The Almighty Princess just wants to farm

Chapter 60 Knowing You Will Come

Liu Lin was a little overwhelmed by the sudden change. He obviously watched Dongfang Jiao drink the cup of tea. He also saw Dongfang Jiao come out of the banquet and come in this direction. How... why did he change it? Got married?

"This... this must be framed deliberately by someone. Dongfang Jiao and I obviously made an appointment to meet here. How... why did it suddenly change to Miss Xiao?"

"Have you made an appointment? Then, Mr. Liu, how did you meet my sister? And when did you make an appointment to meet here?"

Dongfang Li asked without giving up.

"I...we met when we were having dinner with Yuexuan. As for how to make an appointment, we...we naturally have our own methods."

Liu Lin held his neck and argued hard, but it was obvious that he lacked confidence.

"Young Master Liu Er, you keep saying that you made an appointment with your sister to meet here, but you did such a ridiculous thing without seeing clearly who the other party is. Can I think that Liu Er Is the young master just coveting Jiaojiao’s beauty instead of being in love with each other?”

"We... our male is unmarried and our female is unmarried. Shouldn't something happen if we are moved by love? Besides... besides, this is not the first time we have been together..."

As if he had found a reason to prove, Liu Lin glanced at Dongfang Li with disdain, his body no longer trembling as nervously as before.

"Liu Lin, do you know that lying in front of the king is the crime of deceiving the king."

Dongfang's glass eyes were sharp, and his whole body was exuding a cold air.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Dongfang Jiao to come over and confront you."

Liu Lin gave full play to his shameless spirit.

"Kings……"

Dongfang Li knelt in front of Nangong Hefeng.

"Miss Dongfang, what are you doing?"

Nangong Hefeng was watching the show enthusiastically, but Dongfang Li's kneeling immediately stunned him.

"Your Majesty, although there are no sons in the General's Palace, my father has served the country, but now his children are being humiliated in the palace. The daughter of the people asks the king to make the decision and seek justice for my sister Dongfang Jiao."

"...Miss Dongfang, the relationship between man and woman is most unclear. Now Mr. Liu has decided that he and Dongfang Jiao are already married, and now something like this has happened to Miss Xiao. It's really not good to be alone..." Decision..."

"The daughter of the people only asks the king to uphold justice."

"Dongfang Li, how do you want Gu to seek justice for you?"

Nangong Hefeng sat on the soft chair that Eunuch Li had just brought over, holding his forehead with one hand.

"Your Majesty, Second Young Master Liu insulted the Second Young Lady of the General's Mansion in front of Your Majesty and all the courtiers, and ruined his reputation. Your Majesty, please take a closer look."

"...Okay, if you can prove that what Liu Lin said is false, Gu will be severely punished."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

With Nangong Hefeng's permission, Dongfang Li stood up and ordered Qiulian.

"Qiulian, go pick up the second young lady."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty, I want to see my aunt. Please send someone to take the eldest princess into the palace to make decisions for me."

No matter how sad Xiao Mingyue was, she knew that only her aunt, the eldest princess of the Dadu Dynasty, could help her at this moment.

"I've sent someone to invite her. Queen, please arrange for someone to take her down to clean up first."

Nangong Hefeng raised his eyes and glanced at the queen.

"Yes, my concubine will make arrangements, so the king can rest assured."

The queen gave a gesture to the aunt in charge of her palace, and the aunt stepped forward and took Xiao Mingyue away temporarily.

Half an hour later, Qiulian and Dongshuang appeared with Dongfangjiao.

"Dongfang Jiao, the second daughter of the general's palace, has met the king, the queen, the concubine, and Prince Xu."

Dongfangjiao leaned forward and bowed politely.

"Exemption."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dongfang Jiao stood up and stood half a step behind Dongfang Li.

"Jiaojiao, do you know the young master kneeling in front of you?"

Dongfang Li took Dongfang Jiao's hand and pointed at Liu Lin, who was kneeling.

"Sister, I met this young master once when I was at Heyue Xuan a few days ago, but it would be a stretch to say that I know him."

"Only once?"

"Yes."

"Then why is there such a deep impression?"

Dongfang Li couldn't help but be a little curious.

"The last time I went to He Yuexuan, I was to pick up the pastries I ordered for my aunt. When I went there, the young man was teasing a woman. It was shopkeeper Mo who came forward to help the woman out. The young man was probably angry at the time. Yes, he bumped into my shoulder when he went out, so he had an impression of this young man."

Dongfang Jiao spoke softly and slowly.

"You're talking nonsense. It was obviously you who asked me to meet with Yuexuan that day..."

Liu Lin denied it.

