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

Chapter 45: Otherwise, the princess will try it too?

Yu Qiqi's eyes moved, and after thinking for a while, she said: "Then I will treat her well in the future." She stared at him, her eyes flashed with light.

This sentence made Nangong Yan startled, he put his hands on his head, turned to look at her sideways, and asked, "Why?"

"Because you like her, I will treat the person you like better." On the contrary, if he hates the person, she will hate it too.

"Sleep."

Nangong Yan raised his eyebrows and patted her on the shoulder.

She murmured in response, slipped into his arms, and closed her eyes obediently.

When she woke up the next day, Zhao Niang smiled until her face burst into bloom, but A Jian still had a bitter face.

"Why do you dislike me staying with His Highness so much?" Yu Qiqi asked A Jian when Zhao Niang left her mouth.

"Before you lost your memory, you didn't like His Highness very much!" Seeing that she just asked the point, A Jian opened the chatter box, and listed Nangong Yan's crimes one by one, and told her.

"So it is."

However, after Yu Qiqi finished listening, her reaction was flat, not as excited as she was.

She lowered her head, drank the porridge in the bowl, and murmured, "Then I just like him from now on." As soon as she said this, A Jian almost fell to the ground, it seemed that her words were all in vain.

After Chu Peiyu asked the dark guard to release the news, his room was only quiet for a few hours. When the sky was slightly bright, it became turbulent again. He narrowed his eyes, sat on the round stool, and waited for the people outside to show up .

He was not in a hurry, he sipped the tea in the cup slowly, with a relaxed look, "General Chu is very leisurely, I have the best tea from Xichu, I wonder if you want to go and taste it?"

really.The other party couldn't bear it anymore and showed up on his own initiative.It's just that she moved very quickly, Chu Peiyu didn't see her moves clearly, she was already standing in front of him, covering her face with a white gauze.

"Since you're all here, why don't you dare to show your true colors?" Chu Peiyu slowly put down the cup in his hand, raised his head, and met her sharp eyes.

"Then let's see, does General Chu have the ability?" The woman sneered, she had four extra silver needles in her hand, and in a blink of an eye, all the silver needles were shot at him.

Chu Peiyu's eyes tightened, he reached out to grab the cup, and threw it towards the silver needle he had shot.The silver needles touched the cup and bounced back. The woman only waved her hand, and the four silver needles fell back into her hand safely and were caught between her fingers.

She smiled slightly, and the coldness in her eyes became heavier, "General Chu is very skilled."

"you flatter me."

Chu Peiyu was at a disadvantage in that move just now, the woman's kung fu was superior to his, but he couldn't admit that he was inferior to her.

"Where are people?"

With a general understanding of his skills in his heart, the woman's words became a little more arrogant.

"If you let Uncle Guo go, I will let your people go naturally." Chu Peiyu sat upright with a calm expression on his face.It's the demeanor you should have when negotiating conditions with her.

"A few maidservants for one uncle of the country, General Chu, I don't want to do this business?" How to put it, it's all her loss.

It's just that she hasn't figured out Pei Yu's reality yet, if those maidservants are not dead, it would be troublesome for him to ask something.

"Whether it's a loss or not, you know it in your heart."

Chu Peiyu didn't say a word, there are many mistakes and loopholes, and the bet at this moment is whose mind will change.

"As expected of the person next to Nangong Yan."

His sophistication made the woman slightly surprised, and she squeezed the silver needle in her hand even tighter.

"Don't wait, I won't hide here." There was still half a cup of tea in the cup, Chu Peiyu handed it to his mouth, and drank it slowly, looking calm and relaxed.

But the woman's face was obviously showing impatience, "If you don't hand over the person today, don't even think about walking out of this room!"

In an instant, there was a rush of footsteps from all around the room, surrounding the whole room, and killing intent appeared on the woman's face.

Chu Peiyu looked out, and when he saw the figure printed on the window paper, he raised his brows calmly, "I have already sent him back to Yanjing City overnight for His Highness to interrogate."

"Well, Uncle Guo will not survive!"

