In the bustling palace of Nuoda, Prince Zheng Chen, dressed in rich clothes, sat on the throne. He was holding a letter in his hand and looking at it carefully.
After a moment, a deep expression appeared on his face.
At the same time, Bai Fengqi was sitting under the main seat.
He calmly took a sip of tea, glanced at the deep expression on Zheng Chen's face, and couldn't help but frown.
"Your Highness, what happened?"
Hearing this, Zheng Chen threw the letter to him.
Bai Fengqi picked it up and took a closer look, and a hint of deep meaning suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen, but the emperor asked Lin Zhendong to go and solve it, and instead left Prince Jian'an aside in the cold."
He said with a puzzled expression on his face.
Hearing this, Zheng Chen sneered: "Why else? Father, he is afraid of Chen Ruzhi!"
After hearing his words, Bai Fengqi narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a while, he suddenly looked at Zheng Chen with a worried look on his face and said: "Your Highness, I am worried. Although the emperor believes in Lin Zhendong, Lin Zhendong cannot be the opponent of Donglin people in southern Xinjiang."
After his words fell, Zheng Chen stopped drinking tea.
He raised his eyes and took a deep look at Bai Fengqi: "Why don't Baihou tell me what he is thinking."
After hearing his words, Bai Fengqi nodded towards him, then put down the tea cup and slowly opened his mouth.
"Why don't you, Your Highness, start secretly, prepare candidates, and help Lin Zhendong at the critical moment? This will not only win people's hearts and merits, but also make the emperor look at you with admiration."
After hearing Bai Fengqi's words, Zheng Chen's eyes suddenly flashed.
A smile appeared on his lips, he looked at Bai Fengqi and said, "It is Baihou's thoughtfulness that gave us such useful suggestions."
"Okay, then do as Baihou said."
he said.
Immediately, he frowned again, feeling troubled.
"But who should be allowed to go?"
After his words fell, Bai Fengqi also frowned.
I quickly thought of suitable candidates.
But now that there is a shortage of generals in the court, the two of them just thought about it for a long time, but they couldn't figure out who was most suitable to go.
Zheng Chen sighed deeply, but at this moment, a figure suddenly popped up in his mind, and his eyes flashed.
"That's right!" He looked at Bai Fengqi with a smile on his face and slowly said what he was thinking.
"Don't the Lu family have a daughter named Lu Qingqing, who is now an adult?"
Hearing what he said, Bai Fengqi had a bad feeling in his heart.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to stop her, he heard Zheng Chen continue: "This palace will accept Lu Qingqing as my wife, and when the time comes, his brother, Lu Shiyi, can go."
Seeing that Bai Fengqi did not stop him, he continued to express interest: "And it just so happens that the old man of the Lu family is about to abdicate, so Lu Shiyi can take over the military power. When the time comes, it will only benefit and not harm our palace to accept Lu Qingqing as our wife.
"
Hearing this, Bai Fengqi's eyebrows frowned severely.
It was impossible for him to let Zheng Chen have a relationship with the Lu family.
I have tried my best to assist Zheng Chen. If I let him marry the daughter of the Lu family, even if Zheng Chen succeeds to the throne, I will have nothing to do.
He immediately refused and said: "No, Your Highness."
"Why?"
Zheng Chen squinted at Bai Fengqi and asked coldly.
When he was thinking about Lu Qingqing's beauty, Bai Fengqi refused. How could this make him feel good?
Bai Fengqi heard his dissatisfaction and had to cautiously speak to dissuade him.
"Your Highness, Wei Chen believes that the Lu family will never provide help to you just because of marriage."
"What's more, the water is deep, and Lu Shiyi is unlikely to be willing to swim in it."
After he finished speaking, he faced Zheng Chen dripping with cold sweat.
He said that he would never let Zheng Chen marry the daughter of the Lu family.
Zheng Chen saw his reluctance, and couldn't help but show a touch of anger on his face.
Staring at Bai Fengqi coldly, he spoke in a bad tone.
"Then Baihou, tell me, who else can compare? (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 112: Rumors
Is Lu Shiyi more suitable?"
"Aside from Lu Shiyi, are there any other generals in the court who can help our palace complete its mission?!"
Hearing his words, Bai Fengqi was immediately choked up.
There is currently a shortage of generals in the DPRK, but there is no one like Lu Shiyi.
But even so, he gritted his teeth and firmly disagreed with Zheng Chen's proposal.
Seeing him like this, Zheng Chen couldn't show his shame openly.
He could only curse in his heart: Old stubborn!
Zheng Chen thought to himself for a while, then suddenly raised his head and stared at Bai Fengqi with a gloomy face: "Since Baihou feels that Lu Shiyi is not suitable, then let your son Bai Qingting go."
"I remember that he is of the right age."
He said in a sinister tone.
When Bai Fengqi heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
There was no way he would let his son go.
Even if this thing is successful, you will be rewarded by the emperor and even given an official position.
But we also have to weigh whether we have the life to enjoy this reward.
