On top of the dragon case, the emperor sighed long and short at the memorial of marriage, and his palms clenched tightly - the palace was full of golden branches and jade leaves, and he was reluctant to send any of them to that remote place where the yellow sand was rolling.Princess Ping Ling, who was living in the dormitory, woke up in the middle of the night. When she opened her eyes, she saw Munuha lying on her side, her whole body frozen as if she had fallen into an ice cave.It turns out that Shen Xihe and Mo Yu had noticed something strange about the fragrance in the wing, and they planned to pretend to be unconscious. When Princess Pingling came in and started to tamper with her, Mo Yu took advantage of the situation and knocked her out with a palm.
All the candles in the dark room were extinguished. When Munuha stepped in, he mistakenly identified Princess Pingling as Shen Xihe. The marriage was finally a foregone conclusion.The next day, the imperial edict was issued, and Princess Pingling married the Le clan in a distant place. The journey was high and the mountains were high and the road was far away. It was likely that she would never return to the capital for reunion in the rest of her life.Within a few days, there were many foreign traders in the streets and alleys of the capital, and the long stalls were filled with rare and rare treasures. Shen Xihe immediately fell in love with the rare and expensive Qionghua with thin leaves, and immediately bought it. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a round fan with an aquatic pattern. As soon as his fingertips touched the handle, he realized that Xiao Changqing had already pocketed it.

Seeing that the searching in his eyes was still lingering, she turned around and left without wanting to stay any longer. However, Xiao Changqing quickly stepped forward and forced the fan into her palm.This scene fell in the eyes of Xiao Huayong not far away, his eyes darkened, and he already had a plan in his heart.On the way back to the forest trail, a group of men in black suddenly rushed out. Bao Bao tried his best to protect the master, but in the end they were outnumbered. Shen tide and he were kidnapped to a thatched cottage in a remote mountain col.

She pretended to faint, taking advantage of the guard's laxity to knock them out. When she raised her eyes, she caught a glimpse of the tattoos on their backs.The sound of horse hooves shattered the mountain wind, and Xiao Huayong, wearing a silver mask, broke in first as the embroiderer, followed closely by Xiao Changqing, who also rushed in with his sword.The two exchanged several moves, and Xiao Changqing gradually fell behind, but Xiao Huayong didn't reveal any flaws from beginning to end. Only Xiao Changqing picked up Xiao Changying's exclusive jade token among the grass.
After escaping from danger, Shen Xihe bandaged his wounds and whispered that behind the necks of those people were the totems of Nanzhou Kingdom, and they were Li Yanhui's men.Xiao Huayong paused with his fingertips, and it became clear at once - Li Yanhui's target was him, and kidnapping Shen Xihe was just a bargaining chip to blackmail him.After nightfall, the two stayed in a suburban inn. Xiao Huayong covered his heart and pretended to be sick, forcing himself to share a room with Shen Xihe.
Shen Xihe immediately agreed, and just as his eyes filled with joy, he realized that she had been staring at the fine-leafed Qionghua on the table all night, waiting to see it bloom in the middle of the night, but her little thoughts finally came to nothing.The next day, Xiao Changqing went to the palace to face the saint, and told the whole story about his encounter with the mask master in the mountains that day. He also took out a jade token to prove that the man was Xiao Huayong, and questioned why he left the capital to recuperate.The Queen Mother immediately frowned, thinking that he was deliberately framing Shen Xihe's affairs. Before she finished speaking, news came from the East Palace that Xiao Huayong was seriously ill.
The emperor and the empress hurried over and saw Xiao Huayong lying on the couch with a pale face. Xiao Changqing was still reluctant and asked him to untie his clothes and check if there were any sword wounds to find out whether it was true or false.Shen Xihe took a step forward and said loudly that from last night to this moment, Xiao Huayong had not left his side for even a moment.The Queen Mother was overjoyed, thinking that the two were deeply in love, and immediately proposed to advance the wedding date.
Xiao Changqing objected desperately, but Xiao Huayong spoke slowly, saying that he understood his obsession with “Gu Qingzhi”, and blamed himself for not being sensible when he was young, which always made his brothers unhappy.Li Yan was imprisoned within a few days after she returned, and all her accomplices confessed that she was the one who was responsible for the interception and killing.When Nanzhou was defeated, she endured the humiliation and married King Ding, lying dormant for many years just for revenge.
The emperor decreed that she should be given a completely poisonous wine, and Prince Xiao Changtai rushed to the dungeon like crazy, grabbed the poisonous wine, and drank it first.Li Yan looked back at him falling beside her, and then she understood the feelings that had been hidden for many years, and burst into tears.Shen tide and he had expected that the emperor would not really kill her, but sure enough, Xiao Changtai just faked his death and fainted, and both of them survived.
Xiao Changqing still refused to give up. He knelt in front of the emperor and begged the emperor to issue an order to terminate their engagement. He bluntly stated that he would not marry anyone other than Shen Xihe.The emperor looked at him and finally revealed the truth: Xiao Huayong has a long life, and he just wants to live the rest of his life as he pleases. And you are the most prestigious among the princes. I have already regarded you as the heir apparent. You must not be trapped in the love between children.But Xiao Changqing didn't care about the supreme position at all, he just wanted to keep Shen Xihe.
In the end, he was sent to guard the palace gate. Xiao Changmin came here to taunt him, saying with a smile that he would marry the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs in the near future, and that he had already been favored by the Holy Heart, so he walked away triumphantly.A few days later, a scholar suddenly beat drums outside the palace to express his grievances, accusing him of cheating in the scientific examination and selling his official position.The emperor immediately ordered the new imperial examination candidates to retake the examination in the hall. A group of people all turned into idiots who had forgotten their words. They hesitantly admitted that they had bought the questions and memorized the answers in advance, and even divulged the source of the examination questions.

Long Yan was furious, and all civil and military officials in the court looked at each other. No one dared to take on this hot case. Only Xiao Huayong stepped forward and accepted the order for a thorough investigation.
