Chu Bu She thought the princess' request was reasonable.
Hearing Chu Bu She's agreement, Princess Yu suddenly stood up, took off a golden hairpin from her head, tied it with a silk ribbon, and hung it by the window.
Next to the golden step-shaking ornament is the bell-shaped head ornament hanging from the brocade harp.
A gust of wind blew, and the golden step-shaking hairpin made a crisp sound different from that of a bell.
Chu Bu She understood what the woman meant and smiled:
"Row."
Chapter 48: Sleeping with a Beautiful Woman
After Chu Bushe left, Princess Yu intended to go back to the palace.
Jinse blinked her eyes and asked suspiciously, "Mother, where are you going?"
As soon as Chu Bushe left, his mother was about to go out. Jinse even suspected that she was trying to follow her secretly.
Princess Yu knew what her daughter was thinking and poked her forehead unhappily:
"Of course I'll go to the palace to get some information. How can I know what's going on if I don't ask Concubine Yin?"
Before leaving, Princess Yu did not forget to put the blood-stained smock into the brazier and burn it.
Although Chu Bu She said that he could take the smock away and get rid of it, the situation in the capital was so tense right now. If Chu Bu She went out and was searched and interrogated by the officials before he could deal with it, he would be exposed.
The royal family's clothes are easy to recognize. Not to mention the material, the embroidery patterns on them are not something that ordinary wealthy families can use.
"Princess, the carriage is ready and can be ready to go to the palace at any time."
Outside the door, the voice of the maid Qingye was heard. She was arranged by Concubine Yin. She was skilled in martial arts. Although she was not a famous master, she was more than qualified to be a guard.
"Okay, I'll come right away."
The princess, dressed elegantly and with a dignified temperament, walked out of her daughter's room.
When passing by the maid Aoba, Aoba sniffed in confusion. There was a smell of something burning?
Princess Yu had a body odor, so the faint smell of burning was particularly pungent and had nowhere to hide.
It is not the time to light a fire to keep warm at this time of the year. Even a pair of cool-sleeved shorts cannot dispel the afternoon heat.
After Qingye sent Princess Yu into the palace, she returned to the palace and gently knocked on the princess's door.
"My lady, I am here to clean the room."
"Well, Qingye, come in."
Jinse was holding a medical book that she had gotten from somewhere, and was flipping through it with a frown on her face. From time to time, she was practicing on her arm, trying to figure out how to apply medicine, and she ignored the maid.
After Aoba entered the room, he quickly found the used brazier.
"Princess, isn't it time to warm up by the fire?"
"When I was practicing calligraphy, my strokes were not good, so my handwriting turned out ugly. It was depressing to look at, so I burned them all."
Jinse brought out the words her mother had taught her and continued reading.
Qingye did not ask any more questions. She took the brazier away and poured out the ashes. There were indeed traces of pen, ink and paper in the ashes, but the bottom layer of burnt ashes did not look like paper ash.
......
......
In the imperial concubine's bedroom.
Concubine Yin was already preparing to go to bed, but when she heard that her sister Yu Ruojun was coming, she postponed her plan to turn off the lights and invited her to lie down with her at the table.
Concubine Yin was lying on the couch, the gauze on her body was as thin as a cicada's wing, and her plump and tender white legs were spread out.
The color of her legs is unique. Although her legs are also white and tender, they are more moist than those of ordinary women. Especially in the candlelight, her beautiful legs are like lotus flowers emerging from the water, with water droplets reflecting the light, which is attractive and eye-catching.
Concubine Yin looked at Yu Ruojun and did not stand up to greet her. She just lay on the bed, supporting her forehead with one arm. Her demeanor was lazy and charming, and even women would be dazed when seeing her.
"Ruojun, you came to see me so late, what can't we talk about tomorrow?"
"The second prince is dead. It's such a big deal, but we still don't know the identity of the murderer. I don't want to wait until tomorrow."
"Stay the night here, we'll talk."
"Well, can the snake..."
Yu Ruojun looked at the end of the bed in embarrassment.
Two long, white snakes were lurking there, with Concubine Yin's jade legs draped between them. At first glance, it was hard to tell which was the white snake and which was the white leg.
There was a small snow-white milk snake, its body coiled around Concubine Yin's delicate toes, looking very naughty.
Yu Ruojun is not used to lying with snakes. If she wakes up and finds a big snake swaying in front of her, she will be scared to death.
So what kind of hobby is this? Chu Bu She also likes big white snakes.
"Don't worry, they won't bite." Concubine Yin said with a comforting smile.
The beautiful princess overcame the slight fear in her heart, took off her dress, and left her blouse and bra hanging beside her. She was left with only two thin underwear, then she lay down and shared the pillow with Concubine Yin.
"What's the situation with the Second Prince?"
“We still don’t have any clues about his whereabouts. We only know that the person who did it must have unparalleled martial arts skills, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to do such a feat and kill the Second Prince and the two fierce guards together.
In the past, I tried every possible means to force the Second Prince to hand over the evil soldier, but I didn’t expect that even the evil soldier could not stop his death.”
The existence of the Xiongbingwei is very coveted and vigilant. Being able to control them is equivalent to having several top masters in the martial arts world to serve as your bodyguards and death warriors.
Ordinary people with great martial arts skills will not work loyally for others.
Yu Ruojun was relieved to learn that there was no follow-up, and then asked, "What is your Majesty's attitude?"
"How did you guess that His Majesty would react? He has been cultivating himself for such a long time."
"How could I not guess? You revealed this to me earlier. Your Majesty...was castrated by Empress Tianwu when he was a crown prince. Now the Second Prince is preparing to become the crown prince, and he died after being castrated. The news has spread."
