Laugh at......

Guo Ye walked to the dresser in the dark, opened the second drawer and took out the fire fold, snorted, blew the fire fold, and returned to the bed with the faint fire-like firelight.

Immediately the candles on the candlesticks were lit, and in an instant, the darkness in the house faded and the light was restored.

Extinguishing the fire casually, Guo Ye sat on the edge of the bed and urged with a look of anticipation: "Xiuxiu, what the hell is going on, I'm in a hurry." ”

Xiuxiu picked up a coat next to the bed and threw it to Guo Ye, saying, "Put it on first, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Guo Ye sighed, put his coat on his body, and then listened to Xiuxiu say softly: "The matter of lobbying involves Li Tai, the king of Wei. ”

Why did you still get involved with Li Tai, the king of Wei? Wasn't this kid deposed to Qianzhou?

Guo Ye listened confused, but he didn't interrupt or interject, and continued to listen to Xiuxiu.

Xiuxiu said: "Actually, Princess Wencheng was entrusted by the eldest grandson queen, as well as the two princesses Yuzhang and Changle to find you to lobby. As for our family's He He, this little girl is here to make a fool of herself, and she is really everywhere. ”

Guo Ye secretly thought to himself that the two princesses, Yuzhang and Changle, were both born to the eldest grandson, and Li Tai and Li Chengqian were brothers and sisters of the same father and mother.

This kid is now deposed as the governor of Qianzhou, which is not close to Lingnan, but it is not too far, could it be ......

Immediately, Guo Ye speculated: "Xiuxiu, could it be that the queen's mother and the two princesses Changle and Yuzhang asked Princess Wencheng to lobby me, and it has something to do with the fact that I led the Guangnan Road army south to quell the rebellion and exterminate the cult?" ”

"Exactly!"

Xiuxiu lowered her head slightly, and sighed: "I really can't hide anything from my husband, and this seemingly unrelated thing can give insight." That's right, Princess Wencheng came to find her husband today for you to go south to quell the rebellion, and to lobby for Li Tai, the king of Wei. Princess Wencheng said that the two princesses Yuzhang and Changle are the sisters of Wei Wangtai, so it is inconvenient to come forward to ask you. And the queen mother is the lord of the six palaces, and the ancestral system has always stipulated that the harem must not interfere in politics. King Wei is the son of the queen, and he must avoid suspicion. Therefore, I invited Princess Wencheng, who has a little friendship with her husband, to come forward. ”

After Guo Ye listened, his face immediately calmed down, stretched out his hand, and motioned for Xiuxiu to continue.

Xiuxiu continued: "Empress Changsun and the two princesses hope that when the husband leads the army south to quell the rebellion, they can repair a letter to the Qianzhou Governor's Mansion in the name of the general manager of the Guangnan Road March, and recruit His Royal Highness the King of Wei to lead the soldiers and horses of the Qianzhou Governor's Mansion to assist you in fighting thieves and bandits in the Guangnan Road area. ”

"Haha, this is new!"

Guo Ye couldn't help grinning and said: "I have four battalions under the jurisdiction of the Guangnan Road Army, with a total of more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, even if the troops are insufficient when quelling the rebellion, I can collect the defeated government soldiers along the way, why spend energy to recruit the soldiers and horses from the Qianzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, which is far away." Besides, who is Li Tai, the king of Wei? He has always been at odds with me, and I will go to recruit troops and horses with him? Joke! ”

"How could my husband, such a delicate and clear person, not understand the meaning of the queen and the two princesses?"

Xiuxiu shook her head a little speechlessly and said, "They want to ......"

"Xiuxiu, don't say it. I understand what the queen and the two princesses mean! ”

Guo Ye interrupted Xiuxiu's words, raised his hand and said, "Just because I understand the true intentions of their mother and daughter, I can't do this." ”

Xiuxiu looked at Guo Ye in confusion and sighed softly, as if asking.