Enraged by him, the woman shot at him again with the silver needle in her hand. The speed at his forehead was a bit faster than before. Chu Peiyu didn't even have time to throw the cup this time, so she could only turn it back , raised his sleeves and waved away the silver needles that were shot at him.

He reached out to grab the sword on the table, but was kicked by the woman, causing the table to fall sideways, and his sword was farther away from him.

The woman pulled out the soft sword at her waist and cut towards his neck. Chu Peiyu hurriedly dodged to the side of the bed. The soft sword cut to the edge of the bed and immediately cut off a large piece of the bedpost without hurting him. The ruthlessness became stronger, and the long sword kept chasing him like a long snake entangled.

As a last resort, he blew a dark whistle, and in an instant, all the hidden guards hidden on the beams of the house fell down, blocking him and trembling his long sword, before he escaped.

The dark guard can't easily appear in front of people, there is no way, if he doesn't blow this dark whistle, his life will be lost, he took advantage of his strength to get away, picked up the sword that fell on the ground, and when the long sword came out, the people outside the room also rushed After entering, the room was suddenly in chaos.

The woman's target was Chu Peiyu. After a few hits, she got rid of the entanglement of the hidden guards. The soft sword kept chasing Chu Peiyu. It seemed that the more she fought, the more powerful she became. The speed was obviously much faster than before. Pei Yu couldn't dodge in time, the sharp blade almost cut his throat.

He has been the commander of the Imperial Forest Army for so many years, and today is really the first time that he let out several sighs of relief.The land of Western Chu is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Fortunately, the secret guards that Nangong Yan had cultivated for many years were not easy to fool. The subordinates who came with her were quickly wiped out by them, and they rushed to support Chu Peiyu, so he had a chance to breathe.

"If you want to leave Xichu alive, hand him over obediently, otherwise, you don't want to leave alive!" The woman swung the soft sword forcefully, using all her internal strength, and cut Chu Peiyu's arm. In an instant, There was bright red blood oozing from his arm.

He looked up, and the woman had disappeared from his room.

"Stop chasing!"

Chu Peiyu pressed the wound on his arm and called to stop the guard who wanted to chase outside.

"General Chu, hurry back to Yanjing!" the hidden guards said hastily.

This time, they really met their opponents. If they didn't act quickly, they might all be buried here.

"Hmm! I'll go back and report to Your Highness!" Chu Peiyu tore off a piece of clothes, tied up the wound on his arm, quickly treated the wound, changed his clothes, and hurried out of the inn.

The hidden guards stood behind him and disappeared among the crowd.

The gate of the city was already being guarded, but it hadn't been completely sealed, and the officers and soldiers were checking out the people in the city.

Chu Peiyu walked over with his head down, and took out the words he had prepared to fool the officers and soldiers guarding the city. However, he was not let go, and the leader of the city guard walked up to him and pointed at him. "You, you can't leave the city, grab it!"

Half an hour ago, he had already received the order from the King of Xichu County. Although the person in front of him was disguised, he still had some resemblance to the person in the portrait he gave him.

Chu Peiyu saw that a flaw had been exposed, so he could only pull out the sword hidden in the bag, and forced his way out of the city gate. The hidden guards who had been hidden in the crowd also appeared one after another.

On the city gate, a figure rushed down, it was the woman from just now.

Chu Peiyu looked up and saw the archers on the city gate.

He reconfirmed.This incident was done by the king of Xichu County.Otherwise, the gates of the city will be closed instead of just being guarded.

With the help of the hidden guards, Chu Peiyu was getting closer and closer to the city gate, but the woman in front of him was too difficult to deal with. Seeing that he was about to leave the city gate, "Shoot the arrow!" The woman gave an order, and the gate opened. The archers above shot arrows at the people below one after another, and in an instant, a rain of arrows fell on the city gate.

If this entanglement continues, let alone get out of the city gate, it would be good if they can save this life.

Suddenly, a fierce horse in the city was frightened and rushed towards the city gate. A hidden guard stepped forward and dragged the woman. Chu Peiyu seized the opportunity, grabbed the reins of the fierce horse, turned on the horse, and the woman held the soft sword in her hand. With a strong swing, the neck of the hidden guard was cut, and in an instant, blood spattered everywhere.

