Coming out of the winery, Ning Shangmo went to the tea house again. The two shops were a little far away, so she ordered to take a shortcut.

After hearing this, the coachman said with great embarrassment: "Mrs. Prime Minister, the west side of the city has not been very peaceful recently, and I have heard that robberies often occur in secluded alleys. ”

"Doesn't our carriage have the mark of the Prime Minister's House? If you don't believe it, they dare to rob it! "Ning Shangmo didn't believe in that evil, so he had to copy the path.

The coachman had to drive the carriage to the secluded alley, which was very desolate, and the weeds on the side of the road were so deep that no one cared for it. There was also a feeling that the weather was not good, and there was a feeling of gloom, and the coachman was afraid, and shook the whip with a loud sound, driving the horse to run fast, and at the same time increasing the momentum.

Ning Shangmo lifted the sedan curtain, looked at such a desolate alley, and asked puzzledly: Coachman: "Why is no one living here?" I remember it wasn't like that. ”

"Back to the Prime Minister's wife, I heard that the training ground was originally going to be built, and the people of the previous residents were moved to other places, but the people moved away, but this training ground was not built. It became like this, and some of them who took a shortcut from here in a hurry ...... "The coachman did not dare to say any more, and whipped the horse's back again, and the horse suffered from pain and ran faster."

"Doesn't the government care?" Ning Shangmo asked puzzled.

"This is an abandoned alley, there are not many people, and the government naturally will not waste money and manpower here." The coachman replied.

As he was talking, suddenly, the horse suddenly fell to his knees with a "poof", and the car immediately rolled out on its side without stopping, and then hit the horse's buttocks and rolled over.

Ning Shangmo was shocked, fortunately, Ning Shangmo still had kung fu, and at the moment when the carriage overturned, she broke out, but the coachman and Zhuqing were both injured.

Just when Ning Shangmo wanted to step forward to see how the horse suddenly knelt down, a dozen masked men suddenly rushed out from all sides, "Leave the silver, let you wait for a way out." ”

"We have no money or money with us." Ning Shangmo squinted his eyes, moved his footsteps slightly, calmly replied, and protected the coachman and Zhuqing behind him.

"Those who take shortcuts from here are all in business, how can there be no silver? I guess this lady, you're not stupid, are you? I can't figure out whether money or life matters. As he spoke, the leader brandished his sword and slashed at him.

Ning Shangmo hurriedly said aloud: "You want silver, right?" Well, I'll give it to you, just come out in a hurry, and that's all there is to you. ”

As she spoke, she took out a few ingots of silver and threw them over.

"What about you sending Hanako? Brothers, come on! These two nice little ladies are not bad, grab them back to be Mrs. Zhai!. As he spoke, the bandit leader rushed forward brandishing a broadsword.

The coachman and Zhu Qing were injured, Ning Shangmo was invincible after all, naturally he was outnumbered, after all, one punch was difficult to defeat all hands, and when he was about to be captured, a person suddenly jumped out of the horizontal stab.

"How dare a bold thief do such a filthy thing in broad daylight! , take your life. He shouted loudly, and in the blink of an eye, the dozens of black-clothed people were all knocked to the ground, and Ning Shangmo was dumbfounded.

couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding: "Good kung fu, the hero is really good kung fu." ”

"Shang Mo, thank you for being so important, I am very frightened in my heart. Maybe it's to save you that you will be inspired to be so motivated. I saw that the man smiled at Ning Shangmo, his words were gentle and humble, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

Ning Shangmo waited to see the person clearly, but he couldn't help frowning, and asked in surprise: "Second prince?" How did you come to such a secluded place? ”

The man smiled warmly when he heard this: "Maybe the hearts and minds are connected." ”

The person who saved Ning Shangmo at the moment of crisis was none other than Chu Yue, the second prince of Xiliang.

Ning Shangmo was not only not confused by his tenderness, but had goosebumps, and asked unhappily: "I have no friendship with the second prince, how can I get along?" If these words are heard by others, it will damage your reputation and mine, and it will be a small matter, and it will not be misunderstood, but it will be a big matter, and it will be a big matter to laugh at the princess of Da Ling Xiliang who does not understand etiquette. ”

After speaking, Ning Shangmo bowed to him, "Thank you for the second prince for coming to the rescue today, presumably the second prince came to my Daling Capital this time, there must be something important, Shangmo, I won't delay your time, say goodbye." ”

The entourage of Chu Yue, the second prince of Xiliang, had already straightened the carriage, but fortunately, the coachman and Zhu Qing only suffered some skin injuries and were not in the way.

