"No, what if you trick me with fake medicine?"

"Then give half of the news first, you take the antidote and get better, and then give the other half."

"Okay."

The Loyal and Brave Mansion in the dark night is like a sleeping beast, lazy and cold. While secretly scolding the arrogant Ye Lian in his heart, the man in black quietly avoided a team of guards on duty at night, jumped out of the high courtyard wall, and didn't notice that there were two people standing in the corner of the wall where the night was thickest.

Chen Shengsheng lowered his head, not daring to look at the face of the prince Tieqing, although he had already guessed that the princess was strange, and even started to investigate, but now that he saw the princess's secret meeting with the man in black, he was still so shocked that his eyes were about to fall out.

No wonder, people say that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, his wife is a peasant girl set for him by his parents since he was a child, he has always disliked his wife for being vulgar and does not understand poetry, but at this time he felt for the first time that vulgarity has the benefit of vulgarity, at least she will not betray herself, she will not hook up with others, what about a woman like the princess who is proficient in poetry and writing, but more vicious and selfish......

"Go back first, and be cautious about today."

I don't know if the wind at night is too cold, Chen Sheng only felt that the words spit out by his prince turned into ice bumps, which made his waist bend even more, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, Lord Wang, my subordinates understand." ”

As he spoke, he quietly withdrew. When the guard on duty heard the movement, he had to come forward to inquire, but he pulled it away, and if he angered the prince at this time, he would definitely be blown to pieces.

Zuo Yuanhao stared deeply at those glass lamps for a long time, and his heart was overturned, and he was extremely angry.

I remember that when he was five years old, several small countries in southern Xinjiang came to the capital to pay tribute, and the imperial brother was very busy, so it was much lighter to take care of him, he didn't want to sit and study, so he ran to the harem to play with the palace maids and grandmothers on his back.

As a result, I accidentally bumped into a particularly pampered concubine of the imperial brother who was punishing the palace maid for some reason, and the concubine had bright red nails, grabbed a long whip, and beat the palace maid covered in blood. He hid under the bushes, watching the half-dead palace maid being dragged down, leaving a long mark on the bluestone slab, and he couldn't stop vomiting for a long time.

Although he grew up in the future, he was no longer timid, and even killed countless enemies on the battlefield, but instinctively he was very disgusted with the domineering woman who wielded the whip, so that whenever he saw Sister Ye Lan Ye Lian, he always unconsciously spoke ill of the brutal Ye Lan, and took pity on the poor Ye Lian, and finally insisted on quitting his relatives and marrying Ye Lian into the house.

It's a pity that today he realized that what he saw with his eyes was not necessarily true.

The brutal Ye Lan saved his life, gave birth to children for him, and even gave his life.

The pitiful Ye Lian betrayed him and killed tens of thousands of lives in the vanguard army, no matter what the reason, it can't be forgiven!

On the old tree not far away, two jackdaws lying in their nests talking at night secretly looked at the man who had been blowing the cold wind for a long time, looked at each other and fell asleep. I don't know who offended that person, I'm afraid it will definitely not end well.

Ye Lian, who has also slept soundly, is smiling at the corners of her mouth, dreaming, in the dream she detoxified, and pregnant with the prince's child, the prince was depressed because of the defeat, she comforted her husband, raised the child, and was praised by the entire capital for being virtuous......

The fastest in the world has always been the grapevine.

10,000 vanguard troops were besieged and killed, such a major event The court didn't want to hide it from the top and bottom at all, after all, it was 10,000 lives, and I don't know how many people wanted to raise white flags, and the cry shook the sky, even if they wanted to, they couldn't hide it.

But the officials of the DPRK and China are not fools, they are miserable and have no countermeasures to sit in the city, I don't know how many people have been sent out, teahouses and restaurants often slap the table and scold the Shaluo people and the strong men of the western Xinjiang barbarians, and finally shout to be soldiers to kill the enemy, protect the family and defend the country, which attracted many people to applaud, and soon some merchants took the initiative to jump out, donate money and materials, and support the imperial court to resist foreign enemies.

