Yun Shang smiled slightly and did not refute. He lowered his head and looked at the map of Xia Kingdom.
Prince Jing's blood relatives are probably from the Xia Kingdom. Although he always seemed not to care and was indifferent to Duke Hua, she always felt that she wanted to be an enemy of his relatives.
He felt faintly distressed.
After marrying Prince Jing, she became more and more frightened by Prince Jing's power. It had been 20 years since his father ascended the throne. If Prince Jing had really wanted to seize the throne, I'm afraid that Ning Guo would no longer have the surname Ning by now. It's not that Prince Jing didn't want to, it's just that
No, even though the late emperor only raised and taught him for only two or three years, he always felt that the late emperor was very kind to him and did not want to embarrass his father.
Such a person, no matter how cold his face, still has a warm side in his heart.
However, now, he has no choice but to be forced to become an enemy of his relatives.
Yun Shang smiled bitterly. In fact, she had always had a dream recently, dreaming that Prince Jing was wearing a dragon robe. However, she saw Duke Hua and Xia Houjing while the ministers were bowing to him.
Ever since this dream appeared, she had always thought about what she would do if Prince Jing returned to Xia Kingdom one day.
Emperor Ning was silent for a while, then said, "Now I only have one son, Chen Xi, and he is the son of Shujin. If nothing else happens, the throne will be his sooner or later. However, I am no longer young, and I don't know."
When will the end come? If I die, will you and Prince Jing fully assist Chen Xi?"
Yun Shang's hand paused slightly, just for a moment. After a long while, he said, "Does the emperor know that the empress has taken control of the harem? She asked Prime Minister Li to replace all the guards in the palace. Prime Minister Li
He also asked her to gather all the concubines into the Jinluan Palace to threaten the father."
Emperor Ning didn't know why she mentioned this matter, but he nodded, "I also know that you have solved everything."
Hearing this, Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled softly, "They say that a married daughter is the daughter of a married woman. It's just that the Queen has been married to her father for more than 20 years, right? But she still only has this feeling in her heart.
She regards herself as the daughter of the Li family, but never regards herself as the royal daughter-in-law. From this, it can be seen that that sentence is wrong. No matter what, I am still the daughter of my mother's concubine and my father's emperor, and Chen Xi's blood sister."
After a pause, Yun Shang continued, "I know that my father has several generals who are good at fighting. I don't know why my father has never used them. However, I know that now Prince Jing
It has been deified, which is not a good thing for my father. If one day Prince Jing cannot go to war, I am afraid that the first thing to fall will be the people's hearts."
Emperor Ning took a deep look at this daughter who had grown up without him. He felt that he could not understand her more and more. He was silent for a moment and then said, "I understand."
Yun Shang smiled and murmured as if talking to himself, "Father, the person that Chang'er values most in the world today is her mother and concubine. Although I can't grow up by her side, my father, I and I
The relationship between mother and concubine is no weaker than that of any mother and daughter. On the contrary, it is precisely because I don’t want what I want, so when I get it, I cherish it even more. Mother and concubine is a good woman, I hope she can live a good life, and I hope that my father will not let her down.
.”
Emperor Ning naturally knew what Yun Shang's words meant. After arriving at Laifeng Palace, he discovered that there were many secret guards around Concubine Jin. He asked people to investigate and found that those people were actually his daughter's people. At that time,
It can be said that he was shocked. When she returned to the palace for so long, he never realized that his daughter had such a strong power secretly. Therefore, he also had some grudge against her. What he was even more worried about was that she would hand over all these powers to her.
To Prince Jing.
What she just said was like a promise. A promise that as long as Concubine Jin lives well, at least she will never become her opponent.
"Of course." Emperor Ning turned his head and looked out the window.
Yun Shang looked over and saw that his mother-in-law seemed to be walking towards the study. After a while, she heard the door ring. Yun Shang walked over and opened the door, and sure enough she saw Jin Fei standing at the door, "You guys
What else are father and daughter talking about? It’s time to have dinner.”
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Shang'er hasn't seen my father for a while, so I wanted to talk to him."
