After calming down, Qin Mubai pondered carefully, should he take the initiative to explain this farce with Princess Gaoyang to Li Shimin?

Still don't.

The princess committed suicide by jumping into the river to frame her subordinates...... There's enough of a ridiculous thing to do. A little thing happened in the harem, Li Shimin must have known the news as soon as possible. If he took the initiative to talk to him, it would be tantamount to counting his ugliness in front of the emperor.

Just as if nothing happened, the big things turned into small things, and the small things became small.

After figuring out this, Qin Mubai went to Danfeng Gate again, found the team of soldiers just now, and solemnly warned them that they could not spread the word about today's events, otherwise it might be a matter of losing their heads. These sergeants were all on errand in the palace, and all of them knew how important this kind of thing was, so they all agreed cautiously.

In fact, paper can't contain fire, and this kind of thing often spreads everywhere in an instant. The reason why Qin Mubai did this was nothing more than to make an appearance, if the emperor got angry and asked about his guilt in the future, he would have an excuse to shirk it first.

That should be foolproof.

In the early morning of the next day, Qin Mubai went to Daming Palace as usual to pick up Li Shimin's early dynasty. Li Shimin was no different from usual, and he didn't say a word about Princess Gaoyang yesterday. Qin Mubai secretly rejoiced in his heart: It seems that my decision is right, don't take the initiative to break this kind of thing, so as not to embarrass the emperor.

Everything was as usual, Qin Mubai came to Penglai Palace, the father of charge was in charge of the two little princes, Li Zhi and Li Mingda, telling stories and teaching pipa, and the morning passed quickly.

At noon, Qin Mubai went to the pavilion in the imperial garden to take a nap as usual, and a palace maid came over.

Qin Mubai recognized that the palace maid was one of the four people who had been taken down by him and locked up in the prison for a few days, Princess Gaoyang's personal maid.

"General Qin." The palace maid walked up to Qin Mubai and saluted respectfully, looking a little timid, she didn't dare to look at him squarely.

"What is the matter with Lady E?" This is a more polite title for Gong E's maidservant, Qin Mubai asked with a smile.

"Nothing...... It just happened to pass by here and say hello to Qin Mubai. The palace maid replied quietly with a red face.

"Oh?" Qin Mubai smiled in his heart, looking at your small appearance, lying is not professional enough. Who would be okay at this noon, when it was hot, passing by the Imperial Garden. It must have been sent by Princess Gaoyang.

"Is Her Royal Highness the Princess alright?" Qin Mubai was very knowledgeable and asked.

"Hmm...... It's good. It's just ...... "the palace maid swallowed."

"Just what?" Qin Mubai asked.

"It's just that yesterday I was frightened, and I fell into the water and suffered from the cold, and I fell ill for a while." The palace maid looked at Qin Mubai with a sad face, as if asking for help.

'Look at what I'm doing, I don't know how to do medicine.' Qin Mubai groaned to himself, and after thinking about it, did he dare to love Princess Gaoyang and want me to go see her now...... Okay, it's also a good way to go. Otherwise, this little girl's heart will not be comfortable. How to say that she is also the emperor's beloved daughter, and her current illness has more or less something to do with me. We can't really let her hate me, it's okay to go back to the sick and ease the relationship.

"Where is Her Royal Highness now? Is it convenient to stay and visit? Qin Mubai said.

The palace maid really showed joy: "It's in the Xianju Palace, living with Concubine De!" If the general goes, the servant can lead the way. ”

"Let's go, then!" Qin Mubai immediately got up and walked forward with the palace maid.

Concubine De Niangniang, that is, Concubine Yin De, one of Li Shimin's four concubines, and the mother of Princess Gaoyang - is a character with a great background.

The Yin family, speaking of which, is the feud of the Li Shimin family!

Concubine Yinde's father, Yin Shishi, was General Zuo Yiwei under Emperor Yang of Sui. When Li Yuan raised troops against the Sui, Yin Shishi killed Li Shimin's younger brother Li Zhiyun, dug up the ancestral grave of the Li family, and demolished the Li family's temple. Later, Li Shimin broke through Chang'an City, and the Yin Shishi was beheaded to show the public, and the Yin family entered the Qin Palace's mansion as a slave.

I don't know if Li Shimin was firmly attracted by this peerless Concubine Yinde, or if he intended to use the daughter of this enemy to be ravaged under the account to vent "class hatred", in short, later, Concubine Yinde became one of Li Shimin's favorite women, and after Zhenguan, she was also canonized as one of the four concubines. And Concubine Yin De also gave Li Shiren a prince Li You, and his most favored baby daughter Princess Gaoyang.

The relationship between this family is really complicated enough, and the emotions are tortuous enough.

The Xianju Hall is near the lake of Taiye Pond, the river breeze is light, the catkins are fluttering, the scenery is pleasant, and it is very comfortable.

Qin Mubai was wearing that unicorn robe, and he could travel anywhere in the harem unimpeded. But this is the first time he has come back here, and he is a little funny in his heart - am I using my power for personal gain into the flowers?

Entering the Xianju Palace, there was only one palace maid and eunuch in the palace, and there was no man. After walking in the corridor for a while, the palace maid took Qin Mubai and stopped outside the palace: "General, Concubine De Niangniang and Her Royal Highness the Princess are all in the palace." ”

"You go in and report."

The palace maid answered the promise, pushed open the door and went in first. After a while, she went out and invited Qin Mubai in.