Ning Shangmo got into the carriage, and she asked the coachman softly: "Can you still catch the car?" ”

The coachman replied: "Don't worry, Mrs. Prime Minister, it's okay to catch the car." ”

Ning Shangmo nodded and rode away. After that, the carriage passed safely through the secluded alley that was about to be demolished, and was never intercepted by the gangsters.

Along the way, Ning Shangmo was puzzled, why did the second prince of Xiliang send Da Ling into Beijing at this time? What happened to the West Liang Kingdom?

"Miss, it's here." Zhu Qingqing called in a low voice before she came back to her senses.

After entering the Ning Ji Tea House, he hastily asked the shopkeeper about some matters, and then left with Zhuqing. When I went back, I didn't dare to walk the alley again, but obediently walked the official road.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was still thinking about the second prince of Xiliang, as well as the white jade pendant. It's obviously her object, how can it be in his hands? What really happened on the border between North Mongolia and Mongolia? How could she not remember anything to do with him, and yet he acted like she knew her very well?

How could she, who has always been cautious, have a memory gap? It's just horrible.

He walked with his head bowed and walked with his head down, and just ran straight into a person's arms.

Touching her aching chin and looking at the person who was knocked to the ground by herself, she couldn't help but stomp her feet and hate: "Ming said lightly, how can there be you anywhere, a good dog is not in the way!" ”

Ming Qingyan cried and mourned his face, rubbed his chest and touched his buttocks, got up from the ground with a sad face, and asked innocently: "Lady, you are unreasonable, did you hit me?" For the husband, I thought you were throwing yourself into your arms, who wanted to be hit by you, wouldn't it be someone who looked at him outside, and wanted to murder his husband when he went home? ”

"Who's out there? What nonsense,! Do I need to hit you if I want to murder you? so that you won't be so stupid. Ning Shangmo heard him say this, and knew that he hit him first, so he couldn't help but feel weak, and his voice was not so full.

After speaking, without waiting for Ming to say anything lightly, he hurriedly returned to Dongyuan with Zhu Qingqing.

Hu Ning Shangmo caught a glimpse of what seemed to be blood stains on Zhu Qing's arm, and he was surprised in his heart, could it be that they had encountered something outside?

Just when I was wondering, suddenly a small servant on the door came to the door to report, and Grandpa Hong was waiting in the study.

Ming Qingyan hurried over, and Gong Hong sent an edict from the emperor to announce that he had entered the palace.

On the way, Ming asked Gonggong Hong what was going on, but Gonggong Hong just told him that when he entered the palace, he would naturally know.

Ming said that he would not ask anymore, and he would not say anything. This time, Ning Shangmo was not announced to the palace, and it should be that the emperor came to him to discuss the affairs of the court.

Sure enough, when he entered the imperial study, Yan Nanhao really told him that Xiliang sent a messenger to Daling and summoned him to the palace to discuss countermeasures.

Ming Qingyan couldn't help but think of Ning Shangmo's strange appearance, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "But is the second prince of Xiliang here?" ”

Yan Nanhao nodded, "Exactly, and only with a few personal attendants." ”

"Why did you come here?" Ming couldn't help frowning, and the ominous premonition in his heart deepened.

"King Xiliang's sixtieth birthday, he specially came to invite him. And pointed out that if I don't go, I can only be replaced by the royal family. Yan Nanhao replied in embarrassment.

Imperial nobles? Who can there be, it's not Ning Shangmo who will go on his behalf!

He hasn't told Yunni about this yet. After a few turmoils, the missing string in his mind gradually began to grow. The blood of the Daling royal family is depressed, and the adult prince and princess can do it at this time, and only Ning Shangmo is alone. But how could he rest assured that she would send an envoy to Xiliang to congratulate the king of Xiliang on his behalf?

If you don't go, the second prince of Xiliang will send an invitation, wouldn't it be against the goodness of the invitation? If the king of Xiliang is angered, and the Northern Mongolian Kingdom takes the opportunity to form an alliance with him, and at the same time invades the border of Daling and Dameng, then the matter will be big.

Ning Shangmo, as the eldest princess of Daling, couldn't go, so he had to go in person.

But all this is a long way, and I don't know what the situation is over there, but he is the king of a country and should not move. Besides, Yun Guifei is pregnant, she is not careless, he is really reluctant to leave.

It was so difficult that he asked Ming to enter the palace to discuss.

When Ming Qingyan heard this, he also felt that this matter was not trivial, but he was afraid that it was not just as simple as celebrating his birthday, but he might have hidden some conspiracy. The emperor can't deign to go, so he can only be Ning Shangmo.