For a while, the entire Jinghai was like a huge machine that was launched, turning rapidly, and the Zhongyong Wangfu was the core of the entire machine, and everyone was staring at it, looking forward to the invincible generals in their minds going out again and killing the Quartet.

On this day, the military report of the Shaluo people knocked on the pass was rushed to the capital for 800 miles, and the emperor issued a decree to appoint the Zhongyong King as the generalissimo of the resistance to the enemy, and set out on a certain day.

The six departments of the imperial court, from the elders to the junior officials, were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground, for fear of delaying the Northern Expedition, and they became public enemies up and down the Jinghai Sea.

Then, there was one person in the Zhongyong Palace, who was more anxious than everyone else, and that was Ye Lian.

In the confrontation with the man in black that day, she had the upper hand proudly, and the important lists and troop distribution maps she said were like snacks on a plate, and she wanted to reach out and get them, but in fact, she tried her best in the past few days, but she couldn't even step into the study, and she didn't dare to act too obviously, for fear of arousing the suspicion of others.

Seeing that it was time to trade in the evening, she gritted her teeth and had to take the risk.

The guards who were responsible for guarding the study were actually miserable, a few days ago, I don't know why, they were each fined ten taels of silver by the captain, and when they were not on duty, they had to be driven by whips to practice martial arts, but they could still take a breath when they were on duty.

But the hostess of this palace doesn't know what's wrong, she will send soup today, clothes, shoes and socks tomorrow, and she can't wait to cut her head and want to enter the study, they will be scolded if they stop it, and they will be punished if they don't stop it, which is really a dilemma.

At this moment, as soon as she saw Ye Lian holding the maid's hand, Tingting came over again, and the four guards guarding both sides of the door immediately made bitter faces, glanced at each other, lowered their heads in unison, and made up their minds to pretend to be dead to the end.

However, they didn't expect that Ye Lian walked to the door and didn't say a word, but she actually fainted.

The maid exclaimed, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you? ”

The four guards were also taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and then separated the two and stepped forward to ask, "Niangniang, what's wrong?" The prince is not in the house, but do you want to find Chief Administrator Hong to ask for a doctor? ”

The maid was also a pungent one, and she scolded as soon as her eyebrows were raised, "You idiots, don't you have long eyes?" The mother has fainted, how can she not find a doctor? Hurry up and go to Manager Hong separately and invite a few more imperial doctors to come back!" ”

"Hey, yes, we'll be right away." The two guards secretly said that they were in trouble, but they still turned around and explained to the two brothers and hurried away.

The remaining two guards saw that the maid was struggling to support the princess alone, and wanted to step forward to help, but felt that men and women could not kiss, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

The maid's face turned red from exhaustion, and she scolded again: "You two fools, don't you know how to find a soft chair to carry the mother back to the backyard?" In case the mother is pregnant with a little master in her belly and lies on the ground and catches a cold, can you afford it? ”

The two guards were a little hesitant and unwilling to leave their posts without permission, but seeing that Ye Lian's face was as pale as paper, they were a little afraid that they would really kill the little master of the palace because of their relationship.

The maid was still scolding when she saw this, but she didn't want Chen Sheng to hurriedly come over from under the verandah, and when she had to ask what was going on, he immediately scolded the two guards-

"You two have dog brains, if the mother has a good one, she can't afford to kill you. Hurry up and look for a soft chair, I'm guarding it here. ”

The two guards were greatly relieved to hear him say this, and trotted out to find the soft chair.

