Chapter XXVIII
Shen Qing was driven by Ji Wuhuan to sit alone in a carriage, and the carriage bumped for a while before stopping, and after stopping, she heard the lively sound of people greeting each other.
Little Bean Sprouts came over and lifted the curtain of the car to help her down, and before she went out, someone sang loudly: "King Huainan, Princess Huainan are hereββ! β
The sound fell, and the people next to him immediately retreated.
Shen Qing raised his eyes and looked at Ji Wuhuan with a cold and hard face, and walked to his side with a dignified demeanor, his eyes were cold.
Ji Wuhuan glanced at her, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and walked inside.
Before they left, the people next to them gathered over: "Have you heard, this Huainan princess is amazing, vicious, domineering, and vicious, and vicious, and she is really a perfect match for this Huainan king who has killed countless people......
"But isn't it, I heard that the father and daughter of the demon king of the mixed world in the solemn mansion were driven to Zhuangzi, and even the housekeeper of the god prince broke his leg and drove him out of the mansion, tsk, the evil mother-in-law."
"It's called what pot and what lid......"
β¦β¦
The belittling voice was endless, and with Ji Wuhuan's skills, he could hear it clearly.
Shen Qing raised his eyes slightly and looked at him, seeing that his face did not change, he must have heard a lot of such gossip.
After a while, a gorgeously dressed grandmother came over with a smile: "Lord Wang, you are finally here, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has been waiting for you for a long time." β
"This king will go now." Ji Wuhuan said coldly.
The smile on Mama's face wilted a little, and when she turned her head to see Shen Qing following behind her, she put away her surprised look and said with a smile: "This is the new princess, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess specially prepared a warm pavilion, and called many official ladies to wait for the princess." β
Shen Qing looked at her ill-intentioned eyes, and her heart lifted slightly, but the grandmother immediately stepped forward to grab her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, princess, this is arranged by the eldest princess herself, and nothing will happen." After speaking, he looked at Ji Wuhuan with a smile: "Lord Wang, please, the eldest princess is still talking about you, the princess will let the slave maid help you serve, if there is a hair missing, you only ask the slave maid." β
Ji Wuhuan didn't say much, only said lightly: "Don't be late for the auspicious birthday." β
"What time is the auspicious time?" Shen Qing asked hurriedly.
Ji Wuhuan's slightly cool thin lips smiled more: "Half a quarter after noon." β
"Yes!" Shen Qing deliberately asked Ji Wuhuan to make the time clear, and she would have an excuse to leave at that time.
Mama's eyes flashed slightly, but she was confident.
After Ji Wuhuan left, she let go of Shen Qing's hand, and her attitude was much colder: "The emperor of Dayan drove the expedition in person and killed the eldest princess and the horse with his own hands, why did the princess still want to come over to celebrate her birthday?" β
Shen Qing's eyebrows jumped slightly: "When did it happen?" β
"You don't know?" The grandmother raised her voice, which sharply made Shen Qing's eyes feel a little cold, but she heard her say: "At that time, the master of the horse and the prince of Huainan went out together, and you were beaten to retreat to the three cities, if it weren't for the kindness of the saint today, who is willing to let you come over and make peace and get along with the two countries, you Dayan is afraid that it will no longer exist!" β
"Since Concubine Ben has been married, she is a member of Da Wei, and she has nothing to do with Da Yan. Mama's words, do you want to settle accounts with Dayan, or do you want to settle accounts with the prince? Shen Qing knew in his heart that they were blaming themselves for the death of the horse, and they also resented Ji Wuhuan who went out with the horse but survived.
On the bright side, they will not pierce this layer of window paper, and the eldest princess must of course put the country first.
The grandmother laughed neatly again, as if she had never been angry: "Don't misunderstand, the princess, the slave and maid told you this, and I also hope that when you see the eldest princess, don't make her old man angry, she is not in good health." β
Seeing this, Shen Qing naturally stopped stumbling on this topic, but all the things that will happen today are probably the causes.
She walked forward with her grandmother, and when she went out today, she didn't bring the little bean sprouts with her, and Ji Wuhuan also took all the people away, and it seemed that she was deliberately left behind to become the object of the eldest princess's personal anger. She remembered what Sang Rou had said to him that night when he found her and asked her to go with him for his birthday. Sang Rou was worried that he would be harassed, so they chose to take themselves with them.
The corners of Shen Qing's mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile, this King of Huainan is really indifferent and ruthless!
"Oh, the slave remembers that there is one more important thing to do, princess, there is only a short way left, why don't you go over by yourself?" Mama said suddenly.
Shen Qing raised his eyes and looked, in front of the corridor, there was a towering rockery, and he couldn't see what was behind it at all.
"What's the matter?"
Mama had already prepared, and looked embarrassed: "It was the eldest princess who specially explained, I hope the queen will come over later, and the slave must prepare the queen's favorite yokan......
Without waiting for this grandmother to finish speaking, Shen Qing smiled and said, "What does it matter to me whether you live or die?" Mama looks like a clever person, haven't you heard of the notoriety of this concubine's ruthlessness? β
"You ββ!" Mama was choked speechless, so she had to put away the smile on her face, turned her head with a calm face and led Shen Qing to continue forward.
Shen Qing looked at her dripping eyes, and her bad premonition became stronger and stronger, and sure enough, as she bypassed the rockery, she saw three or four strong little guys waiting early.
When those people saw that Mama was also coming, they were obviously surprised, and they quickly put away their expressions and stepped forward to salute.
The grandmother looked back at Shen Qing before she said to a few people: "Is it all ready?" β
"Ready." The little guy responded.
Mama's face was even darker, she leaned sideways to one side, and said to Shen Qing: "Princess, go past the bridge on the left, go up to the second floor, and the ladies are waiting there." β
Shen Qing raised his eyes and looked, there were two bridges in front of him, the one on the left that this grandmother said, it looked narrow, it was an auxiliary, but the two roads led in different directions.
Shen Qing wasn't sure which one was safer for a while, so he walked to the left side that Mama said, but looking at her relieved look, Wan Er smiled: "The scenery on the right seems to be good, Mama, why don't we take a walk first?" β
"But ......"
Before the grandmother's words were finished, a young man in scarlet clothes was seen at the end of the bridge on the right: "Princess, here!" β
When Shen Qing saw Ji Rui, the smile in his eyes was even worse, but when he saw the man walking behind him, he was like a heavy blow, without saying a word, he lowered his head and hurried to the bridge on the left, even if there were jackals, tigers and leopards there, it was safer than seeing him now!
