Those years when I was Princess Yan

Chu Qiu told Xu Qingqing that the incident happened four days ago. After she went to the front hall to read scriptures and meditate during the day, she returned to her room and found that the hanging picture on the front of the secret compartment was a little crooked. After opening the secret compartment, she found that the kind mantra inside was missing up.Because the matter was important and confidential, Chu Qiu didn't dare to spread the word with outsiders, and immediately rode to the capital.Fortunately, when she was approaching Beijing, she heard that King Yan was going to be a feudal clan today, so she hurried to catch up and finally got in time.

"I see." Xu Qingqing told Chu Qiu not to worry.

"But I don't know who stole it, and will use it to do bad things after stealing it." Chu Qiu was still anxious, the kind words curse was lost in her hands, and she always felt very ashamed of Xu Qingqing, causing trouble.

"Things are kept hidden, and only people inside the temple can enter the West Garden. There are likely to be insiders inside the temple. Either this person steals it, or it is revealed to others to steal it. Of course, it does not rule out that thieves enter by accident and search for it by themselves. After you go back Check it out, if there are really spies, you should find out."

Chu Qiu still felt guilty, and blamed himself: "It's all my fault that I'm useless, I can't even collect anything!"

"It's just throwing a dead object, as long as no one is injured."

Xu Qingqing told Chu Qiu not to blame herself, it wasn't her fault at all, if she had to be blamed, it was also her fault for leaving the mantra of kind words in the Peace Temple.At the beginning, because he felt that he could not inherit the Taoist temple, he gave Chu Qiu the good words mantra left by his master for storage.If she knew that there would be trouble like today, she would have thought of a more appropriate way to deal with it.

"Not everyone can learn this good words mantra, even if the thief steals it, it may not be able to use it." Xu Qingqing once again advised Chu Qiu to relax.

Chu Qiu recalled the time when he tried to learn the Kind Words Mantra, and it was as if his spirit had been drained overnight. It is true that not everyone can learn it.She, Chu Qiu, felt a little more at ease after this, and said some words to Xu Qingqing before reluctantly saying goodbye.

There is always a banquet in the world, as long as everyone can be well.

Xu Qingqing looked at the back of Chu Yue walking farther and farther, and couldn't help but recall the time when she was with her back then, as if it was yesterday.

"Let's go." Zhu Di took Xu Qingqing's hand, knowing that she was reluctant, and said, "Fengyang has already arranged good people to take care of them."

"I know." Xu Qingqing took one last look before getting into the carriage.

While the chariots and horses were walking mightily, a figure appeared at the end of the road where Chu Qiu disappeared just now.Chu Qiu rode his horse and chased slowly for a while, looked at the carriage that Xu Qingqing was riding in from a distance, cried and laughed for a long time, then wiped his tears with his sleeve, turned the horse's head, and left again

.

"At that time, I didn't know the prince. I always thought that I would stay with them in the Temple of Peace and live like that for the rest of my life."

If Zhu Di hadn't been in the way at the beginning, Xu Da wouldn't have asked her to recognize his relatives later, and she would have stayed in the Taoist temple all the time.In other words, if she hadn't provoke him and brought the scholar Zhu Di back to the Taoist temple, she wouldn't have had these futures.

"According to your personality, it's hard not to know me." Zhu Di was afraid that Xu Qingqing would be cold, so he covered Xu Qingqing's body with a fur blanket.

Xu Qingqing thought about it for this reason, every choice she made was due to her temperament, "So it is said that 'character determines destiny', they are all predestined."

"Character determines destiny." Zhu Di pondered over this sentence and nodded with a smile.

"Then if I wasn't of that nature, I wouldn't go to Fengyang City to set off Kongming lanterns to provoke the lord, and when I met the lord, I wouldn't lead the lord back to the Taoist temple, and I wouldn't cure the lord's illness. What kind of man would the lord marry at that time?" Woman?" The journey was far away, and it was boring to be idle, so Xu Qingqing asked the question she had thought about.

"Following the orders of my parents."

Zhu Di stared at Xu Qingqing with lowered eyes, seeing her nodding, he kept silent on his own.

"disappointed?"

"No, how normal is this? Most people have to follow the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker when they get married."

