The demon concubine of rebirth, you have been tricked by gl

Tingluo in the center of the lake in the Imperial Garden had an incense burner installed early in the morning, and the burning smoke rose upwards in a straight line.

In the crystal-clear lake, red and white koi swim leisurely in the water, occasionally swinging their tails and quickly plunge into the depths, splashing a few tiny water splashes.

Cao Yi changed into a red dress, wore a jade crown on his head, and leaned against the railing of the pavilion with a folding fan in his hand. He leisurely picked up some fish food from a small dish on the side and threw it into the water, causing a group of fat fish to toss and grab food.

Cao Yi lazily stretched his waist, leaning his slender body sideways against the pavilion pillar, his fair and delicate face was full of emotion.

Looking at the group of fish in the water that were too fat to swim, Cao Yi reached out and squeezed his flat stomach, and sighed.

"Even the fish in the palace are so fat, they seem to have more meat than me."

When the two maids guarding at the side heard Cao Yi's emotion, they couldn't help but look at each other and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"puff."

Cao Yi giggled, and on his handsome face like a peach blossom, there was a pleasing chuckle, and he narrowed his starry eyes and asked lazily.

"You two young ladies, when will the Concubine Xian come? My waist is sore from waiting."

Cao Yi was already handsome, and always had a smiling face, making people feel cute and kind, a little palace maid covered her mouth and smiled.

"Mr. Cao came so early, and the lady has to wash and dress up, so naturally she will be slower. If Mr. Cao feels tired, you can eat some cakes prepared by the imperial chef and drink some green tea."

Cao Yi flicked his sleeves and sat down at the table, looking at the exquisitely carved and fragrant cakes on the table, with a gentle smile on his face, he waved to the two court ladies.

"It's boring to eat too much alone. I don't know if the two young ladies have breakfast in the morning. Why don't you sit down together and eat some with me."

The two little maids waved their hands over and over flattered.

"Impossible, this is against the rules. Mr. Cao is a distinguished guest of the Yan Kingdom. The manager specially sent two slaves and maidservants to serve you. How dare you eat at the same table with Mr. Cao."

Cao Yi nodded, knowing that he could not embarrass them, he picked up two pieces of pastries from the jade plate on the table, walked to the two little maids, and stuffed them into their hands.

"There are so many rules in the palace. The two young ladies have been waiting here with me early in the morning, so they must be tired. Take this cake and eat it first. If I don't tell you, no one else will know."

"This...."

The cakes were all stuffed into their hands, and the handsome young man looked at them with a smile and winked, but they couldn't refuse, so they blushed and bit the cakes.

"Haha, it's interesting to eat together like this."

Cao Yi laughed when he saw them eating, and took a piece of pastry when he sat down, and took a big bite.

Before the pastry in his mouth was swallowed, he heard a clear and pleasant female voice behind him.

"Master Cao has been waiting for a long time."

Cao Yi bit the pastry and looked back, he saw Yan Wanting standing beside the pavilion, wearing a plain white elegant palace gown, a jade flute on his waist, and a smile on his hands behind his back.

Behind him was a heroic woman in a short black dress with a cold face and a long sword in her hand.

"Cao, I have met Her Royal Highness."

Cao Yi unhurriedly put down the pastry he just took a bite of, and quickly knelt down to salute.

I saw that his bowing movements were extremely slow, his words dragged down, and the corners of his clothes were lifted before he knelt down.

A sly smile flickered on the corner of Yan Wanting's lips, she smiled politely, took half a step forward, and stretched out her hand to caress.

"Mr. Cao doesn't need to be too polite."

Before Cao Yi knelt down, he stood up and patted his sleeves, looked up at Yan Wanting, and exclaimed.

"The last time I saw Her Highness the Princess, I felt that His Highness had a detached aura, and it was even more so when I saw her today."

Yan Wanting's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze stayed on Cao Yi for a while before he spoke.

"I can't compare to Mr. Cao."

Cao Yi was stunned, and seemed a little puzzled.

"Huh? What is the meaning of this, Your Highness Princess?"

Yan Wanting gently raised his jade feet, Shi Shiran sat down, looked at Cao Yi who was dressed in red like a bridegroom, and said with a smile.

"This palace is not as beautiful as Mr. Cao, and even the clothes are not as gorgeous as Mr. Cao."

Cao Yi rolled his eyes, laughed, stretched out his hand to twist a strand of black hair hanging down his shoulder, and stroked it lightly.

"Haha, Your Royal Highness made fun of it. Caomin has long admired Xia... Concubine Xian, and has never had the opportunity to play chess with her. Today, I finally have this opportunity, so I must dress up properly."

Cao Yi's slightly delicate movements made Li Fengyou, who was like a piece of wood, tremble. She stared ahead, glanced at Cao Yi from the corner of her eye, and moved back.

It was the first time she saw a man who was not an eunuch but was more feminine than her, and he was so delicate and beautiful, which made her wonder if Cao Yi was disguised as a man to hide the truth.

Knowing that Cao Yi had waited for a long time again, Yan Wanting said.

"I'm afraid it will take a while for Qiu Lian to arrive. She needs to take a bath in the morning and drink some medicinal soup. I'm afraid it will take some hours."

