Chapter 142: Dissecting the Heart (5)
After listening to this, Shangguan Lihua was also pondering Jiang Biming's words, and then said to Li Shangqing and Jiang Biming: "What is the situation in the DPRK now, presumably even if Shangguan Lihua doesn't say it, the two of you can see it clearly." Now that the crown prince and the queen are powerful, Chen.... Although the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen has no intention of winning the championship, he still can't escape being drawn into the battle for succession. As the prince, this is something he can't escape no matter what, and the crown prince Xuanyuan and the queen family will not let him go. Whether he has the heart to change anything, I don't know for sure, but I believe that with his ability and mind, he is enough to be able to do the Haiqing River Banquet. The Dingguo Mansion is also the same as me, and also hopes that the Xuanyuan Dynasty can open up territory in his hands and return the people to a peaceful life of living and working in peace and contentment. At least the people don't have to worry about starvation, cold, and misery. ”
Shangguan Lihua's words, to a certain extent, have already said Xuanyuan Yuchen and his own plans very bluntly. She didn't worry about whether what she said would make the two people listening incomprehensible or unclear. She was sure that perhaps, what they were waiting for was their own confession.
Sure enough, after hearing Shangguan Lihua's almost straightforward words, Jiang Biming's eyes lit up and brightened, and finally turned gloomy. He really hoped in his heart that he could follow the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen in the future, and then make a great career for the unification of the whole world. However, then I thought to myself, if I missed this year's scientific examination, perhaps, if I didn't have a reputation, how could I assist the three princes Xuanyuan Yuchen openly?
Shangguan Lihua didn't miss Jiang Biming's flickering eyes, and he also knew why Jiang Biming's eyes flickered at this time, but in many cases, there were always trade-offs and gains and losses. Perhaps, who can say for sure whether Seon lost his horse or not? Just like this, Jiang Biming at this time chose to follow him back to Yunzhou to pick up his old mother, and he may miss this year's imperial examination, but he has not said anything certain. After all, what is the current situation in the court, the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen and the current saint will not be unable to see clearly. Moreover, if the matter of Yunzhou at this time is not bad, it must not only be a matter of floods, but more importantly, if she takes this opportunity to rectify the officials of Yunzhou, then it is still unknown whether this year's imperial examination will be held as scheduled as usual.
I have to say that what Shangguan Lihua thought of, in the near future, when the news of the sudden delay of the imperial examination for a month spread throughout every township in the Xuanyuan Dynasty, Shangguan Lihua himself was a little funny. At this time, she really didn't dare to say that the imperial examination could be postponed as an exception. This is something that has never happened before.
Li Shangqing naturally did not miss the flickering light in Jiang Biming's eyes. However, she didn't know how to persuade such a thing. Just like herself, why she wanted to have a relationship with Shangguan Lihua from the beginning, in addition to the fact that she really really hoped to get acquainted with Shangguan Lihua and become close friends, a very important reason was also because of the Dingguo Mansion. She and Li Shangwu have received the favor of the Dingguo Mansion, and more certainly, they have received the favor of the official pride of the Dingguo Mansion, so if it is possible, she and her brother Li Shangwu do not want to see that one day, they will become opposites of the General Mansion and the Dingguo Mansion. Because the masters you support are different and your positions are different, in the end, either you die or I live.
Although Li Shangwu did not tell her about the current situation in the court, but over the years, as long as Li Shangwu and her returned to Beijing, Prince Xuanyuan Yuling would openly and secretly show favor to his brother, even if she didn't ask about the government again, she definitely couldn't do it and didn't know anything. Besides, that time on Beichen Mountain, she had also seen the ups and downs between the crown prince Xuanyuan Yuling and other princes, although there was no conflict on the surface at that time, but the prince's words still had the intention of wooing courtiers and talented students in the open.
It is precisely because of these things that Li Shangqing wants to confirm what the attitude of the Dingguo Mansion towards the princes is. Now, Shangguan Lihua's words have clearly told herself that the attitude of the Dingguo Mansion is her attitude of Shangguan Lihua, which makes Li Shangqing secretly relieved in his heart, and at the same time, he also has a deeper understanding of Shangguan Lihua.
She didn't look down on Shangguan Lihua originally, on the contrary, she admired Shangguan Lihua's talent and knowledge very much, and now, because Shangguan Lihua has been no less resilient than a man in the past few days and the grace that flashed in her eyes when she said these words to herself and Jiang Biming today, Li Shangqing was even more convinced that she had not made this friend wrong. At this moment in Li Shangqing's heart, he was even more sure that in addition to his talent and knowledge, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Shangguan Lihua may also be extremely powerful in scheming people's hearts.
Why did Li Shangqing have such thoughts, because she also felt that Shangguan Lihua seemed to have an extremely accurate grasp of the psychology of the two of them, whether it was for her or Jiang Biming. When did they say what kind of words, and what they thought in their hearts, maybe Shangguan Lihua also had a grasp in his heart, so he dared to say such serious and rigorous words to the two of them without concealment. She didn't worry at all, if one of her and Jiang Biming didn't really want to stand in the formation of her and the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen, what would happen, and what kind of dangerous situation would she put herself in.
Shangguan Lihua doesn't care what kind of thoughts she will have about the psychology of Li Shangqing and Jiang Biming when she seems to be reckless and willful to say such earth-shattering words, at this time, since she dares to say such things in this deserted place, first, she believes that she also believes in the vision of the third prince Xuanyuan Yuchen, and she believes that Li Shangqing and Jiang Biming are not like the prince Xuanyuan Yuling, or Shangguan Qihua and others, and they will definitely not do such perfidy. Second, even if Jiang Biming and Li Shangqing behaved strangely after hearing their words, Shangguan Lihua was not worried. After all, hasn't the best killer of the 'Ghost Twilight Pavilion' been secretly protecting her all the time, and can she be at her disposal? It's a big deal, after Li Shangqing or Jiang Biming had even the slightest abnormality, she ordered 'Yi' to kill the two of them.
Therefore, Shangguan Lihua really didn't have any nervousness in his heart. She really thinks so. Not to mention how ruthless she is in such a mind, but she is already very sure that on this road, even if she wants to stop, she is afraid that she can't.
