Chapter 1498: Marriage (3)
Behind the desk, the eldest Princess, who was wearing a simple and elegant long dress, unfolded the note with her slender fingers.
There were two things written on the note:
One, under the push of Xu Qi ‘an, the Gu tribe formed an alliance with Da Feng and sent troops to help Qingzhou.
Two, Zhao Shou had personally sent a Memorial to Qingzhou.
Regarding the first piece of information, huaiqing’s heart did not waver at all, because he already knew.
However, she took a long time to digest the second message.
The light at the door dimmed. A Palace maid stood outside the study and said softly, ”
“Eldest Princess, the flame Prince is here.”
Huaiqing put the paper into his sleeve, stood up, and led the palace maid to the inner hall.
In the inner hall, Prince Yan was dressed in a purple robe and a Jade belt. He was luxurious and held a cup of tea in his hand. His temperament was calm.
“Fourth brother, why are you so free to come to Dexin court?”
Huaiqing said indifferently.
After Emperor Yongxing ascended the throne, he “drove” his brothers out of the palace, but his unmarried sister could still stay in the palace.
The Prince would not enter the palace for no reason.
Yan Prince waved the palace maids away and said in a deep voice, ”
I heard that Xu Qi ‘an has formed an alliance with the Gu clan. He invited the elite of the Gu clan to help Qingzhou at a very low price.
Huaiqing coldly replied,
“This is a good thing.”
Yan Prince nodded, ”
“It’s indeed a good thing. To me, it’s not a good thing, but it’s not a bad thing either. At most, I’ll just wait for another opportunity. I’ve come today for another matter.”
“Fourth brother, please speak.”
The flame Imperial Prince said in a deep voice,
“Today, Zhao Shou entered the palace. The supervisor has been suppressing the Yun Lu Institute for two hundred years, and Zhao Shou has only entered the palace twice in his life. The first time was to force Imperial father to issue a self-admonishing edict, and the second time was this time.
“What does huaiqing think you mean by this?”
The last time he entered the palace, it was pardonable, but this time, he was only going to give a Memorial?
Huaiqing raised his hand, causing his wide sleeve to slide down slightly so as not to hinder her from picking up the tea. He slowly took a sip and said indifferently,
“Fourth brother must have some guesses.”
The flame Imperial Prince hummed in acknowledgment and nodded.
“At such a time of crisis, I’m afraid that the director might have to compromise with the Yun Lu Academy and let Zhao Shou enter the court as an official. A peak third-grade great scholar was worth it for him to lower his status.
I’m looking for you because I want to go to Mount Clear cloud with you to visit director Zhao Shou.
To put it bluntly, huaiqing was considered half a student of Yun Lu Academy and had studied there for several years.
Zhao Shou would definitely give her face.
Huaiqing nodded.
“Even if fourth brother didn’t look for me, I would still look for you.”
“Good sister,” the flame Imperial Prince laughed.
………..
Feng Qi Palace.
Lin ‘an brought two Palace maids with him and passed through the courtyard, entering the quiet and cold Feng Qi Palace.
She crossed the threshold and entered the inner hall. She found that the hall was as deserted as the courtyard, and the number of Palace maids and wet nurses was kept to a minimum.
Lin an knew that consort mother was making things difficult for the Empress.
However, ever since her brother had ascended the throne, the Empress had completely lost her temper. No matter how hard her mother bullied her, the Empress ignored it.
Lin an originally thought that this was the Empress “compromise and admission of defeat. However, she had once heard her mother say that after Wei Yuan’s death, that b * tch was like a dead person and that it was really boring.
In the simple and elegant inner hall, the Empress, dressed in plain clothes, sat at the table and looked at her without any expression.
Lin ‘an had not seen the Empress for many years, but in his impression, the Empress was the same as huaiqing, cold and indifferent, not warm to anyone. However, it was not like now, where there was nothing but coldness.
“Greetings, mother.”
Lin an respectfully saluted his nominal mother.
The Empress was an extremely beautiful person. Even though she was no longer in her Prime, time seemed to be unable to bear to destroy her beauty. There were no traces of her devastatingly beautiful face, but instead, it was more like the precipitation of time.
“His Majesty just came to see me.”
The Empress looked at the person in front of her. Her face was round and her peach blossom eyes were charming and full of emotions. She was a woman who could seduce people without saying anything.
In comparison, her daughter, huaiqing, was too cold even though her figure and appearance were not inferior.
“Brother Emperor?”
Lin an was a little surprised.
The Empress nodded slightly and said in a calm tone, ”
“Lin ‘an has also reached the age of marriage. His Majesty came for your marriage.”
Lin an’s expression changed.
