Fall In Love With A Substitute

Chapter 35 The Princess' Little Wife

Song Pianxuan sat back on the bed again, seeing that Feng Yuexian had collected her thoughts and returned to the aura of a cold beauty, she went straight to find something to say before she opened her mouth:

"Have your people been stopped outside the palace?"

"They know how to fight, they are afraid of disturbing the nobles, so they all stayed in the general's residence." Feng Yuexian said calmly.

Song Pianyi didn't understand what she meant. She must have been blocked by the officials or the old general. After all, the prince is weak, and the husband is weak and the wife is strong.

"There is no shortage of people in the palace, but it's better to let them in tomorrow."

Song Pianlu smiled, her voice still had the sweetness of a young girl who hadn't faded, but said calmly:

"Husband and wife are one body. Although we are not a husband and wife, and I am not the emperor's brother, but since we talk about forming an alliance, there is no need to avoid it everywhere."

"In the old days, Yuexian, you just took it as the General's Mansion, and you can ask Xu Jing whatever you want."

Do you want to finalize the alliance after Xiaoxiao sells well?

Feng Yuexian laughed in her heart, but she didn't argue to the end.

There was nothing to argue about. Ever since the King of Chu used tricks to make the old emperor fear the General's Mansion, the General's Mansion and the Chu King's party were clearly separated from each other in the court.

What happened tonight was too sudden, beyond her expectations. She never expected that the prince who tried his best to keep the court in check had gone, leaving behind Song Pianlu, who was quick-spoken but ignorant of government affairs.

If the news leaks out, the king of Chu is ambitious and will find a reason to enter Beijing from southern Yunnan, or—

No matter what, it's not a good thing for the Feng family.

Now, it is imperative to save this "prince".

That being the case, the convenience given by the other party is accepted.

"Thank you, Prince." Feng Yue said leisurely, his voice was naturally cold, like a winter snow spring brushing against the rocks of a stream, rushing down.

Feng Yue casually called her "Prince", Song Pianlu felt relieved, and her smile was much more sincere:

"Why should I say thank you?"

Haste makes waste, Song Pianlu knew that today's progress was enough, Feng Yuexian was still on the defensive, now only because of the same interests, he stood with him.

She thought about it and said:

"On the day of the wedding, we were supposed to share the same bed. The King of Chu may not know the news that the Crown Prince is seriously ill. It stands to reason that it would be safer to keep you in the main hall to rest. We can hide the matter of the Crown Prince's serious illness. But..."

Feng Yuexian flicked his sleeves, poured himself a bowl of tea, and sipped lightly:

"But so what?"

"But if the relationship between you and me is too good, I'm afraid that the king of Chu will be afraid of you and me joining forces." Song Pianlu said while thinking, with a slow tone, "What does Yuexian think?"

"It makes sense." Feng Yuexian nodded, but there was a half-smile on his face, a pair of clear and beautiful eyes brushed across Song Pianlian's face.

This is another story.

Song Pianlu quietly waited for her next sentence.

"I am the first-rank general's concubine daughter. On the day of our wedding, I lived in a separate room with my husband. If it is spread outside, it will be treated as a joke again." Feng Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why, the princess wants to see me suffer again. ridicule?"

Song Pianlu was dumb, Feng Yuexian really held grudges.

"Of course not."

Feng Yuexian moved his hands slightly, and put the teacup on the table. His voice was undeniable, yet soft, and his smile was as light as mist:

"Then please prince, give me some dignity."

In front of the gate of the East Palace and in front of the long corridor, there were many palace servants standing with their hands tied, headed by Xue Qing and Xu Li, originally Xu Jing would also stay, but Xue Qing safely carried out the order of the new lord, and asked the two little eunuchs to send Xu Jing back to rest up.

After waiting for a cup of tea, Xu Li's eyes moved slightly, and he said to Xue Qing:

"Sister Xueqing, the Crown Princess hasn't used anything yet, so I'll bring some supper for you."

"I have ordered the kitchenette to make it."

Xu Li choked up, and said, "Then I'll take someone to pick me up myself, and I won't bother my sisters to go."

"The prince asked you to wait and serve." Xue Qing gave him a serious look, and said, "What's the matter with you, you must leave?"

After all, Xue Qing was born as a secret guard, and her vigilance was so high that Xu Li dared not move any more, saying: "Sister, what you said is—"

Suddenly someone in the hall called out:

"Let's all come in."

Xue Qing led the crowd to file in. Seeing that the master was about to rest, Xue Qing commanded in an orderly manner.

