Chapter 289: Lost
Si Boyan stretched out his hand to hold the eldest princess's hands and said, "How did my aunt say that?" β
"Your Majesty has the intention of establishing a posterior? His Majesty has this intention, but he has never mentioned it to the palace, so it can be seen that the palace is not important to His Majesty. β
Si Boyan pursed his lips and smiled, and said comfortingly: "I don't know where my aunt heard this kind of thing?" I said before that the one who gave birth to the dragon son was the last. There is no dragon son at the moment, how can I have the intention of establishing a future? β
The eldest princess's sorrowful face faded a little, and her face was a little more indifferent: "However, this palace heard that His Majesty gave the relics of the former queen to a woman. The relic was left by the former queen to Her Majesty's queen. β
Si Boyan had already been prepared, and when he heard this, he pursed his lips and smiled.
"It's all a misunderstanding."
"Oh?"
"Before the Qixi Festival, I went to Xuanlingguan for a private visit, and met Chang by chance, and accidentally damaged the love token left by her husband, and I couldn't go away, and there was nothing else to carry on my body at that time, so in order to appease her, I compensated her for the chain of the queen mother. I said that I would have to get the chain back in the future, but I would put it with her first. β
"I see?" The eldest princess was suspicious, and when she saw Si Boyan nodding, she didn't know whether to be angry or annoyed for a while, "You are too hasty, it was left to you by your mother, it is of great significance, no matter how anxious you are, you can't just pay her for it." β
"Auntie, that bracelet is Zhang Changxiu's token of love to Chang's family, and now that Zhang Changxiu has died in the line of duty, that is also her only thought, and the significance is not small." Si Boyan reasoned with the eldest princess meaningfully.
The eldest princess heard him say a lot, frowned, and said, "Your Majesty, are you so partial to her because of Zhang Changxiu?" β
"It's mostly because of Zhang Changxiu. At the beginning, someone wanted to blow up the mines in the thirteen counties, which would be a huge blow to the big clan, Zhang Changxiu was unfortunately killed for guarding the mine, I not only commended, but also sympathized with his family. And this Chang does have some talent. β
"Your Majesty is benevolent, but this Chang clan has reconciled with Zhang Changxiu, and I heard that it was just after Zhang Changxiu's first seven days. After that, he became entangled with King Huai. It can be seen that this woman is not a checkpoint, and His Majesty is sympathetic and partial to her, for fear that it will make people laugh. The eldest princess earnestly advised Si Boyan, "Moreover, even if she is talented, she will not let His Majesty make an exception and arrange her to be in the East Pavilion, and the woman is an official, what kind of system is this?" β
Si Boyan was not in a hurry, patted the eldest princess's hand, and said solemnly: "Auntie, this is not because I deliberately favor, but also because of the teaching policy I want to implement. β
The eldest princess looked puzzled.
"Auntie, since I ascended the throne, I have admired the world's learning, improved the people's customs, and selected more talents to benefit the people and seek long-term benefits for the great clan. Therefore, all counties are encouraged to set up schools and set up county history to manage them. Si Boyan said arrogantly, "It is not only for the people of the country to seek talents, but also to make some changes, since ancient times, there have been women who do not let their eyebrows, and the appointment of female officials is also to encourage the people to learn." Moreover, Chang Le is only a temporary repatriation, and he does not participate in the political affairs of the previous dynasty, so he can be regarded as a painless existence. But wouldn't it be cost-effective to promote better implementation of policies through her? β
"It turns out that Your Majesty's heart is for the people of the country." The eldest princess's face softened a lot, and she said, "But this person's character is not good after all." β
"It's probably because the folk customs of the thirteen counties are simple, the women are open, informal, and not bound by etiquette, so they often make people feel out of line." Si Boyan tried his best to defend Chang Le, "She is not bad by nature, and I asked King Huai, he and Chang really have no children's personal affairs, but just treat each other as friends." β
"It's too close to be a friend."
The eldest princess finally blamed her, and under Si Boyan's brainwashing, she actually felt that this Changle was not bad. Last time, she also asked in person, and when Chang Le faced the relationship with King Huai, she did answer frankly enough. However, I still feel that my heart is in response.
"I heard King Huai say that he contradicted his aunt this time because of Chang's case. King Huai must have been eager to protect his friends, so he didn't pay attention to it, and Chang Le was indeed wronged. Auntie, seeing that he is also sincere, the adults will forgive him and don't care about him. β
"He bumped into Hongu, not once or twice. He also never treated Hongu as an aunt. For the sake of this matter, it is indeed his reason, and the palace no longer cares about him, and finally the matter is revealed, the wicked are punished, and everything is over. β
"My aunt is really extraordinary." Si Boyan took the opportunity to praise, "Huaiwang has a childish heart, and he doesn't understand his aunt's good intentions, so he must understand it one day and will be grateful to his aunt." β
"Don't put a high hat on Hongu here. is almost thirty years old, and he is still in the heart of a child, which is too much to say. The eldest princess said, and a smile spread on her face, "He is not close to the palace, and he is not tight." He treated Chang like this, it seems that he is a person who values love and righteousness, I heard that this time Chang can clear up his grievances, and he relies on Yi Zhao. Your Majesty, you say, does King Huai have to repay him well? β
Looking at this posture, Si Boyan knew that the eldest princess wanted to mention the marriage of King Huai and Yi Zhao again.
