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

"Then, how is she now?" Lu Yin trembled, although she was soaked in warm water, but her forehead was dripping with cold sweat.

"Her?" Wu Lian sneered, leaned slightly, and moved closer to her, letting her see the gloomyness in her eyes, "Her fate now is a fate that would make life worse than death, if she doesn't get it For the person you like, you have to give everything for him."

Lu Yin's body was trembling, and her face turned pale.

"So, you have to know how to act first, so that you can get him completely." Wu Lian leaned into her ear and said softly.

Fear surrounds Lu Yin's heart, wrapping her tightly, making her feel breathless, "Then what do you want me to do?"

She is not someone who can be manipulated around, but if Yu Qiqi can be removed from Nangong Yan's side, she can stay by his side justifiably, such a temptation is irresistible to her.

"You go into the palace to look for the concubine Yi, and just say that the crown princess asked you to go." Wu Lian stood up, staring at her with a pair of gloomy eyes.

"Miss Concubine Yi?!"

A wave of panic flashed across Luyin's face. Although Concubine Yi's status in the palace is not as good as before, she has had grievances with her before, and she doesn't want to have any contact with her again.

"Yes, you just need to do what I tell you. Don't think too much about anything else, let alone ask too much." After coldly leaving these warning words, Wu Lian disappeared from her bedroom.

Linglong came in from outside the screen, holding an incense burner in her hand, seeing that she was awake, she hurriedly put down the incense burner in her hand, picked up her clothes and ran over. "Your Majesty, seeing that you accidentally fell asleep, this servant wanted to bring over an incense burner so that you could rest in peace. I never thought you would wake up so soon." When her hands touched her shoulders, she was stunned. Down, her body was trembling.

"Put on your clothes quickly." She thought she was freezing.

Lu Yin didn't say anything, just put on her clothes quietly, and walked out of the tub, her feet were still stained with water, dripping onto the felt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I heard that His Highness is staying with the Crown Princess again tonight." Linglong squirmed.Pass the message to her.

Hearing this, Lu Yin swung away the censer which was set aside vigorously. The censer was knocked to the ground and made a loud noise. Then, there was her scream, and her hand was burned by the censer.

"Ma'am!"

Linglong yelled, and hurriedly supported her to sit outside, looking for ointment to treat her wound.

On the back of her hand, it was hot and red, and there were bursts of stinging pain.Let her tighten her eyebrows, and a stream of hot sweat oozes from her back.

"Don't be angry, Your Highness will never forget you." Linglong comforted her while treating her wound.

"How could he forget me, I must make Yu Qiqi pay the price!" Lu Yin gritted her teeth, stared coldly ahead, and tightly grasped the edge of the chair with her other hand.

"Yes! The servant girl is talking too much!"

Linglong hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to say any more.

What Wu Lian said in the night, Lu Yin kept firmly in her heart, she could faintly sense that the old person she was talking about was herself, if she didn't want to become like her, she had to do what she said, no matter what, as long as If she could get rid of Yu Qiqi, she would do it!

After leaving the East Palace, Wu Lian sneaked into the palace and saw the people in Gu Xia's hands staring at the Liangxi Palace, acting very covertly.

She hooked her eerie eyebrows and left from the palace.

Concubine Yi didn't expect that Luyin would come to look for her.She lay on the recliner, only looked up at her once, then closed her eyes again, eyes full of disdain.

"Miss Yi, the king of Xichu asked me to come to you. She said that in the future, I will cooperate with you internally and externally, and send them news."

Before Wu Lian left, she told her her identity.

"You are an ungrateful slave, why should I believe your words?" Concubine Yi opened her thin lips lightly, without raising her eyebrows or eyes.

She will not easily forget about Luyin's betrayal of her.

"Last time, Concubine Yi asked me to harm His Highness, I thought of His Highness, and I couldn't bear to hurt him, but this time is different, I want Yu Qiqi to disappear from his side, His Highness can only belong to me alone! "Her eyes were ruthless, and she was a little more determined than before.

