Watching from the sidelines, suddenly sneered silently.
Jing Hengbo looked at King Shang and sneered, looking so clean. That's right, she didn't show her face at that time, and she didn't have any witnesses. Presumably, the gift of clothes at that time had already arranged for today's scene.
Looking at King Shang's expression now, I am afraid that this dress is still quite entangled. The queen seems to want to use this dress to arouse a certain part of King Shang's shameful memories of her, so as to regain favor? Or is there another picture?
Pei Shu was originally standing beside Shang Yue, the Princess of Shang, but now he frowned and asked in a low voice, "What are your father and queen mother doing?"
Shang Yueyue glanced at him, her eyes flustered slightly. In the name of admiring Young Marshal Pei's literary talent and martial arts, the queen mother wanted to invite the young marshal to be the teacher of all princes and daughters. In the name of inviting the young marshal to the palace banquet, she originally thought there was no hope, who knew The young marshal actually agreed. As the daughter of the queen and the head of the princesses, she came forward to entertain the young marshal on behalf of her mother. In fact, this was the queen mother's arrangement. She was asked to seize the opportunity to win over the legendary **** of war. However, this problem, Involving the old secrets of the court of the Shang Dynasty, how can she say it?
She didn't say anything, Pei Shu's eyebrows gradually raised, making Shang Yueyue even more flustered. She originally thought that today was just a task, and although she was serious, she didn't pay attention to it. However, when she saw Pei Shu, she never expected that the God of War, who has been famous for many years, is still youthful, heroic and unparalleled, like a raging fire. Come, in an instant, it rolled over the embankment of peach blossoms in the girl's heart.
She was afraid that once the eyebrows fell, she would turn around and leave, so she could only say in a low voice: "This matter is a secret of my palace..."
"This dress was obviously given to the queen by your mother, why did she deny it in court?" Pei Shu interrupted her with a bad look.
"That's impossible!" Shang Yueyue said anxiously, "This dress has been sealed in the deepest part of the palace's most secret inner vault, and this dress... In short, it is absolutely impossible for the Queen Mother to give it away."
"And what?" Pei Shu was very sensitive and refused to let it go.
Shang Yueyue looked embarrassed. A young girl behind her suddenly sneered and said, "Eldest sister, why hesitate? Isn't it because of this dress, which was originally the queen's dress? The queen was canonized as the queen because she gave birth to the eldest son of the king. The canonization ceremony and the eldest son's The full moon ceremony was held at the same time. Who knew that this dress was poisoned, the eldest son of the king was poisoned to death in the arms of the queen, the father and the queen were in grief. This dress is the pain of our Shang royal family, the death of the royal family, and the queen The shameful memory and the reminder of the death of the father and the king, if it were not for the ominous burning of the empress dowager’s gown, the gown would have already turned to ashes. But it has been sealed forever since then, and I dare not let it see the light of day, how can I still take it out to give away people!"
She chuckled, and seemed to be talking to herself: "After so many years, now is the time to take it out, bring back the common memories of the king and the queen, arouse the king's sympathy, and the husband and wife will restore the old relationship. By the way, you can also remind the king that when the king He promised to make the queen's son the crown prince, but was dragged down because of the sudden death of the prince's eldest son, and finally changed the son of the side concubine to be the crown prince. Now that the queen's son has grown up, shouldn't it be time to fulfill the promise of the past? ..."
Shang Yueyue turned her head and glared at the girl, but the girl stared back without fear. The princesses of the royal family have burning eyes in the palace, and because of their different interests and positions, they do not give in to each other.
Pei Shu didn't have the heart to discuss the queen's plan of killing birds with one stone, he only noticed one sentence.
"The dress was poisoned?" He asked with burning eyes, "What kind of poison? Is it serious?"
"Wang's eldest son had red spots all over his body on the spot, spurted blood and died. Do you think it's terrible?"
Pei Shu's expression changed.
At this moment, the queen turned her head suddenly, and said to Jing Hengbo in a trembling voice, "How did you get this dress?"
