Chapter 63: The Queen's Thoughts
Three days later, Gicheng...
As soon as he returned to the prince's mansion, the dusty Yin Linxi didn't even have time to rest for a while, and a palace man from the palace intercepted him at the gate of the prince's mansion.
It seemed that Yin Linxi's father had something important to discuss with him, and the two first said something to each other, and then saw Yin Linxi's face suddenly become heavy.
After glancing back at me, he hurriedly followed the palace people into the carriage into the palace.
And although I don't know what happened, judging from his complicated expression before leaving, I guess something big happened again.
"Hey...", it's really a wave of unsettled waves!
I sighed softly.
Puzzled, who had just walked into my bedroom with the incense burner, she put down the incense burner in her hand and asked me, "Princess, what's wrong with you?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”
I shook my head, and instead of expressing my sorrow, my eyes fell on the smoke-smoking incense burner.
"What kind of incense is this?" I raised my hand to puff the green smoke, and I thought it was very refreshing.
Peach Heart blinked mysteriously, and as if by magic, she took out a light pink sachet from behind her and handed it to me.
"This is Yuelin incense, which was rewarded by the emperor before coming to Xianyu."
"Father?"
Momokin nodded.
I lowered my eyes and gently stroked a few lotus flowers embroidered on the light pink sachet, and couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, "Think about it, I've been here in Xianyu for more than a few months, and I don't know if my father is doing well?" Has Zhongli's crisis been resolved? ”
Momokin patted me on the shoulder comfortingly, "Princess, don't worry!" General Qian Xu is a brave general of Xianyu, and he will definitely be able to help Zhongli get through the difficulties! ”
"I hope so!" I looked out the window at the budding branches, and I felt an indescribable sorrow in my heart.
Seeing this, Momoshin smiled deliberately, took the sachet from my hand, and leaned over to carefully pin the sachet to my waist.
"This time, princess, you must remember that you can't give sachets to others casually!"
Looking at Taoxin's serious appearance, I couldn't help but be a little stunned, and after a while, I suddenly remembered that she was talking about the fairy family called Gongsun Zidu.
"But why? It's just a sachet. ”
"Princess!" Taoxin looked at me with hatred and hatred, and continued, "There was a saying a long time ago that the sachet is a token of love between men and women, and the woman gives the man the sachet is generally to express her affection, if the man accepts it, it means that these two people..."
Speaking of this, my heart paused, and I took her words, "How are these two people?" Married to a couple? ”
Momo's cheeks turned red inexplicably, and she looked at me wryly, nodding.
It made me laugh out loud, and now I think of the appearance of the girl in the post house behind me that day, and her eyes are about to fall off, so I was worried about this, it's really embarrassing for her.
But this is a completely unnecessary worry, although the fairy family did accept my sachet, but if he knew that I was a woman who had already married a woman, I am afraid that it would be too late to hide from me, how could I end up in love.
Seeing the joy of my laughter, Taoxin suddenly knelt down at my feet with a look of urgency and said, "Please forgive the slave for daring to say too much, now you are married to His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats you very well, Princess, you really shouldn't think about it!" ”
Ha?
My eyebrows jumped twice, what do you mean by not thinking too much? Did I think about it too much? When did I overthink it?
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the door, and it was late to come in.
"Crown Princess," Wan'er gasped and said to me, "the queen has sent someone to pick you up, saying that she is inviting you to visit the garden together!" ”
"The Queen?" I was slightly surprised, Yin Linxi's front foot had just left, and she sent someone on the back foot?
That woman was really well-informed.
But... Garden? I gazed and paced to the door, looking out at the cold courtyard...
This fashionable and cold has not disappeared, full of depression, which door garden is this a visit?
Li Shi sent someone at the right time, saying that it was a good thing to please, but to say that it was unpleasant to say that I expected me to reject her the first time, and I didn't have the courage to refuse her a second time.
And the purpose of her doing this is probably not the drunkard's intention to drink, but what does the Li family want to do?
Obviously, I had already returned one of the things she gave me last time, and although I didn't refuse directly, everyone with a discerning eye should know that I was already prevaricating.
Could it be that the Li family can't hold back what other plans they have?
With this suspicion, I entered the palace with the carriage she had sent.
Under the guidance of the palace people, he shuttled through several buildings, and finally came to the garden where the Li family was.
"Su Xue see the queen mother!" I saluted her respectfully.
Sitting in the garden pavilion, Li was holding a delicate tea cup to his mouth, and hurriedly put it down when he saw me coming.
Covering his lips and smiling, he beckoned to me, "Crown Princess, don't be polite, come... Sit down! ”
"Yes!" I got up, and under the service of the palace people next to me, I walked to the pavilion and took a seat.
"I heard that the crown princess went to the Jiangbei disaster area a few days ago?" Li didn't have the slightest greeting and went straight to the point.
At this time, the palace people were pouring tea into the teacup in front of me, and the white hot smoke rising quickly drifted into the rather cool air.
