Chapter 40: Lao Tzu is the coolest
The old emperor had nightmares all night, the great monk of Xiangguo Temple was helpless, and the upset emperor His Majesty Long Yan was furious.
Yao Baobao, the eunuch of Bingbi, was slapped in the face by the emperor with a cup, and he didn't dare to hide, and he was broken.
Except for Concubine Wu, no one around him wanted to get close to the emperor, and in just three days, more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs had been killed by the cane.
All of this has nothing to do with Chen Shou, and the rumors in the imperial city have made the East Palace breathe.
No one came to bully the prince of the East Palace anymore, everyone was busy interpreting the old emperor's dreams, at least to avoid the limelight in a low-key manner.
In the East Palace, Chen Shou and several Yilu lieutenants stood outside the gate of the East Palace and chatted with each other.
The weather was hot, and most of the people stood still, only Chen Shou looked back and forth at the surrounding palaces with his hands, not still making a grimace at the palace people passing by in and out, causing the little palace maids to cover their lips and snicker.
This happiness didn't last long, and soon Chen Shou was as hot as his grandson, panting.
Captain Yilu is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and can be assigned to the East Palace, which shows that everyone is unlucky.
The probability that this prince can inherit the throne is pitiful, although he is the eldest son of Genzheng Miaohong, and the emperor's other sons are not very successful, but his body is too poor.
Bedridden all the year round, with a sallow complexion, he has to be supported by three or five people when he travels, which makes people doubt whether he can survive his Lao Tzu's death.
"Brother Shou, do you have a way to that perfume in Xiliang?" A lieutenant with a slender figure and a face like a crown of jade asked.
Chen Shou squinted at him, this kid's name is Cui Bohao, he is a relative in the family, and he is a cousin of the late old crown princess.
"You big man, what do you want perfume?"
When Cui Bohao heard that he didn't directly refuse, he expected Chen Shou to have some way, and said with a sneer: "Isn't this my good fan in Zuixianlou asking for a bottle, I owe several gold cakes these days, if I can find a bottle, she will be happy to give me a free bottle." ”
Chen Shou lowered the brim of his hat to cover the scorching sun, and said listlessly: "That thing is so expensive, unless you have money, where can I get you a bottle?" ”
"Alas, alas... This thing is in high demand, if anyone has a bottle, in the painting boat Qinglou in Bianliang, it is called a do whatever he wants. ”
Chen Shou's heart was even more irritable, he was sweating from the sun, and he really envied that these birdmen could still have the heart to think about the Qinglou.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and several guards of the forbidden army walked over quickly and said loudly: "Cui Bohao, where are your heads?" ”
"Rest in there."
"You go and tell him, the higher authorities have given an order, if anyone can cure His Majesty is insomnia and dreams, a reward of 1,000 taels of gold, and the official will be promoted to one level."
Chen Shou's ears moved, this reward is really tempting, but it's a pity that he can't make sleeping pills.
As soon as the guards left, an attendant came out and asked timidly, "Which one is Captain Chen Shou?" ”
"It's me."
Chen Shou straightened his hat and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Captain Chen, the crown princess is invited."
Chen Shou followed the little chamberlain to a palace, and he didn't know where the ice was buried, and there was a hint of cool air as soon as he came in.
In the outer hall of the palace, the little chamberlain stopped Chen Shou and asked him to wait here, and he himself lowered his head and bent down to open a crimson curtain to enter.
After a while, a palace maid came out, lifted the curtain with her hand, and called softly: "Captain Chen, the crown princess announced that you are coming in." ”
Chen Shou saw that she was quite attractive, so he bent down and said with a smile: "There is Sister Lao." ”
The palace maid hurriedly dodged sideways, "Slaves and maids don't deserve such a big gift." ”
Chen Shou didn't dare to flirt with his sister in front of his sister-in-law, so Da Lala walked in.
Li Lingfeng leaned on a couch near the window to the north, covering his face with a fan, not knowing whether he was asleep or awake.
"The crown princess?" Chen Shou shouted.
Li Lingfeng sat up straight, looking very tired, the fan had not yet been taken away, and said coldly: "Chen Shou, my brother's whereabouts have now been discovered, and he is holding him in Beisizhao Prison." I heard that you have some friendship with a few stewards of the North Division, can you rescue people? ”
Chen Shou was a little puzzled, I didn't mess with you, why did I hear this sister-in-law's tone a little unkind.
He thought about it for a while, and suddenly understood that since she knew about the relationship between himself and Beisi, it must have been a communication from the General's Mansion, so she probably knew about herself and Widow Su.
Chen Shou looked at Li Lingfeng, who was reclining on the couch and refused to take off the fan, and couldn't wait to step forward and kick her round buttocks, and then scolded: Your father has no opinion, you have a lot to do.
Of course, this matter is just thinking about it, he smiled shamelessly: "I have to let me test this matter, but the eunuchs of the North Division are also old foxes who have been immersed in it for many years, and there is no benefit, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help us do things." ”
Li Lingfeng's fan moved lightly to his chest, revealing phoenix eyes with a hint of coldness, and asked, "What do you want?" ”
"It's not what I want, it's what they want, it's nothing more than gold and silver jewelry, right?"
Li Lingfeng snorted coldly, turned his face sideways, and stared at Chen Shou outside for a moment. He is so handsome, with marked eyebrows and eyes, and his appearance is a mouthful of small white teeth when he smiles, clean and refreshing. No wonder my sister was deceived by him, the more she was angry.
Chen Shou also came a little angry, I'm here to save your eldest brother, what kind of attitude do you have.
He glared back unceremoniously, Li Lingfeng never expected this kid to be so bold, and he was a little dazed for a while, and he didn't have time to scold.
This hesitation is destined to fall behind, of course she can't settle accounts anymore, and snorted coldly: "You go to Steward Liu, he is in the capital now, don't be reluctant to spend money, the eunuchs of the North Division have a big appetite." ”
Chen Shouxin said that he had another chance to eat some kickbacks, where did he think that he was the fragrant gluttony in the eyes of the eunuchs of the Northern Division.
These four old goods are now discussing the use of Chen Shou. to fight against Yao Baobao, who is increasingly ignoring them.
A civil war with the eunuchs of the Northern Division is about to draw him in.
At this time, Chen Shou didn't know that he glanced at Li Lingfeng, who had a pink-faced face and angry eyes, and somehow made a grimace at her.
Li Lingfeng, who was still staring at her angrily, was suddenly surprised to find that Chen Shou was not only smiling, but also grimacing at her, before slowly exiting the palace.
She rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't blind, and that the childish action just now was done by this unscrupulous boy.
The crown princess, the princess of Xiliang, who was full of aura, was full of pride like a ball that was poked, angry, helpless and funny.
"This mallet!"
