Princess In Prosperous Age - C96 Deny Escort
As soon as he entered the Imperial Palace, he followed Huaixin to the Imperial Study. Before he even entered the door, he heard a bell sound coming from behind the door. He frowned slightly as he was noticed by Huaixin. Huaixin said softly, “The third prince brought Princess Nangong here to seek help.”
Su Shun seemed to have sensed that Su Chen had cleared up the room. He called out to him, “Quick, invite the Seventh Prince in.”
Huaixin pushed the door open and stepped through the threshold. In the middle of the imperial study sat the current emperor, and on his right was the Third Prince of the Southern Kingdom. He wore a purple robe, and had a kind expression on his face. The third prince was seated next to the princess, the princess Nangong whose entire body was tinkling loudly.
When Nan Gong saw him come in, he hurriedly pulled the Third Prince Nan Mo’s sleeves and shook it, raising his chin, indicating for him to take a look at clearing up.
The Southern Sudan sized up the entire situation from top to bottom before standing up and cupping his hands in salute, “Southern Sudan greets the Seventh Prince.”
Su Qing also cupped his hands and replied, “Third Prince is being too courteous.”
Nan Gong jumped up as if he was familiar with something and walked towards Su Qing. He put his hands behind his back and asked while smiling: “Look, am I very compatible with the Seventh Marquis?”
Su Shun did not expect Nangong to be so direct. He coughed lightly and smiled, “Princess Nangong is truly lively and naive.”
As if avoiding her, he walked to the chair opposite the Southern Sudan and sat down.
The Southern Sudan seemed to be accustomed to its sister’s boldness. It laughed out loud and patted the seat beside it. “Nangong, come and sit down. Don’t scare the Seventh Prince.”
Nangong pursed his lips and unwillingly sat by the Southern Sudan’s side. However, he continued to look at her clean face.
As if he could not see Nangong, he went straight to the point, “Are you here to borrow troops, Third Prince?”
The Southern Sudan nodded and said somewhat helplessly, “The Southern Kingdom’s military is not strong. This time, the Eastern Kingdom is coming in full fury. Even if the entire country were to resist, it would only extend the time the Southern Kingdom perishes.”
Su Su Qing then looked up at Su Shun and asked, “Then, what is His Majesty’s opinion?”
“The Eastern Kingdom is too domineering. They originally wanted to send troops to Xuanyuan Kingdom, but they changed their route and went to the Southern Kingdom.”
The Southern Sudan humphed and said, “It’s still not Nan Li. I don’t know what he’s under …”
Suddenly, he remembered that he had come to ask for help, and since Nanli seemed to have something to do with the Prime Minister’s Estate, he stopped talking.
Naturally, he knew the cause and effect. He laughed out loud and said, “Alright, since the warriors of Xuanyuan Kingdom killed the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Kingdom and caused this incident, I will definitely lend this soldier to the Southern Kingdom.”
Su Moyu stood up and said, “Since Your Majesty has already made up his mind, there’s nothing to clear. How do you plan to send out the troops? Who will lead the troops? Tell Your Majesty to clean them up then. Clear them up and take your leave.”
Seeing that Su Qian was about to leave after sitting for a while, and she had not seen enough of him, Nan Gong Yi stood up too. He wanted to grab her sleeves, but Nan Gong ended up like a fish, he slipped past Nan Gong’s hands and headed towards the door.
When the Southern Sudan saw Su Chen’s actions, he was slightly unhappy. Even though he was under a roof right now and had to lower his head, his actions were still a bit infuriating.
The Southern Sudan stood up and walked over to Su Qing in a few steps. He crossed one of his arms and said, “Seventh Prince, this is the first time us siblings have come to the Royal City. How about you bring us siblings to see this magnificent city?”
Nangong was about to cry. When he saw the Southern Sudan blocking their way, he pursed his lips and smiled. With his back facing the Emperor, he gave a thumbs up to the Southern Sudan.
Su Qingqing lowered his head to look at the Southern Sudan’s arms. He was curious, why was everyone from the Southern Kingdom so arrogant?
When Su Shun heard the Southern Sudan’s words, he agreed, “That’s true. Su Qingqing, bring these siblings to have a look at our Wang Cheng’s prosperity.”
He then turned around and cupped his hands, “Your Majesty, please forgive me. This humble servant is going to prepare the army for the Southern Kingdom. I don’t think the Third Marquis wants to drag this on for too long, am I?”
The reason for this rejection was perfect without the slightest flaw. The Southern Sudan blinked his eyes, but was unable to refute him. He helplessly gave up his seat, cupped his hands, and said, “Then I’ll be troubling Seventh Prince.”
Ye Zichen cleared the door and took a deep breath. What an unpleasant brother and sister.
He walked down the steps and prepared to walk out of the palace. A thick fragrance drifted over and he saw Yu Linglong walking over.
Su Hao did not have any intention of dodging, and walked straight towards Yu Linglong.
Originally, according to his and Nangong’s plans, he had planned to clear the entire Royal City with her to accompany her and the two brothers and sisters, but unexpectedly, he was a step too late. From the looks of it, clearing up did not allow him to do so.
Qing walked towards Yu Ling and stopped her steps. Looking at Yu Ling who was giving off a strong fragrance, she slightly frowned and took a few steps back.
