"Why did you suddenly notice him?" Hu Tang glanced at the seventeenth prince from a distance, and said with some disdain, "He, I can't even compare."

Hearing Hutang's tone, Jiang Rao asked in surprise, "Have you tried it with him?"

She didn't set off before, and although Hutang and Hutang were not inseparable, she knew a lot about Hutang, and she had never heard her say anything about her relationship with the Seventeenth Prince.

"After a match, I won."

Hutang pointed his finger at Adanu again, "That Qiang warrior over there has infinite natural strength. I can tell just by looking at this kind of person that I can't compare to him."

Jiang Rao followed her words and thought about it in a circle, but she understood what Hu Tang meant.

She took herself as a reference, and came to tell her that the seventeenth prince should not be able to compete with the warriors of Fanbang.

Jiang Rao held her cheek slightly and thought about it carefully. Although she thought it was strange, she couldn't think of any method the queen used. She had just returned from Ruixian County to Jinling, and she had not returned to Ning Anbo's house. After going, he listened to Rong Ting's words and entered the palace first.

Rong Ting arranged this, she believed him and came.

Came to catch up with the martial arts test.

It's a bit of a torture to watch the Seventeenth Prince in the limelight.

Hu Tang stayed beside her, and it was rare to be quiet.

She knew that Jiang Rao was going south to Huaizhou. She came back so early. She must have encountered something on the way and failed to make it.

Jiang Rao didn't look unhappy at the moment, all she could do was not to mention Jiang Rao's sadness, not to mention the ninth prince.

So as not to mention it and make her sad, she doesn't know how to coax people.

Hutang sat on the side boredly, quietly watching the silhouettes passing by in the center of the martial arts field, and suddenly frowned, "Today's competition, I'm afraid it won't be able to compare."

Jiang Rao followed Hutang's gaze and looked over.

The Qiang warrior Adanu was helped down.

"Injured?" Jiang Rao asked.

"It looks like this." Hutang turned around, "What happened in the palace just now?"

Hu Tang held his cheeks and said with some regret: "I originally heard that I would come to the martial arts field this time, but I thought I would have the opportunity to see a hearty competition. It was so hard to clean up the field but it was useless, it was really disappointing. ."

"Who won the competition in Fangcai Palace?" Hutang had been in the martial arts field, but he had not seen the competition in Qingluantai, so he asked Jiang Rao itchingly.

Jiang Rao said in a low voice, "The seventeenth prince."

Hu Tang was stunned for a moment, "He?"

Did he really win? "

Jiang Rao heard that Hutang was emotional and looked up at her.

She looked at people quietly, and she told people to talk about sex, Hu Tang said: "The last time I tried the whip with him, he was defeated, and he has been pestering me to try again, I said if he was A warrior who can win over the Qiang tribe will accompany him to the end." She lowered her head, her tone a little annoyed, "I feel like his cat almost scratched you when I talk to him, and I don't think it's worth talking to such a person. ."

She scratched at her hair irritably, and collapsed a little. Jiang Rao took Hutang's hand and said softly, "Didn't you say you won the seventeenth prince once, and the seventeenth prince won the Qiang warrior, doesn't that mean you are better than the Qiang warrior?"

"Hee, you're right." Hutang thought for a while, and then turned around and smiled at Jiang Rao, looking a little shameless. She pointed at herself triumphantly, "Hutang Hutang is number one in the world."

"Yes." Jiang Rao laughed along with her, her eyes curved like stars and a picturesque smile, "Tang'er is number one in the world."

Hutang looked at Jiang Rao's smile and felt that it was rare and rare.

She thought that Jiang Rao would return without success, and she should wash her face in tears.

She was smiling so nicely now, which was a bit unexpected for her.

Hutang really wanted to ask Jiang Rao what she had gone through in the south, but she didn't dare to ask in front of Jiang Rao. When Jiang Rao turned around and asked the palace servants to ask when she would return to the palace, she grabbed Ming Shao and said, "Your girl Going south this time, where did you come back? What happened?"

Ming Shao picked up what she could answer, "I went back from Ruixian."

But more than that, wouldn't say it.

