Yun Shang thought that although Xia Houyan did not enter the palace today, Xia Huanyu's words had reached his ears word for word. As the legitimate prince of the Xia Kingdom, it was normal for him to be angry.
Yun Shang has always known Xia Houyan. He has a lot of force and is good at leading troops. However, his only weakness is that he is too reckless. When he was at the border before, he had Liu Yinfeng as a think tank to make up for his shortcomings.
, but now Liu Yinfeng is attending a banquet in the palace, and Xia Houyan is afraid that as soon as he hears the news, he will bring his people over in a hurry.
No wonder Xia Huanyu wanted to hand over the throne of Xia Kingdom to Prince Jing.
"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Yun Shang looked at Xia Houyan with a smile.
Xia Houyan was also startled when he saw Yun Shang, and after a while he said, "Are you the young master who lived in the courtyard of Military Master Liu when we were outside Kangyang City?"
Yun Shang chuckled, the prince's eyesight was slightly better than Liu Yinfeng's.
"Who are you? Why are you on Prince Jing's carriage? And why do you know my identity?" Seeing that Yun Shang did not deny it, Xia Houyan frowned again and looked at Yun Shang with an unhappy expression.
Yun Shang just looked at him with a smile and did not speak.
Fortunately, Xia Houyan was just a little reckless, not stupid. Seeing that Yun Shang was dressed as a married woman, but she was riding in the same car with Prince Jing, naturally it could only be one person, "Princess Jing."
Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Xia Houyan, her mouth still slightly raised, "His Royal Highness intercepted the carriage of Prince Jing's Mansion, and then brought the prince and the princess here. I don't know what happened?"
Only then did Xia Houyan remember the purpose of his trip. He raised his eyes and looked at the man who had been sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed. He looked a little unhappy and sneered, "Since you have disappeared for more than 20 years, what's the point?"
Why do you suddenly appear? Do you still want to compete with me for the position of prince? My mother has told me since I was a child that if someone prevents me from ascending to the throne of God, no matter who it is, I must get rid of him."
Prince Jing frowned and suddenly closed the door of the carriage. Only a few soft noises were heard, and Xia Houyan's somewhat surprised voice came from outside, "Who are you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of fighting came from outside the carriage. Yun Shang was silent for a moment, and glanced at the man who was leaning against the wall of the carriage with his eyes closed, but finally did not speak.
After a while, the sound of the fighting gradually became quieter until it disappeared, and then a respectful voice came from outside, "Master, everything has been dealt with. How should the Crown Prince of Xia be dealt with? I hope you can tell me, Master."
Except for that voice with a bit of surprise, Yun Shang never heard Xia Houyan's voice from the beginning to the end. From what the secret guard meant, Xia Houyan seemed to have been subdued. Yun Shang was a little surprised, Xia Houyan's martial arts should be
It's pretty good, but how could he be caught so easily?
Prince Jing opened his eyes and snorted coldly, "I am still Prince Jing of Ning State. How should I deal with someone who assassinates me in the imperial city?"
The voice outside was still without any ripples, "You should be taken to the prison of Dali Temple."
Prince Jing nodded, "Let's escort them over there, and then send someone to the palace to deliver a message to the emperor, saying that I was assassinated on the way back and was injured. See if the banquet in the palace has dispersed. If so, we will continue
Go to the inn and report to Emperor Xia."
The sound of a secret guard's reply came from outside. Prince Jing leaned back against the wall of the carriage again, closed his eyes and fell asleep. He seemed to be a little uncomfortable in his sleep, so he moved his head again and leaned on Yun Shang's shoulder.
Yun Shang sighed, stretched out her hand to hold Prince Jing's shoulders, and made him lean more comfortably. Then she whispered to the secret guards outside to go back to the house, and then the carriage started to rumble.
When they returned to Prince Jing's Mansion, it was almost midnight. Yun Shang ordered Qianyin to prepare hot water for washing. As soon as Prince Jing finished washing, he also removed his bun and took off his outer clothes. When he walked into the clean room, he heard
The butler's voice rang outside, "Your Majesty, the palace has sent an imperial doctor to come. He said that he heard that the prince met an assassin and was injured, so he sent an imperial doctor to treat the prince."
Yun Shang was taking green salt and brushing her teeth, but she couldn't respond. Then she heard Prince Jing say, "When you go back, say that I have already seen a doctor and prescribed medicine, and now I have rested."
The butler responded and stepped back, but not long after, he walked in again, "Your Majesty, His Majesty Xia Guo has come in person. He is waiting in the front hall at the moment."
"Then let him wait." Prince Jing's cold voice came.
Yun Shang had already washed up and walked out of the clean room. He saw that he had not left yet, looking a little embarrassed. Although he was in the Ning Kingdom, he was still the king of a country. It was really not good for the prince to offend him like this. Seeing Yun Shang
When he came out, he quickly looked at Yun Shang and said, "Princess, His Majesty Xia Guo has come to visit the prince. He is waiting in the front hall now."
Yun Shang smiled, nodded, and called Qian Yin, "Give me a simple bun, and don't use any of those hair accessories."
Qianyin responded and walked over with a comb.
