Zhu Qizhen saw that Jian Huaizhen had this reprimand, so he respectfully opened his mouth to Jian Huaizhen and said: "The eldest princess has this reprimand, I should keep it in mind and never forget it." ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Zhu Qizhen was in such a situation, and he felt very relieved in his heart, so he spoke to Zhu Qizhen: "Since the emperor has such a word, it shows that he still has something to pay attention to in his heart, as long as he always has compassion, the world will always be the emperor's world." ”

Zhu Qizhen heard Jian Huaizhen's words, thought about it for a while, and then said to Jian Huaizhen with a deep salute: "Thank you for the teachings of the eldest princess, I understand the deep meaning of the eldest princess's words in my heart." ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that Zhu Qizhen had this attitude, and he knew it in his heart.

After Jian Huaizhen and Zhu Qizhen finished eating, they didn't mention it when they returned to Wan'an Palace.

This Zhu Qizhen is annoyed by the fact that Xu Youzhen, Cao Jixiang, and Shi Heng are competing for favor. On the other side, Xu Youzhen also noticed that Zhu Qizhen no longer trusted him as much as he used to. So he invited Li Xian to discuss.

Li Xian had just walked into the room, and Xu Youzhen had already stepped forward and said repeatedly: "Master Li, you are really good to come, and I am about to discuss something with you below." ”

Li Xian smiled slightly, and saluted: "Lord Xu has something to order, so why be polite." ”

Xu Youzhen said: "Lord Li is really polite, please sit down." ”

So Li Xian sat down, and Xu Youzhen instructed his subordinates to bring tea.

Li Xian saw that Xu Youzhen wanted to speak and stopped, so he smiled and said: "If Lord Xu has anything to do, just say it, Li Xian is willing to share his worries and relieve his labor." ”

Xu Youzhen's face changed to a smile, and she sighed and said: "Lord Li doesn't know, in the past few days, I have entered the palace to meet the emperor, and I found that the emperor has treated me much worse than before. ”

"Oh, what's going on." Li Xian pretended to be surprised and asked.

Xu Youzhen shook her head, and said quite puzzled: "I just can't figure it out, so I invited Master Li here, and I want Lord Li to take a closer look." ”

Li Xian hurriedly said: "Li Xian thanks Lord Xu for his love, I will do my best to share the worries of Lord Xu, the emperor no longer trusts the adult, someone must have said bad things about the adult in front of the emperor." ”

Xu Youzhen spat on the tea, nodded and said: "What Master Li said is reasonable, and I have such thoughts in my heart, but I don't know who can join me in front of the emperor, so that the emperor no longer trusts me." In the past, Cao Jixiang and Shi Heng had separated the emperor and me many times, but they were unsuccessful, but this time it was very different from the past. ”

Li Xian thought for a while before he said slowly: "I don't think Lord Xu has many enemies in the court, and there are even fewer who are not in harmony with Lord Xu and can say the right thing in front of the emperor. Li Xian thought about it, this matter must be related to Cao Jixiang or Shi Heng, I don't know what the adults think? ”

Xu Youzhen thought for a long time before saying: "What Lord Li said is extremely true, but this time I don't know what method they used to make the emperor trust me as much as usual." ”

Li Xian lowered his head and pondered, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Since this is the case, let Li Xian help Master Xu inquire about this matter." ”

Xu Youzhen was overjoyed when she heard this: "This will bother Lord Li." ”

Li Xian smiled slightly and said: "Lord Xu doesn't have to be polite, Li Xian can have today, and thanks to Lord Xu's care, this time it is just a matter of repaying the favor." ”

Xu Youzhen was very satisfied when she heard Li Xian say this, and after the two exchanged pleasantries, Li Xian got up and said goodbye.

The next day, Xu Youzhen had just returned from the morning court, and heard the next person come to report: "Lord Qiyu, Lord Li Xian Li asks to see you." ”

When Xu Youzhen heard that Li Xian was coming, she hurriedly said, "Please, please." ”

In his heart, he wondered if what Li Xian inquired about yesterday had a result.

Just thinking about it, Li Xian had already walked in.

After Li Xian came in, he wanted Xu Youzhen to salute.

Xu Youzhen said: "Lord Li doesn't have to be polite. ”

The two sat down as usual.

Xu Youzhen wanted to know what happened to Li Xian yesterday, but she was embarrassed to speak.

