Xie Ling's heart shook, and she couldn't help but clench her fists secretly, and after a long while, she shook her head with a smile: "It's nothing, sister, in five days it will be the banquet of the East Palace Wenhui presided over by the prince, and at that time, Ding Gui Concubine Niangniang may choose a talented and wise person among the noble ladies as the prince's concubine, have you thought about how to show your talent and promote your reputation at the elegant banquet of your concubine Niangniang?" ”

The prince has reached the age of marriage, and in his early years, Xiao Yan gave Xiao Tong more than a dozen musicians, and he also had the intention of trying to teach, but Xiao Tong is not good at vocal music, he only likes to enjoy the landscape, and he is not touched at all in women's sex, and when he was young, he practiced on behalf of his father, and when he grew up, he followed Xiao Yan to learn government affairs, and he was delayed in marrying a wife and establishing a princess.

However, there is also the meaning of Xiao Yan's repeated visits to the family, Xie Ling never understood Xiao Yan's attitude towards the Xie family in his previous life, Ding Guifei in his previous life also belonged to the eldest sister Xie Hanyun as the crown princess, Xiao Yan did not refuse, and almost all the things about the eldest sister's desire to enter the crown princess of the East Palace were spread all over Jiankang City, but in this situation, Xiao Zhengze fabricated rumors that the eldest sister had a private meeting with others, and even took out the silk token with the eldest sister's handwriting.

If she wants to help her eldest sister marry the prince, she must find out the intentions of Xiao Yan, the son of heaven.

When she asked, Xie Hanyun was stunned, and said in a low voice: "Ah Ling, don't you like me to marry the prince?" ”

"I'm not disliked, speaking of which, Sister Ah and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are both talented and clean people, extremely compatible, and the eldest sister is also a lady of the sky, in this world except the prince, who can match the eldest sister?" After a pause, Xie Ling said, "Sister, I'm just a little scared. ”

Xie Hanyun's eyes flashed, and he immediately hugged Xie Ling into his arms: "I'm sorry, Ah Ling, this time it was Sister Ah Ling's willfulness that made Ah Ling worried, in fact, after this incident, Sister Ah suddenly figured it out, in order to ensure the peace of the family, it is okay not to marry the prince, Sister Ah doesn't ask for anything now." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, since you already belong to your heart, why should you wronged yourself." After that, Xie Ling smiled, "Sister don't worry, I will help you, but from now on, you can't trust anyone anymore, especially the Zhu family and the Cai Wen family." ”

Xie Hanyun's face sank: "Mother, what's wrong with her?" ”

"Sister don't you remember, who instigated you to see the prince?"

Xie Hanyun remembered what Zhu said to her: "Ah Yun was born to be a phoenix above the nine heavens, the life is precious, no one can compare, my mother has saved you a marriage lot, but it is signed, which means that our Ah Yun does have a phoenix life, and the position of the princess of the East Palace is none other than Ah Yun." ”

"The prince will go to the Red Bean Nunnery at three o'clock, and he will be waiting for you there."

Xie Hanyun came back to his senses and exclaimed in disbelief: "You said that this incident was done by my mother?" It was my mother who deliberately lured me to meet that man, this is impossible, my mother has always treated me very well, how could she be ......"

At this time, Qiu Shi also knelt down and said, "Big lady, Lang Jun won't lie to you, if you don't believe it, go ask Zhengfen and see what she says?" ”

Xie Hanyun immediately called Zhengfen and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?" ”

Na Zhengfen glanced at Xie Ling, knelt down as soon as his legs were weak, and sobbed: "Big lady, the slave should die, it was the eldest lady who coerced the slave to come to the eldest lady's side as an internal response, and passed the news of the eldest lady to the eldest lady." ”

"What did you say?" Xie Hanyun couldn't help but stand up from the collapse excitedly, "You said that you and your mother joined forces to calculate me?" Zhengfen, how do I usually treat you? ”

Na Zhengfen's eyes rolled, and he cried out in great fear: "The eldest lady treats the slave very well, the slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die, but the slave is also forced to die, the slave really doesn't want to, the deed of the slave family is in the hands of the eldest lady!" ”

"Then tell me, who is my mother colluding with, and who is the man who wants to kill me?"

