He came to the beauty and asked coldly, "Why did she do this?"
The beauty met his gaze without fear, "Master, I just want to ask whether Master Jiu agrees or not?"
"What a leader," King Xia suddenly sneered and asked, "Did she tell you why I wanted to help her?"
"Master Jiu is wise, and the master did say so."
King Xia was startled, then he smiled and twisted the letter, "What benefit can I get from helping her? If what your master tells you can convince me, I will help."
"The master said that one cannot know each other without fighting. Jiu Ye is her only friend in Dongling."
"She said that she didn't know how long it would take her to repay Jiu Ye, how she would repay, and whether she had the ability to repay. But as long as she was alive and within her ability, if Jiu Ye needed her in any way, she would do her best to serve you."
After finishing the careful instructions given by Qiaochu, King Xia did not respond. The beauty smiled bitterly, thinking that this time the task assigned by her master could not be completed after all.
When I raised my head slightly, I saw King Xia had walked to the table and was writing something.
Just as she was wondering, King Xia had put down his pen, picked up a seal from the table, pressed it heavily on the paper, and folded the paper to seal it. After he finished all this, he clapped his hands lightly, and Manager Xia immediately pushed the door open and walked in.
Prince Xia handed the envelope to General Manager Xia and said in a deep voice, "It will be five o'clock in the morning soon. You will accompany me to the palace for the morning court today. When I go to court, you will try to hand this letter to my mother, Concubine Zhuang, and tell her to do what is entrusted in the letter for me."
The beauty clasped her hands and said, "Yes, it will soon be five o'clock, master."
The snow stopped, the day broke, and we returned to the Prince’s Mansion.
The doorman who was changing shifts was just walking to the door when he was suddenly blown by a fragrant breeze. The old man was startled, but saw the Crown Princess leading a group of servants and maids walking quickly towards him.
The prince has many villas. Princess Qiaorong, who went to one of them to relax after participating in the concubine selection competition, came back after dinner last night and is now following behind the crown princess.
With a cold look in his eyes, he pushed the door open suddenly.
Outside the door, a carriage was about to leave. The driver was the coachman from the Prince's Mansion, and sitting in the passenger seat was the Prince's study companion Fang Jing.
When Fang Jing saw Jiaomei, he hurriedly got out of the car to greet her.
He glanced at the carriage and said with a smile, "Oh, hasn't His Highness gone to court? Fang Jing, who is in this carriage?"
Fang Jing hesitated for a moment, and then a voice came from the car, "Second sister, it's me, Qiaochu."

Qiaomei sneered in her heart, of course she knew it was her!
The night before, she had wanted to intercept the prince to prevent the two from meeting each other, but the prince left the mansion without a word. When she returned to her room to think for a while and wanted to go find her good third sister, Qiaochu was no longer in the mansion. Later, the assassination incident happened by Liuzi Lake -
She had a strong feeling that the secret in the building six or seven years ago might have been exposed!
After the prince returned home from the Golden Palace yesterday, he treated her as usual and showed great favor to her.
Prince, of course she couldn't ask.
In the evening, after Qiaochu came back, she wanted to go to the hospital, but she felt extremely tired and later fell asleep in the bedroom.
This feeling was strange and she was suspicious.
When I woke up this morning, I immediately went to Qiaochu's room, but found it empty. Later, the head maid came rushing to report that a servant saw Fang Jing leading Qiaochu and his servants out.
At this time, she said calmly: "It's so early in the morning and it's freezing cold. Why don't you take a rest for a while, Third Sister?"
Through the carriage tent, I could only hear Qiaochu whispering, "Qiaochu has something to do and needs to go to the palace."
Entering the palace, he must be eager to wait for the prince to come back from court, so as to get as much experience as possible with him! Fang Jing, the prince's personal bodyguard, actually took charge of the transportation—
Without the emperor's order, all officials could only enter the palace during the morning court session. Unless they were the crown prince or the prince's first wife, concubines, or ordinary imperial wives and attendants, they could not enter the palace at will unless they were accompanied by the crown prince, the prince, or his first wife. Otherwise, if they wanted to enter the palace, they had to have the crown prince's token! The crown prince actually gave her the crown prince's token
She clenched her palms and smiled gently, but did not expose him. She said, "Sister just wants to go to the palace to find His Highness. Let's go together."
