Chapter 384 True and False Mixture
Prince Yu was startled, completely stunned. He frowned and his eyes were filled with hostility, but he still put his hand down abruptly.
Princess Pingling is the youngest daughter of the King of the Southern Kingdom, and her biological mother is the royal concubine of the Southern Kingdom. Originally, when she came here, Princess Pingling did not intend to marry in the State of Chu, but after seeing the change of dynasties in the State of Chu, she changed her mind.
Xiao Jin is young, promising, capable and ambitious, and such a person is worthy of her.
But Su Ying was a trouble. She thought Su Ying was just a fool who only knew how to wield a gun and a sword. As long as she used a little trick, she would definitely be able to gain her trust, so she staged all those dramas.
When Su Ying handed her the jade token, she felt that she could succeed. However, she did not expect that Su Ying would play a trick on her and give her a eunuch's jade token, causing her to become the third prince's fiancée.
Thinking of the Third Prince, Princess Pingling made her even angrier. How could a green boy, whose mother's family was not strong enough, be worthy of her!
"So what do you say we should do now? You have already received the imperial decree granting the marriage, so you have no choice but to marry."
Princess Pingling suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of murderous intent, "How can I, a princess of a country, marry a dead person?"
Prince Yu was startled, then immediately understood.
Princess Pingling said fiercely: "Does the State of Chu dare to let me be a widow to a dead man?"
"You're crazy. This is the Kingdom of Chu. Do you think you can get to the palace and kill someone without anyone noticing?"
Princess Pingling sneered, "How difficult is this?"
On the other hand, the imperial decree granting marriage was also delivered to the third prince.
The Third Prince was still completely confused when he saw the imperial edict. He had heard Concubine De talk about his marriage before, but he never expected that one day he would be asked to marry a princess from an enemy country!
He is not very old, but he understands that if the Southern Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom fight again, he will be in trouble both inside and outside!
"I, I'm still young. How old is that princess from the Southern Kingdom? I won't marry her."
The corners of Zhang Shuming's lips sank slightly, "Your Highness should not be willful. This is a marriage granted by the Emperor. If Your Highness does not marry, are you disobeying the Emperor's order?"
The Third Prince's eyes were wandering. No matter how reckless he was, he knew what it meant to disobey the order. "I, I want to see my mother, I want to see my mother!"
The two were separated the next day after they were confined to their homes following a scene at the funeral hall.
When Concubine De learned that her son was married to Princess Pingling, she was so anxious that she almost jumped up.
She had already thought about who her son would marry in the future. Although it had not been decided yet, the woman must not be a princess from an enemy country!
"Open the door, open the door for me, I want to go out!" Defei remembers banging on the palace door and shouting, but the guards guarding outside the door remained indifferent.
When Defei saw that the other party did not react, her face changed and she covered her stomach in pain and cried out in pain.
Although the imperial guards outside the door knew that Concubine De might be pretending, they still opened the palace door just in case.
"My stomach hurts so much, why are you still standing there? Go ask the imperial physician to come and see me." Defei held onto her stomach and leaned on the table, looking extremely painful, and it looked like that was the case.
The imperial guards took a look and decided to go find the imperial physician.
At the same time, the matter was reported to Su Ying.
Su Ying was not surprised at all. The relationship between the Southern Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom was very delicate. It would not be good for him to marry a princess from an enemy country. Of course, they were unwilling to do so. "Send the imperial physician over and tell her that if she is seriously ill, I will quickly arrange the marriage between the Third Prince and Princess Pingling, so that the Third Prince will not have to mourn for her and delay the princess."
Mother Zhao secretly gave Su Ying a thumbs up. Su Ying directly grabbed Concubine De's neck to prevent her from pretending to be dead.
Concubine De was lying on the bed, groaning non-stop, just waiting to act pitifully to get Xiao Jin to agree to let the Third Prince come and take care of her.
After examining her, the imperial physician said that Concubine De was just angry and the problem was not serious. He told her to rest well and not to worry too much, lest the excessive internal heat cause a serious illness.
"I don't have anyone to serve me. Go and tell the emperor that I need the third prince to come and take care of me."
The eunuch who delivered the message spoke up as soon as he heard this, "Your Majesty is in good health and will be well soon. The Queen said that if you really think you are dying, she will arrange for the marriage of the Third Prince and Princess Pingling as soon as possible to avoid any complications."
When Concubine De heard this, she jumped out of bed. She was so angry that she wanted to die!
But she also knew clearly that if she continued to make such a fuss, she might not just be confined to her house!
"I am very happy that the Third Prince can marry Princess Pingling, but the Third Prince is still young and doesn't understand many things. I just want to call him over and give him some instructions."
"Don't worry, madam. It won't be too late to teach the Third Prince after you recover."
Concubine De felt a lump in her chest that could neither go up nor down. The lump went straight to her head and she almost fainted.
When Concubine De woke up again, it was already dark outside. She propped herself up and called her confidants in.
"What do you want, madam?"
Defei gritted her teeth and said, "Go, send a letter to father and tell him that even if he wants to marry, it must not be the principal wife!" Her son's principal wife must be from a famous and prominent family in the capital!
"Don't worry, madam. I'll go right away."
…
Imperial study.
Xiao Jin was looking through the memorials submitted today.
After a moment, Zhang Shuming pushed open the palace door and walked in, saying, "Your Majesty, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards wants to see you."
Xiao Jin didn't even raise his head. "Let him in."
A moment later, Jiang Yang entered the inner hall. He is now the deputy commander of the imperial guards.
"Your Majesty, I have pried open the mouth of the man in black. He said that he was bribed by Concubine De to create chaos and panic in the mourning hall, and then slander Your Majesty."
Xiao Jin paused and raised his head, "Do you believe it?"
Jiang Yang licked his lips and said, "I don't believe it, but I think this statement must be a mixture of truth and falsehood."
Xiao Jin put down the memorial in his hand and said, "The only person who can command the late emperor's secret guards is someone who knows of their existence."
Emperor Kangze was a suspicious and cautious person. How could he let Concubine De, who was not a favored concubine in the harem, know such a secret?
"Go ask him where he hid when he came to see the late emperor before."
It is impossible for a person to move around in a palace with many eyes and ears, without anyone knowing. If he wants to remain unknown, there must be some unknown passage.
Jiang Yang came back to his senses and said, "Yes, I will go right away."
"etc."
"What else does the emperor want?"
"Send more people to watch over the palace."
Jiang Yang frowned, "Your Majesty, do you think the Southerners will make unusual moves?"
Xiao Jin said: "The Southern Kingdom is ambitious, so it is better to be cautious."
"Then I will send another team of soldiers to guard there."
"kindness."
Today a reader left a message saying that the heroine is not qualified to be the queen, that she is nothing without scheming and means. I was very upset to see such a message. The character of the heroine in this book is both within the routine and outside the routine. If you like it, you can like it, and if you don’t like it, just turn it off. If you want to read some sophisticated schemes, palace fights, or house fights, you’d better leave. Please stop leaving insulting messages. Writing a book is not easy, so please don’t use unpleasant words to affect the author’s mood.
