Those years when I was Princess Yan

Chapter 24 After Marriage

Xu Qingqing suddenly met a pair of thin and cold eyes, her heart shivered, and her lax consciousness gradually returned.He is not a scholar, although he has a familiar taste of a scholar, a scholar is no longer a scholar, he is the King of Yan, the King of Hades!

Bah bah bah!No, even if a scholar is a scholar, she shouldn't take advantage of him!

Xu Qingqing wiped her tears with her hands, and immediately turned her back to Zhu Di and lay down, huddling her body and continuing to bear it, trying to remain still, pretending that she hadn't done anything bad just now and was discovered by King Yan.

The room was extremely quiet, the dragon and phoenix candles made a slight burning sound, the flames flickered slightly, and the shadows were indistinct. Zhu Di's black eyes were almost lost in the night, and suddenly a sharp flash shot towards the curled up figure beside him.After a while, his eyes were closed again, his body remained the same, without any movement, as if he really didn't realize what Xu Qingqing had done to him just now.

Xu Qingqing bit her lip and forced herself to calm down for a while, the more she thought about it, the more something went wrong.She sat up abruptly, turned her head and looked at Zhu Di resentfully.

Zhu Di opened his eyes again and looked back at her quietly.

This kind of unbelievably calm eyes is usually fine, but now is when Xu Qingqing's body is being tortured and going crazy. Seeing Zhu Di looking at her so calmly, her anger doubles instantly as if being fueled by fire. .

"Did you drink the medicine in the wine?" Xu Qingqing asked angrily.

Zhu Di didn't answer immediately, but first glanced at Xu Qingqing, from head to toe.Xu Qingqing was seen by him, and quickly wrapped herself in a quilt.

"By your looks?"

Xu Qingqing understood the meaning of his words, if he denied it, he would deny it, why bother with personal attacks.

"What's wrong with my appearance? The nose is the nose, the eyes are the eyes, the breasts must match the chest, the butt must match the hips, it's perfect!" Girls can't tolerate being called ugly by others, and Xu Qingqing sticks out her chest Looking up, he retorted unconvinced.

Unexpectedly, a little girl like her would say such words casually, without any sense of shame.

Zhu Di frowned.

"That's not you, who could it be?" Xu Qingqing said dejectedly, but she believed in King Yan's words.If he really wanted to do that kind of thing, he would have been justified before he agreed to her conditions, and there was no need to lie.

"Could it be that it's a common practice that princes get married with condiments?" Xu Qingqing asked again, because it was too hot, she tugged on the collar, which had already been loosened by her. The neck and the convex and concave collarbones are exposed.

But it's still not right, she obviously added drugs to the wine.Why is it that after such a long time, the King of Hades is still so awake, not sleeping like a dead cow?

"Aren't you sleepy?" Xu Qingqing asked the third question.

Zhu Di looked back at Xu Qingqing helplessly, and answered all the questions in one breath: "I don't know, I don't know, I'm not sleepy."

I was sleepy at first, but after being tossed about by her like this, I lost sleepiness at all.He also drank the Hejiu wine, although he didn't drink much, it still had an effect.But compared to Xu Qingqing's weight, he can still bear it, without showing it.

"No, I have to get some medicine." Xu Qingqing got up and wanted to roll over Zhu Di's body and get out of bed.Unexpectedly, his lower limbs were flimsy, and he suddenly couldn't use his strength enough, and his whole body fell on Zhu Di's body.

"Uh uh uh!"

Xu Qingqing sat up and was about to say sorry when she suddenly felt that the place where she was sitting seemed to be wrong, he was——

Standing up in a panic, struggling too much, the left side of the clothes was inadvertently torn off, the shiny and delicate shoulders were like ice and snow, the sphenoid bones seemed to be cut, and when the waist and limbs were twisted, the faint fragrance of orchids came out.

Zhu Di lowered his eyes and pursed his thin lips into a line.

"I didn't do it on purpose, I'm sorry." Xu Qingqing straightened her clothes immediately, because she was too embarrassed to look at Zhu Di, she deliberately turned her head to speak in the direction of the bed.

After speaking, she was still very hot, so she kept fanning her face with her hands.But it didn't work, it was getting hotter and hotter.

Xu Qingqing glanced at Zhu Di who was motionless from the beginning to the end. At first she thought that he didn't react because he drank too little, but she didn't expect that this guy had actually reacted a long time ago, but he just kept pretending to be calm.And judging from the way she felt when she sat just now, the size of King Xiaoyan should not be small...

