219, the official is small
Li Xiangdong has been in Beijing for three or four years, and although Xie Qingxiang has not had much contact with him, he knows that he is a restless master, with a delicate mind, and can exercise all the opportunities available to him to be promoted to a wealthy position, so when he saw Li Xiangdong and Xie Xiuqing's cordial moment, the first feedback was that Li Xiangdong wanted to exercise Xie Xiuqing.
Although Xie Xiuqing is a concubine, she is also a member of the Prime Minister's Palace, if she is deceived by Li Xiangdong and does any troubled work, the entire Prime Minister's Palace will suffer, so he will lose control of his talents......
Li Xiangdong smiled: "Gongzi Xie is calm, I just want to help others, so I will send Princess Xie back to the palace, there is no other meaning, and in the future, I will not take the initiative to find Princess Xie......" If Xie Xiuqing took the initiative to find him, he would not be blamed for work.
"That's good, please remember what you said today!" Xie Qingxiang's face was gloomy, and he unceremoniously ordered the eviction: "The weather is dark, it's not early, Li Gongzi, please go back!" ”
Li Xiangdong's gaze swept lightly, Xie Qingxiang, Gu Chichi, all the maidservants, after politely saying goodbye, turned around to say goodbye, the back door shrank, and the footsteps walked away.
Gu Chichi's eyes flashed: "Li Xiangdong is just a small seventh-grade official, a poor student, and a wife, Xiuqing will not take a fancy to him, Cousin Xiang is needless to worry about...... "Marriage, they young people should not talk about it, but now that the environment is extraordinary, they can't take care of it too much."
Xie Qingxiang sighed: "Li Xiangdong is young and handsome, very good at coaxing girls, and he is about to be promoted to the rank of fifth-grade official, Xiuqing'......s thinking is innocent, and he will definitely be deceived by him."
"Li Xiangdong is going to be promoted again? What did he do? "There are many talented people in the capital, if they are not related or make great contributions, there is no promotion on the foundation, Mu Xuelian and Li Xiangdong are very stiff, coupled with the prince's deliberate suppression, he can't be promoted by relationships, there is only another kind of approximation, making great contributions!
"Just the day before yesterday, he caught a few rebel small heads mixed in the wild hall......" Xie Qingxiang frowned: "It stands to reason that if you catch such a small person, you shouldn't be promoted so quickly, I really don't know what those ministers thought, and they actually let him be promoted from the seventh rank to the fifth rank all of a sudden......"
In recent days, Gu Chichi's life has been abnormal, sleeping during the day, serving the concubine at night, and having very little time to chat and talk with Ouyang Shaoxian. ”
Xie Qingxiang shook his head: "Not yet, some ministers want him to be promoted, but some ministers think that his achievements are not so great, and the two factions can't debate, and his promotion will be delayed for a while, but Wei Guogong's faction strongly supports him, coupled with the little extra work in the court, he has a great chance of being promoted to a five-rank official......
Gu Chi lowered his eyelids, Li Xiangdong had contact with the rebels, but caught the rebels to receive the reward, could it be that someone deliberately gave him the opportunity to be promoted and let him be promoted? If this is the case, it is very likely that the rebels have made some kind of plan for Li Xiangdong to carry out......
If the promotion is not down, the work will be transformed! Gu Chichi's cool eyes sparkled: "Cousin Xiang, do you think that Li Xiangdong will abandon Xiuqing as he promised?" ”
"Of course not!" Xie Qingxiang didn't think about it, so he gave the answer, in the past few years in Beijing, what Li Xiangdong did Xie Qingxiang was clear: "How can a person like him who is hungry for profit abandon a consolidated background, Li Xiangdong is not enough to rely on a Wei State Palace, and he has to pull the Prime Minister's Palace again...... "It's really hateful!"
Gu Chichi smiled lightly, if there is no accident, Li Xiangdong's words of protection have already captured Xiuqing's heart, with his cleverness and cunning, he will definitely produce some opportunities or incidents, so that Xiuqing takes the initiative to find him: "Cousin Xiang, I want to talk to Xiuqing and persuade her!" ”
"Although Xiuqing's nature is innocent, she is a stubborn character, and no one can persuade her to change the job she believes!" Xie Qingxiang is helpless, or helpless, Li Xiangdong exercised Xiuqing, which is equivalent to exercising the Prime Minister's Palace, if he does something evil, the result is beyond imagination, how to change his talent and prevent this work from happening......
