Chapter Forty-Eight: Plan Ahead

The eldest prince of Beidi, Wan Yan Ba, and this county lord actually have a marriage contract, Qin Yunuan listened carefully, but although this coincidence is coincidental, it is not surprising, in addition to Wan Yan Ba's violent character, the family background of the two is back. Jing, appearance and identity are very compatible, it seems that today's Western Xia is no longer what it used to be, and it is actually going to the road of harmony with neighboring countries.

"Mengzhu, shut up" Mu Qingyu frowned slightly, and the two willow eyebrows squeezed out a shallow ravine, "Can such a thing be said everywhere by your lips?" Now that the decree has not yet been decided, don't speculate. ”

The woman in red pouted angrily, full of grievances, twisted her body and hid behind Mu Qingyu, Mu Qingyu looked up at Qin Yunuan, Qin Yunuan just smiled faintly: "I heard that the emperor has been sick recently, and it is estimated that he will not be in a hurry for a while, so the county lord doesn't have to worry too much." ”

Mu Qingyu nodded and echoed: "The one who should come will always come, and I won't change anything, not to mention that a heavenly master has recently come to the palace, and he has developed a lot of life-saving elixirs for the emperor, and the emperor's body and bones are much better, and he will personally attend the palace banquet in two days." ”

Faintly, Qin Yunuan found out the physical condition of the current Western Xia Emperor Jing Donghua.

Qin Yunuan bowed slightly: "This Heavenly Master is really powerful, and it is not easy for people who can find him to come to heal." ”

"That's natural," the girl in red couldn't wait to say, "That's our Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Western Xia, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not as good at being flexible as the old thirteen, but he has a heart for the emperor, which is really ...... than those wolf-hearted people." ”

"Dream Bamboo!" Mu Qingyu scolded the girl in red fiercely, she seemed to be weak in appearance, she actually had such a strict time, which really made people a little uncomfortable, "You are really getting more and more bold, vainly commenting on the courtiers and princes, is it also what you can do as a lady?" ”

"Cousin." The woman in red rubbed beside Mu Qingyu.

"We've stayed here long enough, it's time for General Leng and Mrs. Leng to rest and leave." Mu Qingyu didn't stay long, and when he left, the servants and guards also left, and the courtyard suddenly became extremely quiet, as if there had never been the dispute just now.

Back in the room, Qin Yunuan watched Leng Changxi put the baby spear on the weapon rack, the black lacquered weapon rack and the cold and shining spear complemented each other, Leng Changxi turned around, Qin Yunuan just thought about something, and said: "This Mu Qingyu Mu County Lord will scold the woman in red for not knowing etiquette when the girl in red repeatedly mentions marriage, but why, when I asked about the recent situation of the Emperor of Western Xia, she took the initiative to tell me so much, is this in line with etiquette?" As a lady who knows how to measure, the royal lord of the county family, he can't talk about the emperor's recent situation, let alone a person like Lord Mu who is self-denying? ”

"You think she's hinting at you?"

"If you think about the adjectives of Lord Mu carefully, the heavenly master developed a life-saving elixir for the emperor, it can be seen that the emperor was terminally ill before, and his life was hanging by a thread, but now, he was suddenly able to attend the banquet, and he jumped too fast in the middle, I remember that Doctor Sun once taught me that the ward is like a mountain, and the illness is like a thread, this is the norm, but anything that can make people get better quickly is another poison;

。 Qin Yunuan thought about it, and his fingers knocked on the edge of the coffee table, making a clattering sound.

"You mean, there is a problem with the Heavenly Master?" Leng Changxi paused slightly, and added, "Or, is there a problem with the prince?" ”

"The problem may not be with them" Qin Yunuan looked at the eldest princess in the opposite room through the half-open window lattice, the eldest princess at this time was waiting by Xing'er to untie her hair and prepare for a nap, recently because of her good birth, the eldest princess had long thought that she was not the wild woman who was in the Savage Valley before.

Today's eldest princess, with pink cherry lips, two sunset-like crimson flowers on her cheeks, and her skin has become fair and delicate, plus she has an excellent foundation before, ignoring the traces left by the years on the eldest princess, she still has the demeanor of the first beauty in Daqi.

"We can't wait until the banquet in two days to let the eldest princess and the emperor meet, and everything will be unpredictable at that time."

Leng Changxi nodded, if Xing'er found out that the eldest princess's forgetfulness had lost its effect, she would definitely remind Jing Yuanchu to start in advance.

"Lu Wuyi left me a few antidotes when he left, I think we should act quickly." Lu Wuyi is the person who Jing Yuanchu "picked up" from the road, and he must have returned to the Emperor's Mansion at the beginning of Jing Yuanchu, but I don't know what the outcome will be, for a person like Lu Wuyi who regards friendship as incomparably weak, Qin Yunuan doesn't want to care more, maybe Lu Wuyi once really cared about someone, that is his self-confessed master Su Chenghai, but in the end, he still adhered to the purpose of revenge or enjoyed himself by Sima Rui's side, and the word revenge was left behind early.

