Chapter 166: Involved
In Yanchun Palace, Yuan Yichen sat on the table with cold eyes, not looking at Yuan Huaisheng at the door.
Chang Xinru glanced at Yuan Yichen, and then smiled softly at Yuan Huaisheng: "Don't pay attention to him, come over and tell the fourth sister-in-law how you met that Miss Mo." The last time I saw your sachet, I thought something was wrong. It turns out that I really have a sweetheart. ”
Yuan Huaisheng looked at Yuan Yichen lazily and said, "I didn't know each other in the past, but I have been thinking about it recently. Anyway, sooner or later, you will all know, and there is no rush for this time. ”
"What do you mean not to be in a hurry? I'm a headache for your marriage. You little white-eyed wolf, tell me too! Yuan Yichen patted the table, very dissatisfied.
"The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, I naturally know what to do. Now that it's a foregone conclusion, let's think about what happens next. ”
Yuan Huaisheng was not polite at all, and sat beside Yuan Yichen uprightly, not polite at all.
Yuan Yichen wanted to scold a few more words, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say a word, so he had to sigh and ask, "Are you serious?" Marriage is no child's play. Once decided, it's a lifelong affair. ”
Yuan Huaisheng nodded: "Naturally, I thought it through, I only said it last night, you already asked this morning, and now you ask again?" Could it be that I'm an unreliable person? ”
"Speaking of which, I want to ask, why did you go home in a hurry when you said you would have lunch together?" Chang Xinru hid her face and chuckled.
"Mo Yanxi came to me, not far away, so I went back to eat with her." Yuan Huaisheng replied calmly, just as an ordinary thing.
The smile in Chang Xinru's eyes was even worse, and she said deliberately: "It turns out that she is anxious about her daughter-in-law who has not passed the door!" ”
"I'm not ashamed! I talk about such things outside, and I am not afraid of other people's jokes. A man should stand up to the heavens and the earth, where do so many children come from. ”
Yuan Yichen snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied with Yuan Huaisheng's words.
Yuan Huaisheng was not willing to hear about it, and when he heard this, he choked coldly: "Is it? I haven't seen you don't have a long love for children, running to Yanchun Palace all day long, Your Majesty is really not afraid of others saying that you have three thousand beauties in the harem, and you are alone in your favor? It's so blatant, and he even preached me. ”
"I... I am! When Yuan Yichen heard this, he wanted to refute it, but these were naked truths, and he had no reason to talk back.
"Okay, you two brothers, so old, are you still fighting like children? Huaisheng, you're coming back in a hurry now, I'm afraid it's not just to quarrel with Yichen, right? ”
Yuan Huaisheng nodded: "I came this time to return the military power and ask the imperial brother to be dismissed." ”
Yuan Yichen and Chang Xinru were shocked when they heard this, and they couldn't believe that Yuan Huaisheng would have such an idea.
"No! What's going on in your head? Although Miss Mo has a special identity, but I am the monarch of the dynasty, if you like her, marry her directly, I see who dares to say a word! ”
Yuan Yichen was furious, but he also knew why Yuan Huaisheng had such thoughts.
"This matter is imperative, you have only been in power for a few years, the water in this court is deep, it seems to be calm on the surface, but in fact, there is an undercurrent, don't forget, now there is a Yuan Chuqing in Yuanling. His talent is obvious to everyone, especially those old ministers, who thought that Yuan Chuqing could inherit the throne back then. Yuan Huaisheng said, his eyes narrowed slightly: "If you do something that makes them dissatisfied during this time period, it is not a good thing for Yuan Ling. Only by doing so will they feel balanced. At least they won't blatantly do something ugly. ”
When Yuan Yichen heard this, his eyes were deep, and he sighed after a while: "It's all because I'm incompetent, so you can't be at peace, even if you run around all day long, now you can't even help yourself in marriage matters." If you had ......
"Brother Huang, it is determined by the destiny of heaven, I am so natural that I can't be this emperor. Yuan Chuqing is not good, only if you are in power, the people of Yuan Ling can be free from suffering, the government is clear, and the world is peaceful. Such a big task can only work hard for you. ”
Yuan Huaisheng naturally knew what Yuan Yichen was going to say, and he had already taken the first step and blocked Yuan Yichen's unfinished words.
When Yuan Yichen heard this, he looked stunned and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Yuan Huaisheng continued: "Besides, I naturally have my own plans for doing this, although I am exempted from power, but as long as I live, my prestige will not be reduced, and no one will dare to make any overt actions." Besides, what is the difference between this power in your hands and in my hands? If there is a war, give it to me again. ”
After speaking, Yuan Yichen's face finally softened a little, and sighed: "In this case, it is better to let Gonggong Xu invite a master to find a good day and auspicious day, we will have a big event, it is good to have someone in the family, at least you are willing to go home." ”
Chang Xinru also smiled: "It's so good, I also have someone who can talk." I always feel a little lonely on weekdays, and no one has anything to say. ”
Yuan Huaisheng nodded, as if he remembered something again, and continued: "By the way, I came today, and I have one more thing to say. ”
Yuan Yichen saw that Yuan Huaisheng's expression changed, and he knew that this matter was not simple, so he immediately asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?" ”
"Last night in the imperial dining room, Mo Yanxi's maid was attacked, I have already brought it back and asked, some of them are from the Guogong Mansion, and some of them are from Chongshan Road."