Her soft sword hit Chu Peiyu's back. Sensing the chill behind him, Chu Peiyu took out a smoke bomb and threw it at the woman forcefully. The woman used her sword to block it habitually.After splitting the smoke bomb, the smoke rose in all directions in an instant, Chu Peiyu rushed out of the encirclement on his fierce horse, and escaped from danger.

The hidden guards under the city gate protecting him who escaped were shot and killed by the rain of arrows shot down from the city gate, and no one survived.

The woman held the soft sword in her hand, looked at Chu Peiyu's fleeing figure, and yelled, her voice was terribly hoarse.

Behind him came a guard, "Master Lian, the king of the county told you to go see him."

"understood."

She responded coldly.

In the palace of the king of the county, the king of Xichu County was wearing a black dragon brocade robe. He was in the pavilion in the center of the lake with his back to her. He thought he had been waiting for her for a long time.

"Lian'er, you have never failed in anything. This time, don't tell me that you have met an opponent." He already knew the news that Chu Peiyu had escaped from West Chu City.

Wu Lian lowered her head, and replied in a hoarse voice, "It's the servant girl who is not good at things, please punish the county king!"

The king of Xichu County turned around, his narrow eyes fell on her, he walked over and tore off the white gauze from her face.Her eyes were jerky, and she wanted to dodge it, but he pinched her face and forced her to look at him, "It's not good for you? You've worked for me for so many years, and now you're telling me that you're not good for things?"

His hand slowly stroked the scar on her face, and there was a pain on her cheek.

"Chu Peiyu brought the hidden guards here, but the servant girl was negligent!" On the corners of her forehead, beads of sweat oozed out.

He closed his long and narrow eyes, seeming to be interested, "A secret guard? A secret guard who hides beside Nangong Yan, but has never been seen by anyone?"

"Well! Those hidden guards are very skilled. It's not something the handmaiden's subordinates can handle, let alone the troops on the city gate." Wu Lian tried her best not to frown at him.

The hidden guards around Nangong Yan have always been without a trace. In this way, her guilt seems to be a lot less, but his eyes still deepened, "These maidservants who were caught by Chu Peiyu Woolen cloth?"

"He said he had sent him back to Yanjing overnight, but the maid didn't believe him, he must be lying to us." Annoyance appeared on her face, and she felt deeply that she had been duped by Chu Peiyu.

At this moment, the King of Xichu County slowly let go, "You mean, he deliberately released the news. He wants to attract us to show up?"

"Exactly! If the person is still alive, he will follow him out of the city overnight, and he will not deliberately release the news!" Wu Lian's voice was hoarse again, full of hatred.

The King of West Chu County also had a bit of awe in his eyes. He didn't expect Chu Peiyu to be such a strategic person. He glanced at Wu Lian, "Do you know what to do?"

Wu Lian's body trembled, and she replied, without a moment's hesitation, she took out the dagger in her sleeve and scratched the scar on her face with it, adding another wound on her face.

Seeing the blood flowing down from her face, Duke Xichu's expression became a little better, "Go down and treat the wound, it's not a serious injury."

She fought against Chu Peiyu and those hidden guards, and it was not without a wound. She covered half of her face that was dripping with blood, and said, "Yes!"

On the ground, a few drops of blood dripped from her face. He stared at the blood on the ground, his long and narrow eyes getting colder.

Seeing this, the attendant beside him hastily stepped forward and knelt down, wiping the blood on the ground with a handkerchief.

In Yan Wang's mansion, after Yan Shiqing learned of his life experience, his mind became even more unsteady. Du Wanrong knew his concerns, but she didn't point it out, "This rose shortbread is your favorite, since you are back, let Eat more." She added food to his bowl.

When Yan Churan entered the palace, only their mother and son were left at the residence.

"Mother, you should eat more too." Soon, Yan Shiqing regained his expression, and added more food to her bowl. The mother and son ate deliciously, but each was hiding something on his mind.

