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

Seeing Nangong Yan, he just said in a hurry, "The emperor is safe." Then he fled Fengluan Palace tremblingly.

He walked in quickly, and saw Zhaoniang picking up the debris on the ground, A Jian stopped Yu Qiqi from smashing the cups and jade wares on the table, for fear that she would hurt herself.

She is already three months pregnant, the first three months are the most important, and she cannot relax for a moment.There was bursts of anger on her face.

"Queen."

Nangong Yan walked towards her and called her softly, not daring to raise the decibel for fear of disturbing her.

"emperor!"

Hearing the cry, Yu Qiqi turned around and hurried towards him, grabbing his arms, "Go and kill those people, all of them!"

There was bloodlust in her eyes.

"What happened?"

Nangong Yan gently held her shoulder and asked her softly.

"They said that I was pregnant with a catastrophe, and they said that when I was born in the future, it would affect the emperor's road to the emperor. They are all swear words. Go quickly and arrest all those who spread the rumors!" She wanted to protect her child , I feel that I can't let anyone hurt him!

"Don't be afraid, you and our children will be fine. Those who spread rumors will be punished by order." She was very emotional, so Nangong Yan had to comfort her first, and let her calm down slowly.

He took her by the hand, let her sit on the recliner, and gently stroked her cheek, "Now you are pregnant, so be careful in everything, if there is anything, you can send someone to tell me, don't be so sad ."

Yu Qiqi stared at him, her eyes that were still full of anger just now calmed down a little, and her heart didn't beat so fast.

After A Jian and Zhao Niang cleaned up the debris on the ground, they retreated quietly, while Nan Gong Yan stayed inside, coaxing her to fall asleep slowly.

After she fell asleep, he took the thin blanket on the recliner, covered her body, lowered his head and left a kiss on her forehead, and then walked out.

"How did those rumors reach the Queen's ears?" He asked Zhaoniang with a cold face. After such rumors spread in Qin Tianjian, he had already blocked the rumors in the palace, just for fear that Yu Qiqi would hear them.

"Your Majesty, when I was walking in the back garden today, I overheard two maids whispering. Those two maids and slaves had already been slapped... Afterwards, the Empress became furious and threatened to kill them both." If she died, the servants were afraid that the matter would make too much trouble, so they took her back to the palace first, and then the troubles happened..." Zhao Niang replied in fear.

Nangong Yan turned her head and glanced inside at Yu Qiqi who was lying on the recliner. Ever since she became pregnant, her mood has been fluctuating, and she would explode at the slightest touch.

"If the queen wants to go out in the future, first dismiss the palace people on the way, so as not to offend her." He whispered.

"Yes."

Zhao Niang's expression tightened, and she agreed.

After Nangong Yan gave the order, the rumors in the palace immediately disappeared, and the whole court became much quieter.Not long after, this incident gradually faded from Yu Qiqi's mind.

Her belly was getting bigger day by day.A Jian and Zhao Niang stayed by her side almost every step of the way, for fear that something might happen to her.

All the palace people in the palace knew that the emperor was very concerned about his first child, and they were also extra careful, not daring to make any mistakes in the food and clothing sent.

......

When the news of Yanjing's border crossing came back to the King of West Chu County, Wu Lian was also standing beside him, his face was dark and very creepy.

Although Chi Ying is not a person who can hold his breath, he is not so impetuous. Shen Feihong's strategy of using troops is beyond their expectations.

"Nangong Yan knows that the battle at the border cannot be delayed, so he will not let Shen Feihong delay it for too long." Wu Lian, who was standing aside, said after hearing the urgent report.

"For Chi Ying's account, this king is on Shen Feihong's hands!" The king of Xichu County clenched his hands, wishing to tear Shen Feihong in half!

suddenly.There was a gloomy light in his long and narrow eyes, and he said slowly, "Call Yu Zhengyan over."

"Yes."

Wu Lian agreed and stepped back slowly.

After leaving the county prince's mansion, Luzhu quietly came to her, "Master Curtain, I have already received Concubine Yi."

"Is it settled?" There was a trace of concern on Wu Lian's face.

"Um!"

