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

That domineering look is a bit like the picture Nangong Yan drew in her mind before she got married.

He reached out, held her arms, pursed his lips, and cooperated with her, "Okay, I won't laugh."

"That's right." Yu Qiqi stretched out her hand, scratched the tip of his nose, with the possessiveness that the master should have, lowered her head again, and took him as her own.

But within a few strokes, Nangong Yan turned the offensive into an aggressive one. Her technique was too unfamiliar.

It wasn't until the next morning that Yu Qiqi realized that she was lying in Nangong Yan's arms. She was startled, her hand was still on his body, "When did Your Highness come to my bed?"

she exclaimed.

This sound woke Nangong Yan up, and he asked lightly, "Are you awake?"

"Could it be that I did something that exceeded the etiquette last night?" Yu Qiqi's eyebrows twitched, and there was a hint of uneasiness in her heart.

"Now you know what you did wrong?"

Seeing her like this, she probably wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.

However, she was lowering her head, as if she was thinking about something carefully, and soon she raised her head again, "You are my husband, and it is only natural to have sex in the house, so why do you say that you did something wrong? "

She said these words without blushing and without heartbeat, and completely lost the shy feeling just now, which surprised Nangong Yan.

Teased by her, Nangong Yan smiled helplessly. "Don't drink so much in the future, you are not a person who can drink."

Immediately, got out of bed.

As soon as these words came out, Yu Qiqi moved her body immediately, stretched out her hand to grab his wrist, and pulled it back, "Are you caring about me?"

He thought for a while, seemed right, nodded, "Well, yes."

She turned her agile eyes and stood up.Approaching him, "I heard that the crabapple flowers in the back garden are blooming. When you come back from morning worship, can you go for a walk with me?"

There was a warmth on the wrist.

Nangong Yan raised his eyebrows and returned to her, "If I come back early, I will accompany you."

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back." Yu Qiqi smiled and let go of her hand.

Seeing Nangong Yan walking out, A Jian, who had been leaning against the pavilion all night, hurriedly jumped down and ran towards Yu Qiqi's bedroom.Before seeing anyone, he reprimanded: "Princess, how can you keep him?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she made a sound, she was caught by Zhao Niang, who coughed softly, "What are you talking about? It's only natural for His Highness to stay overnight, but you, as the personal servant of the Crown Princess, how could you run away without permission?" Went out and bought her wine and got drunk!"

In Zhaoniang's hands, she was still holding the two empty jugs.

A Jian knew she was wronged, so naturally she didn't dare to talk back, she could only stand aside muttering, and waited until Zhaoniang was satisfied with the reprimand, then she dared to move away and move closer to Yu Qiqi.

"Whatever you caused, take it away yourself!" After tidying up the jug on the table, Zhao Niang threw it into A Jian's hand, and A Jian curled her lips and stretched out her hand to take it.

The person she fears the most in the Eastern Palace, besides Yu Qiqi, is Zhaoniang, who always reprimands her like an aunt in charge, reminding her of her mother in the Nanzhao Palace, When she taught her a lesson, she was carved out of the same mold as Zhaoniang.

"Okay, if you keep on cursing, A Jian should feel wronged." Yu Qiqi persuaded with a smile, she had never seen A Jian slumped like this before, and she found it a novelty.

"The princess said so."

Zhaoniang immediately changed her appearance and greeted Yu Qiqi with a smile.Before leaving the palace gate, A Jian turned her head and made a big grimace at Zhao Niang.

"I'm going to go to the back garden with your highness to enjoy the flowers in a while, you can help me choose, which one should I wear to go out?" The maids brought up a few sets of clothes, but Zhao Niang is better at this kind of thing.

Zhao Niang agreed with a smile, leaned over to pick a circle, pointed to a fine silk gold-stitched yarn skirt and said: "The weather outside is sultry and hot, so the princess should wear this one."

The silk thread on the top is slightly shining, which is really eye-catching.

Yu Qiqi nodded.

After she changed her clothes and Zhao Niang combed her hair, Lu Yin came in from the outside, and the maid next to her brought a cup of tea.

