Bastards

Nanny Gui reported the situation to Concubine Tian Gui little by little.

First the good news.

Tian Guifei came up with a very good idea this time, and everyone was very supportive and enjoyed it.The beautiful ladies competed to perform, and the talents were even more active. The healthy competition caused countless small climaxes, and everyone's praise for the imperial concubine was unprecedentedly high.

I believe that the emperor and all the dignitaries and courtiers who also paid attention to the scene will be very satisfied. If they have a good impression of Tian Guifei, they will become better, and if they have a bad impression, they will also be reversed.

Concubine Tian's gaze casually fell on the plum branches outside the window, but she did not feel complacent about the result, as if everything was in her expectation.

"What about the others?"

"Others..." Nanny Gui looked at Concubine Tian Gui's expression, and began to tell the bad news, "Prince Chang took Prince Yue to block the beautiful girl Cui Ying, but Yang Zhao cut off her hair."

Concubine Tian Gui was startled, and her eyebrows frowned slightly: "Yang Zhao? Grandson of Prince Ying?"

Nanny Gui lowered her head: "Yes. Our people report that Yang Zhao treats Cui Ying differently."

Concubine Tian Gui quietly looked at the flower branches, tapped the table with her fingertips, and did not speak.

Nanny Gui said again: "Your Majesty, Yang Zhao...isn't engaged yet."

"So, it's a little troublesome." Concubine Tian Guifei thought for a while, and said, "There can be no accidents at the show girl banquet today. You pass on the word and let my son be at ease. The left and right Cui Ying is still in the draft and cannot leave Huangzhuang. After today, This palace has its own methods to make my son fulfill his wish."

"Yes."

Nanny Gui saluted, and then talked about the failure of Princess Fu'an to block the crown prince.It seems that she looks down on Princess Fu'an's sensationalism, and she inevitably reveals a bit of contempt when she speaks.

Concubine Tian Gui's beautiful eyes slightly closed, and she snorted: "I'm going to be laughed at by this stupid girl. I've already used the fragrance of love, but I still can't make it. Does this person have no brains? The scheming person can only think of one A way?"

Nanny Gui then echoed: "That's not the case! This scheming person also pays attention to what he likes. Since he has already seen that the crown prince doesn't like her face, what's the use of continuing to act like that? Why don't you use your brain?" , think of another way..."

Concubine Tian Gui sipped her tea: "Look again, if this Fu'an ghost is obsessed and can't help her anymore, and she begs you for convenience later, then you should refuse."

"Yes."

After saying this, Nanny Gui brought up the matter of the prince's chance encounter with the half-immortal Cui Mata after he rejected Princess Fu'an.

Concubine Tian Gui's beautiful eyes narrowed immediately, sharp and vigilant: "Do they have friendship?"

"Your servant can't guess," Nanny Gui recounted the scene at that time, "It seems that they just met by chance, the two of them met each other, but Banxian walked away quickly, and the crown prince didn't follow, it seems that he didn't think of Banxian at all. mean."

Concubine Tian Guifei thought for a while: "I'm afraid it's not that I don't see it differently, but that the place is not suitable and I can't talk well..." She tapped the table with her slender fingertips, "Let King Yue visit Cui Yu more in the near future, and prepare some Good gift, watch the prince's movements, and if he intends to contact Cui Yu, report it to the palace immediately!"

It's just that...

"Put more value on Cui Yingde."

Cui Yu has passed the age of weak crown, and still has no intention of getting married and marrying a wife. Xu Gaoren has a different attitude towards worldly affairs.But people are concerned, and he doesn't want to get married, it doesn't mean he doesn't care about his family.In the information, he is very caring for this sister...

As soon as Concubine Tian Guifei said this, Mammy Gui felt a little nervous, because Ban Chan had already made a move.

Of course she would not hide these things for Ban Chan, but if the imperial concubine got angry because of this, it would inevitably implicate her and blame her for a crime of negligence. Because of this incident, Nanny Gui felt very uncomfortable.

Then she became more careful when she spoke: "There is one more thing about Cui Ying, my lady must not be angry after hearing this."

Concubine Tian Gui narrowed her eyes, and quietly glanced at Nanny Gui: "What happened, is it worthy of your care?"

