The ceremonial officer stepped back and wiped the beads of sweat from his head, but this time, his performance was better than the last time, at least not crawling out of it.

"Princess, it's not a way for us to stay like this, do you want to inform the prince?" Ah Jian stood aside, he had been anxious for a long time, and in two days, it would be the day of the coronation, if he couldn't get out now, and when he entered the palace in the next day, the guards in this palace were even stricter than those in the East Palace, and it would be even more difficult for them to get out.

"Don't reveal it to Brother Qing, he must be busy at the moment." She heard that Concubine Yi had escaped from the palace, although she didn't know if she had returned to Xichu, but before she fled, she would definitely not forget Yan Shiqing.

Ah Jian sighed and didn't speak again, Yu Qiqi had been sitting like this for several days, although she was not injured in the fight that day, but the injury in her heart seemed to be more serious, and she barely spoke.

She could only stay by Yu Qiqi's side silently, afraid that she wouldn't be able to think about it.

The night before learning that Emperor Yan Jing was killed, a man in black broke into the Proton Mansion, Yan Shiqing's eyes lit up, he sat up from the soft couch, and shouted to the comer, "Who are you?!" "The man who came didn't seem to want to take his life, the weapon in her hand, unopened, did not pose a threat to him.

"Qing'er, it's me."

Concubine Yi's voice sounded in the dark light, Yan Shiqing blurted out a sentence, "Mother...", and hurriedly got up, found a fire fold and lit a candle.

"How did you escape from the palace?" He looked at her in a daze, Gu Xia was very strict with her, and this was a secret that he personally told him.

"There will be a big event in the Yanjing Palace tonight, you go with your mother!" The concubine's face was full of anxiety and hurry, and the charm in her eyes faded, leaving only the deep affection of licking the calf.

"You, grandfather, did he do it? His eyes lit up, and a trace of uneasy thought appeared in his heart.

"Your grandfather has always been ruthless, this time he has made up his mind to act, and at this juncture, it is the perfect time for you to leave!"

Concubine Yi tugged his hand and pulled it out, but she didn't pull it, she glanced back, his expression was extremely complicated, "You're not leaving?" She looked at him in amazement.

"The seventh sister is still here, I can't go." His face, covered by the dim yellow candlelight, cast a gloomy silhouette.

"She is Nangong Yan's crown princess, and she will also ascend to the back seat in the future, if Nangong Yan has that ability, he will definitely be able to protect her, if he doesn't have that ability, then he can only blame her for being blessed!"

A fierce color flashed in Concubine Yi's eyes, it wasn't that she was ruthless, but now, no one was more important than Yan Shiqing!

These words are very similar to the words that Yan Shiqing said when Lin Chaoge was in trouble, he froze and tore off her hand, "I won't leave Seventh Sister, Mother, you go quickly." "He's made up his mind.

"You! Are you really not leaving?! ”

Concubine Yi was in a hurry, she didn't expect her biological son to be so dead-eyed!

"Don't go!" He was resolute, and his eyes shone with determination.

She sighed helplessly, being young and vigorous is like this, always thinking that love can surpass everything, looking at him like this, it is a bit like what she was at the beginning.

"Okay, then Mother will go by herself." She withdrew her eyes, and when she was about to turn around, a silver needle suddenly flung out of her cuff and pierced the acupoint on his neck, and he immediately fainted.

When Qing Yu heard the sound, she was looking at Concubine Yi and Yan Shiqing coming out of the house, his body was covered with a long robe, and she scolded Qing Yu, "Go and prepare a carriage!" ”

"Concubine Yi Niangniang, you can't take the prince away!" Qingyu is loyal, even if the identity of the concubine is special, he can't let her come nonsense!

"There will be a big incident in the palace tonight, and you prince will only die if you stay here! Are you going or not?! ”

Her expression was awe-inspiring, and her words carried a command, and there was no room for resistance.

"Minions, let's go!"

As soon as these words came out, Qing Yu's face immediately changed, he knew the priorities, and immediately pulled out his legs and ran to prepare the carriage.

The night was like frost, and when Song Gao's old department started, the carriage had already driven out of Yanjing City.

