Concubine, don't flirt: His Royal Highness is hiding something

At that time, he took the imperial decree and walked up to Emperor Yan Jing, fell to the ground, his soft and fair facial features were full of anger, and his body was straight, "Wanniang is my sweetheart, and my son is the most She is the only concubine you want to marry, Father, you know this in your heart, why did you issue this imperial decree?!"

There was still unruliness in his eyes, "Nanzhao, a small barbarian country, has been captured by us, why do you want me to marry that Nanzhao princess?! She must be a barbarian too!"

In his heart, he was very against Yan Jingdi's decision, and in his words, there was also contempt for Yu Qiqi.

Emperor Yan Jing stood in front of him, using his own identity to keep him low, "She is the only princess in Nanzhao, if you marry her, you can control the whole Nanzhao in your hands, and there is no need to cause bloodshed The scene of flowing into a river, the people of Yanjing can also suffer less, and your image in the hearts of the people in the future will only be beneficial and have no disadvantages."

It was just such rhetoric that made him marry Yu Qiqi.On the second day after he received the imperial decree, he got the news that Lu Yin had left the East Palace in anger.

He ran to her Changhuan Palace, there was no one there, only saw a letter left by her, with a line written on it, "The concubine is gone, Your Highness needs to take care, there is no need to look for the whereabouts of the concubine. "

"Why can't you even look down on someone?! Waste!" On that day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost his temper in the East Palace. Came out of the torture chamber.

For a whole year, Nangong Yan sent people to look for Lu Yin's whereabouts.Every day, he lives in torment. The things in the Changhuan Palace have not been touched by anyone. He just cleaned them up and waited for her to come back.

Even if Yu Qiqi married into the East Palace, he never protected her at all, until she returned to the East Palace, she saw all this, didn't she?

Looking at the flickering light in front of him, he smiled, very bitterly.

After Luyin returned to Changhuan Hall, she sat very anxiously.With a heart full of sadness, she went to the Liangxi Palace, "Mother, why did you let Yu Qiqi into the palace?"

"Are you questioning me? Who gave you the courage?" Concubine Yi stared at her, her words were full of majesty, not allowing her to resist at all.

"The maidservant just thinks that since Yu Qiqi has been infected by the witchcraft and drank Manzhisan, the rift in her heart towards His Highness will always exist, so there is no need to ask her to come into the palace to torture her." She bit Biting his lip, he dared to say these words.

"Crack!", the next moment.Concubine Yi's slap had already landed on her face, "Did you forget who saved you from those thieves when you escaped from the East Palace in anger?!" Concubine Yi reminded her sharply.

Luyin's body trembled, and she immediately lowered her head, "I have not forgotten that it was the concubine Yi who rescued the slave! If it wasn't for the empress, the slave's body would have been defiled by those thieves long ago. The empress's great kindness, The servant has no teeth to forget!"

Hearing this, Concubine Yi's face softened a little, "Since you still remember, you should remember it well!" She raised her eyebrows, "Could it be that you can't bear to see Yu Qiqi being tortured?" ?” Saying this, even Concubine Yi herself thought it was ridiculous.

She herself has hurt Yu Qiqi so many times, she should be hiding in the East Palace and laughing, but she came here to question her.

Lu Yin immediately shook her head, "I don't want to bear it!" Her watery eyes showed ruthlessness, "She'd better never go back to the East Palace!"

In this way, even if Nangong Yan cares about her any more, it won't help.

"Okay, let's go back." Concubine Yi naturally saw what she was thinking, but she had concealed so many things from Nangong Yan, and it was wishful thinking that she wanted Nangong Yan to treat her like before!

But it's still useful to keep her, so why bother to expose these things, wouldn't that be asking for trouble.

"Slave and maid leave." Lu Yin frowned, and hurriedly left her Liangxi Palace.

Every day after that, Yu Qiqi fell into a drowsy sleep under the scent, her mind was never clear, and she was always lying on the soft couch in Liangxi Palace.

Seven days later, the Empress Dowager heard the news from nowhere and insisted that Emperor Yan Jing take her to the Liangxi Palace to see Yu Qiqi, "Why Qiqi came into the palace, you didn't even know me, Does it mean that my old lady doesn't care about me when she's getting old?"

"Old Ancestor, what are you talking about?" Concubine Yi walked up to meet her with a smile on her face.

"What about Qiqi? Why doesn't she come out to see me?" Displeasure appeared on her face, and she stomped her feet anxiously.

She blamed Concubine Yi for knowing that she loved Yu Qiqi, but she didn't even say a word to her after being brought into the palace for so many days.

"Prince Concubine, she was too tired from playing yesterday, and she is still sound asleep at the moment." Concubine Yi stood in front of her and replied with a smile on her face.

