Chapter 17: Identifying Identity

"I heard outside the palace that Prince Beiliang Yatu wanted to marry the niece of the palace, yes or no?"

As soon as she turned around, the purple-clothed woman spoke in a cold voice, but a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the middle-aged man in Beiliang.

Her and Chu Leyan's plan is for her to pretend to be the eldest princess, first, to refuse marriage in a grand manner, and second, to borrow her name to fight, maybe to lure me out. But the urgency of the delay at this moment is to delay time and wait for the seventh princess to find the bun for her!

"Exactly! The prince fell in love with the princess at first sight, and he was already in love with the princess when he saw the princess before. Looking at the princess's nine-section whip dance in one hand, she has the boldness of my Beiliang children, and I feel closer, and I think my father will be happy to have such a daughter-in-law with such a free and easy temperament. ”

Although Shangguan Yatu was very humble and sincere in her words, she could not hide the unruliness oozing from her bones, as if she was a gift to Nan Chu in her proposal to marry the Seventh Princess. And the result of a marriage seems inevitable.

Xia Qingyi was not in a hurry to combat his arrogance. Heaven wants it to perish, and it must first make it mad.

"Yan'er, what do you think of Prince Yatu? But the way you think of a colt. She asked Chu Leyan seemingly casually.

Not far away, there was a figure secretly clenching his fists, looking ready to attack.

Chu Leyan also felt the other party's anxiety, tacitly looked at the figure in the corner, and hurriedly lowered his head and said leisurely.

"Prince Yatu is handsome and chic, and he talks extraordinarily, he can be called the dragon and phoenix among people, and he is the best husband in a woman's heart."

Shangguan Yatude happily accepted Chu Leyan's approval, and before the smile on the corner of his mouth was fully opened, he heard the woman who was happy suddenly kneeling down and sobbing on the ground to Emperor Nanchu.

"However, father, the prince Jin Gui is like a dragon on the sea, but the daughter has lost her blessing, she is no longer innocent, and she can no longer match it, and she asks her father to surrender!"

Everyone gasped, and the Southern Chu Emperor jumped up directly from the dragon chair excitedly.

"Do you know what you're talking about? Rebel girl, you dare to do such a shameless thing, where is the face of the heavenly family? ”

Xia Qingyi was also almost fainting, her body shook, and she almost didn't stand still.

Give you a chance, you just make up a bells and whistles excuse to refuse, what are you blowing yourself up in the hall!! In this dynasty where a woman's name is more important than her life, there are people who cover up and dig their own graves, how do the princesses of this country grow their brains? ! It's really a pig teammate who can't take it!

Thinking so in his heart, he didn't dare to ignore this dead little girl, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Yan'er has always done things in a measured manner, and she will never easily do anything that insults the lintel of the heavenly family, there must be something unspeakable."

As he spoke, he turned around and helped Chu Leyan up.

"You explain the reason to your father, don't let the misunderstanding affect the relationship between father and daughter, do you hear?" The last four words, Xia Qingyi almost jumped out through gritted teeth.

"Father's 。。。。。。"

"The minister is guilty, it is the minister who defiled the princess's holy face, and failed to ask His Majesty for the guilt in time, and the minister deserves death!" Duan Yixuan suddenly rushed out of the corner and blocked in front of the princess.

This time, the originally tense atmosphere suddenly eased down, and everyone became a melon-eating mentality.

Only Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites saw that this matter was related to his son, and his legs were weak, although he didn't know what to do, he stepped forward and knelt down heavily.

"The minister is also guilty, the minister has no way to teach his son, please see that the old minister has worked hard for the country all his life, and there is only one son under his knees, and he will be lightly punished, and the old minister will bear all the blame."

Xia Qingyi was so anxious that her blood pressure rushed straight to her head, how could one or two of these ancient people know to ask for guilt, but they said, is it okay to talk about the storyline first!?

