Chapter 253: Meeting King Liang
Concubine Qi left with a group of people without a word, so that Song Yi had to suspect that Concubine Qi was just to tell herself that the real king and the prince of Siam entered the palace together to ask the emperor for marriage.
These days, Song Yi has already done enough psychological construction, so when he heard the news brought by Concubine Qi, to be honest, Song Yi was not much surprised.
Concubine Qi didn't know that Song Yi didn't feel sad because she knew about the true king's "request". Song Yi was still waiting for Chunxiang to come back like nothing, and it didn't take long for Song Yi to see Chunxiang and come back in a hurry.
Song Yi saw that her face was heavy, and she knew that she had something to say. But in the palace, there were many people, Song Yi didn't ask much, only asked Chunxiang, "See?" ”
"Well, slave maid ......" Chunxiang nodded, and wanted to say something, but Song Yi hurriedly stopped her.
"Don't say it yet, let's talk about it when we go back" Song Yi stopped Chunxiang from speaking, and then hurriedly left the palace with Chunxiang.
On the way back, Haruka kept wanting to speak, but was stopped by Song Yi every time.
Song Yi kept telling Chunxiang with his eyes that he was careful that the wall had ears. Song Yi didn't believe Chunxiang, but he didn't believe in the coachman. She was afraid that the coachman was also the person of the true king.
Chunxiang was not stupid, understood what the princess meant, and waited until she returned to Huifangyuan.
After returning to Huifang Garden, Song Yi drove away all the subordinates in the house. Haruka was left alone.
After everyone left, Song Yi asked, "How is it?" What did King Liang say? ”
"Princess, King Liang doesn't believe in slaves. I'm going to meet you in person," Haruka said.
"Didn't you show him the note and token I gave you?" Song Yi hurriedly asked.
"Princess, the note and token you handed over to the slave maid, the slave and maid showed it to King Liang. He didn't suspect that the slave was lying to him, King Liang just said that the matter was very important, and he must discuss the matter with you in person," Chunxiang said.
After hearing this, Song Yi thought about it and felt that it was no problem for King Liang to do this. After all, the two don't have a deep relationship, and if they suddenly ask him for help, everyone will mumble in their hearts and have doubts. Thinking about this, Song Yi felt a lot more at ease.
"Okay, I got it. I arranged a time to meet with King Liang and talk to him in person. Chunxiang, I've worked hard for you today" Song Yi decided to meet with King Liang.
"Princess, have you really decided to ask King Liang for help? With such a big thing, will King Liang help us? Will he ask for anything else from you, Princess? Chunxiang still can't forget that King Liang once asked the Queen Mother to marry the princess, she felt that King Liang must have another purpose.
Song Yi also knew what Chunxiang was wondering about, but now, she had no choice but to do it, because Song Yi really couldn't find anyone else to ask for help.
After several contacts with King Liang, Song Yi believed that King Liang was not a bad person. Moreover, the similar appearance of King Liang and Chu Li made Song Yi feel inexplicably close. Song Yi is willing to bet on King Liang.
What Song Yi decided, the nine horses couldn't pull back. So, he hurriedly connected with King Liang and agreed on the time and place for the two to meet.
This time, for the sake of convenience. Song Yi and King Liang met in the guest building outside the palace.
On the surface, it is the largest restaurant in Kyoto, but it is also one of the properties of King Liang. Therefore, it is very safe to meet in the guest house.
The next day, Song Yi went out with Chunxiang and went straight to the Huibin Building.
Song Yi dressed up in disguise, entered through the back door of the Huibin Building, and under the leadership of the little maid, he hid everyone and entered the hidden box on the second floor.
In the box, King Liang had been waiting for a long time.
When Song Yi appeared, he happened to see King Liang making tea.
"King Liang, you are here early" Song Yi took off his cloak outside and let Chunxiang wait outside.
"The real princess wants to see this king, and this king is looking forward to it, so he came earlier than the agreed time" King Liang said with a smile and invited Song Yi to sit down.
Song Yi didn't squirm either, and sat down directly.
"Lord Wang, you and I are both smart people, so we don't have to beat around the bush, let's get straight to the point."
"Everything is up to the princess" King Liang did not refuse and agreed.
Song Yi saw that the other party was happy, and he stopped talking nonsense, and directly expressed his intention, "I want to leave the real king's side, I hope the prince can help me"
"True princess, she is really quick to speak. But I don't know, why do you think I'll help you? After all, you are now the true princess, and if there is no valid reason, wouldn't this king have offended the real king? King Liang looked at Song Yi's eyes and said.
