Chapter 9 The Message of Beijing

In the next period of time, because of Li Jijiang's return, the Lanyue Hall ushered in peace for a while.

If she doesn't go to Shangyang Palace anymore, she doesn't want to go out at will and cause any trouble, Tao Yao simply nests in the room to read, in addition to letting Hongfu always pay attention to the movements in the palace, she almost doesn't go out of the door all day long, but it is more regular than when she is at home. During this period, she also received letters and pastries sent to the palace by Gao Xianzhi, as well as gorgeous clothes sent by Princess Taiping.

When he left Chang'an, Gao Xianzhi told her that in order to further make a name for himself in the army, only if his status is more respectful, can he have a greater say than his father. So, for a while, he shouldn't be able to come to see her as often as before. Moreover, her identity is different now, and until they hold the power to decide their future fate, it is still possible to meet in private, which is also out of prudence.

Tao Yaozi has no opinion on this. The man's ambition should have been in the country, and only in such a strong and passionate place is where Gao Xianzhi shines, and she will never restrain him because of her children's private affairs. As for Princess Taiping, she didn't expect it at all.

Her slender white fingers caressed a magnificent and flowing brocade like a glowing shadow, and her eyes involuntarily deepened a little. What is the meaning of this?

"What can be the deep meaning, it is nothing more than a gift from Her Royal Highness the Princess." Listening to the master's unconscious muttering, Hongfu, who was walking in with a plate of cherries, subconsciously answered: "How many days have you been by her side, as an elder, it is human nature for her to want to send something to show her concern, why did the little county lord drill the horns." ”

Will it be that simple? Tao Yao raised her eyebrows, looking disbelieving. If it's someone else, forget it, but Princess Taiping ...... Would she do such a pointless thing?

"Or, I should go to the Zhenguo Princess's Mansion to visit this elder." Since Li Xian ascended the throne, Princess Taiping was named Princess Taiping of Zhenguo, and was also rewarded with a splendid mansion. It just so happened that it wasn't a matter of a day or two that she and Wu Youji didn't get along, so she moved directly to the princess's mansion to live alone, and even her two children were not allowed to enter without permission, which was really ruthless to the extreme.

Originally, when she first arrived in Shendu, Tao Yao wanted to come to the door to say hello, but because Li Xian's attitude was unclear, and she didn't know much about Princess Taiping's situation, it was inevitable that there would be suspicion of partisanship if she bothered rashly. Therefore, after delaying and delaying, it has come to this point, seeing that Li Xian is completely relieved of herself, and Princess Taiping has shown an attitude of taking the initiative to show goodwill, she doesn't need to worry so much anymore.

Pushing the white agate plate containing the red and bright cherries towards Tao Yao's hand, Hongfu just sighed: "Forgive the slave and the maid for talking too much, Her Royal Highness the princess probably won't have the time to see you at this moment." ”

"Really?" Tao Yao casually twisted a cherry and played with it, with a look of surprise on her face: "Do you know what she has been doing lately?" ”

"Not only the slaves and maids know, but I'm afraid there are few people in the whole god who don't know." Hongfu's tone was mixed with a heavy helplessness: "Her Royal Highness the princess has opened the government office, recruited staff members on a large scale, and also bought private property in other courtyards everywhere, and built a large number of buildings, so she is very busy." ”

"Staff?!" Tao Yao was frightened and shocked: "How dare she, her majesty is not her mother now." "The staff of a princess of a country, to put it mildly, is a talented and martial arts official, but in fact, what is the difference between this and a blatant male pet?

In her impression, Princess Taiping is definitely not a person who is greedy for men and lascivious, so she must have recruited these people under her command to come in handy in the future. If she looked at it this way, she hadn't given up her ambitions yet, but with such a big move under the noses of Li Xian and the martial arts family, wouldn't she be worried that she would become a target for others?

"Let's just say that you have nothing to do and go out for a walk, don't sit still all day." Hongfu pushed open the window in front of the table with one hand, letting the breeze with the fragrance of flowers blow in outside, and suddenly swept away the silence in the room: "Now it's not as good as before, there are already seven princesses who have opened a government office, and they all recruit talents in a decent manner, and the most powerful of them is Princess Anle." Princess Taiping is compared to her, it is drizzle, Your Majesty doesn't even care about her own daughter, how can she interfere in her sister's affairs. ”

"Li Bao'er also wants to find a staff member?" Tao Yao automatically ignored the first half of her maid's words, and her face was already full of confusion.

No wonder, no wonder Princess Taiping not only refused to keep a low profile, but also intensified her publicity. She actually wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to fight with Li Bao'er to fish in troubled waters, just like when she naturally gave the latter eye medicine in front of Wu Cao. Anyway, it is not an overnight thing for her and Li Bao'er to look at each other unpleasantly, and anyone who sees it will not feel that there is a problem.

Take advantage of the blind spots of people's hearts and make their own arrangements openly. Princess Taiping's move is really bold to the extreme, but it is delicate and proper, which makes people have to sigh. Based on this alone, she is definitely the person who is most like Wu Cao.

"It's not just looking for staff, according to the opinion of slaves and maids, it's real to circle money." Pouting, Hongfu said the news she had found out one by one: "I heard that the officials of Princess Anle's Mansion have been flooded, and most of them are peddlers and pawns, as long as you pay enough money and goods, you can get the corresponding official position. It spread among the people, and it was made into a nursery rhyme, and now the children in the streets and alleys are singing it, but it is lively. ”

This appearance is inevitably a little too ugly. Tao Yao frowned, she really couldn't understand what Li Bao'er wanted to do. She knew that Wu Cao's success had brought unprecedented hope to all the women in the Tang Dynasty, and the ambitions of the people in the royal family were even more rapidly expanding, and everyone couldn't wait to follow suit. However, how precipitous that position is, is Wu Cao's eloquence and courage, didn't he also experience a coup d'Γ©tat and was finally expelled? Princess Taiping is okay, she has courage and means, and she is cold-blooded and ruthless enough, but Li Bao'er is just a vase at best, why does she dare to have such a thought? I'm afraid that the people of this Miyagi are all carried away by the supreme power, right?
