Chapter 361: Three Days of Farewell and Remarkable Views
Cheng Wangfu, after He Qing left, the main courtyard where she lived was also tidied up.
Li Cheng said to Lin Zhixiu: "You can live wherever you want! The main house in the east courtyard should be warmer than here in winter!"
In the east courtyard, Lin Zhixiu had no interest in moving there, and she didn't even let the door in the middle be opened.
Although He Qing has been dealt with, there are still Concubine Chong and Madam Feng over there.
Pang Yuan is blind, arrogant and brainless, and acts impulsively. Feng Jinling, on the other hand, is timid and thieves, so he can do something dirty. If they two work together, something might happen! I am about to give birth, but I can't take any more risks.
Risked.
But if you tell him this, he will definitely deal with Feng Jinling! Just after driving away the main concubine, he started to deal with the side concubines and concubines...
The emperor really can't tolerate me anymore.
"I'm used to living here, and the delivery room has been tidied up. It would be troublesome to move there again! Let's do this for now, wait until the baby is born."
Li Cheng was anxious to let Lin Zhixiu become his concubine as soon as possible, so that his son would be his legitimate son when he was born. So, these days, he coaxed Lin Zhixiu and told her not to worry.
At the same time, he coaxed the emperor and asked him to hurry up.
The emperor ignored him, so he tried every means to please him. He even ransacked the warehouse twice and took out many good things and gave them to the emperor.
Lin Zhixiu ate red dates and saw that Li Cheng was going to the warehouse again. She shook her head helplessly, "Don't bother the emperor. In my opinion, the child will have to be born anyway! The emperor may give birth to the concubine."
The seat is a reward!"
"I don't want to wait until that time..." Li Cheng muttered unhappily.
"But what's the use of your gift? The warehouse is almost empty! If you don't have anything to give to your son in the future, don't blame him for not being filial to you!" Lin Zhixiu laughed.
Li Cheng shook his head and refused to listen, "What are you talking about? Do you have to give your son something for him to be filial to me? I am his father! His father has a lot of things, and I can't give them all away! Besides, it can still be done
Let’s make more money!” So he walked out the door again and rushed into the warehouse.
Dongyun came in and said: "Mr. Wu is really obedient to the prince. He has been guarding the door of the warehouse for a long time... He will move whatever the prince points to! These two people!"
Lin Zhixiu hummed: "His father is very greedy! He is soft-hearted when receiving gifts, but his heart is not soft at all!"
Alas, there is no way, that is a matter between father and son.
"Hey, speaking of which, how is that Feng Yanran that Ling Chan talked about last time?"
After the incident about the false widow was over, Lin Zhixiu had a gathering and told her little sisters about it. She asked everyone to look at it and help them look for something suitable.
A few days later, Lingchan told me about a distant relative from her husband's hometown. When she told her, she was a beautiful woman with a rough life experience. She was in her early twenties and had two children.
The woman was an orphan. After her husband died, she was bullied by her husband's family and even had bad thoughts because of her beauty. Lingchan's mother-in-law was the woman's distant aunt and asked someone to write a letter to complain.
Picked her up.
"That woman lives in the Zheng family's village. If you want to see her anytime, Mrs. Zheng said she would bring someone with her."
"It's better to wait until I feel more at ease! There's no rush!"
——It was very late that night, and Li Chengcai came back with excitement on his face, "Axiu, my second brother and Uncle An Wang are back today!"
Lin Zhixiu quickly asked: "How is it?"
"Everything went well, except that Sixth Brother was injured. Oh, it was Uncle An Wang and Second Brother who saved him. Oh... you don't know, Second Brother, he really stole the show today! Oh my god, I can't think of anything else.
, he still has such a side! Really, I was dumbfounded... tsk tsk!"
It turned out that when a group of people came back, they went straight into the palace to meet the Holy Emperor. First, King An said that he and his group had successfully completed the task assigned by the emperor, and then stood aside and said nothing.
Then, King Jin Li Xu stepped forward and stood up, "Your Majesty..."
Next, he stood in the court hall, eloquently recounting the trip.
The entire disaster relief process, from the ordinary outing of Beijing to the thrilling journey later, was really ups and downs... After several dangers and averting dangers, it was like a storyteller. The courtiers present could not help but exclaim as the plot progressed.
.
All in all, this disaster relief mission was successfully completed despite many accidents.
Although there were only partial conclusions and clues, without too many directions, Li Lan was sweating all over the scene. His usually calm expression was also a bit ugly.
This wave of operations can be described as more losses than gains! What I hope most now is that there are no clues implicating myself...
The emperor listened to Li Xu's explanation, looked at his "arrogant" expression, and looked at the things in his hands. He felt extremely resentful in his heart, and his mind was working rapidly. It was not in vain. He immediately discovered several weak points...
After Li Xu spoke eloquently for a long time and came to an end, he immediately picked these out and questioned them, with an expression that was obviously filled with anger...
