The screen opened, keeping the crown prince Li Cong out. Xiaoqing and the female medical officer worked together to retreat Su Qiang's wounds.

She could have avoided the assassin's knife, but in order to restrain him and allow the third prince's candlestick to be stabbed just right, she blocked the knife with her shoulder and took the knife hard.

Speaking of which, the third prince knew how to kill people at the age of nine, but he was a little earlier than himself.

This body, which was originally raised in the boudoir and cared for in every way, is now scarred. There are different knife wounds on the shoulder and in the crook of the arm. A pair of hands grinded out some calluses, and there was no previous tenderness.

There's no way around it.

"Hey," she said, looking beyond the screen, "how did you know I was in distress in the library?" ”

Li Cong was outside by Zhang Que first, and when he heard this, he frowned, and said coldly: "Is the crown princess frightened by the assassins?" What you don't have yours. ”

Su Qiang inside made a grimace, laughed with Xiaoqing, and said again: "Prince-Your Highness!" ”

The last two words end with a very heavy sound, revealing a strong intention.

At this time, even Qu Fang, who had always been solemn, had a smile on his face.

"How does the crown princess think this palace came to life? Now that you've married into the East Palace, those secret guards will also pay attention to your safety. However, this time it was inconvenient for them to make a move, and only Hongu went in person. ”

"Oh." Su Qiang nodded, as if she remembered something, and asked again, "Is it okay with the third prince Li Lang?" ”

Su Qiang's action was seen by Li Lang, and as long as he went back and told Lan Guifei, it was inevitable that some people would speculate in his heart.

Li Cong pondered for a moment, and said lightly: "It's okay." ”

Su Qiang wanted to say something more, but the waiter outside the door walked in with his head bowed and presented a post.

"Concubine Lan Guifei came to see the third prince, and now she is waiting in Baoxia."

"So fast! I'm afraid that I haven't returned to my palace to rest yet, so I came to the East Palace. Su Qiang said with a smile.

Her wounds had been treated by the healer, and she stood up in pain, and was served by the palace maid and put on her regular clothes.

The screen was removed, and Li Cong's shirt was peeled off, and the silver needles on his body were densely packed. One hand hung down at his side, and black and red blood dripped from the tip of his middle finger.

In this way, the toxins left in the body are discharged little by little, but a lot of blood is also lost. The doctor said that "blood is the genus of essence", and losing blood every day is not a long-term solution. It's better to find the antidote early.

Li Cong saw that Su Qiang's side had been bandaged, and he closed his eyes and said: "This palace is not over yet, you go to see Concubine Lan, it's nothing more than words like gratitude." It's always good for you to have one more friend in the palace. ”

I'm still half-dead, but I'm planning for someone else.

Su Qiang snorted lightly and stepped out.

"Look!" Seeing her leaving, Li Cong raised his eyes and said to Qu Fang: "I rescued her from the fire in this palace, and I didn't even say thank you." That's it, it's still a young lady raised in Shangshufu. Are you sure that the sedan chair on the wedding day was not pulled by mistake? ”

When he said this, there was no anger on his face.

Qu Fang laughed, took the teacup and offered it, and said slowly: "If it is wrong, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want the slave family to change it?" ”

To change?

Is it really a daily one?

Li Cong pursed his lips, closed his eyes and didn't answer, and cheered up.

Qu Fang understood, and the smile on his face deepened.

……

The green bamboo curtain that hugged the building was raised, and Su Qiangping retreated left and right and walked in alone.

Concubine Lan sat in an octagonal chair with the third prince in her arms. Seeing Su Qiang coming in, he also asked the people around him to withdraw from the hug.

There were only three people left in the room, and the green bamboo curtain was lowered again. The slowly westerly sunlight filtered in, casting dappled shadows on the stone brick floor.

"Concubine Lan." Su Qiang bowed gently.

Lan Guifei had already grabbed Li Lang in her arms, walked over in three or two steps, and knelt down gently.

Su Qiang hurriedly went to stop her, but Concubine Lan didn't comply, and let Li Lang kneel and kowtow upright.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Princess, for saving your life." As she said this, tears welled up in her eyes.

Su Qiang helped her up, shook her head and said: "It is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who saves people, and the third prince is innocently involved, and this palace does not dare to kneel down and thank you as a mother." ”

Lan Guifei's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and as if she had made up her mind in her heart, she reached over again and held Su Qiang's hand firmly.

They are not so close on weekdays, but now they are holding each other's hands face to face, and the atmosphere is a little awkward for a while.

The third prince muttered on the side: "Mother, you scared the princess and sister-in-law." ”

Su Qiang smiled, also grabbed Lan Guifei's hand, pulled her to the edge of the chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "Your mother is afraid that you will have an accident, and now she has a false alarm, so she can't help it." ”

Concubine Lan smiled with relief, glanced at Li Lang with a heavy gaze, and said slowly, "Lang'er has already told me everything." The library is extremely dangerous, if it weren't for the princess's desperate protection, I'm afraid Lang'er would have ...... by now."

Speaking of this, thinking of the tragic things that might happen, Lan Guifei's tears could no longer be controlled. She hurriedly touched the corners of her eyes with the corners of her clothes to prevent tears from smudging her makeup.

It seems that Li Lang did not hide it from Concubine Lan and told the truth about it.

"Since you can't hide it from the concubine," Su Qiang said softly: "Then this palace also wants to thank His Royal Highness the Third Prince for his wit and agility and timely stabbing ......."

"Don't say anything about the crown princess." Concubine Lan opened her mouth to interrupt her words, her eyes were vigilant, and she said slowly: "Even if this is the East Palace, there are ears on the wall. I only hope that Lang'er will not be harmed, let alone noticed by people with a heart. ”

Did you notice that her son was not raised by her brocade clothes and jade food, but secretly cultivated martial arts silently?

This Lan Guifei, who is obviously more favored by Emperor Xuancheng now, is also cautious.

So, who is she afraid of?

Under the party struggle and the succession, even Concubine Lan is terrified?

Su Qiang nodded abruptly, patted Li Lang's shoulder lightly and said, "The prince is here, I wish you all peace." ”

Lan Guifei stood up, looked at the closed windows on the left and right, and seemed to have made a lot of determination before saying, "My mother's family is poor, but she has also been literate since she was a child. In addition to literacy, I also learned a little bit of the art of recognizing people. The crown prince and the princess here have always regarded Lang'er as their younger brother, and I believe it. I'm afraid of someone else. ”

If it's someone else, that's the successor.

Su Qiang bowed her head slightly, adding tea to Concubine Lan.

Concubine Lan had already stood up and was ready to leave.

Su Qiang sent her to the door, she suddenly turned around and said softly: "I heard that the gentleman is a promise, and life and death go hand in hand." The crown princess is willing to promise Lang'er a safe, so there is nothing to thank here in the palace, there is a small matter for the princess to know. ”

Su Qiang stood still and said, "Please tell the concubine clearly." ”
