Chapter 46: Waste of Talent
"Crackling!" The second prince dropped a white porcelain teacup, "This Mingsi Mountain man really doesn't know how to lift, and his old eyes are dizzy!" ”
The guard Hongyuan was embarrassed, and he wanted to remind his master that his family was called Siming Mountain, but correcting his slip of the tongue at this time was tantamount to looking for death, so he chose to remain silent quite wisely.
"What are you talking about, what are you doing standing stupidly!" The second prince glanced at Hongyuan.
"Your Highness, the slave thinks it's a good thing that Siming Mountain people choose the prince." Hongyuan tried to keep his tone as calm as possible.
"A good thing? Is that a bad thing to wait for the prince to be killed by the crown prince, ah?! The second prince roared with his bloody mouth open, and for a while his spit flew sideways.
Hongyuan closed his eyes tightly and weathered the storm.
"Your Royal Highness, the crown prince is not as powerful as before, after so many years of confrontation between the two of you, once this balance relationship is broken, the emperor is still alive and ......"
The second prince calmed down and thought about it carefully.
Indeed, the father favored the crown prince. Even if the Chen Guogong Mansion withered overnight at that time, the prince claimed to be a salt and iron enemy, and the emperor turned a blind eye to it.
The father and the emperor have never treated the crown prince differently.
The second prince threw an inkstone in frustration.
"What's the reply from Shangshufu?" The second prince settled down and continued his work of winning over forces.
"Uh......"
"Bastard thing, I don't know how to lift, my old eyes are dizzy!" The second prince split a plate of pastries.
"The slave said that Shangshu Mansion is willing to serve His Highness." Hongyuan hurriedly explained.
The second prince snorted: "Count him as acquaintances!" ”
On the second day, Lord Shangshu was impeached by a group of juniors, every word was fine, small and large, and even the reason for asking for leave had to be carefully asked - the old hen in the family died, and his mother called him home to drink soup.
Shang Shu's head turned slowly at an old age, and they spoke one after another very quickly, so naturally they couldn't keep up.
Shangshu is also an old minister, and the emperor saw that he was indeed old, so he made him a minister.
Just brought over a respected old minister, who retired before he could get close, how could these two princes endure it?
When I returned home, I was smashed.
"It must be the prince!" The second prince was aggrieved, he was aggrieved in his heart, and he couldn't help tears, "He has looked at me since he was a child!" ”
As soon as Hongyuan wanted to appease a few words, the second prince jumped up, grabbed Hongyuan's clothes, and asked with wide eyes, "Is there a problem with wine?" ”
"Second prince, don't worry, you can't find us." Hongyuan swears.
The second prince was angry, "The Chen family was destroyed, and the father did not pursue it, isn't it because he secretly smuggled salt and iron?" He sneered, "The crown prince is really powerful, and he has become a hero when he pushes the responsibility like this." It's really pitiful that Chen Guogong did his best, and in the end he ended up hiding all his bows! ”
Hongyuan agreed at the right time: "What His Highness said is true! ”
"Humph!" The second prince snorted.
……
"Click!" The lock was pried open by Lin Xi, and after entering the door, Lin Xi hung the lock on the lock hole again.
Lin Xi swaggered into the imperial dining room and sat down to feast on an eight-treasure chicken.
Don't say it, the things on Zhang Jingye's old man are really practical, this **** can even open the lock of the imperial pharmacy!
She had time to think about what the Emperor meant by what he said today.
"What a 'mirror stops the water to be hearty'!" The emperor said.
The emperor's words are like a fart, who doesn't know that this sentence is said well?
Lin Xi irritably ripped off a chicken leg and munched on it.
It's fucking aggrieved. Just because she ran away with the prince, she was scolded by the emperor, punished and banned from the exam, and was directly transferred to Mingluan Hall to serve the emperor's wife.
She is a woman, and she doesn't go to the men's toilet, how does she know who is a eunuch and who is not!
It's really inflammatory!
A high-end compound talent like her, who understands traditional Chinese medicine, knows organs, knows ancient martial arts, is erudite and talented, extraordinary, has a high talent, and is rich and rich, and is sent to be a little palace maid, which is really a waste of talent!
Dog Emperor!
Lin Xi gritted his teeth and decided to "thank" the emperor of Nanzhao.
I can't sleep in the middle of the night, and I'm afraid Lin Xi is the only one who is busy planning his life while eating chicken.
