Chapter 8: Princess Shuyi

In the afternoon, Chunguang and Xi.

The wheels drove through Chujing Street, and a soft hand gently lifted the curtain, and the back of the curtain shook gently, revealing a jade-like face.

The peony that followed outside the carriage immediately noticed it and hurriedly asked, "Niangniang, do you have any instructions?" ”

Xia Taozhi poked out half of her head and stared at her, remembering the joy on Peony's face this morning, knowing that she must have misunderstood something. But at the moment, I didn't have a chance to explain to her, so I had to say, "It's okay...... Is it almost there? ”

Peony winked at her and said, "Hui Niangniang, it's almost there." ”

She sighed, lowered the curtain, and sighed in her heart: My good peony...... You're really mistaken, not what you think......

She was very depressed in her heart, and glanced at Song Yuanxi, who was pretending to sleep in the carriage with her eyes closed, and scolded him from head to toe in her heart.

As if he had a sense, Song Yuanxi opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, and the corners of his lips were slightly curved: "Little Peach, why do you look at your husband so affectionately...... Didn't you see enough last night......"

The peony outside the car seemed to be unstable under her feet and tripped a little.

Xia Taozhi immediately pounced, covered his mouth, and said viciously in his ear: "If you are full of nonsense and ruin my reputation, let's stop the alliance we have promised!" ”

Song Yuanxi raised his eyebrows and was silent.

Last night, the two of them finally reached an agreement to temporarily form an alliance until they were recovered.

In the words of the tsundere prince, the Lingwang Mansion is now suffering from internal and external troubles, hidden crises, and the situation of the two of them is very dangerous. If they don't work together to deal with it, I'm afraid that before they can find their original bodies, they will inexplicably make a ghost for King Ling and his wife. Therefore, the first step for them to do is to gain a firm foothold in the chaotic situation of Eastern Chu. At that time, he can borrow the identity of King Ling to help her take revenge.

I have to say that this proposal of the tsundere prince made her very excited.

She went down the mountain for three years, hiding incognito and lurking in Gu Ziyi's house as a maidservant, in order to find out the murderer behind the slaughter of Yudong Village. Although the squire of the Criminal Department is a very important official position, Gu Ziyi has always been very cautious in handling things, and it is really difficult for her to shrink back as a little maid, so she has not found any useful clues in the past three years.

This may be an opportunity.

Thinking of this, she finally agreed to the alliance.

Although the temporary alliance is indeed a good choice for her at the moment, looking at the triumphant expression on the proud prince's face, she faintly regrets it, and always feels like she has been cheated by him somewhere.

Sure enough, she immediately regretted it the next day, and at this moment she really wanted to sew Song Yuanxi's mouth with a needle and thread, so that he could no longer spit frivolous words.

Unexpectedly, Song Yuanxi stretched out his tongue and gently licked her palm.

"You!" Xia Taozhi immediately retracted her hand as if she had been burned.

Song Yuanxi pretended to be mysterious and lowered her voice in her ear: "Now that the entire Chu Kyoto has regarded you and me as a model of loving husband and wife, if we don't play a role, I am afraid that others will be suspicious." ”

Xia Taozhi wiped her palms vigorously with a silk handkerchief, with a look of disgust: "It's just a matter of acting in front of people, there are only you and me now, who is acting for?" ”

Song Yuanxi was displeased and raised his eyebrows: "How do you know that the maidservants around you are not tired?" ”

Xia Taozhi didn't think about it, and replied: "Although I don't know Peony well, I believe that she is clean, and besides, your little life was saved by others, so you don't recognize people when you turn your face?" ”

Song Yuanxi looked at her with a smile: "Didn't my good princess save this king's life?" ”

Xia Taozhi sat far away and ignored him.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace. Xia Taozhi straightened her clothes, supported the step on her head, and tried her best to be dignified, but in exchange for Song Yuanxi's merciless ridicule.

Xia Taozhi ignored him, lifted the curtain directly, and helped Peony's men get out of the carriage.

Today she wore a lotus-colored long skirt, her long hair was pulled up, a golden hairpin was shaking, and the tassels were draped, elegant and luxurious. She had never worn a step shake, but she felt that her head was heavy and very cumbersome. But Peony insisted on dressing her up carefully, on the grounds that this was Princess Ling's first public appearance, and she must make a jackpot.