"Jiaojiao, Mr. Liu just said that you and he made an appointment to meet here tonight, and claimed that you and him are already married. Is this true?"

Dongfang Li has gradually lost her patience. She doesn't want to listen to any of Liu Lin's sophistry.

puff~

Dongfang Jiao knelt directly on the ground.

"Eldest sister, our general's house is strict about family management. Although I am a concubine, I grew up under the careful guidance of my aunt. Since ancient times, marriage has been ordered by parents and matchmakers. Dongfangjiao definitely dare not violate it, let alone do such a thing. It’s a disgraceful thing.”

After Dongfang Jiao finished speaking, her head hit the ground with a bang, causing her forehead to bleed.

"Second Young Master Liu, what do you say now?"

Looking at Dongfang Jiao's bleeding wound, Dongfang Li's voice became deeper and deeper.

"How can you prove this kind of thing? Could it be that you want me to describe the situation at that time?"

"Bastard!"

Snapped……

Prime Minister Liu slapped Liu Lin on the face, and Liu Lin's face became red and swollen at that time.

"Your Majesty, others may not be able to prove their innocence, but the daughter of the Dongfang family can."

Dongfang Li said, directly rolling up the sleeve of his left hand, revealing a snow-white arm, with a blood-red cinnabar mole on it particularly obvious.

"Your Majesty, this is a cinnabar mole unique to our Dongfang family. When my daughter was born, she made it with cinnabar mixed with the blood of goldfish. She cut her arm and applied the cinnabar blood to the wound. After the wound healed, it would leave a pen mark. It will dissipate on its own after the wedding night.”

"It's also on the arms of civilian girls."

Dongfang Jiao then also rolled up the sleeve of her left hand, and a cinnabar mole stood out.

"Your Majesty, I have also read about this in ancient books, but I didn't expect that this ancient method would be used in General Dongfang's mansion."

The queen looked at Dongfang Li with a faint smile.

"In this case, Second Young Master Liu, Liu Lin, has been dishonest, deceived the emperor, and insulted people's innocence for no reason. From now on, he will sit in front of the wall in his mansion for three months and will never be admitted to the court."

Prime Minister Liu's power in the DPRK is getting stronger and stronger. Nangong and Feng Zhengchou have no reason to suppress him. Today's incident gave him enough reason.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please be merciful. This little kid is stupid. He must have been bewitched by a traitor to do such a deviant thing. Please be more careful, Your Majesty..."

Prime Minister Liu knelt in front of Nangong Hefeng and prayed for leniency.

"Xiang Liu, now I'm just punishing him with a small punishment and a big warning. When the princess arrives, I'm afraid Xiao Mingyue will..."

"What a sin... what a sin..."

Prime Minister Liu stared blankly in one direction, his expression suddenly seemed a little old.

Because the incident happened suddenly, after settling Dongfang Jiao's matter, Nangong Hefeng broke up the palace banquet and everyone left the palace.

On the carriage, Dongfang Li patted Dongfang Jiao's hand with distress.

"Jiaojiao, I know you were wronged in what happened today. Under the circumstances, I could only save the reputation of the General's Mansion first. Don't worry, my sister will definitely avenge you and let those who insult you be punished. There are punishments.”

"Sister, I know the seriousness. It's thanks to my sister that I can sit here properly today. If I was really insulted by him, I'm afraid I won't be able to see my father and aunt again."

Whenever Dongfang Jiao thinks of such a scene, her whole body will tremble, and her tears will start to flow uncontrollably.

"Okay, it's all over. As long as I'm here, no one can bully you."

Dongfang Li hugged Dongfang Jiao and patted her shoulder gently.

After all, he was young and had never experienced anything. It was normal for him to be frightened when this happened today.

……

At night, in the side garden of the General's Mansion, Dongfang Li was already lying on the bed. He heard the window lattice move slightly, and a tall figure appeared in the room.

"Your Majesty is getting better and better at climbing over walls."

The person who came in through the window was none other than Nangong Xu.

"Did I wake you up?"

"I knew you would come..." So I'm waiting for you.

"What do you think of what happened today?"

Nangong Xu skillfully walked to the clothes rack, took off the hanging cloak, put it on Dongfang Li's body, and tied the belt carefully.

"Liu Lin is just a expendable chess piece. The imperial concubine intends to bring people there. It must have been arranged in advance. As for Xiao Mingyue..."

Dongfang Li squinted her eyes and looked at Nangong Xu who was drinking water.

"Ali, what are you looking at me for?"

“Isn’t it the prince’s helping hand?”

"Nothing can be hidden from Ali...Yes, I asked people to do it."

"The reason?"

"Just by chance."

"All coincidences in this world are intentional actions by thoughtful people."