Emperor Yan Jing was killed, and the identity of this proton can no longer be counted, and Yan Shiqing can be regarded as a free body. When he woke up, it was already the second day, and the carriage was about to reach the boundary of Xichu.

"Wake up."

Concubine Yi sat in front of him, saw him wake up, poured him a cup of tea, and put it in front of him.

"Why did you get me out?" Yan Shiqing twisted his eyebrows and asked her, he hadn't forgotten what happened last night.

"If I let you be so stubborn, you must be dead at this moment, now Yanjing City is full of Nangong Yan's people, do you think he will give you a place to stay? When the time comes, don't mention protecting Yu Qiqi, it will be difficult for you to connect close to her. ”

Concubine Yi stared at him, her face full of concern.

Yan Shiqing looked at him, she was right, he was too impulsive last night, he was in a hurry, he didn't expect this. Now that Emperor Yan Jing is gone, Gu Xia naturally wants to do things for him, and other forces will also come under his command, and if he wants to make friends, there is no other way.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he lifted the curtain and glanced out, although the carriage was about to reach the boundary of Xichu, but on this plank road, turn east, and go less than twenty miles, it is Huizhou, he should go to see the old marquis Lin first. After all, he hadn't even seen him in person since the last incident.

"Mother, I want to go to Huizhou first." He put down the curtain and said calmly to the concubine.

Concubine Yi's expression tightened, "What are you going to do in Huizhou?" ”

"Go to visit an old man. The pursuers behind will definitely chase along Western Chu and Nanzhao, and we will go to Huizhou to avoid their pursuit. ”

Concubine Yi is so nervous, she is afraid that the pursuers behind will catch up, which Yan Shiqing knows. She thought about it, Yan Shiqing was right, and nodded.

"Qingyu, go to Huizhou!"

The next moment, he shouted to Qingyu, who was driving the car outside.

"Yes, Lord Shizi!" Qing Yu's hand grasping the reins of the carriage turned, and the carriage headed east.

......

In the palace of the king of Xichu County, the king of Xichu County held the talisman in his hand, and rubbed his fingers back and forth on it, since the last time he was whipped outside the palace of Emperor Xichu, the strength in his hands was weakened, and Emperor Xichu knew that his imperial brother had no second thoughts, but he was a little impatient, if he had too many troops in his hands, it was easy to have accidents.

But this time, Emperor Yan Jing's matter, he did a good job, and Emperor Xichu knew that he was planning to let the tiger return to the mountain, which happened to eliminate Nangong Yan's vigilance.

Therefore, his military power, not long after Emperor Yan Jing was killed, Emperor Western Chu returned it to his hands.

"County Master, there is a mess in Yanjing City now, although Nangong Yan has stabilized the hearts of the people, he has not stabilized the hearts of the people." Wu Lian bowed his head at him, always telling him of the movements in Yanjing City.

"The new emperor ascends the throne, this is inevitable." Although Nangong Yan has been on the throne of the crown prince for many years, he has also done a lot of political affairs for the benefit of the people, and he has some reputation among the people, but in the end, he ascended the throne in a hurry, and this doubt is inevitable.

And the stability of the heart is only temporary, presumably there are still many voices of disobedience under the court.

The hand holding the talisman tightened, and he said coldly: "First raise troops towards the border of Yanjing." "He wants to hit Nangong Yan by surprise first.

"Son, go down and prepare!" Dance mercy commands.

"Wait." Before she was about to retreat, the king of Xichu County behind her called her back. She turned around, only to hear him say faintly: "Yi'er's movements, you send someone to keep an eye on it." ”

Clenching the palms of his hands, Wu responded pitifully, "Yes." Then he retreated with a nervous expression.

On that day, Song Gao's old department came back to tell him that the Liangxi Palace was empty, and he knew that Concubine Yi was not going to come back, she knew that there was no good fruit to eat when she came back, but this was the daughter he cultivated single-handedly, and he had to be tied to his side to feel at ease, if it fell into the hands of others and was used by others, then he would lose a lot.

Although Wu Lian intended to help Yi Concubine, he didn't dare to disobey his orders, and his trust in her was still there.

But this time, he was wrong.