The eldest princess had mentioned this matter in his ears a few times, but he said that it still depended on King Huai's attitude and tried his best to speak for King Huai. The eldest princess wanted to say more, but she couldn't do it.
At this time, the eldest princess saw that there was an opportunity to mention this matter again.
Si Boyan said with a smile: "In this matter, I am afraid that King Huai will not have the slightest gratitude." Yi Zhao saved the Chang family, not King Huai, and King Huai would not admit this kindness in vain. However, he should be able to see Yi Zhao's goodness, and he may be able to treat Yi Zhao better in the future, and he will ...... day by day."
The eldest princess was a little too lazy to listen to Si Boyan's fooling, and when he said this, he was obviously playing Tai Chi again, refusing to care about King Huai's marriage.
"On other days, it is not impossible for King Huai to fall in love with Yi Zhao." Si Boyan continued, seeing the eldest princess's curiosity, she chuckled, "The day of my marriage is not far away. β
"Since ancient times, this marriage has been the words of the matchmaker of the parents. The eldest brother is like a father, and it is only right for you to decree marriage now. The eldest princess wrinkled her eyebrows.
"Auntie, don't worry, if he likes to drag, let him drag it." Si Boyan smiled meaningfully, "I'm still waiting." β
The eldest princess understood the meaning of Si Bo's words, and she didn't know what to say. The emperor knows everything and has his own arrangements, so what can she do? But although the emperor said so, it doesn't mean that there is no need to worry about having a royal heir. Just in case, she still had to think of a way to force King Huai.
β¦β¦
August 15, Mid-Autumn Festival, the sky is refreshing.
Last night, Shan Neishou raided Huaiwang's Mansion with a holy decree, and came to reward Chang Le with the holy emperor's decree. Chang Le inexplicably had an additional official position, becoming a member of the Danqing House in the East Pavilion, and was also responsible for the portrait of the eldest princess at the Mid-Autumn Festival birthday banquet.
"Although, King Huai said that this person is useless." Chang Le muttered happily, glanced at the serious guard next to him, and his eyes were crooked, "But being able to enter and exit the palace freely shows that the role is not small." β
"Miss Chang, you can only go in and out of the East Pavilion, and you can break in other places, but you will be killed." The guard reminded.
"Got it, thank you for the reminder."
Chang Le combed his head with a jade crown, wore a blue-gray man's Confucian costume, hid his hands in wide sleeves, and walked slowly in the palace road. The breeze came through the pavement of the palace road and raised her clothes.
For a moment, Chang Le imagined that she was a cold and tall Confucian now, and the picture of her walking at this time must be a beautiful scenery.
Wow β
A cool breeze blew in her face, making the cold hairs on her neck stand up. Only then did Chang Le recover from his fantasy and realize that something was wrong around him. Although, it is not very unusual to see palace maids coming and going on this palace road, but what is going on with a little depression everywhere?
Changle lowered his head and found the fallen leaves rolling in the wind, trying to struggle back into the tree from the ground. The roots of the wall are overgrown with weeds, the huge gray brick palace wall is exposed to the cold temperature, and there are a few gray sparrows standing at the head of the wall, jumping back and forth, not afraid of people at all.
"Little brother, are you taking the wrong path?" Chang Le hesitated for a few moments and asked the guard who led the way.
Turning your head, where is the shadow of the guards around? The long palace road, she is alone, and the deep cool breeze.
Chang Le swallowed his saliva and looked high, only those gray sparrows could be seen. Some of the grey sparrows barked at her twice, as if to laugh at her stupidity.
"His uncle's, the old lady has been rectified again!"
Chang Le clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and cursed, and kicked up a piece of gravel. The stone flew down not far in front of her, startling a gray sparrow foraging on the ground.
She originally thought that she would enter the palace to see what her working environment was like, and by the way, she would find De Aihua and show off her strength with him. After all, she has become the first female official in ancient and modern times, although it is the position of the East Pavilion of the Inner Palace, it is still rare!
As soon as she arrived at the gate of the palace to explain her intentions, the guards just now took her into the palace and blocked them from the door. Unexpectedly, this guard is not a good thing, and he actually set her up!
"It's okay, I just remembered the way!"
Chang Le stomped his feet angrily, straightened his clothes, and returned the same way in a menacing manner.
A quarter of an hour later.
Chang Le faced a completely unfamiliar palace road and lost himself.
This palace road is even more desolate than the one just now, and looking through a palace door, you can see that it has been uninhabited for many years.
"That little brother took me around and around just now, and I completely forgot how to go." Chang Le scratched the root of his ears weakly and sank, "But, what does this mean?" Do you want me to get lost in the palace and then starve to death here if I can't get out? This kind of trick is too naΓ―ve......"
"But it worked."
Uncle Baili flashed out of her ruby and sat on her shoulder, his head turning, observing his surroundings. Although, Chang Le doubted that his vision would be completely blocked by white eyebrows.
"Uncle, are you here to rescue me?" Chang Le smiled and said, "Where should I go, can you show me the way?" β
Uncle Baili's head turned left and right again.
Chang Le carefully tugged at his flying longevity white eyebrows: "Uncle, why don't I help you pull your eyes away?" β
