Quick Wear: Bai Yueguang perfectly interprets the success of saving the world
Chapter 3 Princess (2)
Pei Shiyu saw that Yan Qing remained silent for a long time when the eunuch mentioned the Queen of Zhenbei. He seemed to be lost in thought and did not notice this side.
His eyelashes drooped slightly, hiding the coldness in his eyes, and there was no trace of his previous helplessness and immaturity.
It's the King of Zhenbei again...
Perhaps even my aunt herself didn't realize that every time she mentioned the King of Zhenbei, she would inadvertently reveal a little difference. How could that person distract my aunt?
Pei Shiyu closed his eyes and opened them again. No, he couldn't think too much.
My aunt must be thinking of a strategy for Prince Zhenbei to return to Beijing early. It is impossible for her to show mercy to him just because of their youthful friendship.
Auntie said she would always protect him...
Even though he was convincing himself like this, Pei Shiyu still couldn't help but interrupt Yan Qing who was still in a trance: "Aunt, is there any conspiracy behind Uncle Wang's early return to Beijing?"
The young man's voice was somewhat cautious and tentative. When he looked up, his eyes were already filled with worry and trust in Yan Qing.
Yan Qing had just asked the system to check the plot before and after the male protagonist returned to Beijing. Everything was going according to the original plot and no special abnormalities were found.
Hearing Pei Shiyu's voice, she suppressed her complicated thoughts and stood up and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to take care of everything. Since the King of Zhenbei is almost at the city gate, Your Majesty should go back to the palace to prepare."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at the eunuch who was still kneeling beside her waiting for instructions, and said in a light tone: "Get up, is the carriage ready for your Majesty to return to the palace?"
"Your Highness, the carriage is already waiting outside the Princess's residence."
Although the eunuch had stood up, he still kept his brows lowered and did not dare to look up.
Yan Qing nodded slightly, "Send someone to deliver a message to the residences of the lords in the name of His Majesty, asking them to go to the Golden Palace as soon as possible to discuss matters."
The eunuch secretly glanced at Pei Shiyu's expression, and when he saw him nod imperceptibly, he replied, "I obey your orders."
After saying this, he bowed and took his leave and went to arrange personnel.
Yan Qing put the heater aside, gathered the fur around her fox fur coat, and said to Pei Shiyu, "This is a serious matter. I will go with His Majesty."
Pei Shiyu clenched his hands in his sleeves, his face showing even more worry, "Aunt's health..."
It's hard to explain why, but he doesn't want his aunt to meet the King of Zhenbei.
"It's all clear now. This matter is of great importance. It's time to go meet the King of Zhenbei."
It seemed that the worry on Pei Shiyu's face was too obvious. Yan Qing smiled, softened his tone, and no longer called him "Your Majesty".
"The King of Zhenbei has been leading troops in battles for many years, and his mind is treacherous. I am still worried about you going alone."
Pei Shiyu's clenched hands loosened quietly, and he responded obediently: "I'll listen to my aunt."
While they were talking, they walked outside the palace. After the two of them got on the carriage, the secret guard driving the carriage immediately whipped the horse and drove towards the palace.
Fortunately, the princess's residence was not far from the imperial palace, and the carriage arrived at the palace gate in a short while.
The secret guard took out the token that he had prepared long ago and handed it to the soldier guarding the gate, and let the soldier pass after checking the token.
Not long after the carriage entered the palace, Yan Qing glanced at Pei Shiyu's casual clothes and said to the secret guard driving outside, "This place is not far from the Golden Throne Hall. Just drop me off here and send your Majesty to the bedroom to change clothes first."
The secret guard stopped the car in response. Pei Shiyu had no objection, thinking that he would meet the King of Zhenbei and receive ministers later.
After Yan Qing got off the carriage, it quickly headed towards the emperor's bedroom...
In the Golden Palace:
After receiving the message from the emperor, several ministers who arrived first stepped into the hall. The voices that were originally chatting suddenly fell silent because they met acquaintances.
I saw a person sitting on the only seat on the right side under the dragon throne besides the dragon throne.
The man supported his forehead with one hand, his eyes half closed, as if he was resting.
Hearing the movement of the people coming, Yan Qing raised his eyes slightly, without standing up, but nodded to the ministers who rushed in: "Grand Tutor Yang, Minister Cui, and Minister He."
Several people just woke up from a dream and bowed one after another: "Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Yan Qing raised his hand: "No need to be polite."
The three of them stood up and took the same seats as when they attended court.
The atmosphere in the hall was silent for a while, and Minister He could not help asking, "I heard that Your Highness was not feeling well, and I have been wanting to go and see him."
"Unfortunately, the court was busy and I never went to visit you. I hope Your Highness is doing well now."
Yan Qing replied calmly: "Thank you for your concern, Minister He. I am fine now."
After his words were blocked in such a gentle tone, Minister He looked a little uncomfortable, but he didn't know how to bring up the topic again.
On the other hand, Grand Tutor Yang stroked his beard and said, "Today is a day off, but His Majesty sent someone to tell us to come to the Golden Palace, but he didn't say what happened. Does Your Majesty know what happened?"
Yan Qing glanced at Master Yang with a half-smile. She didn't believe that this old fox hadn't received the news that Prince Zhenbei had returned to the capital.
He said this now probably to confirm the truth of the news and her and the little emperor's attitude towards the King of Zhenbei, so that he could sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers.
But there is nothing wrong with saying this. Revealing a little bit will help them calm down during the time when the little emperor is here.
When she came over, Pei Shiyu was beside her and she had not taken the medicine yet, so...it was not convenient for him to see the medicine.
This body can't hold out for much longer. Calculating the time, Prince Zhenbei will soon be entering the palace. The remaining energy must be reserved for dealing with Prince Zhenbei. There is no extra energy to pretend to be nice to them.
"Prince Zhenbei has returned to Beijing ahead of schedule."
Upon hearing that the news was confirmed, a gleam of light flashed in Taifu Yang's eyes, and he winked at Shangshu He.
The latter immediately understood and said, "Your Highness, the King of Zhenbei has already arrived in the capital as soon as the war stopped. I'm afraid he has other intentions."
Cui Shizhong, who was originally calm and composed, also said: "Your Highness, the King of Zhenbei has evil ambitions, so you must not be careless."
Yan Qing ignored their true or false inquiries and did not answer, but just tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingertips.
After they calmed down, he slowly said, "My Lords, please do not speculate. We will discuss this matter after His Majesty arrives."
Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep again, no longer paying attention to the expressions on their faces.
Seeing that Yan Qing stopped talking, the rest of the people also stopped talking, each thinking about something.
The ministers who came in later were still wondering why the Golden Palace was so quiet today.
When he looked up, he saw Yan Qing dozing off on a chair that had been vacant for about a month. He also saw that the adults who had arrived earlier were standing quietly in their respective seats with their eyes lowered in thought.
Their hearts tightened for a moment, and then they slowly relaxed.
During this month, the princess announced that she had caught a cold and had not appeared in public.
This was the first time since the young emperor ascended the throne that he had been away from the court for such a long time. Moreover, it was at the critical moment of the attack on the north, and people in the court were in panic.
There were many guessers during that period, and all kinds of things were said. The specific situation was unknown, and it was not something they could participate in.
However, judging from the princess's slightly pale face, she might have caught a cold.
Not daring to think any further, they all bowed to Yan Qing, and after receiving a nod from him, they stood up and returned to their original positions. The hall once again returned to silence...