There was silence in the carriage for a long time before another voice came out, "Okay, sister."
Qiaorong was filled with joy. She pulled Qiaomei's arm and said, "Sister, I want to go to the palace to have a look too. Everyone says that the palace is magnificent. I want to go and have a look too. Please take me with you."
He raised his eyebrows and curved his lips, saying, "Well, I'll take you there."
She glanced at Fang Jing and smiled faintly, "Ah Jing, please prepare a carriage for me. Third sister can take the servants with her, because the carriage is a little small."
Fang Jing's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything, just responded humbly.
The carriage passed through the imperial city, with her eyebrows raised and her hands twisting the curtain, she stared at the palace wall getting closer and closer, her eyes getting colder. What belongs to her, no one can take it away! But she didn't expect that this time, she would be forced into a completely unimaginable situation.

Text 072 She outside the throne room (3)
In the Golden Palace, the morning court session is over.
All the princes and officials in the court were still in shock. Finally, they all congratulated the virtuous king, the wise king and the prime minister. General Lang was still stationed at the border. The emperor had just issued an imperial decree to have him return.
What's the matter
—Attending the wedding of the eighth prince, Prince Rui, and his daughter, Lang Linling. This was because the emperor had just granted a marriage between Prince Rui and Miss Lang in public.
Wang Mang glanced at the prince.
This imperial edict should have been issued early yesterday morning, but the incident at Liuzi Lake happened and Prince Rui fainted. When he was carried into the rear court, the emperor told the crown prince to tell Cao Zhaonan not to issue the marriage edict for the time being.
When the prince came out, the three of them analyzed the situation. Although he said at that time, "I don't know what would happen if the virtuous prince knew the true imperial edict that the emperor granted marriage to his cousin", he actually knew in his heart at that time that the virtuous prince might never know what the true imperial edict said.
Emperor Bei ordered that the marriage decree should not be issued for the time being, and it is very likely that he has cancelled the marriage - this is because considering that Prince Rui had sent spies to the Prince's Mansion, she no longer trusts Prince Rui. Not to mention the military order, she is afraid that she will not even help him arrange a marriage with the Lang family and use the Lang family's power to help the Prince ascend the throne in the future.
At this time, it seemed that something went wrong. The emperor did not change his mind! It seemed that he was just concerned about the injury of King Rui and wanted King Rui to have a good rest for a day. Today, King Rui was able to attend the court with his injury, so he announced it in the court.
Moreover, according to the new decree, the next morning, the two concubines of the Yuan side, Lang Linling and Qiaochu, will be married to the Prince Rui at the same time. The time is exactly the same as the time on the original decree for Qiaochu's marriage.
The wise king judged the prince's expression, but found nothing unusual, so he lowered his voice and asked the prince a question.
The prince said nothing, but there was still a faint smile on his lips.
Since the Xixia rebelled in Xianyang, Shangguan Jinghong proposed to go to war and entered the palace that night to get the general's order. The emperor's attitude towards him has changed dramatically. It's not just because the fool has become wise, there must be something else behind it.
And this inside story should be related to the sudden death of Concubine Chang that year.
There are some palace secrets that other people don't know, but he knows them clearly. For example, why Concubine Chang was favored during her lifetime; why Concubine Chang died suddenly; why the emperor no longer liked Shangguan Jinghong after Concubine Chang died.
Is it true that Shangguan Jinghong lost his childhood intelligence and wisdom only in the eyes of the world? In fact, before Chang Fei died, she had already fallen out of favor because of one thing! Even the emperor began to hate her son Shangguan Jinghong. That thing was the biggest and most horrifying secret that was buried in the youth and in this palace.
On the night when the general's order was captured, Shangguan Jinghong must have said something to the emperor about Concubine Chang when he entered the palace, which actually aroused the emperor's feelings for Concubine Chang.
Therefore, although the emperor took the matter of spies into consideration, he still retained the decree to grant the marriage. He had already anticipated the outcome of today.
Therefore, he will arrange a top person next to Shangguan Jinghong.
