The man retreated all the way to the rear, and even the shadows of Nangong Yuyue's white-clothed guards could not be seen, then his face completely fell. A small official who followed him hurriedly asked, "Sir Ke, where is the national teacher..." Lord Ke waved his hand and walked back with a cold face. There were also several carriages in the team behind, but they were not as gorgeous and ostentatious as Nangong Yuyue. When Lord Ke passed by the first carriage, the curtain of the carriage was lifted away from the departure, revealing a gentle and elegant face.

The man was wearing a light blue cloth dress and sat upright in the carriage, but he felt as gentle as jade.

"Mr. Ke."

Lord Ke stopped and bowed to the man as a salute, "The eldest prince."

The other party seemed to be missing his perfunctory attitude, and smiled indifferently and shook his head, "Mr. Su, don't be polite. Qin is just a prostitute. What's more, the King of Western Qin is not my father, so why dare to call him a prince?" The former King of Western Qin died. The King of Western Qin is Qin Shu's younger brother, but after the new king ascended the throne, he did not enthrone Qin Shu any titles. Therefore, Qin Shu's identity in Western Qin was really embarrassing. However, Qin Shu didn't live in Western Qin, so it doesn't matter. In Northern Jin, most people still call Qin Shu the eldest prince. This title sounds normal but depends on what the person who is called. If he is kind, such a title would give Qin Shu face. If he is malicious, such a title would be full of sarcasm.

Although Lord Ke didn't take Qin Shu seriously, he was a person sent by Tuoba Liang after all. Knowing that Tuoba Liang valued this person, he was still a little polite. He said, "Since that's the case, the official will call Mr. Qin?"

Qin Shu nodded, "Very good, what's wrong with the national teacher?"

Lord Ke's face was slightly dark, and he said, "The National Master wants to stay in the city ahead for a day." Along the way, they had been delaying for more than three days because of the National Master's reason. This forced Lord Ke to suspect that Nangong Yuyue was deliberately delaying time. However, he was a little confused about why Nangong Yuyue deliberately delayed time."

Qin Shu smiled faintly and said, "The national master wants to stop, we can't force it."

Lord Ke was a little anxious and frowned and said, "Your Majesty's order... If we go late, I'm afraid it's..."

Qin Shu shook his head and said, "Mr. Ke, you and I know the temper of the national master. If you really make him angry, I am afraid that you and I will not only fail to fulfill His Majesty's entrustment, but also have to take his own life. That would be a loss." Mr. Ke frowned and said, "What should we do?" He also knew that Nangong Yuyue could not mess with him. If Nangong Yuyue found an excuse to kill them, I am afraid that His Majesty would not seek justice for his sect.

Qin Shu thought for a while and said, "If Lord Ke is worried, you might as well arrange the person first. What Your Majesty wants is Tuoba Yin... If we arrive in Pingjing, Tuoba Yin is still there, and if he runs first, we will take the opportunity to solve him, so as not to sharpen his tongue with the Age of Qiren. Even though the Age of Qiren is cowardly, he has many scheming."

Lord Ke thought about it and felt that this was the only way. He bowed to Qin Shu, turned around and told someone to do something.

The convoy had started to move forward again. Qin Shu looked up at the team in front of him, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Young Master, Keteji has left the road." The carriage had been replaced with a snow-white animal skin carpet, and a slight smoke ignited from the incense burner in the corner not far away. The whole carriage was filled with a faint fragrance, and the blood just now seemed to have never existed.

Hearing this, Nangong Yuyue opened her eyes and sneered, saying, "Don't worry about him. If Tuoba Yin can't even deal with those wastes, then he will be like this."

"Yes, young master." There was no movement outside the carriage, and the huge team still walked forward slowly.

As soon as Chu Ling returned to the princess's mansion, the chief of the mansion came to report that Shangguan Chengyi had arrived and had been waiting for her for a long time.

Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled and said, "Mr. Shangguan has a lot of money every day, but he has time to sit here and wait for me?" People like Shangguan Chengyi are basically willing to come to the door in person to give people face. The master has to wait until he is not at home, which shows that something is really wrong.

The chief minister respectfully said, "Duke Xiangguo is here, Lord Shangguan plays chess with Duke Xiangguo in his study."

"So that's it." Chu Ling nodded, "Go and report it, I'll change my clothes and go there."

"Yes, princess."

When Chu Ling returned to the room and changed her clothes to go to the study, Shangguan Chengyi and Duke Xiangguo no longer played chess. The two sat in the study and drank tea, as if they were very compatible. Seeing Chu Ling come in, the two hurriedly stood up, "Princess." Chu Ling raised his hand to stop the salute and said with a smile, "It's rare that my uncle and Lord Shangguan come to my princess's mansion today, but what's wrong?"

