Chapter 160: Temptation

Nalan He was not guided to the palace where Ji Xue was located, but sent someone to guide Nalan He to the imperial garden in the palace.

Although it is an imperial garden, Yanmo rarely comes here, and Ji Xue's two brothers do not live in the palace, so over time, this place will be returned to Ji Xue's private territory by default.

The Imperial Garden is very large, making a pattern of three islands and two mountains, indicating the yearning for the land of immortals, and it is also known as the fairyland of the world.

Ji Xue still likes this imperial garden very much, if nothing else, all the big red peonies in this garden are planted according to her words. Coincidentally, Ji Xue also likes this big red and luxurious flower, and there are other varieties of peonies, but they are just one or two.

I heard that the crown princess in the prince's mansion also planted a lot, but this variety is definitely not as complete as the palace flowers, which have been transformed and cultivated by florists, so that there are newly planted big red peony flowers in full bloom in the imperial garden in any season.

Ji Xue sat in the gazebo, the summer was scorching, the heat outside was steaming in the air, and the shape of the transparent flame could be faintly seen, as if it was constantly burning, this flowing fire was really irritable.

Under the big red gauze is a seductive snow white and tender, no one in the palace looks at Ji Xue, lest they offend her, winter is their favorite season, because the princess wears a lot, they will not be gouged out of their eyes.

Ji Xue had a huge red peony in her hand, and looking at the branch handle and spikes, she didn't even feel prickly.

"The prince of Dian has arrived?" Ji Xue's eyes wandered, and fell on a father-in-law beside her, Lin Chaowen was sent out by her to run errands, and Tian Ye was also sent by her to watch the movements in the Guanghan Palace.

Tian Ye is one of Ji Xue's subordinates who has recently been promoted.

It's rare that there is no male pet around Ji Xue today, if people watch a group of men around a woman all day long, that charming and flattering appearance makes people want to vomit.

Feeling that his eyes were falling on him, his father-in-law hurriedly said: "Back to the princess, the news from the front said that it will arrive soon." ”

Ji Xue didn't respond, she looked away, and when she saw the lotus flowers in full bloom in the pond, her eyes were gloomy, this lotus flower is really disgusting.

The only disadvantage of the peony is that it cannot be planted in water, it can only be confined to the soil, and can only exist in the imperial garden where she grows.

If she is a peony, it must not only be opened in this place, but it must be opened in more places, and it is best to open it all over the Wei country.

Ji Xue suddenly remembered that the national flower of Wei seemed to be the plum blossom chosen by the mother emperor.

My thoughts drifted a little away......

"See Her Royal Highness the Princess." A sudden male voice broke into Ji Xue's ears and pulled Ji Xue, who was confused and his eyes were scattered, back.

"Huh? Oh, it's Prince Nalan here. Ji Xue sat up straight, pointed to the position next to her, and motioned for Nalan He to sit next to her.

After Nalan and He saluted, he sat down beside her according to Ji Xue's instructions. looked at Ji Xue with a smile, not knowing what the princess called him over for.

I have heard that this princess of Bao'an has outstanding appearance, she likes red clothes, this appearance is still a little childish, but this dress is very gorgeous, in the eyes of others, it seems that the little sister stole her sister's clothes, and this clothes are still a little exposed.

Nalan He also felt that Ji Xue's dress was a little too revealing, so he didn't dare to look at her directly, his eyes touched the white and silky calf skin under her red veil and hurriedly took it back, his face was full of embarrassment, and his ears were a little crimson, looking very innocent, Ji Xue, who had been through men and women for a long time, looked funny.

With a soft snort, Ji Xue waved her sleeves at the palace people and motioned for them all to go down.

When the palace people saw that the princess drove them away, they also retreated one after another, and retreated directly to a place dozens of steps outside the pavilion, just watching from a distance, unless they had clairvoyance and ears, they could know what they were talking about.

Ji Xue chose this place very cleverly, the surrounding vision is very wide, she can't hide the people who peek, and her eyeliner is also covered with her, if someone eavesdrops and peeks, she can be found immediately.

It doesn't matter if you find out, except for the one in the imperial study, there is really no one in this palace who poses any threat to Ji Xue, let alone complaining, after all, Ji Xue's terrifying methods in the palace are tacitly understood by everyone.

"Do you know why the main hall is looking for you today?" Ji Xue didn't care whether Nalan Hehe needed to drink tea or something, Wu Zi took a pot of white jade porcelain bottles on the stone table of the pavilion in his hand, and poured the wine glass directly to his mouth.

Nalan Hehe was a little shocked when he saw Ji Xue's style of acting, outsiders said that Princess Ji Xue Yuxue of Bao'an was cute, lively and cheerful, and won the favor of the Emperor of Wei, and even Ji Xue liked to wear red clothes and inquired about it in private.

In private, he was so profligate? It's amazing.

"I don't know if it's true." Nalan shook his head lightly.

Ji Xue smiled slightly, and didn't plan to go around in circles with Nalan and Heduo, and was silent for a while and said, "Imperial Doctor Lu"

Speaking of Imperial Physician Lu, Nalan He's gaze immediately sharpened.

"The prince's little joke is not very good." Ji Xue said with a slight mockery, from the time she knew that Nalan Jihe and her brother Ji Nan were going to unite to hold a flower banquet in the Prince's Mansion, she had already firmly set her eyes on him.

