Princess and the General

Chapter 407: 262 It's time to stand out (second watch)

Views:

After leaving Dongling Palace, Chen Jingxing wiped off his sweat.

"Princess, did you speak too harshly just now? If Emperor Ning became angry for a while... our million-strong army is not around."

Yu Fu couldn't help laughing, "Master Chen is also afraid sometimes? You didn't see the way the officials in the Cai Palace looked at you, full of admiration and awe."

Chen Jingxing was a little embarrassed, "No matter how scared you are in your heart, you can't show it on your face, otherwise, wouldn't it be disgraceful to His Highness, and even more disgraceful to me, Bei Li? As an envoy, I can't show a trace of fear even if I die. "

Yu Fu couldn't help nodding his head in admiration, thinking that Chen Jingxing, as an envoy, could be called a capable minister of the previous generation, and given time, he would surely leave his name in history.

She slowly explained: "I have been in Dongling for many years, and I know Ning Chengzhi very well. When he was a prince, he was determined to seize power, but at least he never used any dishonorable methods. He is a cowardly person in essence. He was enthroned by the support of Zhongliang in the court. If he had his own ability, he would have died. He is different from Emperor Kun. I still have three respects to Emperor Kun. Why should I treat people like Ning Chengzhi with good words? ?Speaking harshly is the quickest way."

Chen Jingxing nodded, "Your Highness knows Emperor Ning better, so he can prescribe the right medicine. But Yin Shoufu is the most troublesome person. Why didn't His Highness threaten Emperor Ning to convict him before leaving?"

"Do you think Ning Chengzhi will let Yin Shuo do as he pleases?"

Yu Fu smiled, "As long as he sees Eunuch Chi's corpse with his own eyes, Yin Shuo will not be able to escape punishment. Why should I say so much, if he loses all his face, he will act out of righteous indignation."

Chen Jingxing said with a smile: "The minister was only afraid that His Highness would lose his mind because of the people in Guhou's Mansion. It turns out that His Highness still has a sense of proportion in his heart, so I can rest assured."

Yu Fu smiled faintly, "I want to keep each of them safe, without making a single mistake, how dare you lose your mind?"

The team headed towards Guhou's Mansion, attracting crowds of people to watch along the way and discussing it a lot.

Yu Fu opened the corner of the curtain, and the sharp-eyed people recognized her face, shouting "Princess Zhenjiang".

Like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, the shouts of the crowd became louder and louder, Yu Fu suddenly remembered the scene at the execution ground, and the voice of the people shouting "Guhou Ye".

No matter what tricks Yin Shuo used to pour dirty water on Gu Hou's mansion, the common people had a mirror in their hearts to distinguish right from wrong.

Yufu put down the car curtain, with tears in his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Chen Jingxing looked out of the sedan chair, and couldn't help but sigh, "I never thought His Highness would be so loved by the people in Dongling, and the people would recognize you just by showing one side in the sedan chair."

Yu Fu couldn't help thinking back to the time when the first emperor gave her a dragon boat to swim in the West Lake, how she commanded the Imperial Guard Army and the Lin'an Mansion to maintain law and order when the imperial capital was in chaos, and how Gu Shubai collected the fruit from the roadside vendors for her. Thinking of the fact that she ordered someone to smash the Yuci treasure and throw it outside the gate of Guhou's mansion...

The people of the imperial capital saw all these things, how could they not know Yufu

"Princess, save Lord Gu, save Lord Gu!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, Yu Fufu opened the curtain of the car again, and smiled towards the source of the voice.

She will, she came back to save Gu Huaijiang and the others.

The guard of honor was delayed on the road for a long time because of the crowds of the common people. It was not until the Protectorate Army thought there was a disturbance that they came to defend it that they realized that it was the common people who were welcoming Prince Beili and his party.

Mo Huangsha ordered the soldiers to block the people on both sides of the road, and immediately went to the bright yellow sedan chair, got off the horse and cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness is frightened, the road ahead is clear, Your Highness walk slowly."

"Mo Huangsha, don't you remember Bengong?"

The familiar voice was slightly smiling, and Mo Huangsha raised his head in disbelief, only to realize that the person in the sedan chair was Yufu!

"Princess?! You, how could you..."

