King Yi has enough capital, but it does not mean that he will be able to inherit the throne in the end. The emperor will not be reconciled, and the princes will not be reconciled. Sometimes the emperor's edict does not mean absolute. Sending the beauties over here represents the emperor's fear.
But this does not mean that Ning Xueyan regrets it!
She originally came here for revenge, and what the future holds is out of her consideration.
He raised his head indifferently, and the bright girl's eyes under the veil showed incomparably calm and serene, completely unlike the behavior a fourteen-year-old girl should have. She raised her eyes coldly: "As long as the prince doesn't abandon me, I won't Abandon the prince!"
She doesn't want to think too much about what will happen in the future, she only thinks about the immediate interests now, let herself live firmly step by step, go on!
The future is too far away from her... Or, she has no future at all!
The black eyelashes trembled twice, and under the light veil, one can vaguely see the exquisite and beautiful little face, the alluring face that should have been like a fairy, but there is a sense of sadness and no return, more like rushing to the sky. The fighters on the battlefield know that this is a road of no return, but they still go forward bravely!
The handsome man with stern eyes, the corners of his eyes became colder and colder, and there was an almost invisible flash of tenderness in his eyes, but he didn't make things difficult for Ning Xueyan anymore, he hugged her thin shoulders and walked forward, and the people on both sides retreated. bow your head.
The interior of the room is very elegantly furnished. On the floor near the window in the south of the bedroom, there is a couch for concubine Xiang. There are several exquisite styles on the table beside it, like an incense burner in full bloom, exuding a faint fragrance. Behind the couch is a 10% off lady. At the corners of the screen, bead curtains are half-covered, and a large bed can be faintly seen inside. Beside the bed, a light gauze curtain hangs high.
"Is this 'my' residence?" Ning Xueyan asked while walking in.
"Yes, this is the residence of my favorite concubine Xinna." Ao Chenyi walked in, casually sat down on a large nanmu chair, leisurely peeled the grapes on the table, and the corners of her thin lips twitched. hook.
"My lord, are all the beauties bestowed by the emperor so frightened away? You can give away so much at once, can the lord's backyard fit in?" Ning Xueyan sat down on the chair on the other side after finishing watching, Asked somewhat curiously.
"Does the king need to care about whether they can be accommodated?" Ao Chenyi took a slow look at Ning Xueyan, and suddenly the corners of his lips smiled, and there was a coldness in his bewitching and narrow eyes, "I can't live, cut Just drop a few heads."
This is indeed King Yi's answer!
Ning Xueyan sighed, no wonder those guards looked at those beauties just now, as if they were looking at dead people, the emperor sent people to the backyard of Yiwang Mansion over and over again, no matter how many rooms there are, others might still think that the person is the emperor It's a gift, don't neglect it, this master doesn't need to think so much at all.
He was originally the king of Yi with power over the court! I heard that he followed the late emperor into and out of the battlefield when he was still young, and he was even more bloodthirsty and violent. If he disobeyed his intentions a little, he would end badly. He didn't want the beauty sent by the emperor. He wanted to kill and cut him. Words matter.
How could he care about the beauties sent from a few palaces.
"Then why did the prince ask me to come here?" Ning Xueyan smiled, and asked bluntly, "Since the prince has his own way, there is no need to set up a concubine as a target in the open!"
She had an intuition that this person knew all of her thoughts, so she simply confessed her displeasure. In front of this kind of person, it is easier to get a good impression by being honest.
"You are bold, you are not afraid of saying what this king wants, and this king wants your life?" Ao Chenyi took the handkerchief and wiped his hands, and grasped Ning Xueyan's slender hands with his slender and powerful hands. With a half-smile on his wrist, and a half-smile on the corner of his lips, the target actually hit his mark, which is quite clever.
With a little force, Ning Xueyan's wrist immediately felt as if it was about to be broken. It was a heart-rending pain. She was indeed moody. She suppressed the pain on her wrist. Ning Xueyan raised her head, Mo Yu's eyes were as calm as waves, and her words were sincere : "My lord, I am now tied to the same boat as you."