"By the way, I don't know if Princess Seven is okay in the East Palace?" Du Wanrong changed the topic first, trying to divert his attention.

As soon as Yu Qiqi was mentioned, panic appeared in Yan Shiqing's eyes. When he rushed back, Yu Qiqi was still locked in the prison, and he didn't know what was going on now.

When he came back, he wanted to find out about his background, so that he could negotiate terms with Concubine Yi, and asked her to tell Emperor Yan Jing to let Yu Qiqi go.

But the situation at the moment made him embarrassed.But no matter what, he couldn't bear to watch Yu Qiqi suffer.The grievance between Concubine Yi and Nangong Yan was probably due to his biological mother, Concubine Xuanyu. She must have thought that Concubine Xuanyu set fire to the carriage that sent Yan Shiqing out of the palace.

The situation back then was nothing but Concubine Xuanyu.No one will fight her.

After accompanying Du Wanrong to finish the meal, Yan Shiqing stood up from the round stool and said goodbye to her, "Mother, I have to hurry back to Yanjing City. Now I am still a proton, so it is not appropriate to stay in Nanzhao for too long."

"But you said that you can stay for two days." Du Wanrong just glanced at him, unwilling to let him go.

"Next time I come back, I will definitely accompany my mother well!"

Yan Shiqing's eyes were also full of reluctance, but he had to rush back. After Qing Yu had packed up his things, he stood aside and waited for him.

"Then be careful on the road, and take care of your own safety when you get to Yanjing." Du Wanrong chased after him and kept telling him.

"Mother, the child has remembered everything!" Yan Shiqing got on the horse, stared at her again, and rode away with Qing Yu.

In Du Wanrong's eyes, the sense of loss was even stronger.

"Madam treats Shizi as if she was her own, and is deeply touching." Nurse Wang beside her supported her and sighed.

"My lord and I won't have any more children in this life. It's just such a child. Naturally, I have to take good care of it." She didn't look back until she couldn't see Yan Shiqing's figure, and let Wang Momo support her , went to the mansion.

Concubine Yi was imprisoned in the Liangxi Palace, and people brought tea and food over every day, but she didn't eat or make trouble, instead she leaned on the rattan chair all day long, holding the dry black civet cat in her arms.

Ever since that night when she knew that the carriage taking Yan Shiqing out of the palace caught fire, the black civet cat in her arms has always been her sustenance for so many years.

She married Yanjing, no one loves her, only this black civet cat treats her well.

Suddenly, the door of her bedroom was pushed open, and a bright light came in from the outside.She hadn't adapted to the strong light for a long time, so she slowly covered her face with her hands to cover the strong light in front of her eyes, and only after the light in front of her eyes was covered by a shadow did she slowly open her eyes.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" She pursed her lips with a cool smile.

The little eunuch next to Emperor Yan Jing moved a cushioned bench, and he sat down in front of her, "It's been so many days, as long as you ask for mercy, I will definitely soften my heart."

In the past few days, although Song Gaohuan had been dealt with, as for Concubine Yi, he had only imprisoned her in the Liangxi Palace and never tortured her.

"Begging for mercy? If I beg for mercy, wouldn't it be according to your wishes? I don't." Regarding Emperor Yan Jing, she felt resentful in her heart. She could lower her eyebrows and be pleasing to anyone, but she couldn't treat him.

Seeing that she was still making a face, Emperor Yan Jing was not in a hurry, and said slowly, "Do you know why I detained Yan Shiqing in Yanjing City?"

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Yi's palms were slightly cold, but her face was still cold, "You think your son is not pleasing to the eye, and you want to use him to deal with your son. He is just a star in your hand." Chess pieces." She said pretending to be nonchalant.

"You are very smart, you know what I'm thinking." Emperor Yan Jing didn't smile, and couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he just looked at her fixedly.

Concubine Yi was flustered by him, and her hands were already soaked with sweat, "I was also grateful at the beginning, you can keep him and have one more person to deal with Nangong Yan, what I wish for in my heart."

"Besides this, there is something else."

His voice gradually turned cold, breaking the last shackles in Concubine Yi's heart, her eyes flickered, "What do you want to do?"