Green Pearl nodded immediately.

In this way, she felt relieved to go to Nanzhao to find Yu Zhengyan.

As soon as Yu Zhengyan got Wu Lian's notice, he didn't dare to delay for a moment. When he found an opportunity, he went directly to the king of Xichu County, which showed his sincerity.

The king of Xichu County took a sip of tea slowly, and then slowly said: "I heard that your sister is pregnant. As a brother, you should go over and say hello."

He was startled, and then he understood the meaning of his words, "The king of the county wants me to use this as an excuse to go to Yanjing to do business?"

"That's right, it took Shen Feihong's life."

When he said this, his expression was indifferent, as if it was not a human life.

"But he is a relative of the emperor. If I go, he will die. There is no guarantee that Nangong Yan will not suspect me."

There was already a tremor in his voice.

"My people can't go to Yanjing now. If you can't do this, I'll just find someone to go there. Fifth Prince, please."

Seeing the hesitation on his face, a look of disgust appeared in the eyes of King Xichu.

Such a person still wants to sit on the seat of Nanzhao Emperor?

"I go!"

Almost without hesitation, Yu Zhengyan immediately agreed.He knows that he doesn't like people who are not decisive enough.

"I have prepared everything for you. This is nightshade incense, a poison that I, Xi Chu, often use. If Shen Feihong is poisoned by this poison, you will only suspect me. You can get away with it."

He moved the small porcelain bottle that had been kept by his hand forward, Yu Zhengyan put the small porcelain bottle away, and his eyes shone brightly, "Don't worry, the king of the county, Zhengyan will definitely handle this matter well, and let you see me sincerity!"

"hope so."

The King of Xichu picked up the cup on the table and took another sip of tea slowly.

Wu Lian came out from behind the bamboo curtain, "The king of the county doesn't want this chess piece?"

"When necessary, the chess pieces must be sacrificed." He put down the teacup in his hand, and his narrow eyes were full of coldness.

When Yu Zhengyan returned to the Nanzhao Palace, he ran into Yu Zhengting. He caught up with him and asked, "Zhengyan, where have you been these two days? Father is looking for you!"

"Exactly, I also have something to ask Father!"

He smiled, and threw the things he had prepared for Yu Qiqi into his hands, "I prepared this for my younger sister Qi, please put it away for me!"

Yu Zhengting looked down at the things in his arms. He heard that Yu Qiqi was pregnant, and he thought that in the past two days, Yu Zhengyan was going to prepare a gift for her.

"What? Are you going to see Ah Qi?"

King Yishui raised his head and looked at you, Yu Zhengyan, who was panting slightly in front of him. He rushed over too anxiously, and beads of sweat were still hanging on his face.

"Yes, Father, Seventh Sister is pregnant. As a brother, I should go over and congratulate. Even the gift for Seventh Sister is ready!"

As soon as he mentioned Yu Qiqi, he smiled all over his face.

"But Nangong Yan has just ascended the throne, and your seventh younger sister has just ascended the throne. There must be many things to be busy in the harem, how can I have time to see you?"

King Yishui hesitated, not wanting him to just pass by.Moreover, Yanjing City is still very chaotic.

"Because of this, I have to go to see her even more. She is pregnant. If she works too hard, won't she be exhausted? I will go and have a look in person, so I can feel at ease." He tried to persuade her.

King Yishui thought for a while, and felt that what he said was not unreasonable, so he agreed, "Well, you must not stay there for too long, or you should cause trouble to your seventh sister."

"My son understands!"

Yu Zhengyan obediently agreed immediately.

When he left for Yanjing, the other five princes looked at him enviously, but King Yishui said that Yu Zhengyan was only allowed to go there alone. Come, not only embarrassing, but also cause trouble for Yu Qiqi, they can only give up.

"Brothers, go back."

After leaving the city gate, Yu Zhengyan waved at them, telling them to go back quickly.

A Jian took the letter on the carrier pigeon and flew back to Fengluan Palace, happily handing the letter to Yu Qiqi, "Princess, a letter from the eldest prince!"