Pooh!What is she thinking!

Xu Qingqing hit her head hard with her hands.

Zhu Di glanced at her, "Fang Zi."

Huo Yan Wang asked her for a prescription and wanted to help her get it.

"late."

Xu Qingqing took a deep, decadent sigh and sniffed pitifully.She has now reached the point where her feet are weak and she can't use her strength.

With the aid of alcohol, the blood flow rate has been accelerated, and the drug effect has reached the stage of strong attack.Not to mention how long it would take to get the medicine and boil it now, even if you drink the ready-made medicine immediately, it is too late now.

"What should I do?" Xu Qingqing's eyes started to turn red again, and she looked at Zhu Di with tears in her eyes.

Zhu Di didn't say anything.

The hot and bone-piercing itchiness that was about to move engulfed her entire body violently like a flood.

She is really just a cannon fodder supporting role who doesn't deserve to have a name. She definitely doesn't have the strong willpower of the protagonist. It's so f*cking uncomfortable.This is a hundred times more severe than the lust sickness she experienced after using the kind words mantra, and I really can't bear it.Instead of being tortured to death like this, why didn't she use the ready-made person in front of her eyes? At least she should die happily and be a romantic ghost.

"Aren't you feeling bad too?" Xu Qingqing approached Zhu Di carefully and asked him.

When Zhu Di saw the person who immediately bounced away when he bumped into him twice, now he came closer again, he couldn't help but raise one corner of his mouth, as if teasing.

"Do you want to fulfill your duties as a princess?"

Xu Qingqing sniffled pitifully again, bowing her head in front of Zhu Di like a child admitting her mistake, "A little bit."

"Then ask your lord if he is willing."

"Is your lord willing?" Xu Qingqing raised her head and asked eagerly.

"I don't want to."

"Lie! The little prince is willing, and it has already expressed it." Xu Qingqing almost lost her mind. She had no concept of male and female defense, and now she thought of what to say.

Zhu Di's face changed suddenly, and he grabbed Xu Qingqing's chin suddenly, "How dare you say such a tiger-wolf word?"

"This is our big wedding day, new house, wedding bed, what can't be said and can't be done between husband and wife!"

Xu Qingqing's willpower collapsed, she directly grabbed Zhu Di's hand holding her chin, put his index finger into her mouth, and sucked lightly.

The opponent's arm froze visibly, and the coldness in his eyes gradually faded away, replaced by a turbulent flood like a beast.

"Xu, Qing, Qing!"

"My lord's Adam's apple is really pretty. When I saw it for the first time, I thought it was pretty. It looks like sweet-scented osmanthus balls. I really want to take a bite."

Xu Qingqing stared at Zhu Di's neck with dazed eyes, first touched his Adam's apple with her fingertips, then quickly withdrew her hand, and smiled sweetly with her eyebrows bent.Just when Zhu Di thought she was just being stupid and didn't dare to offend, Xu Qingqing suddenly possessed her and bit into the sweet-scented osmanthus ball she wanted most...

Under the shadow of the red curtain, Zhu Di's eyes flickered, he hooked Xu Qingqing's chin again with his hand, looked at her moist and reddish cherry mouth, pressed his thumb on it, and stroked it back and forth.Tan opened his mouth slightly, and bit his fingertips again, looking up at him with wet eyes, like a puppy that just got a bone, hoping for the owner's permission.

"That's how you like to bite, huh?"

The palm of her hand suddenly held the back of her neck, and pressed her lips fiercely...

The shadows under the red luan's tent overlap, and the dragon and phoenix candles shine late into sleep.

The low sobs that turned and turned a thousand times gradually turned hoarse before it stopped.

When Xu Qingqing woke up, she was lying on the outside of the bed.Zhu Di was lying in it half-reclining on the cushion, playing with the Nine Chi Jade Pendant in his hand. His clothes were half-uncovered, revealing his strong chest. Because the satin material of the inner coat was thin and close-fitting, it almost completely outlined his wasp waist and ape back. The figure shows the existence of every muscle.

Xu Qingqing couldn't help but think of the heat and strength she had endured last night, her face was so embarrassingly hot.Before Zhu Di looked over, she looked back in time, covered half of her face with the quilt, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

I have regained my sanity, and I am a little unable to face the current situation.