Emperor Nanchu was also angry and annoyed, he always knew that his daughter liked this Yixuan, it turned out that if there was no Bei Liang asking to marry, the Duan family was indeed a good choice, and among the young officials in the court today, he could be regarded as having both ability and political integrity, both civil and military.

It's just that the original simple marriage has now turned into a palace scandal, and it has also shown jokes to neighboring countries, and his old face is really beaten, and he can't help but roar again when he thinks of this.

"Still thinking about getting a light hair? If you dare to insult the princess, it is not too much for me to ask you to behead all over the house! ”

"Father can't be killed, can't be killed, it's Brother Duan who saved his daughter, if Brother Duan dies, his daughter won't live!" Chu Leyan heard that his father was really murderous, lest he be angry and deal with it directly without listening to the explanation. fell directly to the feet of his father, and dragged the front of the dragon robe to the front.

"It's my daughter, it's my daughter who soaked in the spring that day, she almost drowned, Brother Duan is in a hurry to save her daughter, and she is in a hurry.

It's really a person sitting in the seat, disaster falls from the sky, Xie Shouyi's right eyelid has been jumping since just now, he has a premonition that something is going to happen, and sure enough, this palace secret will always be exposed one day.

Xie Shouyi took a step forward and bowed heavily, "It is true, the princess fell into the water, it is the pulse of the old minister's diagnosis, the prescription for repelling cold and replenishing qi, and the hospital also has a detailed pulse record." ”

"Father, you see that Imperial Physician Xie also said that Brother Duan did not bully his daughter, he is his daughter's life-saving benefactor, you can't 。。。。。。"

"Shut up!" Emperor Nanchu's angry brain and muscles exploded.

"Tell me, what was Duan Shilang doing when you were diagnosing your pulse!?" Seeing that the emperor's eyes were staring at him like a torch, Xie Shouyi's head lowered even deeper, and he replied tremblingly.

"The minister didn't know, when the minister left, Duan Shilang was already in the house, neatly dressed, but soaked." That's all he can say, and he's afraid he's going to lose his head.

"What about the princess!?"

"The princess is unconscious on the bed." Xie Shouyi's head was already against the ground, and cold sweat slipped down his forehead like a string.

"Your Majesty, it was the concubine's negligence in discipline that led to such a royal scandal, and the concubine was willing to accept the crime." The concubine finally understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, it was just an oolong, if it was usually nothing, but today there were envoys from other countries present, it was really a bit humiliating to the royal face, so it was the best choice for her to take responsibility for this matter.

Emperor Nanchu looked coldly at the five people who were kneeling under the black pressure of His Highness, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while. I just wanted to open my mouth, but I heard the Beiliang envoy say with a smile.

"Since it's all an accident, the princess is not unvirgin, and Lord Duan is not evil, this matter is just a misunderstanding, my Beiliang boy never sticks to these subtleties, and the seventh princess just waits for me to welcome my Beiliang Shili red makeup. Prince Atul, what do you say? ”

Shangguan Yatu's face froze, but immediately returned to normal.

"It's okay, such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning, the princess is still the goddess in Yatu's heart!"

Beiliangyuan is a nomadic people of the grassland, good at riding and shooting, respecting the wolf clan, if the brother dies on the battlefield, there will often be a matter of marrying his sister-in-law or younger siblings, so in their opinion, Chu Leyan's such things are really nothing.

It's just that Yatu is not a fool, he has already seen through the affection between the two people in the palace in this back and forth conversation, and in his bones, his pride is that he is unwilling to marry a woman who does not have himself in his heart.

However, he could not disobey the decision of the national teacher. Although he didn't know why the national teacher was so insistent on the seventh princess in front of him, if he still wanted to compete for the throne of Beiliang, he had to rely on Shangguan Xuanmi, the national teacher!

Bei Liang was aggressive here, but Chu Leyan and Xia Qingyi were distressed, and the two looked at each other with a little despair.

It's all like this, and you still want to marry!?