She couldn't cry or laugh, and silently felt in her heart that Peony and Senior Brother must have a lot of common language.

There was already a little chamberlain standing at the gate of the palace to greet them, the little chamberlain was not very old, he was born with clear eyebrows and a kind smile. Seeing Xia Taozhi get out of the carriage, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Slave Li Huai, I have seen Princess Ling's mother." ”

Xia Taozhi bowed his head and said, "No courtesy."

Everyone waited for a while, but they didn't see Song Yuanxi get off the carriage. The little chamberlain was puzzled, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only bend down and wait.

Xia Taozhi said in her heart, what kind of demon are you doing? I was about to lift the curtain to see what was going on.

Suddenly, as soon as the curtain of the carriage was lifted, a large slender white hand stretched out and held it in the air, and the person in the carriage coughed lightly.

Everyone was stunned, and then they understood, the feeling was that no one was waiting for this master to get out of the car, and he still refused to come down.

It is strange to say that His Royal Highness the King of the Mausoleum does not even have an attendant by his side, and it seems that he has always been a loner. This is a bitter tsundere prince, in the past, he was the prince of a country, calling for wind and rain, and Ling Yao was with him wherever he went, but now he has become a down-and-out prince, his father doesn't love his daughter-in-law, and no one even helps him in the next carriage.

The little chamberlain named Li Huai reacted very sensitively, and immediately took two steps forward, and respectfully stretched out his hand to help His Royal Highness the King of Tombs.

Song Yuanxi got out of the carriage, glanced at Xia Taozhi with resentment, turned his head and asked the little chamberlain: "Your name is Li ......?" ”

Xiao Nei hurriedly said: "Slave Li Huai, please say hello to His Royal Highness King Ling." ”

Song Yuanxi nodded and said, "Where is Gonggong Li on an errand?" ”

Li Huaidao: "Back to His Royal Highness, the slave is the servant in the imperial study, and he is on an errand under the head of Wei Da. ”

Song Yuanxi said: "Okay, I'm tired of Gonggong Li leading the way." ”

The little chamberlain didn't want His Royal Highness King Ling to be treated so politely, so he was immediately flattered and respectfully brought the two into the palace gate.

The Chu Palace is majestic and magnificent.

The Chu people are known for their elegance, so the entire Chu Palace, carved beams and paintings, is splendid, and extraordinarily beautiful.

Along the way, Song Yuanxi seemed to favor this little chamberlain, and kept talking to him, leaving Xia Taozhi behind.

Peony asked in a worried whisper, "Niangniang...... Your Highness, is this angry with your mother? ”

Xia Taozhi was confused, and couldn't understand what the tsundere prince was angry with inexplicably, so she rolled her eyes and said, "Don't worry about him." ”。

Everyone walked to the imperial garden, and suddenly heard a delicate female voice coming from afar, accompanied by a crimson figure from far and near: "Brother Xi...... Brother Hee......"

The girl in the crimson palace dress came from a distance, and the red hairpin on her head was tinkling, shaking everyone's eyes. Leaning less, the girl ran to her, pushed Xia Taozhi away, and then threw herself straight into Song Yuanxi's arms.

Xia Taozhi was pushed back by her two steps, and Peony hurriedly stepped forward to support her, frowning, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. Xia Taozhi was inexplicable, where did she come from, a barbaric girl.

The girl didn't look at her, her bright face was crooked, her lips were lightly opened, and she actually hugged Song Yuanxi in public: "Brother Xi, I can be regarded as seeing you, Mei'er misses you so much......"

Song Yuanxi looked confused.

Li Huai hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The slave has seen Princess Shuyi. ”

Princess Shuyi?

Isn't it the pearl of today's saint, Princess Song Yumei, the daughter of the Empress Xue family?

If you want to talk about this Shuyi princess, it is the golden branches and jade leaves of Da Chu's incomparably noble. Emperor Chu gave her the title of "Shuyi" and loved her. But she didn't have Shuyi at all, and she didn't look quiet and graceful. On the contrary, he is known for being rude and willful, and he is arrogant, which is really a waste of the word "Shuyi".

