Empress Fenghua

Chapter 36
Princess Xinyang held the Shenshang Sword in front of her eyes, feeling an unbearable depression in her heart.The moonlight shone on the sword, with a cold light, Xinyang put his left hand on the sword, his cold eyes were now full of deep sadness.

Hua Zhong walked into the garden quietly, there was no one else around, only Ban Xia was by her side.Xinyang frowned, and flew up, swinging the sword in his hand, flying out like a silver dragon.Leaping up, picking up the sword, and spinning, it is not like the softness and gracefulness of a woman dancing with a sword, but it has the momentum of a man conquering mountains and rivers.The falling flowers flying in the air were swept away by Xinyang's sword energy, flying all over the sky.

Xinyang sees Hua Zhong but doesn't seem to see it, he turns his wrist and stabs at Hua Zhong.The moonlight reflected the icy cold light on Hua Zhong's calm eyes.

Xinyang snorted coldly, put away the sword of Shenshang, and caressed the blade of the sword with his delicate hands, as if he was looking at the most precious treasure. "Miss Ning San doesn't know the consequences of breaking into the princess mansion?"

"The princess has expected that I will come, otherwise, how could the courtiers easily see the princess?" Hua Zhong smiled slightly, "Why does the princess have to ask so many times?"

Xinyang turned around and looked at Hua Zhong with a pair of phoenix eyes full of smiles, "I heard that Young Master Xue once gave Miss Ning San a peerless sword called Xiaoyu. Once the sword was released, people in the Jianghu became terrified and surrendered without a fight." Miss Ning San is willing to compete with Ben Gong?"

"Shenshang Sword belongs to the fighting spirit in the army, and Drizzle Sword is the sharp weapon of the mortal world. How can the two be the same?" Hua Zhong is cautious and modest, so that Princess Xinyang can't pick out the slightest difference.It should be known that the princess can regard you as a confidant, but you cannot surpass yourself.

Xinyang smiled unkindly, "Why don't you ask me why I know you have the Drizzle Sword?"

Hua Zhong's eyes sank, and he said with no change in his face, "The princess in the Lingshan forest must have found out who was plotting to assassinate the minister's daughter! The princess has a deep mind, which is not something the minister can guess, and the minister does not dare to speculate about the princess. heart of!"

"Ning Huazhong, as long as you can guarantee that you will keep your mouth shut, I will definitely get what you want." Xinyang sat down on the stone bench with his sleeves up, "Since you and I have the same goal, why don't we fight side by side and get what we need? ?”

Hua Zhong curled up his lips and smiled, and said embarrassingly and bitterly, "What the princess said is not impossible. It's just that my daughter encountered a difficult thing recently, which troubled her heart, and she couldn't sleep peacefully every night!"

Princess Xinyang smiled brightly, showing all her charm, "Miss San's affairs are my affairs. If Miss San can't sleep peacefully, wouldn't I feel guilty? Miss San said it's okay, and I will definitely help."

Hua Chong glanced at Ban Xia who was standing beside him. Ban Xia poured tea with her head down, but raised her eyes to look at the two of them from time to time, her eyes flickering.Hua Zhong recalled what Chu Hua had said to him, that it was Ban Xia who had an affair with His Highness the Sixth Highness.

"There is a person in the courtier's house who has the beauty of a city, but his morals are not good. It is a headache for the courtier, but recently the courtier thought of a sentence. The old man often said that marrying a wife is good, and marrying a concubine is good-looking. The courtier immediately Don't worry!" Hua Zhong looked up at Xinyang who was listening intently, "Does the princess understand?"

Xinyang sneered, "There is a difference between concubines and concubines, so the main house is naturally for a virtuous person to live in. Miss San is too worried."

"That's good!" Hua Zhong smiled, "My servant came in and heard something, can you tell the princess?"

"I'm feeling very bored! Miss San might as well tell this story for Bengong to listen to." Princess Xinyang took a sip of tea, "If the speech is good, I will naturally reward you."