Yu Qiqi hurriedly took over the letter, and Yu Zhengting said in the letter that they all knew she was pregnant, so they sent Yu Zhengyan to check on her, and said happy, so as to reassure them.

"My fifth brother is coming! He's already on his way!"

After reading it, Yu Qiqi's face was filled with joy.

"The fifth prince is coming, that's great!" A Jian also smiled with her, her mood has been unstable these days, and seeing her relatives will definitely give her a lot of peace of mind.

"A Jian, go and tell me to arrange a place for my fifth brother to live in the palace. I will definitely keep him in the palace for a few days!"

she said impatiently.

"Yes, princess!"

A Jian ran out quickly again, almost bumping into Zhao Niang who came in with the anti-fetal medicine.

"Your Majesty, I'd better ask Ah Jian to be more careful in the future. Now that you are pregnant, you can't let her mess around like this anymore."

Zhao Niang shook her head helplessly, with lingering fear still on her face.

"Okay, I'll talk about her in a while!" Yu Qiqi was happy, and readily agreed.

Zhaoniang glanced at the letter on the table, and then realized why she was able to do this, "It turns out that the fifth prince is coming to see you."

"Zhaoniang, please don't disclose this matter to the emperor. When he went to Nanzhao last time, he had a quarrel with my brothers. Wait for me to find a chance and tell him personally."

Thinking of this incident, she hastily told Zhaoniang.

"Okay, I've made it down." Zhao Niang knew her worry, so she didn't say much.

Two days later, Yu Zhengyan arrived at the Imperial City of Yanjing. The city was indeed still in chaos, and the soldiers and horses were rectifying it. The death of Emperor Yanjing brought a haze to the imperial city.

He frowned and walked towards the palace.

Yu Qiqi prepared meals early in the morning, waiting for Yu Zhengyan to enter the palace.

After a stick of incense, Ah Jian brought Yu Zhengyan in from the outside, seeing Yu Qiqi's slightly bulging belly, Yu Zhengyan's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward to hug her, "Sister Qi, did you come back last time?" In Nanzhao, Nangong Yan still treated you like that, now you have the flesh and blood of both of you."

He hugged her a little tighter, her words choked with sobs, Yu Qiqi knew that he was happy for herself.

She leaned on his shoulder, blinked her eyes, and said with a smile: "Fifth brother, if you push harder, you will suffocate me to death."

Now, he hastily let go, "It's all Brother Wu who is so happy."

"Come on, sit down quickly, you have already traveled for two days." Yu Qiqi pulled him and sat on the brocade stool.

But he glanced outside, the palace people outside carried the ones he brought from Nanzhao, the other five princes saw that he had prepared gifts for Yu Qiqi, they also prepared a bunch of good gifts, and competed Let him bring it over to Yu Qiqi.

"My brothers still haven't changed." Yu Qiqi smiled, and then put vegetables in his bowl, "You don't need to worry about those things, I will order them down and let the palace people put them away."

"Okay. Seventh sister, you should also eat more. Now that you are pregnant, you have to feed the little guy in your belly." Yu Zhengyan also added vegetables to her bowl.

The two brothers and sisters enjoyed lunch together happily.

When Yu Zhengyan entered the palace, Nangong Yan was still in the early court. Since Shen Feihong returned from the victory, the court wind in the court has improved a lot. There are fewer ministers defending Emperor Yan Jing, and the voices of the two factions are gradually arguing. Gone.Nangong Ya's headache was much better.

Just as soon as he was in the court, he got the news that Yu Zhengyan had entered the palace. When he went to Nanzhao last time, Nangong Yan was very clear about what Yu Zhengyan did to him. Moreover, he had long colluded with the king of Xichu County together!

"Go to Fengluan Palace!"

With a hasty cry, he headed towards Fengluan Palace. The attendants at the side didn't understand why he was so anxious to see Yu Qiqi all of a sudden. It was just that her own brother came to visit her in the palace, but he didn't dare to say anything , can only silently keep up with his pace.

As soon as Yu Qiqi put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, he saw him walking in from the outside like the wind, and just about to ask him, he shouted eagerly, "Queen!"

Then he stepped forward, pulled her up from the brocade stool, and carefully looked at the meals on the table.

