Chapter 229: Temptation

Xie Yanhe was suddenly woken up by Wang Qingyun's words.

Her snow-white face instantly had a touch of blood, and Xie Yanhe said in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law, I thought of a person......

The last time Xie Yanhe was in distress on the long street, it was Li Mu who turned the tide, and at the last moment, stopped the crazy horse and saved her from falling to death and being disabled, Xie Yanhe was deeply impressed.

Li Mu is a real righteous gentleman, so he will save himself. And even more because he ...... Until now, I still have a love for myself.

Using such a gentleman, Xie Yanhe felt extremely despicable. But for the sake of her brother, Xie Yanhe is willing to do anything.

"Sister-in-law, do you know Li Mu?"

"Li Mu?" Wang Qingyun muttered.

A bright light suddenly flashed in his mind, and Wang Qingyun was surprised: "Is it the villain who took advantage of people's danger?" The eldest princess picked a husband for you? ”

"Sister-in-law knows?" Xie Yanhe blinked, and his tone was a little stunned: "That's right, it's him." ”

"Your brother split Huang Huali's bookcase with one palm because of this person, how could I not remember. Sister, what are you doing with this villain? ”

Wang Qingyun's eyebrows could not hide their disgust.

"Sister-in-law, it's no wonder that he is sorry for this. On the contrary, it was me, because my grandmother was prejudiced against him. ”

Xie Yan and his eyelashes drooped slightly, and the different colors in the peach blossom eyes flashed.

She made a long story short: "Sister-in-law, I will try to get out of the palace tomorrow, and my sister-in-law will find a way to help me meet Li Mu." ”

"No way!" Wang Qingyun didn't want to stop it.

"You and he used to have a marriage contract, and you are now the queen's honor, if Your Majesty knows about it......"

Although Wang Qingyun is worried about her husband, she will never be selfish enough to put her sister-in-law in danger.

"Sister-in-law, I am in a hurry to follow the power, and I can't care so much." Xie Yan and the two beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and the peach blossom eyes flashed with determination.

She said in a firm tone, "What's more, as long as we act cautiously, we may not be discovered by Your Majesty. Even if Your Majesty finds out afterwards, I have my own arguments. ”

Wang Qingyun still refused to agree: "You are risking your life, I will not agree." ”

"Sister-in-law, do you want me to regret it in the future?" The anger that Wei Zhao might have had no weight compared to his brother's life.

Xie Yanhe believes that Li Mu will be a variable in this war.

"But if I had listened to you, I would have regretted it now." Wang Qingyun said.

Wang Qingyun really treats Xie Yanhe as his half daughter, if he does what Xie Yanhe said, not to mention that her husband is at that level, it is Wang Qingyun herself, and she can't pass this level in her heart.

Xie Yanhe took a deep breath, she thought that it would be a tough battle to persuade Li Mu tomorrow, but she didn't expect that her sister-in-law was the saddest.

Thinking of Zhang Fuming and the crown prince, Xie Yanhe's uneasiness became heavier and heavier, and she slowly said her guess: "Zhang Fuming and His Majesty had a secret conversation in the imperial study for two or three hours, and then the prince came to the imperial study to ask to see him. Sister-in-law, think about it, what will make Your Majesty avoid Wang Xiang and Pei Xiang. ”

Without waiting for Wang Qingyun to answer, Xie Yan and himself said: "Zhang Fuming's forces are in the northwest, Jeju, Yuzhou and other places, but Wang Xiang and Pei Xiang, they both have protΓ©gΓ©s in Shuzhou, which is adjacent to the southwest and is closely related to the situation in Funan. I think that's why, Your Majesty only summoned Zhang Fuming alone. ”

Wang Qingyun has been with Xie Han in the northwest for many years, and even during the war, some official documents were handled by her.

"Sister, you mean...... Your Majesty wants to use troops against Funan? Wang Qingyun said in shock.

Wang Qingyun thought at first that her husband was just sent by His Majesty to Funan to spy on the news, and secretly visited Funan Duan to see if he had a disobedient heart.

But the meaning of my sister's words is clearly that His Majesty wants to use troops against Funan.

