Chapter 440: The End of Qingping (10)
Princess Taiping's Mansion.
When Quan Ce returned from going out, a group of people led the horses, packed up the carriages, and entered the house through the side door.
There are only two people left around Quan Ce, Jedi and astrology.
The people who were dressed up were actually high-level officials of the wordless monument and the wingless bird, and they went to the mountain together to worship Shazha Shu and Buyue.
During this period of time, his subordinates suffered heavy losses, in terms of the wordless monument, Quan Zhong was still in charge of the coordination of the commander-in-chief, and the street affairs of Shazha Shu were handed over to the Dragon Descending Arhats, Buyue's people, and they were taken over by the curse sun, astrology and Jedi together, and followed Quan Ce's side to serve closely, poisoning and other things, it was too hurtful, and there could not be a second time, on the wingless bird's side, the green slave's errand was taken over by a man named Hua Nu, this flower slave, and another layer of identity, was the leader of the palace maids in uniform sent by the palace, Xie Yaohuan's henchman.
Quan Ce entered the gate of the mansion, and twenty palace maids in military uniforms holding horizontal knife handles and wearing armor immediately surrounded him, following suit, which made him feel quite uncomfortable, "Hua Nu, you have left the palace, you don't need to wear armor in the future, just change into a strong suit, it's too eye-catching, it's not good."
"Yes, master" Hua Nu is a goose-faced girl, her cheeks are very fair and plump, her temperament is lively, but her words and deeds are very measured, "Master, you say, what color of power suit is appropriate for us?" ”
"You are all young cardamom age, and you don't look like you are gray-headed" Quan Ce glanced at them, and his face showed a look of reminiscence, "Just, wear green, the style is not limited to you, just don't delay the errand"
Hua Nu nodded excitedly, the palace maids also exchanged their heads, very happy, not to mention the heavy armor, it was ugly, they were already impatient, bright colors, beautiful clothes, which girl didn't love?
After the flower slave rejoiced, her big eyes flashed, and she stepped forward, "Master, the deceased is gone, and the people in heaven will not want to see the master sad, and the slave will definitely inherit her will and die for the master."
Quan Ce turned his face, glanced at her, and shook his head to indicate that he was fine, "I will give you half a day off today, and go to buy things and things, and go to the account office to collect the expenses."
The twenty palace maids cheered and chattered away.
Quan Ce stepped to the main hall.
Princess Taiping is entertaining, the guests are from Fangzhou, and they are also acquaintances, the former Shangyi Fengyu, and the Gongcao of the Luling Palace.
"The lower official meets the general" Wang Tongjiao saw him enter the door and knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Wang joins the army, please get up, a few years away, long gone" Quan Ce helped him up, this gentle and jade-like noble son, less than thirty years old, but his face was vicissitudes, wrinkled, and his sideburns were gray, and he no longer looked romantic.
Wang Tongjiao seemed to be a little embarrassed, turned his face, and avoided the sight of Quan Ce, "The general is as heroic as before, but he has lost a lot, and he still hopes to protect his noble body and hope for the four seas."
Quan Ce and Princess Taiping exchanged a line of sight, Wang Tongjiao is the right-hand man of the King of Luling, when the northern capital changed, he was sent to the north to pacify, and the Empress Wu ordered the internal guards to poison, so that he vomited and diarrhea, stumbled in Qingzhou, and finally failed, and the vitality of the Luling Palace.
"Thank you Wang for joining the army, please take a seat" Quan Ce was solemn, and he was not polite, and sat on the main seat next to Princess Taiping, "King Luling is good?" ”
"The King of Luling is good, but he has been out for a long time, often thinking about his blood relatives' hometown, His Royal Highness Taiping's wedding, the general is an adult, and the King of Luling has never participated, often sighing and regretting himself, I don't know when the flesh and blood will be reunited, and the family will be reunited" Wang Tongjiao said euphemistically, but the meaning was clearly expressed, and the King of Luling was uneasy and wanted to return to the capital.
