Looking at the floors, the spring mountains are stacked three. Banquet of Ministers (1)

Li Qi finally looked forward to the two of them being able to sit down. So he asked someone to cook hot wine and a few side dishes, but he felt that it was not enough, so he cooked it himself, and burned a plate of shredded potatoes, a plate of cucumber slices, a bowl of bamboo shoots and salted meat, two large pots of mutton soup, a large handful of fried soybeans, and more than a dozen pieces of flower cake cake.

Li Qi was born skillful, and later fell in love with Li Xiang, who was born in grass mustard, and voluntarily married, putting aside the high-quality Qiluo with big fish and meat, and a pair of hands from not touching the spring water to being able to cook a lot of good dishes, among them, how much this woman has suffered, about only she knows.

Although this woman is over thirty years old, her appearance is excellent, and she is a well-known lady in the entire imperial capital before she leaves the cabinet. She gave birth to a beautiful face, phoenix eyes and red lips, and a face as white as milk; is also virtuous, gentle and virtuous, and is a typical virtuous wife.

It's just that the fly in the ointment is that this woman has a narrow scar on her forehead, which greatly affects her appearance. Such a beautiful woman should not have such flaws.

Li Xiang has been the prime minister of the dynasty for more than ten years, and he is used to the days of fine clothes and fine food, and then looking at the vulgar meals that Li Qi learned in order to please him, he always feels that it is not very pleasing to the eye, as if reminding him of the once lowly years.

But he couldn't say anything in front of Li Yangguan, so he had to make a show, put down two chopsticks, and never repeated. Li Qishi lowered his head and was silent.

Li Yangguan was afraid that she would be sad because of her father's actions, so he stuffed a few mouthfuls of rice in an exaggerated gulp, poured a pot of rice into the mutton soup, stirred well, put down the chopsticks, picked up the spoon containing the soup, and gulped down to eat. As he ate, he poured a plate of shredded potatoes into a basin and scooped them all to eat. After a while, a pot of mutton soup bibimbap bottomed out. As if he was not satisfied, he picked up his chopsticks again, took the plate of verdant cucumber slices, and sent the soup and water into his stomach. As if he didn't find it too pleasant, he paused, snatched the flask of hot wine, and drank it all in three or two gulps.

Then his eyes fell on the pot of mutton soup in front of Li Xiang. Li Yang closed his hands, sent the pot of soup to his eyes, poured all the fried soybeans and bamboo shoots and bacon into the soup, and devoured the dozen or so flower cake cakes.

Li Xiang frowned slightly.

Li Qi's eyes widened and he looked at him in surprise, for fear that he would eat so quickly that his stomach would burst. Li Yangguan ate and drank to his heart's content, but poured himself a cup of tea, slowly drank the tea in the cup, hid his face and breathed a long sigh of relief, and gently took out a square towel from his sleeve to wipe the soup at the corner of his mouth.

When this series of actions was completed, he looked at Li Xiang squarely, but said: "Dad has been an official for several years, and I am not used to this mountain and wild food, but I love to eat it." My mother understands my taste anyway, and in order to let me eat a hot meal, she is so intimate. Anyway, he smiled lightly, a kind of undisguised maintenance. Li Qishi finally smiled happily.

Li Xiang frowned, and wanted to reprimand him in his heart. just considering that Nan Zixiao is now in power, and he will rely more on his son in the future; Thinking that this son was born close to the Li Qi clan, he had to deliberately put on a face, and blamed with a smile: "Ah Xun, you are already the commander of the garrison army, and you will be a person under one person in the future, how can you be so vulgar like a villager?" Today, if you eat these lowly meals like these ordinary people, how will you not be laughed at tomorrow in the court? ”

When Li Yangguan heard this, he just put the wine cup in his palm to enjoy it, and said casually: "It's just, father, I was born in a mustard." ”

He paused, and then smiled: "My father is in a high position, and he can't get used to this ordinary meal?" So what do you want? ”

Then he was extremely cold: "Or, do you want to taste the emperor's food?" ”

"Li Xun!" Li Xiang seemed to have been exposed, and he burst into applause in an instant.

Li Yangguan was not shocked but smiled, looking leisurely and complacent. In the court, he dared to speak out, not afraid of the powerful, but at home he was the opposite; He put away the righteous and awe-inspiring look, and aimed the sharp thorn in front of him at the person who should be the closest to him.

Li Xiangdao: "You go down first." So Li Qishi hurriedly cleaned up the dishes on the table, glanced at Li Yangguan worriedly, and turned to leave.

