The moon is dark and the wind is high, well, it’s perfect for killing people.
This sentence has been lingering in Yin Ning’s mind for a long time. She sat quietly in the wedding hall and quietly touched the dagger hidden under her sleeve. Perhaps a shocking news will break out in Daling tomorrow morning – today’s little princess Yin Ning of Daling assassinated the consort Gu Qingtang on her wedding night!
Why kill your husband? Let the little princess sort out her thoughts on this matter, and she should start from the morning meeting a month ago.
The spring rain is continuous and the cool breeze blows.
Yin Changan, the new emperor of Daling, was dressed neatly and had been sitting on the dragon chair for a long time. He plucked the beads hanging in front of him out of boredom and yawned sleepily.
All civil and military officials stood solemnly in the palace. Although their feet were numb from standing, no one dared to move.
“Hahaha, I’ve been waiting for a long time, I’ve been waiting for a long time!” A loud bell sounded outside the hall, and a bearded man wearing a green python robe stepped into the hall, turned around and said with a smile, “Your kid’s strange thing is Yue More and more people are coming. When the morning court is over and you return home with your adoptive father, just ask for any reward you want!”
“Lieutenant Nian is here!”
Yin Changan quickly sat up straight, cleared his throat, and motioned to the young **** beside him, “Start the morning court, speak quickly!”
“From the beginning of the morning, there is a book to play, but there is no book…”
Before the little **** had finished speaking, a guy with a pretty face following behind Lieutenant Nian suddenly spoke.
“Your Majesty, I have something to report.”
“Oh?” Nian Taiwei looked at the person who spoke, narrowed his eagle eyes, “Before I came in, I didn’t hear you say that you had something to report today.”
The pretty guy smiled in the hall, coughed dryly, and said, “Spring is here, I think it’s time for me to find a companion.”
When Yin Chang’an heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh and said: “It’s time for Mr. Gu to start a family. Whose daughter do you want me to promise you?”
I saw this Gu Shaofu straightening the sleeves of his very clean official uniform, raising a pair of sneaky eyes, looking at Yin Changan and smiling: “Your Majesty, I want to marry the princess. ”
“You…” Yin Changan’s face suddenly became very ugly, but he had to choke on his words. He glanced at Lieutenant Nian with some fear and said with a smile, “This… my imperial sister Only seventeen years old…still a bit young…”
“It’s better to be young! Who would marry a man of seventy or eighty years old?” Gu Shaofu didn’t care that the person sitting on the dragon throne was the current emperor of Daling, or maybe because his adoptive father was Daling. Nian Taiwei, the most powerful official in the mausoleum and in charge of the army and horses in Daling, did not pay attention to the emperor Yin Changan at all.
“What do you think, Captain Nian?” Yin Changan asked tentatively.
Nian Taiwei looked at Mr. Gu, then at Yin Changan, and suddenly smiled and said: “Qingtang, why do you suddenly want to marry the princess?”
The Young Master Gu Qingtang thought for a while and said: “Didn’t the sworn brother also marry the eldest princess? If Qingtang can marry the little princess, the Taiwei Mansion will have two princes-in-law from the same family. From ancient times to the present, But not many people can have the honor and favor of Taiwei Mansion!”
Nian Taiwei couldn’t help laughing loudly and said: “Well, I think you always have some clever ideas to make your adoptive father happy. Since you like the little princess, your adoptive father will be a matchmaker for you today,” he said, He looked at Yin Chang’an who was sitting on the dragon throne, “Your Majesty, I have asked my adopted son Gu Qingtang to marry the little princess. I wonder if your Majesty will allow it?”
“This…” Yin Changan secretly clenched his fists and forced a smile, “Do you really mean what the Lieutenant said?”
Lieutenant Nian suppressed his smile in displeasure, “If Your Majesty feels that what I said is not weighty enough, I will have no choice but to ask the Queen Mother to speak.”
“I…I’m sure!” Yin Chang’an heard the word Queen Mother and nodded quickly, “I’m sure!”
“Very good.” Nian Taiwei nodded with satisfaction and looked at Gu Qingtang, “Boy, after accepting this great gift from your adoptive father, you have to think carefully about what you can use to repay the gift.”
“It’s not difficult to return the gift, but…” Gu Qingtang looked at Yin Chang’an again, “Wei Chen has already asked the master, there will be a once-in-a-lifetime auspicious day next month. I wonder if on that day, I can become Wei Chen and Yin Changan A good day for the princess?”
Nian Taiwei couldn’t help but smile and said: “You boy, you are quite anxious.”
Gu Qingtang said sternly: “The princess is a rich person. I don’t know how many people are watching her inside and outside. If I don’t marry her into my family quickly…”
“That’s enough!” Yin Chang’an suddenly interrupted Gu Qingtang’s words, but the moment he looked at the eyes of the former Taiwei and Gu Qingtang, he softened again, “I…I am following you.” After saying that, he raised his head He rubbed his temples with his hands, “Eight points, I feel unwell. Please help me go back to the palace to rest. Retreat from the court, retreat from the court!”
The little **** glanced at Captain Nian hesitantly.
Nian Taiwei nodded in acquiescence, and the morning went by like this.
Outside the palace, Lieutenant Nian asked Gu Qingtang, “Why do you suddenly want to marry the little princess?”
