"What do you want to eat?" Hong Zhong scratched her head a little awkwardly. Honestly speaking, this was also the first time she had travelled here, so she did not know much about delicious food.

Qing Ya stopped the carriage: "Miss, the cinnamon cake s at Shengjing City's" Li Ji "pastry shop are very famous. Previously, Lv Luo had asked me to bring them back for her.

"Sure, go ahead." Hong Zhong was a good person, she was not picky with food.

Qing Ya took the change and got off the car. When he was free, Hong Zhong opened the door and looked at the people walking in and out of the car window. It seems that Shengjing City is indeed lively, it is not one bit inferior to the night market of the twenty-first century. His gaze swept across them one by one before finally landing on a shop that had the words "Li Ji's pastries" written on it.

Ye Zichen swept his gaze around and saw a familiar figure in the crowd at the entrance of the shop.

That person had ink-black hair that was flowing in the wind. He wore a gorgeous, light blue, embroidered gown, which made him look incomparably noble. There was a cynical smile on his handsome face.

At this moment, he was sitting on a simple stone bench in front of the shop's entrance. He looked at the inside of the shop with anticipation. A faint smile appeared on his face, indicating that he was in a good mood.

This made Hong Zhong a little surprised. Wasn't this the Fourth Prince, Dong Heng, who had said that he would visit a brothel in the morning to avoid the palace banquet? Logically speaking, shouldn't he be hugging a beauty in Huai Yang Flower Hall right now? Why would he be eating pastries here?

It was unknown if it was because he felt someone's gaze, but Murong Youqi, who was sitting on the stone bench, suddenly turned and looked towards Hong Zhong's carriage. Soon after, he did not notice anything strange and turned back to look at the shop's interior with a smile.

Hong Zhong immediately let go of the curtain and waited for Qing Ya to return. She immediately ordered the carriage to rush to the blacksmith shop as soon as possible. Right now, she couldn't afford to stir up any more trouble!

Baili Ziyan looked at Nangong Lingwei, who was seated at the head of the table with teary eyes, "Mother, you must seek justice for Yan'er. But today, Hong Zhong actually dared to make a move in the great hall, against this princess, she does not put the dignity of my Baili Royal Family in her eyes at all. If we leave this matter at that, how will Yan'er be able to establish herself in the Southern Qi in the future? "

As he spoke, he raised his hand to wipe his tears. Southern Qi Royal Family was a very weak child, and she, as the most respected Grand Princess, had always been the palm of Nangong Lingwei's hands. Since childhood, he had never suffered such humiliation, and that Hong Zhong actually dared to go against her.

"Shut up." Nangong Lingwei heavily slammed her palm on the table beside him, and her cold berating voice caused Baili Ziyan to be slightly stunned. His clear and cold gaze no longer held love as it coldly swept over Baili Ziyan's delicate and touching face, and then, it landed on Nangong Yimeng who was at the side. Only then did she faintly sigh, and slowly speak: "Did the two of you really think that the Wailing Home was too old, and wasn't effective?"

"Muhou!" Baili Ziyan saw that Nangong Lingwei's expression was strange, and immediately knelt down. This was originally because Hong Zhong, that bitch, was in the wrong.

Nangong Yimeng, who was at the side, was also startled, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Aunt, don't be angry."

Seeing that the two of them had admitted their wrongs, Nangong Lingwei's expression softened a little. "Hmph, Wailing Home had long ago warned you two to not provoke anyone from Red House, especially that woman called Hong Zhong!"

"Mother, what Hong Zhong did in the great hall did not give my Southern Qi Royal Family any face at all. This kind of bullying me, was also done to your face after you hit mother!" Baili Ziyan was still a little unresigned.

"Hmph, don't think that Wailing Home doesn't know what you want to do here!" Nangong's face turned ugly once again. The Imperial General's Estate, being able to stand firmly even under the hands of Baili Mingyue, was not something that an aristocratic family could compare with. The Grand Princess was the first to openly cause trouble, so what reason could she possibly have to blame him?

Baili Ziyan looked at Nangong Yimeng, "Muhou, that Hong Zhong is an ignorant fool, what qualifications does she have to be taken as an imperial concubine? Muhou, why don't you gather the clan's uncles and Uncle Wang s and bring royal father's decree back?

Seeing Baili Ziyan being so impatient, Nangong Lingwei slightly sighed, "Hong Zhong is a imperial concubine personally sealed by the late emperor, how can she be crippled so easily! Yan Er, you are the princess of a country, so you should know your own identity. Your intention to cause trouble in the hall is too obvious, why do you think that everyone is blind? " When would they understand that what Hong Zhong possessed not only the previous emperor's identity as a Gold Medal for Free from Death and a sealed imperial concubine, but also the military power of the four hundred thousand Red Army s? Before they could obtain the military power of the four hundred thousand Imperial General's Estate s, this Hong Zhong could not be touched no matter what.

Baili Ziyan bit her lips and did not speak, as her pleading gaze swept towards Nangong Yimeng. Nangong Yimeng also understood what she meant as she walked forward and spoke softly, "Aunt, don't be angry. At the end of the day, Yan'er was still young and insensible, which was why she was so reckless. She already knew that she was in the wrong. Aunt, please forgive her this time. "

Nangong Lingwei let out a faint sigh, looked at his favorite daughter and niece, and said sincerely: "Yan'er, you are young and insensible, Meng'er, you should be! One of you is a Grand Princess of the imperial family, and the other is the future Empress. Although Red House doesn't say anything on the surface regarding this matter, based on the actions that the Red House takes towards Hong Zhong as if she was a treasure, it's hard to say that they wouldn't pursue this matter in private. The general election is in another half a month, and this is not a time for trouble. "

"But, that Hong Zhong doesn't know anything, isn't that just throwing our royal family's face!?" Baili Ziyan was still unwilling.

Seeing that Baili Ziyan still wanted to refute her, Nangong Yimeng immediately pulled her back. She immediately lowered her head and admitted her mistake, "Yes, Aunt's teachings were correct. Meng'er will definitely take good care of Yan'er, and won't let her provoke Hong Zhong again. "

"Forget it, someone, come and pass down Wailing Home's orders. Although Red House Hong Zhong doesn't know how to read poems, she is clever and intelligent, has a pure heart and is loved by the Wailing Home. She will choose a day to head to the Grand Academy to study poetry." Nangong Lingwei said, then waved her hand at the two of them in an exhausted manner: "Wailing Home is tired, you guys can go now."

"Yes." After the two of them sent the empress dowager back to her palace, Baili Ziyan turned around and spoke with displeasure, "Big sister Meng, what do you think about that damned bitch? What is so scary about her?

Nangong Yimeng patted Baili Ziyan to comfort him: "Yan'er, you are a dignified Grand Princess of a nation. Your status and prestige is not something Hong Zhong can compare to. "Yan'er, there's no need to be so anxious. The failure of yesterday's plan is due to us underestimating her."
