Early the next morning, An Ge took the carriage arranged by the queen and set off for Cichen Temple, Ning Jiu carefully looked at the carriage, the carriage was wide enough for seven or eight people to sit, and the gold wire trimmed cushions on the carriage were full of delicate embroidery, and he couldn't help but be curious: "This carriage is really luxurious, I don't know, I think the lady is a member of the royal family." The queen mother is suddenly so good to her wife, what do you want to do? ”

An Ge also felt strange, especially when she thought that when she went to Yiyuan not long ago, the queen specially arranged the most broken and smallest carriage for her, and now this one is even more unkind.

The queen can't hide her thoughts, and whatever she wants to do, she will show it immediately.

"Forget it, the queen is not a ruthless person, no matter how she is, she can't take my life, she wants to make a small fuss, I just cooperate with her." An Ge sighed lightly, thinking that the emperor was so good to the queen at the beginning, but now he changed his mind because of her, and he sympathized with the queen more and more, "She is also pitiful." ”

Ning Jiu nodded, she knew that An Ge had an idea in her heart.

"Madame didn't sleep well last night, there will be a while to Cichen Temple, Madame will sleep for a while."

An Ge nodded, leaned on Ning Jiu, and fell asleep after a while.

The carriage galloped slowly for a long time before it came to a steady stop, and An Ge woke up and got out of the carriage with Ning Jiu.

The concubines had all gotten out of the car, and they all stood in front of the gate of Cichen Temple, talking softly in pairs of threes.

The queen walked to the back and said to An Ge with a straight face: "An Ge, let's go in to worship, you are not a concubine, you are not suitable to be with us, you are here and wait for us to finish worshipping, and you will go in again." ”

Her tone was stiff and her face was cold, but An Ge didn't care and responded, "Yes." ”

The queen immediately went to the temple with the other concubines to pay respects.

An Ge looked up and saw a donkey seller rolling not far in front of the temple, so he asked Ning Jiu to go over and buy her a few yuan.

Ning Jiu responded, and at this time, the two horses galloped to the front of An Ge's carriage and stopped, a man in white turned over and dismounted, walked to An Ge's frame, and asked An Ge, who was looking around: "The girl is the county lord of An Ge?" ”

An Ge turned around when he heard the voice, the man in front of him was unfamiliar, and he couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and said, "Who are you?" ”

The man pressed his hands on his chest, made a northern salute, and replied frankly: "I am Liang Zhilie, the crown prince of the northern kingdom. ”

An Ge has not been able to know the news from the outside world in the past few days, but thinking about it, he also knows that the northern kingdom has been defeated and retreated, and he will definitely send envoys to negotiate peace, and the prince should have come with the envoys.

However, I have long heard that the people of the northern country are heroic and burly, but this prince has cold eyebrows and looks a little weak, except for the slightly rough skin that seems to be caused by the wind and frost of the northern country, there is no other place like the people of the northern frontier.

An Ge replied politely: "It turned out to be the prince of the northern kingdom. I'm indeed An Ge, but I'm not the lord of the county, and you recognize the wrong person. ”

"I'm not mistaken, it's really you." Liang Zhilie took a portrait from his subordinates, opened it in front of An Ge, and said with a smile, "I met the queen mother of your country yesterday, and the queen mother promised me that for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, I would marry their county lord, that is, you, to me, and I was specially arranged to meet you here today." ”

An Ge raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect the queen to have this heart......

She said helplessly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can inquire all over the capital, my husband has passed away for less than a month, how can I marry you?" I will keep the feast for him. ”

Liang Zhilie smiled: "You also said that your husband has passed away, and now you should no longer be bound by him, you can remarry." And, I know what you said, and yesterday the queen came to me with your portrait

I have already sent for you. If I cared about that, I wouldn't be coming to you again today. ”

An Ge had something to argue with him, but he didn't want to come forward to destroy the diplomatic relations between the two countries, so he didn't want to talk to him anymore.

At this time, Ning Jiu bought a donkey and rolled back, and when he saw the painting in Liang Zhilie's hand, he raised his eyebrows, and reached out to snatch the portrait in his hand, but the guard behind Liang Zhili raised his arm and blocked it fiercely.

Ning Jiu suddenly felt a pain in his elbow, and immediately retracted it, and when he looked up, he found that his elbow was already red.

An Ge glanced at Ning Jiu's elbow distressedly, raised his head and said to Liang Zhilie in a cold voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince, how can you hurt someone?" ”

Liang Zhibi smiled: "My guard Ah Dao has no intention of hurting anyone, he is just ordered to protect me, and it is your maid who attacks me first, and he will block it." Your maid made a move, and my guards resisted because of it, how can the girl blame me? ”

An Ge sneered: "Da Li treats guests with courtesy, and guests naturally deserve Da Li's courtesy, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really wants to fight with me for cause and effect, it is clear that you secretly hide my portrait and destroy my reputation, if not, Jiu Gu will not want to take back the portrait to protect my reputation!" ”

Liang Zhilie looked at An Ge with interest, if he said that he just thought it was fun to look for her at first, now that he is really interested in her, he actually began to make this childish argument with her: "This portrait was given to me by the queen of your country, this is the reason for everything, why don't you go to the queen to trouble?" ”

"It turns out that the prince of the northern kingdom not only speaks the Li country well, but this mouth is really sharp-tongued, when the northern kingdom and the Li kingdom went to war, why didn't you northern generals tie you to the battle flag and scold the city? Although you don't necessarily have a turnaround if you scold, but you still have to contribute, right? ”

Ning Jiu was really happy to hear this naked ridicule, and the injury on his hand was not so painful, so he sneered and mocked him: "Look at His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid he hasn't been on the battlefield, right?" You northern countries really don't know how to appoint people. ”

Liang Zhilie smiled very kindly: "I want to, but I don't have the power to fight." ”

An Ge didn't want to say anything more to him, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please return my portrait to me." ”

"I like Miss Ann's painting very much, forgive me for not being able to follow it...... If you can go with me to the teahouse next to me for a cup of tea, I can consider returning your portrait to you. ”

The teahouse is at the entrance of Cichen Temple, and it is also only accessible to people in the royal family, and no one is there.

