King Ning? To the eldest princess?

Qin Yunuan frowned, she never thought that the woman that King Ning, who was now more fond of Princess Ning, was actually the eldest princess.

Sima Qiu continued: "The world only knows that at that time, the eldest princess and her team's team just walked to the Niutouling at the junction of Western Xia and Daqi and encountered the captivity of thieves, and the team suffered heavy casualties, and even the eldest princess herself was missing, King Ning searched for several months within a radius of fifty miles, and the emperor also sent an army to search, and even the Western Xia, which has always been arrogant, also increased the search manpower, but never found it. ”

When Sima Qiu said this, he smiled slightly: "Doesn't anyone think it's strange?" Niutouling is just a few hills, and the three parties searched day and night but found nothing. ”

"Did someone deliberately hide the eldest princess?" Qin Yunuan boldly guessed, although it was rumored among the people that the eldest princess must have fallen to a cliff, and there were no bones, so she couldn't find it.

"Lord Pingjun is really smart." Sima Qiu nodded and said, "At that time, the person who hid the eldest princess was none other than Jing Donghua, the crown prince at that time and the current monarch of the Western Xia Kingdom. ”

"Why?" Qin Yunuan was puzzled, the eldest princess and Jing Donghua had never met at that time, and there was no stake, and the eldest princess was going to marry the old emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom at that time, so she was Jing Donghua's father's woman.

Sima Qiu snorted lightly: "Doesn't Lord Pingjun know? A man is willing to deceive his father and gamble on his future for a woman, for no more than two reasons, either this woman has greater interests, or he is madly in love with this woman. ”

Qin Yunan raised her eyebrows, she had already guessed that Jing Donghua must be the latter for the eldest princess.

"And then?"

Sima Qiu paused and drank. Cha, continued: "This thing came cleverly, at that time the Western Xia was in the Qianyuan Rebellion, the first year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, the old emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom died, the three sons seized the heir, for the throne, Jing Donghua and his two brothers met in the capital, and had a three-month confrontation, and at this time, the eldest princess was finally found by King Ning, who had been struggling to pursue her whereabouts, and was taken back to the palace. ”

"Are you sure?" Qin Yunuan raised his voice, "This folk are all rumors that the eldest princess has died in Western Xia, and since she has found it, why don't you tell the world the good news?" ”

"Because she was pregnant." Leng Changxi suddenly spoke, in fact, he had already found out about what happened twenty-three years ago, but he couldn't say it as carefully and in detail as Sima Qiu.

"Yes" Sima Qiu continued, "The proudest eldest princess of Daqi, dignified and elegant, extremely noble, disappeared for no reason but inexplicably conceived a wild seed back, if this is known to the world, not to mention that the royal family of Daqi is not guaranteed, this can not be explained to the Western Xia Kingdom, but at that time, no one knew that the so-called wild seed in the stomach was the bloodline of Jing Donghua, the monarch of the Western Xia Kingdom, and the eldest princess of the Great Qi, which was extremely noble. Sima Qiu shook his head and sighed as he spoke, subconsciously currying favor with Leng Changxi;

Leng Changxi was silent, there was no change on his face, and he snorted. Cha said lightly: "Since no one knows, how do you know?" ”

Sima Qiu lowered his head: "Didn't I say it?" My mother and the eldest princess are good friends and talk about everything. ”

Leng Changxi raised his head silently, and his eagle-like gaze was firmly nailed to Sima Qiu's body: "Seventh Prince, my patience for lies is zero, don't challenge at will." ”

Yes, even Qin Yunuan clearly knows that such palace secrets that only the emperor and the empress dowager know, no matter how much the lady concubine is favored by the emperor, it is impossible for her to come into contact with the eldest princess who is so well protected.

Sima Qiu sighed, and his momentum suddenly weakened: "I said, my hearing is beyond ordinary people, at that time, the palace of the mother concubine was adjacent to Weiyang Palace, I could often hear the crying of women in the middle of the night, the palace maids and eunuchs thought it was a ghost who died unjustly in the palace at first, and invited a lot of Taoist priests to do it, not letting me go out in the middle of the night, and then I followed the crying to find out, only to find that the eldest princess who had died in Western Xia in people's mouths actually sobbed alone in the middle of the night in Weiyang Palace, and the names in their mouths were all 'Donghua'. ”

After Sima Qiu finished speaking, he sighed infinitely, but Leng Changxi's face suddenly condensed into a piece of ice, Qin Yunuan quietly pulled his hand under the table, but only heard Leng Changxi's cold words: "You go out." ”

Sima Qiu was stunned for a moment, didn't say much, got up and wanted to leave, Qin Yunuan sighed softly, thinking that Leng Changxi must be alone at this time, Fang wanted to get up, but was pulled by Leng Changxi violently and fell into his arms, Leng Changxi's mask didn't know when it was taken off again, the cold and weakened chin was against Qin Yunuan's thin shoulders, and the corners of his lips kissed Qin Yunuan's white neck shallowly.

