Cui Min stirred up the fire, knowing that if he stayed any longer, Li Ziqi would be angry, and patted the dirty thing that didn't exist on his hand: "I'll go and grab some medicine for Eighteen Niang." ”

After saying that, as if someone was chasing him, he ran away like a gust of wind.

Li Ziqi looked left and right, and said to Eighteen Niang: "I really didn't mean to lie to you. Don't listen to Ah Min's nonsense, I just cultivated a little power by myself. There are a lot of people among them that you know. Most of them are not in Chang'an, and when I have the opportunity, I will take you to meet them. ”

Eighteen Niang frowned, "Don't say anything else, what's going on with this Cui Min?" He is the younger brother of Queen Cui, why don't you help your sister and nephew, but help you? Now that the crown prince has fallen, the fourth prince is the only concubine, and his status is precious, so he may not be able to overpower the second prince. ”

"Ah Min and his sister are not close. Queen Cui used to be raised by her mother-in-law, she was arrogant and wanted to get ahead. is indifferent to his own aunt and Ah Min. Me and Ah Min are like Eighteen Niang and Wang Jiu. ”

Eighteen Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Speaking of which, we should also be going to the Lu Guogong Mansion recently."

Li Ziqi's expression was grim, and he nodded seriously, "When you were asleep, you received a message from the Lu Guogong Mansion, asking you to go tonight." If you wake up a little later, I'll be gone. ”

This is his first step to win over Li Tang's old department, and Cheng Zhijie is Li Tang's old man. He is very loyal, but he is also a flexible and flexible person, and he is one of the few Tang generals who is still in a high position today.

It's just that his second son is still Princess Qinghe.

Eighteen Niang drank some hot soup and felt that she was fine. Together with Li Ziqi, he took Cui Min's carriage and went to the Lu Guogong Mansion.

When passing through the Zhenping Palace, Eighteen Niang couldn't help but lift the curtain and take a look, only to see that above the vermilion lacquer gate, high lanterns were hanging, waving in the wind.

After getting out of the carriage, the head of Lu Guogong's mansion was already waiting at the door, and he led Eighteen Niang and Li Ziqi straight to Lu Guogong's study from a small corner door.

Li Ziqi and Eighteen Niang walked in to take a look, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, it turned out that Cheng Zhijie was sitting on it, holding a military book in his hand and reading.

Seeing Li Ziqi coming in, he couldn't help but circle around him, clenched his fists, and muttered, "The nose and mouth are a bit similar." But he has a woolen head and blue eyes. ”

Li Ziqi and Eighteen Niang glanced at each other, and they both breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that Cheng Zhijie already knew, since he didn't poke out, it was very likely that he would be on their side.

But Duchess Lu Guo began to wipe away her tears, "You have suffered in your childhood." I said how come there is such a ruthless father, you are only twelve years old, and he threw you into the Black Feather Guard. Poor child, how old is twelve, and my child still wets the bed. ”

Li Ziqi made a big salute to the two, "Uncle, uncle." Although the two of you already know, the child period still has to say that the child period is Li Tang's orphan, and now he wants to avenge my revenge, and he hopes that his uncle and aunt can help me! ”

Cheng Zhijie pondered for a moment and did not speak. just kept letting Li Zi salute.

"I am a first-class Duke of Lu in Dachu, and I have a heavy army. My three sons are all famous, and they are all famous and noble, if we don't rebel, we can be prosperous and rich for several generations, what do you have? Why should I let Lao Cheng drag his family and send him to death with you? I'm not Shen Ze, I fell for Li Er's demon. ”

Li Ziqi didn't expect Cheng Zhijie to say this, and his words were choked all of a sudden.

Mrs. Cheng slapped the table suddenly, "Old Cheng, what are you talking about?" Zhao Yi is ungrateful, I eat Da Chu's rice, and I have to live a few years less. ”

Cheng Zhijie was taken aback by her, smiled wryly, and scratched his head, "I just tested him, I didn't say no!" If I didn't fight back, wouldn't it be a fart if I persuaded Shen Ze back then? Madame, don't be angry, don't be angry. ”

Mrs. Cheng beckoned to Li Ziqi with satisfaction, "Good boy, get up, don't listen to your uncle's nonsense." My Ying Niang married Shen Ting, and you married eighteen, we are all a family. ”

Eighteen Niang smiled, picked up Li Ziqi, and said: "What my uncle said is very true, now with the power of Ziqi, we are undoubtedly like hitting a stone with an egg, but as a son of man, we can't let go of the sea of blood and revenge." It is also human nature for the uncle to plan for his children and grandchildren, and if you two do not disclose the identity of the child, my husband and wife are already grateful. ”

Cheng Zhijie glared at her and scolded: "You female doll, you have the same heart and eyes as Shen Ze, and you are extremely hypocritical for us martial artists. My old Cheng has already said that I will guard the soldiers that Li Tang gave me back then. Why do you speak to me? Your father is really bad, I said how did he tell his son to marry my daughter, he was waiting for me here. ”

Eighteen Niang grinned, this thing was really something her father Shen Ze could do.

She and Li Ziqi glanced at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. With Cheng Zhijie's support, then they are one step closer to revenge.

Because Cheng Zhijie secretly returned to Chang'an, he couldn't stay for a long time, so he quickly told Shen Ze about the future deployment of the four people to make a long story short.

After listening to this, Cheng Zhijie didn't speak for a long time, but looked at Eighteen Niang with palpitations, and asked seriously: "You can help me think about it, have I ever offended your father?" Like scolding him, or snatching his stuff or something? It's too poisonous, it's too poisonous...... He wants Zhao Yi to cut off his children and grandchildren! ”

Eighteen Niang was furious by him and shook her head.

"Uncle only needs to guard Yuanzhou, not lose his military power, and wait for the wolf smoke in Chang'an City. For other things, my father made his own arrangements. In addition, I also asked my uncle to give us a list of generals to see who else could be trusted. ”

Cheng Zhijie shook his head, "Today it is Shen Ze who knows my details, otherwise you will be too reckless, don't do this to others again, even Xu Changchun." ”

Eighteen Niang nodded, in fact, the next object on his and Li Zi's list was Xu Changchun.

Xu Wu is righteous, and Xu Dou will also be the daughter-in-law of the Cheng family, but Cheng Zhijie feels that Xu Changchun cannot be trusted, which is really ......

But since he said so, he naturally has his reasons.

Cheng Zhijie told Li Ziqi again, then looked at the sky outside the window, and said, "I want to rush back to Yuanzhou overnight." Go back quickly. ”

Mrs. Cheng took Eighteen Niang's hand and nodded at her, "If there is any news in the future, Eighteen can just tell me." Anyway, we women in the house, this kind of banquet is held twice in three days, and there are more opportunities to meet. Is this the Chrysanthemum Club of the Second Prince's Mansion? ”

The prince fell. The second prince is the eldest, and he suddenly became the most popular candidate for the crown prince. And Shen Qin's chrysanthemum club naturally became hard to find.