Hu Tang was slightly disappointed in her heart, and her face was sullen. Jiang Rao saw her sullen expression when she came back. In exchange, she thought she remembered her bet with the seventeenth prince, and was thinking about what to do. After coaxing again, Ming Shao stepped forward and said hesitantly, "Miss Hu wants to know what she has encountered when she goes south."

Jiang Rao laughed immediately.

She was thinking about Hutang's uncontrollable temperament, why she was so quiet, and didn't ask her how she came back from Huaizhou, and changed her mind for a while.

She knew that the people around her pampered her, protected her, and took into account her mood, so she whispered to Ming Shao, "It's good for me."

Hutang raised her eyes, feeling a little depressed and remorseful. She clearly resisted asking Jiang Rao, but she couldn't resist asking Jiang Rao's maid, but the result was different, and she was going to poke Jiang Rao's sore spot.

She has too few friends, and in the circle of noble women, she is afraid to make Jiang Rao unhappy.

"There are so many people

Miscellaneous eyes, there are some things I didn't open to tell you clearly. "

Jiang Rao could see that Hutang looked sad, she leaned against Hutang's ear and said to her, "I will go to the palace in a while, wait for me to come back, and find a time to find you tomorrow."

...

The carriage returning to the palace stopped in front of the palace gate, took the sedan and headed north. Jiang Rao returned to Concubine Yun. She had nothing to do. Since she had doubts in her heart, she followed the matter that made her suspicious. down.

She still felt that the Seventeenth Prince was able to defeat the warriors of Fanbang, and there was something hidden in it.

The palace maid who went to inquire came back and said to Jiang Rao, "Adanu seems to have contracted the cold and is exhausted. It can't be compared. The imperial physician has already arrived at his place."

Jiang Rao asked, "Is the imperial physician appointed by the queen?"

When Jiang Rao does things, as long as she doesn't let her use needles and lines, she is always serious, and her attitude makes Concubine Yun become more serious, "Nian Nian really think that the alien named Adanu is caught in the queen's trap? "

"It's just intuition, not true."

Jiang Rao thought with her soft brows down, even if there was something arranged by Empress Jia and Queen in this matter, it would take some time to investigate it. But seven days later, the envoy who paid tribute was going to leave the capital. Just because she had a vague idea, she went to the end. If she found nothing in the end, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

But when she thought that the person was the queen, she wanted to check it out even if she was wasting her efforts.

Jiang Rao knocked on the head and had a headache.

A team of robe guards passed by, Jiang Rao heard the sound, raised her eyes and glanced there, and caught a glimpse of one of the white robes, her brows wrinkled, and she felt that the figure looked like Rong Ting.

When entering Jinling was separated, he let her enter the palace, and told her that he would handle some things, and she would also enter the palace. If it wasn't because of his words that she just came out of the martial arts field, she would definitely go back to Ning Anbo's mansion directly.

When we arrived at Shuxiang Palace, someone from the palace hurriedly handed over the news, "Four girls, the emperor invites you to come to the Golden Palace."

Jiang Rao and Qin Yun looked at each other, and both were a little surprised.

Generally, when Emperor Zhaowu came to Shuxiang Palace to invite people, he would only invite Concubine Yun Gui to go there. How could Jiang Rao be invited?

Concubine Yun Gui wanted to go with Jiang Rao, when a mama in a gray jacket came over, Concubine Yun recognized that it was the mama who was in charge of the cloth expenses of each palace from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and felt even more strange in her heart.

She has not received divine favor in the past six months. The figures of these two maids are rare in Shuxiang Palace.

The gray coat mama came to Concubine Yun Gui, "The new satin from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the emperor saw that the empress was dressed simply today, and ordered the servants to bring the empress to choose."

Concubine Yun Gui thanked her for her kindness, but her brows twitched slightly. She didn't know what medicine was sold in Emperor Zhaowu's gourd, so she hesitated. Jiang Rao had a vague guess in her heart, and she leaned into Concubine Yun Gui's ear and said, "Auntie, you can go."

Just now, he saw the white-robed figure in the middle of Jinyiwei. Maybe it was Rong Ting. He may have met Emperor Zhaowu and said something to the emperor.

She followed behind the palace servants all the way to the Golden Palace. She thought she could see Rong Ting, but she only saw Emperor Zhaowu and Empress Jiahe.

In exchange for the envoys from Fanbang.

