Chapter 31 Yunxiao Temple-5

"Everyone, get out of here!" Following the sound of cups hitting the ground of the East Palace, several palace residents hurriedly retreated from the palace.

The Crown Princess Zhao Peiyu happened to be outside the door of the Prince's bedroom at this time. When she saw the palace servants serving the Prince coming out in embarrassment, she felt a thump in her heart and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with the Prince?"

Mr. Rongfu, the steward of the East Palace, was the personal eunuch serving the crown prince. When he saw that the crown princess was coming, he quickly knelt down and saluted with all the other palace officials: "Greetings to the crown prince and queen."

Zhao Peiyu has always respected the steward. She raised her hand to support Rong Fu and said, "Without courtesy. What's wrong with the prince?"

Rong Fu was helped to his feet by his apprentice behind him, wiped away the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and said humbly: "In reply to the Crown Princess. This... isn't this the emperor's decree to the General's Palace yesterday that the wedding date has been set?

…When the marriage decree was given a few days ago, the prince thought that Miss Liang had a strong temper and would definitely break off the engagement...Who knew...she actually agreed to the marriage...Seeing that the wedding was approaching, the prince had to be anxious..."

Rong Fu's hesitation was not very clear, but everyone around the prince knew the reason.

The prince was simply worried that the marriage between Prince Jing's Palace and the General's Palace would threaten his status. When the current emperor disliked the prince and had every intention of deposing the prince, the prime minister and the king of Shu wrote to persuade him. The emperor thought of the late queen,

So the matter was always put on hold.

However, the prince's literary skills were not outstanding, and his military skills were not outstanding, and he was even more inferior to Prince Jing, who was outstanding in both literature and martial arts.

In the past, he always relied on the fact that he had a civil prime minister and a military officer, the King of Shu, so he did not pay attention to Prince Jing, whose mother's family had no background. Now, Concubine Mei actually persuaded the emperor to grant a marriage. Not only did Qi Jingqin, who had always been elegant, not

Although he objected, what was even more annoying was that that girl Liang Huanqing actually agreed.

When the two of them get married, General Jianwei will definitely side with Prince Jing, and the group of courtiers in the court who will act according to the changing circumstances will definitely fall to Prince Jing like grass on the wall. Thinking of this, it is reasonable for the prince to get angry.

.

Zhao Peiyu smiled and said to Rong Fu: "It's okay. Please step aside first while I go to persuade the prince."

Rong Fu nodded and blessed his body, and said: "Then I have to thank the Crown Princess for trouble. The Crown Prince is very angry right now, so the Queen must be careful what she says."

Rongfu was a little older and was an old eunuch who watched the prince grow up. He felt sorry for the prince from the bottom of his heart. The princess seemed arrogant and domineering on the outside, but in fact she suffered a lot of injustice from the prince.

However, in the face of this, she didn't take it to heart at all, and focused on taking care of the affairs of the East Palace for the prince and appeasing other concubines.

Rong Fu felt sorry for her but also had a little admiration for her.

Zhao Peiyu nodded and walked towards the palace. Han Yao behind her immediately stepped forward to open the door for her.

"Didn't I tell you to get out and leave me alone!" Before she could walk in, an inkstone hit her feet, and the black ink dyed a huge flower on her skirt.

, she took two steps back, looking a little surprised.

Han Yao behind him couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice when he saw it: "Ah!"

Zhao Peiyu quickly gave Han Yao a wink and told her to be silent.

Han Yao nodded apologetically and followed Zhao Peiyu with her hands lowered.

Hanyao was a dowry maid who followed her daughter from Shuzhong to Beijing.

She knew that the prince married the young lady entirely because of the power of the king of Shu, and the young lady tried so hard to marry the prince, but it was actually because of a fleeting glance when she was young. However, the prince did not remember it at all...

Zhao Peiyu, the dignified Crown Princess and the eldest daughter of the King of Shu, seems to have an unparalleled status. But who would have known that after she married the incompetent prince, she would face the crowds of concubines in the East Palace and a husband who did not love her at all.

Seeing her beloved lingering in other people's tender homes all day long, she could only swallow her anger and compromise, and only she knew the sadness in it.

Prince Qi Jingyang was sitting on the couch. When he saw Zhao Peiyu coming in, he only glanced at her sideways, closed his eyes and lay down again.