Before Jing Hengbo could answer, someone had already answered, "Report to the Queen. Her Majesty the Queen once bought dresses on Jinxiu Street, but she couldn't find a suitable style. Maybe she took a fancy to your dress because of this, but I don't know."
Another person said: "It's a coincidence. The dresses of our noble ladies from the Shang Dynasty were all stolen last night and had to be re-customized. Could it be that these are all handwritten by Her Majesty the Queen?"
Jing Hengbo chuckled, propped his chin and said, "Yes. I am alone, with tens of thousands of clones. In one night, I went in and out of the inner palace of the King of Shang to steal the dresses, and then in the capital of the King of Shang, where I was not familiar with, I went in and out of countless high-ranking officials. Stealing dresses from the nobleman's mansion—this king really doesn't know, this king has such a great ability, should this king think about it, and the next moment he can flatten the emperor's song overnight?"
There was a whisper in the hall, and then someone said: "Maybe you have help!"
"That can only show that your Shang country is a waste!" Jing Hengbo said fiercely, "The strong dragon still doesn't overwhelm the snake. I, a queen with only a few hundred guards, can come and go freely in the palace of your Shang king's capital. The guards of your Shang country And the army, you can all die!"
"that is you…"
"Enough!" King Shang shouted, cutting off the rest of the discussion, then King Shang turned to Jing Hengbo, frowned and said solemnly, "The queen is a distinguished guest of our country, and you must not question it at will. It's just that this dress is of great importance, and it is ominous I absolutely dare not use it to bring disaster to the queen, and I ask the queen to return it to our country."
"That's right." The queen also mourned, "Back then, it was rumored that someone had poisoned the gown with a mixture of smallpox..."
As soon as the word "Skypox" was uttered, everyone's complexion changed drastically, and everyone around Jing Hengbo backed away three steps.
Jing Hengbo frowned when he saw their expressions of avoiding the plague, and asked Yongxue in a low voice, "What is smallpox?"
"It's also called smallpox." Yongxue said concisely, she didn't shrink back when she heard this terrible word, instead she took a step forward and stood in front of her.
Jing Hengbo gasped.
So ruthless.
She still knows about smallpox. In ancient times, it was a super-infectious and fatal disease!
Yeluqi suddenly stood up, and Pei Shu rushed down to the hall. Shang Yueyue grabbed his sleeve and said softly: "Don't worry, young commander, we will definitely have a way to help..."
Jing Hengbo raised his eyes to look at the palace, the queen was still smiling gracefully, a flash of lightning flashed in her heart, and she already understood this series of tricks.
Originally, I wondered how the noble ladies of the Shang Kingdom would jointly exclude her as the queen. After all, she was an outsider, and the host didn't even care about etiquette. It turned out that this was all hinted by the queen. The meaning of the queen, who dares to defy?
The noble ladies pushed her away from buying a dress, and the queen came out to be a good person when she was desperate and gave her a dress. She had no choice but to thank others for their help, so she would definitely wear a dress.
Then the dress will definitely attract the attention of the King of Shang, triggering a certain memory between the King of Shang and the Queen, which must be beneficial to the Queen, as can be proved by the expressions of the King of Shang and the Queen.
But what the queen wants is not just to use her to restore King Shang's feelings for her. This poisonous dress can control her, the Emerald Queen, and Pei Shu who is deeply in love with the Emerald Queen.
She remembered that the queen had a young son, who was very favored by the king of Shang, but the crown prince, Shang Lue, was in his prime, holding military power, and his position in the court was deeply entrenched, so it was difficult to shake for a while.
The youngest son of the queen lacks military power. If there is a strong foreign aid at this time, such as the **** of war Pei Shu, the weight will be greatly different. Everyone knows that the tortoiseshell army horses are all recruited and built by Pei Shu, which is equivalent to his direct descendants. Although there are not many people, they are very elite.
The poison put on her body can be used to blackmail Pei Shu, forcing him to bring his army horses back out of the black water, to become the consort of the Princess of Shang, and the powerful backing of the little prince of Shang.
