Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Second Pleasure Begets Sadness
The expressions of everyone present suddenly became a little subtle. Emperor Ning seemed to be very shocked. Half of the officials behind him had lowered their eyes, wishing to bury themselves in the ground. There were also some who had expressions on their faces that clearly showed a hint of anger in their eyes.
Yunshang looked at each one of them one by one and secretly remembered them.
"Prime Minister Li! Could it be that you are here to bring bad luck to me today? I know that you are the head of the civil service, and I am the military officer. You have always looked down on us reckless men. I usually just pretend that I don't know, and I will treat you well."
I am also very respectful. I am flattered that you are willing to come to my king’s birthday banquet today. However, your actions in this matter really make me a little unhappy. I also ask the emperor to make the decision for me.” Prince Jing looked a little unhappy.
Good looking, he glared at Prime Minister Li and said with a cold face, then turned around and saluted Emperor Ning.
Emperor Ning's eyes fell on Prime Minister Li, who was wearing only his underwear and his face was flushed. He was naturally very happy, but he also frowned, "Prime Minister, what happened today is that you went too far. Besides, Miss Cangyang
You are a distinguished guest from Yelang Kingdom, why are you..." At this point, Emperor Ning sighed, his eyes full of disappointment.
Yun Shang's eyes fell on Cang Jue Qingsu, who had been silent, and saw him frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something. In a blink of an eye, he saw the faces of everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion were filled with shock and anger, and the Prime Minister's wife was even more pale.
With a face on his face, he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
Prime Minister Li gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, "I am guilty, and I am willing to apologize to Prince Jing. As for Miss Cangyang, I am willing to take responsibility for today's incident, which has damaged Miss Cangyang's reputation."
Cang Yang Yu'er, who was on the ground, seemed to have realized what had happened, and her eyes could not hide the astonishment. Yun Shang naturally knew that her plan was originally aimed at her father, but Cang Yang Yu'er was able to defeat him.
He is a good calculator, but perhaps he was also instigated by Cang Jue Qingsu. Before he could hook up with Prince Jing, he wanted to plot against his father. However, he didn't know that there seemed to be only a few servants in the palace, but in fact it was full of people.
How could the things she discussed with her maid be hidden from her if she knew the secret guard?
Yun Shang curled up the corner of her mouth, looking at her anxious look, she sneered secretly in her heart, what Qianyin said just now, saying that Cangyang Yu'er originally didn't want to seduce Emperor Ning, but she just thought that although Emperor Ning had already
She is middle-aged, but her appearance is handsome, and if this plan is successful, she will be a concubine of superiors, so she obeyed. But she did not expect that she would be taken advantage of by an old man in her prime.
Moreover, even though Prime Minister Li is the leader of the ministers, he is just a minister. I think Cang Yang Yu'er must be quite unwilling to do so.
Cangyang Yu'er gritted her teeth and wanted to speak, but now she was lying naked on the ground, only blocking her key position. If she came forward at this time, she would definitely become a bigger laughing stock, but she really wanted to
Are you taking advantage of this old man?
Cangyang Yu'er was extremely upset. The maid had obviously said that Emperor Ning was in this room. She was nervous just now, and it was dark with the door closed, so she couldn't see the person on the bed clearly, but she didn't expect... No,
I am at the same age as a flower, and I cannot waste my time on this aging old prime minister.
Cang Yang Yu'er opened her mouth, but before the words came out, she heard Cang Jue Qingsu's voice, "Although I don't know why such a thing happened, but since Prime Minister Li said he will take responsibility, then
It is not convenient for me, the prince, to say anything more, but after all, Yu'er is also the adopted daughter of our Yelang Kingdom's national master. As a distinguished national master, if he knew that something like this happened to Yu'er, he would definitely be very sad."
Prime Minister Li gritted his teeth. He was not stupid. He naturally knew what Cang Jue Qingsu meant when he said this. Cang Jue Qingsu wanted to win over him, so he found a step for him to climb down. However, he emphasized that Cang Yang
Yu'er has a distinguished status, so I want to give her a status. However, no matter what, Cangyang Yu'er is just a foreign woman. Marrying a foreign woman is already a taboo for the emperor. If she returns it,
Too high a status...