If he fails to succeed by then, not only his life will be lost, but the emperor will also harm his family.
There is absolutely no way he would let his son take such a risk.
He immediately knelt down and begged: "Your Highness, how can my son take on such a big responsibility?"
Hearing this, Zheng Chen's face completely drooped: "This won't work, and that won't work either. Baihou can think of a suitable candidate?!"
Bai Fengqi raised his head and looked at him. Knowing that he had made up his mind, he finally had to frown and nodded in agreement.
His expression was tense, and he remained silent after sitting back.
Zheng Chen's eyes are vicious, how could he not see Bai Fengqi's thoughts?
He couldn't help but snorted coldly: "Baihou, if you have nothing to do, please leave first."
Hearing this, Bai Fengqi glanced at Zheng Chen one last time and hesitated to speak, but soon he left without saying anything.
After a while, a guard came in.
Seeing Zheng Chen's ugly face, he couldn't help but asked anxiously: "What's wrong with Your Highness? Is it Baihou who made you unhappy?"
Hearing this, Zheng Chen snorted coldly: "More than just unhappy? I already want to kill him!"
He complained angrily: "You don't want me to marry Lu Qingqing and let Lu Shiyi help. I don't want his own son to help. What exactly does he want me to do?!"
Seeing this, the guard could only smile and comfort him: "The Baihou also worked hard for you..."
"If it weren't for the fact that he has really devoted himself to this palace before, otherwise this palace would have killed him long ago!"
Zheng Chen said viciously.
He didn't know what he thought of, and his expression suddenly started to smile again.
"This palace heard that Lu Qingqing was born and raised like a slim girl, so I wanted to take her as my wife."
Outside the palace gate.
A group of people gathered around the door on three levels outside and three levels inside.
There were constant sounds of women crying, and there were people pointing at the door of the house.
I saw Lan Qi and Lu Yigui leaning at the door of the house, their faces covered with tears, Lu Yi cried the most miserably.
"Please, Your Majesty, don't drive us away..."
"I want to see the princess, I want to see the princess..."
People around were pointing and saying: "These two are the concubines in the palace? Why did you run outside and cry so miserably?"
"Oh, don't you understand? The princess is jealous and jealous of the favor of these two concubines, so she encouraged the prince to drive them out."
"It's so miserable. What can two women do if they are kicked out? I'm afraid they will starve to death in the joint!"
The housekeeper stood at the door, listening to them twisting the facts, his expression darkened for a while.
In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer. He walked forward, stared at Lu Yi with a gloomy face, and said in a cold voice: "The prince drove you out of the palace because you were dishonest. This has nothing to do with the princess."
"If you want to hold a grudge in the future, just hold a grudge against me. If you hold a grudge against the princess, be careful that the prince will not forgive you lightly!"
Hearing this, Lu Yi's face showed a hint of grievance and fear, and she cried even louder: "Please, housekeeper (this chapter is not finished yet!)"
Chapter 112: Rumors
, don’t drive us away, please ask the prince to help us..."
Lan Qi couldn't stand it any longer. She quickly pulled Lu Yi's sleeve and said with a cold expression: "Your Majesty has made up his mind. Even if you beg again, it will be of no use. Let's go and save ourselves from being laughed at.
"
How could Lu Yi still listen to her words at this time?
She just kept begging for mercy.
Seeing this, Lan Qi shook her sleeves and walked away alone with her baggage.
Seeing this scene, the voices of the people around me became even louder.
"The princess is indeed a jealous woman!"
"That's right, I guess, these two concubines are so beautiful, if it weren't for the princess instigating the prince, the prince would not let the beauties sleep on the street!"
"Yes, yes! Women are just jealous!"
After hearing these remarks, the housekeeper became angry and asked the guards to drive away the onlookers.
But he could drive away people, but he couldn't drive away rumors.
For a time, Bai Wanrou's reputation as a tigress and jealous was completely spread out.
in the room.
Lu Zhu ran to Bai Wanrou's side angrily, with a look of anger on her face.
She said: "Miss, do you still have time to drink tea?"
Hearing her resentful words, Bai Wanrou had a look of confusion on her face: "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhu spoke angrily: "Miss, you don't know that the prince drove Lan Qi and Lu Yi out of the house, but they refused to leave and cried and begged at the door."
"Those who were watching the fun said it was your attention, and said you were jealous and a tigress!"
"This kind of rumor has already spread. Miss, you don't go out to explain."
Hearing her words, Bai Wanrou didn't seem to care.
She turned her head and looked at Luzhu with a smile, and asked calmly: "Then you say, I am a tigress, am I jealous?"
Lu Zhu was stunned and shook her head: "Of course not, Miss."
Hearing this, Bai Wanrou curled her lips slightly: "Then it's over."
"Since I'm not what they say, why are you so angry?"
"You know, rumors cannot be completely eliminated. If they like to talk, just let them talk. I'd better be myself."
Hearing this, Lu Zhu suddenly looked like he had a sudden realization: "I understand, Miss!"
