Qu Ning was stunned for a moment, obviously, there were very few people who knew that Lu Yanhua knew martial arts, and it was more reasonable for a weak woman to be chased and killed.

She stopped asking, and her eyelashes narrowed, her gaze falling on the water.

Prince, Lu Yanhua, they have too many secrets, right?

It's a secret that you'd rather hurt yourself than keep it.

Why?

Qu Ningxi faintly felt that it had something to do with the death of Queen Lu back then.

It is said that the Lu family is all brave and good at fighting, even if it is Queen Lu, she is also a chivalrous woman.

She may have kung fu, Qu Ningxi hadn't inquired about this aspect before, and everyone avoided talking about it after the queen's death.

Then, how could a person who studied martial arts be in good health and well, and then gently left the prince at an old age and died?

Was it a sudden illness, or was there another cause of death?

After taking a bath, Qu Ningxi's nasal voice became heavier.

Ying Chu helped her dry her hair, went outside to check the pulse of the imperial doctor, and in the middle of the night, she really started a high fever.

A large bowl of thick bitter medicinal juice was poured down, and it burned until the next morning, and then gradually subsided.

Because of his illness, he turned down many people who were kind enough to visit.

Ying Chu made a note of who had been here one by one, and let him know when he entered.

In the middle of the same day, the Autumn Hunting Army was going back to Beijing, and it would not be delayed because Qu Ningxi was alone.

However, he did not let her accompany him, and left the imperial doctor behind, so that he could recuperate for two more days, and it would not be too late to set off after recovery.

For this reason, Qu Yuancheng father and son thanked the emperor for his grace and stayed for a few more days.

As soon as His Majesty left, the whole palace was empty, except for the palace people who sprinkled and cleaned every day, and there were some guards and horsemen who guarded the paddock.

Qu Yun Shao Le is broken, there are so many horses in the stable, he can choose!

However, he was stopped by Qu Yuancheng and did not let him touch the horse.

Qu Yunshao had no choice, so he came to disturb Qu Ningxi when he turned around, and he refused to leave on the low couch, asking questions non-stop.

"Big sister, aren't you scared when you see the killer?"

"You actually dare to stand up and save people, that is the chivalrous act of the script!"

"Is the killer an abomination? Heart: Ruthless! ”

These were all things he had never seen but fantasized about.

The gauze on Qu Ningxi's forehead had not been removed, and he was in good spirits, so he glanced at him: "Have you learned to read the script?" ”

Qu Yunshao didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly, and compared his little thumb: "A little bit." ”

"Is it circulated among your classmates?" Qu Ningxi has also been to the school, and knows that students like to do this in private, she said: "Father and mother have high hopes for you, it's too early for you to read the script." ”

"But the second sister is also reading the script." Qu Yunshao snorted lightly, "I didn't even expose her!" ”

"She doesn't participate in the imperial examination, and besides, she has a sense of proportion."

According to Qu Ningxi's knowledge, Qu Chanyin has practiced calligraphy hard after entering school, and it has been very effective.

Qu Yunshao was speechless, and it was difficult to continue to chase and ask, but he was curious how Donggong would reward him.

Speaking of the word reward, Qu Ningxi was also a little curious.

Pei Yingxiao suddenly asked her to admit this credit, what did she want?

What did he want to give her?

The three of Qu's father and son stayed in the palace for two more days before they got into the carriage and returned to Beijing with the imperial physicians and guards.

The manpower is still left by the East Palace, and no one will feel strange at this time Pei Yingxiao's blatant care.

On the contrary, His Royal Highness the Prince, who is as gentle as jade, does not take care of his benefactor, which is inappropriate.

Qu Ningxi's head has been entangled for a few days, and it has scabbed at the beginning, and there is no need to cover the wound anymore, and it will get better faster when he sees the wind.

Pei Yingxiao ordered someone to bring her good medicine, saying that she would never leave a scar.

She didn't have any discomfort, and in order to give her beauty, Ying Chu instructed the kitchen to prepare bird's nest for many days, as if she could make up for her beauty within a few days.

Back in the capital, the Marquis of Anyong's Mansion soon knew what the thank you gift of the East Palace was.

Pei Yingxiao went to the imperial study and personally told Emperor Tianqing that when he was in danger, he had to be rescued by Miss Qu, and there were some overstepping actions on the way to the pit and self-rescue.

Although it was an unintentional act that was unavoidable, it was an established fact, and he wanted to take responsibility for it.

At that time, the queen was also there, and she was stunned when she heard it, but she didn't expect that the prince would admit that he had misbehaved against Qu Ningxi!

Yes! Falling into the pit, if it rolls into a ball, it is inevitable that the body will touch it!

And when you climb up, you always have to rely on the strength of another person, and you have to go back and forth, isn't there a lot of movement?

