After listening to his wife's words, Li Sijin was silent for a long time, and then said solemnly: "Wu Niang did the right thing. ”

Xin Zixuan's eyes lit up and she was a little surprised, but she didn't spit out a word. It is rare to hear Li Sijin praise someone, as far as she remembers, he is polite, talented, and very assertive about right and wrong. But he has the same temperament as Li Ge, that is, he is stuffy, and he hides all his feelings in his heart, which inexplicably makes people feel a little distant. If it weren't for the husband and wife over the years, she really couldn't figure out the whimsical omitted sentence behind Li Sijin's sentence.

"Since someone deliberately left someone somewhere, I think you will find it and send him back. Whether it is sent over openly or asked to pick it up, once it is related to Xingyong Bofu, it is impossible for the palace not to know. Li Sijin already has handsome facial features, and over the years in Liang Ping, he has worn out his immature and youthful scholarly anger, and he has become more elegant. Those who speak slowly and methodically, and those who are impatient will definitely be suffocated. "Today I heard news in the Hanlin Academy, it seems that the Holy Lord intends to appoint a prince."

"Who is it?" Xin Zixuan sat up straight, and her eyes followed Li Sijin's back.

"It's hard to say who it is, but I guess that the saint confined the two princes in the palace, presumably because he was afraid that there would be more ministers to instigate." Li Sijin paused, and looked at the small half of the candle flame on the candlestick, "I heard that the Holy Lord almost vomited blood in the court today, I'm afraid I can't bear it." ”

"Didn't you say you're sick?" Xin Zixuan also knew about the emperor's illness, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.

"I'm afraid it's not a disease." Li Sijin raised the corners of his mouth and smiled a little coldly, seeing Xin Zixuan inexplicably. "Whether it's Yan Kaizhi or the prince, it's inconvenient for the two princes to leave the palace, they are the backbone of the two factions, think about what will happen if you let people know that Yan Kaizhi is seriously injured."

One faction is in turmoil, and the other faction takes advantage of the weakness. Or one faction took the opportunity to make a noise, and the other faction took advantage of the situation to suppress. Either way, the imperial court is bound to set off a whole storm, and maybe it will also affect the pond fish.

"Sir, why didn't the Holy One make the second prince the crown prince from the beginning?" Shaohua's eyes fell on the teacup on the table, watching Mama Rong skillfully wash and scald the cup, and then brew a cup of hot tea with a bright color and pleasant aroma. I took the teacup, smelled the sweet aroma of tea, and couldn't wait to take a sip, but I was so hot that I spit out the stone. Mama Rong raised her eyebrows, glanced at her, and spit out a sentence leisurely. "The temperament of the five ladies is no longer restrained, what can we do next year."

Shaohua puffed out his face that was flushed by the heat, and said dissatisfiedly: "Mr. changed the topic again." ”

After returning from Jingyin Temple, Xin Zixuan repeatedly told her not to make a noise, but she held back her words and didn't dare to say it to others.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, Li Sijin asked someone to send her a set of Wenxuantang's latest four treasures of the study, which confused Shaohua. ran to ask Xin Zixuan, only to say that this was Li Sijin's affirmation of her approach, and even said that Li Sijin was good to Shaohua, and Xin Zixuan was often sent various calligraphy and paintings by Li Sijin. said that it was given to her as a gift, but in fact, Li Sijin liked it and bought it easily. So giving away what you like can be regarded as a way of expressing love.

Shaohua felt a little crying and laughing, how could anyone give a little lady the four treasures of the study, seeing that Si Mo had been showing envy for this set of four treasures of the study. Shaohua handed it to him, but Si Mo was very happy.

Although Li Sijin affirmed her approach, she wanted Li Sijin to inquire about Yan Kaizhi's news, but he swallowed Shaohua's question with the sentence "I thought Wu Niang was a smart person, but it was just a coincidence". Suddenly admired Xin Zixuan very much, how could she get along with Li Sijin for so long and be so harmonious, if she had to die of anger.

However, there is no intention to plant flowers and flowers, and there is no intention to plant willows and willows.

Just when Shaohua gave up asking about Yan Kaizhi from Li Sijin, and even doubted the friendship between them, Li Sinian inexplicably sent a box of incense powder from Ruxiang Pavilion. He also looked at Shaohua in surprise, and asked seriously: "What is the relationship between you and the San Lang of the Hou family in Anqing?" Why did he come and ask me what you like and ask me to give you this? The most frustrating thing was that Song Yu looked scared, gritted his teeth and refused to speak, and when he was forced to ask, he said that Shaohua knew it in his heart.

"Who is the San Lang of the Hou family in Anqing?" It was the first time Shaohua knew that he was so popular.

"It's Song Yu's dead fat man." Li Sinian looked out the window faintly.

Shaohua couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, although Song Yu was indeed stronger than Li Sinian, but he could not be regarded as fat. "It's nothing, I went out with my sister-in-law last time, and when I met him, I did a little favor." Shaohua took the incense powder and opened the box, only to find a small note sandwiched into the lid. After writing a few sentences in it, it was probably Yan Kaizhi who was embarrassed to come forward and asked him to give him a small gift to express his gratitude, and he would have the opportunity to come to the door to thank him again in the future.

Thinking that the incense powder was actually given by Yan Kaizhi, Shaohua felt like he had eaten honey, and put away the incense powder box like a baby.