Leng Changxi also felt that he couldn't drag on at this time, but Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi were only two people, at best, plus Acha and the other four, it was difficult to move an inch, and if you want to act, you must have a helper, at this time, Leng Changxi thought of a person.

In the middle of the night, Xiliang City fell into a quiet and peaceful darkness, and every family had rested, except for those benefactor prostitutes in Fengyue Field.

In a large courtyard in the middle of the city, only one of the chic daughter's boudoirs was still lit by stars, and under the candlelight, a woman with a beautiful face was copying the scriptures with her head sideways, and it could be seen that she was a little sleepy, and her eyelids were no longer enough to support her to continue reading, and she struggled to support her heavy head with her elbows, and the handwriting in front of her eyes began to blur.

The maid came in once, poured a cup of strong tea for the young lady who was seriously copying the scriptures, and carefully persuaded her: "The county lord, always drink strong tea in the middle of the night, I am afraid that it will hurt her body, if the old lady knows that the county lord is so hard to copy the scriptures for her, she will also feel distressed." ”

"I see, if you're tired, go down first." The person known as the county lord sent this maid away, stretched a lazy waist, and slowly walked to the window, outside it was the time when the moon stars were scarce and the moonlight was sultry, but the county lord silently closed the window, turned around leisurely, and said seemingly unintentionally: "Since General Leng has come, why don't you show up?" ”

There was no sound in the room, but there was a person in front of him.

Leng Changxi was dressed in a black night robe, and he still had the silver mask on his face, since he left Daqi, this silver mask had never left him, but fortunately, everyone knew that the original Leng Changxi liked to wear masks, and he didn't think much about it.

Leng Changxi arched his hand and said politely: "Breaking into the county lord's boudoir in the middle of the night, there are faux pas, please forgive the county lord;

。 ”

"General Leng came rashly in the middle of the night, there must be something important, you might as well say it directly." Mu Qingyu got straight to the point. Because she copied scriptures late at night, she was still dressed in white during the day, and there was nothing wrong with seeing each other in regular clothes, but it was rare that Mu Qingyu, who had always obeyed the rules, actually accepted Leng Changxi's appearance calmly.

"I want to ask the county lord for one thing."

Mu Qingyu smiled and motioned for Leng Changxi to continue.

"I know that the county lord has a prominent background, a noble status, and a waist card given by the emperor that you can enter and leave the palace at will, and I also ask the county lord to make it convenient, and when I visit the emperor tomorrow, I will bring someone in with me."

"I know" Mu Qingyu raised her head slightly, "It's your mother, the eldest princess, right." ”

Leng Changxi arched his hand: "The county lord is really clever. ”

"Heh" Mu Qingyu shook his head, "It's not that I'm clever, but a normal person wouldn't entrust all his hopes to Jing Yuanchu, in front of the people, he is a loyal and kind prince, in front of the courtiers, he is a promising hero, in front of the emperor, he is the most competitive son, if it weren't for the strict regulations on the position of the prince in Western Xia, the eldest son is the biggest, otherwise, I'm afraid that the emperor would have passed the crown prince to Jing Yuanchu a long time ago." ”

Mu Qingyu glanced at Leng Changxi and continued: "However, only those of us who have really fought with Jing Yuanchu in private know how disgusting, how obscene, and how ...... he is. ”

The more Mu Qingyu spoke, the more emotional she became, and she unconsciously spit out countless words cursing Jing Yuanchu in her mouth, this phenomenon made Leng Changxi pay extra attention, Leng Changxi squinted slightly, and he used the method that Qin Yunuan taught him to carefully observe every expression on Mu Qingyu's face.

"I'm sorry, I lost my words."

"It's okay." Leng Changxi smiled indifferently, at this time, he could already conclude that Jing Yuanchu and Mu Qingyu definitely had something to do with each other, and it was emotional, which was good news for him.

"Your people, I'll bring them for you." Mu Qingyu looked at Leng Changxi and said, "Just because you saved my life when I was a child, I clearly know that when I was twelve years old when I went to Daqi with my father, at the shooting range, the bow and arrow that shot at me was not a mistake by the soldiers, Leng Changxi, I know very well, I am very grateful to you for saving me, and I also wanted to marry you with all my heart, so I let my father make such a rude request, but I understand now, I am no longer worthy of you." ”

"County Lord." Leng Changxi looked at Mu Qingyu and became sad inexplicably, he didn't know how to persuade her. ’

"You don't have to persuade me" Mu Qingyu raised his head to stop the tears in his eyes from falling, "We were born in the royal family, there are always some things that we can't help ourselves, such as life, such as marriage, I know that you already have a wife, and you love her very much, in fact, our fate is very shallow, but it was only three months, there is nothing to be nostalgic about, you don't have to worry." ”

Leng Changxi didn't say much, he only hugged his fists again: "Thank you county lord, Changxi farewell." ”

Mu Qingyu watched Leng Changxi leave, and just smiled slightly. When Leng Changxi was leaving, he suddenly turned around and said to Mu Qingyu with great certainty: "Please rest assured, the county lord does not need to marry Beidi far away." With that, he left without looking back.

Only Mu Qingyu was left muttering: "Yes, I don't marry Beidi, but I can't marry you either, what's the use?" ”