Zhengfen shook his head again and said, "I don't know, the eldest lady only asked me to deliver the news, and she didn't tell me anything, I don't know who that man is?" ”

"You-"

Xie Hanyun was so angry that she reached out and was about to hit her with something, but was stopped by Xie Ling.

"Sister, this maid is still a little useful to keep, leave it to me!"

After that, Xie Ling asked Qiu Shi to take Zhengfen down again.

Xie Hanyun grabbed Xie Ling's arm and asked, "Ah Ling, you must know who that man is?" Right? You just deliberately diverted the topic, why didn't you say it again? ”

Xie Ling said: "I'm just guessing, I'm not sure yet, I only know that there are two people in this world who like to wear gold rings." ”

"Which two?"

Xie Ling paused for a while before replying: "Xiao Hong, King of Linchuan, and Xiao Zhengde, King of Linhe." ”

Xie Hanyun's face turned white instantly: "That means that this person is very likely to be Xiao Zhengde?" ”

Thinking of Xiao Zhengde's character, Xie Hanyun felt a tingling scalp and a chill, how many ministers' wives and daughters were taken away by him as concubines, and the people in the entire Jiankang were afraid to be angry with him, but His Majesty's attitude towards him was extremely tolerant, and almost all the crimes he committed were covered up and given light sentences.

In the entire Jiankang City, no one dared to offend him!

Seeing that there was palpitation in Xie Hanyun's eyes, Xie Ling comforted again: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm just guessing, not to mention that even if it is Xiao Zhengde, I will solve this matter." ”

"How are you going to fix it? Ah Ling, whether it is Xiao Hong, the king of Linchuan, or Xiao Zhengde, the king of Linhe, are extremely favored by the emperor, and we dare not offend. And this father and son ......."

"Soon, soon they will get the punishment they deserve." After a pause, she said, "Even if Your Majesty doesn't punish them, I will make them pay for what they have done. ”

When he said this, Xie Ling's eyes unconsciously shot out a fierce light, and a kind of awe-inspiring and ruthless aura rose spontaneously, which made Xie Hanyun feel a chill, and he was inexplicably a little scared: "Ah Ling, what are you talking about?" ”

Xie Ling's eyes gradually softened, and he said to Xie Hanyun with a smile: "It's okay, sister, it's getting late, I'll go back and rest first, and five days later, I'll go to the East Palace with you for a banquet." ”

Xie Hanyun also replied with a smile: "Okay." Immediately summoned Mingyu and sent Xie Ling out of Lanxin Courtyard.

……

After returning to his Dexin Academy, Xie Ling took out the poem "Van Tan" and compared it with the "Changmen Fu" left by his father, and found that some of the fonts on this "Van Tan" were really similar to the last word of "Changmen Fu", but one was like a Wei tablet that had been practiced for a long time, and the other was more like a beginner.

"Changmen Fu", "Sad Falling Leaves" and this "Felling Tan", almost all the evidence points to the second prince Xiao Zong, but Xiao Zong is in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and she is now sure that the man who deceived Sister to go to Hongdou Nunnery as the prince must be Xiao Zhengde, so who is the person who plotted to assassinate the prince and killed his father?

Or is it just one person at all?

Xie Ling was puzzled, Qiu Shi saw that she was thinking too hard, so he hurriedly brought some snacks in front of her: "Lang Jun, don't think about it anymore, let's have some dinner first!" ”

Xie Ling nodded, as if remembering something, and looked at Qiu Shi: "Have you memorized all the poems I asked you to memorize?" ”

Qiu Shi nodded hurriedly: "It's all written down, Lang Jun, please rest assured." ”

Xie Ling nodded in approval, five days later, it was time for her to make a name for herself at the banquet of the East Palace Literary Society, of course she also knew that even if there was no help from her in this life, Chen Shuo would definitely go to participate in the literary gathering held by the crown prince Xiao Tong.

This is also an opportunity for him to make a name for himself!

And what she has to do is to prevent him from entering the government in this life, and to block all opportunities for him to become an official under the crown prince Xiao Tong.

