Chapter 304: Saving Grace
"Third brother, yes, what the eldest brother said is right, you came back just in time, we can't live without you, there are too many small things for you to deal with." The second prince, Dugu Jiaming, has always looked at the prince's horse, and slipped his beard to pat the horse, so he naturally followed the prince's words.
"Father, since the son has returned safely as a hostage for his eldest brother, then...... Is it time to fulfill the promise of the father? Dugu Jialuo was not afraid of the eyes of others and asked categorically.
"Ah, by the way, if you don't say it, I have forgotten about it, as the saying goes, you have no jokes, I will canonize you as King Chen now, effective immediately." The old emperor kept his promise.
But Empress Jiang's face didn't seem to be very good, but since she was in the court, she couldn't let the emperor lose face if she thought about it, so she didn't force it.
In this way, Dugu Jialuo, who escaped death and returned to Liuyun Country, suddenly changed from an unknown third prince to His Royal Highness King Chen, and this matter spread among the people of Liuyun Country, and the people talked about it with relish.
Chen's Palace
"Master, it's great to come back safely this time, and it's time to go to the court, you didn't see that Queen Jiang's face turned green when she heard that the emperor had canonized you as King Chen." Derivative talk about today's events with relish.
But Dugu Jialuo didn't seem to be as happy as expected, and seemed to have something on his mind.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that something was wrong with his master, he asked.
"Derivation, you go and send someone to inquire, how is her situation after we left that day? Are people in Yangzhou now, or are they in the inn? It turned out that although he was very reluctant to leave on the surface, Dugu Jialuo was still relieved of Ye Anran's safety.
As soon as he heard that the master still cared about this woman, he immediately showed displeasure: "Master, didn't you say that you don't have anything to do with that woman?" After saying that since she has the plague, she will definitely not live long, and the most important thing for you now is to focus on state affairs, and you must prevent Empress Jiang from making the crown prince the new emperor. ”
"I know this in my heart." Dugu Jialuo was a little cold.
"Master, my subordinates don't understand, there are countless beauties in Liuyun Country, why do you have to think about that woman in your heart? Are you, master, also a person who values appearances? Just because of her alluring beauty? Derivation may be trying to persuade the master, so the tone is quite heavy.
After hearing this, Dugu Jialuo sighed and said, "Derivation, am I such a superficial person in your heart?" I like Ye Anran not because of her beauty, but because she has a kind heart, every time I am with her, I feel that my soul has been redeemed, you won't understand what a beautiful woman she is, if it wasn't for marrying Xigong Jue by mistake, I wouldn't let go anyway, when I was in Yangzhou, she saved me desperately, this kindness is incomparable to other women. ”
"Didn't the master return the life-saving grace? Didn't you give her all the purple soul jade? Speaking of this, he was angry, maybe he had always thought that the master was confused, so he gave Baoyu to that woman.
"But she gave it back to me." Dugu Jialuo took out the purple soul jade from his waist and showed it to the derivation.
"Huh? Did she give it back to you? Seeing this, he was a little surprised, in his heart, Ye Anran was a female liar who used her beauty to confuse her master, maybe she was a spy sent by the Tianmu Kingdom.
But when he saw that the purple soul jade was sent back by that woman, he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, she ...... What kind of woman is she?
"Master, when the subordinates feel delayed, they think of a way to deal with the prince, not the personal affairs of the children, and that Miss Ye may not live long, and maybe she is dead now, master, you don't want to be distracted, okay?" Although Derivation already had a new understanding of Ye Anran in his heart, he still persuaded Dugu Jialuo to put the country first.
Putting away the purple soul jade, Dugu Jialuo glanced coldly: "I have already arranged this matter, and now I am just waiting for him to jump into the circle." ”
"Huh? Master, have you already arranged everything? "Derivation didn't seem to expect that as soon as he returned to Liuyun Country, the master had already arranged everything.
"Don't worry, Dugu Jiazheng, that idiot will definitely be fooled." Dugu Jialuo said confidently.
Early the next morning
Prince Dugu Jia was going to the teahouse to drink tea as usual, but found a young and beautiful woman in red sitting opposite, looking very cute.
"Oh, it's right today, there will be good goods in the morning, go, call that chick over for Prince Ben to play." The crown prince Dugu Jia is a man who is obsessed with women, as long as the woman he fancies, whether he is married or not, he can't escape his clutches.
The woman sat there, as if waiting for someone, but her friend couldn't wait, so she got up to leave......
"Eh, wait a minute, girl." The entourage beside the prince blocked the path of the girl in red.
"Is there something wrong?" The woman in red asked, looking up.
"Our son-in-law invites you to come and sit down for a while." The attendant pointed to Dugu Jiazheng not far away and said.
The woman in red glanced at Dugu Jiazheng and said coldly, "I'm sorry, I don't know your son-in-law, please get out of the way." ”
"Eh, you chick really doesn't know how to lift, do you know who our son-in-law is?" The attendant was visibly impatient.
"It doesn't matter to me who he is." The woman in red didn't seem to be interested and was in a hurry to go out.
"Bold, he even ignored our son-in-law, and told you that our son-in-law is the current His Royal Highness the Prince." Seeing that the invitation was not successful, the entourage immediately moved out of the name of the prince.
In the past, this method was tried, after all, no matter which woman heard that it was the prince, she didn't dare to refuse, and she was even more eager to stammer.
But unexpectedly, the woman in red seemed to just frown, and then asked provocatively, "What if it's His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
"Oh, you bold woman, since you know that it is His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you go over to accompany His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and have a cup of tea." When the attendant saw the girl in red's insulting words, he immediately warned him.
"I didn't do anything wrong, so why apologize? Get out of the way, or ...... You're welcome. The girl in red frowned, and she began to show an impatient look.
Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a noble status, not necessarily all women revolve around, at least there are still such women who do not covet power and do not follow the crowd.
"What? You woman really don't know whether to live or die, come on, take it. "Usually the prince goes out for a walk, because Queen Jiang is worried that her son will be assassinated, so almost every time she brings a few Ouchi masters.
It's a pity that none of these Ouchi masters were used to deal with assassins, but they were all used to deal with these powerless women who were favored by His Royal Highness the Prince.
But maybe this time the woman is different......
The entourage gave an order, and the four Ouchi masters suddenly got up and surrounded the girl: "Girl, I advise you to obediently apologize to His Royal Highness the Prince, don't make yourself unhappy." ”
