In Shouli Hall, the snow-white lion cat jumped down from the cabinet and meowed at Yan Rong.
"What do you want me to do? You are a heartless little thing." Yan Rong scolded angrily: "You ran away when I was about to die, but you screamed happily when I wanted to eat."
"Meow."
"Ask your master... Where is the princess?"
"Your Majesty, the princess went to lie down again. It must be that she was tired from the day before yesterday and has not recovered yet."
"You take this little tutu to the courtyard to play with butterflies, and then ask the kitchen to cook some pork liver for it to eat, and see how greedy it is."
After giving the instructions, Yan Rong stroked his forehead and leaned against it, sighing leisurely.
Finally, it was not until evening that the palace maid came to report: "Your Majesty, the Chief Guan Pavilion is back."
"Quick pass."
Yan Rong stood up, looked at Guan De who hurried in, and asked hurriedly: "How?"
"Back to the imperial concubine, I have been sitting in the Fenglian Tower all day, but I haven't seen Li Jieshuai."
"He's not coming today?" Yan Rong was surprised.
"Yes, I have been staying in the house for two days in a row. The slave did not dare to come to the door, so he sent a servant over, but he was sent back."
"How?"
"Li Jieshuai doesn't see guests."
Yan Rong's expression was stagnant, but he still smiled and said: "What's the hurry? He is already planning."
"My dear concubine, there is one more problem." Guan De whispered: "Today, the queen first met with Mrs. Cixian, then met with Prince Zhong, and finally met with Quan's daughter..."
Yan Rong's face suddenly turned cold.
"Dong Songchen has been in the palace all day, why don't you report to me?"
"The official...he is obviously..." Guan De's voice trembled a little, and he murmured in a low voice: "The official has fallen to the queen."
To be honest, even Guande actually wanted to join the Queen.
The current situation in the palace can be seen at a glance.
It is true that Concubine Yan Guifei enjoyed the favor of the officials in the past and had all the power in the world.
But favoring something like this is nothing.
Moreover, Concubine Yan has failed to live up to expectations and has not been able to conceive a child in these years. Now that the official family is more than fifty years old, it is obvious that it is impossible to have another child, not to mention that she is no longer invited to sleep with her.
If the official family lives forever and continues to pamper the princess, they will naturally not abolish Concubine Yan.
But there are some things that others don't know, but Guan De knows that the officials have recently begun to use strong medicine to deal with the many beauties.
If you plan to establish a prince, and then mess around like this...how many more years can you keep messing with?
In a word, favor is all vain. Long-lasting wealth depends on status and strength.
The Queen is the adoptive mother of Prince Zhong, and is survived by Mrs. Ci Xian, Prince Rong, and all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.
Even Xianggong Jia and Dong Songchen smelled the scent like dogs and leaned over there.
Guan De also met Li Xia too many times at Fenglian Tower a while ago, and offended Prince Zhong to death, so he was willing to give Concubine Yan a try.
Listen to her nonsense.
"You don't have to panic. Dong Songchen is blind. He still doesn't know how capable Li Xia is. I tell you that Wu Qian, the left prime minister, and King Zhong are incompatible. Li Xia can contact Wu Qian to overthrow King Zhong, and then help me become the king. Later, we can choose a clan. From now on, I will be Empress Dowager Yang, and Li Xia will be Shi Miyuan, so your benefits are indispensable."
"Yes, yes, but Li Jieshuai refuses to see this slave..."
"I told you that he is already making plans." Yan Rong smiled charmingly and said: "I have convinced him. Go and continue to contact him tomorrow and wait for news from him."
"My slave understands." Guan De kowtowed and stepped back.
He understood that Concubine Yan didn't have much strategy, but she was naturally charming, so she was very sure of subduing Li Xia.
With the current situation, the only person we can rely on is Li Jieshuai.
…
Seeing Guan De retreat, Yan Rong finally became anxious.
She couldn't sit still anymore, walked around the hall twice, and cursed.
"You still ignore me...you have no conscience, and you have forgotten who appointed Shu Shuai for you."
He couldn't wait to sit in front of the bronze mirror again. Yan Rong looked at the mirror, and confidence came to his eyes again.
"You will agree, you are just thinking about it."
She whispered to herself, lay back on the couch, caressed her beautiful face, and thought of many things in her mind.
Drink bowl after bowl of the powerful medicine from the official family.
Wu Qian raised his arms and shouted, "Don't make fools your boss."
Zhao Yu grabbed the maid's belt and was dragged out of the East Palace screaming.
Xie Daoqing's phoenix crown fell to the ground.
The door of Jia Sidao's study was pushed open, and the young man walked in and said something calmly and confidently.
"Mr. Jia, I win again, then Concubine Yan will be the queen."
…
There are no specific plans.
Yan Rong only had this scene in his mind, and it was extremely clear.
She didn't need a specific plan at all, but she firmly believed that Li Xia could do it.
Twice, she was pulled back from the brink of death just because she heard the name "Li Xia".
The man who pacified the Southwest in the First World War returned to the court, and later struggled out of a dead situation, and has now attracted the forces in the court that were hostile to him to come to his aid.
Only she saw how capable he was from the very beginning.
This is enough.
For a beauty like her, she could only hook her fingers. But a man like that would risk his life for her and help her from the bloody storm to a queen, or even the queen mother.
From now on, together they will turn over the clouds and cover the rain with one hand.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zuo and Privy Councilor Li Xia, please see the Queen Mother."
Yan Rong closed his eyes, and a charming smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Li Xiang, come here..."
