Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 166 Not relatives, not friends
"Since Zhenbei Hou's daughter is keeping her filial piety, let's take this matter slowly." Emperor Beiling waved his hand and frowned.
Lin Wan's eyes were sharp. When he saw this, he immediately changed his mind and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I have recently accompanied the Queen Mother in reciting scriptures and learned a lot of Buddhism. The Marquis of Zhenbei is our great meritorious official.
My wife is also a meritorious official of the country. I want to take the chair with me to chant sutras and pray for Mrs. Zhenbei Hou, which is also a token of my sincerity. "
When Jiang Xue heard this, she realized that the imperial concubine even resorted to chanting sutras in order to attract her cousin into the palace. She really spared no effort.
It's no wonder that Xiao Li's side is An Guohou, who has a military background, while Xiao Yan's side is full of civil servants, and none of them can fight.
In a head-to-head confrontation, Xiao Yan, without the support of military commanders, will definitely suffer! So Lin Wan was eager to win over his uncle.
When Emperor Beiling heard this, he raised his eyebrows and praised Lin Wan's move!
This is a great move! He could not only contain the Marquis of Zhenbei, but also tie up Lu Changfeng tightly!
"Wan'er said it well! It's all thanks to you two!"
Emperor Beiling made the final decision, and Marquis Zhenbei didn't even have a chance to refute.
The banquet was over, and the Marquis of Zhenbei frowned even more tightly.
On the way out of the palace, the imperial concubine asked her personal female officer to present the jade token for entering and exiting the palace in public. This was a cruel move.
After receiving the jade token, Lu Linyi had to go to the palace to see Lin Wan every day.
Lu Linyi stared at the jade plaque in trance, and the Marquis of Zhenbei also had a heavy look on his face.
He knew in his heart that there would be no peace in the capital, and he had guessed it when the emperor asked him to bring his family back. I was just lucky, hoping that the emperor would be lenient and let Linyi go.
But luck is luck after all, and what should come will come.
Jiang Xue saw through the thoughts of father and daughter and stepped forward to say hello: "Uncle, cousin."
After leaving the palace gate, there was naturally no need to be too restrained, and the titles were much more intimate.
"Changle." Zhenbei Hou looked at his beloved niece, with a bitterness hidden in his smile.
Going home today was a good day for reunion, but the emperor's trick made people feel anxious.
"Uncle must be having a headache over the imperial concubine's invitation."
"Alas." The Marquis of Zhenbei sighed: "The Imperial Concubine is very thoughtful. This child Linyi grew up on the border with me. If you really want to play tricks, who is her opponent..."
If Madam was still there, Linyi would be taken care of when he entered the palace. Now he could only rely on her, so Zhenbei Hou could not rest assured.
"Uncle, don't worry. I will accompany my cousin when she enters the palace." Jiang Xue was also worried that Lu Linyi would enter the palace alone. People inside were complicated. Especially those high-ranking empresses, who didn’t work hard to secure their position?
Even though they look delicate, they are ruthless characters at heart. If you really send this little white rabbit like Lu Linyi in, there won't be any scraps left if you don't get eaten! Hearing what Jiang Xue said, Zhenbei Hou's worries eased a little.
After all, Jiang Xue has been in the capital for a year, so she should know the rules, and the palace's secret help must be dignified. He is a child who knows how to behave. With her taking Linqi with her, it should be no problem.
"Chang Le." Jun Li's voice suddenly came from behind, and Jiang Xue frowned slightly.
The Marquis of Zhenbei and Lu Linyi also turned their heads. It was inappropriate to call a woman by her name in public. What was the idea of Prince Xichen?
At the entrance of the palace, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yun passed by. Seeing this, they stopped and observed quietly.
"Prince Xichen, Chang Le said that it is inappropriate for you and me to address you like this. Please pay attention to your etiquette." Jiang Xue reminded Jun Li for the second time. Although there was no anger on his face, his words were a bit serious.
Prince Xichen was a hostage sent by a small country affiliated with Beiling. He was entangled with him when they met at a banquet when they first came to Beiling.