Although the voice is soft, the momentum is cold and ruthless.

"It's a servant who has overlooked!" Nanny Gui immediately knelt down, "Ban Chan, the beautiful girl, likes Prince Yue, and occasionally saw Prince Yue accompanying Prince Chang to meet Cui Ying, and it happened that Prince Yue was talking to Cui Ying cordially, so she... ..."

Concubine Tian Gui raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Are you jealous?"

"It's okay if that's the only way," Nanny Gui lowered her head even lower, "Ban Chan misunderstood that the king of Yue was interested in Cui Ying, and Cui Ying was his opponent, and she wanted to get rid of it, so she sent someone to borrow the crazy cat in the small kitchen... ..."

Concubine Tian Gui threw the teacup to the ground in an instant: "She is so courageous!"

Who doesn't know that crazy cat?

Moreover, she had passed on the word earlier that she would not allow any mistakes in this spring banquet, and Ban Chan fell on deaf ears!

"Young lady, don't worry, Cui Ying is fine," Nanny Gui quickly explained the situation at that time, "Perhaps she also has a cat at home, and Cui Ying knows how to subdue that crazy cat so well that she almost treats her like a cat." When the master acted like a baby, Yang Zhao, who had been protecting her all the time, had no chance to make a move..."

After speaking, there was a long silence in the room.

Xu Shi was fine in the end, Concubine Tian Gui's anger did not rise, and after calming down, she slowly wiped her hands with a handkerchief: "...just like her conceited mother, she is as stupid as hell."

Nanny Gui let out a long breath in her heart.But before she could relax completely, Concubine Tian's words came again: "This time, I won't punish you, and I won't be careful next time—don't blame me for embarrassing you!"

Nanny Gui hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Madam! I promise that there will be no next time!"

"Go on. Give Ban Chan a little memory."

Concubine Tian Guifei spoke casually, but Nanny Gui did not dare to treat her casually. When she left the room, she recruited her confidantes to beat Babanchan well!

……

A woman may need to put in a lot of thought and take a long time to prepare for something, but once a decision is made, the action is very fast.In particular, Ban Chan's actions have touched the concubine Tian Gui's limits.

Ban Chan immediately received a reprimand from above.

She was a little unconvinced, then Cui Ying didn't have an accident!

But this is not in her own home, and she can't show it if she is not convinced, so she has to agree aggrievedly, saying that she will not move any more.

He appeared obedient on the surface, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart.

Her doing these things has obviously been known by the imperial concubine, but the empress did not punish her, and she did not even allow her to continue to attend the spring banquet, but just reminded her a little - this means that her father's left-handed position is very important , Her mother... It is also very important to keep in touch with the imperial concubine for many years, the imperial concubine will not do anything to her.

After thinking it over clearly, Ban Chan felt more at ease. On the surface, he would not do anything to the show girls, but secretly...

The corners of her lips were raised slightly, and her smile was sinister.

……

Because it was still early, Cui Shu followed Ban Chan for a while, seeing her being reprimanded by the grand lady, he was very gloating and laughed a lot.

Should!Tell you to play tricks!It shows you are smart!

But then it gets a little boring.After being reprimanded, Ban Chan restrained her behavior a lot and never targeted any beautiful girls again... The two aristocratic daughters, Zheng Youniang and Lu Yi, took advantage of this opportunity.

Cui Shu smacked his lips and turned to follow Cui Ying.

Cui Ying was as smart and stable as ever, and Yang Zhao was quite sensible, protecting her well.

And Yang Zhao was really lucky.

Cui Shu saw that the two of them lost their way suddenly. When they walked deep into the forest, they suddenly encountered a dangerous slope, and someone was calling for help from the bottom.Yang Zhao went over suspiciously and saw that it was the son of the family who won the most flowers with his intelligence and knowledge just now, the elder brother of Lu Yi, the beautiful girl, Lu Tong.

I don't know how Lu Tong walked, he didn't support himself on a tree, he didn't roll on a steep slope, but fell into a slope hole with extremely sharp stones!The slope hole is extremely small, just big enough for one person to enter, but if one falls in, one will either die or be disabled!

Lu Tong was also clever. When he slid down, he grabbed the edge of the hole with both hands. Now his body is suspended in the air, and he has not yet fallen.But if calling for help fails and Yang Zhao doesn't pass by, he won't last long...