"Your Majesty, I know that I am sorry for Miss Cangyang, but Weichen's wife has been married to Weichen for forty years. She has always been tolerant and generous, and has good moral character. She has also raised five children for Weichen. Weichen has really done his best.
Don't come up with this matter of abandoning your wife and children..." Prime Minister Li bowed to Emperor Ning with a dull voice.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Emperor Ning's lips. Since Prime Minister Li's wife has been able to maintain her position as the head wife for so many years and has always respected Prime Minister Li as a guest, she must be a capable person. And Cangyang Yu'er has a fierce temper and is young and beautiful.
Beautiful, I wonder what it will be like when these two people meet.
"The Prime Minister is joking, but this matter is indeed a bit difficult to handle. The Prime Minister's wife has always been a role model for all the ladies in the imperial city, but Miss Cang Yang is also a noble woman of the Yelang Kingdom. How about this, you marry Miss Cang Yang as your equal wife
Well, in this way, we can have both worlds." Emperor Ning said solemnly.
Everyone was shocked. It was naturally the best way to be an equal wife, but... everyone looked at Cangyang Yu'er who was naked on the ground and seemed to have been forgotten by everyone. Can such a woman be worthy of the position of the Prime Minister's wife?
Prime Minister Li was naturally very angry, but he also knew that if he didn't agree and the trouble continued, he would be the one to suffer after all. He might as well accept it happily and maybe save some reputation, so he nodded and said,
"I obey the decree."
Emperor Ning nodded and seemed to suddenly react, "Here you come, why don't you hurry up and get some clothes for the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister's wife?"
At the side, Cang Yang Yu'er and Prime Minister Li's servants hurriedly entered the room, took out their clothes, and put them on Cang Yang Yu'er and Prime Minister Li.
Yun Shang curled her lips, now, I am afraid that everyone in the Li family will be laughed at in private for a while.
It is truly earth-shattering for the head of a dignified official to do such an immoral thing.
Yun Shang raised her eyes, but suddenly she was looking at Prince Jing thoughtfully. Her heart skipped a beat, and the corner of her mouth twitched. She seemed to have gotten carried away.
Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Emperor Ning was too lazy to intervene anymore. He waved his hand and said, "I'm almost sober from the wine. There are still things to deal with in the palace, so I'm going back to the palace first."
"I will respectfully send you off to your Majesty." Everyone knelt down and saluted.
After Emperor Ning left, everyone stood up one after another, but suddenly heard a sound of "ah". When everyone turned around, they saw Cangyang Yu'er standing up in a hurry, and the clothes she had just put on slipped off again.
When she was on the ground, she subconsciously screamed. Seeing everyone looking at her, her face turned pale. She couldn't care about anything else and ran towards the house.
"Pfft..." I don't know who couldn't help laughing. Yun Shang turned her eyes, but she didn't see who it was. She only saw that everyone in the Li family had pale faces...
"Prince Jing, what happened today is too old. Please forgive me. I'm going back home first." Prime Minister Li cupped his hands towards Prince Jing, then turned around and left.
Seeing this, everyone in the Li Mansion naturally did not dare to stay any longer, fearing that they would lose their composure if they stayed for a while longer, so they hurriedly followed Prime Minister Li and left.
As soon as Prime Minister Li left, many people said goodbye with great discernment. Yun Shang stood beside King Jing and said goodbye one by one. After a while, only Wang Jinyan and Wang Jinhuan were left, and Wang Jinyan and Wang Jinhuan smiled.
After making a sound, Yun Shang looked sternly and pointed to the yard behind her. She wanted to say that Cangyang Yu'er was still in the house behind her. Don't be too indifferent.
Prince Jing looked back, his eyes full of disgust, "Out of sight is out of mind, go sit in the front hall for a while, I'll have someone drive her out, and then demolish the attic." He raised his feet as he said that.
Go to the front hall.
