Volume I: Painting Tang Chun Chapter 44: Keeping Li Han

The news that Heng Wangfu had moved into the princess's friend spread two days later.

However, Qingxi didn't care too much, her life went on as usual.

After Duanyang, the weather gradually became hotter, and she felt more and more lazy and reluctant to move, so as long as the palace was not summoned, she would not leave the palace.

said that it was a banquet for the Duanyang Festival, and she felt very bored. Prince Guang, who has been closed, was unsurprisingly absent from the Duanyang family banquet on the grounds of poor health, but this does not affect everyone's comings and goings. She swept her eyes, and sure enough, the men were carrying purses, she was a little unhappy, why were all those purses boutiques? I know that all the craftsmanship is good, and they are really all big and swaggering in a conspicuous place! She thought about it again, and breathed a sigh of relief for Xiao Yizheng, if he was allowed to wear his purse that was still lying in the wooden box, it would really damage his handsome and chic image. Or, if he were there, would he be wearing another purse?

She subconsciously shook her head, and the frequency of the fan in her hand unconsciously accelerated.

"Girl, I heard Sister Meng say that Miss Li in the Xiying Palace has made a lot of trouble for her in the past two days." As if she knew who she was thinking, Moon Shadow said it at the right time.

Qingxi paused, and the fan fan lightly pressed against her jaw. She asked softly, "Trouble her?" Why? ”

Moon Shadow shook her head. "I didn't elaborate, I just didn't care about mentioning this sentence."

Qingxi's hand began to slowly shake the fan again. Li Han has lived in the palace for three days, and she has never left the palace in the past three days, and has only come to her to thank Lanyuan once. Although she is not a peaceful and approachable person, embarrassing a female official should not be something that a woman like her would do.

"Girl, what are you going to do about Miss Li? Someone in the house ...... "Moon Shadow's words squeaked."

Qingxi felt tired of listening, so she added to herself: "Say that she is the confidante of His Royal Highness." ”

Moon Shadow's mouth was deflated, and her face was embarrassed, but she was even angrier than Qingxi.

Qingxi smiled: "Your Highness has left the mansion, have the rules in the mansion been relaxed?" ”

Moon Shadow showed her eyebrows slightly bent, puzzled. Why, the people who don't mention the rules and ignore the rules on weekdays start talking about the rules at this time?

Qingxi smiled, put the fan down, and ordered, "Go and invite Zhong Bo to come." ”

Seeing her expression, Moon Shadow knew she was serious.

Uncle Zhong was also a little surprised when he walked into Chaolan Garden, this was the first time the princess took the initiative to find him, and he didn't know what was going on.

Qingxi smiled warmly, but also got straight to the point: "Uncle Zhong, there is something I said directly, if it is not appropriate, you will always advise." ”

Zhong Bo humbly resigned: "The princess doesn't need to be so polite, but she tortures me." ”

"Miss Li was invited by me to live in the palace. She and His Royal Highness are indeed old acquaintances, but some rumors cannot be spread from the palace. For example, the relationship between His Royal Highness and Miss Li. ”

What kind of character Zhongbo is, as soon as he hears this, he will understand. "What the princess said is very true. Recently, there are indeed some people in the palace who have discussed in private, although there are also reminders, but they do not pay enough attention to it. Don't worry, princess, I will be strictly controlled. ”

A smile lingered on the corner of Qingxi's mouth, and he nodded: "Although His Highness is not here, the Hengwang Mansion cannot make mistakes." ”

Uncle Zhong hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "I think Your Highness and Miss Li are just friends. To put it mildly, I grew up watching His Highness, with His Highness's character, if he was really a so-called confidant with Miss Li, then maybe Miss Li would have lived in Xiying Hall a long time ago. ”

Qingxi frowned slightly between his eyebrows and glanced at Uncle Zhong.

Uncle Zhong looked calm.

Li Han could have lived in the Xiying Palace a long time ago? She doesn't really agree with this point of view. She remembered that Xiao Yizheng had told her that the royal family had been tilted since ancient times, and he was unwilling to involve himself, let alone a confidant. Not welcoming her into the house is not a kind of protection.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Uncle Zhong couldn't grasp her attitude, so he changed his tone and said in a low voice: "I also have one thing here, I want to ask the princess." ”

"Uncle Zhong, please speak."

"Tingmeng is now eighteen, and no one in her family has to worry about her life's affairs. There are also many big men in the mansion, and His Royal Highness was not in the mansion before, so this matter was delayed. Now that the princess is here, I am thinking about whether to ask the princess to be the master of the dream? He asked tentatively.

The corners of Qingxi's mouth moved, as if she was thinking seriously, and only said after a while: "Then what about listening to her own opinion?" ”

Zhong Bohan smiled: "How shy is my daughter's family, how can she take the initiative to mention it?" ”

"Is there a candidate for that uncle?"

"Tingmeng has also served His Royal Highness for many years, and this candidate is also a good choice. I think there should be people of the same age and a lot of prospects among the palace guards. However, it is still up to the princess to arrange. ”

Qingxi was silent for a while, "I have written down this matter, and I still have to listen to her own opinion." ”

She spent the next half of her days thinking about how to talk to Tingmeng, why did this princess still have to do the matter of protecting the media? It's a real concern. Speaking of which, she herself is still an "unmarried person".

