Chapter 164 A Frightened Bird
emperor:……
He really wanted to say yes!
"Since you've said that, if I don't take a look, wouldn't it be embarrassing for you? So I'll just take a look reluctantly."
Su Yunyao sat back in her seat.
Wu Jixiang hurriedly presented the portrait of the third prince of Dong Liao to Su Yunyao.
"Princess, I have to say that the Third Prince of Dong Liao has eyes as bright as stars and a face as beautiful as jade."
Su Yunyao looked up doubtfully at the portrait in his hand.
The man in the portrait is wearing a white robe and standing in a bamboo forest. He is indeed handsome and well-mannered.
Just the next second.
She frowned.
The man in the portrait, in terms of facial features and body shape, is surprisingly 70% similar to Xu Mubai.
Although it is not surprising that many people in the world look alike.
But this third prince of Dong Liao.
Even though he was not a legitimate prince, he still had a noble status in Dong Liao.
He was actually willing to become her servant, even after he knew that she had two princes-in-law.
Isn't this clearly an ulterior motive?
Su Yunyao really couldn't think of any other reason.
Even if he wanted to be a pure love warrior, he should at least have met her.
Could it be that based on a portrait, he fell in love with her so much that he wanted her to be his life forever?
Su Yunyao would rather believe that there are ghosts in the sky than believe Dong Liao's broken mouth.
Looking at the expression on her face, which passed like a revolving lantern, the emperor pursed his lips and asked, "What do you think of this person, my sister?"
"Not very good. Although it has some similarities to Xu Mubai, I already have the original. Why would I need a high-visibility version? Who would want a fake when they have the real thing?"
Before Su Yunyao said it, the emperor had not yet realized that this person was very similar to the owner of Jinjinglou.
The emperor knew of this person's existence, but he had only seen him a few times and did not have a deep impression of him.
Hearing her say this, the emperor's eyes instantly darkened.
"Since my sister doesn't like it, let's not talk about it. It's getting late today, so please stay in the palace and return to the Princess's residence tomorrow morning."
This time, Su Yunyao did not refuse and nodded.
After the emperor accompanied her for dinner, he went to the queen's palace to rest.
Su Yunyao ate a little too much, so she took Zhenzhu for a stroll in the palace to help digest the food.
When she came to this world, she was actually not familiar with the palace.
However, the palace was so huge and the walls seemed to be all the same in their winding ways, so I got lost not long after walking.
Pearl didn't know she was lost. After all, this was where she grew up. She simply thought she just wanted to take a walk around here.
Su Yunyao walked further and further away, and just when she was about to turn back, she faintly heard someone talking in the distance.
"What should the Imperial Concubine do? Lin Miaomiao has been arrested for so many days, and the Dali Temple has concluded all the necessary trials. What did she say? How much did she say? There is no news at all."
"What the hell is wrong with this idiot? She actually dared to drug the princess. I took a fancy to her and saved her because I thought she had some friendship with Shen Qiu Nian. Now it seems that she is just a waste."
"Your Highness, please quickly discuss this with the Prime Minister. This Supreme Court Justice is the Princess's man. He's always cold-blooded and ruthless. There's nothing he can't pry open. I'm afraid the longer the night, the more trouble we'll have."
"Now that she's imprisoned in the Dali Temple, what can we do even if we find our father? Can he actually get her out? Since ancient times, no one who has been to the Dali Temple has ever walked out alive. Moreover, this Lin Miaomiao is the daughter of a criminal. For her sake, Chen Qiu Nian knelt for so long at the gate of Xuanzheng Hall, but the Emperor didn't even see him. Don't you think he hasn't asked the Princess for help?"
"What should I do?"
Pearl was shocked.
Although Su Yunyao didn't expect that staying in the palace and getting lost would bring her unexpected gains.
But she really didn't expect that Lin Miaomiao was actually Concubine Shu's person.
Su Yunyao made a "hush" gesture to Zhenzhu and pulled her back a step.
"Your Highness, please don't worry. Today, Jin Manlou received news that the Third Prince of Xijing has reached an agreement with Dongliao. Everything previously agreed upon will remain as is."
"Dong Liao said they'd send the Third Prince to marry the Princess. Is he reliable? We must not mess this up!"
Concubine Shu looked solemn. Ever since she knew that the queen was pregnant, she had been like a frightened bird in the harem all day long.
"Your Highness, don't worry. The man sent to marry the eldest princess is not the Third Prince of Dong Liao, but the Seventh Prince of Dong Liao, Mu Ze. Mu Ze is one of ours."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu was obviously relieved.
"Ever since the Emperor confiscated the property of the Grand Tutor, nothing has gone well for him, especially recently. It's been really bad."
"Your Highness, please rest assured. Although things didn't go smoothly, everything is still moving in the direction we've been striving for. You just need to pay more attention to the Emperor's movements in the palace. The Prime Minister said that there's no need for anyone to worry about other things."
Concubine Shu sneered, "The Emperor hasn't been to my palace for a long time. Now that the Empress is pregnant, the Emperor has really protected her like an iron barrel. Not to mention the Emperor, I've almost forgotten what the Empress looks like."
"Your Highness, it's getting late. You should go back early to avoid attracting attention. I will withdraw first."
Concubine Shu nodded, looked around, and made sure that there was no one around. Then she straightened her clothes and walked out from the darkness.
Wait until her figure completely disappears into the night.
Su Yunyao just walked out from another dark place.
Pearl really broke down.
How come she could hear Concubine Shu's shocking secret as soon as she entered the palace?
She really wanted to go to the temple and find a monk to help her and Concubine Shu read their horoscopes.
I heard it once last time when I took Lu Mingfeng to Linglong Pavilion to meet the princess.
This was heard again while the princess was helping with her digestion.
Pearl felt like she was going to die soon.
If Concubine Shu knew that she had heard every time she did bad things with others behind their backs, she would definitely be silenced!
"Princess, what should I do?"
Su Yunyao looked at her nervous expression and chuckled, "What do you mean? Lost? Of course, we have to find the way back first."
get lost?
Pearl scratched her head in confusion, "Huh?"
"What? Are you lost? Did you hear anything just now?" Su Yunyao asked back.
Pearl was stunned for a second. She nodded first, then quickly shook her head. "To answer your question, Princess, I didn't hear anything."
Su Yunyao: ...
"Let's go back and take a shower."
After returning to Linglong Pavilion, Su Yunyao sent everyone around her out, asking those who needed to boil water to boil water and those who needed to make snacks to make snacks.
Until she was the only one left in the bedroom.
"Xuan Qing..."
