Chapter 22: The Undercurrent Surges

The Imperial Palace of the Wild Goose Kingdom. Yan Xingluo dormitory.

"Fourth Emperor Sister." Yan Li stood in front of Yan Xingluo, looking at her incredulous gaze, but she didn't feel the slightest feeling in her heart. Frankly speaking, since she overheard the conversation between Yan Xingluo and the queen that night, she has not apologized much to Yan Xingluo.

"Father promised you? Father promised you! Yan Xingluo suddenly spoke sharply, no longer as gentle and virtuous as usual, "Father went to propose marriage for you without telling me anything!" I've been waiting for him for two whole years, and now you're going to snatch my brother Nanxuan?! ”

"Sister Huang!" Yan Li stepped forward and grabbed Yan Xingluo's hand tightly, her voice was cold, "You don't love Xia Nanxuan, do you!" ”

"You talk nonsense!" Yan Xingluo almost reflexively shook off Yan Li's hand and denied it, but looking at Yan Li's determined expression, she suddenly realized something, she raised her eyes and stared at Yan Li's eyes, and said word by word, "What did you hear?" ”

Yan Li's expression didn't seem to guess at all, she must have heard something to be like this! Yan Xingluo's heart beat like a drum in an instant.

"What the imperial sister wants is only power, Xia Nanxuan is difficult to become a prince without the help of his mother, so he is not a good match for you. In this way, the royal sister should actually thank me. Yan Li smiled coolly, she was not as polite to Yan Xingluo as she was to Yan Keguang.

She must have heard her conversation with the queen mother that night!

It's just that Yan Xingluo looked at Yan Li's appearance, but suddenly felt anger in her heart, although she herself is indeed as Yan Li said, but she doesn't want to be taken away by her is completely different things, Yan Li in her opinion not only robbed her father of the only favor that should have been given to her, but also used this to show off that as long as she wants her father, he will give it to her!

Yan Xingluo suddenly pushed Yan Li and shouted, "Get out!" Get out of here! ”

But Yan Li has practiced martial arts, how can Yan Xingluo push her. Seeing Yan Li standing still, Yan Xingluo's beautiful face was full of resentment at this time, "Get out!" I don't want to see you again! ”

Yan Li looked at Yan Xingluo and looked at her resentful eyes, her eyes were slightly downcast, she actually didn't want to be like this, although she didn't have a good impression of Yan Xingluo, but she was her imperial sister after all. In the end, he didn't say anything more, just slowly retreated.

The Queen's Bedchamber.

"Queen Mother!" Yan Xingluo shrank in the arms of Queen Jiang Yinru, pulling her sleeves and almost crying into tears, "She heard it, she heard all the words of our night Yan Li!" She must have persuaded her father to let her marry Xia Nanxuan on this ground! She just came to demonstrate with me, saying that I only love power and don't love Xia Nanxuan.

I don't love, does she do? She's just trying to snatch everything I want!

Queen mother! I can't take it anymore! ”

"Aluo doesn't cry, doesn't cry." Jiang Yinru stroked Yan Xingluo's back over and over again, her brows almost frowned, "Mother will think of a way later." ”

But in fact, Jiang Yinru didn't feel pity, and even a little glad that this Yanli had solved her troubles by marrying A Luo, so that A Luo didn't have to marry Xia Nanxuan, who had no future! But she definitely can't say these words to Yan Xingluo, who is angry.

But Xu is words stimulated Yan Xingluo, and she slammed Jiang Yinru and roared: "What can you come up with!" If you had a way, you wouldn't have looked at Yanli, who had died as a concubine for so many years, but she had the only favor of her father! ”

At this time, Yan Xingluo completely lost half of her usual gentleness and deference, and her beautiful and moving face was full of resentment.

Yan Xingluo's eyes were fierce, and her voice was resentful: "My father's eyes are full of only Yan Li's dead girl, in order to get my father's favor, I am all obedient, I have worked hard to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in terms of appearance and talent, which point is she better than me?" Why! Why is everything good hers?! ”

Queen Jiang Yinru looked at her at this time, opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word. As Yan Xingluo's mother, how can she not know the resentment that has accumulated in her heart over the years, and even she actually feels the same way as Yan Xingluo.

Jiang Yinru didn't care about Yan Xingluo's rudeness, she just looked at her with pity and heartache in her eyes, and her soft eyes clenched unconsciously. At this moment, Yan Xingluo stepped forward and grabbed her hand, and said firmly word by word, "What I lost, I will definitely get it back one by one." ”

With a pain in her heart, Jiang Yinru wanted to say something, but Yan Xingluo suddenly shook off the hand that was holding her and turned around and left.

Her back is still graceful like a fresh flower, but this beauty has since begun to be stained with a deadly shadow.

Cangya Country, the residence of the general of Zhenguo.

"Father, I wonder why you summoned me here?" An extremely handsome young man in white was standing in front of a sandalwood table at this time and bowed.