Gu Qingtang replied: “Since ancient times, princesses have mostly taken advantage of marriage. But Qingtang has heard that His Majesty has had secret correspondence with the Prince of Dache outside the southern border in the past few days. Prince Dache has just come of age. If he is borrowed by His Majesty, I borrowed a large cart of troops and horses for my marriage, so my adoptive father will have a hard time!”
“You kid, tsk tsk, it seems that I didn’t adopt you as my adopted son for nothing back then. You are really a genius.”
“Thank you for the compliment, foster father! Hahaha.”
Outside the main hall, two sycophants who were whispering laughed sinisterly. But in the harem, the young princess Yin Ning of Daling jumped up from the couch after hearing the news. She angrily pulled out the long sword hanging on the wall and shouted angrily, “I am going to kill this couple.” The treacherous sycophant! ”
“Princess, you’d better put down your sword first!” Xiao Xi, the maid on the side, exhorted in shock.
“Don’t even think about it!” Yin Ning glared at Xiao Xi angrily.
Xiao Xi shook her head helplessly and whispered: “But the sword in your hand is not sharp.”
“What?!” Yin Ning lowered his head and looked at the long sword in his hand. Both blades were blunt. Not to mention killing people, even killing a toad would not break the skin.
The Empress Dowager Nian has a ban in the palace. Except for the emperor who can wear sharp swords, all palaces and courtyards are not allowed to have sharp swords for decoration. Therefore, the long sword hanging in the little princess’s room can only be one. Dull sword.
“Princess, you have no words to say, since your majesty has already agreed…”
“I refuse to accept this fate! If Gu Qingtang doesn’t let me live a good life, I won’t let him live a good life!”
“Princess, what are you going to do?”
“Secretly go and get a whetstone for me!”
“Huh?”
“Go quickly!”
People say that raising an army takes a thousand days, but it takes only a moment. Yin Ning secretly sharpened a blunt dagger for a whole month. No matter what, Gu Qingtang must pay a heavy price!
The noise in the Prince Consort’s Mansion gradually died down. When the door to the Palace of Happiness was pushed open, Yin Ning knew that the moment she had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Xiao Xi walked forward tremblingly and bowed to Gu Qingtang, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, “Greetings to the Prince Consort.”
“Go down.” Gu Qingtang, smelling of wine, waved to Xiao Xi and the other maids to leave, “You all, please leave. Tonight, I want to talk to the princess alone.”
She speaks so softly, like an opera singer! Disgusting! Disgusting!
Under the wedding dress, Yin Ning cursed. She had only one chance to vent the sadness and anger she had been holding back for a month. She quietly held her breath, just waiting for the moment when Gu Qingtang lifted the wedding dress. Opportunity to give Gu Qingtang, a sycophant, a hard blow!
Xiao Xi hesitated for a moment, walked to the table, picked up the wedding banquet, and said with a smile: “The slaves have to wait for the consort and the princess to drink the combined wine before they can leave here.”
Gu Qingtang accepted the compliment with a mysterious smile on his face, “That’s right, you can use this for self-defense.”
Xiao Xi felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest. She knew about the little princess Yin Ning secretly polishing the dagger in the past month. Could it be that Gu Qingtang had received the news and knew that the princess was going to assassinate him tonight?
Gu Qingtang had already seen the panic on Xiao Xi’s face, smiled secretly, deliberately stood two steps away from the princess, stretched out the scale in his hand from a distance, and prepared to pick away the princess’s Xipa.
Coming!
Yin Ning felt a chill on his head, and stabbed the person in front of him with the dagger in his hand without hesitation——
“How much does the princess like me? She just took off her wedding veil and threw herself into her arms like this. I’m so embarrassed.” When this voice appeared in her ears, Yin Ning already felt that something was wrong.
I saw Gu Qingtang step aside and reach out to pinch Yin Ning’s jaw. He hugged her in his arms and covered the bright dagger tip with the wide sleeves of his bright red clothes with a smile.
“Let me go!” Whether it was because of anger or shyness, her cheeks turned red in an instant. Yin Ning raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qingtang – he thought that the sycophant should have a sly eyebrow, but why? The sycophantic minister in front of me has sharp features and is so pretty that he looks like he is about to squeeze out water. That face is so beautiful!
Although Yin Ning had heard about Gu Qingtang’s origins, she never expected that this young man, who was recommended by Captain Nian as the young master, would actually have a charming face.
If you are so good-looking, why do you have to be a sycophant? The most terrible thing was that after taking this look, Yin Ning felt a familiar feeling in his heart – where had he seen this Gu Qingtang before?
Gu Qingtang looked at the princess in his arms with a smile – the princess was so exquisite that she only reached the prince-consort’s chest. Her eyebrows were like spring willows, her eyes were like stars, and her face was like a peach blossom. Even though her face was full of sullenness now, she still had a different kind of ” Delicious” flavor.
The princess and the consort hugged each other just after they met. What a loving relationship!
Xiao Xi felt that three souls were frightened and two souls were scared away. She didn’t know what to do next. Fortunately, there were several maids who knew what to do next.
“Xiao Xi…Xiao Xi…” the maid quietly tugged on her sleeves, “Let’s retreat…”
“Um…this…”
“Let’s go!”
Not waiting for Xiao Xi to retort, the maids pulled Xiao Xi out of the wedding hall, closed the door of the wedding hall tightly with a smile, and walked away holding each other’s arms.
