Chapter 224: The Cold Palace

In the winter, Princess Yuanping braved the severe cold and heavy snow, and only took more than 100 soldiers with her, and got on the carriage to Lianguo.

As always, the palace of Lian Guo did not feel the slightest cold, and he wore a large cloak outside, and it was like spring inside.

The factor attack only stopped the exchange with the gold and jade of the Lian Kingdom, and did not break up, nor did it indicate that the Lian Kingdom turned against each other, according to the heart of the King of Lian, even if there were some doubts, they would not be put on the surface.

Shi Wang grasped this point, so he dared to come with confidence, as if he didn't know anything, and negotiated with him.

King Lian has been setting up a bureau for many years, and has been pretending to be stupid, pulling Bai Yusheng off the throne, this forbearance is very incomparable, and this ambition is also destined to prevent him from clashing head-on with Zi Xi.

"King Lian feels that he has made a lot of money recently, and he doesn't even pay much attention to Jin Yu, so he actually transported those goods to Zixi." Shi Wang said to King Lian with a smile, his face full of strange smiles.

King Lian was puzzled: "What does Princess Yuanping mean by this?" ”

She is no longer the deputy general she used to be, and as a princess, King Lian's treatment of her has also improved a lot.

Even if the matter of money is not conducive to Zi Xi, King Lian should not have this happening, and will treat Shi Wang as a guest of honor, without the slightest timidity.

In other words, he didn't expect Shi Wang to come for this, and when he heard about it, he thought that he was responsible for the loan.

Two people with their own plans in their own hearts, sitting face to face and talking and laughing, no one can guess what is going on in their hearts.

"I'm here for Brother Wang. Last time, I imported a batch of gold and jade from Lian Kingdom, but the color and texture were far worse than before. Could it be that King Lian looks down on my son and is unwilling to sell us those good gold and jade materials? ”

"This ......" King Lian looked at Shi Wang's somewhat angry and annoyed look, not like a fake, "Princess Yuanping is wronged, most of those good gold and jade materials have been transported to Zixi, why do you blame me for not giving good things." It seems that it is the son who cuts off the gold and jade trade, but I still don't understand why? ”

Shi Wang snorted coldly, and didn't think about it: "That kind of material, it's okay if you don't return it, but now it's just a temporary cut-off." If King Lian can put more heart on it, it is not necessary to restore his original appearance in the future. ”

"So, the princess came here for this purpose?" King Lian stared at Shi Wang's expression, trying to find some flaws in it.

But Shi Wang had already thought of thousands of lines in his belly to deal with him.

"It's not that I want to come, it's just that King Lian also knows that I'm not like before, I don't have a military position, even if the front line is hot, it has nothing to do with me. When Brother Wang saw that I was idle, he asked me to ask King Lian if he was going to do this gold and jade business. ”

Shi Wang took the initiative to mention the chaos of the war in front of him, and did not shy away from suspicion, but made King Lian feel that his plan had not yet been known, and Princess Yuanping really came for the matter of gold and jade.

King Lian smiled: "Of course business has to be done." I wonder how Princess Yuanping plans to deal with this? ”

"Naturally, it is necessary to see if the material of the gold and jade mining is insufficient. If this is the case, even if King Lian kneels down and begs me, I will not hide anything in front of my brother. ”

King Lian hurriedly said yes, put her in the palace, and sent someone to arrange the inspection and other matters.

But this is not what the hope is.

After she moved into the palace, she set aside the attendants arranged by King Lian, and ordered the soldiers who followed her not to let anyone enter the palace.

And she, changing into a night suit, avoided the crowd and patrol soldiers, and went to the most remote corner of the palace.

This is the coldest palace in the Lian Palace, compared to other palaces that are like spring, there seems to be no charcoal fire for heating, it is the real winter of the Lian Kingdom.

In contrast, it is not only cold, but also deserted.

In this palace, there are only two people.

"Childe, dinner is here." Ye Rong handed the chopsticks to Bai Yuxuan and stood beside him to wait.

Most of the meals were vegetarian dishes, and they were already cold in winter, and there was even a little white grease, and Bai Yuxuan didn't seem to care at all, and swallowed it as usual.

His demeanor seems to be still the eldest prince under one person, calm and calm, and the food in his mouth is also like delicacies from the mountains and seas, rather than dregs and vegetables.

"Ahem." Ye Rong turned her head and coughed a few times with her sleeve to cover her mouth, her hands covered with chilblains from washing clothes in cold water, and calluses from frequent chores.

Bai Yuxuan put down his chopsticks, glanced at her, and went into the hall to find something.

"This is the cough pill I left before, you can take it first, I've been coughing for days."

Ye Rong shook his head and pushed his hand away: "How long has this pill been placed, is there any medicine that is not easy to say, what if you eat it and your stomach is bad?" ”

Bai Yuxuan reluctantly put down his hand, as if he was a little weak.

"I have a way, is the eldest prince willing to listen to me?"

Ye Rong and Bai Yuxuan were both non-martial arts, and they couldn't hear the sound of footsteps, and they were startled when someone suddenly appeared behind them.

When I took off my mask, I realized that it was an old man.

On the second day, Princess Yuanping suddenly contracted a cold and coughed, and King Lian hurriedly asked a doctor to treat her, and the scheduled trip to Jinyu also stalled.

"It's all strange that His Royal Highness King Lian took care of him too well, and he didn't adapt to the warmth in the house for a while, and he was a little stuffy, so he opened the window at night, which didn't he get caught the cold."

The flush on both sides of Shi Wang's cheeks was very realistic, and even if the doctor felt that there was no major problem, he could only prescribe some medicine according to the symptoms of wind and cold cough.

And these prepared medicines went to Bai Yuxuan's palace intact.

"This is my sincerity," Shi Wang took out some silver taels from his sleeve, "and these." If the eldest prince is usually inconvenient, this may be able to help a little. ”

After Bai Yuxuan motioned for Ye Rong to put these away, he let her retreat.

"What does Princess Yuanping mean here?"

Shi Wang smiled slightly and said, "I can't imagine that the eldest prince lives in this inconspicuous palace, and no one wants to come here to know some affairs of other countries. Come to think of it, the eldest prince's connections are not cut off. But these are all things that I don't want Miss Yerong to know. Otherwise, just a few cough medicines, how could the eldest prince not be able to take them out. ”

Bai Yuxuan frowned, dyed with a hint of fierceness that he didn't have.

"What do you want?"

"Don't worry, eldest prince, I'm not here to threaten you, but to help you. Or rather, mutual aid. ”

"Princess Jinzun's body, how can I, the waste king, be able to help. The princess isn't looking for the wrong person. ”

Shi Wang snorted coldly: "Does the eldest prince want Miss Yerong to wash her clothes in the cold water in winter all the time, clean the palace alone, and live a life of not having enough food and clothing?" ”

Bai Yuxuan's expression moved slightly, but he still didn't speak.

"I believe that even if the eldest prince does not have my help, he will be able to get out of such a predicament one day. However, doesn't the eldest prince want such a day to end sooner? ”
