At this moment,? A bird landed outside the window, and called twice in a strange tone, as if someone was muttering. Zhong Lixuan was taken aback. When he opened the window, he saw a mynah tilting his head and looking at him .

Recognizing that this starling was trained by Chuci, Zhong Lixuan was overjoyed, and he waved his hand. The starling didn't fly over, but stretched his neck and barked twice.

"Nothing to worry about, just wait and see what happens!"

After calling myna, he straightened his feathers, flapped his wings and flew in another direction.

Zhong Lixuan knew that it was Chu Ci who had found out about him and asked the starlings to pass on the message. Holding a food box, he put the food box down, and said in a deep voice, "Eat."

Zhong Lixuan didn’t dare to eat the meals brought by Dongfang Ya’s subordinates? He still remembered Chu Ci’s saying that the Dongfang clan could use drugs to control the guards. Said: "The food here is not to my taste,? I want to go home to eat,? Report to my family that I am safe."

The masked man was slightly displeased when he heard the words: "They are not your family members. For safety reasons, you can't leave this courtyard again. If you want to walk in the temple, you can, and I will accompany you to protect you."

Zhong Lixuan's expression didn't change when he heard the words. After knowing that it was Dongfang Ya who had brought him back, he was ready to be put under house arrest. Seeing this, he didn't argue and walked out of the courtyard: "Then I'll go shopping around. Well, if you want to follow, just follow."

The masked man didn't stop him, and Zhong Lixuan went all the way to the place where the saint had his fast, and ate porridge with other monks. The masked man kept silent outside, and when Zhong Lixuan returned to the room, he said: "You You don't have to, you are her child, and I won't harm you."

"Well, I'm going to rest, you should watch it carefully." Zhong Lixuan looked cold, he would never eat the food that Dongfang Ya and his subordinates sent, and he would not believe a word the other party said, shut it down I went to bed by the window and began to close my eyes and meditate.

The masked man stood guard outside the door for a long time, until night fell, when the nurse who bandaged the wound appeared and dragged the masked man away.

After leaving the courtyard, the nanny touched her stinging neck and said as she walked: "Sure enough, it is the son of that slut servant. The bastard is not a good thing either, I should have been more ruthless at the beginning! Why do you still guard him, when that lowly servant girl committed suicide, she said that she would cut you into pieces!"

Hearing this, the masked man suddenly turned around and raised his hand to grab the nanny's arm, his voice furious: "Ah Ruo, didn't you say you would treat her child well, that's why the princess and I handed over this child to you. tortured him?"

Tears welled up in Ah Ruo's eyes: "I just can't see how this bastard is alive. If you have the ability, you kill me! Back then, you were stabbed in the chest by that lowly maid and almost died. It was I who tried my best to kill you Rescue me, I have been with you for so many years, why do you only remember that bitch? I think you have also been fascinated by that fox spirit, even the princess dared to disobey!"

"Stop talking!" The masked man's voice was sullen, and just as the branches were swinging, he took a deep breath, dragged Ah Ruo to another courtyard, and said in a deep voice, "It was me and the princess who ruined the spirit for the great cause. Er, Linger should hate me, I am sorry for her. Now that Linger has gone, I should take it as atonement for protecting his son."

Ah Ruo didn't dare to say: "Atonement? You still want to protect his son? You know that everything belongs to the little emperor, but thanks to the little emperor calling you the sub-father, you actually want to do it for a cheap, human son." With a son like this, where do you put the little emperor?"

The masked man turned around and strode away: "Of course I will be loyal to the little emperor, but he is already... the princess is kind, if he can really treat Xiaoxuan as his own son, it is not impossible."

Ah Ruo is different from the person in front of her, she is also a woman, she has long seen Dongfang Ya's true thoughts, and she was reminded by Dongfang Ya when she tortured Huangfurui back then, and she even added secret medicine to Zhong Lixuan's meals, all for the sake of Let Zhong Lixuan become more stupid, but Zhonglixuan has a lot of life, but he didn't become a fool.

Ah Ruo sneered and said: "In the end, you still think about that lowly maid, she has such a face, and she was exiled in the land of fireworks. Are you from that place, why are you pretending to be affectionate now..." The masked man raised his hand and slapped A Ruo's face fiercely, and said unbearably: "Shut up!"

