Chapter 127: Wanting to Cover Up
This time, Ning Shangmo came just to form an alliance, afraid that the Xiliang Kingdom would be connived by the Northern Mongolia, so that the weak country would also become a strong country, so Da Ling would suffer from the enemy on his back, and he was afraid that he would be in a catastrophe. Therefore, it is naturally very perfunctory, and in front of Emperor Xiliang, he is a junior, and his attitude is very humble.
Emperor Xiliang was very useful, and welcomed them into the palace specially arranged for them in the palace.
The second prince of Xiliang and the prince of Xiliang have been following the old emperor.
Both of them had a little dark eyes, and Prince Xiliang saw that his father was so important to Da Ling's envoys, and he was very worried that the second prince would be supported by Da Ling, and his power would surpass him as the crown prince, and at that time, his position as crown prince would be in jeopardy.
The failure to successfully intercept the Da Ling Mission along the way made him very unhappy.
And the second prince Chu Yue was also unhappy in his heart, he left Da Ling Country in a hurry, and he didn't have time to further implement his plan. Originally, he was going to do something to prevent Ming Qingyan from coming to Xiliang with Ning Shangmo. However, after learning of the prince's actions from Ming Qingyan, he left Daling in a hurry in order to stop him.
Now that I think about it, it is likely that he fell for Ming's clever tricks. He was transferred away from the mountain, and he was able to accompany Ning Shangmo to Xiliang.
With him here, I am afraid that he will encounter a lot of trouble in the future, which is a headache for Chu Yue.
But if you are not happy in your heart, you will not be happy, but neither the prince nor Chu Yue will show it. Follow his father to settle Ning Shangmo and the others, and return to the imperial study.
"I heard that the eldest princess of Da Ling was attacked when she was staying in my Xiliang territory?" Emperor Xiliang rebuked very unhappily, "Whose jurisdiction is that area?" ”
"Tell my father, it is the jurisdiction of my son. Erchen had already found out that there was another Daling caravan staying in the hotel at the same time as them. It was they who offended people by forcibly seeking to rob in my Xiliang and not acting according to the rules, and were hunted down, and the eldest princess and they were affected by the pond fish. Fortunately, there were no casualties. Prince Xiliang immediately knelt on the ground and explained the matter.
"Two caravans staying at the same time? How could it be such a coincidence? Chu Yue was skeptical: "Is there someone who is playing tricks, obviously chasing and killing the caravan to retaliate, but in fact, it is against the eldest princess of Da Ling." And they seem to have encountered more than this one thing, didn't the eldest princess still say it? encountered ambushes several times on the road, if someone hadn't sent a letter, I was afraid that it would be difficult to escape. ”
"What do you mean? Did I send someone to do it, and then try to cover it up? When the prince heard this, he was annoyed, and pointed at Chu Yue and reprimanded.
"Big brother, you said it yourself, I'm just stating the facts." When Chu Yue heard this, he immediately shook his head very aggrievedly.
Seeing that the two sons were about to pinch up again, Emperor Xiliang hurriedly dissuaded: "Don't quarrel with any of you." The past will no longer be pursued, but from now on, no matter who you are, you have the responsibility to protect the safety of the eldest princess of Daling, and you can't let her have any more trouble in our Xiliang Royal Court. ”
Then, he stared at his two sons with stern eyes, and he knew that they had been fighting openly and secretly, and they both wanted to sit on the dragon chair. This is the tragedy of the emperor's family, there is no real family affection, and in the face of interests, they will only kill each other.
But he couldn't stop it, and whoever he passed on the throne to in the future would hurt a son and even start a war. He wanted to find a peaceful solution in his lifetime, but he had no choice.
Thinking of this, he flicked his sleeves very irritably and continued to command in a cold voice: "Not only before the birthday banquet, but to ensure that she can leave Xiliang safely, otherwise you two are the only ones who ask." ”
Chu Yue and the crown prince were really angry, and they all knelt down to accept the order and didn't dare to say anything more.
Besides, after Ning Shangmo and Ming Qingyan and the others rested in the palace, Leng Qingrong and Yun Yishu went out to check, but were stopped by the guards.
"Two distinguished guests, please go back, don't walk around without the emperor's edict in the forbidden place of the palace."
"Is this house arrest? You Xiliang treated my envoy like this? Leng Qingrong rebuked unhappily.
"I've never heard of an embassy being grounded." Yun Yishu also echoed, "We just go out for a walk, and we still need the emperor's message?" ”
"Two distinguished guests, that's what the top commanded, please forgive me." No matter what Leng Qingrong and Yun Yishu said, the guards just wouldn't let them out.
Helpless, the two had to return to the palace in a huff.
"Mo'er, they put us under house arrest." Yun Yishu entered the door and rushed straight into Ning Shangmo's bedroom.
At this time, Ning Shangmo was very tired because he was in a hurry for days, and he was lying on the bed to take a nap.
was so babbling in by her, and woke up again.
Before she could speak, Zhuye ran in and said, "Yunzhu, why did you come in?" Miss, she just lay down......"
