182, turn against each other and become enemies
As soon as the empress fell ill, the princes and grandsons should take turns to serve the sick, but Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong said that the empress needed to recuperate, and she didn't want too many people to disturb her, so she directly stopped the sick people outside the Hanliang Palace.
Li Xian was afraid of this mother and was reluctant to get too close to her, and Wei Xiuer still had a grudge against Li Chongrun, and she didn't want to see the empress, so the prince couple were the two most calm at the moment.
Of course, there are also people who don't care about Erzhang's obstruction, such as Princess Taiping, Erzhang was the first to be introduced to the empress, and now no one dares to take Princess Taiping seriously. Another example is Li Longji, he has always gone directly to see the empress whenever he wants to, and he doesn't care how Erzhang stops him, but the empress never gets angry when she sees him, even if Erzhang doesn't like him, he can't do anything about him.
Originally, under the empress's years of management and training, the system of handling political affairs in the Inner Hongwen Hall has been very mature, and the internal division of labor restricts each other, and no one dares to cheat easily. However, since the empress fell ill, the two were not allowed to enter the Hanliang Hall even the female officials of the Hongwen Pavilion, saying that there were too many outsiders coming and going, which was not conducive to the empress's recovery.
This incident completely angered the courtiers, especially those who were originally loyal to Li Tang, and the statement that the crown prince was in charge of the country was brought up again, but Li Xian repeatedly refused to refuse, so he temporarily gave up.
You'an knew that sooner or later it would come. In fact, the empress has always had a wish, which is to personally select the most perfect heir, and then personally hand over this huge empire to that person. She wanted to leave a record in history of the good beginnings and the ends, abdicate peacefully, or die a righteous death, and future emperors will follow her straightened system and keep the empire running like a huge institution. Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, I am afraid that this wish may not be realized.
In an eventful season, she didn't want to show up too much, and most of the time she just accompanied Wei Xiu'er. But she went out very occasionally once, but she still met Pei Shizhen.
To be exact, it wasn't that she met, but Pei Shizhen had been waiting for her, and finally caught the opportunity for her to come out alone.
Pei Shizhen directly put her in the corner: "The news I passed on to you has come in handy, isn't it time to pay you the reward you gave me?" ”
You'an was forced by him to retreat, but looked up at him: "Pei Jun, what kind of girl do you want, you don't have it, you keep holding on to me, why do you want to?" Originally, I was very grateful to you, both in the past and now, you have helped me several times. But if you dwell on it like this, it will only make me feel sick. ”
When Pei Shizhen heard this, his eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, and the whole person was almost crazy: "I don't appreciate your gratitude, you don't need to know what I'm for, you can't give anything else, now I want you to accompany me for one night, you have to agree if you agree, and you have to agree if you don't agree." ”
No matter how You'an couldn't figure out how a character like a fox fairy in the past could be distorted to such a point. She pushed away Pei Shizhen's hand: "If you have the guts, then you can directly use force, but if you want me to be willing, it is absolutely impossible." ”
She didn't look at it anymore, and she didn't care what Pei Shizhen's expression was at this time, so she left directly. Pei Shizhen was behind her and said in a deep voice: "Don't say so much, if you anger me, I won't indulge you like before." ”
You'an only thought he was threatening and ignored it. But soon, she knew that Pei Shizhen was not just talking this time, he was real.
One day, Wei Xiu'er said that she wanted to eat a very common dim sum in Fangling, and the chef in the palace dining room had not done well, so You'an said that she would watch it for her, after all, with the respect of the crown princess, it was not very decent to go to the dining room in person in order to eat a mouthful.
The dim sum was ready, and on the way back, You'an met Pei Shizhen again, and he said a few words of gossip unhurriedly, but he didn't have the tone of the last persecution. You'an didn't want to entangle with him more, so she copied a path back, and walked quickly with her steps, but she went back from the dining room a little earlier than usual.
As soon as she stepped into the door of the prince's bedroom, she felt that something was wrong, Li Xian was not in the palace to grant documents to envoys from other countries on behalf of the empress on this day, but there was a voice of a man talking to Wei Xiu'er in the dormitory, and the content of the conversation was also very private and bold.
It happened that the man seemed to be leaving, and You'an was afraid of being embarrassed by running into him in person, so he hurriedly found a place to hide. From where she was hiding, she could just see who was walking out of the dormitory.
She thought about many possibilities, but when she saw that the person who came out was Wu Sansi, You'an still felt that it was beyond her imagination.
Wei Xiu'er personally sent Wu Sansi out, and very ambiguously combed his clothes and hair accessories for him at the door of the dormitory, but it was Hui'an, who came with Wu Sansi, who looked as restrained as an outsider.