Prepare the soup pool, cut candle flowers, replace with new tea, serve supper, and help the princess change clothes. Dozens of palace attendants walk around the hall, creating a lively atmosphere.

There were a lot of beautiful things in the supper, Feng Yuexian was indeed hungry for a long time without eating, and his stomach was empty.

She eats no more than the delicate ladies, but eats less than birds.I used a full cup of white fungus soup, tasted fresh mushroom cabbage, pearl tofu, diced Shouwu chicken and fish fillet in milk sauce, and finally ate a piece of chestnut cake.

She tasted the spring green of Yanghe River and looked at Song Pianliu.

Song Pianlu was not hungry at first, but Xueqing was meticulous and made a backup for her. This princess is quite a spoiled servant, so she spent some time with Feng Yue.

He didn't touch any meat dishes, he took two mouthfuls of vegetarian dishes and drank half a cup of sticky thick rice soup.

"The prince usually likes to use rice soup?" Feng Yue said leisurely.

Song Pina swallowed the rice soup, put down the bowl lightly, and said: "Rice soup is sweet and flat in nature, nourishing yin and increasing strength."

"Can you use ginseng soup?"

"Old ginseng does nourish qi and blood, but it's not easy to use it when your body is too weak." Song Pianli said patiently.

Feng Yuexian is full of tea and food, showing a little satiety, like a big cat that is full, its shiny fur is much softer, its lips are naturally smiling, its human face is full of peach blossoms.

The palace attendant has long been accustomed to the prince's appearance, but it is rare to see such a beauty, like a bright pearl shining in the room, sitting there dazzles people's eyes, making the palace attendant unable to look at her, but afraid of the majesty, not daring to look directly at her.

Xu Li stood behind Song Pianju, and when the two of them were talking, he could see the face of the Crown Princess clearly, and even he, an eunuch, couldn't stop his heart from shaking.

After Song Pianlu replied, Feng Yuexian followed closely:

"Do you need medicinal food on weekdays?"

Song Pianjue was wiping the corners of her lips, but before she could answer, Xu Li intentionally showed it off, and said:

"Aunt Fangruo is good at medicinal food, and now in the small kitchen, they are all made according to the recipes she left behind. It is very good for the crown prince to use it."

He smiled and bowed, guessing what the princess wanted to ask, and even prepared the answer in his stomach, waiting to be rewarded by the nobleman.

But he looked at the gold brick ground, but couldn't wait for the sound.

Xu Li grew up in the palace, so he didn't realize it immediately, his smile froze at the corners of his lips, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up.

"I'm talking to the prince, so it's your turn to intervene?"

It was still the slightly cold but tickling voice, but in Xu Li's ears, it was like a cane punishment, which bent his knees immediately, fell to his knees with a plop, and said in a trembling voice:

"The slave is guilty, please forgive the princess."

Feng Yue put down the tea bowl, and there was a soft sound, which made Xu Li excited again.

Her eyes turned from Xu Li to Song Pianliao's smiling face, her eyes darkened slightly.

"This person has no rules, he doesn't know how to be superior or inferior, he doesn't pay attention to his master, and makes jokes, can you leave it to me?"

"This……"

"If it's not possible, I'm always unhappy." Feng Yue smiled lazily, but there was no smile in her eyes, "I hope the crown prince will agree."

"Prince Princess forgive me! Crown Princess forgive me!" Xu Li panicked and kowtowed repeatedly.

The palace servants next to him all stopped their movements and stood there with their hands tied, silent like a cicada.

The princess concubine was so domineering that she used her prestige on the night of her wedding and took Xu Li, the prince's close attendant, under the knife!

In the fear of the palace attendants, the prince seemed very helpless, and compromised:

"It's up to you."

The palace servants were fighting with each other, secretly took a breath, and watched helplessly as the princess called the imperial guards to take away Xu Li who kept shouting, not knowing what would happen.

At this time, they remembered that this stunning beauty was from the General's Mansion, she was ruthless, and dared to persecute the crown prince today, what else would she not dare to do.

Xu Li fell into her hands, so it would be great if he could save his life!

The palace attendant's movements became lighter and more cautious, no one dared to make any noise, let alone interrupt.

A palace servant was too timid, and accidentally made a crisp sound when changing the pastry on the table, and immediately fell to his knees in fright.

But seeing Feng Yue idle with his book in his hands, he didn't even look at himself, until he was disturbed by her prostration, then he glanced at her lazily and let her go down.

The palace servant could not help but be overjoyed when he recovered his life.

Other colleagues who watched secretly concluded that the princess was not only cruel, but also moody.

After Xueqing took someone to make the bed, the two went to bed.

