Li Zheng Palace. The palace was quiet. The maids and chamberlains were careful when walking around. The empress was kind and never punished the palace people lightly. Therefore, the palace people felt dissatisfied after the queen was "slapped" by her majesty, and expressed their "silence" to them.

Express support for the Queen...
When Wang De came to the palace gate, someone had already come in to report. Soon, two chamberlains came out and ushered him into the palace.
The queen is in the side hall. The afternoon sunlight pours in from the window panes on the west side, making the light and shade colorful. The queen in palace attire is sitting on a chair, looking beautiful and elegant.
"The old slave has an audience with the queen."
"Excuse me and come here at this time, but what are your orders?"
The queen sat on the chair with a smile on her face.
Wang De hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty said that he was discussing important matters with the ministers in the previous court just now. He is a little tired at the moment and needs to take a rest... Therefore, he cannot come to the banquet."
The palace attendants standing on both sides lowered their heads one after another, and the atmosphere in the palace became increasingly cold and solemn.
The Queen's beautiful face did not change at all, and her tone remained gentle and gentle: "Your Majesty has been working hard for military and national affairs. You should serve well and not slack off."
Wang De bowed and agreed: "Here."
The queen took a sip of tea while holding the teacup in her delicate hands. She did not ask Wang De to step back, but instead asked: "I wonder what your Majesty was discussing in the previous court?"
Wang De pondered for a moment, then told Fang Jun's remarks about "the nature of money". After thinking about it, he concealed the fact that His Majesty asked for "new paper" but was rejected by Fang Jun.
He was outside the palace gate at that time, so he heard the words inside the palace clearly...
The queen was very interested, carefully considered and understood this, and praised: "The Duke of Yue is really knowledgeable about heaven and man, he is unparalleled in the world."
"..." Wang De looked at the Queen's shining beautiful eyes with an expression of admiration and admiration. Although it was the same as His Majesty's praise of Fang Jun, he didn't know why, but he felt something in his heart.
The praise of "unparalleled in the world"
Like has a completely different meaning.
He had seen that look of reverence and admiration on some of the little maids in the palace when they received his blessing...
He doesn't understand women, but he has seen too many women, especially in the palace, a place where women's temperament is exaggerated to the extreme. He has a unique grasp of women's character.
Are you too worried?
I hope so.
Otherwise... I almost don't dare to think about it. In a blink of an eye, I heard the queen say softly: "Okay, since His Majesty is not coming, the banquet prepared should not be wasted. Come, please invite the two His Highnesses from Jinyang and Xincheng.
Come to the banquet... If Mr. Wang is not busy, why not
Do you want to stay for dinner?"
"Thank you Queen, I still need to go back to serve Your Majesty. I don't dare to stay outside."
"Then you go back."
"Old slave, please retire."
Seeing Wang De walk out of the palace door, the queen raised her lips and pursed her lips.
Presumably Wang De will tell the truth about his reaction...
In addition, not everyone in the Li Zheng Palace is her confidant. There are always some people who are secretly picking things up. Her tone and expression just now cannot be concealed from others. News may spread outside the palace later.
Even if the "discord between the emperor and the empress" can give others an opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole, there is no need to sacrifice the dignity and reputation of a queen, right?
Although she couldn't resist this strategy that was almost "improving" herself, the queen was extremely dissatisfied.
…
"Did you go to the Li Zheng Palace?" "The queen was very enthusiastic and prepared a banquet to invite your majesty. It was obviously a good opportunity to bridge the relationship, but your majesty was too tired and refused to attend the appointment. The queen may have misunderstood, so I went to explain.
, it was the old slave who made his own decision,
I apologize, old slave."
Seeing Wang De kneeling on the ground to plead guilty and give an explanation, Li Chengqian's eyes were deep and unmoving, and he asked: "What did the queen say?"
Wang Dedao: "The queen is generous and considers your majesty's hard work on state affairs. She urges this slave to serve your majesty well."
"What did the queen ask you?"
"this……"
"Tell the truth." "Well..." Wang De was sweating a little. He knew that there must be His Majesty's spies in the Li Zheng Palace. If he lied, it would be a serious crime. He could only tell the truth: "The Queen asked why Your Majesty is busy.
, the old slave told the affairs of the previous dynasty
Tell your love to the queen."
"What did you say?"
"... Mainly because of what Duke Yue said about the 'essence of money'."
"How did the Queen react?"
"The queen... praised Duke Yue as 'unparalleled in the world' and admired him very much."
Wang De was sweating like rain, and he regretted going to the Li Zheng Palace to explain his actions...
"Haha, it seems that the queen is very fond of Duke Yue."
Li Chengqian sneered, his face gloomy.
Wang De knelt down and bowed his head, refusing to speak.
……What's the matter?
Could it be that your Majesty had another reason for slapping the Queen? loadAdv(10,0);
Is it related to the Duke of Yue?
Mom, no way...
Wang De was trembling with fear, like a gleam on his back.
*****
At night.
Daxingshan Temple.
Bursts of Sanskrit sounds echoed melodiously in the temple. The locust trees planted five hundred years ago and the ginkgo trees with lush leaves and pavilions were swaying under the shadow of the moon. Li Shenfu sat alone in the Zen room among the trees with his eyes closed.
Drinking tea and listening to Sanskrit chants, I felt a sense of tranquility in my heart. The struggle for power, grand ambitions, and prosperity of descendants were all suppressed by the Supreme Master at this moment.
