Chapter 148: The Lame Princess vs. the Blind Hostage Prince Consort (25)
Hunting ground outside Beijing.
The periphery was filled with carriages, and inside the field stood tents for dignitaries to rest. From a distance, it looked like a series of rolling hills.
Lingying had just carried Lucha to the wheelchair when a servant in coarse linen clothes hurried over and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, please help me."
The servant raised his head, his chin was covered with a messy beard, his face was sallow, but his almond-shaped eyes were still pretty. It was Chu Jinghong in disguise.
"Jin Shuang was called away by Concubine Lan. I feel uneasy, but I can't enter the female relatives' tents. Your Highness, could you help me check?"
With the idea of protecting the young heroine, Lu Cha immediately agreed, and did not forget to raise his hand to call a palace maid to send Xun Ji to the princess's tent to rest first.
The little villains can’t be ignored either!
-
The tent surrounding the hunting ground.
Luo Zelan, who was sitting on the chair, glanced at the palace maid.
The latter understood and handed a cup of steaming hot tea to Luo Jinshuang who was standing there:
"This is a reward from the Queen."
Luo Zelan looked vicious: "Good tea, you have to drink it while it's hot. Sister must drink it all in one breath."
She had finally climbed to a high position, how could she not teach this bitch a lesson!
She still remembers that slap!
Knowing that Luo Zelan was going to burn him, Luo Jinshuang clenched his fists with a cold face. Before he could think of a countermeasure, he heard a soft voice:
"Have my people come to Concubine Lan's place?"
"I greet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Luo Zelan hurriedly stood up and saluted, signaling the maid serving tea to leave. He seemed like a different person, holding Luo Jinshuang affectionately with a gentle smile:
"I haven't seen my sister for a long time. I missed her, so I asked someone to call her over to chat."
Luo Jinshuang was already accustomed to her two-faced look. She pulled out her grabbed arm and stood behind Lu Cha.
Luo Zelan couldn't help but grit his teeth.
You ungrateful little bitch!
No wonder they can get along with Yuanlu Tea! They are all damn bastards!
Luo Zelan endured the fire, took out a small and exquisite heater, and put it in Lu Cha's hands:
"Your Highness, it's cold in the hunting grounds today. I specially prepared a heater to prevent your hands from getting cold."
"?"
Lu Cha looked at Luo Zelan suspiciously, and took out a lot of jewelry and food.
Although his eyes were full of hatred, his face was gentle as water.
What? Are you possessed?
"The Emperor is here—" As the eunuchs' loud singing rang out outside, Yuan Ting, dressed in military uniform, strode into the tent.
He looked at Lu Cha in the wheelchair with a smile, a hint of uneasiness flashing across his eyes:
"I didn't see Anping at the hunting grounds. It turns out he was hiding with Concubine Lan."
"Are you satisfied with the beauty I sent to your house a few days ago?"
He couldn't get in touch with the three spies, so he sent a message to Lingying, but she said she didn't know anything. The shadow guards he sent to the Princess's Mansion to investigate also never returned.
He was obviously killed by Yuanlucha's people.
Could it be that she had hidden the beauties she had sent him? Was she planning to find the right moment to expose his conspiracy?
Yuan Ting thought a little irritably.
"You didn't serve me well, so I killed you." Lu Cha silently took the blame that should have belonged to Xun Ji, with a half-smile:
"Royal brother, you don't need to send me beauties anymore. You have too few pleasures, and the ones you trained are meaningless."
"Especially now that the dragon's health is not good, we must stay away from this kind of things."
At this point, Lu Cha blinked curiously and spoke boldly:
"I heard that the emperor has summoned Concubine Lan to his bed for several days in a row. Is this a test?"
In order to maintain the image of being diligent and not indulging in wine and women, Yuan Ting seldom turns over the cards of the concubines in the harem. However, he frequently visits Luo Zelan during this period, and is not afraid of being criticized at all. It is hard not to be suspicious!
"Asshole!" Yuan Ting roared angrily, "Get out of here!"
If he was capable, why would he order people to spread the news of Concubine Lan's favor?
Seeing Yuan Ting's painful expression, Lu Cha suddenly realized and leisurely took Luo Jinshuang away.
Alas~ The male lead is not good enough~
"Your Majesty, the imperial physician said that you should not get angry now." Luo Zelan considerately poured a cup of tea for Yuan Ting, but was suddenly knocked to the ground.
"Do I need your advice?"
Luo Zelan knelt down in fear: "Yes, it was my fault."
Yuan Ting had a gloomy face and cold eyes.
Although King Seogyeong's army was strong and powerful, and his strength was comparable to that of Yuanchang, King Seogyeong was warlike, and all his generals were experienced and brave in battle.
Recently, they even sent troops to attack Beilin.
Now the Crown Prince of Xiying has suddenly come to visit as a guest, which may be a test before the war.
He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep or eat because he didn't have the military token in his hand.
Looking at Luo Zelan who lowered his brows and looked compliant, Yuan Ting said in a cold voice: "How is your plan going?"
"Your Majesty, everything is settled." Luo Zelan raised his head confidently:
"The princess loves and dotes on Xun Ji so much, she will definitely listen to me when the time comes."
She originally wanted to become friends with Yuan Lucha and then take action, but there was an obstructive Luo Jinshuang in the middle.
Yuan Lucha's temper was unpredictable, and when she was unhappy, she would whip people. She might as well attack that cowardly blind prince consort! She could control his sweetheart!
Yuan Ting didn't quite believe that Yuan Lucha would hand over the military command for Xun Ji.
But there is no good way now, so I can only let Luo Zelan give it a try:
"If you haven't received the military token before Prince Seokyeong leaves, then go and keep Concubine Hui company."
Luo Zelan's heart trembled, and he said "yes" obediently.
