After listening to Wu Meiniang's words, Princess Linchuan in the carriage fell silent for a moment.
The other party came directly outside the camp to prevent her from entering the camp, which made her very unhappy. Fang Jun's refusal to meet her made her embarrassed. How could Fang Jun not understand the meaning of her own princess choosing such a time to come to her door? ? It was hard for her to bear the thought of being sent away like a piece of cargo to be humiliated by a man, but Fang Jun ignored her like this, which also hurt a woman's self-confidence...
But Wu Meiniang's blunt words about Wuji completely exposed her thoughts, which made her even more embarrassed and embarrassed.
But she didn't dare to get mad at Wu Mei Niang, because she not only knew that this woman was too ruthless to offend, but also knew that Fang Jun loved her very much. From a concubine, she could go in and out of the military camp at will in the middle of the night, and even go to fight in front of her, a princess. This can be seen in the questioning of guilt.
Once this woman is angered, if the wind blows when she goes back to pillow, not only will Fang Jun's hope of seeking help be completely shattered, but Fang Jun will also become furious and attack Zhou Daowu even more...
Taking a deep breath, Princess Linchuan opened the carriage curtain, walked out of the carriage and stood on the carriage shaft. She was almost eye level with Wu Meiniang, who was riding on the horse. She looked at her valiant appearance in the night and said slowly: "My husband was originally with the Yue Kingdom. There is some dissatisfaction between the Duke and the Duke, but it is just a dispute of will, far from being a life-and-death enemy. This time, my husband has been framed and is in jail. He is in danger. I have no choice but to come to the door late at night, and beg the Duke of Yue to pay homage to my relatives. If I give up my old grudges and reach out for justice, I, as well as the Runan Zhou family, will express my gratitude to Duke Yue for his kindness and will never forget it. If there is an assignment in the future, I will never postpone it!"
Under the firelight, her face was still pale, her bare hands were tightly holding the skirt of her clothes, and she felt extremely uneasy inside.
She has been stubborn since she was a child and has a willful personality. She has never bowed her head in front of others, but now she has to be humble and submissive in front of a concubine. Naturally, she is very depressed and is about to shed tears.
But even though she looks pitiful like this, is Wu Meiniang such a compassionate, kind-hearted person?
Wu Meiniang raised the corner of her mouth, tightened her cloak, and said in a cold and sweet voice: "Does His Highness Linchuan think that the slave family is a fool and will believe your nonsense?"
Princess Linchuan's expression changed: "What does Mrs. Wu mean by this?"
Wu Meiniang's starry eyes flickered, and she scanned Princess Linchuan's still slender body, and said calmly: "Even if you come to my husband to beg for mercy, why don't you come during the day, but in the dead of night? Come to the house? What is His Highness thinking, and who can he hide it from? In addition... His Highness should have taken a bath before leaving the house, right? "
I'll grab your sore spot and beat you to death, only then will I echo Wu Meiniang's style...
"You are presumptuous!"
Princess Linchuan's pretty face was red, almost bleeding, and she was almost filled with shame and anger.
Not only did Wu Meiniang directly expose the unbearable thoughts in her heart and tear them apart bloody, but also because she did take a bath before leaving the house, and even changed into a new one for her close-fitting clothes...
Wu Meiniang didn't care at all about Princess Linchuan's anger. She slightly raised her snow-white pointed chin, and her perfect lips looked more fresh and tender as petals under the firelight, but the words she spat out were like swords.
"Whether your husband lives or dies is your own business, but you want to drag my husband into the water. How does this make sense?"
Princess Linchuan was a little confused when she was angry, and couldn't turn around for a while: "Have I ever dragged Duke Yue into the water?"
Wu Meiniang sneered, her pretty face frosted: "If Your Highness always admires my husband, whether it is to seduce him intentionally or to recommend him as a pillow, it is just a disgrace to women, and people can do whatever they want. But now that Zhou Daowu has been imprisoned. You just came to my door, maybe you just love me and took the opportunity to do good things, but how will outsiders know? It will only say that you were coerced by my husband. In this way, doesn't it mean that I deliberately framed my husband to humiliate the princess? 'The crime? Being so poisonous as a snake and scorpion, yet still pretending to be pitiful and weak, is really despised by women all over the world!"
"..."
Princess Linchuan was shaken all over. She even ignored the viciousness in Wu Meiniang's words. The color drained from her face as she realized something was wrong.
Although the vicious-tongued Wu Meiniang is extremely hateful and deserves to be cut to pieces, there is some truth in her words. If Zhou Daowu really fell into the trap of Fang Jun and tricked the prince into imprisoning him for a serious crime, he might have had the intention in his heart to force himself to do so. Send him to your doorstep and let him humiliate you.
It's one thing for him to willingly send her husband to the door in order to save her. It's another thing for Fang Jun to have a vicious mind and plan to lure her into his trap and let him humiliate her.
Active and passive, the process is different, the effect is different, and the feelings are naturally different...
How did Wu Meiniang know that Princess Linchuan simply missed the point?
Staring at the other party with burning eyes, he asked: "But someone gave His Highness an idea and asked His Highness to come late at night?"
"..." Princess Linchuan was startled here. She felt that Wu Meiniang had a clear understanding of the fire and every detail. She subconsciously said: "Aunt Fangling happened to be in the house before..."