She was telling him her position. In fact, since she got his help, she had to stand by his side. There was no second position to change, so let him make her pretend to be a concubine, and let her deliberately stab him The two beauties pushed her hard, but she obeyed.
Sure enough, she was smart and bold. Ao Chenyi relaxed his hand a little, but still held her wrist. His eyes fell on Ning Xueyan's delicate and beautiful back. When she was there, there were some red and swollen marks from the scratches of sharp fingers.
It landed on the white and tender soft bark, which was extremely conspicuous and uncoordinated.
Well, it's an eyesore!
She reached out to take out a jade bottle from her bosom, stretched out her hand very elegantly, before Ning Xueyan could react, she put a force on her wrist, and she fell into Ao Chenyi's arms, suddenly raised her head to look at the other party, facing Looking at a pair of evil and handsome eyes, he swallowed down his throat with that exclamation.
He quickly picked up some ointment from the jade bottle with his fingers, the milky white transparent ointment, as soon as it fell on the back of Ning Xueyan's injured hand, there was a refreshing coolness immediately, which wiped away the hot pain just now.
"If you hurt your hand, if someone finds out, you will be a waste of chess." Letting go of Ning Xueyan's hand, Ao Chenyi calmly picked up the handkerchief at hand and wiped it, humming softly, his face was cold The bloodthirsty smile made Ning Xueyan understand that what he said was true, if he just played a useless game, needless to say, he would only die.
For Ao Chenyi, people in this world are only useful and useless, if they are classified as useless, they will end up the same as those beauties, and she will not expect him to be any different to waste.
"What does the lord want me to do?" The cold water eyes have regained their calmness, Ning Xueyan sat back on the chair, completely ignoring the ambiguity that Ao Chenyi brought her into his arms just now, this is not in front of people, there is no need to take her Pull it over and apply the medicine.
"Who would know that you were injured?" Ao Chenyi smiled and Mimi leaned back, twitching the corners of her thin lips, sensitively feeling her concentration.
"The people in the palace." Ning Xueyan thought for a while. Although the two beauties were some distance away from the others, they all had ulterior motives and deliberately went to places where there were few people. However, there is no guarantee that the eunuch and the others Beauty, has been paying attention to their movements.
The scars on the hands cannot be hidden from those who care!
"What's going to happen next?" Ao Chenyi's eyes were unclear, and he lowered his eyes to look at the girl's reserved face, and said with a low smile.
"In the prince's backyard, there has never been a woman who made the prince fall in love with him so much, and even killed the two beauties who were sent by the emperor on the spot. There is such a person who can restrain the prince's emotions. If he can control her, it will be inevitable. have an impact on the prince."
Ning Xueyan thought for a while, and then made a serious analysis.
With Ao Chenyi's character, he seems arrogant and reckless, but he is actually shrewd. In addition, the Jinyiwei in the capital is also in his hands. If there is any opposition in the court, he will cut down heavily. No minister dares to stand up against him, and the former emperor also I can't do anything with Ao Chenyi, I have to find something in the backyard, but these beauties all come in vertically and go out horizontally.
No matter how much you give away!
It is impossible for the emperor to blame Ao Chenyi for the beauties being chopped off.
When she was at her wit's end, she heard that Ao Chenyi had newly favored a woman, and she had no choice but to focus on her, so now Ning Xueyan has become a target exposed to everyone's eyes, and she wants to kill this beloved concubine. If Ao Chenyi's heart is disturbed, it's still up to the opponent to control her and bring trouble to Ao Chenyi.
Therefore, from the perspective of the situation, the concubine played by Ning Xueyan is extremely dangerous.
"Aren't you afraid that this king will give you up, and make those people think of themselves first, and then do it?" Ao Chenyi raised his eyebrows, his lips curled up slightly, and there was a wicked and cold-blooded smile, as if he was talking about Ning. Xueyan's life and death are as common as asking about the weather.
"My lord won't!" Ning Xueyan raised Moyu's eyes, and met his lazy and handsome eyes.
"Oh, I don't even know why I don't. Could it be that I don't like you?" Ao Chenyi looked at Ning Xueyan with a smile, waiting for her explanation.