Emperor Ning walked to the door, smiled and patted Yun Shang on the head, "You are already married, and you are still acting like a coquettish girl. How can you look like a princess?"
The three of them walked to the main hall and ate something while chatting and laughing.
Yun Shang took advantage of Emperor Ning to go to the inner hall to watch the morning light, and walked outside the hall, and saw the secret guard already waiting, "Your Majesty was ambushed behind the woods where we met Prime Minister Li and the others, and they fought for a while.
The subordinates saw that the prince had not suffered any loss, so they hurried back to report to the princess. If nothing unexpected happened, the prince should arrive in about four hours. Master, the subordinates saw that Jing Wenxi and Miss Jing seemed to be in trouble.
City, when my subordinates came back, they saw that she was already close to the place where the prince and Prime Minister Li were fighting."
"Ha..." An indistinguishable emotion flashed through Yun Shang's eyes, "She is quite an infatuated person."
"Go down and stop her?" the secret guard asked in a low voice.
Yun Shang waved her hand, "Forget it, why stop her? I just want her to run around and be shot to death by a stray arrow."
Yun Shang waved off the secret guards and walked into the inner hall again. Emperor Ning was feeding Chen Xi medicine, and he looked very skillful. Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Aunt Zheng and said, "When did Chen Xi get her rash?"
Can scabs start to form?"
Aunt Zheng replied, "It will be ready in the next day or so. At that time, I am afraid that I will have to use a softer cloth to tie the little prince's hands to prevent him from being itchy and scratching. If he scratches, he will be scratched in the future.
But it will leave scars."
Yun Shang nodded, "Aunt Zheng, come and tell me what medicinal materials should be avoided when you have acne. I'm going to make some soothing ointment and apply it to Chen Xi. It can relieve the pain and itching."
"Okay." Grandma Zheng responded and followed Yun Shang out of the inner hall.
Emperor Ning's eyes flashed slightly in the palace, he put down the empty bowl, put Chenxi back on the bed, raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Jin, "When did Chang'er regain her medical skills? Why don't I even know about it?"
Concubine Jin lowered her head and helped Chen Xi tuck the quilt, and then she said softly, "A long-term illness requires a cure. Chang'er has never been in good health. When he was recuperating in Ningguo Temple, Abbot Wu Na sent a monk who was good at treating diseases.
Yu Shang'er, I'm afraid I learned it from that person."
Emperor Ning didn't speak anymore, but there was a suspicion in his heart. He sent someone to check and found out that while Yun Shang was recuperating in Ningguo Temple, he spent all day copying scriptures, painting, and calligraphy in the temple. He rarely went out, but he didn't listen.
He said he had too much contact with any monk. But, why, after Yun Shang came back from Ningguo Temple, especially in recent days, he seems to have become a different person. He knows medical skills, has his own power, and even knows how to fight.
idea.
Is this person still his daughter?
Emperor Ning glanced at the woman sitting next to him, but ultimately did not ask.
King Jing arrived at the palace around Mao Shi. When Yun Shang heard the noise outside, he also got up. Emperor Ning and Concubine Jin were already waiting in the palace, so Yun Shang walked to a chair aside and sat down.
, just waited for a long time, but did not see Prince Jing coming.
Yun Shang frowned, and Emperor Ning asked the guards to take a look. Then he heard a voice coming from outside, "The prince asked for a doctor, but the doctor is prescribing medicine for the little prince in the side hospital, so I came to ask for the emperor's instructions."
When Emperor Ning and Yun Shang heard this, they both stood up and said, "What's wrong? But Prince Jing is injured?"
The voice outside immediately became louder, "Reporting to the emperor, it was not the prince who was injured, but Miss Jing. I don't know exactly what happened. I just saw the prince carrying her into the palace, and it seemed that he was blocking the way for him.
Arrow, he's still unconscious."
Emperor Ning frowned when he heard this, but before he could answer, he heard a "bang" sound. Emperor Ning turned his eyes and saw that the cup originally placed on the table next to Yun Shang fell to the ground and shattered.
"Shang'er..." Concubine Jin stared at Yun Shang, with a bit of worry in her eyes. But Yun Shang smiled slightly, with a bit of playfulness in her smile, "Oh, you are really good at planning."