Halfway through the words, I realized something was wrong and quickly shut up, but it was already too late.
"Princess Fangling?"
Wu Meiniang's eyes were gleaming, her silver teeth were biting secretly: "This bitch!"
When she looked at Princess Linchuan, her eyes were a little softer. She was just a stupid woman whose brain was not big enough and was taken advantage of, and she almost made a big mistake...
"The details are very involved. The slave family will explain it to Langjun in detail. As for Zhou's consort, Langjun still needs to make a decision. His Highness Linchuan should please come back."
"That's fine."
Princess Linchuan has realized that if she steps into this military camp today, there will be unpredictable serious consequences, so she has no choice but to go back first and then worry about it.
Besides, she was indeed prepared to sacrifice herself when she came here. Now that she was exposed in front of Wu Meiniang, she felt hot all over and her face was feverish. How could she still have the dignity to wait?
After saying a few words, he quickly retracted into the carriage and urged the driver to drive away.
Wu Meiniang watched Princess Linchuan leave, turned her horse's head, rode into the military camp, and headed straight for the central army. Arriving outside the commander's tent, the soldiers in front of the tent knelt on one knee one after another, performed military salutes, and said in unison: "I have seen Mrs. Wu!"
No one dared to treat her concubine lightly because of her status as a concubine. Everyone knew that the person talking in Fang Jun's inner room was not the noble Princess Gaoyang, but the charming and charming Wu Lady in front of her. Even the head of the house, Fang Jun, Xuanling attaches great importance to him and often discusses important matters...
Wei Ying stepped forward to help Wu Meiniang dismount.
Throwing the reins to Wei Ying, Wu Meiniang's eyes flashed, she smiled softly and said in a low voice: "You did a great job this time. You should keep working hard."
The sound was not loud, but the soldiers nearby could hear it clearly, and they all looked at Wei Ying with surprised expressions.
Wei Ying stared blankly at Wu Meiniang, who was walking lightly into the tent, his face full of confusion... What does "did a good job this time" mean? Does it mean that he leads the horse, falls into the saddle, and serves him well?
This was naturally impossible. Wei Ying's first thought was that someone from the inner house must have reported the news, so he went to stop Princess Linchuan. So the question is, who is the person who tipped off the news?
Just looking at the eyes of the surrounding soldiers looking at him, Wei Ying felt depressed and wanted to hit the wall, and at the same time shouted: You are me!
This woman is causing trouble and trying to cover up the real informant. The real informant is even one of you...
…
In the tent, Fang Jun stepped forward and gently took off Wu Meiniang's cloak, and poured a cup of hot tea with his own hands. The couple sat opposite each other on both sides of the desk. Fang Jun smiled and said: "Linchuan is eager to save her husband, and she stalks her to death. , if the lady hadn’t stepped forward, I don’t know how long we would have been entangled without being beaten or scolded, it’s really troublesome, thank you madam for the rescue.”
Wu Meiniang held the tea cup in her bare hands and sat on the chair. She took a sip of tea in a leisurely manner. She glanced at Fang Jun's face with watery eyes and said quietly: "I'm arrogant. His Highness Linchuan came here with a request. The husband got what he wanted, just because you and I wanted each other to get what they needed. I acted recklessly and spoiled the husband's good deeds, so I was terrified."
Fang Jun: "..."
Are you scared? Look at that knife-like look in your eyes, you are so brave!
"Ah haha..." She laughed dryly and said helplessly: "The lady has already sternly rejected my husband, and she was even afraid that the ladies would misunderstand her, so she didn't even let Linchuan in through the gate of the camp. Her loyalty can be judged by the sun and the moon, and she will not praise her husband." It's enough to keep one's body like a jade, so why bother to speak sarcastically? I originally put my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch, and it hurts my wife..."
Seeing his exaggeration and pretentiousness, Wu Meiniang rolled her eyes speechlessly, put the tea cup on the table, and got back to her business.
"Listening to what Linchuan said, the reason why she came here so late at night and was even prepared to sacrifice herself was because she was bewitched by Princess Fangling and didn't realize what kind of consequences it would bring to the husband if she stayed here tonight. Dangerous.”
The social atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, and the status of women was almost at the pinnacle of all dynasties. It was not uncommon for royal princesses to show off their appearance and have romantic relationships. Especially the daughters of Emperor Gaozu, their styles were corrupt and their reputations were extremely bad. If Linchuan secretly communicated with Fang Jun, had a tryst in the military camp, and spread the news in time, it would not be considered an earth-shattering event.
Of course, if Zhou Daowu refused to be humiliated and vowed to fight to the death, it would be another matter. For example, when Princess Fangling had an affair with Yang Yuzhi, her husband Dou Fengjie led his men to kill Yang Yuzhi. The matter became an uproar, and finally Li His Majesty can only sentence the couple to divorce, one separation and two leniency...
But now that Zhou Daowu is in jail and his life is in danger, Linchuan hates and humiliates Fang Jun in order to save his pension, and the nature of the matter has completely changed.
The royal family can tolerate the princesses going out to steal sex and feed themselves, but it absolutely cannot tolerate the princesses being forced to suffer the humiliation of their courtiers...
As long as Princess Linchuan stays in the military camp and Fang Jun can't help but touch her, there will definitely be an uproar.
Even if the prince continues to favor Fang Jun, if something like this happens, he cannot ignore the dignity of the royal family...
