Body 943 Candidates for the Crown Prince

Li Xian, who had just returned to the mansion, walked into the living room with Fang Muqing, who had come back a few days earlier than him and cleaned up the mansion with his subordinates, Fang Muqing looked at Li Xian with some worried eyes.

Li Xian looked at Fang Muqing's worried and anxious eyes, smiled gently, grabbed Fang Muqing's hand and said, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"Your Highness...... The concubine wants you to ....... Fang Muqing moved her lips, but she didn't know what to say.

Back then, she failed to persuade her husband and father, but now that her husband is being targeted again, who knows if her husband will once again lose his mood and fall for someone else's fool again.

"Don't worry, no matter how stupid I, Li Xian, am in the eyes of outsiders, I won't be really stupid enough to ignore current affairs, Pei Qing Lao'er is a stupid pig, let him toss by himself, I won't participate." Li Xian continued to smile, took Fang Muqing's hand, and sat down on the chair next to him.

"So what does Pei Qing want to do? Why did you find you just after you came back, the concubine thought, no matter what, we have persevered in the past three years, and we don't have to think about those ...... anymore. ”

"I know this, don't worry, you don't really think that I, Li Xian, am also stupid, right?" Li Xian continued to smile mildly and said: "Everyone in the world thinks that I, Li Xian, are stupid, but this stupidity is compared to Li Hong, if I am with Pei Qing and others...... None of them deserve to be compared to me. ”

"Then what do they want, so they are not afraid that Your Majesty will trouble them?" Fang Muqing was still not at ease, and continued to pull the one-armed Li Xian's hand and asked.

Li Xian sighed slightly, thought for a while and said: "What else can it be, the imperial palace has never been a completely isolated place, and in the imperial city of tens of thousands of people, it is normal for there to be many ears and eyes that go directly to the outside world. Li Hong wanted to confer the title of Li Cheng and Li Nan, one as the king of Jiling and the other as the king of the East China Sea, and in less than half a day, it had already spread among the ministers. This naturally made Pei Qing a little anxious. ”

"Just because of the matter of Lichu? What's the use of him being in a hurry? Fang Muqing let go of Li Xian's hand and bit his lip lightly, he couldn't figure out what Pei Qing was doing with him, how could he be involved in the royal affairs!

"Pei Qing and Queen Pei Wanying are relatives, and they have not been promoted over the years, when Pei Xingjian was still in the court, he ignored this younger brother, except for the word justice, Pei Xingjian has already seen through it, his younger brother does not have any superior vision and talent, so he didn't think about promoting him, it was really just and fair. For so many years, because Pei Xingjian was suppressed in the court, Pei Qing had nothing to say, no matter what, at least with Pei Xingjian, he Pei Qing could move around in the positions of various governors and assassins, Pei Qing originally hoped that when Pei Xingjian retired successfully, his brother would be able to find a position in Chang'an for him, or the position of Jingzhao Mansion, but Pei Xingjian didn't even think about it, and he didn't have this idea at all. Li Xian took the tea handed over by Fang Muqing, looked at the inferior tea leaves that were still floating back and forth on the water and did not sink, blew up the first few green leaves, and took a sip before putting it down.

"So as soon as Lord Pei Xingjian retreated, Pei Qing began to want to find a way out for himself?" Fang Muqing thought for a while and asked.

"Yes, the brother who originally relied on him didn't pull him in the end, so he began to hit the queen in the palace, before the queen entered the palace, you also know that Pei Qing and other Pei Xingjian's relatives don't care about Pei Xingjian, a foreign minister in Tibet, so they rarely interact with Pei Xingjian's family. After the queen entered the palace, the Pei family naturally became the backbone of the Pei clan, the relatives who never came to the door back then, would be placed in the house every once in a while, the queen knew the thoughts of these people, over the years, whether it was the queen, or Pei Xingjian or Mrs. Pei, the various gifts received by the clan relatives did not exceed ten taels of silver, and the return gifts were equal, but they didn't want to get too close to these relatives, and finally took advantage of their reputation. Li Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly, the affairs in the palace seemed to be settled by Li Hong, but the involvement between the outside of the palace and the palace was so easy to break.

Whether it is Pei Xingjian or Pei Wanying, which one will more or less receive criticism and pressure from the clan, but since they are loyal to the court and Li Hong, Pei Xingjian and Pei Wanying can only admit it even if they feel guilty about the Pei family's clan, just as loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, the kinship in the world is even more so, no one dares to say that they can achieve the satisfaction of all parties.

"Pei Qing was in a hurry, afraid that he would only stay in the position of assassin in the future, so he couldn't take advantage of the queen, so he hit the idea on the young emperor's eldest son, and began to think about taking shortcuts, hoping that one day, after His Majesty made Li Ye the crown prince, he would be able to get close to the water and get the moon first, and be the first to become a confidant and good minister in front of the prince?" Fang Muqing blinked, but Li Xian read a trace of doubt and worry from those still bright and beautiful eyes.

