[Chapter 16: Revisiting the Courtyard Palace] (2)
The winter wind blows, the branches in the jungle rattle, and the fallen leaves on the ground have long been dried by the air, and then blown by the wind, scattered into ashes.
There were different sounds all around, but between Xiao Jiangyuan and Li Longji, it was very quiet.
Li Longji stretched out his hand to help Xiao Jiangyuan: "To have such a loyal servant as you, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." ”
"In any case, the slave can have a master like Ah Lang, and she will live up to this life, which has nothing to do with the Great Sage and Queen of Heaven." Xiao Jiangyuan smiled as before, "Ah Lang has his own charm of Ah Lang, but it's not time yet. If it is possible, the slave and maid will always follow Ah Lang, and witness Ah Lang step by step to the throne, reign over the world, and be born by the common people. Didn't Ah Lang say, you love this Datang, and you want to push Datang to the Tang Dynasty?
"Why Ah Lang loves Datang so much, the slave doesn't understand, but the slave knows that if Ah Lang wants to push Datang to the Tang Dynasty, he must first be able to ascend the throne. If you want to ascend the throne, you must stabilize the position of the prince, if you want to stabilize the position of the prince, Ah Lang must know what to do and what not to do, it must be much clearer than the slave. Which is more important between the Tang Dynasty and the slave maid, Ah Lang should also have something in his heart, so don't hesitate, believe in the slave and maid. ”
“…… I believe in you. Li Longji said, "It's just that if according to what you say, whether I do it or not, you may die, then why can't I do it?" ”
Xiao Jiangyuan smiled slightly: "Ah Lang ......"
"I'll wait three days." Li Longji interrupted, "I'll only wait three days. During these three days, I will listen to you whatever happens, but if you are still alive after three days, and Aya does nothing, I will do as I say. ”
This seems to be his biggest concession, but Xiao Jiangyuan knows that it is not too difficult for Li Longji to let Li Dan have no time to pay attention to himself for three days. She didn't want to refute it anymore, this was the biggest estrangement and obstacle between her and him, her mind was incomprehensible, her words were not speculative, and it was useless to say more.
The heat on his lips was still faintly there, and the temperature that should have dissipated became hot at this moment.
She had just stepped towards him, but she had to retreat again.
"Thank you, Alang." After Xiao Jiangyuan finished speaking, he withdrew from the small jungle and walked towards Qianniuwei.
Although Li Longye was chatting with Qianniuwei, he was always paying attention to the movements of Xiao Jiangyuan and the third brother. When he saw them turn into the small jungle, his eyes couldn't help but be fixed. Qianniu guards have been behaving in a proper manner to avoid suspicion, standing with their backs to the prince, seeing that Li Longye's eyes were different, they were just about to turn their heads to look, but they were stopped by Li Longye.
Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan gradually approaching, Li Longye's strange feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger. He didn't feel very happy, and he didn't know why he was unhappy, he wanted to ask her very much, what did the third brother want to say to her just now, he actually wanted to hide in the small jungle, but the Qianniu guards were standing aside, he couldn't open this mouth at all, and now was not the time to ask about this kind of thing - Ah Yuan was taken away by them this time, but he was afraid that there would be more luck and less luck.
Seeing that Xiao Jiangyuan came over, but the prince did not, the Qianniu guards looked at each other for a moment, not understanding what His Royal Highness the prince meant.
Xiao Jiangyuan smiled and said: "After His Royal Highness and the slave and maid handed over the matter, he went back to the East Palace directly, and before leaving, he also said to the slave and maid that this is the order of the saint, although the holy will is unfathomable, but it must be for the good of the East Palace, and you Langjun can't help yourself, the slave and maid must be honest, do not disobey the saint, and do not cause trouble to the Langjun." ”
The leader of Qianniuwei hurriedly led the brothers to bow in the direction of the East Palace: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!" ”
When Xiao Jiangyuan followed Qian Niuwei to the Yeting Palace, Li Longye always followed. Irritability and worry filled his heart, leaving him emotionally unstable. He wanted to give Ah Yuan a ride in the best condition, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't laugh and didn't know what to say.
Xiao Jiangyuan noticed Li Longye's abnormality early on, and after thinking about it for a while, he roughly understood why the sage suddenly let her live in the Yeting Palace, he must have learned about this matter from Qian Niuwei. He wanted to tell himself, but because Qianniuwei was by his side, he couldn't open his mouth?
Then I'll help him myself, anyway, she also wants to know some specific situations: "King Xue has always been talkative, but now he is so silent, but he has just talked too much to Lang Jun, and he is tired?" What did they say that was so interesting that King Xue had to exert so much effort? ”
"This ......" Li Longye wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said after thinking about it, "Ah Yuan is in it after all, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, I have a relationship with her, I have to tell her." ”
The leader of Qianniuwei said leisurely in front of him: "King Xue and we also had an exchange, and since this matter has been told to King Xue, who does King Xue want to talk to, it has nothing to do with us. ”
"You brothers, I'm done!" Li Longye approached Xiao Jiangyuan as he spoke, lowered his voice, and told Xiao Jiangyuan everything he heard.
At the same time, in the main hall of the East Palace, Wu Su'er, a palace person, was also telling Li Longji and Wang Jun all the things he had heard.