"Hmph! This stinky girl only knows to play by herself every day, and doesn't want to visit me." It's been a long time since I saw Yu Qiqi, and she really misses her.

The Empress Dowager acted like a child, accusing Yu Qiqi of something wrong.

"Old Ancestor, if you are really thinking about it, I will take the Crown Princess to your warm pavilion tomorrow to greet you."

To this old woman who was already half buried in the ground, what Concubine Yi said on the surface was very decent.

"That's right, Empress Dowager, she is in the palace at all costs. The Liangxi Palace is not far from your Nuan Pavilion. Let Concubine Yi take her there to see you tomorrow."

Emperor Yan Jing supported her and tried to persuade her.

"Hmph, you too, did you deliberately hide it from me?!" Saying this, the Empress Dowager was about to break into the inner hall of Concubine Yi, but was stopped by Concubine Yi, "Old Ancestor, that child is still sleeping , if you go in now, you will disturb her."

She was still smiling, but the words she said were already somewhat unkind.

"Since Qiqi is still sleeping, the empress mother should not bother her, otherwise she will blame the empress mother when she wakes up. You know the child's temperament." In Emperor Yan Jing's words, he was protecting Concubine Yi .

"You two, are you hiding something from me?" Suddenly, the empress dowager's originally kind tone became sharp.

"No, no..."

Concubine Yi put her hands behind her back and made a gesture to the maid behind her, the maid understood and sneaked into the inner hall quietly.

Outside, they were still arguing.

The Empress Dowager refused to give in, and insisted on taking a look at Shangyu Qiqi before she would leave.

When Emperor Yan Jing and Concubine Yi were in a panic, the maid helped Yu Qiqi out of the inner hall, "Grandma..." Yu Qiqi held her hand, her palm was cold.

"My good boy, why are your hands so cold?" The Empress Dowager felt very distressed.Hastily warmed her hands with those wrinkled hands.

"Grandma, don't worry, Madam Yi has treated me very well, I have a great time here." Yu Qiqi said to her with a smile, her eyes were clear and pleasant.

"You really didn't..." The Empress Dowager wanted to ask her, you really didn't lie to Grandma, but out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Concubine Yi and Emperor Yan Jing staring at her, the Empress Dowager coughed, "Did you not?" Conscience, why don't you take a look at me when you enter the palace?"

After speaking, he pressed her forehead with his hand.

Yu Qiqi felt a faint stabbing pain on her forehead, her eyes flickered for a moment, but when she saw Concubine Yi's eyes, the sobriety that had just flashed in them disappeared completely. "I had so much fun here that I forgot, tomorrow I will go to see you with Concubine Yi."

"That's fine, I'll go back to the old lady first." There was a hint of grievance in the words of the Empress Dowager, and she staggered back to her warm pavilion.

Emperor Yan Jing followed her, and Concubine Yi's sense of vigilance slowly relaxed.

"You are really obedient." She stretched out her hand and stroked Yu Qiqi's head.

Yu Qiqi nodded at her, "It's all taught by Concubine Yi."

"The more you are obedient, the less you will suffer." When she stretched out her hand and stroked Yu Qiqi's chin, she clearly felt her body tremble, and the scar on her chin was still looming.

The Empress Dowager returned to the Nuan Pavilion and clapped her hands after Emperor Yan Jing walked away. Nangong Yan immediately walked out from behind the bead curtain, "Grandma, have you seen her?"

In the past few days, he had been suffering a lot in the East Palace. Whenever he thought about what Yu Qiqi had suffered in the Liangxi Palace, he couldn't sleep well.

The Empress Dowager shook her head, "Qiqi looks pretty good, she also said..." Her memory is not very good, her voice became weaker, and halfway through the sentence, she still needs to recall Yu Qiqi's time in Liangxi What the palace said. "By the way, she also said that she had a good time in Liangxi Palace, and she will come to see me with Concubine Yi tomorrow. Let me see, she is having a good time in Liangxi Palace."

Speaking of the latter, her words were a little sour.

"She really said that?" Nangong Yan held her hand and looked at her intently.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes, afraid that she might have said something wrong, or missed something. After thinking about it, she didn't say a single word wrong, and she didn't say anything wrong. She nodded immediately, like a Muslim teacher talking children.

Nangong Yan raised her eyebrows, how could she let Yu Qiqi go so easily?

However, after hearing what the Empress Dowager said, he felt a little relieved, her life was not in danger after all, "Grandma, please rest well, grandson will come to see you tomorrow."

He had already made up his mind to come to her warm pavilion tomorrow, and when Yu Qiqi came over tomorrow, he would be able to see if she was really safe and sound.

"You hozen, don't think I don't know what you're up to? Why are you here to see me, an old lady, you want to see your princess!"

The Empress Dowager teased him, but there was love in her eyes.But very rich.

