"Take me as a concubine?" Sun Pingling took a sip of tea, "Is this really what Your Majesty meant?"

"His Majesty left me to have supper with him, and told me about it at the table. Sun Tai glanced at his daughter and said.

"And what did my father say?"

"I'll come back and ask you what you mean. Sun Tai said, "Ping Ling, what do you think about this matter?"

"Father, you know my character, and I don't want to be a concubine. Sun Pingling said lightly, "I used to be wholeheartedly for Your Majesty and for the society of Nanchu, but my mind Your Majesty abandoned it like a shoe, and now I only have the identity of the daughter of the Taifu to enter his eyes." He doesn't love my soul or appreciate my talent, so why should I marry him?"

"Since this is what Your Majesty wants, how can you shirk it?" Sun Tai said with a sigh.

"Since my father asked me if I agreed, I naturally wouldn't agree, this is my personal wish. Sun Pingling said lightly, "But if Your Majesty makes an order, this is a holy decree, I can't disobey it, I will enter the palace, that's all." ”

"Hey!" Sun Tai sighed and shook his head gently, "Your Majesty is a student that I taught single-handedly, but I can't see through him more and more!"

Time slipped through my fingers, and in a blink of an eye, it was August.

Inside the inn.

"Go down. Qian Yan waved his hand, "This princess doesn't need you to serve anymore. ”

When the words fell, several maids retreated, but only one remained.

She raised her eyebrows and glanced at the woman who had stayed, and asked, "What are you still doing with your stay?"

The woman smiled slightly and asked, "Doesn't the princess want to know what Your Majesty did when she left Linyuan immediately after you left, princess?"

Qian Yan squinted slightly at the woman in front of him and asked, "Who are you?" and what do you want to do?"

"I just think that the princess should know the truth, and not be deceived by His Majesty. The woman said, "Actually, there is one thing that everyone in the Southern Chu Palace knows very well, Your Majesty has a beloved woman, this woman is from Northern Xia, and she met His Majesty when he was a proton in Northern Xia. However, there were other people in the woman's heart, and they did not stay, but His Majesty always remembered her. On the 2th day of July, that is, the day of your wedding, it was when the woman was in danger, so he wanted to provoke the princess and let the princess return to the Western Wei Dynasty, and he went to save the woman. In His Majesty's mind, that woman is far more important than a wedding!"

Qian Yan's face was completely gloomy, and he asked in a cold voice, "Who is that woman?"

"Her name is Jiang Liu, she was originally the side concubine of the prince of Northern Xia, and now she is in the territory of Southern Chu!" the woman smiled slightly.

Qian Yan looked at the woman in front of him coldly, and asked coldly, "Who are you, why are you telling me this?"

"I'm just an inconsequential person, I just don't want you to know anything, princess!" the woman smiled faintly, "Actually, the road to the future is in your hands, princess, and you make your own choice, but the princess doesn't want the truth to be hidden when you make your choice, right? ”

After the woman finished speaking, she blessed her body and left quickly.

When Qian Yan came back to her senses and wanted to interrogate her, the woman was gone.

"Someone!" Qian Yan shouted.

"Princess, what's the matter?" asked the guard.

"Who is that maid just now, find her out for me, I still have a lot to ask her!" Qian Yan said, "Also, send someone to the Nanchu Palace to inquire if there is a person named Jiang Liu, what is her relationship with Your Majesty!"

"Yes!"

It's just that Qian Yan didn't find the woman's figure, but this kind of insult of being deceived was a thorn in her heart.

Leaving the inn, the woman quickly changed into the red clothes she was used to, and soon rushed to meet a man in white.

"Young master, I have already told the ninth princess about Jiang Liu. The matchmaker hugged her fists and said, "What should I do next?"

"The Ninth Princess will plant a seed in her heart, with her proud personality, she will not allow the existence of a woman to occupy her husband's heart, she will either use the power of Western Wei to force Mi Zi to get rid of Jiang Liu, or she will do it herself!" Qi Muxuan said, "No matter what, at this point, she will be our ally." We try to win her over, maybe it will be of great use to us in the future. ”

"Hmm. The matchmaker nodded, "I know what to do." ”

"I just received the news, Liu Xu rushed here. Qi Muxuan said coldly, "Since he came to save Jiang Liu, then let's go to the meeting and join in the fun, right?"

"Do you need to inform Mi Zi about this?" asked the matchmaker.