After taking the talisman given by the king of Xichu County, finding his subordinate Chiying, and relaying the words of the king of Xichu to him, Wu Lian called a maidservant girl Luzhu next to her and asked her to find the whereabouts of the concubine.

Luzhu is the person she has saved, and she only recognizes her as the master, and immediately nodded in response, a green shadow flashed, and the person was gone.

Wu Lian looked back at the county king's pavilion of the county king of Xichu, and there was a coldness in her eyes, she could listen to any orders he had, but about the matter of the concubine, she couldn't be ruthless to help him.

People's hearts are all flesh and blood, not to mention the family affection that blood is thicker than water.

He can be a cold-blooded and ruthless father, but she can't be a heartless mother.

......

When the ceremonial official relayed Yu Qiqi's reaction to Nangong Yan again, he couldn't hold the fold in his hand immediately, the courtiers above the court needed him to appease, and the people under the court needed him to appease, even Yu Qiqi had to make trouble with him at this juncture, she could be emotional, but could she not be at this juncture, when he was busy with this group of things? !

"Let Chu Peiyu solve it."

He twisted his brow, and then reached out and rubbed his brow.

Seeing that he was upset and irritable, and that there was a mountain of folds on the table, the ceremonial officer responded in a low voice very knowingly, and turned around to run Chu Peiyu.

Chu Peiyu is not loose here, he has to be busy with the deployment of the palace, Gu Xia is in charge of the security of the entire Yanjing City, the two of them are busy with their own things, they are too busy to do it, and they can't get along at all.

The old forces of Song Gaoeun in the palace must be eliminated, and the number of people in the palace must be counted, and everyone's identity must be clarified, and he has a lot of things in his hands.

When the ceremonial official ran in front of him, he was still counting the number of people in the palace, and on the notebook in front of him, everyone's name was densely written, and below, there were rows of palace maids and eunuchs.

He waited on the side for a long time, almost when the sun was setting, Chu Peiyu was busy for a while, his face was already a little tired, and the corner of his eyes swept to the ceremonial officer who had been standing beside him for a long time, and he slowly spoke, "Is there something wrong with my lord?" ”

The ceremonial officer hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head slightly to him, "General Chu, Weichen has served the emperor's order to go to the East Palace to teach the crown princess to perform the coronation ceremony, and the day after tomorrow is the day of coronation, but the crown princess is unwilling to learn, let alone come to participate in the coronation ceremony the day after tomorrow, Weichen has no idea, the emperor is busy with everything, and he can't take care of it, so he asked Weichen to come to you and want you to give an idea." ”

Chu Peiyu's eyes darkened, he was too busy in the past two days, he forgot that the person was still in the East Palace, and her maid Ajian, that day out of the sun, she must have a grudge against Nangong Yan in her heart, let alone ascend to the back seat, even if she came to this palace to get along with Nangong Yan every day, she might not be willing.

But no matter what, she is always the crown princess of His Royal Highness, he frowned and looked at the ceremonial official, "I'll go to the East Palace in a while." ”

"General Xie Chu."

The celebrant hurriedly thanked him and presented him with the gift of the coronation, so that he could serve on his behalf.

Chu Peiyu bowed slightly, and took the gift book aside.

When he returned to the East Palace, the dim sunlight had already shrouded a corner of the Yaoguang Palace, glowing with layers of golden light, but under this brilliant light, there was a crumbling heart.

Taking the gift book in his hand, Chu Peiyu walked towards the palace gate, and from a distance, Zhao Niang saw his figure, and a trace of joy floated on her face, "General Chu, you are here." She seemed to have been looking forward to it for a long time, and even her words were full of excitement.

"Crown Princess, are you okay?" He stopped and asked in a deep voice.

Zhao Niang immediately shook her head, a layer of gloom appeared on her face, "It's very bad." "I didn't even eat a few bites of food, how good can it be.

"Take me in."

He pursed his lips and let Zhao Niang walk in front.

When Ah Jian saw Zhao Niang bring Chu Peiyu in, her face immediately changed, even if she saw Chu Peiyu at this moment, her face would not be good.