The man he called his father, with a cold and resolute face, looked about thirty or forty years old, wearing a black court robe embroidered with golden silk threads auspicious clouds, and at this time he was frowning and looking at the secret report in his hand.

Seeing the young man come in, he raised his eyes, and those eyes contained the unique evil aura of a general in the army, which was indescribably impressive.

This person is Zhu Qingshan, the martial champion of this Cangya country back then, and later became the general of the Zhenguo. And that young man in white is naturally his only son, the famous Chen prince of Cangya Country, Cangbeichen.

"Beichen, come and see this." Zhu Qingshan handed the secret report in his hand to Cang Beichen.

Cang Beichen took it and swept his eyes, and his face suddenly froze. Luoyan Kingdom is going to marry Qixia Kingdom?

And the object of marriage ...... It was her.

"What do you think?" Zhu Qingshan asked lightly, looking at that face as if he was a little unhappy.

"This time, the marriage between Qixia Kingdom and Luoyan Kingdom has affected the whole body, and now the marriage has become a trend, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop." Cang Beichen groaned, "This is a huge blow to our Cangya Country. ”

"What do you think?" Zhu Qingshan asked with a calm face, but looking at his face, it seemed that he had already made up his mind.

"Although the national strength of the Cangya Kingdom has now vaguely surpassed that of the Qixia Kingdom, it is still far from enough in the face of the alliance between the Qixia Kingdom and the Luoyan Kingdom. The only way now is to destroy the bonds of the alliance between the two countries, and then break them one by one. ”

"Not bad. You will soon set off for the kingdom of Qixia, and will do whatever it takes to destroy this bond of marriage. If you can let the six princesses of the Luoyan Kingdom die at the hands of the King of Naxuan of the Qixia Kingdom......" Zhu Qingshan's breathtaking eyes looked at Cang Beichen and said word by word, "Do you understand?" ”

Cang Beichen's eyes changed slightly, but he looked at Zhu Qingshan's eyes with a sinister look at his white robe, his knees suddenly knelt on the ground, and he hugged his fists and said, "The child understands!" ”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Three days before the wedding.

Yanli has been a little unstable in the past few nights, she sometimes dreams about the things between Xia Nanxuan and her when she was a child, and sometimes dreams that Xia Nanxuan is now looking at her with cold eyes, and in her dreams, she only feels that there seems to be a whirlpool in the dark, and no matter how she struggles, she can't escape.

She knew that although Yan Xingluo didn't love Xia Nanxuan, Xia Nanxuan must like Yan Xingluo, and she was actually very confused about what kind of situation she would face if she married Xia Nanxuan.

When he has another love, can he still tell him that he is An An? If he doesn't like her at all, just because of the promise he made when he was young, can she really accept such a relationship?

Today she got up early, and sat in the courtyard looking at the sky with only a thin coat on.

The sky had just turned white, and a faint morning light had begun to shine on the earth, but it did not bring her hope. Just like that night, when she led her troops to attack the enemy camp at night and won a complete victory, she also saw such a scene, and then she was captured in the enemy camp.

She sighed slightly.

"Yikes! Why did the princess sit here so early, careful of catching a cold! Cailan came in from outside and saw Yanli, and hurriedly went to the house to marry and get a cloak to put on Yanli.

"Cailan." The wild goose called softly.

"Princess?" Cai Lan wondered, thinking that the princess always seemed to be a little unstable in recent days, is it because she is worried about the upcoming marriage, so I am afraid that she will have to get some calming incense to make the princess more peaceful, so as not to be haggard on the day of marriage, this is a major event in the princess's life.

"You've been following Hongu for years."

"Yes, princess." Cai Lan responded, wondering why Yanli suddenly mentioned this.

Yan Li was slightly silent, and then looked at her: "In the future, when the palace leaves, you will go to serve Prince An, he will be generous and friendly, and he will never treat you badly." ”

Cai Lan was shocked, her eyes widened extremely round, and then she knelt down directly: "Princess, don't drive the slave away!" Cailan has no parents and relatives, and has nowhere else to go except to follow the princess. The princess is different from other masters, she never beats and scolds the slave maid, the slave knows in her heart that the princess treats me well, the princess goes to Qixia Kingdom, and the slave and maid follow the princess to Qixia Kingdom! ”

Cailan's expression was sincere, and Yanli looked at her in a daze, lost her mind for a long time. Halfway through, Yan Li raised her eyebrows and sighed lightly: "Get up, if you follow me, you may have to suffer a little later." Do you really want to? ”

"The slave is willing."

Yanli suddenly felt that some rare warmth was injected into her heart like a warm current, and even her mood became a lot better, she smiled: "Okay, I'm a little tired, you can help me in to rest." ”

Cailan got up and helped Yanli into the house.

Yanli slept until noon. When she woke up in a daze, she saw a figure sitting at the table as if bored, and she opened her eyes in shock.
