Lu Lixing didn't even dare to raise his head, his heart seemed to jump out. He didn't intend to get involved in these things, but it was too difficult to get away, and he didn't expect something to happen!
Hearing this, Qin Yan glanced at her, then suddenly turned his gaze to the general behind, "Send someone to send the princess back to the palace."
The latter froze for a moment, then immediately nodded, "Yes!"
Afterwards, several forbidden soldiers came towards Liu Yin. She was about to say something, but seeing so many people there, she still followed out of the boat without saying a word.
There was already a large area of forbidden troops guarding outside, and after returning to the shore, Liu Yin was sent back to the palace in a carriage, but her heart was full of apprehension, she felt that her cousin was going to die.
In fact, rationally speaking, she shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing. After all, being wise and safe is the most important thing, but her parents are so kind to her. No good either.
The more she thought about it, the more bored she became. When she returned to the East Palace, she changed her clothes and hurried to Changchun Palace. It would be too fake if she pretended nothing happened, after all, such a big thing happened.
The queen seemed to be asleep, but Hong Xing also knew that she must have something important to come before midnight, so she went to pass the message inside, and after a while, Liu Yin was passed in.
The candles in the inner hall were dimly lit, and all the lights in the palace were extinguished at this time. The queen was wearing a coat and sitting on a soft couch. When she saw her coming in, she smiled sleepily and said, "I already know that you and the prince are out of the palace." Yes, it would be nice for him to take you out for a walk."
As the lord of the harem, Liu Yin naturally couldn't hide such things from the queen, but she still told what happened today. The queen's face immediately changed when she heard the words, and her expression became solemn.
"Is this true?" She narrowed her eyes.
Liu Yin leaned forward and sat down looking around, and said in a serious voice, "Can I still lie to my aunt?"
The atmosphere in the entire inner hall was suddenly solemn, and the empress stared at the teacup in front of her with a solemn face. After a while, she turned her gaze to Liu Yin, "Listen to me, don't worry about your father's words, you will decide the affairs of the Liu family." You can't intervene, and you can't let the prince have a grudge against you. No matter how important the Liu family's century-old foundation is, it is not as important as you and the prince's heirs. Once you give birth to a child, our Liu family will have a glorious day no matter how poor it is. interests and messed up the overall situation."
Looking at each other, Liu Yin didn't speak, but her mood was very complicated, what kind of fate is she, she has to wander between traitors every day, and she is not human inside and out.
Forget it, forget it, she doesn't care about it, she won't care about her parents' affairs in the future, she doesn't have such a big heart as her father, she wants to interfere in everyone's affairs, she is a weak woman, she doesn't care So much to do.
"I also think what my aunt said is right. I will act as if nothing happened, but Uncle Tang is indeed too much. He knows that the emperor has begun to fear the Liu family, but he still wants to do such a thing. This is not for my father. Looking for trouble, according to me, father should clean up the ethos in the clan, it's better to do it yourself than let the emperor do it later." She propped her head and stared out of the window blankly.
The queen also sighed, with helplessness on her dignified and beautiful face, she just took her hand and said softly: "Some things are not as simple as you think. There are no dirty officials in the court. It's just that our Liu family tree is the most eye-catching."
That being said, Liu Yin is still very helpless. When working in the past, she only faced social pressure, and at most she was only poor. Now that she is fine, she can't even save her life if she is not good.
I don't know what came to mind, the queen suddenly got up and went to the dressing table, took out a bag of something from it, and handed it to her niece meaningfully, "You take this back, as long as you scatter it in the air, the prince will not doubt it, after all you Not consummating the house all the time is not an option.”
Liu Yin: "!!!"
Has this bloody plot finally happened to me? !
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yin didn't reach out to pick it up, but quickly stood up and took a few steps back, "I... I don't need this thing, it's too despicable."
After finishing speaking, she blushed and ran out, leaving the queen behind to look helplessly at Mammy Liu, who nodded understandingly.
There is no way to be bright in this palace. The upright people have already become a pile of dry bones under the red wall. My niece doesn't care, but the queen has to stabilize the position of the princess for her.
Back in the East Palace, the prince really didn't come back, Liu Yin mourned for her uncle in her heart for a while, and then went to bed, since she couldn't do anything anyway, she was self-aware about this.
The night was heavy with dew, and Liu Yin didn't wake up until noon the next day. She thought that her cousin would definitely die, but Nanny Liu told her unexpected news.
"It was reported in the early morning that Mr. Liu was demoted because of his negligence of duty and ineffective enforcement of the law. Other officials involved in this case were handed over to Dali Temple for investigation. In the end, the Wushamao might not be able to be kept." Madam Liu said Comb her hair in a bun and said seriously.
Hearing this, Liu Yin was a little surprised holding a hairpin, it seems that the prince didn't kill all of them, it must be because of her aunt.
"However..." Liu Mama suddenly lowered her head and said softly, "Today Concubine Lu sent food to the Yizheng Hall. You can see how calculating the other party is, so people outside only think that Concubine Lu is virtuous, so how can they remember it?" You are the princess."
