Volume III-5 Reunion of the Old (V) (I)
Reunion of the Old (V) (I)
The person who did the work glanced at him, bowed his head and said: "Tang Xinyang was originally in the forbidden army, and Qi Hai was also placed in the Ping'an Inn by him, so he will inevitably report this matter to the person in charge of the Tang family." What's more, the Tang family has taken in so many veterans, and they must have known that there was a problem with the payment of honor and pensions. When we went to check the forbidden army and the military department, we found that the people of the Tang family had already inquired. It's just that the household department is here, because the Tang family doesn't have manpower, or maybe because there is no evidence, they didn't say it. The people of the Tang family have always been relatively stable, just like they lead troops to fight, and never fight unprepared battles. Maybe they are also investigating on the household side, but it has been nearly two years since Lord Liu was transferred to Enzhao Province, and it will take time from the time they find out about the matter to send someone to verify. According to their style, it's not something that they can put out with reason, and they won't come up with it. Maybe they are still investigating, but they haven't reached a conclusion yet, as for whether they can confirm that this matter is related to Lord Liu, or just think that Lord Liu is mismanaging his subordinates, this subordinate doesn't know. Maybe in a while, let them really find out, maybe they will be impeached, I don't know. ”
"The Tang family knows this for sure, as for whether they know the details or not, it doesn't matter. What I want to know is whether Tang Xinjie or other brothers of the Tang family intervened in Qi Hai's matter and deliberately arranged to push him in front of this prince. ”
The clerk was silent for a while, seemed to be thinking, and then said cautiously: "Although his subordinates don't have a deep relationship with Tang Xinjie, it can be seen from the fact that he has been able to roll among women for so many years, but no one has come to the door to ask for debts, he is a cautious and cautious person." For many years, he was suppressed by his mother-in-law, and he has always been on the verge of the Tang Sect's forces, and he has relied on his own struggle to make Yuehuaxuan's business so big. Businessmen pay attention to harmony and wealth, he is now valued by the prince, and he is entrusted with important tasks by the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness, from the perspective of human nature, his subordinates do not feel that it is necessary for him to set up a situation to embarrass His Highness. It didn't do him any good. ”
This person has also followed Yiyi for many years, one of the companions chosen by the Queen Mother for him back then, Liang Yongqing, the son of the Liang family of Yi'an Hou who has declined. Liang Yongqing is resourceful enough, but the ancestral family has no support, so he can only rely on his talent to work beside the prince, and his ideas can survive better. All he can rely on is Yiyi's trust and appreciation. And this person has almost no intersection with Tang Xinjie and the other brothers of the Tang family, if it is really related, it is that he should regard Xinjie as a competitor. His words made Yiyi's doubts in his heart lessen slightly.
After Leung Wing-ching finished speaking, he just stood there quietly, what he said was just facts and human feelings. But Tang Xinjie is very human...
Liang Yongqing waited for a while, Yiyi finally waved his hand to him, and he quietly retreated. As soon as I left the courtyard door of the study, I smelled a smell of lily mixed with fat powder wafting in. Liang Yongqing frowned slightly, turned around and left expressionlessly.
"Lord Liang," a delicate voice called him, as if three taels of candy had been dropped. Leung Wing-ching's eyebrow lines deepened unconsciously, as if he didn't hear and continued to walk forward, disappearing around the bend without looking back.
Behind me, I saw the beauty of the Prince's Mansion, Luo Che, biting her lip and standing in the twilight blankly.
"Beauty, we're here to bring tea to the prince." The maid beside her reminded her.
Luo came back to his senses and habitually touched his temples: "My hair and dress are not messy, right?" She asked the maid beside her.
"Everything's fine."
Luo Che put a soft smile on his face before stepping into the courtyard door of the study and walking towards the central hall where the prince was. Everything was quiet, and there was no one else except the guards and eunuchs on duty. She obediently walked to Yang Quan'an, who was standing at the door: "Father-in-law Yang." ”
"Luo Meiren, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still busy."
"I know, I won't go in either, just trouble Grandpa Yang to help me bring this tea in. This is rice tea. The last time Your Highness tasted it at my place, he said that it was delicious, and he drank several bowls in a row. Today, I think the weather is relatively dry, and I want to moisten it for His Highness, and I specially went to fry the fried rice to make it. ”
"Who's out there?" Yiyi asked.
"It was Luo Meiren who brought rice tea to His Highness." Yang Quanan replied.
"Let her in."
Luo squinted and smiled, nodded politely and thoughtfully to Yang Quan'an, then turned around and took the tray from the maid's hand and entered the study, while her maid stood quietly outside, staying by Yang Quan'an's side, and smiled at him charmingly, but Yang Quan'an's face was expressionless, and his eyes seemed to look into the distance above her head, not knowing what he was thinking. The maid quickly flattened her mouth and stood beside Yang Quan'an with her head down, catching the movement inside in her ears. She was relieved until she heard the sound of a teacup falling to the ground, followed by Roche's disgusting and contrived voice that made the woman feel disgusted when she heard it.
