Chapter 361: Acting on the Scene (Part II)
Who is the "heart" and who is the "baby"?
Lin Ying glanced at Shu'er's work, and only heard Gu Yu say coldly: "Your Royal Highness's dragon body is noble, Gu Yu doesn't dare to be the 'heart and liver baby' of the real dragon." Sister Ruan, didn't she eat the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dared to compare herself to the 'heart and liver baby' of the real dragon Tianzi? ”
Ruan Qing sneered: "I didn't expect that Sister Gu would be used to playing tricks!" If you have the ability, you will show your real kung fu. It just so happens that Princess Dongfang, the king of Anyi, is here, who has real skills, who is the fist and embroidered legs, the princess will know at a glance. ”
Lin Ying was still holding Ruan Qing and Gu Yu's fists, her face suddenly turned cold at this time, she looked at Shu'er, who was still sitting on the upper seat of Xinlan Palace, and said, "Princess Dongfang, King of Anyi, the widow has been in the palace for a long time, why did you have to wait for a long time, but I didn't see you get up and salute the widow?" ”
Shu'er couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because she had never heard Lin Ying speak to her in such a tone.
Lin Ying took advantage of Shu'er's stunned and continued: "Princess Dongfang, King of Anyi, you came from afar, and when you return to Chu State, you don't come to Linjiang to ask the widow for peace first, how can you come to Zhaohuang Palace and stir up the chickens and dogs in the widow's house?" Ah Qing and Ah Yu are such virtuous and elegant temperaments, the widow knows best. The two of them have never been at odds on weekdays, how did they get your Xinlan Palace, and they waved their little fists? ”
Shu'er saw that Lin Ying was suddenly so abnormal, and suddenly thought of what he said to himself before the meeting: "You remember, in this Zhaohuang Palace, I only believe in you, and you have to believe me." No matter how many people I have ever failed your trust, I, Lin Ying, will never be one of them in my life. ”
Shu'er immediately understood and understood that Lin Ying was falsely reprimanding her and deliberately estranged from her, so as to establish the majesty of the king of Chu in front of the relatives of the three princes and nine kings of the state of Chu, and also to show that the king of Chu did not like the woman who was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the king of Song.
Shu'er got up, scribbled a salute, and cooperated: "Since Your Highness is the lord of the prince of the county, after the minister returns to Chu, he naturally has to return to the fiefdom to deal with official affairs first, so as to live up to His Highness's trust." Unexpectedly, this move actually neglected His Highness, and I hope that His Highness has a large number of them, so don't worry about the ministers.
As for His Highness's family affairs...... Since His Highness said that these two sisters were 'virtuous and elegant', why did he compare them to 'chicken dogs'? ”
Lin Ying glanced at Shu'er, soothed Ruan Qing and Gu Yu's hands, and whispered to the two of them, "Don't pay attention to her!" After she has provoked the relationship between the two of you, she is going to provoke the relationship between the widow and you, and she has to stir up the widow's house, so that their sister and brother can stabilize the thin corner of Anyi County! We can't fall for her tricks! ”
Ruan Qing and Gu Yu nodded in unison, no longer glaring at each other.
Only then did Lin Ying let go of the hands of the two of them. The two retreated into their seats, only to hear Lin Ying's tone of displeasure: "Princess Dongfang, the widow respects the first king and the first queen, so he is quite lenient to you and the son." But there is a limit to the patience of the widow, and the princess is asked to respect herself.
The widow named you the king of Anyi in the state of Chu, not for you to have 100,000 troops, but to throw yourself into the arms of the king of Song. You kept saying that you would go back to the fiefdom to deal with official business first, but the widow heard that after you returned to the county king's mansion, you didn't care about the case at all, but asked the doctor to check the pulse every day and study the method of fetal safety. The widow wanted to ask, is it the official affairs of the Chu State that are important, or is it the illegitimate son of you and the King of Song that is important? ”
Yan Xiao watched Lin Ying and Shu'er grow up in Chen Guofanjing together, and when she saw that the two of them suddenly faced each other, she felt that the years were ruthless and sad, so she interrupted: "Is Your Highness's words too heavy?" The princess also has a lot of helplessness, and I hope Her Royal Highness can understand. ”
Shu'er patted Yan Xiao's hand and said, "Aunt Yan, he is no longer the little lord of King Sheng's Mansion back then. Now people are the Ninety-Five, high, majestic and imposing, others want to look at his face and act, why should he be considerate of other people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows? ”
Lin Ying had indeed pretended to be frosty before, but at this time, when she heard Shu'er say that he was no longer the little lord of the Shengwang Mansion back then, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, and she didn't have to bother to keep her face stiff anymore, and even her eyes were cold from the inside out.
Forgiveness, I naturally don't need to understand other people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, but your joys, sorrows, and sorrows are like storms and rains for me. You and I have known each other since childhood, walked together from the Chu State to the Chen State thousands of miles away, and then walked back to the Chu State together, and to the present day.
When I was a child, you let me, and when I grew up, I let you.
We never had any arguments.