Guo Ye said with a smile: "I know the queen's intentions very well, to put it bluntly, this is not the queen's intentions at all, but the meaning of our Royal Highness the King of Wei, who is far away in Qianzhou but is not willing to be lonely." If I guessed correctly, he sent a letter not only to the queen mother, but also to the two princesses, Yuzhang and Changle, in order to ask them to help him, so that I could recruit him from Qianzhou to the area around Guangnan Road to suppress the rebellion when I went south to quell the rebellion. Otherwise, with my understanding of Empress Changsun as a person, and the hearts of two princesses who have never asked about political affairs, how could they take the initiative to persuade Princess Wencheng to come to me? ”

Seeing that Xiuxiu was still a little confused, Guo Ye continued to explain: "Li Taiyang, the king of Wei, begged his mother and instructed his sisters to help him, the reason is very simple, this prince who is not willing to be lonely and always likes to make wind and rain has been silent for too long. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the matter of Prince Chengqian's imprisonment has reached his ears again, so he urgently needs to make a contribution as an opportunity to enter the eyes of today's saints as soon as possible. In this way, perhaps he can coax the current saint to be happy, and an edict will recall him from Qianzhou to Chang'an. As we all know, Li Tai used to be the most beloved prince of today's saints, and after being by the emperor's side for a long time, he can't bear it, and he can replace Li Chengqian in the future. Hehe, at least that's what His Royal Highness the King of Wei thinks. ”

"So, he hit the idea that Fujun led the army south to quell the rebellion this time?"

After listening to Guo Ye's analysis, Xiuxiu understood a little bit and sighed a little stunned: "It turns out that it is still so complicated. ”

Guo Ye touched her head lovingly, and said with a smile: "From the fact that I went south to suppress the rebellion, I will take a credit as an opportunity, then this His Royal Highness the King of Wei is benevolent." Based on what I know about him, hmph, he will definitely be secretly making small moves at that time, maybe my southern counterinsurgency is not over, and he will be able to take all the credit for the southward suppression of bandits and counterinsurgency on his head. Madam, you don't know, I know His Royal Highness King Wei too well, and I'm used to eating alone. When the time comes, with his ability to support the wall with his mud, it will be good not to cause chaos to my Guangnan Road army. I'm afraid that at that time, he will take the credit, and your husband and I will carry the black pot! ”

"Huh?"

When Xiuxiu heard this, she was so shocked that she covered her small mouth, and said in shock: "In this way, the queen mother and the two princesses are not at ease." And Princess Wencheng, she still praised your husband in front of me again and again, it turned out to be one set in front of the other and behind your back. ”

"Haha, Xiuxiu is serious!"

Guo Ye looked at Xiuxiu with bulging cheeks, looking indignant and delicate, and hurriedly explained: "The queen's mother loves her son, besides, the prince is not angry, and she also hopes that Li Tai can take this opportunity to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, which is understandable." As for the two princesses Yuzhang and Changle, there is nothing to do, and the innocent daughter has a family temperament, where do you think so much? This is Xiuxiu, you misunderstood the two of them. As for Princess Wencheng, I'm afraid she is also gracious, right? After all, the queen and the two princesses both asked her to come forward as a lobbyist, how could she refuse? ”

Speaking of this, Guo Ye added in a resolute tone: "But no matter who they talk to, my position is very clear, people like Li Tai, the king of Wei, can hide and hide, and want me to work with him?" Save it! I can't hide until I can't hide, where can I still trouble myself? ”

Listening to Guo Ye helping Empress Changsun and Princess Changle and others to exonerate, Xiuxiu looked depressed, her face became slightly ugly, and she stopped talking, and then lowered her head slightly, not daring to look directly at Guo Ye for half a minute.

Seeing this, Guo Ye was very suspicious, and immediately asked, "Xiuxiu, what's going on?" ”

"I... I... Husband, I'm ......"

After a long time, I couldn't say a complete sentence, and I looked like a child who had done something wrong, and my heart was empty.

Guo Ye seemed to feel a bit of a bad omen, subconsciously moved his butt from the edge of the bed, jumped up, and asked in disbelief: "Xiuxiu, my good daughter-in-law, don't tell me that I was fooled by Princess Wencheng for a few words, and you took it upon yourself to accept this matter for me, right?" ”

"I'm sorry, I really didn't think that much about it at the time."

Xiuxiu apologized in a low voice, then raised her face suddenly, looked at Guo Ye with shame, and asked in a daze, "Husband, is this matter still too late to be saved?" ”