Ning Shangmo waved at her and motioned for her to go out. Then he said to Yun Yishu: "It's still so reckless, fortunately, I let those Xiliang maids go to the backyard to drink tea and rest, if you don't let them see it, what's going on?" Don't forget that you're dressed as a man, how did you go straight into my bedroom? Where does this put my Da Ling country's face? ”
After hearing this, Yun Yishu said with self-reproach: "I'm sorry, Mo'er, I made a mistake again." ”
"That's it, let's not be an example. No one saw it anyway. Tell me, why are you in such a hurry to come back? Ning Shangmo got up from the bed, walked to her side, took her hand and asked.
"Mo'er, we are under house arrest, and we can't even get out of the door." Yun Yishu was very angry and said, "Doesn't this restrict our freedom? ”
"If you can't go out, don't go out, you go back to your room first to have a good rest, and then talk about it when you have enough spirits, anyway, in this palace, we will definitely be fine." Ning Shangmo not only did not get angry when he heard this, but comforted her like this.
Yun Yishu was very surprised and asked, "Aren't you angry at all?" I don't believe that's how they treated the envoys of other countries. ”
"What's the use of being angry? Maybe it's because Emperor Xiliang takes us too seriously that he treats us so kindly, listen to me go back to sleep, and wait for the dinner party. Ning Shangmo yawned loudly as he spoke, and then pushed Yun Yishu out of her bedroom: "Good, go back to the room and rest." ”
Yun Yishu had no choice but to walk to the side hall, she wanted to discuss countermeasures with her senior brother Leng Qingrong.
When I met him on the verandah, I couldn't help but ask, "Have you told Xiangye?" ”
"What's the matter?" Leng Qingrong asked with a puzzled expression.
Yun Yishu couldn't help but roll his eyes and said hatefully: "Are you amnesia?" ”
"Presumably Xiangye is resting, why bother him? Since I couldn't get out, I went back to my room to rest. Could it be that you just went to bother Shangmo? Leng Qingrong had an expression of hatred that iron could not become steel, shook his head and sighed: "You, when will you change your temper?" She doesn't look like a girl at all. ”
"Nonsense, if I'm like a girl, can I come out and catch fast?" Yun Yishu retorted in a displeased whisper.
"What did you say?" Leng Qingrong raised his eyebrows and asked, he seemed to be in a good mood.
"I didn't say anything, I've never seen an idiot like you, grounded, and laughing." Yun Yishu stomped his feet and said hatefully. She really couldn't figure it out, Ning Shangmo didn't care, he didn't even care. When he was stopped by the guards just now, he was obviously very angry, but in the blink of an eye, he changed his appearance.
"What grounding? Didn't Emperor Xiliang still hold a banquet to entertain us in the evening? How can it be a grounding? You, it's better to go back to sleep quietly, so that you can eat and drink with your belly open at night. These days are day and night, but my stomach is bitter. After speaking, Leng Qingrong stretched out his hand and put it on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Could it be that you want me to carry you back to rest?" ”
"You!" Yun Yishu had to roll his eyes when he heard him say this. Talking is like Ning Shangmo's tone. Sleep and sleep, since they are not worried about being grounded, she is even more lazy to care, anyway, if she wants to go out, just go over the wall. It's just a small guard, how can the people of Xiliang pay attention to her?
"If you dare to hug it, you can hug it, but if you let those Xiliang maids see it, you are not afraid of being treated as a broken sleeve. Hmph, when the time comes, it will not only be your face, but also Da Ling's face. She chuckled gloatingly. Don't think that she is still in Daling Capital, and you can carry her at every turn.
Leng Qingrong pretended to be helpless and hated: "Okay, you won." ”
Yun Yishu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, shook off his hand, and was about to go back to the room to rest.
But he didn't want to suddenly let his feet go into the air and be carried on his shoulders again. It's just that she didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear of welcoming Xiliang slave maid and ruining Da Ling's reputation, so she had to beat his chest with both hands and let him carry him back to the room.
"What's the matter, call me next door." Throwing her on the bed, Leng Qingrong's mouth hooked up a wicked smile, and before she could react, she had disappeared behind the door.
"Humph! I know that I am bullied, and I have the ability not to be grounded. Yun Yishu pulled over a quilt angrily, covered her head, and slept with it, what's the big deal, anyway, she is not the main envoy, so she is too lazy to care about these troublesome things.
The journey was so tiring that she closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
Here, the envoys of Da Ling are resting in the palace, but Tuoba Yanling and Zhu'er are not idle.
In front of the mansion of the second prince Chu Yue, there were many young women, all of whom came to register and select the women's guards.
"What's your name?"
"Ling'er."
"Do you have kung fu?"
"I'll know how to defend myself."
"Why are you wearing a face towel?"
"When a little girl was a child, she went up the mountain with her sister to collect medicine, fell off the cliff, and both of her faces were cut by thorns, so she would wear a face scarf."
"Your sister in the back?"
"Exactly."
"Let's go in, we can do a force selection."
"Thank you."
"Miss, we succeeded." Zhu'er walked into Tuoba Yanling excitedly and whispered.
"Don't make a fuss and forget what I told you?" Tuoba Yanling gave her a cold look.
Zhu'er stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say anything more, but followed her closely and entered the courtyard.
Eighteen weapons were placed in the courtyard, and ten women in red armor stood in public. Tuoba Yanling and Zhu'er suppressed fifty percent of their skills, pretended to be difficult to break through their interception, and were successfully selected for the women's guards.
Then began the life of the most basic women's guards.
