Chapter 319 Three fights in Ruyang begin to rise to the sky
Chapter 321 Three fights in Ruyang begin to rise to the sky
In the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Xiu was approving official documents on behalf of his father. He suddenly laughed "ha" and handed the document in his hand to Xue Bai.
"This letter will be approved by you personally."
Xue Bai looked at it and saw that it said Ren Xue Bai was concurrently the deputy envoy to the Jiannan Army.
This was the first reward he received for donating weapons to Wang Zhongsi.
He then took the seal from Shangshu Zuopushe handed over by Li Xiu and approved the appointment with a bang.
"It is rare for someone to hold the prime minister's seal and appoint himself an official." Li Xiu smiled and said, "As you wish, everything has gone smoothly recently."
Xue Bai said: "The more times like this, the more vigilant we must be. If the national affairs are not going well and an individual is going too well, it may not be a good thing."
Li Xiu nodded in agreement, thinking that if his grandfather could think this way, the danger to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion would be much less in the future.
However, Xue Bai seemed to have a humble attitude, but in fact he seized this opportunity to promote party members. By using the power of the Right Prime Minister, he had moved Yuan Jie to be the magistrate of Jie County, moved Huangfu Ran to be the military supervisor, and moved Du Fu to the left.
After picking up the relics, Liu Yan, Wu Qi, and Yang Wan were placed in the position of collecting salt in Hedong... Looking at the time, Huangfu Ran and Du Fu should soon return to Beijing.
"By the way, there is news about the princess's marriage to An Qingzong." Li Xiu took the document and said casually: "The saint conferred the title of Princess Rongyi on the daughter of Prince Qing."
Xue Bai's movements stagnated slightly when he heard this, and he quickly regained his composure, but he was very surprised in his heart.
"I guessed wrong. I always thought that the saint would take the opportunity to reward his niece." Seeing that he didn't answer, Li Xiu laughed at himself and said in a meaningful tone: "After all, it was Xue Lang who was the best. He kept silent and made it happen.
It’s a big deal.”
"This matter has something to do with me?" Xue Bai was surprised.
"Between you and me, there is no point in trying to get along." Li Xiu said: "If others don't know, how can I still not know about your relationship with Prince Qing? This time, it wasn't you who helped Prince Qing's Mansion earn the title of Princess Princess?"
"no."
Li Xiu didn't believe it, raised his hand and pointed at Xue Bai, and said in a dissatisfied and helpless tone: "Looking back, you have plotted again. You alienated us from An Lushan, but you actually meant to force us to turn to King Qing. After that, you
Then use the power of the Right Prime Minister's Office to divide An's father and son, or even directly win over An Lushan?"
"If so, why should I go to all this trouble? Wouldn't it be better to cooperate with you from the beginning?"
"It's different." Li Xiu said: "The conditions are different. At that time, the Right Prime Minister's Office was more powerful, but now it can only be at your mercy."
"Juro, please don't hit me again. I don't dare to mess with the Right Prime Minister's Mansion."
"But I have to say that now that this game has been played, you have begun to gain an advantage. Some of the important ministers in the court and the generals in the border towns have begun to turn to Prince Qing and oppose the crown prince. Princess Rongyi's marriage has changed the situation.
It’s different.”
Xue Bai said: "I can honestly say that I was not behind this matter. Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it. Do you think I don't know what you did at the Taichi Banquet?"
"What did I do?" Xue Bai asked.
Li Xiu said: "Yao Siyi would not accuse you of filthy harem for no reason. You must have gone to meet someone to facilitate this matter."
Since he couldn't explain clearly, Xue Bai just followed what Li Xiu thought.
But as just said, being too smooth may not be a good thing. Xue Bai speculated in his mind and gradually came up with a rather frightening guess——
Could it be that Li Longji had discovered that Li Linfu was ill, and quietly looked for the next force to check the East Palace, deliberately using him to support Li Cong, and then allowed Li Cong to marry An Lushan.
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty were just fighting cocks raised by saints. If one of them was defeated, another one would be replaced, but no matter which one it was, it could never peck its owner.
The most terrifying thing about this conjecture is that Xue Bai felt that his several secret conversations with Li Cong had fallen into Li Longji's sight, so he would indulge himself.
Of course, this is just a conjecture after all. There are various possibilities for Princess Rongyi's matter, either because of Li Cong's efforts, or because the clan does not have a more suitable candidate.