In this way, the princess has a wishful husband, the prince has an army, and the queen has regained the pity of the king, so she has many capitals to fight for the throne for her youngest son.
As for her, the queen, after using her up, there is no need to consider so many consequences. If she is really provoked and sends troops to attack, Shang Lue is an adult prince in charge of the army, so it is natural for Shang Lue to fight. It is best to exhaust his troops, and death in battle is even more important. alright.
Jing Hengbo counted and counted, and it was really ingenious to the extreme. With a series of tricks, he could advance, attack, retreat, or defend, and he could trap the white wolf with nothing, without losing a cent to his side. A mere set of dresses, counting all the influential figures, the royal family's schemes.
Delicate, cold, meticulous, thoughtful.
Since Jing Hengbo traveled the wilderness, she is the most scheming royal woman that she has ever seen. Calm down, Skynet has been completed. Others can't even find the clues at all.
The only problem was that she didn't treat Jing Hengbo as an adult at all. Of course, in the eyes of Queen Shang, this was not inappropriate at all. Except for her son's throne, the rest is not important, even a daughter can be a victim of marriage, what is a foreign queen.
"Queen, please take off your clothes quickly!" Queen Shang was still in the hall, urging her with concern, "It's been a long time, I'm afraid I'll be poisoned..."
There were shallow laughter from all around, and someone whispered strangely: "Please hurry up and take off your clothes in the hall!"
Someone laughed loudly, "Just now we were making fun of our disheveled clothes, but now I'm doing well, I just want to take it off!"
Someone gloated, "Haha, look at her this time, whose clothes can she steal to change?"
Someone pretended to be sincere and thought with his chin, "This is not good. As a woman, she loses face and we don't look good. In this way, let her change into palace maid clothes."
"Naturally," someone spread out his hands, "Apart from this, how can there be a dress for her?"
"Hey, don't talk too much, I heard that the queen is very powerful. Maybe she really has a dress for a change?"
"Yes, maybe there are many sets waiting for her to change."
"Then take it out quickly."
"Haha, if she really takes it out, we'll eat the floor of this hall!"
…
Laughing again and again, Yeluqi had already walked to Jing Hengbo's side, and said in a low voice, "How?"
The two looked at each other, Jing Hengbo's lips curved into a sneer, and he stretched out his hand to slowly untie the button.
The ladies around watched her move and laughed even more happily.
Jing Hengbo was also laughing.
Do these idiots really think that other people are as stupid as them?
Ji Min came over suddenly, took off her cloak, and handed it to her. Jing Hengbo was taken aback. Although she didn't need it, she still felt warm for this action in the face of the maliciousness in the hall.
Even Yeluqi looked back at Ji Min softly, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.
But Ji Wen didn't seem to care, and stepped aside with a smile.
Jing Hengbo took off his clothes slowly, thinking in his heart how he would use the most ruthless force to incite those vicious people back.
The malice of the world can only be slapped back with a louder slap.
The crowd stayed far away from the side of the hall, surrounded her with sneering looks, and the eyes of watching the show.
Queen Shang raised a graceful and satisfied smile, because she saw that her daughter had successfully pulled Marshal Pei back.
As for the dress, she knew that even if the queen took it off now, it would be too late, because she was afraid that the poison would lose its effect over time, so she deliberately added the poison again. Immediately the queen will not dare to retaliate, and she will come to ask her for help first.
Or, she can also bargain with the queen and get some benefits from the Jade Department. After all, life is the most important thing, isn't it?
Suddenly, the sound of a long-lasting report came.
"Report - VIPs will be delivered by limousines!"
Then, there was the sound of a rumbling carriage, and everyone was startled, thinking what kind of carriage could drive straight to the front of the main hall?
The king of Shang also looked surprised, and said loudly to the outside of the hall: "Where is the guest! Didn't I say that without permission, any distinguished guest is not allowed to drive to the front of the hall in a carriage!"
"Your Majesty!" A guard jumped out from the back of the car, walked quickly to the hall, and knelt down in front of King Shang, "The guest holds the highest-level invitation card. I dare not stop you, so please show me your Majesty!"