"Crown Princess, General Chu is here."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Niang's report came out, Ah Jian immediately scolded: "Zhao Niang, what are you bringing him in?" What the crown princess wants to see is Nangong Yan, not a lackey beside him! ”

The words she scolded were very ugly.

"Ah Jian, don't be so angry, General Chu is a person valued by the emperor..."Zhao Niang's tone of voice to Ah Jian was much gentler than usual, and there was also a sense of persuasion.

"Zhao Niang."

She wanted to persuade a few more words, but Chu Peiyu stopped her mouth, so she had to purse her lips and teeth and stop.

"Miss Ajian, I didn't come to quarrel with you today, the emperor sent me here to remember that I still have some old feelings with the crown princess, and the princess may be able to listen to what I said." Chu Peiyu's voice is very gentle, he has never been good at speaking, but he seems to be very good at talking at the moment.

"I'm not going to quarrel with you, I'm just talking about things, Nangong Yan did such a thing, could it be that he didn't have the face to come to see our princess?!"

Ah Jian called Nangong Yan's name, which was already a big taboo.

Chu Peiyu's brows furrowed, if she shouted like this in the palace, she would definitely be slapped, but at this juncture, he didn't have time to pursue this, so he only warned her in a deep voice, "Miss Ajian should be careful when she speaks, don't make a big taboo." ”

Ah Jian heard the meaning of his words and pursed his lips.

Yu Qiqi, who had been facing away from Chu Peiyu, turned around and patted the back of Ah Jian's hand, and then looked at Chu Peiyu and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

He lowered his head and spoke humbly, "Crown Princess, I only hope that you will hear what you say next, and I don't want others to shake your mind." ”

"You! Ah Jian immediately pointed out his hand at him angrily, and he knew that the person he was alluding to was her.

"You go out first."

Yu Qiqi gave the order.

Zhao Niang pulled Ah Jian and hurriedly retreated.

Without the scolding of Ah Jian, the dormitory was quiet for a while, and Yu Qiqi's eyes finally fell on the gift book he was holding, "You want to persuade me to go to the coronation?" Her expression was still faint, and she couldn't see a trace of emotion.

Chu Peiyu looked at the gift book in his hand and answered, "Yes." Then he continued: "Since the crown princess married His Royal Highness, she has suffered a lot of grievances, and she dare not say how good His Royal Highness is to the crown princess, but His Royal Highness is not a person who is confused to the end, he naturally knows what to do and what not to do." Although he kept saying that he wanted to abolish the crown princess in the past, but so many things have happened, if he really wanted to find out your guilt, he would have found out thousands of ways long ago, and he would not let the crown princess stay in the East Palace for so long. ”

Hearing this, Yu Qiqi felt funny, "You mean, he still has room for me?" Is that all he said about the charges he put on my head? ”

Chu Peiyu didn't delve into these things with her, but only said what she wanted to say in her heart, "Your Highness is just scaring and scaring the crown princess, and wants the crown princess to obey him and stay in this east palace in peace, not really do anything hurtful to the crown princess." His mother has left him since he was a child, and the lack in his heart can only be made up for from Wan Niangniang, so he will tolerate Wan Niangniang, but for the crown princess, he doesn't really want to be ruthless. ”

He felt that at this moment, he was like an old lady in the palace, persuading his master to reconcile with the king and cultivate a hundred years of harmony.

"You are the person next to him, and after being by his side for so long, it is natural to speak to him." Yu Qiqi lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

"Could it be that the crown princess wants to ruin this marriage contract and return to Nanzhao, so that His Royal Highness can meet you in the future?" As a last resort, Chu Peiyu had no choice but to say such rebellious words to her.

"Bang!"

The tea cup in Yu Qiqi's hand fell heavily on the table, and she roared at Chu Peiyu, "It's Nangong Yan who wants to meet me with the blade!" ”

She remembered the situation that night, every scene very clearly, Nangong Yan's cold eyes, she also remembered very clearly, if there was no hate, who would believe it?

"That night, it was His Highness's fault, otherwise he would not have fallen into the plot of the traitor." In this matter, Chu Peiyu naturally couldn't take advantage of it, and the momentum of what he said was a little weaker.

"I don't care about this, but what he did to me, it's difficult for me to get into this position again!" She uttered this cruel sentence word by word.

