Tong Yuqing was stunned for a moment, thousands of thoughts had already flashed in his heart, but he had never thought that his person had always been by his side.

He is really a negative person, not only did he not come to the three-day appointment after having Princess Ling, but he was no longer willing to care about her life or death? Since the little girl is his, why didn't he think about letting the little girl help her leave?

The little girl saw that Tong Yuqing didn't speak, and looked at her expression more indifferent and alienated than before, and the little girl bent a pair of eyebrows and asked her with a smile: "Is the girl angry that the slave maid deceived the girl, or is the second master angry that doesn't care about the girl?" ”

was poked in her heart, Tong Yuqing turned around angrily and left. The little girl stood in front of her and handed back the flowers in her hand. Tong Yuqing knocked the delicate flower to the ground, "Get out of the way." ”

Hearing this, the little girl suddenly understood the reason in her heart, and explained aggrievedly, "The girl misunderstood the slave maid, and he put the slave maid in the Qi Palace, in order to secretly transmit the news of the Seventh Prince." The people in the hands of the second master perform their own duties, and the slave and maid are only in charge of this, and the rest of the things are not in the hands of the slave and maid. Moreover, the seventh prince is cautious and suspicious, and the guards in the palace have been much stricter than before recently, even if the slave wants to send the girl away, she is powerless. The slave is just a little girl, but it's simple to send a letter, but to send an adult out, the slave doesn't have this ability. ”

After listening, the little girl looked at her increasingly ugly face, and added: "If the girl wants to leave, she still has to come over in person." ”

Tong Yuqing suddenly sneered, "Who said that I was going to leave here, I will soon be the seventh princess, and I will enjoy endless glory and wealth." If Cheng Zirui really became the emperor, I might still be able to be a queen and the mother of the world. Why should I leave when there are such good things, you are stupid, are you stupid to me? ”

The little girl pursed her lips, knowing the true thoughts in her heart, but she was smart not to break it anymore. And Tong Yuqing had already turned around and went back to the road she came, the little girl hurriedly chased after her, glanced around, and asked softly: "What does that girl need to ask the slave to bring to the second master?" ”

"I have nothing to do with your second master, if you dare to make your own decisions...... she stood still, staring at the little girl with a cold gaze, "I will tell Cheng Zirui your identity and let him kill you." ”

The little girl's face changed, she lowered her head in a regular manner, and retreated behind her.

……

The open and secret struggle between Cheng Zirui and the prince intensified, and for several days, Cheng Zirui didn't have time to come over, even Zhuyun only came over once or twice occasionally. The little girls in the palace were talking in private, saying that Cheng Zirui was tired of Tong Yuqing, and his recent frequent visits to the palace probably wanted to ask the emperor to take back the holy decree.

Tong Yuqing, who heard these gossip, laughed sarcastically, she hoped that Cheng Zirui would really forget about herself, out of sight and out of mind.

It was the second day of the first month, the day before the wedding.

Even if Tong Yuqing was unwilling, it was still such a day. Zhuyun hurriedly came over, piled up the house with the wedding things, and said that he wanted to try on makeup for her, and then said some rules for the wedding, and for a while, he talked about the sedan chair to go around the capital......

Those dazzling red things made Tong Yuqing upset, and her heart shook over the crucial painting, and she endured her temper, "What about your lord?" ”

"According to the rules, before the wedding, the girl should pick a day and follow the prince into the palace to see the concubine. It's just that the prince felt sorry for the girl's body, so he went into the palace by himself. ”

Tong Yuqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly remembered that when he met Cheng Zirui in the Qinglou last time, he heard the person next to him mention a name called Yun Zhao......

"Zhuyun, your lord, is there anything ...... Confidante? ”

Zhuyun, who was putting on her makeup, paused, "Confidante? What does the girl mean? ”

Tong Yuqing raised her eyebrows when she saw herself in the makeup mirror, "It's the woman you like, or the woman you have slept with." ”

Zhuyun's expression was stunned, and his expression suddenly became a little subtle. Tong Yuqing thought to herself, Zhuyun was probably thinking about how could she, a woman who had already been married, dare to dislike her own prince? It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, especially a person with status like Cheng Zirui, who has always had a girl who warms the bed, she is indeed cheeky enough to ask.

"The concubine once arranged a girl who warmed the bed for the prince, but the prince didn't like it. The slave maid has followed the prince for so many years, and she has never seen any woman the prince has taken a fancy to, the girl, or the first. ”

Tong Yuqing looked away and stopped talking.

At nightfall, Cheng Zirui suddenly came over. At this moment, the last thing Tong Yuqing wanted to see was him, so he turned around directly and turned his back to him. "Zhuyun said that you and I can't see each other before the wedding, so the prince should go back quickly."

Cheng Zirui not only did not go back, but strode towards her and hugged her directly from behind. She stiffened, and subconsciously wanted to escape. He tightened the strength of his arms, wrapped her tightly in his arms, and hugged her.