Emperor Tianqing frowned, this was the first time the prince had talked to him about his marriage.

He groaned, looked at the queen, and asked, "It's your niece, what do you think?" ”

Queen Qu came back to her senses and hurriedly sighed: "The two of them have gone through hardships together, in front of His Majesty and the crown prince, they naturally dare not chew the root of their tongues, but they are afraid that it will affect Wan Yu's marriage...... Thanks to the crown prince's admiration, how dare the concubine refuse? ”

At that moment, Empress Qu figured out that she and her niece had separated from each other, and Wan Yu had invited the old lady back, and obviously would not easily obey the marriage she had arranged.

A piece that is not easy to manipulate, and the value is halved at the sight.

At this time, if she can use her wife to abolish the prince...... It's not impossible.

Empress Qu relieved herself in front of Emperor Tianqing, and then said: "It's just that Wan Yu is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of An Yonghou's mansion, and she was raised by her concubine herself, so I really can't bear her to be wronged......

She said it tactfully, and Emperor Tianqing understood it, and turned his head to stare at her: "Do you want her to be the crown princess?" ”

Empress Qu didn't dare to show it too obviously, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that the people of the Hou Mansion are soft-spoken, and they can't share their worries for Your Majesty, so they can't compare to the Lu family and the Zheng family, but Wan Yu is indeed a good child, and you have watched her grow up......"

Pei Yingxiao arched his hand: "Father, the son wants to hire her as the crown princess." ”

Emperor Tianqing had a calm face, sat on the main seat, and did not rush to answer.

Pei Yingxiao said again: "Jiangshan Sheji is the responsibility of men, and it has little to do with female dependents. ”

The latter sentence goes to the heart of Emperor Tianqing.

He said in a deep voice: "It's good that the prince has this awareness, and the emperor should be in charge of the country." ”

When he was still a courtier, everyone forced him to marry the daughter of the Lu family.

Strong and capable, it can bring him a lot of benefits, and it presses him everywhere.

Emperor Tianqing never thought that as the Son of Heaven, he needed the help of a woman or even her mother's family.

He doesn't need his wife's maiden family, he wants a courtier.

Emperor Tianqing responded to the prince's request and wrote an edict, enlisting Qu Ningxi as the crown princess.

Pei Yingxiao thanked him for the decree, and planned to go to the eldest princess of the central university to talk to the media, and then announce the holy decree after going to the door to discuss with the Hou Mansion.

Emperor Tianqing agreed, and left the person in the imperial study to continue to teach him the art of imperial power.

When Empress Qu came out of the imperial study, her smile couldn't be suppressed at all.

"The prince is getting married, and my Linyu is coming back soon......"

Hehe, her son is not going well because of his concubine's marriage, and the prince doesn't want to marry a noble girl!

The Zheng family and the Wang family, no one can think about it, this is fair.

When this news leaked out, not to mention how the Marquis of Anyong's Mansion turned over on his back, the group of people in the East Palace couldn't sit still.

This is so good, how can there be a crown princess!

The grace of rescue, gratitude is true, gold, silver and jewelry can be offered, how to fall into the position of the crown princess?

It's ridiculous!

The dignified prince, the great favor cannot be repaid, and he promised each other with his body??

Chapter 31 31

Before the crown prince invited the eldest princess to say goodbye, Queen Qu first sent someone to the Marquis of Anyong's mansion to inform her.

lest you be caught off guard and make a joke.

And let me know as soon as possible, in case Mrs. Hu has objections, or Qu Ningxi is disobedient.

This time, Queen Qu did not let Xiuxiang go out in person, but arranged for a father-in-law who was not too old to come to report the good news with a smile.

The whole of the Marquis of Anyong's mansion was naturally caught off guard.

Knowing that this matter had already crossed the road before His Majesty, and even he nodded, he would soon issue a decree - Qu Yuancheng's eyes were about to fall!

"What's going on here?"

It all happened so suddenly! The position of the crown princess who can't be beaten by eight poles is deducted without warning?

Old Madam Hu was old and should be calm, but at this time, she was holding her chest and calming down, and the impact was too great.

She felt very unreal: "Isn't it...... Because of the injury on Wan Yu's head? ”

This wound fell in order to save the prince.

She also had a cold and a high fever overnight.

But having said that, the small wounds that have already scabbed over, why is this so?

Old Madam Hu immediately thought of something, and her expression changed slightly.

I was busy asking the big girl next to me to go to the Fenqing Garden and invite the eldest lady over.

Zhou thought about it, and couldn't even sit still at the moment, so he asked Mrs. Liu to dismiss the surrounding idlers.

Only a few tight-mouthed henchmen were left to serve in the house.

She frowned: "Could it be that the prince did something to our Wan Yu......"

They can only guess like this, otherwise they will not be able to say that they are responsible.