"Grandma's eyes are really sharp." Nangong Yan smiled embarrassedly, he would only show such a shy smile in front of her.

The Empress Dowager let out a long hum, and also tapped his forehead with her hand.

The hearty laughter of the grandfather and grandson spread from the warm pavilion.

Song Gaohuan returned to Yipin's Liangxi Palace, his treacherous and cunning eyes were full of smiles, "Your Majesty is really good at predicting things, Nangong Yanzhen is in that old lady's warm pavilion,"

"Hmph, I have been in the palace for so many years, when did she come to my bedroom, and now she came here for no reason, besides Nangong Yan, who else will give her the news?!"

Concubine Yi didn't need to think too much about this accident, she also knew that it was Nangong Yan who caused it.

"That empress has to be careful, he will go to that old woman's Nuan Pavilion tomorrow." Song Gaohuan said while holding her shoulders while pinching his throat.

"That's just right, let's see if she has spent these days in Liangxi Palace for nothing." Concubine Yi smiled, looking at Yu Qiqi who was walking towards her.

Yu Qiqi walked up to her and brought her a cup of tea, "Madam, the sweet-scented osmanthus tea you want is ready."

"good."

She raised her charming eyes and took the tea she handed over.

Song Gaohuan also glanced at her, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

The second day Yan Shiqing came out of the East Palace.So I sent a letter to Yan Churan, but seven days have passed, and I still haven't received his reply.

Qing Yu comforted him, "Your Majesty, I've thought about it a lot, my lord treats you so well, I will definitely not hide anything from you."

"But if my father doesn't reply, I feel uneasy." There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but at this moment, no matter how sharp his acuity was, it was useless.

"By the way, how is sister Qi in the East Palace?" He has been thinking about Concubine Yi since he came back, and has no time to pay attention to Yu Qiqi.

"Princess Seven, she has entered the palace. I heard that it was the concubine Yi who called her in. But the strange thing is that when Song Gaohuan went to the East Palace to fetch someone, Nangong Yan stopped him. I don't know why."

Qing Yu reported to him the news that he had inquired in the past few days.

Yan Shiqing frowned, "What? When did she enter the palace?"

Qing Yu raised his head, "That's the day the son comes back."

"In this way, Seventh Sister may be tired because of me." Yan Shiqing's eyes dimmed, and a sense of uneasiness appeared in his heart.

He couldn't figure out who Concubine Yi was, but felt that it was no coincidence that Yu Qiqi was called into the palace by her at that time.

"Then, do you want to enter the palace?"

Qing Yu saw the worry on his face and asked him.

"Tomorrow we will go into the palace to see the seventh younger sister, and take a look at this concubine Yi by the way." Yan Shiqing couldn't wait, wanting to see the concubine Yi who had never met before but saved him.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now, my servant." Qing Yu immediately agreed.

After Chu Peiyu went to find Shen Feihong, he immediately went to Xichu, all for his eldest nephew, otherwise he would never have gone to Xichu.

Concubine Yi is the princess of Western Chu. I heard that she was very famous when she was in Western Chu. No one has ever seen her dance, not even Emperor Yan Jing.

Shen Feihong stayed in Xichu for several days, and finally found some news. When he heard the news, his round eyes could not help but stare, although they were all old sesame seeds and rotten millet. Old things, but if Emperor Yan Jing heard about these things, he might be in trouble.

With these news, he was excitedly going back to Yanjing City, when he suddenly met an assassin on the way and stopped him in the bushes.

Sitting on the horseback, Shen Feihong glanced at the assassins in front of him with sharp eyes. Although there were only about eight of them, the murderous aura on them still made him shudder.

"Want to stop me? It's not that easy!"

Once this sentence is finished.He immediately pulled out a long whip from his waist, and swung it towards them. The eight assassins dispersed in an instant, and all raised their swords to stab him. In the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by them.

He swung his long sword a few times before he was able to get away from their sword formation for a while, but their sword formation was so dense that no flaw could be seen, Shen Feihong only felt that there were countless swords that were always on him. It circled back and forth in front of his eyes, making his eyes a little dazzled.

Shen Feihong had never seen such an orderly, tight and dense sword array in his life. He began to realize that the person who arranged this sword array was not simple, and he didn't want him to go back alive with the news.

Or maybe, since he entered Xichuli, he has been targeted by these people. He doesn't know, and he can't distract himself from thinking too much.

I don't know how long it took, the sun shining on the top of the head gradually sank to the west, and a lot of sweat had already flowed from Shen Feihong's face and body, dripping into the dust on the ground.

Those assassins seemed tireless, and their swordsmanship was not lost at all. His eyes were dazzled by the sword light in front of him, and he accidentally closed them. In an instant, their swords had landed on his neck.

