When he woke up in his dream, Chu Ling rolled on the bed. He lay on the bed but didn't want to get up early to practice as usual. So he just lay down and stared blankly and sorted out what happened last night in his mind. Although he told Jun Wuhuan that using the black market to provoke the battle between Ming Wang and Tuoba Luo was not a casual talk, he still had to think about the details. After all, no one is a fool these days. As the eldest prince of the Northern Jin Dynasty, Tuoba Luo had no support from his mother and could always make the Northern Jin Dynasty regard him as the most suitable successor. It must not be as gentle as Chu Ling had seen him as the surface.

As for the Ming King Tuoba Liang... Not to mention that the two sides had actually made enemies in Xinzhou before. Just talking about Tuoba Liang, Chu Ling didn't like him very much.

Chu Ling felt that she was not a person who judged people by her appearance. Even if she was a person with a fierce and ugly appearance, she would not judge a person's good or bad at first glance. But Tuoba Liang gave Chu Ling the feeling that he didn't like it at first. Perhaps because he had heard of his rumors earlier, or perhaps because he had made enemies before, so he had preconceived ideas. In short, when he first saw Tuoba Liang, Chu Ling felt that this person had an uncomfortable vicious and ambitious nature and ambition all over his body. Chu Ling had never seen a person's eyes, so he looked like a hungry wolf in the dark night.

But no matter how unloved it, Chu Ling had to admit that Tuoba Liang was a very difficult person to deal with. In the past few years in Shangjing, she had a good relationship with Tuoba Luo, but she didn't know anything about Tuoba Liang. His troops, his underworld prison, and this black market, it's no wonder that the Northern Jin Emperor was so afraid of him.

After lying on the bed for a while, staying in bed was not her habit. Chu Ling jumped up from the bed and prepared to wash and continue practicing.

Chu Ling had just finished his homework every morning and was about to go for a meal. The servant came to report: "A Master Qin asked for a meeting."

"Young Master Qin?" Chu Ling was stunned. After a while, he came to his senses and said quickly: "Please invite him to the flower hall for tea."

Chu Ling changed her clothes and went to the front hall. Sure enough, she saw Qin Shu who was drinking tea in the flower hall. Chu Ling smiled and said, "Brother Qin came here early in the morning, but what's wrong?" Qin Shu put down the teacup and looked at her and smiled faintly, "Shengsheng, have you bothered?"

Chu Ling shook her head and said, "I'm doing nothing all day long, why bother with me? It's just a rare sight to see you come into the city."

Qin Shu smiled faintly and said, "Shengsheng is engaged, I still have time to congratulate you." Chu Ling waved his hand and said, "It's nothing big, it's just that, the wedding date is still early. Congratulations at that time." I really want to talk about it at that time.

Qin Shu looked at her carefully and couldn't help but smile, "Even if the women of the Clan are generous by nature, they are inevitably shy when talking about marriage. Sheng Sheng is more generous than them." Chu Ling blinked, "Are you saying I don't know how shy?"

Qin Shu shook his head, "I don't have this intention. You didn't go to the farewell banquet at the Sixth Prince's Mansion yesterday. I thought you had something to do with you."

Chu Ling shrugged and said, "Although I have been named a princess, I am not a royal family after all, and the relationship is awkward, so there is no need to get it."

Qin Shu nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's right."

Chu Ling looked at him and said with a smile: "You haven't said anything yet, what's the matter with me?"

Qin Shu said helplessly: "If you have nothing to do, can't you find me?"

Chu Ling said, "That's not what we say. What kind of friendship is ours? I welcome you whenever you come to see me. However, with your personality, if you are fine, you wouldn't come to the door so early in the morning, right?" Qin Shu is a very etiquette gentleman. The kind of things that appear in a girl's boudoir and roam around at night will generally not happen to him.

Qin Shu sighed lightly and said helplessly: "I can't hide it from you."

Chu Ling said: "If you have something to do, just say it, you don't have to be polite."

Qin Shu lowered his eyes and said, "Does Sheng Sheng know about Xi... His Majesty Xi Qin came to Beijing before?"

