Waiting is undoubtedly an unbearable torment, at least for Li Zhen who is now eager to return to Beijing to participate in the peach distribution. This chapter has been handed in long ago, and the luggage has been packed long ago, and she is just waiting for the old man's approval.
Li Zhen immediately planned to go straight to the capital, but unexpectedly, after waiting for several days, there was still no confirmation. This made Li Zhen feel like sitting on pins and needles. She wished she could ride a snow dragon horse out of the city and indulge herself, so as to relieve her depression.
However, the "recuperating" hat on his head was hindering his ability to move. Not only could he not move, he had to lie on the bed and continue to pretend to be sick. How could he be so uncomfortable? He held it in for several days.
Afterwards, Li Zhen, who was bored and depressed, had to pretend that her health had improved slightly, forced her "sick body" to get out of bed, wandered in the back garden for a while, and played a few games of Go with Na Long to relieve her boredom.
Li Zhen was troubled, so she struck particularly ruthlessly. His chess skills were much higher than Nalong's. Naturally, this ruthlessness caused Nalong to lose his armor and become embarrassed. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted Li Zhen to vent his anger.
, I am afraid that Nalong would have gone away with oil on his feet, but at this moment he was entangled by Li Zhen, unable to move, and lost miserably. Nalong, who always pays attention to his behavior, secretly complained, and the marks on his forehead were stunned.
The sweat never stopped.
"Your Highness, the imperial edict has arrived." Just as Nalong was in agony, Yan Shiba hurriedly approached and reported loudly.
Seeing the "rescue" arriving, Naron laughed quickly, stretched out his hand to mess up the chessboard, and said with a smile: "The imperial edict has arrived, and it's time for His Highness to receive it."
Ha, this damn old Nalong started playing this trick when he was about to lose. When Li Zhen heard that the imperial edict had arrived, she was overjoyed, but she was too lazy to care about Nalong's deceitful behavior. She smiled, stood up, and waved her hand to indicate
Several personal guards around him came up to support him and did not change his clothes. He just stumbled out of the back garden and rushed to the gate of Meiyuan to receive the order.
The eunuch who came to convey the order was a young eunuch. He looked like he was wearing a seventh-grade eunuch, but his face was tight. At first glance, he looked like he had just been promoted. When he saw Li Zhen’s face, he didn’t know.
After exchanging pleasantries, the imperial edict was quickly launched, so that Li Zhen had to hold on to her "sick body" and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.
"The Holy Emperor has an edict saying: King Li Zhen of Yue has worked hard for the country... and he is allowed to return to Beijing to recuperate. In addition, King Li Zhen of Yue and King Li Min of Shu will return to Beijing to report on their duties. I appreciate this!" The little eunuch's voice was loud, but
But there was a trace of nervousness, and he read very fast, but in general he expressed his intention clearly.
"My lord, thank you for your kindness." Li Zhen kowtowed meticulously, then managed to stand up, reached out to receive the imperial edict, and at the same time, she did not forget to quietly stuff the "red envelope" she had prepared long ago into the little eunuch's hand.
In his hand, he said very politely: "Thank you, father-in-law. May I ask what you call me?"
The little eunuch was obviously just a young boy. He was already very nervous when he went out to announce an edict. But when he received the "thick" red envelope, his face immediately showed a hint of panic, and he stuttered back: "Your Highness, you're welcome.
My maid, my surname is Hu, I have only one name, Song. I am from Luoyang, so everyone calls me my maid Xiao Songzi..."
Yes, this person was really overly nervous. Li Zhen only said a polite word, but this person was so good that he almost poured out the entire family tree. Although Li Zhen listened with a smile, there was something in his heart. Without him,
According to the young eunuch who called himself Hu Song, there were a lot of changes in the palace this time. A large number of eunuchs in the palace were replaced. All the old and capable eunuchs were sent to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to retire.
, even Gao Yao, the chamberlain supervisor, was not immune. Now the newly replaced chamberlain supervisor is named Hu Youde, and he has some unclear relatives with Hu Song, who came to deliver the order. This is how Hu Song came to the fore.
day.
Damn it, what kind of person is the old man planning to do? Hu Youde? Hmm, this name sounds so familiar, ah, by the way, it’s him! Li Zhen thought for a while, and then she remembered who the chamberlain supervisor named Hu Youde was, and in her heart
He was immediately surprised, but he didn't express anything special. After listening to Hu Song's words with a smile, he smiled calmly and said: "My father-in-law, you have worked hard for coming from afar. Please go inside and have a rest. Have a few drinks to relieve your fatigue first. Xiao Wang
I'm injured but can't drink alcohol, so how about drinking tea?"
Everyone in the capital knows that Li Zhen is famous for her generosity. Although Hu Song was promoted just now, he has heard a lot about Li Zhen's generosity. Now seeing Li Zhen being polite, he was even more surprised.
He was very touched and replied politely: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I have also received the decree from Prince Shu's palace, so I won't disturb Your Highness's recovery."
Li Zhen wanted to have a good chat with this little eunuch and hear more details about the changes in the palace, but she was not willing to let Hu Song go. However, seeing that Hu Song still had something to do, she smiled and said:
"Forget it, father-in-law, let's go and do some work first. We'll get back to work later. How about we meet at the little king's place later?"
Seeing Li Zhen being so polite, Hu Song felt grateful. He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "It is better to obey orders than to be respectful. I will definitely come to chat with Your Highness." After saying this, he looked around and mysteriously got close to Li Zhen's face.