Yun Shang picked up the brocade handkerchief, wiped the tea on her hands, and then said quietly, "Brother Huang, it is enough for me and Aunt Zheng. Since Miss Jing wants a doctor, we will bring all the doctors from the side hospital."
Go over there."
Concubine Jin quickly walked to Yun Shang and sat down, grabbing Yun Shang's hand, "Shang'er, Concubine Mother asked someone to call Prince Jing over."
Yun Shang shook her head, "It's okay, the prince will be here soon."
Sure enough, after a while, a voice was heard greeting Prince Jing, followed by the voice of a guard, "Your Majesty, the little prince has a pox, so he can't go in."
Yun Shang greeted Nanny Zheng to clean up the floor, and then she heard Prince Jing say with a bit of confusion, "I remember that my princess has never had acne, so why can the princess go in, but I can't?"
?”
"Let the prince come in." Concubine Jin sighed and raised her voice.
The door was pushed open, and Yun Shang saw Prince Jing walking towards them wearing a dark green robe. It seemed that his clothes were different from those in the morning, and he must have changed.
Prince Jing walked to the palace and saluted Emperor Ning, then sat down next to Yun Shang. He turned his head and asked softly, "Why did you come in if you have never had acne? I heard the secret guard talk about it before.
I was terrified."
Yun Shang smiled slightly and said, "Huh? Your Majesty has a beautiful woman in your arms. Do you still have the heart to listen to this?"
"Shang'er." Concubine Jin sighed and called softly, with a bit of reproach in her voice.
When Prince Jing heard this, he seemed to be startled, and then he laughed, "Princess, it seems that you have a deep misunderstanding, huh?" The last note rose slightly, giving off a bit of a lingering flavor.
However, he did not continue to explain. He just turned to look at Emperor Ning and said, "Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing only brought about 40,000 people here today. I fought with them and they lost less than 10,000 people.
So I hurriedly withdrew. I suspected that they were just making a feint, and I was afraid that they had another purpose, but I didn’t know what their intention was. But it didn’t matter, the people who controlled us were almost here, and now I just need to call someone
Just stare hard at it."
Emperor Ning nodded, "But don't let them delay. The border gate may not be able to hold on for long. I previously asked Qin Jing, Wang Zhaoxi and others to go to Kangyang for support."
Prince Jing responded, smiled, turned his head and glanced at Yun Shang, "I should have discussed it carefully with Brother Huang, but the princess seems to be having trouble today. Brother Emperor, do you see?"
Yun Shang glared at Prince Jing, stood up and walked towards the side hall and bedroom. The laughter of Emperor Ning and Prince Jing seemed to be heard behind him, and then he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, but he was not too hasty.
.
Yun Shang walked back to the side hall and was about to close the door, but was blocked by Prince Jing, "Oh, I've been tired all day long, and the princess won't let me rest? She's really cruel."
Yun Shang sneered, "I remember that you brought someone back just now. She must be very welcoming to you."
Prince Jing looked at Yun Shang with a deep look, which made Yun Shang feel a little annoyed. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Prince Jing chuckle, "I see how Chang'er is doing now."
The reaction is, rather, jealous?"
Yun Shang's eyes widened with a bit of anger, but his hands relaxed slightly. Prince Jing took advantage of this opportunity to squeeze in, put his arms around Yun Shang's shoulders and said, "I don't know who told you this."
, I was the one who brought Miss Jing’s body back. I clearly asked a guard to bring it back. If you don’t believe it, just ask the servants in the palace tomorrow and you will know.”
"Oh? Then I heard that Miss Jing was hit by an arrow to save the prince? If Miss Jing asked the prince to pledge his life to repay her for saving her life, would this princess have one more sister?
"Yun Shang ignored it, turned around and walked towards the inner hall.
Prince Jing followed behind him, with a hint of helplessness in his words, "How do I know where she ran out from? Even without her, I wouldn't have been hit by an arrow. It's just her own cleverness. When will you have another sister?"
?Why didn’t I know? Could it be that Concubine Jin is pregnant again?”
