Chapter 144: The Eldest Princess
Glancing at Leng Qingxiu, who spoke softly, Zhu Jiu nodded and replied, "Since the eldest princess summoned her, there is Miss Lao Leng."
She moved neatly, lifted the curtain, got into the carriage, and sat opposite Leng Qingxiu.
The carriage is not flashy, it is the specification that a concubine should have.
Leng Qingxiu as a princess of Heqin, but was sent to the battlefield by Xuanyuan's army as a prisoner and humiliated, this time she was rescued by Zhu Jiu back to Yan Kingdom, although the name of Princess Heqin is still on her, but the courtiers have a little more tolerance and pity for her, so they did not blame her.
It's just that in the future, no man will dare to go to the Leng family to marry this world's first beauty who was once famous in Yan Kingdom.
But Guan Leng Qingxiu's expression is calm now, and there is no self-pity in her eyes, obviously not worried about where to go in the future.
This calmness impressed Zhu Jiu.
Neither of them mentioned what happened in the Xuanyuan Palace, as if it had passed.
Shaoqing, East Palace.
The eldest princess lives in the main hall of the East Palace, and the side hall is the residence of His Royal Highness the Prince.
When the two entered the palace this time, Zhang Yuzhi instructed them: "I heard that when I was in Xuanyuan Kingdom, General Zhu also stayed in the Xuanyuan Palace in the name of Tuoba Ye?"
Looking at Zhu Jiu's different appearance, Zhang Yuzhi had some sighs in his eyes.
Her appearance is somewhat similar to that of Emperor Yan, but she is more calm than Emperor Yan, and her temperament also carries a sense of indifference to fame and fortune, which is very kind.
People are nearly middle-aged, and other women will work makeup and clothes, but the eldest princess is plain, there is no frown on her face, her black hair is very soft, and her smile is dignified and elegant.
Leng Qingxiu and Zhu Jiu saluted her together, but their identities were different, and the number of salutes they performed was different.
Seeing that the eldest princess asked about the two of them in the Xuanyuan Palace, Leng Qingxiu did not hide it, and told her everything in detail, and she did not reserve Zhu Jiuyu's help to her during the period, and told the truth.
After hearing this, the eldest princess sighed, helped Zhu Jiu up, and said, "It is not easy to help the building to fall and turn the tide without falling, but now the imperial brother is addicted to immortal arts...... I'm afraid that the only person the DPRK can rely on is General Zhu."
This is a very realistic statement, but it is too serious.
Leng Qingxiu couldn't help but secretly raise her eyes and glance at the eldest princess.
Now that Emperor Yan is not dead, the eldest princess said this to Zhu Jiu for the sake of Yan Guo, which shows that she wants to support her?
I'm afraid that it is unknown whether the crown prince will be able to ascend the throne at that time.
Her fingers clenched involuntarily, and she listened patiently, but she didn't interrupt the two.
Zhu Jiu saluted the trust of the eldest princess and said solemnly: "Her Royal Highness the princess is serious, when Your Majesty was young and famous, he also did a lot of things that were beneficial to the people of the world, without Emperor Yan, there would be no Yan Kingdom."
This heartfelt expression can simply express the sun and the moon.
The eldest princess nodded in satisfaction, but a touch of complexity and weakness flashed in her eyes.
Emperor Yan ascended the throne as a young man, and in the past, there were three auxiliary ministers, the imperial doctor, Su Xiang before the cold box, and the general of Zhenguo.
Except for supporting Yanhuang, after pacifying the four seas, he ended up with a full house raid.
But externally, Emperor Yan whitewashed these things as peaceful, no one knew how the three auxiliary ministers died tragically, only the eldest princess clearly saw that when Emperor Yan ordered the slaughter of the three auxiliary ministers and took back all the rights, there were three families in the imperial city were covered with corpses, and the blood of the dead spread directly from the palace gate to the street......
During that time, it was a good summer, but it was like a cold winter, and it was cold for ten days.
After that, Emperor Yan suddenly ordered to attack Xuanyuan, and destroyed the Xuanyuan royal family before and after.
What Yan Guo has suffered now is the retribution he committed at that time.
