Lunch was brought in by the maids in turn, and the eunuch would report the name of the dish after each dish came in, and after the dish was served, the eunuch shouted: "After the dish, I respectfully invite the emperor and the national teacher to eat." Then he withdrew with the maids.

"You have a good life, there are eighty-eight dishes here, can you finish it?" She looked at the dazzling array of dishes in front of her, and was a little overwhelmed, although she herself opened a restaurant, and she had never seen such a full banquet.

"Evening song, this is specially prepared for you by the emperor, put all these dishes on it, see what you like to eat. Usually the emperor doesn't have these dishes, the emperor is not in good health, he can't eat too much, and only a few dishes are passed at a time. Haifeng said while serving soup for the emperor.

Frowning, Lou Wange put down the dishes and chopsticks, she took a closer look at the emperor's forehead, and even the hand holding the spoon was trembling slightly, and her body must not be able to bear it. She frowned in distress and said, "Didn't the medicine I prescribed last time have no effect?" Why can't I eat it? But are you tired when you go to court today? ”

Haifeng shook his head: "The effect is there, but the emperor's body is really-"

"Haifeng!" The emperor drank Haifeng, he didn't want Lou Wange to worry about his body: "My body is very good, don't talk nonsense, I just have a small appetite." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." SITC hurriedly returned.

Lou Wange thought to herself for a while, she knew very well the emperor's condition, she was depressed all the year round, and she suffered several injuries when she was young, even if she used the best medicine stone, it was difficult to support, plus there was a toxin in her body that she didn't even know about, and it kept spreading - she only blamed herself for being incompetent, and she could only use medicine to prolong the emperor's life, but it was fruitless.

"It'll be fine, I'll cure you. Come, eat. As he spoke, he was holding the dishes for the emperor, but the firmness in his heart was even stronger.

She wants to keep the emperor, and she can't let anyone leave her anymore - this is the promise she made since the old man Gu Daozi left, not to mention that she has always been the emperor as a relative, so she can't bear to see what happens to him.

"Wan Ge, last time the Cold Snow Pavilion incident happened, I heard that you were injured?" The emperor knew his body very well in his heart, but he didn't want her to worry, so he changed the topic and cautiously tried it.

"Ah, a little wounded, nothing. It was just that the accident that night caught me off guard. Lou Wange has always known everything about the emperor, but she has never told the emperor that she has a blood spirit in her body, on the one hand, she doesn't want him to worry, on the other hand, the blood spirit originates from the royal family, and she is also afraid that the emperor will be jealous of herself.

"That's good, just blame me, the old man of the deep palace, and I can't help you." The emperor nodded, but his eyes became a little unpredictable, and he seemed to be a little dodging Lou Wange's gaze: "Wange, if there is anything, you must tell me, although I am old and can't do anything, but there are some things, you are still too young, I can help you get an idea." ”

"Okay." Lou Wange's doubts deepened, the emperor's attitude changed too quickly and was full of temptation, did the emperor know that she was a blood spirit?

"Emperor, I'll discuss something with you." Lou Wange got rid of her own thoughts, the emperor treated her so well, there would be no dislikes, probably just thinking too much.

"What's the matter?"

"You see, as soon as this Sikong Mansion is removed, the eldest prince will have no backer, and he will definitely resent you and me, and I see him absent-minded in the court today. I think that the situation in the north has just stabilized, and it needs someone to go to the north to guard it. It just so happened that I heard that the lord of the northern border city of Youqian died, and he had no children under his knees, and the city was in chaos, so why not give the eldest prince a place to go to the city. ”

"Oh, how can you think that?"

"Although it is said, the first emperor conquered the country and pacified the Bafang Fanbang, stipulating that except for Dongliu, he could no longer divide the king into a fief in the territory of Beiyue. However, the rules are dead, people are alive, you can give the eldest prince a title and send him to the north, first, if you have an official position, he will have less resentment towards you and me, and second, so that he will not suffer in the imperial capital. Lou Wange took the teacup, and the eyes with no intention were reflected in the teacup, rippling, and soon dissipated.

"What do you think is appropriate?" The emperor knew that the current situation seemed to show that sending the eldest prince out was the best way for him and the imperial capital.

"The Nagaku Imperial Guard."

"Poof—ahem, ahem." The emperor had not swallowed the tea in his mouth, but when he heard this duty, he choked and coughed violently, and his face instantly turned red: "You, you, not long ago, I sealed a Changnan Imperial Guard, and you will have a Changbei Imperial History." But this imperial guard is a junior official, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate for my son to go. ”

Lou Wange smiled and patted the emperor's back: "I'm talking about the prince and imperial guard of Changbei." ”

"Hahaha, okay, this one. Or are you smart. The emperor laughed even more, how could he not know the meaning of Lou Wange's arrangement, but it was just in his arms.

