[Langya Bang] Qi Ye Zhenzhen

On the second day, Yan Zhen followed Jingyan into the palace to watch Bailiqi fight the three children.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw Mei Changsu instructing the three young children in earnest, and when they saw Tingsheng, Xiao Jingyan and Yan Zhen exchanged glances, they both understood the meaning in his eyes.

Seeing the two of them coming hand in hand, Mei Changsu saluted, "His Royal Highness Prince Jing, Your Royal Highness Prince Jing."

"Mr. Su, don't be too polite." Xiao Jingyan knew that Mei Changsu agreed to Yan Zhen's request yesterday, and although he felt disgust towards him for ordinary counselors, he also knew that this person was different from ordinary counselors, and his prejudice was not as deep as before. .

"Your Highness and Princess Wang are really early."

"This battle has spread all over Jinling, how many people are looking forward to it, and I'm also very curious, how does the master plan to win Bailiqi?" Yan Zhen nodded slightly, lowering her head and drooping her eyes in a gentle manner, no different from when she was young.

"Just look at it, Your Highness."

"His Royal Highness Prince Jing, Princess Wang, Mr. Su. You guys are really early."

As soon as Mei Changsu finished speaking, Princess Nihuang walked in with Mu Qing in high spirits.

Mei Changsu greeted each other with a smile, and secretly lamented how the two siblings always looked very energetic, which was far from the lazy and elegant posture of the nobles in the capital. some of the same temperament.

Thinking about it, he glanced at Xiao Jingyan again.

Yan Zhen suggested that the husband and wife go in first, after all, Sheng Jia is coming soon.

Mei Changsu talked to Nihuang for a while, but Yan Yujin, who had just arrived, interrupted the conversation before he finished speaking.

Above the main hall, Yan Zhen stood next to Xiao Jingyan and watched the upcoming battle in the main hall.

"Su Qing," Emperor Liang smiled peacefully, "How are your achievements?"

"It's useless to talk too much, Your Majesty just take a closer look." Mei Changsu beckoned the three children out and knelt down on the ground in a row.

Emperor Liang looked at the three small figures, and then at the muscular Bailiqi beside him, feeling a little uncertain after all, he couldn't help but look back at Meng Zhi.

"Your Majesty, is this the beginning?" Meng Zhi took the opportunity to bow and ask for orders.

The arrow had already been wound and had to be fired. Emperor Liang covered the trace of worry in his eyes and nodded.

The three children stood up, one of them held a sword, and the finished characters stood with firm expressions. The solemnity was completely different from the shrinking attitude two days ago, and it made the onlookers mind Get excited.

Seeing that Tingsheng was like this, Yan Zhen was somewhat comforted by his father Qi Wang's charm.

Bailiqi left the field empty-handed, glanced at the opponent in front of him with disdain, and casually made a gesture.

"Start!" Meng Zhi ordered together, and suddenly a breeze blew up in the arena, the three children spun around like a top, their footwork intertwined like flowers, the originally clear figures suddenly became blurred, and their martial arts were slightly inferior People immediately feel a blur in front of them.

Yan Zhen narrowed her eyes, she was born under the sect of old man Tianji, Lingxu Sword Formation is also related to the sect of Tianji, this sword technique has always been dexterous and fast, and also implies five elements and gossip, but it is not the original Lingxu sword array.

Yan Zhen lost her mind, and just as she was distracted, a few muffled grunts sounded from the arena, followed by a plop, the three children retracted their swords and jumped back, the light and shadow disappeared, and when everyone looked again, Bailiqi was half kneeling On the ground, supporting his body with his arms, his face was full of anger and unwillingness.

"Won!"

"Won!"

There were cheers in the hall.

Yan Zhen lowered her head and took a sip of tea, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Although Emperor Liang had the demeanor of a king, he also smiled at this time.

"Baili Warrior, how are you?" Bei Yan was angry and anxious.

"My lord envoy, don't worry, we won't hurt the guests." Mei Changsu said with a smile while gesturing to the three children, "Thank Your Majesty for your kindness soon."

The little Three Musketeers immediately kowtowed, and Nihuang begged to be released from their status as criminal slaves, and staged a scene of fighting for the three children with Mei Changsu.

At this time, Liang Dilong was very happy and said: "I haven't said anything yet, but you started fighting first, I won't be fooled. You have done meritorious service, and I will not break my promise. I will remove my status as a criminal slave, and I can be placed by Yousi, or I can take refuge with relatives and friends."

Emperor Liang was in a good mood, and even made fun of Nihuang and Mei Changsu, and then he didn't care about the whereabouts of these little slaves.

Yan Zhen pursed her lips to reveal a small dimple, turned her head and was about to say something to Xiao Jingyan, but met the prince's dazed eyes, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, frowned, and slightly looked away.

"Jingyan, let's go pay respects to Concubine Mu together later. Today happens to be the day you can enter the palace."