Li Yangguan waited for Li Qi's to leave, and the footsteps gradually faded away, before he suddenly let out a sneer: "Say it!" ”

"Is that the way you talk to your father?" Li Xiangheng's eyebrows were cold.

"No need to pretend, father!" Li Yangguan slowly rubbed the small and delicate wine jug in his hand, and felt the texture on it with his fingertips, so as to hide the chill in his eyes. "The rush of the night called me back because he wanted to treat me to a hot meal, right?"

Li Xiang finally put away his smile and said coldly: "Li Xun, do you know what is wrong?" ”

Li Yangguan smiled and asked, "What is the crime?" ”

Suddenly there was silence, and the pins around were discerning.

"Presumptuous!" Li Xiang finally couldn't hold back the already stiff smile anymore, and let out a loud cry, and his hand slammed on the table.

Li Yangguan sneered, only looked at him silently, and didn't say much.

"You say, did you put your sister A-Ning in the cold palace?" Li Xiang didn't dare to look at Li Yangguan's face. Li Yangguan has been like a stranger to him since he accepted the second concubine room, even if he gave him a little thin noodles in the court, but as soon as he got off the early court, he deliberately buried himself in work, and used the late return as an excuse to stagger the time with him.

He tried to establish his authority as the head of the Li Mansion several times, but Li Yangguan was the "head of the Seven Princes", and his own lord built the Gongzi Palace for him, so after a few quarrels, Li Yangguan completely lived in the Gongzi Palace.

What's more, it's like the lord of the country applying for a transfer to garrison the frontier, as the commander of the garrison, even the imperial capital rarely comes back.

Of course, Li Xiang was unwilling, but he was not easy to say anything.

Only this time it's different. Li Ning is the only concubine of Nanshang Wang Xun, even if she was only born to a concubine and her status is still low, but she has been a pair with Nanshang Wang for so many years, who dares to guarantee that one day Nanshang Wang will not be tempted by her and make her queen? It's really not good, she is in the palace, he still has so many daughters, stuff a few more into the palace, let her help take advantage of it, and don't worry that she won't be able to be the ruler of this Nanshang in the future.

But as soon as Li Yangguan made such a disturbance, A-Ning entered the cold palace, and maybe this Southern Shang Wang Xun would be angry with him. He couldn't figure out what kind of envoy could be more important than having a favorite concubine in their family? Even if A-Ning is ignorant, he is just an envoy! He let people solve it secretly, and compared to other countries, he didn't dare to care much about the national strength of Nanshang.

But who let this stinky boy bump into him suddenly, not to mention, he also brought the king of Nanshang! This time, A-Ning's movements were unobstructed, and he couldn't wash it off when he jumped into the Yellow River! was also broken by a crazy woman, and he broke his idea of taking this opportunity to fight for power with the emperor!

Li Yangguan was asked by Li Xiang like this, and he didn't feel ashamed at all. He was used to seeing the faces of the ladies of the Li Mansion.

At a young age, Li Ning dared to frame others, cut the cheeks of the maids, and drugged the slaves, and the methods were much more vicious than ordinary women. She has a beautiful and quiet face, and only in front of the weak will her hateful and terrifying face be revealed.

So he replied lightly: "Yes, he intends to murder the envoy, his heart is sinister, how can he be placed in front of His Majesty?" ”

Li Xiang knew that Li Yangguan was not used to this kind of thing, but he was very unconvinced, and he wanted to suppress Li Yangguan's upright and gentlemanly style. So he sorted out the words that had been held in his stomach for a long time, and told them all: "Maybe Ah Ning accidentally knocked the envoy into the pool and was trying to save him?" ”

"Maybe that woman held a grudge against A-Ning and deliberately wanted to harm her, but she fell into it and almost drowned herself?"

"The ancients had a saying: 'If a person is not a sage or sage, he can do nothing', an envoy, how can you be willing to let Your Majesty punish your sister heavily? Presumably A-Ning has also learned a lesson because of this, you quickly go to Nanshang Wang Xun to save your sister out, her arms are broken, which can cause Nanshang Wang Xun's guilt and pity, so that you may be able to become a concubine. ”

Li Yangguan still only cared about fiddling with the wine cup in front of him, and didn't take Li Xiang's words as one thing at all. After Li Xiang finished speaking, he said slowly with a mean smile on his face: "Keep her out?" ”

Li Xiang always felt that Li Yangguan's tone was not quite right. But he didn't know how to respond, so he had to bite the bullet, resist the discomfort in his heart, and then continued: "Of course! A Ning has grown up since he was a child, such a good girl can't be destroyed in the deep palace. ”

Good girl? From a small to a big? Not to mention how obvious Li Ning's inferior roots are, he has followed his father all the way since he was a child, can he not know how obsessed his father is with power? Come to think of it, since he was a child, this man has not fulfilled the slightest bit of his duties as a father. It is not ashamed to say these nonsense.

