018 Jumping lotus pond

Ji Baichu's rhetorical question in a few words blocked the words that Lady He had already prepared so that she couldn't say a word.

Obviously, she didn't do anything, but she couldn't say a word to refute it, and Nuguan He bit her lower lip tightly, and her anxiety made her forehead quickly condense into a fine cold sweat.

Originally, the emperor was just watching with an attitude of watching a good show, but at this time, seeing the appearance of the female official He with a weak heart, the emperor's suspicious mind moved.

"Why didn't the female officer speak? Could it be that you are really right? ”

"It's not like that!" Lady He subconsciously retorted, but her mind was spinning rapidly, how could she satisfactorily prevaricate the reason for her disappearance, and hide the matter of the queen communicating with her palace.

However, with this person named Ji Baichu, his battle may not be as smooth as he imagined.

Lady Officer He raised her head and met the emperor's suspicious gaze calmly, "The third princess has always admired the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but she couldn't leave the palace because she was weak, so she sent me out of the palace to buy some gadgets to make a gift to bring back to Nanxueguo." ”

"I waited for the palace to thank the emperor for the grace of the princess, and I happened to meet the queen mother who went to the Yangxin Palace to ask for peace, and then I knew that the princess was trapped in the Luhua Palace, and I hope that the emperor will see everything and give the princess justice!"

After going around, Lady He still didn't change her original intention, and she had to tell Ji Baichu how to be happy.

The emperor seemed to be thinking about the credibility of Lady He's words, and did not speak for a long time.

After a while, he said half-truthfully: "Female Officer He is loyal, and Ji Baichu is also my Great Zhou Dongliang, and I have to give her a fair opportunity to explain." ”

Ji Baichu was not in a hurry to speak, but his eyes were half-closed, as if he was waiting for something.

After waiting for a short time, Prince Yi's unobtrusive Lin Lin, who was dragging the night and not returning home, broke into the Heart Cultivation Hall and knelt down with a plop.

"Your Majesty, the marriage of Nanxue Kingdom is really ill-intentioned, the minister found that Nanxue Kingdom has 50,000 troops stationed ten miles outside the city, and some of them have disguised themselves as ordinary people to blend into the capital, I am afraid that there will be any changes, the minister implores the emperor to immediately detain the three princesses, and the minister is willing to immediately send troops to kill the soldiers of Nanxue Kingdom!"

This major discovery of Prince Yi did not make the emperor furious, but the displeasure in his eyes had a deep meaning, I am afraid that other conspiracies are brewing.

Sure enough, the emperor looked at the female official He who was pale with fright in the center of the main hall, and smiled absently.

"Nanxue Kingdom really values the three princesses, and it is understandable that the army will accompany them. It's just that my Great Zhou Kingdom is safe and secure, and the princess can rest assured in my Great Zhou, so I won't bother the 50,000 troops, since the prince Yi has the heart to share my worries, then I will go to entertain the 50,000 soldiers of the Southern Snow Country outside the city, and do my best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. ”

On the surface, he didn't care, but let Wang Ye Yi secretly deal with that group of restless guys, and the emperor was afraid that he still hadn't finished speaking.

However, the female official He who was kneeling at the bottom was already in a mess, she couldn't figure out the emperor's thoughts, knowing that the emperor was bound to take control of Nanxue Kingdom, and she couldn't find a way to protect herself, and the whole person was like an ant on a hot pot, very tormented.

"Your Majesty." Ji Baichu's voice was gentle, listening to the ears of Lady Officer He, she only felt that the time of death was coming, but she didn't even have the slightest strength to resist.

"I'm afraid that the marriage matter must be decided as soon as possible, so that Lady He can return to Nanxue Country to resume her life, so as not to cause disputes between the two countries."

Nuguan He didn't expect that Ji Baichu not only didn't fall into the well, but also bought her time to live, she couldn't understand this person a little.

The emperor was stunned, "In your opinion, who is more suitable to marry the third princess?" ”

This is not necessarily a simple inquiry, he will not be unaware of the rumors between the prince and the third princess, nor will he be unaware of Rong Heng's rejection of the marriage, but he still knowingly asked.

Ji Baichu hooked his lips and smiled, and said calmly: "The Twelve Princes ......"

"Hongu is unwilling!" Rong Heng didn't dare to listen to the answer he didn't like.

The Emperor frowned tightly, "Why not?" Or does Twelve have other women in mind? ”

Rong Heng was not afraid of angering the emperor, he still raised his head proudly, and said slowly: "Erchen doesn't have a favorite woman, but if she appears, she finds that Erchen already has a pillow person, she will definitely be sad, and Erchen doesn't want her to be sad." ”

Rong Heng is risking his head to fight against the emperor, such nonsense, I am afraid that ordinary people will take the case.

The emperor was strangely lifeless, his expression was in a trance for a moment, and he said: "If the woman you like doesn't appear for the rest of your life, won't you marry for the rest of your life?" ”

"Why not? Erchen can't bear the slightest grievance from the person he loves, and even the slightest possibility is not allowed to appear! ”

Rong Heng looked at the emperor steadily, his eyes dancing with a scorching dark light.

The eyes were too hot, and the emperor suddenly felt that there was a faint trend of revival in some forgotten corner of his heart.

The strange and uneasy movement alerted him, and he was soon pressed down.

The emperor raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, coughed twice, and then instructed Gonggong Zhang to draw up a decree and officially make the third princess and the crown prince a pair.

The queen and the crown prince were naturally very happy, and they were overjoyed to thank them and leave, preparing for the wedding as soon as possible.

Lady He breathed a sigh of relief, and planned to thank her and leave.

"Female official He will stay in the celebrant for the time being, and work with Ji Baichu to organize the wedding of the prince and the third princess, and also give them more time to get along."

After the emperor finished speaking, he didn't give Lady Official He any chance to bargain, so he cleared the scene and drove people away.

Ji Baichu was the first to walk out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and did not wait for Rong Heng and Female Officer He behind.

Rong Heng didn't understand why Ji Baichu was angry, but even so, he didn't regret the decision he made.

Ji Baichu didn't want to see Rong Heng, Rong Heng wanted to explain to Ji Baichu, so he chased after him one after another in the palace.

Rong Heng's martial arts were taught by Ji Baichu, if Ji Baichu wanted to avoid it, he obviously wouldn't give Rong Heng a chance to get close, but Rong Heng also knew how to use his advantages, and he didn't hesitate to risk exposing himself.

Seeing Ji Baichu passing by the lotus pond, he suddenly stopped moving, "Chubai, if you take another step, I will jump from here!" ”

Almost as soon as the words fell, Ji Baichu paused.

She hates people who don't know what to do, and she hates self-righteous threats to her!

The hesitation was only in the blink of an eye, and when she came to her senses, she left faster.

"Puff ——!" The lotus pond splashed up.

Even the female official He, who finally followed behind, was frightened by this accident, and the little father-in-law who still led the way explained habitually: "Female official, don't panic, the twelve princes and the governor often play around like this, don't worry, don't worry." ”

Ji Baichu, "...... Damn it! ”

She had to admit that she had no way to watch Rong Heng see Rong Heng in front of the public, and without thinking about it, she stepped on the tip of the lotus flower, lifted Rong Heng with one hand, wrapped him in his coat, and swept away like a gale, and others only saw an afterimage.

Such a profound martial art seems to have never been revealed, this kind of recognition made Nuguan He's pupils shrink, in the face of such an enemy, she would not even have a chance to win.
