"It's not my turn to tell the princess about the truth!" Prime Minister Right raised his eyebrows, although his tone was indifferent, the coldness in his eyes made Princess Mingyu take a step back unconsciously, instantly shocked by this momentum, and murmured I can't speak.
"Mingyu!" The barbarian prince stood up suddenly, and grabbed Princess Mingyu, "Emotions are about pleasing each other, a twisted melon is not sweet, forget it."
Princess Mingyu looked at the Prime Minister with some reluctance, and raised her eyes to meet the fierce and warning gaze of the barbarian prince, sending a chill down her spine.
"Princess Mingyu has a true temperament, so there is no need for the prince to reprimand her. After all, Princess Mingyu is still young." Emperor Dongming said a few words of enlightenment.
The barbarian prince nodded, "I am laughing at you all. In the barbarians, women have the right to pursue happiness. In Mingyu's heart, she must be admiring the right minister as a great hero, so she was impulsive."
The barbarian prince found a reasonable excuse for himself, got rid of the siege, and also flattered the right minister by the way, which shows that he is not bad.
Princess Mingyu was dragged to sit next to her by the barbarian prince, with a weary face, she couldn't lift her spirits up, her eyes were always fixed on the right-hand man. Could it be that she is not worthy of the right-hand man as a dignified princess? What is wrong with her? up
The more Princess Mingyu thought about it, the more wronged she became. She had been looking at Prime Minister Right all night, but Prime Minister Right never looked up.
After a banquet ended, the barbarian prince dragged Princess Mingyu back to the house, "Mingyu, this is Dong Ming, don't forget your mission!"
Princess Mingyu couldn't help crying, she was out of breath from crying, compared to the excitement and apprehension before she came here, now she was poured a basin of cold water severely, and her heart was disheartened.
She volunteered Dong Ming for the right chancellor, but now she was rejected, Princess Mingyu only felt that her coming was meaningless, she didn't want to marry anyone in Dong Ming at all.
"Brother, I'm not going to kiss anymore, can you take me back?"
Princess Mingyu grabbed the barbarian prince's arm, begging.
"Slap!" The barbarian prince raised his hand and slapped Princess Mingyu on the face, "Go back and continue to be your princess, don't dream, you have seen a few princesses who came and went back, are you Are you kidding the barbarian, the barbarian would only be ashamed to have a princess like you!"
The barbarian prince looked angry and looked at Princess Mingyu with hatred.
Princess Mingyu was caught off guard by a slap, and her small face quickly swelled up. She was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses, biting her lips tightly to shed tears.
She came here with the mission of a barbarian, and if she went back, it would be a great shame. Princess Mingyu finally stopped making noise, but became very quiet and a little depressed.
Suddenly his eyes lit up, "Brother, send someone to find out who the right minister is looking for, or is she deliberately fooling me?"
The barbarian prince glanced at Princess Mingyu, "No matter who it is, it has nothing to do with you. Once the Prime Minister has made a decision, he will not change it. You should give up on it. Mingyu, if you don't think about yourself, you will You should think about your concubine."
When Princess Mingyu heard that the whole world was about to collapse, it had to be said that it was the barbarian prince who pinched Princess Mingyu's weakness, making her unable to speak all of a sudden, and not daring to show her thoughts.
"Yes, Mingyu shouldn't be capricious, everything should be arranged by elder brother."
Only then did the barbarian prince heave a sigh of relief, and asked the maid to keep an eye on Princess Mingyu before leaving the house.
Princess Mingyu was watched and couldn't go out to inquire, so she had to walk around the room anxiously and helplessly.
Right Prime Minister's Mansion
After hearing the news, Mrs. Xiao immediately sent someone to invite Prime Minister Right over to ask what happened, "What the hell is going on? How could a princess fall in love with you? Son, mother can't stand the trouble, you I don't have any objection to marrying any mother, but this disposition must be good, so don't let the Right Prime Minister's House stir up trouble."
Mrs. Xiao had a very bad impression of the princess. She subconsciously thought of Qingle's mother, County Lord Jinshu. If she wanted to marry such a daughter-in-law, she would be pissed off sooner or later!
