Episode 8 Princess Liaoyang

(I'm really sorry.,I couldn't get on the page last night.,I had a manuscript in hand and I broke it again...... Very depressed. Now this episode is to make up for yesterday, and there will be today's in the evening. )

========================================================================================================================

Xiang Xiaoqiang thought about it in the car, and the fourteen grids were a pool of "distant water", which could not quench his "near thirst". As Xiuxiu said, Fourteen Gege is a rare master in this industry, and her identity determines her level, no matter how high her skills are, she can only be a staff member, and she can rest assured that she can ask for advice without worrying about being swallowed by her. But after all, Fourteen Gege has just come over, and both she and the Ming authorities are in a sensitive period. All her activities and the people she comes into contact with must be under close surveillance. This "maid" who opened the door also illustrates this.

Therefore, Xiang Xiaoqiang made up his mind that this visit to Princess Liaoyang was only courteous, with the nature of asking for warmth, after all, it was he who personally persuaded Fourteen Gege to take refuge in Daming, and it was his team that brought Fourteen Gege back to Daming. Therefore, in a sense, Fourteen Gege was his guest, and logically speaking, he also had to come and see how his guests were being treated in Daming. No one can say anything.

He also thought about it just now, if Princess Liaoyang went to visit when she first came to Daming, did she seem too eager. The safer way is not to wait for a while, wait for the "sensitive period" to pass, and wait for one's own People's Guard Corps to get on some track and have a certain strength to come back to visit.

But Xiang Xiaoqiang weighed it repeatedly, and the concept of "the sensitive period has passed" is just self-deception. With the identity of Fourteen Gege, there is no such thing as a "sensitive period". Even if you wait for ten days and a half months, or even a year and a half to visit, you can't escape the eyes of Dongchang.

And why do you have concerns? It is nothing more than two: first, I am worried that someone will say that I have fornicated with the Qing Dynasty through the Fourteen Gege; Second, they were worried that Dongchang and Shen Rongxuan would see that they could make friends with the Fourteen Gege, and use the Fourteen Gege to increase their strength. The first one is unlikely, the fourteen Gege has already broken his family, and he has become a "traitor" again, and the back road has been cut off, and there is no way to "pass" the Qing Dynasty again. The second one is true, and I was the one who hit the idea. But this purpose of his own is not illegal, and he can be put on the table, at most it makes some people suspicious. Strengthening the strength of the People's Guard is also for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. What happened to the friendship between the commander of the People's Guard of the Ming Dynasty and the Liaoyang princess of the Ming Dynasty? At most, it's just a bit of a scandal.

Anyway, I decided to use the resource of Fourteen Grids, and I can't escape the eyes of Dongchang if I come early or late, so it's better to come early. Let Zhu Yourong and Zheng Gongyin seem to them that they are now in the beginning of the Guards, poor and white, and they can only want to get guidance when they eagerly visit Fourteen Gege, and their purpose is relatively simple. And hint at that "maid" myself later, I know you're from Dongchang. In this way, knowing that under the eyes and ears of Dongchang, he can still come to visit often, which seems open-minded and has nothing to hide. It is to make people like Shen Rongxuan who are deep in the city government seem to be so eager to make friends, that is, a hairy boy who has no city government, it is good to reduce a little scruples.

If you really wait until a few months later, you have a certain amount of strength in your hands, and the surface of the fourteen grid is "cold", and then you come to visit quietly, it will not seem so simple.

……

The brocade mat was laid on the floor, and Xiang Xiaoqiang knelt on the brocade mat. He looked at the living room.

The style of this house is similar to that of the Japanese style, and every stone and wood in the small garden is delicately arranged. Stone paths, small pavilions, bamboo flowing water, and large groups of koi fish in the pond all have a Japanese flavor. The large living room is covered with expensive ebony floors, low-rise Japanese furniture, calligraphy fans on the walls, and huge ukiyo-e screens in the distance. Although it is Japanese, it does not have the stingy and restrained feeling of Japanese, but has the style of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Xiang Xiaoqiang knew that Zhu Yourong's house was handed over to Zheng Yuxuan. From this point of view, Zheng Yuxuan put a lot of thought into what her cousin confessed. This house is very secluded, and outside reporters don't know that Fourteen Gege lives here, but the specifications of the house are worthy of the title of "Princess Mansion". And Zheng Yuxuan probably took into account that Fourteen Gege grew up in Japan, so he specially chose this Japanese-style house.

Four maids lined up on either side of the hall, standing quietly with their heads bowed. There is no doubt that this is also the people of the East Factory.