Walking in front of Yu Qiqi, she took the teacup from the hand of the maid and presented it, "What happened yesterday is all my fault, please don't take it to heart."

What she brought was tea for apologizing.

"You are right, why do I care about it?" Yu Qiqi didn't know her intentions, she also admitted yesterday that she was not sure about the walnut cake.

"If the concubine hadn't made a fuss outside Chenghe Hall, the Crown Princess wouldn't have gotten drunk." She knew the news that Nangong Yan stayed overnight in Yaoguang Hall last night, early in the morning.

Seeing her sincere face and the sweat on her hair, Yu Qiqi quickly persuaded her, "I'm fine now, please put down the tea, don't carry it."

Lu Yin's hands trembled slightly, and then she put down the tea. Then, she raised her head and looked at Yu Qiqi carefully, "Is the princess going out?"

"Well, the crabapple flowers in the back garden are blooming. I want to go and see it with His Highness." She was beaming with unconcealable joy.

"The princess is really lucky."

Lu Yin smiled, with an envious look on his face.

"Does Wanniang want to go too?" Hearing the envy in her words, Yu Qiqi remembered what she had promised Nangong Yan, and asked her slowly.

"Me, can I go too?" She asked cautiously.

"Your Highness treats you so well, he will be happy if you go with him, and I will be happy when he is happy." Going to the back garden with Nangong Yan was originally to please him.He would be happier with Luyin here.

"good."

Luyin agreed softly.

Zhao Niang stood aside and frowned.However, she also heard that Luyin told Nangongyan everything that happened before, so it seems that there is no need to worry too much.

After coming down to court, Liu Mo Nian sneaked up to Emperor Yan Jing's imperial study and told him that the person who filed the complaint had been found.

Emperor Yan Jing raised his eyes slightly, "Who is it?"

"It's Shizi Yan from the Prosecutor's Mansion." According to Nangong Yan's order, Liu Mo Nian blamed Yan Shiqing for this disaster.

In an instant, a complicated look flashed across Emperor Yan Jing's face, "Yan Shiqing?"

"Exactly."

Liu Mo Nian submitted both the forged complaint and the collected Yan Shiqing's handwriting.

Here.Emperor Yan Jing's face brightened.

Could it be that Yan Shiqing knew about Concubine Yi and Song Gaohuan?If he knew that Concubine Yi was his biological mother and did such a thing, wouldn't he be shooting himself in the foot?

After Liu Mo Nian finished his errand, he hurriedly disappeared from his presence. If he stayed for a moment longer, he might show his timidity. He was not good at doing such things that wronged others, and he was afraid of being punished by God.

"I have delivered the things to the emperor according to His Highness's instructions." After leaving the palace, he went to Nangong Yan's sedan chair to reply.

"This matter. It's up to you to follow up." Nangong Yan did not lower his head, and drank the tea in the cup.

"The old minister obeys."

Liu Mo Nian bent his back and got out of his sedan chair with a wry smile.I thought this matter would end here, but I didn't expect to have to keep an eye on the future trend. Liu Mo Nian expressed that he felt very bitter.

But the person sitting in the sedan chair was a big devil, and he couldn't resist.

Nangong Yan remembered that she wanted to go to the back garden with Yu Qiqi to enjoy the flowers, and as soon as she returned to the East Palace, she went to her Yaoguang Palace, where Lu Yin was also there.

"Wanniang is here too."

He was surprised, Chu Peiyu followed behind him, Xiao Su's eyes also flashed a trace of surprise.Unexpectedly, Yu Qiqi lost her memory, but she was able to sit down with Luyin and have a good conversation.

"Your Highness, you are back. The Crown Princess has been waiting for you for so long." Lu Yin smiled, stepped forward to take his hand, brought him in front of Yu Qiqi, and vacated a seat on her own initiative.

"Wanniang also wants to go to the back garden with us, wouldn't it be happier to bring her Highness?" Yu Qiqi stood up and asked what he meant.

Seeing her questioning so carefully, Nangong Yan raised her eyebrows, "That's natural." Now, she has become a lot more understanding.

The three of them laughed and walked towards the back garden.

