"Li Mo! King of Zhenbei! Someday, someday, when I inherit ......"

The second prince, Li Shichang, almost rushed out of his mouth with hatred.

"Your Highness!"

A voice stopped him, and it was Cui Qiuren, the second prince's mansion who had just walked in, who hurriedly saluted the second prince Li Shichang, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, it's not good, there is news from the palace that Niangniang's angina has been committed again." ”

Cui Qiuren said that the mother is naturally Li Shichang's biological mother, Concubine Xian.

When the second prince heard this, he was immediately anxious, and immediately asked someone to prepare a horse to enter the palace to see Concubine Xian, and thought that the fourth prince Li Shiqing and Gu Fei had just come, and they didn't say a few words, so they showed an embarrassed expression.

The fourth prince, Li Shiqing, hurriedly said: "Brother Huang, hurry up, when will we not be able to speak?" It doesn't have to be today. It's still the body of the virtuous concubine that matters. ”

Gu Fei also said: "That's it, Second Highness, hurry up!" ”

After the two finished speaking, they took their leave and left.

The second prince, Li Shichang, asked repeatedly: "Where is my horse?" Why haven't you brought it yet? He scolded angrily: "These useless minions, they can't do such a little thing, what use do you want them?" ”

scolded, and couldn't hold back to urge in person.

Cui Qiuren hurriedly grabbed him reads;.

"Your Highness, don't worry, although Niangniang is guilty of angina, the symptoms are not strict, and after taking medicine, she has already gotten better. Ask someone to send a message to the prince, saying that you don't have to go into the palace to see her today, she is also tired, and it would be better to go another day. ”

"That's right."

The second prince, Li Shichang, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then blamed Cui Qiuren and said, "In that case, why didn't you make it clear?" I was so nervous that I didn't say anything, now, the fourth emperor brother and Gu Feike are gone. We're talking about speculation! ”

Cui Qiuren said: "It is precisely because of them that I said so." Your Highness, when you meet people, you only say, don't throw away all your heart! Although His Royal Highness has a low status as his biological mother, it is said that the position of the crown prince has nothing to do with him, and at present, he does not see any signs of fighting for him, but, after all, compared to Your Royal Highness, he has been closer to the Third Highness in the past, who knows what he thinks in his heart? That Gu Fei, a few days ago, he was also invited by His Royal Highness to go to his mansion. Don't be careless! ”

"Really, you are the one who said that you want to win over, and you are the one who stops me. How can this concealment be accomplished? ”

The second prince Li Shichang was very disapproving: "Cui Zhanshi, I think you are too careful." Moreover, in terms of background, my mother is a virtuous concubine, who is highly valued by my father and the emperor, and helps the queen to take care of the harem, can the third brother's concubine be compared with her; In terms of the elder and young, I am the elder brother, and he is the younger brother; In terms of background, my uncle's family Chengping Houfu is hereditary, what does the third brother have? If it weren't for the fact that his father saw that Concubine De gave birth to a third brother and sealed the face of Yong'anhou, maybe he would still be a nine-rank sesame official who couldn't get on the stage! Who should this prince be, who is the clear-eyed person who doesn't have a number in his heart? Cui Zhanshi, tell me yourself, these days, how many dignitaries and dignitaries are showing favor to us openly and secretly? How can the fourth emperor brother and Gu Fei be an exception? ”

"Your Highness."

Cui Zhan is still to be talked about, but the second prince Li Shichang has no interest in continuing to listen to his ramblings. interrupted him and said, "Okay, I'll go to the palace for a while!" Since I just said it, it won't be good if you don't go. ”

At this time, the horses were also prepared, and the escort came, and the second prince got on his horse and went in a tornado.

Cui Zhanshi looked at the back of the second prince Li Shichang, and his eyes showed worry.

At present, it is indeed a great thing, His Royal Highness has a considerable advantage in the competition for the position of the crown prince, because of their background, there is no doubt that the nobles have a greater good impression of the second prince Li Shichang, and the ministers because of the rules of establishing a successor and a long man, that is, they prefer the gentle and elegant third prince in their hearts, and they are not good at supporting him in face, which violates the teachings of the saints. However, no matter how much he folded, the emperor did not let go. As long as the emperor does not let go for a day, this matter will not be settled. Even if it's decided, if you don't see the former prince, it's just a moment of carelessness, and you end up with chickens and eggs?

Before you get to that position, you have to be careful, careful!

And now the second prince Li Shichang seems to be getting more and more careless!

That's not a good thing.

If one misses and the battle for the storage position is lost, then it is not as simple as returning to the original position. A gust of wind blew, and Cui Zhanshi shivered.

Besides, after Gu Fei and the fourth prince Li Shiqing left the Second Prince's Mansion, Gu Fei was supposed to stay in the carriage of the Taishi Mansion, but the fourth prince Li Shiqing stopped him and invited him to ride in the same car. Gu Fei smiled and obeyed. This is not the first time, recently, he has had some contact with several princes, and he has sat in the carriages of several princes.

The second prince Li Shichang is the most enjoyable, the carriage is the most luxurious, the wine and food, and the beautiful palace maid is fragrant with red sleeves next to him, a rich and elegant atmosphere.

The third prince Li Shiping is gentle and elegant, the carriage is arranged in a more scholarly style, the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall of the car, a pot of good tea, not like the prince's carriage, but like a scholar.