~~
There have been a lot of things going on recently, which makes people feel that time passes very slowly. In fact, mid-April has not passed yet, and Xue Bai has been married for less than a month.
Yan Jiming was still in Chang'an, and Xue Bai made a special trip to see him after leaving Youxiang's Mansion.
As soon as he was introduced into the courtyard, he heard Yan Jiming pointing at him and laughing.
"My brother-in-law is here because he must have something to discuss."
"How can I see it?"
"Who knows that you, Yushi Xue, are busy." Yan Jiming said, "Even when Du Wulang went to Jincheng County to take up his post, you didn't plan to see him off."
Others may not believe it, but Du Wulang's appointment to Jincheng was not among the events that Xue Bai was concerned about recently.
"He hasn't set off yet?"
"Look at you, now you are no longer Du Qi's best friend, but you are me instead." Yan Jiming shook his head and smiled, "We are discussing how to send Wu Lang off tomorrow."
"Knowing that he can delay, he actually delayed taking office in Jincheng County until tomorrow."
While they were talking, the two entered the hall and saw that there were already some people sitting in the hall. They seemed to be talented people from Chang'an City. Among them were two people, Li Qijun and Li Jiayou, who were the same year as Xue Bai. It was obvious that Yan Jiming was very popular.
In addition, Anqingzong and Shi Chaoying were also known to Xue Bai.
"Xue Lang is here, we are playing the games you came up with."
Shi Chaoying was the most outspoken and enthusiastic person. He stood up and said, "How can you be so smart? You can come up with so many weird things."
"It's just for fun." Xue Bai responded, looking at An Qingzong and said, "I haven't congratulated Brother Renxing yet."
An Qingzong still had two notes stuck on his face, his cheeks were red, he must have drunk a lot of fine wine, and he asked in surprise: "Congratulations to me? Congratulations to me for always losing the game?"
With one sentence, everyone laughed.
They all looked like they were just having fun, as if they had no intention of inquiring about news from the court. When Xue Bai saw them, he didn't believe that An Lushan's eldest son was so indifferent to the world.
"Brother Renxing, don't you know about the marriage granted by the saint?"
"I heard about it." Anqing Zong said: "I heard it mentioned at Xue Lang's wedding banquet, but since Princess Hezheng doesn't like me, I should let this matter go."
"Then Brother Renxing should treat me to a drink and thank me for being the bearer of the good news."
Everyone was surprised and asked, "Does Xue Lang know about An Dalang's marriage?"
Xue Bai didn't show off, and said: "Princess Rongyi is the daughter of Prince Qing."
"Really? An Dalang is finally getting married."
Everyone in the hall congratulated Anqing Zong.
Shi Chaoying was very familiar with An Qingzong, so she joked a few words, and then worried about how to organize the wedding. She could stay in Chang'an longer and drink An Qingzong's wedding wine before leaving.
At this time, no one asked Xue Bai how he got the news so quickly and whether he heard it from Prince Qing.
Xue Bai had already prepared answers to these questions, and at this moment he felt like he had been punched in the cotton.
After talking and laughing for a while, An Qingzong looked at Xue Bai, obviously planning to ask something.
Xue Bai originally thought he was going to ask the saint about the deep meaning behind this betrothal marriage.
"Does Mr. Xue know Princess Rongyi? What is her temperament like?"
"Although I don't know it, he should be considered gentle and kind in the clan."
"Then she..." An Qingzong hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Is she beautiful?"
Xue Bai said: "I don't know about this."
"Don't get me wrong." An Qingzong said with a smile: "I don't like beautiful people, just delicate ones."
"I understand." Yan Jiming said, "They all say they like pretty ones."
Shi Chaoying said: "I can go and be friends with Princess Rongyi and take a look at her appearance first."
While everyone was joking, no one mentioned the interests behind this marriage.
Because of this, Xue Bai didn't believe that they really didn't think deeply.
While they were talking, Du Wulang also arrived, and he didn't need anyone to pick him up. He was very familiar with Yan Jiming's house, so he walked over by himself.
"I came late, my grandfather had to give me many instructions..."
Before he finished speaking, others had already entered the hall in a hurry. When they saw Xue Bai, they were surprised and happy, and shouted: "Why are you free here today?"
Seeing Du Wulang so surprised, Xue Bai suddenly understood for a moment.
In the past, the two were almost inseparable. After returning from Yanshi, Xue Bai was busy with official duties and hadn't seen each other for a long time. Du Wulang also had more new friends and new fun.
