Chapter 66: From the Wolf's Mouth to the Tiger's Mouth
Li Xia listened to a few words, and his heart fell down, has he ever been so close to Ming Zhenbang in the capital mansion?
She didn't know much about the current Ministry of Rites Shangshu Ming Zhenbang.
Ming Zhenbang and the Jiang family are in-laws, and they are the earliest and most distinctive princelings. The matter of establishing a prince is his leader. In the spring of the seventeenth year of Zhiping, Ming Zhenbang ordered the main exam, and a month after the release of the list, Ming Zhenbang was exposed to fraud in Chunqiu.
That year, it happened that the emperor had a not so small illness in the middle of the year......
On the impeachment excerpt of the imperial history, it is said that he has ill intentions and has the intention of rebellion.
The Ming family was raided and wiped out, and when she entered the palace, the Ming family had already withered away.
In this fraud case, the prince and his family suffered heavy losses, and even the prince who was involved was almost abolished, and the prince's family went from prosperity to decline and then to destruction, this case was a turning point......
This year is the thirteenth year of peace, and there are still a few years before the seventeenth year, but it is very close.
Li Xia pursed her lips tightly.
The uncle asked the fifth brother and Mr. Qin to consider it, that is to say, Li Wenlin followed, and the attitude in the capital mansion is also the attitude of the uncle, at least the uncle does not object...... The uncle has already stood in the princelings and attached himself to Ming Shangshu......
Li Xia only felt a chill in her back, she didn't know that her uncle had once stood in the prince's party.
In the previous life, the uncle was implicated and degraded by his father, and now look at it again, it is not a curse, but a blessing......
She and her fifth brother tried their best to let the family avoid the first day of junior high school, but they ushered in the fifteenth!
“…… Asha? Asha! Your face is wrong, what's wrong? Li Wenshan was talking, and when he saw Li Xia's pale face, his heart suddenly lifted.
"It's fine." Li Xia wanted to laugh but couldn't, "You said yours, I'll listen." ”
"Are you alright?" Li Wenshan stood up, turned around, and looked at Li Xia carefully, Li Xia stretched out his hand and pushed him to sit down, "It's okay, you go on, I'll listen." ”
"It's okay, Mr. said, the queen mother and the prince have lived in Hangzhou for nearly a year, and an official who asked to see them has not been summoned, the eldest young master of the Ming family must ask to meet, and he must know that he can't see him, so he brought the third brother over, the third brother came, I always want to see him, and I can't say it if I don't see it."
When the third brother saw me, of course the young master Ming also saw me, and the gentleman said that the young master would probably ask me something, or ask me to give the prince a few words. ”
Li Wenshan sat down again, and then said Mr. Qin's words.
"You're right, the third is here, you can't see it." Li Xia replied casually.
Uncle is cautious, and even thinks too much, after the uncle was demoted in the past, he almost had nothing to do with Ming Zhenbang's fraud and rebellion, that is to say, the uncle stood in line, but it was not deep, at least not yet......
“…… Axia, what kind of person is the third brother? I don't know what he will ask, if he asks me to say something, I don't think I can talk, I don't know if the third brother will be annoyed with me. Li Wenshan was a little worried, at this time, he felt quite good about the capital and the Li family.
"Third brother......" Li Xia retracted his thoughts, "The second uncle is a talented person, and the third brother is just as sparse as the second uncle, but fortunately, the ambition is not as big as the second uncle." You don't have to worry if he's annoyed or not, he asked......"
Li Xia stopped, he had to pull the uncle back from the princelings and from Ming Zhenbang! She can't let their family leave the wolf's mouth with their front feet and enter the tiger's mouth with their back feet!
"Fifth brother, the eldest son of the Ming family will arrive in Hangzhou City this evening, you will leave for your return early tomorrow morning, go to Lu Yi first, tell him about the third brother coming with the eldest son of the Ming family, and ask him, if the third brother asks about the prince, what should you say."
Li Wenshan was stunned for a moment, and then agreed: "Okay, that gentleman is ...... over there."
"You don't have to tell him about this, fifth brother, ...... tomorrow" Li Xia said to his lips and swallowed back.
I can't tell the fifth brother about these things, after all, the fifth brother is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is not a scheming person, he can hide his words, but he can't do it quietly. The few people around him, at least Lu Yi and Jin Zhuoyan, especially Jin Zhuoyan, are all human spirits among human spirits, if they see something, it will be a catastrophe......
"What's wrong?" Li Wenshan waited for a while, and when he saw that Li Xia didn't go on, he asked.
"It's nothing, I just want to tell you, first, Uncle is good to us, because Uncle is still a person who understands and knows the truth of both prosperity and loss. Second, the uncle took a fancy to you in the eyes of King Qin, and he had a bright future in the future, and he didn't really love you as a son or nephew.
Second, other people in Bofu don't understand as well as Uncle and Uncle Niang, and Mrs. Zhong's words are also true for one or two points, and there are indeed many people in Nafu who can't wipe out our family with a slap, especially my grandfather. ”
"Grandfather?" Li Wenshan's eyes widened.
Li Xia hummed with a gloomy face.
Li Wenshan was stunned for a long time, and suddenly sighed, "Alas, Daddy is so pitiful." ”
………………
Just after the beginning of the afternoon, Lu Yi entered the courtyard of King Qin, passed through the Hanging Flower Gate, and saw a small tea table under the porch in front of the main house.
Jin Cunyan is okay, King Qin looks like his whole person is caged in a layer of gloom.
Seeing Lu Yi come in, King Qin leaned back in his chair a little lazily, looked at Lu Yi and asked, "Didn't you say that you would go to see Guan Quan's military training for a day?" ”
"It's a trivial matter, I think it's better to hurry up and say hello to the prince." Lu Yi stood three or four steps away from King Qin, sat sideways on the gooseneck chair under the verandah, and talked to King Qin at eye level.
Jin Zhuoyan poured a cup of tea, got up and handed it to Lu Yi.
"Just now Li Wenshan found me and said that Li Wenlin, the third elder of Yongning Bofu, came to Hangzhou City with Ming Shaoping, and sent a message to see him, Li Wenshan asked me, if Li Wenlin asked about the prince, how should he answer." Lu Yi took the tea, looked at King Qin, and reported straightforwardly.
King Qin's eyebrows raised when he heard this, and the corners of Jin Clumsy's mouth pulled down and again, "Sure enough, it's a ghost." ”
"Li Xuezhang has always been cautious...... The establishment of the crown prince is indeed a good thing that can strengthen courage. King Qin said sarcastically, "Where is Ming Shaoping now?" ”
"In two hours, you will be able to enter Hangzhou City. Luo Shuaisi had already prepared a dinner party in Qingfeng Building to pick them up and wash the dust. ”
"Well, let's go, let's go to Jilong Temple to eat vegetarian food." King Qin stood up, shook off the folding fan, and while walking out, he instructed Lu Yi, who was following closely, "Give them a message." Also, call Li Wu. ”
………………
On the post road forty or fifty miles outside Hangzhou, a convoy is trotting all the way towards Hangzhou City.