The Prime Minister on the right smiled, "Mother, don't worry, my son knows it well."
Mrs. Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when she got the guarantee, and glanced at the right face, "You are not too young, and you don't have a son-in-law yet, what does it look like without a mistress at home..."
Mrs. Xiao began to miss it again, and began to urge the right minister to find a wife all day long. Unfortunately, the right minister just pushed back and forth and was not in a hurry, but it made Mrs. Xiao very worried.
Mrs. Xiao kept inquiring about suitable girls in private, and when she heard that the right lady was filling in the house, she flocked to her, afraid she would be one step too late.
In the past few days, the threshold of phase poisoning was almost broken, and the harassing Mrs. Xiao's ears were not clean. Some people even sent a twelve-year-old girl here in order to climb into the Right Prime Minister's house.
The angry Mrs. Xiao almost cursed, she was looking for a daughter-in-law, not a child bride, who was younger than Xiao Jiu.
Since then, Mrs. Xiao didn't dare to inquire any more, but she was anxious. Seeing the old lady next to her knees surrounded by children and grandchildren, the grandson was about to marry, but she couldn't even find a shadow. fire.
This time, he grabbed Prime Minister Right and scolded him furiously.
"Mother knows that you have Xiaojiu's mother in your heart, but she has passed away for so many years. When did mother force you? If there is an heir in the prime minister's house today, you will never marry for life, and mother will never say anything, but the Xiao family's heir Can't stop, how do you let mother face the ancestors of the Xiao family in the future."
Mrs. Xiao beat her chest and stamped her feet, and sighed, her eyes were red with anger, "You can bring it up yourself, or your mother will arrange it for you. You can't delay any longer. When mother kicks her legs, she hasn't seen Xiao yet. Family heir, do you want your mother to die in peace?"
"Mother!" The Prime Minister on the right sighed, "My son didn't say no to marrying. Today, in front of civil and military officials, my son promised to marry a wife. And don't worry, you will see your future wife in a few days."
Prime Minister Right had no choice but to let Mrs. Xiao know that in this world, Prime Minister Right is the only person who will not refute, and that is Mrs. Xiao.
Mrs. Xiao cast a half-believing glance at the right face, "Although mother is old, she is not confused at all. Don't expect to deceive mother to make mother happy!"
"Mother, how dare your son fool you in front of you."
After the words fell, Mrs. Xiao was relieved. Her son knew it himself. He would never say a word about unreasonable things. Once he spoke, he was absolutely sure.
Mrs. Xiao asked again, "Which family girl is it? When did you meet her? Why doesn't your mother know anything about it?"
Prime Minister on the right touched his nose, "Mother, don't be in a hurry, my son promises to welcome you within this year, don't you believe in his vision?"
Only then did Mrs. Xiao nod her head, feeling happy, "Okay, I'll forgive you this time, I've agreed in advance, if a restless person treats Xiao Jiu badly, I will never agree to enter the door!"
"Mother, don't worry!" Mrs. Xiao was willing to let her go only after Prime Minister Right reassured her again and again. Prime Minister Right heaved a sigh of relief when she left the house, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, apparently in a happy mood.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help being curious, so she asked Concubine Xiao for a few words. Concubine Xiao looked confused, and Mrs. Xiao was a little discouraged and very curious about who the woman was.
"It would be best for my father to figure out another marriage as soon as possible. Xiao Jiu always feels uncomfortable when he sees his father alone. If there is a woman by his side, Xiao Jiu will agree with it."
Concubine Xiao wanted to marry Prime Minister Right a long time ago, but she didn't know how to say it. Now that Prime Minister Right can figure it out by himself, Concubine Xiao is very happy.
As the night was dark, Zhao Zun arrived as expected and said something in his arms to Concubine Xiao. Concubine Xiao suddenly asked, "Which girl does my father have a crush on? Do I know her?"
Concubine Xiao recounted the conversation she had with Mrs. Xiao in the afternoon, Zhao Zun's mouth twitched, hesitating whether to speak, but in case the right prime minister's marriage was disturbed, Zhao Zun would probably be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhao Zun shrugged his shoulders, "Father-in-law is so thoughtful that even the emperor can't figure it out, so how would I know? Don't worry, father-in-law will surely hit him once he makes a move, just wait for the tea."