"Today's court, Song Xianggong played the sage, saying that it was all the gold, the accumulation of bones, the existence of the right way between heaven and earth, only the truth can put an end to all rumors. The sage asked what to do, and Song Xianggong suggested that Xiao Neishou be verified to be in his right body. The sage hesitated for a while before saying, in more than a month it will be the first Yuan Day, this is still the first Yuan Day after the sage ascended the throne, it is very significant, there are many things to prepare, after all, there are priorities, this matter can be put on hold for a while, in order to prevent changes, he will first detain Xiao Neishi, and wait for a few days to be busy. ”
Song Jing? He's really ...... Li Longji has no evaluation of him. That being the case, why didn't Aya let Xiao Jiangyuan take Xiao Jiangyuan directly to the Liangyi Hall for a physical examination, but instead went too far, detained her first, and sent personal soldiers like Qianniuwei to escort her in person?
The detention of Xiao Jiangyuan was what Ayah meant, and he didn't mention the Yeting Palace at that time, so it seems that this is really what his aunt meant. Yeting Palace is just a place of detention, and the reason why my aunt chose there is completely dependent on Xiao Jiangyuan, such as her unknown childhood, she was brought out by Shangguan Wan'er.
It's just that why didn't my aunt let Aya directly verify Xiao Jiangyuan's identity, could it be that on the day when Xiao Jiangyuan replayed the long-lived girl, Cui Yu really returned in vain?
If this is the case, my aunt is not sure whether Xiao Jiangyuan is a woman like Aya, and the matter of verifying her body will not be able to be taken seriously, so how can she take the initiative to ask for Xiao Jiangyuan to be sent to Yeting Palace? Could it be that my aunt wants to verify it herself, if the women are happy, if it is a man, she can also do everything on the surface, and then do something behind her back to kill people and blame others?
With her aunt's strategy, she must do everything she can, and she will never allow the worst outcome in the plan, and she will definitely think carefully about what she should do once Xiao Jiangyuan turns out to be a man. She can only choose to extinguish her mouth and blame him, but how can it be so easy to blame him? Song Jing brought up this matter today, but I am afraid that everyone is unexpected, she has no time to prepare, and if she wants to succeed in blaming him, she must be extremely meticulous, otherwise Yao Yuanchong, Song Jing and others are blind?
Therefore, my aunt must have determined Xiao Jiangyuan's identity, but she had other purposes, so she chose to lock Xiao Jiangyuan in the court first. This purpose should have something to do with him...... Ah, my aunt wants to lure the snake out of the hole, as long as he acts, whether he saves or kills Xiao Jiangyuan, he can't escape the palm of her hand, and when the time comes, the crime of losing the prince's virtue will be confirmed.
But my aunt didn't expect that he would save her in another way.
Li Longji smiled with a smile on his forehead for the rest of his life, and continued to ask: "This is done in response to the rumor that Ah Yuan is a woman, so what if the prince is not a concubine or a long-term prince, what should I do, Song Xianggong can say it?" ”
Wu Su'er bowed her head respectfully and said, "I said." Song Xianggong means that His Royal Highness is indeed not a descendant or a long, as for whether to be established, as early as when the saint was asked to establish the prince, the ministers had already given the answer. ”
That's pretty much it...... Li Longji secretly said in his heart, since Aya wanted to verify whether Xiao Jiangyuan was a man or a woman, then she was safe for the time being. But she is indeed a woman, this is a fact that cannot be changed, once it is really verified, the consequences are unimaginable.
Li Longji became more and more determined in his thoughts. If Xiao Jiangyuan is safe and sound, only his method can save her, even if this method has to break her wings, maybe she will hate him for this, and he will never be able to get her again, and he will not hesitate to do so. He didn't force what kind of mind she wanted to treat him, he just wanted her to be safe and sound.
But since he promised her to wait for three days, he would not break his promise. Just in case, he will keep Aya and his aunt busy for the past three days, and they will have no time to take care of other things. On Aya's side, there is Yao Yuanchong outside, Concubine A-Niang inside, and on her aunt's side, a cousin Xue Chong is simple enough. With these three days in mind, he could think carefully about whether there was a better way for them to have both.
Seeing that Wu Su'er was still standing with his head hanging in the hall, and his back was straight, with a bit of Xiao Jiangyuan's taste, Li Longji's eyes were fixed, and he suddenly thought of something: "What you just said is very detailed, as if you have seen it with your own eyes." ”
Wu Su'er said: "The slave maid just walked around more, asked more, pieced together the information she got and sorted it out a little, and it was what she looked like." ”
Li Longji nodded appreciatively: "This is what your family Liangyuan taught you?" ”
"Exactly."
Li Longji chuckled lightly and said to Wang Jun: "Yueniang is a good means. ”
Wang Jun pursed her lips and smiled embarrassedly: "I don't have this ability." ”
Li Longji asked Wu Su'er again: "You can inquire so much, it must have taken a lot of time, how could you return to the East Palace with me back and forth?" ”
Wu Xu'er said: "Your Highness can only see Princess Jinxian and Princess Yuzhen today, naturally I don't know that the slave maid was sent away by Liangyuan not long after she came out of Linzhao Palace. ”
Li Longji thought about it for a while, but he couldn't remember that there was one less person in his team since then. Seeing Wu Su'er's helplessness, Li Longji cleared his throat in embarrassment: "This time is almost over, but how does your family Liangyuan know, I want you to inquire, and then tell me everything I heard directly?" ”