Seeing his nervous look, she laughed out loud, "Your Majesty, I just had lunch with my brother. It's fine."

The meal on the table was nothing, and his eyes fell on Yu Zhengyan's bowl and chopsticks again, seeing that he had eaten a lot, he was a little relieved.

Seeing the vigilance in his eyes, Yu Zhengyan felt a wave of panic in his heart. It seemed that he knew a lot in the Nanzhao Palace before.

However, he still stood up and saluted him, "I have seen the emperor."

"Excuse me."

Seeing no clue, Nangong Yan had no choice but to let him sit down first.He turned around, helped Yu Qiqi to sit down on the brocade stool, and blamed her, "Why didn't you inform me in advance when your brother came to visit you?" little things.

"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and the concubine is thinking that after my brother arrives, I will go to see you together. I never thought that you would come here first. I will ask the palace people to add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

There was apology in Yu Qiqi's words. When she wanted to ask the palace servants to add more bowls and chopsticks, Nangong Yan stopped her, "The queen doesn't need to be busy."

He looked at Yu Qiqi, concealed the coldness in his eyes, and then turned to Yu Zhengyan, "The fifth prince came to Yanjing for the first time, but I have been busy with government affairs recently, so I can't receive you. If you need anything in the palace, you can always Send someone to tell me."

His reaction was too aggressive just now, and Yu Zhengyan must have seen the clues, so he can only remain calm at this moment.

"I'm just here to visit Seventh Sister. Your Majesty doesn't need to be busy, the government matters." Yu Zhengyan nodded slightly at him.

"Well, you brothers and sisters have a good time talking about the past, I still have a lot of memorials to review." After he finished speaking, he patted Yu Qiqi's hand, stood up and left.

Yu Zhengyan sat on the brocade stool and watched him leave.

On the way back to the imperial study, Chu Peiyu asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, don't you need to send someone to watch him?"

All he said was, "No."

It was because he was too eager that he showed his clues in front of Yu Zhengyan, but he overlooked one thing. They are brothers and sisters. It could only be him, not Yu Qiqi.

If he saw the clues, if he still sent someone to stare at him, then he would not be able to show his feet.

Chu Peiyu nodded, feeling that he had his own considerations, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Suddenly, he stopped again, and asked quietly, "Have you found the whereabouts of Concubine Yi?"

"I was picked up by the maid next to Wu Lian. The King of West Chu didn't know about it." As soon as Concubine Yi appeared on the border of West Chu, the dark guards found her traces, but when they went forward to arrest her, Only then did they realize that she was accompanied by a maidservant, who was by Wu Lian's side, so they had no choice but to stop first.

There was a hint of interest in his eyes, "Think of a way to reveal this news to King Xichu."

"Yes."

Chu Peiyu bowed his head and agreed.

Leaving Yu Zhengyan to talk homely in the main hall for a while, Yu Qiqi asked Ah Jian to take him down.She had seen all of Nangong Yan's reactions just now, no matter how hard she could figure it out, she could tell that Nangong Yan was guarding against Yu Zhengyan.

However, in her eyes, this elder brother has always been diligent and diligent in helping Father handle court affairs, and Father also values ​​him very much and intends to let him inherit the throne.

But Nangong Yan was so guarded against him, it didn't seem like he was afraid that he would threaten his interests after he ascended the throne, but rather that he was afraid that he would harm her?

She couldn't figure it out, and she was a little tired, so she could only let Yu Zhengyan go back first.

A Jian took him to the residence she had arranged in Yunshui Pavilion, not far from Yu Qiqi's Fengluan Palace, so it was convenient for Yu Qiqi to come and find him.

After everything was settled, Ah Jian left his Yunshui Pavilion.

Yunshui Pavilion is divided into upper and lower floors. When Yu Zhengyan walked to the attic, he happened to be able to see Nangong Yan's imperial study. At this moment, he just stepped into the imperial study and looked at the bright yellow brocade robe.Yu Zhengyan's eyes exuded a hint of ferocity.

"Seventh sister, don't blame brother for being cruel. If you, a husband, dare to spoil my affairs, I will definitely not show mercy."