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt, and complained with Xiao Yizheng. No, if it weren't for her, she would have been able to handle these things! But this man has not even sent back a word of oral instruction, has he received his letter? I wonder what happened to him in the southwest? Are things going well?

She stared at the clouds red with the setting sun with wide eyes, and she was a little distracted. Until Qing Song's smiling face appeared in front of her, she suddenly moved, as if she was frightened: "When did you come?" ”

Qing Song lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down beside her with a big grin. "When you're stupid, I'll be there."

Qingxi glanced at her, and then noticed that he was wearing a night suit. "What are you dressed for? Did you climb over the wall to get in? ”

Qingsong smiled: "I'm not as stupid as you, over the wall?" I don't have to fight. I'm Zhengda Guangming to go to the palace......" He deliberately pulled a long tone: "The main gate...... Came in. ”

Qingxi held his head and sighed: "Where are you playing?" ”

Qingsong patted her little head: "This emotion is not right!" The husband is traveling far away, so he is listless? Or is it because of the strange woman in the house? ”

Qingxi straightened his back and raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?" ”

Qing Song smiled faintly: "Since you have decided to keep her in the mansion, you have your own considerations. ”

"Does Daddy know?"

"I know, but I don't know what's going on. That's why they still think that Li Han is also your friend. I think I did the right thing to do by telling her about her in the first place. ”

After Li Han provoked and left on the street that day, Qingsong walked quickly, but not because he was afraid that Qingxi would ask him questions in depth, but because he went to investigate Li Han's situation. In order not to expose himself, he hired different people to follow her whereabouts far away all the way, until the Shangdu branch of the Changfeng Dart Bureau.

Qingxi nodded, frowned and asked him, "What are you doing today?" She looked at the sky outside the house, and said, "From Dali Temple?" Haven't had dinner yet? ”

Qing Song smiled faintly: "I'm busy with official business, so here, naturally there is something to do." I just asked Moon Shadow to prepare to go, and I'll barely eat the food in the palace. ”

Qingxi glanced at him: "What's the matter?" ”

Qing Song lightened his voice, his expression became serious, and he said seriously: "My sister-in-law has arrived in the southwest, and it is said that he has been meeting friends recently. My father and I analyzed that he should be deployed in the southwest. But today, in Dali Temple, there was an incident in which a prisoner died in prison, and it was the southwest officials involved in corruption brought back by his father before. On the surface, it seems that he commits suicide in fear of sin. Do you remember that day when you were nosy in the beautiful building, and I happened to be with His Highness? ”

Qingxi nodded.

"That day, His Highness actually asked me to pay more attention to the officials in prison who were suspected of corruption. Although he didn't say much, I felt that there were big fish behind those officials. Now the situation is obvious, and the big fish behind it may be Lord Guang. And the prison of Dali Temple is heavily guarded, and in this case, there are still people who have been killed. Do you know what that means? ”

Qingxi pondered: "Prince Guang's ability cannot be underestimated, and he can't sit still and start to do it in an all-round way. ”

"Therefore, although His Highness has been deployed in the southwest, it should not be so easy." Qing Song took a deep breath: "But this is the Holy Court to worry about, and you don't need to give advice." And the purpose of me telling you this matter is to keep Li Han in the palace in the near future. ”

Qingxi seemed to be puzzled.

Qingsong's eyes were deep, he looked straight at Qingxi, and solemnly explained: "I don't doubt the safety of King Heng's Mansion at all, but once Prince Guang makes up his mind, he will be ruthless and not moral." His Royal Highness King Heng is already his enemy now, if he angers the palace, or thinks that you are useful, then having Li Han by your side will provide multiple layers of protection. ”

Qingxi was stunned, thinking carefully about the connections involved.

Qing Song's words continued: "Li Han's Changfeng Dart Bureau has a lot of eyeliner, although it is a non-governmental organization, it is not as armed as the imperial court, but it also has the advantage of being flexible and unimpeded. She is in the palace, and the Changfeng Dart Bureau will not ignore her safety. So with her, the palace will be safer. ”

Qingxi was a little nervous when Qingsong said this, and his face was a little solemn.

Qing Song's expression was relaxed, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his tone softened: "You don't need to be too nervous, I'm prepared." If my father knew that I was telling you this, he would definitely be punished. ”

Qingxi's face was still serious and serious: "Brother, according to your analysis, the person in Dali Temple was killed because King Guang didn't want him to speak again, right?" ”

Clear and loose jaw head.

Qingxi locked her eyebrows and did not speak again.

At this time, the voice of Moon Shadow came from outside the house: "Princess, Miss Li asks to see." ”

Qingsong glanced at Qingxi and said in a low voice, "Is it so godly?" As soon as she talked about her, she arrived? ”

Qingxi pursed her lips and said softly, "Please let her in." ”

After Li Han entered the house, he first saluted Qingxi, and even noticed Qingsong sitting on the side.

Qingxi introduced: "This is my brother. ”

"I know, the world-famous Tanhualang, Ling Qingsong." Li Han looked at him and continued to say calmly: "But this dress, I don't seem to be easy when I look into the palace. ”

The corners of Qingsong's slightly hooked lips twitched instantly, but he still smiled heartily.