Duke Xiangguo smiled and said, "I have nothing to do. I just come to tell you that the envoys of Northern Jin are about to arrive. I happened to meet Lord Shangguan coming. I haven't played chess for a long time, so I played two games with him." Chu Ling frowned and said, "I said that the envoys of Northern Jin are coming, but I haven't figured out what reason they came from? Now they are not in the New Year or the Festival."

The Duke of Xiangguo sighed lightly and said, "Isn't the princess's return urgently? They said they were here to congratulate His Majesty on finding the princess."

Chu Ling sneered and raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that the envoys from the Northern Jin Posthouse have given gifts." Although the relationship between the two countries is really not very good, it is a waste of time to be an envoy, but the Northern Jin did have an instructor in Tianqi. After all, it is inconvenient to send messages now, and some things are bright when they are transmitted to Shangjing. The officials of the inn will deal with some less important things and then report them to the Northern Jin court.

Duke Xiangguo smiled and said, "I'm going to come, Your Majesty can't say it's not for it."

Chu Ling nodded and said, "Who else except Nangong Yuyue?"

Duke Xiangguo frowned and said, "And... the eldest prince of Western Qin, Qin Shu. How much do you know about this person?"

Chu Ling was stunned, "Qin Shu?"

"What?" Duke Xiangguo looked at her in confusion, and Shangguan Chengyi also looked over. Chu Ling smiled helplessly and said, "Qin Shu... I really know him, and his previous relationship was pretty good. However... I have known each other for two or three years, but I didn't see him until I left Shangjing. Qin Shu probably was different from what I imagined. His relationship with Tuoba Liang seemed to be pretty good. This time, he was sent as an envoy to serve as an envoy, and it seems that Tuoba Liang trusted him quite a lot."

Duke Xiangguo frowned and said, "So, this Qin Shu cannot be underestimated." He has seen Ah Ling's ability. Qin Shu is definitely not an easy person to deceive her for two or three years. This eldest prince of Western Qin did not pay attention to this before, but just regarded it as an ordinary Western Qin proton. However, it is indeed not easy to be able to survive under Tuoba Liang.

Shangguan Chengyi suddenly asked, "Princess, how much does that prince of Xiqin know about you?"

Chu Ling looked at him with some surprise and said, "It's probably as much as I know him."

In other words, even though they have been together for two years, they actually don’t know who they know. Speaking of which, when my friend reaches this point, Chu Ling doesn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

Shangguan Chengyi seemed very satisfied, "That's good. Since we don't know each other, the princess is not a loss."

"..." Is this what the old fox in the officialdom thinks?

"I wonder what Lord Shangguan is coming to the door today?" Chu Ling asked.

Duke Xiangguo looked at Shangguan Chengyi, "Does Lord Shangguan need to avoid it?" Shangguan Chengyi waved his hand and said, "I came for official business, and there is nothing that cannot be said to others."

Chu Ling looked at Shangguan Chengyi with great interest. She didn't know that Shangguan Chengyi would talk to her about business. In the eyes of Prime Minister Shangguan, shouldn't she behave like a princess in the princess's mansion and wait for marriage, and it would be better not to do anything?

Shangguan Chengyi naturally understood Chu Ling's expression and said helplessly, "Princess, since I am Prime Minister of the Age, I will naturally put the overall situation first."

Chu Ling did not complain about Shangguan Chengyi.

She believed what Shangguan Chengyi said. After all, as a Apocalypse person, as long as Shangguan Chengyi did not collude with the people of the Clan to stolen the country, he always hoped that Apocalypse would be good. However, sometimes people's ideas and positions are too far apart, and tit-for-tat may not be malice, but they just think that their methods are better. Of course, Chu Ling firmly believed that Shangguan Chengyi was absolutely malicious about his gender.

These old scholars just think that as a woman trying to interfere in major affairs in the court is a very rebellious thing. No matter what she does, it is unacceptable.

Although he thought so in his heart, Chu Ling did not show any sign of it, and smiled and said, "This is natural, and I and my uncle naturally believe that Lord Shangguan is selfless. I wonder what Lord Shangguan wants to talk about?" Shangguan Chengyi sighed and said, "Your Majesty's position is vacant. Although there are three concubines in charge of the harem, it is not right to say anything. Seeing that the envoy of Tianqi is coming, I am afraid that the princess will come to preside over the palace banquet.

Chu Ling frowned slightly, and said in confusion, "The three empresses have never made any mistakes in the harem for many years. Why do we have to host this time? If it is just for legitimate reasons, how did the Apocalypse come over the years? If you are so concerned about this matter, why don't you advise your father to establish a queen as soon as possible?" Shangguan Chengyi shook his head and said, "Princess, I really couldn't choose, but now that I have a princess and the princess is still waiting to be named as the eldest princess of the royal family, it is naturally more appropriate for the princess to come forward, so as not to make the Northern Jin envoy think that we have neglected them."

