Hearing Wen Ling stop the sedan chair, Yi Yu still didn't know why, but the sedan chair driver had already stopped.

"Princess, but what are the important orders?"

Wen Ling lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and came out of the sedan chair, "What about them." ”

"Over there." Yi Yu pointed.

Wen Ling looked over, and sure enough, he saw a few people, and their clothes were very similar to the backs of the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but they couldn't see it clearly.

"Cloud Shadow."

"The subordinates are here."

"Send someone to see, be careful, what assassin they're tracking."

"Yes."

Yun Ying got the order, and immediately whistled, and the other accompanying shadow guards followed several guards from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wen Ling's heart thumped twice.

In fact, the assassin in the Prime Minister's Mansion has nothing to do with her, but now that Xiaobao's disappearance is still involved with Du Yong, Wen Ling has an extra heart. After finishing the order, Wen Ling got back into the sedan chair.

"Let's go."

It was the daughter of the Xue Guogong family who invited Wen Ling to participate in the plum appreciation banquet, and she was also at the age of marriage. In fact, according to this age, the son who Mocheng wants to marry the most should belong to Gu Rin and Gu Xun, both of whom are princes. It's just a pity that now that the two of them are in the territory of Qi Kingdom, even if they have dealt with the matter of blood slaves, they have to discuss the matter of attacking Tuyuhun, and they can't come back after a year and a half.

However, Wen Ling remembered that when the daughter of the Xue family invited her, she said that most of the high-ranking officials and young talents in Mocheng would participate, and the main game was also to appreciate the plum. However, the purpose of Wen Ling knows that it is just the time to appreciate the plums, chanting poems against each other, and promoting his reputation.

The daughter of the Xue family invited her over, just to get her own yard.

After arriving at Zhuangzi, I saw Xue Yingying waiting outside, and smiled gently, "I thought the princess would arrive in a while, but I didn't expect the princess to come so early." There are a lot of lazy people, and they haven't arrived yet, and if they neglect the princess, they should be punished. ”

Wen Ling smiled, what she said was to give people steps, but she was actually late.

An ordinary plum banquet, Wen Ling, as the princess of Qi Kingdom, has somewhat seized the main position, and the nobles of all families look at Wen Ling respectfully on the surface, in their eyes, this princess is very likely to be the crown princess or even the queen of the Jin Kingdom in the future, so they are all flattering.

When he was a child in Qi State, Wen Ling was impatient with such a noble girl.

But now I have to raise a smile and listen quietly.

In the snow, Wen Ling quietly listened to others, and if someone asked him, he said it all in a shallow way, not so stupid that others said what he answered. But everyone is a noblewoman, they all understand the measure, and more often they talk about some interesting things about themselves.

It is not only women who come to the plum banquet, but also many sons and brothers, most of whom are the sons of important ministers, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are not yet married. When Wen Ling left, he could still see that several couples seemed to have a marriage contract, and they all walked to the side alone to talk, but they were not out of everyone's sight, and no one bothered them.

There are tables, chairs, tea and snacks in the plum garden.

Xue Yingying said some interesting things about Mocheng, Wen Ling listened to it interestingly, and played a few word games halfway, Wen Ling did not participate in it, only as a wait-and-see, several noble girls were punished after losing, and they all showed their talents in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and a few specially changed their clothes to accompany the dance, and the eyes of several sons and brothers who watched it were straight.

Wen Ling lowered her eyes, which was the same as the circle of girls in Linzi.

After paddling for most of the day, as Wen Ling expected, someone noticed the sword-shaped jade pendant on her body. In the Jin Kingdom, sword-shaped jade pendants were mostly used by men, and women were mostly ruyi, pearls, butterflies, etc.

Halfway through, a woman surnamed Yao on the other side of Wenling asked a man with a folding fan and asked, "Aren't you Du Gongzi coming?" Why not? ”

The man was the son of the Xie family, named Xie Yu.

Wen Ling glanced at it, but saw that Xue Yingying's face beside her was a little abnormal.

"Me? How do I know him, nervous, and a little bit the same...... This time I haven't seen anyone for a few days......" Xie Yu finished speaking, and found Wen Ling looking at him, and hurriedly smiled.

Wen Lingbang seemed to say casually, "This son of the Du family is the son of Prime Minister Du." ”

"Yes......" Xie Yu said busily, "Prime Minister Du is in a high position, and Du Gongzi used to often attend our gatherings, but I don't know what's going on, there have been fewer in the past six months...... Two days ago, I handed over the invitation letter, and he also came to say that he would come to participate today, but now he broke his promise again, and the Prime Minister's Mansion came to say, saying that Du Gongzi was ill. ”

Xie Yu felt that there was nothing to hide in this matter.

Xue Yingying lowered her eyes, "Du Gongzi has always been mysterious, and he refuses to appreciate his face, so that's it." ”

Having said that, Wen Ling felt that Xue Yingying seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Xie Yu unnaturally overdid it.

Wen Ling felt that there seemed to be something to dig up, but he took the initiative to tell Xue Yingying some of the past events in Qi State, regardless of whether Xue Yingying really listened to it or not, the relative Wen Ling could be regarded as having some gains.

