Xiao Liangdi was overjoyed, but said quietly on her face:

"The man is reliable?"

"The master can rest assured, although it is not as good as the medicine prince, but the slave maid has also inquired, and many noble wives have used his prescription to get a man in one fell swoop."

Xiao Liangdi smiled a little: "Tomorrow, tomorrow will be the time when Your Highness is fortunate that we are in the courtyard - you have to prepare this medicinal soup first!" ”

"Yes!"

It's night.

Mei Niang and Xu Hui live in the palace.

Xu Hui went to bed tonight, leaving Mei Niang alone, guarding a lone lamp.

Ryan was reluctantly entering, as she carefully excerpted her grandson's words. Seeing him like this, he stopped writing and smiled:

"What's wrong? So unhappy? ”

Ryan sighed for a long time:

"Ryan feels sorry for His Highness...... Tonight, I'm going to Kona Myeongtokuin again. ”

When Mei Niang heard this, she smiled and bowed her head silently.

Seeing this, Ryan hurriedly said:

"Sister Wu, Your Highness, he ......"

"I know. Needless to say...... I know. ”

Mei Niang's heart was slightly sour, and she said lightly:

"He can't escape these things. I know...... After all...... After all, he can't escape.

Once he becomes a reserve, there will be such things. In the future, he ascended the throne and became the emperor, and such things were inevitable.

I know...... I've known for a long time......"

Hung his head and said nothing.

Ryan sighed softly.

……

In the middle of December of the 19th year of Zhenguan, the crown prince Li Zhi was on the table, because there was a shortage of the secretary of the ministry, please order Ma Zhou to take up the post with the Chinese book. Taizong Zhun. After Ma Zhou was appointed to the court, he immediately went to the table and asked Taizong to choose officials at the fourth time, saying that this matter was very troublesome. Taizong Zhun is a resumption of the Sui system, especially in November of each year, and ends in March of the following year.

At the end of December of the 19th year of Zhenguan.

When Taizong heard the good news, he said:

"When the Lord was in Dingzhou, he was ill, and Liu Xun and Ma Zhou looked forward to it. After returning, the minister asked the two how they were, and Liu Xunai said: "The military affairs are not enough to worry about, but follow the affairs of Yiyin and Huo Guang, assist the young prince, punish the foreign ministers, and naturally stabilize." ”

Taizong was displeased, so he summoned Liu Xun to ask him personally, and Liu Xun said:

"When the minister returned that day, he said, 'The Eucharist has carbuncles, and there is great fear in the heart,' and nothing else."

When Ma Zhou was also standing on the side, he could also testify.

Taizong hesitated, but summoned Sui Liang to ask him again.

Yu Nai Dao:

When the minister heard this, Ma Zhou was not on his side. And Liu Xun is a person, the lord knows it, and the minister has never spoken in vain. And at that time, many other ministers were present, and the Lord could inquire about them.

The minister is willing to swear that if the minister has a false word to cause trouble to Liu Xun, he should not be in a good place, and his descendants will not be safe if he dies. ”

Taizong did not doubt it, so he summoned the ministers referred to by Yu Suiliang - all of them were important ministers of the Long family - to enter, inquire about it, and indeed said so.

Taizong was furious, so he issued an edict and gave Liu Yi a pot of poisonous wine.

According to the rumors, the courtiers had no intention of helping, but Ma Zhou once sighed that Liu Yi was sad.

In Liu's mansion, before Liu Xun was about to be decided, he cried and told his second son Hongye Dao:

"The son should know that the injustice of the father is all done by Yu Suiliang, and then he makes the other person, the eldest grandson Wuji. This Guan Long is a great dragon in the future, and it will definitely endanger the community in the future, so he should try to make the Lord know about it. ”

Hongye swore with tears:

"In this life, I will not get rid of thieves, and I will not be a man!"

Liu Xun asked for pen and paper again, and wanted to invite Taizong on the table. But the Constitutional Priest who came to prison did not do so.

Liu Xun was resentful, but he had no choice but to die with poisonous wine.

The eldest son, Guangzong, was weak and couldn't weep. The second son, Hongye, told Taizong about the matter of the Daoxian Division with a book.

