Chapter 195: Rendezvous

Xie Jing's eyes never left the ancient books in his hand, but he continued to say to Xu Youshan: "Things have developed to the present, it is estimated that Concubine Xian will not dare to ignore Concubine De anymore, originally Xie Yan is now married to Princess Dongji, so he and Concubine De should no longer have any threat to Concubine Xian's mother and son on the way to the throne." But Concubine Xian and Xie Wen forgot a little, although Xie Yan has nothing to do with the throne of Da Zhou, but if he and Concubine De, if they want to die, they can also make Concubine Xian's mother and son also miss the throne. ”

"Oh."

Xu Youshan understood every word Xie Jing said, but she still didn't understand why Xie Jing said this to herself, but it didn't matter, Xu Youshan nodded obediently when Xie Jing looked at it in a blink of an eye, and then continued to listen to him.

"But the first two times was that Concubine Xian didn't pay attention to Concubine De, so Concubine De was able to give Concubine Xian a big loss by surprise, but now Concubine Xian is awake, and the advantageous position and situation of Concubine Xian make Concubine De think that it is impossible to let Concubine Xian suffer a big loss like this time. And this time, Concubine Xian's choice of a concubine for Xie Wen can be seen very well. ”

"Mysterious? This time, Concubine Xian chose a concubine for Xie Wen, is there any mystery? Xu Youshan asked incomprehensibly.

"Of course."

Xie Jing said in a deep voice: "Above the court, there are either people from Xie Wen's family now, or they are not clear with the Bi family, so they have to stand together to deal with Xie Wen." Among the remaining officials, except for those who don't have any great abilities, only a handful of big clans are still maintaining a neutral position that are not favored by Xie Wen. Among them, there are a few forces such as the Xu family, as well as the Beiding Palace, the Zhenguo Mansion and the Wen family. ”

When Xie Jing said this, Xu Youshan understood a lot, and now the division of forces between the DPRK and China has long been clear. As Xie Jing said, if it wasn't for Xie Wen's family, it would definitely be tied up with the Bi family. If there are any left, it will definitely only be officials who are not outstanding in ability and are not valued by Xie Wen and Xie Yan at the beginning, otherwise if there are no extremely powerful people like the ones Xie Jing just said, then you want to remain neutral. didn't have that qualification, and he had already been exiled from the imperial capital by Xie Yan and Xie Wen.

"Then since the current forces have been clearly divided, why did Concubine Xian go to such great lengths to choose a concubine for Xie Wen?" Xie Jing asked again.

Oh, yes. Now that the power of the court has already been carved up, why does Concubine Xian have to go to such great lengths to choose a concubine for Xie Wen, directly from the big family that is close to Xie Wen, and choose a talented and good-looking lady to show off. It's enough to be a concubine for Xie Wen. It doesn't have to be so troublesome. Xu Youshan lowered her head and thought about it, but it was obvious that Xie Jing didn't expect her to answer, but said again: "Concubine Xian is not satisfied with the current situation, she wants to win over one of those neutral clans again, in order to strengthen Xie Wen's current strength." ”

When Xu Youshan heard this, she was stunned, the first thing she thought of now was Xu Yourong, Xu Yourong is still in the boudoir. Concubine Xian and Coco Xie's conspiracy won't hit Xu Yourong again, right?

Xu Youshan immediately raised her eyes anxiously to look at Xie Jing. And Xie Jing also seemed to have anticipated Xu Youshan's panic, and without waiting for her to ask, she comforted: "Your eldest sister will be fine, the matter of Ronghua Hall at the beginning made Xie Yan and Xie Wen both disgusted and disgusted by their father, and although Xie Wen was not like Xie Yan in the end, he was also severely noted by his father, so he will not pay attention to your eldest sister now." ”

"That's good." After Xie Jing finished speaking, Xu Youshan let out a long breath, but then she asked strangely: "Then Your Highness, who do you think Concubine Xian will target?" ”

"The Wen family." Xie Jing said in a deep voice.

