Qu Qingning heard the scolding coming from next door and couldn't help but dig his ears. If he didn't see this black iron wall, he would not believe that the extremely vulgar couple would be superior inborn seniors.
"Is this the so-called great seclusion in the world? I admit my inferiority! "
Qu Qingning sighed. He closed his eyes and continued to control the Poisonous Heart Biting Insect to dig the earth. His pious expression was no less than that of the excavators from Lanxiang …
Su Li meditated for a few days and finally finished studying the remaining pages of the secret medicine of the Hehuan Sect. When she reached such a realm in the poison circle, the so-called secret medicine of the sect was just a lock with a cloud of suspicion. Now she had both the key and the lock, so she could see through it at a glance. It wouldn't take too long to develop the antidote of the Hongchen Powder.
As for the poison in Tang Lei's body, it would not take effect for a while, and it was not the time to detoxify it. The development of the antidote was not urgent.
On this day, in the Su House, Su Li got up early in the morning and hadn't gone out yet. Suddenly, Mammy Li appeared at the door with two red invitations, trembling with fear.
"Miss, something bad has happened!"
Su Li raised her eyebrows and sat down again. She gave up the idea of going to the Affiliated School and took the two invitations to open.
The first one was from the First Prince's Residence.
The second photo was of the Third Prince's residence.
"I have long heard that Miss Su is beautiful and talented! I have admired you for a long time, so I specially set up a banquet in the Hongyan House (Jiuqu Lane). Miss Su, please do me a favor and come to meet me at the xu hour of the first day of the eighth lunar month. I will definitely prepare for you! "
Putting the invitation on the table, Su Li thought for a while.
These two invitations, except for the location, seemed to be carved from the same mold. If she really wanted to attend the banquet, she could only choose one of them.
The Emperor was already old, but the position of Crown Prince had not yet been established, so the Inheritance War was inevitable.
The First Prince and the Third Prince were obviously against each other. Both sides were sparing no effort to win over their forces. Standing behind her was the Emperor's Preceptor Qi Xianqing, who could speak in front of the Emperor. Naturally, she was regarded as a delicious cake to win over.
"Miss, this is the First Prince and the Third Prince. If we make them unhappy …"
Mammy Li was frightened and worried about Su Li. This step was too difficult. No matter who she chose, she would offend someone. But if she chose neither, she would offend both sides!
"Nanny, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Su Li smiled slightly. She was not surprised that she was suddenly in trouble. In the previous life, she heard later that the two princes also competed with each other, but neither of them became the emperor, which was quite ridiculous.
Putting down the invitation, Su Li went out as usual and didn't mean to reply to any prince.
Mammy Li was full of doubts. She waited anxiously for a day, but no one from the Prince's Mansion came to question her. It seemed that no one was convinced and they were sure that Su Li would go there on the first day of August.
The hostility between the two Prince's Residences became more and more obvious.
In this strange atmosphere, the first day of August finally arrived.
Su Li was dressed in a feather blue embroidered brocade dress. A jasper hairpin was inserted into her black hair bun. Her delicate face was slightly powdered and she was about to go out. Su Qingtan knocked at the door and came in. When he saw the Second Sister's dress, his eyes flashed with amazement, but instantly became worried. He asked in a deep voice,
"You really don't want me to go with you to the banquet tonight?"
He understood that Su Li was invited because of Qi Xianqing. If she refused the prince, it was hard to imagine whether the anger of the former would directly swallow Su Li.
He remembered that he was fortunate to have Qi Xianqing as a banner to block countless playboys for Su Li before. He didn't expect that she would be involved in the dangerous battle for the throne.
It was really Qi Xianqing's fault and success!
Su Li came with a peaceful smile and gently straightened Su Qingtan's slightly uneven clothes. Her gentle voice had a convincing power, "Eldest Brother, don't worry. I will have a good sense of propriety. Besides, the decision is not up to me, but up to the master. I believe that as long as I say so, the princes will not embarrass me. "
Su Qingtan felt a little better. He forced a smile and said, "I hope so."
"Then I'm leaving."
"Be careful on the way!"
"…"
Seeing Su Li's carriage leave, Su Qingtan's face was tense. He clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves. He … was still too weak! If he had enough power and strength, why did he force his Second Sister, a 16-year-old girl, to face the oppression of the princes?!
"You can't protect your sister with your current identity. When you think clearly one day, you will understand what I mean. I expect you to take the initiative to come to me instead of passively accepting it. "
Thinking of Ling Qinglan's words, Su Qingtan gritted his teeth. At this moment, his eyes were extremely firm.
…
In the alley of brothels, the river behind the Hongyan House was sparkling. A well-lit exquisite ship with several decks was floating on the river. A long wooden board was set up at the bridgehead and extended to the shore. Under the new moon, the breeze was blowing. It was elegant and chic.
"Lady Qu, I really owe you a favor today."
The First Prince, Dongfang Sheng, came early. He booked the entire Hongyan House tonight. But he thought it was inappropriate to entertain a girl in the Hongyan House. Qu Lu came up with the idea of boating on the river and solved the problem for him.
