Xia Qingyi never dreamed that she would receive such a grand return courtesy when she returned to the capital of Southern Chu.

Ten miles away from the city, the salute began to be repeated, and the emperor and queen of Southern Chu led a group of palace ministers to greet them, and the streets were surrounded by water.

"Little cutie, it looks like you won't be able to wander around as much as you want after today." Behind him, there was Gong Yaoyuan's playful ridicule.

"Shut up, can you hope I get better, you dog man!" Although his mouth was full of complaints, he also knew that the other party was telling the truth, and it was inevitable that there would be a burst of mourning in his heart.

At a distance of a few feet from the bright yellow sedan chair, Xia Qingyi tightened the reins of the carriage.

"Phew!"

Two inconspicuous carriages, one after the other, stopped in front of the official road into the city.

Xia Qingyi's head hurts, this battle is obviously coming at her, but what should she say when she meets?

Meet the emperor, the little girl is the humerus minister who pretended to be your royal sister at the princess's birthday banquet that day and matched your beloved daughter's marriage?

The "good deeds" she did were all big strokes to bully the monarch and lose her head!

Xia Qingyi couldn't do it, if she hadn't seen the familiar figure on the city wall in the distance, I'm afraid she would have turned the head of the car at this moment and fled in a panic.

The winter sun is not very warm, but there is a warm sense of tranquility on people, Emperor Nanchu originally did not want to follow the queen's wishes, make such a grand ceremony, achieve the queen's kindness and benevolence, and win over Xia Qingyi's mind.

Because even if he is the crown prince, in front of Emperor Nanchu when he is still in the prime of life, he has to plan the road to the throne, which is a big taboo.

But unfortunately, he himself wanted to see the dazzling faces of his juniors in the hall that day.

Thinking of this, looking at the stalled carriage, Emperor Nanchu took the initiative to beckon.

"The imperial sister is honest and does not deceive me, her niece is really beautiful, she has the posture of an immortal, she spreads my words, Xia Qingyi, the head of the new generation of the Poison Gu Sect, is my Nanchu Gu Spirit Holy Daughter, free from kneeling and worshipping, and the commander of the three armies!"

This is......? Xia Qingyi was stunned by this sudden gift and stayed in place.

The father-in-law on the side hurriedly reminded him softly: You still don't receive the order to thank you?

was immediately interrupted by the queen beside Emperor Nanchu.

"Qing'er is all from her own family, what do you say about being kind or unkind?"

"Yes, Sister Qing, I heard my aunt mention you earlier, but I haven't been able to find a chance to meet, but today I finally see the truth." An unfamiliar but excessively good male voice attracted Xia Qingyi's attention, and this raised her head。。。。。。

Chu Zexi!?

No, he's not, he doesn't have Chu Zexi's dimples, although his smile is so good-looking.

"Your Majesty, are you done?" Suddenly, a familiar voice without a trace of emotion interrupted Xia Qingyi's train of thought.

It was the eldest princess Chu Jiaren who had been standing on the city wall just now, she had been paying attention to the scene outside the city gate, if it wasn't for the emperor going out of the city to greet her in person today, she didn't want to save the emperor's face, Xia Qingyi would have taken her away.

She expressed it so clearly in the queen's palace that day, but the queen still didn't give up, and actually came up with the idea of inciting the emperor to engage in this bloody drama of large-scale family recognition and royal family reunion. Is the head of their Poison Gu Sect also a bargaining chip that she can think about as a resentful woman in the deep palace? What a dream!

"Imperial sister, I have just finished making a decree, why are you 。。。。。。?"

"Since the emperor has finished confessing, the people from my Gu Poison Sect will be taken away first." The eldest princess didn't give the emperor a chance to greet at all, and disappeared in front of everyone with a few ups and downs of Xia Qingyi.

left behind the queen and the prince with a blue face, as well as many people in Southern Chu who did not know what to do and had not seen Chu Qingyi's demeanor.

"Let's drive back to the palace!" The little eunuch said very interestingly.

"Queen Mother, didn't this eldest princess never participate in the battle for the throne? Why did Erchen feel like she was deliberately going against us every time? As soon as he returned to the palace, the prince was anxious to complain to his mother about what happened outside the city.

The queen snorted coldly.

"She's not fighting for us, it's just that she's not going to be on our side?"

"The queen mother said this, and the ministers didn't understand it." The crown prince is obviously not deeply involved in the world, and he knows very little about the court disputes, and he can't really see it.

"Your aunt is only loyal to one person, that is, her younger brother, you have the father, maybe there is one more person now." The queen said thoughtfully.

"So you quickly find an excuse and go back to the princess of the Western Xinjiang, looking at how much your father attaches importance to it, whoever marries Xia Qingyi will master the lifeblood of this Chu dynasty."

"The son of the minister will receive the order, and the son will think of the son to complete this matter in the near future, and the queen mother can rest assured." The crown prince has always obeyed the queen when it comes to the battle for the throne. It's just that the two didn't expect that this conversation would fall into the ears of Chu Leyao, the third princess who came to greet her early in the morning.

"Father-in-law Chu, this princess suddenly has some abdominal pain, and she won't go in to ask for peace if she is sick, so don't tell the queen, so as not to worry her." As he spoke, he gave the maid a color. The maid immediately took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and stuffed it into her father-in-law's hand.

"Father-in-law works hard, please accept this kindness."