Yang Zhaoshun saved him.

Lu Tong expressed his apology and gave all the flower branches he won to Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao cheerfully showed off to Cui Ying with a handful of flower branches.

Cui Ying: ...

Could it be that stupid people have stupid blessings?

Lu Tong himself couldn't explain what was going on, but suddenly lost his way, he found a palace lady for help, and the palace lady led the way, so he fell here.As for who the maid was, where she was now, and why she ignored his cries for help, he had no idea.

In this matter, even Yang Zhao didn't think Lu Tong was just unlucky, let alone other people?

Lu Tong looked very bad, and said goodbye to the two when they reached the right path.Yang Zhao didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs, so he dragged Cui Ying into the crowd again.

Cui Shu smacked his lips, this is a bit unusual, um... I have to talk to my nephew later.

At this time, I looked at the sky again, and it was almost the same.

Cui Shu closed his eyes, took two deep breaths, and when he opened them again, the bottom of his eyes suddenly revealed light, his complexion was solemn and upright, the usual frivolity was gone, the young man was elegant, handsome and unparalleled, and his temperament changed all of a sudden!

He squeezed the face covering, quietly paying attention to the surrounding environment, walked up and down, and soon disappeared.

……

Cui Yu's experience is very similar to Cui Shu's.

In addition to being unlucky, seeing Emperor Taikang appearing, and being seduced by a certain gorgeous and hot figure, he also encountered a troubled son of an aristocratic family.

Zheng Youniang's elder brother, son of the family.

It seems to be drunk, and lured to a certain place with ulterior motives.

This matter has nothing to do with Cui Yu, he didn't want to care about it at first, thinking about how many times the Zheng family and the Xie family met him when he was in Chang'an, it was a bit of a relationship.

He thought for a while, but didn't take care of it directly. He recruited a young eunuch and said that something seemed wrong when he saw Mr. Zheng, so he asked him to take a look.

The little eunuch has passed the order, knows the importance of today's spring banquet, asked Cui Yu's name and surname, thanked him, and immediately went with a straight face...

Cui Yan looked at the young eunuch's back, frowning slightly.

This matter is not simple.

Zheng's family is not a small family, how dare someone cheat at this spring banquet?Dare to do this, and do it, this person is very powerful... Go back and ask your little uncle to see if there is any useful gossip.

After that, he didn't care.

Because the time... seems to be almost here.

Cui Yu knew that he grew up in his brain, not in force.He can't participate in direct fights, and if he doesn't slow down and affect the overall situation, he just helps.

But I also want to watch the situation change at any time...

After thinking about it, he asked the little eunuch for a pot of wine and a box of side dishes.

The little eunuch, accompanied by a smiling face, got ready quickly, watching the half-immortal lead his servants towards a small hill, climbing high and looking into the distance.

Or to say that an expert is an expert. Others attend this spring banquet to make friends, fold flowers and branches, to see beautiful women, half-immortals, and pink skulls are not eye-catching. In the eyes of humans, the scenery is easier to see than humans!

Ning didn't look at these delicate and flowery girls, and ran to the highest place to sit and admire the plum blossoms!

Cui Yu knew that someone would follow him, but he was not in a hurry or flustered.His every move is in line with the image of a half-immortal.

Anyway, it was Yang Xuan's person who was going to perform later, so he just sat and watched, even if everyone saw him, they couldn't fault him at all.

only……

Why is Yang Xuan also on this small hill!

Cui Yan had just chosen the boulder and sat down, the side dishes were arranged, and the wine was poured. Before he could take a sip, he saw Yang Xuan nestled on a tree branch not far away.

Yang Xuan waved his hand to greet him vigorously, and lingered for a moment on the jug of side dishes in front of him, as if a little envious.

Cui Mata: ...

He quickly looked around, but fortunately, there was no one.

Because he blatantly occupied this small piece of hill, and put on the posture of wanting to enjoy the scenery quietly and get close to nature, when others saw him, they didn't follow him. Moreover, no one saw Yang Xuan.

That's right, Yang Xuan is so capable, where should he hide, how could he be discovered?To be seen by him is because Yang Xuan is willing to show his signs...