Chu Peiyu sighed in his heart, the words had come to this, and what he wanted to say anything more was to no avail.

When the sun had completely sunk, he opened the door of the temple and stepped out of it, still holding the book in his hand.

Ah Jian stopped and stretched out his hand, and the sword in his hand was halfway out of the scabbard, blocking his way, "Apologize to me!" Her tone was very tough.

"Miss Ajian, I don't want to do anything with you." The matter was not done well, and Chu Peiyu's mood was not good.

"This girl has to do it today!"

The injury on the back of her hand is healed, and the anger in her heart has nowhere to come out these days, and Chu Peiyu's words just now annoyed her again, so she naturally won't let him go so easily!

As soon as the words fell, the sword in her hand had come out of its sheath, her eyes were sharp, and the sword was stabbed to the vital point, leaving no trace of affection.

There was a feeling of boredom in his heart, Chu Peiyu directly reached out and grabbed her sword blade, and with a stroke of the long sword, a long mark slipped out of his palm, and blood dripped down from her blade, which was very eye-catching.

"Why don't you fight back?!"

Ah Jian was shocked, and a wave of panic appeared on his face.

"I don't want to do anything with you." He stared at her, his eyes dark, without a hint of attack.

"I..."

She was a little overwhelmed by his staring, and her heart was pounding from her heart, as if it was about to burst out of her heart.

Chu Peiyu let go of his hand and walked past her, smelling a trace of blood on the tip of his nose, he ignored the scars on his palms and left with frustration.

Ah Jian held the sword in his hand and stood in place.

Zhao Niang, who was holding the basin of water, came back, and saw her stunned, the sword in her hand was still dripping blood, and her face changed immediately, "Oh, what did you do impulsively?" ”

She hurriedly followed the bloodstains and looked, and Chu Peiyu's figure was gone.

Chu Peiyu stood outside the imperial study for a moment before he walked inside, presented the book of rites in his hand, and said with his head bowed: "Your Majesty, you are not doing your job well, please ask the emperor to surrender." ”

Nangong Yan raised his head and saw the scar in the palm of his hand, "It was injured by Ajian?" "No one is so impulsive except for Ajian.

He raised his eyebrows, "It's okay to be humble." ”

Nangong Yan's eyes flashed, and he slowly spoke: "Go down and deal with the wound, you don't have to worry about this matter." He motioned to the attendants who were serving, and went down to take the book from him.

After being silent for a moment, Chu Peiyu opened his mouth and replied, "Emperor Xie." ”

When he withdrew, a glimmer of light had risen in the night sky, and the stars hung on it, but it still did not light his eyes.

After Nangong Yan finished reading the recital, when he was already a child, the attendant beside him stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to rest?" ”

His eyes fell on the book of rites on the side, slightly sick, she was really so decisive, this queen's position is inappropriate, is she going to reconcile with him?

But their family business is for the stability of the two countries, not for them to say that they can leave if they want to.

Besides, he didn't want to leave.

His hand brushed over the writing.

"Well, rest." Finally, he answered.

The attendant bowed his head and waited for him to rest.

In the middle of the night, he got up from the dragon couch, stepped on the night, and returned to the East Palace. He inherited not a single thing in the temple.

He followed his memory, found the box on the library, reached out to open it, and took out the small crossbow inside. After that, a gold-trimmed robe disappeared into the darkness and headed towards the Yaoguang Palace.

Yu Qiqi didn't expect that Nangong Yan would come to her when she was asleep, in the dark, she twisted her eyebrows, took out the dagger hidden under the pillow, and asked sharply: "Who?!" ”

In front of him, a candle lit up, and after that, the entire inner sanctum was illuminated.

She made up her mind, only then did she see the person in front of her clearly, and the dagger in her hand immediately stabbed at him without leaving any way! But he held his wrist with one hand, "I haven't seen you for two days, but your temper is good." His tone was light, not at all as cold as before.

She glanced at him coldly, "The emperor has denied me the stigma of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and he still wants me to whisper to you?" ”

"I was wrong about that night." It's rare that he will take the initiative to admit his mistakes to her.