An Ge felt more and more that he was not at ease, and he really didn't have the energy to entangle with him more, so he simply didn't want to paint it, sat back in the car, and said to the waiter who was waiting outside: "Let's go back to the palace!" ”

Before the chamberlain could answer, Liang Zhilie's guard suddenly spoke: "A woman who has married once is still so arrogant!" Dare to ignore His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

When An Ge heard this, he pulled the curtain again and said to the five big and three thick Ah Dao: "Even if I marry ten times, the I pull won't be your turn to eat!" ”

After speaking, he fell on the car curtain with a "pop".

Ah Dao was so angry that he trembled, holding the knife on his waist and almost couldn't control it, he wanted to draw the knife and cut people!

It's vulgar! It's vulgar! It is said that they northerners are rough people, and they northerners will not open their mouths to say such vulgar things!!

Liang Zhilie felt more and more funny, reached out and pressed Adao's knife, and teased him: "See? Sometimes swearing is really worse than fighting. ”

Ning Jiu saw that the waiter was still not moving, and urged again: "Don't leave yet!" ”

The chamberlain didn't dare to make a decision, so he hurriedly stepped forward and smiled at An Ge: "Miss An, let's leave without waiting for the queen mother, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to them when we turn back." ”

"Let's go, I'll take care of what happens." An Ge said in a deep voice.

"But ......"

The waiter still hesitated, Ning Jiu raised his arm and said, "If you're afraid, come down!" I got it! ”

The chamberlain shrunk his neck in fear, but he still remembered that his master was the queen, and Chong Ningjiu sneered: "The slave really doesn't dare......"

"Go down!" Ning Jiu kicked him off the cart, grabbed the reins, turned the horse's head and left.

The chamberlain stood up with his aching buttocks, and ran after the carriage for two steps, and then sat on the ground in fright and wept, afraid that when the queen came back and saw that he would run away, what would he do......

Liang Zhilie smiled and watched them go away, and said to the waiter: "You just tell the queen that Miss An is going to have tea with me, and she won't blame you." ”

After that, Liang Zhilie also turned on his horse and wanted to chase An Ge.

The waiter stopped his tears and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, a person with such an identity bears it for himself, it's no problem to think about it, this prince of the northern kingdom is really good, not at all as barbaric as the rumored northerners......

Ning Jiu drove to the outside of the temple and fled for several miles, then turned around and said to An Ge: "Madam, why don't we escape?" Let's go for the general! ”

An Ge frowned and groaned, and said for a while: "Even if we run, the rest of the General's Mansion can't run." And if I really go out to find the general now, the emperor will send someone to arrest me, and maybe the general will be implicated...... Forget it, go back to the palace, don't ask yourself for this sin. ”

Ning Jiu thought about it, it was also the same reason, it was impossible for An Ge to let so many people in the General's Mansion go unattended, and when the emperor used them to threaten An Ge, An Ge still had to compromise, it was indeed in vain.

"Then don't go back to the palace so early, it's hard to come out and wander for a while, madam, the slave will accompany you to the outside of the maple garden to have a look, now it's autumn, and the maple trees in the maple garden are red like fire, which is very beautiful. Let's go back to the palace later. ”

An Ge chuckled, "It's okay, let's go." ”

In order to let Liang Zhilie succeed, the queen deliberately left only an inner attendant to guard An Ge. After she prayed for blessings, she came out with all the concubines, and the maid stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, Miss An and the prince of the northern kingdom have gone to have tea." ”

The queen breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, according to her plan, it was the biggest evil thing she had done in her life, and if there was a result, it would be in vain for her to bear the guilt she had borne for so long......

Concubine Li shouted: "My God, An's is really a maverick, her husband just went, so you can drink tea with your foreign man?" ”

Xia Lanyan also shouted: "That's it, the emperor thanked the Jing family for his loyalty and took General Jing's widow into the palace for protection, but An's is good, and he went to drink tea in the same room with foreign men and widows...... Huh......"

Xia Lanyan looked disgusted, pinching her nose with one hand and fanning her in front of her with the other, as if she smelled something.

"Then let's go check it out." The queen said lightly, "The An family is in the palace, and we have to be responsible for her." ”

So the concubines went to "catch the adulterer" with great interest, and they even made up a scene of fragrant scenes, and when the time came, An's reputation was discredited, and she had to marry if she didn't marry!

After a while, he entered the teahouse, and the little monk under the teahouse said that there were only two guests on the second floor, and the concubines thought it was An Ge and the prince of the northern kingdom, so they hurried upstairs.

The queen directly took the lead in pushing the door open, but the expected picture did not appear, and there was no An Ge among the two people in front of her, so she was dumbfounded......