Yu Fu has always been grateful to him for agreeing to help Gu's army raise troops that night. Although this matter was stopped by Gu Huaijiang and ended without a problem, she will always remember Mo Huangsha's help in her heart.

She smiled faintly, "It seems that General Mo has been promoted to an official position, but he still only cares about military affairs as before, and he doesn't know the news of the court at all."

At this moment, even the people in the imperial capital know that the former Zhenjiang Princess is the current Prince Beili, and he, who is a military general in the court, still looks at a loss.

"I still have to look back at the Hou's Mansion, so I'll take the first step."

Yu Fu smiled at him, lowered the car curtain, and the team continued towards Guhou's mansion.

Mo Huangsha stood on the spot and stared stupidly, thinking of the scene when Yufu summoned him and the west door and window of Lin'an Mansion into Guhou Mansion, he couldn't help but slapped himself on the forehead heavily.

"Should have seen it earlier, is she a thing in the pool..."

Before arriving at Guhou's mansion, the attendants reported from outside the car: "Princess, Guhou and others are waiting outside the gate of the mansion."

Yu Fu lifted the curtain of the car and said in astonishment: "Is the general personally waiting outside the door?"

"Yes, there are also the young masters of Guhou Mansion."

She hurriedly said: "Go over!"

Yu helped get off the sedan chair, and saw Gu Huaijiang's people bowing and saluting outside the gate of the mansion, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, "What is the general doing?"

Chen Jingxing hurriedly lifted Gu Jiuge and others up for Yu Fu, and said in a low voice: "Princess treats you like your own flesh and blood, please hurry up."

Gu Huaijiang got up slowly, and said with a smile: "Etiquette cannot be abolished. You must know that there is no precedent in Dongling for a princess to be the prince. If you want to stand up, you have to ignore etiquette."

It turned out that he was worried that Yufu would be looked down upon by Dongling's courtiers, so he specially led Gu Jiuge and others to greet him, and followed the etiquette.

Yu Fu bit her lip slightly, let go of the hand supporting him, "I understand."

Gu Huaijiang and others stepped sideways, Yu Fu walked towards the mansion first, Chen Jingxing and Ji Chengfa followed closely behind, Gu Huaijiang and others entered the door last.

The servants of the concierge closed the door of the mansion, and the heavy vermilion nanmu gate slowly closed, completely isolating the inside of the mansion from the outside.

Only then did Yu Fu turn around, when she was about to bow down, Gu Huaijiang had already held her hand, "Now that the door is closed, why should the whole family salute again?"

Yu Fu said: "It was my fault that I left the mansion without reporting it before. It is my fault that I have been concealing my identity for many years. General, do you blame me?"

She looked at Gu Jiuge and the others, her aggrieved eyes suddenly looked like Yu Fu from her childhood, Chen Jingxing couldn't help lowering her head and chuckling.

He followed Yufu from Xikun to Dongling, and had seen Yufu's clever appearance dealing with Emperor Kun in every possible way, and also seen her majestic appearance in Dongling's court hall. There is such an innocent look.

"Okay, stop talking silly."

Gu Jiuge patted her head, "Everyone is a family, who would think you ran away secretly by yourself? We just didn't expect you to come back in this way."

"Hello!"

A disturbing voice sounded, and everyone looked towards the wall not far away, only to see Yuehu riding on the wall, "Your elder brother asked me to tell you, who allowed you to touch Yufu's head?"

Gu Jiuge hurriedly withdrew his hand, Gu Yixi said: "Big brother? Where is big brother?"

Yuehu turned his head to the wall and said, "Your second brother took back his hand, your sixth brother asked where you are, how do you answer?"

Gu Shubai's face was full of black lines, "Miss Hard Work has sent a message, wouldn't it be better for you to take me in directly?"

Isn't it just to bully him that he hasn't recovered his martial arts and can't jump on the wall

Seeing his anxious appearance, Yuehu laughed, leaped down and grabbed his arm and brought him up to the wall, pushed him lightly, and Gu Shubai, who was caught off guard, fell to the ground.

Everyone exclaimed, fortunately, the members of the Gu family's army have all learned how to fall off a horse, even if they don't have martial arts, they won't be injured if they fall from a place as high as the top of the wall.

