Concubine Xian realized that there was something wrong with the situation, and stopped and did not continue to move forward: "How about you continue, this palace will go first?"

"Concubine Xian." The prince called to Concubine Xian, who turned around and was about to leave, "I remember, how many concubines are in charge of affairs in the palace?"

Concubine Xian frowned even tighter: "What happened here?" She found that the fifth prince was also there, and took a few steps back, "It has nothing to do with this palace, and this palace has nothing to do with Weiyang Palace."

The prince glanced at her and said nothing, then turned to Hua Liuli and said, "Liuli, you go back to the inner hall first, and I'll go back to the East Palace to change into a suit."

Seeing his strange expression, Hua Liuli suddenly reached out and touched the prince's chest.

Concubine Xian and the Fifth Prince hurriedly turned their heads away, not daring to look any further. Knowing that the two of you have a good relationship, is it alright to restrain yourself in front of others

"You're wearing..." Before Hua Liuli finished speaking, she heard Iris whispering nervously: "Prince, county master, you all leave immediately, there are other people in the room."

"It's alright." The crown prince gently embraced Hua Liuli's shoulders, "That's the leader of the Eastern Palace Golden Armored Guard."

Why is the leader of the Golden Armored Guard in the East Palace here

Hua Liuli glanced at the prince, her face suddenly turned pale, and she threw herself into the prince's arms: "Fortunately, Your Highness, you are all right, I know that Your Highness is not such a person. The person who framed you is really bad."

"It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid." The prince hugged Hua Liuli gently and smiled, "You can trust me so much, even if someone stabs me with a knife, I'm still happy."

Hua Liuli was lying on the shoulders of the prince, and her eyes searched everywhere. Finally, on the beam above the bronze mirror, and above the corner of the house, she found two people who were perfectly hidden.

She quickly retracted her gaze, and put her hand on the prince's back.

The royal family of Dajin has a treasure named Babao Soft Hedgehog Armor.

When the emperor is on a personal expedition, he will wear this armor close to his body and charge in front of the battle to stabilize the heart of the army.

On this occasion today, why did the prince wear this thing on his body

"Okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." The prince let go of Hua Liuli, took her hand and came to Concubine Xian, "Concubine Xian, please go back to the East Palace first, Fushou County Master was frightened just now, please help me Take care of her."

Concubine Xian looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, then looked at the gentle prince, nodded and said, "Okay." After agreeing, she looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and said a few more words, "You are still young. , if you have something to say, don't say bad words when you are angry. The girl's personality is soft and her heart is soft, don't make people sad. "

Fushou County Master is timid and weak, and she is really afraid that she will be bullied to death by the prince's dog's temper one day.

The fifth prince standing next to him: "..."

He always felt that something was wrong, but for a while, he didn't seem to be able to pick out any major problems.

In order to protect the third brother of the prince, the princess of Fushou overcame fear and cowardice, fought wits and courage with the maid who calculated the third brother of the prince, and forced out the truth from the mouth of the maid, which is really admirable.

Is this the beautiful love in the legend

The prince returned to the East Palace, put on clean clothes, walked out of the inner room and said to the leader of the Golden Armored Guard who was waiting outside: "Is there any suspicious person who intends to approach the apse?"

"His Royal Highness, the suspect did not appear." The leader of Jin Jiawei replied, "The subordinate suspects that the early appearance of the palace maid has affected their plans."

"That's really a pity, Gu is very curious about the power of the good uncle of the Xie family." The prince put his hands behind his back, and his tone was a bit terrifying, "Find out who arranged that palace maid, if it is really the father's concubine. , it will be handed over to the royal father."

"Relying on a little palace maid, I want the lonely future prince concubine to have doubts about Gu Xin?" The prince snorted coldly, "The lonely prince concubine is not those ordinary people."

The leader of Jinjiawei: "Your Highness is right."

If you didn't look so ugly when you saw Princess Fushou just now, and your whole body wasn't so stiff, this sentence might be more credible.

In Weiyang Hall, Zhao Sancai stepped forward and poured a glass of wine for Emperor Changlong: "Your Majesty, something unexpected happened."

"Prince is injured?" The wine glass in Emperor Changlong's hand was almost unsteady.

"Prince is safe and worry-free." Zhao Sancai said a few words quickly in Emperor Changlong's ear, Emperor Changlong's hand squeezed the wine glass with a bit of strength, and his face became more and more calm: "It seems that in my harem, it is not very calm either. ,"

His eyes swept across several concubines with sons, and then he saw the concubine Xian dressed in jewels, bringing the fifth prince and Hua Liuli in.

