After Li Congxin heard Liu Peiyu report on Song Xiangjun the next day, he came to ask Gu Huanyi: "What are you going to do with the Hanxi monks?" ”

Gu Huanyi made up for his sleep, and forgot that the Hanxi monk was still in Liu Pei's hands.

In the early summer afternoon, she looked a little lazy, misty, and looked very soft and deceitful.

Li Cong couldn't help but reach out and rub her face, and felt that his hands were all calluses sharpened by weapons, so he immediately took them back.

Gu Huanyi took a sip of plum soup to wake up, thought for a while and said: "I don't want to let the tiger return to the mountain to leave trouble, but she doesn't seem to have any serious crimes enough to be sent to the government. ”

Li Congxin said: "It's not difficult, her hands are not clean." She used to be a royal luthier who often went in and out of the East Palace, and stole a lot of court secrets to Li Chengxu. If I want to send her to justice, I have ready-made witnesses and evidence. ”

Li Congxin told Gu Huanyi that he hadn't wiped out all the Hanxi monks before, but wanted to see if she would go to King Xian, so that he could follow her clues and investigate King Xian.

But Hanxi didn't go to King Xian, but instead asked Fang Yurong to cooperate, thinking that he knew that he had been exposed.

If she was so guarded, she couldn't catch a big fish with this bait.

Then she loses the meaning of her existence.

After Li Congxin and Gu Huanyi discussed, they asked Liu Pei to send the Hanxi monk to the official, and as a witness, it turned out to be her close attendant Ning Qingfeng, who was the person Li Congxin placed next to the Hanxi monk.

Gu Huanyi asked Li Congxin: "Didn't you go on an errand today?" Why is it here now? ”

Li Congxin smiled: "You are really sleepy, the emperor allowed me to take a leave of absence, let me accompany my father more." ”

Gu Huanyi patted his head and hurriedly said, "I was stunned by Song Xiangjun's anger. It's rare for you to have a reunion with King Ming, so don't always come to me, accompany him more, and let Uncle Liu pass on the word if you have something. ”

King Ming did not plan to live in the capital for a long time, and after helping his son set a parent, he would go back to the fiefdom of Jiaodong in mid-June.

Li Congxin said: "There is no conflict, I just came from my father's side, and before he left Beijing, he wanted to help us determine the location of the Shizifu." Zongrenfu has selected a few places for us to choose from, if you have nothing else to do today, please accompany me to take a look. ”

Settling down is a big deal, Gu Huanyi quickly packed up and went out with Li Congxin.

The alternative mansions were in different parts of the capital, and each mansion was very large, and the two of them walked many places in the afternoon.

When he returned in the evening, Gu Huanyi's feet were about to hurt.

Li Congxin saw her rubbing her calves in the carriage, so he rested her legs on his knees.

Gu Huanyi was embarrassed to retract his feet and said, "What are you doing, what does this look like." ”

Li Congxin grabbed her ankle and didn't let her move, and said, "It's all engaged, what are you afraid of, I'll help you rub it." ”

Gu Huanyi's face was red, and Li Congxin was very unaccustomed to serving her.

Li Congxin asked, "Which of the three mansions you see today?" ”

Gu Huan thought for a while and said: "The mansion on Changning Street is in a good location, it is close to everywhere, and the layout is also convenient for life, but the house is a little old, and it may take some time to repair, I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up with our wedding date." The view of the mansion in Comb Bridge is the best, and the lake in the house is really beautiful, I didn't expect such a big place in the city. But it's too extensive, and I'm worried it's too high-profile. Although the size, distance, and old and new of the Suzaku Gate mansion are not top-notch, they can be weighed and the most suitable for all, and this should be the best. ”

Li Congxin said: "The original palace on Changning Street was the prince's mansion where my father lived when he was the prince, and after he was crowned queen, the Zongren Mansion took back the prince's mansion, but the emperor has not given it to others, and he planned to let me live before, but I think it is too big for one person to live." No one has lived in it for so many years, and it is a little in disrepair. Comb Bridge was originally the emperor's garden for the 70th birthday of the Queen Mother, but was impeached for being too extravagant and wasteful, and the Queen Mother refused to live, and later the Queen Mother died and no one dared to live. The house in Suzaku Gate is where the emperor lived when he was a prince, and you will choose it. ”

Gu Huanyi was surprised and said, "Ah, is it the emperor's old mansion?" Then it's not appropriate for us to live, in case someone is misunderstood, we will cause trouble again. ”

Li Congxin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, they are all royal assets, and it is common to take back another gift, if you think it is not appropriate, there are two more places, we will go and see it tomorrow." ”

After looking at a few more houses the next day, Gu Huan thought about it and wanted to choose the old house on Changning Street.

It was originally the prince's mansion of King Ming, and they went to live, and no one could find fault with it.

Although it is a little old, it will take some effort to slowly repair and renovate it in the future.

Regarding the election of the official residence this time, Li Congxin knew the emperor's intentions.

As early as the two years when he first came to the capital to be a proton, the emperor often used this method to test the sons of various families.

From the official position to the seat, the emperor never makes decisions directly, but uses this way to check the character and character of each person.

But since last year, the emperor has stopped tempting him, but this time he used this routine to give the house, indicating that the emperor intended to test him was not him, but Gu Huanyi.

The emperor wanted to see if Li Congxin would change under the influence of Gu Huanyi.

Li Congxin did not tell Gu Huanyi about the emperor's temptation, first, she believed that she would make the right choice, and second, she didn't want Gu Huanyi to have new prejudices against the emperor.

When the Zongren Mansion reported the results of their selection to the emperor, the emperor specially asked the ministers: "Who is the master?" ”

The minister accompanied the whole process and said: "It was chosen by Miss Gu, and I originally wanted to choose it in the mansion of Suzaku Gate and Comb Bridge, but I heard that one is Your Majesty's official residence of the prince, and the other is the other courtyard for the Queen Mother, so Miss Gu said that it was not suitable and settled on Changning Street." ”

The emperor nodded, seeing that Gu Huanyi was cautious, he had a different opinion of her.

He summoned King Ming into the palace and said, "The courtyard of Comb Bridge has been completed for several years and has been vacant, so let the children live in it as a big wedding gift from me." ”

King Ming excused himself and said: "The specifications of the other courtyard are too high, it is not suitable for them to live, so let's live on Changning Street." ”

The emperor said: "From the heart, he is the prince and the eldest son of the clan, if it is not suitable for him to live, who would dare to live?" ”

The only one who is more valuable than Li Congxin's identity is the little prince who was born.

But if there is no accident, it is going to stay in the East Palace, and naturally there is no need for the Imperial Mansion outside the palace.

King Ming couldn't refuse, so he had to help his son thank the emperor.

When Li Congxin learned the result from King Ming's side, he was relieved to know that Gu Huanyi had passed the emperor's temptation.