These things, the eldest princess only dared to keep it in her heart, she couldn't say it, once she said it, she was afraid that the hearts of the entire Yan Kingdom would collapse, and whether Zhu Jiu would save the Yan Kingdom at that time was two words.
Later, she said the purpose of inviting the two of them here.
It turned out that after Zhu Jiu ordered Xuanyuan Che to withdraw from the army, Emperor Yan was overjoyed and wanted to hold a celebration banquet for Zhu Jiu.
This is the feast of the wind
In addition to Zhu Jiu, the protagonist is Leng Qingxiu, and Emperor Yan also wants to use Leng Qingxiu to appease Prime Minister Leng Qingxiu.
I heard that Prime Minister Leng was very lazy about the affairs of the court in the court for the past two days, and Emperor Yan was busy for two days, so he couldn't stand it, and couldn't wait to throw these things to Prime Minister Leng Cheng, and then plunged into the Taixuan Temple, and he didn't come out all day.
I probably knew that the Yan Kingdom was going to die, and the Yan Emperor did not want to be the one who died in the country. Jun, so simply leave all the mundane things, and be happy to enter the Taixuan Temple to be an immortal cultivator.
After the eldest princess finished talking about business, she asked someone to bring makeup and brocade clothes, and gave Leng Qingxiu and Zhu Jiu a lot of rewards before sending them away.
However, Zhu Jiu stayed in the eldest princess's mansion by drinking tea for some reason, and Leng Qingxiu thanked her one step ahead of her and left.
After she left, Zhu Jiu put down the teacup and smiled to the eldest princess: "Her Royal Highness the princess only stopped talking to the ministers, but what do you want to say?"
Seeing that she took the initiative to speak, the eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief, "I know I can't hide it from you."
Then, she hesitated a little and said to Zhu Jiu: "That's the case, I invite you to come here today, in addition to informing you about the celebration banquet, there is one more thing, I want to ask you for help."
The eldest princess explained the situation, it turned out that Emperor Yan was becoming more and more ridiculous, and only Zhu Jiu's matter could attract his attention.
Therefore, the eldest princess hoped that Zhu Jiu would come forward and go to Taixuan Temple and ask Emperor Yan to return to the palace.
The celebration banquet three days later was clearly ordered by Emperor Yan, but now he is nested in the Taixuan Temple, and all the affairs in the palace are taken care of by the concubine, who is also the daughter of the side branch of the Leng family, and is in the same place as Leng Cheng.
No wonder when Fang Qingxiu was here, the eldest princess didn't say anything about it.
Zhu Jiu said: "Your Highness, rest assured, after the minister finishes the important matter at hand, he will go and ask His Majesty to return to the palace."
"That's good, there's General Laozhu."
The eldest princess finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked people to send Zhu Jiu out.
At this time, Leng Qingxiu had arrived at the Leng family.
As soon as I entered the door, I met the maid who came to ask, "Miss, master, please go to the study to talk."
It was no secret that the eldest princess had summoned her, and it was understandable that her father would know about it.
Leng Qingxiu nodded, "Got it, you can step down."
Then he went to the study and saluted Prime Minister Leng Cheng, who was reviewing the folds: "Father."
"The eldest princess is looking for you and Zhu Jiu, why is it?"
At the mention of Zhu Jiu's name, Prime Minister Leng raised his head, quite gritting his teeth.
After all, not long ago, in order to save Leng Qingxiu's life, he spent a lot of silver, and he also gave a lot of political power to the Zhu family.
Zhu Jiu is really greedy!
This account, Prime Minister Leng really can't swallow this breath if he doesn't count it back.
Hearing this, Leng Qingxiu recalled the scene just now, and sneered: "Emperor Yan is going to set up a celebration banquet in three days to celebrate Zhu Jiu's achievements, and it seems that Zhu Jiu will be reused by the imperial court again."
"But ......"
Speaking of this, her eyes flashed, and she looked at Prime Minister Leng Cheng: "Father, have you gone to investigate the news I sent you before?" As long as this matter is handled well, Zhu Jiu will definitely die!"