Wang Jinhuan walked up, put his hand on Prince Jing's shoulder, and said something with a smile. Prince Jing raised his hand and knocked his hand away. Wang Jinhuan was also a thick-skinned man, but after a moment, he came up again, Yun
Shang frowned slightly, his injury...
"Princess, let's go over and sit for a while." He lowered his voice and said, "The ugly look of Cangyang Yu'er just now is really pleasing to the heart. Princess, if something like this happens to a person who covets your prince, how can you do it?
Happy?"
Yun Shang saw her smiling face and glared at her, "Fuck you."
In the front hall, the Wang brothers and sisters laughed for a while before leaving with satisfaction. Only Yun Shang and Prince Jing were left in the front hall, and they fell silent.
Prince Jing sighed, raised his eyes and looked at Yun Shang and said, "You are so bold!"
Yun Shang raised her eyes with a smile that made Prince Jing's heart soften a little. He couldn't bear to talk about her anymore and just said, "Don't be so willful next time. It's just that Prime Minister Li didn't investigate today."
, he naturally knew that he had been drugged. If he had asked for an investigation before, I am afraid that sooner or later he would have been traced to you. You dare to do such a thing on the spur of the moment without preparing anything. I heard
The housekeeper said, you have been busy all the time, how can you still think about designing them?"
"Uncle Emperor, what you said is that the person who led the way for your father was the steward of your house. If the uncle hadn't deliberately asked the steward to lead him to the wrong room, how could Chang'er have succeeded so easily?" Yun Chang looked at him with a smile.
Prince Jing, "Besides, since Chang'er dares to do it, he is sure of it. Prime Minister Li always cherishes his face and will never admit that he was drugged, especially in front of you and your father."
Moreover, Cang Yang Yu'er's identity is neither embarrassing nor embarrassing. Although she is just the adopted daughter of a national master, she is also the envoy brought to the imperial city by Cang Jue Qingsu. No matter what, the facts are before everyone, Prime Minister Li must
It is impossible to confront Cang Jue Qingsu in front of everyone, otherwise, my father will definitely be angry with him. He has been careful for half his life to maintain his current position, how could he let himself capsize in the gutter."
Prince Jing shook his head, "You have found out his thoughts clearly. Although you are a little impulsive, you can't do this again next time. This time, I will take care of the consequences for you. Next time, I won't do anything.
That’s it.”
A bright light flashed in Yun Shang's eyes, she nodded with a smile, and raised her eyes without looking to please Prince Jing, "Uncle Huang is the best."
Flattery will not kill anyone. Yun Shang smiled slightly. The ending of his previous life made him understand a lot. He knew that although he had certain abilities now, he was still a little weak. At this time, it would be best to find a backer.
.
But he didn't know how many waves his words stirred up in Prince Jing's heart.
The palace manager hurriedly walked in, saluted Prince Jing and Yun Shang, and then said softly, "Princess, this Qianqian girl said that she has something to do with the princess."
Yun Shang's expression changed, and she turned to look at Prince Jing with a smile, "Uncle Emperor, can I borrow your study?"
Prince Jing nodded indifferently, waved his hand for the manager to take Yun Shang over, and then turned around and walked towards the yard where he lived.
When Yun Shang arrived at the study, Ning Qian was already waiting in the study. When she heard the sound of opening the door, Ning Qian turned her head and looked at Yun Shang with clear and cold eyes. Yun Shang was stunned for a moment.
Then he smiled and said, "Qian Qian's look made my bones tingle a bit."
Ning Qian smiled slightly, "Master, please don't tease Ning Qian."
Yun Shang smiled, did not answer, walked to the chair behind the desk and sat down, looking around. Ning Qian knew what she was worried about, shook her head and said, "My subordinates have already checked the surrounding areas before they came in."
There are no secret guards."
Yun Shang nodded. Although she and Prince Jing are now closer, she still has to guard against him in some matters, and she must be on guard against others.
Originally, he should go to a place he could trust to talk things over, but now that things are not ordinary in the imperial city, it is better not to cause unnecessary trouble. Prince Jing's Mansion has always existed like an iron barrel, at least there will definitely be no outsiders.
"What have Qianqian been doing these days?" Yun Shang said casually.
