Concubine Li has been in the palace for five years and has always been deeply favored by the emperor. Ninety percent of this favor is naturally because of her father, King Huaiyang. Also because of Concubine Li's favor, King Huaiyang has also been serving the court wholeheartedly over the years. Reciprocity and mutual use, the emperor used him to serve the imperial court, and he used the emperor's vast own lintel. Everyone is thinking like this, and they can't be selfish.

Concubine Li's temperament is also smooth, although she has always been favored, she has not been arrogant, she has always served the emperor and the queen mother obediently, and she is also good friends with the queen.

Concubine Li Guifei walked quietly to the imperial case with lotus steps, and Ying Ying gave a salute: "The concubine sees the emperor." ”

The emperor raised his head and said kindly: "The concubine is here?" ”

Concubine Li said gently: "Yes, the concubine has something to discuss with the emperor." ”

"What?" The emperor took a sip of the steaming tea on the table and asked.

Concubine Li said: "It's about the draft, the concubines have discussed this matter with the queen mother and the queen, and it has always been a triennial draft before, but now everyone knows a little about the situation in the court, and the emperor has some important courtiers in his heart?" It is better to send their daughters or sisters to the palace to serve the emperor together. Seeing that the situation is tense, the court must be employing people, and the best way to make these people loyal is to let their daughters enter the palace and be enthroned, and bathe in the emperor's grace together. One is intended to contain them, and the other is that if their daughters are favored, they will also be able to serve the court more wholeheartedly.

Even though the emperor was tired of such a thing in his heart, but he had to do it in front of him, and when he was about to agree, his eyes touched the wood carving in his hand, and his heart moved, he thought for a while, and said: "Let me think about this matter, there is always another way besides this method." ”

Concubine Li is naturally happy, there are already many women in the harem, if there are a few more young and beautiful women competing with her, I am afraid that she will not see the emperor once in a month. She said with a smile: "The emperor is wise, and there will definitely be a way." ”

"Well, you can step back first, I still have a piece to watch." The Emperor nodded slightly.

Concubine Li retreated.

Li Yuan said softly: "Your Majesty, the daughter of Lord Chen, the head of the household, is twenty-eight years old, I heard that she has all the piano arts, calligraphy and painting, and her temperament is gentle and virtuous, so it is better to ......."

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said lightly: "I will discuss this matter later." ”

Li Yuan hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, the slave has said more." ”

Li Yuan stood beside him with his hands down, quietly staring at the sunlight coming in through the window, it had been a long time, the emperor had never been happy, all these years, he followed the emperor, only to know that the emperor was really the most bitter errand in the world. But as long as they, who are slaves, can share in it, they will not bother him. It's a pity that whether it's a state affair or a harem affair, there are always things that make people troublesome. The queen's management of the harem over the years can be regarded as stable, and there are many concubines in the palace who are virtuous and sensible people, but there are always a few people who love to make trouble, and it is impossible to quarrel for favor. Because of the relationship between their father and brother, the emperor can only punish lightly. It's really embarrassing, helpless, and embarrassing.

He noticed the wood carving in the emperor's hand and asked softly, "What is the emperor's hand?" Look exquisite. ”

The emperor's eyebrows relaxed, a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly: "It was given to me by a woman, called Slow Sheep and Sheep." ”

"Woman? Is it Miss Liu? Li Yuandao.

The emperor stared at the wood carving, but did not speak.

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment and said: "Miss Liu is the sister of the master of the martial arts alliance, if the emperor can include her in the harem and make a concubine, then the lord of the Liu League will be used by the imperial court, and the power behind him is very huge." ”

The emperor was still silent, but there was a ripple in his heart. When I first saw Liu Yiyi, I was shocked, although I liked it, but I also had a moment of heartbeat. Liu Yiyi was also affectionate and righteous to him, and although he left sadly in the end, he did not have any resentment. It's just that the more she has affection for him, the more he can't bear to use her. It is easy to admit her into the palace, and it is not difficult to get the help of her brother, but he has been avoiding this method, and now the woman in the harem has made him frustrated, and he doesn't want to destroy the little beauty that Liu Yiyi has left with him.

Liu Yuan saw that he was silent, and he didn't dare to say anything more, so he only sighed slightly and withdrew.

The first month of the year slid by silently, Liu Zezhong sent people to spy on Mao Yuan many times, but they all failed to return, he knew that there must be something under this house, and he also determined that Mao Leyan was indeed a hermit. He sent people to investigate whether there were such capable people in the martial arts, but they found nothing.

On this day, King Qing suddenly came to Mao Leyan, and said with his eyebrows: "Did you ask this king to investigate the shopkeeper of Dongling Village before?" ”

"Yes," Mao Leyan was basking in the sun in the yard, and was immediately startled when he heard the words.

"He's dead." Qingwang Road.

Mao Leyan was stunned, "Dead? How did he die? ”

"He was poisoned, and today the people of Shuntianfu came to inform him that he died at home, his wife and son were also missing, and all the belongings of the family were gone." Qingwang Road.

Mao Leyan asked suspiciously: "Is it a burglary?" But you don't need to poison it, huh? It couldn't be his wife who poisoned him and ran away with her son in her arms, right? ”

"Now the matter is still under investigation, this king saw that you mentioned this person in the past, and this king also told Shuntianfu about it, so Shuntianfu Yin paid attention to it, and immediately reported this incident." King Qing said.

"I'll go to Shuncheonfu." Mao Leyan turned around and told Xiao Shu to go in and get the cloak, but King Qing stopped: "Don't go now, wait two days and then go." Tomorrow, when the new government Yin takes office, there are many things to sort out. ”

"Xinfu Yin?"