"Then let me stab you." Her words were cold, and her eyes were cold.

The next moment, Nangong Yan let go of her hand, the dagger in her hand stabbed into his heart, the blood passed through his dark brocade robe, dyed a layer of dark color, Yu Qiqi smelled blood, her eyes shrank slightly. She didn't expect him to let go so simply.

"If you're not satisfied, stab again." He drew the dagger and handed it to her, breathing heavily.

Yu Qiqi held the dagger, and when he was about to stab it, he froze for a moment, and he couldn't bear it. Suddenly, her wrist was heavy, and Nangong Yan grabbed it and stabbed it hard.

"What are you doing?!" Her voice was faintly filled with a hint of anxiety.

"This time, it's your turn to owe me a knife." He endured the pain and raised an eyebrow at her. Beads of sweat were already forming on his forehead, and his lips were pale.

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!"

She let go of the dagger and turned away, not letting herself see his miserable appearance.

"This, for you."

Nangong Yan smiled weakly and spread his hand towards her, holding the small crossbow in his hand.

Yu Qiqi looked down and saw the small crossbow that was discovered by Zhao Niang before, his eyes were stunned, but his mouth was still stiff, "I don't want it." ”

"I've been buying it for a long time, and I wanted to give it to you at that time, but I never thought that you would go to Fanhualou to drink." He said weakly.

Yu Qiqi knew that Zhao Niang was right, this little crossbow, he really wanted to give it to her.

Seeing that she didn't react, he continued, "I know, you love these gadgets the most, when you married Nanzhao, you didn't take any treasures, but only these gadgets that the boudoir women don't love." At that time, I was thinking, you should be different from those boudoir women, you are hearty and generous, and you will not hide your emotions at all, let alone make those intrigue schemes.

When I met you, I knew I was right. It's just that at that time, I only had Wanniang in my eyes, even if you didn't do it, I would still shield her and talk to her, which made you suffer a lot of grievances, but I never wanted to really drive you out of the East Palace, nor did I want to abolish you as a princess, my princess will always have only one, that is, you, Yu Qiqi. ”

Nangong Yan put the small crossbow in his hand into her hand and shook her hand.

His eyes were wet, his face was cold, and Yu Qiqi realized that his tears had fallen unconsciously.

"Midorimoan, dead?"

Suddenly, she asked.

In the past two days, she has been staying in the Yaoguang Palace, and she only listened to one or two sentences in a daze about the things outside, she only knew that Emperor Yan Jing was killed and died, and Lu Yin seemed to be dead.

"Hmm."

Nangong Yan only responded, he didn't want to say a word about Lu Yin.

The tip of her nose smelled the pungent smell of blood again, and she remembered that he had been stabbed twice in the heart, "I'll help you with the wound." She lowered her eyes and hurriedly untied his shirt.

His clothes were stained with blood, and when he untied it, he touched Nangong Yan's wound, he frowned, and let out a muffled snort in his mouth, "Why is there no bloody nature just now?" ”

Yu Qiqi mocked him, wasn't he quite able to bear it just now.

"I wanted to install it just now, but I don't have to install it now."

He replied crisply, not like a clever one.

Yu Qiqi couldn't help but laugh and helped him clean up the wound on his chest. After bandaging, Nangong Yan got down from her soft couch and helped her lie back, "Tomorrow, I'll take you into the palace." ”

He whispered, his broad palm caressing her forehead.

"Hmm." She nodded slightly, closing her eyes.

Nangong Yan extinguished the candlelight in the inner hall and returned to the palace. When he lay down on the dragon couch, he frowned, cold sweat oozed from his back, and the wound on his chest was about the worst injury he had ever suffered in his life.

The attendant heard the muffled snort of the inner hall and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you want the servants to go in and serve?" ”

"No need."

Inside, his cold response was heard.

The attendant's expression was grim, and he didn't dare to ask again.

On the second day, seeing Yu Qiqi's good mood, Ah Jian and Zhao Niang glanced at each other, not knowing what happened, or if she suddenly figured it out.

"I'll prepare two breakfasts in a while, and Your Highness will probably come over to eat together." She couldn't change her words for a while, and occasionally called him His Highness.

