Chapter Ninety-Seven: Hesitation (II)

As soon as Xingzhao turned around, he saw a young man with a long figure and an anxious face brushing away the narrow leaves of the camphor tree in front of him with one hand, and the light leaked through the fine camphor leaves like a layer of curtains, casting mottled light on the young man's face, either explicitly or implicitly.

The sixth prince is still a twelve- or thirteen-year-old little Langjun, clear and elegant, frowning, but his eyes are as bright as the shining stars in the vast sky, and they are like a misty rain falling in the mountains at noon.

If the second prince is like a dashing and dignified knight, then the sixth prince is a man of letters.

Xing Zhao sighed in his heart, putting aside his preconceived prejudices, and had to admit that the sixth prince was really a young man with outstanding appearance.

But there are many gold and jade in the world, and there are good skins in it.

Isn't He Yan also a famous beautiful man in Dingjing City?

Xingzhao chuckled, moved invisibly to the place where there was light, lowered his eyelids, and bowed his body with full respect, and said softly: "I don't know what the sixth prince called his courtiers?" ”

The sixth prince felt that the letter in his sleeve was like a thousand jun, and it was like a fire burning, burning hot, and it would make a terrifying sound, and finally felt that it was inappropriate, and changed his mind halfway, and the words turned another corner in his mouth.

"Shen just wants to say to the county lord of Wenyang, General Fang, oh, that is, your uncle is an extremely heroic and martial person. He quelled the Miao'an Rebellion and stabilized Pingxi Pass, and the sons of the northwest did not recognize the admiral, but only recognized the generals, which were the merits of General Fang. General Fang defended the country with his flesh and blood, and in the Great Zhou, General Fang was the reincarnated Wei Qing. No. It's Yue Fei."

The boy's voice rustled. From the hesitation and uncertainty at the beginning, the more he spoke, the softer he became, with a somewhat reassuring look.

At the end of the words, the sixth prince coughed lightly uncomfortably, turned his head to avoid Xingzhao's eyes, and the exposed ears were red.

The six princes can talk eloquently in front of He Yan, and can help the second prince solve the siege and save the scene, but now he is stammering when he speaks. Speak incoherently. The more he listened to this, the more confused he became, and after hearing it, he couldn't help but jump in shock, Yue Fei didn't end well!

Hurriedly raised his face, nervously looked at the sixth prince who was half a head taller than her, squatted hastily, and greeted with a grateful expression: "The courtiers thank the six princes for their praise."

But his mind was spinning quickly, the spies of the Fang family came back every half a dozen in the old forest in the northwest, and he didn't hear that there was anything in the northwest The sixth prince was only recently ordered to go to the household department on an errand, even if he came into contact with the war ahead, he could only do a pair of money and grain account books. Where to go to get in touch with something deeper? mentioning my uncle inexplicably is like inexplicably sending a box of plasters that time

Xingzhao was confused. Then he quickly looked up at the red face of the sixth prince, and he couldn't see any joy or anger, his uncle was the hope of the Fang family, whether he was ashamed or lived with the heavy invisible rumors on his back, it depended on how his uncle would come back!

She and Empress Fang have the strength to deal with Ying Yi, could they stretch their arms so long to deal with the powerful Lin'an Hou?

Like being stirred up by ice water on a dog day, Xingzhao felt so cold in his heart that he panicked, leaned out half of his body, looked as usual but asked slowly: "What wind did the six princes listen to in the court?" It stands to reason that this is not something that a courtier should ask, but as you said, General Fang is also the uncle of the courtier, and the brother of the queen's mother. Earlier, it would have been possible for us all to be prepared."

She thought Fang Qi had died on the battlefield!

The sixth prince clutched the letter tightly in his sleeve, his knuckles were white, and the letter kept him awake at night and without eclipses.

Sink down and think about it carefully, from the source of the letter to the hiding place, there are many flaws in the process, he doesn't believe a word, but he can also imagine the uproar caused by this letter in the court. When he read the letter at a glance and ten lines, the first thing that came to mind was the little lady with a faint pink scar on her left cheek, her eyes were extremely bright but she would not stab anyone, quiet but not embarrassing, she could smile and take whatever others said, this was true for the joy of the golden branches and jade leaves, and the same was true for the little palace lady who was on an errand in the Fengyi Palace

Mother is dying, brother's life and death are unknown, and father's attitude is dark, they are already so pitiful, why take these things to make this little lady fall into the quagmire again

That's why I deliberately chose this plain dress this morning, so that I had the unfamiliar comfort at the moment, and the headless emotion in my heart.

The finger that was holding the envelope gradually loosened, and waited, waited.

Eventually, the water will fall and the stone will come out, and there is no reason in the world that the wind and sand will always block the eyes.

The sixth prince looked relieved, smiled with relief, like a new green bud that broke the ice in February, shook his head with a smile, and stuffed the letter hidden in his sleeve even more, while bending down and talking to Zhao Zhao: "It's okay, it's just that the rumors in Dingjing City are fiercer than tigers." The county lord of Wenyang only needs to firmly remember that your uncle is a man who stands up to the sky."