Chu Ling nodded and said, "Of course, hasn't the King of Western Qin left yet?" Duke Xiangguo and Shangguan Chengyi walked quickly, but the King of Western Qin and his group were still staying in Shangjing. Qin Shu sighed and said, "Western Qin sent ten noble girls to Northern Jin, including my ninth sister, and a cousin and cousin."

Chu Ling remembered what the King of Xiqin said last time in a village outside the city, and probably this cousin was the sister Tong. She seemed to be said to be accused of being a concubine for the eldest prince.

Chu Ling nodded and said, "What's wrong with them?"

Qin Shu closed his eyes and said, "Last night, Tong'er committed suicide."

Chu Ling was shocked and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This is not as simple as a girl who doesn't want to get married and commit suicide. If she doesn't do anything, the Northern Jin Emperor might take her anger on the Western Qin. Chu Ling looked at Qin Shu and asked softly: "Since this girl doesn't want to marry, the Western Qin King shouldn't have brought her here at the beginning." The Northern Jin Emperor did not name a name and insisted on anyone coming. Although it was unfair to those girls brought by this, the current situation of Western Qin was to express obedience to the Northern Jin rather than provoking. This brought people, but before getting married, it would be of no benefit to anyone.

Qin Shu said sadly: "It was she who wanted to come."

Chu Ling frowned, and she felt a little bad about this girl Tong. She originally thought that the King of Western Qin deliberately brought her to Qin Shu in order to poke Qin Shu's pain. After all, Qin Shu seemed to have a different relationship with that girl Tong.

Since no one forced her, she wanted to come but did this again. Could this girl have any deep hatred with the Western Qin royal family?

"What the hell is going on?" Chu Ling said: "Can you talk about it?"

Qin Shu had a hint of embarrassment on his face, but he also understood that it was impossible not to explain the matter clearly if he wanted to ask for help.

It turned out that the girl Tong's surname was Xu Yuetong, and she was the cousin born to Qin Shu's legitimate aunt. The two grew up together. When Qin Shu was the eldest prince of Western Qin, the King of Western Qin and the Queen of Western Qin once joked with the Xu family that they would let Xu Yuetong enter the palace to be the eldest prince's concubine in the future. However, no one expected that the Clan suddenly entered the pass, and the huge country of Tianqi and millions of soldiers were defeated in front of them, not to mention that Western Qin was just a small country. Later, Qin Shu entered Shangjing as a hostage. After the death of the King of Western Qin and the Queen, the throne was naturally passed to the second prince Qin Xi. However, Xu Yuetong never got married until this time when the candidates for marriage were selected, Xu Yuetong insisted on coming despite the opposition of her parents. Although Qin Xi's naughty child was indeed a bastard, she would not really force her aunt's only daughter to marry. This time, the matter was indeed what Xu Yuetong asked for.

After arriving in Beijing, Qin Shu and Xu Yuetong met, and only then did he realize that Xu Yuetong was not here to marry, she was here to find Qin Shu. She wanted to be with Qin Shu, so Qin Shu naturally refused. Qin Shu could even give up the throne and be a hostage for Xi Qin, so how could Qin Shu do something to harm Xi Qin at this time? After comforting Xu Yuetong, Xu Yuetong has been quiet these days, and Qin Shu thought she had already let go. Who knew that the Northern Jin Emperor had just booked the time for Xu Yuetong to enter the eldest prince's mansion today, so she committed suicide.

"Have you saved it?" Chu Ling asked.

Qin Shu nodded with a sad expression and said with a wry smile: "It's just that we are sorry for her. If the Western Qin royal family had not been incompetent, why would it be necessary..."

Chu Ling said in his heart: "You are indeed sorry for the girls who were forced to marry, but you are not sorry for Xu Yuetong. After all, she was here." What's more, when Qin Shu left Xi Qin, he told the Xu family to marry by himself. At the beginning, it was only two families who had talked about it, and Xu Yuetong was not engaged.

Chu Ling looked at Qin Shu and asked, "Then what do you think now? But what are the places you need my help?"