At this time, although we know each other well, you and I are just acting on the spot, and we have a tacit understanding, but even if we are "playing", I don't want to say such things to you in such a tone.
Lin Ying saw that Shu'er ignored him, and although she couldn't bear it, she still asked Shicai's words again: "Princess Dongfang, the widow asked you, is it the official business of the Chu State that is important, or is it the illegitimate son of you and the King of Song that is important?" ”
Shu'er sneered and asked rhetorically: "Since Your Highness is asking like this, then the minister also wants to ask Your Highness, is it the official affairs of the Chu State that are important, or is Your Highness's gentle township important?" ”
Lin Ying raised her eyebrows: "What does King Anyi mean by this?" ”
Shu'er glanced at the twelve beauties of the Chu Palace: "The minister thought that His Royal Highness summoned the ministers into the palace to participate in the sacrifice of the King of Shu, so the ministers entered the palace in white clothes." Even His Royal Highness himself is dressed in white today to show respect for the King of Shu. However, why can the twelve harem beauties of His Royal Highness not be dressed in white? If it weren't for the connivance of His Royal Highness, how would these twelve sisters dare to disrespect the King of Shu without authorization, and how would they dare to ignore the rituals of the Chu State? ”
The twelve beauties looked at each other head-on, and Lin Ying smiled and said, "King Anyi has good eyesight!" The widow did make a will, so that the widow's woman did not have to mourn for the king of Shu. But this is not because the widow spoils them, but because they are not like you and me, both of whom have lost their parents. They can't mourn casually, otherwise it will be unlucky. The three princes and nine ministers of the Chu State are all the pillars of the society, and they are relied on by the widows, and they cannot be contaminated with any unlucky things. Therefore, a widowed woman does not have to mourn, it is the official business of the Chu State. ”
Shu'er also smiled: "Since His Highness said so, then the minister's answer is also the same." The child in the belly of the minister is the blood and blood of King Song. If there is any accident with this child, King Song will definitely be furious and take the opportunity to raise troops against my Chu State. King Song destroyed the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Shu in one fell swoop, and if he wants to destroy my Chu State, it must be easy. The ministers sought medical advice and regarded fetal safety as the top priority, precisely because it was the official business of the Chu State to keep the blood and blood of the Song King and not give the Song King any reason to attack Chu. ”
Lin Ying said again: "King Anyi is really good at arguing. But since King Anyi knows that if the child in your womb encounters an accident in the Chu State, the King of Song can take the opportunity to attack our Chu State, so why do you still want to return to Chu? Since you are with the King of Song, why don't you stay in the Song Palace, and you have to return to the Chu State to cause chaos? ”
Shu'er shook her head: "Your Highness is very intelligent, how could you ask such a ...... The obvious question? Passers-by know that in the Song Palace, the Empress Dowager of the Qiao family covered the sky with one hand, and the Empress Dowager was also surnamed Qiao, and the Empress Dowager was also surnamed Qiao. Although the Qiao family lived in seclusion in the cold palace after the abolition, her brother was still the Teng Yong general who inherited the prince of Pyeongchang, and helped the king of Song to destroy Shu, which was indispensable. Therefore, after Qiao's abolition, she may make a comeback at any time with the power of her brother.
There is also another Ling woman in the Song Palace, who is the niece of Ling Mo, the prime minister of the Song Kingdom, and she is a delicate beauty. Behind the abolition of the Qiao family and the Ling woman, each has the civil and military half of the Song Kingdom. Neither of them had any children, how could they tolerate Xia Chen, the princess of Chu who was pregnant with the blood of King Song, to stay in the Song Palace safely?
Therefore, for Yu Chen, the safest place was the state of Chu, not the state of Song. ”
Lin Ying said: "Princess Dongfang, you are safe, but as soon as you come back, our Chu Kingdom may not be safe." ”
Shu'er smiled brightly: "Looking at the whole Chu country, the only one who is afraid of the ministers now is His Highness." As long as His Highness's people do not come to harm me and the child in my womb, who will risk angering the King of Song to harm me? ”
Lin Ying pretended to laugh heartily: "King Anyi is really good at laughing!" No matter how jealous the widow is of you, you are also the cousin of the widow and the mother of the son of the king of Song, how can the widow bear to harm you, and how dare to harm you? The widow will only take care of you!
According to the eyes of the widows, the best place in Chu is Linjiang City, and the best place in Linjiang City is this Zhaohuang Palace! It's better to do this, during the days when you are waiting for childbirth, stay in the Xinlan Hall of Zhaohuang Palace, don't walk around! The child of the King of Song is so noble, and he should also be born in the most noble place in the Chu State! ”
Seeing that the Dongfang princess frowned and was silent, she glared at Her Royal Highness, and immediately understood that Her Highness was taking the opportunity to put the King of Anyi, who was in charge of the 100,000 troops in Chu Realm, under house arrest in Zhaohuang Palace, so that his sister and brother could be separated, so that he could contain Gongzi's power in Anyi County.
The twelve beauties couldn't help but think about how powerful the Oriental princess was, but they didn't expect that she was also a sad woman who was repeatedly used and couldn't help herself.