"Yeah. You've worked hard these days." Xiao Jingyan knew that there were many things going on in the past few days. In the past few days in the capital, she managed to raise Yingrun, and she lost a lot of weight during this time.

"These few days can't be counted as hard work. The hard days are yet to come." Yan Zhen Liwo smiled slightly. She lowered her head and took a sip of tea. She gave Bailiqi a meaningful look, then turned to look at the emperor Commander Meng beside him frowned.

Xiao Jingyan and Yan Zhen entered the palace to go to Concubine Jing's place, they walked very slowly, Yan Zhen already knew from Yujin the itinerary of Sima Lei and Liao Tingjie for the past few days, even though the queen invited the Princess into the palace today , but Liao Tingjie has already made an appointment with Yujin to play polo today.

Therefore, if it is today, it can only be Concubine Yue.

It depends on whether Meng Zhi comes to look for their husband and wife today.

Before they arrived at Zhiluo Palace, Meng Zhi came to look for them. Yan Zhen's expression turned cold, and he pursed his lips: "Commander Meng, please invite Prince Mu to guard near the back gate of Zhaoren Palace. Regarding the famous festival of Nihuang at this time, The less people know about it, the better."

"I understand."

Xiao Jingyan and Yan Zhen hurried to Zhaoren Palace, but they were stopped as soon as they entered the palace gate.

Yan Zhen narrowed her eyes and sneered: "Why, my husband and I can't come to Zhaoren Palace to greet the imperial concubine?"

Xiao Jingyan frowned and looked at the guards, seeing that they were still motionless, with a bit of anger in his eyes.

Yan Zhen's expression froze, and she raised her hand with a knife. She has practiced martial arts since she was a child and has fought with her husband for many years. These guards are by no means her opponents.

Yan Zhen and Xiao Jingyan snatched the swords from the guards' hands, and Nihuang rushed out of the door at this moment. She staggered, and when she saw Xiao Jingyan and Yan Zhen, she pressed her lips into a chuckle, and called out pretending to be weak: "His Royal Highness Prince Jing... ...Ah Zhen..."

Yan Zhen rushed to help Nihuang up, she whispered: "Then you will be responsible for pretending to be dizzy, and leave the matter to me."

Nihuang nodded, her eyes were blurred, her feet were limp, and she leaned against Yan Zhen.

This game has come here, and I must not do bad things.

"Xiao Jingyan! You are so presumptuous and daring. You also trespassed on my Zhaoren Palace?" Concubine Yue had seen clearly that Prince Jing and Concubine Jing were coming, her eyebrows twitched, and she immediately stepped forward and angrily said, "You want to hurt someone? Rebellion?"

When the prince saw Xiao Jingyan, he was frightened and angry, and when he saw Yan Zhen, he was startled again. He couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he ordered the guards to surround them: "Jingyan, how dare you break into the palace of the concubine and snatch the princess?" , fortunately, the crown prince is here to escort you, let go of the princess, maybe for the sake of brotherhood, I will not report to the emperor..."

Hearing this, Yan Zhen sneered, and his eyes fell on Sima Lei who was next to Concubine Yue: "My husband and I came to pay my respects to the concubine and empress. I never thought that I would be able to meet foreign ministers here. Empress is really tricky."

Concubine Yue Guifei repeatedly yelled and cursed and ordered his guards to surround Xiao Jingyan, the inner circle held steel knives, and the outer circle unexpectedly set up bows and arrows.

"Mother Concubine!" Seeing that Yan Zhen was also surrounded, the crown prince hurriedly called out, "He is also a prince after all."

After so many years, how could Concubine Yue not understand her son's thoughts towards Yan Zhen, she gave the prince a hard look and said, "Only when the dead don't speak, can we have the opportunity to speak."

Concubine Yue's gorgeous red lips pursed, and two words burst out from between her teeth: "Let the arrow!"

The prince was stunned, and immediately rushed forward a few steps, and said loudly: "Prince Jing broke into the palace and assassinated the mother and concubine, and murdered the princess, I will shoot and kill!"

He still didn't mention Yan Zhen, and he still couldn't bear it.

The guards hesitated for a moment, but after all, the crown prince was their master, so they put their arrows into the bow immediately, and the arrows rained like rain.

Xiao Jingyan and Yan Zhen exchanged glances, he took a step forward, and shot down the first wave of arrows with a swish of his sword as bright as snow.Taking advantage of the gap, Yan Zhen fought to the left to the front of the steps, put the princess on the ground, and blocked the second wave of arrows.She squinted her eyes, deliberately missed an arrow where Xiao Jingyan could not see, and when the arrow pierced into the flesh, she gritted her teeth and did not make a sound.

