Chapter 123: Princess Changle
Beizhao.
The palace was opened in nine days, and all the nations were crowned with crowns.
Compared with Dawan's, the momentum of the Beizhao Palace is more majestic than that of Dawan, just like the most well-known desert in Beizhao.
The heavy palace doors opened layer by layer in the melodious voice of the eunuchs, resounding in the real ancient Beizhao Palace.
Bichen Palace, the main hall of the monarch of the imperial palace, is smoky at this time, like a fairyland, just standing outside, you can feel the momentum of this palace, which makes people awe in their hearts.
And at this time in the palace, mellow wine, green jade case, golden cup, jade plate, food is picturesque, wine is like a spring, the guqin is rippling, the bell is crisp, the cigarette smoke is misty, the dancing sleeves are fluttering, like the sky is not like the world.
Above the lobby, there is a gorgeous figure in red lying lazily between the golden seats, and it is a beautiful person.
I saw that the person was wearing a crimson dress, which was as long as the ground, and her body was covered with the dark lines of the Howling Sky God Fox, and the yellow cloud belt was worn around her waist, outlining her waistline.
Wearing a crown of emerald phoenixes, the bead curtain that hangs down jingles in the breeze, reflecting the face like a hibiscus, which is extremely gorgeous. A pair of phoenix eyes are charming, but they are impressive, a green silk hangs on the armrest of the golden seat, beautiful and graceful, and the whole person looks arbitrary and luxurious.
This is the power holder of Beizhao, the empress of Beizhao - Liu Xuanying.
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince is back."
The eunuch holding the dust beside him whispered in the ear of the Empress Beizhao.
Liu Xuanying's originally slightly closed phoenix eyes opened slightly, and then she lazily looked at her dankom that was painted like fire, and then raised a sarcastic smile on her lips, and opened her mouth casually,
"I've been to Dawan for so long, and I still think you've been hooked by some Dawan beauty, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back."
His Royal Highness Liu Hetong heard Liu Xuanying say this, and bowed respectfully under His Royal Highness, and then opened his mouth,
"Your Majesty laughed, no matter how gorgeous the Dawan beauty is, it is only a penny of your majesty."
Liu Xuanying sneered, and then slowly sat up from the golden seat, frowned slightly, and waved her hand at the dancers dancing in the center of the hall, signaling these dancers to go down.
The figure that was originally dancing in the hall came to an abrupt end, and the melodious sound of silk and bamboo also fell silent, and the entire hall was instantly quiet.
Liu Xuanying's cold gaze swept behind Liu He Tong, who was standing, and then saw the person standing behind Liu He Tong. Her eyes couldn't help but light up, and then she opened her mouth playfully,
"Isn't this the Lord of Youlian? After leaving Beizhao for ten years, he actually came back. ”
When Youlian heard Liu Xuanying say this, she didn't speak, her lips pursed slightly, and her face looked even more cold.
But out of etiquette, Youlian still bowed respectfully to the people above the main hall.
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you look pretty healthy."
"Huh."
Liu Xuanying sneered, it has been so long, Youlian has not changed her unkind tone at all.
"It seems that in your heart, you still wish you could let Gu die sooner......"
When Youlian heard Liu Xuanying say this, her originally respectful posture became even more respectful, and she said slowly,
"What Your Majesty said, Youlian didn't dare to agree, Youlian was terrified."
"You don't have to pretend there, I know exactly what you're thinking."
Liu Xuanying and the others swept their eyes from Liu Hetong's body quietly, changed their posture and lay back on the golden throne, and the whole person looked extremely scattered.
"You have been away from Beizhao for so long, I heard that you have been staying in the capital of Dawan, for such a long time, Lone can completely identify you as a collaborator and treason, you still dare to return to Beizhao, are you not afraid of Lone's crime?"
Hearing Liu Xuanying say this, Youlian's face did not change, and she said unhurriedly in His Highness,
"My loyalty to Beizhao can be learned from heaven and earth, but if Your Majesty insists on curing my crimes, Youlian has nothing to say."
"Huh, loyalty?"
Liu Xuanying was very disdainful of what Youlian said, and there was contempt in her eyes.
"Lonely, I see that you have left all your loyalty to the general of the Zhenguo named Fu Rin in Dawan."
Youlian's eyes darkened unconsciously, and all of this happened to be seen by Liu Xuanying.
"Youlian knows that she is guilty, and now she is returning to Beizhao to serve the country again."
What Youlian said sounded really loyal, but how could Liu Xuanying be a person who believed the words of others so easily,
After hearing Youlian say this, Liu Xuanying slowly spoke,
"Well, since you said that your loyalty to Beizhao can be learned, then you can prove it to Lone. After so much time, what do you think you can do? ”
Liu Xuanying asked this, Youlian had a few chances in her heart, she suddenly raised her head, looked at Liu Xuanying with burning eyes, her lips opened lightly, and she said word by word,
"I have found Your Majesty's long-lost princess."
