to leave Lu Ziyue for the night, but he had too many things to deal with recently, and he didn't have so much time to spend on Lu Ziyue, so he could only say apologetically: "Ah Yue, I will definitely be by your side every day after this period of time, can you be considerate of me?" ”
"Okay." Lu Ziyue said abruptly, can she not speak well? Now that she has reached such a critical juncture, can she still rebel against this man's will with her own temperament?
Closing his eyes and being hugged tightly by him, Shen Xie let her go after a long time: "I know that you are reluctant to give up Ah Pei, so I asked someone to take her to Dali Temple just now, Ah Yue, I will send a new person to serve you tomorrow, and I will let Xiao Qi send you back after a while, she will protect your safety." ”
Every word Shen Xie said seemed to be thinking about her, but these considerations were not what Lu Ziyue wanted, but even so, in order to prevent the man in front of her from revealing his true emotions, she could only bite all these pains and swallow them.
Shen Xie was a little surprised to see her so submissive, the two of them have been together for five years, and they love this little wife very much, and they have also figured out her temperament, this woman is definitely not as gentle as she shows on the surface, and when she encounters things that make her unbearable, her true nature will always be exposed.
But this time I didn't make a big fuss with myself, and things must not be so simple.
Stroking her soft hair: "I still have to deal with official business, let Xiao Qi send you away now." ”
Walking out of Shen Yuan, there was no longer Ah Pei's figure outside, replaced by many guards wearing heavy armor.
Lu Ziyue turned his head to look at Xiao Qi with a smiling face: "Did he order it?" ”
"It is indeed ordered by the prince, now the situation inside and outside the court is complicated, your identity will attract many people's discord, and the prince is also worried about causing trouble to the princess, so he specially sent a lot of guards to guard, and also asked the princess not to go out casually in recent days, this is all the kindness of the prince."
After Xiao Qi finished saying the previous words, she added a sentence in the back, she looked at the woman in front of her, although she had a smiling face, her heart was also full of pity for her.
What the prince did this time was endless, if it were for her to experience these things, I am afraid that she would have had a quarrel with that noble man a long time ago.
But the princess in front of her is still so calm, it can be seen that although she is sad in her heart, she still wants her own idea, and maybe she will contact someone who shouldn't be contacted when she goes back.
Her mercy is mercy, but she must not be able to affect the prince's affairs.
Lu Ziyue looked at Xiao Qi with a sneer: "You said, if it were you, would you thank your prince for worrying about everything?" ”
"This is not something that I can evaluate as a slave maid, the princess who is more deeply exposed should go back to the room and rest as soon as possible."
Xiao Qi was afraid that if he talked too much, he would reveal things that should not be revealed, and he didn't dare to continue to talk to Lu Ziyue.
However, she flinched, but Lu Ziyue couldn't keep her mouth shut.
Xiao Qi is different from Ah Pei, now, she and Ah Pei are always subject to multiple scrutiny by others because of their identities in this country, and it is even more difficult to get some information they want than to ascend to the sky.
But Xiao Qi has been serving by Shen Xie's side since she was a child, and in the eyes of all Shen people, the force she represents behind her is Shen Xie, so she must know a lot of news.
couldn't get what he wanted from Shen Xie's side, and Lu Ziyue could only go to others for help.
Anyway, before the dust settled, Shen Xie was just the regent of this country.
He can't completely cover the sky with one hand.
Lu Ziyue already has a candidate in his heart.
"Xiao Qi, the prince will become the new emperor in a few days, according to the old calendar, the generals in the army will return to the dynasty to report on their work, will the king of Zhenbei come back?"
Lu Ziyue already has a new goal, Shen Xie holds the power, and the king of Zhenbei, Shangguan Zimo, holds the military power, if he can ask for his help this time, then the father and the queen mother can at least save their lives.
Although Shangguan Zimo was an officer, he never broke through the capital of another country, he was a descendant of the royal family of the Li State, and when he was young, he saw the enemy army break through the capital with his own eyes, and saw his parents die in front of his eyes.
In order to take revenge on him, he went to the battlefield as a young man and became a good hand on the battlefield, and was later appreciated by the first emperor of Shen State and became the victorious general of Shen State, but he had a rule on the battlefield, that is, he never broke through the capital of other countries, and when the soldiers came to the city, the person in command would definitely not be him.
So this time, when the country of Dayue was broken, Shen Xie sent the generals under his command, but he did not find Guan Zimo.
Xiao Qi didn't know why Lu Ziyue suddenly asked Shangguan Zimo, but she could guess some, but she didn't believe that Lu Ziyue would really go against Shen Xie.
She said tentatively: "The king of Zhenbei will come back, counting the days will be the day after tomorrow, but why did the princess suddenly ask about the king of Zhenbei, why has the house never had anything to do with the king of Zhenbei, and even the prince has not a good relationship with the king of Zhenbei." ”
Lu Ziyue could see that Xiao Qi was doubting her intentions, but it didn't matter, she was already uneasy.
"The prince said, I will be his queen, the mother of the world, in this case, what is wrong with me caring about the king of Zhenbei now? I always have to think about the prince. ”
Lu Ziyue's gaze was very open, and there was no selfishness in his eyes.
Xiao Qi looked at her appearance and felt that she was too careful, she had been by the prince's side for so long, and she was also very familiar with this princess, knowing that she had barely met the king of Zhenbei, she must really be thinking about the prince.
He also said very sincerely: "If the princess really thinks about the prince, then stay at home well, and the Ministry of Rites will come to cut clothes for the prince and the princess the day after tomorrow." ”
Xiao Qi carried the lamp and sent Lu Ziyue to the door of the room, she didn't go in, and said with a blessing: "The slave maid has to go back to serve the prince, the princess should go to bed early." ”
Lu Ziyue nodded, her face was already bad, but now when she stood in the night wind, she looked even more pitiful.
Xiao Qi shook his head and turned to leave, and those guards in heavy armor surrounded Lu Ziyue's courtyard layer by layer.
She returned to the room, closed the door tightly, Ah Pei was locked up in Dali Temple, she had a chance to go out, although it was to be investigated, but on the way she had countless opportunities to pass on the news, if she guessed correctly, there should be people from Dayue waiting for her in the courtyard now.
They were Lu Ziyue's last hope, and the only way for her to contact Shangguan Zimo.
Xiao Qi has a sentence that is actually wrong, she and Shangguan Zimo are not strangers.
