The Li Mansion was silent, and a layer of silver light was paved on the bluestone slab's road, and the golden cinnamon embellished in the dense leaves and branches quietly bloomed, and the courtyard was suddenly full of fragrance.

"Miss Bilan......" The mother-in-law guarding the small door heard the footsteps and hurriedly got up to open the door for Bilan, who was carrying a bamboo basket.

"Thank you mom for being accommodating." Bi Lan took out two taels of silver and stuffed it to her mother-in-law.

Every moonlit night, it is the mother-in-law's business to open the door to Bilan.

At first, the doorman read that Miss Bilan specially made rouge for Mrs. Li, and she was better than a distinguished guest if she was not a distinguished guest, and refused to accept her silver after a few pushes. Later, she learned this to Guan's mother, and Guan's mother said that she had stuffed straw in her head, and with this remark, she dared to accept it boldly.

The mother-in-law neatly stuffed the silver into her sleeve and whispered, "The dew is heavy in the second half of the night tonight, especially the area next door to the master's study." Queqiao, who served the master's pen and ink, often complained to us that the water there was heavy, and the books were the most susceptible to moisture, and people couldn't lift their energy after living for a long time. ”

"The study is a heavy place, I can't go, right?"

The mother-in-law patted her chest and said: "The girl is worried, she only picks flowers in the courtyard, and Queqiao and those little guys will never dare to embarrass you." ”

Bi Lan promised to go back, but was pulled by her mother-in-law.

"What will the girl do when she goes back, I won't tell you, old woman."

"Mom misunderstood, I'll go back and seal a few taels of silver for Queqiao and them......"

The mother-in-law dragged Bi Lan out, "How dare those people accept your money?" Moreover, the small ornaments in the study on weekdays are not pleasing to the master, so they take them out as pawns, and the income is quite large. ”

That's to look down on her little bit of silver.

"Then I'll go, Mom will leave a door for me, and go sleep by myself."

The mother-in-law was overjoyed, she had money to take and sleep well, and nodded like pounding garlic: "Eh, girl, let's go, just remember to buckle the latch when you come back." ”

There was a pot of spring water boiling on the small stove, and there was already a faint smell of tea in the room.

There was a cup of tea on each side of the sour branch wood coffee table, looking at the wisps of tea smoke, Li Chongshan finally couldn't help but speak: "Qin Hai, you have something to say!" ”

Qin Hai raised his head with a face full of surprise: "I'm fine, isn't it you who has something to do?" ”

It wasn't him Qin Hai who came to the door in the middle of the night to disturb him, but now he was talking nonsense with his eyes open, as if I had invited him. Li Chongshan raised his hand to carry the teapot and paused suddenly.

Qin Hai on the other side also noticed it, shook his head and sighed: "Li Chongshan, you are really old, is it stupid to carry a teapot empty-handed." ”

"You're stupid." Hurriedly grabbed the white cloth on the side and wrapped the handle, poured the tea in the cup clean, and filled it with water angrily. "What do you think about Princess Baozhen's expedition to the northwest?"

Qin Hai pretended to be stupid and said: "What do you think, the emperor doesn't have this plan in his heart, just relying on my mouth is like a river, is it useful?" ”

"You're so secretive! Do you know that when the emperor asked me to hand over the military power of the military department in the northwest to the princess, I was almost scared to death, and I wondered if the emperor doubted me......"

Qin Hai handed over the clean teacup, "Add some." ”

As soon as Li Chongshan remembered the panic in front of Emperor Cheng Kang at that time, he became angry in his heart and turned his head to ignore him. "Pour it yourself!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll drop your best purple clay pot?" Qin Hai threatened with a half-smile and half-anger.

The purple clay pot was specially made by his son by a famous craftsman, Li Chongshan twitched a few times at the corner of his eyes, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words: "You are amazing." ”

Let Qin Hai have the upper hand, Li Chongshan no longer held it: "Shi Zhangbi asked Zhang Ji of the household department to put a place and begged me to come here, but he is not my person, and it is not good for me to intercede for him in front of the emperor...... You, help. ”

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "It's really difficult for you to say a word." It's not even convenient for you to come forward in this matter, can I? ”

Li Chongshan's eyes widened, "Don't you often associate with King Qi, I heard that King Qi has sent you a lot of good things, and the meaning of wanting to win over is self-evident, you are pretending to be stupid with me?" ”

"It's true that King Qi wants to win me over, but the Shangshu of the Ministry of Household and Ministry of Industry has also accepted his gifts."

King Qi cast a wide net to catch more fish, and finally brought the capable ones under his command, and then found a way to send those who fish in troubled waters.

Qin Hai and Li Chongshan sighed at the same time.

"Recommend someone to you," Qin Hai's eyes suddenly lit up, "King Qi's path won't work, isn't there a King of Han." He has a writer named Xu Yuan under him, who is a classmate of your son. ”

Li Chongshan was silent.

Qin Hai kicked him, "The older you get, the more you think, you are sixty, you can protect your son for a while, but you can't protect it for a lifetime." When you asked him to take the test for fame, you should have thought that there would be such a day in the future. ”

Li Chongshan said without yin or yang: "I'm not like you who have ten sons and then do your filial piety, it doesn't matter if you don't have any of them...... I can't do such a desperate thing to send my son to the battlefield in a hurry. ”

Qin Hai has long been accustomed to Li Chongshan's words from time to time.

Sending Qin Can to the northwest, is he willing to be a father? It was not because of Emperor Cheng Kang's sentence "Baozhen's castration is weak" that he ruthlessly recommended his own son to the emperor, and said that he would seek a bright future for his son.

Only he knew that the emperor was guarding against them, the former ministers of the previous emperor.

"Chongshan, it's the fifteenth year of the show."

Xu because Shi Zhangbi evoked the memories of the two, Li Chongshan nodded, and then sighed: "Yes, every word that the prince called us to the couch and instructed is still ringing in my ears." ”

Fifteen years have passed, and everything is the same as the prince expected before his death: the emperor has no merit and no fault, the country will not be invaded by foreign tribes for twenty years, and the prince will become his own son after being crowned king...... Now, only one last thing remains. ”

Li Chongshan's voice sank: "King Chengping was born timid, although he has grinded out his temperament over the years, he is still far from overthrowing the emperor and ascending the throne. ”

"If King Chengping is difficult to achieve, it is not impossible to let Princess Baozhen succeed to the throne, but it is just a bit difficult." Qin Hai groaned.

Li Chongshan slapped the table and stood up: "Qin Hai, are you crazy?" ”

"I'm not crazy." Qin Hai then stood up, "King Chengping is the blood of the crown prince, Princess Baozhen is also the blood of the prince, and she can be civil and martial, why can't she become the empress?" ”

This idea was too bold, and Li Chongshan circled around the table twice, still unable to agree with Qin Hai's opinion.

"No, no, no, if Princess Baozhen ascends the throne, then only Ruan Miaoling will inherit the throne, will the Great Song Dynasty have two empresses?"

"If there is one, there are two, and women are not as good as men? Master Li's thinking is a little superficial. ”

In the room, you say a word, I say a word, and there are constant arguments.

The osmanthus stamens under the jade steps fell delicately to the ground under the cold moon, and hit Ruan Miaoling's heart with a "snap".