As soon as Youlian's words came out, not only Liu Xuanying's face changed, but Liu Hetong beside Youlian was even more shocked.
He looked at Youlian unexpectedly, walking all the way like this, and coming back to Beizhao for thousands of miles, but on the way, Youlian didn't even mention a word about this matter in front of him.
"Youlian, you ....."
Liu Hetong didn't know what Youlian was doing this for, and always felt that Youlian only had her own plans, but what she was planning was not able to see the slightest.
Liu He Tong squinted his eyes and looked at Youlian beside him, but Youlian looked at Liu Xuanying squarely, and didn't pay attention to Liu He Tong beside him at all.
Liu Xuanying slowly got up from her golden seat, looking at Youlian with a cold face, not angry and arrogant, it was really a heavenly style.
"What princess?"
Liu Xuanying was obviously very taboo about this topic, and her tone was even colder, and Youlian could even clearly see the anger in Liu Xuanying's eyes.
When Youlian saw this, she couldn't help but laugh secretly in her heart, and sure enough, this was Liu Xuanying's reverse scale. Just mentioning this matter, Liu Xuanying's face changed.
Youlian had to be secretly proud of herself for holding a weakness of Youlian, this matter is not only able to provide her with a talisman, but also to be able to win a status in front of Liu Xuanying with this, it is simply killing two birds with one stone.
"Naturally, it is the child before His Majesty ascended the throne."
Youlian's words came out, and Liu Hetong beside him couldn't bear it anymore.
"Youlian! Daring! ”
Everyone knows that child is a taboo existence for Liu Xuanying, and the people in the palace are silent about this matter, but Youlian actually dares to mention it in front of Liu Xuanying, it can really be said that she has eaten the gall of a bear heart and a leopard.
Liu Hetong is not afraid of anyone, but only in front of Liu Xuanying will have a trace of awe, Youlian provokes Liu Xuanying so blatantly, he naturally can't bear it.
In the end, it was the person he brought back, but Liu Hetong didn't know about this matter completely, and he was inevitably panicked in his heart.
"Nonsense."
Liu Xuanying narrowed her eyes, and then waved her sleeve angrily,
"That child has already died, where can you see it? It's just a joke. ”
"Your Majesty, you know better than anyone else that the tomb of the eldest princess of Changle has always been a well-dressed mound, and there is no exact statement of where the princess is to this day, how can Your Majesty be sure that the eldest princess is already a monk?"
A smile rose at the corner of Youlian's mouth, and there was no lack of mockery in it.
The eldest princess does have a high status in Beizhao, but it is indeed Liu Xuanying's despisable past, Youlian admires Liu Xuanying's determination very much, and she has not yet broken out.
Youlian couldn't help but think: It seems that in the past ten years, Liu Xuanying's heart has also been tempered a lot, and she has become much quieter.
"You, good."
Liu Xuanying seemed to be a little blocked by Youlian's words, she nested back into her golden throne, and said coldly,
"Then you should tell Lone, where did you get the evidence that the eldest princess was still alive in the world?"
"When I was in Dawan, there was a woman who healed her wounds, and there was a golden lotus dark pattern on her shoulder, presumably this pattern, Your Majesty will not be unfamiliar with it, right?"
When Youlian said this, Liu Xuanying's face completely changed, and she looked at Youlian with an incredulous expression.
"Impossible..... Could it be that my Changle is really alive? ”
"You can't be talking about .....?"
Liu Hetong also came back to his senses from Youlian's words, and looked at Youlian in more and more shock, he really didn't know about this matter completely.
Youlian glanced at Liu Hetong with a deep smile, and did not reply, but instead took out a letter and handed it to the eunuch next to her, and asked the eunuch to hand it to Liu Xuanying.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, there is still a handwritten letter from Gongsun and Mama who originally served by Your Majesty's side."
"Gongsun Mama...."
Liu Xuanying narrowed her eyes, naturally remembering the old man who had served by her side for so long. He has been by his side since he was a child, and when he ascended the throne, he completely left his side and returned to his old age.
The acquaintance who had not seen him for a long time came to him with a letter at this time, and Liu Xuanying's heart was also worried all of a sudden.
She took the letter, and then opened it with a half-hearted look.
The moment she saw the handwriting, Liu Xuanying could see that it was indeed the handwriting of Gongsun Mama.
"Gongsun Mama also met that woman by chance a few days ago, and the golden lotus dark pattern on the woman's shoulder came from Gongsun Mama."
"As the first master of Beizhao sashimi, Mama Gongsun has only one unique copy of each sashimi, and this golden lotus dark pattern happens to be exactly the same as the golden lotus dark pattern on the shoulder of Princess Changle back then, and Mama can naturally recognize it."
"What's that woman's name? Where is it now? ”
Liu Xuanying's hand holding the envelope was trembling, and the iron-blooded empress of the dignified Northern Zhao also showed a soft side that was not easy to see when it came to her own flesh and blood.
"That woman's name is Xia Chutao, and she is now in the General's Mansion in Dawan Town."