Qin Shu said with a little ashamed: "This matter has been temporarily blocked. I know that you have some friendship with the eldest prince and the eldest prince. Can you ask for help to talk to the eldest prince and let Yuetong temporarily stop the time of entering the mansion?" Chu Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Qin Shu said that she would help Xu Yuetong get out, it would be really difficult, but Qin Shu never made any demands for force, but this would not be a difficult task.

But... "I heard from you, I think that Miss Xu's temperament is a bit stubborn. Even if the time is delayed, can you persuade her? If you force yourself to enter the mansion, what happens in the future..."

Qin Shu smiled helplessly and said, "Look at it again, it's because His Majesty's time has been set too fast this time, and it's the day after tomorrow, so he can only trouble Sheng Sheng." Xu Yuetong was just a beauty sent by a vassal state. Even the noble lady of Xi Qin was not the princess of the royal family. It was said that she was a concubine, but she was just a concubine, so naturally there was no need for the Northern Jin Emperor to choose a special day. It was just a staggered marriage date for the eldest prince and the eldest prince's concubine.

Chu Ling couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little sympathetic to Qin Shu. Not only did his younger brother be a naughty child, but he also had a headache. Even if he became a proton, I'm afraid Qin Shu wouldn't feel at ease with Xi Qin for a long time.

As soon as Qin Shu was sent away, Yaduo came in with the post sent by the Tian family.

"Shengsheng, your friend is gone?"

Chu Ling nodded, looked at the post in her hand and asked, "The Tian family sent it?" Yaduo smiled and said, "You are so smart. You are so smart. Please go to celebrate the birthday party for the old lady of the Tian family." Yaduo flipped through the post and said, "These Central Plains families are really exquisite. I have received so many posts in the past two years. This is the best I have ever seen."

Chu Ling took the post and saw that it was indeed very exquisite. Not only was the exquisite handwriting also very beautiful, and the words were exquisite and refined. At first glance, it was something from the scholarly family.

Yaduo sat down and frowned and said, "You can go to the Tian family's birthday party, but I won't go. I think it's better not to attend those banquets recently, it's too troublesome." Looking at Yaduo's frowning look, Chu Ling couldn't help laughing, "What? Or do people come to propose marriage every day? Sister Aduo, I think you are about the same age. Why don't we choose a suitable family to follow?"

Yaduo gave her a blank look, "I don't want it. I want to watch you get married and give me a baby to play with. I will rely on you for the rest of my life."

Chu Ling looked at her carefully, "If you are unhappy, just wait. Maybe the fate is not here. If the fate is coming, come and say this to me." Chu Ling knew that Yaduo has always been a little disregarded by this topic, and occasionally Chu Ling wanted to talk to her but she avoided it. However, Chu Ling used to be an old unmarried young woman, so naturally she didn't think Yaduo had to get married when she was sixteen or seventeen years old. If you are not happy, just wait first. What are the benefits of pressing people to get married?

Yaduo said, "Don't worry about me. If you have this skill, please pay attention to Mr. Changli. When it comes to serious business, the general's post has also been sent to us. If the general is not here, you may also give a gift to the general for the Tian family. The manager of the general's mansion has come. He said that in previous years, the generals just picked a gift and gave it to them, and they didn't attend these banquets very much."

The Tian family is now the best-selling family in the Northern Jin Dynasty. Because the Tian family did not surrender after the Northern Jin Dynasty entered the Central Plains, but instead took their family outside the pass when the previous head of the Tian family was still alive. This generation of heads made great contributions when the Northern Jin Dynasty entered the Pass. Now they are the official official of Pingzhang, the Minister of the Secretariat, and are second only to the left and right prime ministers. They are also the people of the Central Plains with the highest official position in the Northern Jin Dynasty. Not only that, the Northern Jin Emperor also posthumously named his father as Duke of Liang. Such an honor is not common among the people of the Clan. Therefore, the birthday of the Grandmaster of the Tian family, whether it is the Clan or the Central Plains, naturally comes to congratulate the family.