The minions who have been walking in the palace for many years know how to please their masters, and they are proficient in seeking the greatest benefits for themselves without risking their own lives, so this will, Gonggong Chu tightened his cuffs, closed his eyes and said to himself.

"The morning light is very good today, but I don't know which master will be the first to come to greet the mother." After speaking, he stopped looking at the two of them, and walked straight in the direction of no one.

Besides, Chu Leyao suppressed the turbulent waves in her heart, and when she left the queen's bedroom, she went directly to the Chenju Palace of her mother's concubine Niangniang, and she couldn't bear it anymore as soon as she crossed the threshold.

"Mother, it's not good, something is wrong!"

Concubine Liang Niangniang wore a lotus-colored soft gauze Qingluo rose skirt today, wrapped in a white silver fox fur jacket, combed her hair with a smoke hibiscus bun, embellished with a few pearls of the East China Sea, and obliquely inserted a chic dazzling pattern inlaid white jade hairpin, sitting quietly in the hall, indescribably gentle and graceful.

"What's the matter, what's the big deal that deserves your such panic and loss of decency?" Frowning, Concubine Liang was obviously very dissatisfied with her daughter's dejected demeanor.

Only then did Chu Leyao notice that she was trotting all the way, her skirt was messy, and her forehead was fine, so she didn't have to think about it to know, but she was afraid that the makeup on her face had melted.

"It's the emperor who is too anxious and loses his sense of proportion, but his daughter 。。。。。。" He stopped talking and gave his mother a look to send people away, and then continued.

"The prince wants to break the marriage contract and doesn't want to marry my princess of Xijiang as the crown princess!?"

"What!?" Concubine Liang slapped the table, and the whole person stood up in excitement.

"Why is that? Where did you get the news? ”

"My daughter just wanted to go to the queen to say goodbye, and overheard her talking to the prince, and the prince's brother agreed."

"But who does the prince want to change to be the crown princess?" Concubine Liang was not calm, she thought that if the princess of Xijiang entered the East Palace, then even if she did not have a prince under her knees, after a hundred years of Emperor Nanchu, there would be a woman from the mother country as the new queen, then she and the third princess would not suffer, but now, the situation will change。。。。。。

"It should be the eldest princess's niece and nephew, and the apprentice of the ghost Gu of the Poison Gu Sect." Chu Leyao carefully recalled that today was connected to the last time she and Chu Leyan were forced to ask in the queen's palace, and it was not difficult to guess the queen's thoughts.

"Moreover, today it is said that the woman returned, and the emperor and queen, as well as hundreds of civil and military officials, all went out of the city to welcome her back to the court."

"Is that so?" Concubine Liang was shocked, isn't this person's identity 。。。。。。?

"Yao'er, have you seen this woman?"

"Well。。。。。。!" Chu Leyao tilted her head and thought for a long time: "It should be the girl who has been following Xiao Qi before, by the way, that woman looks a little like Sister Yingge." ”

Finish Yan Yingge!? This is strange, this little girl is the saint of Western Xinjiang, it is said to be a rare Gu magic material in the past hundred years, and she is deeply loved by the lord of Western Xinjiang, if it is not for the body of her daughter, I am afraid that this throne belongs to her.

Concubine Liang thought for a moment, and then she had a plan in her heart.

"Yao'er, you go get paper and ink, copy the woman's ease as completely as possible, and the mother concubine will repair another book, and tell your uncle what Nan Chu has to think about to see what he means."

"Okay." Chu Leyao's Danqing level is extremely high, and he really relied on his memory to draw Xia Qingyi with an eight-point look.

Xiao Nizi, who was kidnapped by the eldest princess, was in misery to accept the examination of the elders, and she stepped into the princess's palace with her front foot, and a gust of palm wind whistled.

"Auntie, hanging yourself still makes people take a breath, you don't even let me drink water and test my niece like this, this is too cruel?" Although he complained, he didn't dare to stop for a moment.

The eldest princess's killing moves were endless, and her appearance of not showing mercy to her subordinates at all made Xia Qingyi cry bitter again and again.

"Auntie, you niece has to be serious like this, how can you take the school exam like this! Oops, pain, pain! ”

Finally, he suffered retribution for his dual use, and was beaten by a change of trick that the eldest princess suddenly got up, and in an instant, he grinned in pain.

"Hehe, this palace sees that your spirit is very good, why do you need to rest?" The eldest princess said, her footsteps shook a few times, but she had already reached behind Xia Qingyi, and then she picked up the other party and threw it out.

"Hey, hey, I've murdered my niece, the eldest princess is inhumane, help!" She had to cry for help and couldn't get anything in return, while watching the play, Ouyang Qingying hugged the bun, and compared the moves of the two of them in her forehand, and she was so excited that she communicated with the bun.

"Baozi saw that aunt and grandmother's move was so amazing, one hit kill, such a sharp move, and grandpa had to avoid it in the air, and that slash, if you want to counter 。。。。。。?"

Oh my God, how many martial arts secrets has her brother read, why he can actually break down the moves, and think of ways to deal with and crack them, it's amazing!

The two of them simply sat on the ground and began to rest, but their eyes were all focused on the conversation between Ouyang Qingying and Baozi

Chu Jiaren also narrowed his eyes and began to re-examine this inconspicuous little radish head.

is so young, but this talent for martial arts should not be underestimated!

"What do you call you?"

When the boy heard this, he smiled sweetly.

"My name is Ouyang Qingying."

Ouyang 。。。。。。? Oh, my God!
