Chapter 45: The Dark Tide Surges
Pretending not to see Li Zhi's playful eyes, Shang Shang absentmindedly said goodbye to Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She didn't learn history well, and she only vaguely remembered that the ambiguous relationship between the crown prince Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang began after Li Shimin was sick in the palace in the last years of Zhenguan.
But since she found out about the relationship between Li Ke and Wu Meiniang, she left Li Zhi's matter behind. Now that history has changed, Li Zhi will not have a chance to have any indecent love with Wu Meiniang, and in the end, the fact that Wu Meiniang will usurp the country will become a joke.
However, what she had just seen made her heart jump again. Could it be that this is the powerful error correction power of the legendary history? Even if the person Wu Meiniang really loves in her heart is Li Ke, will she still come together with Li Zhi in the end?
Wu Meiniang's expression was too strange, although her perfectly dressed face showed a touching shyness. But I don't know if it's a psychological effect or something else, Shang Shang always feels that the shyness she shows in front of her contains an awkward sense of play.
What exactly is she trying to do? Shang Shang tightened his brows, and suddenly remembered the words he heard Li Ke say that day with unclear meanings, and his heart seemed to have a lightning bolt, and suddenly brightened up.
What a stupid woman! The merchant muttered. That day, Li Ke's words of retreating as advance obviously made Wu Meiniang, a stupid woman, put it in her heart. What an enemy on all sides! What is at stake! It's just to say that Wu Meiniang's alarmist words!
Do you really think that you can help your loved ones in this way? If it was really a man who put her in the palm of his hand to care for her, how could he let her enter the palace as a concubine in the first place? How could she be allowed to do such a thing now?
The businessmen couldn't help but feel a little unworthy for Wu Meiniang, and some despised Li Ke's approach. As a man, how can you take advantage of a woman's love like this? Even if you don't love her, you shouldn't do it!
Shang Shang angrily grabbed a few willow leaves and pinched them in his hand, and said something in his mouth, but then he hesitated.
Would she like to talk to the prince? Wu Meiniang must have no ill intentions when approaching him. But what was she going to say? said that Wu Meiniang has a leg with Li Ke, she must have an attempt to approach you? Doesn't this completely expose Wu Meiniang's privacy?
Although Wu Meiniang's ill-intentioned ill-intentioned treatment of Li Zhi made the merchants who loved the house and Wu a little dissatisfied, she was also a woman after all, and the merchants felt that it was not a good idea to expose her privacy in front of others.
Shang Shang thought about it, and decided to go with the flow, such a major event in the DPRK and China is not something that a simple-minded person like her can mix, so let's take care of ourselves first! If Li Mo or Li Zhi came to her during this time, she would mention it, if she didn't come, she just didn't see it!
Thinking about it, Li Zhi would not be stupid enough to really believe Wu Meiniang, at least the Li Zhi she saw was by no means the cowardly and incompetent Emperor Gaozong in history!
Li Zhi didn't turn around until he couldn't see the back of Shang Shang, and looked at the charming mother in front of him again.
Of course, it was not an accident to meet Wu Meiniang in the Imperial Garden this time, since the last time he picked up her Shuangfeng Jinbu Shao, he has been paying attention to her whereabouts.
He pondered for a long time and couldn't figure out Wu Meiniang's intention to approach him like this, out of a moment of curiosity and an indescribable feeling, he made a decision that he might regret for the rest of his life.
"What? Are martial artists familiar with businessmen? The expression on Li Zhi's face could not show joy or anger.
Wu Meiniang was a little apprehensive, was she really too eager? She should have known that Li Zhi was not a simple character.
It is not easy for someone to be able to sit firmly in the position of the prince! What's more, this man is still the son of the eldest grandson Wujian who has occupied the harem for many years, and he has been raised by Li Shimin's side since he was a child, so she shouldn't underestimate him!
"Su Sile is both talented and understanding, and Mei Niang has always introduced her as a confidant." Wu Meiniang thought about it, this sentence was not hypocritical.
Ever since she heard the song sung by Shang Shang, she felt that Shang Shang understood her, and she had always looked at her differently. Although she doesn't get too close to her identity on weekdays, Wu Meiniang has been doing her best to protect her, and that time in her Yilan Palace, if she hadn't pulled Li Shimin away, I'm afraid that the businessmen would not have passed the test so easily.
"Oh! It's the first time I've heard of it. Li Zhi made a very interested gesture, but his eyes kept observing Wu Meiniang's expression.
It was clear that she was not lying this time. When she made a weak and helpless appearance before, the alienation and awkwardness that flashed in her eyes did not escape his eyes. obviously came with a plan, but he had to make an affectionate appearance to him, which made him interesting to watch.
What a lovely woman! A faint smile hung on the corner of Li Zhi's mouth, but his heart throbbed slightly.
"The prince doesn't move around the harem much, and it's normal to not know what happens between us women." Wu Meiniang looked up at Li Zhi, and the light in her eyes was a little inexplicable.
Although Li Zhi and Li Ke are not too similar, looking at it like this also makes her heart feel more comforted.
