On this day, when he went to court, Xu Sheng came a little late, but as soon as he stepped into the main hall, he saw waves of people walking straight out.

No way? Although he was a little late, he shouldn't have delayed the time to go to court?

Just when Xu Sheng was puzzled, Zhang Ge Lao walked out with a calm face.

As soon as he saw Elder Zhang Ge, Xu Sheng hurriedly greeted him, "Elder Ge, are you going down so soon?" ”

Zhang Ge Lao's somewhat gray eyebrows were raised suddenly, and the beard on his chin also trembled, "Go down?" What's next? There is no upper court, where does the next court come from. ”

As soon as he heard Elder Zhang's words, Xu Sheng's brows suddenly wrinkled, "Elder Ge, what's going on?" ”

Elder Zhang Ge was about to open his mouth, when a voice interjected, "Elder Ge, last time you said that there was a cook in your house who did a particularly good job of Huai cuisine?" ”

Zhang Ge Lao frowned slightly, not understanding why he suddenly mentioned this.

It was Xu Sheng, who reacted almost immediately, and nodded happily, "That's right, that's right." There is a cook in the old house of the pavilion, and the dishes are particularly authentic. However, why did the prince suddenly think of eating Huai Cai? ”

The person who came was Lu Haichuan, the son of Lu Guogong. Since Lu Haiyang was carried into Lu Guogong's mansion half-dead, Lu Guogong was shocked and angry, he knew how much his son had drunk, and it was absolutely impossible for him to fall off a horse and hurt his head because he drank a few more wines, plus after Lu Haiyang was injured, there has been no news from the prince's side, it can be said that he is indifferent, shrewd as how he can not guess the relationship, the current sadness and anger are mixed with inexplicable fear, and he fell ill in a few days. And today, Lu Haichuan entered the palace to hand the excerpt to the emperor for his father Lu Guogong, but he didn't want to, but like all the ministers, they all pounced.

Lu Haichuan raised his hand at the two, sighed, and said, "Lord Xu doesn't know, my father didn't know what was wrong with him for the past two days and suddenly wanted to eat Huai Cai, and he found two Huai Cai masters in the house, but the dishes he cooked were not to his liking." ”

"What? Kokuko-sama's illness hasn't healed yet? Suddenly, another voice rang out behind him.

Xu Sheng raised his head, and saw that Chu Yanzhi, the crown prince of the dynasty, was wearing a dark purple court robe and walked over, he smiled and raised his hand to wave at Chu Yanzhi, "His Royal Highness the prince."

After pouring down Zhang Ge Lao, he didn't even raise his eyebrows and hair, and raised his hand casually, which can be regarded as a salute.

"What's wrong with Ge Lao? Who upset you? Chu Yanzhi glanced at Zhang Ge with a smile.

"The tired prince remembers his father, and his father's health is okay, but my brother Haiyang's health is not very good." Lu Haichuan took over with a smile.

Seeing Lu Haichuan mention Lu Haiyang, the smile on the corner of Chu Yanzhi's mouth deepened a little, he raised his eyebrows, and looked at Lu Haichuan with a smile, "When did the relationship between the prince and Haiyang become so close?" ”

No, Lu Haichuan listened to Chu Yanzhi's sarcastic words, not only was he not embarrassed, but he smiled, and said very indifferently to Chu Yanzhi's gaze, "Haiyang and I are brothers, and the broken bones are still connected to the tendons, how can those who talk about 'calling brothers and brothers' compare." ”

Chu Yan's eyes slammed into the water, and a coercion spread silently around him, but there was still a hint of a smile on his face, "It's really three days, you should be impressed!" ”

Seeing that this atmosphere was not quite right, Xu Sheng hurriedly interrupted, "Hey, Lu Guogong was sent by His Majesty to stay in Huaichuan for several years when he was young, maybe he misses the taste there now!" It's hard for the prince that you have a heart, since that's the case, Elder Ge, you can cut your love and let the cook go to the Guogong Mansion with the prince to cook a few Huai dishes for the grandfather. ”

Zhang Ge was too lazy to deal with Chu Yanzhi, so he nodded again and again, and the three of them took this opportunity to say goodbye to Chu Yanzhi, turned around and left the palace.