"Just in time." Xue Bai said: "Let's see Twelve Lang."
Du Wulang was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, the two of them seemed a little distant.
But then, Du Wulang took Xue Bai in his arms, dragged him to the side, and whispered softly: "I don't believe you are free. You must have an ulterior motive for coming here."
"Why?"
"I don't know about you yet?" Du Wulang glanced sideways at Xue Bai and said proudly: "A person who is devoted to his official career."
"Then you guessed wrong."
"Impossible. If you are really free and stay at home with your wife and Qinglan, even if you are looking for my sister, you will never come to see Yan Twelve Lang first."
Xue Bai was silent for a while.
He really didn't see Du Wulang being so smart.
"Hey, let me get it right. Tell me, what do you want to do? Who are you here for?"
"Don't tell me in a hurry," Xue Bai said, "I'll see if you can observe it later."
"I'm too lazy to observe. We'll play games later."
"You don't like brainstorming, do you?"
Du Wulang giggled a few times and said, "That was in front of you, but here, everyone is taught by me."
At the end of his words, he raised his voice, turned to everyone, and said, "Disciples, come and play."
When he arrived at Yan Jiming's house today, Xue Bai couldn't see through Anqing Zong.
He observed for a while and found that An Qingzong had a good-natured character. He lost almost every game he played and always accepted punishment with a smile. In the end, he did not ask about the marriage, but was quite concerned about parting ways with Du Wulang tomorrow.
From this aspect, Anqing Zong is very similar to An Lushan. They are both good at disguising and hiding their ambitions under the illusion of cowardice and honesty. They are also masters at pretending to be pigs and eating tigers.
~~
The next day, everyone sent Du Wulang to Jincheng to take up his post.
For Du Youlin, he was very sentimental at first when his son was about to leave his side, but as the day dragged on, he finally got annoyed. On the day of farewell, all he felt was disgust.
On the contrary, it was Shi Chaoying who showed the most reluctance, pulling Du Wulang along to give him many instructions.
"I heard that the treasures in Jincheng County are cheaper than those in Chang'an. You can buy some for me when you arrive."
"All right."
"Farewell is imminent, so I should give you a poem. I'm afraid you might think my poem is not good."
"No." Du Wulang said: "I think your poems... are still very unique."
Xue Yunniang sat on the carriage and opened the curtain to take a look. Seeing this, she was a little worried that Shi Chaoying had fallen in love with her husband. She caught a glimpse of Xue Bai and Yan Jiming beside her, and instantly felt much relieved.
Finally, Du Wulang waved his hand and said: "I will be transferred back to Chang'an soon."
"Don't worry, manage the situation well." Xue Bai responded.
Seeing Du Wulang's carriage and horses heading west, Xue Bai said: "Let's go back to the city."
Turning his head, he was surprised to find An Qingzong's eyes were slightly red and he had a look of reluctance.
"Brother Renxing, what are you doing?"
An Qingzong sighed and said: "We say goodbye today. I don't know when I can see Wu Lang again... I am too sentimental and make Xue Lang laugh."
After such a comparison, Xue Bai felt that he was a bit too ruthless compared to Anqingzong. He even came to see Du Wulang off just to take the opportunity to observe Anqingzong.
~~
Now that Li Xiu had seen the official document, sure enough, within a few days, the saint issued an order to confer a marriage, and Li Peiniang, the daughter of Li Cong, was made Princess Rongyi and married to Anqing Zong.
Li Cong had nothing to do. Li Peiniang was actually Li Ying's eldest daughter. If Li Ying was still the prince, she would be worthy of the title of princess. However, since Li Ying was deposed and killed, this matter made a small number of people angry.
Confuse.
In fact, only a few people knew that Li Cong's children were adopted. Li Longji had always forbidden others to mention the case of the three common people. Unless the future emperor overturns the case, these matters will probably disappear into the dust.
Therefore, this matter can still be seen as an attempt to win over An Lushan, at least An Qingzong himself did not show any dissatisfaction.
Shi Chaoying made up her mind to go to Prince Qing's Mansion to see Princess Rongyi. She was fearless and she actually went there, threatening to ask An Qingzong to invite him to a drink before she would elaborate.
Anqingzong held a banquet on April 22 to thank relatives and friends.
Xue Bai was the one who announced the good news, so he was among those invited. Anqingzong even asked him for advice on who else in the clan should be invited, because he felt that he knew everything about the affairs of the court... Of course Xue Bai knew everything, after all, he was now hiding
The right phase of.
