Strong Woman: The Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 268

Long Xinyu stood in front of the cliff again, but her mood was completely different. Thinking that she was accidentally plotted against by Ming'er, she felt resentful, but now that she came here again, she didn't have any reaction.

Seeing her stupefied look, Xiangyun couldn't help feeling a little worried, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head and stroked her face, "Maybe she was afraid of scaring him."

Hongyun shook his head, "Back then, all the bones in my body were broken, and I didn't see how frightened he was. It's okay, let's go."

Xi'er left the carriage aside and followed, thinking that the horse would know the way back by itself.

The fog lingering in front of them appeared in front of the two people, and there seemed to be voices in front of them. I don't know if they were arguing about something, and the atmosphere was not very harmonious.

It sounded like a noisy crowd, there should be about a dozen people, Hongyun glanced at Long Xinyu, and got the same vigilant look in the other party's eyes.He made a gesture, and the three of them dodged and hid in the nearby woods.

The night was thick and foggy, and no one noticed them.

The people inside seemed to be arguing, "I told you earlier, this old guy doesn't know, you insist on coming, look, it's the way it is now."

"How do I know, he is so ruthless!"

"Forget it, forget it, stop arguing, and go back quickly to see if there is a way for the Lord to cure this poison."

"Forget it, that's the only way to go." After they finished speaking, they walked out of the mist, and then they could see their faces clearly. They were all in Tuoba's attire, and their hair was curled up high, which showed that their identities were extraordinary. .

The leader was dark-skinned. Long Xinyu looked at it carefully and frowned. This person looked so familiar, where had he seen it before?

Just as I was thinking, I saw that person suddenly look back, "What's wrong?" The person next to him hurriedly asked.

"I always feel like there's someone behind me."

"Don't worry about it, go back quickly and get rid of this toad poison." Looking down the man's neck, his whole body was festered, and a rotten smell could be smelled through the skin.

I don't know who the old naughty boy attacked so hard.

When the few people walked away, Long Xinyu and the others came out and plunged into the mist.

The splendid palace, Tang Jiao listened to Qiutong's words, and smiled, "Haha, does her concubine Yu think I'm the same as her? He, Tong Luoyang, can marry as many as he wants, and there are many big houses in the Holy Land, so why would he still live here?" Is it okay to stop? She is pregnant, afraid that others will steal her limelight?"

"I think it's because she was afraid that the emperor would favor others. That's why she released the message, but this happened only at the banquet in the hall. How could she know?"

Listening to the commotion outside, Tang Jiao said, "People from the Dou Kingdom are here, so she naturally has eyeliner.

so what?Anyway, I don't care who the emperor marries?But she is different, Concubine Yu, you forced me. "

"Qiutong, you go to Wanchun Pavilion and tell the girls the news. Afterwards, report to the Queen Mother, saying that I am lonely and cannot live in such a big palace. If there are any distinguished guests in the palace, they must be arranged for me." Stay with me."

Qiu Tong was puzzled, "Ma'am, is this?"

"The emperor will definitely agree to this marriage, but considering Concubine Yu's face, people must stay. Since Concubine Yu can't tolerate her, I just want to keep her. Tiansheng can have the Princess of Dou Kingdom , can’t there be a Tuoba princess?”

It was arranged here, and as expected, Tuoba's envoy proposed marriage on the spot.

Although Tong Luoyang was curious about why he felt familiar with that woman, but he thought about Ming'er and the child in her womb, so he didn't respond immediately.After thinking about it, he is not the only man in the palace, but the eldest brother is gone, but the second brother...

When he raised his eyes, there was still the figure of the second emperor brother, and he felt helpless, he must have sensed something was wrong, and ran away with the strength of wine.

There is no way, the envoys below are still looking at him, he really can't shirk it, so he can only say, "I understand the meaning of your country, but this happened suddenly, and I can't arrange it for a while. If so, we can get married. If you don't want to wrong the princess, why don't you stay in the palace now, and discuss this matter in the long term."

To Tuoba Guo's ears, he naturally agreed, and he also expressed respect for their princess, and immediately thanked Tong Luoyang happily. The princess glanced at Tong Luoyang from a distance, turned around and walked away with the maid .

The fragrance of the woman's body in the air was still faintly lingering, but it was replaced by the smell of wine in the palace in an instant.

The envoy of the Dou Kingdom was a civil servant named Zhuo Le. Hearing what the emperor said, he couldn't help but feel happy. Tuoba only saw that they kept the princess, but he didn't see the hesitation in the eyes of the Tiansheng Emperor. Besides, Ming Princess Yu has already gained a firm foothold in the palace, even if their princess stays, it will not be a big deal.

The minister behind him whispered something in his ear, and he nodded.It seems that Mingyu's favor is indeed true.Then the Dou country will go to war with the Miao country, and Tiansheng will not stop it, but will send troops to help.

Now that Tuoba has surrendered to Tiansheng, the best way for Dou Kingdom to expand its territory is to go through Tiansheng's territory and fight to the north of Miao Kingdom.

The sound of the outer hall gradually became quieter. Tang Jiao put away the embroidery in his hand and exhaled slightly. Just as he was about to go to bed, Qiu Tong ran back from the outside with a hurried expression. Seeing that she was still asleep, she started talking. .

When she just walked from Wanchun Pavilion to Shoukang Palace, she heard that something happened in Shoukang Palace, and said that even the emperor invited him back from the front hall.She went forward to inquire what was the matter, and heard the chief eunuch in charge say that the Empress Dowager suddenly had a nightmare in the middle of the night, and she also suffered from palpitations all of a sudden.There was a lot of movement.

Tang Jiao frowned and said, "Did someone see you back?"

