“…”

It's interesting to say that Yingying in her previous life was dissatisfied with Qin Rong's excessive intimacy and possession of her, and she didn't know who she had any pain, so she went to complain to her aunt. In this life, Yingying went to find her aunt for Qin Rong, but the content of the complaint was completely opposite to that in her previous life.

Gu Manru didn't know that Qin Rong was injured in advance, so she just thought Qin Rong was too busy and tired recently, and mistakenly thought Yingying wanted to please Qin Rong.

She said that Yingying is too passive in daily life, and her occasional initiative will definitely bring unexpected surprises to Qin Rong. After her aunt's guidance, Yingying came up with a surprise of "the fairy fell into the bath." The plot was still what she saw from the storybook.

The bathroom in the East Palace is very large. I don’t know if it’s because of the newlyweds or the next one. In short, there are still layers of red tents hanging in the bathroom.

A story book that Yingying read recently tells the story of a fairy in the sky falling into the mortal world. A beautiful and innocent fairy fell from the sky and smashed into the bathtub of a handsome scholar. The fairy was pitiful and wet. The handsome scholar fell in love at first glance, and a touching love story happened.

Yingying has never seen a so-called fairy for a hundred years, but she has no entity to float with the wind, so she barely conforms to the character of the "fairy" in the book. Furthermore, the plot in the book is that the fairy falls into the bathtub, so she can fall into the bathtub. The place is big, and the water is covered with bright red petals, which is much more grand than the bathtub.

When Yingying told Xiaodai her thoughts, Xiaodai was in a complicated mood and really didn't know what to say. It took a long time to put it in a sentence: "Empress, please read less of the script in the future."

Even so, the master's orders cannot be violated. She can only obediently help Yingying find out the news, and she cannot reveal Yingying's news.

Yingying was lucky. After Xiaodai inquired, she learned that Qin Rong had gone to the meeting hall early in the morning and had not returned yet, so she went back to the dormitory early in preparation. When she learned that Qin Rong was going to take a shower, she changed into a red gauze dress and went to the bathroom first.

"Where will the Empress hide?" Xiaodai saw Yingying looking up at the roof, and couldn't help but think of the plot of the storybook.

She was afraid that Yingying would really learn the plot in the book and hid it on the roof, so she reminded her weakly: "The roof of the East Palace is much stronger than the broken house of the poor scholar. Even if the empress goes up, she will not be able to smash the roof and fall down. She will probably be caught by the secret guards as an assassin."

Yingying felt it was reasonable, so she looked around the circle and said, "What should I do? Where can I hide it?"

Although this bathroom is big, there are not many things in the room. The red gauze tent is thin and cannot hide people. Although the warm bed on the side of the pool can hide people, it is easy to be discovered. Yingying looked at the gold-inlaid folding screen a few steps away, and she could hide her there, but there was no sense of surprise that "falling from the sky", so the meaning of her coming to the bathroom room would be gone.

"Empress, Your Highness is coming soon." Xiaodai looked at the door.

Yingying looked up at the roof again, and finally climbed up the beam of the corresponding bathhouse, shrank and hid on it and wiped the cloak down.

"Empress!"

Xiao Dai picked up her clothes, stamped her feet and shouted helplessly: "It's not safe from above."

Yingying only hid for a while and was unsafe. She refused to listen to Xiaodai's advice and urged her a few times: "You go quickly, don't let the third brother discover it."

"But..." Before Xiaodai could persuade him again, Cui'er, who was guarding outside, hurried back and said, "Xiaodai, let's go quickly, Your Highness is here."

Xiaodai had no choice but to follow Cui'er and quickly flashed out.

“…”

Yingying's actions were very hidden this time, and Qin Rong really didn't know about it in advance.

It was precisely because he didn't know that Yingying was hiding here that he allowed You Yang and Zuo Zhu to come in. With the sound of pushing the door, Qin Rong stepped in and said, "What's wrong with Prince Qing?"

Youyang said: "Your Majesty Yao sent someone to deliver it this morning, and it is estimated that there will be no sound at this moment."

"It seems that my father is more anxious than Gu expected." He curled the corners of his lips slightly, and Qin Rong lifted the curtain and walked to the bathhouse for a few steps.

He stood with his back to Yingying, and did not find a person hidden on the beam of the room. Yingying controlled and delayed her breathing. With Qin Rong's arrival, she shrank more hidden. She did not expect Zuo Zhu and You Yang to come in. Fortunately, they did not get too close to stand outside the red tent. Yingying covered her mouth with her hands and couldn't help but breathe lighter.

Unbuttoned the buttons with one hand, Qin Rong covered his mouth and coughed a few times. After taking off his outer robe, the white shirt on his body was loose, his hair was hanging behind him, and the neck lines exposed outside his collar were delicate.

As he hung his clothes, Qin Rong's collar was wide open and his beautiful collarbone was exposed. Yingying blinked and couldn't see clearly, only seeing Qin Rong walk to the warm couch.

