One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Ever since they returned to the palace, Shen Ninghua had been keeping an eye on the news. However, when he saw that Baili Anqing was about to be married off, everything was calm and peaceful. Nothing had happened.

Bai Yu helped Shen Ninghua grind the ink, and with an astonished look in his eyes, he looked at Shen Ninghua drawing a Spring Festival Diagram. Hong Ling quickly walked in from outside and said,

"Miss, something has happened!"

Shen Ninghua put down her pen and asked, "What happened?"

Hong Ling took a deep breath and quickly said, "Please let this servant monitor that Rui Xue, and this servant will send someone to watch her. I found out that she was placed in a yard and never saw Yang Lin again, and originally I thought that nothing would happen to her, but last night, when Rui Xue went to sleep, the people who went to monitor her saw a poisonous scorpion crawl into her room, and I was afraid something would happen, so I carefully went in, but I didn't expect that she wasn't in the room!"

Shen Ninghua suddenly frowned, "It's not in the room?"

Hong Ling bit her lips. "Originally, our people waited until that Rachel had gone to sleep, and then watched from the outside. Who would have thought that Rachel had mysteriously disappeared from the room! Miss, please punish me! "

Shen Ninghua knitted his brows and looked at her, "Get up. This matter is really unexpected, no wonder you are here." It's impossible for people to disappear into thin air. Have you noticed that there's a secret passage in that room? "

Hong Ling looked even more ashamed. "The people who went to investigate had searched for a long time, but they didn't find anything."

She was clear on the strength of the people trained by the red caltrop selection, they were definitely not someone who was just for show. Since they did not realize it, it could only mean that the other party was much more skilled than them, "Hong Ling, don't act rashly, let all of our people withdraw. Since it's already like this, there's no use monitoring them any further, let's just wait and see."

"Yes, miss."

Bai Yiyan brought in a basin of water. When Hong Ling reported her earlier, Shen Ninghua paused, staining a little ink on her hands. "Miss, please wash your hands."

Shen Ninghua lowered his head to look at the black patch on his finger and said absentmindedly, "Our surveillance on Rui Xue has failed. There should be a problem with Chu Junyi's surveillance on Yang Lin." "Hong Ling, has Prince Consort come back from the palace?"

"Miss, are you done yet?"

Shen Ninghua knitted her brows, "Mm, I'll ask him to come to my side when he comes back."

"Yes, miss."

Shen Ninghua slowly withdrew her gaze, her dark eyes glimmering with cold starlight as she said, "There are still three more days before the wedding ceremony, I hope nothing bad will happen."

It wasn't until the sky turned dark that Chu Junyi returned to the pavilion. She was covered in a cold wind. "Are you looking for me, Ning Hua?"

"Why did you come back so late? Can I eat late?"

Chu Junyi's expression was dark as she shook her head. "Not yet."

Shen Ninghua turned to look at Bai Yan and said, "Bai Yan, go prepare some food."

"Yes, miss."

After Bai Yiyi left, Shen Ninghua turned to look at Chu Junyi, his eyes filled with concern. "Jun Yi, I can see that you're acting a bit weird. Is something wrong with the palace?"

Chu Junyi raised her head, and her clear, cold eyes flashed with a cold light. "I've received news from the northwest."

Northwest? Hundred Li Jin Chuan!

"He's already reached the northwest?" There should still be two days before the deadline. Could it be that his current physical condition allowed him to travel day and night?

Chu Junyi's eyes grew even darker. "He didn't worry about his health. He travelled day and night without a break. He only needed ten days to get to the northwest. As soon as he arrived, he received news of his victory."

Chu Junyi sounded impressed. Even though she and Baili Jinchuan had been enemies due to Shen Ninghua, she appreciated his ability to do so. If Baili JinChuan was unfavorable to Ning Hua again, he would still kill him. But now, he didn't care about travelling day and night for the sake of war, he wouldn't go against his will to belittle him.

Shen Ninghua retracted her gaze and frowned slightly. "The date of the peaceful wedding is approaching. A good report has been sent from the northwest. It seems that there will be no news regarding what is happening in the imperial court."

Chu Junyi stepped forward and took Shen Ninghua in her arms. She sighed with emotion. "I'm so worried, Ninghua."

Shen Ninghua's eyes twitched. "Worried?"

Chu Junyi pursed her lips, a gentle look in her eyes. "That's right. Worry. Who told my wife to be so beautiful that she attracted so many wolves. If I'm not careful, my wife will be taken away by the wolves."

Shen Ninghua paused for a moment. She suddenly realized that Chu Junyi's expression was obviously faked. With a sudden curve of her lips, she slowly wrapped her arms around his waist and whispered, "Husband …"

Chu Junyi froze for a moment. "Cool …" Could that expression just now have been so serious that it really made Ning Hua sad? Ever since they got married, Ning Hua had never called him husband …

Shen Ninghua tightened her arms, her slender fingers directly pinching his waist. "Worried, huh?"

Chu Junyi gritted her teeth in pain. "I might be surrounded by wolves, but I'm the best hunter here. Don't worry!"

Shen Ninghua's smile grew wider. Her fingers tightened even more as she replied, "The wolf took it away, huh?"