Xingzhao was stunned, the sixth prince, who had nothing to do with her, had heard the rumors in Dingjing City, and now it was really just to appease her?

A pair of apricot eyes widened, and for a moment he looked as usual, and said softly with a smile: "The flow pill stops at Ousuo, and the rumors stop at the wise." As long as the emperor and you both remember what your uncle did for Da Zhou, no matter what outsiders say, they can't shake the fundamentals. ”

The sixth prince was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, and his thoughts were speechless.

The current emperor, what kind of person is his father, he knows in his heart that the first emperor has six sons, and the Empress Dowager Gu is not from a high background, and even the emperor did not enter the consideration of the prince at all, but he climbed step by step, and after all, he ascended to the Ninety-Five.

A person who has no hope at all, even if he unexpectedly gets this thing one day, will be in a repeated mood of suffering from gains and losses all day long. Therefore, when the new emperor ascends the throne, there will be twelve ministers who will seize the title and cut the coupons, and there will be a few princes except for the king of Pingyang who is in charge of the Zongren Mansion, and the rest will be confined to Dingjing as a powerless nobleman

The concerns of the six princes are unknown to Xingzhao.

In the afternoon, on the entire island in the middle of the lake, you can only hear the exclamations of the second prince from time to time, the humming and chirping of the fourth prince when they follow the second prince, and the crisp voice of the eldest princess Xinrong pointing at them and laughing.

The young man didn't know what it was like to be sad, and he flew south.

The comfort of the spring melt dock ended when it was dyed with a touch of dusk at the end of the sky, and several palace people in the Fengyi Hall were holding hexagonal palace lamps in their hands, waiting on the shore of Taiye Lake, leading the masters of each family to the two small pavilions of the Fengyi Palace, the little lady dressing up, and the little Langjun changing clothes.

Set the table for dinner again, Xingzhao has filial piety on his body, and he still avoids in the flowers, and when he comes out after eating, only Concubine Shu is smiling and leading a pair of children to say goodbye, "I thought that the two of them were quiet, but now they are tried out." Ah Qing's clothes were standing with camphor leaves and ignored them, and Ah Bi's face was still red when he came back, and he was crazy at first glance."

Xing Zhaofu sat down obediently beside Queen Fang, when Concubine Shu talked about Ah Qing, the face of the sixth prince was uncomfortable on the floor, but Queen Fang saw it, and smiled: "How can the sixth person say that he is also the one who receives errands in the household department, and you still call Ah Qing and Ah Qing, like calling a little lady." He looked at the sky outside, and asked them to hurry back: "Your palace is far away from here, ask them to carry a sedan chair to see you and Huanyi, and the sixth child will return to the Qianqiu Pavilion today, right?" ”

Concubine Shu smiled and grabbed her daughter beside her, and replied "Yes", Queen Fang asked people to take out a box of things and let the sixth prince take it, "The second child doesn't like literature, the fourth child likes to watch plays, you are a person who likes to write and ponder, this box has Shangtang Hui ink, Zihao Lake pen, you can use it." ”

Because of the relationship between Concubine Shu, Queen Fang has always treated the six princes well.

The six princes thanked him, and Concubine Shu and his party were blessed and walked outside.

The hall became empty in an instant, several palace people lowered their eyebrows and hid behind the pillar to support the lamp, Jiang Mingying stood beside Queen Fang, Lian Yuhou was three steps away, obviously there were so many people, but Xingzhao felt that the emptiness was unbearable, so he simply tilted his head and leaned on Queen Fang, half-closed his eyes and stopped looking.

Empress Fang smiled and pinched her niece's face: "What's wrong?" Tired of playing? Go to bed early, it's easy to be unrestrained today, and you have to tighten the string in your head from tomorrow to the sixth day of June."

Xingzhao thought about it a few times in his heart, and after a while, he whispered and said the strange appearance of the six princes from the beginning.

Queen Fang raised her eyebrows lightly, patted Xingzhao's back gently, and said softly: "The second is a straightforward and reckless one, the fourth one follows the second one, but the sixth brother is the one who thinks the most and talks the least. That's what he said about your uncle, that's what he said in his heart, otherwise he hurried over to tell you this, what are you doing? I can guess what your uncle is doing, but it's not time to make it public. We're going to wait for him to come back."

The hexagonal palace lamp is bright, hanging high on the hanging beam is round, is covered with a thin layer of peach blossom paper, is held by the palace people in the hand is square, and all kinds of auspicious patterns are painted on it.

Xingzhao opened his eyes, looked straight at the warm, yellow lanterns and the warm light they emitted, and nodded heavily.

In the following month, as Queen Fang said, troublesome and trivial matters lingered, and there were no fewer people coming in and out of Fengyi Palace.

Although the emperor vaguely revealed some meaning of being pessimistic about Yingyi's marriage, but under the instructions of the Empress Dowager Gu, the six divisions would occasionally present a few things that were out of line, and the emperor didn't say anything after looking at the list.

Everyone seemed to have a backbone, and finally found the emperor's final attitude. (To be continued......)