"Guogong Mansion? Heavy mountain road? Could it be that Li Chengming and Chongshan Road still have some collusion? When Yuan Yichen heard this, his expression froze.
Yuan Huaisheng knocked on the table uncertainly, and said: "I don't know what is going on, and the Guogong Mansion is not very peaceful, and it is not difficult to guess that Li Chengming can do anything to collude with Chongshan Dao in order to strengthen the Guogong Mansion." But I'm afraid there is no way to be sure about this matter. ”
Yuan Yichen raised his eyebrows: "Why?" The people of Shigeyama Road must have disguised themselves as entourages and followed those ministers in. There are so many people, but they can't be brought in by ordinary ministers quietly. ”
"In addition to the Guogong Mansion, isn't there also the Prime Minister's Mansion? Now in the entire Wenxi City, there are those who want Mo Yan to die, but there is also the Prime Minister's Mansion, plus the attack on the Mo Mansion not long ago, those people are also first-class masters. I specially went to let Changqing check, the place where those people are hiding in Wenxi City is the house under the name of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Isn't it too much of a coincidence? ”
Yuan Huaisheng said, apparently he preferred to believe in the second possibility.
The incense in the house slowly burned out, and little by little it disappeared into the furnace, leaving only some residual fragrance.
Yuan Yichen thought for a while, and nodded after a long time: "What you said is reasonable, but no matter which end it is, we should always take some precautions, and I will send someone to keep an eye on it in the dark." When his father was here, he was really holding the Prime Minister's Mansion too much, and it had only been a few years, and Mo Fulin had already been in power. If it weren't for the fact that there was a national government, I really wouldn't have a clue who to support to balance. ”
"When two tigers fight, one will be injured, and I think they are all fierce, we just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and add fire when necessary. The Guogong Mansion is no longer the Guogong Mansion of the past, and as for the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is not a well-established one. How did the crown prince Fu Yuanqing die. I still think it has something to do with Mo Fulin! ”
Yuan Huaisheng said, his eyes revealing a hint of murder.
The sky was getting darker, the sky was scarlet, and everywhere you could feel the sadness of the setting sunset.
"By the way, since it's decided, let's invite Miss Mo into the palace another day. Since it is my own family, I should always get to know each other. Just the four of us, make a real family dinner. ”
Yuan Yichen calmed down at this moment and glanced at Yuan Huaisheng with slanted eyes.
"That's right! I think the same way, since it is the person chosen by Huaisheng himself, then it is our own family, bring it over another day, let's take a closer look. I've got to cook it myself and make something delicious. ”
Chang Xinru clapped her hands excitedly, obviously recognizing Mo Yanxi.
Yuan Huaisheng didn't think about it, so he nodded and agreed. There's still a little sweetness in my heart, and I can't tell what it feels like.
It was completely dark, but luckily there was a bright moon that could barely illuminate it.
A spacious and delicate carriage crossed Changsheng Street and stopped in a small alley in the deepest part.
There are almost no people living in this alley, most of them are abandoned houses.
Li Mengyao got out of the carriage with the support of Bijiao, and a Manli figure was standing in front of her.
"Presumably, the person who came is Miss Li of the Guogong Mansion? My son-in-law has been waiting inside for a long time, girl, please. ”
The man spoke, and then made a way to reveal a dilapidated door. The door was open, and a faint candlelight peeked out from inside.
Li Mengyao glanced at the cobwebs wrapped around the lintel with disgust, and then walked into the house.
Looking out of the courtyard, I could really see a tall figure, which was concentrating on cutting the wick at the moment.
Li Mengyao snorted coldly, then stepped forward and pushed open the wooden door.
"Is that you?"
Li Mengyao narrowed his eyes, as if he was a little surprised by the identity of the person.
Song Wen chased up and chuckled: "Miss Li, I haven't seen you for a day, why are you so haggard?" It is here that you are invited to come here. ”
Li Mengyao glanced at Song Wenchai with disdain, and then found a place to sit down, and asked coldly: "Lord Song has such a habit?" However, you asked me to come here privately, if you let Your Majesty know, I am afraid that Lord Song will not be able to go back to this Zhaoyuan Country. ”
When Song Wenchai heard this, he didn't panic at all, and smiled: "I asked Miss Li to come here today, but for the sake of Miss Li's heart, you and I take what we need, and we don't know it, and then we don't get involved." Isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
