Chapter Twenty-Three: It's Outrageous
Ling Zhiqiao's eyes were dizzy when she saw his busy work, but she was also recognized by this scoundrel anyway, so she simply let it go.
Ling Zhiqiao coughed and said, "The courtiers are brave, since the queen mother and His Royal Highness the crown prince have selected the crown princess, the courtiers will go back to their seats." ”
"Wait!" Jiang Dawei has to be reassured, don't let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince choose her.
"You said it, Queen Mother! What you just said was Xiao Qinxue. The queen smiled slightly, and the smile made Jiang Dawei feel bad.
"Today, the prince will decide whoever he says."
Twilight clouds flew from cloudy to clear, and the eyes that were still gray just now immediately became clear, what kind of mercy did the queen mother send today? This kind of opportunity is not much, he was full of joy and was just about to say Ling Zhiqiao's name, when another voice came.
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince's selection of the crown princess is not very lively today, and this king also came to wait and see."
This voice hit Ling Zhiqiao's heart directly, it was King Yu, no! It's the second prince, no, it's the scumbag Mu Yunhan.
His Royal Highness Mu Yunhan's voice is full of magnetism, rigid and soft, his eyes are deep and chic, and his posture is outstanding and dignified.
Twilight Yunhan's heart was also surprised, why was this girl dressed up so beautifully, didn't she just talk to Han Li or just go through the motions? No wonder the prince was going to blurt out that he would choose her to be the crown princess just now.
He went up to the high platform and entered the luan tent: "See the queen mother, see His Royal Highness the prince!" ”
"Your Royal Highness is very interested, Jiang Dawei is here to visit the palace and His Royal Highness the Prince, are you just here to join in the fun?"
Twilight Yunhan knew that the queen mother didn't want to see him, but he didn't drag the mud and water, he pointed at Ling Zhiqiao with his finger: "Queen Mother, the son is here for the general's concubine, Ling Zhiqiao." ”
"Oh!" The queen raised her eyebrows, cursed in her heart, and dared to argue with the palace in person!
"This palace only knows that Xiao Qinxue from the General's Mansion wanted to marry you before, and I don't know that you and this concubine Ling Zhiqiao also know each other?" The queen mother's words were for Twilight Yunhan, but her eyes were looking at Ling Zhiqiao and she said.
"If the queen doesn't believe it, you can ask Jiang Xiaohou, and he can testify." Twilight Yunhan looked like he had a good relationship with Jiang Dawei.
Jiang Dawei was a little flattered and didn't understand his position, he thought that His Royal Highness was here to help him, so he hurriedly stood beside Du Yunhan and explained: "Yes, yes, I met with His Royal Highness that day, in the shop of the Nishang Pavilion in the capital, and I wanted to invite Miss Ling to dinner at that time." ”
The queen mother glanced at Jiang Dawei fiercely, she is a fool who does not distinguish between inside and out!
Twilight Yunhan didn't see it and continued: "I came here today to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for forgiveness, originally the concubine of the General's Mansion should not have come to participate in the selection of the Crown Princess, I have already proposed to the old general, but it has not been made public. ”
Jiang Dawei was stupid, not only he was stupid, but Xiao Qinxue was also stupid, even the queen mother and His Royal Highness the prince, as well as the nobles below, and even the female official and the little eunuch who wanted to work hard to tie up Ling Zhiqiao were also stupid.
When Ling Zhiqiao was called to the front just now, the little eunuch also secretly moved to the middle position, just to listen carefully, now that I see this situation, my heart is also beating a drum, I said that she can be elected as the crown princess, but it seems to be a bit too much, this is not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to choose her, it seems that Jiang Xiaohou and His Royal Highness also want to choose her.
Moreover, just now, His Royal Highness meant that he was married to the daughter of the general's mansion! The little eunuch was confused.
"What do you say? The queen finally stopped looking at ease.
"Back to the queen mother, the son said that Ling Zhiqiao has made a lifelong agreement with me, she is now my person, and I just went to the palace of the mother concubine, and I was about to take her over to give the mother a salute, maybe the mother will be fine as soon as she is happy, but the crown princess has to find another candidate." Twilight Yunhan's attitude is very deferential, and there is nothing wrong with what he says.
"When did she end up with you for life?" Jiang Dawei came to his senses, he was tricked by His Royal Highness, he was not with him, he came to dismantle the stage.
"Little Marquis, you forgot that she took my carriage that day, we hit it off at first sight and talked for a long time, so we decided right now, I will not marry her, she will not marry me."
"You, you, I don't believe it!" Jiang Dawei's angry gong throat was even more broken, and he stomped his feet as if he was about to cry.
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, what this king said is the truth, if the queen mother and His Royal Highness the prince don't believe it, you can also ask General Xiao to see if this king is in front of him, and the palace suddenly issued a famous brand, and there is no urgent report, but it is just right, anyway, I want to take her into the palace.
As soon as Dusk Yunhan finished speaking, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slowly got up and looked at him face to face, and there seemed to be countless lightning and flint in the eyes between the two.
Mu Yunfei's face didn't show any emotion, his lips moved slightly, and the words he said were so small that only Du Yunhan could hear them: "It seems that you want to rob me." ”
"It's not me who robbed you, it's mine." Mu Yunhan responded to him in the same voice, with an emperor-like undoubtedness.