"As long as you beg me for mercy, I will guarantee him nothing will happen." He has sat on the throne for so many years, and he hates people who disobey him the most in his life. Concubine Xuanyu is the best example.

Concubine Yi tried her best to hide the fear in her eyes, and smiled at him, "What does he have to do with me?"

"Oh? If that's the case, then he won't be able to get out of Yanjing City alive." Emperor Yan Jing stood up from his chair without a moment's delay, turned around and walked out.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I beg you, please let him go, let him go, okay?" Concubine Yi threw away the black civet cat in her arms, crawled to his feet, and tightly grasped his feet with her hands.

Emperor Yan Jing stopped in his tracks, his eyes were cold, and he didn't look down at her, "Are you really begging for mercy?"

"It's true! The concubine will treat you sincerely in the future!" Concubine Yi raised her head and looked at him, as if she was looking at a god far away and untouchable, her voice hoarse.

"Come here, take Concubine Yi down to wash up." He ordered.

Concubine Yi had tears in her eyes, she slowly let go of her hands holding his feet, Emperor Yan Jing stepped up and walked outside.

The black civet cat was taken down by the palace people and thrown away.

There was no news from Shen Feihong, Nangong Yan was always depressed. After returning from the court, he stayed in Chenghe Palace to deal with the inner court affairs. When Chu Peiyu came back, he didn't go anywhere.

Standing outside the building of Chenghe Hall, he looked down and saw Yu Qiqi walking towards his inner hall with a plate of fruit, and A Jian was chasing after her, reluctantly.

He closed his eyes and walked back from outside the building, just in time to meet her walking towards him with fruit, "Your Highness, this is a new cherry in the palace, you can try it."

She ate a few of them just now, but they were sweet. Thinking that Nangong Yan probably hadn't eaten them yet, she brought the plate that Zhaoniang washed for her and gave him a taste.

Nangong Yan lowered his head and looked at the plate of red cherries in front of him, which were still stained with drops of water and were crystal clear. He reached out, picked up one, and put it in his mouth.

"How is it? Isn't it sweet?"

Yu Qiqi was waiting for his reply.

He chewed, and his deep eyes fell on her. In the June weather, she was wearing a foggy purple tulle dress, her hair was tied into a bun, and the jade beads on her head were still swaying gently. Maybe she It was because he walked too quickly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on the tip of his small nose.

After swallowing, Nangong Yan nodded, a smile appeared on her thin lips, "It's very sweet, you can eat it." However, Yu Qiqi still saw reluctance in his eyes.

"Princess, since His Highness doesn't like to eat, you can eat." A Jian took the plate from her and presented it to Yu Qiqi.

These cherries are rare in Nanzhao, even she likes to eat them.

Yu Qiqi ignored Ah Jian, her eyes were all on Nangong Yan, she thought about it, and then said: "Then next time, next time, I will see if there is any fruit that tastes very sweet, and I will bring it here for you to taste."

"Um."

Nangong Yan only nodded his head, but didn't show much interest on his face.

Seeing that he was not interested, Yu Qiqi had no choice but to go down the building first, and when she came out, she met Lu Yin, who was also holding a plate of things in her hand, which were walnut cakes made by herself.

A pair of watery eyes fell on her plate of cherries, Lu Yin hooked the corners of her eyes, and smiled, "Your Highness doesn't like to eat too sweet things, it's been like this since I was a child, doesn't the princess know?"

There was sarcasm in that smile.

"Yes, is it?"

Yu Qiqi lowered her head at a loss, with a bit of embarrassment on her face.No wonder, Nangong Yan didn't seem very interested just now.

"And His Highness's favorite food is the meal made by our empress." Linglong added as she stood behind Luyin and raised her eyebrows.

"Then hurry up and take it in, His Highness will definitely like it." Yu Qiqi urged her.

"Otherwise, the princess will also try it?" Lu Yin smiled and handed it to her.

"is it okay?"

Yu Qiqi bit her lip and asked cautiously.Nangong Yan likes to eat, and she also wants to know what it tastes like.
