When he came out of the main hall, the first thing Zhongchen did was to let out a deep sigh.

"Your Excellency Second Son......" Wu Luo on the side couldn't help but frown his eyebrows worriedly when he saw this kind of expression on this young man's face for the first time: "Is it okay?" ”

"What's in the way?" Zhongchen Bu waited and smiled slightly, looked up at the sky that was already gloomy to almost gray ink, and his eyes were confused: "What's in the way?" Such a person is invincible. At least Yu is no match for such a character no matter what. Not to mention ......"

He smiled to himself: "What's more, the elder brother has no intention of watching Yu Zai on this matter, and he is entangled, right?" ”

Wu Luo replied, and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then Your Excellency the Second Prince, will you return to the country?" ”

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has decreed that he will stay in the Tang Kingdom and return to China only after the New Year's celebration of the great court meeting with the thousands of officials of the country...... How can Yu say that he wants to resign at this time? Not to mention ......"

Zhongchen Bubi stared ahead, and said in a low voice: "What's more, the matter of ordering Yu to come to the Tang Kingdom was originally a big move that my father had painstakingly prepared in order to save Yu's life, just waiting for Yu to rejuvenate my Zhongchen clan in the future?" In this case, if Yu left at this time, wouldn't it be in vain to waste his father's painstaking efforts, and put the future of the entire Zhongchen clan into a very uneasy situation? ”

Wu Luo secretly screamed ashamed and claimed to this little boy Lian.

"But ......"

Zhongchen Bu Wait turned his head, looking at this loyal retainer who escorted him to the Tang Kingdom thousands of miles away along the way, and quickly helped him find a foothold and protection here, his eyes were slightly complicated:

"But if it's possible, Yu really hopes to be able to watch you return to Dongying and return to your father's side. At least...... I also hope that you can accompany your father on behalf of Yu and meet the next things. ”

"Young master."

Wu Luozi regained his calm expression, and only said in a low voice after a while: "Young Master, you still give up such an idea...... After all, for the current adults, Wu Luo's return to his side has only done a hundred harms, but no benefits. ”

“…… So you want to say that you, like Yu, are all for the people who were forced to exile by the Zhongchen clan or the Suga clan...... Really? ”

Zhongchen didn't wait for a faint smile and said no more.

On the other side, inside the East Palace.

Li Hong, who was sitting around the charcoal fire in his fox fur and holding Xue Xuanqi, his eyes were brightened by the red charcoal light: "Oh...... He didn't plan to leave......"

"Yes."

Beside him, Jing'an replied in a low voice, and at the same time glanced at Li Xian, who was listening carefully to their conversation, and then continued: "Not only did he not plan to leave, as far as Jing'an knows, this second son of the Dongying Zhongchen clan has even ordered his close ministers to buy real estate in Chang'an Jingzhong, and it seems that he is going to stay in my Tang Dynasty for a long time." Your Highness, do you want to watch some of them? ”

"If you have to."

Li Hong waved his hand and drove away the moth that hovered over his head and greedy for warmth for his younger brother, and then looked at the charcoal fire calmly and said: "After all, he is the minister of the enemy country, and in the current situation, maybe one day the empress of Dongying will start a war with my Tang Dynasty." If he is there, it may come in handy in the future. You must have someone to protect him. If that day comes......

Maybe he is the father and queen mother, and he is the most advantageous card in my Datang hand.

So no matter what, we can't let him slip up the slightest. The people around him also have to be filtered one by one, especially the Su I clan Lianzi - this palace heard that although the Su I clan is now big, it is a big trouble for the empress, and sooner or later it will be eradicated. And the Zhongchen clan is loyal to the current Dongying court, if there is really a day when the benefits and disadvantages are added in the future, maybe the Suga clan will have to do something to this Zhongchen Bubi and others. ”

Jing'an also nodded in response: "Jing'an is exactly what she guessed about, so she went to Dongying early in the morning, looking for an opportunity to spy on the inside story, and I thought that there would be news in return." ”

Li Hong snorted, and after a few more words, he ordered Jing'an to go down.

Li Xian, who was on the side, watched Jing'an go down, and finally surrounded his brother again: "Why does my brother care so much about this minister?" Just because he is a little bold, dare to come to our Datang by himself and bring a few generals? ”

"If that's the case, then he can only be regarded as a bold person at most, but he can't be regarded as a figure that people can't ignore, right?" Li Hong smiled happily, stretched out his hand and put the already dazy Xue Qiyi on the side of the blanket to fall asleep, turned around to open the charcoal cage, pulled the charcoal with the fire boy a few times, covered it, cleaned his hands, and then smiled and hugged his coquettish little brother into his arms, and asked: "You have also heard a lot of things about this Zhongchen clan with your brother in the past few days, and you should also know that the current Zhongchen clan seems to be full of flowers, but in fact it is precarious?" ”

"This is natural. The empress was very suspicious, since she would never let go of the Su My Clan, how could the Zhongchen Yi Clan, who was put on the stage by her brothers, participated in the struggle for power, and was privately called the style of the Su My Clan, how could she easily keep it? ”

"That's right...... That's why his father needs to keep this single seedling that he is optimistic about for something that may happen in the future—or rather, such a precious single seedling that he will send to the side of the monarch of the strongest empire in the world to save his life at the risk of losing it...... Brother Xian, think about what we have heard about the Dinghui monk before, and then think about the man who can use his eldest son as a chess piece without changing his face, and refuse to let go of the slightest usefulness, and even gave his eldest son's life to Bai in the hands of Jin Chunqiu, the lord of Silla, how could he risk the big risk that once he was found to be the second son of Bao and sent it to the important minister of the Tang State to hide his surname, the whole clan would be wiped out, and he gave away a useless second son in vain? ”

Li Xian blinked, and finally understood after a while: "It seems that the mind of that Zhongchen's sickle foot is very deep!" Brother, will he be happy? ”

"What's this......" Li Hong looked at the big treasure hall in the distance, and happily hooked the corners of his lips: "Then it depends on how the queen mother feels." ”

A few days later.

The first snow in the fourth winter of Datang Xianqing finally began to fall in pieces.

In the Jiucheng Palace, Mei Niang sat quietly in front of the charcoal fire, listening to the return of Yuru, who had re-dressed in palace clothes: "...... The Zhongchen is indeed as Niangniang expected, these days, he has put on a worry-free and noble situation, and befriended the kings and grandsons everywhere in Chang'an City, and has also had a lot of love with the princesses of several countries who came with the king...... It seems that he really wants to take advantage of the power of the nations in the future. ”

Mei Niang was silent for a moment, and suddenly spoke: "Tomorrow, this palace wants to see him." ”

"But Niangniang, the last time you wanted to see this child, you were personally blocked by the Lord, and at the cost of personally summoning the tasting, you exchanged your promise. Now if you want to force him again......"

"This time, no matter what, Hongu wants to see this child with his own eyes. You tell Jiro this sentence as it is. Mei Niang's eyes were resolute and her voice was soft.

Yes, she must meet the child.
