Chapter 153: A Coincidental Encounter
Although the emperor was very sad, this was the ancestral system, and there was nothing he could do. The only thing she could do was to choose a good coffin for her and bury her by the palace people, instead of abandoning the corpse in the wilderness and letting the wild dogs eat it.
Soon after, the crown princess asked to see her.
Ning Shangmo knew that the eldest princess of Xiliang was not really dead, so he naturally would not be sad in his heart, but his face showed an expression of pain. When talking to the crown princess, it was also a little upside-down at first, as if she was frightened and overly sad.
She did this deliberately, after all, the matter of the eldest princess of Xiliang could not be told to anyone in the royal family. In this way, she and her chief guard can truly live a happy and peaceful life in the clouds and wild cranes.
The crown princess is such a smart person, she naturally has to try her best to disguise herself so as not to show flaws.
Then she seemed to be trying to calm herself, and then she implicitly told the crown princess that the matter of their alliance could not be noticed by Chu Yue a little, if he did not take precautions, it would be unfavorable to them.
On the surface, they can still be very indifferent, so that they can confuse Chu Yue.
The prince is too straightforward, it is better not to show it so obviously, this is also for their common plan, to bring that person down.
The crown princess was very moved when she heard her heartfelt words. She was also delighted, she didn't expect Ning Shangmo to ally with them, and she still couldn't believe it when she heard the prince go back. Now, listening to her with my own ears, this is really reassuring. Seeing that she sincerely planned for their alliance everywhere, she was naturally even happier and regarded her as a confidant. It can be regarded as a sympathy between talented women.
It's just that she feels ashamed that she married a reckless prince. And she is married to the famous minister of the Six Kingdoms, but she thought that the prince would be the emperor in the future, but it was above ten million people. And no matter how talented Ming Qingyan is, he is a minister after all, not a king.
In this way, her heart is balanced. Women are like this, no matter when, they will compare themselves with people who are similar to themselves, either proud or angry.
After the crown princess said goodbye and left, Ning Shangmo lay down on the bed again to rest.
It wasn't until dinner time that I got up and drank a little porridge.
After a while, she went to bed again.
Seeing that she could sleep so well, Zhuye was very worried and asked her if she was not feeling well.
Ning Shangmo said that he was not uncomfortable, he just wanted to sleep, so that she didn't have to worry about her, just go to the front to take care of Xiangye.
At the same time as she slept, Yun Yishu also slept, seeing that the two of them were sleeping in such a race against time, Zhu Ye seemed to understand something, and he didn't ask any more.
At about three o'clock in the evening, Ning Shangmo got up quietly, cleaned up a little, and prepared to go out.
But he didn't want to be intercepted by the bamboo leaves, "Miss, where are you going?" ”
Ning Shangmo couldn't help but sigh lightly, it was really a sticky little tail, and then pretended to be displeased and said, "Hurry up and go back to sleep obediently, just don't know." At this time, naturally no one will come to look for it, if there is, say that I am asleep, and I will talk about it tomorrow. ”
Zhu Ye said very aggrievedly: "Miss, if you don't let Zhu Ye follow, I will be very worried, how can I fall asleep?" ”
"If you can't sleep, I'll give you some sleeping holes." Ning Shangmo's face was pale, and he said that he wanted to give her some acupoints.
Zhuye hurriedly begged for mercy, "Miss, don't, can't I go back to sleep?" You can be careful, go early and come back early. ”
Ning Shangmo nodded and said with a smile: "Didn't I count it myself?" Do you want you to tell me? ”
Then she turned and went out, then to the western wall, and prepared to climb over the wall again. This palace is close to the Imperial Garden, which is a good opportunity to climb over the wall and get out of the palace late at night.
But this time, Ning Shangmo did not climb over the wall, but wore a man's clothes, ready to swagger out of the palace gate.
The waist card that the queen gave her to assist Leng Qingrong in assisting the prince in handling the case was still on her. She hadn't talked about it with Ming Qingyan and the others in the afternoon, and wanted to wait until she used it tonight to see if the situation was handed over to Leng Qingrong, or if she could keep it for herself.
Coming out of the palace over the wall, he walked to the path out of the palace gate.
There was always a dark shadow following her behind her, Ning Shangmo couldn't help but sigh when she noticed it, here she is again, it is really a little ghost, it is not easy for her to go out.
"Yun'er, what are you doing with me? Go back quickly. She stopped suddenly, and the dark shadow was caught off guard and almost hit her.
"You, how do you know it's me?" Yun Yishu saw that he was recognized, so he had to take off his mask and asked very unwillingly.
"Others don't know about your fast catching skills, don't I know about it?" Ning Shangmo smiled faintly, "I can smell your breath far away, if not, how can it be regarded as your good friend?" ”
Yun Yishu said helplessly when he heard this: "You can't pretend not to know? I won't do you any harm, I will only save you once at a critical moment. ”
"Don't worry, I'm just going out quietly to see, there will be no danger. You don't have to follow me, just go back to sleep. Ning Shangmo whispered: "If you are disobedient, I don't mind ordering her and throwing her here." Let the people of Xiliang Palace watch your liveliness tomorrow. ”
After Yun Yishu heard this, he immediately stomped his feet and said hatefully: "Mo'er, you are so ruthless." But I've slept all afternoon, and I can't sleep when I go back now, so I might as well watch and follow you to protect you. Don't worry, I will never get out of the way when you don't need me, and when you need me......"