Ah, who set up the flag, said that if you don't have sex, you have a cleanliness, and then turned around and slapped a man in the face on the first night of your wedding.

She has no face to face Jiang Dong's elders! ! !

Her throat felt like it was on fire, and it was so dry and itchy that Xu Qingqing couldn't help coughing lightly.

"Wake up." Zhu Di suddenly said, not in a questioning tone.

Xu Qingqing pretended that she had just woken up, and slowly opened her eyes a crack, seeing that Zhu Di had already got out of bed, her eyes widened quickly.At this time, the maids rushed in like a fish, waiting for the two to bathe and change clothes.

Xu Qingqing was not used to bathing in front of Zhu Di, but fortunately Zhu Di disappeared as soon as he turned around.Xu Qingqing got up calmly, and took a comfortable bath under the service of her maids, Biluo and Bixi.

When Biluo and Bixi saw the traces on Xu Qingqing's body, they were happy for their daughter.It seemed to be a little violent, presumably the master's pot of wine must have contributed to it.

The female official came here to take away the Xipa, and the empress made a special statement that she must present it to her old man to have a look at it in person.The empress seems to be a little worried that Prince Yan is too cold-tempered to consummate the consummation, so she uses other things to fool him.Now that this trace is sure to be done, the empress will be happy to see it.

After Xu Qingqing finished changing, she saw Zhu Di appeared at the door fully dressed.

On the early morning of the first day of the wedding, it is natural to go to the palace to meet the emperor and serve tea.

Since the two of them got up late and had no time to eat breakfast, it was still too late to set off.

On the way to the palace together in the carriage, Xu Qingqing took a throat lozenge and put it in her mouth.

"What are you eating?" Zhu Di asked coldly.

Xu Qingqing pointed to his throat, gestured to him, and told him that his voice was hoarse and he could hardly speak.

Zhu Di sneered.

With this smile, Xu Qingqing understood that he must be laughing at himself for shouting too loudly yesterday.

Xu Qingqing stared at him unconvinced, and raised a finger to gesture to him.The meaning of the expression is also very obvious, one time is enough to relieve the effect of the medicine, and I don't know who couldn't stop it last night.Xu Qingqing pointed to her leg again, intending to tell Zhu Di that it was still sore and uncomfortable.

Zhu Di looked sideways out of the window, completely ignoring her intentions.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the notorious King Yan, who pulls his fork ruthlessly!

But that's fine, she didn't want to have a relationship with him, it was just an accident last night, so she didn't want to be trapped in Prince Yan's mansion forever.Anyway, after turning around and curing King Yan's illness, she will be free.

Xu Qingqing was idle and bored, so she also looked out of the window, the market was very lively, bustling with people of all kinds, among them were nobles in silk and satin.Sure enough, at the foot of the emperor in the capital, it is easy to run into the emperor's relatives if he walks three steps away.

Xu Qingqing was fascinated by watching, and suddenly saw a scallion-colored figure, with narrow shoulders and thin waist, and a petite figure. Although the appearance was only fleeting, Xu Qingqing could be sure that the face was eighty percent like the heroine Liu Lingxiu.

Xu Qingqing stood up, instinctively wanted to get out of the car to check, but bumped her head.The Living Hades sitting opposite looked at her coldly, as if looking at a big fool.

Logically speaking, after Liu Lingxiu's crime was firmly established by her, she should have already received a hundred sticks and was exiled three thousand miles away.Ordinary women suffer from these, and most of them die on the road.Of course, Liu Lingxiu is not an ordinary woman, and she must have had some other adventure to escape the strict criminal law.

Thinking about what happened to her, Xu Qingqing was a little unconvinced. It can be said that "people compare with others, and people are pissed off".She was a good aunt, doing a decent and legal business, but she was so unlucky that she ended up in today's situation, and was sentenced to a fixed-term imprisonment in the Yan Palace.Let's look at Liu Lingxiu, who is so vicious, violating the law and discipline, he can still get away with it and roam the capital freely.

Xu Qingqing leaned against the window and sighed three times.

Zhu Di couldn't understand what kind of monster Xu Qingqing was doing, thinking about when she just raised a finger at him, he didn't answer.Could it be that you are troubled by this?

After arriving at the palace gate and getting off the car, Zhu Di stretched out his hand to help Xu Qingqing.

"This king is not Liu Xiahui."

