The coachman stood tremblingly, turning his head to look inside the carriage from time to time, Li Zhilian looked at him, and got into the carriage for some reason

Opened the car door and saw Li Jianqing sitting alone in the carriage reading the paperwork, which startled her: "Senior brother~ Why are you here?" ”

Li Jianqing slowly turned a page and asked, "I met Zhou Cheng in Dali Temple, and he said that you might be here."

"Zhou Cheng told you?"

"Hmm~" He slowly flipped through a page of paperwork.

Feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Li Zhilian had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Senior brother~ You have something to do with me?" ”

Li Jianqing closed the book, put it on the edge of the stool, raised his eyelids and glanced at her, his gaze was as cold as his

Li Zhilian's scalp was numb, and an ominous premonition rose in his chest, wouldn't something happen again?

Li Jianqing glanced at her: "In the past two days, you have not seen anyone who goes out early and returns late, what are you busy with?" ”

Li Zhilian peeked at his expression: "Didn't I tell you yesterday that I was looking for a guard for His Royal Highness the Prince!" And when I went out this morning, I explained to Brother Shen Qiu, didn't he tell you? ”

"Hmm~" Li Jianqing responded coldly, preferring to explain to Shen Qiu rather than tell him

The atmosphere in the carriage instantly cooled down, and Li Zhilian felt an inexplicable nervousness, and he didn't dare to move

The carriage drove smoothly through the street, and the afternoon sun faintly penetrated through the gap between the windows with the movement of the carriage, occasionally shining on Li Jianqing's face, the outline was deeper than three years ago, and the temperament was more cold and alienated than three years ago

Li Zhilian was still peeking at his expression, but he heard him suddenly ask, "Where will you go in a while?" ”

Li Zhilian was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated: "Go to the imperial palace"

Li Jianqing squinted his eyes slightly and looked at her for a long time

Li Zhilian was looked at uncomfortably: "Go to the palace and arrange Lin Zhao's funeral"

Li saw that he was silent, and the quiet in the carriage returned to just now

Li Jianqing called her: "Li Zhipian"

Li Zhilian raised his eyes to look at him, slightly surprised, this seemed to be the first time Li Jianqing called her by her full name

The carriage drove into the lively market, and the complicated conversation was endless, and Li Jianqing asked her in a low voice: "The teacher said that you saw Li Kun in Yang Qihao's tomb?" ”

Li Zhilian nodded, it turned out that what he wanted to ask was his life experience: "Li Kun and your mother Xiao Fengming met in the tomb inside the jack gate, the hole I climbed out of was dug by them, the battle twenty-five years ago, after Li Kun failed, he was rescued by Xiao Fengming, in order to repay his kindness, he stayed with your mother to protect her from being taken back by the Xiao family."

I'm sorry senior brother, I can't tell you about the black jade yet, Li Zhilian said in his heart

Li Jianqing's expression did not change, but his eyes changed slightly. The words dragon and phoenix can only be possessed by the orthodox bloodline of the Xiao family tree

"Girl~The palace has arrived~" The carriage slowly stopped.

She saw Li Jianqing frowning solemnly, tiptoed off the carriage, and said to the coachman: "Uncle~ Please send the son in the carriage back to the Shen Mansion first"

As soon as he raised his eyes, Li Jianqing had already walked out, looked at her, and said, "Let's eat first!" There is a Qingyun House near here, and the fish is well done"

Li Zhilian nodded, got into the carriage again, and said nothing all the way

When she arrived at the Qingyun Pavilion private room, several sons of families in brocade clothes saluted her one after another

"Your Highness~"

"Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess"

……

Li Zhilian walked into the private room emotionlessly and closed the door: "What's wrong with them, shouldn't they be hiding from me at this time?" After all, Zhao Qianning and Du Ruoyi, who came into contact with me, are dead."

Li Jianqing sat down in his position and cleaned the teacup: "After Du Shangshu and Lord Zhao returned to their hometown, it was Zhang Peng and Chen Yu who took their place."