Zhao Peiyu calmed down her mood, walked around the inkstone, walked to the middle of the hall, leaned down and saluted: "Greetings to the prince."

Qi Jingyang was silent for a while, until Zhao Peiyu's bent knees began to tremble, he slowly opened his eyes, sat up, looked at her, and said, "Pingshen."

Zhao Peiyu slowly stood up straight, and Han Yao behind her immediately stepped forward to support her, fearing that if she fell she would offend the prince.

"If you don't just stay in your own bedroom, why are you here?" Qi Jingyang said with a frown.

Outside, he and Zhao Peiyu acted out beautiful scenes of respecting each other and being harmonious as husband and wife, but there was no need to worry about these things in his East Palace.

Everyone in the East Palace knows that the person the prince hates the most is the princess, but the person he can't live without is the princess.

Zhao Peiyu smiled lightly. She always maintained a gentle and dignified look in front of Qi Jingyang, completely different from the arrogant and domineering princess at the Flower Festival a dozen days ago.

She said: "I learned that the prince was troubled by the marriage between Prince Jing and Liang Huanqing, so I came here to relieve the prince's worries."

"Oh?" Qi Jingyang's eyes suddenly lit up and he became interested, "Tell me and listen."

Zhao Peiyu turned around and glanced at Han Yao. Han Yao understood, leaned over and exited the hall. At this time, there were only two of them in the hall.

Zhao Peiyu walked a few steps forward and knelt down next to the table. She poured a glass of wine and handed it to Qi Jingyang. Seeing him take the bottle, she said unhurriedly: "The purpose of Prince Jing's marriage to the Liang Mansion is

Everyone knows that Sima Zhao’s intentions are nothing more than coveting the position of prince and wanting to be on par with you. However, this marriage was granted by the emperor. Not to mention you and me, not even Prince Jing and General Liang can refuse it..."

Qi Jingyang took the wine bottle and drank it in one gulp. When Zhao Peiyu saw that he had finished drinking, he took it and filled up another glass.

"Then what? What do you want to say?" Qi Jingyang asked when he saw that she did not continue.

She smiled and said: "When I was in the palace in Qishan, I wanted to ruin her reputation so that she would be ashamed of the marriage. Unexpectedly, Prince Jing, who always ignored worldly affairs, came to intervene. Now the wedding is approaching.

, according to old folk customs, a woman should go to a temple to pray for blessings before getting married. However, the most famous temple away from Shangjing is Yunxiao Temple. Yunxiao Temple is located in a sparsely populated mountain. The road from Shangjing to Yunxiao Temple is difficult and dangerous, and the surroundings are deserted. If you send

If people pretend to be ambushed by bandits on the way... Haha... As long as Liang Huanqing is dead, how can Prince Jing marry the General's Mansion?"

The two of them looked at each other, and Qi Jingyang understood what she meant.

He asked: "Then do you know when they will set off?"

Zhao Peiyu nodded and said: "At noon today, Liang Huanqing and Qin Ruilan set off with a few guards."

"And Qin Ruilan?" He didn't expect that there would be an unrelated person.

Zhao Peiyu smiled, with a trace of cruelty flashing in her eyes, and she said: "A mere servant's daughter... Even if she dies, she won't be able to make a difference."

Qi Jingyang's brows relaxed. Although Zhao Peiyu did not like him, in these aspects, she was the only one who understood his thoughts best.

The carriage drove swaying for a long time, and Liang Huanqing woke up three or four times in succession.

With a burst of ethereal bell ringing, she lifted the curtain and saw the ancient temple with wisps of smoke rising not far away. She said happily: "Is it almost there?"

The retainer who was accompanying the carriage on horseback craned his neck, looked ahead, and said, "As for Miss, this mountain road is gentle, and there is still a long way to go from Yunxiao Temple."

Hearing this, Liang Huanqing's eyes darkened again. He lowered the curtain and sat in the carriage dejectedly, complaining to Yuebai: "Why is this Yunxiao Temple built in such a remote mountain? It's really exhausting."

Yuebai smiled and comforted: "Miss, there is a saying that if the mountain is not high, there will be immortals, and if the water is not deep, there will be dragons and spirits. Even if Yunxiao Temple is built in such a remote mountain, it still can't stand its reputation. People say it is here.

Praying at Yunxiao Temple is the most effective."
