Princess Ji was the granddaughter of Chaozhang, the Marquis of Jingyuan at that time, and her name was Chaomanzhi, which was taken from the green leaves that make Yinzi Manzhi. When Emperor Wanlong was fighting for the throne, Marquis Jingyuan put in a lot of effort and gained the trust of Emperor Wanlong.
One of the few elders of the three dynasties above the Da Gan court.
Chaozhang is now over eighty years old, and has long since ceased to be involved in government affairs. He has no real power and is regarded as a free and easy prince. However, Chaozhang is senior, highly respected, and has considerable influence in the court. He should not be taken lightly, otherwise
, Li Xuanying would not marry Chao Manzhi.
Chao Manzhi nodded gently and said harmoniously: "I will take you to see her."
"Empress, this..." Wang Zhong's expression changed, and when he wanted to say more, Chao Manzhi shouted impatiently: "Don't you know what the situation is now? Is it about face or life?"
Wang Zhong and the others were as silent as cicadas, hanging their heads in silence. Chao Manzhi's chest rose and fell, and he was obviously depressed. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly: "Your Highness, come this way."
Li Luo pondered for a moment and nodded. Chao Manzhi said something right. Today's land depends on whether Prince Ji's Mansion will cost him his life or his face.
Li Luo ordered Chi Li and others to stay in the hall and follow Princess Ji alone to the place where Yan Shuang'er was imprisoned.
Chao Manzhi walked in front. He didn't say a word after leaving the lobby. He lowered his head and hurried on. Chao Manzhi also pushed the maids beside him to one side and did not let them follow. Probably because he didn't want Yan Shuang'er's appearance to disturb too much.
people saw it.
This road leads to the backyard of Prince Ji's Mansion, which should be a secluded place in the northwest corner. The further you go, the more palace guards there are on the road. However, when they saw Princess Ji leading the way, they all bowed and did not dare to stop her.
As they walked, Chao Manzhi suddenly asked: "They said that the prince married a knight-errant girl as his princess. Is it true?"
Li Luo was stunned, touched the tip of his nose, thought for a while and replied: "She is indeed from a martial arts background, but she shouldn't be considered a chivalrous woman."
He smiled softly at Manzhi and said with a little envy: "That's great."
Li Luo glanced at Chao Manzhi's back. Chao Manzhi sighed and Li Luo could probably guess the meaning. However, Li Luo did not answer. To be honest, Li Luo did not want to have too many entanglements with Prince Ji's Mansion.
, I came here today just to eat the emperor's salary and to be loyal to the emperor.
"Do all men like good-looking women?"
Li Luo took a breath. It was obvious that there was resentment in Chao Manzhi's words. Compared with Yan Shuang'er, Chao Manzhi was indeed inferior. Her appearance was ordinary, and her figure was not as tall as Yan Shuang'er.
Well, it’s just that he has a decent family background.
In other words, what Yanshuang'er has in Chaomanzhi has it, but what Yanshuanger has does not necessarily exist in Chaomanzhi.
Li Luo didn't want to answer, but he couldn't ignore Chao Manzhi too much. After all, in Prince Ji's Mansion, Chao Manzhi was one of the few people who could see the overall situation clearly.
"Everyone has a love for beauty."
"Then why is the prince different?"
Li Luo was secretly stunned. It was indeed difficult to guess what this woman was thinking. At this time, she was taking care of everything in the house while being jealous at the same time. It was hard not to admire her.
Li Luo laughed and didn't answer, but asked: "Is it almost there?"
Chao Manzhi hummed, did not ask any more questions, sighed, and said: "Many people laughed at the prince for marrying a woman who is not worthy of the prince's status, and she is not good-looking. In fact, when I said these words, I
You can all hear the sour smell, they are jealous, some are jealous of the prince, and some are jealous of the princess."
Li Luo snorted and looked calm. If Gu Lianglei was willing to take off the veil, I don't know what kind of turmoil would happen in the whole Zhuocheng.
"I tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen, but I didn't expect him to do something like that. By the time I found out, it was already too late." Chao Manzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, even if I knew, I'm afraid,
It won’t change anything.”
Li Luo nodded secretly. Indeed, even if Chao Manzhi knew about it, he might not be able to stop Li Xuanying. Li Luo actually understood King Ji. From walking on thin ice before to being anxious and depressed now, in fact, the life of the king at these years
It was not comfortable for him to bear the title of the leader of all scholars, but it made Li Xuanying a little breathless, so he would do such a ridiculous thing. I'm afraid that Li Xuanying still doesn't believe that Yan Danfeng has
Be brave enough to rebel.
But Yan Danfeng really rebelled, and he rebelled so decisively. Li Xuanying only saw a general who suppressed the army, but did not see the world behind Shuzhou.
Chao Manzhi stopped, and Li Luo also stopped immediately. This is a quiet little courtyard, hidden in a winding path, under the pear blossoms and green pines.
Prince Ji's Mansion is much larger than Li Luo's abandoned building.
"right here?"
"This is it." Chao Manzhi looked at the black-faced guard who stopped him and Li Luo, and said coldly.
"Princess, please stay." The guard bowed and said apologetically.
"We're going in."
"The prince has told me that no one else is allowed to enter unless he comes in person. Please don't embarrass me." The guard replied respectfully, but he refused to give in.
"Get out of the way!" Chao Manzhi shouted angrily.
"Please forgive me." The guard was determined not to let Chao Manzhi go in. He should be Li Xuanying's confidant guard. While stopping Chao Manzhi, he looked at Li Luo coldly, with a sense of humor deep in his eyes.
The cold murderous aura.
Chao Manzhi rushed towards him several times but was stopped by the guards. His face turned red with anger and he was really suffering. If Li Xuanying were here, Chao Manzhi would definitely scold him for his own misfortune.
Li Luo comforted Chao Manzhi and took a look into the yard. The bamboo trees were deep and dark, and it was difficult to see what was going on inside. To find Yan Shuang'er, someone had to go inside.
"Who is your honor, and why do you come to Prince Ji's Mansion to spy?" the guard said coldly.
Chao Manzhi was so angry that he couldn't speak. This question seemed to be directed at Li Luo, but in fact, Chao Manzhi also blamed him. He led an idle person around the house for no reason. The implication was that Chao Manzhi was asking Li Luo.
What is Manzhi’s intention?
Li Luo smiled, looked at the gloomy palace guard, and asked calmly: "If the Holy Emperor comes, can't he enter?"
The guard's expression changed slightly, he calmed down again, and replied calmly: "The Holy One can certainly enter this courtyard."
"That's good." Li Luo took off the sword on his waist and said in a deep voice, "This sword is called Xingxiu. It was given by Emperor Wanlong of Dagan. Seeing the sword is like seeing the king, so let us go in."
The guard's expression suddenly changed, and he finally knew who the person in front of him was. No wonder he had to be accompanied by the princess, but he didn't know when the princess got involved with King Da Ganding.
The guard was sweating on his vest, but he held on and blocked the courtyard door, arguing: "I have never seen the Xingxiu Sword, how do I know whether this sword is real or fake?" (To be continued)