Xu Youshan was stunned for a moment, and then said in disbelief: "How come, the matter of military supplies, the third prince was stabbed out by Lord Wen, and the confinement of the three princes by the saint can also be said to be caused by Lord Wen, how could Concubine Xian choose the daughter of the Wen family as the concubine of the third prince, are they planning something?" Xu Youshan looked at Xie Jing, said curiously, and asked all the questions in her heart, but in her words, it was not that she didn't believe that Concubine Xian would choose the daughter of the Wen family as Xie Wen's concubine, but wondered why they did this.

And this blind sense of trust made Xie Jing suddenly put down the book in his hand after listening to Xu Youshan's words, and looked at Xu Youshan quietly for a while in the blink of an eye.

"What are you doing?" Xu Youshan puffed out her cheeks and said angrily at Xie Jing.

"I didn't do anything." But Xie Jing bent his red lips and replied lightly, but his fluttering answer obviously couldn't appease Xu Youshan's frightened little heart just now, but just when Xu Youshan was about to crusade against Xie Jing again, Xie Jing suddenly lowered his head and bit her, making Xu Youshan stand on the spot immediately, and then his little face was so red.

"If it's Xie Wen, even if I overestimate his Shen Mansion, I naturally won't think he has such vision, but if it's a virtuous concubine, then it's a different matter." Unlike Xu Youshan, who was so ashamed at this time, Xie Jing looked at Xu Youshan, who was blushing, but suddenly turned upright, and explained to her with a straight look: "And although Lord Wen did stab Xie Wen in front of his father, and also caused Xie Wen to be confined in the palace, the more this is the case, if in the end, when Xie Wen's concubine chose the daughter of the Wen family, then Lord Wen, who is now favored by his father, will become the best talisman for Xie Wen." ”

Wen Rulin's uprightness is the most famous, if Xie Wen and Wen Rulin are tied to the same boat because of marriage, then Xie Wen's reputation will only be more powerful, which is fundamentally beneficial and harmless.

"What's more, among these big families that can still maintain neutrality now, the Qi family of the Beiding Palace, Concubine Xian doesn't dare to fight their ideas. And the rest of the Xu family is like this, the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion is because there is no candidate for marriage, so isn't there only the Wen family left? ”

When Xie Jing said this, his face sank a little. And Xu Youshan, who was in his arms, also understood the twists and turns after a while, so his face was not very good.

But after a while. Xu Youshan took the initiative to say to Xie Jing: "Your Highness, although I have no friendship with the Wen family girls, but in the Xu Mansion, our Xixi is Mr. Wen Ruyi Wen, she once told us that the Wen family's daughters have always put personal morality first. And in the Wen family. Although nothing was explicitly stated, even in the glorious period when the Wen family had several prime ministers and emperors, the Wen family never had a daughter enter the palace. Then I think that Mr. Wen is now called the most amazing and beautiful and well-behaved Lord Wen in the Wen family, and it is absolutely impossible for the Wen family's daughter to break this convention. ”

Xie Jing didn't expect Xu Youshan to be so sure, so the corners of his lips suddenly raised slightly. But then he said a little coldly: "But even Lord Wen won't pay attention to this olive branch thrown by Concubine Xian." But if Concubine Xian asks her father to decree a marriage......"

Halfway through the words, Xie Jing didn't continue, but Xu Youshan also understood, if Emperor Zhou Hui really decreed marriage, it would be a sure thing, and there was no other possibility.

Xu Youshan opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Xie Jing, saying that the situation could not be so bad. But after her mouth opened and closed and closed and opened several times, she didn't say anything. And Xie Jing, who was originally contemplative, was in a good mood when he saw Xu Youshan like this, it was really good to have such a sweetheart worried about himself.

Xie Jing's long finger suddenly exerted force, and when Xu Youshan didn't react, he picked him up, and Xie Jing's face was suddenly buried in her inky green silk, but she didn't say anything. And Xu Youshan was taken aback by Xie Jing's sudden action, but when she reacted, she didn't feel as angry as before, but instead used her right hand to bypass Xie Jing's slender neck and hugged him back.

In the middle of summer nights, the temperature is also very high, and at this time, people will not stick together, because even if they are just alone, it will be too hot to bear, not to mention being close to other heating elements?

But the current Xie Jing and Xu Youshan are different, although they are not immune to the scorching heat, but at this time, compared to the unbearable heat, hugging each other and absorbing the only comfort they want is what they need most.

