Although it is the time of the Chinese New Year, the Hu people are still very lively in the restaurant, many high-nosed, deep-eyed and bearded Hu people are talking and laughing loudly, and even going to dance with those charming orchids when they are in the mood. Li Hui had never seen such a scene, and couldn't help but cast his eyes again.

The prince raised his eyes and saw that Cao Shilang had already hurried over with a food box, and smiled slightly: "The vegetarian dish has been bought, is it suitable for taste?" There is a famous restaurant nearby that specializes in vegetarian food, so we can try it another day. ”

He hurriedly put the dishes in the food box in front of Li Hui, and had to personally distribute the dishes for him. Cao Shilang, who was sitting next to him, jumped his eyelids, and said secretly in his heart: Why do you think that your own Langjun is becoming more and more gentle and considerate to the little county king? It doesn't look like a close friend, but more like a personal servant......

However, not only was Li Hui extremely calm, but the prince's demeanor was still elegant - after all, in his past and present lives, the little prince had never had any friends of life and death, and all he had heard were legendary stories, and the best friends there could even entrust each other with their lives, all their possessions, and their families, not to mention these small things?

As for Wang Langjun, he just wants to be good to this person wholeheartedly, and he can do it to the extreme. There is only one person in this world who can make him so careful. Even Mr. Song, who is a gentleman, has a slightly inferior status in his heart. After all, different times of acquaintance will have different fates, and you can't force them. As for whether there is a deeper reason for this, he is not willing to think about it for the time being, and he does not dare to think about it.

"Very good." Li Hui tasted it slightly, and said, "If Zixian doesn't mind, you can also try it?" There are a few things that are particularly flavorful. "Nowadays, everyone generally eats separately, and there is no habit of eating together. In other words, eating together seems to be against etiquette. But in the legends he had seen, among the ranger people he had witnessed, of course the friends of life and death would not care about such a subsection. Moreover, eating and drinking together seems to be more enjoyable.

The prince was slightly stunned, hooked the corners of his mouth, and held up a few vegetarian dishes recommended to him: "It is indeed very good......

Cao Shilang shook his head secretly, and decided not to expose it - his own Langjun didn't know how many times he had been to that restaurant, and he had never shown any preferences, how could he suddenly boast about these dishes? If it weren't for the little king who liked it, he wouldn't say he liked it! Alas, he, who is in charge, can't tell for a while which of these two is better for whom. As long as they know it in their hearts, it is enough for him to simply treat it as if he had never seen anything, and it is useless to think too much!

The two of them enjoyed a delicious meal, and soon saw a slender young man ascend to the second floor. He seemed to be looking for an empty seat, but found it full, and frowned. After looking around, he seemed to have discovered something, suddenly showed a look of surprise, walked over quickly, and saluted the prince: "Isn't this Wang Langjun?" Last time we met in the literary meeting, do you remember so? ”

"Sun Xiaolang, please sit down." The prince bowed slightly.

Li Hui looked at this polite young man, although he knew that this was played by Sun Jinniang, but he had to sigh that she was really dressed vividly. After her cousin puts on a man's clothes, even if she gestures no matter how atmospheric, she will reveal some of the coquettishness of a little lady. However, this Sun Jinniang is completely different, that is, people who are familiar with her, I am afraid they only think that they are just Xiao Langjun who was born a little similar, and they will not think that she will be a little lady at all.

Since the excuse was that he met at the Wenhui, Wang Zixian casually said something about the Wenhui. Sun Jinniang's answer was fluent, and there was no omission. Then, as a matter of course, they sat down together. Although the Hu people restaurant also shares the food, it uses a large dining table where everyone sits, and as long as the guests are willing, it is okay to sit seven or eight people. For the sake of conversation, the three of them sat closer together, and they looked very ordinary.

In the midst of the laughter and noise around her, Sun Jinniang looked at Li Hui and said softly: "The slave has seen the king." At this time, it is inconvenient to salute the king, and please forgive the king. The king previously dispatched his troops to check the king of Jibei County, and the brother and the slave both knew, and today Ah Lang called the slave over, but for this matter? Her voice was almost drowned out in the bustle, and she couldn't hear it clearly if she didn't listen closely.

Li Hui shook his head and smiled: "Sun Xiaolang doesn't have to be rigid in etiquette. Actually, I just want to know how close Li Ge and Li Qianniang are - maybe you haven't paid close attention to the relationship between the two of them before, and only stared at Li Qianniang and Princess Anxing. However, we will have to inquire more about it in the future. ”

His words were meaningful, and Sun Jinniang blinked: "Slave understands." The slave had now befriended a maid by her side, and in time she might be able to find out the exact news. No matter what she wants to do, she can't hide it from the people around her. Now there are many people in the Xu family who hate her, and with just a little hint or two, someone will take the initiative to keep an eye on her. ”

"Don't make a big deal about it." The prince said, "Act wisely, lest you show your clues." You can knock on the side and find clues. But if it is to obtain evidence, it is necessary to rely on external parts. Li Qianniang has always been a little cautious, so she must be cautious, so she will start with Your Excellency Li. He's just a spoiled clan king, and it's easy to show his tracks. ”

"Slave saved." Sun Jinniang agreed.

