Cong Xuewei smiled slightly and said: "Okay, now that things are like this, let's all come into the house. Come on, come and sit with me. Hey, where is Prince Xuan? He was here just now, why not
Tell me and leave?"
Cong Yi'er thought for a moment, maybe Sima Yixuan just didn't like this kind of atmosphere, so he left after seeing that she was no longer in danger. However, she always felt some unspeakable feeling. As she thought, she suddenly heard
Sima Rong's voice rang in his ears. "Yi'er, what are you thinking about? Are you so lost in thought? Are you still worried? It will be okay. The same thing won't happen again next time? I invite you to drink incense.
Let’s have dinner upstairs, how about I help calm your nerves?”
"It's okay, I just got distracted suddenly." Cong Yier came back to her senses and smiled softly.
Sima Rong smiled softly and said: "Thanks to the emperor's timely action just now, I was a step late and only had time to ask."
After staying in Zhengyang Palace until lunch, Cong Yi'er was able to leave Zhengyang Palace. In fact, she felt a little anxious. She always felt that she should go see Sima Yixuan. It wasn't necessarily to explain anything, but she just felt that it seemed like she had met him.
I feel more at ease.
Sima Rong walked with her on the road and said with a smile: "Yier, where are you going?"
Cong Yi'er thought for a moment and said, "It's time to go to Prince Xuan's Mansion to thank Prince Xuan."
"This is just right." Sima Rong said with a smile, "You should really thank your uncle for saving you. We only ate with our father in Zhengyang Palace and neglected him for a while. We should go to the emperor's house."
Why don't you go to my uncle's place to say thank you? I'll go with you."
Cong Yier hesitated for a moment and said, "If you must go, it's up to you."
As soon as he arrived at the door of Prince Xuan's Mansion, he saw Gan Nan walking out in a hurry. When he saw the two of them, he was slightly stunned, stopped, saluted, and said, "I have met the Second Prince, Miss Cong."
Sima Rong smiled and said, "Come on, is your uncle here?"
Gan Nan glanced at Cong Yi'er and said softly: "Princess Rui is going to Zuihua Pavilion to listen to Miss Dierun playing the piano. Your Majesty accompanied Princess Rui there. Are you two okay?"
Cong Yi'er was stunned for a moment, a little surprised and vaguely disappointed, but after thinking about it, it seemed normal, "Did he say when he would be back?"
Gan Nan hesitated again and said softly: "Your Majesty, he didn't say anything. I feel that I might have to come back later today. Is Miss Cong anxious to see your Majesty? I'm about to go over. If anything happens, I will come back later."
You can convey it on your behalf."
"I want -" Cong Yier hesitated and said softly, "Forget it, it's nothing. I'm afraid Prince Xuan doesn't care about these red tapes. He just thinks about it all the time and doesn't say anything. Seeing that you are in a hurry, it should be
If Prince Xuan has something to do, you can go ahead."
Gan Nan nodded and said, "In that case, I will take my leave. You two can do whatever you want."
Sima Rong nodded, watched Gan Nan leave, and said with a smile: "Yi'er, in that case, why don't we also go out and have some fun? There are still a lot of interesting things in this capital, how about it?"
Cong Yi'er nodded. He had seen some interesting scenery on the road, so it would be a good idea to take a look.
In Zuihua Tower, the sound of the piano is melodious. Die Run is sitting in front of the piano, playing softly. Her delicate red dress and exquisite figure exude a kind of graceful charm. Princess Rui, who is dressed in a gorgeous dress, is sitting there.
Behind the table, he smiled and chatted with Sima Yixuan. Sima Yixuan sat with a calm expression, drinking wine, and it was unclear what his emotions were, and listened to Princess Rui's words.
"My lord," Princess Rui smiled and said softly, "I heard that the Cong sisters are vying to marry the second prince. Is Cong Yi'er one of them?"
Sima Yixuan raised the wine glass in his hand and said calmly: "Drink, the taste of this wine is better than these many boring topics."
Gan Nan walked in from the outside, nodded to Gan Bei who was standing in front of the door, saluted Sima Yixuan, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, my subordinate has already brought what you want." At this point,
Gan Nan hesitated for a moment, then paused and continued: "Your Majesty, when my subordinate came back just now, he met the Second Prince and Miss Cong at the gate of the palace. It seems that Miss Cong came to see you for something, so the subordinate asked a lot.
