Chapter 194: A Friend with a Knife in Both Ribs (Two in One)

After returning from the Queen Mother, Shen Lingxi returned to Anhua Palace and saw Yun Yu who hurriedly entered the palace in the morning.

"Originally, I was going to follow into the palace yesterday." Yun Yu's face was full of apologies, "I didn't expect that Yun Guo had a secret envoy to look for him, and he delayed the hour......

He asked with concern: "I heard that many things happened in the palace last night, have you been injured?" ”

Shen Lingxi shook his head.

She invited Yun Yu to the side hall where she lived last night, and told Yun Yu all the things she knew about the little aunt from the female ghosts.

At the end, she said: "Danzhu confided in public that there was another hidden story in the case of the violent death of the former prince, if it is really as she said, as the identity of the little aunt Donggong Liangdi, and the princess of Heqin, she has no relatives and no reason in Da Zhou, she must not have the ability and connections to do such things as 'intercepting Imperial Doctor Liu' and 'going to the Tai Hospital for leave for Imperial Doctor Liu'." ”

"Now that this case has been led out by Danzhu, I believe that Chu Yan will take the opportunity to investigate it, which is just an opportunity to overturn the case for my little aunt."

"Right now, since I know that my little aunt is in the imperial mausoleum, and the imperial mausoleum is not something that ordinary people can enter, after weighing it, I decided to fake a marriage with the imperial grandson, hoping to take this opportunity to wash away the grievances of the little aunt."

"Fake marriage...... "Yun Wei twisted his eyebrows, "what does it mean?" ”

"I'm just temporarily the nominal concubine of the imperial grandson, to help him get rid of these stigma now, and so that he doesn't have to be troubled by marriage anymore." Shen Lingxi's eyes burned and said, "In exchange, he promised me three conditions. ”

Yun Yu's eyebrows were about to rise to the sky.

He never thought that in just one night, the two people who were still screwing before would make such rapid progress, it was really ...... More than he could have imagined.

"This is what he brought up? Did he take the initiative to make a deal with you? Yun Yu hurriedly asked.

Shen Lingxi nodded, "When I sneaked into your mansion with him and hidden, I pretended to be a couple with him when I hid the lair of the Moon Pavilion. He said that as long as I played with him like I did at that time, I deceived the queen mother, the emperor and the ministers, and let them stop urging marriage. ”

Speaking of this, she paused, "When Ah Weng was alive, I wanted to hide in the coffin when I was urging marriage, and it was really uncomfortable, and I also understood his suffering, so I should repay his kindness." ”

Yun Yu looked at her strangely.

I didn't know what to say for a while.

Maybe if you fake a marriage, you can fake a marriage.

As the saying goes, the building near the water gets the moon first.

After getting married, both of them were "close" to live under the same roof -

If His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson still fails to make his sister open her heart and accept him.

It means that they are indeed destined.

When the time comes, he may have tried his best to give his sister a way out.

As long as he lives, he will definitely protect his sister and will never let her repeat the mistakes of her previous life.

Yun Yu secretly made a decision, raised his eyes to look at Shen Lingxi, and said softly: "Originally, I planned to work with my sister to find my little aunt and then go back to Yunjiang......"

"Now that there are some changes in Yunjiang, since my sister has chosen to marry the imperial grandson temporarily, then I should have made plans early. If you don't want to be the concubine of Da Zhou in the future, you can have a place to go......"

"Plan ahead?" Shen Lingxi asked suspiciously, "What does this mean?" ”

Yun Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, "Yesterday, the secret envoy came to report that my father was seriously ill. He learned of my situation in the Great Zhou, and specially sent someone to take me back, and the excerpt of the Yunjiang envoy and the request for his life will be handed over to the Emperor of the Great Zhou in the near future. ”

"I'm going to Yunjiang...... I don't know when I'll be back, but my sister must protect herself. ”

Shen Lingxi looked at his expression, saw his elegant eyebrows and eyes, and brought a little gloom when he mentioned his father and Yunjiang.

Thinking about it again, when she first saw Yun Yu, he was locked in the cellar by the people of the Hidden Moon Pavilion.

Although the Hidden Moon Pavilion was backed by the Zhao family, the Zhao family was in the Great Zhou because of the relationship between Zhao Guifei and Concubine Zhao.

But as the most favored youngest son of King Yunjiang, Yun Yu should not have fallen to the point where he was imprisoned for four months, but no one cared about him.

There must be some reason for this.

"Will there be any danger if you return to Yunjiang this time?" Shen Lingxi asked tentatively.

Yun Yu breathed slightly.

But then, he raised his eyes, a smile tugged at the corner of his lips, and he looked at her in great surprise, "Why did Sister suddenly ask that?" It's not that you don't know that my father has always favored me the most, so what danger can I have? ”

Shen Lingxi: "The previous Hidden Moon Pavilion ......"

"The Zhao family blocked the news, it was an accident."