Gu Shubai got up from the ground, patted the mud on his body, and looked at Yuehu with a smile, "Brother, is this too rude?"

Yuehu's face paled, and she immediately gritted her teeth.

"Brother!"

Gu Jiuge and others stepped forward to surround him, there was endless talk, Gu Shubai stepped forward and knelt down in front of Gu Huaijiang, "Father is worried, it is the child who is not filial."

"It's good to be safe, it's good to be safe. Has the injury on your body recovered?"

Gu Huaijiang helped him up, and the latter smiled slightly: "It's almost done, but the martial arts have not recovered yet, and it will take a few days."

Yu Fu said: "Let's go into the house and talk, Housekeeper Qi, please tidy up a yard for Mr. Chen and the others to live in."

Qi An bowed and said: "The courtyard where Miss Yin lived was clean, if you don't mind, please stay there."

Chen Jingxing nodded at him, "As long as there is a place to stay."

Ji Chengfa also clamored to move from the post house to live with Guhou's mansion, and after getting Yu Fu's acquiescence, he immediately took people back to the post house to pack his luggage.

That night, all the members of Guhou Mansion reunited after a long absence, and gathered in the upper room to talk all night.

From how Gu Shubai was assassinated and how he was rescued to Xikun, all the way to how Yufu used the ghost magic box to leave the imperial capital, how to go to Xikun to successfully take Gu Shubai away from Emperor Kun, and how everyone in Guhou's mansion was doing. Wronged and imprisoned by unwarranted perjury, how did Mr. Ji and others be forced to leave the court by Yin Shuo's slander...

These days are like a dream, and everyone still feels unreal after talking about it from beginning to end.

But they're most interested in—

"Xiao Yufu, it's hard for you to hide it from us. For a while, we all thought you were the princess of Xikun, or the daughter of a noble family of Xikun, and we didn't dare to speak ill of Xikun in front of you. It turns out that you are not Xikun. Not from Kun, but from the mysterious Beili."

When Gu Yi said this, Yu Fu realized later, and then understood why they often spoke well of Xi Kun for a while.

It turned out to be because of this.

Gu Xiangdao: "Yes, when I was in prison, my father once guessed that you were from Beili, thinking that you escaped from the imperial capital just to go back to Beili and invite this prince to be a rescuer. I didn't expect you to be that prince yourself. It's amazing!"

Gu Wenqing said: "So our family will not only get married to Immortal Valley, but also be married to the royal family of Beili. By the way, does the marriage between father and God of Medicine still count? Will your father and mother recognize it?"

Gu Shubai winked at him, shook his head slightly, Gu Wenqing didn't realize what happened, just listened to Yu Fu said: "My father and mother were martyred in the middle school rebellion a few years ago, I left the immortal At that time in the Gu. At that time, the rebels in the middle school wanted to find me, and the master sent me out of the Immortal Valley for safety reasons. Unexpectedly, I came to Dongling. At that time, I didn’t know that the rebel forces in the middle school could be wiped out. In order not to implicate the Guhou Mansion , so I dare not enter the Gu family tree—"

She looked at Gu Huaijiang with calm eyes, "I dare not call you father."

With just a few words, everyone knows that Bei Li seems to be powerful, and it turns out that there is such a mess in the country. Yu Fu, as the crown prince, has not been in the country for many years, and even if he returns in the future, he may not be able to take power smoothly.

Her identity is not as glamorous and honorable as it seems.

Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down, Yu Fu changed the subject with a smile, "Third brother must be very upset, he was injured today. He must regret not participating in tonight's conversation when he wakes up tomorrow, and missed a lot of things!"

"No!"

Gu Yi said with a smirk: "If the third brother asks me tomorrow, I will tell him only after he has been ripped off!"

Everyone has worked very hard these days, coupled with the joy of reuniting after a long absence, they had a long talk all night, and they all went to bed much later the next day.

Apart from the soldiers sent by Ning Chengzhi to guard Guhou's mansion, there are also soldiers from Bei Li who accompanied him. They were energetic and mighty.

Yu Fu didn't come back for a long time, lying on the bed in the west wing had a sweet dream, all the hard work of traveling for days was gone.