But when Yan Zhen blocked the second wave of arrows, Xiao Jingyan suddenly turned over and jumped up, leaped several times in the air, slashed left and right, and landed exclusively at the place where the guards were densely packed, disrupting the archer's position and leading The sword guards were no match for him, and in the scuffle, he saw his figure suddenly soaring into the sky, sweeping and rushing, the prince who was watching in a daze suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and a sharp blade was already on his neck On, shabby skin.

"Everyone stop!" Xiao Jingyan's voice was not loud, but the audience froze.

Yan Zhen gritted her teeth and pulled out the arrow on her shoulder. The blood soaked into her light yellow clothes, and she looked at the scene in front of her coldly.

At this time, Xiao Jingyan saw the bump on Yan Zhen's body, and his expression froze. Seeing Yan Zhen shaking his head at him, he understood that she was fine, so he cheered up to deal with Concubine Yue.

Concubine Yue trembled all over, gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Xiao Jingyan, how dare you..."

"Among the three armies, killing generals and seizing commanders is something I often do," Prince Jing said with a sneer and arrogance, "His Royal Highness is standing too close to me."

"Jingyan! What exactly do you want?" the prince trembled.

"Send the princess here and let the three of us leave the palace."

Concubine Yue's eyes were as cold as ice, she snorted and said, "What if I say no? Don't you dare to kill the crown prince?"

"Does the imperial concubine want to bet the prince with me?" There was no warmth in Xiao Jingyan's voice, the prince's heart was beating wildly, and he couldn't help calling out "Mother concubine!"

Concubine Yue Guifei's face was frosty, but her chest kept heaving, obviously she was thinking intensely.

When she frowned and was about to open her mouth to speak, a high-pitched and hasty announcement came from the gate of the outer courtyard: "The Empress Dowager has arrived—"

Concubine Yue felt a chill in her heart, and a shudder of despair rolled over her vest.

Concubine Yue looked at Yan Zhen who was pressing the wound below, and she was raising her head and smiling at her, which shocked her.

But after closing her eyes tightly, she quickly regained her composure, and said to Sima Lei at the first sentence: "Get out of the palace from the back immediately, remember, you have never even stepped into Zhaoren Palace today!"

Sima Lei was stunned for a moment, looking around in a daze, then he regained consciousness and ran back in a hurry.

"Jingyan," Concubine Yue quickly walked down the steps, speaking very fast and authentically, "Listen too, the crown prince didn't shoot you with an arrow today, and you didn't put a knife on the crown prince's neck, understand?"

Xiao Jingyan's eyes flashed, but he didn't answer.

"Warning the prince with a knife is the same as shooting the prince with an arrow. It is not what His Majesty likes to hear. I don't want you to perish together. As for other matters, we will each rely on our own ability and let His Majesty come down to the sage." Concubine Yue smiled coldly, " You are a smart person, knowing that this is a deal that is also beneficial to you, why not do it?"

Xiao Jingyan remained expressionless, but the knife in his hand slowly left the prince's neck and was thrown lightly to the ground.

He quickly went down to support Yan Zhen, and asked softly, "How are you?"

Yan Zhen shook her head and pressed the wound, leaning against Xiao Jingyan's body, her mind was a little sleepy: "I'm fine."

Yan Zhen watched the confrontation between Queen Yan and Concubine Yue with cold eyes, and soon they left Zhaoren Palace.

Nihuang went to Zhengyang Palace, and this time she has a queen in charge, and she and Xiao Jingyan promised to go to Zhiluo Palace to treat the wound, and then go to Yangju Palace.

Concubine Jing was startled when she saw the injured Yan Zhen, and hurriedly helped her into the room to treat the wound.

"My daughter-in-law is really troubled to be nagging her mother even though she's hurting her flesh and blood."

Although Yan Zhen and Xiao Jingyan have been married for many years, when they were treating the wound, they were in the inner room while he waited outside.

"You are my daughter-in-law, so how can you say you are nagging." Concubine Jing said with a gloomy expression, "You hurt..."

"Mother has seen it. Mother doesn't need to deal with it." There are some things Yan Zhen didn't hide from Concubine Jing, "Some things, let Jingyan tell you. Mother has been embarrassing for many years, as mother's daughter-in-law, she should do it for her. You vent your anger."

"I know you are filial, but you have to think about yourself. Luckily, you didn't hurt deeply." Concubine Jing knows Yan Zhen's power and wrists, and she and Jingyan complement each other perfectly.

"Mother, don't worry."

After Yan Zhen got dressed, she was going to Yangju Palace. She bid farewell to Concubine Jing and Xiao Jingyan to find Emperor Liang.

Xiao Jingyan supported Yan Zhen, and walked slowly towards the Yangju Hall, there was a trace of worry in his eyes: "How are you hurt?"

"Flesh wounds are fine." Yan Zhen patted his hands on his shoulders, turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "I have suffered worse injuries than this in Beidi, Qingzhou before, it's nothing. Let's go, Nihuang is still waiting."