"Xiuqing and I are both girls, and there are many topics to cooperate with each other, let me persuade her, not necessarily, she will listen to me!" Gu Chichi had already thought of a full set of plans.
"Okay!" So far, Xie Qingxiang has not come up with good facilities, so let Gu Chi try it, whether it will be effective, I don't know until I try it.
It is said that after Xie Xiuqing was sent back to the room, he continued to panic and walked back and forth in the room anxiously, I hope that the eldest brother is really not embarrassed Li Gongzi, Li Gongzi is a good person......
"Princess, the princess of King Chu Xuan asks to see you!" Outside the door, the little maid's report sounded, and Xie Xiuqing's eyes lit up: "Please!" ”
Gu Chichi had just walked into the room, and Xie Xiuqing had already hurried up to greet him, and his beautiful eyes flashed eagerly: "Cousin Chichi, eldest brother didn't embarrass Li Gongzi, right?" ”
Gu Chichi patted the back of Xie Xiuqing's hand and said with a smile: "Ning Shen, you don't know what Cousin Xiang is like, he said that he will no longer be embarrassed by Li Gongzi, and he will definitely not be embarrassed again!" Xiuqing was really puzzled by Li Xiangdong, and even his relatives no longer trusted.
"What about them?" They refer to Xie Qingxiang and Li Xiangdong.
"Cousin Xiang went to Anshun Hall to say hello to his grandmother, it's late, Li Gongzi has returned to the palace!" Gu Chichi briefly explained the whereabouts of the two of them, pulled Xie Xiuqing to sit down at the table, and after the maid served two cups of tea, she retreated, leaving only Gu Chichi and Xie Xiuqing in the inner room.
"Xiuqing, you and Li Gongzi, how did you break it down?" Judging by the level of familiarity between the two, this is not the first time they have met.
Xie Xiuqing was shy and timid: "Even on the day of the wedding of my cousin and Shaoxian, there were many people, and I was almost squeezed down, and it was Gongzi Li who helped me......"
Gu Chichi's eyes sank slightly, it had been more than a month......
"However, the two of us haven't seen each other much since then...... I really haven't seen it a few times...... "I'm afraid Gu Chichi misunderstood, Xie Xiuqing continued to annotate, these are her secrets, she didn't like to report to anyone, but Gu Chichi spoke out to persuade Xie Qingxiang and relieved Li Xiangdong, she has classified Gu Chichi as a good person, and she is happy to share these secrets with Gu Chichi.
Gu Chichi smiled lightly: "I believe in you!" "Xiuqing is good, living in the Prime Minister's Palace, leaving the palace is not idle, and the number of meetings with Li Xiangdong must be limited.
Yi You again and again, Gu Chichi lowered his voice: "Xiuqing, have you heard about Li Gongzi......" Li Xiangdong in the hearing, but he is a villain who is shameless, vicious, and omniscient!
Xie Xiuqing raised his eyelids, and the bottom of his eyes was filled sharply: "Cousin, those who heard that they are all ruining Li Gongzi, you must not believe it, during the time I have been with Li Gongzi, I have inquired about him, he is extremely talented, noble-minded, indifferent to fame and fortune......"
Gu Chichi sighed quietly, Xie Xiuqing was completely confused by Li Xiangdong, no matter what she said, she couldn't listen to it, Shicai, but she casually mentioned that she heard that she gave such a big feedback, if she said bad things about Li Xiangdong again, she would definitely drive herself out.