King Shang was startled, and suddenly took a step forward.
Everyone roared and looked at each other.
Everyone understands the meaning of the highest rank, which means that the honored guests who are invited are already higher than the King of Shang. Either it refers to political status, or it refers to an extremely high-ranking person who is unrivaled in the world and no one can offend. When such a person comes, even the King of Shang himself should welcome him out of the palace. It is nothing like a horse-drawn carriage driving straight in.
The invitation sent by the guard was indeed the highest-level invitation card with a gold base and white jade inlays, but the name column had been erased.
The King of Shang hurriedly adjusted his clothes, put on his crown, and prepared to welcome him. He thought that he only issued three copies of the highest-level invitation, but it was only out of respect, and he did not expect anyone to come. Who is it that came back?
The queen was also hastily pulling back her skirt to touch up her makeup, while the rest of the people were in a panic and returned to their positions.
At this moment, the carriage had already arrived at His Royal Highness, and several guards flashed out and moved several large boxes down.
The guard who carried the box opened the box at the bottom of the steps.
The colorful embroidery was brilliant, and the brilliance was dazzling. The women who approached the gate of the palace let out a "wow" in amazement.
"The dress!" Someone couldn't help exclaiming, "What a beautiful dress! It's not quite the same as ours, but...really...so special!"
As soon as they heard that it was clothes, many people disregarded etiquette and poked their heads to look. They saw a set of exquisite and luxurious dresses neatly folded in the box. The silk was as smooth as the moon, and the brocade was as bright as the sun. It is the neon lights in the sky, setting off each other with indescribable brilliance.
Just looking at it so casually, everyone suddenly felt that the clothes on them were gaudy and crude.
Like a village girl standing in front of a noble princess, she sees the dust all over her body more and more clearly in her gorgeous eyes.
The box is very big, enough to hold several sets of dresses, and there are four such boxes.
It was obvious that it was a gift, and everyone looked at it eagerly, thinking that such a gift should be for the Queen of Shang, right? She is the only one who deserves such a precious gift, right?
The Queen herself seemed to think so, for she beamed, raised her head, adjusted her breathing, and assumed the most graceful gesture of gratitude.
The guards lifted the boxes, and someone unloaded a row of smaller boxes, and opened them in the same way.
"Wow" was another exclamation, louder than before.
This time the box was full of jewellery.
Gold and silver are no longer worthy to exist here. There are gems and pearls the size of pigeon eggs everywhere, top-quality emeralds with hexagrams shining, opals whose precious light flows like mysterious eyes, obsidian as black as deep hell, and red as red lotuses. The pure agate coral, the blue diamond as deep and clear as the blue lake water, the pink gemstone as tender and delicate as the peach blossom in the new spring... These top-quality gemstones and jade, each of which surpassed the best gemstones of the previous ladies , inlaid in all kinds of ingenious shapes, never repeated, and various jewelry accessories that are absolutely not sold on the market, those collars, heads, rings, bead chains, earrings, belts... Those gorgeous colors, shining light, exquisite The style, the extreme splendor superimposed a suffocating feeling, the girls' faces were flushed, their breaths were short of breath, and they clutched their collars tightly. Even the eyes of some princesses who were used to the scene were shining, and they felt that although this life was rich, but until Today, I really understand what real wealth is.
The row of small boxes was carried in as well.
The following guard just took down a box and hugged it in his arms. People held their breaths and poked their heads out, wanting to see what they could see this time, but the guard didn't open the box.
Judging by his extraordinarily careful posture, it seemed that the box contained treasures that were more precious than the previous few boxes, and everyone was more itchy because of this, and followed closely with their eyes.
Another person moved a box, which seemed to be full of medicines this time. People who understand pharmacology found that it was full of the best anti-cold medicines, those extremely precious medicines that had no price but no market. They put it in the box, and someone even found a fiery red Zhenyang Pill, which is said to be able to increase the power of fire-type practitioners for ten years. Tucked in the corner of the box.