Chu Ling held the handrail with one elbow and frowned slightly, "Has the Prime Minister been too accommodating to the people of the Clan?" What's more, Chu Ling did not think that the people of the Clan would care about this. They themselves do not distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate. The Northern Jin Emperor even had several queens. It is hard to say who is legitimate and illegitimate.

"The courtesy cannot be abolished." Shangguan Chengyidao. Chu Ling thought for a while and nodded and said, "Well, I will discuss this matter with my father and the three empresses. Lord Shangguan comes here in person, it will not be just for this matter, right?" Shangguan Chengyi shook his head and said, "What will the princess plan to deal with the matter of that girl in Butterfly?"

Chu Ling was a little surprised and raised her eyebrows and said, "Sir Shangguan shouldn't ask his father about this?"

Shangguan Chengyi stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty's attitude, I think I can see a little bit clearly. This matter is not on Your Majesty, but on Your Majesty." Your Majesty clearly did not take Chu Dieyi seriously, but was just a hot-headed mansion for Prince Anxin's mansion.

"So, Lord Shangguan believes in this palace?" Chu Ling smiled. Shangguan Chengyi looked at Chu Ling for a long time and said, "If you have to choose one, I hope the princess is true." Chu Ling didn't say anything for a while, and after a while, she sighed and said, "Mr. Shangguan is so clear about public and private affairs, I feel a little sorry for you."

Shangguan Chengyi naturally knew what she was talking about, and smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything.

Chu Ling nodded and said, "I understand what Lord Shangguan means. I will deal with Chu Dieyi before the people of the Clan left. That's not what I said before..." Shangguan Chengyi stared at Chu Ling and said, "I have thought about it carefully what the princess said before... As long as the princess can successfully deal with the messengers from the Clan this time, it will not make Tianqi bow to the Clan again. I... am willing to believe in the princess for a while."

Chu Ling nodded, "So... what does Lord Shangguan want?"

Shangguan Chengyi said, "The dog son... Please show mercy to the princess."

Chu Ling was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled lightly. A clear voice sounded in the study room, with a bit of pleasure. Shangguan Chengyi... It's indeed not simple.

Chu Ling looked at him with his head tilted, "Don't you think about it anymore? I can still afford more prices."

Shangguan Chengyi said, "I dare not."

Chu Ling nodded, "One word is certain."

After seeing Shangguan Chengyi off, Chu Ling stared at the empty door and said thoughtfully, "Shangguan Chengyi...is very interesting."

Duke Xiangguo drank tea and said lightly, "If it was boring, he would not have been able to go from a poor Jinshi to the current prime minister. Ah Ling, you need to remember that no one in this world is perfect." Shangguan Chengyi was unrighteous to his wife, but it does not mean that there is a problem with his ability.

Chu Ling naturally understood this truth, but as a woman, she always congenitally disliked some scumbags. No matter how many great achievements this scumbag has, Shangguan Chengyi can be regarded as a scumbag to some extent. Xiangguo is fair, "You must understand that you choose to win over Shangguan Chengyi instead of Zhu Zhao'an. Shangguan Chengyi was born in Qingliu, and there are not so many families involved behind him. Although Zhu Zhao'an has military power, he comes from a famous family and is mixed behind him. Even if you can tell him himself, you may not reach an agreement with the forces behind him. These powerful families... the destruction of the country is actually nothing. Even if Tianqi is destroyed, they will not be destroyed. If it is well operated, they are still powerful families who enjoy the rich clothes and food. Therefore, it is often very difficult to tell them."

Chu Ling nodded and expressed his understanding, "Yes, Jun Wuhuan told me this way. What's more, military power is not something that can only be started from Zhu Zhao'an. However, in terms of government affairs, we can't avoid Shangguan Chengyi. At present, we have no one who can replace Shangguan Chengyi."

Chu Ling didn't like Shangguan Chengyi, but it did not affect his cooperation with him. As long as Shangguan Chengyi did not cooperate with the enemy and treason, everything would be easy to say.

"Aren't you afraid that Shangguan Chengyi would want you to convince Mrs. Zhuo?" asked Duke Xiangguo.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "Mr. Shangguan is a smart person and will not make unreasonable demands. Look, he knew that Shangguan Yunru was in my hands, but he did not ask me to let him go."

"Maybe he was cheating you." Duke Xiangguo smiled.