Ah Ruo was beaten until blood oozes from the corner of her mouth, and her expression became more and more crazy: "You beat me, my lord, I have served you since childhood, and you said you would marry me back then, but now you beat me because of that slut! You were the one who proposed to seduce Huangfu Ling, and you were the one who stunned her and sent her to Huangfu Zhengzheng's bed. After she gave birth to a child, you took the child and gave it to the princess. She came to find out the truth, and you lied to her. The idea of ​​selling in a brothel is completely broken, but now you blame me! My lord, you are so cruel!"

"Stop it!" The masked man was in more pain.

Ah Ruo has already been driven crazy. She not only hates Huangfuling who took away the hearts and minds in front of her, but also hates Huangfuling's son, and even more hates the man in front of her who easily changed his mind and abandoned her: "You don't feel ashamed of the princess, you are right. The ancestors were ashamed? If it wasn't for your protection, how could the little emperor become a useless person? Now you only care about that bastard, and don't care about the little emperor. Sir, do you remember our plan to restore the royal family all these years? ? That lowly maid's son is just the little emperor's substitute, he was born to die for the little emperor!"

The masked man was silent.

Because of Zhong Lixuan's appearance, the two of them had all the knots for many years. After arguing for a while, they almost tore their faces. When they reported to Dongfang Ya the next day, their expressions were unnatural, and Dongfang Ya knew it when they saw each other.

She sighed, and said softly to the masked man: "Zhong Lihe, Ah Ruo is devoted to you, so don't treat Ah Ruo Cai badly."

Ah Ruo's expression became even more angry when he heard the words, with teardrops in his eyes, he just lowered his head stubbornly to wipe away the tears, and then listened to Dongfang Ya said: "Zhonglihe is affectionate, and treating Huangfuling differently from her son is what men want." Because, if he can let go of old feelings without any scruples, Ah Ruo, you should be cold-hearted."

Zhong Lihe glanced at Dongfang Ya gratefully after hearing the words: "Thank you, Princess."

Thinking of Huangfu Ling's mother and son, Ah Ruo felt more and more uncomfortable, couldn't bear it any longer, covered his face and cried and left the wing room, Dongfang Ya gave a wink, and Zhong Lihe chased A Ruo away.

After the two left, Dongfang Ya sneered and said, "Idiot."

But as far as she is concerned, such a stupid man and woman are easier to control.

Dongfang Ya is born with the ability to manipulate people's emotions. This is an innate talent. Back then, A Ruo and Zhong Lihe had a secret love affair. The couple left and went to live a quiet life.

How could Dongfang Ya tolerate these two people like this, so she only resorted to tricks to lure Zhong Lihe and Huangfu Ling to meet twice. Huangfu Lingsheng is so beautiful and innocent, even Zhongli He who has a sweetheart can't help it. To resist, Dongfang Ya took the opportunity to induce Zhonglihe to seduce Huangfuling——

A pair of lovers who were childhood sweethearts have been separated from each other since then, and they are no longer like childhood sweethearts.

The two had always hated each other, but they had no intention of leaving, and only served her wholeheartedly. Dongfang Ya's many plans and arrangements over the years were all completed by the two of them leading their subordinates.

Not long after the two left, Zhong Lixuan came in from the door and said to Dongfang Ya: "You said that you want to take me to see the emperor and teach me to be a prince, so let's go now, while Huangfu Rui is looking for his slave boy Concubine, we can use a trick to get rid of the salary."

Dongfang Ya held the teacup with both hands when she heard the words, she took a deep breath, smiled softly, and looked at Zhong Lixuan: "Now it's really feasible to seize the opportunity to draw the bottom line."

"Then let's go." Zhong Lixuan didn't want to play a mother-child relationship with Dongfang Ya, and made no secret of his impatience.

Dongfang Ya stepped forward and straightened Zhong Lixuan's collar: "Good boy, you haven't called me mother yet."

Zhong Lixuan raised his hand to cover his mouth: "Please forgive me, nanny... When I was a child, I was treated very harshly, but now I feel like throwing up when I mention those two words, even if I think about it, I feel uncomfortable, and I can't say those two words."