Li Xian seemed to have already spied on Xu Youzhen's intentions, and he looked around at no one, so he whispered: "Lord Xu asked the lower officials to inquire about the news yesterday, and the lower officials have already inquired about it. ”

Xu Youzhen was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "Who said bad things in front of the emperor, which made the emperor have a problem with him." ”

Li Xian sighed and said, "Sure enough, as we expected, that person is none other than Cao Jixiang." ”

"Ah, it's Cao Jixiang, the emperor may not have that trust in Cao Jixiang, Cao Jixiang played to the emperor, and the emperor actually believed it, could it be that he has any evidence in his hand?"

Xu Youzhen asked Li Xian, while thinking in his heart whether there was any evidence in Cao Jixiang's hands, but he couldn't think of it after thinking about it.

Li Xian saw that Xu Youzhen had doubts, so he said slowly: "If it wasn't for the lower officials to inquire, but they couldn't inquire, it turned out that Cao Jixiang did use means this time." ”

"Oh." Xu Youzhen said and asked, "I don't know what tricks Cao Jixiang has played this time?" ”

Li Xian sighed and said: "Cao Jixiang's move is unexpected, he actually bought off the emperor's most trusted eunuch Sun Xiang and his grandfather. ”

"It was Sun Xiangyong who said bad things about me in front of the emperor." Xu Youzhen couldn't help but be a little angry, he and Sun Xiang had always used well water instead of river water, but they didn't expect Sun Xiang to help Cao Jixiang do things, which was really too deceitful.

Li Xian persuaded him repeatedly: "Lord Xu, don't be impatient, Li Xian heard that it was not Gonggong Sun who said bad things about Lord Xu in the emperor, but Cao Jixiang bought Gonggong Sun, recorded the conversation between Lord Xu and the emperor, and informed Cao Jixiang. Cao Jixiang deliberately mentioned it before the emperor intentionally or unintentionally, and the emperor naturally thought that you Lord Xu were not a trustworthy person when he found out. ”

"What a vicious way to kill people with a knife." Xu Youzhen patted the table and stood up angrily and said: "What a vicious Cao Jixiang and Sun Xiangyong, Cao Jixiang gave him the above benefits, and he actually wants to go against Lord Ben, isn't he just a mere eunuch?" ”

Li Xian saw that Xu Youzhen was already angry, so he only drank tea on the side and did not say a word.

When Xu Youzhen's anger subsided a little, Li Xian casually mentioned on the side: "Lord Xu, don't underestimate the influence of Grandpa Sun in front of the emperor, Grandpa Sun has accompanied the emperor in Wara for ten years, and the emperor's trust in him is not comparable to you and me, nor is it comparable to Cao Jixiang Shiheng and others." ”

Xu Youzhen calmed down and savored Li Xian's words, and felt that this was indeed the case, although Zhu Qizhen had never appointed Sun Xiang as a high-ranking official, he had always treated him well.

Thinking of this, Xu Youzhen couldn't help but feel frustrated on her face, and said indignantly: "Is there nothing I can do about Cao Jixiang, do you want the emperor to continue to distrust me?" ”

"That's not exactly what I said." Li Xian seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Xu Youzhen: "I don't know if Lord Xu will listen to Li Xian's words. ”

Xu Youzhen saw that Li Xian was calm and relaxed, and seemed to have a plan in his heart, so he hurriedly said, "Please also ask Master Li for guidance." ”

Li Xian smiled and said, "Actually, Li Xian doesn't have any insight, what I want is to use the way of others to govern the body." ”

Xu Youzhen was slightly stunned, thought for a while, laughed and said, "Master Li really has a good plan. ”

It turned out that Li Xian meant that Xu Youzhen also bought Sun Xiangyong, and he could also let Sun Xiang use it to say bad things about Cao Jixiang in front of the emperor, so wouldn't it be beneficial for Xu Youzhen to buy it.

What's more, since Sun Xiangyong can be bought with money, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

Li Xian saw that Xu Youzhen was happy, and seemed to be a little carried away, so he reminded on the side: "Cao Jixiang can buy Sun Xiangyong, of course, it is related to his use of money to bribe, and Sun Xiangyong and Stimulation are eunuchs, and it is inevitable that there will be a joint relationship with each other, and it is reasonable for Sun Xiangyong to help Cao Jixiang." According to what I saw below, if an adult wants to buy Sun Xiang and use Sun Gonggong, he must be able to afford to spend the silver. ”

"Hmm." Xu Youzhen nodded and said, "The old man understands, understands." ”

Li Xian smiled slightly and said no more.

Xu Youzhen thanked Li Xian for his kindness, and chatted with him for a while before sending him out of the house.

After Xu Youzhen talked to Li Xian, he decided to buy Sun Xiangyong.

He specially sent someone to find out how much benefit Cao Jixiang gave Sun Xiang, but he never found out.

