CHAPTER XXIX
Su Yiming, who was still showing a relaxed expression a moment ago, suddenly froze in the air for a moment, and then pretended to be stunned and said: "Fu Guogong is a stubborn character, although the two of us have a lot of bumps in the court, but there is really no intersection below." I don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked this. ”
Old fox.
The Fuguo Mansion has been cut by the imperial court over the years, and every time he is a scholar, he is a supporter. Now that I talk about it, it seems like a high wind in the moon, and I don't have any selfishness.
Li Cong pursed the corners of his mouth to add tea to Su Yiming, did not answer, and did not ask again.
The atmosphere in the room was a little cold for a while, and the two silently drank a few sips of tea. Su Yiming was repeatedly grateful to the prince for taking care of his daughter, and seeing that he was about to be cold, Qu Fang, who was waiting outside, suddenly opened the curtain and came in, and whispered a few words in Li Cong's ear.
"Can't sit still?" Li Cong had a sarcastic smile on his face. He turned to look at Su Yiming and said, "The regent has arrived, do you want my father-in-law to go with the palace to meet him?" ”
Su Yiming hurriedly got up and said: "The princes are discussing matters, and the official should avoid suspicion." ”
Li Cong no longer invited, and instructed Qu Fang to accompany Su Yiming and wait for Mrs. Su to come back, and then go to the side hall to see Li Zhang.
Li Zhang's expression was calm, and he was sitting in front of the couch looking at his newly planted plum blossoms. Seeing Li Cong come in, he smiled gently, "Tell you about Chunqiu." ”
Zhu Xuechen has taken office, and the test questions for Chunfu have naturally been prepared. Li Cong nodded, listened to Li Zhang talk about some changes in this year's selection exam, and listened to him mention a few young people with good knowledge in the Guozi Prison. Li Cong listened lightly and said, "These ordinary things, Brother Wang just wrote them in the documents, so there is no need to come out of here." ”
Li Zhang's mouth opened and closed again. After a while, he sneered: "This king heard that the crown princess was seriously ill, and because there was no female dependent in the palace who could send envoys to come to greet him, this king had to go away." ”
The regent was unmarried, and he didn't even have a side concubine. This kind of ordinary walking around in the palace is indeed very inconvenient.
Li Cong raised his eyebrows lightly and said with a smile: "Brother Wang has been worried about the emperor's grandmother and queen mother for a long time. It's been so long since I've been back in Beijing, haven't you met someone you like? ”
Li Zhang shook his head and said, "The prince doesn't know me yet, I've been alone for a long time, and I've been lonely." ”
Li Cong smiled silently. After a while, Li Zhang asked, "I heard that the crown princess is infected with a wind cold." It is said that if it has warmed up today, the day before yesterday, I saw that the crown princess was still very good, why is she bedridden today. ”
There is just the right amount of care in the words.
Li Cong waved his hand, picked up the wine jug from the case and poured himself a glass, and said lightly: "It's said that it's cold, but I'm afraid that my father and queen mother will worry about them." ”
Wind chill is a life-threatening illness, is it even more serious?
Li Zhang's expression froze for a moment, and then he frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that it is inconvenient for the woman's family to say it......"
"No," Li Cong also added a glass of wine to Li Zhang, and said slowly: "It was the crown princess who fell into the soup pool of the palace bath, and you know that they are all medicinal herbs that reduce bone and carcasse." How could she stand this, it was already fateful that she didn't die on the spot. ”
Only then did Li Zhang hear Li Cong's careless and indifferent attitude when he mentioned the crown princess's illness, and even had a bit of a joke attitude, his eyebrows flashed with a trace of doubt and unbearability, and finally asked: "In this case, is this disease curable?" ”
"Whatever," Li Cong took a sip of his wine glass, and said with a calm expression: "Brother Wang, you know that this palace is a person who has not lived long, and for people who have not lived long, they are not so precious as other people's lives." ”
"What are you talking about!" Li Zhang finally couldn't help but reprimand in a low voice, "The crown princess was married by you anyway, since they are husband and wife, of course they should be close to each other, and they want each other to live longer and better." If it is you who fall at this time, this king believes that the crown princess will also do his best to save him. ”
Li Cong put down his wine glass and looked up at Li Zhang. His expression was a little playful and a little sarcastic, and he looked at Li Zhang in confusion and said, "The prince has something to say, please speak." ”
Li Cong raised his hand and straightened his collar, and said mockingly: "If you want to get along with the crown princess, I'm afraid it's you, brother Wang." ”
After saying this, he leaned slightly and leaned towards the soft couch behind him. Before the spine touched the softness, the collar was held in Li Zhang's hand.
"Prince, what do you mean!" His eyes were full of anger, and he was finally not the usual gentle and elegant, although he was a fierce general, he was as soft as a Wenchen.
Li Cong raised his eyes to look at him, raised his hand and gently pushed away his hand holding his collar, and said provocatively: "Before marrying Miss Su in this palace, you can check her details." Unfortunately, I knew that she had a noble snow lotus, which was given by Brother Wang. Has Brother Wang forgotten? ”
Li Zhang let go of him when he heard this, and said with a gloomy look in his eyes: "That's just that this king wants to win over Master Su." A herb doesn't mean much. ”
"A medicinal herb can be purchased for a thousand gold, so naturally it doesn't mean anything. However, this palace heard that Brother Wang trekked alone in the Tianshan Mountains for half a month for this herb, and was almost eaten by a wild wolf. Is it so hard just to win over a Shangshu adult? ”
He smiled playfully, and continued under Li Zhang's even more dejected gaze: "So this palace suspects that the two of you have had a personal affair and doesn't want to give the crown princess a good treatment, is it reasonable?" ”
Li Zhang looked at Li Cong, and for the first time, he wanted to kill him with a knife.
No, in that case, he is seeking power, and even if he sits firmly, he will be infamous in the history books.
After a stalemate for a while, Li Zhang sat heavily on the couch and said, "This king and Miss Su have no selfish feelings, the prince, you have many secret agents, and you must have found out clearly." Now you say that only to get something from me. Say, what should I do, you will do your best to save the crown princess. ”
"I don't have any personal feelings, and I still care so much?" The corners of Li Cong's mouth curled and he laughed.
"This king just doesn't want Lord Su to be loyal to the three generations of ministers, and now because of a little misunderstanding, he has lost his beloved daughter."
"Oh-" After Li Cong let out a long sigh, he held his chin with one hand and pointed to the south with the other: "Then please ask Brother Wang to transfer Wei Huailin, who has just made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion, back from the south." ”
"What do you want to do when you transfer back?" Li Zhang said: "Besides, you don't need me to move your mouth for this kind of trivial matter." ”
Li Cong smiled lonely, unabashedly his loss of power at this time, and said, "Father doesn't know, don't you know?" Now how can they listen to a word from the palace? The counterinsurgency in Nandi has ended, and the military department has asked his father to leave Wei Huailin to garrison the Nanyi border. The military department only needs to say that it is my father's order, and I will be out of line. You transfer him back, and I will save the princess. How is it? ”
Li Zhang glanced at Li Cong deeply, and suddenly stood up and walked out.
The cool wind turned his clothes, and Hao Haoran was like righteousness.
