Back on the mountain road, Zifen's injury has been bandaged. The carriage of the two was also helped by the little monk just now.

The White Deer Temple has also received news, not only sent people, but also brought two horses specially to help Wu Jie pack the carriage again, and send them back to Prince De's Mansion.

Back at the palace, it was already dusk.

A day's experience made Wu Jie exhausted. First let the little maid send Zifen down to recuperate, and invite a doctor to treat her. Then went to see Princess Lu in person.

Wu Jie didn't want to make her mother worry, but when she went out, the driver of the escort driver died, and it is impossible that several lives were not accounted for.

After listening to Wu Jie's narration, Princess Lu was frightened half to death, and only after a while did she pat her chest to calm down.

Immediately after that, her daughter was strictly ordered not to go out, and even the antidote for bee venom she had so hard to obtain was sent to the palace in person and sent to Concubine Lu Gui. As for Wu Jie entering the palace, it was impossible to even think about it.

Wu Jie could only obediently obey her mother and began to recuperate at home.

The mission of the Northern Wei Dynasty was assassinated, and even Gao Hongyuan, the deputy envoy, died in the wild. This incident caused an uproar in the Eastern Yue Dynasty. The public information is that Deputy Envoy Gao wanted to go into the mountains to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Danfeng, and traveled with dozens of guards in disguise, without even telling the envoy Yuan Zhe. They walked to the back mountain and were enjoying themselves when suddenly a group of assassins appeared with their heads covered.

Although Deputy Envoy Gao and the guards tried their best to resist, but the opponents were numerous and powerful, and their martial arts were strong, and they were hacked to death within a short time. them. Only a few lucky ones survived.

During the whole process, Wu Jie's name was not mentioned. Maybe it was because of the reputation of the women's family members that they deliberately kept it silent, or Master Guangxin specifically instructed them. This old and cunning guy should have understood from the moment he left the mountain that she didn't want Queen Chen to know about the medicine.

However, Prince De, who had been a little slack for two days, was busy again, and because of the crime of poor security, Prince De was fined for half a year.

After all, it is much lighter than the previous life, and my own efforts are still rewarded.

Listening to the news that Chi Rui inquired, Wu Jie sat in the room, thinking quietly. Although the assassin incident happened again, it didn't seem to have such a profound impact on the general situation of the two countries.

As for Gao Hongyuan's death... Although it was regret and fear at first, after these emotions passed, a secret pleasure suddenly rose in my heart.

Empress Gao's younger brother, ha, it's fine if he's dead! don't know if the honorable empress, after receiving the news in the palace, will be as in her previous life, grieve excessively and have a miscarriage?

Chi Rui watched her princess's expression change from a heavy one to a distorted smile, and couldn't help but shudder.

Trapped at home, the days pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Just yesterday, the alliance between East Vietnam and Northern Wei was finally finalized.

The death of Gao Hongyuan did not affect the overall situation. For the assassin incident, Emperor Zhengen apologized with the letter of state, and the Northern Wei Dynasty also readily stated that it would not pursue it. After all, it is easy for a shrewd person to guess who is going to attack the Northern Wei envoys. Especially this time it was not in a downtown area, and so many innocent people were not implicated.

Could it be possible to use Buddhist disciples as a shield? Not to mention that people were saved by Master Guangxin. The Northern Wei Dynasty was also a country that worshiped Buddhism, so it was absolutely impossible to do such a frenzied thing.

Empress Chen fell ill in the palace. Emperor Zhengen said that Empress Chen suffered from a serious illness and needed rest, and temporarily handed over the affairs of the Sixth Palace to Concubine Lu Gui to take charge of it.

In the end, although Dongyue and Northern Wei did not conclude a fraternal alliance, they also promised to be in-laws, and the prince was about to marry Qingning princess.

Hearing the news, Wu Jie wept with joy. Firstly, it was for herself. Looking back on her previous life, she also received the imperial decree to confer the princess on this day, and then went to the Northern Wei Dynasty to marry. difference.

The second is for the crown prince Wu Zhen. She has been in the harem of the Northern Wei Dynasty for many years. Wu Jie has met the Princess Qingning several times. She is a gentle and beautiful beauty with a peaceful and kind disposition. She is proficient in poetry and poetry. She is a rare talented woman in the Northern Wei Dynasty , and the prince brother is definitely a good match. Moreover, the most important thing is that Princess Qingning is the same mother and sister of Yuan Zhe, the prince in power. Marrying his own sister to Wu Zhen is enough to show Yuan Zhe's affirmation of Wu Zhen... Uh, it seems that the person who met was Forget it, don't care about yourself. But it can also be seen that Great Wei has sincerity towards Dongyue, a vassal state, and will not treat it too harshly in the future.