This was Li Xuliu's foreshadowing. He knew that the emperor would not easily recognize his achievements. If you have any questions, I will add them if I have answers.
The emperor completely understood and realized Li Xu's intention...
He was very surprised to see this son whom he hated deeply, and saw several important ministers nodding their heads in appreciation, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
So he fell back into the same old routine and began to blame Li Qing's injuries on his lack of timely rescue.
But this time, Li Xu did not bow his head and admit his mistake like the last time when the emperor accused him of not taking good care of Li Cheng when he came back from autumn hunting.
Instead, he described the degree of danger at that time very wonderfully, and how he risked his life to save Li Qing. He also provided several possible clues and asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate the matter...
Li Qing was injured and sat aside, feeling secretly resentful!
Let King Jin describe it as if he is incompetent! But it is obvious that he has been favored by others, and he really can't find any reasonable words to refute.
Therefore, he could only confirm that his second brother had rescued him and asked the emperor to investigate.
Li Cheng was still talking to Lin Zhixiu: "I never thought that my second brother would be so proud! How can he speak so well? He stood there talking for almost two hours without writing. Oh my god, everyone else was interrupting.
Don't say anything! That demeanor is really amazing! Everyone was shocked! Think about it, I didn't expect him to be so capable, let alone others! I couldn't help but sigh! I looked at it, and my father's face was filled with tears.
A little green, hehehehe."
"Humph! There's something wrong with your father! That's his own son! He's not the son of an enemy!"
Li Cheng didn't want Lin Zhixiu to talk about his father, "Hey!" He poked Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu glared at him and continued: "Am I wrong? Isn't the second brother his biological son? If you really don't like it, give him a piece of land, a poorer one, a smaller one, and get rid of the problem early! He doesn't,
He doesn’t want to find faults so that he can deal with them. If he is a little better, he can’t stand it... What do you think? Isn’t it wrong for my son to have abilities? Humph, if you dare to do this to my son in the future, look at how I will deal with you! "
"Look at what you said, how could I do this to my son?" Li Cheng was dissatisfied.
"The same blood! Who can say for sure!" Lin Zhixiu rolled her eyes.
"I don't know how! Hey, Ah Xiu, I feel like the second brother is going to be different this time! He... doesn't give in!"
"If you don't admit it, don't admit it! It should have been like this a long time ago! I think it would be great for your second brother to be the prince."
"Yeah! I think so too!"
——
Over there, the emperor sent everyone away and left King An behind.
He felt that the scene just now was very unreal. It was as if he had just met his son today!
Really, after seeing each other for three days, you have to look at each other with new eyes...
Unexpectedly, under his own suppression, punishment, and neglect, he would actually... Thinking of his biological mother, the emperor couldn't help but feel angry again...
That woman who looks ordinary but is sharp and pretentious!
Her existence will always remind him of the various reluctances he has experienced. Although Li Xu is not like her...but it will remind him of her...
The emperor was silent...
An Wang sat aside, but he was worried in his heart. He missed his wife and son after being out for so long!
After coming back and tossing around in the court for a long time, it wasn't enough... I had to keep him! He was unhappy and his face didn't look good.
The emperor began to complain: "I told you, just go and bring Li Cheng back! Li Qing has already been arranged for things over there, why are you disobedient?!"
King An endured his anger: "When I arrived, they had already taken back the money and food! Li Qing was walking slowly with the supplies and did not arrive. The deputy Li Xu brought also committed suicide. I want to take Li Qing directly.
When Xu and Li Cheng come back, what will happen to the food and money? Will there be no relief?"
"..." The emperor was even more unhappy when he was criticized!
King An didn't wait for him to speak, and said directly: "Brother, you have to investigate this matter carefully! If Li Qing hadn't led someone to rescue him this time, he might have been handed over there!
At this moment, both princes almost got into trouble! You don’t understand what this is for!”
The Emperor "..." The competition for the position of Crown Prince has become clearer... After being silent for a while, he asked again: "What do you think?"
"Brother, the princes are getting older, and they all have their own things to do. Gradually, they have ideas about the crown prince position. This is nothing! Under the imperial power, it is normal for there to be no sincerity and no kindness. Between each other.
If you fight against each other and use some tricks, even if you see blood, it won't be a big deal. You must have such a cruel person to be able to secure this country..."
This... is indeed what happened. Before the emperor ascended the throne, these people had many experiences. Which emperor has no blood under his throne?
But when King An said it so plainly, the emperor was also very surprised and looked at his younger brother with his mouth half open.
King An looked solemn, "This time, tens of thousands of people were affected by the disaster. If we don't provide disaster relief quickly and appease the people, how will we deal with the chaos once it breaks out? If the west and north are involved, it will cause instability in the country. Even if we start after the disaster relief is completed, it will be
It’s much better than not being able to get enough food and silver! The method used to do this is really stupid and inferior, it’s so disappointing!”
The emperor's face was gloomy and he said nothing.