"Nian'er, come here."
"don't want."
At nightfall, Li Xia put down the information in his hand and looked at Nian'er, who was busy mopping the floor and tidying up the bedding in the house.
"The servants did this, come here."
"I can't go there, and Nian'er is a servant."
Li Xia said: "You are not a servant. I told you that I want you to come into my door."
Nian'er pursed her lips and secretly looked at Li Xia, blushing a little.
Li Xia said again: "You don't want to? Then forget it."
"Then...it's not that you don't want to." Nian'er was so anxious that he ran a few steps toward him. When he was almost there, he stopped and said, "But my girl must come in first, so that I can be your roommate."
The girl’s.”
The feather duster waved in the air, and she quickly threw it away and started chirping again.
"Girl and Nian'er are very expensive. You earned the money with great difficulty. Even if you have to pay back the deed, then we are yours too. The girl said she won't go anywhere."
"Okay, I will keep her. I can't let her go in the past two years. After two years, she can marry as she pleases, or she can continue to be raised by me."
"It's been agreed, but if the girl doesn't want to marry someone else, of course she still has to marry you."
"I don't know if she was bribed by Jia Sidao."
Nian'er was so anxious that he jumped up and said, "Girl, you haven't been bribed. Why didn't you say that Nian'er was bribed? The one who is jealous of money is obviously Nian'er."
"Because I can trust you."
"Then the husband also believes in the girl, okay? She is really good. How can I trust the girl?"
"Besides, it takes time to see people's hearts."
Nian'er was very dissatisfied and muttered: "I don't know what's so great about you, and you still don't believe in people. It's really..."
Li Xia smiled, quite willing to tease this girl, and raised her hand to point out the window.
"Did you see more than ten boxes in the courtyard? They are all gold, silver and jewelry. Don't tell your girl, in case someone sent by Jia Sidao steals them."
"Ah? This..." Nian'er became very embarrassed, and then became worried again, and asked Li Xia: "If the gold and silver are placed there, will it become moldy?"
"come here."
"don't want."
"You dare to come here during the day."
"That's different. You are very busy during the day, and at night...you have to bully others. But why do you have so many books to read? Are you too tired?"
"But forget it, I'm going to sleep."
Li Xia stood up, took off her clothes and went to twist the cloth.
After a while, Nian'er came over again, acting coquettishly.
"Nian'er, I'll wipe it for you."
"Okay... do you like it?"
"Uh-huh."
"Feel free to touch it if you like, and lie down together?"
"Then let's talk about it first. Nian'er can still help you like last night... I can help you because Mother Hu has taught me, but let me tell you, both the girl and Nian'er have innocent bodies... Also, if you
If you think about that...you have to get the girl first."
"Ok, I know."
"Then you cover this...doesn't it smell good? It's been in the sun all day."
"It's okay not to bask in the sun. Maybe I'll take you home soon."
"How about you invite the girl to accompany you? Nian'er has really made up his mind. If you don't like the girl, Nian'er won't let you..."
Li Xia asked: "Is it because you don't want me to touch your legs because of your thick legs?"
"It's not rough."
"You said before that you can't be an oiran because of your thick legs."
"Ah? That's Long'er, Long'er! It's the one you spent my girl's money on! That's not Nian'er, Nian'er's legs are not thick at all!"
Nian'er, who had already fled to the other side of the bed, was so anxious that he kept chattering.
"I can tell you, Mother Hu has said that Nian'er is also a young beauty, so she arranged to serve the girl. The people around the oiran are also selected, and they are not the maids from the outer courtyard like Long'er.
"
"Come here, let me see if it's really rough..."
"Really?"
"Why didn't you become an oiran back then?"
"Of course I can't become one. I'm too stupid. I can't learn to play the piano or recite poems. You see, the back of my head is not flat enough, and my teeth are a bit uneven. My girl has nothing to fault about her whole body, even the back of her head.
It’s just right.”
"Are the teeth crooked? You can't tell."
"here."
"If I look closer, I can't see it."
"You can't tell, right? You'll know just by touching it..."
Even the night breeze in Lin'an City is gentle.
It has been half a year since Huma retreated, and the world has once again regained peace and peace.
As the moon sets and the sun rises, a fast horse comes from the north and drives directly to the Privy Council.
Afterwards, w. all the ministers and ministers rushed into the palace, disturbing the king who had been indulging in the harem for several days.
"Your Majesty, Huaidong is urgently reporting that Mongolian prince Li Fen from Shandong has crossed the Huaihe River!"
"Why are you panicking?" Zhao Yun's expression remained unchanged, only impatient and tired, "Summon Li Tingzhi to quickly go north to defend the enemy, and send an order to Xia Gui to support Huaidong..."
After deliberation for a long time, the ministers withdrew.
Zhao Yun sat alone for a while, thinking about Kublai Khan's plan, and finally summoned several imperial city officials to know.
"Official..."
"Without courtesy, I ask you, Wu Qian is still investigating the Ezhou peace negotiation?"
"As an official, I secretly reminded Wu Qian many times that it was enough, but he still went to see Ding Daquan."
Zhao Yun's face looked grim. He walked a few steps and asked again: "Is there an envoy from the north who is about to go south?"
"It is said that Huaixi received a message from the north, and I am still investigating."
"Then why did Li Fen still send troops?"
"I don't know about my humble position, but I should ask the Privy Council's Speed Chamber about this matter."
Zhao Yun was dissatisfied, sitting on the imperial couch with his knees pressed and meditating, and finally asked another question.