Yang Quanan was also pulled back to his senses by the movement inside, frowned and glanced in the direction of the study, and then hurriedly instructed the little eunuch to pass water and toiletries. After a while, a group of palace maids and eunuchs came over with their things, and stood outside the door in a row waiting. After a quarter of an hour, I saw that Luo's face was crimson, and his temples walked out a little loosely, and he was still straightening his clothes and belts as he walked. Yang Quanan waved his hand, and watched the people waiting with the water go to wait first, and then he turned around and instructed the little eunuch: "Go and call a soft sedan chair to send Luo Meiren back to the courtyard." ”
Luo's face was all harmless and shy, only a smug smile on the spring breeze, raising a pair of eyebrows, and said sweetly: "Father-in-law Yang is just going to take care of people." After speaking, he glanced at his maid with a little arrogance. The maid quickly stuffed a purse in her hand into Yang Quan'an's hand, Yang Quanan didn't look at it, and gave it to the little apprentice behind her: "Luo Meiren has worked hard." The beauty will wait at the gate of the hospital, and the soft sedan will come in a while. After speaking, he stopped caring about her and went in to wait for Yiyi by himself.
Yang Quan'an waited for Yiyi to clean and change clothes, and after the others withdrew, he asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want to change the candles in Luo Meiren's yard?" ”
Yiyi raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a rare sneer outside: "No, it's just a thing." ”
The maid helped Luo Meiren to the gate of the courtyard and exchanged a cheerful look with each other. The prince lived alone in the study most of the time, and had not been to any woman's yard for more than ten days, and she was the only woman who had been pampered in the past few days.
The news soon spread to the courtyards of the various masters of the East Palace. Concubine Yan's maid Qingmei was waiting for her to eat steamed cheese, and when she heard the little palace maid come in and finish speaking, she said disdainfully: "She has the ability to stay in the study courtyard." Our concubines don't like to fight with them. Previously, the side concubine went to see the prince for business, and the side concubine was afraid of disturbing the prince's business. It's not like these shameless ones, they are all trying to find some excuses to go. ”
"Qingmei," Concubine Yan sank her face: "Didn't I tell you not to be competitive like this?" Let's just do our duty. ”
"Master, you are too duty-bound. You were given to Her Royal Highness by the Queen Mother, and you grew up with Your Highness, and you have different feelings from others, and they all rely on foxy means. Qingmei was still not convinced.
"Don't you want to stay with me anymore?" Concubine Yan asked with a sigh.
"Master, isn't the slave unworthy for you? You see that for so many years, there are so many women in this East Palace, His Royal Highness really only cares about you, you look at these jewelry, beautiful dresses, they are all gifts from His Highness, those women don't have them. But you are always indifferent to Your Highness, in case one day Your Highness is tired and annoyed, and is unwilling to come to coax you, what can you do? ”
Concubine Yan shook her head and took a deep breath: "Where is he coaxing me, he is clearly just..."
Yiyi slowly stirred the tonic soup in the bowl with a spoon, watching a trace of heat come out, and didn't want to drink it. He has been sick for many years, and he can't figure out which woman he fell after pampering him, although his health is fine, but it doesn't last long, and he will be unable to do it after three or two strokes. It's just that he already has several children, so there is no criticism of him inheriting the throne in this regard. But he has always been haunted by it in his own heart. For many years, people have been quietly treated, but it has always had no effect.
"Old Yang," there was no one else around, and he called Yang Quan'an intimately: "You go to check what is wrong with Luo's tea today?" ”
"Is there anything uncomfortable about Your Highness?"
"Not really. It's just that today is a little more work than usual. I want to find out if it's because Xinjie taught me to practice the internal strength and tuna that played a role? Or what the hell did Roche do. ”
Yang Quanan nodded, although he was a eunuch, he was also a martial arts master: "You have been back from the Turks for more than half a year, right?" I've been cultivating internal strength for a few months. Internal forces must be helpful in this matter. ”
"Of course, I hope that it is the effect of internal forces, and only that is the long-term solution. It's just that this Roche is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. If her tea today is just an introduction, Ming'er will let Luo Zhibin be transferred to the Ministry of Industry. If she dares to do anything and affect my long-term cultivation, you know how to deal with it. ”
"The old slave knows."
"People say that those Qinglou women who go out to sell are ruthless and only recognize profits, you look at these women from official eunuch families, in fact, they are even more dirty than those women. I can't forget her childhood sweetheart in my heart, but the family has declined, and it seems that there is still affection and righteousness before, and I came in a blink of an eye to serve food to this prince. ”
Yang Quanan didn't answer, this kind of thing is not something that he can comment on at will.
"You say, if she marries outside, what kind of man will she marry? Could the man have three wives and four concubines snub her? ”
Hearing this coldly, Yang Quanan was very frightened and didn't know how to answer. However, Yiyi didn't expect him to have any answers.