The canopy bed is extremely spacious, and it is not a problem to sleep three or four people side by side. There is no physical contact at all.

Song Pianlu has no psychological burden, so she just sleeps on tatami with her friends.

The gold thread jacquard tulle bed curtain was lowered, and the red candle outside was burning brightly, sending light into the tent vaguely.

The prince felt shallow, Xueqing gently blew out the glazed lamp, and quietly retreated to the outer couch to guard.

Originally they were talking about letting Feng Yuexian go to the west hall, but now they have become sharing the same bed.Although Xueqing obeyed, she was very afraid that the princess' daughter would be discovered.

Now she finally understood why the princess asked Xu Jing to rest first, so that no one could hinder her from doing things.

Thinking of this, Xue Qing couldn't help sighing again, these noble people are really born with exquisite hearts, even princesses who don't know much about the world are like this.

Inside the bed tent.

Song Pianlu had already laid down comfortably, the little quilt was covered meticulously, wrapped in a crispy rice cake that looked like Zhou Zheng.

She said she would just go to bed when she went to sleep, without thinking about it at all.

If you sleep well at night, you will have the energy to do things during the day, especially if your body is not working well, so you should pay more attention to health preservation.

Feng Yuexian next to him looked at the crispy rice cake next to him, his thoughts drifted away slightly.

"How did you know that Xu Li is different?"

Song Pianliu didn't even open her eyes, and said: "I talked to Brother Huang earlier, and he told me that Xu Li is not trustworthy."

"Now he has learned that I am a fake prince, so he can't stay."

Speaking of this, Song Pianlu slightly bent her lips, her face as white as gentle jade showed a trace of pure beauty like a girl:

"The person behind it will be entrusted to you to investigate."

This makes sense, Feng Yue Xian thought, anyway, the prince is no longer alive, and she can't prove it.

"It's easy for you."

Song Pianlu smiled, fell asleep and didn't speak anymore.

In the original development, the original body didn't know anything about Xu Li, and it was also Feng Yue's idle hands who cleared up the matter.

Otherwise, the fact that the prince has died will be known to everyone the next day.

For this reason, Yuan Shen and Xu Jing's misunderstanding of her deepened, and the relationship further deteriorated.

This time, Song Pianxue took the initiative to mention that although Feng Yuexian still had a bad reputation due to her own image problems, for the sake of the overall situation, she had to create momentum like this.

On Xu Jing's side, she will explain, to maintain the internal stability of the cooperation...

Song Pianlu was thinking about what to do, and gradually fell into a dream.

Feng Yuexian looked at her, unable to believe that she fell asleep just like that——

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore and sleep, why is Song Pianlu not vigilant at all?

But this proved that she trusted herself from the bottom of her heart.

The Crown Princess Feng Yuexian, who was regarded as a safe figure, was in extremely complicated mood.

She looked at the lotus noodles on the rice cake strips, smelled the sweet fragrance of her daughter in the tent, and listened to the other party's even breathing...

Before he knew it, he also fell asleep.

The next day, Song Pianju got up, but Feng Yuexian was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Jing had been waiting outside for half an hour, and Song Pianlu called him in after learning about it.

Xu Jing was full of anxiety: "Princess, what are you doing - have you ever been discovered by the Crown Princess? Where has Xu Li been taken by the Crown Princess?"

"I have informed the crown princess of my identity." Song Pianlu said straight.

Xu Jing almost didn't go over on the spot.

"How can you tell the Feng family so easily!"

"Why not." Song Pianliu's voice was not loud, but she was as steady as a rock. She glanced at Xu Jing with deep eyes, and successfully shut him up.

"Feng Yuexian is very smart, and there are many people in the palace about her, so we can only hide it for a while, but not forever."

"It's only a moment to be able to hide it for a while."

"If she doesn't tell me frankly, she will be so guarded, and she won't trust me." Song Pianlu said with emphasis.

Xu Jing was taken aback.

"Brother Huang said that I want the Palace to trust her." Song Pianlu said in a gentle tone, "As for Xu Li, Brother Huang once told me that he is cooperating with the people behind him, and the East Palace can't keep him."

"I borrowed Feng Yuexian's hand to get rid of him."

This news hit Xu Jing even harder, but loyalty was engraved in his bones. He suppressed the regret in his eyes, and suddenly said:

"It means that you have already made the princess willing to do things for you?"

He looked at Song Pianle with a trace of awe.

To subdue Feng Yuexian so quickly, if he were the crown prince, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.

Song Pianliu paused for a moment, then laughed dumbly.

She didn't explain much, and sometimes it made her subordinates unable to see through herself, but it was easier to act.

