Ling Youyao was sleepy when she arrived and didn't appreciate the scenery along the way. On the way back, she opened the carriage curtain and tirelessly looked at the green mountains in the distance.

Yinzhu glanced at her several times, wanting to say something, but didn't.

Ling Youyao naturally knew what she was worried about.

Ling Qingwei was killed on the way back to Beijing. This incident had a great impact on the Song family. Ling Yuwei issued an order that no one should mention this matter again.

Although Ling Youyao was the person involved, she could not remember exactly what happened. She could only vaguely remember the sea of ​​azaleas she had dreamed about.

But looking along the way, let alone azaleas, there weren't even any flowers.

Ling Youyao suddenly looked back at Yinzhu: "Yinzhu, do you know if there are azaleas around here?"

"Azalea?" Yin Zhu thought for a while, "I remember that there is a patch of azalea on the mountain behind Foguang Temple, but it should have withered by this time of year."

"In Foguang Temple?" Ling Youyao was slightly stunned.

Lu Bao answered: "Well, the sea of ​​azaleas at Foguang Temple is famous in the capital. Every year when the flowers bloom, many ladies and ladies like to go there to enjoy the flowers."

Ling Youyao looked in the direction of Foguang Temple and fell into deep thought.

Will the sea of ​​azaleas in her dream be in Foguang Temple?

When the carriage arrived at the city gate, it was close to You hour.

Just as they were about to enter the city, the city guards stopped them: "The city is under martial law, and all people entering the city must be inspected."

Xia Cheng frowned and asked, "Why is martial law suddenly imposed?" He was fine when he left the city in the morning.

The soldiers guarding the city took a look at him and saw that he was wearing the Xuan Yu Ling around his waist and that the carriage behind him was also gorgeous and exquisite, so he considered it a little more.

"If the criminal escapes, we are ordered to check all the people entering and leaving the capital."

Hearing this, Xia Cheng pointed to the carriage: "The person sitting inside is Princess Jing, so there is no need to check it, right?"

"this"

The man hesitated. He had heard of King Jing's name, but he was also acting under orders. If something unexpected happened, he, a small city guard, could not bear the responsibility.

Xia Cheng added: "The princess just came back from Foguang Temple and she didn't meet anyone else along the way. Even if the prisoner wanted to hide, he wouldn't hide in the palace's carriage."

At this time, a discordant voice suddenly broke in: "It's impossible to tell!"

Xia Cheng looked up and saw a tall man in armor walking towards him, with a long sword hanging from his waist and a hint of arrogance in his eyes.

The person who came was none other than Zhou Su, the military commander of the five cities.

In fact, the Zhou family did not have much power in Beijing, but they had an older sister who was quite favored by His Majesty in the palace - Concubine Zhou Shu. It was precisely because of such an older sister that Zhou Su was able to take the position of commander of the troops and horses of the five cities.

Then, why did Zhou Su form a relationship with Fu Mingjue?

——Because Zhou Su's sister likes Fu Mingjue, but Fu Mingjue doesn't like her.

Zhou Peng originally wanted to rely on his sister's relationship to ask His Majesty to marry her to King Jing. Before His Majesty could agree, Fu Mingjue directly had Zhou Peng thrown into the moat and said: "If you are not clear-headed, just

Go and wash your brain."

A young girl who had just grown hair could not bear such humiliation. She fainted on the spot, and the wedding was delayed for this reason.

Therefore, Zhou Su completely hated Fu Mingjue.

Now that he has been given such a good opportunity, he must vent his anger on his sister's behalf.

When Xia Cheng heard this, his face turned cold: "I advise you to keep your mouth clean!"

Zhou Su sneered: "What did I say? If Princess Jing is innocent, why didn't she dare to get out of the car and let my people check her?"

"Just now, the wife of Lord Taichang Temple entered the city after being inspected. Does it mean that just because she is Princess Jing, she can ignore His Majesty's will?"

"Zhou Su, you!" Xia Cheng glared at him angrily.

If such a big hat comes to His Majesty's ears, he will inevitably be suspicious of the prince again.

Zhou Su moved his gaze to the carriage with a fierce look on his face: "Even if King Jing has your Majesty's trust, he can't despise the imperial edict, right? Those who don't know would think that the person sitting in the palace is him, Fu Mingjue!"

"Master Zhou." A clear voice sounded.

Ling Youyao slowly stepped out of the carriage with Yin Zhu's support.

Zhou Su narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at that petite figure, with gathered eyebrows, fragrant cheeks, and a pair of bright eyes with a hint of coldness, staring straight at him, which actually made Zhou Su feel a little flustered.

Princess Jing rarely appears in public, and what people talk about the most is the similarity in appearance between Princess Jing and her sister Ling Qingwei.

Now that he saw her, Zhou Su felt that his sister was indeed inferior to Princess Jing.

Ling Youyao said calmly: "Master Zhou, as an official of the imperial court, should follow His Majesty's will."

Hearing this, Zhou Su's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "The princess is still sensible."

"But -" Ling Youyao's voice changed, "Master Zhou, please don't forget that you are just a small commander. The prince is His Majesty's brother, so how can you be allowed to say anything?"

"You" Zhou Su wanted to say something, but was interrupted.

"As a minister, you should fulfill your duties as a minister. It is considered disrespectful for you to address the prince by his first name, and it is considered inappropriate to provoke a relationship between your majesty and the prince."

"Master Zhou, what are your intentions?" Ling Youyao asked coldly.

When the royal guards accompanying the palace saw this scene, their blood boiled with excitement and they wanted to shout "Mighty Princess" three times.

Zhou Su was shocked speechless by Ling Youyao. She was just a little girl who had just grown hair, but she actually made him feel panicked.

Ling Youyao didn't give him any chance to breathe: "Mr. Zhou, you have to weigh the importance of what you say next time. It would be bad if it affects your family."

This is a naked threat.

But Zhou Su couldn't refute a word.

He was indeed impulsive just now. He originally thought that Ling Youyao was just a little girl and would not dare to fight against him, but he did not expect that she was so powerful.

Ling Youyao had been in a bad mood for the past two days. She was angry with Fu Mingjue, and she also ran into Su Lingxi. Who would have thought that Zhou Su would be caught in the crossfire.

What is this if not a punching bag?

Xia Cheng had never seen Ling Youyao's eloquence before, so he was stunned for a long time.

"What are you doing here?"

A group of people came out of the city gate, led by Fu Mingjue.

"Your Majesty!" Xia Cheng rushed over in surprise.

When Ling Youyao saw Fu Mingjue, her face felt a little unnatural. She didn't know how much he heard. If he heard everything, wouldn't her image be ruined?

Fu Mingjue was riding a green-maned horse, and his black clothes made him look cold and formidable. He looked at Ling Youyao, and the coldness in his eyes dissipated a little.

Ling Youyao put on a smiling face, walked to Fu Mingjue, raised her head and asked, "My lord, are you here to pick me up?"

When the people around heard this, they immediately pricked up their ears: Didn't it say that King Jing would marry Miss Ling Er all because of Ling Qingwei?

Now after listening to these words, why do you feel that King Jing seems to be very concerned about Ling Youyao?

Fu Mingjue raised his eyebrows slightly and admitted generously: "Yes."