Zhao Zun is by far the most urgent hope that Prime Minister Right can get married as soon as possible. Once he has a daughter-in-law, he should show mercy and let go.
Xiao Concubine looked suspicious, but was quickly fooled by Zhao Zun, afraid that she would continue to question, Zhao Zun didn't dare to stay any longer and left soon.
And he didn't dare to come for a few days in a row, just waiting for Halloween to come and the truth to surface.
Three days later, there was news that Xiyue and her own princess were assassinated in Lincheng, and their lives and deaths are unknown now. The original ten-day journey was dragged on for half a month and it was not finished. The delicate and weak suffered from the wind and cold, unable to hurry, so he could only stop and go along the way.
One of the ministers glanced at the prime minister on the right, and then cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, according to my minister, this Princess Xiyue is clearly delaying time on purpose. Seeing that everyone has arrived in Lincheng, she made another fuss. It's Halloween, there's no sense of sincerity and affection!"
"That's right, Your Majesty, this is too disrespectful to Dongming. The barbaric princess Mingyu and the third princess of Dongchu are not delicate women. They came to Dongming from thousands of miles away. The princess came here to send Dong Ming away, she simply underestimated Dong Ming!"
Several ministers were furious, and it was reasonable to say that the former fifth princess of Xiyue disappeared, and any accident happened.
But it is no coincidence that a minister's daughter is sent here and there are so many moths.
Emperor Dong Ming squinted at Prime Minister Right, he did not forget the agreement with Prime Minister Right, he did not dare to say anything about Princess Xiyue, he just said, "What does Xiang Ye think?"
The prime minister on the right raised his lips, "The emperor, please prepare ten imperial physicians to carry the golden silkworm in a soft sedan chair, and follow the minister to Lincheng in person."
Emperor Dong Ming became more and more puzzled, whether this woman and Prime Minister Right were old acquaintances, and Prime Minister Right never intervened in this kind of crap in the past.
Without waiting for the ministers to refute, Emperor Dong Ming responded as soon as he slapped the table, "Okay, then I will leave this matter to Xiangye, and it is hard for Xiangye to make a trip."
The Prime Minister on the right smiled, "Sharing the emperor's worries is what a humble official should do."
All the ministers were stunned. Is it worth asking the Prime Minister to pick up Princess Xiyue in person? It's a bit flattering Princess Xiyue.
But it's useless to object any more. One has already agreed to go and the other has already agreed. Their opinions are not important at all.
When he stepped down to the right, he appointed ten imperial physicians and hundreds of attendants. Before leaving, the right minister raised his eyebrows, "Everyone prepare a bow and take it with you!"
"yes!"
After getting ready, Prime Minister Right got on his horse and led the people away, and hurried all the way towards Lincheng.
On the city wall, Emperor Dongming saw this posture, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently, "How did this girl offend the right minister, hey!"
Lincheng
"Princess, would you like me to find a local doctor for you?"
Shui Ling was so anxious that she was about to cry, seeing that she was only one city away from arriving in the capital, but at this time her young lady fell down.
The woman's slender body was sitting by the window, covering her mouth and coughing from time to time, her small face was pale, and she looked very weak.
"No need, we are not familiar with the place here, if we meet someone with bad intentions, it will be troublesome."
The woman was none other than Rong Yue, the princess whom Xiyue had just confided and married.
The eldest daughter of General Xiyue Rong, she is very beautiful, because General Rong has been fighting outside all year round and rarely has a housekeeper, Rong Yue's mother died young, and there is a kind-hearted stepmother at home.
The stepmother couldn't tolerate Rong Yue at all, so she gave Rong Yue a pack of cartilage powder and sent her to the sedan chair.
Replacing the fifth princess and going to marry, it can be regarded as removing the thorn in Mrs. Rong's heart.
By the time Rong Yue opened her eyes, she had already walked half of the distance. Along the way, Rong Yue looked for opportunities to escape many times, but unfortunately she was unsuccessful, so she tried every means to delay, otherwise she would have arrived in Kyoto six days ago.
There are still two days until Halloween, and Rong Yue will find a way to delay it, so he is stuck in Lincheng.
