0372 Humble delivery, Jiao Niang entry
When Wu Youyi left the palace of the acting king, Li Tong asked his family to pack some gifts and fill a carriage, and then gave them out as gifts for his wife and children.
Although they are only partial relatives, there are not many men and women in their Li family who are still alive, and a little expression is the attitude that he, the future patriarch, should have. And recently, there are too many gifts at home, and they can't push it off, and it's troublesome to sort out and store, some of them are directly distributed to the government officials, and the rest is to deal with these people's exchanges.
Wu Youyi saw this scene, and he was also pleasantly surprised in his heart, he was ready to return empty-handed, but he didn't expect the acting king to be so polite.
Regardless of the value of the gifts, the important thing is this heart, as soon as he thought of this, he made a special trip to let the carriage drive through the front of the Wei Wangdi on the opposite street, and then turned into Shangshanfang after crossing the heavenly street, and passed in front of the Liang Wangdi, it is inevitable that there is a feeling of raising eyebrows.
After sending Wu Youyi away, Li Tong instructed his family to prepare a ceremony, and after being at home for a few days, he also had to go out to visit his aunt, Princess Taiping. If this matter is to be safe, it is naturally not possible to rely on force alone.
After Li Tong moved into the palace of Jishanfang, he was only separated from his aunt's residence by a heavenly street, and although the distance between the residences was shortened, the relationship between them seemed to be a little estranged. After the end of the lent period, he kept doing a full set of plays and did not go out, and his aunt, Princess Taiping, did not come to the palace, which was very different from the usual situation of casual exchanges.
No matter how dull he was, Li Tong realized that there was a little sprout, and he felt that he was almost right to act, so he first visited Princess Taiping after going out.
Turning the heavenly street into Shangshanfang, and coming to the palace of Princess Taiping, Li Tong got off the horse and climbed the steps, and was about to walk into the gate, when several palace guards rushed out of the side porch, and did not speak, but looked at Li Tong and his party with a little vigilance.
"You're a newcomer, and you don't even know the king?"
Yang Siqiao took a step forward and crossed in front of the king.
At this time, another government official on the other side hurriedly walked over, pointed at those palace guards and scolded: "Clumsy-eyed Qiu Ba, don't even know the king? The king goes back and forth to the house, and there is no prohibition on entering and exiting, and there is no need to inspect the post. β
As he spoke, he bowed his waist and crossed his hands and said to Li Tong: "Please forgive the king, there have been a lot of guests in the palace recently, and the access control has been slightly regulated......
Li Tong only nodded after hearing this, and glanced at the guests waiting to be received in the left and right compartments inside the door, looked at the official and asked, "Then can you enter now?" Is Her Royal Highness the Princess in the Mansion? β
After hearing this, the government official nodded, turned around and walked towards the guide, and wiped a handful of cold sweat on his forehead without a trace.
"SaburoγWhy are you even so haggard? Alang's stupid thing, after a few days of coming and going, he didn't talk to me! Although it is a new thing, but the old man is far away, why is it so hurtful! β
In the hall, Princess Taiping saw Li Tong walking in, her expression changed slightly, she stepped forward to look him up and down, and then sighed and said.
Li Tong recuperated at home for a few days, although his energy and physical strength had recovered, but he was hungry for a month, and he still lost a small amount of weight.
Facing Princess Taiping's concerned gaze, he sighed: "Although I have a shallow relationship with the imperial examination, it is inevitable that my ancestors will receive it now. But in front of my aunt, there is no need to hide, but in addition to the injury, the rest of the fasting month is really tormenting. Such a decaying state, shallow for a few days, before daring to come to the door. β
Princess Taiping sighed a few times after hearing this, and inevitably recalled her old story of love and injury, pulled Li Tong to the inner hall, and turned her head and ordered: "Quickly prepare the old habits of the king in the kitchen, and tell the front hall that you will not be polite to the guests today." β
After sitting down in the inner hall, Princess Taiping couldn't help but ask a few warm questions, and was relieved to make sure that Li Tong was fine.
Li Tong didn't think that his aunt's concern was deliberately contrived, people's emotions were originally complicated, and after a few years of contact and getting along, there must be feelings for each other.
As for some estrangement recently, it should be caused by the kind of strong personality in it. The stronger the inner person, the less good at dealing with the changes in the way people around them come about. This has nothing to do with the level of identity, there is no class reunion in the world that is not embarrassing.
After some greetings, Li Tong said again: "When I came to the house today, I still have to explain a little bit about the events of the previous day." This time, King Jian'an became the governor of the history, which is really unexpected. β
When Princess Taiping heard this, her face was not very good-looking, and her disappointment was undisguised, and she sighed: "Yes, I really didn't expect it." Such a major matter was decided so quickly! β
Thinking of this incident, Princess Taiping felt a lot of chagrin in her heart, she actually got the news quite early, when the King of Wei and they were still discussing in tandem, they had actually learned that there would be such a thing from the mouth of the concubine Wu Youji, and Princess Taiping also had an idea.
The first person she went to look for was not Li Tong, after all, Li Tong was still in the temple of filial piety to the emperor at that time, and it was inconvenient to see him. Instead, she went to find her uncle, Wu Youning, the king of Jianchang, as soon as possible, but Wu Youning only deduced that King Wei and King Liang had already made a plan, and pointed out the name problem faced by King Ding's appointment as governor Shi.
