Chapter 14: The palace does not ask for help

The two pairs of reserve camp guards that Ye Suiyun promised had already arrived at the princess's mansion, and coincidentally, Xu Ningqin also came.

Shangguan Kite sat down, and Qiu Yun came over and whispered: "The little county lord sent someone back and forth to the princess, saying that there is nothing for the princess, but you can find it for the princess." ”

"Huh?" Shangguan Kite sounded as if she had an unfinished meaning, so she raised her eyebrows and looked at Ali, "What does she want?" ”

Qiu Yun said helplessly: "The little county lord said...... Recently, the family has been strict, and she can't get out, so she wants to ask the princess to help. ”

Shangguan Kite was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

She can help Chu Mingzhi come out temporarily, but what about later? How many women from a big family can maintain their lively temperament?

Seeing that in another two years, Chu Mingzhi should also discuss marriage, with the family style of the Chu family, I am afraid that it will be more difficult for her to come out in the future......

Qiu Yun had already noticed that Shangguan Kite's mood was not good, and it was not easy to be funny at this time, so he quietly glanced at Qinghe with some worry.

Qinghe shook her head lightly at her, she followed Shangguan Kite into Daming Palace, and naturally knew that Shangguan Kite was really not in a funny mood at this time.

It was also at this time that Xu Ningqin came.

She changed into a light blue skit, and her energetic appearance was obviously something good.

It's just that she is indeed a keen person, and when she enters the door, she notices that the air pressure is wrong, and after saluting, she stands silently to the side, and does not speak rashly.

Shangguan Kite was also gentle to her: "Why did you come to the palace early in the morning?" ”

"I want to return to the princess a happy event, yesterday the princess just helped the grass people solve the problem of the land, it just so happened that the grass people's boat arrived last night, and the silk cutting machine arrived at two, the princess is interested in taking a look first?"

Xu Ningqin also felt that Shangguan Kite was interested in this, so she rushed over to ask, who knew when she met the eldest princess who was in a bad mood.

Shangguan Kite nodded: "It's okay." ”

She remembered something again, "This palace asked Lord Ye to choose two teams of guards, and let them patrol around your factory when they go back." ”

"Ahh Xu Ningqin was a little surprised, and then joy flooded her face, "The eldest princess is really thoughtful, and the grass people thought about hiring some thugs before......"

"When the grass people built the factory, they were also prepared for their accommodation, thank you for the eldest princess's trouble!" Xu Ningqin was overjoyed, and even offered to share the dividends with Shangguan Kite.

This should have been thought of by her a long time ago, and she even brought documents over to share the five components of the silk cutting factory's income with the eldest princess's mansion.

Shangguan Kite did not refuse, she was not short of silver, but she also understood that having money would make her relationship with Xu Ningqin stronger.

When he looked at the silk cutting machine again, Xu Ningqin went up to show Shangguan Kite how to operate.

This is indeed novel and interesting, Shangguan Kite also tried it, and what she had never seen somewhat diluted her depressed mood.

Xu Ningqin observed the words and looks, and saw that Shangguan Kite finally brought some smiles, so when he sat down to rest later, he said in a low voice: "There are still a lot of novelties in the grass people, if the eldest princess likes it, the grass people will bring some more and show the eldest princess a little fun?" ”

She originally wanted to please Shangguan Kite when she said this, but Shangguan Kite was moved in her heart when she heard it.

That thing is not available to the little county lord, perhaps, someone like Xu Ningqin, maybe he can know?

Anyway, Shangguan Kite is not ready to use the channels in the palace, so as not to be detected by Shangguan Jin'an in advance, so it is better to ask the "partner".

Let Qinghe take the rest of the people to retreat a little, Shangguan Yuan looked at Xu Ningqin, hesitated for a moment, and still asked, "You, do you have such a thing as incense?" ”

Xu Ningqin immediately straightened up, and didn't ask much: "The grass people have come and gone over the years, and they have always encountered some people who are not self-sufficient. ”

Seeing that Shangguan Kite's eyes were slightly bright, she continued: "The grass people went to fetch it for the eldest princess? Want some fine spices? ”

"It doesn't matter up or down, just use it." Shangguan Yuan smiled.

"Then the grass people will go and fetch it for the princess."

Xu Ningqin was really a neat person, and it was useless to have lunch, so he hurriedly sent a small box of incense.

According to her, this incense seems to be very small, but it is no problem to charm ten big men.

Shangguan Kite took advantage of the afternoon nap to let the palace maid try the effect, and was very satisfied, and carefully put away the half-burned incense.

It was not easy to find something to his heart, but when it was approaching dusk, a holy decree was finally sent to the princess's mansion.

"September 15th?!" Shangguan Kite took the holy decree and laughed directly.

Okay, good, Shangguan Jin'an really can't wait.

Thinking about it, if it weren't for the September Festival in the palace, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to wait for September 15!

The wedding date was set, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs followed, saying that they would prepare a dowry for the eldest princess in accordance with the rules.

Shangguan Iris raised his eyes: "Didn't you prepare for it last time?" Why bother with all of you? ”

"The Queen Mother is worried that there is something inappropriate in the dowry prepared last time, so she specially asked the ministers and others to come to screen them one by one." The father-in-law of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said with a smile.

Shangguan Kite sneered.

Well, she was sick and the lantern was struck by lightning, all because the dowry was unknown, so it wasn't a bad marriage!

She waved her hand, and a palace maid stepped forward to lead everyone to the courtyard where the dowry was placed.

"Princess." Qing He looked at Shangguan Kite with some concern, "Why don't you go and beg the Queen Mother again?" ”

"After this palace, no one will ask for it." Shangguan Kite replied with his eyes closed.

Before the words fell, an announcement sounded outside, it was Ye Suiyun who came.

He had not yet changed into a black armor, and he had obviously arrived in a hurry.

Seeing Shangguan Kite, he hesitated slightly, then knelt on one knee, bowed his head and said, "The minister is guilty, and the thing promised to the princess has not been completed." ”

"There is still more than a month to go, everything is still undecided, and there is still time." Shangguan Kite raised his eyes and looked at him, "Your Excellency is still willing to help me." ”

"If the minister promises the princess that day, he should keep his promise."

"You get up first." Shangguan Kite supported his head with one hand, gritted his teeth and thought about his plan again, thinking that it should be no problem.

As soon as she wanted to speak, she heard Ye Suiyun quickly say in a low voice: "If you really can't, the minister will make someone sneak into Zhou's house......"

After a pause, he added, "I'm just afraid that it will bring a bad reputation to the princess." ”

Shangguan Kite paused for a moment before he understood what he meant.

Oh, her marriage date with Zhou Taining has been set, if Zhou Taining dies at home at this time, I am afraid that she will be named a Kefu.

"It doesn't matter, but it doesn't have to." Shangguan Kite laughed sincerely, "Don't dirty your hands for such a fool. ”

Ye Suiyun didn't seem to expect Shangguan Kite to say this, and after a pause, he said softly: "Today, the emperor returned to the harem after being busy, but found Tang Guifei...... is really hospitable, and even invited friends to the palace to drink tea. ”

What he said was abrupt and strange, and Shangguan Yuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted: "Then the so-called friend won't be surnamed Zhou, right?" ”

"The eldest princess is smart." Ye Suiyun raised his eyes to look at her, with a smile on his lips.