In desperation, I had to turn to find out what Sun Xiang liked, and the investigator came back and reported that Sun Xiang didn't have anything else that he didn't particularly like, one liked the house, and he liked antiques.

Xu Youzhen laughed when he heard this: "Since Sun Xiangyong has something he likes, then he is not afraid." ”

After three days of preparation, after the early dynasty, Xu Youzhen specially went to ask Sun Xiang to leave the palace.

He didn't go long ago, but he ran into Li Xian.

"Master Li, why are you here, do you want to enter the palace to meet the emperor?" Xu Youzhen was a little puzzled.

Li Xian shook his head, stroked his beard and said, "No, no, Li Xian has been waiting here for a while. ”

"Oh, I wonder what is going on with Master Li and the others?" Xu Youzhen said.

Xu Youzhen is very grateful to Li Xian for helping him wholeheartedly, and has completely regarded Li Xian as his own in his heart, so he knows everything about him and says everything.

Li Xian stepped forward, pulled Xu Youzhen aside, looked around at no one, and asked quietly, "I don't know if Lord Xu wants to enter the palace to invite Grandpa Sun." ”

Xu Youzhen nodded and said, "Exactly, it is according to the strategy given by Lord Li that I want to enter the palace to see Lord Li now." ”

Li Xian let out a long sigh and said, "Lord Xu didn't do something right. ”

"That's not right." Xu Youzhen looked surprised and asked, "I don't know why Master Li said this?" ”

Because Li Xian has always been very good at refuting Xu Youzhen, he suddenly said that Xu Youzhen was wrong, which made Xu Youzhen very surprised.

Li Xian said quietly: "Last time, Cao Jixiang bought Sun Xiangyong and was not known by outsiders, that is because Cao Jixiang is also a eunuch, and it is very convenient to enter and exit the palace, but Lord Xu is the chief assistant of the cabinet, and entering and leaving the palace naturally leaves many clues for others." ”

"What Master Li means is ......."

"Li Xian means that Lord Xu personally went into the palace to invite Grandpa Sun, I'm afraid it would be too ostentatious, Grandpa Sun has not been invited, and everyone knows the news, and when Cao Jixiang knows the news, he will first visit Lord Xu in front of the emperor, and Lord Xu's plan will not be wasted."

When Xu Youzhen heard this, she suddenly felt cold sweat, and what Li Xian said was reasonable.

He settled down and asked, "Master Li, then what do you say about this matter, this official wants to personally invite Sun Gonggong is just to show the sincerity of this official, and now that this official can't go, then who should I send?" ”

Li Xian thought for a long time before slowly saying, "This matter is indeed a bit difficult. ”

Xu Youzhen heard Li Xian say that he was embarrassed, so he said: "Brother Li, you have to help no matter what this time, you have to help me think of a way." ”

Li Xian thought for a while and said, "Lord Xu, please be calm and don't be impatient, Lord Xu treats Li Xian well on weekdays, since Lord Xu is embarrassed now, then Li Xian will go on behalf of Lord Xu." ”

Xu Youzhen was overjoyed when she heard this, and clapped her hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Li, thank you, Lord Li." ”

Xu Youzhen said it several times in a row, and it can be seen that she is very happy in her heart.

Li Xian had a look of embarrassment on his face, and said with a sigh: "Although Li Xian went to help Lord Xu, he didn't dare to guarantee Lord Xu Youzhen if he could invite him." Father-in-law Sun is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and there are not a few people who usually talk to him, Li Xian is just an unknown person, and it is really difficult to say whether he can invite Grandpa Sun. ”

Xu Youzhen thought for a while and said, "Whether Lord Li can help the official invite Grandpa Sun, the official is very grateful to Master Li." If we really don't move, we will think of other ways, and we will definitely be able to think of a way. ”

"Okay, since Lord Xu said so, then Li Xian will go and help Lord Xu do this now."

After speaking, Li Xian bowed deeply to Xu Youzhen, turned around and walked towards the palace.

Xu Youzhen looked at Li Xian's back, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, if she could buy Sun Xiang to slander Cao Jixiang and Shi Heng in front of the emperor, then this court would be Xu Youzhen's world in the future. ”

After Xu Youzhen walked away, Li Xian did not go to the emperor's bedroom to find Sun Xiangyong, but walked straight towards Wan'an Palace.

As soon as he walked to the gate of Wan'an Palace, another palace maid walked out, and the palace maid was dressed in a white palace dress, looking slim and generous.

This is Jian Huaizhen's newly acquired palace maids.