"Yes, Lord Fu Yin has been transferred, do you know who the new Fu Yin is?" King Qing asked.

"Who?" Mao Leyan was slightly shocked in his heart, looking at his expression, this matter seemed a little weird.

"King Jing!" King Qing said slowly.

"Him?" Mao Leyan was shocked, "Was it assigned by the emperor?" ”

"No, he asked for it." King Jing pushed her, then sat on the chair she was sitting on, and said with some annoyance: "I don't know what his intentions are, he is a warrior who gallops on the battlefield, why does he want to stay in Beijing as a Beijing official?" ”

"You mean you want him to return to the battlefield?" Mao Leyan was also in a mess in her heart, she was annoyed by Liu Zezhong for a while, and she rarely went to King Jing's side, so she didn't know about this matter before. She secretly thought to herself, could it be that he is desperate, but he is desperate and shouldn't be a Shuntian Mansion Yin? This is just the yamen of the Jingshi public security, and even looks at the face of the criminal department in everything, he King Jing is a high-minded and arrogant person, how can he be willing to submit to others?

"Naturally, I don't want to, but I'm worried that he has other plans." King Qing said worriedly.

Mao Leyan was silent, squeezed together with him and sat down, thinking of the death of the shopkeeper of Dongling Village, although he was happy, but the matter was not clear in the end, if it was really his wife Cao Wanzhen who was killed, it must be to arrest her. can also give Liu Hong a bad breath, so that she will not be wronged for so long and her soul will be restless.

In the evening, Mao Leyan led Xiao Shu to Jingwang's mansion, but who expected that King Jing's absence made Mao Leyan pounce. Mao Leyan muttered: "The most inconvenient thing in this era is that there is no telephone, and communication basically depends on walking, howling this?" ”

Xiao Shu asked suspiciously, "Miss, what are you muttering?" ”

Mao Leyan said: "I said that I knew he was not here, so I wouldn't come." ”

"Miss can't come, how do you know that the prince is not here?" Xiao Shu said with a smile.

"Well, indeed." Mao Leyan was a little depressed, thinking of the convenient and fast era, I really miss it. In ancient times, the food and air may have been good, but when I am used to that era, I always feel uncomfortable and unable to substitute for it when I am free now.

She asked Xiao Shu to go back first, she was going to go to the underworld and ask her grandfather to understand clearly.

went to the underworld, but Mao Xiaofang Tianshi was not there, waited for a while, and asked the ghost, who said that he had been busy with affairs recently, and he was afraid that he would not come back for a while.

She had to leave first, she wandered around the underworld for a while, went out of the door of life and death, and walked back on Huangquan Road.

After she left, Mao Xiaofang flew down and said dangerously: "It's not easy to deal with people who are too smart." ”

The ghost asked curiously, "Master Heaven, she is your granddaughter, why are you so afraid?" ”

Mao Xiaofang sat on the Taishi's chair with a leisurely attitude, "You don't understand, it's scary for her to get angry." ”

"What a scary method?" A female voice suddenly came from the main hall, and Mao Leyan's body fell suddenly, standing solemnly in front of Mao Xiaofang.

Mao Xiaofang was taken aback, "Aren't you leaving?" ”

"Can't you come back if you're gone?" Mao Leyan was expressionless, walked straight up to him, jumped on the chair next to him, and looked at him with sharp eyes.

Mao Xiaofang chuckled twice, "Naturally, you can come back, but I have some things that I have to do right away, do you have anything important?" If not, I'll come back next time. ”

Mao Leyan stretched out his hand to stop him, "What do you say?"

Mao Xiaofang's body was in the air, and he was about to fly out, Mao Leyan's figure was faster than him, and he stopped in front of him, "Dead ghost, where to run?" ”

"I'm your grandfather!" Mao Xiaofang raised his face and brought out his grandfather's shelf.

"I'm still your grandson." Mao Leyan snorted: "Say, what is there to hide from me?" ”

"No, what's hiding from you?" Mao Xiaofang's eyes flickered slightly.

"If I don't say anything, I'll forcibly break into the space-time gate and go back to modern times." Mao Leyan made intimidating words.

Mao Xiaofang hurriedly waved his hand: "Are you crazy?" You don't have the ability to travel through time and space, and if you force your way through the door of time and space, you will be distorted by time and space. ”

"It's better than here." Mao Leyan pulled him back into the chair and sat down, stepped on the chair with one foot, and asked awe-inspiringly, "Hurry up, did you design me to come here?" ”

Mao Xiaofang smiled bitterly: "Don't be like this, someone is watching!" ”

"What are you afraid of? Do you have the audacity to design me, and you dare not admit it? Mao Leyan said viciously.

Mao Xiaofang waved his hand to let the ghost go down, and the ghost covered his mouth and retreated.

"Pull your dog's legs away." Mao Xiaofang teased him when he saw it, and patted Mao Leyan's calf with a straight expression.

"Say!" Mao Leyan stood up straight and said fiercely.

Mao Xiaofang shrank and snorted: "Actually, I can't think I designed you, I have asked so many people, and they all say that you are talented, intelligent, and understand medical skills, strong spells, and high adaptability, you are the best person to stop this war." ”

Mao Leyan gasped, "Fuck, it's really designed!" ”

"Granddaughter, you swear!" Mao Xiaofang said weakly.

"I fucking want to beat you up." Mao Leyan grabbed his collar angrily, let go again, and stomped his feet in anger!