A Jian followed behind, looking unhappy.Seeing her like this, Chu Peiyu frowned. "Why is Miss Ajian doing this?"

"I want you to manage!"

She choked on him angrily.

Chu Peiyu's face changed, so he had to shut up obediently.This is also a pungent personality, he dare not provoke him.

The crabapple flowers in the back garden are in full bloom, and the fragrance of flowers is everywhere.Walking down the garden full of crabapple flowers, you will find a bottomless fish pond. The stones on the riverside are soaked in water and are very smooth. If you walk on it, you may accidentally fall into the fish pond.

When passing by the edge of the fish pond, Lu Yin said: "Your Highness will help the Crown Princess to go there first, and the concubine should just be more careful."

"It's okay, I'll take Qiqi there first, and I'll take you later." With a smile on her face, Nangong Yan stretched out her hand to Yu Qiqi who was behind her. She didn't shy away, and put her palm into Nangong Yan's , Nangong Yan turned her head and led her forward carefully, with Lu Yin following behind her.

The stone under her feet was too slippery, Yu Qiqi was worried about Lu Yin's safety, she turned her head to Lu Yin and said, "You come and hold my hand, it's better this way."

She was too careful in the past, and she almost held her breath to say this sentence, so her voice was not loud.only.As soon as her hand touched Luyin's wrist, she yelled, "Princess, don't push me away!" Immediately afterwards, there was a piercing scream, and Luyin's body had already fallen into the fish pond .

The whole person sank more than half of his body, only showing his hands fluttering on the fish pond.

Nangong Yan's expression changed drastically immediately. He looked at Yu Qiqi in shock, and asked in a cold voice, "What are you doing?!" The next moment, he jumped into the fish pond. Two voices.

Yu Qiqi's face became dull.The heartbeat kept beating "chug chug", and Luyin jumped down, which had nothing to do with her.

She may have slipped down by accident, her fingertips only touched her wrist, and nothing else.

Can just such a light touch make people lose their balance?

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

Chu Peiyu, who was following behind, heard the movement, and ran up in a few moments. Behind him, many attendants followed, and they all started to save people.

A Jian ran to Yu Qiqi's side and took her away from the fish pond.Her hands were terribly cold, her expression was still in a daze, and her eyes were closely watching the movement in the fish pond.

Nangong Yan's water quality is not bad, but Luyin passed out in the fish pond, and presumably drank a lot of water.Nangong Yan hugged her, first handed her over to the attendants by the fish pond, and then climbed up from the fish pond.

Lu Yin's face was terribly pale, and her lips were also turning purple. Once out of the fish pond, Nangong Yan hugged her and rushed to her Changhuan Palace.

For a while, Chu Peiyu and the attendants followed. Everyone was worried about Luyin's safety, and the back garden suddenly fell silent.

Yu Qiqi could clearly hear the sound of her heart beating.

"Princess, let's go back too." A Jian persuaded her.

She hadn't recovered from the fright just now, she just nodded hurriedly.Then he got up and followed Ah Jian back.

When Luyin fell down the fish pond, her forehead hit a stone on the side, and a large piece was broken. After soaking in the fish pond for a while, her whole body trembled even in a coma.

Nangong Yan hugged her tightly, telling her not to be afraid, trying to ease her undecided emotions.Thinking of the words she yelled before falling into the fish pond, Nangong Yan's eyes, which were red with water, became cold.

After the imperial physician came, he told the imperial physician to treat him well, and he went to Yaoguang Hall.

Yu Qiqi was sitting on a carved pear wood stool, holding a warm cup in her hand, A Jian went down to fetch hot water for her, and Zhao Niang went down to soothe her nerves with ginseng tea.

Seeing Nangong Yan, she hurriedly stood up and asked him anxiously, "How is Wanniang? Is she seriously injured?"

"Are you pretending?"

Nangong Yan walked in a hurry, and he stood in front of her in just one moment. His broad palms were tightly pinching the back of her neck, and a raging fire was burning in his bottomless eyes.

"What are you pretending for?" Yu Qiqi was in pain, and she couldn't help holding his arm with both hands, trying to make his strikes lighter.