"Prince Si Qi Li Zhen, Si Xue Wang Li Xuan and other emperor's nephews must be invited, but the princes and princesses do not need to be invited. Oh, and there is also Ru Yang Wang Li Jing. He has always been close to Prince Qing, so we must not leave him out.
.”
"Okay, I'm alone in Chang'an, surrounded by rude barbarians. Thanks to Xue Lang's help..."
Xue Bai didn't think that Anqingzong could even arrange a banquet list. He was just borrowing his connections, and even had a hidden intention of testing.
It doesn't matter, just test each other and everything will gradually become clear sooner or later.
In this way, Xue Bai finally had the opportunity to contact Li Jing, the king of Ruyang.
On the day of the banquet, he arrived early at An's Mansion in the southeast corner of Qinrenfang. The mansion was given by a saint and had three levels of grandeur. It was like a small palace in a palace, and it was extremely luxurious.
Xue Bai arrived early enough, but Shi Chaoying arrived even earlier. When he saw him, he asked, "Has Mr. Xue seen Mr. Yan Twelve?"
"Presumably he will come over later."
"I must be talking about poetry and calligraphy with some young lady again. Yan Twelve is too romantic." Shi Chaoying said: "But I heard about your deeds, Xue Lang, and you are actually a gentleman?"
"Misunderstanding." Xue Bai said: "How many guests are here?"
"Quite a few, An Dalang is waiting for you. Let's drink and talk among ourselves first."
Xue Bai went to deliver the congratulatory gifts first. He took a look at the gift list and found that Li Jing had already arrived, so he walked into the courtyard.
An's mansion is large and luxurious, with graceful corridors and sparse ornaments. Through the bamboo curtains, the melodious sound of the piano can be heard floating in the air.
Walking around the flower path, a group of people stood in front of them, looking up at a small pavilion.
In the attic, a woman was playing the piano with her back to everyone.
Xue Bai had no interest in this woman, and looked around the crowd watching the piano, trying to identify Li Jing, the king of Ruyang.
He didn't come unprepared. He had already inquired about some information about Li Jing and found out that he was one of the eight immortals in wine. Du Fu's poem said: "Three battles in Ruyang began to rise to the sky. The mouth of the carriage was drooling when the road met, and I couldn't bear to seal it to Jiuquan."
, known as the "King of Brewing".
In addition, Li Jing is a handsome man. It is said that he is the most handsome among all the kings.
After looking carefully for a while, Xue Bai judged that Li Jing should not be among these people watching the piano, because there was no one with a better appearance than Li Zhen among them.
But someone in the crowd recognized Xue Bai.
Li Chenghong, King of Guangwu, turned around and laughed loudly: "Xue Lang is here so well, why not write a lyric to suit this song?"
"I have met King Guangwu. My talent is crude and I am not worthy of such an immortal song."
Xue Bai thought for a while and asked tentatively: "I heard that many people who are good at drinking came today. Why don't King Guangwu go and have a drink?"
"They are drinking there, but don't be in a hurry. The masters of drinking come late."
While they were talking, a beautiful maid came downstairs and said, "I have met Xue Lang. My master has invited me."
"Who is your lord?"
"Xue Lang will know when he climbs the building."
Xue Bai was determined to find Li Jing, but did not want to talk to the woman in the attic. He waved his hand and said, "I'm not good at music. I'm known as the 'white voice'. I don't dare to do anything behind the scenes, so I won't go up."
Shi Chaoying watched from the side and couldn't help but be surprised and praised: "You are indeed a gentleman. If it were Yan Twelve, he would have climbed up the stairs long ago when he met a lady who can play the piano."
…
Yan Jiming had just picked up some friends returning to Beijing outside Chunming Gate in Chang'an when he suddenly sneezed a few times.
He raised his head to look at the sky, tightened his tight clothes, and thought to himself that it was windy outside the city, so he should not risk the cold.
Don't incur romantic debts either.
"Twelve Lang."
"Chen Er, you have returned to Beijing." Yan Jiming turned around, met his friend, patted him on the shoulder, and then asked: "Who is this?"
"I won't tell you his name first. I'll read the poem he gave me first. The name of the poem is "Gift to Chen Erbu Que"."
"Okay, okay, let me hear what poem it is."
"Listen carefully... There are many scholars in the world, but the master alone has a reputation. I offer my acceptance to the East View, and the king asks the chief minister. When the cold is cold, the horse will be anxious, but the horse will always be able to do it. Once you come to Qingmingli, you will never see anything happen."
