Chapter 339: The Prince Summons
Father. ”
"Hmm." The face of the prince was also dark.
When Xu Shizi saw it, he felt much more comfortable. Fortunately, he was not alone in getting along with the person he liked and was interrupted by the prince, Xu Shizi thought to himself.
When the prince saw the smug face of the prince, he instantly understood what he was thinking. The prince glared at Xu Shizi and said dissatisfiedly: "It took so long to come out and lay eggs in the courtyard?" Hum! ”
Xu Shizi immediately understood that he had misunderstood the prince of the thunderbolt just now, and it turned out that the prince of the thunderbolt was unhappy because he had been out for too long. Xu Shizi touched his nose in embarrassment, coughed twice and said, "Let's go." ”
The prince glanced at the prince, flicked the whip, and the horse galloped on the avenue. Xu Shizi also twitched the horse's ass and chased after him.
After entering the palace, the guards immediately led the two to the imperial study. After entering, I saw that the crown prince and King Ning were there. The prince and the prince saluted one after another, and the prince waved his hand casually to exempt them from the number of salutes.
The prince beckoned the two to sit down, and asked his father-in-law to pour tea for the two, then looked at the prince with a smile, and asked slowly, "How is the princess lately?" ”
These words just caught the heart of the prince, and the gloomy face of the prince instantly softened, the corners of his mouth rose high, and he responded briskly: "Thank you for the prince's concern, she is very good." ”
"Okay, let the princess have a good rest at home. Gonggong Li," the prince also smiled, said, and then beckoned to Gonggong Li on the side, Gonggong Li stood beside the prince with a bent over, waiting for instructions, "You go to the treasury to pick up some supplements and send them to the palace of the king of Li." ”
"Yes."
"Wait a minute," Gonggong Li was just about to turn around, but was stopped by the prince again, the prince paused, and said while thinking, "Is our Ministry of Internal Affairs the new storage of two fine Ganoderma lucidum?" ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
"You go and fetch one and put it in the tonic and send it to the Liwang Mansion." The prince said.
Gonggong Li paused for a moment and immediately replied, "Okay." The prince's gaze moved to the door of the main hall with the figure of Gonggong Li, and then nodded with satisfaction.
"The lower official has thanked the prince for his inner son here." Xu Shizi knew that the two Ganoderma lucidum trees were newly paid tribute in the Western Regions, which were the most precious tributes of the largest family in the Western Regions, and the Lingzhi in the sample was only seen in the past ten years, and the prince did not hesitate to give it to their palace in the palace, and Xu Shizi was still very moved in his heart. He knows that women's childbirth is the most dangerous, and Ganoderma lucidum can often save lives. The prince's affection, Xu Shizi is very willing to accept it.
"Your own brother, you don't have to be polite." The prince replied with a faint smile.
Xu Shizi's expression was obviously much better than when he first entered the door, and then asked, "Why did the prince call Weichen to enter the palace?" ”
A look of shame flashed quickly on the prince's face, he put down his left hand holding the chair handle, put his right hand up, and his body turned slightly from the right to the left, and then slowly spoke: "You also know that the palace has not been quiet in recent years. You have come up with ideas for this palace, is there any way to make the situation in the palace better? The palace also wants to pray for the blessings of the father, the queen mother, and the imperial grandmother, hoping that they will get better soon. ”
Prince Li's eyes flashed, and then he nodded very calmly in response: "The prince is a filial person, presumably the emperor will definitely be touched by your filial piety." ”
When the prince heard Prince Li's reply, he paused, adjusted his sitting posture again, coughed falsely, and then looked at Xu Shizi, and said, "How old is Ah Xu getting married?" With that, he lifted his chin slightly and looked upward.
"Eighteen." Xu Shizi furrowed his brows and responded.
"Axu is more than two years younger than Hongu, but now Axu's children are about to be born, just right." The prince said with envy on his face, "I think that Ah Xu was the little overlord of our capital streets, and everyone thought that he would be like this for the rest of his life. However, after he got married, he wanted to change as a person. Now, he is able to run errands on his own and take care of his family. Where will anyone remember his domineering appearance in the capital back then. Now, when the people saw him, they all praised him as a good husband and a promising man, and they regretted that they did not put their own daughter in your palace in the first place. ”
The Lord smiled and didn't say anything.
Xu Shizi raised his eyebrows and replied modestly: "That's all the wrong love of the people, don't listen to the lies outside." ”
Hearing Xu Shizi say this, the prince was not happy, and immediately waved his hand and said: "This is all the truth, this palace will judge itself." In recent years, you have been working around Hongu, and you can see how you have become. The people did not boast of the wrong man. ”
"That's thanks to Your Highness's insight." Xu Shizi bowed slightly and thanked him.
"So men grow a lot after they get married." The prince answered.
"Hmm." Xu Shizi nodded in agreement.
The prince stared at Xu Shizi with an expectant face, as if he was looking forward to Xu Shizi's next words, but Xu Shizi did not speak again after nodding.
