When Yu Chengen was in Jingzhou some time ago, he saw Tang Kuan and other twenty or thirty new governors of large and small states escorting thousands of stones, grains and grass to supplement the Shenhe army, and he thought that the imperial court was paying a lot of taxes. When he left Jingzhou this time, he had specially told his cronies to bring back the two boxes of sess that he had looted after moving to the western frontier back to his own mansion in Chang'an in the future, so that he could use it in the court and the palace.

Niangniang's words made our family feel quite guilty. Niangniang, Your Royal Highness, our family has been in the army for many years, and has been repeatedly captured, including many rare things, and our family is willing to dedicate all of them to His Royal Highness for the use of military funds for the imperial court. ”

Yu Chengen gritted his teeth and presented a big gift to Li Qi in front of Jing Xuan.

Sure enough, Li Qi saw that Yu Chengen actually took the initiative to dedicate the treasures he had collected for many years to help the military funds, and couldn't help but look at him with admiration, and asked him with a little apology: "Lord Yu knows Laixing'er?" ”

Yu Chengen listened to King Mu take the initiative to talk to him, and knew that his bitter trick had an immediate effect. After he met Lai Xing'er in Jingzhou, he secretly ordered the eyeliner in the palace to visit Xing'er's situation in the palace, knowing that he was quite favored by Jing Xuan, so he deliberately asked where Lai Xing'er went, wanting to attract Jing Xuan's attention and divert the topic from the "silkworm clothes".

What surprised Yu Chengen a little was that Jing Xuan did not follow his hint to talk about Xing'er, but it was Li Qi, the king of peace, who opened his mouth first.

"Back to His Royal Highness, when our family served the first emperor in the East Palace in the past, we had a lot of contacts with Lai Xing'er's father, Lai Shenxing, and they had a lot of contacts, and Lai Xing'er was our family's son and nephew. Shi Cai heard Niangniang call him the former head of the Yanying Palace, thinking that he has now left the Yanying Palace, and he doesn't know where to go, so he asked. ”

Lai Xing'er pretended to be King Mu to envoy to Tibet, and now it is no secret in the palace. But he entered the palace as a eunuch before he was purified, because the emperor had his life first, not many people knew about it. Jing Xuan saw that Li Qi was affected by Yu Chengen's dedication of treasures to help military funds, and his words seemed to have the meaning of informing Yu Chengen of Lai Xing'er's whereabouts, so he hurriedly took the lead and responded vaguely: "Lai Xing'er has been ordered by the emperor, and it will take some time to go out of the palace on an errand and return to Chang'an." Lord Yu doesn't have to worry about him. ”

Li Qi was quite curious about him because of Lai Xing'er's pretending to do his own thing; And because he listened to Yangzong's face-to-face praise of Laixing'er's wisdom and bravery, he had established prestige in the hearts of the people of Tubo, and he was very dissatisfied in his heart, and wanted to find the next opportunity to compete with him, so that he could learn the ability of the true king. At this time, he first heard Yu Chengen talk about the origin of his family with Lai Xing'er, and he didn't wait for himself to talk, and then he heard Jing Xuan's answer, so he had to dispel the idea of telling Yu Chengen that Lai Xing'er had become a lieutenant colonel and was fighting on the battlefield in Puzhou, and lowered his head and sipped tea.

Jing Xuan promised to the emperor in person that he would advise the emperor to stay in Chang'an, but Yu Chengen didn't think she would really do this. When Jing Xuan did not shy away from telling him the whereabouts of the "Heavenly Silkworm Clothes", Yu Chengen immediately realized that it was impossible for him to get any help from Jing Xuan. So, on the one hand, he did not hesitate to cut his flesh and give up his wealth, in order to gain the favor of Li Qi, the king of harmony, and on the other hand, he quietly came up with the idea of Wanrong: although the emperor does not trust Wanrong as much as Jing Xuan, but the days of staying in Yaohua Palace are far more than Baoxiang Palace, if Wanrong agrees to blow the pillow wind to the emperor for herself, it may have an unexpected effect.

With such a thought in his heart, Yu Chengen didn't stay any longer, exchanged a few words with Jing Xuan and Li Qi, and then got up to say goodbye and left the Treasure Elephant Palace.

"If the mother concubine has nothing else to command, her son will also leave." When Li Qi received Yu Chengen's promise to donate the treasures he had hidden to help the army, he was very excited, and he hurried back to the Shuaifu to convene a group of generals to discuss the matter. The idea in his heart was that as long as there was enough food, why did he have to wait for the Tubo to come to the door, he could completely preemptively attack and defend, so that the Tubo people could see the power of the only king in the world.

Jinping was in the palace, only to listen to Jing Xuan and King Mu and Yu Chengen talk about Xing'er, I didn't want to say a few words, the two of them got up one after another to say goodbye, and couldn't help but remind Jing Xuan: "Niangniang, don't you still talk about something to talk to His Royal Highness King Mu when you get up early this morning?" His Royal Highness King Mu is leaving......"

Hearing this, Li Qiyan turned around and glanced at Jinping in surprise, and stopped.

Jing Xuan smiled and quipped Jinping: "Is it the person who promised someone else, and before he passed the door, he was so anxious to think about his future husband?" Immediately, he pointed to Jinping and said to Li Qi: "Fang was crossed by Yu Chengen, there is indeed something in this palace, I want to ask His Highness to pay more attention: His Majesty is loved, and Jinping has pointed out Jinping to Lai Xing'er as his wife a few days ago, Jinping is worried that Lai Xing'er is in danger in the charge, if it is convenient for His Highness, can Xing'er be transferred to the Shuaifu as a guard?" First, he can make his little husband and wife see each other from time to time, and secondly, he will also add a powerful protector to His Royal Highness, Lai Xing'er grew up in this palace, and he has nothing to say about his heart and ability......"

After Li Qi heard this, he added a trace of jealousy to Lai Xing'er in his heart: I didn't expect this little eunuch to be married by his father himself! What's even more annoying is that Jing Xuan is obviously begging himself to transfer Xing'er back to the Shuai Mansion from the battlefield in front of him, but between his words, he seems to be helping himself choose a capable protector. He recalled the experience of meeting Lai Xing'er in his house not long ago, and secretly made up his mind: if there is a chance in the future, he must let this kid show his ugliness in public, so that he can be convinced of himself.

"I heard some time ago that Sister Jinping was going to be appointed as the head of the Shanggong Bureau, and I don't want to go out of the palace to marry now? The son had nothing else to say about what the mother ordered, but only to do it. When his son came to Yuzhou to supervise the war this time, the first thing was to transfer Xing'er to his side on an errand in the future, so that Sister Jinping would have less worry sooner or later, and serve her mother wholeheartedly. ”

Jinping was so happy that he thanked Li Qishi again and again: "Thank you Your Highness for your care, Lai Xing'er will not disappoint Your Highness." ”

Jing Xuan also nodded frequently and said: "This palace is reluctant to leave the palace in my heart, but as the saying goes: women don't stay." His Royal Highness also saw it, although she is now here in the palace, but that heart has already flown five hundred miles away, His Royal Highness promised this matter today, if it is not to shirk, I am afraid that the day of the palace will be sad. ”

She said this playfully, without the slightest shelf of a concubine, and everyone in the hall couldn't help but stare at Jinping and laugh when they heard it. (To be continued.) )
