The undercurrent of the royal capital 045, the deadline has arrived
Bailizan's attitude made Cui Huan more and more sure of his guess, he was probably not happy under Cui Yi's hands, after all, his second brother's violent temper, Cui Huan is still very clear, most of the literati are cheap, I am afraid that although Bailizan has the right to speak, he has also suffered a lot of grievances, if he has nowhere to go, he probably will not be willing to stay in Wuwang's Mansion to be angry.
"Today, this king is unlucky, I can't drink with Brother Wenyu, it's a pity, why don't you go to the Spring Breeze Building together another day to have a drink?" Cui Huan extended an olive branch.
Bailizan hesitated for a moment, sneakily glanced at Cui Yi, who was talking to the prince, and confirmed that he didn't pay attention to this side at all, before he replied vaguely: "I'm afraid...... Not quite right, right? ”
Cui Huan understood his concerns, and he didn't force him: "Don't worry, just send a message to this king after you think about it." ”
Bailizan looked preoccupied, arched his hand and got up to say goodbye, and quietly gave Zhiying a look on the way - the first stage was completed.
Zhiying received the code, and while pouring wine for the brothers in front of him, he said: "But isn't it, Mr. said that although he and the Third Highness have not seen each other for many years, they still maintain correspondence, but they have never known that the other party is actually the prince, and it was the Third Highness who suggested that Mr. come to the capital to seek officials." ”
Cui Jie repeated her words with a slight suspicion while holding a wine glass: "The third brother asked him to come to the capital to seek officials?" I didn't hear him say that since he is a talented person, he should recommend it to the officials, how can he still let people run into walls everywhere, and he is not afraid of chilling the hearts of his friends. ”
Zhiying smiled and said, "Maybe the Third Highness has other plans." ”
Hiding that Cui Jie has other plans? Hehe, do you plan to use it yourself, or do you plan to secretly introduce it to the second brother Cui Yi, Zhiying deliberately only said half of it, and let Cui Jie make up for the rest.
Based on her understanding of Cui Jie, this person is open-minded and generous on the surface, but in fact he is more suspicious than anyone else, his mind is as deep as the sea, and he still wants to kill people who are loyal to him, not to mention those suspected of rebellion.
Of course, whether Cui Huan is dead or alive has no effect on Cui Yi, and her purpose is not to make Cui Jie and Cui Huan's brothers turn against each other, and the real big fish has not been baited yet.
The banquet continued, and Bailizan, who had disappeared for a while, came back "sneakily".
"Lord Wang," Bailizan respectfully handed over a blue-skinned book, "Lord Wang said that he liked "Essays on Zhaohuachuan", but I couldn't find the whole book, but it happened that I found one a few days ago at the dealer who collected old books, although it was a little broken, but it was generally complete, and I hope that the prince will accept it with a smile." ”
Cui Huan took it with some surprise: "You actually know "Zhaohuachuan Essay"? Touching the book cover that had been repaired with hard blue paper because it was damaged, the neat corners and the re-inscribed title, it could be seen that Bailizan was very attentive.
Bailizan asked inexplicably: "Didn't the prince tell me himself?" ”
Cui Huan suddenly realized that he had lost his words, his expression froze, and then he hurriedly covered up the past: "No, what this king meant, it's hard for you to remember." ”
Bailizan snickered in his stomach, pretended not to take it seriously, and left after giving the gift.
What I really like is Shan Jian, even if Cui Huan gets it, he will only give it to him, so that the letter hidden in the book can be smoothly handed over to Shan Jian.
It is also possible that Cui Huan or Cui Jie will check it out because they are not at ease, but it doesn't matter, the result is the same.
After dark, the guests went home one after another, and Cui Yi pretended to be drunk and didn't go out to send it, which just gave Cui Jie a chance to talk to Cui Huan.
Cui Huan touched his face, sighed, and was about to get into the carriage, when Cui Jie stopped him behind his back: "Third brother." ”
"Ah, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince," Cui Huan was startled and hurriedly turned around to salute, "What does Your Highness command?" ”
Cui Jie stretched out his hand and didn't speak, Cui Huan's lips moved twice, and he silently took out the book "Zhaohuachuan Essay" and handed it over, Cui Jie took it and flipped a few pages, Cui Huan hurriedly said: "Fu Zhi has been looking for this book, Your Highness ......"
Cui Jie couldn't help but sneer, closed the book, and asked, "I look like a person who snatches people's love?" ”
Cui Huan bowed his head and said nothing, Cui Jie returned the book to him: "Third brother, you should be careful, even the person next to the pillow can't guarantee that he won't betray you, let alone a diner." ”
Cui Huan's face suddenly turned purple, but fortunately, the lantern light was not good, so he couldn't see it, he half-hung his head, and said reluctantly: "Your Highness's lesson is that your brother should pay attention." ”
Cui Jie's hand knocked twice on the book cover: "Go back early, find some medicine to wipe the wounds on your face, don't break the appearance." ”
Cui Huan said angrily: "Yes." ”
When the carriage of the East Palace was far away, Cui Huancai gritted his teeth and got into his carriage, and said angrily: "Go!" ”
Inside the Martial Prince's Mansion.