Half a year ago, Du Yong was still a little famous in the circle of noble sons, in the eyes of everyone in Mocheng, Du Yong was his destiny, and Qiming was his word, but more often he liked others to call him his own Qi Gongzi.

Most of the eunuchs' families have marriages, and Xue Yingying, as the concubine of the Guogong Mansion, almost got married to Du Yong.

mentioned this almost marriage contract, Xue Yingying's eyes were full of happiness.

Wen Ling said pretendedly, "You attach so much importance to this Du Gongzi, you must be a talented person." ”

Xue Yingying mentioned this, but she wanted to say it again and again, and finally shook her head.

"Is there something hidden that can't be done?" Wen Ling was slightly surprised, his expression was in place, and he was very innocent.

Xue Yingying hesitated slightly, "Not really, but something happened, so the marriage was done." As for Du Gongzi's personality, although it is a little strange, most of the sons and brothers in Mocheng are like this, but Du Gongzi is a little strange, and after the incident of the drunken Red Mansion later, my father and mother felt that something was wrong, so they gave up the marriage contract. ”

Wen Ling understood, the matter of the drunken Red Mansion must be the matter of Yan Zhi.

Xue Yingying said something intermittently, probably even Xue Yingying also understood that the son of your family has a lot of tricks, and he will play more before marriage. At that time, in the flower building in Mocheng, Yan Zhi's value was raised very high, and Du Yong's behavior of spending a lot of money was spread out, and he was reprimanded by Prime Minister Du, but Prime Minister Du's high power also felt that it was no big deal to play with women, not to mention that the other party was a woman in the Qinglou.

But half a year ago, when the Xue family was considering making a family relationship with the Du family, something went wrong.

When Xue Yingying went out shopping with her mother, she met Du Yong, Du Yong saw Xue Yingying, but she was very unfamiliar with Xue Yingying, but she didn't know it, no one followed Du Yong at that time, and Du Yong was on the roadside stall, very hungry eating a bowl of wonton noodles, and when he was leaving, he didn't give silver.

Later, the guards around Du Yong found Du Yong, and Xue Yingying and Xue's mother stepped forward to talk to him, but they were stopped by the guards, saying that their son-in-law was unwell and wanted to go back to see the doctor. But Du Yong was very angry and said, "I'm not sick, you don't let me eat, I'm just hungry!" ”

At that time, Du Yong's tone and face were very strange.

Then suddenly, Du Yong fainted and was taken back by his guards.

"It's very strange, it has been rumored for many years in Mocheng that the daughter of the Du family is seriously ill and seeks medical treatment everywhere, but no doctor can cure it, but not long after, the daughter of the Du family got married, and there is no problem with her body, and now she is pregnant with Liujia...... Princess, forgive me, Yingying shouldn't have said these things to ......"

"It's okay, I just think it's funny, and if it were me, I'd be suspicious." Wen Ling winked at Xue Yingying.

This incident made the Xue family suspect that Du Yong was sick, although strong alliances were the norm, but the Xue family couldn't do anything to push their daughter into the fire pit.

Xue Yingying breathed a sigh of relief.

To tell the truth, the Xue family's rejection of the Du family's marriage contract is that above the court, Prime Minister Du frequently grabbed Xue Guogong's handle. But now that the Jin court is employing people, Emperor Jin doesn't like to deal with these things, and Xue Guogong is the righteous brother of the Jin Dynasty, so Prime Minister Du can't move the Xue family for the time being. She wooed Wen Ling because this princess will at least be the princess in the future, no matter which prince it is, she is worthy of being close to the Xue family.

After the plum banquet, Xue Yingying arranged a sedan chair to send Wen Ling back, Wen Ling sorted out the news she got in her mind, and couldn't help but have a thought, could it be that Du Qi and Du Yong are really two people?

Maybe Du Yong is really the prime minister's son, but his health is not very good, so he is hidden by the prime minister's mansion, and Du Qi is a substitute?

But thinking about it like this, Wen Ling felt that it was unreasonable.

I didn't get an answer for a while, who knew that after returning to the embassy, the shadow protector brought a message that shocked Wen Ling.

"Princess, the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion are not looking for an assassin, it is Du Gongzi!"

"Duyon?" Wen Ling was slightly surprised.

Yunying looked strange, "I'm afraid, I need the princess to go and see it herself." That Du Gongzi is very wrong. ”

Wen Ling didn't have time to guess what Du Yunying said was wrong.

After finding an excuse and telling Mu Xi, he went out.

The Shadow Guardian settled Du Yong in the inn, and now he is watched by Yundu.

After Wen Ling arrived, before he could knock on the door of the room, he heard Du Yong's self-talk from inside, "...... I'm Du Yong, I'm Du Yong...... Impossible......"

Wen Ling didn't knock on the door, but walked straight in.

Du Yong, who was inside, heard the voice, and subconsciously got up and looked at the person in a panic, but when he saw the person, Du Yong was stunned.

"Wen, Miss Wen......"

Wen Ling looked at Du Yong, in just a few days, Du Yong had lost a lot of weight, and he looked a little different, and the biggest difference was his eyes.
