Chapter 160

The Great Prince?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

Zhong Shuyu raised his eyebrows, and a hint of deep thought flashed in his eyes.

It seems that the fourth prince is in a worrying situation......

The eldest prince looked embarrassed, glanced at the second prince, and then asked the fourth prince to come and sit next to each other, and smiled apologetically at Zhong Shuyu: "My fourth brother is withdrawn, and he doesn't often come out and walk around on weekdays, so Miss Zhong laughs." ”

Zhong Zhiyu shook his head, then led Labadena to the table of the female dependent, smiled at her comfortingly, and then walked hand in hand with Qin Bairui to the main seat, cleared his throat and prepared to speak.

The visitors were all high-ranking officials who had a little friendship.

The eldest prince was named by the emperor to come instead of him, and the second prince received an invitation, and when he saw that the eldest prince went, he also came.

β€”β€”The two brothers have always had a deep relationship, and they have been in and out together for the most part.

Zhong Zhiyu's gaze swept around the scene lightly, without pausing on anyone's body, and did not make anyone feel uncomfortable: "Today is the day of my wedding with my husband, thank you for coming to congratulate you, and thank you first." ”

Then he and Qin Bairui took the wine glass handed over by Chunhe, drank all the yellow and clear wine inside, and then made an official opening speech.

……

"Please don't be restrained, you must eat and drink well here, otherwise it will spread out and return my Qin Mansion anger."

In the end, Zhong Shuyu made a joke and let the kitchen serve the dishes, and the dinner party officially began.

Wan Jinxiu pulled Zhong Zhuoyu, and asked in wonder while eating: "Isn't there a play to watch, what about the play?" ”

Zhong Zhiyu also picked up the peanuts on the plate and threw them to eat, frowning slightly: "The plan has changed, and the prince didn't come." ”

"Prince?" Wan Jinxiu frowned, and the hand holding the chopsticks paused: "You actually calculated on the prince's head?" You don't want to die. ”

Zhong Zhiyu sighed softly: "When have you ever seen me do something that I am not sure of?" ”

Wan Jinxiu muttered: "...... That's a lot. ”

Zhong Shuyu was stunned, as if he didn't hear it: "I originally wanted to give the prince drunken drugs, and then guide him out when he was unconscious... The truth, so many people can't deny it when they look at it, but they don't want others to come at all. ”

"What truth?" Wan Jinxiu turned her head and looked at her with watery eyes.

Zhong Zhiyu broke her head back: "It's not good for you to know too early, eat well." ”

"Oh." Wan Jinxiu reluctantly agreed, but her heart was restless.

Since she became the ninth princess, I don't know what it's like to be afraid.

Zhong Zhiyu saw through her thoughts at a glance, and gently grabbed a strand of her hair: "Don't mess around with me and you, you will find out in a short time." ”

Wan Jinxiu hurriedly begged for mercy: "Okay, I won't mess around, you have to tell me as soon as possible, otherwise I'm scratching my ears and cheeks in my heart, which is not good for the baby." ”

Zhong Zhiyu's gaze moved down silently, looking at her bulging belly, and her pores opened in fright: "This...... It's going to hurt, right? ”

"It's... I don't know. Wan Jinxiu also stared at her stomach and hesitated: "It's not only painful to hear, but also very dangerous, the biological mother of the fourth prince... It's a difficult birth to talk about when I gave birth to him. ”

When he arrived at the four princes, Zhong Shuyu straightened up and his eyes lit up: "You quickly give me a detailed look at these four princes." ”

"I don't know a lot, I only know that his biological mother is a rough palace maid, eleven years ago our treasury was empty, Beiyi happened to come again, the emperor was so sad that he got drunk, and he went back to favor this palace maid, and then after waking up, he could give her an official woman and forget about it, who knew that ten months later, the fourth prince was born......"

Zhong Zhiyu recalled eleven years ago, when she was exactly ten years old, and after ten months of mental calculation, it would be almost a year, that is, the time when the treasury of Dayu was empty and asked Beiyi for peace, so he understood: "Is there someone who is unknown to the four princes?" ”

Wan Jinxiu nodded, leaned into Zhong Zhiyu's ear and whispered: "It was calculated by Qin Monitoring, he hit the fate and brought the luck of the country." ”

"He's just a newborn son, how can Eunuch Qin talk nonsense casually, this is simply his life." Zhong Zhiyu frowned, his face full of disapproval.

"Not really." Wan Jinxiu also looked pity: "But the ancestors have a system, no matter what happens, they can't kill or depose children under the age of fourteen in the royal family, so he was thrown into the cold palace to fend for himself." ”

"That prince really worked hard." Zhong Shuyu sneered: "He thought that finding a (almost) abolished prince would be considered to humiliate me?" Scold. ”

Wan Jinxiu was frightened and hurriedly looked at whether there was anyone around, and then slapped Zhong Zhuoyu's arm: "Don't be open-mouthed, the prince is the prince of a country, and it is no good for you to offend him......"