When Prince Jing saw this, he frowned and said, "What are you doing? He can just wait if he wants to. You've already washed yourself, why are you fussing around?"
"The visitor is a visitor. I'm going to take a look. You'll be here soon. I see you look a little tired, so I'll rest first. You've already reported everything to my father. You were injured in an assassination. Since you were injured,
The injury should naturally be recuperated in bed." Yun Shang raised his eyes and glanced at Prince Jing, chuckled, and ordered the maid next to him to get the clothes.
The clothes were a plain dress with a pink cloak casually covered on the outside. Yun Shang walked out and ordered the butler as she walked, "The prince didn't eat much at the banquet. Go prepare some porridge.
Prepare some side dishes, I will eat some with the prince when I come back."
Yun Shang originally thought that it would be just right to go to bed when she came back. She shouldn't eat too much at night, but she was afraid that she would be a little hungry if she had to go to see guests. She knew that the man was waiting in the front hall, and she was afraid that Prince Jing would come back no matter what.
He couldn't sleep well, so he simply asked the housekeeper to prepare a midnight snack.
When they arrived at the front hall, they saw the man wearing a purple robe, standing with his back to Yun Shang. He raised his head and looked at the words hanging in the front hall. They were the words she asked her to re-decorate the palace after she married her.
The housekeeper selected one of the calligraphy and paintings written by King Jing. The writing was sharp, but the words "Tolerance means greatness" were written on it. When Yun Shang was choosing, she felt that the meaning of the writing and the words were completely at two extremes.
, it’s very interesting, so I chose this one.
As if he heard the sound of Yun Shang walking in, the man turned around, glanced at Yun Shang lightly, paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "Where is he?"
He didn't mention anyone by name, but Yun Shang knew exactly who he was talking about.
With a faint smile on her face, Yun Shang said softly, "I was stabbed on the way back home just now. The prince was slightly injured. He just applied medicine and has rested."
Xia Huanyu looked blank and was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, turned around and sat down on the chair.
Yun Shang was a little strange. Since he came here after hearing the news of King Jing's assassination, he was naturally concerned about King Jing. But why was he so silent when he heard Yun Shang said that King Jing was injured? He didn't even ask how the King Jing was injured.
.
Yun Shang ordered the maid to serve tea, and then said softly, "Your Majesty, please have tea."
Xia Huanyu nodded, picked up the tea cup, looked at Yun Shang for a long time, and then said, "I have heard about your affairs in Kangyang City and Jingyang City. You are somewhat similar to your mother and concubine. She is also a heroine.
A woman with a shaved head has also made military exploits, but her temper is worse than yours. She is usually very domineering even when she is not on the battlefield, and she cannot be as gentle and elegant as you."
Yun Shang was stunned, and after thinking for a long time, she remembered that Xia Huanyu was probably talking about Prince Jing's biological mother, Xia Guoxian's Queen Hua Ling.
"Chang'er has heard people talk about Queen Hua. I heard she is a very remarkable woman. Chang'er does not dare to compare with Queen Hua. As my father said, Chang'er is just used to being willful. She always feels that the battlefield is also the same.
It's nothing serious, so I went to make such a fool of myself, but it made His Majesty laugh." Yun Shang knew the gentleness, and her eyes fell gently on the white porcelain cup in her hand.
Xia Huanyu was silent for a moment and then said, "He seems a little indifferent. You are wronged by being with him."
Grieved? Yun Shang was stunned, thinking that he would also accuse her like Duke Hua, saying something that she was not worthy of Prince Jing, but she didn't expect that Xia Huanyu actually said that she was grievance...
Yun Shang chuckled, "If two people really like each other, there's no point in being aggrieved."
Xia Huanyu didn't want Yun Shang to say such words, so he looked at Yun Shang again and fell silent.
No one spoke, and no one knew how long it had passed before Yun Shang saw the housekeeper walking over in a hurry. He saluted Xia Huanyu and then said to Yun Shang respectfully, "Princess, the prince said that his wound is a little painful.
Let you go back and apply medicine on him."
Yun Shang was stunned and silent for a moment, and then heard Xia Huanyu say, "Since he is looking for you, you should go back first, and I will leave first." After saying that, before Yun Shang could respond, he had already stood up.
He came and left first.
Yun Shang was stunned again. Why did Xia Huanyu come here today? If he said it was to visit Prince Jing, he never even asked how he was injured. If he said he came to intercede with Xia Houyan, he didn't even ask.
And Xia Houyan was never mentioned from beginning to end.
I secretly guessed in my heart before I got up and walked towards the bedroom.
Qianyin kept chirping all the way, "So that's the Emperor of Xia Kingdom. The scars on his face are a bit scary. Why is the boss..." He stopped here, as if he was afraid of something, so he didn't say anything more.
Go down.
After a pause, he continued, "My servant has heard someone mention the late empress of the Emperor of Xia Kingdom. I heard that she was indeed a general woman. She was very capable in leading troops and fighting. There are very few women who like to fight."
Qianyin seemed to be mumbling to herself, but the sound fell into Yun Shang's heart like a thunder, suddenly exploding deep in her heart.
She knows who the woman looks like in the painting Xia Huanyu brought... (To be continued)
