Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 99
"I can understand the empress's love for the princess, but this cannot be considered as a long-term solution. The princess was born in the palace, and this place is full of intrigues. As the first princess, the princess can't just avoid these fights blindly. If things go on like this, the storms she will encounter in the future will only get bigger, and she has no plan to deal with it since she was a child, and she will not be able to solve each of them in the future." Mo Qingli talked eloquently.

Shangguan Yun frowned and said: "I don't want Qianqian to live in such an ugly environment. I just want to ensure that Qianqian can marry a beloved man safely, and that her husband-in-law will protect her for a lifetime is enough."

"Your Majesty, don't forget that no matter whether the princess marries or not, the princess is always the first princess. This status that the princess is born with will give the princess the glory that ordinary people can't match for a lifetime, and it will also be the shackles that the princess can't break free in her life. , she must learn to face it, in the future when the little prince ascends the throne, the princess will be the eldest princess, and you, the empress, should really let go of the power."

Mo Qingli said lightly, "Could it be that you can still accompany the princess to complete the life of a concubine?"

Shangguan Yun was taken aback for a moment, then she calmed down and said lightly: "You are indeed doing well, but I don't want to see a princess who shows her sharpness. Dangerous situations, and other things, I believe in you and can handle them very well."

"My mother's lesson." Mo Qingli smiled slightly when she saw her let go.

When Mo Qingli came back, Princess Qianqian immediately pulled her and asked with concern: "What did the queen mother tell you to do? Did she punish you?"

Mo Qingli shook her head, and said with a smile: "Why would the good queen punish me?"

Princess Qianqian lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "Because I am a little bolder today, the queen mother must be angry."

"The queen won't be angry. The queen called me over because she praised the princess. She thinks that the princess is doing the right thing. She just doesn't want the princess to be arrogant." Mo Qingli said.

Princess Qianqian nodded half-understanding, but when she heard that she was being praised, there was still a playful smile in her eyes, and she pulled Mo Qingli and said, "Then come and help me see these pictures of Hua Taocheng. How's it going?"

The fresh flowers were cleaned very quickly, and the fragrant flower dew had already given off a light fragrance. These were much simpler than Mo Qingli's own making, but they were only for Princess Qianqian's fun.Princess Qianqian had a great time, while Mo Qingli took the opportunity to leave her bedroom quietly.

She walked through the imperial garden in a hurry, wanting to go to Jun Shecang's imperial study, but saw Duan Rujin and walked in with her maid.Mo Qingli stopped, and waited under the tree directly opposite, only to see that Duan Rujin didn't need to notify, just said hello to Xing'an, and went straight in, which shows that she often goes there.

Her breathing was stagnant, her eyes were only fixed there, Duan Rujin had been in for half a cup of tea, and she hadn't come out yet, what would she be doing inside?Mo Qingli felt a little tired for a while, she walked out from under the tree, and bumped into a group of patrolling guards, the group of guards saw her sneaking around, immediately stopped her and asked: "Which palace are you from?" Your maid, why are you hiding here furtively?"

Mo Qingli replied calmly: "I am the maidservant next to the princess, and I just came here to look for my things."

"It's obvious nonsense, I recognize the maidservant next to the princess, there has never been a person like you, it must be an assassin in disguise, take it down quickly." The leader waved his hand and ordered people to surround her.

It turned out that Shangguan Yun was most worried about the safety of the princess, and she was afraid that there would be someone who didn't know about Princess Qianqian, so everyone was carefully selected and would not change easily.

In the He Palace, only Princess Qianqian served the most clearly, and it was convenient for the guards to investigate, but this time I bumped into Mo Qingli. Because of Mo Qingli's identity, Shangguan Yun did not make a big fuss when arranging her. The guards didn't know her either.

Mo Qingli was taken aback for a moment, and she said, "I was sent by the empress to serve the princess."

"The empress sent a new maid, why didn't I know? You said you were sent by the empress, what evidence do you have?" The captain of the guard looked at her suspiciously and asked with a drawn out voice.

"What are you talking about? Does the empress need to report to this eldest brother when she arranges a court lady?" Mo Qingli frowned, "If you don't believe me, you can escort me to the empress's palace or the princess's palace. The empress and the princess Her Royal Highness will recognize me naturally."

"How could the Empress and Her Royal Highness see you as a little servant girl, see that you don't understand what you say, and don't know the habits of our palace, are you still talking too much? Just press it down." The captain of the guard said impatiently .

"What's going on?" A calm male voice said.

Hearing this voice, Mo Qingli was startled, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Jun Shecang coming out of the imperial study room at some point, looking at them with a sullen face.I haven't seen him for a long time, but he described everything as good, and now he has an extraordinary aura, he is no longer that cynical and dandy prince, he really has the prestige of supervising the country.