Emperor Changlong carefully observed the face of his future daughter-in-law and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Fushou County Master did not misunderstand the prince because of this matter. It is really a blessing for Dajin to have such a good daughter-in-law in the future.

When the banquet was over, the officials of the Ministry of Rites reservedly expressed to the envoys that they were welcome to visit the training ground together tomorrow.

All the envoys said to themselves: Go back tonight, and think about the content of tomorrow's flattery.

"Brother Three Emperors?" Princess Tortoiseshell noticed that her brother was distracted, and whispered, "Brother Huang, the banquet is over."

"Sorry, Huangmei, I haven't slept very well in the past two days." He Yuanting recovered himself, tidied up his clothes, and got up to thank the Emperor of Jin.

He glanced at the prince's seat on the side of Emperor Changlong, which was still empty.

After Emperor Changlong and the Empress Dowager left, the courtiers and envoys slowly left the Weiyang Hall. The envoys of the tortoiseshell country and the Jinpo country walked behind.

The envoy of Jin Poguo sneered: "If you could attack Jin with us back then, you would not be so low-key today, and you wouldn't even be able to send out your own princess."

"I'll let you down and let you snatch all the princesses?" the tortoiseshell envoy replied, "What we regret is that we didn't beat you with Jin at the beginning."

If the one who wins now is Kimper, their fate is probably even worse than now.

Ambassador Kimber: "Huh."

The tortoiseshell envoy: "Humph."

The two parties parted unhappily, and left the temple door, left and right.

The tortoiseshell princess followed He Yuanting silently. As a woman, she couldn't talk to other envoys either, which would make her seem less reserved, so even though she was very curious about some things in Jin, she didn't dare to ask.

Passing through the open space outside the spacious hall, the tortoiseshell princess saw the future crown princess of Jin State leaning against a tree, holding a lantern in her hand, her whole person was like a light falling into the darkness, with a dazzling beauty .

Their eyes met in the air, she made a bold move, took the initiative to pull the veil off her face, and smiled at the beauty under the tree.

The other party didn't seem to think that she would do this. After a little stunned, he smiled and blessed her.

"What are you looking at?" He Yuanting turned his head to see Huangmei taking off her veil, followed her gaze, and saw Hua Liuli smiling under the tree.

He Yuanting stopped and looked at her quietly.

"Brother Three Emperors, she is the future Crown Princess of Jin." Princess Tortoiseshell bit her lip nervously, almost biting her lower lip to bleed.

"Of course I know that she is the future Crown Princess of Jin." He Yuanting smiled gently, "Emperor Sister, why do you say this?"

"No, no." The tortoiseshell princess quickly shook her head and put the veil back on, which also covered the fear on her face.

"Fu Shou County Lord." He Yuanting stepped forward and gave Hua Liuli a salute, "If the County Lord has no one with him, I would like to send the County Lord a ride."

"Many thanks to the third prince for your kindness, but it's unnecessary." The prince came in the night wind, "Gu and Fushou County Master have made an appointment to travel together."

"It turns out that the county lord has made an appointment with His Royal Highness, and I thought the county lord was here alone." He Yuanting smiled humbly.

The prince nodded slightly, and in front of He Yuanting, he gently held Hua Liuli's hand: "Third prince, walk slowly. Tomorrow's martial arts performance, please also ask the third prince to be absent."

"I'm fortunate enough to see the military demeanor of the state of Jin, but I'm not willing to be absent." He Yuanting bowed, and out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the hands of the prince and Hua Liuli, and turned to leave slowly.

"His Royal Highness." The tortoise shell envoy waited for He Yuanting to return and whispered, "Although you were wronged before for using a handsome man against Fushou County Master, but now she has become the prince's fiancée, you really don't need to wrong yourself any more."

The tortoiseshell princess looked at the three emperors in surprise. Did the emperor use a handsome man against Fushou County Master? For the sake of the tortoiseshell's well-being, the three emperors are willing to use the handsome man's plan. What kind of sacrifice is this

But looking at Fushou County Master's indifferent attitude towards the Three Emperor Brothers, the handsome man's plan doesn't seem to be too successful

"You think too much, I just went up to chat a few words." He Yuanting raised his eyebrows and looked at the minister who was speaking, "Jin country has different customs of tortoiseshells from mine. It is a good thing for tortoiseshells to be able to befriend the future crown princess."