Chu Ling nodded and said, "Sister Aduo, please prepare." She really didn't care much about this matter. After all, she still had to dye the old lady's birthday party. I was really a bit disgusted. This was all an unethical thing that Jun Wuhuan did.

Yaduo also knew that she didn't bother with these things, nor did she care about them. Shengsheng didn't understand or know these things. In fact, her own relationships were all guided by Shengsheng. But she didn't like to take these trivial things to heart. Yaduo took them over and took care of them for her, which saved Chu Ling a lot of trouble.

Since he promised to help Qin Shu, Chu Ling must have to go to the eldest prince in person. Helan Zhen just got married and has been very busy these days, but she was still very happy to hear that Chu Ling was coming and pulled her to her yard to speak.

"Shengsheng, you finally came to see me, I'm going crazy." Helanzhen said.

Chu Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "Why is the princess going crazy? Could it be that the eldest prince bullying you?" Helan glared at her angrily and said depressedly: "You say, why are there so many things in a small prince's mansion? In the past, I didn't have so many things to deal with the people and livestock that my father gave me." Chu Ling knew that even the royal court outside the border was still simple, and Helan was a legitimate princess who did not interfere with the battle for the throne, and naturally lived a relaxed and comfortable life. When she arrived in Shangjing, even a small prince's mansion, all kinds of trivial matters, relationships, etc., it was easy to make a newly married girl dizzy.

Helan turned over the booklet in his hand irritably, "This family can't give this. What should I give to the full moon? What should I give to the birthday party? Who has a good relationship with whom, who has a disagreement with whom... My God, when did the people of the Clan be so annoying? They spend their time on these things, are their soldiers and horses okay?"

Chu Ling said in his heart: "According to this momentum, it may be really good if it continues to develop in twenty or thirty years. But now, the foundation is still there, and it is still okay to sweep the Age and Xi Qin."

Chu Ling said: "Didn't the eldest prince send someone to teach you?"

Helan Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, a wife from her mother's family, I don't know if she taught me. She has a very big temper and her nostrils are tilted to the sky. A bastard, is this princess or is she the prince's concubine!"

Chu Ling looked at her in surprise, "You wouldn't drive her away?"

Helan looked at her with a smile, "Can't it?"

Chu Ling thought about it and gave a thumbs up and praised, "Good job." After all, Helanzhen is foreign, and it will be difficult to establish her authority after being bullied from the beginning. If Tuoba Luo is a smart person, he will know how to deal with the relationship between his wife and mother's family, not to mention that Helanzhen is indeed not the fault of this matter.

"Can you watch it? If you can watch it, I will help you see it and tell you by the way?" Chu Ling asked.

Helanzhen immediately happily handed the booklet over, "Shengsheng is so good."

"..." Actually, you are waiting for me here, right?

Chu Ling indeed helped Helanzhen look at the booklet on the table, and also introduced to her the relationship between the powerful families in the capital and the etiquette that needs to be paid attention to in daily life. Helanzhen praised herself in her heart while listening. It was indeed comfortable to talk to Shengsheng. He heard that Shengsheng made these things much better than those who Tuoba Luo found. It was obvious that three sentences could clearly tell things clearly, but those people couldn't understand them for three hours and looked like you were so ignorant. What a thing!

When the matter was resolved, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Helan was really satisfied and wanted to invite Chu Ling to dinner. During the meal, Chu Ling mentioned Xu Yuetong's affairs. Naturally, she could not say that Xu Yuetong didn't want to marry the eldest prince to commit suicide. She only said that Xu Yuetong was unwell and wanted to take some rest. The eldest prince of Xiqin came to her door to ask her to help her talk to the eldest prince's mansion. Helan waved her hand and said, "What's the matter? It's just a trivial matter. Since she is not in good health, she will take care of her first and send it in a month. Now that she comes in, I don't have time to take care of her."

Chu Ling said: "Don't you need to report to Your Majesty and the eldest prince?"

Helan really glanced at her, "What are you reporting to? As long as you finally enter the eldest prince's mansion, it's enough. The eldest prince is not short of this woman. At worst, I can just find someone to compensate him first."

