The emperor's uncle roared in front of the emperor and decisively suppressed the trend of condemning He Lianrong.
But he was sullen and resigned calmly.
He Lianfeng looked indifferent, and everyone knew that although the emperor had let He Lianrong go for the time being, the seeds of doubt had been sown, and once the time came, he would be attacked with all the benefits.
He Lianrong's patron, King Helianli of the Southern Academy, glanced at the emperor sadly.
He was optimistic about He Lianrong, so he was willing to give him a hand and cultivated him for a long time. In his opinion, He Lianrong's ability to manage politics was top-notch. In time, there would definitely be one more important minister in the court.
But now it seems that this one can't be held back.
How heartbreaking it is to lose a confidant who has been carefully cultivated for a long time!
Helianli and several friends looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.
After leaving the main hall, the emperor's uncle saw Changling.
"Uncle Emperor."
Changling salutes.
"Changling!"
In terms of seniority, He Lianchun was Changling's great-uncle.
He Lianchun smiled and said, "You look a little pale, have you been busy lately?"
Changling smiled, "Not really."
"That's good."
He Lianchun walked slowly and unsteadily.
The confidant at her side said: "Uncle Emperor, Princess Changling has been feeling lonely recently."
He Lianchun said: "Do you remember her disdain to interfere in government affairs before?"
"Yes, what the princess hated most in the past was those people who work hard, saying that officials are like flies and dogs, and they are rotten and smelly."
When the girl was a young girl, she felt that her world was clear and she could not see any external filth.
"Women are fickle!" He Lianchun said calmly.
Changling watched him stagger away before arriving outside the palace.
"Meet the princess."
Liu Xiang, the Minister of Household Affairs, came out and saw Changling and quickly saluted.
After the last trip to the grassland went wrong, Liu Xiang decisively defected to Changling. Not only did he retain his official position, he was quite proud of himself recently.
"Princess, He Lianrong's good days are numbered."
"Well! Just wait!"
"yes."
When the officials came out and saw Liu Xiang's respectful attitude, they all sneered in their hearts.
This person actually became Changling's dog, which shows that he has no moral integrity.
Several friends from the past turned a blind eye, snorted coldly, and walked away.
Changling entered the palace.
"Father."
"Changling!" He Lianfeng was still sitting.
"I heard that Tanzhou was defeated?"
"Um!"
He Lianfeng looked a little tired, "He Lianrong is incompetent."
Changling stretched out his hand, took the water glass from the waiter's hand and put it down.
"Princess." The chamberlain beside He Lianfeng introduced the situation, "Yang Xuan leads the army..."
After listening, Changling said: "Father, it's not that he is incompetent."
"Huh?" Although Emperor Taishu's words made He Lianfeng let He Lianrong go, it did not mean that he thought He Lianrong was a capable minister.
Changling said: "But everyone underestimated Yang Xuan!"
The emperor slowly raised his head and said, "I remember that you walked with that man. What do you think?"
Changling was in a daze for a moment, as if she saw Yang Xuan smiling at her. She calmed down and said, "This person is very talented and speaks well. I have been in Ningxing for many years and have never seen such a great talent!"
He Lianfeng smiled, "Literary talent?"
"He has a lot of tricks, and he often surprises me. That time I was kidnapped by him. Aunt Hong and the others tried many ways along the way, but he calmly resolved them one by one."
Changling said seriously: "Father, the only problem with those ministers is their pride. They feel that Liao should be invincible. Once defeated, the commander of the army must be responsible. If this idea of underestimating the enemy is allowed to spread, what will happen next?
Who will be unlucky once?"
He Lianfeng was horrified and moved, "I know, come and reward Changling with 10,000 yuan!"
Compared with the lavish emperor of Chang'an, He Lianfeng was much more stingy.
When Changling left the main hall, the emperor was already smiling.
"Princess!"
Liuxiang was waiting outside.
"Contact He Lianrong's backer and tell him that there is nothing to worry about."
Liu Xiang was shocked and turned around to look at the smiling emperor in the palace, "The princess actually made your majesty change his mind?"
"It is my father who is wise!"
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise!"
Liu Xiang looked at Chang Ling's retreating back and whispered: "It seems that many people have underestimated the princess!"
Later, the emperor sent people to Tanzhou to appease He Lianrong.
"Why did your Majesty suddenly change his mind?"
Helianli couldn't help being surprised when he learned the news in the check-in room.
"No matter what, you should bear heavy responsibility for the defeat, otherwise how can you convince the people?"
Helianli was puzzled.
"Liu Xiang, the Minister of Household Affairs, would like to see you."
Liu Xiang came in and said with a smile: "The king is in a good mood!"
"What is Mr. Liu doing here?"
"I haven't asked the king for help for a long time..."
hehe!
Helianli smiled.
“The weather is nice today!”
"Um!"
"The princess went to see your majesty earlier!"
"Uh-huh?"
"The princess said, He Lianrong is pretty good."
Liu Xiang stood up and said goodbye.
Helianli smiled, "I still remember how cute the princess was when she first met her. When she grew up, she turned out to be really smart. The day after tomorrow is my granddaughter's birthday. If the princess is free, you can take the time to sit there."
Liu Xiang smiled and said, "The princess will definitely go there happily."
