Chapter 112: Four Branches

Situ Xuan was dressed in a red satin python robe and sat on the left hand of the old prince with a big grin, sat face to face with Ye Luzheng, and said to the old prince: "Not long ago, I heard that the prince was unwell, and this king thought that this kiss could not be welcomed, and he didn't think that the prince looked so good. ”

The old prince smiled reluctantly: "Yes, this king is not lightly ill, but fortunately, Princess Qin came to the rescue." ”

Situ Xuan drank wine and said, "Is that girl okay?" I wasn't tortured to death! ”

Ye Luzheng almost didn't squirt out a sip of wine, looked up at Situ Xuan, and saw that he still did not feel anything wrong, and secretly thought in his heart that they really had a good relationship?

Ye Luzheng raised his glass and replied: "The princess is fine now, Your Highness can rest assured." ”

Situ Yao drank a glass of wine with him and said, "It's okay, or Situ Jing will have to kill this king." ”

Ye Luzheng shook his head and smiled, this His Royal Highness the King of Jin is really a big grinning character.

Situ Xuan was not in a hurry to welcome his relatives, and when he had had enough, he ran to Mu Yunqi's yard to sit.

"Are you really here to greet you?" Mu Yunqi looked at Situ Xuan, who was leaning on her tattered table, and asked.

Situ Xuan ate the grapes and spit out a few grape seeds and said: "When the king came out, the third emperor brother told me that I was not in a hurry to go back, so I naturally had to play enough before I could take the county lord back." ”

Mu Yunqi looked at him and really wanted to knock him on the head, "Why do you listen to Brother Yu so much, but Brother Yu is right!" ”

Situ Yan threw a grape into his mouth again and said: "Who told us that the two of us were born to a concubine, and you know that I am very capable of causing trouble, and it is all thanks to the third emperor brother that I can be beaten a lot." ”

"Who beat you, Situ Jing?"

"Hmph, who else is there besides him, speaking of which, the culprit is still you, if it weren't for you, Situ Jing would look at me like that."

"Who told you to bully me when you were a child?"

"I, don't I like to tease you, you said that Situ Jing only knew how old he was to protect his daughter-in-law at that time, and he has only protected you for so many years."

Mu Yunqi chatted with Situ Xuan, and finally found the feeling of playing around in the capital, Mu Yunqi smiled happily: "Because I grew up with him in Concubine Chen's palace since childhood, it was just a later change, otherwise we would not be separated until today." ”

Situ Xuan looked at Mu Yunqi's happy appearance, and finally felt a little moved, feeling that something should be done for the two of them, it was a pity that such a pair could not be together because of their father's prejudice, and poor little thunder, whose mother was exiled just after birth.

"This time he wanted to come to greet his relatives, but the Ministry of Rites said that the prince who had been crowned a concubine could not come to greet his relatives, so he stopped, and last time he made his father angry. When the king left, his father was seriously ill and recovered, and his body was not as good as before, this king and King Rui had no heart to fight for the throne, King Ren had left, and the king of Chu had fallen, so it was no surprise that Situ Jing should be the best choice for the throne, and then it should be the time when you can keep the clouds open and see the moon. ”

Mu Yunqi shook his head with a smile and said, "You said that he would be the emperor, and when the harem beauties are three thousand, how can he think of me." ”

"Mu Yunqi, why are you so pessimistic, Situ Jing is not that kind of person, at least he will leave you a concubine, after all, you are Lei Ming's biological mother and the mother of the emperor's eldest son."

Mu Yunqi looked at Situ Xuan, he couldn't understand his feelings, and it was useless to say more.

"Then are you still welcoming this kiss?"

"Ying, why don't you welcome?"

Mu Yunqi thought for a while and asked, "Is there a way not to welcome?" Mu Yunqi told Situ Xuan about the county lord of Ji'an and Yu Bai, Situ Xuan was silent, and he was a pair of lovers who were beaten with sticks, and he didn't want to ruin people's lives, not to mention that as far as she said, even if the county lord welcomed back, there might not be any moths, so he said: "Let this king think about it." ”

Mu Yunqi saw that he could think about this matter and there was still a way to live, Situ Xuan glanced at her from the corner of his eye, he was in charge of other people's affairs before his own affairs were settled, and he really didn't know if she had a heart or no intention for Situ Jing.

In the next few days, His Royal Highness the King of Jin was like evaporating from the world, and no one could find him, so he was so anxious that he couldn't run to Mu Yunqi's courtyard to go around in circles.

"You can't turn around with me, he stayed with me for an afternoon and then disappeared, and I don't know where the others went."

Ye Luzheng glared at Mu Yunqi with gloomy eyes and asked, "What did you say to him?" ”

"Everything."

"What does His Royal Highness King Jin mean?"

"Others are okay, there will be no malicious intentions, you can calm down for a while, come, sit down and have a cup of tea, His Royal Highness King Jin brought it to me, taste it."