He came closer and said softly: "Your Highness, the road is not peaceful now. Your Highness should be more careful." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhen didn't give him a chance to ask. He bowed with a smile, turned around and mounted his horse, leading Zi Yu all the way.
Lin's officers and soldiers turned around and hurried away to Prince Shu's Mansion.
Huh? It's not peaceful? What are you talking about? Damn it, what on earth is this guy talking about? Li Zhen was stunned for a while, but she couldn't figure out what Hu Song's last sentence meant, until Hu Song
Song was far away, and then he turned around and entered the door full of doubts. However, he did not see the fleeting look in the eyes of the deputy envoy Hou Guoxiao who was not far away and accompanied him to receive the order.
"'Xuri' failed in its duty! Such important information was not reported in advance, damn it!" Li Zhen, who returned to the study, faced Nalong and Yan Shiba and recounted the news he had received from Hu Song.
After that, he put down a harsh word with bitterness. It was no wonder that Li Zhen was so angry - Li Zhen had spent a lot of money on "Rising Sun", and the annual activity funds alone amounted to 100,000 yuan, which was enough to
It is equivalent to the total income of two or three Shangzhous in a year, but what is the result? First there is the betrayal of Tie Er and Tie Si, and then there is now the blindness and ignorance of the changes in the palace. How can this not make people sad?
Li Zhen was angry and angry.
Yan Shiba and Na Long were the two presidents of "Xu Ri" successively. Naturally, they had unshirkable responsibility for "Xu Ri"'s dereliction of duty. Seeing Li Zhen angry at this time, they did not dare to defend themselves. Their faces were filled with confusion.
He was very embarrassed. After being silent for a long time, Nalong said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, please calm down. The matter has come to an end. I dare not shirk responsibility. I will return to Beijing to discuss the rectification matter. But now something has happened, which means
But we must take precautions.”
Li Zhen was angry because "Xu Ri" had neglected his duties, but he would not vent his anger on Nalong. After all, Na Long had only taken over "Xu Ri" for two months, and he had been busy with Li Zhen all the time. How could he have the time to rectify the situation?
"Rising Sun", this crime should not be borne by Nalong, but Yan Shiba is more responsible. Seeing Nalong apologize at this time, Li Zhen couldn't help but look at her face with hatred.
Yan Shiba glanced at him with an embarrassed look, waved his hand and said: "That's all, the matter is over, and I don't want to mention it again. However, after returning to Beijing, the 'Rising Sun' must be reorganized, and this is indispensable.
How it will work specifically will be decided after returning to the capital. Well, the emperor suddenly changed the eunuchs in the palace on a large scale. It seems that he is planning to take action. This is not a problem. The emperor has already set up the plan, so he should take action early.
There is nothing to say about the late action, except that Hu Youde was originally the head of Chengqing Hall, and he lived in Chengqing Hall when the fourth boy was still in the palace. If Hu Youde came up, he was obviously a
It’s an obvious sign that my father was too eager to establish the fourth child.”
Li Shimin wanted to make Li Tai the crown prince. Naturally, Nalong had known this for a long time. What he knew even more clearly was that although Li Zhen never said it, in fact, she had not given up completely yet and still had the idea of reaching the sky in one step. It was worth it
At this juncture, Nalong, as a counselor, naturally could not sit back and watch Li Zhen make mistakes, so he quickly said with a solemn face: "Your Highness clearly knows that although the Holy One has the intention to establish the King of Wei, it will definitely not be possible. Even Your Highness will never have such a possibility.
The current plan is to ensure that King Jin enters the East Palace to ensure His Highness’s future plans. Could it be that Your Highness has forgotten this matter?”
Trying to defeat the two legitimate sons of Li Chengqian and Li Tai first, letting the incompetent Li Zhi enter the East Palace, and then trying to destroy Li Zhi was Li Zhen's already determined strategy. At this time, Nalong's old matter was just brought up again.
In order to remind Li Zhen not to fantasize about reaching the sky in one step, although he didn't say it clearly, there was a hint of blame in the truth. However, Li Zhen was not angry, but was a little embarrassed that his innermost secret was revealed, but what Nalong said
It was all the truth. Li Zhen was naturally embarrassed but blamed Nalong. He laughed at himself, shrugged and said: "Haha, what Mr. said is true. How could I forget? Hehe, by the way, that Hu Song
What’s the point of saying that the road is not peaceful?”
Li Zhen said she hadn't forgotten, but she still didn't give up. Although Nalong knew it, he didn't point it out. After all, as a counselor, he couldn't accuse Li Zhen of going too far. At this time, he heard Li Zhen mention Hu Song.
After thinking about it, he thought for a while and said: "It's not peaceful all the way back to the capital. The root cause does not necessarily lie with the prince, but with the assassin who was captured alive. If someone's guess is correct, this Hu Song should be the king of Wei."
Man, these words should be entrusted by the King of Wei."
He Gan Chengji? Yes, it should be this boy. Hey, the boss must be planning to silence him. Damn it, the Fourth Brother sent someone to send a message, but it’s not necessarily out of good intentions. He wants He Gan Chengji’s heart.
I'm afraid it's even worse than the boss. Hey, he wants to steal someone from me, just wait and see. Li Zhen's heart moved, and she already understood Nalong's meaning. She smiled and said: "I know what I'm doing, so I'll give you the order."
Go down, get up early tomorrow morning, and rush back to the capital!" dd
