"You, you, okay, I'll leave you more food in the future."

Li Ru shook his head and continued: "This second mountain is a life crisis, Li'er has always been known for her beauty and wisdom, and the articles and poems she wrote are even more outstanding, and she is more talented than the literati in the palace, I don't know how many ministers' sons favor it, and their admiration is overflowing, at this time, if a person suddenly pops out, and it is a rough person with no foundation, do you say that Li'er will like it, and the sons of those ministers want the life of Gongsun Jian." ”

"But didn't Your Majesty say that you wouldn't tell the people in the capital?"

"It's just that I won't tell it for the time being, and I don't need to tell it, when King Ming secretly observes for a while, he will naturally release the news."

Li said: "If the first two mountains are overturned, there is a small mountain behind, and there is no need to worry, so what does it matter if you let Li'er be a concubine at that time." ”

Lu Dongshan said helplessly: "Gongsun Jian has a long way to go, not only to pass Prince Mingqing, but also to get out of many dangers in order to marry the little county lord, it is really difficult. ”

Li Ru shook his head, "Li'er is not the ultimate goal, my purpose is that in the process of climbing the mountain, how many people will make a move on him, all those who make a move on him should be written down, and order all the Wen Renzong of the Zhenfu Division to thoroughly investigate whether it has anything to do with that person!" ”

"Your Majesty, this is ......"

Lu Dongshan suddenly understood, there is a powerful figure in the court who is now standing in a very dangerous position, and he is suspected of being ready to move recently, but there is no evidence, once Gongsun Jian is announced, the person behind the scenes will definitely investigate Gongsun Jian first, although Gongsun Jian's deeds are not secret, but only more than six officials can be transferred out!

Once the people behind the scenes knew that Gongsun Jian was an indispensable figure in the Zhongzhou Army, and knew his relationship with Yu Youjun, now Yu Youjun was rushing to Lianghuai, if he secretly captured Gongsun Jian, and then turned against Li Zizhen, to threaten Yu Youjun, and shake the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty with Li Zizhen.

Lu Dongshan is a very smart person, and he will know the secret with a little mention, Your Majesty is to use the little county lord as the fishing line, and the Gongsun sword as the bait, fishing for big fish in the middle of the court!

first secretly covered up Gongsun Jian's identity and sent him to Prince Mingqing's mansion, and then let King Ming spread the news, which will definitely cause a sensation in the world at that time, so that the doubts of Gongsun Jian's fishing can be washed away, so that the people behind the scenes can't figure out what Gongsun Jian's existence is intended to be, giving that person the illusion that Gongsun Jian is here to get married.

Then the rebels that the man colluded with will definitely put pressure on him to capture Gongsun Jian and send him to the front line!

At that time, Li Ru is secretly watching everything, and it is also under Li Ruye's control, whoever makes a move will be investigated, as long as he touches a top official, he can dig out the person behind the scenes.

Lu Dongshan let out a sigh, "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

It's a pity that the little county lord suffered, and for the heart of the emperor's family, he lost a lifetime of happiness.

Li Ru chuckled, "Gongsun Jian really let Wang Zhangjiao say it right, it is indeed my deputy general of the Great Zhou, he is here to catch the pests of the Great Zhou for me, and it is not aggrieved for Lian'er to be his concubine." ”

"But Your Majesty, what if Gongsun Jian didn't survive the assassination, or if an inconsequential assassin really killed Gongsun Jian?"

Lu Dongshan asked, there are many sons of ruthless officials in this capital, most of them have not learned the way of the older generation of officials, but have learned a lot of insidious and cunning methods, as long as someone blocks their way to soaring, they will not hesitate to take action.

Li Ru shook his head and said indifferently: "Gongsun Jian has an eight-rank master by his side, and he is a master himself, and he is also a battle-hardened general, whether it is a single fight or a group attack, I believe he can cope with it, if he can't cope with it, he deserves to die, even if he dies, it can be regarded as I want, in the capital, there are people who have the ability to kill an eight-rank and an eight-rank or even more than eight-grade, just a few, directly exclude those gentlemen, they don't have that ability, This makes it easier for me to find out what is really happening behind the scenes. ”

Li Ru's tone was flat, but Lu Dongshan was in a cold sweat, he was already extremely optimistic about Gongsun Jian, but in the eyes of His Majesty, Gongsun Jian was just a tool.

Lu Dongshan swallowed his saliva, "Do you want to send another eight-rank master, so that you can kill two eight-rank masters, isn't it ......?"

"Father-in-law Lu, you have a lot to say today."

Li Ru squinted at Lu Dongshan, "There is only Song Qingming by his side, I'm tired, you should retreat first!" ”

Lu Dongshan knelt down and stepped back, not daring to show the Son of Heaven with his back, until he knelt out of the door before turning to leave, he sighed faintly, he was originally as light as water, only when he saw Gongsun Jian did he feel a little relaxed and comfortable, but now he ......

There is a way that is ruthless and the most emperor's family.

In the imperial study, Li Ru sat and muttered beside the case: "Wang Zhangjiao, if Gongsun Jian does not die at my hands, he will not be regarded as killed by me." ”

The carriage paused, and Gongsun Jian, who was already asleep in the car, suddenly woke up, only to hear the butler's whispers of mosquitoes and flies outside the curtain.

"Gongsun Gongzi, we're almost here, you can tidy up your outfit for the time being, don't leave a bad impression."