"It's the same for grandma, and it's the same for Wanniang!" His hand on the back of her neck not only didn't lighten, but became heavier, and the anger in his eyes became more intense.

"Grandma..."

Yu Qiqi murmured, her eyes were stained with mist.The name sounded familiar to her, but she couldn't remember who it was.

"Who knows if you have really been enchanted by Concubine Yi, who knows if you have really lost your memory? You are the princess of Nanzhao after all!"

In her heart, she always hated Yanjing's contamination of the country, so she condescended to marry to Yanjing, and wanted to make the Yanjing royal family uneasy, didn't she? !

"I, I don't know what you're talking about?..." Yu Qiqi tried hard to remember, but she couldn't think of anything. The pain from the back of her neck became more and more intense, and the pain made the tears in her eyes unstoppable It slid down, and his face was icy cold.

"Pretend! You continue to pretend!"

Nangong Yan let go of her hand and pushed her back hard. She couldn't stand still, and her head hit the edge of the bed hard. The pain caused her face to contort badly, and the tears in her eyes fell even more fiercely.

"Princess! I fight with you!"

A Jian threw away the hot water basin in her hand, drew out her sword and stabbed at Nangong Yan's heart, Nangong Yan dodged her sharp sword with a cold face, touched A Jian's wrist with her finger, and he He slapped the sword in her hand, and then hit A Jian's back with his palm.

There was a sound from the back, A Jian supported her body, and spit out a mouthful of blood, Nangong Yan gave her a cold look, and left Yu Qiqi's bedroom in two or three steps.

The figure in the gold-trimmed gown gradually disappeared from her tear-covered eyes, "A Jian, A Jian..." she whispered.

"Princess!"

A Jian supported her body and walked towards her with heavy steps. The corner of her mouth was still stained with blood.

"Thinking about it, he is really angry this time." She stretched out her hand and wiped away the blood stains on the corner of A Jian's mouth, her eyes were full of loneliness.

"Leave me alone. Get up first."

A Jian took her hand and helped her up from the ground, she was hit hard on the head, Yu Qiqi felt dizzy as soon as she stood up, and then passed out.

"Princess! Princess!" Ah Jian shook her hard twice.

Zhao Niang came in with ginseng tea, and saw the mess on the ground, she hurriedly put down the things in her hand, ran forward and put Yu Qiqi on the soft couch together with Ah Jian.

"Stay here and watch, I'll send someone to bring in an imperial physician." After Zhao Niang ordered Ah Jian, she hurried down.

Enduring the severe pain in her back, A Jian covered Yu Qiqi with a quilt. Her hands were so cold that she hadn't warmed up since she came back from the back garden.

As soon as Yan Shiqing returned to the Proton Mansion, there were people from the palace standing in front of the door, and it must have been a while before the young eunuch in charge stepped forward and bowed to him, "Shizi Yan, Your Majesty invites you to the palace for a while. "

"There is Mr. Lao."

He had no choice but to get off his horse and follow the little eunuch onto the sedan chair to the palace.

Qing Yu also got off his horse, but failed to follow him in. Emperor Yan Jing pointed out that as long as he entered the palace alone, he had no choice but to hold the reins of the fierce horse and wait outside the Proton Mansion.

Soon, Yan Shiqing was brought before Emperor Yan Jing.In Emperor Yan Jing's hand, he was still holding the petition submitted by Liu Mo Nian, but he closed the petition.

"emperor."

Yan Shiqing bowed to him.

"I heard that you have returned to Nanzhao?" Emperor Yan Jing's face was quite cold, and his words were also full of questioning meaning.

"Something happened at home, so the guilty minister rushed back."

As a proton, leaving Beijing without authorization is a felony, this Yan Shiqing knows in his heart.

Emperor Yan Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, "The crown prince also knows about this?"

"Yeah." He nodded.

"The prince is sympathetic." Between the lines, there was a sense of praising Nangong Yan for his thoughtfulness.After a while, he asked again, "I married Qi Qi to the crown prince, do you resent me very much?"