The last word was' yes', and it had a faint tinge to it that made Chu Junyi's body go numb. "I'll tear off any wolf that dares to open its mouth!"

Only then did Shen Ninghua let go of his hand, turning around and pushing him away. "Bai Yu, bring the food here."

Bai Yan, who had stopped by the door, lowered his head to cover his laughter. He placed the meal on the table and quickly retreated.

Chu Junyi shook her head with a wry smile. "Ning Hua, you're being too ruthless." Shen Ninghua smiled and said, "You're still not being honest even like this. If you don't go all out, you wouldn't even know what you're doing."

Chu Junyi had been staying in the palace for almost an entire day. She was so hungry that she didn't care if it was something she liked. She sat down and began to eat.

Shen Ninghua felt her heart aching. He was purposely joking just now because he was afraid that the pressure in his heart would be too great. After all, no matter what Baili JinChuan said, it would be like a ticking time bomb.

He placed the dishes that were a little further away in front of him and handed him a bowl of soup. After he finished using them, Shen Ninghua opened her mouth again. "Although the Northwest's Repertory is a big matter, it shouldn't be as long in the palace as it is now. Is there anything else that has happened?"

Chu Junyi wiped the corners of her lips. "Elder Yang has entered the palace."

"Elder Yang?" Yang Lin's grandfather? "

"Yes." Chu Junyi nodded.

"Didn't he suddenly enter the palace after not asking about the government for a long time?"

"He entered the palace for Yang Lin, to beg for forgiveness for his grandson."

Shen Ninghua's expression changed, "He's begging for forgiveness for Yang Lin. He and Princess An Qing are about to get married. And he's asking for forgiveness at this time?" As long as they weren't stupid, they probably wouldn't cause any trouble when the wedding day was approaching.

Chu Junyi smirked coldly. "That Yang Lin is a fool. That Rui Xue from the Spring Festival has already been taken in as a concubine by him."

"What?" Before the princess even entered the room, he had already taken in a concubine. Wasn't this equivalent to slapping Baili Anqing in the face?

"I originally thought that his thoughts were a bit wrong, but to think that they were so preposterous. Even if he didn't value Princess An Qing, she was still the Emperor's daughter. How could she lose face like this?"

"But it's only been nine days. How could Yang Lin not have been able to resist taking Rachel as his concubine?" Shen Ninghua asked with a puzzled expression.

Chu Junyi's expression changed, and the coldness in her eyes intensified. "That Rui Xue isn't simple. I don't know how she managed to enchant Yang Lin. The people I sent to monitor her were deceived by her." The house Yang Lin had arranged for Rachel wasn't far from the Yang Mansion, and there was also a small door in the back garden that connected with each other. Rui Xue and Yang Lin have both practiced martial arts, and my people are watching from the front. At night, they will jump out of the back window to meet us through the garden's small door. "

"Then Princess An Qing knows about it?"

"It should still be unclear. Although the Emperor was furious, he did not intend to decline the marriage."

At this moment, within the palace, Princess An Qing didn't know of this news yet, but the empress already knew of it.

Hearing Fang Xue's report, Zhao Hui Ying covered his lips and laughed: "Good, not bad. So you already knew that Yang Lin doesn't have a backbone. I didn't expect that within just nine days, Rui Xue would be confused and be unable to tell north from east."

Fang Xue smiled. "The Empress is still the most scheming one. It's just that I can't understand one thing, Empress."

Zhao Hui Ying's mood was extremely good, so he didn't mind her asking: "Hmm, what don't you understand?"

"That Rui Xue isn't the most beautiful person in the Jade Cloud Pavilion. Why did the Empress choose her?"

The smile on Zhao Hui Ying's face vanished. "She indeed isn't the most beautiful, but her eyes are the most similar to Shen Ninghua's."

"Like Princess Radiant?"

"That's right, you've only seen Shen Ninghua in the palace. I'm afraid you've never seen her in private." She was the same as her mother. Every frown and smile was a color, every movement was graceful. She was simply too beautiful, and could be called the most ideal girl in a man's heart. "Shen Ninghua is even more experienced than her mother is. Against a scholar who is not firm in her mind yet is filled with beauty, she only needs to lift the corner of her lips a little and they will all rush to her like a flock of ducks."

Fang Xue was shocked, but she also found it hard to believe. "Miss, although Princess Zhao Hua is beautiful, in my opinion, not everyone is so attractive."

Zhao Hui Ying smiled: "I naturally won't simply rely on luck. It's just that I've added some addictive medicine into Yang Lin's food. As long as his mind isn't firm, he'll be stuck inside, unable to extricate himself. On Spring Festival, Shen Ninghua went out with An Jing and An Qing. She had the most outstanding looks. It would be difficult for Yang Lin not to notice her, no matter what he did, he would still fall into her trap. "

Fang Xue suddenly understood. "The Empress has a good plan."

"Baili An? Princess An Ning? " Wasn't this supposed to be Baili Anqing's wedding?

"Hehe, I have my own arrangements. Just listen to my instructions. Shen Ninghua has been arrogant for so long, this time, I'm going to bring shame and disgrace upon her!"