I raised my hand and raised the teacup, looked at the Li family who seemed to be smiling, and pretended to be guilty and uneasy, "This matter is Su Xue's consideration, please forgive the queen!" ”
"Look at what you said," Li smiled, turned around a little and turned a beautiful gold ring on his right index finger, and raised his eyes to look at me again, "The princess's words have confused the palace, you go to visit your husband in Jiangbei, how can you forgive your sins?" ”
I lowered my body slightly, "I am ashamed", "According to the rules, Su Xue, as a daughter-in-law, should have reported to the Sixth Palace as a daughter-in-law, and she could only leave after the approval of the queen, but Su Xue acted without permission because she was worried about the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince, and she was too willful and reckless, so please ask the queen to condemn herself!" ”
I'm going to get up and kneel for her.
"Eh," Li hurriedly waved his hand, "The crown princess is serious, this palace is just envious of your deep relationship with the crown princess, so I mentioned it, the princess is afraid that she has misunderstood." ”
Misunderstand? I glanced at the villain-looking Li and sneered secretly.
She deliberately brought up this stubble, probably to warn me not to challenge her authority, and secondly, to be a favor to be a bargaining chip for what she was going to say to me next.
After being silent for a while, she really sighed, "I remember that you were your age when the palace first entered the palace!" But more than ten years have passed, and I'm no longer young, hey... It's really a flower without a hundred days, and no one is a teenager. ”
After Li finished speaking, she made an infinitely embarrassed look, which looked extremely incommensurate with her still white and soft cheeks.
I smiled, and immediately patted her ass and said, "The queen is really modest, don't say that you are a good age now in your prime, just with your moth eyebrows, it looks like you are just the age of being a sister to Su Xue." ”
After listening to this song's words, Li laughed comfortably.
I took the opportunity to add, "Please forgive the queen mother, Su Xue boldly wants to call you sister!" ”
Li Shizheng's heart was full of joy, and then he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you and I are a family, so there is no need to follow the rules so much." ”
"Yes!" I nodded "obediently".
Li Shi said, "The palace invited the crown princess to come today, just to talk to you about family life and narrow the distance between us." ”
"Thanks to the Queen's love." I waved my hand at Li with "low eyebrows and pleasing eyes".
Li Shi nodded with great satisfaction, and then his expression suddenly became sad, and he sighed, "Hey, time flies so fast, it's been eleven years in the blink of an eye... The crown prince's biological mother has been the queen for almost eleven years. ”
"Queen Lian?" Yin Linxi's biological mother?
Seeing that I was puzzled, Li smiled and continued, "The poor prince was less than ten years old at that time, and the emperor was busy with political affairs all day long, so he entrusted him to me, but I was just an ignorant girl at the time, and I was already too busy to take care of myself every day just in the deep palace, so I more or less snubbed the prince, causing him to hate me for not taking good care of me, and until now I am still not close to me at all, I really regret it!" ”
Li was extremely embarrassed.
I sneered secretly, of course she would regret it, if she knew that she would have nothing to do, I am afraid that she would play the role of a good mother in front of Yin Linxi even if she tried her best! It's just a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world!
"That's right," Li Shi made a flash of inspiration and looked at me expectantly, "Crown Princess, you and the crown prince have the best relationship now, why don't you help me?" ”
"Help?"
"Yes," Li smiled flatteringly, and took the opportunity to come over and take my hand, "I want to regain the mother-son relationship with the crown prince, the crown princess, you will help me, right?" ”
"Uh... Hehe..."I laughed dryly, and took advantage of her unpreparedness to withdraw my hand from her hand, "Queen Mother, I think you may overestimate me a little, in fact, don't look at the prince like that, he really doesn't take me in his eyes at all, and even going to Jiangbei is just my own wishful thinking." ”
As I said this, Li's expression darkened.
But in order to keep her from taking the opportunity to take revenge, I couldn't refuse too thoroughly, so the conversation shifted, "But Queen Mother, I can give it a try, but Su Xue, who is unsuccessful, will not dare to promise you." ”
For a moment, a few gleams of light overflowed in Li's dim eyes.
Probably sensing that his thoughts were about to be wasted, he did not respond to my words, but suddenly talked about the affairs of the court.
"By the way, Crown Princess, you don't know yet, do you? General Qian Xu is back. ”
"What?" My heart skipped a few beats, and my back froze.
I looked at Li nervously and asked, "General Qian is back?" ”
Why didn't anyone tell me?
Seeing that I was anxious, Li Shi hooked the corners of his lips, and his eyes were cold, "Yes, Qian Xu is back... was also seriously injured, and the 100,000 elite soldiers allocated by the emperor were wiped out! The crown prince, as the initiator of advocating the borrowing of soldiers, is probably still on trial in the court at this time. ”
Her cold words exploded in my mind word by word, causing me to stumble back a few steps as my heel became unstable.
Qian Xu was seriously injured, and all 100,000 elite soldiers were wiped out? What is this concept? What about Zhongli? What about Zhongli? Can they only be reduced to cattle and sheep to be slaughtered under the sword of Wu State?
Could it be that no one can clean up the country of Wu anymore?