Song Yi did not shyly avoid being stared at by men other than her husband like other women, but looked at King Liang with a frank look.
smiled and said, "King Liang, I am leaving the True King, this is a private matter between me and the True King, please allow me not to say it." As for the reason for asking you to help me. If I tell you, I can help you get the world. Do you think that's a good reason? ”
As soon as Song Yi's words fell, he felt that the temperature in the room had plummeted, and a thick murderous aura emanated from the man, which made Song Yi shiver.
Song Yi knew that what she said just now was undoubtedly gambling, but she thought that if she couldn't take advantage of the fire and do what she liked, there would be no other conditions to ask King Liang for help. Only if the king of Liang has other ambitions, he can be qualified to negotiate with him.
King Liang just looked at Song Yi like this, as if he was assessing Song Yi's intention to say this.
"True princess, why do you say this? In the entire Qianchao, who didn't know that King Liang was an idle prince, powerless and powerless, and was imprisoned in the palace by the emperor. You just asked me if I have any ambitions? Hehe, doesn't the real princess think that she asked the wrong person? This king is not the emperor's son, how can he have ambitions for the country? ”
"King Liang, I sincerely come to talk to you about cooperation today. Why don't we be open and honest with each other? If you are really willing to be an idle prince, as you just said, why do you pretend to be cynical in front of the emperor and the queen mother, and at the same time use the imperial merchant Huang family to do business in restaurants and money houses, while secretly cultivating your own power in the court, and not let anyone know. Lord, if I'm not mistaken. Lord Liang of the Criminal Prison Division is also the prince's person, right? ”
Song Yi had long guessed that Lord Liang of the Criminal Prison Department was King Liang's person, and at that time, Song Yi was a suspect in the murder of the palace maid, but Liang Youdao, who has always been iron-faced and selfless, exonerated Song Yi everywhere. Even the most experienced of the game made such a low-level mistake. Later, when Song Yi took out Song Ci's "Song Ci Record" and handed it to Liang Youdao, he also took the opportunity to test why Liang Youdao would help him three times and twice. Liang Youdao did not take credit for ink, not only handed over the "Song Ci Record" to the imperial court, but also made a table to the emperor and returned all the credit to Song Yi.
Song Yi wondered at the time, did Liang Youdao really care about fame and fortune as he appeared? Afterwards, Song Yi recalled, combined with the news he got from the real king, and speculated that Liang Youdao must be King Liang's person.
And at that time, King Liang had already noticed himself. I didn't know it at the time.
Speaking of these things now, Song Yi just wanted to tell King Liang that he was not ignorant.
"True princess, what do you want to show this king when you tell this king?"
"King Liang, I'm not threatening you with Lord Liang's affairs. I just want to tell you that I have the power to help you build money. As long as you help me escape from Kyoto, I can help you control the economic lifeblood of the Qianchao. ”
"True princess, say that you can help this king control the economic lifeline of the Qian Dynasty. Princess, how can this king believe this by saying this? ”
Of course, Song Yi understands that empty mouth and white teeth make people believe that they have such an ability, which sounds more like a fantasy.
"The people live on food. The grain trade was generally monopolized by the major imperial merchants of the Qian. As far as I know, King Liang, you have been secretly supporting the new imperial merchant Huang family. However, the Huang family's foundation is still shallow, and it cannot shake the monopoly position of a few old imperial businessmen at all. Therefore, the Huang family found another way to start from the restaurant and money business. Although these two businesses also make a lot of money, they must be far from King Liang's expectations. When Song Yi said this, he deliberately paused and looked at King Liang.
The expression on King Liang's face did not change, with an unfathomable look, Song Yi was not sure in his heart, and at this moment, King Liang said, "True Wangfu, continue"
Song Yi was overjoyed when he heard King Liang say to continue, and said, "If I tell the prince that I have a treasure that can increase grain production tenfold." At that time, the prince will be able to break the monopoly of several imperial merchants on grain and quickly grasp the economic lifeline of the Qianchao. At that time, if King Liang wants to succeed, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort. ”
"Is the real princess so confident? This king wants to know, what is the best way for the real princess to do it? ”
Song Yi gritted his teeth, knowing that the matter was going to fail, so he made a move. Attached to the Ear Liang King, he said his plan.
After King Liang heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Song Yi with surprise.