Looking at Shaohua's happy face, Li Sinian expressed doubts: "What a small favor?" ”

"Second brother, how old am I, and how much ability do I have to help." Shaohua Road.

Li Sinian thought about it, Song Yu and Shaohua really didn't have much intersection, at most it was related to Yan Kaizhi. Thinking of Yan Kaizhi, he couldn't help but advise: "You have had less contact with them recently, and you may want to make a prince recently, so don't cause trouble." ”

Shaohua had heard Mama Rong say that the emperor actually wanted to establish Hongyi, so he was not very surprised by this, and even had some expectations. However, Li Sinian said that the public opinion was more than poured to Hongwen's side, which made Shaohua sweat. However, except for Li Sinian, Shaohua couldn't find anyone to ask about these things. After mentioning a few words to the Ling family, he was scolded for a lot of things, anyway, who became the emperor had nothing to do with them.

The weather is getting colder, the New Year is getting closer, the Ling family is starting to get busy, Li Xunzhuo has not returned home yet, the Ling family is a little busy with his feet on the ground, but fortunately, Wanhua can still help. So, he took leave with Mama Rong, asked several ladies to go back to the house, and took Wanhua with him.

When Shaohua secretly told Mama Rong about Li Sinian's words, Mama Rong glanced at her with an old god on the ground, "In the end, this world is long lived, and the things he decides, the people around him can still be influenced." Seeing that Shaohua still had to ask, Mama Rong frowned, "The fifth lady still has less speculation about the idea of Long Live Lord, I have been in the palace for so many years, and I don't dare to say that I know Long Live Lord." You care so much about the affairs of the second prince, don't you want to enter the palace? ”

Shaohua waved his hand busily and said in horror: "No, no, no, how could I want to go in." I'm just curious, why didn't the Holy Lord appoint the prince earlier, so that the people below wouldn't be so hard. ”

When Mama Rong heard Shaohua say this, she couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, the fifth lady doesn't want to enter the palace, otherwise I would have to persuade you to dispel your thoughts." "Even if it is a noble status like Hongwen, if you don't pay attention to it, it will be difficult to gain a foothold, let alone Shaohua." In fact, the Long Live Lord also has the difficulties of the Long Live Lord, how can we imagine it. If the fifth lady has a mind, it is better to practice needlework more, and play some knots, I see that the seventh lady's recent skills have improved again. ”

Shaohua is a little weak-hearted, she is not interested in needlework at all, she would rather write a few more posts and play a few more tunes every day.

"Don't be unhappy, if you are the right person, is it possible that you still have to come out to write and play the piano? In the end, these things are just idle things, you still have to live a down-to-earth life, you look at the three ladies' accounts, the seven ladies' needlework, you have to have someone who can handle it. "Mama Rong hates Shaohua because iron can't become steel.

"Is this what Mr. asks of the princess as well?" Shaohua was a little unhappy, Mama Rong didn't ask her so much at the beginning, otherwise she would have learned it a long time ago.

Mama Rong's eyes narrowed, "Can this be compared?" If you marry into the royal palace, I will not nag you about this. ”

When Shaohua heard this, he immediately stopped talking.

Counting the days, thinking that Li Xunzhuo would be back soon, Ling's mood also became happy. Bringing the congratulatory gifts from various places to Xuyuan, Liu shirked that he was not in good health and it was inconvenient to meet guests. Ling Shi was not verbose, and left a list for her to have time to see, and if she needed to add more, she would talk to her.

"A-Niang, Xingyongbo Mansion and Sanwang Mansion have sent congratulatory gifts, what can I do?" The pen in Wanhua's hand stopped in mid-air, his brows were all wrinkled, and Shaohua, who was temporarily called to do chores, couldn't help but raise his head, only to hear Wanhua say to himself: "No, our family doesn't have much contact with these two families, what is such a heavy courtesy." The Anqing Marquis Mansion is also gone, the Xingyong Bo Mansion is also sent, and the Three Kings' Mansion. ”

"Didn't they send it in previous years?" Shaohua asked cautiously.

Wanhua saw that Shaohua was rare and studious, so he told her seriously: "The Marquis of Anqing Mansion had it a few years ago, but then the old marquis was not very in charge, and the old man Song passed away, and the father and the second master of Song did not have the same temperament, so there was less contact. But even if these three princes' mansions are due to the relationship between the sister-in-law, this gift is also heavy, and there is also Xingyongbo's mansion. Wanhua suddenly stopped, and Shaohua held her breath and looked at her nervously.

"What's wrong with Uncle Xingyong's Mansion, maybe it's related to the eldest brother and the second brother, and the third sister is too much of a fuss." Shaohua pretended to be inadvertent.

Wanhua said angrily: "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you will welcome you with your intentions, and you have to find a reason." Our family has never had much friendship with them, and they came to give gifts for no reason, and they are not light, which is to let outsiders know, and I think we have some ulterior relationship with them. ”

"No, it's not a gift, maybe it's a grandfather's relationship." Shaohua frowned exaggeratedly, he didn't expect this gift to be so exquisite.

The Ling family was still worried, whether to give gifts to the clan family, listening to Wanhua's words, he also felt that what he said was reasonable, and hurriedly picked up the list, "Let's go, go to Taiheyuan and ask your grandfather." ”

This is a big or small matter, such a delicate time, such a delicate move. If one is not good, the responsibility is on the Ling family, she did not dare to underestimate it, and immediately went to ask Li Ge Lao.
