Chapter 1111: Mutual Probing
Helian Yingche has never let go in front of Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Underworld.
Helian Yingche returned from the palace to Tengjiao Palace. I saw Ning Pingzhi, the concubine who was waiting for him in the room.
"It's so late, haven't you slept yet?"
Helian Ying Chejun had something on his mind and asked Ning Pingzhi softly.
"Early this morning, I heard that the emperor had entered the palace. I didn't expect the emperor to come back so late. ”
Ning Pingzhi looked at the sky outside the window with the crescent moon hanging high, and said to Helian Yingche with a smile: "It's so late, I don't know if the emperor has had dinner?" I'll cook for the emperor and get some food. ”
Ning Pingzhi turned around and was about to go to the kitchen.
"Wait a minute. The widow has some things to tell you today. ”
Ning Pingzhi was stunned in place, obviously guessing something from Helian Yingche's eyes and Helian Yingche's slightly frowning brows.
Ning Pingzhi pretended to be fine, and asked Helian Yingche gently.
"Does the emperor have anything to order?"
"Sit down and talk slowly."
Helian Yingche asked Ning Pingzhi to sit down. The two of them chatted on their knees.
"What?! Looking at the emperor's appearance today, it doesn't seem that he has something on his mind, and he is not very happy? ”
Ning Pingzhi looked at Helian Yingche's heavy face and asked cautiously.
Helian Yingche shook his head and sighed heavily. did not directly, when he entered the palace today, Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Underworld, proposed to let Ning Pingzhi remarry, and told Ning Pingzhi to listen.
Helian Yingche changed the topic and directly asked Ning Pingzhi if she had encountered anything special when she stayed in Tengjiao Palace today.
"Today, the two princesses Yuyi and Chanjuan, did they find you and tell you something about you?"
Ning Pingzhi heard Helian Yingche mention this, and suddenly chuckled in her heart.
Ning Pingzhi seemed to have a premonition from Helian Yingche's expression that Helian Yingche seemed to know something, about the two princesses Yuyi and Chanjuan, who were going to remarry Ning Pingzhi.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that Princess Yuyi and Princess Chanjuan also feel very stuffy when they see me alone in the room. So they called me over and talked and talked together. ”
Ning Pingzhi revealed little by little like Helian Yingche what happened today.
Helian Yingche heard Ning Pingzhi's answer, his expression suddenly became very nervous, and he hurriedly followed with a question.
"So did the two of them say anything to you alone today?"
Ning Pingzhi raised her eyes, her gaze stayed on Helian Yingche's face, and in two or three seconds, Helian Yingche clearly felt that Ning Pingzhi's expression had undergone a subtle change. Helian Yingche's words seemed to hit Ning Pingzhi's heart.
After a short eye contact, Ning Pingzhi hurriedly withdrew her gaze and looked at him left and right.
"No, no. Didn't say anything, just a daily triviality. ”
"Trivia?!"
Helian Yingche didn't seem to believe Ning Pingzhi's answer. There was some confusion on his expression.
Ning Pingzhi smiled slightly.
"Yes. It's nothing more than talking about some daughters' homes and whispering in private. Or when did you suddenly become interested in these trivial matters, and the content of our conversations? ”
Helian Yingche knew that Ning Pingzhi's answer was not the truth of the matter. She had reservations about him.
"However, do you want to know what today, Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Underworld, is looking for a widow to enter the palace?"
Ning Pingzhi smiled slightly, revealing a hint of weakness and embarrassment in her smile.
"Didn't the King of the Northern Hades invite the emperor into the palace and play chess together?"
Helian Yingche shook his head.
"The Northern Hades King is a drunkard this time, and he doesn't mean to drink. Finding a widow to play chess is just a reason for him to let a widow enter the palace. His real purpose was something else. ”
"There are other ...... What is the meaning? Ning Pingzhi suddenly felt nervous, she seemed to have realized that Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Netherworld, might have known that the two princesses, Yuyi and Chanjuan, wanted to arrange for Ning Pingzhi to remarry. Maybe this time, Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Underworld, suddenly invited Helian Yingche into the palace, just to talk to Helian Yingche about it.
Perhaps because of nervousness, Ning Pingzhi's brows frowned.
"Maybe you didn't even think of it. The King of the Northern Hades suddenly called the widow into the palace this time, and he would mention you to the widow intentionally or unintentionally! ”
"Me?!"
Ning Pingzhi pretended to be in disbelief, with a shocked face.
"Yes, that's right, he just mentioned you to the widow this time!"
Helian Yingche said as he stared at Ning Pingzhi tightly, paying attention to the subtle change in the expression on Ning Pingzhi's face when she heard this.
Ning Pingzhi asked embarrassedly, "Why is the Northern Hades King so dignified that he suddenly remembered to mention me." And I have nothing to mention?! I don't know, what did the King of the Northern Hades say to the emperor? ”
Ning Pingzhi only saw the anxiety in her heart.
Before Helian Yingche came back, Ning Pingzhi didn't know whether to tell Helian Yingche about it. At the same time, I don't know how to speak.
Unexpectedly, Su Bili, the monarch of the Northern Underworld, was one step ahead, like Helian Yingche mentioned her.
Since Ning Pingzhi was reluctant to mention it herself, Helian Yingche wanted to find out about this matter herself.
"I don't know why today, the Northern Hades King suddenly mentioned you to the widow and asked if you were doing in Tengjiao Palace? At the same time, it was mentioned that his two younger sisters, Princess Yuyi and Princess Chanjuan, had been arrogant since childhood. So the temperament and character are more willful. I'm sorry for the grievances you've suffered......"
Helian Yingche suddenly paused when he said this.
"Strange, the King of the Northern Hades suddenly said, what are these doings! In fact, the two princesses have always been quite good to me. Now, such a life will be quite satisfying. The King of the Northern Hades can't do it, because of this little thing. I feel that the two princesses have wronged me. ”
"If that's what you're thinking, you're very wrong." Helian Yingche still decided to open his mouth, asking for the truth of the facts, and said to Ning Pingzhi.
"The King of the Northern Hades told the widow about these things, and after feeling a little emotional, he suddenly said, for the sake of your future life and happiness. I want to be a matchmaker for you and arrange for you to remarry. ”
Ning Pingzhi was surprised and then took two steps back, almost not standing firm.
"How could the Northern Hades King suddenly want to arrange for me to remarry?! Could it be that the emperor already has the intention of reposing me and driving me out of Tengjiao Palace? ”
At this time, Ning Pingzhi was not completely sure of Helian Yingche's attitude towards this matter. Therefore, Ning Pingzhi might as well directly follow the clarification of this matter, test and probe, Helian Yingche's reaction.
