Chapter 123: Good News
The weather is getting hotter, but Kyoto in the country of Ningyue is silent again, and the dust is idle, so he is locked in the house alone and meditates and vomits, supplemented by the nine-bead chain, the skill is a thousand miles a day, and it has the potential to approach the previous life.
"Princess, the slave maid cooked black chicken soup, and the princess tasted it. Huai Jin came in with a tray in his hand and said to Qingchen.
Qingchen watched Huai Jin open the lid of the bowl, revealing the fragrant black chicken soup inside, he couldn't help frowning, looked at Huai Jin with some puzzlement, and asked:
"Huai Jin, something is wrong with you these days. β
"Princess, where are you talking about this, isn't the slave still the same as before?" Huai Jin was shocked, looking at Qingchen, not knowing what she meant.
"The day before yesterday was red date white fungus soup, yesterday it was bird's nest wolfberry, and today it was black chicken soup, do you want me to make up a big fat man?" Qingchen asked.
"The princess misunderstood, this is all what the prince meant. The prince said that the princess was weak and her complexion was not good, so he asked the slave to cook more tonic soup for the princess to make up for her body. When Huai Jin heard this, he smiled and spoke again, "The princess has a heart, the princess must not live up to it." β
"Sister Huaijin, don't say it, the princess's complexion has indeed improved a lot in the past few days, and even her face is a lot ruddy. Jin Yan said on the side, "The princess has always been weak, I used to say that I wanted to make up for the princess, but the princess refused, now it's okay, what the princess means, why does the princess have to give face?"
"Well, in that case, then I'll reluctantly drink this bowl of soup. Qingchen knew that these two girls were making fun of themselves, and they didn't get angry and drank with the bowl.
Jin Yan and Huai Jin looked at Qingchen, couldn't help but look at each other and smile, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed a lot, and they felt very comforted in their hearts, such Qingchen can be called a flesh-and-blood person, and only then can she be naΓ―ve and naughty at her age, compared to the cold, calculating and bloodthirsty princess, such a princess obviously makes them feel more relieved.
"Princess, there is news in the palace. But at this moment, Ji Yu came in from outside, still holding a small note in his hand.
Qingchen put half of the black chicken soup in Jin Yan's hand, Jin Yan took the bowl in his heart, and then retreated.
"Is it news from Yang Zhaoyi?" Qingchen raised his head, looked at Zhan Yu, and asked.
"Yes, it's the news from the Bright Moon Protector, Yang Zhaoyi is pregnant, Concubine An, as the lord of Yijing Palace, naturally has to worry about it, and the Bright Moon Protector is by Concubine An's side, so she can naturally get more news. Holding Yu handed the note in his hand to Qingchen and said so.
Qingchen looked at the news from Mingyue and chuckled: "Okay, Yang Shu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, knowing that Xiao Ling cares about this child, he made such a big move, and called Xiao Ling from the Purple Smoke Palace to the Tilting Palace every night, and if it goes on like this, even if the sisterhood is good, it will be tossed away by her." β
Yang Zhaoyi was originally held by Concubine Shu, but she didn't expect to cross the river and tear down the bridge after being favored, without the backstage of Concubine Shu, the child in Yang Zhaoyi's belly may not be able to be saved. Huai Jin said.
"Let them fight, none of this has anything to do with me, the harder they fight, the better it will be for me. Qingchen said, and asked again, "By the way, what has the prince been busy with these days? Why don't you see anyone every day?"
"Princess, hasn't you seen you for a day?"
"Xiao Nizi, what are you talking nonsense? You are the one who doesn't see you for a day as if you were every three autumns, right? The night has not come for several days, and you have lost a lot of personal bickering, is it a lot less fun?" Qingchen looked at Zhan Yu, and turned against the army.
As soon as Zhan Yu heard this, Teng's face turned red, and then he looked at Qingchen and stammered, "Wang...... How did the princess see it?"
"You behaved so obviously, and asked the princess how she saw it? In the past, you deliberately quarreled with him in the Star Picking Tower, just to get his attention, I'm afraid only the Night Hall Master himself didn't know. Huai Jin looked at her sister, who was obviously a little spring-hearted, and smiled.
When Zhan Yu heard this, his eyes widened, he looked at Huai Jin, and then at Qingchen, and suddenly stomped his feet, and said angrily: "The master of the night hall is a wood, everyone knows it, but he doesn't know it yet." β
"Miss Shuyu, I didn't offend you this time, why did I become wood again? In the past, you and I had to quarrel in the Star Picking Tower, but now in front of the princess, don't slander me. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the room, it was Nightfall.
Qingchen laughed out loud, looked at Zhan Yu, who was flushed and obviously embarrassed, and said, "Zhan Yu, you go to see if the prince has come back." β
Knowing that Qingchen was relieving his embarrassment, he nodded, glared at Ye Di angrily, and took the order.
"Princess, what's wrong with Ji Yu? Why have you become more and more angry when you see me recently?" Ye Di asked with some confusion as he looked at the back of Ji Yu leaving.
"If the Night Hall Master stopped bullying her, she would be happy. Huai Jin said.
