Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 155 The only one who can help you is yourself

Back in Jing'an Hou Mansion, Jiang Jinyan ran into Yu Qingqian head-on.

Seeing her serious expression, Jiang Jinyan frowned, "Go in and talk."

Entering the inner room, Yu Qingqian took out the sachet, "There is extremely pure cinnabar mixed in here."

Jiang Jinyan was stunned, "Cinnabar?"

Yu Qingqian was also a little surprised, "This cinnabar mixed in the sachet is harmless, but it's very difficult to find what it is that makes you so careful."

Jiang Jinyan took the sachet, and the long fragrance inside was still fragrant, but there was an undercurrent that made him feel cold all over his body.

"It's okay, that's all for now."

Yu Qingqian hesitated for a moment, "Jin Yan, don't you want to pursue it anymore?"

Jiang Jinyan smiled slightly.

What I want to pursue with them is not only this matter...

She smiled and shook her head, "Yu Mo."

Yu Mo hurriedly stepped into the inner room.

"Miss, what's your order?"

Jiang Jinyan looked at the sachet for a moment, then handed the sachet to Yumo.

"Send it to Second Miss and tell her that the future will be long."

After seeing off Yu Qingqian, the mother of Yijing Palace came to the mansion.

Jiang Jinyan was not surprised when he heard that Princess Huaiqing wanted to see him.

The last time I wanted to see Princess Huaiqing.

After giving Mother Fang some instructions, she brought Yu Mo into the palace.

At this time, Yu Qingqian, who returned to Miaochuntang, looked behind him suspiciously, because the snow had not stopped, and there were still endless crowds of people in the vast expanse of whiteness.

But the feeling of being stared at seems to be an illusion but also seems real.

With a shudder in her heart, she hurriedly walked into the medical hall.

At the window of the teahouse opposite, sat a man in blue with a face like a peach petal and eyes like autumn waves.

With a smile on his face, he looked at Miao Chun Tang carefully.

"Everything is arranged?"

"Reporting to the princess, those untouchables have been driven to the south of the city."

The corner of Mu Nan's mouth twitched.

Next, it's a big show.

The guard behind him said in a low voice: "Princess, don't worry, all the magnolias in Luoyang City have been bought except this Miaochun Hall."

Mu Nan nodded, then took a sip of the tea in his cup, and frowned, "What kind of tea is this?"

Ali, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly said: "Princess, the store said it is the best Lanxi Maofeng."

Mu Nan put down the cup, "Forget it, take it away."

There is an endless stream of eunuchs and maids sweeping snow on the avenue in Miyagi, but this year's first snow seems to be endless.

Jiang Jinyan wore a crane cloak with a pattern of lotus and green buckets on top of the icing on the cake. Although there was rain and ink holding an umbrella, it was still covered in snow.

Fortunately, the wind is not too strong today, and thanks to the snow on the road, someone sweeps it from time to time, and finally reached Yijing Palace.

Entering the inner hall, a burst of heat hits.

Several court ladies rushed forward to take off the crane cloak on Jiang Jinyan's body, Jiang Jinyan nodded his thanks.

Dong Xiang came forward and saluted, "Thank you, Miss Jiang, for your help to my servants last time."

Jiang Jinyan smiled slightly, "There is no need to be too polite."

As Dongxiang stepped into the inner room covered by curtains, it became even warmer like a spring day.

On the huanghuali wood arhat couch at the top sits a woman in a pale pink brocade court dress that stretches the floor.

The hem and cuffs of her skirt are embroidered with light yellow patterns, and the light pink gauze dress outlines her figure, and large peonies are embroidered on the skirt.

The faces of Princess Huaiqing and Princess Huaishu are completely different, the former is more dignified and delicate.

At this time, Princess Huaiqing, who was wearing a little makeup, was holding bamboo scissors and facing a pot of orchids on the kang table with huanghuali and lotus patterns.

Jiang Jinyan slowly stepped forward and bowed, "My daughter has met His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

Princess Huaiqing kept moving her hands, as if she was extremely hesitant.

Jiang Jinyan glanced at the orchid, and there were a few bunches of leaves that needed to be pruned.

"The princess might as well cut off the long leaves next to the orchid in the middle."

Princess Huaiqing gestured for a moment, then laughed suddenly, "I see."

She turned her head, but saw Jiang Jinyan who was still kneeling.

"Miss Jiang is here, please hurry up."

Because of this pot of orchids, Princess Huaiqing now has a little more affection for Jiang Jinyan.

Jiang Jinyan got up calmly, looked at the orchids and said, "The courtier usually likes to take care of orchids when she has nothing to do, so she has seen a lot, and she just said it unintentionally."

Princess Huaiqing nodded her head, "Sometimes, only such unintentional words can get the true meaning."

She calmly sized up the stunning woman in front of her.

It really is that her eyebrows are like crescent moons, her lips are like crimson, and what is even more rare is that she is not charming, and the clarity in her eyes adds to her appearance a dusty elegance.

this woman...

There is really an aura that makes him have to pay attention to it.

Princess Huaiqing put down the scissors in her hand, "Come here, give me a seat."

Jiang Jinyan glanced at the brocade tree set by the maid beside him, and sat down with a slanted body.

Princess Huaiqing dismissed the maids and servants, and said leisurely: "I haven't congratulated Miss Xijiang on her engagement yet."

