Flower Stealing Master Chapter 207: Late night visitor
Hongli hosted a banquet to entertain the imperial ministers. The guarding force of the entire palace can be said to guard the outside and the inside. After Song Qingshu left the table, although he encountered several pairs of patrolmen, he nodded when he saw the official uniforms on his body. Let it go.
However, Song Qingshu is not a fool. He would not think that the guards would still ignore him when they arrived in the inner courtyard of the palace, hiding their tracks along the way, and finally found Xia Qingqing by the lake.
A woman stood alone, staring at the water in a daze.
"You came very quickly." Hearing the voice behind him, Xia Qingqing seemed to have expected it early, without any surprises.
"Why are you waiting here alone." Song Qingshu looked around. With her current status, she shouldn't be alone.
"To wait for you." Xia Qingqing turned around, with a faint smile on her face.
Beauty Yanran is still the same, but her identity has long been vicissitudes of life, and a trace of sadness flashed across Song Qingshu's face: "Why didn't you ask me before you made this decision? I will tell you the plan in my heart completely. You listened. I will never choose to leave me later."
"I have asked you many times," Qing breeze disturbed the hair, Xia Qingqing stretched out her fingers to smooth the scattered hair behind her ears, and smiled slightly, "But every time you just say,'Believe me, believe I'."
Song Qingshu was taken aback when he heard the words, and it seemed to be true at the time.
Xia Qingqing saw his reaction with a complex expression: "Well, let me give you another chance, you can tell me your plan now."
Song Qingshu hesitated for a while, that matter was too relevant to tolerate the slightest leak. Now she is the Princess Bao...
"Forget it, I already know the answer." Xia Qingqing sighed quietly and stopped talking.
"Now that the times have changed, your identity is different, so naturally I can't tell you again." Although Song Qingshu had a desperate impulse, in the end reason still prevailed.
"I understand, but this is probably the last time we have met. You have your plan, and I have my plan. I don't want to make waves." Looking at the lake in the distance, Xia Qingqing said calmly.
"Your plan is not to seduce Hongli and provoke his relationship with Kangxi, but do you really think Hongli can defeat Kangxi?" Song Qingshu sneered.
Xia Qingqing was obviously taken aback, her face looked like ice: "You can understand it this way, but this is my own business, and I don't need others to worry about it." In my heart, I silently added: Of course I know that Hongli is not Kangxi's opponent. ...
"Well then, there will be no time limit." Song Qingshu resolutely turned and left.
"It will be indefinitely..." Xia Qingqing had a brief absence, muttering to herself, a hint of bitterness flashed across her face.
Back to the banquet, Song Qingshu laughed as it did before, and frequently got up and intertwined with Shengjing's hundreds of officials, staying with Wei Xiaobao Duolong for so long, calling him brothers and brothers, and making friends with wine and meat. After he noticed that Hongli got up and left the banquet, he drank more happily, and when he came out of the palace, he was already drunk and turned into a muddy mud.
"Old Zhao, what happened to Master Song, suddenly became like this..." Zhang Kangnian supported the drunk Song Qingshu and looked at Zhao Qixian in astonishment.
"How do I know, I was fine before." Zhao Qixian was thrown up, his expression even more depressed.
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry today, I will be promoted to your official after returning to Beijing." Hearing their discussion, Song Qingshu barely opened his eyes and said with a smirk.
"Since this is the case, I think you vomit me too." Zhang Kangnian smiled bitterly on the side.
"Oh..."
"Uh, I'm joking, don't take it seriously, Master Song." Zhang Kangnian's wailing came from the night sky.
In the palace, in the Yilan Pavilion where Fu Jin lives.
"Master, it's getting late, please go back." Xia Qingqing said coldly.
"Qingqing, you are my Fujin." Hongli smiled and wanted to get closer.
The cold light flashed, and Xia Qingqing's golden snake sword had reached his chest, and said in a cold voice, "Master, if you forget me, I will remind you again. This Fujin's name is just a cover for your identity, don't take it seriously. Yes, you are not allowed to call me like that."
"Yes, yes, this king is just joking with Mrs. Yuan," Hongli took a few steps back in a whisper. Their light is fortunate enough to feast their eyes. When I asked my wife that day, she never expected her to agree."
"The alliance between us does not include dancing for you, not as an example." Xia Qingqing added in her heart: This dance is not for you...
"Only this time, this king is already very contented." Hongli laughed and said, "By the way, I heard that Mrs. Jin Snake Camp has a little trouble recently. Would you like this king to send someone to help his wife? "
"No, it's just my method of deliberately paralyzing Kangxi, otherwise Kangxi will not be able to tolerate a united Golden Snake Camp." Xia Qingqing shook her head and flatly refused.
It turned out that Xia Qingqing was moved by Luo Bing’s remarks, and she felt that Song Qingshu didn’t really help her revenge. In addition, the longer she stayed with Song Qingshu, the more blurred Yuan Chengzhi’s shadow in her mind became. She was afraid of a certain day. , I even forgot to avenge my grudges, so I chose to leave. However, she has been with Yuan Chengzhi in command of the Golden Snake Camp for so long, and she is no longer the stubborn little girl who didn't understand anything but just lost her temper. It was because of the murder of her husband that hatred blinded her eyes, and she has calmed down during this period of time. In her opinion, Luo Bing was limited in his vision, and his strategy was full of loopholes. Xia Qingqing was not as stupid as a member of the Red Flower Society. For the sake of a vague possibility, he easily gave up his innocence.
