After not sitting at King Qin's place for long, Song Xiang and Lu Zhan returned to the palace.

Neither of them spoke much on the way, Song Xiang didn't know what Lu Zhan was thinking, but she herself turned over the details of her relationship with the King of Qin and the King of Han in her mind - although the murderer has now been locked as the King of Jin, people who have competing interests cannot be ignored. It's just that it's been a long time, and I can't remember a lot of things.

The carriage entered the palace, Lu Zhan went down to the ground first, and Song Xiang was about to get down on his shoulder, when he suddenly heard Lu Zhan say: "That's the carriage of the He family." ”

Song Xiang looked up and saw two carriages parked outside the palace, how could Lu Zhan see who belonged to him, but she didn't understand.

"Most of the people who came by carriage were women. Let's go to the concubine and have a look. ”

Lu Zhan said, taking the first step.

Walking outside the Qiwu Palace, sure enough, Mrs. He's maid was standing under the door, and the sound of narration came from the house.

"It's Mrs. Ho. Let's go say hello and leave, she made a special trip, most likely to find her mother and concubine. ”

Song Xiang stepped forward as he spoke, and after Su Xin entered the house, the two entered the house. Before Song Xiang left, he saw Mrs. He and Princess Jin sitting face to face, the two teas in front of them had run out of heat, and under Mrs. He's temporary smile, there was still a worry that was difficult to ignore.

Song Xiang only didn't see it, saluted the princess, and accepted Mrs. He's salute, and smiled at her: "Mrs. He rarely comes to our house, please take a seat." He said to the princess again: "I just went to the Ten Princes' Mansion and met Uncle Qin and the princess, I have to pick up the wind for the two uncles tomorrow, I will go back to the room first to see if there is anything else to prepare, so I will not accompany the mother and Mrs. He." ”

It is said that it is rude to leave when you show your face, but Princess Jin did not hesitate at all, and nodded her head to agree. This made Song Xiang believe in his conjecture even more. But there is no need to think about it, wait for Mrs. He to leave and then ask the princess.

At dusk in the capital, the post road is dusty and noisy, and the carriage and horse procession of more than a mile long is stepping on the scorching sun, rushing to the south city gate.

In the middle of the chariot, the young man with a weak crown supported his cheeks with one hand, sat on the brocade couch with his eyes slightly closed, and his body shook gently with the swing of the body. The eunuch sitting on the side looked at the scenery outside, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the man: "The front is almost here, I haven't seen the emperor and the mother for two years, the prince should take care of his spirits, so that the emperor and the mother can see the tired face of the prince, and feel distressed." ”

King Han raised his eyes, looked at the eunuch and laughed: "I have already become a vassal, what else is there to worry about?" ”

"The prince is wrong. In the eyes of his parents, no matter how old the prince is, he is also a child. ”

King Han still laughed, did not refute him, and did not echo him. He lowered his cheek-bearing hand, lifted the curtain and hung it into the golden hook, and looked out the window. looked at him and squinted his eyes: "I don't dare to compete for any favor, those who compete for favor will not end well." I'd rather they didn't pay so much attention to me, it's so rare to be alive and secure these days. ”

When the eunuch heard this, the smile on his face receded, and a look of sorrow also rose. It's a pity that the prince thinks so, but others don't think so. In particular, the King of Qin has always ......"

"What the hell do they do?" King Han glanced at him, "As long as no one gets in the way of me being the idle king, what they want to do has nothing to do with me." ”

The eunuch's mouth opened to say something, but when he saw that his eyes had been closed, he swallowed again.

The soldiers at the south gate had already received an order from the Ministry of War, and tonight the king of Han would drive into the city, because the soldiers at the city gate were not allowed to withdraw from their posts, but not only that, but also sent some more manpower, so as not to enter the capital too many people, and then someone would take advantage of the loophole.

The city gate that the Han King entered at the time of Youshi went directly to the Ten Kings' Mansion to settle down, except for alarming the officials in charge of the reception such as the Ministry of Rites and the Military Department, Zongzheng Yuan, etc., there was no big movement. However, Concubine Yu, who was thoughtful, still sent someone out of the palace to the mansion, conveyed some instructions, and returned to the palace with the reply of King Han.

Song Xiang got the exact time of King Han's entry into Beijing from Chonghua, and she was about to go to Princess Jin to ask for peace at that time.

"There were only so many people who came, quietly, not as flamboyant as in Beijing before. When the people from the Ministry of Rites went to the Ten Kings' Mansion, he was still waiting there in full costumes. ”

————

Song Xiang was a little surprised: "Didn't go directly to the palace?" ”

"Nope."

Song Xiang remembered that the king of Han was not so well-behaved in his previous life, and as soon as he entered Beijing, he went straight to the palace, and it is said that he hugged Yu Guifei for most of the day with tears in his eyes.

In this way, Concubine Yu is really a cautious and cautious person.

After sending Chonghua away, he arrived at Qiwu Palace, Princess Jin was having breakfast, Song Xiang stepped forward to wait for the porridge, and then said, "Mrs. He came yesterday for something important?" ”

Princess Jin snorted and put the spoon down: "He Lang's injury is still a bit sequelae, the injury is in the chest and abdomen, and it will be impossible to do difficult things in the future." The He family originally planned to let him prepare for the next Spring Festival, but in this way, he was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it. So he planned to find a job in the court, so that he could start a career from then on. ”

"So serious?" Song Xiang was slightly surprised, "It's so strange that the He family can endure it to such an extent." ”

Princess Jin looked at her suspiciously: "Could it be that the truth is what was found in the yamen?" ”

"It can't be." Song Xiang was categorical, "Where is this bandit who can't get along with himself?" They are not here to make money, they are clearly here to give their lives! ”

Princess Jin's already unfirm conjecture was immediately persuaded by her. Thinking back to her words, he looked at her again and said, "Is it so exaggerated to speak?" ”

Song Xiang grinned: "Then you said that what I said is right!" ”

Princess Jin sneered: "That's the reason." ”

After speaking, he motioned for her to sit down and eat as well.

Song Xiang sat down, not busy eating, but said: "Then Mrs. He came here to find a job for He Lang?" ”

"Yes, indeed. But it's not me he's asking for, it's your uncle. Princess Jin looked at her, "We don't have real power in our hands, so we can't ask for it, but your uncle is the secretary of state who receives the title of prince and prince, and he is also a second-rank member who holds the real power of the six departments, and your uncle can still help with this little favor." ”

"Uncle is out of the horse, so naturally it is effortless. And He Lang has studied for many years, although he has never taken the exam, he still has real talents. He Shilang's own official position is not low, in this way, He Lang will definitely have a good way out, and his uncle will not be left behind in any hidden dangers. ”

"That's right." Song Xiang slapped such a bunch of sycophants, but Princess Jin's expression did not fluctuate.

Song Xiang immediately thought that Lu Zhan had said that she had a bad relationship with the Yang family, so she immediately stopped talking, honestly added two spoonfuls of soup, and drank it.