When Taizong heard this, he was angry, and all the constitutional ministers were imprisoned, and he sighed and whispered to his close servant Wang Dedao:

"Why don't I know that Liu Xun's death is really a strange injustice?

However, he is a minister, but he does not know the reason of the master. In my heart, I only have my own so-called righteousness. and he put the prince of a nation without land. Among the hundred officials, except for Ma Zhou, there is no longer a single minister......

If I use it forcibly, it is a childish slave who is kind and forbearing, how can the ministers endure it? Helpless, it's really self-defeating......"

Wang De also sighed when he heard this, Taizong took pity on his second son, but he was not guilty of the crime, and he still continued to use his original position. Liu's Mansion will not change it.

The first month of the twentieth year of Zhenguan.

Yuan Zhengri.

The eastern capital of Luoyang, Fanghua Garden.

Taizong was uneasy, and the Goryeo campaign was quite a loss, so he ordered that he should not do anything to increase the suffering of the people. Serve both inside and out.

Therefore, on the day and night of Yuanzheng, Taizong feasted in the Xianren Palace to comfort the kings and concubines.

According to the etiquette, the concubines of Taizong should sit in separate halls with the prince's concubines, but the princess Wang, as the main concubine, is allowed to sit in the same hall with the prince Li Zhi. For some reason, I was able to see the concubines of Taizong.

As soon as she entered, her gaze was firmly on Wu Zhao, a talented person from Taizong, and she never moved away for a moment, and her complexion was even more snow-white, like a piece of white paper.

Taizong and the concubines were all surprised, and the crown prince Li Zhi was even more uneasy.

Taizong asked the crown princess and said:

"But the son-in-law knows the girl?"

When the crown princess heard Taizong's question, she knew that she was rude, but she was slightly pale and crossed her hands as a courtesy:

"When the concubine was at home, she heard that there was a girl in the palace, with a beautiful complexion and amazing dancing skills. Concubine He His Majesty, happy beauty. ”

Taizong smiled and rewarded, and the prince was very uncomfortable.

Mei Niang realized that the beautiful woman in front of her was the wife of the prince Li Zhi, and she was also sympathetic in her heart.

The Xu family knew what was going on around him, and he urgently told Taizong that Mei Niang was quite drunk, please help him to rest, Taizong Zhun. When the crown princess heard this woman's words, she knew that she was a sister of Wu Zhao, so she deliberately looked at it carefully, and examined it more carefully for a long time, but she didn't know that everything fell into the eyes of the prince Li Zhi and the Taizong on the side.

Prince Taizong's father and son both disliked his gaze. On the side, Concubine Wei and Concubine De Yan looked at it, but they all sighed in their hearts:

This woman is smart, but she can't be a good fruit after all.

Xu Chongrong sent Mei Niang off, was recalled to the banquet, Fang Fang sat down, and Taizong asked Mei Niang about it. Xu Huinai said with a smile, Taizong was quite pitiful, and was about to beckon her to come forward, when she saw Yufeng, the maid of the Xiao family, the prince of the lower hall, hurriedly came to report, and the Xiao family fainted suddenly.

The crown prince Li Zhi was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly invited Ming Taizong to go down to the court to look at it.

Sure enough, when I got down to the hall, I saw that Xiao was unconscious.

Li Zhi loved Xiao Liangdi a lot, so he immediately passed on the imperial doctor.

However, when the imperial doctor entered, he didn't know what the symptoms were, but he seemed to have a disease of lack of qi and blood. The crown prince Li Zhinai personally helped Xiao Liangdi into the main hall of the East Palace to take care of him.

When the crown princess heard this, she secretly hated it in her heart.

It's night.

The crown prince Li Zhi returned to the main hall and asked Xiao Liangdi about her illness, and Liangdi wept in Li Zhi's chest and said:

"It's too late for the concubine to be red, and it should be happy again (that is, pregnant). However, this time he fainted, but not because of this. The concubine is strong, but she is afraid of someone who has a heart. ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he was also surprised and delighted, and thought about it again and again, but he was allowed to stay in the main hall from now on, and only wait for the expiration of March before returning to Fangyuan when he was happy. More importantly, inside and outside, there must be no good things to be revealed.