Everything is moving in a better direction.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, a grand banquet was held in the palace, Wu Jie's "foot restraint" finally came to an end, and Princess Lu brought her daughter to the palace for the banquet.

At the palace banquet, Empress Chen did not show up. After the covenant was finalized, she began to claim that she would not be sick.

The person who presided over the banquet became Lu Guifei. Without the strict empress Chen, the noble ladies of the imperial family and the wives inside and outside all relaxed, and the atmosphere at the banquet was intense.

Concubine Lu Gui smiled happily, and even Prince Wu Zhen, who had been ill for a long time, appeared at the banquet.

Master Guangxin's ointment really worked wonders, but within ten days, most of the abscess on Wu Zhen's face had disappeared, and seventy to eighty percent of his handsome complexion had recovered.

Seeing Wu Jie, he bowed his hands and said with a smile, "Thank you sister for your hard work."

Knowing that he is grateful for asking for medicine for him. Wu Jie smiled and said, "Sister, it's not hard work. It will be your Highness the Crown Prince who will have to work hard in the future."

Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the prince will organize the guard of honor and go on an envoy to the Northern Wei Dynasty. This trip is not only to submit the letter of credence on behalf of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but also to marry back the legendary Qingning princess.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the envoys of the Northern Wei Dynasty set off first.

And a month later, Prince Wu Zhen's fleet was finally fully prepared and embarked on a journey northward. The accompanying fleet was extremely large, and the thirty large ships not only carried all kinds of East Vietnam specialties, but also countless gold, silver and jewels. These would be dowry gifts for the Northern Wei Dynasty, in order to marry the Qingning Princess.

Because the draft of the ships was too heavy, the fleet did not sail along the river, but chose to take the sea route.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather became cooler and cooler. Even though the climate in East Vietnam was pleasant, it was unavoidably chilly.

Wearing a light green long dress embroidered with gold patterns, and a thin tulle cape over her shoulders, Wu Jie walked side by side with her sister in the back garden.

The mood has never been so relaxed and comfortable, just like this clear sky, without a shadow.

The two entered the back gazebo, where the maid had already set up a charcoal stove for barbecue.

"Let's eat honey-glazed venison today. Is it really as delicious as what the sisters of the He family bragged about last time?" The two talked and laughed all the way, and entered the gazebo.

The maid lit the charcoal, and the two sisters got together, turning the iron rack and iron fork, and the fresh venison was as thin as a cicada's wing, covered with a secret sauce. There was a sizzling sound on the fire, and after a while, the fragrance diffused.

Next to it are various vegetables and mushrooms, as well as fresh fish and shrimp, paired with sweet fruit wine.

Princess Lu also came over to have fun with her two daughters after finishing her day's affairs.

The bright red fruit wine was poured into the clear Yuguotian celadon cup, and Princess Lu looked at the two daughters with a smile, full of relief.

"Wan'er, you've already had three cups, you can't drink more than this." Wu Jie reminded her sister.

"I see, this year's rose dew is really sweet." Wu Wan drank her little face flushed, and shrank into her mother's arms.

Wu Jie's eyes fell on her mother and younger sister, and then she looked over the gazebo, looking at the infinitely clear sky outside and the bright and clear sunlight.

In this life, don't ask for much, as long as live in peace and happiness with family, and the years are quiet, don't have anything to ask for.

However, one moment he was still immersed in endless happiness, and the next moment, a bad news cruelly shattered this unparalleled happiness.

The hurried figure of Prince De appeared on the path at the end of the garden, his face pale and frightened.

Wu Jie couldn't help standing up.

Ever since she was a child, she had never seen such a tragic look on her father's face.

She wanted to ask, but suddenly a huge fear gripped her heart, making her unable to say anything.

"What's the matter?" It was Princess Lu who asked, following her daughter's gaze, she also saw her husband rushing towards him in a panic.

Prince De's lips trembled, before he said: "His Royal Highness's fleet has an accident! It is said...all capsized, and no one survived."

For a moment Wu Jie felt dizzy, and she could hardly believe the news she heard.

The fleet was destroyed, and no one survived! What does it mean?