Duan Rujin was by his side, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she was very close to him. Standing together, they were exactly the legendary couple.

"Returning to the prince, this woman was standing under the tree and was sneaking around. I caught her. She said she was a maid under the princess's hand, but no one had ever seen her. Seeing that she didn't match her words, I was planning to Detain him and torture him." The captain of the guard said respectfully.

Duan Rujin smiled and said, "My lord, I know this maid. She is indeed the maid next to the princess, and was sent by the empress."

Jun Shecang nodded, and saw that although the maid was besieged by everyone, her expression was calm and fearless, her brows were slightly frowned, and she couldn't help asking: "Since you are the maid next to the princess, why are you here?" Did the princess send you out?"

"It's not that the princess sent me out, it's just that when I followed the princess to pick flowers in the imperial garden this morning, the servant lost the earring by mistake, and only when I went back did I find that the princess was just busy cleaning the dew, so there was nothing to order the servant, the servant I just wanted to take the opportunity to come and look for it." Mo Qingli had already prepared an excuse.

Seeing that she was wearing a crystal purple jade earring on her left ear and her right ear was empty, Jun Shecang asked, "Then you found it?"

Mo Qingli shook her head, "It must have been picked up by Gong'e."

"Don't worry too much, I also have a pair of purple jade earrings, I'll send someone to deliver them to you later." Duan Rujin said kindly, then took Jun Shecang's hand and said softly: "The osmanthus tea has just been brewed, the taste should come out now, go drink it."

Jun Shecang nodded, turned around and left.

"My lord." Mo Qingli shouted behind him.

Jun Shecang turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"The princess is talking about looking for some books on art and literature today. I wonder if I can let the slaves go into the imperial study to pick up some and bring them back to the princess?" Mo Qingli asked.

Duan Rujin frowned and said directly: "The royal study is the place where the prince handles the important affairs of the court, how can you allow a little maid like you to go in casually?"

Jun Shecang waved his hand and said, "It's a good thing that the princess wants to read, but do you know how to read? Do you know what books the princess wants?"

"I have read books for several years, so I know how to choose books." Mo Qingli said.

Jun Shecang nodded, "If that's the case, then you can come in and choose."

Mo Qingli followed him into the imperial study.

All the furnishings in the imperial study room are extremely simple. Jun Shecang attaches great importance to the suffering of the people and dislikes extravagance, so he did not deliberately add things in the imperial study room. There are several crystal bottles on the table. A branch of fresh Phalaenopsis, the bright and warm blue-purple flowers look harmonious when inserted in the clear water.

Duan Rujin took a cup of hot tea and sent it to Jun Shecang. It is said that it was the osmanthus tea she brewed carefully. Osmanthus and orchid are both strong-flavored spices. The two kinds of fragrance can be blended with each other to produce a different kind of elegant fragrance.

Jun Shecang is very aware of Duan Rujin's thoughts and means. She is the kind of poetic and picturesque woman who always finds ways to liven up her life. Now that Duan Rujin has done this for him, Jun Shecang is also very useful It seems to have returned to the carefree days when I was a child.

After drinking the osmanthus tea, Duan Rujin was about to leave too, but she saw that the red leaf was still picking out from the bookshelf, so she stepped forward and said, "How are you doing picking out? It seems that you are having a hard time finding it." Look, let me help you find it."

Mo Qingli knew that Duan Rujin was worried that she was alone in the same room with Jun She Cang, an orphan and a widow, so she smiled slightly and said, "Don't bother Miss Duan, I will turn over a few more pages here to find out who is the princess. Love to watch, so the princess can watch it."

Duan Rujin frowned and said: "You have only served the princess for half a day, do you know all the princess's preferences? The princess doesn't usually read books, if you need anything, just send someone over to get it."

Mo Qingli smiled lightly and said, "Ms. Duan must not know much about the princess's temperament. The princess hates others to do things better than her. She doesn't like those well-behaved books, but likes to read miscellaneous travel notes and the like. Rumors spread the fastest, in order not to mislead the servants to make their own decisions, I helped the princess get some books. Even if the princess doesn't like it, it won't make the princess notorious for not doing business properly. "

Duan Rujin nodded, and said rather strangely: "You are caring, no wonder the Empress personally appointed you to serve the princess."

Mo Qingli blessed Fushen and said: "As slaves, we naturally have to share the master's worries. The Qiandie girl next to Miss Duan is the real ingenuity. Who in the palace doesn't know?"

Duan Rujin smiled, looked sideways at Qiandie and said: "I usually laugh at you for doing useless work, but I didn't expect you, a little girl, to have a better reputation than me."

Qiandie hurriedly said modestly: "I don't dare."
