Chapter 299: Returning the Pearl (Part 2)
"The Law of Sighs"
Yu Xiaoyao snorted, extremely dissatisfied, it is a royal horse, just majestic and elegant, not a war horse, thin into skin and bones, where is there still a panache?
Quan Ce smiled and patted Yuyao's horse's head, "How should I call you, General Ashina or Her Royal Highness Princess Yunxi?" ”
Princess Yunxi pursed her lips, wrinkled her nose, and said unconvinced, "As you like, the Central Plains people are cunning, and you are the most cunning one among the Central Plains people, and it's not uncommon to guess it."
"Hehe, Her Royal Highness the princess praised falsely" Quan Ce couldn't cry or laugh, "Quan Ce is not an eventful person, he will be tight-lipped like **, His Royal Highness can rest assured"
Princess Yunxi looked around, raised her chin and glared at him, her face was not very good-looking, "Aren't you a state of etiquette?" Just let me talk on the street? Are you still on a horse? ”
Quan Ce thought it was just a greeting and a hello, but he was picked on, so he turned over and dismounted at the moment, and apologized, "It's rude, Your Highness, please"
At that moment, Princess Yunxi went to the right side of the garden of Princess Yiyang's mansion, her own mansion, and sat down in the flower hall of Qinxin Courtyard, and the maid served fragrant tea, Princess Yunxi looked left and right, and saw that the decoration was elegant and tranquil, and there was no luxury of gold and jade, so she thought about it slightly, and sighed softly, "You, the emperor's capable grandson, must be taboo everywhere, and life must be difficult."
It is true that he was jealous, but not on the money and silk, in all fairness, the martial queen was the most generous to him in terms of money and goods, and it was often tens of millions of rewards, but they were friends with each other, and they were foreign nobles, so it was inconvenient to talk about them in a shallow manner, and when it came to sensitive matters, Quan Ce accompanied a smile, and turned to say, "Your Highness wait a while, the nobles have descended, and I invite my family to accompany the guests."
Princess Yunxi was very dissatisfied with his evasive attitude, humming and drinking tea with a teacup, she didn't want to pay attention to him, but when she heard this, she couldn't hold it back, and asked in surprise, "You are already married?" ”
"Your Highness misunderstood, I didn't get married, and there was only one concubine in the family who presided over the middle feed, and I was in charge of the dealings in the house" Quan Ce shook his head, talking about marriage with her, which was quite awkward, and changed the topic again, "What does Your Highness think of this tea?" ”
"Hmph, concubines are just slaves, how can they be worthy of entertaining guests with things like cattle and horses? Don't call her" Princess Yunxi rolled her eyelids, extremely disdainful, took a few sips of the teapot, and said honestly and unceremoniously, "I have drunk this tea in the grassland, it is very expensive, it has a price, I heard that which prince of Da Zhou is operating behind the scenes, what is your relationship with him, you may help me order some?" ”
"Nature is okay" Quan Zhi responded, roasted tea can open up sales, Wu Youji has made great contributions, removed the distractions of officialdom and marriage, and even handed over his two sons to Quan Ce to discipline, he focuses on business, and he can be regarded as a fish in water.
Princess Yunxi degraded Fleur, although it is the common situation in this world, Quan Ce is not happy, you must know that Princess Taiping values the most bloodline status, and has never regarded Quan Ce's only concubine as a slave, at that time Quan Ce lived in Princess Taiping's mansion, and did not accept maids, Princess Taiping was once worried that Quan Ce had a hidden illness, and privately asked Fleur a lot of boudoir privacy, although Fleur was ashamed, but since then the relationship between the two has been much closer, Princess Taiping is not happy to see Quan Ce frugal and self-serving, and has interfered with Quan Ce's food and clothing through Fleur.
"Your Highness intends to come, but you have orders? Please also say bluntly, "Quan Ce sat down under Princess Yunxi, and his smile faded a lot."
Princess Yunxi didn't notice the slight change, and her cheeks flushed slightly, "Now that your injuries are healed, why don't you go to the royal family's children's exam?" ”
Quan Ce frowned, because he and Wu Yanji were assassinated, Zongzheng Temple Qing Zhao Xiang's side of the examination procedure was delayed for a long time, today Empress Wu and Mo Si reached an agreement, the action suddenly accelerated, he from the White Horse Temple and the Bon Great Wizard set almost back, he received a post from Zongzheng Temple, he and Wu Yanji are still at the top of the list, with Zhao Xiang's style of acting, it is impossible to assert himself, it seems that Empress Wu's mind has almost been decided, to let him marry the Turkic princess in front of him as the main room.
"Xu is going to participate, the Great Zhou royal family is full of talents, His Royal Highness will definitely be able to find Ruyi Langjun" Quan Ce said with a wry smile, he will still struggle, but he doesn't know the crux of the Empress Wu's sudden marriage with the Turks, and the struggle is just an itch in his boots.
