Chapter 6: The Wolf Watching the Tiger

"Seeing that the prince is so satisfied with Princess Wanyang, the palace is also relieved." Luo Xuanran said with a smile, "The first queen is most at ease with the prince, and now that she sees that the prince is about to get married, she can also feel at ease." ”

Luo Xuanran tried hard to make his smile look kind, but Lian Zhi only felt hypocritical when he looked at it. At such a time, isn't Tiwen Zhiyi's deceased mother poking people's hearts?

Wen Zhiyu listened to Luo Xuanran's words, his expression did not change, and he drank a glass of wine as usual: "This wine is good." ”

Wen Xize motioned for the banquet to continue, and the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and everyone began to enjoy the song and dance. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the name of this banquet is to catch the wind, but it deliberately snubbed Lianzhi, so no one will talk to Lianzhi at this time, and Lianzhi is also clean.

It didn't take long for Wen Xize to leave first with the imperial study and excerpts to see, and let the queen stay to preside over the overall situation.

"Princess Wanyang." Hearing the queen shouting herself, Lianzhi knew that there must be no good thing, is this queen too idle, so she will find trouble for herself three times and twice?

"In a few days, the palace is going to hold a chrysanthemum feast, and Princess Wanyang must come when the time comes." Luo Xuanran admonished.

Lianzhi responded: "Since the queen is invited, I will go now." ”

Getting the reply he wanted, Luo Xuanran nodded with satisfaction.

Subsequently, Lianzhi wanted to go out to breathe on the grounds that she had drunk too much wine, and Su Ying helped her out of the Hall of Eternal Life, and the palace maid took the two of them around the Hall of Eternal Life, not daring to go far. But at the turn, the maid was gone.

"Why is that palace maid missing?" Su Ying looked around.

Lianzhi was not surprised: "I guess someone wants to see me." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a woman in a bright yellow palace dress walking over, it was Wen Miqing.

"It turned out to be Princess Miqing." Lianzhi asked, "I don't know if Princess Miqing has anything to tell me alone, not even a palace maid?" ”

Wen Miqing pointed at Su Ying: "You go down first, this palace has something to say." ”

Su Ying glanced at Lianzhi, Lianzhi motioned for her to go down, and Su Ying left.

"Lin Wanyang, you really showed off at the dinner today." Wen Miqing sneered, "Do you really think you can marry the prince smoothly?" A woman from Eastern Xia also wants to become a crown princess, which is really a dream. ”

"If Princess Miqing is here to tell me this, then I have heard it, can I go?"

Lianzhi's attitude made Wen Miqing even more angry: "What are you, I think you are dizzy, what does this princess want to do to you, you don't even have a chance to fight back." ”

Lian Zhi suddenly pushed Wen Miqing to the railing of the corridor, Wen Miqing's entire upper body poked out, and her wine suddenly woke up halfway: "Lin Wanyang, you are crazy." ”

"Wen Miqing, it is the decision of the two countries to let me and pro-Western Chu, if the Emperor Chu hears these words you say now, what do you think he will think? Or do you want to tell me that this rapprochement was originally a trick of your Xichu? ”

Wen Miqing's other half of the wine suddenly woke up, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to say a word, Lianzhi continued: "Princess Miqing, you have to remember that this princess and her relatives are for the peace of Eastern Xia and Western Chu, and it is a righteous move. So no matter how much you are dissatisfied with this princess, you have to hold it back! ”

Lianzhi let go of Wen Miqing, Wen Miqing was so frightened that she hugged the pillar and gasped for breath for a while, she stared at Lianzhi viciously, and then trotted away.

Lianzhi turned around with a blank face and continued to walk forward, but after walking a few steps, he saw a person standing in front of him: "There are really a lot of people looking for me tonight!" I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has anything to teach? ”

Wen Zhiyu walked in front of Lianzhi, it was already dark, only a few palace lamps hanging around emitted a faint light, and the candlelight shone on Lianzhi's face, which seemed to have softened her face a lot.

"I just saw you and Wen Miqing talking, so I can't go over and have to wait for you here." Wen Zhiyu smiled, "Are you still angry?" ”

"Angry?" Lian Zhi asked rhetorically, "If the prince is talking about today's reception banquet, shouldn't I be angry?" ”

"You know I'm not talking about a reception."

Lianzhi sighed, took out a hairpin from his sleeve and handed it to Wen Zhiyu: "Return the hairpin to you." ”

Wen Zhiyu took the hairpin and didn't know what to say. He had contact with Lianzhi in Yunfeng, knew that she was stubborn, and also thought of the situation when Lianzhi found out his identity in the future, but he still didn't tell Lianzhi that he was the prince of Xichu at that time.