Yun Shang discovered for the first time that Prince Jing could be so helpless, and felt a little funny in her heart. When she heard the guard say that, she had already guessed that it was Jing Wenxi's method, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.
She was so happy. However, when she heard Prince Jing ask if she was jealous, she felt a little panicked. Yun Shang frowned. Could it be that she was really jealous?
Prince Jing followed Yun Chang into the inner hall, then walked to the bed and lay down, yawned, closed his eyes and said, "Sang'er can rest assured, no matter what Jing Wenxi's nap is."
I will never let her go with her idea, and I have no intention of wanting another woman in this life."
Yun Shang was slightly startled, but saw that he seemed very tired, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep in the blink of an eye.
Yun Shang smiled bitterly, "Don't you plan to marry another woman? It's just that life is so long, and no one can say clearly about many things. As for today, I'm afraid that Prince Jing is just wishful thinking, and this matter can be easily solved.
.Now it's just that Jing Wenxi doesn't know and is afraid that when she wakes up, he will make a fuss about this matter.
It was her carelessness. She never thought that Jing Wenxi could successfully find Prince Jing in such a chaotic situation, and also blocked an arrow for Prince Jing by coincidence.
From this point of view, the woman who seemed to have no scheming was actually more scheming than Yun Shang thought, and she was a big trouble.
Yun Shang sighed, but heard the person on the bed murmuring vaguely, "It's late at night, Shang'er, come and have a rest."
Yun Shang stood up and realized that she had not expected that Prince Jing would lie down directly on the bed, so the dormitory did not collapse. But now, the bed was already occupied by Prince Jing, how could she sleep? Could it be that this
Is it time to ask Aunt Zheng to find a soft bed? If there was such a commotion today, if I did this, I'm afraid the mother-in-law would have to have a good heart-to-heart talk with her tomorrow.
Yun Shang sighed softly again, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Prince Jing lying in his clothes without even taking off his shoes and socks. Although it was already summer, it was still a bit cool in the middle of the night, lying like this.
, and not afraid of getting sick.
Yun Shang walked to the bed, helped Prince Jing take off his shoes and socks, and pulled the quilt to cover Prince Jing. But just after covering him with the quilt, Prince Jing grabbed his hand before he could take it back. Prince Jing gently
As soon as he pulled, Yun Chang became unsteady and fell on King Jing. King Jing turned over, placed Yun Chang on his inside, put his hand on Yun Chang's waist, and tightly bound her to him.
in the arms.
Yun Shang frowned, "You asked me to take off my shoes."
Prince Jing did not let go of his hand, he just sat up, helped Yun Shang take off her shoes, threw them away, and then quickly lay down again.
Yun Shang was held tightly by him. Even though she was very reluctant in her heart, she had no choice but to let him hold her. Just now she saw that there was a lot of fatigue on his face.
After a while, King Jing seemed to have fallen asleep. Yun Shang was not very sleepy because he had slept well before, and now after such a fuss, he lay down with his eyes open for a while, but fell asleep in a daze.
Already.
When she woke up, she turned around and saw Prince Jing lying with his eyes open. Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, then her memory slowly came back, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?"
Prince Jing replied softly, "It's three quarters past noon."
Yun Shang was stunned, "It's already so late?" She then sat up and said, "Why don't you get up even though you're awake? Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring food over to you."
Prince Jing smiled and said, "Looking at you sleeping deeply next to me, I was afraid that I would disturb you when I woke up, so I didn't bother to get up."
Yun Shang glared at him, stood up, opened the door and asked someone to bring hot water, then sat in front of the dressing mirror and started combing her hair. She made a bun casually, then walked into the clean room, changed her clothes and came out.
It has been sent over.
Yun Shang asked Prince Jing to wash up and came out. Prince Jing looked left and right and frowned, "No one is waiting? I don't know how to tie my hair, so I bother the princess."
Yun Shang glared at him, picked up the comb, and tied his hair.
His hair was a little difficult to tie up. While he was struggling with his hair, he heard the voice of a guard outside the palace, "Miss Jing is awake, crying and clamoring to see the prince. She doesn't believe it."
The prince is fine, the servants tried to persuade him for a long time but were indifferent..." (To be continued)