"Really?" Zhong Zhiyu raised his eyes, and his eyes were dark: "Then he won't be anymore soon." ”

Wan Jinxiu's heart suddenly burst, and she hurriedly covered her mouth: "You are too careless, how can this kind of thing come out like this, if I get up and mutter immediately, maybe your head will be gone." ”

Zhong Zhiyu took her hand down, and her heart warmed slightly: "Isn't this just in front of you, I can care about it, I'll give you a preventive shot now, and when you go home, I will also give you more boudoir talk with the wine prince." ”

"Bah." Wan Jinxiu scolded with a smile: "Whose boudoir wants to talk about you!" ”

"Isn't that you?"

The two of them laughed, both deliberately skipping the previous events.

It wasn't until the dinner party dispersed and the guests left the house one after another, that Zhong Zhuyu and the wine prince went out with the Markham embroidery left and right.

"Write jade."

Wan Jinxiu had already gotten into the carriage, and she turned around and clenched Zhong Zhuyu's hand uneasily.

"I don't know what you're going to do, but you have to promise me, you have to be hearty."

Zhong Zhiyu gave her a reassuring smile: "Don't worry, I can save it, if something goes wrong, I don't dare to call you to come and watch the play." ”

Wan Jinxiu thought about it in her heart, so she said goodbye to her.

"It's too bad for you to come back, and when I unload the contents of my stomach, we'll catch up with the old days."

Zhong Zhiyu naturally agreed, and after the carriage of the palace left, he was still silently watching the back of them leaving.

But she didn't want a slightly mean female voice to sound behind her: "You and the wine prince's family are better." ”

Zhong Zhiyu turned his head, and sure enough, it was Labadena.

Seeing that Zhong Zhuyu didn't speak, Labadena unconsciously pursed her lips, and felt that she was too pretentious for her daughter's family, so she stomped her feet hard: "If... If you want, I can be a good sister to you. ”

It's over, and my face is already hot.

Zhong Zhiyu looked at her in surprise, as if he had just met her: "Why are you ......?" ”

Labadena pursed her lips, "It's... I think you're still a pretty good person. ”

Someone praised himself, Zhong Zhuoyu naturally accepted all the orders, so he smiled sincerely: "I also think I'm a pretty good person." ”

"It's so thick-skinned."

Labadena, but the corners of her mouth curled more and more: "Then I'll take you as an agreement...... Then if you kill yaks in the future, you have to call me to eat together. ”

Zhong Zhiyu felt funny: "Why are you suddenly so friendly to me, it turns out that you have taken a fancy to my yak." ”

Seeing Zhong Zhiyu's good words, the atmosphere between the two was not as good as before, Labadena raised her chin again, and she didn't know what she was proud of: "I've been here in Dayu for more than three years, and I haven't eaten a decent beef once, but I'm too tired!" ”

As soon as she was like this, Zhong Zhiyu's smile also fell, and she thought of Bei Chuan.

"Be content, if you remain in the grassland...... I'm afraid life isn't so leisurely."

"What do you mean by that?"

Labadena's eyes widened, and for the first time, her perception sharpened: "Is something happening in the steppe?" ”

Zhong Zhuyu glanced at her coyly: "Go in, don't be at the door." ”

So Labadena followed Zhong Zhiyu inside, looking at her with blank eyes.

"My news, the grassland is now divided into five forces, all of which are composed of some middle tribes. The other four forces are at odds with each other, but now they are all cooperating to fight against the Prairie King......"

Labadena's heart tightened, but she still coughed dryly as if her face was hidden, and asked dryly, "What about my father's old thing?" ”

"Your father...... Nature is surrounded by the king of the steppe. Zhong Zhiyu looked at her with some pity: "Your father sent you to Dayu to let you continue to live in peace and worry." ”

"Huh?"

Labadena's mind suddenly went blank and she stammered, "This... How is this possible......"

Zhong Shuyu pushed the hot tea on the table in front of her: "The daughters next to your father have all been married to other neutral or barren tribes, and your only brother Labadji has also married Bei Chuan. These messages are all on the bright side, and you can check them casually. ”

There was too much news of the shock, and Labadena digested it in silence.

Zhong Zhiyu: "Although Rabadeji got what he wanted, Bei Chuan... She didn't want to, just to entrap your father's power, she had no way to ......"

Labadena pursed her lips: "...... Thank you for telling me this. ”

"You're welcome." Zhong Zhiyu blew on the hot tea and took a sip, only to feel that the hot air flowed all the way to the dantian with his throat, and it was comfortably tight.

Then Labadena suddenly stood up and looked at the people around her vigilantly: "You let them all out, I have something to say to you." ”

Zhong Shuyu was stunned, then asked everyone to go down, and asked Chunhe to guard the door, before looking at the solemn Labadena: "You." ”

"I didn't want to talk to you... But you've told me all this... You're really a nice guy... I don't think I can hide it from you......"

Labadena's hands twisted her sleeves tightly, her expression nervous and tangled.

Zhong listened patiently, and then looked at her inquiringly.

Labadena took a deep breath, afraid of being heard, so she said in Beiyi: "The driving force behind the battle of Tongbei Valley...... It's not the crown prince, it's the king of Qi. ”