Dongfang Ya: "..."

She ordered her nanny to treat Zhong Lixuan when she was a child like a taming animal, but she didn't expect the training to have such an effect. Dongfang Ya wanted to pretend to love her son's mother, so she could only say with a stiff face: "Since my son is not feeling well, I feel sorry for my mother." , then stop calling, from now on our mother and son will be called you and me."

Just when Ah Ruo finished crying, he came in with a water basin.

Zhonglixuan deliberately tested Dongfang Yadao again: "You said I was the prince, but why didn't you name me Huangfuxuan instead of Zhonglixuan? Could it be that you and Zhonglihe also have an affair, and if you can't give him a son, use me Or instead of expressing lovesickness?"

Dongfang Yawan never expected to hear such a passage from Zhong Lixuan's mouth. Hearing the words, his complexion changed drastically, and he raised his hand and slapped Zhong Lixuan: "Shut up! I'm your mother, why did you slander me so much in front of me?" Me and Zhong Lihe?"

Zhong Lixuan dodged swiftly, glanced at A Ruo who was standing stiffly on the spot, and said expressionlessly: "Didn't you say in front of your son that you love to seduce people the most, and what did you say that you seduced your brother-in-law and gave birth to a son?" I heard from the sisters in Qinlou that the problem of seducing people, whether male or female, can never be cured, and Zhong Lihe treats you so differently, obviously you seduced him too, I'm not wrong!"

Dongfangya was shocked when she saw Ah Ruo looking up at her expressionlessly, and hurriedly explained: "Silly boy, I named you like this to protect you, it was Mr. Zhonglihe who saved our mother and son back then. "

Zhong Lixuan shook his head: "In the past, I heard from old beggars that there was a widow in the village whose husband died, and she liked to hook up with Mr. Qiao Lang. Is it the same for you?"

Dongfang Ya was so arranged face-to-face, she was so angry that she almost failed, she stared at Zhong Lixuan for a while, then covered her face and cried: "Where did you learn these mistakes, you child, you are going to die of anger! "

Zhong Lixuan was disgusted by Dongfang Ya's demeanor, and was intentionally provocative. Seeing Dongfang Ya cry, he thought of Tong Yubai, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. , as long as you don’t annoy people like the prince’s male concubine and get dismissed. When you get older, you understand the truth, some people can’t be messed with.”

Dongfang Ya heard the words and almost fainted, she even forgot to pretend to cry, she just said with trembling fingers: "Go out, Ah Ruo, take him out!"

After Zhonglixuan was sent back, she was put under house arrest. Dongfang Ya called Zhonglihe and Aruo with a cold face, and brought them in. She slowly said, "Did you say something to that kid, or did you reveal something? What tone?"

What Zhong Lixuan just said was heart-wrenching. She was so angry that she vomited blood at the time, but later she realized something was wrong. It was clear that the kid had learned the truth to provoke her on purpose!

Zhong Lihe and A Ruo were puzzled when they heard the words, A Ruo glanced at Dongfang Ya, then at Zhong Lihe, bowed his head and said in a low voice: "I didn't say anything, if I wanted to say something, I would have said it clearly back then. There is no need to keep that bastard for ten years and still be stabbed by him."

Zhong Lihe was even more puzzled, he asked with concern: "Princess, what happened?"

How could Dongfang Ya tell the truth about Zhong Lixuan poking her heart, she gave A Ruo a warning look, and then said weakly: "Just thinking about my son makes me feel anxious, that bastard Huangfurui dares to do this to my son, I will He must be shredded into thousands of pieces!"

Dongfang Ya felt relieved, if Zhong Lixuan didn't know the truth, it would appear that the boy was raised and abandoned, and that's why he behaved wildly and willfully.

After finishing speaking, she retreated from A Ruo, and discussed the follow-up with Zhong Lihe.

Seeing this, Zhong Lihe understood, and said: "Princess, what you mean is that in order to prevent the night from having more dreams, we should speed up our plan?"