"Princess, you can't be Ecstasy again, are you?"

Ah Jian stepped forward to see if she was hypnotized.

Zhao Niang immediately knocked her on the head, "Hurry up and help the crown princess freshen up, I'll go prepare breakfast." Ah Jian was in pain and moved away from a face that had come to her.

"I'm not hypnotized."

She answered, her eyes clear, but it didn't look like someone was controlling her mind.

"In short, the slaves and maids listen to you." Ajian replied sullenly.

When the ceremonial officer was still dressing in the house, someone came to the palace to inform him that Yu Qiqi would enter the palace today, and when she entered the palace, he was going to enter the palace to teach her the coronation ceremony.

He lowered his head and straightened his clothes, not daring to leave a trace of wrinkles.

When Zhao Niang prepared breakfast, Nangong Yan walked in from outside, although he had a smile on his face, his face didn't look very good, Zhao Niang only thought that maybe he didn't sleep well last night, and didn't think much about it.

"Are you alright?"

As soon as Yu Qiqi saw him, he hurriedly asked.

The note on the side was confused.

"It's fine." Nangong Yan had more eyes than her, so she only whispered a word, then sat down and had breakfast with her.

Yu Qiqi saw his concerns, so he didn't say much, stirred the millet porridge in his hand, and took a sip. She hasn't eaten well for several days, and she will be really hungry, and she has eaten more than half of the millet porridge that she can't eat more than two bites on weekdays.

Seeing that her appetite had improved, Zhao Niang relieved herself.

After breakfast, Zhao Niang stayed to deal with the follow-up matters of the East Palace, Emperor Yan Jing's incident was unexpected, and there were still many things to clean up in the East Palace, and Ah Jian followed Yu Qiqi to the palace.

She and Chu Peiyu both followed outside the sedan chair, and when they saw Chu Peiyu, she opened her mouth and asked, "How is your injury?" It doesn't matter, right? ”

Chu Peiyu glanced down and said indifferently, "It's okay." ”

"That's good." Ah Jian muttered, presumably aware of the impulse of the day.

The pedestrians on the street, seeing the splendid carriage, knew that the people sitting in it must be of high status, and hurriedly retreated to the side.

"The hearts of the people of Yanjing also need to be stabilized." Nangong Yan glanced outside, and when he saw the turbulent people, his words were not good.

Yu Qiqi rarely saw him look so sympathetic to the people, and there was a trace of imperceptible emotion in his eyes, "Is there any minister in the court who can help you?" ”

If a monarch wants to stabilize the hearts of the people, he is naturally indispensable to the assistance of his courtiers, and it is not enough to carry those things by one person.

"Yes, there are, but there are many courtiers who are still attached to their father, and the first thing they think of is to find out the real culprit who harmed their father and give their father justice, but right now, if you don't settle down first, how can you get the strength to go to the king of Xichu County to ask for an explanation."

Above the court, it was divided into two factions, which was his biggest headache.

Seeing that his brows were furrowed, Yu Qiqi looked frustrated that he had nothing to do, and stretched out his hand, covering the back of his hand, and comforting him, "They will see your intentions." ”

"I hope so."

After a moment, he slowly uttered these three words.

Then he collapsed, resting on her knees, his eyes closed, and now she was the only one to lean on.

Yu Qiqi's hand was on his back and gently stroked.

When the carriage stopped outside the palace, Nangong Yan slowly opened his eyes, he hadn't slept peacefully in the past few days, only pillowed on Yu Qiqi's knees, and slept well.

"I asked Chu Peiyu to take you to your dormitory."

After getting out of the carriage, Nangong Yan whispered to her. Then he called Chu Peiyu and asked him to leave with Yu Qiqi first. He went back to the imperial study, and as soon as he arrived outside the door, he saw Gu Xia standing outside and anxiously pacing back and forth.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he hurriedly raised his head, and when he saw Nangong Yan, he immediately greeted him, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the border is in a hurry!" ”

Nangong Yan's brows furrowed suddenly, "What's the matter?" ”

"Chiying, the deputy general under the king of Xichu County, with an army of 30,000, raised the flag and came to the border pass, and the defense line of the border pass has been broken twice!"