……

……

The next day, after Xu Youshan watched Xie Jing leave the Chu Palace, she immediately asked the Wu Lin family to Zhang Luo, she was going to Nanhua Temple, and she wanted to ask Xu Yourong out, because Xu Youshan remembered that Xu Mingcheng said yesterday that today she was going to Nanhua Temple to offer incense and continue to pray for Qi Pei, the king of Beiding, who had gradually recovered from her illness, so when Xu Youshan made up her mind to ask Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng about the Wen family girls, she immediately decided that she would also go to Nanhua Temple today.

So under the neat preparation of Wu Lin and Liu's mother, the matter of going out was immediately ready, and after Xu Yourong nodded and said that the reply was delivered, Xu Youshan immediately left the Chu Wangfu and went to Nanhua Temple.

Nanhua Temple is a famous Buddhist temple in the capital of God, and people who have always come to worship are in an endless stream all year round, so after Xu Youshan finally arrived at Nanhua Temple, what she saw was the bustling picture of the crowd, which was really lively.

"Sister Shan?" And just when Xu Youshan was sighing for the constant hustle and bustle in front of her, Xu Mingxi's voice came from the side. At this time, the place where Xu Youshan was located was a place for officials and nobles to park their carriages and horses, so although there was a bustling crowd in front of Nanhua Temple, around Xu Youshan, everyone was quiet and orderly, and because of this, Xu Mingcheng took a look at the carriage and looked around casually, and saw Xu Youshan who was in a slight daze on the car not far away.

"Sister Xi." Xu Youshan hurriedly turned her head, and when she saw Xu Mingcheng's figure walking towards her, she also had a smile in her eyes, so she immediately took Liu's mother's hand and carefully boarded the carriage, and also greeted Xu Mingcheng.

"Why are you here? Are you looking for something about me? Xu Mingcheng pulled Xu Youshan, and when she saw a thin layer of fine sweat on her head, she hurriedly took out a cotton handkerchief to gently wipe her sweat, but she reprimanded in her mouth: "You too, your left hand is not well yet, why do you go out of the house after a long journey, can't you send someone to talk about something, why do you have to come over in person." ”

"Don't I miss you, I miss you every day." Xu Youshan said with a smile in front of Xu Mingxi, but her eyes looked around, and after seeing that there were people from the Chu Wangfu and the Beiding Wangfu all around, she approached Xu Mingcheng and whispered: "I have something to tell Sister Mingxi, and I have already asked the eldest sister to come over." Looking at this time, I am afraid that it will not be long before the eldest sister will arrive. ”

Xu Youshan's words made Xu Mingcheng stunned, and then at this moment, there was a line of carriages and horses coming in the distance, Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan looked at each other, and found that it was the Xu family's carriage effortlessly, and the two of them knew that this was Xu Yourong coming, so Xu Mingcheng suppressed the doubts that were already in his throat, and stepped forward with Xu Youshan to meet Xu Yourong.

And Xu Yourong's canopy carriage with gold and beads hanging down from his heart also stopped not far in front of Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan, Xu Yourong jumped out of the carriage and said directly to Xu Youshan: "Sister Shan, if what you want to talk to me about in a while, if it is not so important that I must reschedule my appointment with Nie Liu, then you can wait for me to clean it up." Xu Yourong was very "gentle and amiable", and showed a big smile to Xu Youshan.

"Yes, yes, I know, the eldest sister, sister Huan, let's go to the temple, this is not a place to talk." Xu Youshan said to Xu Yourong with some tears and laughter, and although Xu Yourong was very sorry that she couldn't meet him in Nie Suhyun's rare rest today, she also knew that Xu Youshan would not be so nervous to get her and Xu Mingcheng together when she was fine, so she still walked towards Nanhua Temple very cooperatively.

In Nanhua Temple, there are many large and small courtyards for pilgrims to come here to worship the Buddha and get pilgrims to rest, and these large and small courtyards are also very different, at least Xu Youshan and the three of them are now in this courtyard, which is very different from other courtyards, although in Nanhua Temple in addition to the treasure hall for the Buddha, there is no courtyard that has a magnificent layout.

But in the courtyard where Xu Youshan and the three of them are now, it is very elegant and impressive, and the unique delicacy is impressive. (To be continued.) )
