Chapter 264: First Contact with Dongling

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the teahouse, and Su Tingcheng noticed that in an alley not far from the teahouse, there was a carriage that looked low-key and luxurious, but no one's flag was missing.

She had a guess in her heart, and she couldn't help but speed up the pace of stepping into the teahouse.

I saw that the teahouse was empty, and there was a man dressed as Nanye at the counter who was talking to Fluttershy with his back to Su Tingcheng, who didn't know that she was coming, and when she saw it, she was slightly stunned and quickly reacted, and stepped forward to greet her, "Why is the princess here?" This is the attendant of the four princes of Dongling, and he is here to charter the teahouse. ”

Su Qingcheng glanced at the man in front of him, and said with a polite smile: "I don't know what your four princes are doing in the teahouse every day?" ”

"You are Su Chengcheng?" The man's face was good, warm as jade, but his eyes stared at Su Tingcheng directly, looking up and down very unceremoniously, a trace of surprise crossed his eyes, and his tone was frivolous, "She is worthy of being the first beauty in Nanye, and she is better than the twenty-four solar terms in the backyard of the four princes." ”

Su Qingcheng frowned slightly, ignoring the man's ridicule, and pulled Fluttershy aside and asked, "How many days have he been here?" ”

Fluttershy nodded blankly, and the latter said, "Go down and I'll deal with him." ”

"Yes."

Fluttershy takes everyone in the lobby away and closes the door.

Su Tingcheng came to the man's face at this time, and said generously: "If the fourth prince likes tea, this princess can send some to Dongling, the teahouse relies on repeat customers, does the fourth prince want me to go out of business?" ”

The man's smile froze on his face, and after a moment, he burst out laughing: "The daughter of the Su family...... Sure enough, how did you guess that I was the Fourth Prince? ”

He put his hands behind his back, his eyes full of anticipation.

"The carriage hidden in the alley does not have a flag, it is worth a lot of money, and the alley at the parking place is too cramped, if there are people inside, it will feel very depressing," Su Qingcheng said as he raised his hand to invite the four princes of Dongling to sit down at the table, and said unhurriedly, "Ordinary attendants will not travel in such a noble carriage, and besides, your subconscious name for me is exposed." ”

There was a tea set on the table, and after Su Tingcheng said that, he shook his sleeves slightly, opened the tea leaves on the table into the teapot, and poured boiling water slowly, and the fragrance of tea spread instantly.

The fourth prince clasped his hands on his chest to enjoy the beauty making tea, and she said coldly: "Why don't you get separated from the legless prince and marry Dongling with this prince?" ”

Su Chengcheng saw the seriousness in his eyes, and he was really disgusted with this frivolous playboy, but at the moment he was the only person who could find out about the war between the two countries.

She endured her temperament, poured the tea into the teacup and pushed it to him, and corrected: "My husband is the king of Yunan, and he is not a prince with missing legs. ”

The fourth prince pursed his lips, disappreciating, and didn't seem to feel that what he said offended others, he picked up the teacup, and kept touching his fingers repeatedly in the place where Su Qingcheng had touched.

"Now, the fourth prince can say why he has chartered my teahouse every day." Su Qingcheng said coldly.

The tea was no longer hot, and the four princes drank it all, their expressions became serious, and they said, "This prince is here to make a deal with you." ”

"What deal?" Su Tingcheng was overjoyed, if the fourth prince begged her again, maybe he could propose two truce conditions to him.

"Tomorrow's state banquet, find a way to smash it, so that this prince has a reason to provoke a war between the two countries."

Su Qingcheng's heart instantly turned cold, but his face was not obvious: "Why? Although there are occasional frictions on the border between the two countries, if the battle is really moved, it will be innocent people who suffer. ”

"This battle, Dongling will fight," the fourth prince looked serious, and the hand holding the teacup couldn't help but tighten, "and it is best to be facilitated by this prince." ”

"So, it was Emperor Dongling who wanted to fight this battle, but he couldn't find a reason, so he threw the problem to his sons who wanted to be the next emperor," Su Qingcheng's face was calm, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly raised, and his tone was very determined, "So you came to Nanye, it seems that your Dongling royal family is not very peaceful." ”

The fourth prince was stunned for a moment and then smiled evilly: "You are really smart...... You should think about what I said just now, if you really marry, I will make you a concubine. ”

Su Tingcheng sneered: "Why not the queen?" ”

"How can there be a reason to let a foreign woman be the mother of a country, besides, ......" He realized that he was being led by Su Tingcheng by the nose and almost leaked more information, and couldn't help but start to be wary of this iceberg beauty, "You haven't listened to my conditions for cooperation." ”

"Tell me about it." Su Tingcheng said lightly.

She raised her glass and took a sip of tea, but her mind was no longer there.

Since the war between the two countries had been planned by Emperor Dongling for a long time, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't change it.

"If you wish me a hand, this prince promises to help you keep the Su family." The Four Princes said.

Su Tingcheng felt ridiculous, and asked rhetorically: "The mountain is high and the road is far away, even if you ascend the throne, how can you protect the Su family in Dongling, which is thousands of miles away?" I'm afraid that I will add a charge of treason to my Su family. ”

"It's very simple, the Su family just needs to move to Dongling." The fourth prince said easily.

"Impossible, the Su family can't do this kind of thing." Su Qingcheng didn't care what country she lived in, but she knew Su Qingcang well, and he wouldn't allow her to leave Nanye.

It is already the limit for Su Qingcang to refuse the emperor and stay away from the imperial court, how can he turn his back on the country he has protected all his life......

"If you can't do it now, you won't have to do it in the future." The corners of the four princes' mouths rose, and they seemed to be very determined.

Su Qingcheng didn't want to explore where his inexplicable confidence came from, and said lightly: "Su family, I will protect myself." ”

"So, it's more than a deal?" The fourth prince's tone rose, and it seemed that it was a pity that Su Qingcheng saw through him at a glance.

Who can stand out from the many princes and come to Nanye to perform tasks, how can she be the only choice.

"Of course, the talk is successful, and it just so happens that I also have something I want the four princes to help me." Su Qingcheng smiled gently, more dazzling than the warm sun in winter.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

———

Su Chengcheng didn't return to the palace until dark, she wanted to go directly to Ye Yutai to tell him about today's events, but as soon as she entered the door, she found that the lights in his study were off.

"When did the prince leave the palace?" She asked the maid.

"Back to the princess, I walked with you back and forth." The maid replied.

Su Tingcheng nodded slightly and walked towards his courtyard, Danmo hurriedly walked out of Wuya's room, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"Princess, Miss Wuya is gone!" Danmo's expression was solemn, she knew how important Wu Ya was to Su Chengcheng, and she also knew that it was safe to have Wu Ya in Su Chengcheng.
