Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Battle for Supremacy, Blood-Stained Sleeves

Wen Tianyao's gentle face flashed a trace of fierceness, but he immediately hid behind a faint smile, and it seemed that he was still as gentle as ever: "The marriage of the third sister and the fourth sister is all decided by the father, I heard that Yan Shizi has not yet married, I don't know if it is interesting, ask to marry a noble girl and go back?" ”

"If there is a suitable noble girl, of course I don't mind marrying one to go back and spoil me, I just want to be the princess of Yandi, but it is not so easy to choose." Yan Huaijing's fingers fell on the ground of Yandi very skillfully, and tapped it gently, with a bit of leisurely and comfortable.

Not to mention that Yandi is the largest vassal state, as far as Yan Huaijing is concerned, his princess, of course, is not so easy to pick.

The crown prince Wen Tianyao seemed to be interested, his gaze swept across the map, and finally fell on Yan Huaijing's handsome and dustless face, "I don't know the woman the prince wants to marry, but what are the conditions?" There are many women in Beijing who are excellent in all aspects, and I don't know if they are qualified to be princesses? ”

"The woman who is praised even by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is of course the best, but I heard that the more noble the woman is, the more she marries, I don't know if what I heard in Yandi is correct?" The corners of Yan Huaijing's mouth raised, and he said slowly.

"There is indeed such a custom in Beijing, the more noble the woman marries, there are not only countless treasures in this dowry, but there can even be concubines with lower status, of course, these concubines, for other people, are still unspeakably expensive." Wen Tianyao replied, his fingers gently stroking the map of the capital.

This area is the center of the entire map, and from any point of view, it can be seen that the capital is the most magnificent and imposing place on this map, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"That's really an interesting marriage, and it's a good thing to get such a family affair." The corners of Yan Huaijing's lips hooked a smile that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, his voice was clear, like ice jade as a pearl, and with his lofty and gentle temperament, elegant and elegant.

The atmosphere in the tent was very quiet, whether it was the prince Wen Tianyao who was guarding the side, or the few people who came in with Yan Huaijing, they almost subconsciously held their breath, trying not to let their breathing interfere with them.

It's a silent battle for supremacy......

Inside the carriage, the third princess was also talking to Wei Yuewu.

The carriage of the third princess was very large, with a thick carpet and a stove, and as soon as she entered, it was as warm as spring.

The third princess sat on the innermost couch, and Wei Yuewu refused the invitation of the third princess, and sat on the side in a proper manner, with Jin Ling supporting her.

"Miss Wei Liu and Yan Shizi really only met on the way to Beijing?" The third princess asked softly, and specially pushed the fruit plate on the table to Wei Yuewu's side, with a little curiosity on her face.

In fact, there are not a few people who are curious about this Yandi prince, and it is normal for the third princess to ask so in private.

"At that time, I was robbed, and it was Yan Shizi who saved me." Wei Yuewu said vaguely, there are some things that can be blackmailed to Mo Huating, but they can't be regarded as facts and rumors, they must really come out, and they need evidence, not to mention that Mo Huating's Jingyuan Marquis has a stable foundation in the capital, and has always been very praised.

"Oh, so that's the case, seeing that the prince takes good care of Miss Wei Liu, I thought that Miss Wei Liu had known the prince of Yan Guo for a long time." The third princess said casually, her eyes flashed, and she asked, "Miss Wei Liu and Marquis Jing Yuan have a marriage contract, right?" I heard before that Marquis Jing Yuan is a person who is affectionate and righteous, and Miss Wei Liu is so blessed. ”

Wei Yuewu is very difficult to answer, the matter between her and Mo Huating is unclear, and she can't explain it clearly for a while, but there is one thing, Wei Yuewu is sure that she has to withdraw this marriage no matter what, but she hasn't withdrawn yet, that's the fact, so this time she admits it, she doesn't admit it, not to mention that the person in front of her is not an ordinary person, she is the third princess in the palace.

"I have been in the countryside for a long time, and I don't know the details, and I will talk about it after my father returns to Beijing." After thinking about it, Wei Yuewu smiled softly, and a trace of depth slipped between her eyes, this third princess looked really not simple, and in a few words, she brought herself to the dilemma.

The marriage between himself and Mo Huating, even though there were no rumors before, but since Wei Yan made mistakes repeatedly, there should be some news in the family circle, could it be that this third princess has really been in the deep palace for a long time and doesn't know the details at all, so she still told herself that Wei Huating is a good son-in-law?

Wei Yuewu will not forget that before, she was almost pushed into that trap because of playing the piano, and the third princess at that time also had a gentle face......

However, in the next part of the road, the third princess only asked about some ordinary things, and the two of them talked with each other, which can be regarded as a harmony between the guest and the host, of course, this is under the premise that everyone selectively forgot about the scene that happened in the tent before.