Hua Zhong bowed slightly, "I heard that the assassination of His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince was done by His Royal Highness the last time at the Lingshan Gathering, and some people said that the news came from your residence, Princess Xinyang. My daughter thinks that if this is true, I'm afraid the emperor has already known it. Presumably there is no such thing!"

Princess Xinyang's face froze, and her delicate red lips curled up, "Who does the third lady think?"

Hua Zhong walked into Princess Xinyang, but his eyes were fixed on Banxia beside Xinyang. Banxia's breathing was slightly cramped, and his hands and feet stood there stiffly.After a long while, Hua Zhong smiled and said, "Miss Banxia has lived in the princess mansion for a long time, so she has a lot of experience with the princess. I would like to ask you, who does Miss Banxia think dares to assassinate His Highness the Ninth Prince?"

Banxia forced a smile, "How could my servant know! This servant only knows how to serve the princess well, and I dare not think about other things."

"I really don't dare to think about it, or does someone else think about it?" Hua Zhong said sternly, and drew out the Shenshang sword placed on the stone table and pointed it at Banxia's neck. "With just a slight movement, it can pierce your throat. Girl Banxia, ​​think about it. For someone who is impossible to marry you, will you make a mistake in your choice?"

Ban Xia tightly closed her eyes, shed two lines of tears, knelt on the ground, "Princess, please spare me! Ban Xia is confused!"

"Who instigated you to release false news? You framed this palace, and then framed His Highness Ninth Prince as unkind and unrighteous?" Xinyang's eyes were full of danger.

Ban Xia burst into tears, "It's Your Highness the Sixth Highness! The servant girl is on good terms with the Sixth Highness, and the Sixth Highness asked the servant girl to release the news after Princess Lingshan returns. The servant girl doesn't know about other things."

"Okay! Okay!" Princess Xinyang was full of anger, "People close to me dare to have an affair with His Highness the Sixth Highness, hmph, is Ye Xinjia not paying attention to me, or you, a lowly maid, don't know Flattery? I think you are tired of work!" Xinyang snatched the Shenshang Sword from Hua Zhong's hand.

Hua Zhong stopped Xin Yang and said with a smile, "The matter has come to this, why should the princess be angry? If you want to kill her, at least don't use Shang Shang!"

After hearing Hua Zhong's words, Xinyang's eyes were shaken, and he looked at the Shenshang sword in his hand with tenderness. "That's right, you don't deserve to die under the sword of Shenshang! Come here, pull it out, and show me that you are not allowed to die!"

A few black-clothed hermit guards appeared around and quickly gagged Ban Xia and took her away.

Xin Yang said, "Father has already suspected His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness, but the holy will is unclear, and no one in the court dares to suspect it. Concubine Meng tried to stop her more, and Father's heart softened for a moment."

Hua Zhong frowned and thought, "Princess, it may not be easy for the emperor to get rid of Concubine Meng and His Highness the Sixth Highness with all his heart. We might as well let him go and suppress the arrogance of Concubine Meng and His Highness the Sixth Highness so that the empress can relax." , It also made the emperor owe His Highness the Ninth Prince. One day, when the Sixth Highness makes another mistake, he will be crushed in one fell swoop!"

"That's right! You don't want to be trampled to death, but you will be bloody all over. If you don't go to the palace, you will enter the palace and ask the father to make the decision, and settle the matter of Miss Ning. This is also an explanation for the third lady. It's all about me. Give the third lady a meeting gift!" Xinyang smiled even more, and in this way, His Royal Highness and Ning Xinian would no longer be able to combine.

"His Royal Highness..." A servant hurriedly came to report, he hesitated to speak and glanced cautiously at Xinyang, "His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess is here to pay a visit. The chariots and horses are waiting outside the door."

"Presumptuous!" Princess Xinyang reprimanded sharply, "How can the Crown Princess wait outside the door? Please come in soon!"