Xu Qingqing was just hesitating whether to ask the next question, she was afraid that Zhu Di would be annoying, but now it seemed that he was very interested in answering her boring questions.

"Then what should the prince do if someone finds out about the prince's illness after being married by the prince?"

"Husband and wife lose honor and glory, I will not do anything, and she dare not do anything."

"Once she doesn't know how to measure, what will happen to the prince?" Xu Qingqing continued to ask curiously.

"Human beings have weaknesses," Zhu Di suddenly laughed, "Do you know that Qiu Fu was a wild donkey back then?"

Xu Qingqing always thought that Qiu Fu was selected to be Zhu Di's bodyguard after he had been trained well.Judging from what Zhu Di said, Qiu Fu's past seems to be quite rebellious.Xu Qingqing hurriedly begged Zhu Di to tell the story.

It turned out that when Qiu Fu was seven years old, because his father was murdered by bandits, he secretly followed the officers and soldiers up the mountain with a kitchen knife to suppress the bandits.The scene was chaotic at that time, no one noticed him, but later they saw him riding on the bandit's neck and cutting off the bandit's head, that scene shocked everyone.Later, when he entered the barracks, he was not a big man, but he had a great temper and courage. He was the first to charge no matter what happened, and he desperately fought to the forefront.As long as he is sure of something, it is like a stubborn donkey, no one can pull it.

Zhu

When Di met Qiu Fu for the first time, he was kneeling naked and being punished by the military law. The iron whip beat him to pieces, but he still put on a stubborn expression of no regrets.After executing Qiu Fu, the commander of the barracks was so angry that he was half dead, thinking that his temper would eventually spoil the big things, and wanted to expel him from the barracks.Zhu Dizheng saw that he was young but had a brave and fearless drive, so he picked him up to teach him, and now he is the most useful person by his side.

Xu Qingqing looked at Qiu Fu who was obediently riding a horse and cart outside through the window. His back was straight, his face was serious and serious, and he couldn't tell that he was a stubborn donkey in the past.

"Then have I also been 'taught' by the prince?" Xu Qingqing felt that when she first married Zhu Di, she was quite restless.Maybe Zhu Di's "teaching" has been imperceptible for a long time, but I foolishly didn't notice it.

"Could it be that the princess feels that she has changed?" Zhu Di asked Xu Qingqing with a low smile. When he lowered his head, his chin just touched Xu Qingqing's forehead, and the two became more intimate.

"Of course it has changed." Xu Qingqing said immediately.

"No." Zhu Di rubbed Xu Qingqing's face, "It just changed, and it must be because someone is willing to change for this king."

Xu Qingqing sat up straight in surprise, looked at Zhu Di's face, and was looking at him with a warm and gentle smile.Said to be like a scholar, the sharpness between the brows has not diminished, said to be a prince, and a little too gentle.

Xu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled, "The prince has also changed, more than me."

Zhu Di put her in his arms again, and pressed his lips gently on her forehead.

"The king is also willing."

……

From Yingtian to Peiping, it takes more than two months by horse-drawn carriage.You could also take the water route, but because Xu Qingqing wanted to see more scenery, she chose to take all land routes.Just in time for spring, the flowers are blooming, neither hot nor cold, the climate is pleasant, and the scenery is also pleasant.

Little Winter Melon loves to play, so Xu Qingqing simply spread the felt mattress and fox fur in the carriage, and sat in the car with Little Winter Melon to play.When the carriage was bumping, Xiaodonggua was always happy and excited, crawling around and grinning.

Zhu Di occasionally teases the little wax gourd, but most of the time he is dealing with official business.Xu Qingqing also didn't understand how so many letters were accurately handed over to Zhu Di on the way.

Later, she found out that in order to understand the people's situation in various places, Zhu Di sent a team of people to investigate first, so when their carriage arrived, Zhu Di would have the news of the investigation.In today's peaceful world, when there is no accident, it is rare for a nobleman to pay special attention to the local people and the people when passing by a certain place

living conditions.But Zhu Di was able to pay attention to these, which shows that there are hills and valleys in his heart, and his pattern is different from that of ordinary people.

