Chapter 33: Choosing a Son (1)
The noble lady Li likes the fragrance of Herui the most, and at this moment, the green smoke in the dormitory is full of smoke, and the fragrance is pleasant.
Li is crooked on the couch, admiring the flowers by the window, very comfortable.
Huan Dan brought a pot of plum blossom wine into it. Seeing that Li was in a good mood, Huan Dan put the wine on the table next to him, knelt beside Li, rubbed Li's legs, and said, "Madame is really like a god, and the slave really admires it." ”
Li Shi got up slowly, picked up a glass of wine, took a sip, and said: "The so-called success is in the sky, and the plan is in the people." If you don't calculate the things of the world, how can you do what people want! ”
Li raised his leg, and Huan Dan knew that Li signaled him to stop, so he hurriedly got up and poured wine for Li with a pot.
Li was about to sip wine, so a nearby maid entered and said to Li: "Madam, Cailan asks to see you." ”
The corner of Li's mouth was hidden, and he nodded, and the maid came out of the inner hall, and then led the palace maid named Cailan into it.
This Cailan was originally a little palace maid of the Huanyi Prison, and she was punished for kneeling on the remote palace road because she accidentally washed the clothes sent by the inner chamberlain.
Cha Li's paper kite was broken, and he looked for it here, and when he saw the girl's cleverness, he took it back to his palace.
When the palace moved south from Pingcheng, the Li family took advantage of the chaos to place it in the queen's cloak room. Because Cailan was still young when she entered the palace, and she had been working in the Huanyi Prison, no one knew about it, but now it has played a big role.
Cailan bowed to the Li family, and when Huan Dan approached to help him up, Li smiled and said: "Cailan, thanks to your cleverness today, the queen was able to be reprimanded by His Majesty, and I can achieve it with one plan." ”
Cailan hurriedly said: "The slave is just acting according to the lady's instructions, and the queen's alternative dress today is smoked with Zhilan incense, because the fragrance of Zhilan is quite similar to the fragrance of Huilan, which the queen loves, so if you don't smell it carefully, I am afraid it will be difficult to distinguish." ”
The corners of Li's mouth raised, and he said contemptuously: "The Xiao family and Jixiang have served the queen for many years, how can they not distinguish between them?" The queen has always been hypocritical, and I calculated that she should change her clothes again. There are only five sets of regular clothes and two sets of court clothes every day, even if she is the queen, there is no special. When the palace maid of the storage garage sent her dress to change, she would not be too late. ”
After taking another sip of wine, Li continued: "The concubine gave birth, she is the queen, and she will not dare to say that she made a mistake because of changing clothes." ”
Huan Dan hurriedly echoed: "Madame has a strategy, and the slave really admires it. ”
Li Shi put the cup in his hand on the desk, his face was full of concern, and said, "But who is suspicious of you?" ”
But seeing Cailan, she shook her head and replied, "The slave sank all the remaining incense into the bottom of the lake in the garden." Even if the queen is suspicious, it is unfounded. ”
Li nodded and said, "That's fine, I don't want you to make a mistake." ”
When Cailan heard Li say this, she was very moved in her heart, and hurriedly said: "The slave swears to die and is sent by his wife." ”
Li Shi smiled slightly, and said no more.
Seeing this, Huan Dan approached and said to Cailan: "Madame knows that you have always been sincere, and I will not treat your family members outside the palace badly." In the future, when avoiding people's eyes and ears, don't come without an edict. ”
Hearing Huan Dan's words, Cailan looked around and saw that there was no one else, so she said softly: "The slave has something urgent to tell Mrs. at this moment." ”
Li wanted to send Cailan away, but after listening to her words, he got up slightly and said, "Oh? Listen to me. ”
Cailan took half a step forward and said: "The slave just sent the queen's dress to the door of the dormitory, and was stopped by the queen's maid, who took the clothes and ordered the slave to leave quickly. When the slave came out of the inner hall, after a while, he saw several maids who were close to the queen on weekdays also hurried out. The slave was surprised, and when they all left, the slave quietly hid under the eaves of the porch outside the window. ”
Cailan lowered her voice and said, "The slave heard that Nurse Xiao, the queen and Mrs. Yuan said that Your Majesty wants to choose the right and right sons for the prince..."
When Li Shi heard this, he was stunned in his heart, but he said quietly: "You are really a clever child, I didn't misunderstand you." Go back, lest any one be suspicious. ”
When Cailan left, Huan Dan whispered: "Madam, this is an opportunity to get close to the prince, don't miss it!" ”
The Li family poured a full bottle of wine for himself, drank it all, and said: "He, the Feng family, claims to be loyal and good, but he calculates everything. My father never discussed the affairs of the court with me, but was blindly loyal to His Majesty. Now that the empress dowager is about to end, His Majesty may not treat her as before, so I want to fight with him Feng for the Li family. ”
Putting down the ear cup, Li collapsed and paced slowly in the hall. The fragrance of the coaxies in the air made her heart happy, and it was not long before Li took it to heart.
Li said to Huandan: "Go and invite Concubine Zheng." ”
Huan Dan understood and hurriedly walked out of the inner hall.