"No need!"

When Hua looked back, she saw a woman dressed in a splendid attire but extremely elegant. The woman was dressed in an autumn-colored palace dress that was brilliant and dazzling, but the style was extremely simple.The clothes, crowns and jewelry are all ordinary, without any overhangs, and they have not lost their status.A face with delicate eyebrows is a little paler and more elegant. Is this the Crown Princess He Xiaojin?
He Xiaojin strolled up the steps, the silver bead chain on her head swaying, a little more lively. "Princess, don't be angry, it means that this palace wants to wait for the princess."

Xinyang was not in a hurry, he bowed slightly, and his salute was extremely sloppy, "Then why did Her Royal Highness come in by herself again?"

He Xiaojin smiled slightly, "I heard that Miss Ning San is here, so I can't wait!" He Xiaojin turned to look at Hua Zhong, "This is the third Miss Ning's family, the hibiscus comes out of clear water, and it is natural to carve. Sure enough. She is a beautiful lady!"

Hua Zhong felt emotional for a moment, and said indifferently, "Princess concubine is ridiculous! I am ashamed to be a minister."

Hua Zhong knew that He Xiaojin had fallen in love with Ning Liuchen for many years, and had promised that he would not marry Ning Liuchen, and that he would rather die alone than marry someone who was not human!It's a pity that the sky is not beautiful, Ning Liuchen is high and aloof, unrestrained, and doesn't take her seriously at all.He Xiaojin was very sad, and when he heard that Emperor Cheng would bestow marriage to the crown prince, he wanted to die several times.Helplessly, with the lives of the entire He family on his back, he was forced to marry into the royal family.Now that he is so friendly to Hua Zhong, it must be because of Ning Liuchen's face.

"I heard that the third lady saved the ninth prince regardless of her own safety when the ninth prince was in danger." He Xiaojin smiled slightly. The emperor appreciates you very much. Presumably there will be a decree to reward you soon!"

Xinyang's face turned cold, "I don't know why the Crown Princess came here? I have talked with Miss Ning San for a long time, and now I am tired. Miss Ning San must return to the residence sooner. Please understand the Crown Princess! "

He Xiaojin smiled lightly, "Princess, I'm worrying too much. I didn't come here to question the princess. I just think that the princess's thoughts should not be placed on the prince. The prince is honest and honest, and his temperament is not smart. He is not as good as riding and shooting." The Sixth Highness is not as good as the Seventh Highness in terms of strategy, and even worse than the Ninth Highness in terms of talent. What the palace and the crown prince are looking for is a lifetime of peace, the princess must not push each other any more!"

Xinyang sneered, "The Crown Princess is overthinking! I have just dealt with the maid who chewed her tongue, and she will be sent back to the mansion of the culprit in a few days. Please also tell the Crown Prince that I have no intention of going against the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince Concubine can just go back to the East Palace to hear the news, there is really no need to come here."

He Xiaojin smiled lightly, and didn't want to say more, just said, "That's good! I'll go back to the palace first."

He Xiaojin turned around and looked at Hua Zhong again, her eyes were tender like water, "Miss San, are the newcomers in the house all right?"

Hua Zhong looked up at He Xiaojin, and the two looked at each other, and He Xiaojin's eyes were only frank and expectant.

After a while, Hua nodded emphatically, "It's all good! Don't worry about the princess."

"That's good!" He Xiaojin left with indifferent eyes, muttering something to himself.

Hua Zhong looked at He Xiaojin's back, and his heart sank.How would such a tender woman feel if she knew that Ning Liuchen was hanging around Liu Se, a famous prostitute in Yanzilou?Will you still be obsessed with it and be infatuated with it?
"Life is full of love and infatuation, this matter has nothing to do with the wind and the moon..." Hua Zhong looked back at Xinyang, the ethereal tone seemed to say something, but also seemed to be Hua Zhong's hallucination, scattered into the dust with the wind...