Suddenly, Shen Feihong was hit by a heavy object on the back, and he fell down.

"Bring back!"

The woman in black and with a hood behind said coldly.

"Yes!" Those few understood at this moment, and immediately carried Shen Feihong away from the bushes. The horse he rode over had already run away alone.

On the second day, after Nangong Yan went to greet Emperor Yan Jing in his bedroom, he went to see her in the Empress Dowager's warm pavilion.

When you get there.Concubine Yi had already brought Yu Qiqi there, and the three of them were sitting in the warm pavilion, talking and laughing.From a distance, he could see Yu Qiqi's curved eyebrows.

"Grandma."

Nangong Yan walked in and greeted the Empress Dowager.

"Yan'er is here, come here quickly, you haven't seen each other for several days, you must be thinking about each other very much." The Empress Dowager waved to him.

Yu Qiqi looked at the person in front of her with a hint of unfamiliarity and displeasure in her eyes, but in the blink of an eye, she returned to her previous expression, "I never thought I would meet His Highness here." Listen to her Speaking, it's no different from before.

"How are you doing in Liangxi Palace these few days?" Nangong Yan couldn't wait to ask when he saw her.

Yu Qiqi blinked her eyes, as if she didn't understand why he was worried about her, but then she replied, "It's all right, Mrs. Concubine Yi treated me very well and gave me a lot of things to play with. She has never seen it in the East Palace, she said that envoys from various countries paid tribute to the palace in previous years, so that's why I can't see it in the East Palace."

"yes?"

After finishing speaking, Nangong Yan turned her head and glanced at Concubine Yi. She still greeted her with a smiling face, which was really hard to see.

"Yes, please sit down, Your Highness."

Yu Qiqi pulled him, let him sit on the bench, and poured him a cup of tea. When had he seen such a low-browed and pleasing look in the East Palace.

When he picked up the cup of tea she poured, the hand holding the cup paused.

"Your Highness, are you relieved now?" Concubine Yi asked him softly.

A puff of tea slipped down his throat, Nangong Yan still felt very strange, it was different from what he had imagined, Yu Qiqi seemed to be staying with her really well.

"Seeing that His Highness's Crown Princess is doing well with Concubine Yi, I feel relieved." He had no choice but to follow her words for the time being.

"Qiqi is very much in my favor. If she hadn't married His Highness, I would really want to keep her by my side." Concubine Yi looked into Yu Qiqi's eyes, showing appreciation.

"That empress is really a step late, she has already married my Highness." Nangong Yan's eyes showed a hint of provocation.

"Your Highness really loves Qiqi." Concubine Yi laughed twice, and then sought the consent of the Empress Dowager, "Old Ancestor, don't you think so?"

"Seeing that you really cherish Qiqi, my heart also drops." The Empress Dowager finished speaking with satisfaction, and laughed a few times full of joy.

"The empress dowager also treated you very well, you should thank her." When Yu Qiqi returned to Concubine Yi, she took her hand and patted it, the smile in her eyes hid a little hostility.

Yu Qiqi glanced at her suddenly, and then agreed, "Yes, ma'am." She nodded in agreement, and then walked towards the empress dowager, "Grandma's kindness to her daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law will definitely remember it." Heart."

She originally said the first words with a smile, but when it came to the latter, Nangong Yan felt that something was wrong. In an instant, Yu Qiqi took out a dagger from her cuff and stabbed the Empress Dowager in the heart, sharply Several streaks of blood splattered on Yu Qiqi's face and eyes.

"Grandma!"

Almost at the same moment, Nangong Yan immediately ran towards the Empress Dowager, but it was too late, her old eyes were closed, and she had already fallen into a pool of blood.

"Good boy, you, what's wrong with you?..." She breathed weakly, reached out her hand to Yu Qiqi, and stroked her small face.

Looking at her kind eyes, Yu Qiqi froze, then suddenly lowered her head, and saw blood on her heart and on her own hands.

"No, I didn't do it, I didn't do it..." In an instant, tears welled up in her eyes, and she shook her head vigorously while shaking her body.

"Get out of the way! Get out!" Nangong Yan pushed her away, held the Empress Dowager in her arms, and called her tremblingly, "Grandma! Grandma..."

"Grandmother?..." Yu Qiqi sat on the ground, raised her hand, and called out this name, but her eyes were in a daze.

She stared at the empress dowager who was lying in a pool of blood for a long time before crawling towards her and holding her hand, "Grandma, grandma, what's wrong with you?..."

There were countless fears in her heart, seeing the blood in her hands, Yu Qiqi seemed to vaguely recall why she fell into this pool of blood.

"Good boy, grandma believes in you, you and Yan'er must have a good time..." The empress dowager also held her hand, comforting her softly.

Even at this last moment, she still believed that she was innocent.