At this time, Xu Qingqing had finished eating the lozenges, and her throat improved a lot.After hearing Zhu Di's words, she quickly explained to Zhu Di in a half-hoarse voice: "Just now I blamed me for gesturing carelessly. I understand that what happened last night was an accident, and no one thought about it."

Zhu Di immediately withdrew his hand, and without looking at Xu Qingqing, he entered the palace gate first.

Xu Qingqing hurriedly followed, no matter how fast she walked along the way, she could only see the back of Zhu Di's head.

The two walked side by side until they arrived at Kunning Palace, kneeling down to worship the emperor.

After serving the tea, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately asked the young couple how they had a good rest yesterday.

Both Zhu Di and Xu Qingqing should be.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma noticed Xu Qingqing's hoarse voice, and they all laughed happily. It seems that they will get good news from the fourth child soon.

Empress Ma called Xu Qingqing to sit down beside her, and started talking about homework.The last time they met, it was inevitable that they would get along with each other, and Empress Ma didn't have time to ask about many things in detail.Now that she has become Princess Yan, she is her fourth daughter-in-law. Since they are a family, they will be closer to each other.The two of them made an agreement in a short while to grow radishes and pickle radishes together next spring.

Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally happy when he heard his wife and daughter-in-law talking about Nong Sang. After listening for a while with a smile on his face, he remembered that his fourth son was still standing with a cold face, a little neglected.

"I heard that you met a Jianghu assassin on the way to Fengyang last time?"

"Yes." Zhu Di agreed, "Recently bandits have been rampant everywhere in the rivers and lakes, so that women are robbed and kidnapped in the streets of Fengyang City. Therefore, I have killed Hu Baitian and his gang."

"A few gangsters in the area are so rampant?" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe it.

"Your Majesty Father, they are all very skilled, they are elusive, and they only bully the daughters of good families who go out alone. No matter how well guarded the granary is, they can't bear the rats' holes." Xu Qingqing heard the three words of 'Hu Baitian' Words, for fear that Zhu Di would bring up the matter of Kongming Lanterns, he hurriedly helped to speak.

"Oh? The fourth daughter-in-law also knows about this in Fengyang City?"

"Everyone in Fengyang knows that when the daughter-in-law went to do business in the city, many people warned each other that she must watch her daughter, otherwise she would be like someone else's daughter who would never come back after going out for a drink. It's..."

Xu Qingqing described what she saw and heard vividly, probably because Zhu Di was too cold-faced, Xu Qingqing had already developed a strong mentality, so she was not so nervous in front of the empress.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile, and stopped mentioning the bandits, but instead focused on Xu Qingqing's rituals, and asked her if the rituals she did were effective.

"My daughter-in-law doesn't have any abilities, she's just a half-baked fool." Xu Qingqing said modestly.

The palace maid quietly approached Empress Ma's ear and whispered twice, Empress Ma frowned suddenly.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang made some guesses, "Rong'er still can't eat?"

Queen Ma nodded in agreement.

"Second sister is sick?" Zhu Di asked.

It turned out that the Rong'er that the emperor called was the eldest daughter of the empress, Princess Ningguo, who was the second in line.The last time she was consecrated, when she met Empress Ma, she met several princesses, and Princess Ningguo was one of them. She was thirteen or fourteen years old, with a delicate appearance, and she looked very well-behaved and sensible.

"I don't know what happened. After returning from Bao'en Temple the day before yesterday, my appetite decreased. I was persuaded to eat something hard last night, and it didn't take long. I vomited it out. I asked the imperial doctor to see it again and again, but still couldn't see any symptoms. "After Ma Huang answered, she sighed with emotion, "It's strange, going to the temple can still hit the evil!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Xu Qingqing.

Xu Qingqing felt the emperor's unusual scrutiny, and knew that she was in trouble.

Zhu Di immediately said: "My son took her to visit the second sister."

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed, and immediately sent the people from the internal officials to follow. If Princess Yan needed anything, they were allowed to embezzle it from the warehouse at will.

After coming out of Kunning Palace, Xu Qingqing looked at a large row of eunuchs following them, leaned over to Zhu Di and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

"Let you exorcise evil spirits." After half a stick of incense, Zhu Di answered her words.

Xu Qingqing almost forgot what she said just now, and had to react for a while after hearing Zhu Di's answer.

How old is King Yan, why is the reflex arc so long?