Although his biological mother died earlier than Concubine Chang and never entered the palace in her life, she was the woman in the emperor's heart. Therefore, he was the emperor's most beloved son. Even if he did not change his mind about the marriage with Shangguan Jinghong, what about the military token
On the other side, Wang Mang saw Wang Taifu glance at him and immediately understood. He was about to call the crown prince to come over to congratulate him, but he saw that the crown prince had already walked to the side of King Rui. He was startled and hurried over with Wang Taifu.
The changes in the courtiers’ expressions are truly fascinating!
Yesterday, although the emperor said that "Prince Rui should be credited with a merit", everyone still did not think highly of him because they had argued with the emperor about his outstanding achievements. At this moment, they all changed their expressions to humble ones. At the same time, they all looked at the crown prince and the virtuous prince with doubts, as if they were all wondering if the emperor intended to promote the virtuous prince as one of the candidates for the crown prince by granting him marriage.

Wang Mang sneered. No one understood the emperor's true intention. The emperor hoped that Prince Rui would use the power of the Lang family to allow the prince to ascend the throne smoothly, and then restrain the prince.
This idea was the prince's previous guess, but in fact, on the eve of the selection of concubines, the emperor summoned the prince to the palace and briefly mentioned this matter in his words, and opened his heart to the prince, letting him understand his father's expectations.
This is enough to prove that the prince's guess was foresighted and correct!
On the other hand, the wise king did not show any joy at this time, but a look of surprise and doubt.
Wang Mang smiled softly. The wise king never expected such a result of the marriage, but instead did a stupid thing of assassination!
The Dali Temple was closely investigating the assassination case. According to what Taifu Wang, who was assisting in the investigation, told him and the crown prince, Dali Temple Minister Zong Pu was a man of his own skill and had successfully stopped the two assassins from committing suicide. Moreover, although he was ruthless and impartial, he would never show mercy when it came to torture. Under the severe torture, one of the assassins loosened his lips a little.
The virtuous prince is now like an ant in the hot nest. It is said that he has been going to the palace frequently to visit Queen Lang in the past two days. Others do not know and think that he is a loving mother and a filial son, but in fact he is discussing countermeasures.
Lang Xiang is an upright person who thinks carefully. I am afraid that he has not yet dared to tell this grandfather that the virtuous king sent someone to assassinate the prince. Moreover, during the interrogation, Zong Pu was rigorous and Wang Taifu was also monitoring from the side. Even if Lang Xiang knew about it, he might not be able to intervene and help!
At this time, upon hearing that the marriage was granted, Chancellor Cha Lang looked relieved and happy, but he said, "I'm afraid my grandson is not worthy of King Rui."
Wang Mang knew that he must still be bothered by the fact that Prince Rui had chosen Qiaochu as his concubine.
But King Rui bowed to Prime Minister Lang and whispered, "Prince Lang, Jinghong loves Princess Qiaochu, but now that my father has given the order, Miss Lang is kind and virtuous, Jinghong will not treat her badly and will show her respect and love."
Lang Xiang was startled, as if he had not expected that Prince Rui would be so frank and actually said that he liked Qiao Chu. On the day of the selection contest, he did not go because of a slight illness. He was a veteran minister of two dynasties and had a very high status. Even the emperor treated him with great respect. No one dared to say anything if he did not go. However, he had also heard about what happened that day and knew that Prince Rui liked Qiao Chu. Seeing Prince Rui like this, he felt that he was open and honest, and he liked him a little.
Wang Mang guessed what Lang Xiang was thinking and couldn't help feeling a little frightened. He glanced secretly at Prince Rui again.

At this time, the emperor on the high throne smiled and said, "For the wedding of Prince Rui, the Ministry of Internal Affairs needs to prepare many matters. Zhaonan, Cunfeng, you two are the general managers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you must keep a close eye on it and make sure there are no mistakes."
Cao Zhaonan and Mo Cunfeng quickly agreed.
Wang Mang saw that the emperor seemed happy that Prince Rui had stopped arguing and understood the general situation, and his heart sank a little. But he heard the emperor say in a deep voice: "Zongqing must also hurry up on the assassination case!"
Zong Puzheng