It is impossible to persuade Xie Xiuqing to abandon Li Xiangdong, so Gu Chi changed his strategy: "Is Xiuqing very porridge Li Gongzi?" ”
Xie Xiuqing's face turned red in an instant, and she shook Gu Chichi's hand and said angrily: "Cousin! ”
Gu Chichi smiled lightly: "Xiuqing will soon be in time, it's normal to talk about marriage, but, Xiuqing, my cousin advises you, I'd rather be a poor wife than a noble concubine!" ”
"If you marry, you have to be the main palace, you must not be a concubine, the wife is the main room, no matter how old you are, what the margin is, the lover will always respect you, and the children will respect you everywhere, if you are a concubine, the status will be lower, not to mention the suppression of the main palace from time to time, the old tree will be disliked by the beloved, the heirs are disrespectful, and even, their own biological children, calling others their mothers, but calling themselves an alienated concubine, that kind of heartache and flesh pain, people are unbearable......"
"Cousin, I know what you mean, you are calm, I, Xie Xiuqing, have only been a wife all my life, not a concubine!" Xie Xiuqing was born in the prime minister's palace of the wang family, and the most common thing to go to the main palace to suppress concubines, although the nature is innocent, he also knows that being a palace is a hundred times stronger than being a concubine, and being a wife can be a concubine who can abuse others at will, and being a concubine is only a part of being raped.
What's more, although she is a concubine, she is the famous pearl of Mrs. Xie Yunting's main room, and she has been loved since she was a child, how can she bear the pain of being suppressed by the main room.
Gu Chichi smiled and nodded: "If a bearded eyebrow is really cute about you, he will definitely marry you as the main palace, and he will not let you be wronged as a concubine at all......" Isn't Li Xiangdong very good at capturing the people's popularity? Isn't it that he keeps talking about porridge Xie Xiuqing every day, then let's see his sincerity, will he marry Xie Xiuqing and go back to be the main room!
Mu Xuelian is a real princess of the Wei Palace, and her personality is not good, if Li Xiangdong accepts a concubine, she can probably bear it, but if Li Xiangdong marries a concubine and goes back to be on an equal footing with her, she will definitely not be able to stand it.
Li Xiangdong has a small official position, and he is subject to the Wei Palace everywhere, he doesn't dare to turn his face with Mu Xuelian, marry a famous concubine and go back to be a flat wife, Xie Xiuqing is iron-hearted again, and swears not to be a concubine, tsk, this is a good show, you have to watch it!
The sun is slanting in the west, the weather is going to be late, after Gu Chichi came out of Xie Xiuqing's room, he went to Anshun Hall to say goodbye to Shen Lao Taijun, Xie Yunyan, and Xie Qingxiang, and got on the carriage back to Chuxuan's palace.
The work written on the letter continued to haunt her thoughts, was Concubine Wei really the murderer who killed her mother and brother? So what was the reason for her mother's death? If her mother and brother were really killed by her, then she was a rebel......
"Bang!" There was a violent sound, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Gu Chi stumbled back and forth, but fortunately he caught the edges and corners of the carriage, otherwise, he would have fallen to a wall.
Xiaoying walked forward quickly and turned over the curtain: "What's wrong?" ”
"Back to the girl, around the corner ahead, a horse collided with the carriage!" Fortunately, he stopped the carriage in real time, otherwise, it would have crashed into it, and with fewer pedestrians, the horse's speed would inevitably accelerate, and no one could see anyone around the corner, and it was not surprising that they collided.
The horse and the carriage collided, I don't know what kind of demeanor it would be, Gu Chichi was about to turn over the curtain to take a look, and there was a fierce quarrel on the surface: "You are driving the carriage and crashing my horse......"
Yu Wenzhen? But is it him? Isn't it acting again? Gu Chichi raised his eyebrows, held Xiaoying's hand, and got out of the carriage.
On the ground not far away, a horse fell to the ground, and it didn't get up for a long time, it was obviously broken, and on the side of the horse, there was a simple carriage parked, and there was no sign on the car, which clearly did not belong to the nobles of the high gate, but the carriage of ordinary people.
"I'm sorry, we were in a hurry, not intentionally......" The coachman stood near the horse, apologetic.
Yu Wenzhen didn't give up: "Just apologize and forget it, my horse can't be ridden, so why go home?" His eyes swept to the horses pulling the carriage, and Yu Wenzhen's eyes flashed: "Give me one of your horses, anyway, you are two horse-drawn carriages, one is missing, and the other is ......"
"This ......" the coachman was embarrassed.
