Chapter 204: Tooth Pain
On the second day, Liu Yichen came back from duty in the palace, and the first thing he did was to ask what Yanxin had said to Qin Huai last night.
"I heard that Qin Huai entered the palace overnight yesterday and made a big fuss in His Majesty's palace, which scared several nobles and ladies not to make a time, and today when the old ministers of several princes only mentioned a few words, His Majesty changed his mind, and after the next dynasty, he left the second prince alone and said a few words, and His Majesty went to see the prince in person."
At this time, Liu Yichen was still wearing an amber round-necked court dress, and his hat must have pressed his forehead, in fact, he was suitable for such a dress, and he also longed for the time when he was an official in the court.
Yan Xin retracted his gaze and asked with a smile, "Isn't this a good thing?" ”
Seeing Yan Xin's disapproving appearance, Liu Yichen became more and more excited, thus emphasizing.
"What's even more suspicious is that Your Majesty also blamed the second prince for his poor protection, so that the third prince's illness has only slightly improved so far, so that the third prince must be allowed to participate in the state banquet, otherwise he will be punished for the crime of bullying the king."
Yan Xin had roughly guessed what would happen in the court today, and Liu Yichen's relay made him affirm his thoughts.
She put down the painting book she was holding, and not only thought deeply: "It seems that our plan has worked, and the status of the second prince has been shaken." ”
"Come and tell me, what did you let Qin Huai say to Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty changed his mind so quickly. You must know that the queen washes her face with tears every day, and she has not exchanged a word of grace from the emperor! ”
Liu Yichen couldn't wait to pull open the chair at the table, his eyes full of anticipation.
"I just told Princess Qin Huai the allusion of her heartache, and asked her to tell Your Majesty in a different way, and the bigger this movement is, the better, so she broke into Your Majesty's palace and disturbed the attendants and concubines."
Yanxin originally wanted Qin Huai to break into the imperial study or the back garden or something, but he didn't expect Qin Huai to be impatient and resolute, so he broke into the harem directly.
However, this is also a crooked hit, and the effect is no worse than other methods.
Liu Yichen quickly searched the few ancient classics in his mind, but he didn't find a single impression at all.
He couldn't help but ask, "Is this...... What is the allusion to toothache? ”
Yan Xin smiled, this story is from "Filial Piety" People like Liu Yichen who deal with military books and martial arts all day must disdain to read these books, so he doesn't know this story.
"In ancient times, there was a filial son named Zeng Shen, who served his mother extremely filial. Once, when he went into the mountains to collect firewood, there happened to be a guest at home, and his mother bit her finger with her teeth without knowing how to entertain him. At this time, Zeng Shen suddenly felt distressed outside, and quickly returned home with firewood on his back to ask the reason. The mother said that a guest had arrived suddenly, so she bit her finger to let her son know. ”
Yanxin slowly explained the origin of this allusion, and also explained why it must be used at this time, but Liu Yichen still touched his chin and stared at Yanxin's following.
"This story is about the family relationship between mother and son, Qin Huai occasionally felt uncomfortable and cried into the palace to ask to see, this is a great filial piety, Your Majesty will only be relieved to know, at this time if it is mentioned that her two brothers are still suffering, then Your Majesty will definitely be unbearable." The banquet could only continue, estimating Qin Huai's practice at that time, and the results that this practice would cause.
"It's as simple as that?"
After finishing speaking, Liu Yichen still didn't want to believe that when it would be the turn of a princess and a girl to solve this matter in the court.
Yan Xin shook his head, stood up and came to the window, opened the window as if it were shining, and let the sun shine, and said bluntly.
"This is not simple, if you just say this, you may not even be moved, brother, but if the princess says so, coupled with her crying and embarrassment, Your Majesty will definitely be moved."
Liu Yichen thought about what Yanxin had said last night, and her attitude of serious thinking, and couldn't help but mention: "So you just said yesterday that this matter can only be handed over to Princess Qin Huai to do?" ”
"Yes, this is not only because he is His Majesty's favorite daughter, but also because she is arrogant and indulgent on weekdays, only knows how to ask for it, and rarely shows such filial piety and concern for His Majesty, so His Majesty will definitely feel it."
People are like this, once they get used to a person's goodness, then this "good" will become a should, if they are used to a person's badness, then the "good" after that will cause joy and gratitude.
Yan Xin is well versed in this place, and he has also calculated that His Majesty is now jealous of Qin Xuanlang's forces, and he will inevitably pick out a prince to maintain this balanced situation, which is ...... is the way to check and balance.
After hearing so much, Liu Yichen came to a conclusion, "You actually know so much about royal affairs?" ”
The success of all these things is based on Yan Xin's understanding of the Tianyu royal family, if there is no such understanding, then no matter how many schemes there are, it will be useless.
And the feast heart of this question finally choked.