Before she finished speaking, she was dumb by Ning Shangmo, and then warned: "You, if you don't go back, I'll give you some sleeping holes." ”
As soon as Yun Yishu heard this, he immediately ran back. While running, she muttered in her heart, her dignified Daling Jingcheng is flying fast, when has she ever been so embarrassed? If it weren't for the fact that she was the eldest princess of Da Ling and her good friend, she wouldn't have let her succeed! It would have made her beg her to come along.
After all, it wasn't true, and she still had to go back to sleep obediently. If it weren't for her, she didn't want to be slept by Ning Shangmo and thrown into the flowers beside the road, and waited in embarrassment to be found by the palace people of Xiliang Palace the next day.
Ning Shangmo solved this last annoyance, and then continued to walk towards the palace gate.
Before arriving at the palace gate, another figure appeared.
This time she didn't guess who it was, so she had to stand still and wait for the person to come over on its own.
"Shang Mo." A familiar and unfamiliar whisper almost made Ning Shangmo scream, how could it be him!
But soon she calmed herself down, which was so good that she didn't have to go out of the palace to find him in his house. And the waist card given by the queen doesn't have to be taken out.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince?" She replied softly, "How are you?" ”
Chu Yue put his index finger to his lips and whispered to her, "You follow me, don't speak." ”
Ning Shangmo nodded, and according to his words, the two walked towards the palace gate one after the other.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, do you still want to leave the palace at such a late hour?" A guard asked flatteringly.
"It is said that there is no need to go out of the palace, but today is special, the day after tomorrow is the birthday of my father, I still have a lot of things to prepare for tomorrow, I can only go out of the palace today, if I am not afraid that it will delay things." Chu Yue replied in a deep voice.
Naturally, the guards didn't dare to ask anything more, so they let him out.
But when he saw Ning Shangmo behind him, he asked out loud: "This is ......?"
"My guard, Niu Li has other arrangements today, can't I change the guard?" Chu Yue asked very unhappily.
"Don't dare, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, please!" The guard smiled flatteringly.
Chu Yue snorted coldly and walked away, while Ning Shangmo followed closely behind him, until he left the palace far away, he stopped and said to Ning Shangmo with a smile: "Shangmo has worked hard. ”
"It's not hard, His Royal Highness the Second Prince......"
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chu Yue and said loudly: "I know you will come out to find me tonight, I have been waiting for you." ”
"How do you know?" Ning Shangmo asked in surprise when she heard this, she was a little worried that she had noticed the matter between her and the prince's alliance.
"My father's birthday is approaching, and you are about to leave Xiliang, how can you not ask me for some things? Isn't that the real purpose of your coming to Xiliang? Chu Yue smiled slightly and asked confidently.
Ning Shangmo couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he was really not an ordinary character, and he actually noticed these thoughts of her.
Without waiting for her to say anything, Chu Yue smiled again: "Follow me to the Prince's Mansion, let's make a pot of good tea, and listen to me tell you about it carefully." ”
Ning Shangmo couldn't help frowning, "Why did you go to your mansion?" It's better to go to the Mandarin Duck Tower, where it's still lively, wouldn't it be better? ”
"It's too noisy, it will affect your and my chat." Chu Yue smiled slightly: "And I am the prince, and I have never been to such a place of fireworks." ”
"But last time...... "Ning Shangmo, do you remember that last time she wasn't intercepted by him when she came out of the mandarin duck?" Who is he fooling if he doesn't go to the land of fireworks? It's really shameless to talk nonsense with your eyes open, pretending to be high.
Chu Yue seemed to sense her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Last time, I was also for you, if it weren't for you, how could I be there?" ”
It's all lies, it's almost the same to deceive a three-year-old child, but Ning Shangmo doesn't bother to argue with him, what does he have to do with her? Since you don't want to go to the Mandarin Duck Tower, it's better to go to the Prince's Mansion, the reaction process is not important, the purpose is important.
She stopped talking, and used silence to represent her protest, but still obediently followed Chu Yue back to his prince's mansion.
In the side hall, Chu Yue instructed the servant to make a pot of good tea, and then said to Ning Shangmo: "Why don't we eat some wine and food?" Spice up the conversation a little more? ”
Ning Shangmo smiled slightly, and asked out loud: "Could it be that those past events are all interesting?" ”
Chu Yue smiled awkwardly, "Okay, then let's have tea and talk." ”
"Listen up." Ning Shangmo put on a listening appearance, but Chu Yue was silent. The expression on his face was complicated, as if he was immersed in a memory of the past.
Ning Shangmo waited for a while and didn't see her speak, so he had to ask out loud, "Why don't you talk about it?" ”
