76.076: Dark Tide (9)
Regarding family affairs, Li Jingye really has nothing to hide, he just thinks ...... It's not time yet.
The age is indeed the time, and the grandmother and uncle at home think that he should start a family, but he is not in the mood yet. He felt that he was not ready to marry a wife and return to the English Mansion. He is no longer the young man who has achieved nothing in the past, he followed Liu Zuoxiang to crusade against Silla, and made military achievements, he dare not say that he has a successful career, but he can straighten his waist, and he doesn't have to ask others about his own affairs.
Li Jingye thought that now that the border is unstable, the Tibetan Turks are like cockroaches that cannot be killed, eyeing the Tang Dynasty. He was promoted by the saint, and he had to do something for Datang in order to be worthy of the saint's support. Since he didn't plan to stay in Chang'an for a long time, what would he do if he married a lady and went back to the British Mansion?
When ornamental?
If this ornament is to keep to himself, it is fine, if he is not willing to be lonely, maybe the British government will be tossed and jumped.
Now that her younger sister Li Yanxi is young, she also has Princess Yongchang to take care of her, and she doesn't need multiple eldest sisters-in-law in the British mansion.
All in all, Li Jingye feels that he doesn't want to start a family now.
Li Chen didn't know what Li Jingye was thinking, but vaguely felt that maybe Li Jingye had been reluctant to start a family and had something to do with his sister Li Yanxi. It is probably because the brother and sister have depended on each other since childhood, so Li Jingye hurts Li Yanxi to the bone, and it may be that he is worried that the relationship between the British government and the concubine will not be easy to handle in the future.
Li Chen thought about it, Li Yanxi was one year younger than her, about three or ten years, and Li Yanxi was also married.
Li Jingye probably wants to wait for his sister to leave the cabinet, and then he will marry a lady and go back to the British mansion to put it?
Li Chen sweated silently, looked at Li Xian with a smile, and asked, "Second brother, do you plan to let General Li teach Guangshun to shoot and ride?" ”
Li Xian said with a smile: "If you are dedicated and willing, you naturally have this plan." ”
Li Jingye hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, I see that Xiao Langjun is smart and clever, if there is a famous teacher to teach, he will definitely succeed, and a certain talent is shallow in learning, I am afraid that he will not be able to take on this heavy responsibility." ”
Since the sudden death of the former prince, Li Jingye's interactions with Li Xian have gradually increased, but his interactions with Li Xian are by no means just to be a shooting teacher in the prince's East Palace. Therefore, when he heard Li Xian's joking words, he hurriedly expressed his intentions.
Li Xian raised his eyebrows, "Don't be presumptuous in your dedication, who doesn't know that you are good at shooting and riding since you were a child, which my father also appreciates very much." ”
Li Jingye smiled bitterly: "I don't dare to be arrogant, but I haven't forgotten that I am a defeated general in the hands of His Highness." ”
When Li Xian heard this, he laughed. Recently, everything has not gone well for him, and there are rumors in the harem that he was not born to his mother, and at this time Li Jingye came to discuss the frontier with him, Li Xian was very happy in his heart. His relationship with his mother became increasingly tense, and many ministers in the court were afraid of his mother and would not have too close relations with him, but at this time, Li Jingye did not shy away from suspicion, which showed that this young general was standing in his country.
Li Xian said that letting Li Jingye be Li Guangshun's shooting teacher was just a joke. Li Guangshun's biological mother is not from a high background, and Li Xian is limited even if he cares about this eldest son, not to mention that the children of the royal family have always studied in Chongxian Pavilion, and there are special people in charge.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Li Xian has been unhappy for a while, and now it is rare to be in a good mood, so he is interested.
Li Xian looked at Li Chen and said with a smile: "Yongchang, today is a rare leisure, why don't you sit with the second brother and dedication for a while, I got a good set of tea sets a few days ago, but unfortunately no one in the East Palace is as proficient in the art of making tea as you, I really want to find a time to send it to you, since you and Taiping are here, I will be wronged by you in the East Palace to make a pot of good tea for your brother, how about it?" ”
After a pause, Li Xian said again: "By the way, Xue Shao will come later, and he told me that we will play chess together today." ”
Li Chen blinked and looked at Taiping on the side, only to see that Taiping heard that Xue Shao was coming, and his good-looking eyes lit up instantly.
She smiled slightly, and nodded to Li Xian, "Okay." ”
Rather than tangling up with many things, it is better to go with the flow.
"Princess, recently, the people in the palace have been discussing what Ming Chongyan said when he entered the palace to meet Her Royal Highness the Empress." Shu Zhi stood quietly behind Li Chen and reported to Li Chen what had happened in the palace in the last two days.
Since Li Chen looked at the character relationship chart presented by Shu Zhi, she adjusted the people in Fengyang Pavilion, she did not clear out those palace maids who had a good relationship with Qingning Palace on the surface, but often brought those people with her. Every time Shu Zhi came to report something, Li Chen didn't shy away from suspicion, but she could always find a suitable place just to let their movements fall in the eyes of those people, but those people couldn't hear what they were saying.
For example, at this moment, Li Chen was playing in the lake of Taiji Palace, it was Shu Ye who was swaying, Shu Zhi was waiting next to him, and the rest of the people were waiting by the lake.
Everyone knows that Princess Yongchang has not liked too many people around her since she was a child, so whatever she wants to do, she will only let the people below prepare what they need, and only bring one or two people around.
