Chapter 38: Prologue

In the Yanran Palace, two women of the same age stood opposite each other, and their eyes were full of old spicy if they did not advance or retreat.

"Make a price, I want you to do things for me!" Princess Yunxi stood up and stared at Jiang Xiaohua.

She only smiled: "The princess is a cheerful person, I like this." ”

"It's just that silver doesn't always work with me, and there are occasional accidents."

"Humph! Let's get to the point. ”

"I'm here today to make a deal with Your Highness."

"Deal? Before talking about a deal, weigh your own weight, and this princess only makes deals with people with equal strength. ”

"I haven't really weighed it if it's reciprocal, but I'm sure there's one thing the princess wants."

Princess Yunxi turned around and faced the window, since the beginning of spring, the weather seems to be not as cold as before, and the cold and cold of scraping the bones are a little gentle.

"Say!"

Jiang Xiaoli was unhurried: "Related to the princess's skin, the secret of the royal family of the Dache Kingdom!" ”

"The secret of the Great Che Country!" She repeated the sentence with disdain, "What do you know?" ”

"Then it depends on what the princess can promise me?"

"What do you want?"

"Dare to ask the princess, what do you want to do with Zhao Wu next?"

"Guess what?"

Jiang Xiaoli paced to the window: "If you want to shake the eldest prince, it is not enough to just imprison her, the biggest shake is naturally ......"

"Death!"

The reason why Zhao Wu is still alive is because it is not yet the emperor's birthday!

"Clever!" The princess said lightly, "If you give Zhao Wu's corpse to the eldest brother, and if you keep him, you will immediately become a 'corpse' who is willing to fall." ”

"It's a good idea, but it's very ineffective." Jiang Xiaohua turned his back hand against the light and looked at the opposite side, "The marriage of one can be postponed, and if the eldest prince relaxes, it will inevitably double the suppression of you, after all, you are not loved by the emperor, and no one supports you." ”

"It's too early to be tough with the eldest prince, because behind the eldest prince, there is still a second prince in front of you. Dache Kingdom exudes patriarchal thinking from top to bottom, and your chances are slim! ”

"If the biological mother of the two princes, the queen comes to help again, the princess's chances of winning will immediately drop to zero, and it will be difficult to protect herself."

The facts are there, and there is no room for disbelief.

Princess Yunxi stared at the wild grass on the desk for a long time, she had been waiting for an opportunity, but God didn't seem to be on her side: "What do you want?" ”

Jiang Xiaoli didn't spare the bend: "Let Zhao Wu go!" Don't just do things in a desperate way. ”

"You, want to protect Zhao Wu?" The princess wondered, "What is there for her to take your chance?" ”

"Collect people's money and save people's lives! The eldest prince paid a thousand taels of gold! ”

"It's indeed a good idea to use silver money as a guise," Princess Yunxi walked across from Jiang Xiaohua, "But I see, your purpose is not in the dead things of gold, jade and silver coins at all. ”

Jiang Xiaoli calmly met the searching gaze: "Anyway, it's not, the position of the prince!" ”

"Interesting! It's okay to let Zhao Wu live, it depends on whether you have the ability to protect her. ”

"I'm here to thank Princess Yunxi for her kindness." Jiang Xiaoli took out a brocade cloth from his arms and offered it.

The princess took it and unfolded it and looked at it horizontally and vertically for a long time: "Have you ever read this?" ”

Naturally, she can read it, but will she speak?

"I don't understand! Those twists and turns of the symbols were originally tepicted according to the picture, but I really don't know what they mean? ”

Jiang Xiaoli pretended to be surprised: "You are a royal family, and you can't understand it?" ”

Yun Xi shook his head: "It doesn't hurt to reveal a secret to you, the so-called secret of the royal family is just a cover, and this secret actually only belongs to my father and the people who have been in that position." ”

"Just one person?" This is a bit of a surprise.

"Hmm."

What kind of secret is this?

When Jiang Xiaoli left, it was already evening.

Yun Xi watched this unexpected visitor leave suddenly, and the corners of his mouth turned into a smile, this battle became more and more interesting.

At the same moment, the Shadow Pavilion more than ten miles away also welcomed an unexpected visitor.

Pavilion Master Zhu Mian and Chief Manager Yu stood at the window in the hall.

"I heard that the people in your pavilion are quite close to His Highness Yunxi?" It's the voice of the manager.

"Oh?" Zhu Mian pretended not to know his voice but was extremely calm, "Qiu Que is busy with something these days, and I haven't asked what I'm busy with." ”

"As the pavilion master of the Shadow Pavilion, you should restrain your subordinates and share the emperor's worries."

His meaning is naturally obvious, it is inappropriate for the Shadow Pavilion to intervene in the dispute between the princess and the eldest prince.

"Naturally, the Shadow Pavilion has always been the emperor's most loyal sword, and he never dares to forget it." Zhu Mian's words are conclusive, and his attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.

"So, how should this matter be handled?" It turned out that Manager Yu was here to stop the Shadow Pavilion and the eldest princess from joining forces.

Zhu Mian turned sideways and faced the person next to him: "My shadowy attitude is known to the governor, we will always be loyal to the emperor and maintain the firmness of the imperial power." ”

"Hmph, what a 'firm imperial power'! But I forgot the essence of your perseverance for a hundred years. ”

"Manager Yu has won the award."

Now, it's too early to say who will win the battle for the storage position, and the Shadow Pavilion will definitely not put the bet on only one person, at least until the situation is clear, it has always been a love grass physique.

Zhu Mian has such an attitude.

Mr. Yu has also thought of it.

This is tantamount to indirectly refusing the manager's request, and the conversation between the two naturally broke up unhappily.

As soon as the people visiting on the front foot left, the back foot mound returned to the Shadow Pavilion.

The two chatted while drinking tea in the side hall.

"Just had a visitor?" A few wisps of tea breath made me feel refreshed.

Zhu Mian nodded and poured out the tea: "If you wear small shoes, you don't have to pay attention to it." ”

For him, he is naturally able to deal with these things with ease.

"How's your progress going?"

In a haze, Qiu Que looked up at the window: "Sort of, it's the prelude." ”

"Don't be too fast, the warm water will be scalded slowly, and the heat will be revealed."

The arrival of the general manager shows that he has attracted the attention of the current person.

"Yes."

The second tea is poured into the cup, golden and clear, and the aroma comes to the face.

Zhu Mian pushed the cup filled with tea to the opposite side: "I must have met that person again?" ”

Qiu Que nodded: "It's okay." ”

"He followed me all day before, and he was quick to think and speak crisply, making him a difficult character."

Zhu Mian talked about the events of that day, but he didn't mention who he visited.

Qiu Que thought to himself, it was not only difficult: "With her involvement, it makes things difficult to distinguish between fiction and reality, truth and falsehood." ”

"It's not a bad thing."

Zhu Mian also looked up at the window and sighed lightly: "Since the shadow is self-deserving of my shadow pavilion, if it can't be used by me......"

"Then get rid of it!"

Qiu Que's hand as he lifted the teacup froze, and only then did he take a sip closer to his lips.

This slight move did not escape the eyes of the side and the perceptive.

"Let's not talk about this first, let's talk about what's in front of you." As soon as Zhu Mian's cup was released, a person was called, and after whispering, the person went straight out.

Seeing Qiu Que's inquiring gaze, he explained with a smile:

"She went to the princess's palace today, and this news should be known to the eldest prince."