Sneaking into the imperial dining room and having to get rid of a group of troublesome followers, Lin Xi is really tired!
Halfway through the chicken, Lin Xi suddenly heard the sound of the door lock swaying. She carried the chicken, grabbed the pepper in her hand quickly, and the figure flashed at the moment when the person outside the door took a step and spilled a handful of pepper in his hand, forcing it back. There was a flexible tilt, Lin Xi flew out half of the Eight Treasure Chicken, and then rolled into the grass and disappeared with a jump.
She is already more agile than a ghost, and the darkness of the night makes it even more difficult to track.
Xuan Mingci sat on the eaves, looking at Baili Suchen and laughing.
"Great place for you!" Baili Suchen calmly dusted off his sleeves.
A fine light flashed in Xuan Mingci's eyes, and he said meaningfully: "After all the years, you may thank me for choosing a good place." ”
Baili Suchen didn't want to listen to his nerves, so he picked out the meaning: "Medicine." ”
Xuan Ming smiled, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and threw it over.
There are some words that are clear in the heart and stop at the mouth, for example, the concepts of poison and medicine are different.
However, whether it is honey or arsenic, only you know.
It's a deal between smart people.
He exchanged a bottle of medicine for his stay in Zhongdu for a short time.
This poison is called September Frost, and the only person in the world can make it - Poison Sect Xuan Ming.
……
"I haven't been here for a few days, but the long street in Zhongdu is still so lively." Looking at the bustling market, I couldn't help but sigh.
Because of his outstanding appearance and temperament, Chen Shizi attracted the attention of ladies at that station - ladies are of no age. Whispers rose in all directions, and the two of them were almost overwhelmed by their coquettish eyes.
"The prince has lived in Shu for a long time, and the old slave remembers that the last time the prince came to visit was eleven years ago." Father-in-law Xu's complexion did not change.
Father-in-law Xu is an old man in the palace, strong in martial arts, and upright.
The prince won the emperor's chess, so he could walk around this market, and his father-in-law Xu accompanied him in plain clothes to ensure safety.
"Shizi, where do you want to go?" Xu Shengyuan asked.
Baili Suchen smiled, as warm as jade, "Elegant place." ”
Xu Shengyuan said: "If you want to talk about elegance, the water and clouds should be second to none." ”
Baili Suchen made a "please" gesture.
Before they reached Shuiyunjian, the two saw one person in a hurry, panicked, and seemed to be fleeing.
As the man walked by, both of them smelled a strong smell of pepper.
Baili Suchen is used to idle clouds and wild cranes, and he is not very nosy, but he can't help frowning when he smells this rich pepper smell.
Although I escaped the pepper and eight-treasure chicken from the chicken thief last night, I was contaminated with the smell, which was extremely difficult to remove.
It is said that Xu Shengyuan is upright, and when he sees such a thief-like person, he must be arrested and tortured.
"You, stop! What to watch? Let's just talk about you! Xu Shengyuan reprimanded.
The thief ran away when he saw that the general situation was not good, but where could he run past the martial arts master, he was pressed to the ground in three times and two times, and a group of people caught up behind him, and when he saw the enemy being pressed to the ground, not only did he not come forward to mock and provoke, but walked away silently - really suspicious!
"Take it!" Xu Shengyuan roared domineeringly, and many black-clothed people fell from the sky and surrounded a group of people.
Open the thief's baggage, the baggage is pepper in the middle of the layer, and the bread in it is a large amount of wine mother.
He wanted to mask the smell of the wine mother with the smell of pepper, and if he hadn't acted in a hurry, he might have been able to get away with it.
This story tells us that if you don't have a strong psychological quality, you should stop being a thief.
Xu Shengyuan knew that this matter was related to the issue of moonshine and the country's taxation, and it should not be underestimated, so he bowed and apologized to Chen Shizi: "I'm afraid the old slave can't accompany his son to enjoy the elegance, Xiaoqizi!" ”
A plainclothes little eunuch with clear eyebrows walked out and saluted: "Shizi! Master! ”
Xu Shengyuan instructed: "Protect Chen Shizi." ”
"Yes!" Xiao Qizi swore to accept his fate, and then raised a bright smile, "Shizi, please!" ”
There is a scheme called fishing in troubled waters: take advantage of its chaos, benefit its weakness and have no owner. Follow, in order to feast on obscurity.
It seems that someone has muddied the waters.
Baili Suchen smiled gently.