So Li Yangguan pretended to be serious and said: "But this is Your Majesty's will, and if the order is changed overnight, won't it damage Your Majesty's prestige?" ”

"Your Majesty is still young and ignorant, are you also ignorant?" Li Xiang twisted his beard and criticized in a good way: "One day husband and wife are one hundred days, and one hundred years can be repaired in the same boat." He Nanshang Wang Xun will always regret it one day. ”

What do you regret? Do you regret that you were blind and married a vicious woman with an uneasy heart? Li Yangguan thought secretly.

It's just that he still said faintly: "Then, the life or death of a country's envoys is insignificant?" ”

Li Xiang didn't hesitate: "Don't say that she didn't die!" It's that she's really dead, dead here, you know: if it's not my race, its heart will be different! Even for the sake of NCB's current momentum, their country does not dare to make a fuss about it! ”

It turned out that it was using the Nanshang Kingdom as a shield fox and fake tiger power? Li Yangguan raised his eyebrows.

Thinking about it like this, my father is really not afraid of killing Su Duxue, will Northern Qin come to attack with heavy troops? Su Duxue is the "holy woman" of Northern Qin and the head of the six wise women, and the four countries should be treated with courtesy...... How capable is he, Li Xiang, who dares to decide the life and death of this woman!

There was no name in his heart, and he didn't care that there was anything wrong, he just thought about it, the demure and gentle woman who played in the night market together, it turned out that at that time, she really almost died. The sobs of the woman in the arms by the pool came to my heart at some point, and kept lingering in my ears and spreading.

All limbs are cold.

It was as if my heart was sad.

So he sneered coldly: "Father has such a big face, do you know who it is?" dared to say a word to determine her life and death. ”

Li Xiang smiled and said nonchalantly: "What can it matter?" Could it be that she could still be the head of the six wise womenβ€”"

"The daughter of the king with a different surname, Su Xiao, the lord of Northern Qin!" Li Yang was very concerned about the chaos, and his tone was naturally impulsive. Unexpectedly, Li Xiang's smile suddenly froze on his face, his mouth was open, and he was speechless!

Li Yangguan lowered his head and played with the cup in his hand, admiring the carefully carved and pondered picture of the pine branch spring bird on it. I thought that the pine branch was false, and the golden branch was true; The spring finch is fake, the pheasant is real.

It is ironic that a person like my father who tends to be inflammatory, but uses such a pattern.

So I poured myself another glass of wine, drank it slowly, and calmed down a chaotic heart.

Li Xiang wiped his face, and couldn't hold back the stiff smirk on his face, he suppressed his throat and said in a low voice: "But seriously? ”

Li Yangguan squinted at him, smiling, and he was all smiling. The mouth was steady: "Presumably your spy also got the words of Miss Shusan." I personally rescued people, how can there be any fakes? ”

Li Xiang's face darkened again.

He couldn't even hold on to the edge of the table, and his voice trembled, "Go on." ”

is also a tacit acquiescence, the fact that he has installed spies in the palace.

Li Yangguan once served as a first-class guard with a knife in the palace, and of course he knew how many rules there were in the palace. Not to mention that there are more than 100 guards stationed in the palace, and the night watchmen are also divided into three groups, all of which have dozens of people.

Nan Zixiao also specially instructed that seven or eight more fifth-grade guards should be added to the cold palace.

And Concubine Li's entry into the cold palace was only yesterday, and the news was not even released, Li Xiang learned about it today, and he also had the same letter as Concubine Li, isn't it that the entire palace has unknowingly infiltrated his people?

A chill spread silently on the soles of his feet, and he felt the hairs on his back and neck stand on end.

He obediently told the story again. Anyway, the more he talks, the more unhappy Li Xiang becomes; The more uncomfortable his pretentious father became, the happier he became.

In the end, Li Xiang's face was dark and terrifying.

"Shut up!" Li Xiang finally stood up abruptly and overturned the table. So the juice on the table spilled Li Yangguan all over his head.

"Son!"

"She's a son of a! She's going to kill my Li Mansion! ”