"Changle, are you still arguing with me?"
Jun Li hid his dissatisfaction, but his eyes were full of affection. To others, it looked like a young couple was having a conflict, and the man was trying to make the woman happy.
Having trouble? Jiang Xue sneered in her heart, so Jun Li thought she was deliberately playing hard to get to attract his attention?
"Your Highness is joking. We have no relationship. How could you be so angry? Changle is just thinking about His Highness and his own reputation."
Acting out this play in front of your uncle, Jun Li, isn't it because you want your uncle to misunderstand that we are in love, so that you can win over him and do your best?
I am not as happy as you want! This sentence of "no connection" simply ended Junli's dream, and at the same time, he secretly told Zhenbei Hou that this person was unreliable!
"Your Highness, Chang Le is right. Beiling emphasizes the distinction between men and women. Your Highness and Chang Le are not relatives, so it is inappropriate to call her by her given name at will. Your Highness, please respect yourself."
The Marquis of Zhenbei saw Jiang Xue's attitude. Prince Xichen was untrustworthy and his words were rude.
He stepped forward and stood next to Jiang Xue to be her strong backing.
"What the Marquis said is that Jun Li was indeed rude. Princess Changle, please forgive me."
The Marquis of Zhenbei was an important minister of Beiling. Junli did not dare to confront a hostage, and he had to apologize with a smile if he was dissatisfied.
"Your Highness, please be careful from now on." Jiang Xue glanced at Jun Li and was about to leave, but stopped her in front of her with one arm.
Xiaochun behind him immediately stepped away from Junli: "What does Your Highness want to do?"
"Princess, don't get me wrong. I don't mean any harm. I just want to talk to the princess in private about something."
Withdrawing his hand, Junli glanced at Lu Linyi.
Entrusted by Xiao Yan, he came to Jiang Xue for help.
How could Jiang Xue slip away before he agreed?
"Oh? I wonder what's wrong, Your Highness?"
I don’t want to go to the Three Treasures Palace because I am afraid that I want to bring Xiao Yan and my cousin together.
Jiang Xue knew Jun Li's plan, but she didn't say it clearly. She only said: "Your Highness should know that the people in Yujing are very mixed-minded. If I say more than a few words to Your Highness at the banquet, I will be misunderstood. If I talk to you alone today, I am afraid it will be rumored. Moreover. , the fifth princess is still here.
Jiang Xue has not been idle this year. He has already figured out the interpersonal relationships in the palace.
As he spoke, he glanced at a luxurious carriage not far away.
Under the car window, standing was Xiao Min's personal maid Xi Yan. Jun Li's eyes darkened slightly, thinking that Xiao Min is really annoying. Ever since they met at the banquet, wherever he appears, there must be her shadow. It's really annoying!
"If your Highness really has something important, why not just say it here."
She wanted to see what Jun Li could say under her uncle's nose.
"Hey, Fourth Brother, I think this Princess Changle is as naughty as you. She knows that Jun Li's words are not suitable to be spoken in front of the Marquis of Zhenbei, but she still lets others speak."
Xiao Yun looked at Xiao Zhan with a smile as he spoke. It had to be said that Chang Le's cunning look was somewhat similar to that of the fourth child.
"How could anyone harm his brother like this?"
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly and joked: "I think you have had enough rest these days. How about you help me solve the Shuoyue Gate matter?"
When Xiao Yun heard this, his scalp went numb: "Oh, Fourth Brother, am I not joking? Don't..."
The master of Shuoyue Gate was notoriously difficult to deal with, so it was only the fourth brother who had a good reputation and could speak his mind.
Besides, this time the emperor personally ordered the cleanup of Shuoyue Gate. If he really wanted to get involved, Nangong Yue would have to skin him!
For the sake of his own life, he had better admit defeat.
"Don't worry, I've already said hello. Nangong shouldn't embarrass you too much."
Xiao Zhan looked like the matter was settled just like that, and patted his bitter eighth brother on the shoulder.
His eyes did not stay on Xiao Yun at all, but turned to Jiang Xue.