Yerezheng looked at her leisurely appearance, and his impetuous heart slowly settled down, and he sat down beside her and picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"It's really good tea."

After drinking tea, Ye Luzheng looked at the sky that had darkened, sighed and said, "His Royal Highness King Jin will send someone to inform me if there is news." ”

"He's not coming to me." Mu Yunqi raised his teacup and took a sip.

Jerez glanced at her and turned away.

When His Royal Highness King Jin reappeared, it was the first day of greeting, and the second day early in the morning, the hundred miles long street was full of people who were sending off, Situ Yao was still wearing the same red robe when he came, and he took the lead as if he was the groom's official, Mu Yunqi thought that this was the reason why the prince who did not let the concubine come to greet him.

Looking at the luxurious palace carriage behind it, there is a graceful woman sitting in the wrong place, everyone knows that it is the lord of Ji'an, and now she is named Concubine Ji to enter the palace.

Ye Luzheng was sent to the gate of the city with a group of officials, and the lord of Ji'an suddenly stopped the carriage, only to see her get out of the carriage with the support of the maid, kneel down and kowtow to the city gate before getting up and getting into the carriage.

When the welcoming team walked out for half a day and rested at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, Situ Xuan called the county lord of Ji'an to the side and didn't know what to say, only to see the county lord of Ji'an kneeling down and kowtowing to him.

After that, the lord of Ji'an was never seen out of the carriage, until he encountered robbers when passing through the steep Nanshan Pass, this group of robbers was very strong, the lord of Ji'an was robbed, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin was also injured and fled back to the capital.

On the other side, after welcoming the team on Phoenix Mountain, an ordinary carriage came over and stopped at a small pavilion not far from the team's rest.

A handsome man jumped out of the carriage and rushed towards the woman in red who was waiting in the pavilion, and took the woman in red into his arms.

"Ji'an, Ji'an, we can finally be together."

The county lord of Ji'an rubbed in Yu Bai's arms, and tears couldn't stop flowing, "General, I'm back, we can be together." ”

Mu Yunqi and Ye Luzheng, who got off the carriage, looked at the two people hugging each other and smiled. Yu Bai and Yelu Ji'an finally separated, came to Mu Yunqi and bowed deeply.

The county lord of Ji'an said: "Princess Niangniang, thank you for your great kindness, if you need our help in the future, please don't be polite." It's just that His Royal Highness King Jin will be fine. ”

"It's okay, at most he suffers a little bit of flesh and skin, he is used to getting into trouble, so naturally someone will protect him." Mu Yunqi said with a smile.

Yu Bai and Yelu Ji'an glanced at each other, and always felt that His Royal Highness King Jin seemed to have been trapped.

After Yu Bai and Yelu Ji'an went back, they held a simple wedding, and there were not many witnesses, and the old prince was so happy that he burst into tears when he saw that his daughter could marry his beloved as he wished.

Early the next morning, Yu Bai supported Yelu Ji'an and the two of them happily into Mu Yunqi's small courtyard.

Mu Yunqi was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he asked in surprise: "Why did this newlywed Yan'er get up so early and come to my small courtyard." ”

Yu Bai said with a smile: "Ji An said that he had something to tell the princess, so we came over early in the morning, and I don't know if I would disturb the princess." ”

Mu Yunqi smiled, "I'm afraid of disturbing me, this place is clean and likes people to come and sit often." ”

Yelu Ji'an also sat down in front of Mu Yunqi with a smile and said, "Come and ask for a cup of tea in the morning, the princess doesn't mind." ”

Qiao Lu had already taken two freshly brushed teacups at this time, poured tea for them, and the two of them got up and respectfully saluted Mu Yunqi with a cup of tea, Mu Yunqi was a little flattered at first, but then he understood, took the tea and drank it and said: "I drank the tea, thank you for everything, you don't owe me anything in the future, go live in peace." ”

At this time, Yelu Ji'an took out a brocade box from his sleeve and put it in front of Mu Yunqi and said, "Accept this, and we will owe you nothing." Brother Wang once said that the woman who can get five chrysanthemum hairpins can be sealed, no matter how much she is worth, this hairpin has no meaning to me, or even a shame, it is better to give it to the princess, I heard that the princess got this one and there are three. ”

Mu Yunqi knocked on the lid of the brocade box and didn't open it, only one of the four chrysanthemum hairpins was missing, but what was the use of getting it, what she wanted was not the queen's position, but a couple for a lifetime.

Yu Bai and Yelujian looked at her dark and uncertain expression, and they didn't know whether she was happy or unhappy, and they didn't know how to move.

Mu Yunqi suddenly withdrew his hand, looked at the two of them and said, "Xie Ji'an's gift from the county lord." ”

After Yu Bai and Yelu Ji'an left, Mu Yunqi took the brocade box in his hand and weighed it, sighed deeply, and handed it to Qiao Lu to put away.