"If you want to monopolize Nangong Yan, it depends on whether you have the ability." This time, she slowly opened her eyes and glanced at her.

Concubine Yi was quite shocked by what she said.

Lu Yin raised her eyes, and said slowly, "So, I heard what Wu Lian said, and came to look for Empress Yi."

"You are much more courageous than before." Concubine Yi smiled slightly, but she couldn't understand whether this sentence was a compliment or a threat to her.

"Niang Niang, I will rely on your help in the future." Lu Yin didn't stay long, and hurriedly left from her Liangxi Palace.

Concubine Yi tightly grasped the handle of the reclining chair, her face turned blue and then pale.

Ever since he messed up the matter of staring at Nangong Yan, Yu Zhengyan went to see the King of Xichu County more often, and he didn't want to lose this backer.

The king of Xichu County narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and didn't even look at him, "Last time, you couldn't even do such a small thing well. How can you make me trust you again? If the throne of Nanzhao It is really Nanzhao's sorrow to hand it over to you." He sneered a few words.

Yu Zhengyan sat on the chair, lowered his head, and clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves tightly into fists, "The king of the county taught me the lesson, but the king of the county is in Nanzhao, and I am the only assistant. I have done a lot of things for you, if you want to find another assistant, it will take a lot of time, now you and I can't delay, why bother to spend all this time."

Hearing this, the King of Xichu's eyes fell on him, "You are right on the point. However, I can also send my capable officers over there. No matter what you say, it is better than you who messed up. . " He didn't let go.

"Even if you are the capable generals around you, they are no more familiar with Nanxun than I am. As long as we each get what we need, I believe we will have a very pleasant cooperation. Last time I messed up, I will make up for my sincerity to you." Yu Zhengyan nodded slightly and put down his airs.

"Fifth prince is courageous, able to bend and stretch, this king appreciates that." He waited for his sincerity to see if it was big enough.

"This time, the county king must be satisfied."

He seemed to have a plan, got up and left his county palace.

Not long after Yu Zhengyan left.Wu Lian came back from the outside, and she walked quickly to the King of Xichu, looking at the direction Yu Zhengyan left, "Your Majesty, do you still believe him?"

If it had been left in the past, Yu Zhengyan would have lost one of his hands long ago, but he is the fifth prince of Nanzhao, and the King of Xichu County would not do anything to him, but he should no longer believe what he said.

"Why don't you believe it? Do you want to believe you?" He held a white cloth in his hand, wiped the long sword in his hand, and raised his long and narrow eyes to glance at her.

Wu Lian was stunned by him, and lowered her eyes. "It's the servant girl talking too much."

"How's it going?" he asked quietly.

Wu Lian frowned slightly, and settled down, "That Luyin is a smart man, after listening to the servant girl, he has promised to do what the servant girl said, the county king can rest assured."

"Oh? I want to know what you said to her?" The King of Xichu put down the sword in his hand, and raised his eyes to meet her.

For a moment, her eyes dodged a little, and then she said: "The servant girl uses Nangong Yan as a bait, and spreads out the relationship between her and Yu Qiqi. If she wants to stay by Nangong Yan's side forever, Squeezing Yu Qiqi away was her choice. In the past, Nangong Yan's thoughts were all on her, and she could live a more stable life, but now it's different, and she naturally understands what she wants."

"Is this true?"

It was impossible to tell whether he believed or doubted.

"Really!" Wu Lian couldn't deny it, only agreed.

The king of Xichu County didn't make things difficult for her, he handed her the long sword on the table and asked her to receive it for him.However, when the long sword was handed over to her, a majestic white light glowed and pierced into her eyes, causing her to narrow her eyes hastily.

He picked up the teacup on hand and lowered his head to drink tea.It seems that nothing has been seen.