The husband's situation will only be more dangerous than she imagined!

"How can it be so sudden? Your Majesty he...... But he has never revealed the meaning of punishing the Duan clan for half a point! ”

Wang Qingyun carefully recalled the movements in the court during this period of time, in addition to His Majesty's order to build a canal, and then to purge the rule of officials, there are ......

Wang Qingyun lost his voice and said: "Last month, bandits were rampant in the Jiangzhe area, and His Majesty ordered the suppression of bandits, is it ...... Is it for military training? ”

"Has my sister-in-law heard of Li Zongtang?"

Xie Yanhe remembered the secret fold that he had inadvertently glanced at on Wei Zhao's imperial case.

That was Wei Zhao's henchman, and on the dense criticism, Li Zongtang was directly commensurate with the words, and there were some close words, not a simple word "read", nor just a reply from the king.

"Li Zongtang, how could I not know? The Li family is a famous family of military generals in this dynasty. Once His Majesty started an incident in the northwest, the puppet emperor Jiao Zhaoqin Wang, on the Jiangnan side, the rebel minister Chen Wei aided the abuse, it was Li Zongtang who killed Chen Wei under the horse, and controlled the situation in Jiangnan with his own strength. With the Li family here, His Majesty can rest easy. ”

Wang Qingyun because her father-in-law and husband are military generals, Jingping Marquis Mansion started with military merits, after Wang Qingyun got married, he did his homework on the family of military generals in this dynasty, and the Li family is the family that Wang Qingyun focuses on.

"If I remember correctly, Your Majesty's great-grandmother is the eldest lady of the Li family. Li Zongtang and His Majesty are still related. ”

"Sister-in-law, since you know so clearly, I won't say much about the Li family. In the past few years, His Majesty seems to have been favored by the Duan clan in Funan, but in fact he is dissatisfied with the Duan clan. The Duan family must have noticed it, so they sent Duan Ning to the capital after Duan Yi's failed attempt to marry Princess Fuqing. is unable to get the position of queen, the position of the four concubines in the palace, Duan Ning can always get it. ”

Therefore, after Xie Yanhe was assassinated, he directly hit Duan Ning with his idea.

This is because Xie Yanhe knows in his heart: In the hands of the prince, if there is no military power for a day, the Xie family will be able to be stable for a day.

What Xie Yanhe can see clearly, the Duan family may not be able to see clearly.

The elder brother Xie Han was transferred to the capital, although it was a promotion, but it was far from the foundation of the Xie family. Even though the elder brother has the two trump cards of Yulinwei and Gyeonggi Daying, it is the emperor who is truly loyal to these people.

Once the crown prince and the Duan clan join forces, then the situation will be completely reversed.

Xie Yan and this queen will become tigers without fangs, and they will only be divided and eaten by the forces of these two sides.

Therefore, Xie Yanhe will "strike first", with the help of the crown princess, he dragged Duan Ning into the water, and used Duan Ning's death to force Duan Yi again, further deepening Wei Zhao's determination to take action against Funan.

Wei Zhao did not investigate the cause of Duan Ning's death at that time, on the one hand, it involved a royal scandal, and on the other hand, he also needed a justifiable reason to take action against Funan, so as to block the mouths of the people in the world.

Xie Yanhe continued: "But because of my appearance, Duan's hopes were once again dashed. Therefore, the Duan family will definitely treat me as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and I will get rid of it quickly! ”

Because of Xie Yanhe's words, Wang Qingyun's heart set off turbulent waves.

In Wang Qingyun's impression, the sister-in-law has been favored since she was a child, and her in-laws, husband, and herself, including the supreme emperor in the world, all treat her as a fragile treasure, holding her in the palm of her hand for fear of falling, and holding it in her mouth for fear of melting.

But the sister-in-law was not spoiled by everyone, although she was arrogant and squeamish, but she was always a gentle and soft cutie, like a pampered cat, occasionally waving her paws, and more often she was lazy.

But such a crystal clear little girl who once allowed herself to look to the end at a glance has grown up unconsciously, and when it comes to the means of intrigue, she is actually a bit of a father and a mother.