And the two of them, both of whom have good cultivation, obviously really forgot.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate, and the third prince mainly took Wei Yuewu to her palace to change clothes, and after Wei Yuewu politely refused, she went to this palace banquet, a resting place prepared for the young lady and the ladies.

Seeing Wei Yuewu's request, the third princess insisted again, called a palace maid on the side of the road, asked her to lead Wei Yuewu, and sent a palace maid beside her to help Wei Yuewu take the clothes placed in the carriage of Huayang Houfu, and she went back to her palace.

The place where the ladies rested, there was no one at this time, it was deserted, everyone knew that the ladies went outside the city to meet the prince of Yanguo who came to offer prisoners, and the ladies went to the queen's palace.

"This is a place to rest? Miss Wei Liu wants to take a break. The maid who led the way walked to the gate of the courtyard and said to the attendant guarding the door.

The doorkeeper was a middle-aged waiter, raised his eyes and looked at Wei Yuewu, his face showed a little surprise, and he hesitated a few times and said: "At this time, the banquet has not started yet, so it is not ready inside......

"Our young lady will take a rest inside, and the third princess will let us come." Jin Ling stepped forward and said unhappily to the waiter.

"Yes, the minion will find a room for Miss Wei Liu to rest." As soon as she heard that the third princess had an order, the chamberlain did not dare to slack off and hurriedly said.

Wei Yuewu was then welcomed into the room on the far left, the room was very clean, burning with sandalwood, and there was a faint soothing aroma in the light, which was very pleasant.

"Miss Wei Liu, there are some rooms that haven't been sorted out yet, so you can rest in the house first." The waiter stammered with a smile.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Wei Yuewu nodded, "If someone brings clothes over later, please ask your father-in-law to bring someone over." ”

"Yes, the slave understands, Miss Wei Liu, you rest first, and the slave won't disturb you." The waiter nodded again, and his attitude seemed very sincere, and after getting Wei Yuewu's approval, he retreated cautiously.

Retreating to the door, thinking about it, it seemed that there was something embarrassing, standing there, frowning, turning in circles, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, and hurried to the courtyard gate, but he didn't even guard the door.

"Miss, this waiter is tired." Jin Ling saw that the waiter had been entangled for a long time before leaving in a hurry, and said to Wei Yue, who was sitting at the table.

"Let's get out of here first." Wei Yuewu nodded, stood up, and said decisively.

"But, Miss, your clothes ......" Jin Ling looked at the blood-stained sleeves on Wei Yuewu's wrist, which was indeed invisible.

"It's okay, let's go in the direction of our own carriage, we should meet the palace maid who delivers the clothes, if there is no place, just change it in our own carriage." A trace of coldness flashed in Wei Yuewu's eyes, this palace, she is too unfamiliar, and she doesn't know too many things, so she should be more careful.

And this chamberlain made her even more uneasy.

When she heard that she was "Miss Wei Liu", she clearly saw a trace of shock flashing in the eyes of the waiter, she didn't think that she was a young lady who was not named and had just arrived in the capital, and she would let a waiter who had been in the deep palace for a long time also know.

And in the next few sentences, I didn't ask myself which house I was from, and I was even more embarrassed about myself.

No matter from which aspect, it shows that this is not simple, and now, he is resting inside, this doorkeeper is actually gone, if there is nothing in it, Wei Yuewu will never believe it.

Of course, there is also the smell of this soothing incense, if she is not mistaken, this soothing incense has another medicinal fragrance added to it, which is very light, but her grandmother has specially trained her, even if it is light, she can smell it at this time......

"Yes, miss." Jin Ling also knew that the situation was special, so he couldn't hesitate at this time, and nodded at the moment.

When she was about to walk out, Wei Yuewu suddenly stopped, walked to the table, took a pair of scissors from the needlework placed aside, cut it against her blood-stained cuffs, and a bloodstained sleeve fell down suddenly.

"Jin Ling, when you go out, press this sleeve at the door." Wei Yuewu handed the fallen sleeve to Jin Ling.

"Miss......" Jin Ling didn't understand what Wei Yuewu meant for a while, and asked in surprise.

"You just put it first, in fact, it's just a game of chess, see if anyone comes over and yourself." Wei Yuewu looked at the blood-stained sleeves, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her lips, with a bit of coldness, it seems that there are really many people in the palace today who calculate themselves.

Since I entered Beijing, it seems that I have entered a quagmire, and I am even more frightened step by step when I can't figure it out......

Jin Ling nodded, helped Wei Yuewu out of the door, and then carefully pressed the blood-stained sleeves against the door, it looked like he was careless, and pressed the sleeves, so there was a passage outside the door,

When she got out of the courtyard, Wei Yuewu didn't leave immediately, but took Jin Ling to a platform on the rockery on the left.