Liuxiang left immediately and later found Changling who was still in the palace.
"Talk about old friends?" Chang Ling stood there in a light-colored long skirt. She seemed to be tall and graceful, but her eyes were deep and cold, "Helianli is old and cunning. I just want to make an observation. If I am valuable, then, then...
Bring us closer together. The world is bustling with people, and everyone is benefiting from coming and going."
"The world is bustling with people, all for profit and gain. The princess's words are thought-provoking!" Liu Xiang's eyes were full of admiration.
There was more memory in Changling's eyes, "It was his words!"
"The princess said..."
A palace man came over and said, "Princess, Commander Helian of the Eagle Guard invites the princess."
When we arrived at Eagle Guard, He Lianhong, who had long hair reaching her waist, was watering the flowers in the yard.
The flowers are delicate and beautiful, and water drops flow down to the roots.
"Aunt Hong, water the roots." Changling said with a smile.
"There are countless ways to torture people in the Eagle Guard, one of which is to pour water from the mouth, filling the intestines. I want to try if this flower can talk after being filled with water."
Changling: "..."
Water overflows from the flowers and flows all the way.
Changling felt as if he was being tortured.
After the water was poured, Helianhong took a step back and asked with a smile: "What do you think this flower looks like now?"
"The tortured person."
Helian Hong's thin lips parted slightly, "You have a good understanding."
She clapped her hands, pointed at the flower tree and said, "Dig it up and burn it!"
"Why is Aunt Hong doing this?" Changling said, "Let the flowers bloom and wither naturally."
"You read too many books, which is not a good thing!"
"Why?"
The two of them walked slowly in the yard.
He Lianhong walked on the left with his hands behind his hands, "A person who is committed should study with a purpose. A person who is inactive should read according to his spontaneity.
Earlier, the books you read were scattered, and this was done casually.
Later, you read more travel notes and melancholy poems.
Changling, are you dissatisfied with His Majesty?"
Changling nodded, "Some, but they have dissipated."
"Your Majesty's decision to let Princess Chen Qiushang is a calculation. You must know that the emperor is ruthless before he is affectionate. In the eyes of the emperor, everyone should be a pawn in his hands.
Afterwards, His Majesty was quite upset, so he compensated you in every possible way. This is extremely rare."
"Aunt Hong, I have never hated my father." Changling smiled easily, "The Chen Qiu family is bound to die. In Daliao, widows are nothing. With my conditions, remarrying can still attract those men, so
, I really don’t hate my father.”
"So, you were originally unwilling to get involved in government affairs, but now you are acting uncharacteristically. Why is that?" He Lianhong looked sideways at her, with more scrutiny in his cold eyes.
Changling suddenly smiled, "I'm bored!"
He Lianhong smiled and said: "Yeah! I'm bored. So, are you interested in Eagle Guard?"
"Eagle Guard?"
"Yes. The position of Commander-in-Chief of the Eagle Guard has always been that of the clan."
"Not interested!"
"Um!"
"All I want is entertainment, not power."
Helian Hong nodded, "That's fine."
Changling said goodbye.
Behind her, Helian Hong stood in the yard, the wind blowing her long hair that was scattered around her back, over her shoulders, and covering half of her face.
"Changling, don't go the wrong way!"
Changling came out of the Eagle Guard, and Chen Qiu led the horse over.
"Princess, are you going home?" Zhan Juan asked.
"Um!"
When he got home, Changling said, "I want to take a bath if you ask me to boil some water."
After entering the bathroom, two maids helped her undress.
The dress slipped off, and the maid praised: "The princess's skin is like gelatin, which can be broken by blowing a bomb."
Changling stepped into the tub, closed his eyes, and let the two maids knead him.
After an unknown amount of time, a maid whispered: "Princess, would you like some more water?"
"No."
Changling opened his eyes and stood up.
Returning to the study, Changling took a volume and read it slowly.
As soon as she took a look, her eyes lost focus.
Do you have any poems?
Under the setting sun, she looked up at the man and asked shyly.
The man's face was a little blurry and glowing in the sunset.
He looked down at himself slightly, frowning, but after thinking for a moment, he said:
"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk."
At that moment, Changling was completely intoxicated.
She hoped that that moment would last forever and that time would freeze.
But she still returned to Ningxing.
"Who will control my destiny?"
Changling put down the book.
"Princess!"
An old nun came to the palace.
"Princess, all the young talents from Ningxing are here. Princess, take a look. If you like anyone, of course someone in the palace will make the decision for the princess."
Changling shook his head, "No need."
The old nanny smiled and said: "The male is getting married, and the female is getting married! Although this royal woman is noble, she can't be alone!"
Changling looked at her slowly. The old nanny was startled by her cold eyes, and said with a smile: "Among these people, there are some who are handsome, talented, and brave...couldn't the princess take a fancy to them?"
"Yes! I don't even like it!"
Changling thought of that scene again.
Under the moonlight, she asked casually: "Do you have any poems?"
Yang Xuan smiled, "Yes!"
Then.
It really does exist.
The old nanny sighed, picked up the register and excused herself.
Walking to the door, she heard the princess chanting softly.
"The bright moon was there at that time, and it illuminated the colorful clouds."