"Exactly, I pretended to be Huangfu Ling as soon as possible and sent Zhonglixuan to meet Huangfuping." Dongfangya thought of Tong Yubai's current situation and Zhonglixuan's words, and felt that she could no longer bear it. She feigned death and hibernated for more than ten years. Sending her son to become emperor, but at the critical moment, Tong Yubai was castrated, and Dongfangya no longer dared to plan slowly as before.

As if an invisible hand was disrupting her plan, Dongfang Ya sensed the crisis, so she stepped forward to bring Zhong Lixuan back in advance, and started follow-up actions.

Zhong Lihe heard the words and hurriedly said: "Princess, absolutely not, you put yourself in danger, what if Huangfuping finds out the clues?"

Dongfang Ya said confidently: "It's okay, I have my own countermeasures."

She seduced Huangfu Ping back then for a big plan, if there hadn't been something wrong with Huangfu Ling that forced the plan to be advanced, she would have succeeded long ago.

However, Huangfu was stubborn and staunch in spirit, and made a fuss in a desperate manner. She had to feign death to get away, but by accident, Huangfuping became more and more obsessed with her. Dongfang Yake would not miss any chance, she immediately decided to use Huangfuping's hand to send him back to the emperor.

In this way, Huangfu Ping, the traitor, and Huangfu Rui could be separated, and when the uncle and nephew were fighting each other, she ordered her subordinates to deal with it and pick up Zhong Lixuan.At that time, those two people will feel that Zhonglixuan is the threat, and the three of them will fight each other. After the fight has seriously injured the vitality of Huangfu's family, she will use Zhonglixuan's hand to sneak into the palace and kill Huangfu Zhengzheng. With the identity of the Qing emperor, and the stability of Chao Gang's succession to the Datong, her plan will be successful in this way.

When Zhong Lixuan has the reputation of killing his father, the courtiers will use him to vent their anger, and no one will care about Tong Yubai's blood from the Dongfang family. Her son can only be the Mingjun that everyone expects.

As for Zhong Lixuan's little emotions and pettiness, Dongfang Ya didn't care, she took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Zhong Lihe: "Mix the medicine powder into Zhong Lixuan's meals and tea every day, and stare at him to eat."

Zhong Lihe took the medicine bottle and said respectfully: "Yes, princess."

------

Under the operation of Dongfang Yaji people, after more than a month, a news came from the capital.

In the early years, the emperor's son who had been living among the people was found by the loyal king. After the blood test proved his identity, the emperor loved the recovered son very much, and divided the prince's territory into his own son. The prince's house is kind-hearted, and specially moved out a mansion for the brother who came back, and sent hundreds of maids and attendants, the new prince's mansion was crowded with people for a while.

Many nobles in the capital went to see the new prince, but the other party was arrogant and turned away all the nobles, and only welcomed Princess Qingwu and He Xuanji, who were at odds with the crown prince, into the old mansion of the crown prince. , which disappointed a group of people.

As soon as he was found, he began to form cliques to fight against the crown prince. It seems that the recovered prince has been living among the people for too long, and has no city at all, so he will definitely not be the crown prince's opponent.

Everyone who originally wanted to enter the mansion to ask to see the new prince retreated.

Inside Zhonglixuan's mansion, Princess Qingwu saw her freshly baked brother, and couldn't resist raising her hand to pinch Zhonglixuan's cheek: "Beauty brother, are you really my brother?"

Zhong Lixuan blocked Princess Qingwu's hand, and he was a little uncomfortable with the sudden change of identity. The princess who was unattainable two months ago was actually his younger sister. Not to mention that Qingwu didn't believe it, he was a little confused: "Father Canonized by the emperor himself, it is guaranteed to be fake."

Qingwu was very disappointed: "Hey, why are you my brother? I still want you to fulfill the agreement. Before I helped you save Chu Ci, you said you would promise me a condition, but now it seems that it will not work."

He Xuanji's complexion changed slightly upon hearing this.

Zhong Lixuan didn't forget about this incident, but Princess Qingwu was angered by Huangfu Rui that day, and met the emperor back to the palace. She never had a chance to come to him, and he didn't have time to ask what the other party wanted him to do. , Zhong Lixuan said: "I mean what I say, I can't lie to you just because you are my sister, I will definitely agree to whatever you want me to do."