Aunt Fangruo lived in the township of the original body. Aunt Fangruo was a person left behind by the former empress. She was extremely trustworthy. With her guarding her, Song Pianlu only needed to go back from the secret road in a few days.

The prince was seriously ill yesterday and couldn't stay at the bed. It didn't make sense that he became energetic today. Song Pianlu couldn't show up at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so he had to call the leader of the dark guard, Luo Chen, to come.

"Prince, after Xu Li was taken away, he disappeared." When Luo Chen saw her, he reported the important matter first, and frowned.

"There must be someone who seals the family in the Forbidden Army." And the power is extremely powerful.

Song Pianli nodded without any surprise.

She finally understood that apart from the dragon chair and the palace, Da Li still lives with the same family.Others are riddled with holes and loopholes everywhere.

"It's better to be someone who is Feng Yuexian than someone who is the king of Chu." Song Pianliu's mind is very stable.

This matter is not urgent, Feng Yuexian will not kill herself, what is imminent is the matter of the previous dynasty.

When the king of Chu learned about this marriage, as a villain, he had to cause some trouble for the East Palace and the Feng family, and arrived on time like a wedding blessing.

On the side of the East Palace, the crown prince is in charge of the country, and the king of Chu is nothing more than a sympathetic person. He took a few local officials of the princeling party and impeached him.

On Feng Yuexian's side, because the status is relatively equal, the two sides are not torn lightly. Every day, Zhongshu Sheng receives a stack of memorials about each other.

Feng Yuexian handled these things with ease, he didn't let the king of Chu take advantage of it, and even fought back fiercely, knocking down the minister of officials in the king's party and replacing him with his own people.

But Feng Yuexian never expected that something would happen to his mentor near the capital.

Feng Yuexian was exceptionally intelligent. Ever since she entered the women's school, her reputation as a talented woman had spread far and wide, and she later became a student of the famous Confucianist Sun Qing.

It was Sun Qing who had the accident.Sun Qing had a hobby of climbing mountains and was killed while climbing on Xishan Mountain.

Song Pianxuan met Luo Chen in the small study room on the east side of the East Palace, and ordered:

"The king of Chu has made too many moves recently, so I passed on the order of my palace to let the Beijing army patrol the surroundings carefully, so that no one can create disasters in vain."

Knowing her identity, Luo Chen cupped his hands and said, "Is it the Southern Army or the Northern Army?"

Fearing that Song Pianxuan would not understand the difference, Luo Chen said: "The commander of the northern army is a child of the Xie family, while the commander of the southern army, Li Fang, is the confidant of King Chu."

The Xie family... Song Pianlu recalled the information and found that the Feng family was extremely useful. They were from the Northwest Army with the Feng family, and they were very brave.

With the operation of the old emperor, none of the troops around Shangjing is in the hands of his own people.

Song Pianxuan pressed her forehead and said, "Northern Army."

"At Xishan Temple, there are always people praying for incense and worshiping Buddha. The crowd is so chaotic, let them pay more attention." She seemed to mention it casually.

"Yes." Luo Chen took the order and left.

"Where is the princess?" After Luo Chen left, Song Pianxuan asked Xueqing.

"The maids of the Crown Princess have entered the palace, and they are leading them to count things and put them into the small warehouse."

Feng Yuexian, who was being missed, was playing with an unattractive dagger at this time, and Yinxue and Yinbing, who were called into the palace, ordered the palace servants to count and compile the books, and then put them into the warehouse.

Er Yin has followed Feng Yuexian since childhood, and has a very good relationship. Yin Xue has a lively personality. After finishing the work at hand, he would hold a teacup and pour tea for Feng Yuexian, and ask her:

"Princess, where did the prince go?"

"Why are you looking for him?" Feng Yuexian glanced at her.

"The crown prince allowed us to enter the palace, so I should thank you." Yinxue smiled, "If it wasn't for the crown prince, you wouldn't even be able to bring a dagger in."

"He doesn't need your thanks." Feng Yuexian said calmly after a pause.

Just as he was talking, there was movement outside, and Song Pianiao walked in.

At this time, she is disguised as a man, dressed in moon-white regular clothes, her face is like a spring jade, although she is a little pale and morbid, with insufficient energy and blood, she looks more and more romantic and freehand, like a celestial being exiled from the sky.

Yinxue followed Feng Yuexian and watched him all day long as a military general. How could he have seen such a weak and handsome style? She woke up.

Fortunately, Song Pianlu wanted to make friends with Feng Yuexian, and she was a modern person inside, so she didn't care too much, she came to Feng Yuexian to talk about business.

