Chapter 69 Crisis, Chaos(2P(1/2)
It is almost noon.
The table in Anping Hou Mansion finally fell down, with noisy laughter and delicious wine, fragrant in the stomach.
If you count roughly, you will probably have dozens of tables.
However, the eldest daughter of Anping Hou who was a concubine in the palace did not come, but only sent someone a set of particularly beautiful clothes to Miss Ninth An Shangyu.
Isn't it that the eldest daughter who entered the palace as a concubine is highly favored and she has to go back to her parents' home often. Today, she doesn't come to her biological sister's birthday?
Seeing that the rest of the people had no questions about this, Xie Lingqin did not think about it, and immediately stopped thinking about it.
Soon, Zihe found out that Li Junru had already caught it, but it was for Gu Quanzi that neither Liu Yunzhou had mentioned the matter.
"Hey, did the prince come before? I was not here just now, and I didn't see the prince's face." At this time, the ladies at the next table began to whisper.
"Can't you actually like the prince..."
"Don't joke about me, who doesn't want to take a look at people like the prince?"
"I think the prince is so strong. Although he is unparalleled, he is even better than the wise king, but... it is too dangerous. Last time I went to the palace with my father, I accidentally saw the prince. It was so scary."
Yes, it's quite scary.
Xie Lingqin drank a sip of tea and agreed.
Moreover, he was extremely proud, and there was a little bit of a slutty hidden behind the seriousness. "I think these people are clearly loving and hating." An Shangning sat with Xie Lingxin at this time, and obviously heard the words of the next table. He immediately covered his lips with his hands and whispered in Xie Lingqin's ear.
Xie Lingqin looked at her and became a little interested, "How can I see it?"
"I don't think that the prince's seldom is now, and I can see all the women." An Shangning whispered, and as he spoke, his expression was filled with admiration and admiration.
Xie Lingqin didn't catch any cold.
A person like the prince, besides being good-looking and powerful, what can I admire?
Moreover, it seems that he is not favored by the emperor. What political achievements will he have when it comes to the crown prince in the capital?
When it comes to the wise king, he has a good reputation.
There is also the position of the crown prince. Whether it can be maintained is probably a big question.
Thinking of this, the prince is still quite pitiful.
"Miss, Madam, I have something to do to you, let you go." An Shangning looked at Xie Lingqin's unmoved look, as if she wanted to say a few more words. At this time, a little maid came forward. An Shangning stopped talking, greeted Xie Lingqin and then retreated from his seat.
Xie Lingqin then turned her head and looked at Zihe beside her, "What have you heard just now?"
"I heard nothing."
"Yeah, so well-behaved."
Zihe...the corners of his lips were slightly twitching.
Why do I feel so uncomfortable whenever I hear the lady speak so gently?
It's like there's something conspiracy.
Xie Lingqin ignored Zihe’s inner thoughts at this time and drank tea quietly.
She didn't want to be too tired or annoyed, so she found a quieter seat. The people sitting around the table were all under her family background. Even if the ladies knew her, they would definitely not say that she was bad.
After all, no matter what, she is the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion.
"May I ask, are you the eldest lady of the General's Mansion?" Xie Lingqin was putting down the cup inadvertently when she heard a woman beside her calling her in a low voice.
Xie Lingqin turned her head and nodded, "That's it."
"I am a minister of the Ministry of War, and I am ranked sixth. My name is Li Qingru."
The Minister of War?
A woman has a melon-shaped face, beautiful eyes, and a beautiful girl. She is a little bit ordinary. She stands among the silks and silks in the hall.
Looking at the maid behind him, it was obvious that he should not be favored at home, but it was really strange to be here this time.
Logically speaking, it is not an exaggeration to the Shangshu family for the legitimate daughter, but it is a bit strange to come to the concubine's daughter.
"Miss Xie, please don't laugh at me. My eldest sister was going to come this time, but when she was about to go out, she was stopped by her mother and said that she asked me to come today. Although I was surprised, she was not good at not coming. Thinking that maybe I was filial and obedient all day long, my mother wanted me to find a good friend." The woman said, smiling shyly, and her hand was still crampedly tucked in the silk handkerchief. It was obvious that she wanted to get close to Xie Lingqin and was so nervous that she was afraid of saying the wrong thing.
Xie Lingqin looked at her. She knew that the legitimate lady of the Minister of War was the one who was a brother and sister with Li Junru.
