"Toffee Queen!"
Concubine Liu's pupils shook and she raised her head suddenly. She couldn't believe that she heard Li Shanci's voice.
But when Li Shanci actually knelt in front of her, she was completely shocked: Didn't the Nine Princes' Mansion not let Princess Beiliang in? How on earth could she still come in?
"What's wrong with you? If you have anything to say first, don't cry all the time."
Looking at Li Shanci who was lying on her lap and crying, Concubine Liu closed her eyes, her eyebrows showed annoyance, and she pressed her temples.
Li Shanci raised her head and just opened her mouth, but she still couldn't help it. She knelt on the ground, rested her head on Concubine Liu's knees, and cried first as a sign of respect.
Concubine Liu felt that the clothes on her knees were soaked.
She frowned and did not push Li Shanci.
He stared straight ahead and began to be lost in thought.
Crying, crying, crying for a long time.
Only then did Li Shanci open his swollen eyes and, in a hoarse voice, recounted everything that had happened to him in the past few days.
"Taifei, Yun Si didn't keep her word. She's back. She's returned to the capital. What should I do? Taifei, please give me some advice!"
Concubine Liu looked at Li Shanci's face full of tears, endured her annoyance, and said angrily: "Shanci, this..."
'Crack! '
The crisp tea cup was placed on the table by a maid without hesitation. The sound interrupted Mrs. Liu's words.
Concubine Liu frowned tightly, suppressing the anger in her heart and yelled: "You all get out!"
The maid lowered her eyebrows and seemed to be respectful, but she did not have the slightest humility that a maid should have: "Slaves are ordered to serve the concubine and will never leave her."
Li Shanci raised his head and slowly stood up from the ground: "I have something to say to the concubine, you should avoid it."
The maid's words were clear and clear: "Reporting to the princess, if the princess insists that the slaves go out, you can go and tell the prince. After the prince's order, the slaves will go out naturally. Princess, please don't embarrass us slaves."
Concubine Liu was so angry that her cheeks tightened and she slapped the table hard: "You... you! I have already said it, no matter what, there is no need for this!"
This is surveillance, clear surveillance!
The maid didn't move, she still stood upright like a wooden figure.
Li Shanci didn't understand and didn't want to argue. He just said anxiously: "Ms. Tao Fei, don't worry about these servants. Please help Shan Ci come up with ideas. Otherwise, Tao Fei, please go out and see Yun Si." Advise her to leave quickly!”
Concubine Liu wished she could cover Li Shanci's mouth.
These people are Huo Shenzhi's eyes and ears.
Every word and word she said here now would reach his ears.
Now, the concubine finally understood why she gave the order so that Li Shanci could come in.
That was her good son. He specially used Li Shanci to test the knives he arranged to see if they were fast and easy to use.
"Be kind..."
Concubine Liu now gets a headache when she sees Li Shanci crying. She thinks of the nightmare that day, and her body feels cold during the day. She is really heartless.
"I can help you once, but I can't help you every time. You have to rely on yourself for these things. Besides, I am not feeling well, and I don't want to disturb the people outside."
He was a good Tai Chi player, but it was a pity that Li Shanci believed it to be true and could not understand the meaning behind his words.
Naively raised my head, serious suggestion:
"The concubine can't go out, so can you write a letter to Yun Si and drive her away? It's a big matter of marriage, parents' orders, matchmaker's words, in the world, I have never seen anyone so shameless, not even a mother. If you like it, I will rush to post it.”
Concubine Liu reached out helplessly and with a headache, and touched Li Shanci's innocent face.
This kind of person is really not suitable to stand beside Huo Shenzhi, let alone be a member of the turbulent royal family.
If she could be allowed to die outside before the marriage, it would be considered as a solution to Emperor Wu Zong's plan...
Li Shanci knelt down in front of Concubine Liu, raising her head and looking at Concubine Liu's frown.
Little did she know that the person in front of her, as her brother said, had already had murderous intentions towards her.
"Toffee Queen, I have never met my queen mother. You love and care about me as much as my queen mother. Please help me this time, for the last time."
Two words made Mrs. Liu's tense hands tremble and gradually soften.
In the dark eyes, there were a few soft lights.
"Shanci, go and break the engagement."
Li Shanci was stunned, and several small animal whimpers came out from his throat.
"Toffee, why don't you help me? What's going on, what's going on!"
Concubine Liu closed her eyes, her chest heaving violently.
"You said that you regard me as your mother-in-law. If you were my daughter, I would advise you the same way. Besides, the Ninth Prince is not suitable for you."
Li Shanci stood up slowly, raised his hand, and pointed at Concubine Liu: "Concubine Liu, that's not what you said when you asked me to cry and make trouble in front of Emperor Wu Zong. I thought Concubine Liu was different from others. , I didn’t expect that you would kick me away as soon as you finished using me!”
Concubine Liu looked at Li Shanci who ran out angrily and shook her head helplessly:
"In this world, no one will be nice to anyone without any reason. The relationship between people is essentially an exchange of interests."
Even Li Shanci doesn't understand this. From now on, Li Shanci will definitely become Huo Shenzhi's biggest flaw.
If you want her to die, you have to do it now.
However, Concubine Liu felt that she was no longer as fierce and decisive as before in the palace. After eating fast and chanting Buddha for a long time, her heart softened.
After a while, the concubine withdrew her eyes and looked at the maid waiting beside her: "Is that enough?"
No one talked to her, and no one came to this small courtyard again.
The maid just lowered her head and retreated silently.
The news was quickly conveyed to Huo Shenzhi through Huo Ying: "The concubine will no longer care about these matters, and the master can rest assured. From now on, the Princess of Beiliang will no longer be allowed to enter the gate of the Ninth Prince's Mansion."
Huo Shenzhi compiled a military intelligence report: "Where is the letter sent to Beiliang?"
"Beiliang and Dazhou are far apart, and they are secret letters. It takes time to come and go... However, Doctor Yun entered the city, and she did not leave."
When Huo Ying said the second half of the sentence, he kept looking at his master's expression.
It's just that Huo Shenzhi's face is indifferent and his emotions are difficult to detect.
The study just became quiet.
In front of the book desk, the tea mist was thick, blurring the man's face, making it difficult to identify all the emotions and anger.
Huo Ying couldn't figure out what his master meant. He hesitated and spoke again: "Master lost a lot of blood earlier. Dr. Yun is so good at it. Why don't you come and take a look?"
"No need."
In the sea of light pouring in from the window, Huo Shenzhi lowered his eyes and tapped his fingertips on the bright yellow imperial edict.
This is the marriage edict issued by Emperor Wu Zong, between him and the Princess of Beiliang.
