Chapter 13: The Game of Chess (1)
In the Fengkun Palace, it is rare for the queen to worship the Buddha.
Seeing that it was almost noon, he returned to the palace.
Yu'er stood aside and said distressedly: "Since Her Royal Highness and the eldest lady left the palace, Niangniang has been eating fasting and reciting Buddha, if you go on like this, where can your body eat?" ”
Reading and listening is now quietly arranging vegetables for the queen, the queen sighed softly, looked at reading and listening hesitantly, and still did not speak after all.
Yu'er looked at the queen's expression and instantly understood. Is it because of the death of the regent and the princess regent? The queen once lost Princess Changle, was disappointed in her beloved, and then lost her best friend, and Miss Liu was never heard from again. Now that Nanyun Eucalyptus and Ling Tianhuan are naturally unable to lose anymore, they can't afford to lose more.
In the past month and a half, the progress on both sides of the border city has not been small.
Nanyun Eucalyptus was in the study, and in order to investigate to no avail, he was angry with the magistrate, picked up a tea cup and fell to the ground angrily.
"A bunch of rubbish!" Nanyun Yu pointed at the breach and scolded, "Check! Check it again! If you don't believe it, it's really a disaster from heaven! ”
Ximen Jiao stood beside him, pretending to be cautious and frightened, and stepped forward to comfort: "Your Highness, don't be angry anymore, your Highness will always be uncomfortable if you are angry." ”
Nanyun Eucalyptus listened to Ximen Jiao's soft voice, and smiled with relief: "Just look at Jiaojiao's face, the palace doesn't know the county, but if there is no progress in the past few days, the county will wait to take off his hat." ”
This frightened Zhixian, he sneered in his heart, and quickly kowtowed: "Yes!" Xia Guan understands! The lower officials must do their best to investigate. ”
It happened that Ling Tianhuan came to see the scene in the house, and caught a glimpse of Ximen Jiao's satisfied smile, she knew that the plan had been completed.
She pretended to be dissatisfied and glanced at Ximen Jiao, and stepped forward to salute: "The courtiers ask for peace to the Second Highness." ”
Nanyun Huan has been pretending to dislike Ling Tianhuan for the past few days, and has become extremely indifferent to Ling Tianhuan at this moment.
"Get up."
The corners of Ling Tianhuan's mouth hooked up with a smile, and he thanked him respectfully: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”
and pretended to look at Ximen Jiao unintentionally: "Miss Xijiao is also here." ”
Benefiting from the new served Nanyun a cup of tea, and he took it and tasted it.
Before Ximen Jiao could speak, she heard Nanyun Eucalyptus put the teacup on the bookcase with a slight collision sound.
Obviously, it was Nagumo who was angry.
Simon obediently stepped aside, wanting to sit back and enjoy the results. In the past few days, Nanyun Yu has been quite dissatisfied with Ling Tianhuan, and she can see it. Nan Yao Rui Ke said in the letter that Nanyun Eucalyptus is an infatuated species. He lived for eighteen years and liked Ling Tanhuan for ten years. If he can like Ximen Jiao, then Nanyun must be like the emperor no matter what, and he must be his wife. Even if he knew her identity, Nanyun Eucalyptus would ignore the previous suspicions.
As long as Nanyun Eucalyptus marries Ximen Jiao, then Nanyun Eucalyptus will lose the opportunity to win the heir. After all, the royal family of the southern country clearly stipulates that a daughter from a foreign country cannot be a queen, and a son of a daughter from a foreign country cannot be a prince.
If it is only this condition that makes the Western Xia royal family tempted, then it is different for Ximen Jiaoke.
Ximen Jiao was not born well, and she was the daughter of the queen's palace maid who climbed the bed. Her mother's life was not good, so she gave birth to her and went away. Everyone in the Western Xia royal family passed on Ximen Jiaokemu. has been humble since childhood, and her food and clothing are comparable to those of abandoned concubines in the cold palace.
But Ximen Jiao is a competitive one. The queen of Western Xia had no children and could not give birth, so she fell in love with the queen. Under the guidance of the queen and his own efforts, he has achieved today's status.
Empress Xixia originally asked her to seize the throne, after all, Empress Xixia was not willing to live with others on the throne of the queen mother, and the most noble woman in the world must be her. But the emperor and Ximen Jiao, as well as the crown prince, understood what Nan Yaorui meant, so the emperor personally came forward to persuade the Empress of Western Xia to agree to let Ximen Jiao marry Nanyun Eucalyptus. The Empress of Western Xia pretended to be unwilling to let her daughter marry far away, but the Emperor of Western Xia used greater benefits, and Empress Xixia was deeply tempted and had to agree.
Later, he persuaded Ximen Jiao. In fact, Queen Xixia didn't persuade her, but she Ximen Jiao was also willing.
Nan Yaorui also wrote in the letter that Nanyun Eucalyptus yearns for his uncle's love and wants a life and a couple. Simon's delicate point is that you can get both power and love. If such a man really appeared in her world, then she thought, she couldn't resist it.
Nanyun Eucalyptus and Ling Tianhuan didn't talk as much as Ximen Jiao did when they first came, and Nanyun Eucalyptus also took advantage of his own upset to send Ximen Jiao back to the wing.
Ximen Jiao closed the door tightly and entered the door to share her joy with Liu Zixian.
Liu Zixian didn't waste the ceremony, and looked at Ximen Jiao's jubilant appearance and pretended not to understand: "I've seen the master." Why is the master so happy? ”
Ximen Jiao also regarded Liu Zixian as her own sister at this moment, put down her pride and stepped forward to help Liu Zixian in person: "Qing'er doesn't have to be polite, come and talk to the palace." I was so happy that I didn't know who I was sharing it with. ”
Liu Zixian followed Ximen Jiao to sit on the chair and listen to where Ximen Jiao was speaking.
