Chapter Fifty-Five: Laying a Trap Xu Er Blossoms

Back to the Jinxuan Division, Li Chongrui had already gone to the cell to visit Chen Yueran, and I stood in the courtyard for a while with some emotion, why are there so many flies and dogs at this time, Si Yanque's ambition seems to be too great. It's just that he came to ask for a princess to marry, and he wants to stir up trouble in this Chang'an City. Everyone seems to be part of this great trap.

Li Chongrui stood behind her and patted her on the shoulder: "Why don't you feel interested?" ”

She sighed: "Sometimes, I don't know that in this Chang'an City, it should always be peaceful, but there are always people who come to play tricks, sometimes I think about it, but the opposites are different, and we are also cunning rabbits." Pol, she is a poor person after all, after this matter is over, let her stay in Chang'an, Chen Gongzi does not want her to return to the homeland full of sad memories. ”

Chongrui nodded: "We need to close the net as soon as possible." ”

She hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Si Yanque and the Third Highness and the Third Princess are inevitably too close, although all kinds of deeds do not show any connection, the duty of the Jinxuan Division is to deliver all the information found out to the empress." In the matter of King Alcohol before, His Royal Highness and you fought side by side, I just informed you, no matter what your opinion is, I still have to enter the palace Bingming. ”

Chong Rui sighed: "Chongyu and I are the same mother after all, he has no intention of seizing power, it is good to tell the mother emperor, lest the mother emperor know through some other channel, and even you will be suspicious." ”

She nodded.

The two of them rode down the street, passing by the market, bright red lanterns hung all over the street, people in the restaurant came in and out, no one cared about the lives of the people who listened to the moon building a few days ago, for things that were not about themselves, people always forgot fast enough.

Shangguan Wan stared at the hawkers on the street who were selling sugar gourds, Chongrui looked at her with a straight look in his eyes, so he smiled and got off the horse to buy a few strings of sugar gourds for her and handed them to her.

"Daughter's family, after all, I like sweets, do you like to eat sugar gourds?"

"No, I grew up in the court, and it is already a blessing to be able to fill my stomach, how can I have eaten these street foods, I just have never eaten them"

She said these words calmly, but Chong Rui's heart hurt, and he said gently: "What you want to eat in the future, you don't have to restrain yourself." I, Li Chongrui, will not let you live the past days again, I will protect your health and take you to see all the flowers of Chang'an. ”

She was stunned, and then smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Second Highness, but I made this promise today, what if I want to break this promise in the future?" ”

Chongrui rarely saw her childish side, scratched the tip of her nose, and looked down at her gently: "What do you say?" ”

"If the Second Highness violates this oath in the future, and wants to stay with other girls, and can't protect my health for the rest of my life, then I want the Second Highness to have no sweetness in the days after that, and I will eat sugar gourds every day, sweet to the bones. Never see you again. ”

He was stunned and rubbed his hand on her head: "Okay, I promise you." ”

She then took a bite of the sugar gourd, sweet and sour, happy like a child, but Chongrui looked at her dotingly beside her.

Under the light of this red lantern, his heart turned into a piece of water, and he will protect her from the slightest grievance in the future.

Back at the mansion, lying on the bed, Shangguan Wan remembered Li Chongrui's promise, and couldn't help but blush.

Early the next morning, she went to find Cheng Ruixiao and a few people.

"Senior brothers, it's time for you to visit Si Yanque, and I still remember what I said to you before and the arrangement, although Jin Xuan Si is not as decent as Kunlun Villa, but in the end, he is doing things for the royal family, doing things for Her Majesty the Empress, if you betray Jin Xuan Si, betray this secretary, and want to come to this huge country, you will never have peace."

Cheng Ruixiao and the others naturally knew that Shangguan's words were not alarmist, so they just knelt down and said: "Lord Siqing, rest assured, your subordinates will do their best to live up to their trust." ”

"At night, when no one is around, it is not suspicious to go quietly and visit during the day." After Shangguan Wan finished speaking, they replied obediently: "Yes, the subordinates obey the order." ”

In the evening, Shangguan Wan sent Sun Er to lead people to follow the other subordinates and watched them enter Si Yanque's residence.

He rode his horse to Chen's mansion again, Si Yanque has not contacted Mrs. Chen in the past few days, Mrs. Chen is also a little anxious, everyone in the mansion is in a hurry, but the old lady is quiet, seeing Shangguan Wan coming to the door, Mrs. Chen hurriedly invited her into the main house.

"Lord Chen, Mrs. Chen forgive me, and I forgive you for coming late at night."

Mrs. Chen held her hand, and tears suddenly welled up: "I don't know if my son is okay in Jinxuansi?" Now that Si Yanque has only contacted me once, I don't even know what to do, for fear that he will change his mind and will take my son's life. He is an upright person, and my mother is also sick now, and I don't even know what to do. ”

Shangguan Wanhui held Mrs. Chen's hand, helped her to sit down, and said warmly: "Your Majesty will not let the Chen family suffer losses, Yue Ran has been very good in Jinxuansi, but today in order to act in a scene, he has suffered some flesh and skin, everyone can rest assured." Listening to the dance of the Moon Tower, Ji Pol has also been won over by us. I've already sent someone to Simen to get my eyeliner done. You just have to wait patiently, and now at this critical moment, whoever can calm down will seize the initiative. ”

Lord Chen's brows were also tightly furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "That child is used to being doted on by my mother, and has been entrusted with important tasks by His Royal Highness and Lord Siqing, and as a father, I am also quite worried. Since Lord Si Qing said this, our family can rest assured. ”

Shangguan comforted: "Si Yan Que must be very curious about the relevant documents of the border guard, which is of great help to them, I have been in close contact with Kunlun Villa in several small countries nearby, and Jin Xuansi has also found out." I'm afraid that this is a long-planned conspiracy. If Lord Chen enters the palace tomorrow, it is better to discuss it with the empress, if Mrs. Chen wants to steal the documents, which ones can be stolen, the empress needs to give her permission. lest Si Yanque attack the east and west, but he will put our army again. ”

Master Chen stroked his beard: "What does it mean to strike at the west?" Isn't the purpose of Si Yanque to disrupt the imperial court? ”

Shangguan replied: "I'm afraid that I will use Mrs. Chen to steal the documents to him, and then go to the empress, the wicked will sue and attack the west, in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, how should Her Majesty the Empress choose, presumably Lord Chen knows in his heart, and we must be foolproof." ”

Lord Chen arched his hand and said, "It's still Lord Siqing, who is extremely smart. I'm like an ant on a hot pot, and I've lost my proportion. Fortunately, Lord Si Qing visited tonight, otherwise I am afraid we would have to take the initiative to contact Si Yanque. ”

Shangguan said before leaving: "You don't have to worry, Yue Ran he stayed with me very well, no one will hurt him, and when the matter is over in the future, you will know that Yue Ran is not a ridiculous child, but a dragon and phoenix among agile and intelligent people." It was late at night, so I took my leave. I hope that the old lady will be well, and Lord Chen and Mrs. Chen don't need to worry. ”
