Chapter 605: Prospective Horse 4
"I've seen the fifth brother of the Cai family," Liu Guifei hurriedly asked, "What is the appearance of the concubine, I have only heard of it from the official family, but I have never seen it." ”
"Naturally, she is a talent, and she is really worthy of God. At a young age, he was already a very popular minister, and he could be called a leader in Bianjing City. In the future, it is even more limitless. Lin Lingsu boasted.
"The Taoist chief said a few years ago that Mao De was the first person in the harem, and this sentence is now," Liu Guifei asked in a tentative whisper. Although Mao De secretly ran out of the palace and went to Yanjing, saying that he wanted to return to Yanjing from Wan Shengjun, but later Yanjing was lost again in less than half a month, so Liu Guifei still felt a little upset in her heart. Born in the royal family, the best ending is to be safe and quiet, and not to get involved in political affairs. Lin Lingsu's words two years ago frightened not only her, even the official family put Maode's marriage on hold.
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, and I can't say much about the old way, but there is a touch of peach in the emperor's hall, which should be in the matter of marriage. Niangniang just waits for the emperor to get married, and in the future, the mother will be expensive by her daughter, hahaha. Lin Lingsu didn't say any more, and went back to his Shangqing Palace.
"This fool," a maid whispered on the side, "What kind of bastard are you talking about, Niangniang is now a noble concubine, will she still rely on her courtiers to become rich and noble in the future?"
"The world is unpredictable, who can say clearly, the Cai family is full of ministers, protégés and former officials are all over the world, the old Cai Xianggong is already like this, who can say for sure that the Cai family will be better than his father in the future" Another maid said dissatisfied.
"This dynasty has always been a colt who can't do a real job, but I'm afraid that if I do a colt, I'm just a false name, but it's better now."
"Then how can anyone not be in charge of the army, Tong Xuanfu has been leading the army for several years; The prince is not allowed to receive a real position, and the third brother is still in charge of the Imperial City Division."
"Shhhh If you are heard carefully, your life will be at risk. Just serve the good lady and eat with a mouthful of food. An older maid reminded. Liu Guifei is lenient, even if these maids are by Liu Guifei's side, they dare to speak in a low voice, but when they think of the rules in the palace, they all stop.
Zhou Nan and the others were on the tower of Xuande Gate, watching a team of lanterns pass by on the royal street, there are dragon lanterns that are forty or fifty steps long, and there are also pagoda floating lanterns that are high and level with the Xuande Gate City Tower; There are lanterns carried by people from the streets, and lanterns placed on boats that flow down the river from the dragon river. There is also a lantern puzzle with one person holding a lantern and hundreds of people walking neatly. There are also fireworks that are lit and emit brilliant brilliance, and they compete with the lanterns as the people swim forward.
The people on the street applauded again and again, and it was much more lively than the scene of chasing stars in later generations, but I don't know if I had a full stomach. Zhou Nan peeked at Zhao Ji, although Zhao Ji was old, he was as happy as a child, he didn't know the suffering of the people, and he didn't know that the Great Song Dynasty was in danger at this time. Maybe people who engage in art are either optimists or sorrowful factions, and they are not normal people anyway, let alone can govern the country well. In Zhou Nan's view, Zhao Ji's best ending is to take a group of art students to travel the world, leaving a strong mark on Chinese civilization in art. The key is, does Zhao Ji have this awareness?
During this period, Li Bangyan said a few words beside Zhao Ji from time to time, which made Zhao Ji laugh. Cai You even tried his best to get close to Zhao Ji, and sometimes learned to behave as a servant, so that Zhao Ji could pay attention to himself. Zhou Nan immediately added the names of Li Bangyan and Cai You to Zhao Ji's list of travels around the world.
Li Bangyan even took advantage of Zhao Ji's inattention and secretly gave Zhou Nan a look to show his closeness. Zhou Nan was very strange, he and these two embassy envoys only met after coming to Bianjing, these two people were Wenchen, and they had no intersection with him, why did they approach him for no reason
If the two of them are from the prince's faction, they can explain it, just like when they came to Xiongzhou. But with the prince's character and personality, as well as the style of his subordinate Geng Nanzhong, he will definitely not tolerate Li Bangyan. And the three princes are almost close to themselves, and the subordinates of the three princes will never be so affectionate with themselves.
There is only one explanation, that is, these two people approached and curry favor with themselves, and they must have wanted to seek some benefits from themselves. It's just that I don't know what these two people are asking for.
It's just that Zhao Ji is here, and it's inconvenient after all. No matter when, when he is the boss, no one wants his subordinates to secretly hook up with outsiders. Li Bangyan and Cai You didn't dare to have more contact with Zhou Nan in front of Zhao Ji.
The lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival are finally finished. Calm gradually returned to the streets, and everyone dispersed in a hurry. The officers and retinues of the brigade were about to go home, and no one would stay in the street and wait for the servants of the officers and men to shout and curse.
Zhao Ji, who was tired for a day, went back to the inner palace first. The rest of the officials also left the imperial city in groups according to their ranks, and went home.
Zhou Nan took Li Feixing and Xiao Jiu back to Dutingyi, he needed to do it immediately, the first was to write a letter to Gao Yun and send someone to escort Shen Ding to Bianjing in the Great Song Dynasty to see him in Dutingyi. the second is to find an opportunity to meet Zhao Ji and propose to Zhao Ji the matter of the mutual market between the Liao State and the Great Song Dynasty; The third thing is to secretly meet this true Mr. Lin Lingsu, to explore his reality or to see how much he knows about himself. It is not very pleasant to be completely in the hands of one person in his own secrets.
As for the strange behavior of Li Bangyan and Cai You, Zhou Nan didn't care very much, besides, Zhou Nan was not in a hurry in this matter, he just needed to wait patiently, and Li Bangyan and Cai You would naturally come to him.
Zhou Nan first wrote the letter to Gao Yun, and then called Li Feixing and Xiao Jiu and told them about what happened in the main hall during the day. Zhou Nan was in the main hall, and Li Feixing and Xiao Jiu were both in the Duo Hall in the west, and they were not very clear about what happened in the main hall. Li Feixing and Xiao Jiu are both people around him, so he naturally wants to tell them these things so that they can better grasp the current situation.
When he returned to the cottage to deliver letters, Zhou Nan asked Li Feixing's deputy to take two people back early tomorrow morning, and sent Shen Ding to Dutingyi safely. Seeing that Zhao Ji's matter was in a hurry, Zhou Nan planned to wait for the carriage to be built, and then borrow it to meet Zhao Ji when he got into the carriage.
"Tomorrow you go out and inquire and see where that Taoist man lives. In the evening, you will follow me to find out the truth of this man. Zhou Nan said to Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu was about to speak, and a person pushed the door in from the outside, and when Zhou Nan looked, it was Zhou Fu who was secretly spying on the golden envoy.
Zhou Fu seemed to have come in a hurry, and he didn't change his dusty robe, and after coming in, he said to Zhou Nan, "Sure enough, the Jin people have something important to do." I was just in the Duting West Post where the Jin people lived, and I saw the two golden envoys coming back, and one of them was limping, as if he was injured. A messenger from the Jin Kingdom hurriedly presented a secret letter to the two golden envoys, saying that the old emperor had issued an order to ask the two golden envoys to take your life. There is one more thing, but it has something to do with Big Brother Gao. ”