"But… ."
"Shui Ling, what if the doctor is deliberately stuffed in, and you give me a pack of poison, and you want me to take it?" Rong Yue raised her eyes and coughed hard, as if she was about to cough up her lungs, and her stunning appearance became more and more obvious pale and weak.
"The matter of the fifth princess has already annoyed Dong Ming. If we encounter another misfortune and Dong Chu succeeds in borrowing troops, then we will be the eternal sinners of Xiyue!"
Shui Ling turned pale when she heard the words, "Princess, you mean that Dong Chu followed us all the way, just waiting for the opportunity to murder us, so as to confuse our purpose?"
Rong Yue nodded, "That's what it means."
"It's because the servants are negligent, or because the princess is considerate." Shui Ling nodded hastily, "Then please bear with me, the princess. When I arrive in the capital, there will naturally be an imperial physician to treat the princess."
Rong Yue shook her head, "It's not hard, this is what I should do, it's just my body that doesn't live up to expectations."
Rong Yue coughed hard, and glanced at Yuma Yu who was beside her with a livid face from the corner of her eyes, "Hey, on the day of Emperor Dongming's birthday, I dragged a sick body to pay my respects, didn't I just want to make fun of it, we are sincere, I'm afraid that I will be misunderstood, but it will be self-defeating."
Mother Yu's face became even uglier when she heard this, and she suppressed her anger. She was originally the dowry of the fifth princess, but now she is Rong Yue's dowry. The person who is about to become a concubine is sick at this time.
The more Nanny Yu urged, the weaker Rong Yue's body was, and she was afraid that she would die if she was tossed all the way to the capital, so she could only let Rong Yue's mind go.
After a while, a servant girl rushed over excitedly, "Princess, Emperor Dongming sent the Prime Minister to pick you up in person!"
Rong Yue stood up immediately when she heard that, her eyes widened, "Come to pick me up?"
Nanny Yu glanced at Rong Yue strangely, Rong Yue immediately covered her mouth and coughed, this time she was really choked.
"That's great. If Prime Minister Right can come to pick up the princess, he will definitely bring the imperial physician, and it will definitely be in time for Halloween the day after tomorrow."
Shui Ling was completely relieved, overjoyed, and Nanny Yu also felt a sense of relief.
But when Rong Yue came back to her senses, her whole body was not well, her little face was gloomy, she had to leave this place of right and wrong, or else she would be caught and made a concubine for the old emperor, it would be better to let her die.
Rong Yue's eyeballs rolled slightly, and she glanced at Shui Ling and Nanny Yu, waiting for it to get dark.
Waiting and waiting, finally hoped that it would be dark, the guards were guarding outside the yard, Rong Yue hadn't had a good rest these past few days, and Shui Ling and Nanny Yu had suffered enough, so she waited for them to rest and prepare to escape.
She has stepped on this courtyard a long time ago. There is a corner door at the back door on the north side, which is separated from a restaurant by a wall. The only difficulty is that there is a small pond. It is because of this pond that no one is guarding it. Where can I escape? It must be successful.
Rong Yue carried the package on her back, groped all the way close to the water's edge in the dark, and ran towards the corner gate tremblingly, finally climbed up the wall of the corner gate, and it seemed that she was about to climb over successfully.
After leaving this yard, she will be completely free, and she is going to complain to her father!
Just as Rong Yue poked her head out, she couldn't help being overjoyed when she saw no one around. She sat on the wall and quickly moved her feet out of the yard.
Just as he was about to jump down, at this moment, there was a bang, and a flame suddenly ignited, illuminating the surroundings as brightly as day.
Rong Yue's voice was tight, and there were a hundred or so guards around, each of them holding a bow and arrow, aiming at him.
A man stood at the head, first of all, the domineering look made people surrender at first glance, the corners of his mouth were raised into a half-smile, like an old fox.
"The princess has a strong figure, and she climbs over the wall very quickly without being sick at all. I don't know where to go with a burden on my back at this late hour?" Prime Minister Right asked with raised eyebrows.
Rong Yue blushed, and was caught on the top of the wall just like that, wishing she could find a crack in the ground and get in.
