Chapter 555: The Concubine was robbed?
On the night when the envoys arrived in Kyoto, the emperor held a banquet in the palace to show the southern merchants' welcome and friendship to foreign countries.
The various departments in the palace are adept at handling this kind of thing and there won't be any mistakes.
However, this year Princess Dongli will be on the mission in person, so the scene should be more grand...
But these are not within the scope of the little girl's concern~
A storm was about to come, so she covered her head with the quilt and slept soundly.
In her words... only if you get enough sleep can you have the energy to fight these monsters!
At the hour of You, inside Chengfu Hall.
Jiang An supported his chin with his hand, tapping his fingertips on the table, and yawning one after another. It was obvious that he had not woken up yet.
She looked towards the door from time to time, not knowing who she was waiting for...
"Who are you looking at?"
Jiang Ling's dog came closer and whispered this.
The little girl was startled by him and slapped him on the back of the head, "You walk without making any sound?"
"oops!"
Jiang Ling was not convinced, "Why don't you say that you took it too seriously?"
He called the little girl several times!
So, who is she looking at?
Jiang An ignored him.
She is waiting for Princess Dongli and that impostor!
As the real owner, she is of course looking forward to what the fake one looks like~
Soon, as she expected, the envoys from Dongli arrived...
The young man following beside the eldest princess, who was dressed in a bright red palace dress, was respectful.
He lowered his head halfway, revealing half of his white and fragile neck...
The young man supported the eldest princess, his brows slightly frowned, as if he was worried that the person next to him would step on the hem of her skirt and fall, and he kept whispering something to the princess.
Princess Dongli’s acting skills are also superb, and her eyes are so loving as if she is looking at her own child.
Although there have always been rumors, seeing it with your own eyes is different after all...
There was a lot of discussion in the hall, all about her relationship with this young man.
"Who is this person?" Jiang Ling looked gossipy.
Seeing how close he and the princess were, it was different from a relationship between a man and a woman. It was more like...
The way his mother looked at him! ?
"I haven't heard that the princess got married or had children?"
Everyone knows that Princess Nan Shang is so beautiful that even the word "captivating beauty" is not enough to describe it!
At this moment, a young man shattered gently.
Jiang An looked at him speechlessly, as well as the small dark cloud above his head, "You are..."
The taste is really strong!!
"You don't understand!" Jiang Ling cried and bit her handkerchief.
Divine gold!
The little girl rolled her eyes and didn't look at him again.
The main reason is that I am afraid of being infected with the divine gold.
The Dongli people were seated below Jiang An, and Princess Dongli never even glanced at the little girl from beginning to end.
It’s like... they really don’t know each other.
Wow, it looks pretty good~
Jiang An also withdrew his gaze and continued to chat with Jiang Ling. Soon Cui Huaixu, Song Shen... Li Xingsang, who was among the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and Qi Shanyuan, who was pushed to poison the envoys to death with his mouth, all gathered together.
"younger sister!"
The little girl scratched her ear, feeling a little puzzled.
Why did she seem to hear her brother calling her?
At this time, Huo Changming should be in the camp west of the city.
"Sister..." Huo Changming, who was dressed in military uniform in the corner, continued to attack with breath sound.
"elder brother?!"
It's not an illusion!
The little girl ran over and took the pastries on her table and stuffed them into her brother's arms.
Huo Changming held a whole plate of cakes and grinned.
Sister is still the best!!
"Brother, why did you come to the palace?"
"Today's palace banquet is very important. Akabane has to guard the imperial city and be in charge of the palace banquet. He is too busy..."
"The general transferred some men from the west camp of the city."
All the people who came were trusted members of the army who had been in the army for many years, but why did they ask him, a new general, to come?
Huo Changming remembered the important matter and quickly put away his playful smile, "The general asked me to report the news!"
He leaned in close to the little girl and whispered in her ear, "The general said that the reason why Akabane in the palace is short of manpower is because the queen mother transferred people out of the city!"
Out of town?
Jiang An's eyes darkened, "Can you see which direction it went?"
"The city exited from the west gate and headed south..."
The general was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he didn't dare to get too close.
South…
As she was thinking, more and more people came into the hall.
Huo Changming didn't want to stay for long, so he left stealthily.
"what happened?"
Jiang An sat back in his seat, and only Qi Shanyuan and Li Xingsang were left.
Before the little girl could reply to Yuanyuan, she called Zhengyan over and asked, "How many of our people are still in Huguo Temple?"
Zheng Yan: "Before we returned, the prince instructed that we don't need to continue guarding the Huguo Temple. Let Tai... let her fend for herself there."
"So as soon as we arrived in Kyoto, all our people were evacuated."
"Now only the red feather of the concubine's original group remains in the Huguo Temple."
Is it such a coincidence?
What a coincidence that the Queen Mother had this idea; what a coincidence that her father left the Queen Mother an opportunity to take advantage of?
Jiang An naturally didn't believe it.
She frowned, looking a little unhappy.
Part of the reason was because her father had a plan and didn't even discuss it with her!
The other half is worried that her father will be stigmatized and not deserved…
If the Concubine was not worried that the palace and her father would be stigmatized as a matricide, there is no way the Concubine would have survived in her hands for so long!
You know, she has never been a soft-hearted person!
Coming back to her senses, the little girl met two pairs of worried eyes.
The little girl smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, it's not a big deal~"
She muttered softly, "The calculations of the two old guys are not comparable to those of us little brats!"
Hearing this, Qi Shanyuan just laughed, "The prince is not even forty years old now. If he knew that An An called him an old man behind his back, he would probably be sad."
The little girl pouted, "That's right."
One by one, they are so smart and clever...
Even monkeys are not as smart as them!
I will go back and write a letter tonight to curse people!!
The little person in her heart was so angry that she jumped up and down...
As they were talking, Princess Nanshang, who was in the first position, reminded them, "Your Majesty is here."
The two young men bowed and thanked the princess for her kind reminder, then returned to their seats.
The little girl was left with a listless look again...
Princess Nanshang shook her head when she saw this.
With the arrival of the emperor, the banquet officially began. Singers danced in the center of the hall and musicians played music.
Jiang An just felt... even more sleepy!
After a song and dance, someone from the envoy group stood up to toast His Majesty. Hearing the arrogant tone, Jiang An glanced at them.
Oh, it's the old man in Cang's envoy group~
His words were not very respectful, but as the emperor, it was not right for His Majesty to have a dark face because of a single sentence...
As for the officials of Southern Business, they are all ready to go!
I'm coming!
On weekdays, these troublemakers always complain about everything in the morning court. Let them try it today!
As expected, the first ones to bear the brunt were Jiang Ling and Cui Huaixu~