"How could I bully her? She was bullying me all the time. Nightshade seemed to muttered a little puzzled, and then looked at Qingchen and spoke again, "Princess, my subordinates have something important to report." β
"What's the matter?" Qingchen asked.
"The battle on the southern border has come to an end, and the regent of southern Xinjiang is hard to disobey the emperor's order, leading the troops to fight against Gu Yanzhao and losing in the hands of Gu Yanzhao. "Nightshade said.
"This matter is already expected by me, you came here on purpose, surely it is not just to tell me this good news, is there any other news?" Qingchen asked.
"The princess is wise, the regent of Southern Xinjiang and Gu Yanzhao had a secret talk in Wangwuling before the war, and reached an agreement, which is the content of the agreement. Nightshade took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Qingchen.
Qingchen opened it and glanced at it casually, then handed it back to Ye Di, and then spoke: "How do you say Xiao Ling would feel if he saw this thing?"
"What does the princess mean by handing this thing over to the emperor?" asked Nightfall.
"The Shen family has fallen, although the harem seems to be slightly superior to Shen Bihuan, but now in the court, except for a few ministers who were personally appointed by the first emperor, the Gu family is the greatest, what Gu Yanzhao has in mind, isn't it clear?" Qingchen said, "Nie Ruyi is unwilling to let her daughter die in a foreign country, thinking that it is Nie Xinyao's hand, wanting to seize the throne in southern Xinjiang and take revenge on her sister; β
"If the emperor knew Gu Yanzhao's thoughts, he would definitely know that this victory was a deal between Gu Yanzhao and the regent of Southern Xinjiang, and he would be wary of Gu Yanzhao. Nightshade nodded.
"No emperor in the world will allow his courtiers to hide their selfish intentions, with this thing, the greater Gu Yanzhao's credit, the faster his death will come. Huai Jin also suddenly understood, and nodded in agreement.
"That's right, Gu Yanzhao used his military exploits to pave the way for Gu Yanru in the harem, but I didn't know that this war was originally arranged by me with great effort, even if Nie Ruyi and Gu Yanzhao did not reach an agreement, when Gu Yanzhao's military achievements were flourishing, and when Xiao Ling had nothing to reward, he could only kill. Qingchen said.
"So to deal with the Shen family and the Gu family, the princess took two different ways, the Shen family was to find the fault and break each one, and to the Gu family, it was to let them gain face in front of the emperor. Huai Jin said with understanding.
"I did this only because Xiao Ling originally wanted to destroy the Shen family, so I didn't need to put too much effort into it, as long as the Shen family exposed its mistakes, Xiao Ling could bite it tightly. But the Gu family is different, there are few generals available in Ning Yue Country, Gu Yanzhao is a leader, Xiao Ling wants to protect the country, I have to rely on him, what I need to do is to make Xiao Ling no longer feel at ease to rely on him. Qingchen explained, it was so transparent to see everyone's minds.
"The subordinates understand that this agreement will definitely be sent to Longchen Palace, the emperor's desk. Nightshade nodded and turned to leave.
"Princess, the slave maid is a little puzzled, and I don't know whether to ask or not. When Huai Jin saw Ye Di leaving, he said to Qingchen, and the expression on his face stopped.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, is there anything you can't say in front of me?" Qingchen said with a smile.
"The agreement between the regent of Southern Xinjiang and General Gu was not sent back by the Lord of the Wind Mansion?" The slave maid heard that he went to Nanjun some time ago, ......" Huai Jin tried to weigh his words and said cautiously.
When Qingchen heard this, he was about to answer, but when he looked up, he saw the flash in Huai Jin's eyes, and he was suddenly shocked in his heart, looking at Huai Jin, but he didn't speak again.
Huai Jin was looked at by Qingchen, and her heart was a little worried, Qingchen's expression was too calm, so calm that she couldn't guess what Qingchen was thinking at the moment, let alone whether Qingchen had seen through her thoughts.
After a while, Qingchen suddenly smiled, and then spoke: "You can come and go freely in Gu Yanzhao's army, and you can also find out about the agreement between Gu Yanzhao and the regent of Southern Xinjiang, apart from Brother Feng, how many others can do it?"
"So...... After avenging the Ye family, what are the princess's plans......? After all, it is the royal family of Ning Yue. Huai Jin asked tentatively.
"Huai Jin, the word revenge is too far away from me, as long as Xiao Ling is still sitting on that throne, I can't be regarded as having finished revenge. Qingchen smiled, looking a little helpless, "In the past, I was torn between the court and the rivers and lakes, ignoring your thoughts, but don't worry, it won't be in the future." Brother Feng's side, what he needs is to be accompanied by a smart but quiet and calm woman like you, you will accompany him to smile proudly, but I can only bring him endless earthly constraints. β
"Princess......" Huai Jin didn't expect that in just a short moment, Mu Qingchen had already understood her thoughts, and such straightforward words made her a little at a loss.
Qingchen didn't answer, just smiled, her heart was full of emotion, once upon a time, the people around her found her sweetheart, but she didn't even notice it before.