After all, it was done in the Prince's Mansion, and if something happened, it would be the target of everyone.

If this Nalan Jihe caused trouble for his brother, then they would be friends.

Now, she has invited this "friend" to the door.

"Did the princess say what happened at the flower banquet last night? It is said that a fat woman fainted after eating. Nalan He was sloppy and deliberately said the official words that Imperial Doctor Lu said yesterday. Anyway, it had nothing to do with him from beginning to end.

"The prince laughed this time, Imperial Doctor Lu is my person, I don't know what he came back to report? The people in the palace who are most familiar with flowers and plants are under my hands. ”

Nalan He's heart skipped a slight beat, trying to imply that this was Ji Xue's words to deceive him, and he couldn't be easily fooled.

"It's a very slight pollen poisoning, which was deliberately triggered." Ji Xue was also very amused when she saw Nalan Hehe's deliberately calm appearance, was she not completely sure that she would take the initiative to find him?

"Is the prince not enough to bring manpower? Still need you to get your hands dirty? I passed by the fat woman three times, and it didn't taste good to squeeze into the fat meat, right? ”

Ji Xue is like peeling the skin of an onion, revealing layer by layer.

Hearing that he had been observed several times by the woman's side, he couldn't help but be a little incredulous, to be honest, he himself couldn't remember how many times he passed by the woman's side yesterday.

"The prince had this action when he first arrived, it was too careless, it seems that Ling Mei told you carefully, it seems that the prince didn't take it to heart." The smile on Ji Xue's face deepened.

As if feeling a little thirsty after saying too much, Ji Xue raised her head and drank the wine in the wine jug, then threw the wine bottle aside and took something out of her arms. A small porcelain vase with a blue body and a white background, the thickness of a thumb, the kind that can't stand on the table.

"Would you like to try it, prince?" Ji Xue took the porcelain vase and shook it at Nalan Hehe, which seemed to be a bit of a show-off.

This time, Nalan Hehe's original calm expression on his face couldn't be maintained, he didn't know when his words and deeds were actually seen by others, and the investigation was clear.

Originally, I wondered if Ji Xue was cheating on herself, but it seems that people have already figured themselves out, which is really ridiculous.

"But the prince doesn't have to worry too much, those eyes and ears of the palace are all for you one by one, in the Wei country, the palace still protects you." Ji Xue said this to the big one, in fact, she just sent someone to secretly follow Nalan and He to observe his every move.

As for the other people who are staring at Nalan Jihe, what does it matter to her?

Nalan and He are not stupid, they are suspicious of Ji Xue's words, but about yesterday's flower banquet, I didn't expect it to be discovered.

But it didn't hurt, after all, at that time, Imperial Doctor Lu had already said that the fat woman was eating, not poisoned, and she was safe and sound.

"In this way, thank you princess." Nalan and Hepi said with a smile, since there is a feeling of being exposed, there is no need to hide what it looks like.

"Do you know why this temple will help you?" Ji Xue played with her scarlet fingernails, her curled and thick eyelashes drooped slightly, covering her eyes and seeing the emotions inside.

Nalan He felt a little inexplicable, Ji Xue wouldn't think that she could get him in this way, right?

"If the princess has something to say, she might as well say it directly."

Hearing Nalan Jihe's cold and disdainful tone, Ji Xue's face suddenly sank, got up from the stool, and walked in front of him to stand still.

Looking at this bland face, Ji Xue really hates it unspeakably, she likes men, she feels ugly and disgusting when she sees an ordinary face, and she wants to vomit.

Only the handsome are worthy of standing by her side.

"Wei State, it must be from the main hall in the future." Ji Xue said word by word, her voice was very low, and the words were indeed very heavy.

Nalan He couldn't help but raise his head slightly to look at her, and the moment he looked at her, Ji Xue's eyes gave him a feeling of great ambition, which was completely different from the impression he had of Ji Xue when he came to the garden, as if he had changed a person.

obviously looks like an innocent face, but he likes to wear clothes in a mature and kitsch style, but what he thinks about is the desire to seize the country. Funny, really funny.

"The first emperor of Wei was the empress." Nalan He said for no reason, and then continued: "Nalan is waiting for another empress from your country." ”

Ji Xue looked at Nalan Hehe's face with a look that didn't seem to be fake, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her chest.

"The princess is a bold one, you and I have never met, and I have seen it for the first time today, this kind of courage, Nalan admires." Nalan He said with some puzzlement.

"Now that you have gone out of the Imperial Garden to tell others that my main palace wants to seek power and usurp the throne, who do you think can trust? Moreover, this temple still has evidence of your poisoning.

Do you believe that you, a foreigner, framed your own princess, or do you believe that His Royal Highness said that you poisoned and murdered the prince? If you are really disobedient, do you think you can get out of this royal garden? What is the current strength of your Dian Kingdom, don't you have any points in your heart? ”

Ji Xue had already planned everything, so she was fully prepared to find Nalan Hehe today. In the past five years of conquest, the Dian State was not as energetic as the Wei State, and its vitality was still damaged.

But from the current point of view, the strength of the Dian State is already lagging behind the Wei State, which has a lot of land and resources.

In Yanmo's words: "A small border country wants to use its mantis arm as a car, and it is not self-sufficient." ”
