After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.
Chapter 358 The scheming Emperor Dongling
The man who looked like a guard was devouring his food. His back was to the two of them. The weak candlelight flickered, and his figure suddenly grew larger and smaller.
"Can't you tell who it is?" Su Qingcheng whispered.
"Don't you think the voice is familiar?"
As soon as Ye Tantai finished speaking, another person in the woodshed said: "Pinglang, you are too willful. How can you lie to others about life and death matters?"
Su Qingcheng's eyes flashed. She had only heard this woman's voice not long ago. It was so majestic and majestic at that time, but now it sounded a little more charming.
"Is this all you worry about? The third and fourth babies were born in ten months of your pregnancy. Aren't you angry that I lied to them like this?"
At this time, the identity of the two people in the woodshed was clear. The man who looked like a guard was Emperor Dong Ling who sounded the death knell and announced his death.
The other person is the imperial concubine who suppressed the seventh prince with her momentum outside the main hall today.
"What's there to be angry about? It's their blessing that Pinglang is willing to give them a test. If they can't meet Pinglang's requirements, just be out." The imperial concubine was like a little woman in front of Emperor Dong Ling, and she spoke with Delicate taste.
Su Qingcheng was a little surprised. Her original impression of the Imperial Concubine was not very good. She thought she would be the kind of person who puts fame and wealth first, but she didn't expect that she could say such open-minded words. I just don't know how much. true and false.
"Among my many sons, only the third and fourth sons are the most outstanding in terms of both civil and military skills. It's you who taught me well." Emperor Dong Ling was still chewing something in his mouth, sounding a little unclear.
"It's not my concubine's credit. The third and fourth sons have always been taught by Hirang himself. Princess Xiping, the little girl, has been raised by my concubine since she was a child. Look at her character. Who dares to marry her in Haojing City. "The imperial concubine said. Judging from the shadow, she was still picking up food for the man in front of her.
The conversation between the two of them was no different from that of an ordinary couple chatting about home affairs and their children, but who would have thought that the people inside were Emperor Dongling and Concubine Dongling.
"Princess Xiping, is she the Thirteenth Princess, right?" Outside the woodshed, Su Qingcheng also discussed with Ye Tantai in a low voice.
"Yes, she is the biological sister of brothers Ouyang Yu and Yi. She is only ten years old this year." Ye Tantai said.
"It seems that Emperor Dong Ling is really pretending..." Su Qingcheng said lightly, thinking about the various ways he would test the third and fourth princes.
"But why did Ping Lang choose today? Today is the wedding of Princess Nan'an and Prince Yu Nan." The imperial concubine said suspiciously.
"The King of Yu Nan, Dong Ling is too arrogant when he comes. I heard that he gave ninety-nine boxes of gifts to Princess Nan'an. This will make me lose the support of the people." Emperor Dong Ling said.
"I see," the imperial concubine subconsciously glanced at the window, "it's really the best of both worlds."
The two people who heard all this clearly understood that Ye Tantai's identity had a great impact on Dong Ling. Perhaps Emperor Dong Ling did not want to test the two princes by pretending to die at first.
Ye Tantai's eyes darkened, not knowing what he was thinking.
I only heard the imperial concubine saying in confusion: "Why is it so cold in this woodshed? Hiraji, you eat first while I go and close the window."
Su Qingcheng immediately turned around to look at Ye Tantai. The man reacted quickly and hugged her and jumped up the tree. In the blink of an eye, the imperial concubine had arrived at the window.
"It's strange, I heard something sound just now," the imperial concubine didn't close the window for a long time. She looked out the window and didn't know who she was saying to, "It's late at night, go to bed early."
"Aren't you cold? Maybe it's the wind blowing." Emperor Dong Ling didn't notice anything unusual about her and said nonchalantly.
The imperial concubine glanced at the tree seemingly carelessly, and Su Qingcheng was so frightened that she dared not come out, and then closed the window.
At this point, the voices of the two people talking inside could no longer be heard clearly.
Su Qingcheng frowned slightly. She always felt that the imperial concubine seemed to know about their existence from the beginning, and that those words were deliberately made for them to hear...
The window was closed because the words that followed could not be heard, and the words before closing the window were a warning.
Obviously Ye Tantai also realized this, his eyes dimmed and he said: "Let's go, it seems that we can't hear anything from behind."
The two returned to the palace wall of Baihe Pavilion. Ye Tantai's expression did not change much, nor did he show any shock.
"Have you known this for a long time?" Su Qingcheng couldn't help but ask.
Ye Tantai naturally knew when she was talking about, and said: "It's just a guess. I just thought it was such a coincidence that something happened on my wedding day."
Su Qingcheng suddenly remembered that when she and Ye Tantai came out of the princess mansion, there did not seem to be so many gift boxes behind the welcoming team at the door, which meant that he might have guessed that the wedding banquet would not happen.
An unknown fire suddenly rose in her heart. It was clearly stated that there would be no more secrets between the two of them, which made her look forward to it...
"No wonder the prince has a set of regular clothes in his carriage. It turns out that he had already guessed that there would be an accident at today's wedding banquet. The box for the wedding reception must also be empty." There was some resentment in her tone unconsciously, "Your Majesty is really He is extremely intelligent and can predict the future, I admire him."
The man heard something was wrong with the woman, turned her body to face him, and explained with a smile: "The regular clothes in the carriage are always prepared, and the boxes for the wedding are also real things, but only half of them came." Come, the other half is in the palace. I made a miscalculation and the ninety-nine betrothal gifts will block the water in Haojing."
Seeing that the woman's expression softened slightly, Ye Tantai pinched her face affectionately, feeling very happy: "I couldn't be more sincere in wanting to marry you. If it hadn't been for this incident, you and I would have been together now... …”
He deliberately prolonged the ending, and the unfinished words added a bit of ambiguity.
He explained so clearly that Su Qingcheng relaxed quickly before she was completely aroused.
"Don't you think the imperial concubine did it on purpose?" She was no longer angry and came back to discuss the matter with Ye Tantai.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that what the concubine had just said and the action of closing the window were all hints to the two of them.
"It doesn't matter whether it is intentional or not. Our interests do not conflict, so we can let it develop naturally." Ye Tantai said.
He seemed to be calm and calm no matter what happened. Even if he was used by the imperial concubine, as long as he could achieve his goal and there was no loss to himself, it didn't matter to him.
Su Qingcheng had been by his side for so many days and learned a lot from him. She nodded and said, "What she wants is for her son to ascend the throne, whether it is Ouyang Yu or Ouyang Yi."
"That's right," Ye Tantai confirmed, "What she wants to tell us is that the emperor is going to start testing them, so let us help."