There is no room for Jiang Dawei to speak at all in this gap, and he can't plug in, so he can only stare dryly and guess what the two people are talking about?
Seeing that the scene froze, the queen mother slowly got up and said: "Today, the palace has handed over the right to select the crown princess to His Royal Highness the Prince, as for whether His Royal Highness the crown prince can be elected today, the palace doesn't care." ”
The queen mother actually put a group of people outside the Fengluan Palace, she wanted to see if her son could fight against this arrogant Second Highness.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pushed Mu Yunhan away, stood on the edge of the high platform, and looked down at Ling Zhiqiao: "You, are you really committed to him for life?" ”
Ling Zhiqiao didn't expect Du Yunhan to come to such a play, but she had to cooperate with the act, but what this bastard said was too ambiguous, what do you mean that I am already his person, it seems that I have something to do with him Yes, but this prince's expression is completely different from just now, no, it is that there is no expression to look terrifying.
A gentle smile appeared on the corner of Mu Yunhan's mouth at this time, and he also looked at Ling Zhiqiao, as if that meant to say, I see how you answer now.
Ling Zhiqiao had no time to fight with him, she had to solve the matter in front of her eyes first, she bowed her head slightly and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the courtiers are indeed happy with the Second Highness, but the father received the name tag before he came to the urgent notice, so I have this oolong, and I hope His Royal Highness will atone for his sins." ”
"What if Your Highness has to be you?" Twilight asked.
Ling Zhiqiao's drooping face was a little surprised, but she immediately regained her composure and said, "The courtiers know that His Royal Highness will not win the love of others, and she is a future king who knows right and wrong. ”
This girl's skills seem to be a bit of a peak now, and Twilight Yunhan's head doesn't hurt at all this time.
Mu Yunfei's eyes returned to gray, and his voice was extremely cold and said to Ling Zhiqiao: "His Royal Highness is also decided, and the future king in your mouth will also win people's love, let's see!" Mu Yunfei also got up and left.
The important people in the selection of the crown princess this time have all left, leaving two irrelevant people, Jiang Dawei and His Royal Highness, and all the nobles and ladies began to talk about it.
Lady 1: "Who is this choosing?" ”
Lady 2: "To choose or not to choose?" ”
Lady 3: "I'm in the back, just listen to the General's Mansion, who will choose the General's Mansion?" ”
In order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, the female official hurriedly announced that today's selection of the crown princess is over, and all the nobles will go back in their own sedan chairs! Listen to the notice in the palace at another day.
Li Daiyun of the Imperial Doctor's family couldn't wait to run forward: "Ling Zhiqiao, you are really amazing, Your Royal Highness dares to rob people with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person, this meeting is too exciting!" When you return to the General's Mansion, you must send me a letter, don't forget to give me clothes, and what other beauty pills? Remember! ”
Li Daiyun threw out a bunch of words and ran away, only to find that Xiao Qinxue behind her had been sitting still and staring at her, with all kinds of complicated expressions in her eyes.
"What are you staring at me for?" Ling Zhiqiao asked deliberately.
Xiao Qinxue got up elegantly and slowly walked to Ling Zhiqiao's side: "You not only seduce His Royal Highness the Prince, but also dare to seduce His Royal Highness!" It's really shameless. ”
"Are you talking about me?" Ling Zhiqiao felt that Xiao Qinxue must have gone crazy with anger at this time, so she dared to lose her temper in front of so many people.
"Of course I'm talking about you, since you appeared, you've been against me everywhere, and I'm going to teach you a good lesson today." Xiao Qinxue was about to slap Ling Zhiqiao again, but she forgot that last time Mama Qin could stand in front of Ling Zhiqiao, this time it could be replaced by the second prince Du Yunhan, how could she succeed.
Xiao Qinxue's slap had just come out of force, and before the palm wind even swept Ling Zhiqiao's face, she was grabbed by Twilight Yunhan's wrist.
"Second Highness!" From Xiao Qinxue's widening pupils, Ling Zhiqiao saw the shadow of Twilight Yunhan, who was standing behind her, gently hugged her shoulders, and with just a slight push, Xiao Qinxue retreated a few steps.
"Miss Xiao Er, why don't you go back to the house soon, everyone is gone?"
He actually called me Miss Xiao Er, but he used to call me Qin Xue, Xiao Qinxue saw that Du Yunhan was so protective of Ling Zhiqiao, her eyes were full of tears, and there were still many noble ladies in the public who had not left, Xiao Qinxue realized that she had overreacted just now.
She gritted her teeth, stared viciously at the two people in front of her who looked very compatible, and turned her head into her sedan chair, Ling Zhiqiao didn't have to think about it to know that she had to go back and cry again.
Ling Zhiqiao looked back at Twilight Yunhan, at that moment just now, she was very overbearing by Twilight Yunhan, although she didn't need to be protected, she only needed one finger to deal with Xiao Qinxue.
How could Du Yunhan have thought that Ling Zhiqiao had gone to the Golden Camel Temple to confirm with Ling Ge Lao that he was the second prince, and he still thought that he was pretending to be quite similar.