Cui Yi teased her daughter by the cradle like a big dog, Zhiying took a bath, sat down and let Xiaoqiu wipe her hair, and when she heard the constant giggles over there, she said, "Don't tease her all the time, let her sleep." ”
Cui Yi reluctantly left the cradle, climbed to the bed to lie down, Zhiying dried her hair, and also came to the bedside: "The prince has almost moved back to the main compartment to sleep, right?" ”
"Well, you're done with your confinement, it's time to move back." Cui Yi grabbed a strand of her hair and sniffed it under her nose, very satisfied, so he stretched out his arm and wrapped her into his arms.
Zhiying took off his shoes and went to bed: "I mean the prince should go back." ”
Cui Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he smacked it, and his brows immediately wrinkled: "You don't move back?" Still angry? ”
Zhiying shook his head, lay down on his arm, and said, "It's not that I'm angry, but I can't, has the prince forgotten what the emperor said a few years ago?" If I give birth to a daughter, I will marry you a concubine, since I want to marry a concubine, I don't look good when I live in the main room, I have asked the housekeeper to clean up the courtyard of Chaoyang next door, and I will move over tomorrow with Xian'er. ”
Cui Yi's good interest was disturbed, and his face was depressed: "What to move!" In this palace, do you have the final say, or do I have the final say? ”
Zhiying smiled and poked his face: "Didn't the prince say when he was sick last time, will I be in charge of this palace in the future?" ”
Cui Yi was speechless for a moment, and laughed uncontrollably, Cui Yi was annoyed and angry, and turned over and pressed her on the bed: "This king is not dead yet!" My father can control who I want to marry, and where I sleep? You're going to move next door, and I'm moving in too, so I'm tired of living there. ”
"Hey! The prince and so on. ”
"What to wait for, so decided."
At the other end of Zizhang City, the Jin Palace.
Cui Huan dragged his tired body back to the room, the princess Chen had already rested, leaving an indifferent back of her head for him, Cui Huan sat down in the chair, Chen moved in the quilt, as if she wanted to turn her head, Cui Huan pretended not to know that she was pretending to be asleep, and asked the maid to get the wound medicine.
The couple had just quarreled during the day, and Chen refused to accompany him to Wuwang's Mansion to drink full moon wine in a fit of anger, Cui Huan didn't even coax her, and she couldn't afford it, so she flicked her sleeves and left, which made Chen feel ashamed and angry at home and wait until midnight, and only when he heard that he arrived at the door did he lie down in a panic and pretend to sleep.
Chen originally planned to wait for him to take the initiative to apologize, but when he heard that he asked the maid to get the medicine, he was a little worried, and after being entangled for a while, he still turned over and pretended to have just woken up: "The prince is back?" ”
Cui Huan ignored her and looked at the bronze mirror to check the wound on his face.
Chen touched a nail, Ai Ai was for a long time, and then asked, "Is the prince injured?" ”
Cui Huan replied coldly: "Don't care, sleep with you." ”
Chen was so choked by him that he couldn't speak for a long time, and he felt that there was nowhere to vent his grievances, so he got out of bed with his clothes on, and walked towards him: "Lord Wang's tone, are you still blaming me?" ”
Cui Huan raised his eyes and looked at her, ignoring it, and Chen said again: "I have been married to the prince for so many years, have you ever done anything to be sorry for the prince?" The prince only has sage books in his heart, and he recites poems every day, and I am not taking care of all the big and small things in the house, even the queen is worried about the thin heirs of the prince, and wants to give the prince a concubine, I am also dedicated to helping Zhang Luo, but have I ever had half a complaint? ”
"I'm heartbroken for the prince and the palace, isn't it as good as a nerd who lives in the mansion and eats white rice, and can't do anything except chat and play chess with the prince?"
Before she finished speaking, Cui Huanhuo got up and strode out. Chen was shocked and hurriedly chased behind: "Lord Wang! Where else is the prince going to go at such a late hour? ”
Cui Huan said coldly: "I still have some things to deal with, so I will sleep in the study tonight." ”
"Lord Wang!" Chen shouted with a crying voice.
However, Cui Huan left without looking back.
After Cui Yi went to the court the next day, Zhiying asked the maids to move all their suitcases and makeup to the next yard, the yard is not big, the sun is abundant, and there is a big plane tree in the corner, which casts a shade in this midsummer.
Today's sun is just right, and while turning over the futon, Lang Yue said: "Madame doesn't need to be in a hurry to move, the emperor is not in a hurry to marry the prince, and it is not a day or two for the emperor to marry the daughter born to the prince, but this candidate has not yet been decided, and it will not be another one or two days to get married. ”
Holding the child in the courtyard in the sun, she smiled when she heard this: "If the emperor has the heart to let me be a concubine, he will not set this rule, instead of waiting for the new master to come to the door, it is better to be conscious, and you can leave a good impression on the emperor and queen." ”
Lang Yue sighed and said, "Madam always wrongs herself like this. ”
Holding on but smiling.
Cui Yi will marry someone else sooner or later, which she has been mentally prepared for before passing through the door, but she doesn't know who this "she" will be. In the previous life, she was the crown princess, Cui Yi never married a wife until she died, and it is difficult to say whether the concubine has it, but even if she does, she will not become a wife if she does it again, so it doesn't matter.
What kind of daughter-in-law will Emperor Jianyuan find for his son? Although her eldest grandson Zhiying is said to be "seriously ill and physically disabled", but before leaving the cabinet, she was the eldest daughter of the princess, and the sister of the princess can only be a concubine, so in Zizhang City, there are still a few girls in the boudoir who can be higher than her and worthy of Cui Yi, who is known as the god of war?