Li Zhilian sat down in front of him and shook his head, not understanding what this meant

Li Jianqing slowly poured her a cup of tea, and said slowly: "The crown prince's biological father, Emperor Li Xingcheng, is not from His Majesty today, do you know about this?" ”

Li Zhilian nodded: "When I took her pulse, I found that she had long since lost her fertility."

Li Jianqing raised his eyes and glanced at her: "Emperor Li Xingcheng's biological mother is Zhang Cairen, and this Zhang Peng is Zhang Cairen's own nephew."

Li Zhilian hesitated for a while, and couldn't help asking: "But there is no record of Zhang Cairen's existence in the palace!" ”

Li Jianqing said: "When your father first ascended the throne, he was exempt from taxes for five years, built water conservancy, and vigorously developed crops...... resulting in a deficit in the treasury"

Li Zhilian nodded and looked at him with bated breath

Li Jianqing knocked on the table with his slender and white fingers: "And Zhang Cairen's father Zhang Hua was the richest businessman in Southern Xinjiang at that time, and your father intended to recruit him, first became an imperial businessman, and later gave him an official position."

Li Zhi was stunned, his hand drinking tea was stagnant in mid-air, and he couldn't help muttering: "Is this a blatant betrayal?" ”

Li Jianqing glanced at her, ignored her, and only followed what he wanted to say: "Later, he recruited his daughter into the palace and was named a talented person."

Buckle buckle ......

A person who looked like Xiao Si, with a group of delicate girls, walked slowly with a plate of dishes, put the dishes on the table, saluted, and stood not far away

Li Jianqing stretched out his hand and waved, and they bowed again

Li Zhilian poured tea for himself, and put a piece of fish meat in his mouth, the meat was delicious and tender, and the key was that there were no thorns

He glanced back at the door and asked, "That's why those sons are here?" ”

Li Jianqing glanced at Li Zhilian, who was eating vegetables in front of him, and continued his words: "When Zhang Cairen first entered the palace, she enjoyed the holy grace alone, and the scenery was infinite, and in just one month, she was found to be born with a dragon species."

Li Zhilian hurriedly asked, "What happened later?" ”

Li Jianqing replied: "Then there was no more."

Li Zhi looked at him puzzled: "What does it mean that there is no more?" ”

Li Jianqing: "It's just not recorded", raised his eyes and saw that Li Zhilian was still staring at him, so he said: "Later, His Majesty gave birth to the third prince Li Xingcheng"

Li Zhilian asked: "How can you be sure that Li Xingcheng is Zhang Cai's life?" ”

Li Jianqing glanced at her: "There are not many concubines in your father's harem, according to the time, it is not difficult to deduce that Li Xingcheng's biological mother is Zhang Cairen."

According to her experience in reading novels for more than ten years, she blurted out: "What if Zhou Zhi got it from outside?" ”

Li Jianqing glanced at her: "Are you so easy to fool when you are a royal bloodline?" ”

Li Zhilian's eyebrows jumped unconsciously, and he quickly changed the topic: "So what do you mean by saying so much, the Zhang family is being reused because of me??" ”

Li Jianqing nodded: "To be exact, because of you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now reused"

Li Zhilian said depressedly: "I am not only a murderer now, but also a strategist who stirs up the situation and helps the prince turn the tables?" ”

Li Jianqing picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, nodded and said, "That's true."

"I think I need to clarify, this character is simply good, they won't suspect that the Li Kun case that has been in a uproar recently is also from me!"

Li Jianqing listened to her words, and the corners of his lips seemed to be slightly curved: "It's possible"

"I'm just a weak woman, you don't have to me like this!" Li Zhilian said as he stuffed something into his mouth

Li Jianqing smiled: "Okay, hurry up and eat first!" The food was cold for a while."

Li Zhilian was silently eating the dishes, while thinking in her heart, it had only been ten days since she came to Ningcheng, and she had carried so many pots