"Those ministers, who does the prince want to deal with? He has his own Jinyiwei. I heard that the people in the Jinyiwei are proficient in eighteen martial arts and are proficient in everything. There is no need for the prince to push me out. If the prince wants to deal with other people, then It's useless to push me out. My identity is just the prince's favorite concubine, not the prince's main concubine. people."
Ning Xueyan looked at Ao Chenyi calmly, and said fluently and calmly.
The evil, cold and bloodthirsty beautiful eyes, full of evil spirit, looked halfway at Ning Xueyan, suddenly stretched out his hand to pick up the face of the girl who was close at hand, his eyes jumped deeply, and then narrowed his eyes: "What Yan'er said Begging to be the only prodigal daughter of the Marquis of the Huguo?"
"No, I want the Huguohou Mansion to be destroyed." Ning Xueyan's eyes changed, she turned her head slightly, avoiding his slender fingers, and said sharply.
There is no need for such a cold-blooded place to exist.
"Okay, I'm waiting for the day when you destroy the Huguohou Mansion." Ao Chenyi laughed, and finally let out a low laugh, and for the first time a pleasant smile appeared on his handsome face.
"Then, what should I do here now? Your favorite concubine, you don't see anyone every now and then, how can you explain to the palace?" Ao Chenyi withdrew his hand, not caring about Ning Xueyan's resistance at all.
"My lord, if you don't blame me, I can give it a try!" Ning Xueyan smiled sweetly, and suddenly reached out to hold Ao Chenyi's retracted big hand.
Ao Chenyi smiled wickedly, but before he could speak, Ning Xueyan pulled his hand to his mouth and bit down viciously. On the back of the slender snow-white hand, blood spread out immediately...
☆, 124
"Bold!" The sword came out from the eunuch and guard standing on the side, and in an instant, two knives and two swords lay across Ning Xueyan's throat.
The people Ao Chenyi brought by his side were naturally masters. Under the murderous aura, he sealed his throat with his sword fingers and crossed his jade neck with a knife.
"You are so bold!" Ao Chenyi waved away those swords with his other free hand, and in those evil eyes that one dare not look directly at, there is a thick dark and bloody aura, Lock Ning Xueyan tightly, as if the next step is to cut off Ning Xueyan's slender neck.
It looks more like a bloody flower blooming in hell, the beauty is weird and coquettish, like the soul-sucking Shura...
The guards looked at me, and I looked at you. Although they retreated, they stared at Ning Xueyan vigilantly, for fear that Ning Xueyan would hurt their noble master again.
Ning Xueyan raised her mouth, and there was a bright red color on the veil at the corner of her lips, which slowly hung down from the corner of her lips, with a strange and desolate feeling, reflecting her black jade-like pupils , becoming more and more clear, as if he didn't see the bloodlust in Ao Chenyi's eyes, he smiled sweetly and looked at Ao Chenyi neither humble nor overbearing.
"Didn't the prince ask me how to deal with myself next? I think this is the best way!"
"You dare to hurt me?" Ao Chenyi curled up his thin lips, sneered with anger, and his pupils were like ghosts.
"If the lord doesn't want others to be hurt, who in this world can hurt the lord!" Ning Xueyan was indifferent, stretched out her white and tender hand to wipe the gauze at the corner of her lips, and the blood condensed between her white and tender fingers ,
"If the lord's concubine hurts the lord, the lord's temper will inevitably explode, so it's normal to hurt the concubine." Ning Xueyan picked up a celadon vase at hand without looking at it, He slammed it hard on the ground.
Amid the clear and loud sound, the expressions of the two guards and the eunuch turned into astonishment.
"You guessed that this king must be like this!" Ao Chenyi looked at the wound on the back of his hand that was still bleeding, and his long and narrow eyes were as pale as glass.
"It doesn't matter whether the prince will do this, as long as others think that the prince will do it!" Ning Xueyan pointedly said, and then smashed another white jade bottle of Yujing beside her, and smashed it on the ground without moving .
So, what she meant was that Ao Chenyi wanted others to see this scene, so she would definitely tolerate her behavior.
She knew it was dangerous to do so, and even made up the mind for Ao Chenyi when he hadn't made up his mind, but it was more dangerous not to do this, it was self-help, and she didn't want to be a target in the open, otherwise she would really die I don't know, but this is her only chance!