Everyone in the Chu Palace avoided giving up three points to this Princess Shuyi, and it was no wonder that Peony dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

Song Yumei ignored Li Huai, and only said to Song Yuanxi: "Brother Xi, Mei'er wanted to look for you on the day of your wedding, but the queen mother didn't let me go, and she grounded me in the palace. Later, I heard that you were poisoned, and Mei'er was so worried about you......"

Everyone was embarrassed.

It stands to reason that this Princess Shuyi should be the half-sister of His Royal Highness King Ling, and this sister is coquettish with her brother, and it was nothing originally. But now the king of Ling is married...... How much to avoid suspicion. Besides, Princess Ling is still standing on the side.

At this time, another group of people came running from afar, and the one running in front was an older grandmother, who came panting, and hurriedly went to pull Princess Shuyi, and said in a loud voice: "Your Royal Highness, Princess...... Her Royal Highness the Princess...... You can't do that......"

Song Yumei let go of Song Yuanxi, took two steps back, and looked at everyone indifferently, looking arrogant.

The grandmother breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "The slave maid has seen His Royal Highness the King of Ling, and the princess of the Ling." ”

Hearing this, Song Yumei turned her head to look at Xia Taozhi, her face suddenly showed disgust, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said disdainfully: "You are Brother Xi's new princess?" ”

Xia Taozhi was not used to the meaty title of "Brother Xi" for a while, and was stunned for a while before she reacted and said that it was Song Yuanxi, so she replied: "Yes." ”

Princess Shuyi was obviously very dissatisfied with her answer, looked Xia Taozhi up and down, and snorted coldly: "How can you be worthy of my brother Xi?" And as soon as you passed through the door, my brother Xi was poisoned and assassinated, aren't you a mourning star? ”

This is said to be very vicious.

Xia Taozhi felt that she was simply unreasonable, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet! So he smiled at Song Yumei, ignored the peony that quietly pulled her sleeve behind her and handed her the look of the peony, and said coldly: "Yes or not is the matter of my Lingwang Mansion, don't bother Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Song Yumei was annoyed when she heard this, and said angrily: "A concubine of the prime minister's family dares to talk to this princess like this!" Do you think that your sister has become the crown princess of Situ, so you can stop taking this princess in your eyes? Today, let you know how powerful this princess is! ”

After that, he raised his hand and was about to fight.

Xia Taozhi sneered, grabbed her hand, twisted her backhand, and shouted: "The princess has such a big temper, you still want to call me a sister-in-law in terms of seniority, and you dare to commit murder in public!" You are still called "Shuyi", but you don't know what the word "Shuyi" is! Let my sister-in-law teach you well today! ”

Song Yuanxi held his hands and watched the show on the side.

Little Peach vs. Savage Princess, wonderful, really exciting. For some reason, Xia Taozhi's pungent appearance, the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became.

When did Song Yumei suffer this kind of loss, she was so anxious and angry, but her hand was twisted and she couldn't exert her strength, and she screamed in pain.

The grandmother didn't want Princess Ling to be so difficult to mess with, seeing that Princess Shuyi had suffered a loss, she hurriedly pounced on the two of them, but secretly stretched out her black hand and pinched Xia Taozhi's waist. Peony was about to step forward in a hurry, but Xia Taozhi let go of Song Yumei, flashed sideways, and kicked neatly on the grandmother's knee, kicking her on her back, and lying on the ground with "ouch, ouch!

The entire Imperial Garden was suddenly filled with the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling!

Song Yuanxi saw that it was almost over, and was just about to pretend to go up to stop him, when he heard an angry rebuke behind him: "Presumptuous!" How dare you mess around in the Imperial Garden, what a boldness! ”

As soon as the words fell, a group of people walked out from behind the rockery in the Royal Garden. The man at the head was dressed in gorgeous clothes, wearing a jade crown, handsome and plump, with a graceful bearing, and his expression was not angry and arrogant.

He walked slowly to him, swept around lightly, looked at Song Yuanxi, and said coldly: "Third Emperor Brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have become more and more bold, and you dare to connive at your princess to bully Princess Shuyi, do you still have your father and queen mother in your eyes, but there is also this palace?" ”

Everyone was so frightened that the three souls disappeared and the seven spirits disappeared, and they all knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice: "See His Royal Highness the Prince......"