Xu Qingqing looked at Zhu Di's height with weird eyes, but he was only more than 1.8 meters tall, thanks to the fact that he hadn't grown into a giant, otherwise she would not hear his answer in about three days.

It's really not easy being a royal daughter-in-law, not to mention serving a paralyzed face with a long reflex arc, and worrying about eating for her sister-in-law.Xu Qingqing couldn't help being a little envious of Liu Lingxiu, thinking that as a legal citizen, she lived such a miserable life, while other illegal citizens could live so freely, what is the reason for it!

"What are you thinking?" Zhu Di frowned, and raised his hand to cover Xu Qingqing's forehead.

Xu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and realized that she hadn't noticed that the corridor needed to be turned out, and almost bumped into the tree in a daze.

Princess Ningguo was half lying on the couch, her face was pale, her eyes were dull, and she seemed to have lost all vitality.

After Zhu Rong saw Zhu Di and Xu Qingqing, she forced a smile on her face and wanted to stand up to meet them, but Zhu Di stopped them.

"Why is the second sister like this?" Zhu Di asked.

Zhu Rong lowered her eyes, her voice was weak, "Fourth brother, don't worry, I'm fine."

Xu Qingqing observed from the side, and found that Zhu Rong's whole body shrank when the Living Hades asked questions, as if she was very resistant and taboo.She seems to be afraid of something, but there is something that can make a princess of a country fear, could it be that she is really bewitched and saw ghosts?

Thinking of ghosts, Xu Qingqing also flinched, wishing this was a world without ghosts, she was also afraid of ghosts.

Zhu Di suddenly felt the people around him tremble, and looked sideways at her, and saw Xu Qingqing was looking vigilant, his eyes were chattering around, and he was looking around the room defensively.He followed and scanned around, but found nothing unusual.

Zhu Difeng narrowed his eyes slightly, could it be that his second sister is really evil, and Xu Qingqing really has magical powers, and found that there are dirty things in this house?

"Sister-in-law Si is so beautiful today."

Zhu Rong saw that Xu Qingqing was wearing a red skirt with large sleeves today, and the skirt was woven with gold and phoenix patterns, which was dazzling. , all with beads in their mouths.The whole person is full of jewels but not vulgar, like a fairy concubine who descended from the sky, but is a bit more gorgeous than a fairy.

"You will also have this day." Xu Qingqing sat in front of Zhu Rong, took her hand, and pressed her wrist with her fingers to check her pulse.

Zhu Di was watching from the side, silent.

There is no major problem with the body, but it is a little weak after not eating for a long time.But if this state continues, even if you are not sick, you will get sick sooner or later.

"Did the second sister encounter anything in Baoen Temple?" Xu Qingqing had just finished asking when she obviously felt Zhu Rong's hand tremble slightly.

"It's okay, nothing happened. What can happen in the temple? After I went to pray for blessings, I went back to the palace immediately." Zhu Rong replied with lowered eyes, just like the situation when she responded to Zhu Di just now, she was avoiding people's eyes , it seems that she is very afraid that people will see through her mind and expose the little secret hidden in her heart.

If she really hit a ghost, she shouldn't have to hide it from her family so deliberately. There should be something more difficult to tell.

After leaving Princess Ningguo, the eunuch followed immediately, and asked Xu Qingqing with a respectful smile, if there was anything they needed to prepare, they could arrange all the equipment for setting up an altar.

"The method of setting up the altar is quite particular. It is necessary to choose an auspicious time and auspicious day, and more importantly, the right time, place and people. It may be against the destiny to do it rashly. Not only will it not solve the trouble, but it will easily be backlashed." Xu Qingqing said nonsense.

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and immediately apologized and agreed, and only asked Princess Yan to find them whenever she had an order.

In fact, Xu Qingqing couldn't use the spell because Princess Ningguo hadn't opened her heart yet, and her heart was too defensive.She had to find out what caused Princess Ningguo to become like this, and make Princess Ningguo willing to talk about it.

After the two went to report to Queen Ma, they went back to the mansion together.

"Are you exorcising evil spirits and eliminating disasters with the kindness mantra?" Zhu Di asked suddenly.

Xu Qingqing didn't expect Zhu Di to find out the truth so soon, but this person's IQ is different from ordinary people, and it will be a matter of time before she is discovered.Xu Qingqing nodded her head in agreement.

"Why didn't you use it just now?" Zhu Di really wanted to experience the power of the Kind Words Mantra. It was a novelty that such a mysterious thing existed in the world.

