Chapter 818: Liu Hengyuan
On the way back to the palace, Murong Hui thought clearly about the situation of the princess of Lijun, and others only felt that the king of a country must be supreme.
But he didn't know that a county king with no real power had no right to speak in the court except for worry-free food and clothing.
If you encounter a suspicious emperor, these county kings will live like quails, and they will be scared.
Maybe it's not as comfortable as ordinary people, but fortunately, they met Murong Jun, who is quite open-minded, and he can only live a good life for a few days.
Princess Lijun wants to bring her own family, but she can't count on her husband, so she naturally wants to find foreign aid, and Murong Huiming is a ready-made.
How much Murong Hui can help her in the future, how good she can be to Qingxue's children, such conditions are not difficult for Murong Hui.
"Your Royal Highness, this princess of Lijun is really good at picking the time, obviously grasping the weakness of His Highness."
Qingyue on the side, seeing that Murong Hui had not spoken for a long time, complained in a low voice.
"Hugh is talking nonsense! The king and princess of Lijun are a young husband and wife, and they have a very strong relationship, so even if the princess of Lijun fails to give birth to an heir, the two are still in love. In such a situation, it is uncomfortable for individuals to suddenly have to raise someone else's child and inherit the throne in the future. ”
Mama Tang on the side rolled her eyes, feeling that Qingyue, a girl, sometimes thinks about things too subjectively, and only cares about her own feelings.
The slave just complained a few words, and what Mama said was right, but what if her nephew was not of good character? His Highness still has to support him, isn't that embarrassing His Highness? ”
Qingyue shook her head and said helplessly.
Everyone couldn't help but be silent after hearing this, this is indeed a problem, after all, His Royal Highness wants to gamble on his connections to support this person.
If he is a muddy person who can't support the wall, I'm afraid that he won't be able to climb up by then, and he will have to burden Murong Hui.
"Mama Tang, give a post to Princess Lijun, just say that I will go to her house as a guest in the near future, and meet her relatives by the way!"
Murong Hui pondered for a moment and felt that it was necessary to meet him, so that he could conclude that it would be better to arrange an errand for him at that time.
And she can't arrange it blatantly, if it gets in the way of the eyes of the emperor and queen, although they won't say anything, they will be awkward in the end.
Murong Hui didn't want the emperor and queen to have any bad impression of her, and she couldn't help but have a headache.
Mama Tang responded, feeling a little worried inexplicably, feeling that she should have stopped Murong Hui just now and prevented her from agreeing so easily.
It's just that it's too late to say anything now, so she has to arrange carefully, and at the same time take the time to inform Lin Yingxue at this time.
Lest the East Window incident happen in the future, Lin Yingxue was instigated by the villain, thinking that His Royal Highness was interfering in the government.
"Your Highness, you can count it back, just now Zhao Gongzi asked someone to send something, saying that it was a gadget sent from the south, and it was left for His Highness to enjoy."
Seeing everyone coming back, Qingyan immediately leaned over to Murong Hui and whispered.
Taking off her cloak, Murong Hui rubbed her somewhat sore shoulders and walked towards the dormitory.
On the table in the dormitory, there are indeed many knick-knacks, most of which are strange ornaments, with ordinary materials but interesting shapes.
There are also some clay figures, their expressions, eyebrows and eyes are the same as ordinary people, they are simply vivid, and if you look closely, this villain looks like her and Zhao Yu.
Murong Hui was afraid that people would see her, so she had to put the two villains in a box, and put them at the head of the bed and occasionally take them out to take a look.
"When I was a child, I gave me these knick-knacks."
It's just that she never admitted that she liked this little clay figure, and still said stiffly.
Although others saw it, they only pursed their lips and smiled, and no one pierced her thoughts.
Three days later, Murong Hui led a group of people and rushed towards the Lijun Palace.
It was the first time she came to the Lijun Palace, so after seeing the simple and elegant courtyard in the mansion, it was very novel.
She has been to many palaces, but among so many mansions, this is the only mansion that makes her feel the real family heritage.
"Your Highness, please come here, the princess has been waiting for a long time."
The maid on the side was not in a hurry, and only quietly waited for Murong Hui to finish admiring it before saying respectfully.
After a few people entered the main hall, they saw the princess of Lijun chatting with a young man.
Seeing Murong Hui coming in, the young man hurriedly got up and saluted respectfully: "Student Liu Hengyuan, meet Princess Linghui." ”
"Pingshen, since you are Aunt Li's nephew, we are also relatives, so you don't have to be formal."
Murong Hui nodded and said to Princess Lijun: "I heard that my aunt is not feeling well today, so Hui'er specially brought some supplements, and please smile." ”
"Sit down, is Linghui going to test Hengyuan's knowledge?"
When Murong Hui first entered the door, Princess Lijun's expression was still a little displeased, but after listening to Murong Hui's words, her eyes became confused.
Now he was a little calmer, but he seemed to be a little dissatisfied, which made Murong Hui a little puzzled.
