Chapter 130 The Craziest Little Thing

Northern Qi Dynasty.

Empress Jiang Shi was sitting in front of a phoenix-headed harp, her hands as white as fat were moving delicately on the harp strings.When Gao Yunzhan walked into the hall, she had just finished playing a piece.She looked up and saw Gao Yunzhan, with a doting smile on Peerless Qingcheng's cheek.

"I wish my mother and concubine peace and prosperity, and I wish my concubine mother all the best and good health."

After Gao Yunzhan finished his salute, Jiang asked him to stand up with a smile.After Gao Yunzhan sat down, Jiang shrank the smile on the corners of her lips, and retreated all the palace servants who served her.

When there were no other outsiders, Jiang sighed softly, "Zhan'er, you are not young anymore, so we can't delay any longer. Your father has already decided to choose for you from several official ladies in the capital." A beautiful and virtuous woman, I want you to marry her as soon as possible." Before going to Xiliang, the romance between her and the emperor is still a beautiful story praised by the world.

But in the palace of Xiliang, old things were brought up again.The reason why the emperor ordered the killing of the former empress after he came to power was spread from Xiliang to Northern Qi.

That nightmare-like experience made her, the queen, the object of many people's private criticism even if she returned to Northern Qi.

Many people reviled her.

Said that she confused the king's heart, so that the emperor Gao Junshen ruthlessly killed the former empress back then.

Secular morality is sometimes so straightforward and fruitless.When you are beautiful, everyone will surround you and hold you, and the romantic relationship between you and the emperor will be beautified infinitely.

But once the situation changed suddenly, she was given the title of "Beautiful Beauty and Disaster".Her Zhan'er failed to propose to Shen Qingli in Xiliang, but Shen Qingli's refusal made their mother and son even worse.

Although recently the emperor will still spoil her as before.But she also heard that the selection of the best girls in the palace, which has been suspended for many sessions, will be resumed again.This order was issued by the emperor himself.

The imperial palace has always been a place where only the newcomers laugh and the old ones cry.

It's been a long, long time since she was so disturbed.

Gao Yunzhan's two sword eyebrows raised wickedly, "Mother, concubine, the marriage can be temporarily postponed. There is still one thing in my mind." The trip to Xiliang was originally designed to use Shen Qingli to trick Lu Huai. But Shen Qingli turned against him at the end of his life and betrayed him.Let him, the prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty, become the object of marriage refusal by the princess of Xiliang.

Now in the entire Northern Qi Dynasty, I don't know how many people secretly ridiculed him, saying that the princess of Xiliang who lost her virginity would rather marry the great eunuch than marry him, the crown prince.It shows how incompetent he is, His Royal Highness the Prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The courtship at that time has now become the greatest humiliation in his life.

How could a man as proud as him allow a couple like Shen Qingli and Lu Huaiqi to "step on" him.

Empress Jiang seemed to see her son's reluctance, she pursed her lips and persuaded softly, "Zhan'er, mother and concubine know that you are definitely not reconciled in your heart now. But you have to remember, your father is not reconciled I love you, you are just one of his many princes. The mother concubine wants you to choose a crown princess among several powerful families. In the future, you can use the influence of the crown prince's mother family to make your crown prince more secure some."

Where the love of a king is as deep as the love of a mother and child.She wants to do everything for her prince, and successfully send her to the pinnacle of power.

Gao Yunzhan swallowed the words of refusal that were already on his lips when he met Empress Jiang's lovely and pitiful eyes.After a short moment of silence, he forced a forced smile again.

"Well, everything is up to you, concubine mother." Gao Yunzhan replied.

The sad look on Empress Jiang's face was covered up.

After Gao Yunzhan came out of the palace, he went straight back to the East Palace.One of his aides rushed to his study and reported to him, "His Royal Highness, Leng Feng sent a letter from Xiliang Feige... The national teacher appeared in Xiliang and rescued him in the name of Shen Qing's concubine/husband." Shen Qingli."

Gao Yunzhan's gloomy pupils flickered slightly, and a look of doubt gradually appeared on his evil face.

The national teacher and Shen Qingli?

How did these two people who couldn't beat each other get together?

"Where is the national teacher now?" He squeezed his pupils tightly, and then looked at the staff.The staff member shook his head lightly, "It should be still in Xiliang." He hesitated for a while, the staff thought for a while, and then added, "His Royal Highness, according to the news from Xiliang, Lu Huaiqi should have sent the whole The situation in Xiliang is under control..."

"Crack!" Before the staff could speak, Gao Yunzhan's wide sleeves had already brushed off the desk, and the contents of the desk fell to the ground with a "crack".

The whole ground was in a mess.

The staff held their breath, Gao Yunzhan's fox eyes flashed scarlet blood, and some fragments that he hadn't noticed before flashed quickly in his mind.