"It's not that I just use it when I want to."

"Afraid of hurting your body?" Zhu Di remembered that Xu Qingqing said that using the curse would damage her body.He hesitated for a while, and was about to speak again, when Xu Qingqing spoke first.

"Of course not. It will be fine if it is worn out for a few days, and it will be fine if you don't use it frequently. Besides, even if you hurt your body again, how can you not save the prince's own sister? The prince's matter is the concubine's business. Concubine Be determined to take the lead and die for the prince." Xu Qingqing suddenly flattered her.

Zhu Di glanced at her, "Speak up if you have something to say."

"I want to go to the street, okay?" Xu Qingqing immediately changed to a pitiful face and looked at Zhu Di.

"No."

"One day, husband and wife have a hundred days of kindness, the prince will let me go out for a day for the sake of our hundred days of kindness." Xu Qingqing continued to discuss.

Zhu Di stopped suddenly when she heard her specifically mentioning what happened last night. Xu Qingqing was still chasing him, and bumped his head firmly into his left arm.

Xu Qingqing rubbed her head, feeling as if she had hit a rock, his arm was too stiff.

"It's not what you want, how can there be any kindness?" Zhu Di said coldly, and walked away.

Xu Qingqing scolded Zhu Di secretly on the spot. The dog man is ruthless after he has a good time, and he doesn't recognize people when he lifts his pants.Well, I can't blame others, after all, she asked for it on her own initiative, and she slapped herself in the face first, but it hurts.

But this road does not work, and there are other roads.Since she can't solve the problem herself, she can use her strength to help.

Xu Qingqing went to ask Qiu Fu for a portrait of Liu Lingxiu, and deliberately said to him, "It's convenient to ask my father to help secretly investigate this person."

She didn't believe that Zhu Di would sit idly by knowing that her princess asked her father to do something.

"Isn't this person already arrested by Fengyang Mansion and sentenced to three thousand miles?" Qiu Fu wondered why the princess suddenly wanted a portrait of a wanted criminal who had been convicted.

Xu Qingqing took a sip of tea with downcast eyes, and pretended to be calm, "Why didn't Qiu Qianhu send someone to find out where Liu Lingxiu went?"

After Qiu Fu saluted and retired, he had time to report the matter to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was dealing with government affairs, and said by the way: "Go and investigate."

Half a day later, Qiu Fu came back to report: "Liu Lingxiu had been exiled in the cold area of ​​Northwest China a month ago, but when he was passing through the border of Luzhou Prefecture, he encountered bandits. Six prisoners and twelve escort officials were all killed. The state government notified the Fengyang government about this, and then reported it to the Ministry of Punishment to close the case."

"Can the body be confirmed?" Zhu Di put down his pen and looked up.

"Because the corpses were discovered late, they were gnawed beyond recognition by wild animals or wild dogs in the nearby mountains. We can only confirm the number of corpses, but it is not clear who is who." Qiu Fu said.

Zhu Di glanced at Qiu Fu, then picked up his pen and continued.

Qiu Fu understood that the prince wanted to check whether Liu Lingxiu could escape, but he was not sure whether to give the portrait to the concubine.

"My lord, then this portrait—"

The room was so quiet that only the sound of writing could be heard, Qiu Fu understood and quietly retreated.

On the one hand, he sent people to secretly check whether Liu Lingxiu was in Beijing, and on the other hand, he went to tell Xu Qingqing that the portrait did not survive, and the artist was in Fengyang Mansion, so now there is no way to repaint it.

Xu Qingqing sighed pretending to be regretful, "That's all, maybe I was blindsided this morning."

Qiu Fu saluted and stepped back without changing his face.

Liu Lingxiu has someone from King Yan to investigate, Xu Qingqing has nothing to worry about, she just needs to focus on Princess Ningguo's affairs at the moment.

Empress Ma has many sons and few daughters, and Princess Ningguo, as the eldest daughter, is quite favored.She must finish this errand, this is the most important opportunity to please the empress.Look at the ruthless appearance of the Living Hades pulling out his fork, you know that he must be unreliable.If she is bullied by King Yan in the future, only the emperor and empress can make decisions for her. These two are both big backers and life-saving talismans.

Xu Qingqing tidied up immediately and was ready to enter the palace.

"It's getting late, what is the princess doing in the palace at this time?"