He grabbed the edge of the railing in his hand and muttered to himself.

......

After living in Huizhou City for a few days, Yan Shiqing was worried about Concubine Yi and also about Yan Churan's whereabouts, so he left Lin's house.

Lin Chaoge left with him. Before leaving, Lin Laohou was inconvenient to leave, so only Lin Chaofu came to see them off.

Lin Chaoge looked at his brother, wiped away the tears on his face, and waved to him.

"My father and mother are very nice people. When I get to the palace, I will confess your identity to them." Yan Shiqing patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

She nodded in relief and leaned on his shoulder.

The carriage arrived at Prince Yan's mansion before sunset.

Before Yan Shiqing came back, Yan Churan and Du Wanrong had been sending people to look for his whereabouts, and now seeing him standing in front of them safe and sound, they were relieved.

"Qing'er, who is this girl?"

Du Wanrong's eyes fell on Lin Chaoge who hired Tingting.

"Mother, you have to let people enter the mansion first and then interrogate them carefully?" Yan Shiqing joked.At this moment, they were still standing outside the gate of the mansion. According to Du Wanrong's temperament, they would not have enough time to ask questions.

"Qing'er is right." Yan Churan also pretended to reprimand her.

"Ah, yes yes."

Only then did Du Wanrong come to her senses, and hurriedly led them into the mansion.

Lin Chaoge smiled at him and followed her in.

"Father, mother, this is Lin Chaoge, the eldest lady of the Houye family in Yanjing. Before leaving, Old Houye Lin entrusted me to take care of her. From now on, she will stay by my side."

In the main hall, Yan Shiqing opened his mouth to confess to them, just like what he promised Lin Chaoge in the carriage.

Lin Chaoge walked up to the two elders and leaned towards them, "Fourth prince, princess. I really admire the son. Although my family has fallen, I will stay with the son and take good care of him. Please help me."

Yan Churan and Du Wanrong were both stunned. The Houye Mansion in Yanjing has been loyal and good for generations, and they all have a good reputation for this, but they didn't expect such a big thing to happen. Looking at Lin Chaoge, he appeared very gentle and pleasant.

Seeing that they didn't make a statement, Yan Shiqing said again: "Father and mother, I am also responsible for the downfall of the Lin family. I can't break the contract with what Master Lin entrusted me to do. Besides, Geer treated me really well."

Hearing this, Du Wanrong laughed first, "You silly boy, we didn't say no, why are you so anxious?"

Yan Shiqing's ears turned red, and only then did he realize that he was really too anxious.

"Although Ge'er's family background has declined, he was from the Marquis Mansion after all, so his behavior will not be too bad. You two are both talented and beautiful. Your mother and I agree."

In Yan Churan's eyes, there was a look of satisfaction.As long as Yan Shiqing no longer misses Yu Qiqi wholeheartedly, he can accept it.

In this way, Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge breathed a sigh of relief.

After having dinner together, Du Wanrong took Lin Chaoge and left first. They are both women, so naturally they have common topics to talk about.

After they walked away, Yan Churan asked him, "Qing'er, where is your biological mother?" He found out that after Emperor Yan Jing was killed, Concubine Yi also escaped from the palace.

"My mother originally left Yanjing with me, but after I arrived in Huizhou with her, she left first, presumably returning to Xichu."

Yan Shiqing stayed and wanted to tell him the same thing.

"Alright." Yan Churan sighed, lowered his head, his eyes were covered with sadness.

"Father, I'm worried that something will happen to her when she returns to Xichu. It seems that her relationship with the king of Xichu is not very good." As for the others, he didn't say much.

"I am also worried that something will happen to her when she returns to West Chu, but that is her choice after all. Now that Rong'er is here, if she comes to Nanzhao, I will be sorry for Rong'er."

It was not her choice to marry Emperor Yan Jing at the beginning, but after so many years, he has already let down a concubine Yi, and now he can no longer feel sorry for Du Wanrong.

Seeing the helplessness in his eyes, Yan Shiqing stopped talking.

After arranging Lin Chaoge's residence and talking to her for a while, Du Wanrong thought that she would be tired after rushing back from Huizhou, so she got up and wanted to leave.