"I'm not a fool, you don't hesitate to go to Yunfeng in person, you just don't trust others. Now that I think about it, you must have rushed to Yunfeng without sleep for a few days to save me in time, and then I was injured and rushed back to Xichu overnight, I just heard that you have been sick, and you should have broken your heart for the sake of harmony. Lian Zhi paused, "No matter what, I have to thank you for saving me in Yunfeng." ”

Lian Zhi was angry, but only when she found out that Meng Ling was Wen Zhiyu, she was not a child, so she naturally saw Wen Zhiyu's current situation. Although Wen Zhiyu was born as a prince, his biological mother died, and then Luo Xuanran had a big prince, I am afraid that the big prince would have replaced him a long time ago.

The relationship between the royal family of Western Chu is far more complicated than that of Eastern Xia, and Wen Zhiyu, as the crown prince, is surrounded by wolves, and I am afraid that every step he takes is a matter of thought.

"I don't think you're a princess."

Wen Zhiyu's words made Lianzhi startled: "Why do you say that? ”

"There's no reason, just say it casually, you don't have to take it to heart." Wen Zhiyu replied, "You should hurry back to the Hall of Eternal Life, staying outside for too long will make others suspicious." ”

"Then I'll go first." Lianzhi turned to leave, but at the same time, she was also thinking, did she show any flaws?

After Wen Zhiyu left, Wen Zhiyu looked at the hairpin that came back: "It's really not suitable for you......"

This reception banquet ended at Hai Shi, originally thinking of making Lianzhi ugly, but Lianzhi's performance throughout the game was impeccable, and he was not afraid in the face of all kinds of difficulties, but it made some people who wanted to watch a good show have some admiration for Lianzhi, after all, not anyone can be calm in the face of Emperor Chu.

When Wen Zhiyu left the Hall of Eternal Life, he happened to meet Wen Zhiyan and Wen Zhiyu, and the three of them walked down the steps together.

"Third brother, I heard that Princess Wanyang was in distress in Yunfeng, it was really not easy for her to come this time, you must be kind to Princess Wanyang in the future." Wen Zhiyan was the first to speak.

Wen Zhiyu smiled slightly: "I also heard about Yunfeng, fortunately, Princess Wanyang is fine, but I don't know who did it." ”

"I'm afraid this matter is difficult to investigate, I heard that the regent of Dongxia has been investigating this matter, and Yunfeng is still the boundary of Dongxia in the end." Wen Zhiyu interjected, he was reminding Wen Zhiyu not to meddle in this matter, after all, this matter has nothing to do with Xichu.

Wen Zhiyu glanced at Wen Zhiyu: "I don't think Princess Wanyang herself mentioned this matter, but the two royal brothers were too worried." People who don't know still think that Princess Wanyang and her relatives are one of the two royal brothers, otherwise how could they care so much about Princess Wanyang's Yunfeng in distress? ”

Wen Zhiyu's face stiffened, and Wen Zhiyan was at ease: "You are the prince of Xichu, the future of Xichu, your marriage is naturally important for us as elder brothers, and you don't have to pay too much attention to these little things." ”

"Thank you for your care, I'll go back to the East Palace first, and the two royal brothers will do their best." Wen Zhiyu turned around and left, but Wen Zhiyan and Wen Zhiyu still had to leave the palace and return home.

"Zhiyan." The queen appeared on the steps, she shouted the name of the eldest prince, and Wen Zhiyu retreated first with a very eye-catching look: "Since the queen mother and the eldest brother have something to say, the minister will retire first." ”

Wen Zhiyu walked away, and Luo Xuanran spoke: "This palace is becoming more and more rampant when it comes to seeing the prince. It's a pity that she said this, if she became the queen one step ahead of Su Yu, the current prince would be Wen Zhiyan. But this is nothing, she will definitely make her son the crown prince.

Wen Zhiyan's eyes were dark: "Really?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"My son sees that the third brother's mind is becoming more and more meticulous." Wen Zhiyan explained, "The father is a person who can't hold sand in his eyes, if the third brother is really rampant, I'm afraid my father would have abolished him a long time ago." Queen Mother, haven't you noticed that Wen Zhiyu does everything well, and even his father can't find anything wrong? ”

Luo Xuanran understood what Wen Zhiyan meant: "I didn't expect him to be even more difficult to deal with than Su Yu's slut." ”

"The queen mother speaks carefully!" Wen Zhiyan reminded.

Luo Xuanran nodded: "The queen mother will rely on you in this life, you must not let the queen mother down!" ”

"My son understands." Seeing that Wen Zhiyan never disobeyed, Luo Xuanran left satisfied. Wen Zhi stopped talking, and finally turned around and left the palace.