Yu Linglong was a woman with an exquisite heart, how could she not see through the slight disgust. She opened her cloak and sniffed around, then explained: “I never thought that the osmanthus flower fragrance would be so domineering, next time I will change to a refreshing smell.”
Su Qingqing nodded and looked at the imperial study behind her. She then cupped her hands and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble you two, Princess.”
It might be the first time that Yu Linglong had heard Su Qingqing be so polite, but she was actually a little happy. She quickly waved her hand, pursed her lips into a smile and said, “Seventh Prince is too polite. If you have anything to say, go ahead and do it. ”
Su Qing straightened her body and smiled slightly. Then, she brushed past Yu Linglong’s side and got on the carriage. She threw out her black fur robe and spoke coldly to Hong Liang who was outside the carriage, “Burn it.”
The Southern Sudan froze in place the moment they raised their eyes. It was as if they had never thought that Yu Linglong would be such a gentle and unique woman. With just a glance, he wanted to take her life into his life.
Yu Linglong smiled at the Southern Sudan and Nangong, then bowed to Su Shunfu, and then to the two distinguished guests of the Southern Kingdom.
Nan Gong also returned the gesture and saw his third brother staring blankly at Yu Ling. He was ecstatic; if his own brother could marry Yu Ling away, wouldn’t it be his own?
Gently pulling on the Southern Sudan’s sleeve, he said softly, “Third brother, this is the most gentle and pleasant princess I’ve ever told you about, Yu Ling’er. She was the one who took care of me when I was in the capital. ”
Only then did the Southern Sudan recover and hurriedly bowed, “Greetings, Princess Linglong. Many thanks for the princess’ care for royal sister.”
Yu Linglong hurriedly returned the gesture, “Third Marquis, you are too polite. This is something that this princess should do. After all, Nangong and I are on good terms.”
Su Ling stood up and went around the books to the three people’s side. She smiled and said, “This is great. We are still thinking about who will bring you two along. Princess Linglong is noble and elegant, well versed in books. With her by your side, this capital will definitely be much more beautiful.”
Yu Ling’s face reddened, and she quickly replied: “It is also Linglong’s fortune to be able to help Her Majesty solve the problem.”
In an instant, admiration filled the eyes of the Southern Sudan. This Yu Linglong was very perceptive; she was a leading lady.
How could Yu Linglong not think of what the Southern Sudan was thinking at the moment? She only thought that she could have one more person to help her, so why wouldn’t she do it?
The three of them, each with their own ulterior motives, decided to travel to King’s City on the second day before leaving the Imperial Palace.
Nangong followed the Southern Sudan back to the relay station. When they arrived at the relay station, he hung himself on the Southern Sudan’s arm like a spoiled child and said, “Third brother, don’t you think that Yu Linglong is doing very well?”
The Southern Sudan smiled and nodded as he thought of the woman with the docile eyes.
Nangong laughed, “Then what do you think if we marry her back to our Southern Kingdom?”
The Southern Sudan was startled, but then immediately smiled: “It shouldn’t be that easy.”
Nan Gong pouted and thought to himself: “Even if it isn’t easy, I must succeed. Only by doing so can I completely clean myself.”
Suddenly thinking of Su Qing, Nan Gong continued to ask, “Was the Seventh Prince like a jade tree in the wind today? Third Brother, can you ask the Emperor to grant us a marriage the next time we meet? If I were to be married off, wouldn’t our Southern Kingdom be much more stable? ”
The Southern Sudan thought about his cold demeanor and sighed, “Nangong, I saw the cold expression on the Seventh Prince’s face. I was really worried that he wouldn’t take good care of you.”
Nangong didn’t want to hear anyone say anything about his sweetheart. He covered his ears and jumped, the bell on his body ringing non-stop. It wasn’t until the Southern Sudan pulled her arm and promised her that she would propose to the Emperor that she gave up.
The Southern Sudan took out a fox fur coat and handed it to Nangong. “This is a fox fur coat made on a journey. I know that Xuanyuan Kingdom is already in winter, so I’m afraid that you’ll feel cold. I’ll give it to you.”
Nangong caressing the fox fur coat, suddenly thought of the little fox beside Qiao Liangjin and quickly told the Southern Sudan about what happened between Qiao Liangjin and the fox.
The Southern Sudan was overjoyed. Their Southern Kingdom had always liked dealing with weird ancient spirits. If he had the help of that fox spirit, he might be able to obtain the Southern Kingdom’s throne.
Thinking of this, he patted the back of Nangong’s hand and asked, “Is that little fox in the Prime Minister’s Estate?”
Nan Gong nodded his head and even took out a pen to draw the path to the residence of the prime minister. He then threw the pen away and said: “Third brother, Sixth brother did not take the fox away the last time he came. You must work hard this time. Also, Yu Linglong does not like this Qiao Liangjin. If you help her deal with this demoness, then the princess must be very grateful to you.
In Nangong’s world, she did not care about who became the emperor, as she was still a princess. Therefore, when she met the killer sent by the third prince in Shengcheng City, she could also accept it.
The Southern Sudan was somewhat suspicious. Why was Nangong urging him to snatch that fox? He was not stupid, but after hearing that Yu Linglong also hated that woman, he did not want to investigate the reason further.
Midnight, the third fragment of the night.
The sleeping Qiao Liangjin suddenly opened his eyes, reached under the pillow and pulled out the dagger.