Wang Zixian asked again: "I haven't asked you carefully how you are doing in the Xu family for some days. ”

"Brother's place is very smooth. The affairs of the Xu family were originally handed over to Xu Tian's brother-in-law, and they took care of it well, and they also benefited a lot. After the elder brother gradually revealed it to Xu Tian, he was naturally dissatisfied, so he had the intention of snatching. Because he failed to succeed in provincial examinations, the Xu family also had the intention to let him loosen, so they simply gave him a few shops to operate. With the help of his brother, the profits from those shops now exceed the income of his brother-in-law's business, and the Xu family is very pleased. ”

With Xu Tian's trust, Brother sent him a few beauties from time to time. At first, it was only sent to the servants, but later the slaves and maids and the outer house were sent. Xu Tian and the county lord of Yichuan were not close to each other, and with these beauties provoking them, they became more and more alienated. However, the merits of these beauties are also limited, and in the final analysis, the county lord of Yichuan looks down on him, and is even more unwilling to seek any benefits for him and the Xu family. ”

"This county lord would rather participate in all kinds of banquets and go out with the children of the clan to play naughtily, rather than stay in the Xu family. She goes out early and returns late all day long, never settles the province in the morning and dusk, and in the name of filial piety, she lives in a separate room with Xu Khotan, and the Xu family does not dare to say anything. But the elders of the Xu family felt sorry for Xu Tian, the eldest son, so the housemother secretly placed several rooms for him, and the whole family hid it from the county lord of Yichuan. Two days ago, I deliberately tried to get the news out of her, and she was furious. In a fit of rage, he beat and scolded those who had a room, and later sold them out. ”

Li Hui didn't know how to evaluate the inner house method of "......", "She is pitiful outside, but her true nature is revealed at home." Actually, he wanted to say that it would be fairer if they had fun separately like Princess Anxing and Cheng Qing. But she has a personal relationship with Li Ge, and she is not close to Xu Khotan, but she still does not allow Xu Khotan to pet her, which is too domineering.

"In this way, the Xu family has long had a gap with her, and these contradictions will only intensify in the future?" The prince narrowed his eyes, "Then you might as well make them strangers, or like enemies of life and death." "It is inconvenient to disclose the matter between Li Qianniang and Li Ge, and even if Xu Khotan knows, it is impossible to rashly make it public. After all, the Xu family is small, how dare they offend the royal clan? However, as long as he has resentment in his heart, it is naturally impossible to refuse to take revenge in another way.

"Both the slave and the elder brother know how to behave, Ah Lang can rest assured." Sun Jinniang said, "Before, the slave went to Princess Anxing's mansion once with the daughter of the Xu family, and she didn't find anything unusual for the time being. Princess Anxing treats the county lord of Yichuan with a pleasant face, and looking at their expressions, there seems to be some strange tacit understanding...... By the way, at that time, they talked alone for a while, and they didn't know what they were discussing, and they all laughed very happily. ”

Li Hui pondered for a moment: "Nearly half a year has passed since Princess Anxing instructed Li Qianniang, and they should not be able to bear it. I don't know what to do this time, and I must not let my grandfather know. His old man's body has long been ...... I can't stand this kind of thing. ”

He had heard his mother Yan say that Princess Anxing's favor was second only to Princess Qinghe, so he developed such a temperament today. After King Huai died of illness, the saint felt sorry for Concubine Yang De, and he did almost everything to Princess Anxing. If my grandfather knew that she had done so many things and had done so much to her brother over and over again, he would have been very sad......

"Don't worry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be negligent." The prince said, "The only thing to worry about is that the King of Chu has left Beijing, and the most likely thing for Princess Anxing to deal with next is the King of Yue and the King of Pu." "The position of the prince of the East Palace is very stable, and Princess Anxing should not want to attack the prince directly. framing King Yue and King Pu, and secretly releasing news to harm the reputation of the crown prince is in line with what she has always done.

"I'll definitely watch Grandpa." Li Hui sighed lightly, "The recent 'auspicious' incident is the handiwork of Princess Anxing, and it must be carefully investigated." Moreover, this matter should also affect the father of King Yue and the uncle of the crown prince. I only hope that it can arouse their vigilance and not teach Princess Anxing to succeed. ”

The two of them looked at each other, and they really couldn't understand why Princess Anxing couldn't think about it so much and wanted to offend all her brothers. Could it be that it is for the Yang family? For the children of Yang Liangdi in the East Palace? Whoever sits on the throne, isn't she always a princess? What is the benefit of being promoted from the eldest princess to the eldest princess? Isn't it better to have a younger brother sitting on the throne than a nephew? Does she care so much about her mother's family in her heart? Or, did she act like this, did she mean Concubine Yang De?

In any case, this matter must be inseparable from the Yang family. The heart of the Yang family is really getting bigger and bigger.

Li Hui's expression was slightly gloomy, and he frowned and said, "Zixian, what are the flaws in Yang's head?" I thought it was time to put some people in the Yang family. I always feel that they ...... Something is very wrong. "Of course, a relative like Uncle Guo is indeed very beautiful, and it will also bring enough benefits. But a big family like Hongnong Yang's is now full of glory and wealth, and it will not be so hard to secretly work so hard for such a scenery.

He really didn't want to think about it again - the last time he participated in Mr. Zhou Jiyan's literary meeting, he felt a little strange - could it be that the group of Hongnong Yang really intended to emulate the old things of the previous dynasty? Want to take the throne from your grandson again? They can't be so stupid? Do you think Uncle Crown Prince will be so mediocre? Or did he just underestimate the importance of "scenery" to these top gate lords? Or maybe they just want to defeat the Jingzhao Du clan, who is also famous?

"At present, Zimu is here, and I will have some people by his side." Wang Ziling said, "The Yang family is no better than the Xu family, so you must be careful every step of the way." "Approaching the Yang family and inquiring about the Yang family's affairs is too difficult for them at present. Similarly, it is impossible to enter Princess Anxing's Mansion.

For them, the immediate priority is still to expand their power and secretly nurture more people who can be used. In this way, you will not always fall into passivity and be repeatedly calculated.