Gongsun Jian said "um", he secretly opened the curtain of the carriage a gap, through the gap to see more and more people on the street, the shouting of the peddlers' pawns also came into his ears, this north city seems to be not much different from the south city, the south city does not allow merchants to gather, only exist in the Beijing family compound, but the north city is more down-to-earth, the luxurious houses on both sides stand there quietly, and many vendors in the open space on the street do not violate the river water, they drink to their heart's content, selling all kinds of Beijing snacks, I am not afraid of loud noises to the nobles in the house.

The road became more and more crowded, and after a while, there were significantly fewer vendors on both sides, but the people were still in a constant stream of people.

Judging from the clothes of these people, all of them are extravagant, and most of these people who come and go are the sons or ladies of whose families go out shopping with their maids.

Gongsun Jian poked his head out, "It's almost there?" ”

"That's it ahead."

"This northern city feels more fireworks, not as lifeless as the southern city, Uncle Butler, why is this?"

The housekeeper tilted his head slightly, looking at the familiar faces coming and going on both sides of the street, he whispered: "Our prince is a strange person, he loves to have fun with the people, originally the prince wanted to buy a house in the east and west cities, but the mansions in the east and west cities are generally too small, and it is not realistic to rebuild, the prince should know that the land in the capital is expensive, in addition to the original house, if there is not an official document from the Ministry of Imperial Works, even if you are a relative of the emperor, you can not build a house privately." ”

According to the statistics of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, as of last spring, there were 2 million households in the capital, which is almost comparable to the sum of all the prefectures and cities in Beijiang Province combined. Therefore, every inch of land here has been personally measured by the Ministry of Industry, and every shop and residence must be built with the approval of the Ministry of Industry, so as to "make the best use of things" to the greatest extent. I heard that there was a nouveau riche from other places, who wanted to set up a house in the capital, and began to build a house after getting the construction documents within a radius of 20 zhang.

Gongsun Jian still knew a lot about these things, but he was still very puzzled, and asked, "But what do these things have to do with the difference between the north and south cities?" ”

"Gongsun Gongzi doesn't know, although the north and south are rich areas, but most of the southern city is the residence of the official lord in the former city, and the northern city is the residence of some rich people, simply put, the southern city symbolizes power, and the northern city symbolizes wealth. Most of these wealthy people in Beicheng are businessmen, and they have a lot of careful thoughts, rather than going to the east and west cities to buy goods, it is better to get them themselves, so they totaled, since they did not dare to build private shops, they each set up mobile stalls in front of their respective doors, selling some of their own family properties, in order to meet the demand. Over time, the peddlers and pawns in the east and west cities also came over, coming early in the morning and leaving in the evening, the rich merchants saw that there were not many of them, and they were also very conscious, so they turned a blind eye, and slowly became more popular. ”

Gongsun Jian felt a little funny after hearing this, this businessman is really mercenary, the Ministry of Industry has made Beicheng a quiet and elegant place for these rich people, but in the eyes of the merchants, it is still for profit, there is land and silver, they don't care about what is quiet and elegant, and only when there is silver to earn is worthy of the mansion purchased by seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver.

Gongsun Jian said with a smile: "Settling here, the prince is also a wonderful person." ”

"Who says it's not, the prince can tidy up and go to the prince's mansion."

Gongsun Jian never cared about the image, but after all, he still had to pay attention to the prince of the current dynasty, he spat and smoothed his somewhat messy hair, and jumped off the carriage.

The housekeeper glanced at the young man who had jumped out and shook his head gently, "It's not a matter of tiring up the boat and the dust, you can wipe off the greasy face, and I will take my son to wash my face when I enter the mansion." ”

Gongsun Jian smiled awkwardly, "There is Uncle Steward." ”

"It's all within the scope of things, presumably the prince doesn't want to face the prince so embarrassed."

……

……

Gongsun Jian followed the housekeeper into this prince's mansion, after the wall, there is a cave, there are many maids coming and going in the two corridors, one by one graceful and elegant, casually placed in other places that are all strange women sought after by everyone, but the prince can only bow his head to the housekeeper and Gongsun Jian salute, and dare not look at it with his eyes.

There is also a towering giant tree in the middle of the corridor, there is a gurgling stream next to the tree, there are several brocade tails playing happily in the stream, there are countless bird's nests on the giant tree, all kinds of feathers form colorful leaves, it is very beautiful.

After the housekeeper entered the mansion, the upright body was also slightly bent, even if there was no prince in the house, with respect, he turned back to Gongsun Jian's head to signal, his pace sped up a lot, and reminded softly: "After this" green water long flow "is the real Ming Wangfu, although Ling Zun and the prince are old friends, but still have to act according to the rules, the mansion is also for His Majesty's nurse, often walk in the house, after seeing must bow down." ”

Gongsun Jian was silent on the surface, and his heart was already stormy, no wonder the housekeeper has always respected himself as "Gongzi", the son of this prince's old friend must be the identity arranged by Lu Dongshan, and even the one who passed through the palace agreed, and he had to collude with the prince to hide it from everyone, what does this mean?

"Gongsun Gongzi, can you hear what the little one says clearly?"

Gongsun Jian came back to his senses, "When I came, my father told me that I must follow the customs of the countryside and no longer be willful, I will definitely act according to the rules in the palace, and not add the slightest trouble to the palace housekeeper, right?" ”

Gongsun Jian said and took out a silver ticket from his arms, stepped forward to get close to the butler, and stuffed it into his cuffs, "It is also hard work for the butler to bring me here, and a little caution is not respectful." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's all within the scope of the matter, if the prince knows......"

"How would the prince know, just when I asked the housekeeper to drink."

The butler rolled up his sleeves and coughed lightly, "This wine is a bit extravagant, if Gongsun Gongzi has any difficulties in the palace in the future, just let me know." ”
