Chapter 51: U-turn

Although Xia Houjin asked Xia Yingjiu to stay in the carriage honestly, she was willing, so she secretly opened a gap in the curtain of the carriage and looked out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The three people who came from the opposite side were very raw, and Xia Yingjiu had never seen them.

"Lord Xia, it's not early now, if the pace is a little slower, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the next town at night, and I can't help but sleep in the open air, why don't you rest in the imperial city for one more night? My master has prepared a banquet, so he thought about inviting Lord Xia to the house to talk, and personally send a few out of the city early tomorrow morning, I don't know what about Lord Xia? The man in the lead said.

Although it was an inquiry, there was no negotiation at all when it looked at the posture.

Xiahou Jin smiled: "If it weren't for Your Excellency blocking the way, we would definitely be able to arrive, with good intentions, but the time is in a hurry, please tell your master that you will definitely go to the banquet next time." ”

The man seemed to have anticipated his answer, and did not have the slightest idea of giving way: "Do you know who my master is?" ”

"I only know who Qingzhu's master is." Xiahou Jin's expression remained unchanged and replied.

Inside the carriage, Ning Ziyue quietly tugged Xia Yingjiu's sleeve and whispered, "Our master is really handsome, and he brought a wave of good festivals. ”

Xia Yingjiu glanced at her: "You are talking nonsense again." With that, he turned his gaze away.

The man in the lead seemed to be choked as well, and his mouth was half loud and he didn't know what to say.

Then, he seemed to frown a little annoyed: "My master is His Royal Highness the Great Prince, this is the waist card of the Great Prince, we are naturally sincerely inviting a few, doesn't Lord Xia even care about the face of the Great Prince?" ”

As he spoke, he took a golden waist card from his waist and raised it.

When Xiahou Jin heard this, he glanced at Old Man Xia, and looked at it, it didn't look like it was fake, and no one dared to falsify this matter near the imperial city, but if it was someone else, it would be fine, but if it was someone under the eldest prince, it would be a little difficult to do.

Although the emperor is an upright young man, he should have decided on the candidate for the crown prince a long time ago, and there were ministers who mentioned this matter in the early court, but the emperor has not paid attention to it.

In addition, the emperor's temperament is unpredictable on weekdays, and the ministers dare not mention it more, resulting in the position of the crown prince is still vacant now, and on weekdays, except for the eight princesses, the emperor's attitude towards other princes and princesses is also very indifferent, and he can't figure out who the next emperor will be.

Can't the eighth princess succeed to the throne, right?

Under the same conditions, if it is determined according to the eldest and youngest, the probability of being the eldest prince is naturally greater.

So Xiahou Jin didn't dare to be too tough, if the great prince really inherited the unification in the future, if he really brushed his face today, wouldn't he dig a pit for himself?

So after exchanging glances with Old Man Xia, Xia Houjin made a decision in his heart, but he still couldn't help sighing.

No matter what happened to him or Old Man Xia, he was tired of the officialdom's deception, so he hid in Zhizhou City, and his life was at ease, and it was the most important thing to bring Xiao Jiu up alone.

Now I still can't escape the things that are involved.

The purpose of the eldest prince, Xiahou Jin can guess seven or eight points if he thinks about it.

First, it is to find out the news, last night's incident, I'm afraid everyone here is in the eyes, and there are not a few people who want to figure it out, which is also reasonable.

But I guess the bigger purpose of the eldest prince is probably to win people's hearts.

Everyone here can naturally see the importance of the "person of fate" to the emperor, although it is not sure whether it is Xia Yingjiu, but before there is no other choice, she is the only one.

Now that the emperor has not established the position of crown prince, the most anxious is naturally not those ministers of the court, but his unfavored princes.

If you can win over the Xia family, maybe you can please the emperor? I'm afraid this is the most important purpose of the eldest prince.

It's just that even if I don't want to wade into this muddy water, I'm afraid I can't avoid it.

So Xiahou Jin said calmly: "It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Great Prince, please lead the way over there." ”

The man who took the lead snorted coldly and put away the waist card, although he had a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, but obviously he had been explained a lot before he came, and he knew the importance of this matter to the eldest prince, so he didn't say anything, but pinched the horse's belly and took the first few steps to lead the way.

Xiahou Jin had no choice but to drive to keep up.

The matter was still a foregone conclusion, Xia Yingjiu looked at it for a moment, then lowered the curtain and sat back on the soft collapse.

"That's good, I haven't left the imperial city yet, and I'm going back again." Xia Yingjiu frowned, naturally a little unhappy, when is this day the beginning, it was the eighth princess who came in the afternoon, and this time there was a big prince.

Tomorrow, maybe a few more big guys will come, like this, when will I be able to return to Zhizhou City.

I don't know if I can see that Xia Yingjiu's mood doesn't seem to be very good, Ning Ziyue rarely didn't interject, but sat obediently in her seat, looking like she was thinking about something.

Xia Yingjiu was also annoyed at this time, yes, and he didn't notice her.

The carriage entered the imperial city and drove directly to the palace of the eldest prince without stopping.

Although the eldest prince was also present at the banquet yesterday, Xia Yingjiu thought about it, but he didn't have the slightest impression, and he didn't know if he was paying attention to other things.

"I don't know what the temperament of this big prince is, I hope it won't be too difficult." Xia Yingjiu thought in his heart, so he unconsciously spoke.

Fortunately, there were no others in the carriage, otherwise if you heard such disrespectful words and spread them to the ears of those who cared about it, you would definitely be a demon again.

Ning Ziyue heard these words, she blinked her eyes, and after thinking for a moment, she blurted out: "Miss, what did you say Ji Moyan?" Big idiot. ”

Interrupted by her, Xia Yingjiu came back to his senses, and then glanced at her with a little meaning: "You are not small, you actually call the name of the eldest prince directly, speaking of which, I still don't know his name, but you even know what kind of character he is?" ”

Ning Ziyue covered her mouth consciously and laughed a few times: "I also heard about it, just yesterday you and the master went to the palace, I was bored and walked around the city, and what I overheard was all said by others." ”

Xia Yingjiu didn't break her, in fact, sometimes I see her always leaking her old bottom, and it's funny to look at.

"Well, I've finally come up with a good reason." Xia Yingjiu gave a thumbs up.

Ning Ziyue pretended to be stupid and scratched her head, but she didn't dare to answer anymore, she couldn't wait to seal her mouth.