"The minister has something to say, the princess fell into the water that day, although the minister accidentally humiliated the princess's name, but my Nanchu boy dares to do it, in this life, I Duan Yixuan has identified the seventh princess as one person, please ask the emperor to give marriage, and the minister will not disappoint the princess."

Emperor Nanchu's braincase swelled, seeing Bei Liang's sincerity, he just wanted to push the boat down the river and agree to the marriage, Duan Yixuan jumped out again to join in the fun. Duan Shangshu also pinched his own person violently, and quietly pulled his son's sleeve, this just felt that he had been closed from the ghost gate, why did he go back again!! Son, is his Duan family's century-old foundation going to be ruined here today?

"Meow!" A crisp cat meow broke the suffocating silence in the hall, and while everyone was still looking for a voice, a phantom figure shuttled through the crowd like lightning, jumped to Xia Qingyi's feet in three or two clicks, followed her dress, and skillfully climbed onto her shoulders.

"It's you!" Chu Zeyan recognized the bun, but his mother covered his mouth, and the rest of the words were all forced to swallow, and the concubine sternly warned her son not to do much with her eyes.

Although she doesn't know the identity of the woman in purple, she still can't see that this woman and her daughter are accomplices, so her mother is really in vain, not to mention that she has been in the deep palace for many years, there is no doubt that the woman in purple is here to help her daughter.

Emperor Nanchu and Shangguan Xuanmi were also in the same position. Legend has it that the Southern Chu spirit cat, this is! Others don't know, but how could the emperor not know that every successor in the secret room of the Taimiao can see the portrait of the Taizu of the Poison Gu Sect, this cat is the spiritual pet of the Taizu.

Shangguan Xuanmi's heart turned a thousand times, the spirit cat came out, then this woman must be the heir of the poisonous Gu, is it really the eldest princess who inherited the poisonous Gu spirit, but in this case, why shouldn't she fight in the last war, and why did she hide her whereabouts for so many years.

Baozi didn't know the turbulence caused by his appearance, it adjusted a comfortable posture, its butt was facing outward, and its face was against Xia Qingyi's neck socket, so hurriedly summoned itself and didn't know what her master was doing, and when it opened its round eyes and saw everyone on the table clearly, it was so frightened that it almost fell directly from its shoulder.

Good guys, there are three of the four Gu Spirit Descendants gathered here!? Gong Yaoyuan has long been used to it, and this thing hasn't seen any stumbling blocks on her master for so long, so she can ignore it for now! But Shangguan Xuanmi is different, this is the master's old enemy, fierce rival, natural enemy, it's a stupid and simple heroine, what should I do if I am really sold and can give money to the number of people!

The restless bun lowered his body, and made a sound of "cough, cough, cough, cough" attack and drive away in the direction where Shangguan Xuanmi was.

Sure enough, it recognized itself! Now Shangguan Xuanmi can determine the identity of the woman in purple. She is a descendant of the poisonous Gu, and she didn't run away!

"Eldest princess, what do you think, are you in favor of marrying my Beiliang, or are you bound by the narrow and sad male and female etiquette of your Nanchu to agree to this Lord Duan's proposal to marry!? I have already mentioned to His Majesty just now that Bei Liang is willing to offer the three cities of Udi to show his sincerity, and he also asks the eldest princess to decide! ”

Shangguan Xuanmi's words shifted the focus to Xia Qingyi. Obviously, everyone in the palace was waiting for the purple-clothed woman's answer. And Xia Qingyi swept everyone's eyes, and when she looked at Chu Leyan, she understood the determination in the other party's eyes. This girl would rather die than marry Beiliang.

Well, anyway, she is now the eldest princess, and she is also known as the heir of the poisonous Gu, no matter what earth-shattering decision she makes today, no one can embarrass her, with this confidence. She glanced at the two candidates for the pony in the hall, and then at the huge brown bear in the hall, and thought about it.

"I wonder what Prince Yatu's true love for my princess can do!?"