Yun Yu quickly interrupted her words and explained with a smile: "Sister, think about it, my father is seriously ill and still wants to call me back, maybe he has the intention of passing the throne to me...... If I sit on the throne of the king of Yunjiang in the future, my sister will have an extra backer, and then I will take you to the holy mountain to worship Queen Zanxi, won't everyone be happy? ”

The late Empress Zanxi of Yunguo is Shen Lingxi's mother-in-law.

Shen Lingxi saw that Yun Yu's expression was sincere, not like a fake, and finally put his mind at ease.

"Okay, you can go with peace of mind, now that you know where your little aunt is, you will leave the rest to me. When the little aunt is rescued, I will go back to Yunjiang with the little aunt and reunite with you. ”

Yun Wei smiled and nodded.

Coming out of the side hall, Yun Yu happened to meet Chu Yan who came back from the Zhaode Palace.

On the grounds of official business, he entered the study alone with Chu Yan.

Yun Yu gave Chu Yan a Yunjiang salute, "...... Please also ask Your Highness not to tell my sister about my situation in Yunjiang, so as not to make my sister think too much. ”

Chu Yan frowned invisibly, "The King of Yunjiang is seriously ill, the prince of the King of Yunjiang wants to put you to death, with your current ability, going back is tantamount to sending you to death, if Lingxi knows that you take such a risk to go back, he will definitely not agree." Lone can't hide this from her. ”

Yun Yu knew that he would say this, and maintained the posture of greeting him, looking modest, but his voice was very sharp:

"If Your Highness tells my sister about this, then I will tell her that His Highness is marrying her this time because he sincerely loves her, and he has never thought of separating from her in the future......"

Chu Yan's eyes instantly cooled, and his body was filled with a strong killing intent.

"No one dares to threaten Lonely." He beat in a calm voice, "Dead people don't talk much, anyway, it's a dead end if you go back, I don't mind if you can't open your mouth directly." ”

Yun Yu lowered his head and smiled.

"Your Highness, haven't you forgotten that my sister can see ghosts."

Chu Yan: ......

Yun Yu raised his eyes and looked directly at Chu Yan, his dark eyes were full of stubbornness that he was not afraid of death, "Sister regards this family matter as a transaction to repay His Highness." And His Highness was really moved. My sister never thought about getting married. If she knew His Highness's affection for her, then she would definitely stay away so as not to live up to His Highness's affection......"

"At the beginning, my sister was like this to Mu Huai'an. His Royal Highness and Sister have only known each other for a few months, does His Royal Highness think that His Royal Highness's affection for His Royal Highness will be deeper than that for Mu Huai'an? ”

"Does Your Highness think that after your sister knows His Highness's affection for her, will she treat Her Highness differently than she treats Mu Huai'an?"

Chu Yan's sword eyebrows frowned.

These words made him immediately remember that when he was in Heming Tower, he had heard it with his own ears, and Shen Lingxi said to Mu Huai'an-

and Mu Huai'an are "best friends".

And with him, it is "Pingshui Meeting".

Yun Yu's words, although they sounded very harsh.

But Chu Yan had to admit that Yun Yu was telling the truth.

This family affair was originally obtained by him by force.

Thinking of that day in the palace, when he first mentioned "marriage" with Shen Lingxi, Shen Lingxi's various reactions-——

Chu Yan closed his eyes, "Okay, Lone promised you." ”

Yun Yu's eyes were slightly relaxed, and he bowed and thanked him.

"I can't participate in the wedding of His Royal Highness and my sister this time, Yun Yu wishes His Highness the best of luck in the future......

"Just those words, please don't pay too much attention to your Highness. Based on my understanding of my sister, if she really didn't have the slightest affection for Her Royal Highness, she would never agree to this family affair, after all, she was ...... Didn't she agree to marry Mu Huai'an? ”

"I think His Royal Highness is still more ...... than Mu Huai'an."

"Well, no need to say more." Chu Yan's cold voice interrupted Yun Yu's words.

At this time, when he heard the words "Mu Huai'an", he had a headache.

"Lone will transfer a team of men and horses, send you out, and escort you back to Yunjiang." He said in a deep voice.

Yun Yu didn't expect that he was just a brother of his sister's "sworn worship" on the surface, and he would be taken care of like the imperial grandson, and his eyes were full of surprise.

"You'd better stay alive." Chu Yan looked at him and said solemnly: "I don't want to see her sad for your death one day." I don't want to hide it from her for you, and let Lone lose her trust. ”

Yun Yu pursed his lips, lowered his head, and said with a rare sincere respect: "Got it, brother-in-law." Sister, take care of ...... more"

This "brother-in-law" made Chu Yan feel very pleasant.

His eyebrows and eyes were flat, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, he stretched out his hand, patted Yun Yu's shoulder, and said softly: "Give you another team of people, you take care." Go ahead. ”

*

Although there was Mu Xue'e's accident, the itinerary of the emperor's mausoleum will not be delayed.