“What a poem!”
Yan Jiming was not a dabbler like Shi Chaoying. He really understood poetry. Just listening to this poem, he knew that he was an extraordinary poet. He couldn't help but look at the down-and-out man who came with Chen Er in surprise.
"Chen Er, I probably know who this gentleman is."
~~
Anfu.
The beautiful maid expressed her deepest blessings to Xue Bai and said, "Please ask Mr. Xue to go up to the building and talk about it. You will not regret it."
Shi Chaoying became curious when he saw it, and encouraged Xue Bai: "I know you are more of a gentleman than Yan Twelve, so go up there."
Xue Bai heard that "I will definitely not regret it" and thought for sure. He secretly thought that maybe Li Jing was in the attic, so he said: "Okay."
Shi Chaoying actually wanted to go up and have a look, so she immediately followed him.
There was no one else in the attic, only the woman playing the piano.
Hearing the noise, she turned around, showing a face as beautiful as a flower.
But she is actually not young anymore. Although she looks like she is only thirty, Xue Bai thinks she should be more than forty.
It's not that you can tell from any details. After all, she takes good care of herself and has powder on her face. Xue Bai relies on intuition when looking at women.
"It has been famous for a long time, and today I finally met Xue Lang."
"My wife's piano music is beautiful, and the lingering sound is lingering like a wisp." Xue Bai praised a few words and said, "But I don't know what's the reason for inviting me to the building?"
The woman smiled, covered her lips with her hands, and said, "I heard that you are sitting in confusion, and I also want to gain some knowledge."
Xue Bai waved his hand and had no intention of discussing this with her in detail.
No matter how beautiful she is, he is not someone she can easily tease.
"Madam, if I have nothing else to do, I will take my leave."
"You are such an old-fashioned gentleman, you really don't want to talk to me in detail?" The woman stretched out her slender jade fingers, licked the strings, and said leisurely: "Don't regret it."
Xue Bai heard her tone so confident that he couldn't help but take another look at her. Even though he was far away, he could still see that her skin was crystal clear.
"What do you want to talk about, madam?"
"How about asking this young lady to go down first?"
Xue Bai turned to look at Shi Chaoying and saw that she was staring at the lady, her eyes fixed on her.
"What's wrong?"
"She really is." Shi Chaoying said, "I wish I could look like a woman like that."
"You are a woman."
"But I don't look like a woman."
Before Shi Chaoying had seen enough, the beautiful maid stepped forward and said, "Madam, please."
After she was driven down, Xue Baisui also went down to the attic, thinking about where to find Li Jing. This move made Shi Chaoying sigh with emotion, and once again praised Xue Bai's gentlemanly behavior.
But after spending a lot of time walking around the outer courtyard of An Mansion, Xue Bai still didn't see Li Jing.
This matter is strange. He has been in Chang'an for several years, but he has never seen the famous King of Ruyang.
When I walked back to the little pavilion, I suddenly heard someone shouting.
"Flower slave?!"
Xue Bai followed the voice and saw that it was Du Fu who spoke.
He knew that Du Fu would be returning to Beijing in the next few days, but he was busy with various matters and really had no time to go out of the city to greet him, and he believed that friends should not pay too much attention to red tape.
Looking in the direction Du Fu was looking, he saw the woman who had just been playing the piano standing by the railing of the attic.
"Du Zimei, wait until I change my clothes and talk."
"Haha, good!"
Du Fu was quite arrogant. He stood among a group of noble officials in luxurious clothes and did not feel ashamed at all.
It wasn't until he turned around and saw Xue Bai that he put away the pride in his eyes, stepped forward, and said with a big smile: "I heard you met Li Bai?"
Although they haven't seen each other for a long time, although there is a gap in their status, and although Xue Bai did not go out of the city to meet Du Fu... there is still no barrier between them when they meet each other.
When conversing with close friends, there is no formality. The first thing you ask is what you want to talk about most.
"Yes, I met Li Bai and we made poems all over the wall."
"Where's the wall?"
"Xu is still in Lantianyi, but Xu was demolished?"
"Do you know how excited I am when I hear your poems?" Du Fu sighed: "For this reason, I stayed awake for several nights. When I fell asleep again, I dreamed of being together with you, and I also wrote poems at the banquet."
"What poem?"
"Xue Bai is good at drunken singing while sitting in the middle. His lyrics are of his own style. Recently, the sentences in China are long. You and Li Bai of Shandong are good."
