Adore Trick of Beauty

Xia Lan was startled by her: "Who are you talking about?"

Nie Wushuang suppressed the shock in her heart and lowered her eyes: "It's nothing. I was confused and recognized the wrong person just now." She paused: "Go and see Prince Rui. When will he be free? I have something to see him."

Xia Lan didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly retreated to follow her instructions.

Nie Wushuang washed himself and rested in the tent. This autumn hunting, Yang Zhi did not come with him, but Deshun did. Nie Wushuang called him into the tent, glanced at his fat and happy face, and said calmly: "Just now, I saw a person behind the palace attendants. Go and check for me. This is the imperial tent camp. Aren’t there a few more distinguished guests?”

Deshun asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, I have to give you the right one. Otherwise, there are hundreds and thousands of tents in this camp. How can I find slaves?"

Nie Wushuang ordered him to stretch out his hand and make a few strokes: "Go ahead and let me know directly if you find it. Don't reveal anything to others!"

Deshun took the order, and Nie Wushuang watched him disappear at the entrance of the tent, then closed his eyes tiredly.

…

In the middle of the night, in the imperial tent.

Xiao Fengming was reading urgent reports from various places. He wrote quickly with the ink pen in his hand. After a while, most of the large pile of official documents had been processed. The sound of footsteps could be heard outside the tent. Eunuch Lin stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, we are ready. The distinguished guests have also arrived."

Xiao Fengming kept writing in ink, and after a long while he said: "There's no rush."

Eunuch Lin naturally knew that he was in no hurry, so he quietly stood aside and served the pen and ink tea. By the time Xiao Fengming finished reading the report, half an hour had passed.

Xiao Fengming started writing and breathed a sigh of relief: "Call the fifth brother as well. He has been in Qidi for a long time and is more familiar with some things than I am."

Eunuch Lin smiled and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Rui is already over there, just waiting for the emperor to pass."

Xiao Fengming was slightly surprised: "This time he followed the rules. He and that guy won't fight again?"

Eunuch Lin knew that the emperor was talking about that, so he wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so he could only endure it and said angrily: "His Royal Highness Prince Rui is a man of general knowledge, so he will not neglect an honored guest."

Xiao Fengming smiled, put on his cloak, and walked out of the imperial tent.

It's very cold at night on the grassland. It's late autumn now, but here you can feel the chill of winter. Xiao Fengqing sat by the bonfire, looking at the thin figure wrapped like a ball of rice dumplings opposite.

He coughed loudly and arched his back, as if he was very uncomfortable. Xiao Fengqing threw a piece of wood into the bonfire, a faint sneer escaped from her thin lips.

People say: Not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns.

They hadn't seen each other for only a few months, but Gu Qinghong was already so thin and sickly. The god-like handsomeness of the past was gone, and there was even a hint of gray on his temples. It seems that under the reputation of "the first prime minister of Qi", he almost collapsed under the heavy pressure.

"Does Prime Minister Gu want to send a message to the imperial doctor?" Xiao Fengqing said with a smile.

"No need..." Gu Qinghong raised his face, his snow-white cheeks showed two abnormal blushes, his handsome eyes were as bright as before, and his words were also polite: "Thank you, His Highness Prince Rui, for your concern."

Xiao Fengqing sneered: "You should know that you don't have much chance of winning this time."

Gu Qinghong coughed and his voice was hoarse: "I have prepared for this. But after all, the two countries are closely related. Cooperation will be beneficial, and separation will be greatly disadvantageous. Your emperor is wise and will definitely weigh the pros and cons and make a truly correct decision."

Xiao Fengqing sneered mockingly and stopped talking.

The cold wind on the grassland whistled by, and the two of them remained silent for a long time. The guard standing in the distance brought a woman: "Your Highness, she must come..."

Xiao Fengqing looked at the woman with a coarse Jing hairpin and a delicate face. As soon as she came, she took out the medicine jar from the basket and handed it to Gu Qinghong: "Sir, the medicine is ready."

Gu Qinghong took it and drank it in one breath. He gradually calmed down and stopped coughing. Xiao Fengqing looked amused and said with a joking smile: "Is this girl the concubine you recently took? She's not bad looking."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinghong was uncharacteristically retorted coldly: "She is not my concubine."

The woman was not restrained and glared at Xiao Fengqing: "No nonsense!"

Xiao Fengqing didn't take it seriously when the two scolded her. Instead, she laughed and said, "No, it's not. Why should you be so serious?" He turned to the woman and said, "Step back, this is not your place to get involved."

Gu Qinghong turned his eyes and said to her: "Miss Ah Li, you go back to the tent first."

Ah Li glared at Xiao Fengqing angrily: "Young master, he clearly has no good intentions. Why do you come here to talk about anything even though he knows you are sick? I see that there is nothing to talk about. He is just playing tricks on you!"

When Gu Qinghong heard this, a wry smile overflowed from his lips. Even Ah Li could see Xiao Fengqing's arrogance and casual attitude. He had come all this way and came to borrow troops even though he was sick, so he might really be in vain, but he had to give it a try after all, and if he didn't...

His face turned pale and he coughed violently again. Ah Li wanted to step forward to help him. He waved his hand: "Back off!" Ah Li then stepped back angrily. It was quiet again around the campfire, so quiet that you could hear the flickering of candles in the fire and the heavy breathing of Gu Qinghong's illness.

The moon gradually turned to the west, and the wind became stronger and stronger. Gu Qinghong's eyes gradually showed disappointment: if he waits any longer, I'm afraid Xiao Fengming will never come again.

At this time, Xiao Fengqing suddenly said: "Were you the one who committed the assassination in the Qiu Shou forest?"

Gu Qinghong was startled, and then said calmly: "No."

"really not

you? Xiao Fengqing sneered in disbelief: "If it weren't for you, why would those people kill Nie Wushuang?" "

Hearing this, Gu Qinghong raised his head, with a hint of surprise in his eyes after learning the news: "Is she the assassin who wants to kill?" His eyes changed uncertainly, and after a long time he said slowly: "It's not me anyway."

When he wanted to kill her, he should have done it long ago, and this time it was even more impossible to do it at this juncture of borrowing troops. Seeing his expression, Xiao Fengqing guessed that he might not be the one behind the scenes, but she still said rudely: "There are so many rumors that the emperor favors Nie, but you people in Qi finally think that she is a disaster. , I want to get along quickly. It’s not unfair to you.”