Zero was originally an orphan with no father and mother, who was abducted and sold several times, and was inadvertently rescued by Jian Huaizhen and entered the palace as a palace maid.

Although she had just come to Wan'an Palace for a short time, she was loyal to Jian Huaizhen.

There are no details in Wan'an Palace, and Jian Huaizhen is handed over to Scattered to deal with.

Seeing Li Xian, Ling Luo stepped forward to make a palace salute, and said with a smile: "Lord Li is here, our eldest princess is already waiting." ”

Li Xian smiled and said, "There is Miss Lao leading the way." ”

So Scatter was left behind, Li Xian followed behind, and slowly walked into the Wan'an Palace.

Sure enough, Jian Huaizhen was already seated in the main hall, and she had been waiting for Li Xian for a long time.

Li Xian stepped forward, saluted, and said: "Weichen has seen the eldest princess, the princess Chitose Chitose Chitose. ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said, "Master Li doesn't have to be polite, you can move a chair and invite Master Li to sit down." ”

"Yes." Lingluo agreed, so he went to move a chair with a yellow pear purple gauze hat and asked Li Xian to sit down.

Li Xian leaned slightly and sat down, and said, "Thank you, Princess Huang." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said nothing, just waiting for Li Xian to tell the progress of the matter.

Sure enough, Li Xian paused slightly, and then said: "Li Xian has already done what the eldest princess ordered, and now Xu Youzhen is really already thinking of a way to deal with Cao Jixiang." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled, and his face showed a calm expression: "The so-called two tigers must have one injury when they fight, Xu Youzhen, Cao Jixiang, and Shi Heng's fight, and in the end, one of them must be damaged, and then Lord Yu Qian's revenge can be avenged half, and the country will also remove the second minister, and the rest will be much easier to deal with." ”

Li Xian owed slightly and said: "What the eldest princess said is very true, I have already told Cao Jixiang in front of Xu Youzhen about Cao Jixiang's bribery of Sun Xiang and his father-in-law, Xu Youzhen knew that the consequences would be to spend more silver taels to buy Grandpa Sun, but he was stopped by the lower official, and the lower official came to ask the eldest princess to show it." ”

Jian Huaizhen sighed and said: "Lord Li is running for the country and avenging the sage, his feelings are pitiful, and his loyalty can shake the heavens and the earth. ”

Li Xian said repeatedly: "The lower officials don't dare. ”

Jian Huaizhen then said: "Xu Youzhen asked Sun Xiang to use it, let this palace handle it." Sun Xiangyong is loyal to the emperor and extremely cautious, Xu Youzhen is to have something to postpone, and he may not go out of the palace, and this matter needs the help of the palace. As for the next things, I have to worry about it, and Master Li has to worry about it. ”

Li Xian hurriedly saluted: "The minister doesn't dare, it is the duty of the minister to be loyal to the country." ”

The two talked about some other things a little, and Li Xian didn't dare to stay in the Wan'an Palace for too long, so he took his leave, and after Li Xian left the palace, he didn't mention it when he went home.

Jian Huaizhen said to Lingluo: "Lingluo, you go to the emperor's palace to invite Sun Xiang and Sun Gonggong, and say that the palace summoned him and asked about something."

"Yes." Scattered nodded in agreement, and walked out of the palace gate to ask Sun Xiang to use it.

Not long after, Zero brought Sun Xiangyong back.

Sun Xiangyong saw Jian Huaizhen and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The old slave knocked to see the eldest princess, the princess is a thousand years old. ”

Jian Huaizhen shook his hand and said, "Grandpa Sun is not an outsider, please sit down and talk." ”

Sun Xiang paused with his face, shook his hand again and again, and said: "The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave doesn't dare, what does the eldest princess need to ask the old slave, just ask the old slave." ”

Sun Xiangyong has followed Zhu Qizhen for many years, and he has not shared Zhu Qizhen's hardships in Wara, and he can be said to be loyal to Zhu Qizhen.

He didn't need to panic when he saw Jian Huaizhen, but he only recently accepted a bribe from Cao Jixiang to help Cao Jixiang fight Xu Youzhen, and naturally there was a ghost in his heart.

Now that he heard Jian Huaizhen so polite, he panicked.

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said: "Grandpa Sun doesn't need to worry too much, Grandpa Sun is a person close to the emperor, taking care of the emperor for the palace, there is no merit and hard work." It is also reasonable for this palace to give a seat. ”

Sun Xiangyong heard Jian Huaizhen say this, and his heart settled down this time, so he sat down and asked: "I don't know if the eldest princess summoned the old slave here, what is the matter, please ask the eldest princess to ask, the old slave must know everything, and say everything." ”