Alas, poor Fourteen Gege is now really a canary in a cage.

After a long while, Xiang Xiaoqiang's calves were numb, and the "maid" who opened the door just now appeared in the corridor and said softly:

"Her Royal Highness the princess has arrived."

Then step aside and bow gently.

The voice of the fourteen grids at the door laughed:

"Why do you have time to come to me today?"

Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at her in a daze, almost fascinated.

Fourteen Gege wore a light cyan Hanfu, wrapped in a layer of light yarn, a long skirt mopping the floor, his hands in wide sleeves, standing at the door, like a bunch of elegant narcissus.

Xiang Xiaoqiang coughed dryly, concealed his embarrassment, got up and smiled:

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess."

He originally thought that Fourteen Gege would have to wear a kimono in a Japanese-style house, or a Western dress. I didn't expect her to be able to wear Hanfu with a proud Manchu character.

Fourteen grids stepped over, raised their sleeves, and said with a smile:

"How about it, take a look at the adults, this princess looks good in Hanfu, right?"

When she was canonized as the princess of Liaoyang, Xiang Xiaoqiang was next to her, and when the palace people announced the edict, she read the reward, which included "thirty sets of foreign clothes, ten sets of Hanfu, ten sets of kimonos, and ten sets of full clothes", it is obvious that she does not have to wear Hanfu. Xiang Xiaoqiang couldn't help but admire Fourteen Gege's ability to bend and stretch, and he would definitely not be able to replace him. It can be seen that Fourteen Gege is now cautious, showing that he is "happy here, not thinking about it".

It's a pity that the fourteen grids are short hair, and if it is Zhu Yourong's long hair, it will look better in Hanfu.

The two of them knelt on the ground across the wide rosewood low desk, and the fourteen grids instructed the maid to remove the residual tea in front of Xiaoqiang and go to the full tea ceremony.

Fourteen Gege rolled up his wide sleeves, revealing his wrists, and sighed while skillfully scalding the pot, making cups, and washing tea:

"I've only really rested in the past few days. In the past, they were all running around, with an inexhaustible heart and an inexhaustible plan. In the past few days, I have learned that it is so comfortable to raise flowers, feed fish, tease cats, and sleep lazily in the morning...... I'm going to love this life. By the way, there are two pots of plum I planted outside, which are blooming very well, and I must go to see them later. ”

Then she picked up a small cup of tea and gave it to Xiang Xiaoqiang, and said with a smile:

"Lord Xiang is now proud of officialdom and love, well, I still think of looking at my old friend, not bad. It's rare to come to Lord Xiang, don't leave at noon, have a light meal, this princess toasts you with two glasses of wine, and wishes you a high rise. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang had this intention, so he smiled and said:

"Hehe, Your Highness is gracious, then I might as well be respectful and obey my fate, and bother it."

Fourteen Gege looked happy and instructed the maid to arrange it at noon.

Then he glanced at the maids on both sides of Xiaoqiang, and said generously:

"Thanks to Your Majesty's trust, the edict ordered Wechen to form the Imperial People's Guard, Wechen ...... (Xiang Xiaoqiang called himself 'Weichen' for the first time, quite unaccustomed) Weichen is really scared, for fear of betraying His Majesty's trust. ”

Fourteen Gege heard him mention "Your Majesty", so he sat upright, and at the same time looked at his half-baked official tone, smiling slightly, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Xiang Xiaoqiang continued:

"Although Wechen was engaged in related work before, after all, it was the first time to pick up such a heavy burden, and it was from scratch, and it all had to be formed by these hands...... If you start from scratch, I am afraid that you will have to take many detours, and you will live up to Your Majesty's expectations, and you will also spend a lot of money and time...... Now these two things are the most lacking in Daming. At this time, Weichen remembered Her Royal Highness the Princess. After all, Her Royal Highness the princess ...... How to say it, I have fought for a few rounds, and I am still very impressed by the professionalism of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Therefore, Weichen's visit today is to ask His Highness some professional questions, and I hope His Highness will give him advice. ”

Fourteen Gege was startled, and quickly glanced at the maids, all of whom were still standing respectfully with their heads bowed.

She looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang in a daze, not knowing if he was crazy or something. Xiang Xiaoqiang was still smiling confidently, looking at her with a frank gaze.

Gradually, Fourteen Gege understood, smiled again, and nodded, admiring Xiang Xiaoqiang's boldness.

