Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Stockings Turmoil
Liang Wangfu. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The people sent by Changsun Chong had not yet entered the door, but they saw Yang Kang, the commander of the Liang Wangfu Army, at the gate of the courtyard. They were familiar, and the person who came asked, "Yang Dianjun, is your prince here?" ”
Yang Kang saw the person who came and said with a smile: "It's Xiao Li, my prince is in the mansion, do you have something to do with him?" ”
Changsun Chong's entourage said: "My patriarch, Sun Gongzi, invite him to the workshop for a gathering. ”
Yang Kang said: "It's not the right time for you to come, my prince has just received a decree from Concubine Yang and invited him to enter the palace." ”
At this moment, Li Su came out. When Changsun Chong's entourage saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, my son-in-law has something urgent to see you. He's waiting for you in the workshop. ”
Li Su stretched his waist and said, "I know, I'm afraid it won't work today, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”
The entourage of the eldest grandson Chong said: "My son-in-law said, no matter how late it is, he will wait for you, please be sure to appreciate the light." ”
"Well, it's hard for the king to say, maybe the concubine wants to keep the king for dinner. When will he leave the palace, this king really can't say. Li Su said.
Changsun Chong's entourage said, "Okay, I'll go back and tell my son-in-law." However, my lord, if you can get out of the palace, send someone to the church to report a message. ”
"Okay, tell your son-in-law, if it's late, go back first, and the king will make an appointment with him tomorrow." After speaking, Li Su got in the car and left.
Changsun Chong's entourage returned to the workshop and reported the situation to Changsun Chong. The eldest grandson Chong was helpless, so he had to ask Cheng Chumo, the son of Cheng Guogong, to bite Jin.
Besides, Li Su, after entering the palace, came to the Chenghui Hall where Concubine Yang lived.
As soon as I entered the guest room, I saw that my brother Li Ke was also there. As soon as he saw Li Su, he was dissatisfied and said, "Today is the third year of junior high school, where have you been hiding for the past two days?" On the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the princes and princesses, even the 2-year-old little royal brother, let his mother and concubine hug him, and they all went to pay New Year's greetings to his father, but you are not there, you are such a big shelf. ”
Li Su asked rhetorically: "Excuse me, my father and the queen, have you ever asked about me?" ”
"Who do you think you are? Will your father ask you specifically? Cut. Li Ke said disdainfully.
Li Su said: "This is amazing, no one cares about me anyway, what am I going to do?" Like you said, there are so many princes and princesses, one more of me and one less of me, what's the big deal? Besides, you are a celebrity in the eyes of your father, can we have you to represent you? lest I take a share of your glory. ”
The two of them have always been like this, and they often quarrel.
At this time, Concubine Yang came in, and Li Su stepped forward to salute her.
Concubine Yang didn't blame Li Su, and asked with concern: "Su'er, you can't drink enough, so you should drink less in the future, so as not to hurt your body." How's it going, are you okay? ”
"It's still my mother who feels sorry for me." Li stammered with a grin.
In the past few days, Concubine Yang has been in a good mood, and when she saw her two sons today, she was very happy, so she kept talking to them, and she really left them for dinner.
Before dinner, taking advantage of the convenience of Li Ke going out, Concubine Yang looked at her youngest son, stopped talking, and suddenly blushed. She said with a little twist: "Child, do you still have those stockings you bought?" If you have any, get some more for the concubine. Also, don't give it to other women. ”
Hearing his mother's words, Li Su suddenly understood something. The harem concubines compete for favor, and the fierceness of the palace fight is no less than the fight on the battlefield. Stockings are definitely a woman's weapon. No wonder the mother said that.
He deeply understood his mother's feelings and said, "Understood, mother. The stockings child has it, as much as you want, the child will give you less. In addition, the child has other better clothes that women like, and in a few days, the child will bring them to you. ”
What Li Su said was a woman's bra and other underwear, and it was inconvenient for him to say what it was, anyway, if it was sent, women in this era would definitely like it.
Concubine Yang was pleasantly surprised, she believed what her youngest son said, and now she began to look forward to it.
What Li Su didn't know was that the stockings he gave to Concubine Yang had caused a lot of turmoil in the harem.
Concubine Yang's skin is white and delicate, her figure is slender, and the temptation of stockings makes Tang Taizong, who met him for the first time, very shocked.
From the past year to today, except for the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Tang Taizong spent the night at Empress Changsun's place, and he has spent the past few days continuously at Concubine Yang's place. Concubine Yang is beautiful, but the other ladies in the palace are also stunners. Tang Taizong's abnormal behavior has already attracted serious attention from other concubines.
The concubines all sent their henchmen to secretly inquire about what happened to Concubine Yang and why the emperor stayed in the Chenghui Hall (where Concubine Yang lived).
Soon, the results came out, and the palace maids inquired that Concubine Yang had got a kind of socks called stockings, which were smoother and elastic than silk, and they were rare treasures.
Concubine Yang's personal palace maid Ju Xiang also has a pair, and she once showed off to her little sisters.
This news made the concubines in the harem unanimously envious, jealous and hateful, and they thought that Tang Taizong was partial and had good things for Concubine Yang. So they reported to the eldest grandson queen.
Empress Eldest Sun didn't believe that Li Shimin would be partial, but the concubines said that they had noses and eyes, which made her a little curious.
This morning, Empress Changsun made a special trip to Concubine Yang Niangniang and talked about this matter.
Concubine Yang and Empress Changsun have always had a good relationship, and when she saw Empress Changsun asking about it, she embarrassedly took out a pair of stockings and showed them to Empress Changsun.
After the eldest grandson queen saw it, she couldn't help but blush, and Concubine Yang had no choice but to cut her love and give the eldest grandson queen a pair. And said that she herself is not much. Prevent other concubines from coming to her again.
Empress Changsun understands her feelings, such a treasure is definitely a woman's favorite, and it is understandable that she is unwilling to give it away. She decided to keep it a secret for Concubine Yang.
However, the matter was not over here, and the other concubines soon made trouble with Li Shimin. As soon as Li Shimin guessed, he knew that these things were obtained by his son Li Su, who was known as the head of the three evils.
Li Shimin is now also curious about his unsuccessful son and wants to ask him. However, these days, he is too busy and stressful to take care of it.
In the afternoon, Li Su entered the palace, and a eunuch saw it and reported it to the chief eunuch Wang De. What do the eunuchs do? Their survival is completely dependent on the royal family, and mastering the whereabouts of the royal family members is one of their ways to survive.
Wang De saw that some concubines reported about Concubine Yang's mother, and Li Shimin wanted to see Li Su, so he told him that Li Su went to see Concubine Yang's mother. Li Shimin originally didn't plan to go to Concubine Yang Niangniang today, but when he heard that Li Su was coming, he walked towards the Chenghui Hall (where Concubine Yang lived).
The news soon spread to the other concubines, and jealousy was rife in the harem.
Concubine Yang and her two sons were about to eat, and when the emperor arrived, Li Su felt uncomfortable for a while.
Originally, eating was to enjoy the pleasure of food, but eating with the emperor was a very hard job. Two words: uncomfortable. Three words: very uncomfortable!
Li Su used to dislike his cheap emperor father, because he had never given Li Su a good look. Recently, because Li Su gave Li Shimin a few treasures, coupled with the conflict with Xue Yantuo last time, Li Shimin finally gave him a few smiles.
Li Su finished his meal like chewing wax, and he was not full at all, so he was ready to take his leave and go back, so that he could eat again.
Unexpectedly, Li Shimin said: "Aifei, Ke'er, you go down first, I want to talk to Su'er alone." ”