She thought about it for a while, and she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong, so she didn't think about it anymore, but shook her head and said: "Liu Jinshi is a second-class jinshi, and there is no need to talk about knowledge." Why don't you ask Liu Jinshi and Hui'er to play a game, how about a high and low? ”
Chess is like character, so Murong Hui wants to play chess to see how Liu Hengyuan's conduct is.
Princess Lijun was born in a family, and she was fluent in free piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she naturally understood what Murong Hui meant.
nodded, finally had a little more smile on his face, and said softly: "Beitang, go and bring my set of warm jade chess, how about you play against each other?" I'd like to see it too. "Let's search for books
"Naturally, it's a guest and a host."
Murong Hui nodded, and then looked towards Liu Hengyuan.
Liu Hengyuan hurriedly smiled: "Listen to my aunt." ”
He has actually been living in the palace of Lijun, and yesterday the princess of Lijun told him angrily that when Princess Linghui heard that his character was not good, and he would come to embarrass him tomorrow, he was a little apprehensive.
But although his family bears the name of the family, in fact, the talent is withering, and it has already declined, so under such circumstances, he can only endure it, thinking about the opportunity to act.
After seeing with his own eyes this princess who heard that she broke into the Hou Mansion and beat people in Beijing, and was not in harmony with all the noble women, he found that many rumors were really not credible.
This princess is obviously gentle and calm, although she is not very old, she is a person with rich experience and very politeness.
After the chessboard was taken, Murong Hui and Liu Hengyuan each held their chess pieces and played against each other seriously.
Murong Hui has received Zhao Yu's guidance over the years, so his chess skills are among the best among his peers.
Liu Hengyuan has been best at actuarial calculation since he was a child, he actually has no intention of being an official, and prefers to study his obscene tricks, but those things are considered to be unpopular.
He carried the hopes of his family, and he could only study hard with patience, and after gaining fame, he went to Beijing to join his aunt and struggled for the future.
Therefore, the two were on par for a while, and Princess Lijun's eyes were straight when she looked at them from the side.
The letter from her mother's family did mention that this nephew was very good at arithmetic, but she didn't expect to be so good at it.
Princess Linghui can also compete with him, and the two of them have been for a long time, and they are stunned that they can't tell the winner.
"Besides Zhao Yu, you are the second person who can play against me for so long."
After a long time, Murong Hui sighed with emotion that she occasionally went to the chess hall to play against him, but except for Zhao Yu, she didn't win against him.
Now that she has met another opponent, she can't help but feel a little excited.
"Your Highness has won the prize."
Liu Hengyuan was also a little surprised, when he heard that Murong Hui was going to test him with a game just now, he was still thinking about whether to let a few sons, so as not to let Murong Hui lose too ugly.
However, now he felt that he could only deal with the other party with all his might, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised in his heart.
"Have lunch first, and then you can go down in the afternoon."
Princess Lijun got up, moved her waist without a trace, and sighed in her heart, what a teenager.
"Then I'll bother Aunt Li."
Murong Hui saluted respectfully and said with a smile.
Princess Lijun smiled a little reluctantly, feeling that she really shouldn't have listened to those rumors again and again.
Looking at Murong Hui's style of playing chess just now, she also knew a little more about Murong Hui's temperament, and felt that it was inconsistent with the rumors.
After the three of them had a simple meal, Murong Hui and Liu Hengyuan continued to play against each other.
It took an hour to determine the winner, and Liu Hengyuan only won Murong Hui's son.
"I heard that Zhao Gongzi has superb chess skills, I think you learned from him, I have some expectations, when I can play a game with him."
Liu Hengyuan only felt enjoyable now, but it was hard to say, so let the princess of the dynasty accompany him in the next game, so he sighed.
"What's so hard about that? Give you a membership card, and if you go to the chess hall to play chess in the future, you can be given a discount, and Zhao Yu often goes to the chess hall to play chess. ”
Murong Hui smiled, she was relieved after getting along, at least this son was not a despicable person.
On the contrary, he seems to be very clever and good at layout, and if he is placed in the right place, he will definitely shine.
"I heard about this chess hall early in the morning, but I didn't know that it was opened by His Highness, thank you, Your Highness."
Liu Hengyuan was a little flattered, this chess hall is quite mysterious and famous in Beijing.
Most of the officials and students in Beijing have gone here to play chess, and many of them are skilled in chess.
"Each of the six ministries has its own duties, what kind of official position are you best at?"
Putting down the chess pieces in his hand, Murong Hui looked curiously at the pendant on Liu Hengyuan's waist, if he was not mistaken, it should be a Luban lock.
"If you can let him enter the household department and the official department, it's best if you really can't do it, and the punishment department is fine."
Before he could speak, Princess Lijun had already made a decision for him.
Liu Hengyuan didn't say anything, the struggle in his eyes flashed, he wanted to say that he wanted to enter the Ministry of Engineering, but in the end or the Ministry of War, he endured it.
"I'll help you arrange it when I go back, the official position will not be too high at first, you be patient, as long as you are motivated enough and be cautious, the official position will be promoted sooner or later."
Murong Hui naturally saw his thoughts, but since he had made his choice, Murong Hui respected his choice.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your help."
Liu Hengyuan reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said respectfully.