The holy decree was issued in this way, and there was a turmoil in the government and the opposition, after all, this prince is almost equal to the position of the third prince, and the eldest prince is the first prince to obtain an official position.

"Beichen, what kind of medicine did you say my father was selling in this gourd. What kind of big brother was blocked. This prince of the country is an official position that has not been held in several dynasties. Bei Duqing was also curious about this holy decree, and as soon as he heard it, he hurried to Beichen's mansion to inquire.

Beichen's hand to make tea paused, and his eyebrows were full of smiles: "This must be the idea of our national teacher, the eldest brother's maternal concubine is not high and died early, although he is the first prince of his father, but in the matter of the prince, the name is not right, and now that Sikong Mansion has been brought down by the national teacher, she naturally wants to find a way to call the eldest brother farther away, although the name of the national prince is big, it is just a cover for the eldest brother to leave the imperial capital, the eldest brother is afraid that everything in the imperial capital has nothing to do with him——"

"The national teacher is really witty in doing this, this big brother didn't have time to find the person behind him, so he was arranged clearly." Bei Duqing also laughed.

"I wonder who will be the next person to be arranged by her?"

"It's not you, I'm right. Now that she is exposed, many identities can't be hidden, why should we take advantage of this time to make good arrangements, today she mentioned the national examination, I think, she has probably arranged her own people in it. But our spies didn't find anyone to find her. ”

"The national teacher has her own ideas, why don't you take care of your own people, as soon as the news of Sikong Mansion goes, the competition for the national test will be even greater."

"Well, when I went to the palace to greet my father two days ago, I would pass Liu Ruji, but I don't look like a smart one, it shouldn't be the Liu Ruji of the South Pavilion." Bei Duqing has been with Tang Juan for the past few days, but he rarely comes to Beichen, and he has never told him about this matter.

"That's not for sure. There is news that the second son of Nange has been lost, I see, most of this matter is also related to Lou Wange, and someone has been asked to check, but it's you, and the owner of Moxia Village have been reunited for a long time, Wen Cun is enough, what about Lou Wange? Beichen snatched the teacup from Bei Duqing's hand, and asked with a pretended jealousy.

"There's no news, but according to Wan'er, her grandfather disappeared when he was very young, and his communication was very shallow before his disappearance, and he spent most of his time in the house studying poisons. And Lou Wange told Wan'er that it was because of her grandfather that there had always been a group of secret people to protect Mo Xia, otherwise the loss three years ago would not be more than now. After snatching the teacup, Bei Du glanced at Beichen innocently: "Also, how much you can't see me and Wan'er are good, you have the ability, find one by yourself." ”

"You-"

Jingzhong Mansion, looking at the letter Haimi gave to him in his hand, his heart couldn't calm down for a long time. The people brought the food, and Bei Shen Ye didn't enter at all, just sat in a daze. Yunqi rarely saw his lord like this, and he gently opened his mouth and called tentatively: "Lord? ”

"Huh? What's the matter? ”

"My lord has not used lunch and dinner in a row, but what is there to worry about?"

"Oh," he handed the letter to Yunqi, "You can show me, what should I do in this situation?" ”

Yunqi looked at the letter written by Haimi to his lord, which recorded many things they had never told them about when they came to the imperial capital this time, including what happened recently, this series of arrangements and conspiracies made Yunqi also taken aback: "These many things? ”

"It's as simple as we think, and it seems that it's impossible to be alone. The clouds rise, but the people who flow the night have been arranged? Beishen stood up with trembling clothes in the night.

"It's almost cleaned up, it's basically our people, it's very reliable."

"From now on, I won't listen to them anymore, judging from the information they gave, this final place is in Dongliu, send more people to investigate, be sure to find out all this and the final person before their next operation." Standing in front of the window with his back hand, he commanded as he watched the sunset on the horizon.

"Yes."

"Also, the letter mentioned that they are in the South Pavilion in the center of the imperial capital, and they have to keep an eye on it, and there is Miss Lou's side, so there is no need to say it." Slowly walked to the desk, and said: "We have arranged more people for the national test, and the national teacher must be prepared to make such arrangements in the court today." ”

"Yes, I'll arrange it."

"Wait, let Fang Shan blend into the queue of General Zhenyuan, I'm worried that the matter of Far South is not so simple." Bei Shenye spread out a piece of paper, dipped his pen in ink and wrote something, and after writing, he put it in an envelope and sealed it with fire paint: "Tell him to give this letter to Nanbian by the way." ”

Yunqi naturally knew what this south side meant, so he just waited for Bei Shenye to finish writing the letter and put the letter in his chest: "The subordinates know, please don't worry too much, and the subordinates let the subordinates heat up the food again." ”

"Hmm."
