239 Opportunities and Pitfalls
Single Moon Temple
"Help me check the two show girls of the Liu family and the Guo family to be married."
"Yes"
After Baili Chenxi came back from Yunxi Palace and ordered the secret guards, he locked himself in the study alone. At the same time, I also calculated in my heart the time when Xia Cicada entered Beijing. According to a message from the Dark Guard. Xia Chan: They should have less than a day to reach the capital. It looks like something is on the agenda.
"Grandpa Huang, come in."
"Yes" The door to the study was pushed open from the outside. Then came a gray-haired eunuch.
"What does the eldest prince command?"
"Gonggong Huang, this prince has been away from Beijing for many days. I don't know what Gonggong Huang thinks of the form of the palace in the past two months. ”
"This ...... The eldest prince, please forgive the old slave for speaking bluntly. The current situation is both an opportunity and a trap for the Great Prince. ”
"Oh, what do you mean?" Baili Chenxi walked to the bookcase and sat down.
Huang Gonggong took two steps forward. Eyes rolled slightly. "The purpose of the eldest prince's recent departure from Beijing is well known. The third prince wanted to make a little achievement during the time when the eldest prince was away from Beijing. At the same time, I want to find out the mistakes of the eldest prince. It's a lot of painstaking work. Unfortunately, in the end, he was profited by the four princes. Because of the matter of hearing about the eldest prince, the third prince not only lost a few old courtiers who were loyal to him in the end. At the same time, his prestige in the eyes of the people has also been greatly reduced. The emperor's attitude towards the three princes is also much worse than before. It's an inconspicuous fourth prince. It suddenly came to the fore in this fight. However, the identity of the fourth prince is a cut away from the eldest prince. The emperor loves the queen very much. The treatment of the eldest prince is also different from that of other princes. So the old slave felt that this was an opportunity for the eldest prince. ”
"What about the trap?"
"As for the traps. Then it is also necessary to say that the three princes are. The three princes have always been cautious. It's the Wen family. These days because of the sudden return of the eldest prince to Beijing. It's also a lot more low-key. The eldest son of the Wen family is even more stable. I'm afraid there was something strange about the sudden accident this time. Wen Guifei and the queen mother thought about it. This time, after the Wen family was reprimanded by the emperor, not only did they not take the initiative to go to the emperor to cry. Even the queen is a little more respectful than before. And the old slave also heard that the third prince and the fourth prince. Concubine Wen and Concubine Liu have been very close recently. All signs show. It's not easy at this point. If the eldest prince acts in a hurry, he will inevitably fall into a certain predicament. ”
"You have a point." Baili Chenxi nodded. looked at Gonggong Huang's eyes with a little more respect. Huang Gonggong used to be the queen mother. When he first returned to the palace, the queen was worried that he would not be able to cope with the rules and etiquette of the palace. transferred Huang Gonggong over. He didn't think much of it at the time. Later, I learned that Huang Gonggong was a resourceful strategist. It was the queen mother's wedding guard.
"Then what if this prince plans to compete for the crown prince. What are the odds of winning. "After returning to the palace yesterday, my father inadvertently revealed to him the canonization of the crown prince. He didn't think much of it at the time. Now that I saw Huang Gonggong, I suddenly wanted to ask about it.
Before, maybe he wasn't greedy for power. But after a trip to Qingyang County, he found how tempting the right thing is. How important.
He thought as he saw his beloved woman in danger again and again. If he has the supreme position of power. Will she not have to face such a situation today?
"The crown prince, the eldest prince is already winning, isn't it?"
Baili Chenxi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed a few times. got up and stepped forward to pat Huang Gonggong's shoulder and said
"He is worthy of being a person who is valued by the queen mother. Sure enough, it was resourceful. "Yesterday, when my father told him about canonizing a crown prince, he also asked him if he was willing to be a prince. At the time, he said it vaguely. But he believed that with the wisdom of his father. Naturally, I could hear the meaning of his words.
"The eldest prince has won the prize. The old slave congratulated the eldest prince in advance. ”
"Thank you."
After Gonggong Huang left the study. Baili Chenxi was not in a hurry to deal with the government. Paced to the windowsill. The early autumn breeze blew through the window into the house, and the cool breeze crept through the cheeks into the clothes. It's a little cool, and it's more of a strange nostalgia and missing.
"Daughter-in-law, I miss you. You are today. Did you miss me? ”
………………
"Murong Ye, you are a liar. Big liars. It's been a long time. Is there a word you have ever said that can be kept? How many times have I said it. I'm going to ride a horse by myself. I don't want to ride with you. ”
Murong Ye sat behind Xia Chan. Wrap your hands around Xia Cicada. Pull the reins of the horse. Slowly moving forward.
"How did I lie to you. Didn't I let you ride it alone once that day? In the end, you shouted for me to save you. Why, now I forgot about it so quickly. ”
Xia Cicada pursed the corners of her mouth. This man really holds a grudge. The day after the heavy rain. Murong Ye suddenly found out his conscience. Finally led a jujube red horse and let Xia Cicada ride alone. Xia Cicada was quite happy at first. You know the joy of getting what you want. But the joy was not more than a quarter of an hour. Xia Cicada cried his father and began to shout for help. Why. The horse is running too fast. Disobedient......
Murong Ye didn't really want Xia Chan to ride a horse alone. Since then, as long as Xia Chan wants to ride a horse alone. He gambled on her on the events of that day. A few days passed. Since that day, Xia Chan has never ridden a horse alone. It's no wonder if I'm not depressed.
Welfare that has been worked hard for a long time. Half an hour was deprived. No one can bear that kind of loss.
"Murong Ye, why didn't I find you so thick-skinned before. It's almost time to catch up with the corners of the city walls. ”
"Thank you for the compliment. However, I feel that my cheekiness is compared to the corners of the city walls. Or maybe my cheeks are better. ”
"You...... Hum. Too lazy to pay attention to you. "After more than ten days of getting along. Xia Cicada can be regarded as seeing through it. Murong Ye is a black-bellied man. Don't look at her usual good talking. If there's one thing he wants to hold onto. It was almost impossible for ten horses to pull back.
Never mind. I fought for a long time. She didn't have the upper hand at all. The morning meal was all over. It's going to be a little hungry. I looked up at the sky. There was still some hour until noon. Let's save some strength to hurry.
Xia Cicada was quiet. Murong Ye let out a long sigh of relief. This woman is so capable of tossing. If she insisted on it just now. He was about to surrender.
"Get a good rest. In three days, we will be in the capital. When you arrive in the capital, how about I treat you to a big dinner. ”
"Is there any meat?" In the world of summer cicadas. No meat, no joy. As long as there is meat, it is a good place for her.
Murong Ye disagreed. A girl. Eat meat all day long. It's really insulting. However, he was very unprincipled in front of Xia Chan. In line with the principle of loving the house and the black. Xia Cicada likes to eat, and slowly he begins to like it.
"Yes. Guaranteed to keep you fed. ”
"Okay." (To be continued.) )