Everyone knows that King Yi is bloodthirsty, tyrannical, and moody. Even if he is the concubine who has won his heart, if she is arrogant and hurts him, nothing good will happen...
The sound of porcelain smashing came out one after another in the house, and even the servants passing by outside the courtyard door could hear it clearly. They all shrank their necks, trembling, and walked past the courtyard door lightly, even looking back. Don't dare to take another look.
The coldness on Ao Chenyi's face suddenly showed a meaningful expression, and the corners of his thin lips curled up: "Little girl, you are really brave, remember, there will be no next time."
I didn't expect that the "plaything" I came across by chance would be so courageous and knowledgeable. It's getting more and more interesting, and I look forward to her growth more and more!
For the matter of the emperor sending some beauties to King Yi, King Yi favored his concubine so proudly that she cried and made noise in the yard, and even bit King Yi's hand, which angered King Yi. King Yi hurriedly left the place called Zhizhi. Lanju's yard was sealed off, and people inside were not allowed to come out. They only delivered one meal a day, and they seemed really angry.
"You actually locked up that concubine?" The third prince was standing in the study, looking at a peony painting he had drawn. When the guards reported back, he frowned, sat down on the chair, and asked.
"Yes, Your Highness. I heard that King Yi had obvious bite marks on his hands. As soon as King Yi came out of the yard, he called people to apply medicine, and then asked people to come over and lock the door." The guard replied respectfully. The prince's confidant knows that the third prince, Ao Mingyu, is concerned about this matter now.
"Bitten Uncle Wang's hand? What a bold woman, she didn't expect to die like this, it seems that Uncle Wang really took his heart." Ao Mingyu's usually gentle face showed a hint of gloom, and he frowned slightly, and said with a sneer , "Continue to pay attention to the matter of Zhilanju, but you must not take any action, lest Uncle Wang notice."
The third prince became more and more curious about that woman. The last time he saw her, although he didn't see her face, but in terms of her body, she should be a beauty no matter what. The two leading ones are still in Prince Yi's mansion, but that woman didn't say anything at that time, she seemed very decent.
But now for some reason, she was so angry that she even bit Uncle Wang's hand, what is the meaning of this!
"When you go down, send the jade ointment given by the palace to Uncle Wang's mansion."
It is extremely difficult to put a nail in Yi Wang's mansion, he did not dare to order more things, so he simply asked someone to see if the injury on Uncle Wang's hand was real!
"Yes!" The guard retreated in response, and suddenly turned back halfway on the road, and bowed again and said: "Your Highness, it is said that the Marquis of Huguo's Mansion is going to be married to the Marquis of Ping'an Mansion, and it was said that it was the fifth girl of the Marquis Mansion , Later, for some unknown reason, it was replaced by the fourth girl of the Hou Mansion."
The five girls of the Hou Mansion? A flash of surprise flashed in the eyes of the third prince, as if he saw a beautiful face with indifferent eyes. Is Ning Zuan crazy or stupid to marry such a golden and precious daughter? The notorious Marquis of Ping'an didn't know what he was planning.
With her forehead covered for the first time, she looks dull and sluggish; Hanshan Temple looks smart but indifferent; which one is the real her!
For the first time, he was curious about a woman, and he wanted to see what face she would show next.
"Did the post about the plum feast in the palace be sent to the Marquis of Huguo's Mansion?" The third prince Jun had a faint smile on his face, and tapped his fingers on the table.
"The imperial concubine sent it to her earlier. I heard that this time the imperial concubine sent three postings to her specially." Although the guard didn't understand what the third prince meant, he still reported it truthfully.
Three posts, the eldest girl of the Hou Mansion is married, so these three posts are for the second girl, the third girl, and the fifth girl. Of course, the banquets in the palace will invite the prostitutes, and the mother and concubine are really considerate. , but will she really come
A sweet and charming face flashed in his mind, gentle and loving. When he was saddest, she would be by his side as gentle as water, which made him always recall it.
After so many years, she should be okay!