Suddenly, she saw the emerald green bracelet on her hand, and praised, "This bracelet is not something a boudoir girl of your age would buy, but the condition is pretty good."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing what she said, Lin Chaoge's face showed a look of embarrassment, and then he replied, "This, this is a gift from someone..." The embarrassment in the words was obvious.

Du Wanrong stared blankly, then understood, "Is it from Qing'er's biological mother?"

"princess..."

Lin Chaoge's face turned pale with fright, she didn't know if she would mind wearing the bracelet given by Yan Shiqing's biological mother, let alone how the relationship between the two of them was.

Seeing that her face turned pale with fright, Du Wanrong hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, I don't mind. It seems that she treats Qing'er well, so I don't worry."

"She was afraid of causing trouble to Brother Qing, that's why she didn't come here with him." After thinking about it, Lin Chaoge still spoke for her.

"There is no mother in the world who doesn't care about her children." Du Wanrong sighed, feeling sorry for Concubine Yi, and she gave Lin Chaoge a look so that she didn't have to send her off.

Lin Chaoge stood where he was, looking at the jade bracelet on his wrist, his eyes darkened.

......

On the fifth day that Concubine Yi stayed at Wu Lian's place, the King of Xichu County got the news. He didn't expect that Yu Zhengyan hadn't caused waves at Nangongyan's place yet.His own backyard caught fire first.

"boom!"

In an instant, he crushed all the cups in his hand, and the tea dripped onto the ground along the corner of the table.The servant at the side was startled, and hurriedly squatted down to clean up.

He shook the black python robe vigorously, got up from the chair, and walked out the door of the county palace.

Concubine Yi came back from the outside, and as soon as she entered the house that Wu Lian had prepared for her, she felt something was wrong, and a chill shrouded her whole body.

"I went back to Xichu, instead of going back to my own home, I ran to live in this dilapidated house." The king of Xichu appeared from behind the pillars of the corridor and stood in front of her.

Seeing his face, Concubine Yi took two steps back in fright, especially his long and narrow eyes, which made her eyes shudder.

"Father, why are you here?" She calmed down and asked him in a whisper.

"Afraid that I'd come here?" He asked knowingly, but he just wanted to see how she was afraid of him and panicked.

"It's not that my daughter won't go back, it's just that I haven't figured out how to deal with the emperor..." King Xichu took a step forward, and she took a step back.

He stood still, staring at her tightly with his long and narrow eyes, "You are my daughter, can you really feel sorry for you as a father?"

"Father!"

Suddenly, Concubine Yi knelt down on the ground with a "plop", crawled towards him, grabbed the hem of his clothes and raised her head to beg him, "Father, please let your daughter know, she knows her mistake! Now that old bastard Emperor Yan Jing You are also dead, and the things your daughter has done for you can be regarded as complete, you let her live!"

King Xichu frowned. He hated people begging him the most, especially begging him on his knees. He lowered his body, grabbed her hair, and pulled it fiercely, "How could I have such a worthless person like you?" daughter?!"

"My daughter has done everything she should do. Now she just wants to live well and see my Qinger more..." If it wasn't for Yan Shiqing, she would have committed suicide a long time ago, and she would never have survived until now, let alone Kneel down and beg him!

"Oh yes, why did I forget that I have a grandson? According to your nature, if you don't have this son, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you at this moment, right?"

He understands her temperament best.

"No, no...don't touch him..." As soon as he heard Yan Shiqing's name from his mouth, Concubine Yi felt a chill down her spine.

"Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, I won't make things difficult for him."

He smiled, pulled her up, jumped up and disappeared from the house.

When Luzhu came to the house, it was already empty. She searched everywhere for Concubine Yi's whereabouts, but there was no trace.

"Master Curtain, Concubine Yi is gone!" She hurriedly reported the news to Wu Lian.

Wu Lian raised her head immediately, "Did you leave any letters?"

She shook her head, "There is no trace left in the house."

"problem occurs!"

Wu Lian gritted her teeth, a look of anxiety flashed in her eyes.Except for King Xichu, no one has such ability in her territory.