After everyone retreated, Song Pianle said with a smile:

"I heard that the king of Chu has been doing a lot of things recently, and he always felt that he should do something, so he ordered the Beijing army to patrol around."

"It's the Northern Army."

Feng Yuexian raised her eyebrows: "This is really a job for them. It's always been peaceful around the capital, but it doesn't matter if you practice."

"It sounds like I'm pretending to be smart." Song Pianlu suddenly felt annoyed, "I have never been in contact with government affairs, and I will have to remind you a lot in the future."

That's right, this little princess doesn't know much about politics, so she has to give some pointers.

Feng Yuexian took a sip of tea, and followed Song Pianlu's ironing words, but felt comfortable all over.

She was about to put on the appearance of teaching the little princess well, when she heard Song Pianlu say:

"It should be safe to come to Shangjing. No matter what the king of Chu is, he can't do anything openly."

"I also asked the Northern Army to patrol the vicinity of Xishan Temple, so as not to disturb the pilgrims, so let's forget about it." Song Pianlu said, raising her head to call someone, and it seemed that she was indeed withdrawing her will.

Feng Yuexian hadn't noticed anything yet, the more he listened, the more restrained his expression became, and he subconsciously said:

"Hold on."

"Ok?"

Song Pianlu looked back at her with a smile in her eyes, but Feng Yuexian, who was frowning, didn't notice it.

When Song Pianjue mentioned "Xishan Temple", Feng Yuexian's keen intuition like a beast came into play. After four or five breaths of thought, she suddenly said:

"Today is the first day of junior high school."

"Not bad." Song Pianlu nodded.

On the first and fifteenth day of every month, my mentor Sun Qing likes to climb mountains and look far away.And what he likes to go the most is an octagonal pavilion in the Xishan group——

Feng Yuexian hissed lightly.

Why didn't she think of it, she didn't think of it.

If the king of Chu really attacked his teacher, it would be taken as a warning to her from this big wedding, and she would not be able to apologise if she died.

"The northern army is going to patrol, and the western mountain is going to be investigated." Feng Yuexian said in a deep voice.

"Huh?" Song Pianlu sipped tea, "Why did you change your mind?"

Feng Yuexian looked at her, his eyes were like cold stars, but Song Pianlian's eyebrows and eyes were hidden behind the dense tea soup, like clouds and mist dyed, soft and gentle, it was hard to see clearly.

Was it a mistake?

As Song Pina, can she really notice these things?

Although she admires her master very much, her focus has been on the court in recent years. Among the generals, she has not seen her master again for many days, so she is negligent at this time.

Song Pianliu was able to take care of things that even she would forget——

Intellectually, Feng Yuexian didn't believe it, but she was suspicious by nature, and there was a trace of hesitation in her heart that couldn't be shaken off.

She put down her thoughts for the time being, stood up slowly, and whispered softly:

"It's always right to be safe."

"Suddenly remembered that I forgot something I loved at home. I'll go and tell Yin Bing that I have to go out of the palace to get it."

Song Pianyi didn't ask too many questions, and said with a smile:

"Go."

Yin Bing hurried out of the palace and went to the Northern Army Camp to convey Feng Yuexian's message, only one step behind the order of the prince's personal guards.

When Xie You, the commander of the Northern Army, received the order from the prince, he was still ready to make do with the errand——

Who knows that there are only Tianzhuang temples near Shangjing, and there are no bandits and beasts, so what can happen?

Xie You even laughed at the prince with his subordinates because he was really powerless and didn't understand military affairs at all.

When Yin Bing, who represented Feng Yuexian, appeared and told them to take people to Xishan immediately, Xie You was stunned.

what happened?

Could something really happen?

With the prestige that Feng Yuexian has built up over the years, her name is much easier to use among the generals centered on the Feng family than the Prince's will.

Xie You didn't dare to delay any longer, wiped his sweaty forehead, and personally led the two teams to the west mountain, galloping away like shooting stars chasing the moon.

Yinbing went to the Bajiao Pavilion on the West Mountain, and led the way with him, and stopped Sun Qing who was about to climb the mountain at the foot of the mountain.

Then, they searched inch by inch, and they found dozens of men in black on the mountainside. After a fierce battle, they captured them alive and took them all into custody.

The news came back to Feng Yuexian with Yin Bing back to the palace.

She sat at the table for a long time, silent, and her palms were sweating coldly.

If Song Pianlu hadn't reminded her, the news she got today would not be this, but...

Song Pina, how did she know?

Suddenly, a palace attendant hurriedly walked in:

"Crown princess, the prince fainted in the small study."