Chu Ling was speechless for a while. It seemed that Helan was really a qualified mistress. She was so generous. She just didn't know whether Tuoba Luo was happy or was heartbroken.

The two were talking, and Tuoba Luo had already taken Tuoba Yin in. "I heard laughter when I was still outside. It seems that the princess and the princess are really in love."

"The eldest prince, the fourth prince." Chu Ling stood up to greet him.

"Big Prince, Fourth Brother, why are you here? Sit down and have dinner together?" Helanzhen greeted the two of them with a smile, and told someone to add a few more dishes. After coming to Central Plains these days, what she was most satisfied with was that she had much more food in Shangjing than theirs, and she ate every meal with satisfaction.

Tuoba Yin thanked Helanzhen and Tuoba Luo lightly and sat down together. Tuoba Luo asked with a smile, "I heard that you both were in the yard all morning? Why didn't the princess invite her out for a walk when she came? What's the fun in your yard?"

Helan Zhen snorted lightly and said, "What do you know? Shengsheng taught me a lot of things. I understood all the messy things Shengsheng said."

Tuoba Luo laughed, "Why is it just a mess? Besides... I heard that the princess is even responsible for her own affairs."

Helanzhen said: "That's Sheng Sheng who is smart and knows everything."

Tuoba Luo shook his head helplessly, and Tuoba Yin sat on the side and had a meal silently.

Tuoba Luo looked at Chu Ling and asked inadvertently: "Princess, I wonder if Mr. Jun has ever mentioned to you that there is a special market in Shangjing?"

Chu Ling's eyebrows moved slightly, "Special market?" Could it be that Tuoba Luo was talking about the black market? Jun Wuhuan's work speed is OK.

Tuoba Luo said: "I just heard people mention it. It seems that it has been a long time but has not appeared in front of others. I think Mr. Changli is a businessman, and maybe the news will be more wide than ours." Chu Ling frowned, looking like he recalled it seriously. After a while, he said: "I accidentally heard from the people around Jun Wuhuan mentioned it, but listening to their tone is not a secret. It's just that Jun Wuhuan said that the place is not suitable for me. I don't know if it was a special market that the eldest prince mentioned, or maybe it was something else. Where did the eldest prince hear the news?"

Tuoba Luo smiled and said, "I was just a little curious when I heard a businessman say something casually."

Chu Ling shook her head and said, "I'm not very good at doing business, and I don't usually listen to Jun Wuhuan about these things. If the eldest prince is interested, I'll ask him for help?"

Tuoba Luo shook his head and said, "I was just a little curious for a moment. I don't need to bother the princess and the young master Changli. Just ask casually."

Chu Ling nodded and did not say anything more, as if she was not interested in this topic.

"The princess will probably attend the birthday party of the Tian family in two days?" asked the eldest prince.

Chu Ling nodded and said, "Yes, if your master is not here, I will send a gift for you. The Tian family also posted a post to me, so it's not easy to give Lord Tian a face." Tuoba Luo nodded and said, "Why might the princess and the princess go with you then? The fourth brother and sister can also go with you, A Yin, what do you think?"

Tuoba Yin raised his eyes and looked at him lightly, nodding his head casually.

Helanzhen clasped his hands and said, "That's great. I'm not familiar with the place alone. I feel relieved if I have my fourth brother and sister-in-law and Shengsheng accompany me. Shengsheng, are you going together?"

Chu Ling thought for a moment, then nodded decisively and agreed.

"Then let's go together, I'm not very familiar with each other."

After lunch, Chu Ling and Tuoba Yin said goodbye and came out of the eldest prince's mansion. After leaving the door, the two stood at the door and looked at each other in a hurry. They coughed lightly and said, "Fourth Prince, I'll say goodbye first." After that, they turned around and wanted to leave.

Tuoba Yin said: "Is the county main going back? Let's go together."

Chu Ling turned his head and looked at the Fourth Prince's Mansion next to the Great Prince's Mansion. Where can I go?

Tuoba Yin said: "I want to go to the Ministry of War."
To be continued...
