"Your Majesty, the second prince has been poisoned."
After the imperial doctors diagnosed Tuoba Zheng, Emperor Dongling's face could not help but darken, and the Xiliang envoys who rushed over were furious.
"What does this mean, Your Majesty? We came all the way here to discuss an alliance, and you actually poisoned our prince?"
"The general has misunderstood. Your Highness, this is Hehuansan..." The doctors hurriedly explained, but the expressions on their faces were a little embarrassed.
Everyone immediately understood what he meant when they heard this, but the Xiliang envoys didn't buy it, and they immediately started arguing with the civil servants.
The scene was at a stalemate. At this time, Princess Yinghua was brought up and knelt down in front of Emperor Dongling with tears, "Father, it was Princess Jinrong who admired His Highness, so she drugged him, but I don't know why. He'll wander into a hot spring pool by mistake."
She pushed everything to Princess Jinrong, and Yinghua knew that this was her only chance.
With so many pairs of eyes seeing that Tuoba Zheng had offended her and her reputation was damaged, it was even less likely that her father would change his original plan and would definitely use his plan to facilitate this marriage.
Jinrong?
Emperor Dongling narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately understood the clues. He immediately sneered and said, "How did you know that Jin Rong was the one who gave you the medicine?"
She hadn't been in the imperial concubine's palace all the time, so how could she know so much about it in detail?
Emperor Dongling is very aware of Princess Yinghua's attitude towards the marriage. I am afraid that she coerced her imperial sister into doing such a thing, and she will suffer the consequences!
As expected, Yinghua's eyes flashed, "Yes, the maid next to the imperial sister said it!"
Soon, Princess Jinrong, who had changed into a dignified dress, appeared in front of everyone.
"Royal sister, please explain to the envoys that the second prince has been with you all the time." Princess Yinghua's eyes were filled with threats.
Unexpectedly, Princess Jinrong, who had been completely obedient to her these days, was full of doubts, "What does the emperor mean by this? Jinrong has never left the palace, and has never seen the second prince."
"What did you say?!"
How could Princess Yinghua have imagined that Jinrong would have the guts to regret it at this juncture?
She thought she had betrayed herself, could her mother-in-law spare her?
It’s not a dead end in the end!
However, Jin Rong, who was always hesitant when being scolded, still looked at Princess Yinghua frankly, "If the emperor doesn't like His Highness the Second Highness, you can tell the father directly, why do you want to wrong my sister so much? This is throwing Dongling away. The royal face.”
At this moment, Tuoba Zheng, who was sitting on the couch behind the screen, had faintly woken up and heard clearly what Princess Yinghua had just said.
He has seen this kind of method many times, and now he understands that this weak Princess Jinrong was arranged by Yinghua to seduce him!
She didn't want to go back to Xiliang with him at all, but she couldn't disobey her father, so she resorted to such unflattering tactics on herself.
A gloomy smile soon appeared on Tuoba Zheng's face. What kind of mother-in-law did he want? This princess from Dongling was so disrespectful!
It is her blessing that he likes her, yet he still resists her!
Maybe she arranged the almond-smelling rouge on Princess Jinrong's body. This vicious bitch might even want to kill him if she doesn't do it!
Thinking of this, Tuoba Zheng had already planned in his mind how he would torture Yinghua in the future, while Emperor Dongling outside had already scolded everyone.
When things got to this point, it seemed like there was no way it could end.
Emperor Dongling wanted to kill Yinghua. As expected, it was hard to change one's nature. He thought that during this period, his wayward daughter had figured it out and accepted her fate. Unexpectedly, she actually regarded everyone as A fool, playing with the palm of his hand!
"Ahem." At this time, Tuoba Zheng coughed several times, and the envoys gathered around nervously.
I thought their prince would be furious, but Tuoba Zheng actually smiled.
"Princess Yinghua must be too nervous about the upcoming wedding. Your Majesty, don't blame her." A simple sentence resolved all the embarrassment.
He didn't mention anything about Hehuan Powder. He only said that he ate the wrong things and had an old illness, which he needed to soak in hot spring water to relieve. Emperor Dongling understood that although the second prince was barbaric, he was also aware of the overall situation.
"Come here, take the princess down, and don't allow any mistakes before she sets off!"
"Father! No, Yinghua..."
However, before Princess Yinghua could cry, a guard had already stepped forward and knocked her unconscious with a knife.
Emperor Dongling remained calm and exchanged a few words with Tuoba Zheng. The two of them had already reached a consensus.
Concubine Xue's palace was guarded, and the mother and daughter could not even take a step forward. In the deserted forest, Xiao Junlan had already received the letter of help that Concubine Xue had finally sent.
"Save her? Ha."
The usually gentle man had a warm smile on his face, and he slowly crushed the note in his hand.
Because of what happened with Lang Hao before, even though Cen Yurong was dead, the emperor still had a grudge against him, so this time he tried his best to keep a low profile and did not attend the banquet to receive Xiliang because of the loss of his wife.
Unexpectedly, the mother and daughter gave him such a big gift again.
It seemed that they were very dissatisfied with their arrangements. People's hearts are so greedy. They had obviously begged him to rescue Yinghua from Bai Yujing before, and said they would do whatever it took.
He used the method of marriage to save Yinghua's life.
And now, they have messed up the matter and still have the nerve to beg him again!
"Your Majesty, His Highness broke the appointment. It seems he doesn't want to cooperate with us." A man in black appeared silently next to Xiao Junlan, with a cold light in his eyes.
The opportunity that he finally waited for was ruined by Yinghua himself!
Xiao Junlan took a deep breath. The man in black next to him knew that every time his master showed this expression, it meant that he was in a very bad mood.
"Go and prepare a generous dowry for the princess. Just say that it was given to her by the king!"
When Xiao Junlan said this, his tone was extremely calm.
Concubine Xue's palace was soon completely cut off from the outside world, and Dongling's reception of Xiliang in the past two days became extremely smooth.
Three days later.
"Physician Xia, Jin Rong has come to say goodbye to you." A distinguished guest appeared in General Xia's mansion.
Princess Jinrong, disguised as a maid, stood in front of Xia Yunxian with an unprecedented smile of relief on her face.
This was her first time out of the palace. It turned out that it was so lively outside the palace and full of life. It was so different from her past life.
"Is it the eldest prince who helped the princess leave the palace?" He talked all night and till dawn."
Seeing the softness in her eyes, Xia Yunxian asked softly, "Does the princess regret it?"
"No, Jin Rong also wants to thank Doctor Xia. The eldest prince is really a very good person."
Princess Jinrong hurriedly explained, with a hint of girlish shyness on her face.
Doctor Xia gave her a choice. One was to stay in Dongling, and Master Bai promised to save her life. The other was to get close to the eldest prince of Xiliang, win his favor, and follow him to Xiliang.
Princess Jinrong chose the latter almost without hesitation. She didn't want to be a burden to anyone anymore. After contacting the eldest prince, she felt extremely grateful to Xia Yunxian.
There is someone in this world who understands her so well.
They hit it off immediately and cherished each other.
"Jin Rong is just afraid that he is not good enough for him."