Xia Qingqing went south to Shandong first. Seeing that the Jinsheying hills were playing happily, Xia Qingqing was angry and brought a group of cronies north to Shengjing.
Hongli is having a headache because of the princess Jianning, the king of the West, Wu Sangui fell out, and lost his ally, Wu Sangui. He has hundreds of thousands of troops. The road to the south is blocked by Wu Sangui, and to the north is the fierce Mongolia. , It is the desperate situation that there is no way forward and the pursuit of soldiers behind. Of course, if he is willing to be a prince of a separatist side, he can naturally guard his one-acre three-centre to live happily for decades, but it is a pity that he has been coveting the dragon chair in the capital, how can he be a guardian prince?
Xia Qingqing’s arrival made him overjoyed, because she gave another way out: to join with the Golden Snake Camp. The Golden Snake Camp helped him transport the army from Lushunkou to Tianjin Wei by sea. The Golden Snake Camp started from Shandong and fight together. When he arrived in the capital, he completely bypassed Wu Sangui's Shanhaiguan, and Wu Sangui and Xiao Feng of the Liao Kingdom were fighting hard. When he pulled out, Daqing Jiangshan had already been included in his bag.
The reason why Hongli didn’t think about sending troops from the sea before was because his soldiers were not good at water warfare. The Bohai Sea was even under the control of Shenlong Island, and Shenlong Island had already taken refuge in Mongolia. If he set off from the sea, dozens The Wan elite army will only die in the belly of the fish, but the alliance with the Golden Snake Camp can solve all this perfectly.
Golden Snake Camp was well-known overseas in the early years, and is still the overlord of the Yellow Sea. He is good at water warfare and can deal with the Dragon Sect.
Therefore, Hongli and Xia Qingqing hit it off immediately and quickly formed an alliance. During this time, in order to discuss the way to deal with the Dragon Sect and the specific details of future cooperation, Xia Qingqing must meet with him frequently. Hongli was worried that a strange woman would often enter and leave the palace, which would arouse suspicion from the interested, and she revealed her plan, so she placed Xia Qingqing in the palace as a side of Fujin to hide her attention.
"That's good." Although Hongli still has doubts in his heart, he knows that the other party's husband was killed by Kangxi. Whether it is for the benefit of the Golden Snake Camp or her private vengeance, there is no need to lie to himself. "By the way, Mrs. Yuan, can you see the imperial minister sent by the court today?"
"The minister of imperial commission?" Xia Qingqing's heart jumped and said lightly, "I have seen it, with a white face, it looks nothing remarkable, I must have no real ability."
"Ms. Yuan is very wrong to think so," Hongli said in a deep voice, "After Wei Xiaobao's death, Song Qingshu has become Kangxi's number one confidant, vaguely aspiring to the throne of the top master of the Qing Dynasty. "
"Martial arts is no more than a knife, and can afford to turn over any big waves." Xia Qingqing deliberately put on an expression of disdain.
"The martial arts is so high that it is no longer a knife. Madam Yuan can still remember how the husband died? The golden snake king martial arts is powerful, with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, the overlord of one party, he will not still die in the east Under the blow of the undefeated Bo Lang, Huangtu Baye became empty in no time." Hongli deliberately looked at Xia Qingqing's face.
Xia Qingqing's face changed drastically: "One day I will kill Dongfang Undefeated and avenge Big Brother Yuan... But there are several Dongfang Undefeated in the world? Song Qingshu's martial arts is good, but I want to assassinate the prince. Still unable to catch it."
"There are many masters in this mansion, so naturally you don't need to be afraid of him." Hongli patted his chest proudly. "It's just that he is so old that he is already a master, and it is impossible to guarantee that he will not grow into the kind of ten steps to kill one person in the future. The horror that does not keep the line exists, it must not be avoided."
"The prince meant that he would act first before he was fully grown?" Xia Qingqing asked blankly, "It's just that I'm afraid this will make Kangxi vigilant, and the gain will not be worth the loss."
"I think it's the opposite," Hongli sneered~IndoMTL.com~According to the spy’s report, Kangxi had asked him to prepare a secret intelligence agency to stick to the pole. If it is really established, we may be restrained everywhere in the future, marching and fighting. Also passive at all times. Hey, as the saying goes, there is a way in heaven, you don’t go, and there is no way to hell, but you are here, he fell into the trap this time, how could this king let go of such a great opportunity? "
"But after all, he is a minister of imperial envoys. If the prince does something, I am afraid that the situation will not be cleared." Xia Qingqing frowned, anxious in her heart.
"It's okay, this king has a clever plan." Hongli smiled inexplicably.
Song Qingshu was escorted back to the Sifang Pavilion by his subordinates. Just after getting off the carriage, a royal guard greeted him and whispered: "Song Master, a beautiful woman came to see you just now."
"A beautiful woman?" Song Qingshu opened his eyes slightly and said in a vague tone, "Does she have a name to be notified?"
The guard replied respectfully: "No, but when the other party came, she was dressed up and seemed to be deliberately hiding her deeds. Our brother thought she must have something important to find an adult, so he took her to the museum on his own initiative. Waiting inside."
"Could it be Xia Qingqing?" Song Qingshu was overjoyed, pushing away the guards, staggering and walking inside.