Now Li Chen is boating with twin brothers and sisters, one is good at water and martial arts, and Shu Zhi was waiting by Li Chen's side when Shangguan Wan'er had not yet gone to Qingning Palace. After Shangguan Wan'er became a talented person and went to Wu Zetian's side, it was not uncommon for Shu Zhi to become a celebrity next to Li Chen.
Ming Chongyan is a person Li Chen has seen, and he looks personable. His father's official went to Yuzhou to assassinate the history, Ming Chongyan followed his father around when he was young, and once learned spells from the officials under his father, and he was even famous. Speaking of which Ming Chongyan is also wonderful, he likes to study what spells and witchcraft are these strange things, the ancients were superstitious, and they are deeply sucked in these spells and physiognomy, Ming Chongyan delved into these things, and he can even mix up the fame. And Ming Chongyan has more advantages than ordinary warlocks, that is, he knows how to heal.
A warlock who knows how to heal once accidentally cured a seriously ill daughter with a history of thorns with a home remedies, so he became famous. Later, when his father Li Zhi heard about this, he summoned Ming Chongyan, and felt that this person had learned a lot, as if he had some real material, and later Ming Chongyan helped his father to treat wind disease, and it really improved, and his father was convinced of Ming Chongyan's ability.
Since then, Ming Chongyan's career has been smooth sailing, and now he is the position of a doctor.
Li Chen didn't believe much in spells and physiognomy, and felt that people who did this kind of thing were gods. In her opinion, maybe Ming Chongyan's medical skills are a bit genuine, but he is just a god stick who can do some medical skills.
Li Chen has never had a good impression of the god stick.
Even though Ming Chongyan has always been deeply loved by his father and mother, Li Chen still has no good impression of him, especially since this magic stick has been sowing discord in front of his father and mother in the past three days, Li Chen is eager for this magic stick to fall to the sky and be unconscious as soon as he leaves Qingning Palace.
Therefore, when Li Chen heard Shu Zhi say that the people in the palace were discussing what Ming Chongyan said to his mother, he frowned, feeling that this time Ming Chongyan was going to be a moth again.
Li Chen looked at the lake glowing with silver light and asked, "What did Ming Chongyan say to my mother this time?" ”
Shu Zhi: "When Dr. Ming and Her Royal Highness the Queen were talking about things, when talking about the crown prince and the two princes, Dr. Ming said that the prince was unbearable to inherit, and the British king looked like Taizong, and the king was the most expensive. ”
Li Chen sneered when he heard this.
Ming Chongyan was a warlock who was said to be proficient in witchcraft, physiognomy, and healing. Generally, when this kind of person gets the favor of the emperor, he will gain an inch and comment on the people around the emperor, and the emperor will not blame them whether he goes to his heart or not. Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, these warlocks have a special status, and they can enter and leave the palace without restrictions.
Ming Chong is like a god of death, and it is clear that he is the person on his mother's side, of course, he is speaking according to his mother's wishes, except for the fact that the prince Li Xian is easy to keep people talking in his private life, all other aspects are commendable, and recently Li Xian's private life has also converged a lot, there is really nothing to find fault with, and her mother is not suitable to come forward to find fault with the prince, so it is naturally her subordinate ministers.
The crown prince is unbearable to inherit, the British king looks like Taizong, and the king is the most expensive.
It means that the crown prince Li Xian is not enough to be the prince of the Tang Dynasty, King Li Xian has the style of Taizong, and King Xiang looks the most noble, they are all more suitable than Li Xian, right?
Who doesn't know that King Li Xian has been an unsuccessful person since he was a child, and he knows how to fly eagles and lackeys, drink and have fun every day. If he wants to talk about the pros and cons of the world, it seems that he wants his life, and he is the best at other side doors, and a while ago, Li Chen also heard that his third brother, who is not a weapon, actually turned the back garden of the British Prince's Mansion into a market. He asked some of his servants to pretend to be peddlers, and some of them to pretend to be sellers, and let these people do business in the back garden to show him.
When Li Chen heard about this, he was also drunk.
As for the fourth brother, Li Chen didn't want to say anything, because Li Dan was an out-and-out literary teenager.
Shu Zhi looked at Li Chen who was standing on the bow of the boat in front of him, his usual face was paralyzed at this time, and he frowned slightly, and said to Li Chen: "My brother and I thought that it was Her Royal Highness the Queen who instructed Ming Chongyan to look at the crown prince and the two princes. ”
Li Chen looked at Shu Zhi, "How can you see it?" ”
"Ming Chongyan boasts that he can communicate with ghosts and gods, and often talks about current affairs through ghosts and gods, which is also very normal, if Ming Chongyan has no political ambitions, he will not enter the palace at every turn. But these words about the crown prince and the two princes have a very obvious orientation. If it is not in line with the wishes of Her Royal Highness the Queen, it is impossible to spread it. ”
Li Chen heard the words and did not speak. What Shu Zhi said was right, her mother probably wanted to use Ming Chongyan's words to shake her father's good impression of the second brother. Since Ming Chongyan cured his father's wind disease, his father's health has indeed improved, so he trusts and loves him very much.
The relationship between the mother and the second brother is becoming more and more tense, and in front of the father, it is much more useful for Ming Chongyan to make a fuss about the second brother than for the mother to directly pick the fault of the second brother.