The emperor ordered that the cases of Mu Xue'e and the Soul Lock Well Underground Palace should be handled by Chu Yan with full authority, and then he set off and went to the imperial tomb with the queen mother and the queen.

And Shen Lingxi, as the person who had been ordered by the emperor to "drive away" Chu Yan before, was naturally also retained.

Those who stayed with them were Mu Huai'an.

Mu Huai'an was the most trusted Shaoqing of Dali Temple by the emperor, and the emperor Qin sent him to stay behind to assist Chu Yan in investigating the case.

Although, Mu Huai'an knew from Shen Lingxi that she was about to marry Chu Yan.

But the emperor's decree and the queen mother's decree were not issued for a day, and Shen Lingxi was still the Miao Ling Dao Chief, the shopkeeper of the Shen family's coffin shop, not a concubine.

Mu Huai'an naturally would not let go of the few opportunities to get along with Shen Lingxi on an equal footing.

So, in the study of Anhua Palace.

When Shen Lingxi listened to the descriptions of those female ghost sisters, he drew on rice paper the portrait of the suspect who had been the name of the former crown princess on the wall of the underground palace of the Soul Lock Well ten years ago-——

Mu Huai'an stood beside her, with slender and white hands holding the sleeves of his robe, cutting paper, grinding ink for her, and adding tea to her from time to time.

It can be described as extremely attentive.

Chu Yan was hindered by the evil qi around him, so he could only lean against the window in the distance, unable to get close.

He watched Mu Huai'an's movements coldly, and his black eyes, as if splashed with thick ink, hid the displeasure and vinegar deep in the bottom of his eyes.

Shen Lingxi really couldn't stand Mu Huai'an's sudden hospitality.

lowered his voice and said to him: "I can come by myself, don't ask Shaoqing to help......"

"What? Afraid that His Highness will be jealous? ”

Mu Huai'an squinted his eyes at her, and replied to her in a low voice, "The will to marry has not yet been made at this time, you are afraid of this and that, and if you become a relative in the future, won't you be pinched by him?" I heard that between newlyweds, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind, you have to test his bottom line, you have to be able to hold him, and then you can do whatever you want in the future. ”

Shen Lingxi looked at him strangely.

Mu Huai'an: "No thanks, master, I'm also risking my life to help you." ”

Shen Lingxi: ......

She and Chu Yan are not real, how can they say "temptation".

But this kind of thing is not easy to say to Mu Huai'an, she can only say, "Your Highness knows that you and I are just friends, and I won't think about it much, so Shaoqing doesn't have to do anything more." ”

Mu Huai'an sighed.

The words "just friends" are really heart-wrenching.

He took a deep breath and turned sideways, staring at the sight of death coming from the window.

"Whether it's too much of a move or not, you have to try it to find out."

"If I disappear tomorrow, I will be your future husband, not generous enough, you remember to save me."

"I'm also sticking a knife in your ribs this time, you can't help but be righteous, after all, the two of us are 'friends'."

This time, Mu Huaian did not deliberately lower the volume to ensure that with Chu Yan's ear power, he could hear his words.

It's just the word "friend", and it still bites his cheeks.

Chu Yan's dark eyes, hearing these words, became much deeper.

It seems that this will of marriage has to be urged again.

Shen Lingxi, who was focusing on the portrait, didn't notice the long-distance edge of the two.

For her, this is the first time that Mu Huaian has called herself a "friend" in front of her.

No longer talk about "asking for marriage" and "marrying" all day long.

It means that after the frank conversation in the morning, Mu Huai'an has completely let go.

This made Shen Lingxi lose his psychological burden, and it was rare to feel that he could get along with him easily.

Shen Lingxi smiled.

It was difficult to explain, so I didn't say anything more, so I just let him go.

The female ghost sisters who surrounded the three of them assisted Shen Lingxi in painting the portrait of the suspect, and did not forget to eat melons.

"There is such a big smell of vinegar by the window, let me, a ghost with all five senses, smell it."

"Tsk, Xiao Shaoqing has red lips and white teeth, so handsome, especially these peach blossom eyes, tender like water. Let me, as a sister, look at it, and my heart will melt. ”

"Xiao Shaoqing won't be interesting to us little girls, right? Hey, it's a pity, our little girl has already agreed to Xiao Langjun's proposal. Actually, Xiao Shaoqing is not bad......"

Shen Lingxi's eyebrows jumped.

Fortunately, when talking with Mu Huai'an outside Shou'an Palace in the morning, these female ghost sisters all went to Zhaode Hall with Chu Yan to watch the excitement.

If it weren't for that, it wouldn't be just a joke......

Shen Lingxi finally finished painting the portrait of the suspect, dried the ink on it, walked to the window, and showed it to Chu Yan.

When Chu Yan saw the appearance of the person in the painting, his face changed slightly......
