Growth Volume Chapter 262: To Each His Heart
When Xiao Chen left, Hu Chu's kind face instantly showed indifference.
"Someone!"
A guard walked into the room.
"Lord Wang!"
"Go and find out, what is the origin of that woman named Du Yingying!"
"Yes!"
The guards left, and Ling Hu Chu sat in his seat all the time, looking thoughtfully at the direction in which Xiao Chen left.
About an hour later, the guard walked into the house quickly and bowed to Ling Huchu:
"Back to the prince, Du Yingying's identity has been ascertained."
"Say!"
"That Du Yingying is the only daughter of Yongan Taishou, and her mother Qin is indeed Concubine De's uncle, and we also inquired that the relationship between Du Yingying and Xiao Chen has not been very good."
Linghu Chu frowned: "Oh, what is the reason?" ”
The guard said: "We don't know much about this, but it's probably because Xiao Chen forcibly abducted Du Yingying back to the palace. ”
With a look of relief on his face, Hu Chu's fingers tapped lightly on the bench. Suddenly shaking his head and laughing, Ling Hu Chu laughed and said, "This Xiao Chen is really not doing his job. ”
Waving his hand: "Okay, I know, you go down first." By the way, I will go to Yong'an Wang Xiaochen later, and take that Du Yingying to the backyard, and when they meet each other, I think there should be a lot to say......"
"Yes!" The guard bowed and slowly left.
……
The backyard of the palace, built against the clear water and green mountains, with countless pavilions and pavilions, Du Yingying bypassed countless winding corridors under the leadership of the guards, and finally came to the pavilion by the water.
Respectfully made a gesture of invitation, and the guard said, "Girl, please wait here for a while, and I will go to inform Concubine De." ”
Du Yingying nodded slightly, and then sat casually on the stone bench in the pavilion.
Around the pavilion, there is a pond of lake water, there are countless fish swimming in the water, the water surface is clear and blue, especially good-looking, in the distance, there is a waterfall pouring down from the mountain stream, forming a huge waterhole below, on both sides of the waterhole, there are seven or eight places respectively to build gorgeous pavilions, at a glance, it is refreshing and pleasant.
Soon, a beautiful woman in a luxurious long dress slowly approached the pavilion under the guidance of the guards.
The woman was wearing a cyan dress embroidered with a bird, the tight skirt showed the woman's graceful figure to the fullest, and the delicate face with light red makeup looked like a person who came out of the painting.
"Niangniang, this is the person who wants to see you." The guards led the woman to the pavilion, gave a brief introduction, and then slowly retreated to the far side of the pavilion.
Concubine De looked Du Yingying in the pavilion up and down, and then Tian Ya smiled: "I heard that you are my cousin?" ”
Du Yingying is just the daughter of the border city guard, where has she seen the royal style in Kyoto, and then bowed a little hastily and said: "Du Yingying, the folk girl, has seen Niangniang." ”
Waving her hand, Concubine De smiled with a slightly bitter smile: "What is Concubine De, just call me cousin, my situation, you actually know better than me, saying that it is Concubine De, but in fact she is just a bird in a cage." ”
Du Yingying didn't speak, just lowered her head deeply. Concubine De's situation, how could she not be clear.
Slowly came to Du Yingying's side and sat down, Concubine De glanced at Du Yingying up and down, and suddenly said:
"I heard, you are the maid of Xiao Chen, the king of Yong'an?"
"Huh?!" Du Yingying opened her mouth in surprise, but when she thought about it, her identity was not just like a maid.
Looking at Du Yingying, Concubine De smiled lightly and said: "I heard that Xiao Chen, the king of Yong'an, is an extremely handsome young man, and he led the Yong'an army to defeat the attack of the Qianguo not long ago, so he can really be described as a heroic young man." ”
Du Yingying was angry and complained: "What kind of hero is he, he is just a gentleman, he doesn't do his job all day long, and he messes with flowers, if he is a hero, there will be heroes everywhere in the sky." ”
Concubine De smiled like a flower: "A good man in the world, who is not accompanied by a few beautiful women?" ”
Du Yingying was choked and speechless.
Concubine De continued: "When I was young, my dream was to marry the biggest hero in the world, but it wasn't until I entered the palace later that I realized that dreams were fundamentally vulnerable in the face of reality. ”
"Later, the deep palace compound completely wiped out my expectations for the future, Yingying, you are facing a great opportunity now, if I were you, I would do my best to capture his heart, otherwise, you will definitely regret missing him in the future."
Du Yingying was slightly stunned, she didn't actually think about it this way, but as soon as she remembered that Xiao Chen was outside the city, looking at the wind and words that were taken away, and sitting in a position for an afternoon, a sense of powerlessness rose in her heart.
yes, how could she be compared to such a woman who was willing to give everything for him?
"In his heart, there are already people." Du Yingying was a little distracted.
Concubine De smiled gently: "It's up to you." After all, the relationship between the two of you is only clear to you. ”
After pondering for a moment, Du Yingying, who was in distress, shook her head gently: "Niangniang, don't talk about this, I heard from the palace that you and Your Majesty have had a conflict recently?" ”
When Concubine De heard this, she immediately glanced at the guards standing not far from the pavilion with her spare eyes, and after making sure that he couldn't hear her conversation, she carefully took Du Yingying's hand and said:
"I'll tell you the truth, this is a game set up by me and Your Majesty. In order to let Linghu Chu let down his guard against me, I can use this to get in touch with Xiao Chen. ”
Du Yingying was stunned for a moment, and said dumbfoundedly: "So all this is an illusion?" ”
Concubine De shook her head lightly: "Now that today, all forces have wolf ambitions, trying to get a piece of the Wei country's emaciated camel, and your majesty can only trust Xiao Chen now." ”
Du Yingying's eyes were earnest: "Niangniang, what can I do for you?" ”
Concubine De said: "Yingying, please be sure to tell the prince and let him rescue us." As for the conditions, they can be left to him. ”
Du Yingying thought seriously for a while and said, "But Xiao Chen only asked me to convey a word to Your Majesty." ”
"What?"
Du Yingying said suspiciously: "He said, let Your Majesty agree to the matter of Concubine Linghu Chu." But this made Hu Chu obviously uneasy and kind to His Majesty, at this time Xiao Chen also helped to abuse, I was thinking that His Majesty pinned his hopes on Xiao Chen, I am afraid that it is not human. ”
Concubine De frowned and pondered for a while, then nodded lightly and said, "You tell the prince, just say that I will definitely let Your Majesty agree." ”
Looking at Du Yingying's somewhat surprised and puzzled appearance, Concubine De shook her head lightly and said:
"Yingying, you have too much prejudice against that Yong'an prince, and sometimes, you may need to learn to get to know him seriously......"