Only then did Chen Sheng turn around and look at the maid with a smile, "This sister, is it okay to deal with it like this?" ”

The maid thought that Chen Sheng was another one who wanted to please the hostess, so she rolled her eyes disdainfully and said, "Count your acquaintance, hurry up and open the door, and I'll help the lady go in to rest." It's cool here, and if you wait for the soft chair to come back, I'm afraid that the mother will have a headache. ”

Chen Sheng's face hesitated for a moment, but finally opened the door.

The maid was overjoyed, and Ye Lian seemed to be dizzy, but her feet stepped into the threshold very neatly.

Chen Sheng looked at the door that was closed again, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth deepened. There are many barriers in the world, but some of them are absolutely impossible, because it is not a path to glory and wealth, but a hell and a yellow spring......

I don't know what went wrong, after a full two quarters of an hour, the two guards carried the soft chair over, Ye Lian, who had already been awake, sat down with the support of the maid, waved her hand "weakly", and said lazily: "I've bothered a few guards, and each person will be rewarded with two taels of silver." ”

"Xie Niangniang!" The two guards who went to find the soft chair were tired and sweaty, but they were grateful when they heard the words, their own prince was really bright-eyed, and he chose a good princess, and he was more sympathetic to his subordinates.

Soon, Gonggong Hong also took the imperial doctor into the mansion, and after the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated, he only said that the princess was a little weak, not pregnant.

Several guards heard the news, and they were still a little regretful, only Chen Sheng was holding two taels of silver in his hand, and he smiled mysteriously.

"Bang!" With a bang, Ye Lian didn't care if smashing the tea bowl at midnight would cause others to be alarmed, she was so annoyed that she just wanted to kill people for a while.

"I said yes that day, I will only give half of the news tonight, if the antidote is effective, I will give you the other half of the news, you actually don't keep your promise?"

The man in black played with the other tea bowl with both hands, and his eyes were full of annoyance.

"Cigna? Niangniang is afraid that she doesn't understand these two words, obviously the Hu family is the life-saving benefactor of Prince Zhongyong, and those two children are the blood of Prince Zhongyong, but how did you tell me that the Hu family has an enmity with you? The man in black put the tea bowl heavily and scolded: "You have caused us to miss a great opportunity, if you catch the mother and son, the loyal and brave king is a paper tiger, we can force him to comply, now it's good, a fire is gone!" ”

When Ye Lian heard about the fire in the Hu family, she was a little weak-hearted, and her momentum immediately disappeared a lot, and she defended: "How long has it been, don't mention the past." Anyway, you have to give me the antidote, or you don't want to get any news. ”

"Humph!" The man in black was not threatened by her, and mocked: "Princess Niangniang, are you afraid that you have forgotten something?" I can't get the news, and I may not be able to control my mouth when I am angry, and I wonder if I will write a few words and throw them to the study in the front yard? also let the prince know what kind of character he is, this charming and pitiful princess, who killed his two bloodlines in one sentence, that is the royal bloodline, the dragon and phoenix fetus, what a pity. ”

"You ......" Ye Lian was shocked and gritted her teeth in anger. She thought that the fire in the Hu family had ended, but she would have thought that the man in black would thoroughly investigate the identity of the Hu family, and also found out about Ye Lan and the two children.

If Zuo Yuanhao knew about it, she would definitely not be able to do it, and if her father who loved her sister knew, she was afraid that she wouldn't even be able to go back to her mother's house, wouldn't she have nothing at that time?

The more she thought about her, the more frightened she became, and finally had to give in, and said softly: "The leader has always been a large number of adults, and he will never be so concerned with the little girl." This time the news is important, and I ask the leader to reward a few more antidotes, as long as I am still the princess, there will naturally be a steady stream of news in the future. ”

"Humph!" The man in black snorted coldly, raised his hand and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it over, "These are two antidotes, don't take out the news yet!" ”

Ye Lian pinched the porcelain vase, tried her best to suppress her anger, and took out two pieces of paper from the secret compartment of the stepping bed.

On one of them were the names of seven or eight people, and on the other were the names of places and numbers.

