Chapter 111: Conspiracy to feign illness
That night, Qixiangyuan opened the door again to do business.
Gu Ningyan walked in directly from the backyard and stood on the second floor overlooking the bustle downstairs.
"Is Princess Lan still satisfied?" Yanran shook the red silk in her hand and walked up.
Gu Ningyan looked at the two women who were tied up and nodded with satisfaction, "Your method is good, the price is clearly marked, and the idea is good." ”
"In our Qixiang Garden, if there are disobedient people, they will be controlled, the price will be clearly marked, and they will be sold, so that they can stay here obediently."
Gu Ningyan understood what Yanran meant, but she still couldn't bear it in her heart. So he explained, "You did the right thing, but, after all, they are the people who were given to the emperor by local officials, and they can't go too far, let's take them back first." ”
Yan Ran got the order, and immediately went down and ordered the two women to be brought down in a hurry, but the lustful men were not satisfied, so she came forward to appease everyone, and gave wine to each table as an explanation.
After dealing with the following matters, Yan Ran returned to Princess Lan's side and asked. "Princess Lan, you've already thought about it, right?"
Gu Ningyan asked with a smile, "How do you know that I agreed?" ”
Yanran smiled and said, "Isn't sending these two women the best answer?" ”
Gu Ningyan landed on Yanran's body with an appreciative gaze, "You are really wronged by falling into the dust." ”
"So, I hope Princess Lan can help me."
"Tell me, how do you want me to help you?" This Yanran is wise and beautiful, and she is definitely not from a folk girl, so Gu Ningyan is becoming more and more curious about her identity.
"Princess Lan rest assured, Yanran will never harm you, I can only tell you now that I have a blood feud with King Qing and the Situ family, and I must let my family rest assured." Yan Ran's low words were full of grief.
Since people can't say much now, Gu Ningyan doesn't ask much, "Okay, I won't ask more, you said how long it will take to put this place into mine?" ”
"Don't worry, I'll replace all the people I don't need later, and when the time comes, I promise to give Princess Lan a brand new Qixiangyuan." She was very sure of her assurances.
Gu Ningyan patted Yanran on the shoulder and said, "Okay, with your words, I will wait for your good news." ”
"Princess Lan believes in Yanran, and Yanran will not let you down, Princess."
In the end, Gu Ningyan instructed Yan Ran to arrange for his subordinates to send the two women to King Qing's Mansion, she just wanted to disgust Wei Tingtang.
Qingwang Mansion, Wei Tingtang is furious in the mansion at the moment, and all the subordinates and others in the mansion dare not approach.
He looked at the holy decree in his hand, and the more he thought about it, the more he became angry, not only was King Zhen not dead, but in the end, such a dangerous crowd actually fell on his head, could she not be angry?
"Brother Qinghuang, my brother heard that you are in a bad mood." The fourth prince Wei Yifan walked in along the door.
When King Qing saw someone coming, he asked indifferently, "Why are you here?" ”
The fourth prince closed the door and quietly walked in front of King Qing and said, "Brother Qinghuang, do you want to know why Brother Emperor Zhen didn't die?" Do you want to know who is helping him? ”
Wei Tingtang's eyebrows flashed with a hint of fierceness, "Who is it?" You know? ”
"It was Uncle Lan who arranged for elite soldiers to protect King Zhen's side, so that we didn't succeed, and Uncle Lan Huang is still King Zhen's person." The fourth prince said with slightly squinted eyes.
Wei Tingtang swept down the things on the table and smashed his fists on the table, "It's Uncle Lan Huang again, he always has to get along with me, hateful." ”
"Brother Qinghuang, do you still want to be silent, you should make a decision immediately, Uncle Lan Huang must not stay." The fourth prince kept persuading King Qing in his ear to make a decision as soon as possible.
And King Qing seemed to be very interested in the words of the four princes, and his eyes became more and more bloodthirsty, "You are right, this king must make up his mind as soon as possible, but we can't come openly, and secretly we are not Gu Ningyan's opponent, what do you say?" ”
"Brother Qinghuang, you should be sick, and you are very sick and can't go out, the identity of the envoy should find someone with identity to show the sincerity of our Beiwei, and now you should immediately summon Imperial Doctor Lin to prescribe medicine." The four princes came up with ideas in King Qing's ear.
Wei Tingtang immediately understood what the four princes meant, and immediately beckoned his men to come down, and went to the palace to invite the imperial doctor, saying that he was now seriously ill and bedridden.
Subsequently, the palace received the news of King Qing's serious illness, and Imperial Physician Lin said that King Qing had eaten something bad, resulting in damage to his stomach, and he could only recuperate in the near future, and he couldn't go anywhere.
When the emperor heard this, he only waved his hand silently and motioned for Imperial Doctor Lin to go down, and the others did not say anything more.
Lan Wangfu naturally heard the news that King Qing was seriously ill.
Gu Ningyan touched Wei Qianlan, who was lying beside him, and asked, "Do you believe that Wei Tingtang was still alive the day before, and he got sick immediately?" ”
"I don't believe it." Wei Qianlan stretched out his hand sideways, took the person into his arms very cherishingly, and tenderly imprinted a kiss on her forehead.