The carriage of the four princes is the most simple, with a few volumes of Buddhist scriptures and a game of chess. Li Shiqing invited Gu Fei to play chess, and the two exchanged hands. Gu Fei's chess path is unpredictable, making it impossible to figure out what move he will make next, but Li Shiqian is ruthless and resolute, not confused by any tricks, pointing directly to the base camp, the two are inseparable, and in the end, Gu Fei lost with half a child.

The fourth prince, Li Shi, said: "I have conceded." ”

Even if he won the chess, Li Shiqing's face still did not change at all, and people could not see any joy.

Gu Fei smiled and said: "Where, it is the Fourth Highness who is very good at chess, and he is ashamed of himself." ”

"Do you want another plate?"

The fourth prince, Li Shiqing, asked.

"Nope."

Gu Fei shook his head: "The mansion of the Fourth Highness is also about to arrive, next time!" ”

Sure enough, the carriage began to slow down, and after a while, a subordinate voice sounded: "Your Highness, it has arrived." Gu Fei was about to lift the curtain and get out of the car, when the fourth prince, Li Shiqing, suddenly spoke: "If Brother Gu you can help me, one day, I will let Brother Gu get your wish." ”

Gu Fei's movements paused slightly.

"There is no basis for words."

"Evidence for this."

The fourth prince Li Shiqian said in a deep voice, without the slightest hesitation, this matter was obviously not proposed by him on a whim, but after a long time of careful consideration, he brought it up.

Gu Fei lowered her eyes slightly, and in the end, she didn't answer, just got out of the car and left.

The fourth prince, Li Shiqing, also entered the mansion, but did not go back to the bedroom, but went to a cross-courtyard study. Inside, there were braziers full of silver frost charcoal, warm as spring. Silver frost charcoal does not smoke, the price is very expensive, a pound of charcoal, is worth the expenses of ordinary people in Kyoto for a year. And such a first pot, still full, I really don't know how much it is worth. At most, it will only take a day or two to burn out.

The fourth prince Li Shi was frugal by nature, and even in his own house, he had never been so extravagant.

Such treatment, in the Four Princes' Mansion, is the only one, and there is no other semicolon.

In the study, there is a rocking chair, on which lies a middle-aged man with a sickly face, holding a book in one hand and a glass of wine in the other. Seeing the fourth prince Li Shiqing coming in, he was still lying on the ground and never got up.

The little servant who served in the study was clever enough to retreat and stand guard outside.

The fourth prince, Li Shiqing, dragged a chair and sat down, and talked in detail about the recruitment of Gu Fei.

"Mr. Zuo, it seems that Gu Fei is afraid that it will be difficult to become a person on our side, compared to me, he has had a better relationship with the Third Emperor Brother since he was a child, and it is natural to choose him."

The fourth prince, Li Shigan, was very depressed.

If Gu Fei was just Gu Fei, he wouldn't care so much, but Gu Fei is not just Gu Fei, he has the Xie family behind him, if he has Gu Fei's support, even if the Xie family will not help him explicitly, his attitude will be biased. Just this attitude will bring many benefits.

Hateful, such a benefit will go to the third prince Li Shiping.

This undoubtedly made the situation of the fourth prince Li Shiqing worse, there was not much chance of winning, and now, it has added a big obstacle.

"If this is the case, does Your Highness want to withdraw?"

Mr. Zuo asked.

"No!"

The fourth prince, Li Shigan, said categorically: "If you don't achieve your goal, you will not give up!" ”

The determination to never turn back is unmistakable.

Mr. Zuo nodded secretly in his heart, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't need to be so pessimistic, so Gu Fei may not necessarily identify the third prince." Gu Fei is a smart person, he knows that since he is involved in such a thing, he can't tolerate half-heartedness, if he has already made up his mind, he will not go to the second prince's mansion, let alone refuse His Royal Highness unclearly. Maybe he is indeed a little biased towards the three princes, but the three princes are good people when they say it well, and they don't want to offend anyone if they don't say it well, and they want to please everywhere. Such a person, when he ascends to the throne one day, will he be willing to offend the Zhenbei Mansion for Gu Fei? I'm afraid that Gu Fei also has some doubts in his heart. ”

The spirit of the fourth prince Li Shiqing was lifted.

"Sir, please advise me."

"Now there is a great opportunity, Li Mo's wedding banquet, what better way to show His Highness's attitude than this? At that time, Gu Fei saw clearly, he didn't need His Highness to solicit him, he would naturally take the initiative to find it. ”

"Sir, good move."

The four princes were settled.

Under the calm surface, the dark tide is constantly surging around the storage position under the court of Daxing, and the battle of killing people without seeing blood has been quietly unfolded in silence.

Those who have entered the game and those who have not yet entered the game, as long as they are in this whirlpool, they will not be able to escape in the end, and the fate and future of countless people will also be changed by this.

But these are not for the Red family, a small shrimp family in Kyoto, to consider. These are too far away from them. What they care about is not the overall situation of the imperial court and whose family the storage position is, but the fate of the head of the red family and the fate of the red family. In the past few days, although the Hong family cannot be said to be a gloomy cloud, their hearts are also heavy, and almost all of them have a bad feeling in their hearts.