However, this matter is very big, and it is known to everyone in the palace from time to time.

Taizong was displeased when he heard this, so he summoned Li Zhi into the inner hall and said: "The main hall of the prince, even the concubine can't live for a long time, let alone the concubine?" When he returned to his courtyard, if he was worried about his integrity, he ordered Jin Wuwei to add more manpower. ”

Li Zhi was condemned, so that Xiao Liangdi could return to Liufang Courtyard, and he was even more willing to protect him.

Xiao Liangdi's dream came true, but she hated it. Later, Yufeng, a servant close to him, reported the rumors, but the little attendant on the side of the princess reported to Taizong that she knew the new hatred and the old hatred, and she was not kind to the princess.

On the other side, the princess was retribution, and Dao Xiao Liangdi first secretly sent the close attendant to tell Taizong, and the prince was courteous and allowed him to stay in the main hall, and then falsely accused the prince, and the Taoist secretly reported the matter, and it was the princess who was condemned.

The crown princess was furious. And I even heard that the close servants reported that the fetus that Xiao Liangdi was pregnant with this time was obtained by secretly summoning doctors outside the palace and asking for children. And it is said that this side is miraculous, and you will get a son. He was also persuaded by Xiao Liangdi's scheming heart.

The crown princess was furious, so she put down the matter of plotting Wu Zhao, the person in the prince's hand painting, to make Xiao Liangdi fall out of favor.

However, because of Li Zhi's proper protection, in March of the twentieth year of Zhenguan, when Taizong returned to Chang'an, the crown princess was not counted. When Xiao Liangdi was happy, he reported to Taizong, Taizong diagnosed it with the doctor, and pushed it from the inner palace secret table, Dao Liangdi's fetus must be a man, and Taizong was overjoyed. The crown princess was shocked, and she was tired and restless when she returned to the capital, and after returning to the East Palace, she became ill and became increasingly uneasy.

……

The seventh day of the third month of the twentieth year of Zhenguan.

At the beginning of Taizong's return to Beijing, he rewarded his family for his meritorious work a few days ago, and even edicted his father Li Jingdao:

"I am trapped in the country of Xiaoyi with the soldiers of the world, what is the explanation?"

Li Jing replied: "This matter can only be solved by the Taoist Sect. ”

Taizong is to consult Jiangxia Wang Daozong on this matter. Daozong Chen told that when he was stationed in Huashan, he asked Taizong to take the opportunity to take Pyongyang.

However, Taizong didn't remember it, and he couldn't stop it.

……

It's night.

Tai Chi Palace.

East Palace.

And all the men went to bed. Only in the main hall of Li, a candlelight is bright.

After Li Zhi sat down at the desk for a few days, he put on his bedclothes, and just carefully held a jade paper iron filled with hot water (a kind of jade iron, the inside is hollowed out, small and flat. Add boiling water when you use it, and then close the lid tightly, you can use it to iron out the wrinkled paper) Iron those picture scrolls that were pinched by the crown princess with some fine folds, a few scattered black hairs, and disobediently brushed to the chest.

But he didn't pay any attention to it, just concentrated on ironing.

After a short time, De'an slowly entered the hall and carried a brocade box in his hand.

Li Zhi saw that he looked uneasy, so he put down the paper iron in his hand and said lightly:

"She confiscated?"

De'an shook his head: "Sister Wu refused to accept it, but Sister Xu was the master and accepted the things." Your Highness, Ryan said, there is a message for De'an.

He said: Although Sister Wu is strong, she is a woman after all. Although she knew that His Highness had difficulties, she was inevitably sad after all. It's good to keep some sense of proportion these days.

Just wait for Sister Wu to figure it out, and then ......"

"If she figures it out, I'm afraid she'll have to leave me...... I can't afford to lose her ...... again," Li Zhi said depressedly. Then he looked at the scroll on the case and saw that it was as smooth as new, so he only rolled it up gently, retied it, and handed it over to Minghe, who was standing aside, before he said:

"How is it in the Temple of Grace? And what about Yichun Palace? ”