"Tell the prince, tonight I will stay in the palace and chat with Princess Ningguo about the family." Xu Qingqing, as the princess, has been granted permission to enter and leave the palace at will.He left as soon as he said he would, without taking a cloud with him.

When Zhu Di came back from the outside, after hearing the servant's reply, his face was as cold as usual, but he didn't have any special reaction.That night, he slept in the study.

Xu Qingqing insisted on sharing the bed with Zhu Rong. Zhu Rong was taught by Empress Ma to be very well-cultivated, gentle and virtuous since she was a child.

"I can't sleep well at night. I keep tossing and turning. I'm afraid I'll disturb my sister-in-law's quietness. Besides, my sister-in-law and my fourth brother just got married. It is reasonable to say that they are not allowed to sleep out for three days. My sister-in-law made an exception for me, which offended my fourth brother." What should I do if I'm not happy? When my parents find out, they will definitely blame me." Zhu Rong said guiltily with her head down.

"I came to exorcise you according to the order of my father. Your fourth brother supports you and doesn't mind. But you can't wait three days later. After three days, your beautiful little face will be your fourth sister-in-law's." Great crime." Xu Qingqing said, pinching Zhu Rong's pretty face.

Zhu Rong blushed from being teased, "Sister-in-law is too unruly, I'm afraid the queen mother will reprimand you when she sees you tomorrow morning."

"For you, my sister-in-law is not afraid. If I abolish me for this, my sister-in-law will also admit it."

The so-called can't stand without breaking, although Zhu Rong seems to be gentle and well-behaved, but there is no time for people to be willful.She has always shown such an obedient appearance, perhaps because she has lived in this deep palace for a long time and has to learn to hide her true temperament.I am used to hiding like this, and once I encounter something that I think I can't say, it will be iron-mouthed and steel-teethed, no matter how others try to pry it, they will not be able to pry it open.If she doesn't show some sincerity, Zhu Rong will be moved in a short time, and it will be difficult to break her defense.

"Sister-in-law, don't be like this, I'll just eat obediently." Zhu Rong didn't want to hurt Xu Qingqing.

"Can you eat it?" Xu Qingqing asked back.

Zhu Rong's face turned pale in an instant, her eyes drooping and she remained silent.It's not that she doesn't want to eat, but as soon as the meal is in her mouth, the picture that suddenly pops up in her mind immediately makes her nauseous.

"There is no one else in this room. Tell my sister-in-law what happened to you at Baoen Temple. My sister-in-law swears that she will never mention this matter to outsiders." Xu Qingqing took Zhu Rong's slender hand and rubbed it "You will starve to death if you continue like this."

"I..." Zhu Rong's eyes turned red, her hands tightly clutching the quilt.

Xu Qingqing looked at her.

Zhu Rong pursed her lips, tears fell, but she still couldn't speak.

"Okay, let's not talk, let's go to sleep." Xu Qingqing pulled her to lie down.

In the middle of the night, the person beside me suddenly sobbed and frequently shouted words like 'disgusting' and 'so disgusting'.The palace people waiting outside heard that the princess in the room was still screaming in a nightmare like a few days ago, and wanted to enter the door anxiously, but Princess Yan had previously explained that they were not allowed to enter without permission.After waiting for a while, the palace people did not dare to wait any longer, and tentatively asked if Princess Yan was awake.

"No entry."

An unquestionable voice came, listening to Yan Wangfei's words, inexplicably reminded people of Yan Wang's icy face, the cold suddenly appeared, and the palace people kept silent.

Xu Qingqing listened carefully to the content of her sleep talk, and seeing Zhu Rong's disgusted and disgusted expression, she knew that she must have seen some ugly things in Baoen Temple, which seriously stimulated her cognition, which made her innocent. The young heart was hit hard.

Only then did Xu Qingqing wake up Zhu Rong.

Looking at her silently for a while, when Zhu Rong felt a little guilty, Xu Qingqing said slowly: "You had a nightmare, and you talked in your sleep."

Seeing Xu Qingqing's reaction like this, Zhu Rong thought she must have heard something, and hurriedly grabbed her, "Sister-in-law Si, you know everything?"

Xu Qingqing continued to look at her seriously.

"Sister-in-law Si, keep it a secret for me, don't tell it." Zhu Rong wept bitterly.

"What's so disgusting?" Xu Qingqing asked back.