It was Shen Qingli who was recommended to him by the national teacher at the beginning, and said that Shen Qingli's fate was very strange.If he can use Shen Qingli to disrupt the entire Xiliang, it will definitely cause chaos in Xiliang.

But now after going around in circles, Shen Qingli directly betrayed him, and the national teacher chose to stand up to help Shen Qingli at this time...

A feeling of being betrayed flashed through Gao Yunzhan's heart.

"Bang!" With her fingers clenched into fists, she slammed it forcefully on the desk, her body bursting with evil spirit.

That night, as soon as Empress Jiang put Gao Junshen's attendant to sleep, there was a low coughing sound from the outer hall.Jiang Hou took a look at Gao Junshen who was asleep with his eyes closed, and carefully got off the bed.

"Empress, His Royal Highness sent you a letter." Her maid handed a letter to Empress Jiang, who had a bad premonition in her heart, and opened the letter, After seeing the contents of the envelope, Juemei's little face collapsed, and the letter fell from her hand.

Seeing that her face turned pale suddenly, Gong Nai frowned and asked with concern, "Empress Empress, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Hou clenched one hand on her chest, and with a pale face, she slowly turned her head to look at the temple.Through her elder brother's celadon screen, she could vaguely see Gao Junshen's tall and straight body lying on the dragon couch.

Her eyelids twitched uneasily, and her heart began to feel uneasy.

There is a strong sense of uneasiness in my heart.

I always feel that once the mother and son are separated this time, it will be difficult to meet again.

"Hurry up! Find someone to chase His Highness the Crown Prince! No matter what excuse or method you use, you must bring him back." Empress Jiang asked the maid uneasily.

Xiliang.

As soon as it got dark, "Ten Mile Brocade" no longer had the usual hustle and bustle, and it was closed immediately.

When Emperor Huai of the Ming Dynasty passed away, restaurants and teahouses could continue to open during the state funeral, but they had to close when it got dark.

In a certain elegant room on the second floor, Leng Feng glanced indifferently at the two women sitting on either side of the small mahogany Eight Immortals table.

Mu Yunyao, Shen Qingjiao.

Clearing his throat, he looked at Shen Qingjiao, "Miss Shen, you were the one who asked to see Her Highness the Second Princess. Now that Her Highness the Second Princess has come, you can talk to her face to face if you have anything to say." The meeting was Shen Qingjiao's repeated request, so he sent someone to invite Mu Yunyao.

As a result, Mu Yunyao thought it was his master who had returned to Xiliang, and came over very readily.

Now that the two people meet, he can't handle these two women, and he only hopes that these two women will not cause any trouble.

Mu Yunyao glanced at Shen Qingjiao arrogantly, her face was full of dissatisfaction.

"If you have anything to say, just talk directly. I have a lot of things to do every day, but I don't have much free time to chat with you here." She thought that Gao Yunzhan had returned to Xiliang, so she sneaked to Shilijin without telling A Ke.In the end, she was told here that it was only Shen Qingjiao who wanted to see her. Apart from being disappointed, she was even more filled with Shen Qingjiao.

Shen Qing's eyes narrowed like smoke, "Second Princess, Prince Gao said that we have a common enemy to deal with. Now that I heard that Shen Qingli has returned to Lu Dudu's mansion safely, I feel anxious, so I took the liberty I request the cold guards to send someone to invite Your Highness the Second Princess, let's take this opportunity to discuss how to deal with Shen Qingli."

Compared with the cold and arrogant attitude when meeting Mu Yunyao for the first time, Shen Qingjiao's attitude has changed 180 degrees this time. His attitude towards Mu Yunyao can almost be described as "kneeling and licking" To describe.

The name "Shen Qingli" reminded Mu Yunyao of all the punishments she received in the other courtyard in Yunwu Mountain.

She was very jealous of Shen Qingli in her heart, but there was nothing she could do, who made her lucky.Both Lu Huaiqi and the Northern Qi State Teacher protected her.She would not be so stupid as to frame Shen Qingli against the wind at this time.

She glanced at Shen Qingjiao again impatiently, and stood up from her seat, "Guard Leng, wait for your highness the crown prince to return to Xiliang someday, and then tell me. Someday, I will have other It’s not up to you to delay the matter to be dealt with.”

She lifted her foot to leave.

"Your Highness Second Princess!" A black shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and when she came to her senses, Mu Yunyao found that Shen Qingjiao had already grabbed her sleeve, "Your Highness Second Princess, Prince Gao wants to get rid of Shen Qingli so much. If you can get rid of Shen Qingli before he returns to Xiliang, Prince Gao will definitely look at you differently."

Mu Yunyao took a few steps back in disgust, trying to pull out the sleeves that were being held by Shen Qingjiao.

