Chapter 280: The Queen Mother's Assist
Under the bowing of everyone, the Queen Mother and Princess Xiaoxiang slowly walked to the throne in the middle, and the prince Li Liangzuo in the back was brought to a seat not far from them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Ping'er looked to the side intentionally or unintentionally, and sure enough, she saw Yang Xiangwu's figure among several candidates, Yang Xiangwu also raised her head and showed a smile to Li Ping'er, Li Ping'er also replied with a charming smile, Yang Xiangwu was so fascinated that Princess Xiaoxiang asked everyone to sit down, and he was still standing there stupidly. Fortunately, Lu Xiaoyu pulled him down next to him.
"Today's final pony selection officially begins, please ask the princess to give the exam questions in person?" A little eunuch said in a shrill voice.
"Wait, Princess Qiyu, the grass people have something to tell you." It was Feng Chengjie who said this, and he got up and saluted Princess Xiaoxiang.
"If there is anything to do with the fine seal Gongzi, sit down and say, you don't have to salute." Princess Xiaoxiang was still wearing an eye patch at this time, and no one could see her face clearly.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the grass people think that two of the four horse candidates present are not qualified to participate in the competition at all, and on the contrary, they should be imprisoned in my Xixia prison, right?" When Feng Chengjie said this, his eyes were already looking at Yang Xiangwu and Lu Xiaoyu at the other table.
Yang Xiangwu and Lu Xiaoyu knew that this fine seal Chengjie must have inquired about the fact that they were not from Western Xia, so they deliberately reported it to the princess.
Princess Xiaoxiang naturally guessed what Xifeng Chengjie wanted to say, and she also knew that Lu Xiaoyu was not from Xixia, and there was no stipulation in the requirements for selecting a horse that the candidate for a horse must be a Xixia person.
But he didn't care about it, he took out the information transferred from the household department, proving that the personal information of Yang Xiangwu and Lu Xiaoyu was not found in Xixia, and they were two people with suspicious identities at all.
"I know that there is no regional restriction on the selection of our concubines this time, but please remember that the Western Xia had just had a war with Southern Chu earlier, and now they have learned the news that the princess wants to choose the concubines, and it is impossible to say that they specially sent the two of them to be undercover agents. In order to prevent Yu Weiran, the grass people thought that they should be temporarily detained, and they should be deported when they went to Nanchu to find out their true identities, and this person who came with them pretended to be very mysterious all day long, and there must be ghosts among them. I have seen with my own eyes that they went out in the afternoon at the gate of the palace where they rested, and did not return until evening, and you must know that the gate was guarded by guards, so how could they be easily let go? If the princess doesn't believe her, she can confront the two guards at the door. ”
It's troublesome now, it turns out that this fine seal Chengjie is quite delicate, and he actually let him see what we secretly ran out. Fortunately, the guards have just been immobilized, they must not admit it, they just saw us go out again, no one will believe him just by his words, Lu Xiaoyu thought.
"Okay, then let those two guards confront each other and see if they went out at the time. If you go out, then the palace will be severely punished. "The princess spoke quietly, but very powerfully.
As soon as this remark came out, Lu Xiaoyu and the others were indeed a little flustered, they wouldn't have made some mess at this time, they knew that they would withdraw from the selection directly before they came, and they were also curious to kill the cat, so they had to join in this excitement to see what the royal banquet looked like, but now it is better to put themselves as generals.
Sure enough, after the two guards came, when the princess asked if they had been out of the palace just now, they did not directly deny it, but began to vomit, as if they wanted to deliberately hide something, but their acting skills were very poor, and it was simply the feeling of three hundred taels here. Lu Xiaoyu saw that he was sneering at Chengjie next to him and understood that he must have deliberately instigated the two of them to talk like this.
The princess was angry, "What do you say?" If you don't honestly explain whether you have entered and exited the palace at will, if you don't believe it or not, the palace will drag you out and behead you? ”
The two guards panicked when they heard this, and hurriedly knelt down to admit their mistakes, "Her Royal Highness the princess spared her life, and it was the little one who should have let three of the candidates out." But we were also forced by them, please spare your life, Your Royal Highness! They didn't tell the situation until this time, which showed the truth of the matter, and the trick of sealing Chengjie was really clever, and he smiled triumphantly on the side, feeling that he was already half sitting in the seat of the horse.
"What did they force you, recruit it truthfully!" Father-in-law Chang came out at the right time to fan the flames on the side.
The two guards were just about to speak, when a voice suddenly remembered, "Okay, okay, you don't need to explain, I'll help you." I asked these three Nan Chu to come to the harem. ”
What the! These people were all let out by the Queen Mother, and they went to the harem? This was the first time in the history of Western Xia.
Feng Chengjie was originally waiting for the princess to put these three people in prison, but he didn't expect to be surprised when he heard the Queen Mother say this, how could it be that these people still have a relationship with the Queen Mother, which made him feel that these three people were not ordinary. But now that the Queen Mother is behind them, they can only be more restrained.
Yang Xiangwu saw that Li Ping'er was meddling in this matter at this time, and looked at her gratefully, she had let her suffer for so many years, and now she was in turn asking her to help her get out, she really owed her too much, and she must be compensated twice in the future.
"What the hell is going on?" The princess asked curiously, she originally knew the identity of Lu Xiaoyu and the others from Nanchu, and also knew that they came to Xixia for something, but she didn't expect that this was actually related to her imperial grandmother, could it be that she asked these three people to help Xixia?
"Blame me for not telling you about this matter in advance, Xiaoxiang, you know that although grandma is the queen mother of Western Xia, she is also from Southern Chu, and she still has feelings for Southern Chu. I have no hostility on either side of the people of Southern Chu and the people of Western Xia, I only hope that the world will not kill too much. This is also the original intention of me to build the Buddha hall in the first place, to wash away the anger of the former king's years of killing and conquest, so that he can live a better life below. It just so happened that grandma knew a virtuous master in Nanchu in her early years, he was proficient in astronomy and geography and knew feng shui yin and yang, so when you chose a horse, I specially ordered someone to call him from Nanchu, it was the older Mr. Yang Xiangwu, and the other two were the high apprentices he brought, all of whom were talents who could govern one side, Xiaoxiang, you should cherish grandma's good intentions for you. The Queen Mother said lightly, making people feel that there was nothing to doubt at all.