Wu Lian put away the long sword, and retreated lightly, a trace of cold sweat broke out in the palm of her hand.

After returning from the Prince's Mansion of West Chu County, the relationship between Yu Qiqi and Nangong Yan has indeed eased up a lot. Unlike before in the East Palace, Zhaoniang is full of happiness every day. She doesn't know that the two of them are together What happened in the Prince's Mansion of Xichu County, but the two of them can stay together from time to time, and she is satisfied if they don't quarrel.

"Princess Concubine, according to your order, the dinner is prepared with His Highness's favorite dishes." After dismissing the serving ladies, Zhao Niang said with a nod.

"Um."

Yu Qiqi smiled and nodded.

In the past two days, Nangong Yan ate at her place, and thought that none of the dishes she prepared were his favorite, so tonight she specifically asked Zhaoniang to prepare Nangong Yan's favorite dishes.

When he was dining here before, Yu Qiqi never ordered him to do so, he always followed his own taste, but now that he changed his words with great difficulty, Zhaoniang was immediately a little happy.

However, after waiting for a long time tonight, there was no sign of Nangong Yan.Ah Jian didn't know where he went.

"Crown princess, do you want to warm up this meal?" The dishes on the table were already cold.

She looked outside and moved her lips and teeth, "It's up to you, take it down and warm it up." She didn't know when Nangong Yan would come, but she was afraid of the cold dishes he would eat when he came.

Zhao Niang called the ladies in the palace and served the dishes on the table to heat up one by one.

At this time, A Jian ran in from the outside, "Princess, don't be too hot, Your Highness won't come over!" In her words.With a bit of resentment.

"what happened?"

Yu Qiqi looked at her with puzzlement on her face.

"People from the Hall of Changhuan have been waiting for His Highness outside the East Palace for a long time. As soon as they saw his figure, they ran up to greet him, and led His Highness to the Hall of Changhuan." She just looked at Yu Qiqi After waiting for a long time, Nangong Yan was nowhere to be seen, so he ran out to search around, but he didn't expect to hear two little maids talking on the road.

"Forget it, there is Xue Ying on Wanniang's side. He can't take the child to the East Palace and leave it alone. If he comes to me every day, it won't make sense." Yu Qiqi said these words, I don't know why Comforting herself, or A Jian, she called Zhaoniang back, "Forget it, the dishes don't have to be hot."

"But princess, you want to eat too." Ah Jian frowned.

"I'll just eat it cold." It was the end of July at that time, and even in the evening, it was very hot and stuffy, which she had nothing to shy away from.

Zhao Niang replied, "Yes." Then she called the maids back, and put the table of dishes that Nangong Yan liked to eat in front of her again.

She picked up the chopsticks, took a few bites and stopped.Those dishes are Nangong Yan's favorite, but not her favorite.

"Princess Concubine, do you want my servant to order the kitchen to cook something for you?" Zhao Niang walked to her side and asked softly.

"No need."

She refused, her tone not very good.

She restrained her expression and had no choice but to ask the maids to remove the dishes.

"Princess, are you unable to eat just because His Highness is not here?" Ah Jian could see her mood changes.

"Who said that, the weather is stuffy, and I don't have much appetite." She replied stiffly.

"Yeah, the weather was sultry last night, but your appetite is quite good." A Jian curled her lips, trying to get rid of her words.

"Damn girl!"

Yu Qiqi stood up, knocked her once, walked to the round table, and fiddled with the signs on the table.She kept those cards for a long time. When she was alone in the Yaoguang Palace, she would take them out to fight with Ah Jian when she had nothing to do.

Now that Nangong Yan was not around, she took it out to fight, but she didn't have the same fun as before, and always felt empty in her heart.

"If you are really reluctant to part with Your Highness, this servant will call for you." Seeing her absent-minded look, A Jian volunteered to stand up.