"Qing'er. I told you yesterday that I think Nanyun Eucalyptus and Ling Tinghuan are separated, and I took a side interview this morning, plus Nan Yunhuan's attitude towards Ling Tinghuan has been determined, Nanyun Eucalyptus just doesn't like Ling Tinghuan. ”
Liu Zixian sneered in her heart. In her previous life, Nan Yunhuan was unwilling to give up on Ling Tinghuan in the sword mountain and under the sea of fire, abandoning her self-esteem and kneeling down to Nan Yaorui many times, just to ask Nan Yaorui to give Ling Tanhuan happiness, and she Liu Zixian was not unaware.
Recalling his previous life, the prince of Western Xia recognized his identity two months before Nan Yao Rui ascended the throne. He let himself be tempted by this prince, and used himself to uproot a tumor that Nanyun Eucalyptus had planted in Western Xia when the emperor was alive. The little general and his troops were buried in the hands of Ximen Fu.
Although she hasn't heard about the little general named Tan Jingxi yet, she is roughly sure that Nanyun Eucalyptus is also a reborn person.
In his previous life, Minami Haruka Rui killed the three major families of Kyoto City. Cheng Engong, Yi Guohou, Changping Bo, overnight, the whole door was destroyed. Nagumo must have known. But according to her understanding of Nanyun Huan, even if she knew that the defeat in her previous life was caused by Ling Tianhuan's aid, Nanyun Huan would not be willing to blame Ling Tianhuan for half a point.
A few days ago, she had only finished talking to those two. That's what people want.
Although Liu Zixian thought so in her heart, she showed something completely different.
"Really?!" Liu Zixian wanted to get up again and give Ximen Jiao a big salute, but this may not be too much like pretending, Ximen Jiao was already suspicious, in case people misunderstood that she also liked Nanyun Eucalyptus, it would be fun.
"Please forgive the master, the minister did not dare to salute and congratulate the master, so he had to congratulate the master verbally. Congratulations to the master on the achievement of his goal. ”
Congratulations, we have achieved our goal.
Ximen Jiao has been carried away by the joy of love, where can she still take care of the courtesy? Nanyun Eucalyptus is good-looking, and she is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and she is the son of the queen, although she is not single-minded, she Ximen Jiao believes that she can hold his heart.
"Qing'er is too worried. How can Hongu blame you? ”
On the other side, Nanyun Eucalyptus and Ling Tianhuan were "secretly Chencang".
With a "clang", Nanyun Eucalyptus rolled in through the window. Lan Xinzheng was beating Ling Tianhuan's shoulder, and she almost couldn't help laughing when she saw Nanyun Huan like this.
Nanyun Yu looked at Lan Xin with a little "dissatisfaction": "If you want to laugh, just laugh." ”
Ling Tianhuan was happy when he heard this, and put down the military book in his hand. Raising her eyes and looking at Lan Xin, this girl was really holding back a smile.
She played, and simply quipped: "Your Highness has allowed you to laugh, then laugh." I don't believe that the second prince will still touch my people. ”
Nanyun Yu looked at Ling Tianhuan's appearance and gave himself a thumbs up in his heart. She's happy! She's happy!
"Yes, yes, how dare you touch Miss Ling's people?" Nagumo approached, and Lan retreated outside the door with interest.
Before Ling Tianhuan could get up and dodge, Nanyun Eucalyptus had already come up to him.
His head leaned closer to her, and Ling Tianhuan leaned back vigorously, looking disgusted.
Nanyun Yu's face sank, like a child getting angry, he took a few steps back, and sat on the chair next to him with his own ass: "Hmph." I didn't expect that one day, the main hall would be such a jade tree in the wind, gentle and elegant, polite, graceful, dignified, and magnificent......"
"Stop!" Ling Tianhuan smiled and interrupted with a heaving chest, "You're enough." ”
Nagumo knew that she was really happy. But he had another idea. She wouldn't really feel like she didn't like her anymore and then finally get rid of him, so happy, right?!
Ling Tianhuan laughed a few times, straightened his face again, and looked at it, why was this person's face bad?
"What's wrong with you?" Only then did Ling Tianhuan realize that he was out of shape, and stood up to apologize, "The courtier's gaffe, I hope Your Highness is not strange." ”
Nagumo snorted proudly, well, he couldn't get angry.
"Didn't you say before that you don't have to be formal?" Nagumo said with a little reproach.
If it weren't for Ling Tianhuan knowing that he liked him, he would definitely not know at this moment, this is coquettishness.
"But Your Highness, the courtiers also said that we must have very few opportunities like this in private."
As soon as these words came out, Ling Tianhuan regretted it a little.
Why did she forget to get along day and night now!
Nanyun Yu didn't give Ling Tianhuan face, and directly scolded back: "Yes." There are few opportunities now, and we can only get along day and night. ”
"...... or do you want to get out?" If you get out, you won't get along day and night. Ling Tianhuan thought to herself.
Ling Tianhuan said coldly: "Your Highness is here, what do you command?" To put it bluntly, if the courtiers can do it, they must do their best. ”
One sentence brought Nagumo back to the point.
Nanyun Eucalyptus can also see it now, if he came to discuss with Ling Tianhuan, then without Ling Tianhuan's "sober" brain, I am afraid that he will not be able to get to the point for half a day.
Obviously, Nanyun Eucalyptus also told herself again and again before she came: Be steady, don't be full of love, don't think about taking these opportunities to contact her, she may be very annoying. It's also a big delay. However, Nagumo couldn't do it.