Princess Taiping took Quan Ce's hand, her neck was lowered, she was silent, and there was a trace of disdain at the corner of her mouth, she was married, and Dalang regretted that she couldn't participate as an adult, so it didn't matter if her daughter got married?
“…… Fangzhou is closed, or after the arrival of the martial assassin history, the king of Luling knew that the general was going to marry Princess Yunxi on the New Year's Day next year, and he was thinking hard about good strategies, looking forward to having the opportunity to praise the general.
Quan Ce smiled on his face and nodded frequently, the figure of King Luling or Princess Wei of Luling became softer and softer, and he could cooperate with Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghei, and he didn't forget to win him over, "Thank you for the kindness of His Royal Highness Luling, Quan Ce is the younger generation, the kindness of the elders, I am grateful in my heart"
Wang Tongjiao saw that the power was not leaking, and he no longer tried it, and knocked on his head, "His Royal Highness Taiping, the minister is guilty, almost forgot, the minister was ordered to come to Beijing, it is for the marriage of the lord of Yongtai, the king of Luling and the princess are far away in Fangzhou, they have no will, they cannot enter Beijing, and the emperor's heir is also inconvenient, so I have to favor you."
"The nephew of the palace, I will not let her be wronged, you will discuss with Zongzheng Temple, all the manpower and material resources will be by the palace, cough cough, all by Da Lang" Princess Taiping was halfway through her words, turned around again, and dragged the power out.
Wang Tongjiao showed surprise on his face, and hurriedly stopped, "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you General, the minister retired."
When he walked away, Quan Ce turned around and lay on his back on Princess Taiping's lap, his eyes slightly closed.
Princess Taiping lowered her head, like Yun Qingsi drooping, shrouded Quan Ce's cheeks, the fragrance was lingering, and she was careful, "Da Lang, you don't want the imperial heir to sit firmly on the throne of the prince, why don't you take the opportunity to ease relations with King Luling?" It's a lot of money."
Quan Ce raised his head, put it down again, and used some strength slightly, as if he was slightly punished, "Ease or not, it's all meaningless, the emperor's heir is convicted, and the status of the King of Luling rises, it is inevitable, but they have been moving frequently recently, and there is a tendency to merge with all parties of the martial arts, which is very unfavorable to Your Majesty's mind, but it is very unfavorable to me, I have to do something in secret, provoke one or two"
Several turbulences, the political pattern has been formed, Quan Ce knows his own value, the martial family, Wu Youxu, Wu Youji, Wu Youyi and others, are all good friends with him, the younger generation of Wu Yanji and others, Wu Bingde and others in the far branch are even more so, he himself is the surname of the Li family, and through the relationship between Princess Taiping, Princess Qianjin and Li Sujie, the king of Yu, he has been recognized by many Li families, which is his political foundation.
Now that Wu Chenghei is over, King Luling and Wu Sansi seek cooperation, he has no objections, but if it is further extended to other branches of the Wu family, it will erode his position, if the Li and Wu families are ironclad, where is there room for him?
"Not good for you?" Princess Taiping weighed her words, and her face became ugly, "It's amazing, our eldest man can clearly distinguish between inside and outside, it's not good for you, it's good for me?" ”
Quan Ce had already learned to be obedient, and he couldn't hear the problem, so he turned over and said with a shy face, "You and I are one, how can we divide each other?" It's just that you are a member of the inner circle of Li Wu's two families, with the favor of His Majesty, you can advance and retreat calmly, and you can almost win the world.
"Hmph" Princess Taiping snorted, looked up with pride, and gave him a white look, "If you are defeated, I will lock you up in the house and feed you into a white fat man, which is like now, it is said that it is a good life to recuperate, but it is still a picky eater and running around, and it is very angry"
Quan Ce smiled, but refused to admit his mistake.
Princess Taiping sulked.
Quan Ce took the lyre, sat on the ground, and played gently, with a clear tone, like flowing water.
Princess Taiping fell on all fours, leaned over, sat down next to him, leaned her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes and listened, quite happy.
