Chapter 154: Xiping Comes to the Door

"In addition, when this king came into contact with them during the day, although there was arrogance in their words, they still tried their best to be thoughtful about all the rational numbers, and it seems that they are really strong and inward, and there is nothing to be afraid of."

"What the prince said is very true, it is estimated that when they see Your Majesty, they will suddenly change their attitude, and only ask Your Majesty to believe in their loyalty and give them a place of shelter." Liang Xin nodded in agreement.

Su Jingye was noncommittal to Liang Xin's words, he did have some reason, turned over the information about these two vassal kings in his hand, and suddenly frowned.

"I'm not worried about them, but more importantly, these two vassal kings in the west of Midsummer." After Su Jingye finished speaking, Liang Xin took over the conversation, "Why does the prince think so?" ”

"There is nothing wrong with the honor guard of the King of Xiguang, just ordinary people, as for the King of Xiping, not only did he bring fewer soldiers, it is said that when he entered the city for inspection, he brought several carts of tribute, which shows his submission to His Majesty."

"The King of Xiguang was originally specially set up by my father in order to clamp down on the King of Xiping in the west, but this king is not worried that the two of them will join forces." Su Jingye groaned, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"The key is that the relationship between this King of Xiping and the King of Nanyang was very good, and now the King of Nanyang has fled and has no whereabouts, and I don't know if these King Pings have anything to do with it."

"If King Xiping has the courage to hide the King of Nanyang privately, he should be more cautious, how can he mess around with several other vassal kings, first cut and then play." Liang Xin was surprised for a moment, and after thinking about it, he felt that Su Jingye was too nervous.

"I'm afraid it's because he had a good relationship with King Nanyang that he was afraid that His Majesty would be angry with him, so he deliberately brought so many good things to please His Majesty, and his subordinates felt that this was human nature."

"What you said is not unreasonable, just think I'm overthinking." Su Jingye stared at the record on the paper, and his suspicion of King Xiping was still not weakened, after all, the number of tribute vehicles brought by King Xiping was too much.

"By the way, the last time I arranged for you to go outside the city to bring Yuzhi, can it be done? How is Ruyu doing at home? ”

"The subordinates have the trust of the prince." Liang Xin sighed deeply in his heart, and then immediately frowned and fell to the ground on one knee. "Everything is fine in the princess in the house, but Yuzhi is in trouble."

"Just because of the entry of these vassal kings into the capital, His Majesty, in order not to let them find out about the capital, reissued the five stones, and asked the Taiwei to guard the city gate and prevent others from entering and leaving easily. It's convenient for a subordinate to come and go, but they can't bring things back. ”

"This is fate, but I don't know that Your Majesty's move can be regarded as self-defeating." Su Jingye could only sigh silently, suddenly clenched his hand into a fist, and slammed it on the desk.

"If you can't continue like this, this king will enter the palace another day and explain the reason to Your Majesty, otherwise, I am afraid that the people in the capital will be consumed to death."

"It's just that the subordinates are worried that even if the prince tells this matter, His Majesty may not believe it, after all, the way the princess proved that Yuzhi was effective at that time was also a sword that went off the rails, and it was impossible to say. In case the prince told His Majesty truthfully, I am afraid that His Majesty will still point the finger of suspicion at the prince. ”

Seeing Su Jingye's indignant look, Liang Xin was shocked, and he was afraid that he would do something stupid, so he stood up and hurriedly persuaded him. But persuasion didn't seem to have any effect, Su Jingye still insisted, but her eyes looked much clearer.

"The body is not afraid of the shadow, this king is naturally not worried about His Majesty's suspicion, anyway, it is not the first time, if he can save the people of the city, it will also be a great achievement." Su Jingye said and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"When the king takes care of the matter at hand, he will enter the palace immediately, at least before the vassal king enters the palace, otherwise there will be no chance when they meet."

"What the prince said is very true." Liang Xin nodded, Su Jingye casually instructed him to take good care of Jiang Liuyu after he went back, and Liang Xin got up and disappeared into the night.

It's just that Su Jingye made this good calculation and planned carefully, but others didn't give him this opportunity. The night before Su Jingye wanted to enter the palace, King Xiping suddenly came to the door.

At that time, when the envoy came to report, he only said that the king of Xiping had encountered some trouble, Su Jingye was curious and worried about losing the face of the dynasty, so he followed, who knew that when he pushed the door in, the house was full of light, and there was a table of good dishes in the middle of the room.

On the small couch on the side of the room, King Xiping was leaning cross-legged on the railing with his back to Su Jingye, and several beautiful women were hugging left and right beside him.

The women were dressed in revealing clothes, and there were silver bells ringing between actions, although it was difficult to see, Su Jingye knew that this was the characteristic costume of a certain ethnic group in their west, although some were not used to it, but it was still not strange.