Therefore, in the end, it was found out that Duan Ning was the real culprit behind the assassination, and no one suspected it in the Manchu Dynasty. Even Funan Duan was convinced, so he chose to abandon the car to protect the handsome and cost Duan Ning's life. ”

Wang Qingyun couldn't hide her shock at Xie Yanhe's city government.

Whether the prince knew it or not, without his knowledge, because of his sister-in-law's calculations, the prince lost a natural ally.

Although if the prince cooperates with the Duan family, he is seeking the skin of a tiger. But the Duan clan was able to temporarily help the prince get out of the situation that was very unfavorable to him at the moment.

Regarding Wang Qingyun's speculation, Xie Yanhe directly acquiesced.

She turned to Wei Zhao: "The affairs of the military family have been virtual and real since ancient times. His Majesty has been hiding from the Duan clan all these years, in order to be foolproof and hit with one blow. Now, here's the opportunity. ”

"Sister, for so many years, your brother and I have left you alone in Beijing, thank you for your hard work."

Wang Qingyun held Xie Yanhe's hand tightly, tears flashing in her eyes.

If it weren't for the painful lesson, how could the sister-in-law grow up so fast. is surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards, which shows how much she has been wronged.

"Sister-in-law, as long as our family is well, everything is worth it."

Xie Yanhe hid the wetness in his eyes and said in a deep voice.

Wang Qingyun patted Xie Yanhe's hand gently, struggling in his heart, and in a moment, he had already made up his mind.

"The Hou Mansion will be handed over to you to take care of. Yu Xiu and Wei Zhou, I'm not worried; Tao Tao there, you put a little more effort into it...... I personally went to Funan. ”

Hearing this, Xie Yanhe's peach blossom eyes widened in shock, and then he refused without thinking: "No, I will never agree." ”

Without waiting for Wang Qingyun to come up with a set of rhetoric that could convince her, Xie Yanhe took the lead and said: "Sister-in-law, you listen to me." His Majesty summoned Zhang Xiang to meet him, but kept it a secret in order to avoid leaking the news. But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and this matter cannot be hidden for long. What's more, the prince also happened to bump into Zhang Xiang that day. Even if the crown prince can't guess His Majesty's purpose, what about Gu Jiuheng and Huang Weijue? They must be able to guess. If the crown prince and Funan join forces, his brother's situation will only get worse. After all, my brother hasn't shown up in the capital for a long time. ”

"I see what you mean. If I act rashly, it will only deepen the prince's speculation. Duan Yi, the crown prince, each of them wants their husbands to die. ”

Wang Qingyun said, her picturesque face rose a little hideous, and she said sharply: "Funan is a big trouble for Your Majesty, and Kefu Jun is a big trouble for the prince." For Duan Yi, it is possible to regard you as an enemy who killed his sister, and if there is a chance, the two of them will definitely join forces. ”

Wang Qingyun was very sure of Xie Yanhe's guess.

"That's why I thought of using Li Mu to break the game."

Xie Yanhe said with a solemn face: "Sister-in-law, you just listen to me." Right now, Li Mu is the only breakthrough. ”

A five-rank military general from Liaodong has nothing to do with all forces, who would pay attention to such a small person?!

If it weren't for Xie Yan and himself, who were rescued by Li Mu himself, I am afraid that Xie Yanhe would always think that Li Mu was just a nobody, not enough to worry about!

But this person has the courage of the three armies, and he is chivalrous and courageous, and his mind and strategy are not lacking.

Xie Yanhe also knew that he stayed in the capital, on the one hand, because he wanted to marry in the Chengjun Palace, and on the other hand, he was seeking a position in the military department.

"Okay, I'll listen to my sister."

Her husband's life is now hanging by a thread, and in the end, Wang Qingyun's worries about her husband have the upper hand.

If the husband has a case, the queen, the sister, and the Marquis of Jingping, will only end up beheaded after the prince ascends the throne.

Since there is no future, now I can only give it a go!

Xie Yanhe's mouth was dry, and she finally finished her sister-in-law's work, she picked up the tea soup that had been cold, raised her glass and drank it all.