, if there is anything that needs to be conveyed to the subordinates, Miss Cong hesitated for a moment and said, 'Forget it, it's nothing. I'm afraid Prince Xuan doesn't care about these red tapes, just think about it all the time, don't say anything.'"
Sima Yixuan listened to Gan Nan quietly and said calmly: "But she took the word thank you to heart. It's rare that she still remembers it. It's okay. Let's go down."
Gan Nan was a little confused, but still respectfully stepped out.
Princess Rui suddenly smiled and said, "I'm afraid that this girl Cong has also fallen in love with you. Prince Xuan, you are really doing a lot of harm to others."
Sima Yixuan drank slowly and said nothing.
Princess Rui was about to continue talking when Dierun suddenly put her finger on the piano and stroked lightly, and a new tune gently rippled around, blocking Princess Rui's next words at the right time. Princess Rui was angry.
She looked at Dierun, but Dierun lowered her head and looked at Qin intently, as if Princess Rui didn't exist at all. Princess Rui looked at Sima Yixuan, who leaned on the back of the chair, with his eyes closed, without saying a word.
, quietly listening to the sound of the piano. Princess Rui swallowed the following words and did not dare to disturb Sima Yixuan. Although she did not understand what Sima Yixuan was thinking, she knew that Sima Yixuan's silence actually contained great meaning.
It's better not to provoke the danger.
The night gradually got darker, and the lively atmosphere became more and more intense. People on the street were noisy with their children. Cong Yier felt that this was no different from the modern times she lived in. Except that there were fewer modern items, but more
There was a rare sense of leisure. Holding the various objects in her hand, the smile on Cong Yi'er's face became thicker and thicker. She really liked this place more and more.
Several people were walking towards her, and Cong Yier looked up just in time to see them. They seemed to be looking at her, but their eyes were turning around and looking around, as if they were walking on the street but not in the street. Their appearance
It seemed that they were not from the Daxing Dynasty. Their eyes were not like those of the Daxing Dynasty. They had more calmness and confidence in their eyes, because they always lived in a kind of dependable prosperity. She suddenly felt something bad.
premonition——
When they were approaching Cong Yi'er, they suddenly quickened their pace. One of them seemed to have bumped into Cong Yi'er accidentally. Cong Yi'er subconsciously flashed, and the man was knocked into the air, and his body suddenly leaned forward.
Unable to hold his feet, he fell to the ground, attracting the attention of passers-by.
"How do you walk!" Sima Rong said angrily, "Open your eyes and bump into people. You are from the Wumeng Kingdom. Why don't you know how to restrain yourself when you reach the Daxing Dynasty?"
Wumeng Kingdom? Cong Yier suddenly thought of Princess Rui. Her first intuition was that this was related to her living in Prince Xuan’s Mansion. How could Princess Rui ignore her existence?! A dignified princess from Wumeng Kingdom could only live in
In the Villa of Prince Xuan's Mansion, she, a little Cong Yi'er, could stay overnight in Prince Xuan's Mansion. How could Princess Rui swallow such a sigh of relief? She only came out now, but she was already patient enough.
The man who fell to the ground stood up immediately, trying hard to maintain his dignity. He glanced at Cong Yi'er with suspicious eyes and kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Cong Yier smiled and said in a very low voice, "They are Princess Rui's subordinates, right? Why did they only show up today? It's rare that Princess Rui can tolerate my presence so much." As she said that, she was thinking about that.
The late flower blue, the mystery in that flower blue.
The man trembled slightly, glanced at Cong Yi'er secretly, and said in a stern voice: "I was careless, I didn't do it on purpose. Please forgive me, Miss Cong. I just focused on shopping and watching the scenery."
, did not notice Miss Cong and the Second Prince——"
Cong Yi'er couldn't help but smile and said softly: "It's really not unintentional, it's really intentional. If you were a passerby, how would you know that I am Cong Yi'er? How would you know that he is the second prince? If Princess Rui knew,
I’m afraid you won’t be able to relieve your anger even if I eat it raw.”
The man's expression changed, his body swayed slightly, and he fell softly to the ground.
Cong Yi'er was stunned for a moment and thought: It was just a joke on him, why should he be so scared?