As if sensing what Cui Yu was thinking, Yang Xuan gestured to him, made a face, and told him that it was all right, no one knew that the crown prince was here.

Cui Mata: ...Okay.

It's also a coincidence.

After thinking about it for a while, Cui Yu also understood why Yang Xuan was here.

He is also biding his time.The terrain here is high, and everything below can be seen at a glance. Once Concubine Tian Gui appeared, she would be able to spot it immediately and signaled the start of the operation.And after the operation started, all the performances of Concubine Tian Gui can be clearly seen here!

Cui Yu looked around, nodded to Yang Xuan quietly, and signaled him with a wink: Don't get excited!Don't show your face!

Seeing his response, Yang Xuan thought it was a beauty.

Cui Mata wasn't angry at all!He said, his rabbit is the prettiest and most sensible, how could he get angry with him because of a misunderstanding that didn't exist!

Still caring so much about myself...

The corners of Yang Xuan's mouth reached to his ears, and he decided to perform well and not let Cui Yu down!

Everything has been arranged, as long as Tian Guifei appears, she can act at any time!If Concubine Tian Gui doesn't show up, he will try to force her to show up!

But this possibility is very small.

Concubine Tian Guifei worked so hard to make such a spring banquet, how could she just stay in the room and not come out to look around and enjoy the results?With her identity, it is impossible for her wisdom to show from the beginning to the end...

In the Huangzhuang Wing Room, Concubine Tian once again listened to Nanny Gui's report on their respective situations.

It's good this time, it's all good news, nothing bad.

"You did a good job." Concubine Tian Gui smiled and looked at Nanny Gui, "There is a reward."

Nanny Gui thanked her with a happy face: "Thank you, Madam!"

"Get up."

After Nanny Gui got up, she saw Concubine Tian with a smile in her eyes, she seemed to be in a good mood, she looked out of the window a little... Interested?

Nanny Gui thought for a while, and then said: "It's getting hot now, and it's not cold at all. Madam, do you want to go for a walk?"

"That's good, it's really nice for me to see the spring scenery, it's very pleasant."

Concubine Tian Gui nodded, and looked at Nanny Gui with a slightly deeper gaze: "Tell me, where is it suitable for me to go for a walk?"

Nanny Gui made a gesture of thinking.

"Beautiful girls and talented people are playing games just right, and it's time to cultivate some feelings. The status of the empress is noble, even if she pities the juniors and gives some face, the juniors may feel uncomfortable. The emperor wants to discuss business with the ministers. It's not suitable for a spring scene... Why don't you go and see you and the ladies?"

"Oh?" Tian Guifei's eyes drooped slightly, and she casually twirled the jade bracelet on her wrist, "Where are the ladies and gentlemen now?"

Nanny Gui smiled: "Most of them have gone to Tianze Temple. One is to add some sesame oil to accumulate good fortune, and the other is to pray for the juniors. If you are lucky enough to get a lottery from Master Huizhi, it will be even more amazing." Yes! Today is free, and it happens to be on the way, who wouldn't want it?"

Concubine Tian Gui smiled at the corner of her lips: "The mistress of Zheng Lu's two beautiful daughters has also gone?"

"Yes, the slaves are for people to watch, the wives of the two families have indeed gone to Tianze Temple!"

Concubine Tian Gui stood up: "Very well, Ben Gong will go over and have a look."

Nanny Gui hurried over to personally help her change her clothes, complimenting her non-stop.

For a while, I said that the empress is really beautiful, with such white and smooth skin, she is not weak to stand with beautiful girls; She is a model mother in the world, and she broke her heart for her two sons...

Concubine Tian Gui smiled and said nothing, letting her flatter her.

When she was ready, she took Nanny Gui out.

Walking out from the depths of Huangzhuang, it happened to be not far from the low slope where Cui Yu was.

As soon as Cui Yan saw the figure of the imperial concubine, his heart hung high, and he subconsciously looked at Yang Xuan: It's started!

Yang Xuan's eyesight is better, she saw Concubine Tian Gui one step earlier, and the secret whistle blew!

In an instant, the situation changed suddenly.

At the bottom of the hill, among the plum groves, a masked man in white jumped out from nowhere, with a nimble movement and excellent martial arts!