Dongfang Li sat on the stool closest to Nangong Xu, picked up his water glass and took a sip of water.

"How did the eldest princess handle Xiao Mingyue's matter?"

"How else can we deal with it? We are happy with each other and choose a day to get married."

This is a common method used in the palace.

"Xiao Mingyue is willing?"

Dongfang Li didn't believe it.

"It's up to the eldest princess to decide whether she wants to or not. She has no choice."

Nangong Xu picked up the water glass and took a sip of water from where Dongfang Li had just drank.

"childish."

Dongfang Li murmured in her heart, she naturally saw what he just did.

"In the past few days, I asked Xunjian to sort out the relationships between the various court officials in Dadu. I will have them sent over later so that Ali can take a closer look."

"It's what I did today, what's wrong with it?"

"It's not inappropriate, it's just that the treatment of Mr. Liu Er was a bit too perfunctory."

Nangong Xu wanted to speak out, but was stopped by Dongfang Li's look.

“Dogs that bark don’t bite.”

"What did Ali do?"

"Look at what the prince said, what can I, a little girl, do?"

He didn't do anything, but three months later, when Liu Lin could go out, he found that he was no longer interested in any woman. Of course, this is a story later.

"Your Majesty, it's time to go back."

Dongfang Li yawned and started chasing people away.

"I watched Ali fall asleep before leaving."

"I can't sleep until you leave."

"Ali……"

In the end, Dongfang Li still couldn't turn Nangong Xu away, and lay on the bed obediently, smelling the pine scent of his body mixed with the smell of herbs, and gradually fell asleep.

"Ali, I won't let anyone bully you."

Nangong Xu placed a gentle kiss on the sleeping Dongfang Li's forehead and left quietly.

However, just after he left, Dongfang Li, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, slowly opened her eyes, raised her hand and touched the spot where he had kissed her, and a faint smile slowly crept up the corner of her mouth.

Prince Xu's Mansion

In a temporary study room, Xunjian was sorting out the relationship network of everyone in the court. Some elders from the three dynasties were still there, so the relationships were complicated, intertwined, and even affected the whole body.

"How's it going?"

Nangong Xu is looking at the information sent from all parties today.

"Back to my lord, it's almost done, but there are still some hidden stakes and some unused chess pieces."

Xunjian raised his head from the thick book and replied, continuing to bury his head in sorting.

"Your Majesty, the things you told us before have been taken care of, and things are going in the direction we expected."

Xunyu appeared at the door of the study wearing black night clothes.

"Well, you've worked hard, go down and rest. You can go and rest too."

The last sentence is said to Xun Jian.

"Subordinates retire."

"Subordinates retire."

Nangong Xu was the only one left in the temporary study. He leaned on the back of his chair and looked in the direction of Chaochen Pavilion in trance.

"Ali...I only have you now..."

--

What happened in the palace during the day was spread throughout the streets of the imperial capital the next day.

Every restaurant and wine shop was whispering about this matter.

"Hey... have you heard? The eldest princess's niece had an affair with the second son of the prime minister's family at the palace banquet."

"Don't say this nonsense. If you get caught, your head will fall off."

"This matter is being spread throughout the imperial capital. It cannot be false."

"Yes, you said they are really brave. I heard that when they were discovered, the two of them were having an affair. Tsk tsk..."

"Isn't that true? I heard that when the eldest princess found out, her face was so angry that she became deformed."

Dongfang Li sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in her yard, quietly listening to Chunlu talking about things outside.

"Miss, why do you think Xiao Mingyue still has the nerve to come out to meet people?"

Chunlu couldn't help but sympathize with Xiao Mingyue.

"Okay, how to get out and how to meet people are not things we need to consider. What we need to consider now is how to have fun in the Bamboo Garden this time."

Dongfang Li tapped Chunlu on the head with the fan in her hand to tell her not to think nonsense.

"Miss, this time I went to Zhuyuan. In addition to several ladies, the prince also sent me several famous invitations."

Dongshuang came over with a few plates of snacks.

"When was it delivered?"

"Xunyu sent it here this morning."

"Okay, since it was sent by the prince, let's send the post as well."

Dongfang Li took a piece of snack and put it into his mouth.

"Huh? It's not from our house, and it doesn't look like He Yuexuan's. Where did the snacks come from?"

Dongfang Li tasted the difference in dim sum with just one bite.

"Miss, Xunyu sent this along with the name card this morning. From what he said, it seems that a mother-in-law sent it to the prince's palace. The prince directly asked him to deliver it to us."

Dongfang Li knew as soon as he heard that this snack should be made by Granny Hua.

"It looks like you will get something different from going to the Bamboo Garden this time."