Chu Ling shook her head. Shangguan Chengyi might not be able to find Shangguan Yunru without evidence, but he did determine that Shangguan Yunru was in her hands. Chu Ling could still tell whether he was cheating her. Moreover, Shangguan Chengyi was not as concerned as a false reputation as outsiders. If it weren't for this, Shangguan Chengyi would have to fight with her as soon as Mrs. Zhuo moved out of the Shangguan family.

Very good, smart, sensible in the current affairs, and not so fond of fame. Chu Ling was barely satisfied with Shangguan Chengyi, a collaborator.

Duke Xiangguo took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Ling and said, "This is what the old man in the Huang family asked me to you."

"Huang Family?" Chu Ling was stunned and reached out and saw that the letter was indeed the letter of Censor Huang. He was a little curious for a moment. Censor Huang actually wrote to her? Could it be that he wanted to scold her?

When he opened the letter, Chu Ling realized that he had judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. Huang Jingshi's letter did not contain any other identity, and he was quite polite. He only said that the princess would teach the dog more in the future. Xiangguo was fair, "Huang Jingshi drove Huang Jingxuan out of the house."

"Hmm?" Chu Ling was stunned, "Teep out of the house?"

Duke Xiangguo nodded, "Huang Jingxuan insisted on joining the army and refused to study at home. In anger, Huang Jingshi drove his son out of the house. This letter was sent by Mrs. Huang to your aunt."

Chu Ling thought about it and immediately realized that although the Huang family was a bit famous in the capital, it was not very powerful. The Huang family has been literati for generations, and most of them were censors and censors, belonging to the Qingliu faction. If Huang Jingxuan had been a soldier and had been a small soldier after entering the Shenyou Army, and he had been a quiet soldier and a safe army, and he might not have anything to do. If anything happens in the future, the entire Huang family will be attacked by the princess's mansion. Huang Jingshi probably also realized that she, the Shenyou Princess, is not a calm person, and something will happen sooner or later. So he took the lead in picking out the Huang family from it. No matter what Huang Jingxuan or the Shenyou Army did in the future, it has nothing to do with the Huang family.

These days, there are indeed many smart people than idiots.

Duke Xiangguo looked at her and said, "Don't blame him, he..."

"Uncle, I understand." Chu Ling smiled and said, "Don't make plans for each other, not to mention that they are responsible for the fate of a family. I have nothing to do with me. Why do you want others to take risks with me? Being able to give up a son is already a high look at me." If she was a prince, the Huang family might be willing to gamble with her. Unfortunately, she is a princess, so why should the Huang family lose the future of the entire family and mess with her?

The Duke of Xiangguo nodded and smiled with some relief, "It's fine if you understand."

Duke Xiangguo stayed until the evening before getting up and leaving. Chu Ling originally wanted to keep him for dinner. Duke Xiangguo only said that there was something wrong with Chu Ling and he couldn't force him to stay, so he personally sent him out.

"Princess." As soon as Duke Xiangguo left, Chu Ling had not turned around and returned home, he saw a person coming hurriedly. Chu Ling recognized him as the manager of Jun Wuhuan and couldn't help but smile, "What's the matter with your young master?" The visitor took out a post and smiled, "The young master said tonight, Prince Anxin and Prince Boning held a banquet for King Shen to practice, and asked the princess if she would go?"

Chu Ling was a little puzzled, "Uncle Anxin and Uncle Boning held a banquet, but instead of inviting me, I went to invite Jun Wuhuan?" Is she so annoying? Is the two Uncle Wang not even wanting to invite her to hold a banquet?

The man felt a little embarrassed and said, "This...it's probably because the banquet is not convenient for the female family to go there. So the two princes didn't post to the princess, right? The young master said that it was just a private banquet."

Chu Ling’s result post was read...Cui Yuxuan.

“Where is this place?”

The man looked at Chu Ling, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Cuiyuxuan is... one of the three famous buildings in Pingjing." In fact, he felt that the young master who sent the post to the princess was really sick. Such a place was obviously where the female family stopped. The young master even took the initiative to send the post to the princess, and I don't know what he thought.

Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, put away the post in a good mood and smiled, "Thank you, your son for me. It's indeed a good place, I'm going."

"..." The princess... didn't seem to be anywhere normal either.

Chu Ling carefully put away the post and waved his hand and said, "Go back to your son, I'll go with him tonight."

The man had to bow carefully and said, "Yes, my subordinates will leave."

After the man left, Chu Ling turned around and returned to the princess's mansion. While walking, he took out a post and watched it carefully, "My two uncles Wang are a bit interesting. Is it a place like Cuiyuxuan for King Shen?" Is there no place in the palace or is the singer and dancer of the palace not pretty enough? People like Tuoba Yin don't seem to be able to trap them with a beauty trick.

But... no matter what, I have never visited the brothels in Pingjing. It is also a good thing to go and see the courtesan of Apocalypse.
Chapter completed!