Li Ke is the king of Wu, and he is not from the eldest grandson queen, and he has his own mansion and fief when he becomes an adult. And Li Zhi, as the youngest son of the eldest grandson queen, grew up in the palace since he was a child, and in recent years, he has been named the crown prince and will wander in the palace almost every day.
Thinking of Li Ke's efforts to get the attention and affirmation of his father, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Li Zhilai. is also Li Shimin's son, and all this that Li Zhi got was too easy! And her Ke has to pay a hundred times or even a thousand times his efforts to get it back. It's not fair!
"Compared with other brothers, Zhi is already lucky, and it is also a blessing for Zhi to be by his father's side." looked at the fire in Wu Meiniang's eyes. I don't know why Li Zhi felt a little depressed.
He clearly knew what that smear of fire meant, and it wasn't that he hadn't heard the secret people talk about the relationship between his third emperor brother and Wu Meiniang. But I don't know why, seeing Wu Meiniang hating him for other men like this made him feel a little unhappy!
Wu Meiniang's face was a little unsightly. Li Zhi's words undoubtedly speak of Li Ke's current situation, and if he can't always be by Li Shimin's side, there will undoubtedly be fewer opportunities to show his face in front of his father and compete for favor, which is Li Ke's weakness!
"What? Is the martial artist unwell? Li Zhi looked at Wu Meiniang's somewhat pale face and asked with concern.
"Maybe I read late last night, and I felt a little headache when I woke up this morning." Wu Meiniang covered her forehead.
She's too careless! How could he be so unscrupulous in front of Li Zhi?
"Then the talented man should go back to the dormitory to rest early!" Li Zhi looked around, but he didn't see the big palace maid that Wu Meiniang usually brought with him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up again, it seems that Wu Meiniang really spared no effort to get close to him!
"Hmmm! That Mei Niang went back to Yilan Hall first. Feeling Li Zhi's hospitality, Wu Meiniang almost had the urge to run away.
For some reason, she just felt that Li Zhi didn't seem to be as attracted to her as he appeared. Maybe he looks very gentle and has a lot of affection. But she didn't know what went wrong, she always felt that Li Zhi looked at her with a teasing look in her eyes. The feeling of a cat catching a mouse made her spine hairy.
"Zhi will turn around and send the talented person's steps over!" Looking at the back of Wu Meiniang, who left in a hurry, the smile on the corner of Li Zhi's mouth froze.
For the first time, he was a little envious of his third emperor brother! There could be a woman who did so much for him! Put it on yourself, even if it's his crown princess Wang, you can't do it! But this person who has become their mother concubine can do nothing for the sake of the three emperor brothers!
Li Zhi stood in place and quietly looked at the direction where Wu Meiniang left, and after a long time, he turned around, called Xiao Chengzi, who was standing behind the rose bush in the distance, and slowly walked towards the East Palace.
After Li Shimin finished the Buddha Bathing Festival, he drove back to Taiji Palace from Huguo Temple. As soon as he returned to the palace, he came the good news that Liang Jianfang, the general of the Right Military Candidate, had broken the pine and was a barbarian.
This made the elderly Li Shimin extremely happy, and the victory in this campaign undoubtedly proved that he was still the wise and powerful King of Qin who won thousands of miles away, and not a weak old man who was dying of old age. Even the people in the harem sensed the excitement of the old emperor.
For a few days in a row, the old emperor in a state of excitement repeatedly summoned the palace concubines to sleep, and there was quite a taste of rejuvenation, and for a time the spring in the harem was boundless, and all the palace concubines were wearing peach blossoms, and even those good little yellow doors secretly opened a bet on which palace concubine was sleeping today.
In this peach-colored atmosphere, the undercurrents in the last years of Zhenguan have begun to surge, and Li Shimin's great revitalization in the harem cannot stop the ruthless passage of time.
At the beginning of May of the twenty-second year of Zhenguan, in the lively atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty singing and celebrating the return of Songwaiman to the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling, who was seventy years old, finally fell ill.
This gray-haired old man, at the end of the twenty-first year of Zhenguan, the plan to save his son's fate still inevitably fell ill, years of hard work and age made his body deteriorate, and finally collapsed on the day before the Dragon Boat Festival in May.
Fang Xuanling's illness was so fierce that Li Jing was really no better, in just a few days, the already thin person had become inhuman, and the imperial doctors were all helpless.
When the news reached the palace, Li Shimin, who was intoxicated with his majestic dream, was like a slap in the face. This comrade who has fought with him for so many years has fallen silently?
This news made him a little uncomfortable! Although Li Jing's condition was serious, it didn't give him such a feeling. He suddenly had a very bad premonition. Fang Xuanling is afraid that he won't be able to pass this level!
"Someone! Swing! I'm going to see Fang Aiqing! Sitting on the dragon seat of Cuiwei Hall for a long time, Li Shimin, who seemed to have come to his senses, gave an order with a cold face.
This time, even if he wants to go against the sky, he will leave Fang Xuanling! He is the Son of Heaven! Who dares to disobey the order? (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