Cursing her lips, Liu Yin looked at herself in the mirror and continued to pick up the hairpin, "What can I do? Prescribe the medicine like my aunt said? I wouldn't do it even if I was killed."
Besides, yesterday she spoke for her cousin, the prince must have been angry, and now he might suspect that he had ulterior motives.
Seeing that she still didn't care, Mammy Liu became anxious, "Have you lost your temper with His Highness again?"
The corners of her lips pursed, Liu Yin didn't speak, and finally picked out a plain hairpin on the dressing table, "I'm wearing this today."
Nanny Liu didn't answer, but persuaded her earnestly, "It's not that I talk too much, people in this palace are always fearful of words, you are not afraid of being said, but Master Liu and the others are different, even if you just do it You also have to maintain your superficial honor by showing off, Lord Liu and the Empress have spent a lot of effort in order to make you a crown princess."
Hearing the other party's words, Liu Yin just changed the hairpin sullenly, and muttered: "I didn't say no, it's not that the prince's brother has been in the Palace of Political Affairs all day, I can't go there to find him ?”
Isn't it just showing courtesy? Of course she knows that she can't stop showing her loyalty, otherwise, wouldn't all her previous efforts be wasted.
Seeing her look away, Nanny Liu continued to comb her hair with a smile, and insisted on finding her a palace dress with bright colors. Liu Yin is a puppet, so she said that Nanny Liu shouldn't be following her Myself, now I have to live under surveillance every day.
After reading books all day in the room, it was near evening that Xiyun hurriedly sent the news that the prince had finally returned.
Heaving a sigh of relief, she carried the pastries made in the kitchen and walked to the study. Unlike the past, Xiao Luzi let her in very readily this time, but Liu Yin was a little guilty. Seeing that he was intact, it seemed that she Throwing the pot away, the prince didn't punish the other party.
Slowly opened the door, only to see the candles burning in the room, the man in front of the desk was still looking at the official document, frowning from time to time, as if he had encountered something that displeased him, for some reason, Liu Yin was inexplicably nervous, after all, she I spoke for Uncle Tang yesterday, and I don't know if the other party doubted me.
Taking a deep breath, she immediately walked over with the food box, her voice softened, "Cousin?"
After the words were finished, the room was still silent. Liu Yin swallowed her throat, and then quickly came behind the other party, and patted his shoulders attentively, "Your Highness?"
She moved her head and called softly: "Brother Prince?"
The man lowered his head and looked at the official document as usual, then suddenly put his hand against her head, his thin lips slightly parted, "Go back and rest if you have nothing to do."
Liu Yin blinked, her gaze casually glanced at the official document in his hand, as if she saw her father's name, just as she was about to take a closer look, she found that the folder was suddenly closed, and the man was looking at her quietly.
The four eyes met, and the little face was filled with apprehension: "Are you... are you angry?"
As she said that, she said seriously again: "I know that I shouldn't speak for Uncle Tang yesterday, but I just blurted it out subconsciously. I swear, I have absolutely no other intentions. Since I am married to His Highness, I am naturally His Highness's man. It's His Highness's ghost to die, so you must not doubt the loyalty of your concubine!"
Those clear eyes were full of his own reflection, Qin Yan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he continued to look down at the document.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Liu Yin became more and more uneasy, why is it so difficult to be a princess, she didn't do anything, she just coaxed men every day.
"Dinner available?" His voice was low.
Liu Yinzheng was still thinking about what to say, when he heard the voice, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "I ate it when I came here, but if my cousin didn't eat it, I'll let someone pass it on now?"
After closing the official document, the man suddenly got up and straightened his sleeves, "Then eat some more with Gu."
Liu Yin: "..."
It is said that a man has a needle in his heart. This is the first time she has seen such a moody man. Is she angry or not
After leaving the study room, the bright moonlight outside filled the ground, and the evening breeze was blowing on his face. Liu Yin followed behind him, looking at the lonely man in front of him, his expression was extraordinarily complicated for a moment.
I endured it and endured it, and finally couldn't help but take a step forward, with pink lips slightly parted, "Your Highness... Are you afraid that I'm a spy?"
She didn't believe that the prince trusted her completely, and she must have been on guard against her for a long time in her heart.
A soft voice rang in her ears, Qin Yan glanced at her indifferently, "So you still have self-knowledge."
Liu Yin's eyes widened, and his brain started to run rapidly. At this moment, a mellow voice suddenly sounded in his ear, "There are some spies, and I can only keep them by my side forever."
The huge East Palace was silent, and Xiao Luzi and Xiyun in the back all backed away a lot. Liu Yin clutched his sleeves with both hands, and walked in small steps with a strange expression. This is all right. I won't give you a chance to explain, so I will give it to you. She put on her spy hat.
Cursing her lips, looking at the long corridor ahead, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the other's sleeve, and asked curiously, "Why does Your Highness want to eat in our courtyard?"
How troublesome it is to have to go so far.
Hearing the clear and ignorant female voice, Qin Yan couldn't help but stare at her, but seeing that little white face full of curiosity, he couldn't help frowning slightly, "What do you think?"