……

After Wei Zhao returned to the Qianyuan Palace, Xie Yanhe immediately greeted him, and without Feng Ying and Kong Siquan doing anything, he personally helped Wei Zhao change into a regular suit.

Wei Zhao took a Meitan green bud with just the right temperature from Xie Yanhe's hand, and after drinking it all, he chuckled: "I'm a little flattered by how Mianmian is so virtuous today." ”

"Am I as ignorant as you say?"

Xie Yanhe was still worried a moment ago, but in front of Wei Zhao, he looked innocent and innocent, with a pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes that were clear and thorough, and his eyes were full of Wei Zhao's figure.

She pursed her red and gorgeous cherry lips slightly, and the lip beads on her lips were more prominent, and the small one was like a cinnabar mole on her heart, which was coveted.

Xie Yanhe knew that this was Wei Zhao's favorite appearance.

Men are powerless to parry every time.

"I said the wrong thing. Sleep is very virtuous. ”

Wei Zhao bowed his head, pecked her red lips lightly, and whispered softly in her ear: "I came back early today, do you want to accompany me to Xianglan Hall to soak in warm soup?" ”

Xianglan Hall is a palace that Wei Zhao specially made to be supervised and repaired before Xie Yanhe entered the palace, not only replaced with a new plaque, but also reintroduced hot spring water from the ground to make a big bath.

Xie Yanhe went with Wei Zhao once, and after seeing the beast-like nature of a man, he refused to go again.

But today, listening to Wei Zhao mention it, she did not oppose it very fiercely as in the past, and refused to agree to it, but nodded shyly and timidly

Even Wei Zhao was stunned for a moment, and once again confirmed with Xie Yanhe: "Really? Is Mianmian really willing? If you agree to me, you are not allowed to repent, otherwise it will be a crime of deception. ”

Wei Zhaosheng was afraid that she would lose her words, and even brought out the momentum of a king.

Xie Yanhe's cheeks were crimson, her snow-white skin seemed to be stained with rouge, her eyes were as soft as spring water, she glared at Wei Zhao hatefully, and said angrily: "Do you believe it or not!" ”

Wei Zhao was excited, and in front of the palace people in the hall, he hugged Xie Yanhe on the spot and walked around the hall a few times.

Xie Yanhe exclaimed, only to feel extremely embarrassed.

If she hadn't begged for something, she would have turned her face with this Meng Lang's man a long time ago.

After dinner, Xie Yanhe left Wei Zhao in the main hall and went to the Xianglan Hall first.

Xie Yanhe asked the mandarin duck to turn out a big red bandeau embroidered with pale pink and lotus flowers, a water-red gauze skirt, and after wearing it, a white and tender belly like snow was revealed in the middle, the skin was carefully smeared with balsam, and a pure gold chain with bells was wrapped around his waist, and the same gold bells were worn on his hands and feet.

Her long satin-like hair hung down at her waist and hips, covered with black light gauze, revealing a pair of sparkling, expectant eyes and a faint red lip.

Covered with a water-red light veil, the white, slender crane-like snow neck, wearing a thin chain of golden bells, a pear-shaped red gemstone just dangling from the snow-white ravine, makes people want to tear off their clothes and find out.

"Stand down." Xie Yanhe sank into the bath sprinkled with flower petals, quietly waiting for Wei Zhao's arrival.

The moonlight is beautiful tonight.

Wei Zhao walked into the hall, guessing in his heart what the little girl was selling.

Wei Zhao still refused to believe that Xie Yanhe would throw himself into the Xianglan Palace, maybe after he went in, she would not be here at all.

As a result, as soon as Wei Zhao entered the main hall, he found that the door of the palace was slowly closing behind him.

Wei Zhao raised her eyebrows, does the little girl want to lock herself here? With her audacity, she may not be able to do such a thing.

With such suspicions, Wei Zhao bypassed the twelve rosewood seat screens in front of him and walked towards the inner hall.

After Wei Zhao came in, he found that the hall was newly furnished. There is a light veil of water red floating everywhere in front of him, and the hall is covered with a snow-white carpet, red candles are burning, and the light of the night pearl is embellished among them.