"Come here!" Sima Rong said loudly. The entourage not far behind them immediately appeared around the two of them. Cong Yi'er was stunned for a moment. She really didn't notice that Sima Rong had brought so many people with him.
He knew that someone was following him, but he didn't expect that when Sima Rong said something, more than a dozen people would show up. This was different from Sima Yixuan. Sima Yixuan usually only had Gan Nan and Gan Bei following him. Sometimes, there were even no one following him.
The people followed, "Catch these people and take them back. This man actually committed suicide by taking poison. There must be a reason!"
Several other people wanted to run away at this time, but they were instantly surrounded. Everyone's expressions changed for a moment. Cong Yier was shocked and saw several people falling softly like the previous one.
On the ground, I didn't even have time to take a second look. Life is so fragile and death is so simple. Why can't I just die like this? Maybe I don't have the courage to kill myself, and I have an inexplicable curiosity about this time and space.
"Take these people back and carefully check who brought them into the Daxing Dynasty. Judging from their clothes and skills, they should have martial arts skills, and they don't look like businessmen. If they are not businessmen, they should not be able to come and go freely.
Daxing Dynasty, go and check it out immediately!" Sima Rong said coldly, "They were so scared that they took the poison immediately. They must not want their identity to be known. Go and check it out, why are they embarrassing you?"
"Forget it, maybe they are scared. There is not much contact between Daxing Dynasty and Wumeng Kingdom now. They took this step because they were worried. They have already lost their lives, so let's not worry about it for the time being." Cong Yi'er said softly.
explain.
Sima Rong glanced at Cong Yi'er and said: "This matter is not that simple. They should know the two of us, otherwise they would not bump into you so deliberately on the street. If you hadn't just happened to dodge, I'm afraid it would have been
The person lying on the ground now is not this person, but you. The Daxing Dynasty has rules. If people from the Wumeng Kingdom use medicine to harm people from the Daxing Dynasty, it will be an unforgivable death penalty."
Cong Yi'er watched Sima Rong's entourage leave with the corpses of these people. Under the light of the lanterns swinging around, the street scene suddenly became a little strange. She subconsciously glanced at the Zuihua Tower in the distance. In this ancient time, perhaps it was not
It's not always calm.
"Don't be afraid, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen." Sima Rong looked at Cong Yi'er's dazed expression and thought she was frightened, so he comforted her gently, "People from the Wumeng Kingdom don't dare to embarrass you easily.
As the second princess, you are protected by the masters in the palace when you go in and out. A small role like this cannot get close to you at all."
Cong Yi'er nodded unconsciously. In fact, she didn't hear what Sima Rong said at all.
"Yi'er, come stay at my house tonight." Sima Rong said softly, "You are not Xiai, you can't deal with the people of Wumeng country, you don't know martial arts, and you don't know how to detoxify. At present, we don't know anything about Wumeng."
Why do the Mongolian people deal with you? It's better for you to stay near me, that way, it will be safer."
Cong Yi'er didn't say anything, thought for a while and said: "I don't want to cause more trouble. If I go to the Second Prince's Mansion, if people from Wumeng Kingdom target me, it will make you angry. I'd better go back to Prince Xuan's Mansion."
Princess Rui is there. If the people of Wumeng Kingdom really want to target me, they will never take action in Prince Xuan's Mansion and let everyone focus on Princess Rui. Moreover, with Prince Xuan here, no one will take this risk.
, you just have time to deal with these suicides."
Sima Rong was a little disappointed and said: "Do you still trust the emperor's uncle more than you trust me? You don't want to stay in the second prince's house. Do you think that the safety I can give you cannot be compared with the safety that the emperor's uncle can give you?"
Cong Yier glanced at Sima Rong and said: "What you need is to solve the problem, and what I need is to ensure my own safety. This is not inconsistent. If I were at your place in the Second Prince's Mansion, you would have to take care of me."
, and neglected to find out the truth."
"I hope this is what you really think." Sima Rong murmured softly and did not object again, "Okay, if you must do this, but tonight, will Uncle Huang return to Prince Xuan's Mansion?"
Cong Yi'er was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly and said: "I'm not him, so how do I know if he will come back tonight? I'm just staying in Prince Xuan's Mansion, and I can do as I please, and I can't restrain his behavior. Sima Rong,
You can rest assured that even if he is not here, no one would dare to cause any wrongdoing in Prince Xuan's Mansion."