Green Pearl lowered her head.Wait for her to speak.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, just pretend nothing happened." She told Luzhu that this was a matter between her and the king of Xichu County, and she didn't want to involve Luzhu in it.

"But you..."

Luzhu wanted to speak, but she stopped her with her hand, so she had to swallow the words back.

Concubine Yi was brought back to the county mansion by the king of Xichu. He ordered his servants that without his permission, the princess could not step out of the mansion.

She went back to the days when she was under house arrest, only in a different place.

......

Yu Zhengyan stayed in the Nanzhao Imperial Palace for quite a while, and kept his own law and order. Seeing Nangong Yan, Yu Qiqi didn't make things difficult for him any more, and the doubts he had at the beginning gradually disappeared, and he no longer suspected that there would be some kind of relationship between the two of them. What grievances.

Moreover, once Nangong Yan's birthday is over, he will leave too.

"Princess, the Fifth Prince is here."

As in the past, A Jian came to her to report.

She raised her head, and saw Yu Zhengyan walking in from the outside, he didn't seem to be in a good mood, "Sister Seven, give me an idea, what should I give him for the emperor's birthday?"

It seemed that he was making trouble for this.

Hearing this, Yu Qiqi laughed, "Fifth brother doesn't need to mind so much, the emperor doesn't need anything, as long as he is willing."

Yu Zhengyan immediately retorted: "This year is his first year on the throne, and this birthday will definitely make a big fuss. If the gift I give is not good, wouldn't that be a blow to you and me?"

"Why don't you just choose one of the good gifts my brothers have prepared for me and give it to him." In Yu Qiqi's eyes, such things as birthday gifts can always be dealt with in this way.

"Nonsense."

He felt that he had found the wrong person. If he asked his sister, it would be better not to ask.

A Jian snickered and gave him an idea, "Why don't the fifth prince ask General Chu, he follows the emperor every day."

"Forget it, what happened in Nanzhao Palace last time, he still has a grudge against me and my brothers, I don't dare to provoke him in the past."

A look of fear appeared on Yu Zhengyan's face.

Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian looked at each other, then stopped talking to him, and let him worry about it.

But he was right. Nangong Yan’s birthday this time is indeed very big. His birthday is only five days away. Shangzuo asked him to make a big deal, saying that this happy event could dispel the haze in the palace.

Anyway, Yu Qiqi didn't quite understand what it meant, but seeing the joy on the faces of the maids and eunuchs, she felt much better.

In the next five days, Yu Zhengyan came to her less often. When she went to his Yunshui Pavilion, the maids also said that he was not there. She thought that he was going to prepare for Nangongyan's birthday gift, so she went Don't think about it any more.

On the other hand, Nangong Yan knew Yu Zhengyan's whereabouts like the back of his hand.

Chu Peiyu walked up to him and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the fifth prince's goal is Uncle Guo." During the few days when he disappeared, he was trying to get close to Shen Feihong.

Nangong Yan put down the folder in his hand, and a hint of teasing flashed between his brows, "The king of Xichu County really holds a grudge, but he just took the life of one of his subordinates, and he actually wants my uncle to take his life." Chu Peiyu said yes Shen Feihong, he guessed the intention of the king of Xichu.

"I have already sent someone to inform Uncle Guo." Chu Peiyu continued.

"Also, send someone to keep an eye on Yu Zhengyan. If something happens to him, King Yishui will put the debt on me."

Maybe it made the King of Xichu anxious, and when the time comes, they will bite the dog, and Nangong Yan will be the one who will be unlucky.

"Yes!"

Chu Peiyu didn't expect this, so he hurried out and sent someone to watch closely.

Shen Feihong knew the news, it wasn't Nangong Yan who directly sent people around him to tell him, but Liu Mo Nian.

He was close to Liu Moinian in private, so Yu Zhengyan wouldn't be suspicious in this way.

"The last time I went to Xichu, I didn't let him take my life. This time I killed his subordinates, he will definitely not want to let me go."

A playfulness flashed in Shen Feihou's eyes, he knew the tricks of the king of Xichu the most, he just escaped by luck last time.

