　　Chang Liu has been waiting outside the courtyard door for a long time.

　　She is the mistress of this Tong An courtyard and she is pregnant, but she was stopped in front of her own courtyard gate to wait for the guests to enter, several maids around her felt that this Prince of Dan Lin was too rude. However, Chang Liu has encountered series of good things recently, her mood is extremely good, not bothered by anything.

　　She has thought about He Di knowing the secret agreement between her and Duke Ming and at this time the special envoy of Duke Ming is also in this courtyard, in case it comes up during the conversation, she didn’t let other maids know.

　　Kong Liu follows to enter into the courtyard gate, she orders the maids to stay in place and wait for her, and goes inside the room alone.

　　This is the first time Chang Liu comes in person after He Di lived in the Tong An courtyard, just like Ziyan, as soon as she entered the door, she’s surprised at the completely changed inner side room.

　　It’s as if she suddenly fell from the Tong Kingdom to the distant Dan Lin Palace, an exotic atmosphere permeated everywhere.

　　“I’m sorry to have kept the imperial consort waiting.” He Di leans on the soft pillow immodestly, “Just now I’ve talked about important matters with Duke Ming’s Special Envoy and couldn’t get away for a while.” His chin lifts towards Ziyan.

　　Chang Liu glances at Ziyan.

　　Ziyan stands politely as Chang Liu entered the door, his posture just looks good, hearing the shameless explanation just now he hardly feels the courage and shame in his heart, seeing Chang Liu looks at him, he quickly shows a respect and serious expression, he cups his hand and says, “Greeting The imperial consort.”

　　“Greeting Special Envoy”

　　“Don’t stand, please sit down.” He Di says.

　　There are no chairs or seats in this room, the only place where she can sit down is only the silk sheeted bed where He Di arrogantly half lying stretching out his long legs.

　　Chang Liu looks around for a while, and silently goes up to choose a comfortable position to sit.

　　Ziyan had no choice but to step up and sit down, unexpectedly He Di sits up, reaches out and holds his wrist, he pulls him to his side, showing a “good intention” smile, “The imperial consort is inconvenient, so Special Envoy sit over here to make room for her. “

　　Ziyan refuses, but he’s pulled to him until their knees almost attached, looking at his proud smile, he felt a deep hatred.

　　Princess Chang Liu said thank you and sighs in her heart, even such a foreign prince who doesn’t obey the law is also more careful and considerate than Qing Li.

　　She felt more favorable to He Di.

　　At this moment the attendant outside the room were brought refreshments from Dan Lin’s specialty.

　　“What advice does the imperial consort have to tell for coming here today?” He Di looks at Chang Liu, his eyes were extremely bold and straightforward.

　　“How dare Chang Liu teach His Royal Highness?” Chan Liu’s words and deeds shows a master’s grace, and she gracefully says, “This time I made a special trip to make amends, the n.o.ble guest has been here for a long time and i am negligent. In addition, I also want to see how His Royal Highness lives here, if there’s anything to add, I’ll order the attendants to add it quickly. “

　　These are the routine greetings of the master and guests, as well as the etiquette of ordinary people. He Di was used to it and was the least concerned about these phrases, “No need, everything here is complete, and I’m not used to using other people’s things.”

　　Recently, his mind has been around on Ziyan, even Qing Li has come over several times and he decline with the excuse of fasting, he let Princess Chang Liu to come in this time, one is to take opportunity of Princess Chang Liu’s arrival to cool down his heart that is about to explode, the second is because Princess Chang Liu has a certain relations.h.i.+p with Duke Ming.

　　If it has something to do with Duke Ming, of course it has something to do with Duke Ming’s special envoy Ziyan.

　　“How does the Princess and Duke Ming’s secret alliance work?” Using his most familiar method, He Di discards all nonsense and goes straight to the point. “If The Princess had plans for Duke Ming who is in the Tong An courtyard, Prince Qing Li’s hostility will not post much threat to Duke Ming.”

　　As expected, Ziyan’s attention is immediately attracted.

　　Chang Liu leisurely says, “There are so many talents around Duke Ming, why should Chang Liu plan for him? As for the hostility, Qing Li was only encouraged by the ignorant woman and was confused for a while. In this regard, I hope that when the envoy meets Duke Ming in the future, he can say a good word or two on behalf of my husband.” She turns to Ziyan who’s sitting upright.

　　After all, she is still Qing Li’s wife, husband and wife are of the same body, and now they have their flesh and blood, she never hopes that Duke Ming who has a huge background will bear a grudge against Qing Li.

　　Chang Liu sighs lowly, “With the disappearance Father King, Qing Li was dealt a great blow, his personality has changed a lot and this unexpected accident happened, so he’s so easily confused and listened to that woman, not only did he believe that Duke Ming is the murderer of the Great King, he also naively thought that by killing Duke Ming, he could confirm the death of the Great King and successfully inherit the throne. Aih… I collect the information here for Duke Ming and Let Duke Ming prepare in case something goes wrong, I hope that what I’ve done would leave one more way for our children in the future.”

　　Qing Li determined that Feng Ming was the murderer and want to take revenge and wipe out the grudge by killing Feng Ming and ascends the throne by the way, this is almost a public secret. Ziyan knew in that day and thought to himself, not to mention killing even if Qing Li only hurt Duke Ming, our king would have eaten him alive, not only the whole Qing Li’s family even The Tong Kingdom would suffer. Princess Chang Liu can see this and still dare to stand up, she’s indeed a bold woman.

　　However, this is the first time Ziyan has heard of the fact that Chang Liu and Duke Ming have a secret alliance.