The man in black only glanced at it and his face changed greatly, it was not that he couldn't hold his breath, but that the news was too appalling, and most of the people on the list were important people in their country who were responsible for the southern expedition, if they didn't get this news, they couldn't say that this southern expedition would be defeated, and maybe they would be destroyed in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't care about perfunctory Ye Lian anymore, so he turned around and disappeared into the dark night.

In the study in the front yard of the palace, the lights are still brilliant, Zuo Yuanhao, who is only wearing a cyan gown, is busy on the table, and the light reflects his shadow on the window lattice, which makes Gonggong Hong, who is guarding the door, feel pained in his heart.

Since the prince has been white-headed overnight, he has been busy day and night, and the food will only occasionally eat a little, this person sees that he is so thin, how much he comforts him is useless, I can't wait to run to Huangquan to grab the neck of Lord Yan, and snatch Miss Ye and the two little masters back.

It's a pity that life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, and the prince is afraid that it will be difficult to see a happy face in this life.

He was thinking nonsense when Chen Sheng knocked on the door and asked to see him.

Zuo Yuanhao shook his sore neck, took a sip of the warm tea in his hand, and then asked, "It's done?" ”

"Back to the prince, it's done." Chen Sheng hurriedly responded, and then hesitantly added, "The subordinates heard the sound of falling porcelain in the room, presumably ...... Well, I didn't get my wish. ”

Zuo Yuanhao sneered, waved his hand and said, "I know, this big fish is something to keep an eye on, and it will be useful in the future, go down." ”

When the room was quiet again, he turned his head to look at the six porcelain altars on the Duobao Bridge, his eyes gentle and sad.

"Lan'er, tomorrow I will go on the expedition, and when I have killed all the enemies, I will go to you to reunite with our children. This time, you just whipped me, and I won't leave you alone. ”

The candle flame reflecting the porcelain altar suddenly crackled, as if it was responding to him......

The wind is bleak, the war drums are beating, and the heroes of the country set off to fight.

On this day, the sky has just brightened, but the streets in the Tibetan Kuncheng are crowded, but everyone who can move, regardless of the old and young, put on the most beautiful clothes and gather to the north to look at the gate, for no other reason, the northern Xinjiang Shaluo people and the western Xinjiang barbarian cavalry joined hands to attack Jinghai, this news is already a household name. Today, in order to protect his family and defend the country, Prince Zhongyong will lead 30,000 elite soldiers to the north, meet hundreds of thousands of border troops, and beat the invading enemy.

The emperor personally beat the drums for the strong men on the city tower, and the prince personally poured wine and candied food for the soldiers, and all the people were enthusiastic and shouted, "Jinghai is mighty!" Jinghai is mighty! ”

There were many carriages parked not far from the city gate, all of which were sent by the families of the soldiers who went out to see them off.

Ye Lian sat in the wide carriage engraved with the mark of the Zhongyong Palace, while raising the curtains to look at the husband who was sitting on the horse with cold eyebrows and heroic posture, and asked Chen Shi in a low voice with some anxiety, "Mother, you say, did the prince find something, otherwise why didn't he go back to the backyard?" ”

Chen glared at his daughter with hatred, and said angrily: "You used to be quite good when you snatched people from that cheap hoof, but as soon as you married into the palace, you became a fool, how can a man be not lustful, you use a little thought and means, and you are not afraid that he will not obediently go back to the backyard, right?" ”

Ye Lian listened to the grievances, she couldn't wait to strip naked and jump into the arms of the prince, but unfortunately every time she was interrupted for a good thing, and recently because of her weak heart, she didn't dare to run to the front yard to flatter, and as a result, it was dragged back and forth until the day of the expedition.

Seeing that his daughter had a bitter face, Chen was a little reluctant, and comforted: "That's it, I don't know when this war will be fought, let's find a way slowly, we must save your life and pick up the Shaluo man, otherwise there will be endless troubles." ”