She did not hesitate to spend half a year learning the rules of the palace for Qin Xuanlang, memorized the list of ministers of various families, and read history books to understand the story of the Tianyu royal family, just to be a good queen.
But what about ...... No matter how much she learns and understands, she can't escape her husband's betrayal.
Now these things that have been learned for Qin Xuanlang have become her help for revenge, Qin Xuanlang could never have imagined that the achievements he achieved back then would be avenged on him today.
Yan Xin put aside those thoughts, pointed to the book in his hand and prevaricated: "It's just that I have read more picture books, you boys have ambitions in all directions, so naturally you will not have an in-depth understanding of these wild history anecdotes." ”
"And what are you looking at now?" Liu Yichen also became interested, picked up the book and flipped through it casually.
Yan Xin looked at the books behind him and said bluntly: "This is the story of Ye Hanshuang, the mother of the three princes. ”
"Ye Hanshuang?" Liu Yichen is no stranger to this name.
The mother of the third prince, Ye Hanshuang, was demoted to a commoner because of her participation in the murder of the queen, and the Ye family was once deeply affected by the emperor's favor and was also implicated because of this incident, so they were in an awkward position in the court.
This incident was well known back then, and the three princes were also in a state of collapse because of this, so in order to protect themselves, they could only realize that they could do nothing and do nothing to ask the imperial power, so as to avoid the queen's sight.
"And what does this have to do with your next plans?"
What Ye Hanshuang did back then was a failure, and besides, the Ye family had already severed all relations with this daughter, Liu Yichen didn't understand that mentioning this matter at this time wouldn't it cause dissatisfaction among the Ye family and the emperor?
But Yan Xin's idea is just the opposite, if you want Your Majesty to pay attention to this son, you must untie the knot in everyone's hearts, no matter whether Ye Hanshuang was really framed back then, Yan Xin will re-compile this matter, so that His Majesty feels that he owes something to Qin Xuanming.
Although the crown prince is not successful, he is still controlled by the queen behind him; The three princes were guarded, but fortunately, they had no intention of power. Qin Xuanlang is still smart, and he didn't ask for anyone's life for the time being, otherwise the forces behind that party would fight with him to the death, and he would not be able to get any benefits.
"Our purpose is to support the three princes, so it is necessary to unravel the truth of what happened back then, and return Ye Hanshuang to an innocent person, so that we can use this to send the queen to Qin Xuanlang."
Yan Xin named their ultimate goal, and only in this way can they find the best opportunity to kill their opponents.
In the previous matter, Yan Xin didn't know if Qin Xuanlang still had a mustard in his heart, anyway, the prince was just a pawn to distract Qin Xuanlang's attention, and it was not impossible to use the prince to gain Qin Xuanlang's trust while secretly protecting the three princes.
Liu Yichen finally realized it and felt that this method was indeed feasible. "The crown prince is bound to accumulate a lot of money again, and the second prince must be at a loss, if you can offer a plan to pull down the queen at this time, the second prince will definitely agree."
"Once you have Qin Xuanlang's help, this matter will definitely succeed."
Yan Xin didn't believe in her means to turn things around, but she trusted Qin Xuanlang's ambition to seek a high position.
It seems that the dance on the day of the state banquet can't be avoided.
She breathed a sigh of relief, took out the letter that had been clipped in the drawing book in the morning, stuffed it into Liu Yichen's arms, and said with care.
"Brother, help me secretly hand over this letter to the second prince when I go to court tomorrow, he will naturally understand my thoughts after reading it, and he also knows how to cooperate."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll do it."
Liu Yichen nodded and was about to rush back to see what Lu Mang was doing, but it happened that Yan Xin spoke again, and then he retracted the feet that had been sold and continued to listen.
"In addition, you have to explain that your place will not be biased towards either side in the court, but you will definitely obey my wishes, so that the second prince will not make things difficult for you, and he will try to avoid confrontation with you."
The purpose of the banquet is to make it more convenient for the elder brother to hold his position in the court, first, not to fall into the mouth, second, not to cause His Majesty to be dissatisfied, and third, not to be asked by Qin Xuanlang.
Liu Yichen just walked to the door after agreeing, but when she was about to go out, she found that Yanxin was following her, so she asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I've been bored in the post house all day and can't move around, of course I'm going to go next door to see what new things are in the Qiang mission." It is not so easy to plan a big event to pull down the queen on the day of the state banquet, she must get Qin Xuanlang's cooperation.
Of course, this is what she said about the bad thing that can avoid the emperor's marriage, just ask the queen if she is in trouble, how can she ask for marriage with peace of mind?
She smiled and blinked, Liu Yichen immediately figured it out, Lu Mang had mentioned Luo Yunxi sneaking in before, and he also understood his sister's intentions, so naturally he didn't stop it.
"The second prince has a lot of eyeliner, although I have asked my own soldiers to guard around, but you still need to pay attention to your words and deeds."
"It's different if you're promoted to the rank of captain, you listen to your brother at the banquet!"
