"Liu Shu? Oh, you're talking about the unfortunate prince-in-law who was locked up in a dark room by His Majesty, Liu Shu, the former Minister of War? What does he have to do with me?"
"Hmph! Why do you talk like this! It's because of you that Liu Shu was put in prison by His Majesty! Besides, he is my sister's fifth brother-in-law! How can you be so gloating about misfortune!"
"Sister, what you said is wrong! It is true that Liu Shu is your cheap brother-in-law, but he is locked up in a dark room, but he has nothing to do with us at all!"
"It doesn't matter. Wasn't it because he slandered you in front of Your Majesty that he was arrested and imprisoned by Your Majesty?"
"Sister, what you said is wrong! I was just a newcomer who had just entered the officialdom, and I had never made any contribution to the country at that time! And Liu Shu was your Majesty's brother-in-law, and he was also a powerful minister like the Minister of War.
What's more, the Liu family in Hedong has many important officials. How could your majesty offend such a wealthy family because of a little person like me?"
"Humph! Even if you are right, what does it mean that Liu Shu was imprisoned?"
"What else can happen? It's just his own bad luck!"
"Hmph! Speak carefully!"
With a moan, Princess Leping's slender hands climbed up to Yuwen Xiaoma'er's waist, pinching, lifting, twisting, twisting, a series of movements, like flowing clouds and flowing water!
"Ouch! It hurts! Sister, have mercy on me!" Yuwen Xiaomagan'er quickly raised his hands in surrender and begged for mercy silently.
"Speak quickly!" Princess Leping said angrily with a fierce expression.
"Actually, I have heard people say this. I think you, sister, should know better than me whether it is accurate or not!"
"uh-huh?"
"I heard that my sister's sister, Princess Lanling, was very popular with His Majesty today! I also heard that His Majesty, who was still the King of Jin, had the idea to marry Princess Lanling to him.
It belongs to my wife’s brother Xiao Jue.”
"It's just that later, because His Majesty Emperor Wen liked Liu Shu more, he decided to marry Princess Lanling to Liu Shu's unlucky child!"
"Well, that's what happened! But what does this have to do with Liu Shu being imprisoned?"
"The relationship is huge! Think about it, since His Majesty had this idea at the beginning, it is very likely that he has told Queen Xiao and Queen Xiao's brother Xiao Jue! Who would have imagined that Liu Shu would appear in the background?
, it ruined His Majesty’s face and made it difficult for Him to hold his head high in front of his wife and brother-in-law! This is not just a grudge!”
"But Liu Shu is not very talented, but he is arrogant! I have heard people say that even the old man Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, dared to scold him in person!"
"As for your Majesty's brother-in-law, Xiao Jue, I heard he is an honest boy, with good talent and good looks. With Queen Xiao's connections, it will not be difficult for him to become a general or prime minister in the future!"
"After such a comparison, your majesty must feel that Liu Shu's pretty face is nothing! So he hates him even more! It is even possible that your majesty also thinks that Liu Shu's pretty face has ruined Princess Lanling's life. So, your majesty, please
It is possible to seize this opportunity to deal with the pretty boy Liu Shu and let Her Royal Highness Princess Lanling remarry!"
"What you say seems to make sense, but do you have any real evidence for what you say?" Princess Leping nodded, still asking in disbelief.
"No need, eldest sister! I have real evidence!" Before Yuwen Xiaomagan'er could speak, an elegant voice sounded. Immediately, the curtain behind Princess Leping rolled up, and a beauty in palace clothes walked out.
"Huh?" Hearing this, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er looked up and turned around, looking at the beauty, with a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
This beauty in palace attire is probably in her early twenties. She is dressed in a phoenix crown and harem, and is full of jewels. She has the demeanor of a palace lady...
Judging from the appearance, this person is somewhat similar to Princess Leping, but she does not look younger than Princess Leping. Standing together, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that these two are sisters.