Gu Ningyan wrapped around Wei Qianlan's silver thread and said softly, "I think he just wants to avoid going to Southern Qin, presumably the emperor also knows about him arranging for someone to assassinate King Zhen in the army, otherwise, he would not have ordered him to accompany him to Southern Qin." ”
"Your guess should be right, he just doesn't want to go to Nanqin, and he also knows that this is a lot of bad luck, so he used this kind of excuse for being indiscriminate."
"Who do you think the emperor will arrange for next?" Wei Qianlan asked the person in his arms with a chuckle.
Gu Ningyan turned over and lay directly on Wei Qianlan's body, showing an ambiguous posture up and down.
"Then who do you think it will be, prince?" Wei Qianlan hugged the person above and asked.
Gu Ningyan padd his chin on Wei Qianlan's chest, thinking about it and not taking it
made up his mind, "The emperor has so many sons, who to send is not a matter of his words." ”
"Besides, the second prince of Southern Qin is coming, I'm curious, how could this prince who is the main warlord agree to come to Beiwei, I don't think it's that simple." Gu Ningyan was very curious about Nan Qin's purpose in his heart.
Wei Qianlan turned over with a force, and the two switched positions and scraped the bridge of the nose of the person under him, "Spring Festival, let's stop talking about these useless things, let's hurry up and do our own things." ”
"Old and unscrupulous." Gu Ningyan smiled shyly and clapped his hands on Wei Qianlan's shoulders.
"Dare to say that I am old, see how I teach you."
"You're an imperial uncle, and I don't recognize you as old."
"I'll show you tonight, am I old?"
"Hooligans." After Wei Qianlan finished speaking, he put his hands up and down...
Under the moon, the sound in the room became more and more intense.
Following.
Gu Ningyan and Ling Ningshuang left the city early.
Just as they arrived at the foot of Shenjue Mountain, they suddenly kept coming out from the front, and there was a sound of fighting.
Gu Ningyan immediately became vigilant and stopped Ling Ningshuang from advancing, and the two of them hid in the dark and secretly looked at the source of the sound of the fight.
I saw that in the distance, more than a dozen men in black were besieging two young men.
The two young men were good, but they were still outnumbered and gradually defeated, and the other taller one had not yet protected the man beside him
The son was wounded.
The tall man should be a guard, and the other man should be his master.
"Shall we help those two young men?" Ling Ningshuang persuaded Gu Ningyan to make a move.
However, he was stopped by Gu Ningyan, "Don't move, you don't know martial arts and spiritual arts, besides, we don't know who is good and who is bad on both sides, let's take a look first." ”
Following Gu Ningyan's words, Ling Ningshuang obediently hid to the side to observe.
"The tricks of this group of black-clothed men are so familiar, and those two young men shouldn't be from our Beiwei." Gu Ningyan quietly instructed Ling Ningshuang again, "You stay and don't move, I'll go." ”
"You-" Before Ling Ningshuang could open her mouth and tell her to be careful, the people around her had disappeared, and the black-clothed people on the opposite side landed one by one.
The two men looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in shock, but in the end, it was the man who was dressed in luxury clothes who spoke first. "Thank you for saving your life."
Seeing this, Ling Ningshuang rushed over and hugged Gu Ningyan's arm, "The movements are so handsome." ”
"Of course." Gu Ningyan replied to Ling Ningshuang with a smug smile, and then his gaze turned back to the noble man's body, "What did you just say?" ”
The noble man was stunned for a moment, and said, "I want to say thank you for saving your life." ”
"No need." Gu Ningyan felt uncomfortable with the gentle smile of the man in front of him, especially the man's eyes, which were obviously gloomy. "Me
Let's go. ”
Although Ling Ningshuang didn't understand what Gu Ningyan meant, she obediently followed her footsteps and left.
It was a long distance before she asked, "Aren't you curious about who the person you saved is?" ”
"There's nothing to ask, if I'm not mistaken, that richly dressed prince should be the second prince who is coming from Nanqin." Judging from the fact that the other party is dressed similarly to the prince of Nanqin, it should be the same as he guessed.
"Speaking of which, he wears a belt very similar to the Prince of Southern Qin." After Gu Ningyan said this, Ling Ningshuang also remembered the other party she had just seen.
"So we can't talk to him, now the two countries are in a sensitive situation, not to mention that you are still Tanglin." Gu Ningyan reminded Ling Ningshuang that at this moment, her identity is sensitive and must not be mixed up, even if she is only a princess of a country.
After getting Gu Ningyan's explanation, Ling Ningshuang knew the seriousness of the matter, "I understand what you said, I won't talk nonsense." ”
"Master, you're here."
"Miss."
Gu Ningyan watched Sixiang happily jump in front of him, tugged at his ear and said, "You have been cultivating in the Qiu family recently, and you have gained a lot of weight." ”
"I think so." Ling Ningshuang echoed.
Sixiang was reluctant, "I'm not fat, I've eaten very little recently." ”
"Come on, you, don't talk nonsense, I'm going to see the phoenix under the divine spring."
Gu Ningyan jumped off the Divine Spring, the secret passage here had been blocked, she gently lifted the bottom plate of the Divine Spring, and explained to Granny Qiuyue and Ling Ningshuang, "You guard, I'll go down with Sixiang to take a look." ”
"I want to go too." Ling Ningshuang said that she also wanted to follow.
But he was vetoed by Gu Ningyan, "You can't do it, stay on it with peace of mind." ”
was ordered to stay, Ling Ningshuang could only pout and obey, "Okay, I'll take it with me." ”