"Don't go! As I said, I won't compete with Wanniang for favor." She said this to Nangong Yan when she first knew about Lu Yin's existence, and she thought so too.

Women in the palace compete for favor with men, which makes her feel sad.

"But if you don't fight now, others will come to fight with you." Ah Jian sharp-tongued, getting to the point.

"But if I went to look for His Highness now, it would be me competing for favor, and this would put the cart before the horse." For some reason, she remembered the idiom taught by the teacher.

Anyway, Ah Jian didn't understand, but without her permission.She would not go to find Nangong Yan without authorization.

If she had passed, she would have yelled expressionlessly at the door, "Your Highness, the princess is looking for you!" and then ran away in a hurry, people would think her a fool.

In the Hall of Changhuan, Lu Yin put his favorite dish in Nangong Yan's bowl. What she said was that Xue Ying hadn't had dinner with him for a long time, so he prepared this table for his favorite food. dishes.

He didn't know whether Xue Ying liked it or not, but he ate it with relish.

"Yeah, brother Yan, you've been so busy recently, you need to eat more." Xue Ying, who still had oil stains on the corner of her mouth, also helped him pick up a piece of meat.

"Ying'er will really feel sorry for Brother Yan." Nangong Yan smiled gratifiedly.

"Niangniang Wan will also feel sorry for Brother Yan." After hearing him finish, he added another sentence.

Lu Yin was stunned, a blush appeared on his face, and he moved his body to help him wipe off the oil stains on the corners of his mouth, "Talk less when eating."

Although the tone was reprimanding, it contained a bit of pampering.

"Yes." He responded obediently.

"Miss Wan is right, you need to listen to Mistress Wan more in the future, do you understand?"

Nangong Yan's words made Lu Yin's hand froze for a moment, and the smile froze on his face, and it took only a moment for him to return to normal.

"Understood." Xue Ying agreed while chewing the vegetables in her mouth.

This meal was a bit delicate.Lu Yin only knew that the relationship between Nangong Yan and Yu Qiqi had improved, but she never expected it to become so good.

After dinner, Lu Yin took off her outer shirt for Nangong Yan, and she asked, "Does Your Highness want to stay here tonight?"

A trace of hesitation flashed in Nangong Yan's deep eyes. Before he could speak, Xue Ying tugged at the corner of his clothes, raised her head, and looked at him with shining eyes, "Niangniang Miss Wan misses Brother Yan very much. Brother will stay with her for a while longer tonight."

He begged softly.

Nangong Yan's heart softened, and he raised his hand to touch the back of his head.He smiled and said, "Okay, Brother Nayan also listens to Ying'er."

He arched his eyebrows with a smile on his face.Linglong took his hand and led him out of Changhuan Palace.

Lu Yin took off Nangong Yan's clothes and waited for him to take a bath. He didn't come to her for some time, and he never thought that her massage technique was much better.

"Is Your Highness still satisfied?" She lowered her head and asked softly in his ear.

"Well, your massage skills have improved." His face was full of satisfaction.

"Your Highness is so busy dealing with inner court affairs every day, you can come here often in the future and let my concubine give you a press to relieve your fatigue."

Her words were soft and charming.

"Um."

Nangong Yan responded softly.

After taking a bath, he put on his underwear and was about to lie down on her soft couch, when Linglong shouted from outside, "You can't go in, Your Highness, he has already rested with your empress!"

"Get out of the way, or I'll be rude!" Another voice was from A Jian, threatening.

Linglong recalled the last time outside Chenghe Hall, she was lifted up by her like a chicken, she immediately took a few steps back in panic, "I won't let you in if I say anything tonight!" But in the words , but refused to give in half a point.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess is not feeling well, she has been struggling on the soft couch for a long time!" A Jian ignored her warning, stretched her neck and shouted inside.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yan's expression changed immediately. He picked up the clothes that had been placed on the screen, and hurriedly put them on.

"Your Highness."