"Are you boasting? The world says that you are the first in the royal family" Princess Yunxi muttered, her face rippling with a layer of light, "You are very good at martial arts, do you like hunting?" I haven't hunted in the Central Plains yet, can you take me there? I heard that the nobles of the Central Plains like to play on horseback, will you? Teach me, okay? ”
Quan Ce looked at the corners of his clothes that were pulled by her, he was a little helpless, maybe this is what a young man should look like, full of vitality, he can do it if he wants, but it is a pity that he spent half his life in his previous life, busy with his stomach, and in this life, he has repeatedly rolled around at the moment of life and death, and has taken on the rise and fall of a large family early, and the leisure of young people seems to have never been.
This noisy Princess Yunxi can't be said to be a better match for the high-flying and domineering Huaiyang King Wu Yanxiu.
Thinking about this, Quan Ce's heart moved slightly, maybe he could join forces with Wu Chengsi and push the pearl in front of him out, just after being degraded, Wu Chengsi must be eager to have the opportunity to tremble and be majestic, but he can't act rashly, and scratch the itch through his boots, test the reaction of the Empress Wu, and say anything else, if the Empress Wu has no room for accommodation, everything will be suspended.
"What are you doing?" Princess Yunxi looked up at him, a little aggrieved, "But you don't have time?" It's okay, I'll go back to the hall, and I'll come back to you when you have some free time."
Quan Ce couldn't bear it, and he also had a sense of guilt, and he said a thousand words to his lips, and only said one sentence, "I send it to His Highness"
Princess Yunxi was disappointed, kicked the delicate deerskin boots, and was no longer happy, riding on a horse in front of the mansion, looking at the vermilion lacquer gate standing with her hands in her hands, warm and moist, but difficult to get close to the power of the policy, her eyes were slightly red, she was favored since she was a child, and she showed favor to others for the first time, but she was treated coldly, and her heart was sour, this magical taste made her unforgettable and sad, and a whip was whipped on the horse's buttocks, like the wind and gone.
Taichu Palace, Yaoguang Palace, and Yeting, although they have been shown by waiting for the edict and have improved a lot of grades, Shangguan Wan'er's residence has still not changed, but there is a shock from last time, and the palace maids and eunuchs around her are all newly selected.
"The fluttering tent turns in fright, the stalk breaks the soul, and there will be a time, and it is a dream that should wake up for a long time"
Shangguan Wan'er played with the ruby feathers in her hand, the words brought by Wu Chongxing sounded cold and decisive, but they contradicted themselves, with the temperament of the power policy, even if there was really a decisive intention, they could accept the feathers that were returned, silence is better than sound, why bother with these two moves?
Piao Peng wakes up from a dream, no longer does Piao Peng, and doesn't want fate to be controlled by Biao, so do you want to be a rock that is as stable as Mount Tai with the eight winds, Lang Jun?
Shangguan Wan'er's eyes suddenly lit up frighteningly, she remembered that in Lutang Mountain, Jiannan Province, there was a boy named Zhu Ping'an, the blood descendant of Li Zhen, the king of Yue, presumably, at this moment, his protection and education, Lang Jun should pay more attention.
"Lang Jun, Wan'er will help you, let's pierce this long night together" Shangguan Wan'er cherished and put the feathers close to her body, and kept thinking about it in her mind, His Majesty ordered Lang Jun to appear in front of people several times, I am afraid that he will not be able to take on the position of the family order of Princess Taiping's Mansion for a few days, how to help Lang Jun get a decent and powerful errand?
"Not good" Shangguan Wan'er exclaimed violently, Empress Wu ensured that Lang Jun I was loyal to her by marrying the Turks, but Lang Jun didn't know that if there was a plan and action, it would be bad if he disobeyed Empress Wu's wishes.
Shangguan Wan'er turned around a few times in place, and took a sub-scroll on the table at random, which she usually imitated Quan Ce's realistic painting style, "Come on, I have something to hand over to Chongxing Langjun, follow me"
She hurriedly went out, but a rare guest arrived outside the door, it was Xie Yaohuan.
"Sister Yaohuan, but it's unfortunate, I have some urgent things to do, it's rude" Shangguan Wan'er couldn't think about why Xie Yaohuan, who had always been cold, took the initiative to come to the door, hurriedly confessed, and left quickly.
Xie Yao stood in place, the sorrow on her face was even worse, Li Li and the others had cut off contact with her, and it was only a public-to-public attitude when they encountered it, and they didn't feel anything at first, after all, she is now the commander of the Meihua Internal Guard, if she knows the news of Quan Ce, she will only be embarrassed, and after a long time, she began to panic in her heart, and when she came to see Shangguan Wan'er today, she wanted to knock on the side, but it was unfortunate.
It seems that everyone is busy, they all have goals, and they all have heads, but she is the only one, is she the walking dead?