Half dreaming and half awake, something hot and humid had been wiped on her face, Yufu thought it was Lianzhu and the others wiping her face in a daze, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

They would never disturb her sleep when they had nothing to do, so why would they bother her when they knew that they had worked hard on the road

She immediately opened her eyes vigilantly, only to see two groups of fluffy white shadows squeezing back and forth in front of her. Someone licked her face with a tongue, which made her drool all over her face.

Yu Fu breathed a sigh of relief, hugged a fox and a dog, and rolled on the bed, "Fat five fat nine! Oh, why did Fat Five become so fat?"

She hugged the little white fox and looked closely. Before she left, Fat Wu was still slender and slim, with a pair of seductive fox eyes. It's been more than a month since I saw him, and the fox's eyes have been squeezed into two lines by the fat on his face, turning into silly squinting eyes.

This is simply a replica of Fat Nine, it is difficult to distinguish between you and me when the two are rolled into a ball.

Lianzhu and the others heard the commotion in the room and came in to serve them. Seeing that there was a person, a fox and a dog rolling around on the bed, they couldn't help but wonder, "When did Fat Five and Fat Nine come in?"

Yu Fu looked at them, "Haven't you all seen it?"

Lianbi put the washing items on the shelf, stepped forward and carried them off the bed, "The servants have been waiting outside for the lady... until His Highness wakes up. Who knows when they sneaked in at some time, and surprised His Highness. Dream."

Yu Fuzheng stretched comfortably, and when she heard the address in her mouth, she immediately put down her hands, "It's still the same address as usual, and you don't have to care about etiquette in Guhou's mansion."

Lianbi smiled shyly, "Yes, Miss, are you going to get up?"

"I wanted to sleep for a while, but who knew that the two of them broke in, how could they still sleep? It's time to get up, the execution ground and the court hall were messy yesterday, and there must be a conclusion today."

Yufu took off the quilt by herself, and the two of them rushed forward to wait for her to change and wash her clothes. Lianzhu wanted to comb Yufu's hair, but she stopped her with a wave of her hand, "Let Yaolan come in and comb, she can do Beili's hairstyle."

Lianzhu paused for a moment, and then realized that Yufu's current identity is the prince of Beili, Dong Linghe should dress up to match her identity, so she nodded and exited the room.

Yu Fu looked around, the clothes, shoes, socks, and jewelry she used to wear in the west wing room were not suitable for use now, so she had to use the ones that Chen Jingxing brought for her from Beili.

Yao Lan came in bouncingly, with some food in her hand, and a piece of food stuffed in her mouth, "Miss, there has been no one in the house to buy fresh food for a while, this is something that Manager Qi went out to buy early this morning. Breakfast. The servants tasted it for the young lady, and it tasted very good."

Yu Fu raised his eyes and saw that it was sour pear cake, and it is very appetizing to eat it in the sweltering weather.

She raised her hand to beck Yaolan to come over and comb her hair, and then asked Lianbi: "The generals and the others have been in prison these days, how are you living in the mansion?"

Lianbi's eyes turned red, recalling the scene when Gu Huaijiang and others were imprisoned, she still has lingering fears, "The servants are all well, Lord Hou has already expected the day of imprisoning, and has arranged everything in the mansion. We servants All the servants got a lot of money, Master Hou said it was severance pay, but we didn't want to leave. The mansion was not confiscated after all, and it was led by the steward Qi. We used the money to live as usual, waiting for the masters to come back. But the master Since we are not here, Manager Qi is afraid that our actions will be conspicuous, so he seldom lets people from the house go out."

Yu Fu nodded, strangely saying that Yao Lan said that the mansion hadn't bought fresh food for a while.

Yao Lan put down the comb, and said quite confidently: "Miss, do you see that my hands are not used? A few days ago, I specially asked Mr. Chen's maid for advice, and I learned it very carefully!"

Yu Fu stood up slowly, and her figure was reflected in the huge bronze mirror.

Nine phoenixes swaying toward the sun on the noble Beili palace bun are shining brightly, reflecting a bright yellow palace skirt with wide sleeves and rolling edges, which is as dazzling as the morning sun.

She turned around in satisfaction, "From now on, you don't have to worry about what is conspicuous or not, Lianbi, just tell Manager Qi what to do. Guhou Mansion has been keeping a low profile for too long, it's time to be conspicuous."