Hearing someone push the door in, King Xiping and the women stopped feeding each other wine, and King Xiping lifted the veil tent, tilted it back, and waved his hand at the envoy.

"You're ready to go out."

Su Jingye turned his head to look, and the envoy went out in response and closed the door of the room. As soon as he saw this posture, Su Jingye understood, I am afraid that it was the king of Xiping who came over under the pretext of coming over and begging for something.

After thinking about it, Su Jingye's back straightened even more, and the look on his face suddenly became a lot more serious. "I don't know what the king of Xiping is looking for this king to come over, it's late at night, please rest well, and I'm waiting to enter the palace tomorrow."

"The prince is very concerned about everything, even the private life of this king is very concerned, no wonder His Majesty would rather let the prince surrender his identity and ask the prince to come to receive us."

King Xiping said, and took the wine glass to feed a sip of wine to the woman next to him, the woman's mouth was too small, this sip could not be drunk, the excess wine dripped on the clothes on the upper body, the scene was so beautiful that people could not bear to look at it directly.

The other woman next to her suddenly laughed with King Xiping, and she didn't know whether she was happy with her looping fun or laughed at Su Jingye secretly. Su Jingye couldn't look at it, so he looked away, and he was upright when he spoke.

"To do things for Your Majesty's worries, and to be picky about the noble and low, it is too ignorant of what to do. Now that His Majesty has not been on the throne for a long time, it is also within his share of the courtiers' worries for him, why does the King of Xiping make a big joke with this and amuse people, but he is afraid that when it reaches His Majesty's ears, His Majesty will definitely blame him. ”

"If you don't say it, if I don't say it, who can know?" Hearing this, King Xiping seemed to be a little anxious, and hurriedly put down the wine glass, "I believe that the prince will definitely not do such an unacceptable act, this prince just feels that it is not worth it for the prince." ”

"Whether it is worth it is worthy of the king's own judgment in his heart, and he will not change his mind casually because of a word or two from others." Su Jingye's face was serious, and he didn't ease down because of his deliberate flattery.

The king saw that the king of Xiping seemed to be doing well, so he took his leave. I hope that the prince will not bother again if there is no major event next time, after all, there is not only the prince who is the master of ceremonies. ”

"Don't be angry, it's all the king's fault, it's the king who said the wrong thing." Seeing that he turned around and was really about to leave, King Xiping immediately got off the bed, and regardless of whether he had put on his shoes or not, he hurried up and grabbed Su Jingye's hand.

"Lord Wang, please pay attention to your manners." Just now, King Xiping was having fun with others, and he was only wearing underwear, but now his clothes became wrinkled between movements.

Now he was still wearing this crumpled clothes and came over to pull Su Jingye, which made Su Jingye's angry brows stand up, and he was about to put aside his pull, and King Xiping's eyes were sharp, and he let go of his hands before he moved.

"Don't be angry, the king just said a few words to the prince, and the prince doesn't want to listen to it. It's just that now please sit down with peace of mind, this king has something to discuss with the prince, this matter is about His Majesty, I believe the prince must be interested in listening to it. ”

"What do you have to do with Your Majesty?" Su Jingye really stood still, although he was skeptical of his words, he still didn't leave immediately.

"The prince will know when he listens to it later." King Xiping grinned and led him to sit down in front of the wine table.

The two women who were still playing with King Xiping on the couch just now thought that Su Jingye was really leaving, but when they saw him staying, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately stepped on their smooth feet, picked up the wine on their small feet, and walked towards the wine table with a smile.

After Su Jingye sat down, he was forcibly poured a glass of wine by the woman before he could speak.

"Lord Wang, let's try the wine of our Xiping Palace, which is different from the capital." When King Xiping saw the people around him currying favor with Su Jingye, not only did he not stop him, but he teased him with great interest.

But Su Jingye didn't give them this face at all, and forcibly poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth, which he immediately spat on the ground.

"In order to be able to better take care of the lives of the lord of ceremonies, this king must not drink alcohol especially at night, otherwise he will be blamed by His Majesty, and I ask the prince to forgive me."

Su Jingye hates these self-asserted people the most, and now they have reflexively lost their face, although they didn't do it deliberately, but at least King Xiping deserved it.

"It's just a glass of wine, and the prince is too careful." King Xiping's face stiffened for a moment, but it was fleeting, making the scene just now seem to be an illusion.

"In this case, the prince will try some dishes first, this king sees that the prince is very tired these days, and he is distressed, thinking that the prince has not been able to eat a good meal after all, these can be regarded as consolation and consolation for the prince's hard work these days, just talk about the heart."

Saying that, King Xiping very affectionately used his own private chopsticks to pick up vegetables for Su Jingye. Su Jingye's brows frowned, as for this meal, he was not in the mood to eat it again, so he immediately stood up.

"Since the prince has been selling Guanzi, then the king will not accompany him, and the prince will have fun by himself, so the king will not bother much, so he will leave."