Cao Yi frowned, and looked at Yan Banting worriedly.

"Seeing Concubine Xian's face at the banquet yesterday seemed a little bad. I heard that Concubine Xian was assassinated outside the palace last time. Could it be that she is still not feeling well?"

"Well, the old wound left by last time is still not healed, it's good that Mr. Cao can understand."

"Since Concubine Xian's health is not good, there are still some heavenly medicinal herbs in Cao's Tianyi Pavilion. Tomorrow, Cao will call someone to bring them quickly and dedicate them to Concubine Xian."

Yan Wanting knew that Cao Yi's Tianyi Pavilion contained many treasures that outsiders had never seen or even heard of, and there might be many precious medicinal materials that had never been found in the palace.

Her heart moved, but she didn't refuse, so she said.

"Mr. Cao has a heart."

After Yan Banting finished speaking, she turned her head and glanced at the two little maids who were standing aside after eating the cakes with crumbs on their mouths.

Li Fengyou knew what Yan Wanting meant with just one look, and she waved to the two little maids.

"It's good to have me again, you two, step back first."

The two little maids owed their lives to take orders.

"Her Royal Highness, Mr. Cao, Vice Commander Li, the servants are leaving."

"Hey, two young ladies, but I still want pastries."

Seeing that the two little maids were about to leave, Cao Yi took out some cakes from the jade plate and handed them to them.

The two little maids paused, stood still in some embarrassment, raised their eyes and secretly looked at Yan Wanting's expression.

Yan Wanting picked up a teacup on the table to play with, without raising his head, he said frivolously.

"This is Mr. Cao's kindness, you take it and leave."

"Thank you Mr. Cao."

The little maids thanked each other with cakes and left quickly.

As soon as the maids left, Yan Wanting put down the teacup in his hand, looked up at Cao Yi in front of him, and stretched out his hand to signal him to sit down.

"Mr. Cao, yesterday you negotiated a big deal with your father. I wonder if Mr. Cao is interested in negotiating a deal with me."

Cao Yi is such a smart person, Yan Wanting just mentioned this, he seemed to know what Yan Banting was talking about, so he shook his head with a distressed smile.

"Your Highness, the business I discussed with Your Majesty yesterday caused a lot of losses to Cao's Tianyi Pavilion. The reason why Tianyi Pavilion has businesses in various countries is that it has always followed the rules left by the predecessors and never Don't get involved in the affairs of any country, and stay neutral. If Her Royal Highness is talking about business with Cao, Cao will naturally be happy, but if..."

Before Yan Wanting could say anything, she was blocked by Cao Yi. She raised her eyes lightly, and her pair of gentle and smiling phoenix eyes instantly became sharp.

"If Ben Gong says, you have to talk about this business, or you have to talk about it if you don't."

Cao Yi was still smiling, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, he seemed not afraid of the threat in Yan Banting's words.

"The princess is too domineering."

Yan Wanting didn't seem to have much patience, she hummed softly, full of threats.

"Mr. Cao, you are now in Yan Palace."

Cao Yi stretched out his hands to stroke the hair on his shoulders, raised his head and smiled lightly, and said in a drawn out voice.

"His Royal Highness, you probably know better than anyone else how big Tianyi Pavilion's business is in the country of Yan."

Yan Wanting raised his lips, not annoyed, but smiled happily.

"Oh, Mr. Cao is threatening me."

"As Her Royal Highness said, Cao is now in Yan Palace. Besides, Cao is just a businessman with no strength to restrain a chicken. Even if Cao has a hundred courage, Cao will not dare to threaten Her Highness. "

Yan Wanting knew that Cao Yi was an extremely smart and conceited person, and some small tricks and tricks to recruit people would not work for Cao Yi.

Tianyi Pavilion has existed for such a long time, but it has never conspired with any court forces, that is, every pavilion master knows how to balance and walk freely in the gaps between countries.

The fall and rise of the country did not seem to have affected the forces in the world at all, which shows how many smart people there are in Tianyi Pavilion.

Yan Wanting stopped making repeated attempts and said bluntly.

"Mr. Cao, you are a smart person. I don't want to go around in circles with you. Let me tell you the truth, the world may not be peaceful. If Mr. Cao's Tianyi Pavilion is still the same as before, staying out of things and only doing business, I'm afraid it won't work. gone."

Cao Yi lowered his head and picked up a teacup in front of him, and smiled with raised lips.

"Your Highness, when will the world be peaceful?"

Yan Wanting picked up the teapot and filled Cao Yi's cup with tea.

"It seems that Mr. Cao is still confident that Tianyi Pavilion will be safe and sound in the following troubled times."

"Tianyi Pavilion only does business, and there are disputes in the court. As long as Tianyi Pavilion remains neutral according to the rules and does not get involved, it will be safe and sound."

"But if I insist on involving Tianyi Pavilion."

With a slight shake of his hand, a splash of warm tea landed on the back of Cao Yi's hand. He lowered his head and chuckled and reached out to wipe it away.

"Your Highness, you know that Cao has heard your words countless times."

When he looked up again, the smile in Cao Yi's eyes became much more serious.

"If Her Royal Highness has the ability to involve Tianyi Pavilion, then Cao will wait and see."

"it is good."