When we arrived at Xuzhou post station, the weather was just right, so we planned to stay for two days to rectify and rest before we set off.

Zhu Di was invited by the magistrate to the banquet.

Xu Qingqing held a small winter melon in front of the peach blossom tree after lunch, admiring the flowers and basking in the sun.

Xu Qingqing picked a pink peach blossom and put it in the little winter melon's hand, "This is a peach blossom, if you hold it, you will be lucky. In the future, my little winter melon will easily meet the girl you like."

Biluo and other maids were listening and couldn't help laughing, lamenting that Xiaoshizi didn't have such a romantic relationship, and with his good looks and good background, he might be lucky.

The laughter of the crowd continued, and there was a rumor that the prince had returned.

Xu Qingqing only had to turn her head when she saw Zhu Di appearing, walking very fast, and could still smell faintly of alcohol.

"My lord is back so soon?" Xu Qingqing couldn't stop being surprised, Zhu Di hugged the little wax gourd in her arms, and then handed it over to the nanny.Zhu Di took Xu Qingqing's hand, then entered the room and closed the door.

Xu Qingqing noticed Zhu Di's abnormality only because she felt the burning heat in Zhu Di's palm.The back of his ears and neck were flushed, and his whole body was hot and hot.

"My lord, could it be—"

"Ah."

Zhu Di hastily responded, and kissed Xu Qingqing's lips. At first it was intense, but then he stopped suddenly for a moment, then he let go of Xu Qingqing, leaning against her ear and asking in a hoarse voice.

"Can you?"

"of course can!"

It's right to find her when encountering such a thing, otherwise, why not find another woman?Besides, she also feels the same way, she knows best how uncomfortable Zhu Di is now.Although Xu Qingqing has never been treated with aphrodisiacs, the aftereffects after using the kindness mantra every time are comparable to the effects of aphrodisiacs. The feeling of being hot and unbearable and wanting to find the opposite sex to vent her anger is really hard to bear.

Zhu Di didn't expect Xu Qingqing to answer so simply without asking any further questions, and even seemed to charge forward, so he couldn't help laughing.Sure enough, he married an extraordinary wife.

After calling for water three times, Zhu Di finally calmed down.

Xu Qingqing then asked him what was going on.

"The magistrate of Xuzhou decided on his own initiative, and put the ingredients in the wine. The dancer is Ziying. They have been ordered to take them down, and they will be dealt with later." Zhu Di paused, then frowned, and said to Xu Qingqing, "Ziying Ying's temperament has changed, she has become abnormal—"

"What?" Xu Qingqing asked, telling Zhu Di to speak quickly, half-speaking would kill someone.

"Immodest."

Zhu Di pondered, "He also tried to recite the mantra of kindness to me,"

"My God!" It turned out that the mantra of good words was stolen by Ziying!Xu Qingqing immediately looked Zhu Di up and down, and when he was wondering what he had changed, he listened to Zhu Di's additional explanation.

"But before I could finish speaking, I was knocked out."

"She should have practiced the good words spell. The medicine in your wine may not be given by the prefect of Xuzhou. It is very likely that she used the good words spell to deceive the trust of the prefect of Xuzhou and made this arrangement specially."

Xu Qingqing was speechless. Why is this woman so overwhelmed? She clearly has a chance to live again, but she still wants to hit a stone with an egg.Why didn't she think about it carefully, when she was the general's wife, she still had the status of aristocrat, so nothing could happen.Now he is just a commoner, but he got to the top by virtue of his kind words, and he is just a concubine in the palace after all, as cheap as an ant.Furthermore, it is impossible for the empress to allow her to exist in Yan Wangfu.

"You said that not everyone can practice the good words spell, and your fourth senior sister failed." Zhu Di stared at Xu Qingqing, "How can you be sure that she can practice it?"

"What the prince said just now, Ziying's temperament has changed and she has become extremely immodest, it is likely that she just used the perfect spell—"

Xu Qingqing's mouth was quick, and when she looked up, she saw Zhu Di staring at her.

With his intelligence, he should have considered her unusually enthusiastic performance at certain times.

At this moment, Xu Qingqing shrank her neck and turned around to run away.

Zhu Di grabbed Xu Qingqing by the back collar and pulled him back.