When thinking about this, unconsciously, Xie Ling had fallen asleep, and she didn't know how long she had been asleep, but she felt that someone was shaking her body, and someone was calling her name in her ear one by one:

"Ah Ling, Ah Ling ......"

Xie Ling opened her eyes and saw that the person who shook her body was Chen Shuo.

The picture in front of her is also very familiar, it is the secret prison where she was imprisoned by Chen Shuo when she died in her previous life, at this moment, Chen Shuo's face was hideous, and he looked at the two prison guards who were holding knives against her with red eyes, and roared sharply: "Who made you play such a heavy hand? Who made you lay such a heavy hand! ”

After speaking, he suddenly pulled out a sword and cut one of the jailers into two pieces, and the people in the secret prison were suddenly shocked, and at this moment, someone hurried to report: "Prince Chen, it's not good, that hostage, that hostage ......"

Before the man could finish speaking, there was a dull sound at the end of the prison, followed by countless shouts and roars, and as a ray of light gradually seeped in, a white shadow rushed towards this side with countless fallen corpses.

When the white shadow gradually came into view, Xie Ling's expression also changed in shock: this person was none other than Liancheng, the one who was hung on the stone pillar and his clothes were all tattered, but he was covered in blood, and his face was pale and fierce.

"Shizi, run away! He's not human, he's already killed more than a hundred of our brothers. ”

The soldiers and jailers in the prison were all so frightened that they fell to their knees, they were afraid, they were desperate, and they looked at Liancheng as if they were not looking at people, but at Hell Shura.

Liancheng didn't look at them, and as soon as he entered the prison, his eyes shone on the other her, the "she" whose hands were tied but no longer alive.

"Ah Ling—"

He walked towards her, unaware of the fact that someone behind him had risen with a knife, and the knife fell on his back, splattering blood, and in the blink of an eye, the sword in his hand also cut the man behind him in two.

With a "ding", the cell door opened, Liancheng walked in front of "her", and he called softly: "Ah Ling, I'm here!" ”

"Ah Ling, I'm here."

"You see, in fact, I can still escape, I said earlier, I was born brave, no one can trap me, why don't you believe me?"

"Ah Ling, I'm here, don't you want to look at me?"

Seeing the crystal and despair gradually welling up in Liancheng's eyes, Xie Ling couldn't help but feel like a knife, and hurriedly walked in front of him, wanting to tell him: I am right in front of you.

But Liancheng didn't seem to see her, he couldn't see her, but a broken light was oozing from his eyes, and at this moment, outside the cell, Chen Shuo had already ordered: "Kill him, kill him quickly!" ”

Xie Ling looked at Chen Shuo, and there was a sudden "ding" sound in his ears again, but it was Liancheng who cut the iron rope that bound her and took her body into his arms.

"Kill him, give me arrows, and don't let him get out of this dungeon!"

Chen Shuo shouted again, he had already drawn his bow like a full moon, and in an instant, a fierce light tore through the night and penetrated Liancheng's chest.

"Chen Shuo, you are so despicable!"

"Even if I die today, I must pay for her life!"

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! ”

After shouting a few times in a row, Chen Shuo realized that he had no way to retreat, and the young man like a jade-faced Shura still walked in front of him even though he was full of arrows.

"Don't you know that she once regarded you as a confidant?"

"She gave you fame and gave you today! Is that how you repay her? ”

"Chen Shuo, you are not worthy!"

"You really don't deserve it!"

You don't deserve it!

At the end of the three words, Chen Shuo's pupils also widened suddenly, and a silver arrow also pierced through his chest, and in his sloppy gaze, the white shadow left him step by step.

Xie Ling glanced at Chen Shuo, who was struggling on the verge of death, and also turned around and chased towards Liancheng.

Then he saw that the young man was crying and fell to his knees like a child.

"Xie Ling, I love you, but I know that I am not qualified to love you, I understand the difference between cloud and mud, the noble and the low, so I don't expect you to marry me, but so what?

I like to do anything for you, I'm willing to do anything for you, I don't need anything in return, but why would you want to come back? Why come back? ”