The Panbang envoy looked at Jiang Rao with a sullen face.

Jiang Rao looked at the people in the hall suspiciously, but she couldn't figure out what was going on in the scene in front of her.

Her face was calm, and she bowed to the emperor and the queen.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at Empress Jiahe, who was sitting beside Emperor Zhaowu.

Empress Jiahe, with a faint weeping expression on her face, snuggled up beside Emperor Zhaowu, "She is the one who instigated people to slander this palace, and it is she who wants to ruin this palace's reputation."

Jiang Rao was at a loss, and Emperor Zhaowu said solemnly, "Someone sent me a secret letter just now, saying that Adanu lost to the seventeenth prince because he was given medicine in the meal."

"But the imperial physician has found out that Adanu's sudden weakness is just a symptom and has nothing to do with medicine."

With tears in her eyes, the queen insisted on pouring dirty water on Jiang Rao, "She just wanted to frame her concubine."

She did this carefully, not to mention that the person who prescribed the medicine was the dead man of the Xu family, the medicine would not affect the pulse condition, even if the imperial physician was not from her side, she had replaced the imperial physician who was not familiar with her to help Ada. Trying to diagnose the pulse will only say that he has been running around for a long time, involving his body, and he will suddenly become weak, and it will not be seen by others. He has been prescribed medicine in the food he has eaten.

It would take seven days for the medicinal effect to pass, and in seven days... it was time for these Qiang people to leave the capital.

But she didn't expect that someone noticed her movements.

She swept her gaze towards Jiang Rao with disgust, but cried towards Emperor Zhaowu, "The palace servant beside Caichen's concubine saw that it was from Miss Jiang's Fourth Girl, and borrowed the hand of Jin Yiwei and handed a secret letter to His Majesty. "

The queen said with a heartache: "If people really misunderstood Ben Gong's medicine, Ben Gong doesn't care about himself, but is worried that the envoys will misunderstand our Da Zhao and break the diplomatic relations between the two ethnic groups. The little girl's family, this kind of method uses It’s nothing more than being in the house, let her parents teach her a lesson, how can she be allowed to mess around with the state affairs?”

Just now, she saw the palace servants at Shuxiang Palace poking their brains here, as if they wanted to inquire about something, and the secret letter that wrote the complaint must be Jiang Rao.

It was she who underestimated this girl, and in just a short time when she came back, she even asked her to figure out what happened to her drug use.

Listening to the Queen's words, the envoy shook his head and looked at Jiang Rao with a bit of annoyance in his eyes.

Jiang Rao clenched her fingers and waited for the chance to speak.

She thought that Emperor Zhaowu had finally changed his mind when he asked the mammy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to take her aunt to look at the fabric.

But looking at the current appearance, it is clear that the change is to favor the queen.

Someone from the palace handed the letter to Jiang Rao.

"Is this letter written by Miss Jiang?"

Emperor Zhaowu's voice was so cold that Jiang Rao's body shivered.

Jiang Rao frowned, didn't even look at the letter, gritted her teeth, and said, "Not a servant girl."

She thought it was strange that the Seventeenth Prince had won against Adanu, and she only said that it was just intuition.

The letter exchange was shoved in front of Jiang Rao.

Jiang Rao inadvertently glanced at the small characters in the corner of the letter, looking at the handwriting, she suddenly trembled, raised her eyes, and followed her all the way, until she swept the entire chapter, she was stunned.

That handwriting...

It was clearly Rong Ting's word.

So, she guessed right. Empress Jiahe really moved his hands and feet, so that the seventeenth prince could defeat Adanu.

But she quickly looked up at Emperor Zhaowu again, his hand was on the back of Empress Jiahe, a gesture of comfort and closeness.

Emperor Zhaowu was heading towards Empress Jiahe.

Whoever writes the letter will be convicted of slander.

Jiang Rao snatched the letter at once. Fearing that someone would snatch it, she bent down and shredded the rice paper with trembling fingers.

Can't ask more people to recognize the writing on it.

"It's a servant girl." She lowered her head, her fingers trembling, but said loudly.

"It's my son."

What fell at the same time as her voice was a voice from outside the hall.

Outside the Golden Palace, on the white jade steps, a tall and slender figure slowly walked up.

Steady and powerful footsteps are getting closer.
