Chapter 428: The little prince is worried, and the old official is depressed
Chapter 428 The little prince is worried, and the old official is depressed
There is no East Palace in the Lai Palace, but there is an East Inner Garden. However, it is not so much the role of this East Palace as it is the role of the Imperial Garden. Therefore, as the crown prince, Li Hong still sees the courtiers in the East Palace of Taiji Palace to deal with political affairs, and it takes more than an hour to run Penglai Palace every day.
This is the filial piety of the son of man, and he said that he didn't feel any bitterness at all, and even if he felt bitter, he wouldn't say it outside.
Li Zhi is not in good health, and the ministers are used to it, and he, who is a son, is also used to it. However, when he saw his father sitting on the throne all of a sudden when he was in the Ben Dynasty, he was still shocked, and when he learned from the imperial doctor that it was just a recurrence of wind vertigo, he let go of his heart, and then he was what to do.
In order to assist him, the crown prince, the courtiers arranged by Li Zhi for the East Palace are all first-class elite soldiers, such as Liu Renliang, such as Hao Chujun, and Shangguanyi...... In other words, once he, the crown prince, opens his mouth and wants who he wants to be the assistant of the East Palace, Li Zhi will definitely open the door. However, Li Hong is not as good as Li Xian, and the rules of etiquette have been deeply rooted in his bones, so he has great respect for these highly respected ministers, and he almost obeys his words.
Although Shangguanyi is famous all over the world in poetry, he is not old in politics, but Liu Renliang has had a big ups and downs, and he can be described as a insight into the world. Therefore, on the issue of concealing Li Zhi's illness from Li Xian, Li Hong was persuaded by his statement.
Liu Renliang's words seemed to be thinking about these two brothers every word: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is certainly in harmony with His Royal Highness King Yong, even if His Royal Highness King Yongwang is in the northwest, it is necessary to at least inform him." But. His Royal Highness King Yong can be angry at the crown and turn red. I ran all the way to the northwest, but now I heard that His Majesty was ill and would leave everything behind and rush back? Filial piety is important, but the situation in the northwest is uncertain. If you fall short because of this, I am afraid that in the future, not only His Royal Highness King Yong will regret it, but His Majesty will also be annoyed. Since His Royal Highness is close to King Yong, let's protect him this time. ”
The wings are stiff and want to fly, these eight words are not enough to describe Li Hong's current state of mind. He is pure and filial by nature, coupled with the nature of mother and son. Although he once felt that his mother was arbitrary, after Wu decisively abandoned Li Yifu, and Li Xian took the lead from it, the relationship between mother and son has long been repaired.
However, he has already reached the crown, and he will soon marry the crown princess, and it stands to reason that he is already an adult. But now that Li is curing this disease, he is not letting him be imprisoned in the country. Instead, let Empress Wu be regent, he didn't feel anything, but the discussion outside made him very upset, even the subordinate officials of the East Palace. often openly and secretly said something in front of him, and some had no land.
There is an emperor and queen living in Penglai Palace, and this Taiji Palace is naturally quite cold. This afternoon. Out of the East Palace, he unconsciously turned to the right, and immediately saw the still majestic Wude Gate. Thinking of the past when Li Xian lived in this Wude Hall and often went to the East Palace to harass and play, he unconsciously smiled and simply walked up the steps.
"Too ...... His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
There are still many palace people who served Li Xian in the past in the Wude Palace, and they were all taken aback when they saw that it was the prince. While the two of them hurriedly greeted him, their faces showed a little embarrassment, and some people even secretly looked inside. Seeing this scene, Li Hong couldn't help but feel strange, and asked casually: "What, there is someone inside?" ”
"Back to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, yes...... It was the princess and the two attendants in it. ”
There are a total of three princesses in this palace, however, the first two princesses were left by Concubine Xiao Shu, living in the court, and ordinary people can't see them at all, so there is naturally only one person who can be called a princess in the Wude Palace.
"Ling Yue?"
Li Hong had doubts in his heart, knowing that he couldn't ask anything more, so he nodded and entered the Wude Palace. Although he hadn't been here for three years, he still felt that all the furnishings were very familiar, and when he heard the sound of talking not far away, he turned around with all the familiarity. Sure enough, when he arrived at Li Xian's former dormitory, he heard Li Lingyue's familiar voice.
"Sixth brother, when will you come back!"
At first hearing this, Li Hong wanted to turn around and leave, but thinking that there were others behind him, he had to stop abruptly. Although he thinks that he is frank and has no other thoughts, he can tell adults that if his sister opens his mouth to ask him this question, how should he answer? At this moment, for the first time, he felt that Liu Renliang had given him a bad idea, not to mention anything else, if Li Xian was there, presumably those East Palace officials who dared to complain in front of him would retract.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
As soon as Ah Wei lifted the curtain, he saw Li Hong standing there with a stunned face, and hurriedly shouted. Before Li Hong could answer, two people suddenly popped out of it. As soon as the youngest princess of Taiping, Li Lingyue, saw her brother, she immediately pounced with cheers and shouted: "Fifth brother, I miss the sixth brother, woo wow!" ”
Li Hong didn't expect that he didn't say two words at all, Li Lingyue actually hugged his neck and cried, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to rack his brains to coax
Child. However, he is not as capable as Li Xiandi, but he tried his best but was slight, but in the end, Shangguan Wan'er stepped forward with a smile and solved the siege with a word.
"Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince, one sentence is worth a thousand sentences from others, as long as he lets His Royal Highness King Yong come back, can others not allow it?"
Li Lingyue's crying stopped abruptly, her eyes were still staring at Li Hong's eyes with teardrops, and her two hands were tightened, but because she was crying too hard just now, she was still a little sobbed, and her throat was stirring: "Five ...... Fifth brother, you ...... Can you really get Sixth Brother back? ”
Li Hong has always seen a well-behaved and cute or mischievous sister, how can I ever see her crying so sadly? While wiping her tears with a handkerchief, he carefully chose words to coax her, and it was easy to coax the little guy to be a little confused, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered the nurse to take her to Li Xian's bed to rest for a while, and then, his eyes fell on Shangguan Wan'er and Ah Wei.
He had indeed heard that the queen mother had named Shangguanyi's granddaughter and Wei Xuanzhen's daughter as princesses, and now he felt more and more that the two girls were indeed smart and clever. However, the thought of a younger sister being quirky enough, he suddenly had a big head.
"Ling Yue is still young and ignorant, if you encounter something like today, you can coax her more......" Halfway through the words, Li Hong suddenly got stuck, what could he say next-is it possible to persuade his sister who is only a few years old to take national affairs seriously? Embarrassed, he glanced at the familiar surroundings, sighed deeply, and walked away without looking back.
And behind him, the two little ones stared at each other with big eyes, both confused.
The distraught Li Hong changed into civilian clothes for the first time and only took two guards out of the palace, but he was a little dazed on the street. He is not like Li Xian, he has almost no friends except for his courtiers, where can he go at this time? After thinking about it, he finally thought of Xiandeju, so he beat the horse and went straight to the West Market from Chunming Street.
He, the crown prince, appeared here for the first time in several years, which surprised the shopkeeper and the guys up and down. And the moment the shopkeeper stepped forward to greet him, it was a ghost envoy who asked, "Fifth prince, Shangguan...... That Shangguan Xianggong was drinking alone in the box on the third floor, but you came to find him? ”
Li Hong originally just wanted to relieve his fatigue and didn't plan to find someone, however, as soon as he heard that Shangguan Yi was drinking on the third floor, he suddenly became interested, simply nodded his head, and followed the self-righteous shopkeeper to the third floor. Instructed two guards to guard outside, he gently pushed the door in, and saw Shangguan Yi holding a corner of wine, looking out of the window in a daze, so he gently closed the door with his backhand.
"Taifu."
Shangguan Yi was already half drunk, and at first glance he heard someone called Taifu, so he suddenly squinted his eyes and turned his head, and found that it was Li Hong, so he smiled self-deprecatingly: "This amount of wine is really getting more and more useless, and he actually looks like a prince, he is really old!" Go out, I don't need you to serve here!" ”
Seeing that Shangguan Yi, who was usually the most elegant and graceful, was talking nonsense, Li Hong wanted to laugh but still couldn't help it, so he simply sat down opposite Shangguan Yi, and without saying a word, he picked up a corner of wine and poured it into his mouth, but unexpectedly, the wine was extremely strong, and when he reached his mouth, he felt that the fire was burning, and he couldn't help coughing again and again.
"Huh?" Shangguan Yi felt that the person who came didn't look like a first-class guy, rubbed his eyes and looked at it again, this time he was finally shocked, "Prince...... Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what are you doing in a place like this? ”
"If Taifu can come, I can't come?"
The pair of masters and apprentices stared at each other for a while, and suddenly showed a bitter smile at the same time, and they actually touched the wine horn at the same time, and at the same time poured a sigh of relief. According to the law, officials are not allowed to wander around the West Market, but since Li Xian broke this rule, the emperor turned a blind eye, and this rule gradually disappeared. However, for a serious person like Shangguan Yi, breaking such a rule is still unprecedented.
"Has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince been harshly talked about lately, and he feels annoyed?"
If he faced others, Li Hong would definitely not admit it, but in the face of Shangguanyi, the Taifu, coupled with his shallow drinking, he already had some drunkenness, so he simply smiled bitterly: "I didn't think it when the sixth brother was there, but when he left, I always felt empty in my heart, but there were still people who advised me, saying that I couldn't let him come back." ”
Since he got up, he couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly slammed the table twice with his hand: "Taifu, do you know what someone behind my back said to me?" They said that the queen mother was able to win the power of hundreds of officials by relying on the sixth brother, and said that without the sixth brother and the queen mother, she could go to one arm, and I, the prince of the prison country, would be able to justify my name! That's my mother, my brother, how can I just be right...... Just ......"
Looking at Li Hong's blushing face, Shangguan Yi sighed deeply again. The prime minister is annoyed, the prince is annoyed, presumably the queen in the palace is also annoyed, everyone is annoyed, but I don't know if the son of heaven who is recuperating in the Penglai Palace is annoying?