"Yes, this is Pei Qing's abacus, an extremely stupid abacus, but he can still fool some bigger fools who want to be promoted and make a fortune, then Lin Zhongyu is one of them, and he really believes that Pei Qing can lead them to rise to prominence and become loyal ministers and good generals in the temple in the future." Li Xian shook his head, looked at the unresolved doubt in Fang Muqing's eyes and said: "I have been filial piety for three years, and I have never asked about Chang'an and the court, and I can even let go of Jiling City, not to mention that now a court that has nothing to do with me, these are sometimes mentioned to me by Li Dan, Li Zhe, or Li Hong when they visit their father." ”

After listening to Li Xian's explanation, Fang Muqing was obviously relieved, and after his towering chest rose and fell a few times in succession, there was a cold smile on his face just now, and only then did he turn back to a gentle appearance.

"So, Your Majesty knows everything about Pei Qing?" Fang Muqing's tone was obviously relaxed.

"He knew some, but how much he knew, he didn't say. However, he also knew it from Pei Xingjian, and now that Li Ye is involved, most of them are used by Pei Qing ....... ”

"That'...... Then you....... Fang Muqing looked at Li Xian and suddenly became swallowed.

"Me?" Li Xian smiled, stroked Fang Muqing's cheek and said: "Don't worry about it, Li Hong is famous for protecting calves, cold-blooded and cruel, it is an outsider, but internally to his courtiers, he has always been very fair and selfless, this matter, Li Ye will be fine, if my guess is right, Li Ye will not be made the prince in a short time." ”

"Ye'er is also very good to our mother and son, and they will come to visit us every New Year's holiday, a few of which are Pei Wanying's ideas, and occasionally he will sneak out by himself to give the boss some convenience, even if the country is in prison, Li Ye has always protected them, so ......."

"This is not a matter of course, Li Ye's pure heart is of course good, but what I said about Li Ye will not be made a prince in a short period of time, it does not mean that he will not be established as a prince in the future, it just shows that Li Hong has no plans to establish a prince now."

"You can give the prince ......."

"Two different things, Li Hong has never followed the way of ordinary people, and others are even more difficult to guess, Li Cheng, Li Nan, especially Li Cheng, is only six or seven years old now, this is to catch ducks on the shelves, forced by the situation. If it weren't for my father and mother, who wanted Li Hong to recall me back to Chang'an, Li Hong would not have done this. Li Xian smiled open-mindedly, he didn't feel pity at all for losing Jiling City, which he had worked hard for many years.

"That's good, this kid is good, all these years...... Even the queen mother takes good care of our mother and son, so I hope that this child can ...... in the future. Fang Muqing said later, she didn't know what she wanted to say, in short, what she didn't want the most was that the people and things of the next generation would be like this generation, at least not like His Majesty and her husband back then.

"Do you need to tell Your Majesty about today's events?" Fang Muqing thought about it, and still felt that it was a little inappropriate for Li Xian to be so relaxed, he had just returned to Chang'an and was targeted by someone with a heart, who knows if His Majesty would have other thoughts in his heart.

"Those things that I shouldn't worry about, let the people clean up the house as soon as possible, maybe tomorrow, someone will come to our house, and no one knows what kind of heart will be settled at that time." Li Xian exhaled a long breath, then got up and stretched and said.

Fang Muqing nodded silently, and then walked out of the room, although she was a woman, she also knew that Li Hong's recruitment of Li Xian at this time was basically related to the Great Food Messenger.

In another room of Shengyun Building, at this time, it was already a long time of singing and dancing, a woman dressed in tulle, graceful snow-white, concave and convex body looming, even the woman sitting in the corner stroking the piano and playing the kite, is also wearing a tulle cover, the obscene clothes inside are naturally clear, slender thighs and the perfect curve of the buttocks are looming, adding a seductive beauty.

Chen Jingzhi in the second year after Pei Xingjian's successful retirement, and after Li Hong's permission, he finally began to live in Chang'an City, and Pei Xingjian formed a deep friendship with him, the most in the past two years is to quarrel with Pei Xingjian, scold each other, and then who lost, the next day he carried the wine bottle, ran to someone's house, and rubbed a Chinese meal and lunch with a dead face.

In general, a bottle of wine can make each other bleed a sum of silver, and it can be regarded as getting some of the face lost in the scolding battle the day before back from the wine and vegetables.

Pei Qing's purpose is very simple, the method used to save himself is obviously impossible to find Dali Temple or the Criminal Department, even if it is Yushitai to let himself go in Suizhou in the past two years, taking advantage of the reputation of the emperor's eldest son Li Ye to accept bribes, buy and sell officials.

Instead, he planned to go all out, hoping to persuade these influential ministers who were above the court back then, as well as some courtiers and royal relatives who were close to His Majesty the Emperor, to unite with His Majesty in Cambodia and establish the emperor's eldest son Li Ye as the crown prince as soon as possible.

And then use this to solve his current internal and external troubles and urgent needs, and only in this way can he have the opportunity to turn the big things into small and small things in front of His Majesty, so that he can really enter the eyes of those bigwigs in the court.