Yan Shiqing lowered his head and frowned, not knowing why he asked this suddenly, his eyes tightened and he replied: "The emperor is also thinking about the stability of the two countries. Shiqing does not resent the emperor in his heart, but only hopes that the prince can treat the prince well." The concubine will be fine."

At this time, he had to answer from the perspective of Emperor Yan Jing.

"Oh? Even if the prince did those things to you, don't you care?" He was referring to the incident where Nangong Yan imprisoned him in the East Palace.

Yan Shiqing clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves slightly. Although he was talking about irrelevant things, he could hear that he seemed to want to inquire about something.

"The guilty minister is the proton of Yanjing, the crown prince is the rightful lord of the East Palace and the future emperor, the guilty minister dare not." He thought for a while, and could only respond by pointing out their identities.

"Don't you dare? I think you are very courageous, you dare to interfere in the affairs of the palace." Emperor Yan Jing looked at him, and the words he said were also yin and yang.

Yan Shiqing couldn't understand the meaning of his words, but if he said to meddle in the affairs of the palace, then only Concubine Yi was the only one.His brows tightened, and he immediately knelt down, "That day when the guilty minister entered the palace, he heard that the concubine Yi had called the seventh princess to the palace, so he was worried and wanted to go to the palace to have a look at her. Regarding the matter of the empress dowager, the guilty minister has absolutely no intention of interfering in the affairs of the harem."

"So, you risked entering the palace because of the Crown Princess." His tone softened a little.

"To be honest, the reason why the sinner came to Yanjing was also to see the Seventh Princess. Since she married in Yanjing, His Majesty and the Queen have always cared about her. When they were in Nanzhao, the sinner and her The relationship is very good, and I want to see with my own eyes how she is doing with the prince, so I offered to be an envoy to Yanjing."

Having said all this, Yan Shiqing didn't hide anything anymore.

Emperor Yan Jing leaned back on the chair, staring at him closely with his eyes, not moving away even an inch, and after a long while, he slowly said, "He is very affectionate, you should get up first."

"Yes."

Yan Shiqing stood up from the ground.

With a [-]% to [-]% chance in mind, Emperor Yan Jing asked him to retreat.

When he went outside, Yan Shiqing still looked preoccupied. It was really strange that Emperor Yan Jing called him in suddenly.It's not about accusing him of quietly returning to Nanzhao, nor about meddling in Yu Qiqi's affairs, but meddling in the affairs of the harem.

Unless, something happened to Concubine Yi.

Thinking of this, he clenched his palms tightly. In the final analysis, that was his biological mother. Although she did not show him any kindness in nurturing him, she protected his life back then. It is impossible not to worry.

He hurried out of the palace, and Qing Yu was already waiting outside. Seeing him coming out, he stepped forward and said to him: "My lord, the seventh princess has been released from the dungeon. I heard that it has been a while." Inquiring about him was quick.

Yan Shiqing was a little relieved, "I know." Then he frowned again, "There is one more important thing now, you have to find out what happened in the palace during the time we left Yanjing "In this way, he can know the current situation of Concubine Yi.

"Yes." Qing Yu bent over and agreed.

"Also, you go to the Eastern Palace to inform me, and say that I will go to visit Seventh Sister. She has come out of the prison, and it is not a breach of etiquette for me to visit her."

After thinking about it, Yan Shiqing decided to go and see Yu Qiqi, so that he could feel at ease.

Qing Yu nodded, and the two parted ways.

The imperial doctor said that Yu Qiqi hit his head, and the blood stasis left in his brain was washed away before he passed out. After the blood stasis in his brain melted slowly, he would wake up after promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals. up.

He prescribed two sets of medicine to Zhaoniang, and asked Zhaoniang to decoct her medicine according to the prescription.

Zhaoniang saw that Ah Jian was not seriously injured, so she asked the imperial doctor to show her too.After giving her the pulse, the imperial doctor's face became even more ugly, "A few tendons on Miss A Jian's back were broken, and it will take a while to heal, don't use the sword again these days ."

The old lady told her earnestly.

"Oh."

Ah Jian was injured a lot, only seeing Yu Qiqi who was still in a coma, and didn't take the old doctor's words too seriously.
