Princess Comes, Prince Obeys - C45
In the evening, the setting sun shone like the great earth, and the entire capital was covered with a golden veil that resembled the wings of a cicada. The great earth was covered with a mysterious color.
In the study of the Regent’s Manor, Yu Lingjing spoke with a somber expression, “It looks like I won’t need to attend the assembly anymore.” The woman in red, Hong Kou, stood to the side. Of course, he understood what the Prince meant. It was all due to that woman, but at this moment, she pretended that she didn’t understand and looked at the prince, “I don’t know why Your Highness is saying this?”
Yu Lingjing sighed and said lightly, “After breakfast, the emperor sent an imperial physician to treat Princess Wangfei when he heard she wasn’t feeling well?” Who knew — “Yu Lingjing would never have thought that her unintentional words would become the reason for that woman’s plot. I’m afraid that the following scene will only get more and more intense. The Emperor will also ask about this.
“Who knew that the imperial physician was helpless against it?” “I’m afraid that the Emperor …” Yu Lingjing still knew that Qi Wan County feigned illness to take revenge on him, but the current situation was no longer as he had expected. How could he have thought that his words about the princess being unwell would be valued so much by the current emperor’s own imperial brother? How could he have imagined that not only would that woman play this part, but would also think that she was terminally ill, using such a deceitful medicine to deceive the imperial physician? Right now, it was impossible to stop halfway. If the Emperor were to report that the imperial concubine was not sick, then he would be cheating on the Emperor. The crime of cheating on the Emperor could be big or small, and the punishment would be nine familial extermination. At best, he had lost his life or demoted himself to a civilian because a joke was not worth it.
Since there was no way out, he could only continue to play as planned. He hoped that there wouldn’t be any delay in the play to avoid the sound of the wind blowing.
“Oh? I wonder if it’s an imperial concubine? ” Hong Kui had a flirtatious expression as he looked at the prince with his watery eyes and asked gently.
“She’s all right. “It’s just that she used a pill to fool the imperial physician.” Yu Ling Jing said coldly, his eyes filled with hesitation and helplessness.
“How could this wangfei be so insensible?” Doesn’t she know that this is bullying the sovereign? ” Since the Prince told her the whole story, she didn’t have to pretend in front of him anymore. She had always hated that woman, so how could she let go of this opportunity?
“Hong Kou.” Yu Ling Jing said coldly, his cold eyes staring at the woman in front of him who he had once held in his hands. He didn’t know why, but even if she, Qi Wanli, had many faults, he still wouldn’t allow outsiders …
“Pay attention to your identity.” Yu Lingjing’s tone eased a bit and became a bit gentler, but to Hong Kou, the previous prince held her in his hands and never said a single harsh word to her. But now, that woman came, and not only had the prince been snatched away by her, even his heart had been taken away by her.
Hong Kou sneered, “Yes. This servant naturally knew his own identity. “It’s just that I feel heartache for the prince …”
Her lips that had been bitten were covered in blood, and the tears in her eyes slowly rolled down. However, the pain in her heart was far more painful than this pain. As if rubbing salt in her cut, Yu Ling Jing looked at Hong Kou’s wronged expression, blood trickling down from the corner of his mouth. He felt that his words were a bit too harsh. He slowly took out a silk handkerchief embroidered with peonies from his sleeve, handed it to Hong Kou, and accepted the handkerchief. He fell into deep thought …
That year, when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, outside the city gates.
“My lord. This handkerchief is for you. In the future when he was lonely on the battlefield, would he look at it? Would he, Hong Ke, be by his side? Your Highness will not be lonely, you will not be lonely. ”
“Right.” Yu Lingjing took the handkerchief, mounted the horse, and left.
Looking at the prince’s handsome and free figure, Hong Kou had a face full of happiness. From that time onwards, her wish was to always be by his side. She was even willing to be his concubine.
“…”
In the study room, Hong Kou looked at the handkerchief in his hand and sneered in his heart. He could not help but sigh. The handkerchief was still there, Hong Kou was still there, and the prince was no longer there. He was no longer the prince who held everything in his heart. With an imperial concubine, his heart …
This awkward anger lasted for a long time. Yu Lingjing wanted to extend his arm to comfort Hong Ke, but his arm suddenly stopped in midair. From the beginning to the end, he had always treated her like his sister. He had never thought about it in any other way. He did not want to hurt this beautiful and kind girl in front of him.
“If there is nothing wrong with Your Highness? Then, Hong Kou will take his leave first. ” Hong Kou wanted to end this awkward atmosphere, wanting to leave this place and find a place to ease his emotions.
“Right.” Yu Lingjing didn’t know what to say at this moment.
Hong Ke bowed to the prince and walked out.
Hong Kou held the handkerchief tightly in his hand as he walked. He did not wipe the tears from his eyes and even told her that this handkerchief was a memory, a souvenir worth collecting. At this moment, Hong Kou felt a sense of loss in his heart that he had never felt before. In this world, ever since her father passed away, she had treated the prince as everything in her life. She never thought that the prince would leave him, perhaps I was being too selfish, but in front of feelings, who wouldn’t be selfish?