Ning Qian lowered her head with a very respectful expression, "The princess ordered her subordinates to investigate Prince Jing carefully, but there was no way around the prince to do anything, so the subordinates could only start with Wang Jinhuan. The subordinates discovered that Wang Jinhuan was investigating the prince of Prince Shunqing's mansion.
Ning Ye, that’s why we got closer to him, and my subordinates discovered that Ning Ye and the outside world are almost completely different from each other, even though he disguised himself very well..."
"Oh? Tell me..." The last time Yun Shang saw Ning Qian, he knew that she had been staying with Ning Ye for some time. When she heard her mention this, she was a little distracted.
Ning Qian pondered for a moment and then said, "Ning Ye has martial arts, and is not bad at all. He has a very cautious temperament. He is almost different from the playboy rumored by outsiders."
"He is in Prince Shunqing's Mansion. Although Prince Shunqing has always been idle, he cannot avoid some fights in the house. I'm afraid he is just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger." Yun Shang said softly.
Ning Qian shook her head, "My subordinates discovered that Ning Ye's handwriting now is completely different from before. I quietly sent someone to inquire, saying that Ning Ye fell into the water four years ago and gave birth to a child.
I got seriously ill, and then things changed a lot..."
When Yun Shang heard this, she couldn't help but straighten her expression. This matter seemed a bit strange. Could it be that Ning Ye was like her?
"A few days ago, Ning Ye had contact with a person. That person seemed to be a subordinate of the third prince of Yelang Kingdom..." Ning Qian said softly.
The third prince of Yelang Kingdom? Yun Shang was shocked, and his expression changed unpredictably. Could it be that this Ning Ye is actually a craftsman sent by Cang Jue Qingsu? This identity is indeed a good cover-up. Everyone feels that if it is
Naturally, the less conspicuous the better, but I never thought of using Xizhuo to replace a distinguished prince.
"If you keep staring, don't try to alert the enemy." Yun Shang thought for a moment and said softly.
Ning Qian nodded and said, "In all the palaces in the imperial city, subordinates have sent people in according to the master's instructions, especially the prime minister's palace, a total of seventy-three people have been sent in, and all the troops at the border have also been sent in."
We are ready. The background checks of those people are very innocent. No matter how much they check, they can't find the princess. Moreover, they are all smart. It won't take long before they can be put to use."
Yun Shang nodded, "I always feel at ease when you do things."
Ning Qian took out another stack of parchment from her sleeve and handed it to Yun Shang, "This is the information collected by the sisters during this period. My subordinates sifted through it and wrote down everything they thought was useful.
Already."
Yun Shang took it, read it ten lines at a glance, frowned slightly, took out the flint and lit the fire, threw the paper aside and burned it to ashes on the plate.
"Okay, I know everything. The concubine is about to give birth. You can send more people there. I don't trust the stable women sent by the palace. You can find a few people who know everything and let them go. If necessary, use necessary means. Be sure to
Ensure the safety of the mother-in-law and the child in her belly." Yun Shang said in a deep voice.
"Yes, I understand." Ning Qian responded, and Yun Shang waved her hand to let her leave.
As soon as Ning Qian left, Yun Shang went out and went to Prince Jing's bedroom. As soon as he entered, he saw Prince Jing lying on the couch wearing only a white middle coat. The jade crown that bound his hair had also been removed.
The bed was covered with silk, and it looked the same as usual, cold and cold, but it actually had a faint smell of laziness.
Yun Shang paused before walking in.
"Is it agreed?" Prince Jing raised his eyes and glanced at her, leaving Yun Shang stunned. Even though he was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, he couldn't help but suddenly stopped in his heart and secretly screamed something bad.
Yun Shang stood for a while before coming back to her senses. She lowered her head and stopped looking at the man on the couch. However, she didn't notice that the corners of Prince Jing's mouth were slightly raised, with a very happy look on his face.
"Well, thank you very much, uncle." Yun Shang said softly.