In the bronze gilt crane two-foot incense burner, there is a long fragrance of ambergris.

Behind the red veil, there was a faint sound of "whooshing and blazing", as if it was being teased by a pair of gentle plain hands.

Wei Zhao's heartstrings moved, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace, brushing away the red yarn fluttering in front of him, and walking in the direction of the soup pool.

In the smoky pool, red rose petals floated, and the woman's gorgeous silky green silk floated on the surface of the water like algae in the lake.

The water-red light veil on her body spread on the water, ambiguously intertwined with her inky hair, which was extremely fragrant.

At this moment, the woman in the water stretched out two thin jade arms, and saw a pair of slender Hao wrists, and the red gold bells on the wrists made a crisp sound of "jingle bell, jingle bell...... A sound seemed to hit people's hearts.

The water-red veil on her arm then slid down to her elbows, revealing skin that was whiter and more delicate than the first snow, and on top of this skin, a magnificent pale pink was steamed by the heat......

Wei Zhao subconsciously held his breath.

It was a coincidence that Xie Yanhe seemed to have a feeling, and turned his head slightly......

The black veil was soaked in the pool water and clattered against her face, making her skin whiter, her eyebrows darker, and her red lips redder......

And her mouth is slightly open at the moment, the look in her peach blossom eyes is innocent and innocent, pure and charming, and the temptation is extreme!

Wei Zhao's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.

Xie Yanhe turned around and slapped his arms heavily on the water......

The water splashed, the petals danced wildly, and she stepped on the white marble steps in the soup pool, and climbed the stairs gracefully.

The red light yarn was soaked in water, clinging to her bumpy figure, and it looked even more steep and slender, and her waist was slender.

Only then did Wei Zhao see Xie Yanhe's dress clearly.

Covered in black light gauze, her body was covered in water red, and the scenery on her chest was unobstructed after the thin fabric was soaked with water.

The bells hanging on his body and waist refer to the dress of the orchids of the Western Regions, and on those orchids, they are too enthusiastic and public.

Wearing it on the body of the woman in front of her, it is like flying in the sky on a mural, floating out of the dust, high and holy. And the ruby pendant hanging on her chest instantly pulled the goddess into the mortal dust, dyed with the charm and temptation of ecstasy, like a fairy and a demon, which is fascinating......

Wei Zhao's heart beat like a drum, and a pair of dark eyes that were as cold as a pool of ink were even more ablazing, and the heat in them seemed to be able to burn everything in the world to ashes......

The aggression in the man's eyes was too obvious, as if he was going to tear himself apart inch by inch, and then devour his lower stomach, chewing not even the bones left!

Xie Yanhe's heart instantly gave birth to a sense of retreat, which made her want to run away in the eyes of men.

However, her concern for her brother made her only have the courage to continue her plan.

Xie Yanhe flew like a colorful butterfly dancing among the flowers, and flew to Wei Zhao's side.

She stopped half a step away from the man, a pair of white jade arms were on Wei Zhao's shoulders, her sweet voice was sandy and soft, she bit her red lips lightly, like a seductive goblin, half looked up at her beautiful face, and called softly: "Uncle......"

This salutation, with endless ambiguity and lingering, and even a hint of kuai feeling of breaking through the taboo, Wei Zhao deeply felt as if his soul was trembling silently.

He raised his fingers, stroked the slender jade neck of the woman in front of him with the calloused fingertips, and picked up the thin chain she was wearing on her snow neck, "Ding Ling Ling Ling", the small bell made a crisp sound, and the gorgeous ruby pendant shook in that softness.

Xie Yanhe's skin felt a trembling feeling, and her delicate body trembled suddenly.

Wei Zhao violently hugged her into his arms, locking the woman's soft and boneless delicate body in his hot chest.

"Call me what?" Wei Zhaoshun kissed the skin on her snow neck and asked ambiguously.

Xie Yanhe struggled lightly in the man's arms, the tip of his dexterous tongue slid across the man's Adam's apple, and said softly: "Uncle......"

Wei Zhao's heart exploded in his chest in an instant......