The communication with the Wu family was fruitless, and when Li Tong had just finished fasting, Princess Taiping naturally wanted to find Li Tong to discuss as soon as possible. But it was also too much miscellaneous thinking, coupled with the gossip of Wu Youning and the people around him, so he decided to pass the word through his eldest son Xue Chongxun, hoping that Li Tong would come to discuss with her.
Originally, in her opinion, the current dispute between the court was already stalemate, and with the addition of such a new variable as the king of the dynasty, this matter would definitely not be decided too early, but she didn't expect her mother to have extraordinary means, and pulled back Wu Youyi, who was difficult for all parties to refuse, and ended the matter straightforwardly.
Seeing Princess Taiping's expression like this, Li Tong took out the transcript that was shown to Wu Youyi in the palace just now, and continued: "After the arraignment a few days ago, I made a plan with the palace staff. Instead of falling in love with the empty position, it is better to avoid the position and recommend talents, become the king, and show your ambitions. β
Princess Taiping took the book and made a list of it, Mingyan's face was cloudy, and after a while, she lowered her head and patted her forehead and sighed: "Be cautious, you can think like this, it really makes my aunt feel ashamed!" If my aunt and nephew can deliver the letter in time and discuss it carefully, how can this person be left behind? Alas, it's me who narrowly calculated...... Yes, King Jian'an entered the mansion today to worship you, I know that you have old grudges between the two, and he has also carried gifts on Fang Street before, has he given you too much trouble? β
"King Jian'an, this person is still relatively easy to speak. King Ding can't be continued, and the old intention is forwarded to him, which can be regarded as resolving some grievances. β
A favor is sold by two families, but with his aunt, Li Tong is still relatively frank, even if he doesn't say it, Princess Taiping will definitely be able to think about it, but she will think that he is too shrewd.
"But you really want it? Alas, what a pity! I know that you have been here for a long time, and it is too hard work, but you are forced by human favors, and you want to make such a long retreat! β
Princess Taiping raised the book in her hand and said with a look of regret. If King Ding still has a chance, Li Tong retreats by himself, she will be sincerely grateful.
But now, it is necessary to weigh the pros and cons based on the pros and cons, and feel that Wu Youyi is not worth paying so much. No matter how big and inappropriate the governor is, with this big name, he can gather many people.
Li Tong didn't hide this, and said directly: "I'm not retreating, King Jian'an has promised me that he will recommend me to join the two ya." β
"Really? How could he? How could it be ......"
When Princess Taiping heard this, her eyes widened, and she asked three times in a row, looking at Li Tong in disbelief.
However, she also knew that this nephew was strange and had a serious attitude, so he would definitely not joke about this kind of thing, and before Li Tong continued to explain, she couldn't help but laugh at her, pointed at Li Tong and shook her head: "You, you!" Even if King Jian'an is a little clumsy, he ...... again and again Alas, I don't know what to say about you! β
Although Li Tong also smiled, he still forced a straight face and said: "Don't say that, King Jian'an has his own standards for doing things inside and outside, having a deep experience, and doing things for others. As for me, being able to take care of me is naturally very emotional. β
When Princess Taiping heard this, she bent over with laughter, swung her fists, and beat the case. After a while, she suppressed her smile, raised her head and lifted a few wisps of hair on her forehead, looked at Li Tong Zhengse and said, "So, you have decided to be cautious?" β
Li Tong nodded after hearing this: "But whether it will be successful or not, it is still uncertain." β
"Now that you've decided, I won't say anything more. Many troubles in the early years, now I can walk safely, and I am confident in your ability to be cautious and adaptable! β
Princess Taiping took another deep breath and said, "King Jian'an is willing to speak out, and of course my aunt will help you achieve this!" β
"If there is more help from my aunt, then this matter will be more certain!"
Hearing his aunt's statement, Li Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and decided that the time would be right later, to see if he could fulfill his aunt's wish and arrange a good position for Wang Wuyouji. If Wu Youji is pulled over again, then they can be regarded as having initially reached a state of Li Wuxiao's confluence, which should also be a situation that his grandmother is happy to see.
But Princess Taiping obviously had another idea, and after a pause, she pointed at Li Tong and said: "Although my Ah Lang is clumsy, he has also been supported by grain and rice for many years, and now he has lived in your house for a long time, there should always be a plan for this matter!" β
Li Tong's expression stiffened slightly after hearing this, and he was a little resistant to using his relatives as a bargaining chip, so he said: "Auntie's mind, of course I understand." So I don't dare to say it, it's really a young girl, her character has not become dignified, and she still needs to be ......"
"If that's all, then it doesn't have to be said. What is the nature of my lady, doesn't your aunt know more than you, don't bother you men to gossip, since I love this lady very much, I will naturally tolerate her and raise her! β
Princess Taiping talked about this matter again, and her tone was much more determined: "If you think that your cousin is unbearable, then you think to yourself if you owe it to your aunt?" Should I teach him more diligently in the future? β
Hearing that his aunt's words had already reached this point, and thinking about Xue Chongxun's full licking dog, Li Tong said: "I have no objection to this matter, my aunt can discuss it with her mother." The only thing to ask for, the young lady was born miserable, and now she is so short and calm, even if it is in love, I don't want her to be wronged in the slightest, can you say it in order? The quick decision of the big event will inevitably make her immature heart stunned......"
"You don't have to worry about this, that lady is my flesh and blood when she enters my door. As for that clumsy man, send it to your house, just ask him not to disturb people! β
At this time, the princess's family also sent hot meals, and Princess Taiping personally distributed the dishes, and pointed to Li Tong and sighed: "What people have, they don't know how to cherish it!" You hurt yourself, but you don't know how much heartache others see in their eyes! β