Qin Yunuan didn't know how to comfort Leng Changxi, so she could only raise her hand, slowly, stroking Leng Changxi's back, and said, "I'm here." ”

In vain, she thought that Leng Changxi was just lamenting her life experience, but Leng Changxi raised his head and just sighed affectionately: "When I was away, my mother must have suffered a lot." ”

Yes, Leng Changxi was ten years old when the Weiyang Palace fired, but he has been living as the son-in-law of Ning Wangfu, and has never seen his biological mother, Princess Qinghe.

So Princess Ning......

Qin Yunuan's eyes were full of questions, Leng Changxi instantly understood, and explained: "I was carried back to the house by my father, from the beginning my mother knew that I was not her biological son, and she didn't even know where I came from. ”

When he said the last sentence, Leng Changxi's tone was extremely light, as if he had feelings for Princess Ning, but more, there was a trace of doubt.

This reminded Qin Yunuan of what Concubine Cao said to her when she left, saying that in fact, Princess Ning was a stone girl, and from the beginning of her pregnancy to her miscarriage, she was to frame Concubine Cao, Princess Ning, what kind of person is she, if she wants to harm Leng Changxi, why did she have to be carefully raised for so many years?

Still is......

Qin Yu's heart tightened, could it be that Princess Ning was just trying to harm herself?

"What do you think?" Leng Changxi picked up Qin Yunuan's chin, making Qin Yunuan's big watery eyes only stare at him.

"Nothing;

。 Qin Yunuan smiled slightly, suddenly hugged Leng Changxi, and said softly, "We should go back." ”

When he went out, Sima Qiu was still waiting outside, Leng Changxi glanced at him indifferently, did not give him an exact answer, and only said: "If you want to cooperate, you can, just let me see first, what else can you do to be useful besides eavesdropping with your ears." ”

For Sima Qiu, Leng Changxi did not refuse, which was the first step to his success.

When he returned to King Ning's Mansion, it was already dawning, because he was escorted by the shadow guards to enter through the back door, so except for a few intimate maids in the courtyard, no one knew that Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi had gone out.

Counting the hour, it was almost time to say goodbye to Princess Ning, and the two of them didn't feel sleepy, after freshening up, they changed their clothes and left the courtyard gate early, heading towards Princess Ning's twilight residence.

Along the way, Qin Yunuan rarely spoke, and Leng Changxi kept holding her hand tightly and never let go.

As soon as the two of them entered the courtyard, they happened to hear the housekeepers reprimanding the two of them who were doing things under their hands: "I said you, how do you do things?" This Concubine Cao has been gone for so long, and she also placed this green begonia in Princess Ning's courtyard, didn't she make Princess Ning unhappy in vain? Pull it down! Pull it down! ”

Concubine Cao loved green begonias the most when she was alive, and she even put on a begonia flower banquet before she died, so it's no wonder that this housekeeper will avoid it.

"Wait" Qin Yunuan suddenly stepped forward to interrupt the reprimand of the grandmother, and looked at a pot of green begonias carried by the two little guys, the soil in the tile pot is darker than the other soil in this yard, and the mud used to raise green begonias is used, "This soil is changed every few days?" ”

When the housekeeper saw that it was Qin Yunuan, she immediately bowed over with a hippie smile and explained: "Yo, you don't know about the third young grandmother, this green begonia is delicate, and the mud here can neither be changed more, nor can it not be changed, no more, no less, exactly every fifteen days." ”

Fifteen days...... Qin Yunuan pondered carefully: "Okay, you go down first, since you know that the mother concubine will be upset when she sees this, don't put it in the courtyard." ”

Seeing that this grandmother and the little maid walked away, the events of fifteen days ago appeared in front of Qin Yunuan's eyes one by one.

"What's wrong?" Leng Changxi asked.

Qin Yunuan frowned, lowered his voice and said: "I remember that the eldest prince once said that the reason why he guessed that those assassins would do something to the emperor was because the soles of their feet were stained with mud for cultivating green begonias, and only Yongchang Palace had green begonias in the palace, but we ignored a detail. ”

Leng Changxi gasped and slowly spit out: "That is, in fact, there are also green begonias in King Ning's Mansion, and fifteen days ago, it happened to be a few days before the emperor's assassination. ”

Qin Yunuan nodded, and at this time, the maid Qingzhu beside Princess Ning came over to report, saying that Princess Ning had already gotten up, and that the second young grandmother Qin Yuwan was also here, and it seemed that there was some good news.

Entering the house, Qin Yuwan really arrived early, her smile was completely gone, and the embarrassment of the last time she was out of shape at the banquet, as soon as Princess Ning saw Qin Yunuan, she stretched her smile gently, pointed at Qin Yuwan and said, "Come on, come on, your second sister has good news." ”

"Oh?" Qin Yunuan sat down sideways, and heard Qin Yuwan's charming and sharp voice: "Yes, third sister, I am pregnant." ”