"Well, when I say that to my lord, I will see the outside. Since it is for Daming, ask the adults, this princess must know everything. I don't know what kind of questions I want to ask adults? ”

Then, she instructed the maid to bring a pen and white paper, and then ordered the maid to kneel and record it, and please dictate the problem to Xiaoqiang.

Xiang Xiaoqiang saw that Fourteen Gege asked the maid to write a record, and he understood that she understood all her thoughts.

With this disturbance, he completely "disturbed" the fourteen grids of Tao Hui's attempts. Fourteen Gege also understands that the entire Ming Dynasty can make friends with her at present is only Xiang Xiaoqiang. Xiang Xiaoqiang's current development is very promising, and he can often see the emperor, so he can talk. Fourteen Gege is now isolated, powerless, and probably has a large circle of enemies. If she really fell into any danger, the only one who was willing to help her was Xiang Xiaoqiang. Xiang Xiaoqiang took the initiative to befriend her, anyway, he couldn't hide it, so he simply did it more thoroughly, turning the conspiracy into a yang conspiracy, which was more upright and safer.

So she didn't even write it herself, and let the female agents of Dongchang remember it all. This will also prevent Xiang Xiaoqiang from being stupid and asking what he shouldn't ask.

This maid was the maid who opened the door for him. Xiang Xiaoqiang stared at her in a maid outfit, feeling always weird.

Fourteen Gege looked at him staring at the maid and smiled:

"Lord Xiang, you must treat me the next time you meet Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty...... You see, every maid in this house is well trained in the Japanese style, and it is very easy to use, and I am used to it. They all have Japanese names. Her name is Saotome-Shiki, and she is a female official in the house, and she is very conscientious. Ah Shi, I've seen Lord Xiang. ”

Saotome put down the pen, bowed deeply to Xiaoqiang, and said softly:

"I've seen Lord Xiang."

Alas, surveillance is surveillance, and the comfort of life is still quite in place. Xiang Xiaoqiang remembered:

"By the way, what about Xiao Wu? Why didn't you see it? ”

Fourteen grids waved their hands:

"Little Wu, she's clumsy and can't speak Chinese, so I'm okay not to let her come to the front. Now Kogo is in charge of **, and Saotome is in charge of the vestibule. ”

……

In the spacious office of the Shoufu Mansion, Shen Rongxuan was answering the phone call from Dongchang. The new director of the Dongchang factory, the former director of the First Bureau, was reporting to him the important news he had just received: Xiang Xiaoqiang, the commander of the People's Guard, came to visit Princess Liaoyang and openly asked the former head of the sticky pole for professional advice.

Shen Rongxuan smiled slightly:

“…… Well, I know that Xiang Xiaoqiang is like this, which is in line with his style...... He doesn't have anyone at all now, and he wants to get close to Princess Liaoyang, and he is afraid that we will be suspicious of him, so he deliberately shows it in the light to show that he is above board...... What about Princess Liaoyang, we have been old rivals for several years, and she is not willing to be lonely, and she also wants to make a splash when she arrives in Daming. So when I saw Xiang Xiaoqiang leaning up, I grabbed this line...... Hehe, what two young people...... Well, yes, the piece of paper took a picture for me, and I'll see what questions Xiang Xiaoqiang asks. ”

……

Xiang Xiaoqiang came out of Princess Liaoyang's mansion and sat in the car, he rethought this visit and found no failure.

This visit finalized the alliance agreement between him and Fourteen Gege in the Beiqing train, and where Fourteen Gege first came to Daming, he put his friendship with her in the clear place. Usually at such times, the visit is just a visit, and no one thinks that there is any plan. After a long time like this, after everyone got used to the stereotype of "Xiang Xiaoqiang and Princess Liaoyang are friends", the resource of Fourteen Gege was monopolized by themselves. As long as the Fourteen Gege does not rebel, he will continue to gain political and professional benefits. Of course, with fourteen grids, it was hard to imagine that she would do such a stupid thing.

Next, I must go to Changping Hou to sit down and talk to him about this visit to Fourteen Gege. This kind of thing must be said in time, otherwise others will think too much. When they hear others talk about it first, they have preconceived ideas that are not good for them, and they are very passive.

It would be better to meet Your Majesty and talk to her. Zhu Yourong, a girl, is still relatively kind in her heart, and she doesn't seem to have any ill feelings towards Fourteen Gege, she should be able to understand the fact that she befriended Fourteen Gege. After she had a preconceived idea and accepted this matter with good intentions, she didn't listen to anything unpleasant when others said it.

Then, it is not impossible to find an opportunity to directly bring Princess Liaoyang to work with in the future.