This man covered his face and couldn't see his face, but he was holding a thin booklet in his hand!The booklet has a green background and a gold border, with no words on the cover, but you can tell it's extraordinary just by looking at it!It didn't matter, the masked man in white suddenly slipped under his feet, staggered, and the booklet was thrown from his hand, and it was thrown into the air. When the spring breeze blew, the booklet opened, and it was full of people's names!

The man in white was very nervous, and quickly jumped into the air to grab the booklet——

He managed to get the booklet into his hand, but the people behind him took advantage of the time difference to entangle him!

This man was wearing a green robe, with a black scarf covering his face, and he came here with a ruthless move, trying to kill the man in white and grab the brochure!

This scene happened at a close distance, and there was too little time to react. Concubine Tian Gui frowned when she saw it, and asked Nanny Gui sharply: "What's going on! Why did you make trouble in Huangzhuang!"

Nanny Gui is also a little strange: "It's the news from the brochure we got from Tsing Yi before. For some reason, we obviously didn't move, and the news leaked out. We were robbed a few days ago, and the Tsing Yis quickly followed, but the other party The way is unknown, the ability is extremely high, and I didn't snatch it back... Maybe it was a coincidence that I chased here."

"Ma'am, what shall we do?"

Ask her to say that it was so hard to capture Cui Yu at that time, and the loss was so great afterwards. Since she got the news from the booklet, she should act decisively. However, the imperial concubine always has doubts. worried.

He Gang, too shadowy, made her feel unreal.

What should we do now?

Concubine Tian Gui was also thinking anxiously, the matter has come to an end, if Tsing Yi can kill the man in white right away, it would be good if she took the booklet, but the matter should not make a big fuss, this is Huangzhuang, the spring banquet she is looking at, besides, And those people...

On the hill, Cui Yu and Yang Xuan watched Tian Guifei's performance together.

This terrain is very ingenious, there is a palace-style gate underneath, and there is a plum forest covering it, people below cannot see the people on the hill.But looking down from the hills, it is easy to see everyone clearly.

Including expressions.

Concubine Tian Gui was only surrounded by Nanny Gui and her confidantes. She had just left the door and hadn't reached a crowded place yet, so there was no one else around.Perhaps this is the case, Concubine Tian's expression was not concealed, and Cui Yu and Yang Xuan saw it squarely.

nervous!Worried!If this man in Tsing Yi had nothing to do with her, no dog would believe it!

Yang Xuan had a mocking sneer on his face, and thought to himself, where is this going? Are you scared?Will the man in gray come to see you for a while and scare you to death!

He turned his head to look at Cui Yu, and lost his flying eyes.

Cui Yu gave him a helpless look: Concentrate on work!

The corners of Yang Xuan's lips slanted up, and instead of looking at Concubine Tian, ​​he looked straight at Cui Yu, and counted with the shape of his lips: one, two, three!

When he counted to three, he snapped his fingers silently.

Just as he snapped his fingers, a man in gray suddenly rushed out, wrapped in a murderous aura, and charged directly at Bai Qing and Bai Qing. That posture was obviously aimed at the booklet!

At this time, the calculation was extremely accurate!

When Cui Yu looked at Yang Xuan in surprise, Yang Xuan had already turned his head and was staring at Concubine Tian's expression.

Concubine Tian Gui... the time was too fast, she broke out in a cold sweat, and before she could make up her mind to ask the man in Tsing Yi to stop, someone came again!

The moment she saw the man in gray, her apricot eyes widened suddenly, she gritted her teeth fiercely, and ordered Nanny Gui: "Let Tsing Yi back!"

Nanny Gui was only a beat too slow before she was slapped by Concubine Tian Gui: "I told you to let Tsing Yi go, did you hear that?"

Nanny Gui hurriedly issued a secret order...

With just this reaction, Yang Xuan understood that Concubine Tian not only wanted the brochure, she wanted it firmly, she also knew the man in gray and who he was!

Not only does she know the identity of the man in gray, but she also has some past, so she is very jealous, and doesn't want her own people to run into the man in gray!

Everything is exactly as they expected!

Unfortunately, it was a step too late.

The three parties were already facing each other, the man in gray saw the man in green, and even——saw Concubine Tian Gui.

In such a situation, Concubine Tian Gui, how can you remedy this situation?