Qu Lu covered her face and smiled coquettishly. She said, "Your Highness, you are so polite. It is my duty to share your worries and difficulties. Please don't forget the help of the Hehuan Sect after you ascend the throne."
Dongfang Sheng's mouth was dry and his throat rolled. He secretly cursed that the women of Hehuan Sect were really vixens, but he still maintained the image of a gentleman and nodded with a smile, "Of course, it is. It's almost time. Miss Qu, please sit down. "
Then, he pointed to the gauze curtain at the stern. There was a guqin behind the gauze curtain. He would feel much better if there was a gauze curtain.
Qu Lu was surprised. The First Prince could resist the temptation of the Hehuan Powder. She underestimated him. With his patience, he might be able to do it.
The task assigned by the Sect was completed. Qu Lu quietly dispersed the Hehuan Powder. She got up and walked into the gauze curtain. Dongfang Sheng felt much better. He was a little relieved and waited carefully.
He didn't know much about the martial arts circle, so he didn't notice the difference just now.
In a twinkling of an eye, it was 11 o 'clock. No one appeared on the riverbank. Even if Dongfang Sheng had some confidence in the chips in his hand, if Su Li didn't come today, how could he perform?
For a moment, Dongfang Sheng felt slightly agitated. He couldn't help but loosen the button on his chest and take a breath.
But at this moment, on the riverbank full of lanterns, two figures, one in blue and one in white, suddenly appeared. The blue figure was Su Li. Dongfang Sheng was shocked. But when he saw the face of the white figure beside Su Li, his eyes immediately widened!
Why … Why did this guy appear here?!
Ling Li pushed the wheelchair by himself and quickly entered the ship. His speed was even faster than Su Li's. Seeing Dongfang Sheng's dull face, he immediately laughed. He patted Dongfang Sheng's stiff shoulder very warmly and said with a crooked face,
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Brother Sheng, you are still elegant as before! As soon as I received your invitation, I immediately dressed up and rushed over without stopping! How about it? My clothes aren't a disgrace to you, right? "
Looking at Ling Li's extremely attentive face, Dongfang Sheng's face instantly became darker than the bottom of a pot. He didn't believe that the little bastard who dared to put aphrodisiac in his wine a year ago suddenly became sensible today.
He looked down and saw Ling Li's wrinkled clothes. His mouth twitched violently. The little bastard … wore the same clothes as him!!
Looking at Ling Li's wrinkled clothes, the First Prince, who was very satisfied with his clothes, suddenly had a feeling of vomiting.
This guy really came to undermine him!
But he could only bite the bullet today! Because … he did give the invitation to the Ling Family.
At this moment, Su Li had already walked to the ship. Looking at Ling Li who was complacent and the First Prince who was angry, she couldn't help but feel strange. Why did he also come back?
Seeing Su Li coming in, the First Prince was confused. Dongfang Sheng instantly felt that his face was ruthlessly pulled off by Ling Li and rubbed on the ground. But at this moment, he still had to keep a smile and bear his anger. He said to Su Li, "It's my honor that Miss Su is willing to come here. Please sit for a moment and let me deal with the unexpected situation."
Su Li showed a considerate smile and nodded slightly, "First Prince, it's very convenient."
Then she really sat aside and watched the play.
Dongfang Sheng was relieved. He was really afraid that Su Li would be annoyed by Ling Li and leave directly. In that case, his impression in front of his father would be worse than that of the Third Brother. It should be known that a slight difference could lead to a great difference!
Suddenly, Dongfang Sheng felt his body turn cold, as if a terrifying chill had locked onto him, causing him to tremble uncontrollably. But this feeling came and went quickly. He didn't find the source at all.
Dongfang Sheng glanced at Ling Li who was still giggling. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. For a moment, he thought that the source was Ling Li. Today, he was really confused because of anger.
Even if the sun rose from the west, it couldn't be this little bastard. Ho-ho …
Dongfang Sheng sat next to Ling Li's wheelchair. He suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "Brother Ling Li, I remember that the invitation was clearly written to your cousin, Ling Qinglan. Why did you come? "
"Yes!"
Ling Li took it for granted and replied without hesitation, "Brother Sheng, you and Third Brother Lang should discuss the date and send invitations to my cousin at the same time. Qinglan is too busy to attend to other things. How can he be busy? Qinglan went to the banquet of Third Brother Lang. I am afraid that you will be unhappy, so I come here! "
I am afraid that you will be unhappy …
Unhappy …
When Su Li heard this, she almost burst into laughter. She probably understood.
Ling Qinglan belonged to the Third Prince's faction on the surface. The Third Prince sent an invitation to Ling Qinglan to discuss important matters. Dongfang Sheng wanted to make trouble, so he deliberately sent an invitation to Ling Qinglan at the same time.
The Third Prince was also angry. He gave Ling Qinglan a taste of his own medicine and also sent an invitation to her.
Originally, Ling Qinglan went to the Third Prince's place and she came to the First Prince's place. It seemed that they tied.
But Dongfang Sheng forgot that there was a master in the Ling Family who "didn't know the rules".