This style of action seems to be a deliberate provocation and hint to the current emperor.
Concubine Yin nodded and said:
"Yes, the court was convened tonight. His Majesty rarely appeared in the court. He was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. Now, if there is any suspicion, the only one is the eldest prince, but he does not have that kind of background and cannot deal with the evil soldiers."
Yu Ruojun nodded, and her jade feet suddenly shrank, as if frightened, because the little snake licked her.
"My Lady, do you think it could be Chu Bu She? Isn't it said that he has extraordinary powers?"
"I don't know about that. There are rumors that he left the city during the day and returned to the capital very late. Time does not allow it. However, he was discussed in the morning court a few days ago."
"What did you talk about him?"
"When the boy who distributed wealth was involved, some ministers speculated whether he wanted to win over the hearts of the people in Chu and Liang states by doing so. But before the matter was discussed further, something happened to the second prince."
Princess Yu did not respond for a while. She felt relieved knowing that Chu Bushe was no longer under suspicion for the time being.
The two ladies on the bed closed their eyes and rested for a while. Yu Ruojun suddenly asked:
"My Lady, what kind of life do you want?"
"Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Concubine Yin replied without opening her eyes.
"Maybe it was the Double Ninth Festival, and I was idle at home, which aroused my melancholy feelings? When I was daydreaming, I found that I didn't know what kind of life I longed for."
“Not knowing is a good thing. Just enjoy this uncontrollable wealth and splendor.
If you have something in your heart, you will feel pain, especially when you can’t get it.”
......
The next morning.
Princess Yu left the palace and went back home. Her maid Qingye came to Concubine Yin.
"My Lady, I have something to report..."
Chapter 49: Isn’t PUA inappropriate?
In a daze, Si Qingyun opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, but her thoughts did not respond.
Not surprised, nor alarmed.
During her coma, she dreamed of many things from the past.
The descendants of the Western Expedition Army, due to genetic reasons, are likely to be good candidates for martial arts. After the king of Chuliangzhou was changed, these children became candidates for death squads.
At the time, the program was called Boy Scouting.
In order to survive, a group of children who were raised as Gu killed each other in a dark training camp to stimulate their potential.
Those who survived at such a young age must have their hands stained with the blood of their fellow villagers.
I have to say that this is really an excellent strategy. When the king and princes were first replaced, the people of Chuliangzhou were xenophobic and resisted the new king who had taken over the throne.
After the Boy Scout recruitment plan came out, the people of Chuliang discovered that their own children were beaten to death by other families. The hatred shifted to the neighbors and they forgot who the culprit was.
It was in such an environment that Si Qingyun's temperament gradually became dull, like a puppet. She gave up thinking and just obeyed orders.
But deep in her heart, she will still recall the warmth that her adoptive mother brought her.
Becoming a Xiongbingwei should be said to be her opportunity to wake up. It was the mental trauma brought about by the backlash that allowed Si Qingyun to regain some of her self.
But it seems to be of no avail.
The more she knew, the more she realized how little she knew.
She didn't even know who her enemy was. It seemed like it was everyone, yet it seemed like not all of them.
The stronger she became, the more she realized she was powerless.
A Yellow Dragon Mother Talisman was something she could hardly resist.
His mind went haywire and the image of himself pinching Chu Bushe's neck emerged in his memory. The feeling of his hand jumped into his palm, causing Si Qingyun to panic.
She sat up suddenly, looked around the room blankly, and accidentally knocked over the tea bowl beside the bed.
Snapped--
The tea bowl fell to the ground and broke, with fragments flying everywhere.
The noise attracted Chu Bu She's attention, and he appeared at the door of the room.
"Finally you've woken up. Now you're Si Qingyun herself, right?"
Chu Bushe still held the Yellow Dragon Mother Talisman in his hand, worried that Si Qingyun had not yet escaped from the state of being possessed.
However, Si Qingyun had no intention of making trouble. Her delicate face, which radiated a jade-like luster, was no longer cold and indifferent, but full of guilt and panic.
"I was pinching you...what happened next?"
Fortunately, you didn’t ask how you fainted.
Chu Bushi felt very guilty. He had been worrying about how to explain her dehydration and coma. Now that he found that Si Qingyun was not paying attention to this matter, he knew that there was room for maneuver!
"I guess when you were controlled by the vicious soldiers, you were still holding a grudge against me for what happened in the carriage, so you stabbed me in the waist with a dagger and almost pierced me through."
As he spoke, he tore open his clothes and showed her the wounds on his chest and back.
These injuries look scary, but they are actually not serious. For a warrior, it is a small problem as long as they do not break any bones.
After a rough display, Chu Bu She put on his clothes, not daring to let Si Qingyun take a closer look, as that would reveal his true intention.
"Fortunately, I prepared some expensive ointments, and with a few days of recovery, I have managed to survive and get through this close call."
"sorry......"
Si Qingyun lowered his head, like a child who was at a loss after realizing that he had done something wrong.
Seeing her self-blaming expression, Chu Bushe suddenly remembered that this girl was only one or two years younger than him, and was about the same age as the princess's daughter Jinse.
Previously, her cold attitude and ruthless methods made Chu Bu She ignore this point.
He hugged the doll girl's delicate body, gently stroked the back of her head with his big hands, and comforted her:
"It's okay. I know you must have a lot of resentment in your heart. You are the descendant of the Western Expedition Army, so you are my sister. I took those few stab wounds as a way to vent your anger. It's no big deal.
As a brother, why would I care about those few knives? Besides, you were controlled by the vicious soldiers at that time, it had nothing to do with you. "