Shen Qingjiao didn't let go, between the two tugging, Shen Qingjiao directly tore off a piece of her sleeve with all her strength.

Now Mu Yunyao hated Shen Qingjiao even more.

Shen Qingjiao seemed to have seen the disgust on her face, and only then did a look of panic flash across her face, and she took several steps back respectfully, making an expression that did not dare to do it again.

Mu Yunyao's red lips pouted slightly, and she snorted contemptuously, "You should clear your mind, you are neither the daughter of the Duke of Anguo nor the Crown Princess, don't attack me as soon as you see me Move your feet. This palace is not something that a pariah like you can cling to."

After reprimanding Shen Qingjiao, Mu Yunyao walked out of the private room arrogantly holding up her skirt.But not long after, her screams came from outside the private room.Hearing this, Leng Feng hurried out of the private room to check.

Only after looking at it did she realize that Mu Yunyao was bumped into by a waiter who was delivering tea.The hot tea in the waiter's tray splashed onto the back of Mu Yunyao's hands, and Mu Yunyao immediately cried out in pain.

Seeing this, Leng Feng hurriedly took Mu Yunyao back to the private room, and ordered someone to invite a doctor.

The waiter who accidentally splashed on Mu Yunyao kept kowtowing to Mu Yunyao and pleaded guilty.Mu Yunyao had to let Leng Feng punish him.

Not long after, someone invited the doctor, and the scalded area on the back of Mu Yunyao's hand had already formed small blisters.The doctor carefully pierced her with a silver needle, and then applied medicine to her wound.

"It's really unlucky!" Mu Yunyao said coldly before leaving, and Leng Feng had no choice but to personally send someone to send her back to the palace.After both of them left the private room, Shen Qingjiao raised her eyebrows and took out a small piece of fabric from her own wide sleeve.

This is what she tore from Mu Yunyao's clothes just now.

In addition to this piece of fabric, she also... There was a calculating smile on the corner of her lips, and she walked away from Shili Jin with light steps.

After she didn't know how long she had been walking, a person suddenly appeared in the dark alleyway.

After the man approached, Shen Qingjiao looked over in the dim light, and Hong Yao's face was reflected in her pupils.

"Miss, the servant girl you asked for has already been left by the doctor." Hong Yao shook the bag in front of Shen Qingjiao while speaking.

Shen Qingjiao nodded in satisfaction, then looked up at Ziweixing in the night sky.She doesn't understand the sky, but it doesn't mean that she can watch Shen Qingli's status rise with Lu Huai and become the most honorable woman in Xiliang.

"Hongyao, how many days are there until the new emperor ascends the throne?"

"It's only half a month." Hong Yao replied obediently.

……

Emperor Huai of the Ming Dynasty passed away. According to the rules of the royal family, the emperor's funeral required the highest standard.After Shen Qingli came back, Lu Huaiqi originally wanted to spend more time with Shen Qingli, but the civil servants in the court wanted to make him look bad, and they said that there were so many sick leavers that Lu Huai needed to preside over the funeral of Emperor Huai of Ming Dynasty.Lu Huaiqi had to divert his attention temporarily, and was busy with the state funeral.

The husband and wife, one is the eldest princess of Xiliang and the other is a powerful official. The two of them are so busy that they even spend less time alone.

On the sixth day of October, after Minghuai Emperor was buried in a grand manner, it was a big day for the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Early in the morning, the palace people got busy with the enthronement ceremony.

At three poles in the sun, it is the auspicious time monitored by Sitian.As the eunuch shouted, "Welcome the little new emperor!"

The Twelve Princes led by Shen Qingli appeared in front of all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty under the eyes of all the people.

There was another burst of kneeling and prostration, and Shen Qingli noticed that Xiao Twelve's hand was covered with sweat. She lowered her eyes and smiled at him calmly, comforting, "Don't be nervous, with Eldest Sister here, no one will dare to say goodbye today." Embarrassing you, the new emperor."

Little Twelve stared at Shen Qingli with her neck straightened, her dark eyes seemed to have been rubbed into many stars, and when she looked at him, her eyes were shining brightly.

The little boy knew very well that after today, he would completely become a puppet emperor.

He has no power in his hands and is manipulated like a puppet.

But the sad thing is that with such a fate, he is already the best possibility among countless possibilities in his life.

"Sister Huang, help me talk to Lu Huai, I will listen to him carefully in the future. But if he dares to neglect you, I, the younger brother of the emperor, will not let him go easily." He knew in his heart that elder sister It has become his amulet, as long as his elder sister is there, his life as a puppet emperor will definitely be safe.

It's really hard to imagine how miserable his life would be if he hadn't met his elder sister.

Shen Qingli reached out and touched his head lovingly, then smiled again.

She didn't want to influence Lu Huai to get involved in the court affairs.But she will let Lu Huaiqi take good care of Xiao Shier.