Jiang Jinyan lowered his eyes, "The servant girl is just following the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker."

That's true, although it is said that everything is simple in getting married, but the three matchmakers and six recruits are all available.

Princess Huaiqing laughed, "Miss Jiang doesn't know, but I heard that Marquis Zhen Guo had withdrawn two very important marriages a while ago."

Jiang Jinyan frowned slightly, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Princess Huaiqing was very satisfied with her performance, and continued: "It seems that even my imperial sister and the third princess of Anxi are all inferior to Miss Jiang. It is not worth letting me congratulate?"

Jiang Jinyan suddenly understood.

It turned out that the reason why Princess Huaishu was hostile to him that day was here!
Indeed, with Xu Junyan's appearance and talent, and already having such power at such a young age, he is indeed more dazzling among the young leaders.

If it weren't for the status of the concubine, I am afraid that the person negotiating marriage would have already stepped through the threshold of An Guogong's mansion.

But I didn't expect that the third princess of Anxi would have such thoughts!
But the Holy Majesty probably wouldn't agree. Most of the marriages between the two countries were in the royal family, otherwise it would be difficult to control.

How could the Holy Majesty be so relieved of Xu Junyan?

Although these words were in a joking tone, the light in Princess Huaiqing's eyes was even more tentative.

Tentative?

That is to know whether you can be used for it.

At this moment, even if I am an illiterate and confused person, I have already imprinted Xu Junyan's imprint on my body.

Even if you use yourself to provoke the relationship between Xu Junyan and Concubine Li, that is an excellent way...

But as far as I am concerned, I also need the help of Princess Huaiqing, otherwise I will have difficulty facing those open and hidden arrows.

Although Jiang Jinyan knew it in his heart, he still got up and saluted, "My daughter only knows that the marriage contract has been made by my father, but I don't know anything else, but my daughter should thank His Royal Highness the eldest princess for your kindness."

Princess Huaiqing stood up and supported Jiang Jinyan, "I just can't bear that Jinyan is so young, but he is innocently implicated and loses what he should have."

Jiang Jinyan knew in his heart that Princess Huaiqing wanted to confirm her mind, so she pretended to be frightened and bowed down again.

"The courtier is terrified, and please express it clearly, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."

Princess Huaiqing sighed softly, "What do you think of the plum wine that Jin Yan tasted in Lamei Garden last time?"

Jiang Jinyan frowned, but then he was relieved, the Holy Majesty also came to the pavilion that day.

It seems that the Holy Majesty is still wary of this Concubine Li's lineage.

She pretended to be puzzled, raised her eyes and said: "The minister was not feeling well that day, and she never drank that wine, it seems that she missed the fine wine in the palace."

Princess Huaiqing suppressed her smile, "Jin Yan did miss it, but the wine has some precious ingredients added to it, I'm afraid if Jin Yan drinks that wine, I don't know what will happen."

Seeing Jiang Jinyan's expression of astonishment and fear, Princess Huaiqing sighed and took her hand.

"If the Holy One hadn't become suspicious and checked, I'm afraid Jinyan still doesn't know where the crisis came from. I also saw that you just got a good relationship, so how can I bear to see you being tortured innocently?"

Jiang Jinyan saluted hurriedly and said gratefully: "Jinyan, thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your help."

Princess Huaiqing shook her head, "Jinyan said that I am the one who is going to get married, not to mention that even if I am here, I can't do anything to them on the bright side. The only one who can help you is yourself."

Jiang Jinyan thought to himself, it seems that Princess Huaiqing really hoped that she would meet Princess Huaishu.

Changing from the outer hall of Yijing Palace to the extremely warm crane cloak, Jiang Jinyan said goodbye to Dongxiang with a smile.

Yu Mo looked at the bottle of plum wine in his hand in puzzlement, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what does this mean?"

Jiang Jinyan saw that she was already unsteady holding the wine in one hand, so he took the umbrella from her hand, "This wine is a reward from the Eldest Princess."

It also reminds me where to turn my gaze.

The little eunuch who was leading the way was extremely clever, and when he saw Jiang Jinyan leading the door with a reward, he smiled even more, "The servant led the lady on a flat road, and I will keep you safe."

Yu Mo smiled and stuffed him with a silver ingot, "Then I will trouble the little eunuch."

It has been snowing for a long time, even in the palace city which is always cleaned by people, it is unavoidable that there are many areas covered with thick snow.

Jiang Jinyan said nothing, but thought of the ordinary people he saw outside the city gate who didn't have enough clothes to keep out the cold. Those were relatives of Zhengren.

And why not myself?

Stay in Luoyang, looking forward to recruiting people to return home.

It's just that there are more things I can do. This year's winter is extremely difficult.

If I hadn't had the foresight to make arrangements for the grain shop and Zhuangzi, I'm afraid the loss would be even greater.

And the food that I store up, I'm afraid it will be useful soon.

When the frontline is in chaos, the most important thing is to decide the hearts of the people!
Just as he was thinking, after being distracted, Jiang Jinyan had already stepped on a layer of thin ice around the corner.

With a sudden body shake, the umbrella in his hand had already fallen to the ground.

But in an instant, Jiang Jinyan was hugged by the waist of the person who was walking towards him.

Seeing the man in the black cloud leopard cloak, revealing the fine clothes inside, the little eunuch reacted very quickly and already bowed to salute.

"The servant has seen His Highness Duan Wang."
