Chapter 237

"I want to go back."

Song Baoling stood at the door looking at the night sky, feeling a little depressed, "When I was at home, I always wanted to run out to see what it was like outside, but now that I'm gone, I miss the capital again."

"Hopefully things here can be sorted out as soon as possible and we can go home right away without delay."

Seeing her homesickness, Jun Tingsheng didn't know how to tell her what she was about to do, but if the matter was delayed, their situation would be disadvantageous.

"Ling'er, I received a secret letter from Lord Hou today."

"You mean... Daddy?"

Jun Tingsheng nodded, and then took out the letterhead from his arms, "Master Hou said that in case the Xianqi Kingdom rebelled, let us check their military deployment and control before going back."

After reading the contents of the letter, Song Baoling couldn't help but feel even more worried. Now their situation is already difficult. If it is to investigate the deployment and control of troops, the difficulty will be more than doubled.

She is fine, after all, she is a daughter, so she will not attract too much danger, but Jun Tingsheng is different.

"What do you think?"

Jun Tingsheng was silent for a moment, and said firmly: "Judging from the current situation, the two countries will definitely have a war, so it is not unreasonable for Lord Hou to deploy in advance."

"Ling'er, leave it to me to investigate the strength of the troops. You just need to ensure your own safety."

Song Baoling didn't want him to worry, so he smiled and nodded at him: "Well, we should cooperate internally and externally, finish these things early, and then go home together."

For some reason, upon hearing the word 'go home', Jun Tingsheng felt as if he had eaten honey.

Two days later, Yemuna's health improved significantly. While chatting with the queen, he suddenly proposed to hold a flower viewing feast in the palace.

The queen is a lover of flowers, so many things have happened in the palace this month, so it's time to have some fun.

"Flower feast?"

Song Baoling had a wrong expression on her face, thinking that she had heard it wrong, but she didn't believe it was true until she saw Jun Tingsheng nodding.

"Yamuna is such a proud and conceited person. He just broke his leg. How could he have the intention to hold a flower viewing feast? In my opinion, the Hongmen Banquet is not bad."

Jun Tingsheng chuckled, "What you said is indeed reasonable. I heard that he also invited Yemuqi, Princess Linglong, and even the emperor and queen."

"So many people are on the banquet list, presumably what he is going to plan is not a trivial matter, we have to be careful."

The two of them had the same idea. At night, Song Baoling went over the recent affairs before going to bed, and after finding that there was nothing wrong, he fell asleep in peace.

On the day of the flower viewing party——

In order to allow the emperor and nobles to enjoy the flowers with peace of mind, Yemuna ordered people to build a viewing platform, and Shu Ning, who is the future princess, also helped a lot.

"At the beginning, I was worried that Shu Ning would not adapt to the life in Xianqi Kingdom. Now it seems that you not only adapted, but also took good care of the prince."

"Thank you for your compliment, Empress. Shu Ning just did everything well with her heart, but she still doesn't understand many things very well, and I will have to trouble my empress to teach you a thing or two in the future."

"You are so smart, you will definitely be able to teach it as soon as you teach it, so don't worry."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Yemuna was very satisfied, turned his head and said to the emperor: "My Majesty, now my body has recovered more than half, I want to marry Ning'er as soon as possible, and I hope the Emperor will allow it."

The emperor was worried that if their marriage could not proceed smoothly, it would affect the relationship between the two countries. Now that Yamuna took the initiative to mention the marriage, there is no reason why he should not agree.

"This is a good thing, I agree."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yemuna turned her head to look at the person beside her, and when her eyes met, Shu Ning lowered her head shyly.

Witnessing this scene, Song Baoling felt worried. She was sure that Yemuna didn't really like Shu Ning, and even if she took the initiative to mention getting married, she must have other purposes.

After the flower viewing banquet began, the crowd gradually dispersed, walking in groups of twos and threes, watching the flowers and green plants in the garden.

"Sister Linger."

Linglong cheerfully ran to Song Baoling, took her hand regardless of her status and etiquette, "Come on, I'll introduce you to the flowers of our Xianqi country."

The two walked happily to one side. Because Jun Tingsheng was worried that Yemu would trick him, he was staring at Song Baoling the whole time, and followed them not too far or too close at this time.

When passing by the lake, everyone stopped to watch. There were many lotus flowers blooming in the lake, and even the goldfish came out to play.

"Hey, who is that?"

"I can't see clearly, it seems to be... Concubine Lou?"

Song Baoling heard the word 'Louis Concubine' at the tip of his ear, and immediately followed their eyes, only to see Lou Guifei running fast not far away.

More and more people saw Concubine Lou Gui, including the emperor and empress, but before the two had time to talk, things changed.

For some unknown reason, Concubine Lou went straight to the lake, only then did everyone remember that she could not see.

The next moment, Concubine Lou Gui suddenly fell into the lake, she was thumping in the water with a face full of horror, and shouted to the air for help.

"Quick! Save someone quickly..."

Someone yelled loudly, and then everyone realized that Song Baoling wanted to save others by himself, but Jun Tingsheng calmly stopped her as soon as she made a move.

"You can't go."

Jun Tingsheng whispered softly, and then comforted her: "Don't worry, the imperial concubine will be fine."

At this time, Song Baoling realized that someone had already jumped into the lake to save others, but that person...

Yamqi? !

For a moment, Song Baoling suddenly thought of something, she turned her head to look at the queen, saw a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and felt bad in her heart.

"Mother, how are you? Is there anything wrong?"

Yemuqi supported the drenched Concubine Lou, and asked eagerly, but Concubine Lou had just been frightened and choked on water in the lake, so she couldn't respond to him for a while.

A group of people came in front of the mother and son, the emperor looked at the pale concubine Lou with distress, and was about to step forward to care, but was interrupted by the empress first.

"Concubine Lou, you were imprisoned in the cold palace because of your mistakes, why did you come out without authorization today?"

Concubine Lou Gui who was paralyzed on the ground heard the words, straightened up and knelt on the ground trembling, "Go back to the empress, my concubine...it's not...that I want to leave the cold palace, my concubine..."

Before she could finish explaining, the queen interrupted sharply: "There is no rule without rules, you should understand this truth."

"No matter what the reason is today, since you left the cold palace privately, you must be punished!"

Yemuqi clenched his fists angrily, stepped forward and directly protected Concubine Lou behind him, and looked at the queen with a cold face, "Empress, my mother and concubine can't see, how could she come here from the cold palace alone?"

"There is something strange, why don't you wait until the matter is cleared up before making a decision, why bother to punish the concubine mother in such a hurry."
