Chapter 119: Scheming


In the early morning of the next day, Xu Tianlin packed up properly, commanded the convoy to line up neatly, and prepared to enter Chang'an City.

Princess Yidu, accompanied by her maidservant, walked out of the post station slowly.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and her eyes were dull, and she reached out to put her arm around Do'er, and lifted her foot up the stairs of the chariot.

Duo'er lifted the veil and helped Princess Yidu to sit on the soft couch in the chariot.

Xu Tianlin walked quickly to the chariot of Princess Yidu, bowed and bowed: "Her Royal Highness Princess Yidu, can we leave?"

Princess Yidu in the chariot looked at Xu Tianlin, who knelt down to ask for instructions, through the veil, and watched silently for a long time, but never spoke.

Xu Tianlin didn't hear Princess Yidu's instructions, so he bowed down again and asked, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, if you can set off, please show me." ” Princess Yidu motioned to Duo'er beside her to lift the veil of the chariot, and at the same time withdrew all the slaves and guards.

She straightened her body slightly, sat upright, and slowly spoke: "Brother Tianlin, you don't have to command people to enter Chang'an City. ” Xu Tianlin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked up at Princess Yidu.

I saw that Princess Yidu's red and swollen eyes were misty.

Xu Tianlin looked down slightly, and said puzzledly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Weichen doesn't understand what you mean." ” Princess Yidu breathed a sigh of relief, tears couldn't help but flow down her cheeks, and her voice was unusually flat: "I mean, Brother Tianlin doesn't have to enter Chang'an with me, you can return to Yizhou with your people." ” "Return to Yizhou" Xu Tianlin's eyes were full of surprise: "Why doesn't Her Royal Highness the princess go into the city with him?"

Princess Yidu's eyes had a hint of brilliance, she smiled faintly, and her tone was gentle: "I have decided to enter the palace to meet my father, and implore my father to withdraw his will to give marriage and return Tianlin's brother to freedom."

So, go back to Yizhou and wait for good news. ” Xu Tianlin's eyes were full of surprise and turned into shock, and he hesitated to speak: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you, are you telling the truth?"

A chuckle appeared at the corner of Princess Yidu's mouth: "Yi'er never lied to Brother Tianlin. ” "However, the Son of Heaven is difficult to chase after him, and it is not easy to ask the emperor to retract his will" Xu Tianlin's heart was still full of doubts.

"Father is Yi'er's father, Yi'er naturally has a way to persuade his father to retract his will."

Princess Yidu's tone was still calm.

Xu Tianlin thought for a moment, and then clasped his fists at Princess Yidu: "The minister can't let Her Royal Highness the princess bear the responsibility of repenting of her marriage, or I will enter the palace with you to meet the emperor and explain the matter." ” "No, Brother Tianlin."

Princess Yidu categorically refused: "Don't follow me into the city, you better go back to Yizhou first." ” "The minister thinks this matter is inappropriate, or the minister accompanies him" Xu Tianlin still insisted.

"Brother Tianlin, do you know how much courage I put in to decide to do this" Princess Yidu interrupted Xu Tianlin's words, and her voice became sad: "You don't want to follow me into the palace to face the saint, I'm afraid that if I stay with you for a while, I will change my current decision, I don't want to give myself a chance to waver."

Brother Tianlin, you better go back to Yizhou first. ” "Your Highness the Princess."

Xu Tianlin's eyes showed an unbearable look: "Let you fall into a dilemma, Weichen deserves death."

He bowed deeply.

Princess Yidu smiled, suddenly changed her words, and asked softly: "Brother Tianlin, do you want to know how Yi'er will persuade her father to withdraw her will?"

Xu Tianlin bowed and saluted: "Weichen really wants to know, please make it clear to Her Royal Highness the Princess." ” The corners of Princess Yidu's mouth rose slightly, revealing a smug smile: "I will report to my father truthfully, Brother Tianlin is willing to marry me as his wife according to his will, but Yi'er doesn't like to live in Yizhou and wants Brother Tianlin to live in Chang'an, but you don't agree, so I beg my father to transfer you to Beijing."

Speaking of this, Princess Yidu deliberately stopped, looked at Xu Tianlin, who was full of puzzlement, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became stronger: "With the current situation in the Tang Dynasty and Nanzhao, it is not appropriate to change the frontier guards, and naturally my plea will not be approved by my father."

In this way, I can naturally propose to my father to repent of marriage. ” After listening to Princess Yidu's story, Xu Tianlin hurriedly shook his head: "Your Royal Highness Princess, your rhetoric is too child's play, how can it be convincing." ” "Of course it's too child's play."

Princess Yidu had a disapproving look in her eyes, and then said: "My father will definitely be furious when he hears this, and he will definitely accuse me of being willful and nonsense, and he will definitely say that the holy decree has been issued, and he will not allow you to say that you will regret it."

Princess Yidu imitated the emperor's tone and talked to herself.

Xu Tianlin's hanging heart jumped suddenly, he looked at Princess Yidu hesitantly, the appearance of such a joke was Yi'er he had never seen before, and it was Yi'er that he couldn't understand.

He reined in his mind and asked puzzledly: "Since Her Royal Highness the princess knows, such a statement will cause Long Yan to be furious, why is it so?"

Princess Yidu had a calm smile on her face: "Brother Tianlin, don't worry, I have angered my father, but I also have rescuers to help." ” Princess Yidu looked at Xu Tianlin's surprised expression, couldn't help but hide her mouth and smile, and said deliberately teasingly: "My rescuer is naturally Brother Shuwang."

If I regret my marriage, he will be in a hurry, how can he rely on me if he loses such a minister as Brother Tianlin."

Xu Tianlin became more and more confused: "Her Royal Highness the princess wants to repent of her marriage, Her Royal Highness King Shu will not allow it, he will definitely speak out, how can he be the rescuer of Her Royal Highness the princess?"

Princess Yidu pretended to smile mysteriously and said softly: "Before I enter the palace to meet my father this time, I will first go to King Shu's mansion to meet my brother.

Then tell him exactly what you and I said last night.

I will let him know that even if I become a relative of Brother Tianlin, and you become a member of his staff, I will never willingly use him.

Rather than this, it is better to find another good minister and serve him. ” Xu Tianlin listened to Princess Yidu's eloquent talk and explained the benefits and disadvantages in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but be shocked: "I thought Yi'er was also a simple-minded person, but I didn't expect that his scheming was as treacherous as His Royal Highness King Shu." ” Princess Yidu saw the thoughts in his heart from between Xu Tianlin's eyebrows, and smiled indifferently: "Brother Tianlin, do you think that Yi'er is not as simple and cute as it was back then?"

Princess Yidu didn't answer Xu Tianlin, and her face showed a hint of self-deprecation: "Born in the royal family, in order to protect yourself, you have to do it, and over time, it has become the instinct to deal with people, which may be the sadness of being a royal person." ” Princess Yidu glanced at Xu Tianlin, who was silent, out of the corner of her eye, and continued with what she said just now: "I will take the initiative to propose it to Brother Shu Wang, and I will descend to the general counsel Liu Yu."

Speaking of this, Princess Yidu deliberately stopped again, and asked rhetorically: "Brother Tianlin, do you know who Liu Yu is?"

Xu Tianlin shook his head blankly.

The promise of the third life is not lightly promised :