"No, the maidservant walked through the west side door, and today's clothes are also in the style of a little girl, not eye-catching."

Tang Jiao nodded in satisfaction, "Go, go to the imperial hospital to find someone, and they say that I am not feeling well, and I can't sleep well at night, so I can find an imperial physician to take a look."

Qiutong nodded, and hurriedly went to the side hall to call a few little girls to get up and light the lamps.

For a while, Shoukang Palace and Zizhu Garden were all brightly lit.There were so many people, Qiu Tong went to the Imperial Hospital to invite people at this time, but naturally he couldn't find them, so Tang Jiao dragged himself to Shoukang Palace as he had no other choice.

As soon as her frail face appeared in Shoukang Palace, the palace was already full of people, the emperor, the imperial physicians, Prince Feng, but she was the only concubine in the harem.

She lowered her brows and looked weak, I really felt sorry for her, and was about to step in when someone shouted, "Concubine Yu Gui is here."

Turning around, Ming'er was coming here with a grand guard of honor, flirted with Qiutong, and the two of them walked to the side hall, where Mo Yan was leading the little maids to make medicine.

When Tang Jiao entered, Mo Yan was terrified, "Oh, why is Concubine Xiao here? Since you are here, go quickly to the inner hall, the old empress needs you to accompany her."

The woman smiled gently, "As soon as Concubine Yugui arrived, I thought it would be bad to go in. I don't see you are busy here, so I can help."

What else did Mo Yan want to say, she hurriedly said, "Mama knows that the emperor's grandmother is not well, so don't push me away anymore. As long as the emperor's grandmother is in good health, it's the same whether I can see the emperor or not."

These few words are profound and righteous, much better than that Minger.Only such a woman can afford to be the mother of the harem queen.

Mo Yan nodded, and several people began to get busy.

At this moment, in the main hall, there was a war of words and guns, but the atmosphere was much more suppressed.

The emperor stood aside, staring at Tong Luofeng and not speaking.

Ming'er stood aside with her lips pursed, not knowing what had happened. As soon as Mo Yan came in with the medicine in her hand, she saw such a scene and understood a little bit. She flirted with Qiu Tong behind her. Go and call Tang Jiao to come in.

"Empress Dowager, this servant will help you drink the medicine. This medicine was made by Concubine Xiao herself. Look..." Looking at the door, Tang Jiao was walking in, with soot on the bottom of her skirt , the hands are not so fair, presumably because I just touched the kitchen utensils.

Looking at it like this, the old queen actually shed tears, "Oh, finally someone still remembers my old bones."

When she cried, everyone panicked. Tang Jiao walked slowly to her bed, picked up the handkerchief, and gently wiped away tears for the queen mother, "Grandma just coaxed us because she didn't want to take medicine?" Seeing a smile on the old lady's face, she quickly took the medicine bowl, "I'll feed you, I added candied fruit, it's not bitter at all."

The two brothers Tong Luoyang were very relieved to see this love between grandparents and grandchildren, especially Tong Luoyang. He didn't expect that he would treat Tang Jiao so badly, and she would treat his grandmother like this. It seems that he ignored her. Thinking about the purple robe she wore that day was a gift from the imperial grandmother.

But this scene, in Ming'er's eyes, was not a pleasant feeling. She was already dizzy by Princess Tuoba. I came to visit, and before I could say a word, I was put aside.

Annoyed in his heart, not worth it for himself, and not angry on his face, when he was about to find a reason to leave, he heard the old empress praise Tang Jiao.

She cursed in her heart, she was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Unexpectedly, Tang Jiao just said, "All I can do is to talk to you more, I can't compare to Concubine Yu, she is heavy, and she wants to spread branches and leaves for the royal family. Grandmother, look at her coming here with her body at such a late hour. You can see her filial piety."

Only then did the old lady look at her squarely, and waved her hands, "I know, you are heavy, so go back first. Don't make a mistake."

Ming'er won the amnesty, and she didn't care about pleasing the old lady. She thought to herself, it's the same if I put your son in my hands.

Here I thank you, smiled at Tong Luoyang, and went back to the bedroom, thinking that the envoys of the Miao Kingdom must still have something to say, and she would go back and ask about the situation of her father.

The old lady coughed twice, "You still know Aijia's intentions."

Tang Jiao pouted, pretending to be a little girl, "The emperor's grandmother made fun of the concubines again. When there are more sisters in the palace, you will definitely forget about me."

The old queen looked up at Tong Luoyang, Tong Luoyang didn't speak, Tong Luofeng said, "The emperor is lucky today, there is a third princess Tuoba in the Tuoba country's envoy team, she looks beautiful and dances very well, come to think of it, They want to marry to show their goodwill."

Hearing Tong Luofeng praise the princess so much, the old queen said happily, "It's so good, I'll let Aijia see it tomorrow."

As soon as the voice fell here, Tang Jiao pretended to be unhappy, "Look, the concubine's voice has not yet landed, you have fallen in love with the princess who has not entered the door, and the concubine will not obey."

There was a burst of hearty laughter from Shoukang Palace, and several people present burst into laughter. Looking at Tang Jiao's face again, Tong Luoyang felt that she was more virtuous and sensible.

Thinking about what happened back then, although he felt that he had forgotten something, he couldn't remember it, but that didn't affect his feeling that he owed Tang Jiao.

It was almost dawn after this back and forth, and the three of them went out together, and they looked a little like they were when they were young.At that time, the two sisters Tang Jiao and Tang Rao would often follow their mother into the palace to visit the empress dowager and empress, and they would occasionally play with the princes.

Tang Jiao didn't think anything, Tong Luofeng said, "The day before yesterday, your sister even mentioned Concubine Xiao, and said when she would come to the palace to visit her."