The prince couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, and pushed the hair on his forehead with his right hand, and exhaled. Then, I heard the prince cough, and I saw a hidden smile on the face of the prince of thunder. Glancing at Xu Shizi and King Ning again, there was a smile overflowing from the corners of their mouths.
The prince's throat was blocked in one breath: these three people are really unkind, obviously understanding their intentions, but the three of them don't cooperate at all, and every time they respond, they bypass the answer he was expecting, obviously on purpose.
The three of them still didn't say anything, the prince sighed, his shoulders relaxed, and said helplessly: "I don't know how the three Aiqing think of a happy event in the palace?" ”
"Happy event? The emperor is in this state now, I'm afraid it's not good, right? "Xu Shizi obviously deliberately misinterpreted the prince's meaning.
The crown prince glared at him and said, "It's been more than three years since the palace entered the palace, and no one has been added to the East Palace, and the royal bloodline still has to be inherited." ”
"Okay, then the king will let the minister arrange a draft for His Highness later." The Thunderbolt Lord promised.
"Uncle Wang." The prince couldn't cry or laugh, and finally had to pick out, "Bengong and Miss Shen have been engaged since childhood, and now we are both past the age of marriage." This palace should not let a girl's family wait anymore. Please ask Uncle Wang to help arrange it. ”
"Oh, it turns out that His Highness wants to get married." Xu Shizi nodded in realization.
She has waited for Bengong for so many years without regrets, and Bengong doesn't want to live up to her. This palace wants to give her a grand wedding that everyone envies, and give her a noble status that everyone in the world envies! An imperceptible look flashed on the prince's face, and when it disappeared, there was a slight look of guilt on his face, but his gaze was very determined.
As soon as the prince's words came out, the other three fell silent. There was an approving look on the face of the prince of the thunderbolt, and he listened to the prince's words and nodded again and again. There was also a smile on the corner of Xu Shizi's mouth that could not be ignored, and his eyes were shining. On the other hand, King Ning's face was a little dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Then, I heard the prince continue: "Now that the emperor and the queen are unable to take care of things, I will only have a few of your family members left. So, I hope you can give the greatest blessings and help to my wedding. The crown prince turned his head to look at the prince and pleaded sincerely, "Uncle Wang, you are my elder, and this matter will be entrusted to you." ”
From "Bengong" to "I", it is not difficult to see the sincerity of the prince's attitude and his deep affection for the eldest lady of the Shen family. As a superior, it is rare to be able to lower his posture for a woman. This kind of behavior may be inconceivable in the eyes of other officials, and it is not a proper behavior. However, in the eyes of a man like Prince Li, who treats his wife as a treasure, the prince's human charm instantly rose again.
"Don't worry, Uncle Wang will definitely give a satisfactory wedding." The Lord replied happily.
Coming out of the palace, the prince ran directly to the country. Xu Shizi and King Ning went back to their respective homes, and when they parted on the forked road, King Ning called Xu Shizi to stop, and Xu Shizi looked at him puzzled. King Ning was silent for a while and said, "Is the princess okay?" ”
"She's fine, the prince has a heart." Originally, Xu Shizi was a little unhappy when he heard that King Ning cared about Shen Yafei, but when he saw that King Ning's face was not very good, he immediately took back the mean words that were almost on his lips.
"Wait a minute, the king asked the princess to send some supplements," Xu Shizi's first reaction was to refuse, King Ning saw the change in Xu Shizi's face and knew what Xu Shizi thought, so he didn't wait for Xu Shizi to refuse, and immediately added a sentence, "The princess has done so many things for the princess and son of this king, this king and the princess are very grateful, and I also want to express our gratitude." ”
Xu Shizi glanced at King Ning's face, and then said, "That prince is here to thank the prince for Xiaoya." ”
After speaking, the two of them said goodbye, and just turned the horse to the way back to the house, Xu Shizi suddenly turned around and looked back, and at this time he could only see the back of King Ning. King Ning didn't seem to be in a good mood today, Xu Shizi shook his head, and thought, these are not his own responsibilities. Besides, all of this was brought on by King Ning himself.
Shen Yafei and Princess Pi were playing games in the mansion, and when they saw Xu Shizi coming back, they both put down the things in their hands. Shen Yafei stood up to meet him, and Xu Shizi hurriedly quickened his pace and walked to Shen Yafei and held Shen Yafei's arm.
Princess Li's eyes swept over the two of them, and then fell behind the prince. Seeing that Princess Pi kept visiting behind him, Xu Shizi knew that she was looking for Prince Li, so he said, "Father, he still has something to do, and he will come back later." ”
"What's the matter with the prince calling you into the palace?" Shen Yafei returned to her original position and sat down with the support of Xu Shizi, and Xu Shizi also squeezed into Shen Yafei's position and sat next to Shen Yafei.
"The prince wants to add people to the palace." Xu Shizi poured himself a glass of water and poured two sips directly.