“What a poem!”
Suddenly someone came to touch me.
Du Fu turned around and said with a smile: "The King of Brewing is here."
"Don't call me 'flower slave' anymore?"
"According to your rules, I am the Brewing King when I am normal, and I am the Flower Slave when I am dressing up as a woman."
On the side, Shi Chaoying was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
She looked at the middle-aged man known as "Flower Slave" and "Brew King" with a shocked face. She looked at it for a long time and rubbed her eyes hard.
"You...you are...the beautiful lady upstairs?"
"It made the little lady of the Shi family laugh."
The middle-aged man apologetically crossed his arms and introduced himself.
"Li Jing, whose courtesy name is Sigong and whose nickname is Hua Nu. My friends call me 'Hua Nu' or 'King of Niang'. You just think that I am an old and dishonest person."
"Really...really?"
Shi Chaoying was still in disbelief. He took a few steps forward and looked at Li Jing's lips with wide eyes. Finally, he saw a thin and sparse stubble on his lips.
"This is really... King Ruyang looks more like a woman than me."
"You are a woman." Li Jing said with a smile, "But I am not. No matter how similar I am, I am not a woman after all."
I don’t know what others thought, but Shi Chaoying admired Li Jing extremely and asked: "Can the King of Ruyang teach me how to be a woman?"
"Of course it's okay."
While they were talking, Xue Bai stood beside him with a decent and embarrassed smile on his face, but he was thinking quickly in his heart about how to regain the opportunity to talk with Li Jing in detail.
In fact, he once guessed that Hua Nu was Li Jing.
The news he received said that Li Jing was "beautiful in appearance, intelligent and intelligent, and able to master the art of music." He also took a closer look at the woman just now, but he really didn't expect that she could act like that.
After thinking about it until the end, Xue Bai had a thought in his mind and simply gave up on trying to talk to Li Jing.
Since he showed that he didn't want to talk in detail from the beginning, if Li Jing's attitude changed when he revealed his true identity, it would be obvious that he had another purpose.
Therefore, Xue Bai always felt a little alienated.
He guessed that Li Jing also wanted to talk to him, so he just invited him to go upstairs.
"After all, Du Zimei still loves Li Taibai the most. He wrote "Songs of the Eight Immortals in Drinking" written by others. He only has two or three lines, and only Li Taibai has four lines. Just now, I was talking about Li Taibai with Xue Lang, and I was also in a trance, not caring about me at all."
Several people stood in the court and chatted for a while, and the topic gradually led to Xue Bai.
Du Fu said: "King Niang is still not satisfied. I have promoted He Jian, and you will be the next one."
"I think you should add one more person to the Eight Immortals you drank with." Li Jing said: "Xue Bai is so handsome and beautiful. Let's sleep in a restaurant with a glass of wine."
He looked directly at Xue Bai, smiled and nodded.
The two finally struck up a conversation.
"King Niang is laughing." Xue Bai said: "If I drink with King Niang, I should drink at least three cups."
"Are you willing to talk to me now?"
"I was rude just now. Please forgive me, King Niao."
"Okay, then you'll be fined three glasses of wine first."
…
Before the banquet started, Xue Bai drank three glasses of wine and fell drunk.
Li Jing had no choice but to call the beautiful maid and ordered: "Help Xue Lang to rest on the pavilion where I just rested, and light the wisteria incense I brought."
"Here."
Xue Bai climbed up to the attic, opened his eyes again, and saw Li Jing lighting incense with graceful movements.
"Xue Lang doesn't drink well."
"Far inferior to King Ruyang."
Li Jing played with the fireworks in his hand and asked casually: "You must have done something in the palace to be falsely accused of being a 'dirty palace'. Is this related to Princess Rongyi? After all, you are still the Anqing clan.
Matchmaker?"
Xue Bai rubbed his forehead, as if he was very drunk, and said: "King Ruyang misunderstood, this matter has nothing to do with me."
"Not telling the truth."
Li Jing smiled. Although he was no longer young, he still showed a kind of feminine handsomeness. He said leisurely: "I have already asked Prince Qing. He said that it was you who made Pei Niang the princess. Do you agree?"
You passed him, and you did it in the blink of an eye, how did you do it?"
When Xue Bai heard this, his first reaction was not fright, but surprise.
Although what Li Cong said was just a wild guess on his part, since he dared to tell Li Jing, it meant that Li Jing had a good relationship with him...