Perhaps he was really tired. He leaned against the couch and closed his eyes halfway. After You Yang finished reporting, Qin Rong lit the small incense burner beside him, pinched the silver hook and curled the incense ash and asked, "Did you go and check it?"

Zuo Zhu responded: "If I see it myself, there will be no mistakes."

Prince Qing died, and was poisoned by a glass of poisonous wine sent by Emperor Wucheng. The news received outside would be that Prince Qing felt that he had no face to face his ancestors, so he committed suicide.

It doesn't matter what the truth is. Anyway, history is written by the winners, and the purpose they want is enough. No one cares about how a sinner dies.

Yingying's legs squatting on the beam of the house were numb. Seeing that You Yang and Zuo Zhu below did not mean to leave, she carefully moved to the lower position.

Getting the answer he wanted, Qin Rong stood up from the couch and said, "Since he is dead, it's time for his remaining minions to cut off his nails."

"Youyang, if you go to Qiu's house, you will say that you have something to do to find him."

"yes."

"Zuo Zhu, you sent someone to sneak into the court of Nanyin Kingdom, and you are alone to see who the Nanyin royal family has such a big appetite and actually wants to annex the Northern Territory."

Yingying didn't listen much to the words behind, but she heard Qin Rong's ears when she heard Nan Yin Guo mention it. Seeing Zuo Zhu and You Yang were about to leave, Yingying cheered up and saw Qin Rong dropping her hand on her waist, as if she wanted to continue taking off her clothes.

"Your Highness." Just as Qin Rong was about to take off her thin shirt, Youyang suddenly stopped.

He stood by the door, as if he had just remembered something; "Mr. Gu's affairs... how should the Empress explain?"

Lord Gu?! Is it her father or brother? What's wrong?

Yingying heard You Yang mention his name, and these were the first things that came to mind.

Qin Rong stopped his movements, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. He said indifferently: "The holy intention has been decided. I think the news that Gu Lingxiao went to the northwest has been spread to Fengkun Palace now, and Yingying can't hide it."

"If she asks, she will answer truthfully."

That's all.

Just as Youyang was about to take the order, he suddenly noticed the breath of another person in the bathroom. Zuo Zhu and Youyang looked at each other and found something was wrong. The two quickly opened the curtain and attacked the pond. Youyang shouted, "Who is there!"

The words "Gu Lingxiao's march to the northwest" made Yingying completely stunned, so that she could not hide her breath.

The eyes were stabbed by the sudden attack of the sword light. Yingying hurriedly avoided it in panic, but she forgot that she was still hiding on the beam of the house at this time, so she leaned back when she was lying to avoid the sword, and then she fell down without support.

"Bang--" The red skirt fluttered, and with the sound of Yingying falling into the water, the pool water swayed layer by layer of ripples and petals stacked, and the splashed water pounced on Qin Rong's feet.

The right Yangtz sword looked a little shocked when it landed on the ground. He looked at the water and stopped chasing him. I wonder if it was his illusion. At the close glance just now, he felt that the female assassin looked very much like the princess.

Zuo Zhu didn't see Yingying's face clearly. He only saw the falling woman's red dress fluttering and white skin. He exclaimed that it seemed familiar.

"Be careful, Your Highness." Holding a sword to protect Qin Rong, Zuo Zhu saw Youyang standing by the pool without moving. He looked at the violent ripples on the pool water and wanted to go forward to check.

"Everyone turned around." Qin Rong suddenly said in a cold tone.

He walked towards the pool, and at the same time, the water splashes shaking around the pool appeared fiercely. You Yang and Zuo Zhu then ordered to turn around at the same time. When they realized what was going on, they closed their eyes, and there were clamoring water and coughing sounds in their ears.

"Cough cough cough--" Yingying was almost choked to death.

The pool water was steaming, and when she got up from the water, her face turned red, and her body was wet and her red skirt was sticky.

The fairy in the book was pitiful and graceful, and she didn't do it. She only knew that her brain was blank when she fell, and her mouth and nose were choking in the water. Yingying spitted out the petals in her outlet rubbed her eyes, and her skirt spread out on the water surface. She rubbed her eyes and saw Qin Rong standing on the bank of the pool to look at her.

"Well, third brother..." The water on Yingying's hair dripped on her chin, and her voice was low and helpless.

When Youyang and Zuo Zhu were facing each other, they panicked when they heard this claim. Just when they didn't know how to deal with it, Qin Rong spoke out and ordered: "Go out first."

The two left quickly, and Yingying drifted in the pool water and walked towards the shore with the sound of the door being locked.

In order to "hook" Qin Rong, she deliberately wore this red gauze dress, and her fair legs appeared and faintly appeared while walking. The place where Yingying fell into the water was a little far from the pond. She walked for a long time under Qin Rong's gaze before getting closer. This scene was different from the red ears described in the book, and Yingying felt ashamed.

Qin Rong held the man in his head when Yingying approached, and directly picked him up from the water and carried him out.

"Why is Yingying here?" Water drops fell to the ground, and Yingying was wrapped in a generous coat by Qin Rong.