Not only was she born in a beautiful country, she was virtuous and virtuous, and was very happy to be the queen. However, not only did she not rely on her favor, but the Buddha was kind and often did good deeds. In addition, she was full of poetry, and was highly praised by everyone. She was a role model for women in the capital. The royal princess should give in to her when she saw her.
Once, there was a saying that he wanted to promise him to the prince, but later, for some reason, he didn't hear anyone mention it again.
This time, the birthday of Miss Ninth Miss Anping Hou Mansion, most of the people in the capital are here with their families and children. They say they are attending the birthday, and they can also be said to be making friends with some young men and women, and they plan to match their children in the future.
On such an occasion, Miss Li did not come and was still before leaving...
Suddenly a thread in his mind shot out a spark, Xie Lingqin's eyes narrowed, and her eyes accidentally swept through the entire banquet.
After a moment, he quietly ordered to Zihe.
When Zihe heard this, he retreated immediately.
After Xie Lingqin chatted with the lady for a few more casual conversations, Zihe came over and spoke in Xie Lingqin's ear and said in a low voice, "Miss, you are good at it. I have just patrolled around, but only some unpopular concubines and daughters are still on the table, while Miss Ninth, Second Young Master and Fourth Miss are gone."
Xie Lingqin's eyes tightened slightly, and she looked forward again, in the uppermost hall.
There, the Marquis of Anping, the wife of Anping, the eldest son of Anping, and the wise king, and all the adults were drinking and greeting each other, which was very lively.
But the prince was not seen alone.
The prince clearly came to Anping Marquis' Mansion, but he did not attend the seat at this time, which means he left halfway.
Just now, An Shangning was called away by the maid for a long time, but she had not come here.
Xie Lingqin suddenly took a deep breath, could it be...
Xie Lingqin lied that she would go out for some breath and would get up if she acted.
But Zihe secretly pulled her sleeve.
"Miss, there is something different about it. You'd better stay here." Zihe whispered, looking nervous.
Zihe is also a smart woman. Xie Lingqin is so obvious that she naturally guessed something. She didn't want the lady to take risks. At this time, it is safest to sit here.
However, Xie Lingqin looked at her faintly and gently pulled her sleeves without a trace.
"Zihe."
With just a call, Zihe consciously let go of his hand.
The master and servant left the mat and walked towards the backyard. Not long after they walked, they heard footsteps and signaled that Zihe would silence. Xie Lingqin pulled her and hid in the dense branches beside her.
"The front yard has now opened, and the Marquis told us to be careful."
"Don't worry, I have arranged the second young master and the others."
It was not until the two guards were dressed invisible that Xie Lingqin and Zihe walked out quietly.
"I'm afraid there's something wrong with Anping Marquis' Mansion today... Miss, let's go back to the table." Zihe looked solemn, and he just came forward to knock Xie Lingqin out.
Xie Lingqin was unmoved.
I'm afraid it's not just something that's so simple.
According to the conversation between the guard just now, when he came to Anping Hou’s mansion before, when he heard the words of the two housekeepers, the Xianwang seemed to have been chatting with Anping Hou in the study for a long time.
Is it a threat?
Has it been agreed?
At this time, the Marquis Anping and Mrs. Anping were able to sit safely on the table and chat and laugh, and obviously made all preparations.
"Miss, listen, there is something going on." Zihe's face suddenly tightened.
Xie Lingqin nodded, her eyes slightly darkened, "I heard it, it was the sound of a large number of iron cavalry approaching, very quickly, very quickly."
"Then we..."
Zihe stopped his voice as soon as he was halfway through his speech.
Because, at the same time, the uninterrupted loud laughter that could be heard in the front yard seemed to be gone in an instant.
Like a noisy sea, it instantly becomes quiet, so quiet that a heavy smell can be heard in the wind.
Things are different, there will be monsters.
Then, a sharp voice spreading from far to near was heard.
"According to the emperor's will, Marquis Anping colluded with barbarians from abroad, intending to plot against us. The evidence is conclusive. I issued a special order to immediately capture 203 people from all over the Anping Hou's Mansion and be imprisoned. I will be sentenced to judge this."
The sound stopped, and it seemed to be quieter.
It seemed that the bright light in the sky became dark instantly.
Xie Lingqin did not move, and Zihe did not move either. She just looked at Xie Lingqin quietly. She was as quiet as a stone sculpture, and seemed to have already jumped out of thousands of miles.
The black hair was lifted by the wind, but it could not hide her handsome eyebrows.
"Miss, we must go to the front yard, otherwise we may be in trouble." Zihe said in a serious tone.
At this moment, after a moment of quietness, the sound of swords and swords fighting came.
To be continued...