"Don't move."

His voice was hoarse, his head was in her shoulder socket, his snort could be felt on his neck, and the faint smell of wine filled the air.

Feeling the stiffness of the woman in his arms, Cheng Zirui sighed faintly, but he was reluctant to let her go.

"Qing'er."

He shouted her name in a shallow manner, which made Tong Yuqing's heart shake fiercely, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

"My mother gave birth to me to take the throne." He paused, his fingers rubbing his fingers over her cheek, as if he were treating some kind of treasure. "If I had known you earlier, I wouldn't have wanted any country or scheme. Qing'er, if you could have met me earlier, wouldn't you have treated me better? ”

Tong Yuqing was shocked by his question, she had never thought of this kind of question.

She pursed her lips tightly, if she met Cheng Zirui before Yu Chong, then she would probably be the same for him. Their birth was placed there, one was high, the other was the daughter of a criminal minister, and then there was the evidence in the painting, pointing directly to the conspiracy in the palace. They are always on opposite sides and can never stand together.

For the sake of her father's painting, for the evidence in the painting, no matter what she thinks in her heart, she can only pretend to be dumb at such a time. As for what Cheng Zirui thinks in his heart, that's his own business.

I suddenly remembered Yu Chong's words: Tong Yuqing, why can't you cover it.

Tong Yuqing's eyes darkened, her heart was really not hot.

Suddenly, Cheng Zirui laughed in her ear twice, and the laughter diluted Yu Chong's words, and she couldn't hear them anymore. He turned her body around and stared into her eyes with a burning eye.

"Tomorrow is the big wedding, I will be indispensable to you in everything I promised you, as long as you are obedient and obediently be the princess of this king."

In the latter sentence, he called himself "this king", could it be that he had already noticed something?

Tong Yuqing's heart was lifted up all of a sudden, and there was suddenly a bottomless pit in her heart, for fear that she would fall into the abyss if she took a wrong step.

Until the next morning, Cheng Zirui's words still rang in her ears. She didn't sleep all night, and her whole head was groggy.

Zhuyun came over with a few girls, and Tong Yuqing saw the little girl from last time at a glance, that, Yu Chong put it in the Seven Kings' Mansion to spy on Cheng Zirui's little girl.

The fists hanging on both sides tightened again, saying that she had nothing to do with Yu Chong, she had been waiting since last night, and even had already made up her mind that if Yu Chong came, she could even give up her father's painting and leave with him. But she waited all night, and her former expectation turned to disappointment, and then from disappointment to despair.

Looking at the dazzling red of the room, Tong Yuqing laughed at herself.

Do it, that's what you do.

Zhuyun caught a glimpse of that self-deprecation, and quietly sent the things in his hand over. Tong Yuqing caught a glimpse of the painting box in her hand and was shocked.

"Girl, this is a dowry from the prince."

Tong Yuqing's fingertips trembled, and she watched Zhuyun take out the scroll from the painting box, open it and show it to her, and she was sure that this was really her father's painting!

After showing it to her, Zhuyun put away the things, called the little girl over, shook off the red wedding dress, and asked her tentatively, "Girl, can you change your clothes and put on makeup now, it's not good to miss the auspicious time for a while." ”

She glanced at Zhuyun and replied with an indifferent face.

"I'll change my clothes myself."

put on makeup and changed clothes, Tong Yuqing at this time was simply shocked.

The wedding dress worn by the **** is only ten taels of silver, and the makeup is even simpler. And today, her exquisite outfit is also calculated in gold, which shows Cheng Zirui's sincerity.

Winning this honor should have been joyful, but Tong Yuqing couldn't laugh at all.

Zhuyun knew the reason and thought about persuading him, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

"Sister Zhuyun!"

A girl outside ran over in a panic, and when she caught a glimpse of Tong Yuqing, who was already wearing red makeup, her expression became more and more subtle. The little girl leaned into Zhuyun's ear and whispered something, and Zhuyun's face changed greatly, and she ran out directly after ordering someone to take care of Tong Yuqing.

Tong Yuqing rarely saw Zhuyun so flustered, and sighed in her heart, I'm afraid that something happened to Cheng Zirui?

His eyes fell on the painting box next to the makeup, Tong Yuqing's two hands loosened and clenched, tightened and released, and after a few times, his palms were already full of cold sweat. In her heart, she recalled the route in the palace, and planned to take this thing and run if she had the opportunity for a while.

At this time, there was already a commotion outside the Seven Kings' Mansion, and the prince led people to surround the Seven Kings' Mansion twice. Cheng Zirui stood in front of the palace with a happy voice, looking at the prince coldly.

"Today is the day of the king's wedding, and if the prince comes to drink, the king welcomes him. If not...... Even if you can't stay with this king any longer, you can't choose to make trouble today. ”

The crown prince sneered, "Big wedding? This prince sees that you are married, I am afraid that you will not be able to marry! ”