As he looked to the sky, a pair of large geese began to fly past him in a row. Hong Kou sneered. It turned out that he was inferior to even a large geese. And they were a couple, if not a couple, then free? As for me …
At this time, Qi Xiang and Liu Qi came towards them. Seeing this woman, Hong Kou couldn’t bear to kill her with a single slash. Without her, perhaps the Prince would have changed his mind and become the true mistress of the Prince’s estate. Hong Kou’s bloodthirsty eyes glowered at Qi Wan County, who was getting closer and closer. He clenched his fist, and the poisoned pocket-sized dagger quickly slipped from his sleeve to his right hand …
“Is Miss Hong Kou well?” Qi Dian looked at the pretty face, black hair, and a slender figure. The red bandit dressed in red was like a fairy who had left the mortal world as he took the initiative to call out to her. If she wasn’t with Yu Ling Jing, if she wasn’t the one spying on her, then she would still like the mysterious person that spied on her a lot. Until now, she still had a sliver of fantasy in her heart and hoped that she wasn’t the enemy of Yu Ling Jing.
At the same time, Hong Kou never would have expected that the high and mighty wangfei would not mind her status and would take the initiative to speak to her. In the end, she suppressed her impulsive thoughts, because if she was the calmest and most rational woman under normal circumstances, then today, because of the prince …
Hong Kui secretly withdrew the dagger in his right hand, and looked at Qi Wanli with an unfriendly gaze. “Isn’t the wangfei well?” “Why are you here?”
The relationship between Yu Ling Jing and her was really out of the ordinary. Why did he always tell her everything? This Hong Kou was really his best friend. Qi Wanli silently sneered in his heart. Just as he wanted to curse Yu Lingjing, he was startled by what Hong Kou said next.
“May I ask Your Highness if you love Your Highness?”
Qi Wan County was stunned. She never thought that this Hong Kou would be so insolent. No matter what, he was still an imperial concubine. She didn’t know that it wasn’t that Hong Kou was being arrogant, but he was angry. In her heart, whoever harmed the king was her enemy. Naturally, she wouldn’t be polite when facing her enemy.
“Me? “Of course I love you, your highness.” She was just about to say that whether I love him or not has nothing to do with you, but Hong Kou beat her to it.
Hong Kou sneered, “What did the princess say?”
“Why are you talking to the princess like that?” The one that shouldn’t have come from Qi Wan County had actually been snatched away by Liu Qi.
Hong Qi didn’t pay any attention to Liu Qi, and her angry eyes were staring at Qi Wan County. Her attitude was as if she were a wangfei and Qi Wan was a servant girl. Did wangfei use some good method to deceive the imperial physician with a small pill? When the imperial physician returned, he would definitely report it to the emperor. And here you are, Princess. Do you know how much trouble this will bring to the prince? The King is guilty of bullying the King. ” Hong Kou glanced at Qi Shu County and said coldly.
Qi Wanli had just said something when Hong Qi was already far away.
Qi Wan County did not blame Hong Kou for his rudeness, only saying, “The prince is the crime of deceiving the monarch.” He lingered by the side of his ears all this time, then returned to his room and lay down on the carved red wood. He closed his eyes, filtering through his mind every detail of the Imperial Physician’s departure, thinking about every detail.
Suddenly, Qi Dian opened his eyes, and said with a face full of self-blame, “I was too rash. “All I want is to go against Yu Ling Jing, and …” This man probably already knew that he should have discussed countermeasures with Hong Kou. I’ve really gotten Yu Lingjing into trouble, what can I do to help him?
Finally, he came up with a countermeasure. Taking advantage of the darkening sky, he put on some night clothes and arrived at the wall of the prince’s mansion with a handsome and light movement technique. He carefully walked along the wall to the outside of the mansion.
They found the room where Ruan Qingyan was and sneaked in. Ruan Qingyan, who had just fallen asleep, asked about the light footsteps outside and knew that someone was visiting. In a flash, she appeared behind the door.
After a fierce battle, both sides felt that the other side did not have any intention of harming them. Perhaps it was one of their own, Qi Shu took off the black cloth covering her face and said softly, “Qing Yan is me.”
Hearing the familiar gentle voice, Ruan Qingyan lit up the lamp as she asked in surprise, “What’s wrong?” It’s you? ”
Qi Wanshi picked up a teacup and poured himself a cup of tea, gulping it down in one gulp. He sat down on a chair and said, “This is a long story. Sit down and listen to what I have to say.”
Seeing her good friend Qi Wanjun being so serious, Ruan Qingyan guessed that she must have run into some trouble, so she sat on the chair. Qi Wanli told the whole story to Ruan Qingyan.
“So that’s how it is. It seems like the Regent won’t be able to sleep tonight. ” Ruan Qingyan laughed coldly and said, “It’s all my fault. I don’t want to implicate him. ” Seeing her anxious good friend, Ruan Qingyan held her hand with a face full of confidence, “Don’t worry. What about me? ”
Saying that, she took out a black pill from her sleeve and gave it to Qi Wanli, “After you go back, take it. It will only take six hours for it to take effect. During this period of time, you need to restrain yourself and continue feigning illness. Leave the rest to me. ”
Returning to the manor, Yu Lingjing still hadn’t returned. He didn’t go to court, but his military affairs didn’t slow him down. He busied himself until late at night, and Qi Wanxian smoothly ate the medicine before lying down on the bed.