Women are not interested in this box of things, but it almost makes men stare out their eyes.
Then there was another small box of things, this time it was not opened again, but when passing by the crowd, many people smelled a sour but sweet smell, which seemed to be eating.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay - the first thing is so precious, the finale is to eat? Is the gap too big?
The group of guards carrying things went straight into the hall and came up to the hall.
The king of Shang was full of joy, and the queen raised her hand gracefully, ready to accept the gift and thank her with the most beautiful gesture.
But the group of people suddenly turned around, turned sideways, and stood in front of Jing Hengbo in a row.
The whole hall was dead silent for a moment.
Jing Hengbo was also taken aback, not expecting such a godlike turning point.
The guards at the front put down the suitcases they were carrying, bowed in front of her, and said loudly:
"The brocade clothes and clothes are presented to the beauty, please accept them from Your Majesty the Queen."
Immediately they retreated, and the guards in the second row followed, raised the jewelry box held in both hands above their heads, and sent it in front of her.
Amidst the sound of panting, Jing Hengbo turned his head abruptly—he was almost blinded by the flash.
The loud voices of the guards saluting their salutes almost deafened her ears, and she doubted that even the Kingdom of Yu could hear them.
"Treasures in the world are not as good as Qing, please enjoy it, Your Majesty the Queen!"
The second row puts down the box and retreats. There was only one person in the third row, who stepped forward and bowed to her.
"Let's do it when it's time to do it, Your Majesty the Queen will appreciate it!"
The box popped open, and Jing Hengbo saw his ten-inch stiletto leopard-print high-heeled shoes at a glance.
The shock was too violent, she opened her mouth, and stopped with an "ah".
You can guess that his situation will change suddenly, but you can't guess that this style of painting will change.
Her heart suddenly jumped violently, and she couldn't help but look outside the hall.
This... this is him, is it here?
is it possible?
The fourth row was also a person, stepped forward, raised his hands, and delivered the last box.
"This thing suits my mood the most, please enjoy it, Her Majesty the Queen!"
With a "pop", the lid of the box popped open, and a sour yet sweet aroma burst out, and Jing Hengbo's cheekbones were immediately drool-full.
She stared dumbfounded at the pale yellow translucent solidification in the porcelain jar in the box.
"This, this, this..."
It seems, as if, maybe, probably... apricot jam?
Apricot jam?
The grand finale of this climax is apricot jam?
The whole hall was silent, everyone was staring, and their eyes were turning around on the beautiful clothes, dazzling treasures, precious medicines, strange high-heeled shoes, and apricot jam. They really didn't know whether to exclaim or spray.
"Get out of the way." Suddenly Pei Shu jumped down from the hall, and the young marshal looked vigilant, pushed the guards away, stood in front of Jing Hengbo, took her back a few steps, and said, "These unidentified people are here. Also, are you sure that your clothes are okay? That vicious woman may still have a back hand, so don’t be too confident and careless. It’s better to take them off first..." Then he said Go to Jiejing Hengbo's neckline buttons.
Jing Hengbo's mind was in a mess, and before he could figure it out, he subconsciously stepped back and stretched out his palm to block his wolf's claws.
"go!"
Suddenly a stream of light flew through the dense crowd and shot directly at Pei Shu. Before it arrived, there was a whistling sound, piercing everyone's eardrums like a sharp sword.
Pei Shu was sneering and ignoring him, but suddenly his expression changed, his head suddenly turned to the side, and with a hissing sound, the thing passed by his ear, and shot on the hard alchemy, right inlaid on the embossed horned dragon eye. .
Look carefully, but it is an apricot core.
As soon as the fragile apricot core was shot into the stone, the strength of the opponent's finger was astonishingly obvious, Pei Shu's expression changed, and he suddenly turned his head.
At the entrance of the hall, at some point, a figure appeared.
The figure was backlit, and its appearance could not be seen, only a tall and tall figure with loose clothes and long sleeves standing in the light gray shadow, lofty and dignified.
A faint voice said coldly:
"My people, you can't touch them."
…