He presented a letter from Liu Chong, the general of the border guards, and he could literally feel the anxiety of the war on it.

"How many soldiers are guarding the border gates?" Emperor Yanjing guarded him before, and did not reveal the strength of the guards at the border pass to him.

"There are less than 30,000..."

Gu Xia said resignedly.

"How many troops can be transferred out of Yanjing City?" At this moment, whether it is the border pass or the Yanjing territory, the troops cannot be moved, if it is withdrawn, it is inevitable that it will not be beaten by Xichu or Nanzhao, and the only troops that can be mobilized are the troops of Yanjing City.

"If you really want to move the troops of Yanjing City, there are only 30,000 troops that can be deployed." Gu Xia has to take care of the security of Yanjing City, if there are too many transfers, it will inevitably cause disadvantages to Yanjing City.

The emperor's important ministers were all in this capital, and he could not take any chances.

He nodded slightly, and his frowning brows loosened slightly, "You go and call the imperial uncle to me." ”

Gu Xia was ordered and immediately retreated.

The dormitory where Yu Qiqi lives is called Fengluan Palace, which is where the Queen of Yanjing Gulai stays, and this dormitory has been uninhabited for many years. However, it looks gorgeous and airy, and the furnishings inside are also extremely luxurious.

Nangong Yan has ordered someone to clean this place several times, and it is very comfortable to live in.

After Chu Peiyu led her in, he bowed his head to her, "Crown Princess, all the emperors in Fengluan Palace have taken care of it, and they have also personally instructed the palace people who work in Fengluan Palace to retire first. ”

"Hmm."

Yu Qiqi responded.

Ah Jian looked at his departing figure, the corners of his mouth moved, for some reason, he always felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't know if it was because he was injured by mistake.

After a while, the ceremonial official came to Yu Qiqi's Fengluan Palace, and a palace maid trotted in to report, "Crown Princess Niangniang, the ceremonial official who taught the coronation ceremony is here." "The hall was wide, and the floor was covered with wooden panels, and in the July weather, the felt on the ground was put away, and when the palace maid ran in, there was a soft sound on the ground.

"Let him wait in the outer hall." She commanded casually.

"Yes."

The palace maid received the order and trotted out again.

I don't know if it's because of this light sound, Yu Qiqi felt a little dizzy in her head, and she held her forehead.

"The princess is not feeling well?"

Ah Jian withdrew his eyes, squatted down and asked her.

She shook her head, and stretched out her hand to her, "Help me out." ”

When the ceremonial officer saw her coming out of the inner hall, he hurriedly got up and saluted her, and her eyes were still a little dizzy, so he was excused.

A smile bloomed on the face of the ceremonial official, the princess's temperament finally improved, he picked up the book of rites, and told her about tomorrow's coronation ceremony one by one, and he didn't dare to miss any mistakes.

Yu Qiqi picked up and put down the tea cup in his hand, picked it up and put it down, and drank it back and forth several times, "How much more do you have to talk about?" Finally, she couldn't help but ask him.

"Well, there are more than twenty." The ceremonial officer was dumbfounded for a moment, and hurriedly looked back at her.

"Okay, you hurry up." Her eyelids were already fighting, and her heart was a little stuffy and uncomfortable.

"Yes."

The ceremonial officer breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurried to work again.

It took him three hours to finish the rules in the book.

"Alright, you can go down." Yu Qiqi didn't want to stay with him for another moment, so he waved him away.

The ceremonial officer was also relieved, and bowed respectfully to her before exiting the outer hall.

"Do you want to hire a doctor?" Seeing that her face was wrong, Ah Jian hurriedly asked.

"No need, I guess it's too tired." Yu Qiqi waved his hand, got up and walked to the inner hall, and Ah Jian hurriedly followed to help her.

Shen Feihong has not been idle in the past few days, Emperor Yan Jing had an accident and the new emperor ascended the throne, he had a lot of things to help Nangong Yan do, but he didn't know why he suddenly called himself into the palace in a hurry.

"Uncle Huang, there is a tricky matter for you to do right now." Before Shen Feihong could ask Nangong Yan, he had already spoken first.

In his deep eyes, a fierce color crossed him.