Zhu Rong was shocked: "Fourth sister-in-law doesn't feel disgusting? They, they, as monks, did such unbearable things, like animals, it's disgusting, disgusting..."

Xu Qingqing patted Zhu Rong on the back, and finally had a guess.She went down to the ground and brought Zhu Rong the calming tea she had prepared earlier. After Zhu Rong drank it, she slowly said how she found out, how long she had been watching, and why she didn't dare to mention it.

After Zhu Rong finished her tea, she calmed down a bit, looked at her fourth sister-in-law looking seriously at her eyes, and thought that her fourth sister-in-law would ignore her newly married fourth brother for her own sake.

Zhu Rong lowered her head and told little by little what happened to her at Baoen Temple that day...

Early the next morning, Xu Qingqing and Zhu Rong went to Kunning Palace hand in hand to pay their respects.

Zhu Rong also ate a bowl of bird's nest porridge in front of Empress Ma, and after drinking it, nothing happened and she didn't vomit anymore.

Empress Ma was very pleased, and asked Xu Qingqing what method was used, which was so easy to use.

Xu Qingqing and Zhu Rong glanced at each other, she naturally wanted to keep Zhu Rong a secret.

"Second Sister was frightened at the back mountain of Bao'en Temple. It's not a serious problem. She put on the safety amulet and drank the calming soup and she was fine."

Zhu Rong nodded quickly, agreeing to do so.

"That's good." Empress Ma reassured, then turned to look at Xu Qingqing, "You last night—"

"The queen mother blames her daughter for being bad. The daughter is sick and makes the fourth sister-in-law worry. The fourth sister-in-law decides to stay with her daughter in a hurry. Please don't punish the fourth sister-in-law. If she wants to punish her, she will punish the daughter. It is the daughter who depends on the elder sister-in-law Stay overnight!" Zhu Rong thought that Empress Ma wanted to blame the fourth sister-in-law for breaking the rules, so she knelt down and begged for mercy.

Empress Ma laughed and pulled her up, "Your fourth sister-in-law has reported it."

Zhu Rong froze, turned her head and saw Xu Qingqing smiled and nodded at herself, she stood up angrily and stomped her feet, "Sisao lied to me?"

"I didn't say that you misunderstood." Xu Qingqing saw how cute Zhu Rong was stomping her feet in anger, so she deliberately teased her again, "Sisister-in-law wouldn't give up your fourth brother for you."

Zhu Yuanzhang was standing at the door with Zhu Di. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows high, raised his beard, and turned his head to look at his fourth son meaningfully.What a coincidence, it seems that the fourth daughter-in-law likes his fourth son very much.

Zhu Di lowered his eyes silently, his complexion remained unchanged, but there was a blush that was too faint to be found in his ears.

Xu Qingqing went out of the palace with Zhu Di, and asked him, "Why did your lord come to the palace so early today?"

Zhu Di didn't answer.

Xu Qingqing made fun of herself, touched her nose, but still stared at Zhu Di eagerly.There is no way, she used the kind words spell last night, and the color sickness started to attack again.

"Why is the second sister like this?" Zhu Di asked.

"I promised her not to tell outsiders," Xu Qingqing laughed seeing Zhu Di's face turned cold, "but since we are husband and wife, the prince is not an outsider. She saw something unclean in Baoen Temple and felt disgusted , but because it is the daughter's family who has not left the court, it is difficult to say."

On the way back, Zhu Di could feel that Xu Qingqing had been looking at him with hot eyes, and felt a little uncomfortable, so he had to close his eyes to rest.

After returning home, the two went their separate ways.Xu Qingqing left with some reluctance to part with her 'beauty'. Not long after, a servant girl brought over a lake blue plain dress, saying that she was asked to change it by the prince's order.

After Xu Qingqing changed her clothes, she was taken to the stable by the maid, and a half-old ordinary carriage drove up to her.Xu Qingqing was wondering when she saw Qiu Fu who was driving the car jump down and asked Xu Qingqing to get in the car.

After Xu Qingqing got into the car, she saw Zhu Di, who was also wearing a blue satin plain suit, sitting in it.It wasn't until the carriage stopped in the market that Xu Qingqing fully understood that the King of Hell had shown kindness and took her to the street.

Sure enough, pleasing the emperor and the empress can increase the benefits, but she didn't agree to it yesterday. Today, she has made meritorious service, so she is rewarded.

Xu Qingqing found the place where she met Liu Lingxiu last time, looked around, and found