"In short, the emperor will protect you." Liu Mo Nian comforted him. After all, he came back from a victorious battle. If Nangong Yan didn't protect him well, it is estimated that there will be rumors unfavorable to him in the court. .

"You old thing."

Shen Feihong teased him with a smile, and he laughed cheerfully, and didn't stay with him too long, got up and left, fearing that Yu Zhengyan would accidentally hit him.

For several days in a row, Yu Zhengyan did not find a chance to act. Seeing that Nangong Yan's birthday was approaching, he could not make such a thing happen at Nangong Yan's birthday banquet. Although the King of Xichu County did not send someone to Staring at him, but he knew in his heart that if the matter couldn't be done this time, he would definitely not believe him again.

Fortunately, Shen Feihong likes to linger in the willow alleys of Huajie, especially Mingyufang. Yu Zhengyan has already noticed that he has come out of it several times.

It was his only choice to start in Mingyufang, where there were many people with mixed eyes and mixed fish and dragons.

On this day, he took an opportunity to sneak into Mingyufang to find Shen Feihong's favorite singer, Miaoyin. She played the pipa well and sang well. favor.

Miaoyin is pretty, but she has always refused to accept someone to redeem her body.Yu Zhengyan had already found out that her father was holding on to Mingyufang's life, and the old lady of Mingyufang was holding her to death.

He came to Miaoyin and said to her, "Miss Miaoyin, I have a business to do with you, do you want to do it?"

"Who are you? I don't know you!"

She was sitting on a mahogany round stool, her voice was cold, and her personality was also cold. She was the kind of woman that men would try their best to get when they couldn't get it.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the key is that I can help you save your father and get you out of your current life." Yu Zhengyan's upright appearance was different from those of his sons and brothers who wanted to take her as their own.

"How can I trust you?"

She raised her brows and eyes, still with a cold look.

"That's all." Yu Zhengyan held a piece of his father's clothes in his hand.

Sure enough, Miaoyin couldn't sit still immediately, "Do you know where my father is locked up?!" The words also became excited.

"As long as you're willing to drink this in Uncle Guo's wine, I'll rescue your father." Yu Zhengyan didn't want to delay any longer, so he took out the nightshade incense from his sleeve and put it in her hand.

"This thing is colorless and odorless, and after taking it, the toxicity will only occur within two days, so I don't suspect it to be on your head."

Seeing the hesitant look on her face, Yu Zhengyan leaned over to explain to her.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Holding the small porcelain bottle tightly in his hand, Miaoyin agreed after a while.

"very good."

Yu Zhengyan smiled, drank the tea in front of her, hid behind the screen, and waited for Shen Feihong to come over.

When Shen Shi arrived, Shen Feihong's figure appeared in Mingyufang. As soon as he entered the songfang, the old lady led him to Miaoyin's room.

After closing the door, only Miaoyin and him were left in the room, as well as Yu Zhengyan who was hiding behind the screen.

Miaoyin saluted him slightly, then poured him a glass of sake, when she raised her head, there was a strange flash in her eyes, Shen Feihong stared at her, there was no other expression on her face, she was still smiling, "Miss Miaoyin I really can't get tired of listening to the song, and if I don't come for a day, I won't feel comfortable sitting in the house."

"Thank you, Uncle Guo, for your praise." Miaoyin leaned towards him, then sat on the mahogany round stool, picked up the pipa and began to play and sing.

Shen Feihong shook his head while listening, but he didn't pick up the sake on the table and drink it. Yu Zhengyan's eyes kept staring at the glass of sake.

After the song was over, he became interested, picked up the wine on the table and drank it down, "Good song, good song, Miss Miaoyin!"

But who knows, just after he finished saying this, his face immediately changed, becoming ferocious and terrifying, pointing at her and scolding: "You poisoned the wine?!"

Miaoyin panicked and stepped back holding the pipa.

At this time, Yu Zhengyan came out from behind the screen, and walked slowly to Shen Feihong who was prostrate on the ground, "Uncle Guo, you can go in peace."

"I'm afraid, are you the one who can go with peace of mind?"

Suddenly, he raised his head and slapped him hard!