"Brother beauty really means what he says?" Princess Qingwu said happily.

"Cough, cough, cough." He Xuanji looked at Qingwu, "You are brother and sister, dear."

Seeing the strange expression on He Xuanji's face, Zhong Lixuan remembered that Ri Muyun seemed to be the same that day, and he became more curious: "What happened to my brothers and sisters?"

Princess Qingwu smiled and said: "Yeah, what's the matter with my brothers and sisters, isn't it just drawing some pictures of beauties, why do you all look like I am going to do something bad? What I drew is not a picture of avoiding fire!"

"...beauty picture?" Zhong Lixuan was taken aback, completely unexpected that Qingwu would make such a request.

He Xuanji covered her face: "Haven't you seen it, this girl is lustful, and when she sees a good-looking man and woman, she has to get close to her, and she wants to paint for him, oh, those pictures of beauties in Qinlou are all this girl's leisure time Nothing to draw. These days she likes to go to the piano tower very much, I accompanied her there a few times, there are rumors everywhere in the capital that I am weak and made for sex."

Zhong Lixuan was speechless, and seeing Princess Qingwu looking over eagerly, he hesitated: "Your painting is good, should you sell it to Chuci?"

Princess Qingwu blinked: "Yeah, I like to draw beauties, as soon as I finish the painting, I don't have the habit of collecting paintings. Chuci said that my paintings are good, and I will pay a lot of money to buy them, so I gave him the finished paintings. !"

Zhong Lixuan touched the tips of his ears, and a tinge of red appeared on his face: "Well, you can draw as much as you want, but there is only one request, the same as before, this painting can only be given to Chu Ci."

"Understood!" Princess Qingwu said with a smile. After discussing to come to Zhonglixuan's mansion to paint in the past few days, she put down the gift and left with He Xuanji.

After getting out of the mansion and boarding the carriage, Princess Qingwu put away the smile on her face, and sighed, "I thought that brother Zhongli and Chuci would have a happy ending if they were in love with each other, so why is he my brother? What a loving couple. I'm afraid I'm going to be beaten with a stick."

Her father didn't like men hanging out with men the most. Even the male concubine Huangfu Rui had just brought into the mansion was sent out under the order of the emperor, but the other party disappeared after being sent out, and the concubine Wei Qingrong who was involved Under house arrest, Qing Wu and He Xuanji also suffered.

Qingwu didn't believe that Tong Yubai was missing, she thought it was just the prince's way to punish them.

But at this juncture, Zhong Lixuan became the prince, so I'm afraid he has to draw a clear line with Chu Ci immediately to ensure safety.

He Xuanji looked at Qingwu, thinking of what the emperor called him to say a few days ago, she frowned: "Take care of yourself first, if you really annoy someone, and you are sent to Donghu to get married by an imperial decree, what should you do?"

Qing Wu ate melon seeds and said, "Go to Donghu to get married? How is it possible? I'm only 14 years old. Although the father is indeed in a daze, he has a good face and won't take the initiative to send his face to Donghu for them to trample on him, right? It is said that the new king loves his concubine very much, so he will definitely not ask the princess to marry him."

He Xuanji lowered his eyes: "It is said that the new King Khan took the throne from his younger brother. Now that the little prince has returned to Donghu, he has taken the initiative to ask His Majesty to marry the princess. He wants to take advantage of Yuan Xu's power to regain the Khan throne. As a tribute, His Majesty will not be tempted."

Hearing what He Xuanji said, Qingwu was taken aback for a moment, she raised her hand to pinch the dangling tassel decoration in the carriage, and said softly: "You got the news? So, Father is going to send me to be married?"

"Your Majesty didn't make it clear, but he already has this intention. Huangfu Rui is facilitating this matter. When His Majesty came back from the palace, it was your good brother who took the initiative to raise this matter. We annoyed him before, and he must be a penny-pincher. I want to send you to be married." He Xuanji looked at the young princess and sighed, "If that day really comes, what should you do?"

Qingwu was calmer than He Xuanji when she heard the bad news. She sneered: "What should I do? Of course, I should kill Huangfu Rui first. Anyway, there is still a brother now. Where did that black-hearted bastard come from?" go."