Originally, this matter was not a difficult thing for Ning Shangmo, and he naturally would not stop it, after all, as a royal family, this was her unshirkable responsibility. As the prime minister of Daling, although she is his wife, she still has this bearing.

However, as long as he thought of the entanglement of the second prince Chu Yue with Ning Shangmo, he frowned and bowed his head silently. When she went to Xiliang, she was undoubtedly in the mouth of a tiger. Chu Yue had come to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, and he had shouted at him, Ning Shangmo was not sure whose wife was.

Isn't the future uncertain?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yan Nanhao couldn't help but be anxious, and asked out loud: "Say it lightly, you can help me think of a complete solution." I'm still holding on to this, and Ni'er doesn't know about it. But I'm afraid that I won't be able to hide it for long, and I'm also afraid that once this matter spreads, Mo'er will definitely take the initiative to ask for help, and Ni'er will definitely stop me, and I will be in a dilemma. ”

"If Shang Mo doesn't go, then the emperor can't go in person, and this time he can only let Shang Mo replace him. Wechen really can't think of any good way ....... Ming whispered, his voice getting lower and lower.

He dared to conclude that the fundamental purpose of Chu Yue's visit to Daling this time was to force Ning Shangmo to go to Xiliang Kingdom to celebrate his birthday, and if he did not achieve his goal, he would definitely not stop.

And at this time, Beimeng Tuoba Yanling has not left yet, if the two are handed over, there will be side incidents, which will be even more unfavorable to Daling.

Although the national strength of Xiliang is slightly weak, I am afraid that it is also obscure and should not be underestimated over the years.

Now in Xiliang, the prince has married the old daughter of Wei Ge, and with the help of Wei Ge, he is obviously in an advantageous position in the battle of the royal family in Xiliang. If the second prince wants to suppress this advantage, he can only put his eyes on neighboring countries. And he has been in love with Ning Shangmo for a long time, which is an opportunity.

By wishing his birthday, he invited Ning Shangmo to Xiliang, and Shangmo was naturally the fish on his chopping board.

It seems that if you want to appease the second prince of Xiliang, you can only let Ning Shangmo be the envoy of Da Ling, lest he jump off the wall in a hurry and join forces with Beimeng. As for what will happen after entering Ruxi Liang, this can only be done and seems to be dealt with, after all, she still bears the name of his wife Mingxiang, and she can't allow that Chu Yue to be a weak talisman.

"It's good to come up with a way, or maybe I'll recognize a godson? And then send him to Xiliang? Yan Nanhao was also anxious to go to the doctor, and when he was in a hurry, his brain was also a mess.

"No! This is obviously perfunctory, for fear that it will anger King Xiliang. That's it, it's better to let Shangmo serve as an envoy, so that he can call the second prince of Xiliang. Although he was reluctant, he could only propose this.

"How's that going to work? How could I let Mo'er go on an adventure? The second prince of Xiliang was at the banquet of the Queen Mother, and I saw that he had a lot of snooping on Mo'er, and he seemed to have a bad heart. When Yan Nanhao heard this, he immediately waved his hand and refused, "Think of other ways." ”

Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly, if he could come up with other methods, would he still be able to come up with such a plan? Ning Shangmo is his wife, how could he really want her to send an envoy If she is snatched away by the second prince of Xiliang in the future, his reputation as a Ming minister who shocked the six countries will be lost? .

"Weichen went with her, although Shangmo is the eldest princess of Daling, but she also bears the name of my wife, I don't think they can help but have scruples." Ming spoke lightly again.

Yan Nanhao nodded when he heard this, and there was a trace of calm joy in his eyes. In fact, this is exactly what he planned in his heart, but it was said by him, which was different from him asking for his life in person. Indeed, there is no other way, and if it were not for him, he would not be distressed.

"It's just that I have wronged you and Shang Mo, so why should I bear it?" Yan Nanhao then sighed deeply, this was from the heart.

"Sharing worries for the emperor is a matter for Weichen and the eldest princess of Shangmo, the emperor must not be sad about this, the eldest princess Jiren has her own natural appearance, and Weichen will definitely give up his life to protect each other, and it will be fine." Ming's words to persuade the emperor are also persuading himself.

"At this time, Yun Guifei didn't know about it, and I didn't want Ni'er to know about it, lest she hurt her mind day and night, which would not be conducive to the safety of the baby. I will block the news in the palace, and only tell her that Shangmo will go to inspect the shops in other places, and I don't expect her to be suspicious. The second prince of Xiliang has been placed in a secret post station by me, and very few people know about it. Yan Nanhao advised.