"Having said that, but I see that the prince loves her very much, and I mustn't like other men to get too close to her. If you do this, you will offend the prince." The tortoiseshell princess whispered, "Brother Sanhuang, I think, When you see her in the future, it's better to stay away."

He Yuanting glanced at Princess Tortoiseshell: "Thank you Huangmei for reminding me."

"I don't think that the third prince looks like a good person." The prince said to Hua Liuli, "Stay away from him in the future. I'm afraid he will make you ugly."

"It's alright, if I'm ugly by others, let Your Highness wash my eyes." Hua Liuli covered her mouth and yawned, "Your Highness, it's so late, where do you want me to accompany you?"

"I'm going to the Du residence to visit Master Du, would you like to accompany me?" The prince took Hua Liuli and walked in the direction of the carriage.

"His Royal Highness, is it inappropriate for me to go with you when you go to Du's Mansion at night?"

"I think it's very appropriate." The prince pulled Hua Liuli into the carriage, "Du Taishi has gone through two dynasties, although he likes to pick and choose from me and is stubborn, but he is sincere and loyal to Dajin. I don't like to care about these things with him. Now that he is seriously ill, he must be thinking about who and when His Royal Highness is engaged."

"He's so ill now, I can't let him go with regrets. Although the day of our marriage has not yet come, the fact that you are my future crown princess cannot be changed." The crown prince took Hua Liuli's hand, Wrapping it in his palm, "In order to make the old man feel at ease, please ask the future crown princess to be wronged once, and accompany me to be a guest at someone else's house late at night."

Hua Liuli said, "I heard that Taishi Du used to like to pick on you, didn't he?"

The prince sighed: "I was playful when I was young, and when I was seen twice by Taishi Du, he felt that I was lazy.

"It's the nature of a child to be playful. Your Highness, aren't you very good now?" Hua Liuli said, "His Highness has a broader mind than me, and I am a shrewd person who still holds grudges."

"Nonsense, it's clearly Liuli that is a hundred times better than me." The prince adjusted his posture and sat face to face with Hua Liuli, "The accident that happened tonight is not the assassin, but you misunderstand me and doubt me. to your heart."

A thousand words are not as touching as the word "believe".

Hua Liuli looked at the prince and smiled, but did not speak.

The carriage exited the palace through the side gate, mixed in with the traffic flowing in and out of the palace, passed through the thick night, and came to the door of Du's house.

The Du family had just returned from the palace and had just sat down before they had time to freshen up. When they heard a report from the concierge, saying that it was brought by the Crown Prince and the Princess Fushou was visiting, they jumped up from their chairs in shock: "Quick, quick please."

Before the family reached the door, the servant in the inner courtyard ran over with a look of panic: "Master, Madam, the old man is not good!"

"What?!" Master Du's mind went blank, he turned his head and stumbled to the yard where Master Du lived, regardless of the prince's presence outside.

Yao shi looked at the flustered back, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said to the two uncles who were at a loss, "Open the middle door and welcome His Royal Highness."

As soon as the prince got off the carriage, he heard a commotion in Du's house, vaguely saying "The old man is not good", he quickly stepped into the door of the Du's house, and before the Du family saluted, he asked, "How is the old lady?" already?"

"Go back to His Highness, the old man... he's not very good." A Du family member couldn't bear it any longer, covered his face with his sleeves, and began to cry.

"His Royal Highness, let's go take a look." Seeing that the prince seemed stunned, Hua Liuli reached out and pushed the prince's arm.

The prince came back to his senses, grabbed Hua Liuli, and walked directly to Du Taishi's yard.

In the room full of bitter medicinal smells, the descendants of the Du family were kneeling on their knees. Taishi Du looked at these sobbing and weeping descendants, and his mind was extraordinarily clear: "You are all back?"

"Father, the son's door is back." Master Du knelt down to the bed of Grand Master Du.

"Just come back." Du Taishi asked again, "Will those envoys be honest at the Hundred Nations Banquet?"

"Your Majesty's majesty is so mighty, how dare envoys from other countries be rude. After the banquet, His Majesty asked his son about your health, and said that you should rest well. When you are well, you will be invited to the palace for dinner."

"It's good that they can be honest." Mrs. Du smiled comfortably, but also had some regrets, "It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to see this lively scene. In the future... I'm afraid I won't be able to see it again."

"His Royal Highness is here!"
