There was a knock on the door and a voice came, "Your Majesty, Chen Qing has something to report."
"Come in."
Chen Qing pushed the door open and went in. The prince didn't even raise his head. Chen Qing held the painting in his hand and said, "The Crown Princess asked her subordinates to check this painting. It was painted by Zhao's shop in imitation of the Princess's handwriting..."
"
The prince frowned.
However, after Chen Qingcai reported this, the boy knocked on the door and said, "Your Majesty, General Li is here."
The prince looked at Chen Qing and said, "Step back first and report later."
After saying that, he ordered the boy, "Please come in, General Li."
Whether the picture was painted can be explained clearly in a few words. General Li rushed back from the border all the way, so it was naturally more important. Chen Qing immediately retreated.
The prince stood up to greet him. General Li entered the study, saluted the prince and said, "I wonder if the prince has called me back to the capital?"
The prince helped General Li stand up and said, "The plan failed to keep up with the change. I called you back to the capital originally to command the iron cavalry, but I let the iron cavalry fly away, causing you to travel in vain."
The prince and Prince Xin discussed the formation of the Iron Cavalry privately before reporting it to the Emperor. Because the gold mine was a windfall for the court, and because Su Tang had discovered it, both the prince and Prince Xin felt that it was a sure thing.
So the prince summoned General Li back to the capital first.
Over the years, the prince has thought about forming an iron cavalry more than once, but before he could do so, various accidents occurred and the money used to form the iron cavalry was misappropriated, so that the formation has not been successful until now.
The prince was also afraid, so he called his people back first and made preparations as soon as the gold from the Blackwater Mine was delivered to Beijing, just in case.
But he guarded others, failed to guard himself, and messed up the matter.
General Li felt regretful in his heart, but he knew that without the iron cavalry, the prince would be even more miserable than he was. General Li smiled and said, "What did the prince say? I have been stationed at the border for three years. I also miss Kyoto and my mother at home. If it hadn't been for the prince to tell me this time,
Zhao, I really don’t know when I can come back.”
The prince patted General Li on the shoulder and said, "Thanks to your hard work these years, the border is relatively stable now. Now that you are back, please stay longer."
General Li nodded.
The prince asked General Li to sit down and talk.
Tianxiangyuan.
The princess was eating bird's nest soup, and Ning's mother came in quickly and said, "Princess, General Guide has returned to Beijing."
The princess was stunned for a moment and said, "General Guide has not returned to Beijing for several years, why did he come back suddenly?"
Ever since she learned from the prince that the Marquis of Mingde had brought her to the capital because of General Guide, the princess planned to wait for General Guide to return to the capital and find an opportunity to ask him, but she didn't know when General Guide would be able to return to the capital.
When I came back, I didn't expect that I would return to Beijing without any warning.
Ning's mother didn't say she knew 100% of the princess's thoughts, but she could still guess almost 10%. As soon as she heard that General Guide had come to the palace, she hurriedly came to report the princess. Normally, no maid would report such a thing.
The princess's, even if the news reaches Tianxiangyuan.
Mother Ning said, "General Guide has not only returned to Beijing, but he is also in the palace."
The princess quickly put down the bird's nest soup and stood up.
Mother Ning still had something in her hand, so she quickly handed it to the maid, and then followed her.
The princess walked very quickly. She was afraid that if she was one step too late, General Guide would leave. Fortunately, the princess had to hurry and hurry. If it were a little later, she would really have to go to General Guide's mansion to ask.
It was okay to ask casually about what happened twenty years ago, but it would be too fussy to make a special trip to visit.
When the princess caught up, Manager Zhao was escorting General Guide out of the mansion. The prince was eager to interrogate Chen Qing about the investigation, so he did not meet with General Guide and sent him out. There was no need for so many courtesy between them.
The princess chased after him, "General Guide stayed behind."
Hearing the princess's voice, Manager Zhao quickly stopped. General Guide turned around and saw the princess, and saluted, "I have met Madam Sister-in-law."
The princess was a little embarrassed, as it seemed that General Guide had called her that since the first time he saw her, and it had never changed.
The princess said, "I wonder if I can have a few words with General Guide alone?"
General Guide looked surprised.
He didn't understand what the princess had to say to him alone.
Manager Zhao stepped aside sensibly.
General Guide said, "Then please ask Madam-in-law to go to the pavilion to talk."
He has long been used to being exposed to the sun, and he is afraid that the princess will not be able to bear it and will get sunburned, and the prince will definitely settle the score with him. This chapter has been completed!