"I have met Her Royal Highness Princess Lanling!" His thoughts suddenly changed, and Yuwen Xiaomagan'er quickly intervened and saluted.
"General Yuwen, there is no need to be polite, please get up quickly!" With a bow, the beauty in palace clothes looked at Yuwen Chenglong up and down for a long time, and her eyes wandered back and forth between Yuwen Chenglong and Princess Leping dozens of times before she spoke again.
He said, "You are indeed an exquisite and wonderful person. No wonder my eldest sister loves you so much!"
Princess Leping's face turned red when she heard this. Apparently Princess Leping had realized that just now, her sister was hiding behind the curtain and listening to her conversation with Yuwen Chenglong. She should have heard something!
However, the blush only lasted for a moment. Princess Leping soon regained her composure. She pulled Yuwen Chenglong's little paws somewhat narrowly, pulled him in front of the beauty in palace clothes and said, "You guessed it right, this
She is my elder sister’s fifth sister, Princess Lanling. However, you can’t call her Her Royal Highness. They are all one family. You should still call her fifth sister like your elder sister!”
As she spoke, Princess Leping stretched out her other slender hand, took the jade hand of Princess Lanling, and then put it together with Yuwen Chenglong's little paw and said, "Isn't that right, Ah Wu?"
Yang Jian had five sons and five daughters, all born to Dugu Jialuo.
Princess Lanling is the youngest among Yang Jian's five daughters. Awu is Princess Lanling's nickname.
Putting her slender hand on Yuwen Chenglong's little paw, Princess Lanling was shocked like an electric shock. She quickly struggled to retract her jade hand, glared at her eldest sister Princess Leping angrily, and then glanced at the girl opposite who was having a full face.
Innocent little Ma Gan'er, Princess Lanling didn't even notice that her face turned red.
With Xianbei bloodline from her mother, Dugu Jialuo, Princess Lanling is not very strict in ethics. At least, she does not have the concept that it is a breach of moral integrity to touch her clothes and roll down her sleeves.
But after all, she had received an orthodox Chinese education since she was a child, and Princess Lanling was very reluctant to let a strange man touch her delicate hands, even if this man was her cheap brother-in-law, that would not work!
However, this time she teased her eldest sister and her cheap brother-in-law first, and was retaliated by her eldest sister. Although she was angry, Princess Lanling was helpless and could only comfort herself in her heart, "Just a little kid, no hair."
Chang Qi! I treat it as if I was touched by my own son!"
As the youngest sister of Princess Leping, Princess Lanling is already in her early thirties this year, but due to good maintenance, she still looks like she is in her early twenties.
In this day and age, at Princess Lanling's age, many women have already given birth to grandchildren!
For example, Mrs. Yuwen, the grandmother of Yuwen Chenglong and Xiao Magan'er, had Yuwen Chenglong as her eldest grandson when she was just thirty years old.
The situation of Princess Lanling is slightly different.
In the early years, Princess Lanling was not married to Liu Shu, but to a guy named Wang Fengxiao. Unfortunately, the unlucky guy died early, causing Princess Lanling to become a widow before she was eighteen years old. Later, Princess Lanling just married
Under the arrangement of Yang Jian, she remarried Liu Shu!
And if Princess Leping hadn't been against it, she would have been arranged to remarry by Yang Jian!
Married twice, Princess Lanling has no sons, only a few daughters. The eldest among them is older than Yuwen Chenglong. She is already married and has children.
Therefore, Princess Lanling's self-comfort is not completely unreasonable.
Quickly calming herself down, Princess Lanling decided not to dwell too much on this matter, but to get to the point as soon as possible.
Gritting her teeth and being cruel, Princess Lanling bowed to Yuwen Chenglong Yingying and said, "I know this is presumptuous, but please General Yuwen, for the sake of my sister, save my husband-in-law. Ah Wu is willing to marry me."
Wear a ring of grass to repay the general's great kindness!"