Listening to Qin Rong's calm voice, if it weren't for her silence in her clothes, Yingying wouldn't have come out. She poked her head out and leaned against Qin Rong's arms and whispered: "Yingying... I want to surprise my third brother."

Qin Rong put Yingying on the warm couch, found the clean velvet cloth to help her wipe her face. He leaned over and looked at her and asked, "Surprise?"

Yingying was trapped in a corner of the warm couch by Qin Rong, and her hands and feet were wrapped around and shrank into a small ball. Her eyelashes were trembling. Looking at Qin Rong's face, which was so close, could not explain more. She couldn't say that she was deliberately hooking up with him, right?

If it weren't for the fact that Gu Lingxiao went to war, Yingying would have hooked Qin Rong's neck and kissed her. But now she really lost the mood and just asked anxiously: "What did the third brother say to Tong Youyang just now? Didn't two generals sent to the northwest? Why did I want my brother to come over again now?"

Qin Rong did not ask why she appeared here, and helped Yingying clean her face and then took the flower ornaments on her hair. Qin Rong held the person in her arms and combed her hair, explaining one by one: "Prince Qing has revealed too many secrets to Pingsha and Haowen. Now we have been defeated one after another. The two generals who went to the northwest have died and were injured, and they urgently need to send more people."

Although the Northwest War in this life took place earlier than the previous life, it seemed that nothing had changed. This battle was still fierce, with countless general soldiers killed and injured, and the war lasted for several years. It was not until Qin Rong, the emperor personally led the expedition to completely turn the situation around.

Is Qin Rong going to the battlefield in this life?

Yingying was in a depressed mood when she remembered the events in her previous life. Now that Qin Rong had not left, her brother went to the battlefield first. Yingying remembered the soul fragments that the system told her. As long as that thing was still on Gu Lingxiao, then he would be the most dangerous one when he went to the battlefield.

"Third brother, can't you let your brother go?" Yingying didn't trust Gu Lingxiao's ability, but was afraid that the spirit fragments would stimulate the "effect" at critical moments. Not only would it not protect Gu Lingxiao, but it would give him a fatal blow.

Qin Rong knew Yingying’s concerns, so he comforted softly: “Without Prince Qing, no one will send messages to Pingsha again. The one I didn’t let your brother go to the northwest to defend was Prince Qing. Now that he is dead, the battle situation in the northwest will soon be reversed.”

This seems to be a confrontation between two small countries and big countries, but in fact, there is a strong Nanyin Kingdom secretly supporting the fire. Qin Rong did not deceive Yingying and cut off the line between Prince Qing and Nanyin. Even if Pinghe and Haowen are united, they are not afraid.

Yingying was still worried, "I don't want my brother to go to the northwest."

Yingying couldn't forget the tragic deaths and injuries in the northwest of the previous life. Every few families in the imperial city where the white city was burning paper. The people cried and howled dozens of coffins covered with white cloth were pushed back from the imperial city, and all of them were generals who died in battle.

Yingying didn't know that the battle situation in her previous life was entirely caused by Prince Qing, and she didn't know whether the battle situation could be terminated early with Prince Qing's death. She only knew that she would definitely protect her brother in this life. She red eyes and pulled Qinrong's hand, begging him softly: "The third brother is going to think of a solution, it's too dangerous to the northwest."

Qin Rong shook his head, "The imperial edict has been issued, and your brother took the initiative to respond to this matter, and the third brother has no choice."

Gu Lingxiao took the initiative to respond to this matter. As a general, he was responsible for defending his country. If it weren't for the fact that Prince Qing had interfered with it before, he would have gone to the northwest long ago.

“…”

Because of Gu Lingxiao's upcoming battle, Yingying completely lost any thoughts.

After Qin Rong took her back to the bedroom, she learned that Gu Lingxiao was going to set off tomorrow morning, and such a hurry was not enough for her to say goodbye to her brother. Yingying was worried about Gu Lingxiao's safety, so she rushed to Qingguang Temple that day to pray for her brother and pray for peace.

Qin Rong couldn't pull herself away, and he didn't want to let Yingying go out and could not accompany her in person. In the end, she could only let her go to Qingguang Temple as the crown princess, send Youyang and Zuo Zhu to escort them with her, and protect the elite iron cavalry in the palace on both sides of the carriage.

Qin Rong's decision was right, because on the way out of the palace, Yingying did encounter two groups of assassins.

I don’t know if the assassin is too incompetent or the elite cavalry are too powerful, but these two groups of assassins are cleaned up before they can be found. Zuo Zhu, who is protecting Yingying’s carriage, snorted and said contemptuously: “I’m afraid they don’t know that the master has died long ago. With this time to make trouble, it’s better to think honestly about how to seek a way out.”

Youyang nodded and responded: "It's really stupid."

Waving in exchange for two secret guards to track the assassin's background, he tskated: "Your Highness is going to cut their nails. If you make such a fuss, I'm afraid they won't even be able to keep their hands behind you."