When Ning Xueyan left from a secluded side door of Yiwang Mansion, she saw Xinmei who was waiting in the car outside, she breathed a sigh of relief, and sat quietly in front of the window. The screams of the two beauties before they died, although on the surface it seemed that King Yi used his status as a favorite concubine to kill the two beauties who obviously had bad intentions.
Of course Ning Xueyan would not think that King Yi would not kill those two beauties without her.
There were a lot of beauties sent in the palace before, and an unknown number died in his hands. King Yi didn't take care of it, and so he wanted to come forward by himself, just because he needed such a concubine in Prince Yi's mansion.
Just now, she also made the right bet, that's why she was able to leave Prince Yi's mansion intact!
"Girl, the master didn't do it for you, did he?" Xinmei asked in a low voice with concern. Ever since she followed the fifth girl, even she had to be subdued by the wisdom of this immature girl. Of course she didn't want to Seeing that she was folded in the hands of her former master, she was sweating ever since Ning Xueyan entered.
Seeing that Xinmei showed no fake concern at all, Ning Xueyan showed a faint smile on her face and shook her head: "It's nothing, the prince still needs me as a concubine now."
Ao Chenyi set himself up as a shield, or a target, of course not simply to deal with the beauty in the backyard of the palace. That person has been in a high position for a long time, controls people's hearts, and is good at playing tricks. When answering, there was a slight hesitation, and it was impossible to say that those two beauties were his fate.
"Girl, when we get to the courtyard, shall we go back to the residence or go to Huacai Pavilion?" Seeing her natural expression, Xinmei asked with a sigh of relief.
Huacai Pavilion is one of the largest jewelry stores in Beijing. It is located on the most prosperous ground in the capital. Several stores on that road are all occupied by it. The beauties and ladies of the capital who come and go on weekdays all like to come here Come here to order or buy accessories, because the designs here are exquisite and varied, but the prices are also expensive. Many daughters of aristocratic families are proud to own the accessories of Huacai Pavilion.
This is also Ning Lingyun's favorite place to come.
Ning Lingyun is a concubine herself, of course it is impossible to have the money to buy accessories here, but even if you can't buy them, it's good to have a look, so Ning Lingyun will come to Huacai Pavilion every once in a while to have a look, to have a look The new varieties and styles here, when seeing other girls wearing them, they will also appear to have common sense and face.
And early this morning, Ning Xueyan knew that Ning Lingyun had gone out again, and the destination was naturally the Huacai Pavilion. There were repeated accidents in the Huguohou Mansion, and the access control was loosened a while ago, and Aunt Xu became the guardian. Ning Lingyun's home is much more convenient than before. It is very convenient to go out.
"After returning to the Marquis Mansion, go to the Huacai Pavilion." Ning Xue smoked her lips and raised a smile that was not a smile, and ordered lightly.
Originally, she planned to follow Ning Lingyun, but this time, how could she not follow her!
The Marquis of Ping'an Marquis, Ling promised Aunt Xu to fall on her, but now it falls on Ning Lingyun, whether it is Ning Lingyun or Aunt Xu, they will never be reconciled, Ning Lingyun is very face-saving, so it is true Coincidentally...
"Okay, servant girl will make arrangements now." Xinmei nodded, knowing that Ning Xueyan had an idea, she poked her head out to talk to the coachman.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the previous courtyard. Xinmei helped Ning Xueyan out of the carriage, went to the main courtyard to change clothes, and then got into another carriage waiting at the back door through the back door. The carriage traveled smoothly and came to On the side wall of Hou Mansion, Xinmei turned over and entered the wall with Ning Xueyan.
After changing clothes in Mingshuang Garden and taking a short rest, I asked Aunt Xu from the sub-branch to call, and took Xinmei and Qingyu into the carriage of the Marquis of Huguo's Mansion, and went up the street.
On the other hand, Lan Ning also left the residence of Marquis Huguo under the pretext of seeing her sick aunt.
After traveling on the road for a while, the carriage arrived at Huacai Pavilion.
Qingyu handed Ning Xueyan a veiled hat, and Xinmei helped Ning Xueyan get out of the car. Before they could stand still, she heard a mocking voice from the front: "Hey, this is not Fifth Sister, right? Why is it so rare to come to such a luxurious place?"