"Do you think he won't know?" Qi Muxuan smiled, "He left Jiang Liu with Cai Jing instead of bringing him back to Linyuan, firstly because he was about to get married and had a lot of inconveniences, and on the other hand, he also wanted to use her as a bait so that Liu Xu could throw himself into the net." ”

"I see. The matchmaker said, "Then do we need to go and arrange it in advance?" ”

"This matter is a contest between Mi Zi and Liu Xu, we don't have to interfere too much, we just need to keep an eye on the progress of the situation at the moment. Qi Muxuan said lightly.

"Yes. ”

Cai Fu.

Mo Ziyu is now almost able to adapt to blindness, her eyes can't see, but her hearing seems to be more sensitive, she often goes to the yard to bask in the sun, it seems that flying insects fly by, and the sound of a leaf falling seems to be able to be captured by her.

Hao Ding would often chat with her when she was basking in the sun, but he couldn't help but say that His Majesty was sincere to her, and hoped that she could return to His Majesty's side and stop messing around like this.

Maybe for the people around Liu Xu, he is also messing around.

A man has put you in his eyes and heart, so he should be grateful to him, right?

Her own persistence, those pursuits, those helplessness and sadness, maybe in the eyes of others, are just the word "nonsense", maybe she has reached the point where she is today, and in their eyes, she is just self-inflicted.

Earlier, Mo Ziyu would argue with Hao Ding for a few words, but everyone's positions were different and their experiences were different, so how could they expect to be able to understand each other's thoughts? Later, Mo Ziyu gave up, even though the whole world felt that she was making trouble and taking the blame for herself, she just understood the persistence in her heart.

"Is the osmanthus blooming?" asked Mo Ziyu.

Cai Jing clenched his fists and smiled: "The girl smelled it? There are two osmanthus trees planted in the front yard, and now is the season of fragrance! This time is like an arrow, and it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, I don't know if the girl has any instructions?"

"Is it almost the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Mo Ziyu was silent for a moment, "I have no relatives, this Mid-Autumn Festival is just an ordinary day for me, I don't have any requirements." ”

"The girl still doesn't know, His Majesty's wedding is scheduled for the third day of the ninth month. Cai Jing said, "On that day, at the same time, Sun Pingling, the daughter of Mrs. Sun, will be canonized as a concubine, which can be regarded as a double happiness! I originally thought that this wedding day was delayed, and the Western Wei Dynasty must be dissatisfied, but I didn't expect to make such a concession!

"Is it?" Mo Ziyu said softly, there was no sorrow or joy in her heart, marrying with Western Wei was the best choice for Southern Chu, but she was still from Northern Xia after all, and she didn't want Southern Chu to join forces with Western Wei to threaten Northern Xia. He was determined to take revenge, and he would not let his plan fail, and that young man had grown into a qualified politician and careerist in a short time.

"The girl has been staying in the house all day, I'm afraid that I'm also bored, tomorrow we will wait for the girl to go out for a walk, what does the girl think?" Cai Jing thought about it and said.

"Distracted, I can't see anything with my eyes, how can I distract?" Mo Ziyu laughed at himself.

"Go blow the wind, breathe some fresh air, or listen to the opera or something!" Cai Jing said, "It's so good, I'll arrange it, and I will definitely satisfy the girl, what does the girl think?"

"In this way, thank you Lord Cai for your trouble!"

Cai Jing did what he said, and took Mo Ziyu out of the house on the second day, of course, Hao Ding couldn't let Mo Ziyu go out with confidence, so he naturally followed left and right.

"Girl, the scenery here is beautiful, there is a small Tan in front of you, quiet and far away, you can also hear the birds and insects, the girl can take a break here. Cai Jing said, "Girl, get out of the car." ”

The two maids helped Mo Ziyu get out of the carriage, Mo Ziyu took a deep breath and sighed: "The air here is really fresh. ”

Mo Ziyu sat down on a stone and quietly felt the scenery of the lake and mountains.

But Cai Jing and Hao Ding were not as relaxed as her, their faces looked very vigilant and dignified, as if they were arranging something important. Their eyes looked around unknowingly, as if waiting for someone to appear.

And not far away, it was Qing Ling who was ambushed with the secret guards, and the girl finally went out today, and she wanted to snatch people here again.

Just as she was about to start moving, a dark shadow suddenly fell behind her, she hurriedly turned around, and whispered in surprise: "Brother, why are you here?"

"No action, there is an ambush. Qing Yue said, "Withdraw, Your Highness, go back and discuss." ”

"Your Highness has arrived?" Qing Ling frowned, "Okay, we'll withdraw now." ”