Prince Jing softly said "Hmm" and said nothing more. Yun Shang did not dare to raise his head, and did not know what Prince Jing's situation was. He was silent for a moment before speaking again, "Just now Qianqian told me, that Ning
There seems to be something wrong with Ye. After Chang'er's last outing, she discovered that Prince Wang seemed to be testing Ning Ye intentionally or unintentionally, so the emperor must have known about it."
"Huh?" Prince Jing raised his eyebrows, "What? I don't know. What did Miss Qianqian say to you?"
Yun Shang was a little stunned. She raised her eyes to look at Prince Jing, but saw him raising his eyes and staring at her. She was startled again and lowered her head in panic, "Qianqian said, Ning Ye has been there since four years ago.
After he fell into the water and was rescued, he seemed like a different person, his temperament was different, his hobbies were different, and even his handwriting changed a lot."
"Oh?" Perhaps Yun Shang's reaction just now pleased Prince Jing. Prince Jing raised his eyebrows with a smile in his eyes, but his expression was a bit distracted. Unfortunately, Yun Shang, who kept his head down, did not notice it.
"Qianqian said that a few days ago, Ning Ye had contact with people from Cangjue Qingsu. Chang'er felt that Ning Ye was probably a workmanship of Yelang Kingdom."
"Well, okay." Prince Jing responded softly, but couldn't help but chuckle.
Only then did Yun Shang realize that she seemed to have been tricked by Prince Jing. She just said, since Prince Jing asked Wang Jinhuan to investigate, how could he not know about this?
Yun Chang raised his head with some annoyance and looked at the man who was smiling happily on the soft couch. His face turned slightly dark. After a while, he said, "Uncle Emperor, are you happy to tease Chang'er?"
When Prince Jing heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and replied, "It's not bad."
Yun Chang became even more angry with embarrassment. She stared at Prince Jing hatefully for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "Uncle, please continue laughing. Chang'er will leave first." After saying that, he walked out angrily.
Qianyin and Qinyi were shocked when they saw Yunshang's face turned red and she rushed out angrily. They quickly said, "What's wrong with the princess? But who bullied the princess."
Just as he was talking, he heard a burst of laughter coming from Prince Jing's bedroom. The voice was low and a bit hoarse. It was indescribably pleasant. However, when Yun Shang heard it, his expression became even more stiff and he stamped his feet.
Stomping his feet, he rushed out of the yard.
Qian Yin and Qin Yi looked at each other, understood something in their hearts, and quickly followed, "Princess, wait a minute, slave."
Yun Shang got on the carriage, still thinking about Prince Jing's appearance just now. She bit her lip and sighed. Although she had been teased by him just now, she had to admit that that guy was really good-looking.
But he was shocked by the thoughts deep in his heart. He was still thinking about Prince Jing...
She was shocked and gritted her teeth. No, she couldn't sink in anymore. She couldn't stumble on love again in this life. Besides, Prince Jing could never be completely trusted. Naturally, she
He will never forget that he has that ambition for the throne. Although Emperor Ning is not a good husband or an old father, he is very concerned about political affairs, at least he can barely be considered a good emperor.
She can never protect her mother and concubine for the rest of her life, so if she gives birth to a son this time, then she must push her brother to that position. Only with supreme power can she protect the person she wants to protect.
Qianyin and Qinyi watched Yun Shang's expressions changing constantly, and couldn't help but exchange colors, with their eyes full of smiles.
The carriage stopped, and Yun Shang came back to her senses, "Hey, we're here?" Was he actually in a daze all the way?
Qian Yin and Yun Shang both laughed out loud. Qian Yin smiled and stretched out his hand to hold the armrest of the carriage door. Just as he was about to push it open, a sound of chicken crow suddenly came from outside. Qian Yin and Yun Shang
Everyone was stunned, and Yun Shang's expression suddenly turned ugly, "It seems that this is not the entrance to the palace..."
Qinyi covered her mouth, and a flash of panic flashed in Qianyin's eyes, but she immediately calmed down, "Princess..."
Yun Shang didn't panic at all. Although she was a little annoyed that she was just in a daze and didn't notice anything unusual, she also knew that it was useless to think about it now, so she lowered her voice and shouted outside the carriage, "I don't know where it is."
You took such trouble to bring this princess here?" (To be continued)