Suppressed by Buddhism, there was a faint wish to be released from the world. A figure strolled in from outside the door, stepped on the smooth floor and sat down opposite Li Shenfu. He smiled and said: "Uncle Wang is really very elegant. Let's have a cup of tea and some Sanskrit music."
Qu, cut off the world of mortals, escape from the world, and achieve a perfect state of life.
"
After saying that, he poured a cup of tea and took a sip. Li Shenfu opened his eyes, looked at the middle-aged man opposite him who was about forty years old and had a pale appearance, and said lightly: "Greed will never be quenched, and the six roots will not be destroyed."
Jing, can listening to the Sanskrit sound purify the mind? Even if the Buddha is close to him, I am afraid that it will be difficult to save it.
We are ordinary people."
The middle-aged man laughed and nodded: "Uncle Wang has a clear mind and is a hero of the world."
Li Shenfu took a sip of tea and asked: "We should avoid meeting each other at this critical moment, so as not to be targeted by Li Junxian. Since you are willing to take risks, what big thing happened?"
The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly brightened and he looked excited: "Uncle, does he know what happened in the Li Zheng Hall today?"
"Li Zheng Palace?" Li Shenfu was slightly startled and said, "I heard that the queen organized a banquet and wanted to entertain your majesty. She wanted to bridge the gap and restore old friendships. However, your majesty was still angry and refused... Is that all?"
He has his own news channel in the palace. Although he is not at His Majesty's side like the person in front of him, he can still know what is going on in the palace at all times.
The middle-aged man laughed "haha", then leaned forward slightly, approached Li Shenfu, and whispered: "Wang De went to the Li Zheng Hall to explain to His Majesty. When talking about Fang Jun, the Queen's original words were 'Both civil and military.
second to none'."
Li Shenfu frowned: "Although Fang Er is not a good person, such praise is not an exaggeration. What's more, his support for Your Majesty and the Queen is nothing less than a gift of reinvention. Why is it strange for the Queen to praise you so much?
"
"Haha, my uncle doesn't know. Such compliments are not surprising, but the queen's tone and expression when she said these words were like a girl in a boudoir who is full of yearning and admiration, and is in love..."
"..."
Li Shenfu's eyes widened and turned pale in shock: "You, you, you... are you serious about this?"
The middle-aged man asked again: "Why do you think His Majesty has been so grumpy recently that he even slapped the Queen?"
Li Shenfu was speechless, his mind was so shocked by the news.
Is it possible that the Queen has an affair with Fang Jun?!
Did His Majesty feel it or witness it with his own eyes, so he slapped the Queen out of anger? This is indeed the most reasonable explanation, because His Majesty and the young Queen couple have supported each other through such a dark period of precarious life and falling into the abyss at any time, even though they did not
No amount of true love should be carried side by sideloadAdv(10,0);
Sharing the friendship of wealth and honor, how could Li Chengqian hit someone with his character?
Mother!
Li Shenfu didn't know what to say.
But in an instant, he realized the benefits of this matter to him. His eyes flashed and he stared at the middle-aged man: "Xian Xiezhen, if it is true, then let's..."
"A God-sent opportunity!"
The middle-aged man said decisively.
Li Shenfu's old heart beat rapidly, and his mouth became dry for a while. He took a sip of tea to calm down, and then asked: "Brother, is it okay?"
The middle-aged man said: "I have never mentioned this matter in front of my brother, and he doesn't know anything about it. But even though he is dormant for a while now, how can he forget the bloody feud? He thinks about avenging His Highness the Crown Prince all the time!" Li Shenfu shook his head and said.
"This is a big matter, involving one's family and one's life, how can we be self-righteous? Let's contact your brother first, let him know with emotion, and act with reason. Only when he agrees can we take action. If we don't move, that's it.
If you move, you must
Done!" The middle-aged people disagreed. Haven't you always looked down on those people who "do great things without sacrificing their own lives"? You think that it's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to God to make things happen. As long as the opportunity comes, you can do it... Now you start to "No" again.
If you move, it will be done. If you move, it will be done.
"Up?"
Is there anything in this world that is guaranteed to happen?
"Don't worry, uncle, I will look for an opportunity to inform my brother about this matter. No matter what, I will definitely seek his approval. With his secret help, everything will be safe!"
Li Shenfu nodded: "It's not too late. The sooner you contact your brother, the better. Just wait for the opportunity to come and take action immediately to complete the battle."
"Well, my nephew, I will leave for now."
"Be careful to hide your whereabouts and don't be suspected."
"Uncle, don't worry."
Seeing the figure of the middle-aged man disappear in the shadow of the trees outside the door, Li Shenfu let out a long breath. It is not difficult to achieve the goal, but it is difficult to deal with the consequences after doing it. Such a heinous crime of rebellion will definitely be punished by thousands of people.
He pointed out that even if his allies at this moment would fight back, all he had to do was cut off the "traitor" and he would be able to live openly
Participation rights and redistribution of interests.
Therefore, he will never allow that to happen and cannot bear the crime of "regicide".
Now that she has an unparalleled shield, she can put all the blame on her, while she stays out of the matter, sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, and leads the clan to the court in the name of supporting the country and assisting the new monarch. As for whether the queen has anything to do with Fang.
Jun has an affair...it doesn't really matter, as long as someone thinks he has it, that's enough.