Qin Mubai straightened his clothes a little and walked in, his eyes and nose did not squint, and he saluted the sleeping palace with a tent: "Minister, Qin Mubai, meet Concubine De Niangniang Chitose, meet Princess Chitose." ”

"No courtesy." A woman's light and steady voice came from the tent, and she said slowly, "Are you General Qin Mubai Qin?" Sure enough, he is a hero and a young man, and his demeanor is extraordinary. This palace has heard of your name several times, and today I finally got to see your true face. ”

"The mother praised it falsely." Qin Mubai replied, he really wanted to look up and see what kind of dignity Concubine De looked like behind the tent, which could make Li Shimin forget the feud and accept him as a concubine.

"Mother, is that guy here? Tell someone to knock him down and beat him fifty times, scoundrel! Princess Gaoyang's voice came from inside, although it was a little weak, but it was still fierce and fierce.

"Ling'er must not be rude." Concubine Yin De gently reprimanded with pity, and said to Qin Mubai, "General Qin, Gao Yang has been spoiled since he was a child, and he likes to be petty. If there is any offense, this palace is here to compensate you on her behalf. ”

"Mother! …… Nope! I don't do it! Princess Gaoyang was coquettish.

Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing: "Concubine De Niangniang, isn't this going to torment Wei Chen?" It was Weichen's inappropriate words and deeds, and he offended Her Royal Highness the princess everywhere, and he came here to ask for guilt today. ”

"Ling'er, did you hear it, how General Qin knows the general situation, and he is humble and open." Concubine Yin De said softly, "As a princess, how can you be so narrow-minded? Quick, pay the general a no. ”

"No need, Concubine De." Qin Mubai said, "When Weichen heard that the princess was sick, one came to ask for sin, and the other came to visit. Concubine De Niangniang does not have to blame Her Royal Highness the princess, lest she be depressed in her heart, which is not conducive to recuperation. ”

"He's really a good man who can pity people......" Concubine Yin De sighed inadvertently, and there was no resentment and admiration in her tone.

"Mother, you still praise this villain!" Princess Gao Yang quit and hummed while pulling Concubine Yinde's arm.

"You kid, you have a hard mouth. When he didn't come, weren't you a big chatter? Say that you just want to learn the pipa from others and play it to your father and mother. Now they are coming, and you are clamoring to punish them. Isn't this the way to treat guests and teachers? Concubine Yin De said with a smile, "General Qin, Gao Yang has always been so hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, you don't have to care. Since you're here, please sit down. If you don't mind, can you play a song to open the eyes of Hongu? ”

"Concubine De has an order, and Weichen should obey it." Qin Mubai sat down on the seat carried by the palace maid, picked up the pipa, and said, "The princess is sick, when you listen to some gentle and soft tunes, Weichen will play the song "Mountains and Flowing Water"!" ”

"Very good. This song has also been played by court musicians, and I don't know what it means for a generation of grandmaster Qin Mubai to play it. Hongu listened attentively. ”

Qin Mubai played it. "Mountains and Flowing Water" is an ancient song, and people in the Tang Dynasty were also familiar with it. Although there are many versions that have been circulated over the years, the mood is not much different, and it is a relatively soft and soothing song.

After the song was played, Concubine Yin De did not rush to speak, but walked out from behind the curtain, smiled at Qin Mu Bai Wan'er and whispered, "Gao Yang fell asleep listening to the general's tune. This kid hasn't slept since he came back last night, but he's anxious about the palace. ”

Qin Mubai glanced at Concubine Yin De inadvertently, and suddenly involuntarily took a deep breath.

If there really is a woman in this world who "captivates the country and the city", Concubine Yin De is definitely a representative figure!

Whether it is facial features, body style, dress, or temperament, this woman over thirty years old is definitely a rare peerless beauty.

It can be imagined how complicated Li Shimin's feelings were when he found this woman when he found the enemy's family - if he didn't kill, he couldn't say it! The blood of the two families is bitterly feuding; Kill ...... It is difficult for any man to harden his heart and raise a butcher's knife in the face of such a woman!

Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass. In the face of a stunning alluring woman like Concubine Yinde, Li Shimin's desire overcame reason, not only did not kill her, but also collected her, and finally made her one of the four concubines. Perhaps, Princess Gaoyang's appearance is relatively similar to Concubine Yinde, which has also become one of the reasons why Li Shimin loves her!

This woman is simply suffocatingly beautiful, elegant and dignified with every gesture.

There is no doubt that Concubine Yin De is the most "amazing" mature woman Qin Mubai has seen since he came to Datang. Wu Meiniang's natural stunner is amazing enough, but she is still young after all, and she does not have the mature and charming femininity of Concubine Yinde; Princess Gaoyang is also a typical beauty, but her personality is too tricky and stubborn, and the eldest lady is full of shelves, not the type that Qin Mubai likes at all.

"If I had passed through twenty years earlier, I would have taken Concubine Yin De first! ......" Qin Mubai could only mutter in his heart.

"General Qin, why are you silent?" Concubine Yin De smiled lightly and asked in a seductive whisper.

"Wei Chen saw that the princess was already asleep, so he didn't dare to make a noise to disturb him." Qin Mubai put down the pipa and got up to salute, "Since the princess has fallen asleep, Weichen please retire." ”

"It's good to go, don't send it." Concubine Yin De smiled lightly and said slightly.

"As an imperial concubine, she is also so humble and low-key, why didn't Princess Gao Yang learn one ten-thousandth of her mother?" Qin Mubai sighed secretly and left the Immortal Residence Palace.