Luyin ran out from behind the screen, wearing only a tulle skirt, the looming curves made the veins on his forehead twitch a few times, he said anxiously: "Take a rest first, Qiqi's body is not feeling well, I'm going over there."

"The concubine's body..." Before she could finish her words, a gust of wind blew by, and he had already run outside the inner hall. Her words "Where's the concubine's body?" was stuck in her throat.

Furious, she tore off the clothes hanging on the screen and tore them into pieces.

"What are you yelling about?! Shut up!" Linglong said, and ran up to fight her, but A Jian stepped aside, and she immediately fell forward.

Nangong Yan opened the door of the palace, just in time to see her lying on the ground with all sides facing the sky.

"What happened to Qi Qi?"

He frowned, didn't say much, and only asked A Jian Yu Qiqi's condition.

"After the crown princess had her dinner, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach, and rolled around on the soft couch several times. Your Highness, please go over and have a look."

A Jian regained her anxious expression and said to him.

Nangong Yan frowned slightly, stepped over Linglong's body lying on the ground, and ran towards Yaoguang Hall.

"you you!"

She looked angrily at A Jian who was gloating, A Jian made a face at her, and immediately followed Nangong Yan's pace.

Chu Peiyu on the side couldn't bear it long ago. Seeing A Jian's playful appearance, the smile on his face could no longer be hidden. Seeing this, Linglong immediately pointed her finger at him angrily. Turn around and leave.

Yu Qiqi's stomach is really uncomfortable, but after seeing the imperial doctor, she is already much better. The imperial doctor said that she had eaten cold food, that's why she had a stomachache, drink some hot water, let the cold air in her stomach dissipate, and then take a good rest It was all right, on her forehead, there were still beads of sweat from rolling around on the soft couch just now.

When Nangong Yan came in, he just heard what the imperial physician said. He frowned and walked in front of her, scolding, "Why do you eat cold food when you are so good?"

"The weather is sweltering, so I just want to eat some cold food to relieve the sweltering heat." Yu Qiqi grabbed the corner of the quilt and replied stubbornly.

"That's not true, the Crown Princess ate all the cold dishes that were waiting for His Highness to come down and wait until they were cold, that's why her stomach is so uncomfortable."

A Jian couldn't bear to see her lying like this, so she immediately exposed it aside.Yu Qiqi glared at her, and she took a step back.

There was a flash of distress in Nangong Yan's eyes, "Next time if I can't come over for something, you don't want to eat cold food. Fortunately, there is not much trouble tonight, otherwise you will really feel better." Instructed her, with a bit of pity.

"I see." She pouted, like a child who has made a mistake.

"Come on, drink this cup of hot water, slow down." Nangong Yan handed her a cup of hot water, asked her to hold it, and drank it slowly by herself.

Zhaoniang pulled Ah Jian, and the two quietly retreated.

Nangong Yan sat in front of her, took the empty cup in her hand, and helped her to lie down, "You rest earlier, I'll be here with you."

Yu Qiqi took his hand, and it was the first time she felt that his hand was so generous, clasping it under her cheek, "I heard that the last time you came back from Nanzhao was for Xue Jingcheng's case, When you met me in the county palace, why didn't you speak clearly?"

If it wasn't for what Zhao Niang said to her after she woke up from the East Palace, she would have been kept in the dark.

"You know, I don't like to explain too much to others." Nangong Yan stared at her with tenderness in his eyes.

"But you all know that I have misunderstood you so deeply, you should explain, even a sentence or two." Yu Qiqi's face showed a bit of anxiety.

"I don't know what the king of Xichu County told you, but I was really in a hurry when I came back from Nanzhao, and I was in danger when I went to Nanzhao. I didn't deceive you, and I didn't want to leave you behind. "He took her hand back and squeezed it tightly into his palm.

Yu Qiqi's eyes were red, and in an instant, his palm was soaked in moisture.
