Chapter 73: The Matter of the Alliance

Concubine Rou put on her makeup again, and the palace maids had already rushed forward to clean up the mess, and then invited Concubine Jia to sit down for tea.

"Looking at Fang Cai's appearance, my sister is not less angry!"

Concubine Jia stroked the tea foam, and after a while, she said with a smile.

Concubine Rou pouted: "Didn't Fang Cai make me confused?" Sister Jiafei, don't laugh ......"

"Hey, Sister Roufei will be out of sight when she says this."

Concubine Jia smiled and put down the tea cup in her hand, thought about it, and smiled mysteriously: "Now the two of us are good sisters on the same boat, how can we laugh at you?" It's just that, my sister has to listen to my advice, this temper, it's better to be restrained when it should be restrained, our emperor, although sometimes I like you to be different, but in all fairness, in this harem, which of us can surpass the queen? The queen always has a dignified face, afraid of our emperor, this is what she loves......"

"Hmph, what does he love, and what does it have to do with me!"

Concubine Rou sneered: "I only gave birth to one daughter in Jingyi, and Jingyi's marriage, he didn't even mention it to me, so he gave the marriage directly!" Hmph, in the future, my sister must not say that he has such words as me in his heart, our Huayang Palace has a hard life, the concubines are not favored, and the princess is not favored, but I don't want to be laughed at! ”

"Sister Rou is wrong!"

Concubine Jia clapped her hands and sighed: "Sometimes I only envy my sister, you can live arbitrarily, even the queen doesn't have a problem with you...... But my sister just said, the emperor doesn't feel sorry for Princess Jingyi, I have to shout for the emperor, in my opinion, since the prince in the palace, the emperor's favorite is Princess Jingyi! ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Concubine Rou frowned, her eyes still full of puzzlement.

"I know that Concubine Rou's sister is dissatisfied with Princess Jingyi's marriage, and I also know that my sister wants to marry Princess Jingyi to Daxuan, but has my sister ever thought about it, first, that Prince Murong asked to marry Princess Jingyuan, then if we Jingyi go, will it be valued by Prince Murong? And the mountains and rivers are far away, has Princess Jingyi been wronged, don't we have to worry all day long? One of them is also ......"

Looking at Concubine Rou's expression, although she was still frowning, she didn't listen to it at all like Fang Cai, and Concubine Jia's heart gradually returned to her stomach.

"Second, this Lord Ning is now a hot figure in the court, and he is recognized as capable, what Sister Roufei said to me a few days ago...... Could it be that Chengdu has forgotten? ”

Concubine Jia dragged out the last note, and glanced at Concubine Rou meaningfully.

Concubine Rou's eyes flashed, and her heart suddenly jumped suddenly.

It turned out that last time, it was Concubine Rou who proposed it, and she was willing to assist the second prince Chu Linghong to go further, and only asked Chu Linghong to treat Jingyi well in the future.

Suddenly, hearing Concubine Jia mention this again, Concubine Rou bit her lower lip: "Could it be that there is anything else to say in this?" ”

"Since Lord Ning is a person with real talent and learning, then my sister naturally hopes that he can do his best to assist the second prince!"

Seeing that Concubine Rou still didn't know anything, Concubine Jia took a deep breath and simply opened the skylight to say something.

"Now you also know that Lord Ning is from the prince's family, if our second prince really has a further opportunity in the future, do you say to use him or not to use him?"

Concubine Jia lowered her eyes, tapped her lips with a handkerchief, paused, and said, "Use it, don't worry, don't use it, it's a waste of talent...... But if Princess Jingyi can marry Lord Ning, all this will not be a problem! ”

Concubine Rou's heart trembled violently, and a little uncomfortable feeling immediately sprung up.

Concubine Jia's meaning is clearly to use her Jingyi as a tool!

"Hey!"

Seeing Concubine Rou's pale face, Concubine Jia's mind turned, so she chuckled again, patted her thigh and said, "My sister has always spoken straight, don't feel uncomfortable when my sister listens...... Although I just analyzed the pros and cons to my sister, but this is also a trend, isn't it? Sister rest assured, Princess Jingyi is the sister of our second prince, the second prince is good, can this sister and brother-in-law be worse? You say, don't you? ”

"Sister Jiafei's words make me not know what to say."

Concubine Rou gradually put away the expression on her face, and looked at Concubine Jia with some sarcasm: "Since my sister has such good eloquence, why don't you go to the emperor to state the pros and cons, and the emperor who can't say it can be said is directly moved and abolished the prince and the queen, then it's good!" ”

A flash of embarrassment flashed on Concubine Jia's face, but it was fleeting.

"Thanks to my sister's appreciation, I don't hide it from my sister, the emperor will indeed come to the Cloud Palace for dinner tonight, and the palace has already thought about it, if you can find the opportunity, you must persuade the emperor to form an alliance with Daxuan to jointly resist Xiyue......

After speaking, he looked at Concubine Rou meaningfully.

Concubine Rou's pupils shrank suddenly, and her nails suddenly pinched into her palms, leaving a deep mark in an instant, but Concubine Rou didn't realize it.

I don't know how long it took for Concubine Rou to take a deep breath, and the color on her face was a little complicated: "What Sister Concubine Jia said is true?" Are you really willing to persuade the emperor to form an alliance with Daxuan? So, what about General Yang? Is that what General Yang meant? ”

Concubine Jia pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course, what my sister said to me that day, after I thought about it carefully, I went to my brother to discuss, my brother is very grateful for his sister's kindness, and naturally he also wants to do something for his sister...... Now that there is a war in my sister's home country, my brother, as a general of the Li Kingdom, can listen to the emperor if he gives any suggestions......

After a pause, Concubine Jia chuckled again, and a touch of sorrow flashed in her eyes: "I think it is precisely because of my brother that the emperor is willing to come to the Tilting Cloud Palace to sit...... Alas, now, it is me who relies on my sister to live, if the second prince really fights in the future, our mother and son will definitely not forget their sister and Princess Jingyi, oh yes, and the love of the concubine! ”

For a while, the expression on Concubine Rou's face was a little uncertain, and her heart was like numbness, and even Concubine Jia said goodbye and left, but she never got up to see her off.

Fortunately, Concubine Jia didn't pay attention to it, only waved her hand so as not to disturb Concubine Rou's thoughts, and then returned to the Cloud Tilting Palace to prepare for the Holy Driver.

Limo Palace.

Bizhu secretly glanced at Jing Yuan, who was full of contemplation, thought about it, took an embroidered handkerchief and put it in front of Jing Yuan, and deliberately said with disgust: "Princess, in the past, you only said that the girl in her sleeve was clever, but you see, this is the handkerchief embroidered by the girl, saying that the goose is not like a goose, saying that the duck is not like a duck. ”

Jing Yuan took a look, and saw that the handkerchief was really embroidered in a mess, and there seemed to be a little blood on it, so he knew that the sleeve wanted to "work hard" again, but it still didn't work.

"This girl is clever in her sleeves, and the side is not bad, but this embroidery is a little worse, how to teach it can't be taught well, princess, do you say that this is in response to that sentence, 'the ruler is short, the inch is long', some things, people are destined to be born?"

Seeing that Jing Yuan's eyebrows were really loose, Bizhu took the opportunity to persuade him meaningfully.

Jing Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at the worried Bizhu, blinking: "You girl shouldn't be deliberately making Princess Ben happy, right?" ”

"Forehead ......"

Bizhu, who was poked in her heart, was a little confused all of a sudden, and she tied her hands, not knowing what to do.

Jing Yuan pursed his lips and smiled: "It's just being grounded, what's the big deal?" It's not the first time anyway...... Now this princess is very happy, you see that your sister Biru doesn't speak, that's because your sister Biru knows that your princess and I don't care at all! ”

"You little hoof, you don't think that our princess will be unhappy because of the marriage between Lord Ning and Princess Jingyi?"

Biru, who was embroidered with a purse on the side, glanced at Bizhu coldly, and then said: "If you have these thoughts, it is better to check all the people up and down our Limo Palace, so as to save the need for a slave like Hongfeng who betrays the master!" ”

Speaking of this, Bi Ru simply put down the work in her hand, looked at Jing Yuan with a solemn face and said: "Princess, Hongfeng committed suicide at this moment, it is really extraordinary, we should inquire about it, ......"

"The prince's brother must have sent someone to check on her family outside the palace, and the queen mother's side will definitely investigate her actions these days, who she has met and what she has said......"

Jing Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly: "Let's just wait patiently in Limo Palace, by the way, we can also be happy for Jingyi's royal sister, right?" ”

Although Bizhu was a little unclear, looking at the appearance of this princess, it seemed that she really didn't put Master Ning in her eyes, and suddenly put her heart in her stomach, thought about it, and really listened to Biru's words, and went to investigate the little palace maid and little eunuch in Limo Palace.

"Last night, I obviously sent someone to invite the prince's brother, but the prince's brother didn't show up......"

Jing Yuan frowned, and said to Biru with some concern: "You go to the East Palace to inquire and see what happened in the East Palace......

"Yes!"

As soon as Jing Yuan said, Bi Ru came back to her senses, not to mention that the prince didn't show up last night, most of the day has passed today, and no one from the East Palace came to ask, isn't it strange?

What Jing Yuan didn't know, because he received Jing Yuan's letter last night, the East Palace had been turned upside down, but the prince ordered it to be concealed, and no one was allowed to reveal half a word, so everyone didn't hear the news.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

There was another heart-rending cough, Chu Lingyu's face was flushed, and he opened the handkerchief placed on his mouth with trembling hands, and sure enough, the snow-white plate was already stained with blood.

"Your Highness, drink pear soup and press it......"

Laibao, who was waiting on the side, was full of worries, and trembled and personally served by his side.

Chu Lingyu forcibly endured the discomfort in his throat and barely took a few sips, before he said to Lai Bao as if comforting: "I'm fine, remember not to alarm my father and queen mother, I'm afraid they have already worried a lot last night......"