"Prince, do you think they have any premeditated plans?" Li Po quietly walked to Chu Yanzhi's side and whispered.

Since that Chinese New Year's Eve assassination, everyone around Chu Yanzhi who can be implicated has been implicated, and the Li family, which is attached to the Ping'an Bo Mansion, is naturally no exception, but Li Po is an exception. Chu Yanzhi saw that he seemed to be a little clever, so he kept him by his side and made an entourage. Li Po is also a person who can endure humiliation, but others can't accept it for a long time, so he responds, and there is still no trace of humiliation and unhappiness on his face.

Chu Yanzhi's side eyes swept Li Po, and the corners of his mouth hooked obliquely, "Do you think too highly of them?" ”

Now that the capital is under his control, just a few of them, what qualifications do they have to fight him! As long as Chu Mu dies, they will be like flies without a head, no matter how capable they are, they will not be able to turn over any storms!

"Is Your Highness still going to keep them?" Li Po said again.

Chu Yanzhi's sharp sword eyebrows raised suddenly, he didn't expect Li Po to say such a thing, it seems that he really has some courage.

"Although it is just a few headless flies, letting them buzz in the ears of this palace really makes this palace feel extremely annoying." Chu Yanzhi looked at Li Bai, and a cold smile crossed the corner of his lips.

"My subordinates understood." Li Po waved his hand towards Chu Yanzhi, and then bent down and retreated.

Chu Yanzhi smiled, looked up at the sun that had just risen from the mountains, and the smile on the corner of his lips suddenly became a little deep.

It's been a fantastic day.

Until he entered Zhang's mansion, Zhang Gelao's gloomy face had not eased.

Xu Sheng originally wanted to ask something, but looking at his look, he suddenly felt a little bottomless in his heart, and Lu Haichuan, who was on the side, said with a smile, "Is the elder still angry because of the emperor's affairs?" ”

Elder Zhang Ge glanced up at Xu Sheng, "Angry, how dare you be angry with the emperor as a courtier." ”

Seeing that Lu Haichuan picked his head, Xu Sheng hurriedly asked, "Elder Ge, Shizi, how did you come back?" Didn't you go to court today? ”

"What kind of court, I didn't even see anyone, and I still went to what court." The more Zhang Ge Lao spoke, the more angry he became, and he put the teacup on the table heavily, and his gray beard trembled with anger.

Although the emperor has been indulging in the Danfang recently, and he looks like he is lacking in interest in going to the court every day, he still appears in the court every day, but he doesn't come directly today, and says that all government affairs are handled by the prince.

"Elder Ge, I'm afraid that today's events will happen often in the future, and the younger generation thinks that you had better get used to it, if you are caught by the prince like today, the consequences will ...... You don't need to say it from juniors, you can understand. Lu Haichuan looked at Zhang Ge Lao and said word by word.

Listening to Lu Haichuan's words, Xu Sheng also nodded again and again, "Elder Ge, what the prince said is right, the current situation is a tense time, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin is not in Beijing, so it's better for us to be careful and forbearant." ”

"Humph! Then your consciousness is to let him do whatever he wants! Zhang Ge was so angry that he slapped the table and stood up.

"Elder Ge, if you have something to say, why are you still angry." When Xu Sheng saw it, he hurriedly got up and personally helped Zhang Ge Lao to sit down, "Isn't this situation unfavorable to us right now?" Besides, don't you know what kind of person the prince is? We can't be caught by him right now! ”

"What tricks do we have for him to catch, but he, what kind of Taoist priest entered the palace and stirred up the palace into a miasma, look at the emperor...... I think he just has ulterior motives! Elder Zhang Ge said indignantly.

"Pavilion Elder !" Seeing that Zhang Ge Lao was getting louder and louder the more he spoke, Xu Sheng hurriedly frowned and shouted Zhang Ge Lao vigorously.

Zhang Ge's eyes were white, "Why, he dares to do it and won't let me say it!" Anyway, I'm so old, I'm not afraid of what he will do to me! ”

"Pavilion Elder ......" Xu Sheng was impatient and shouted Pavilion Senior, but he didn't know how to say something next.

"Master Xu, forget it, if you want to talk about it, just say it! Anyway, even if we don't do anything, I'm afraid that he won't show mercy to our men. Lu Haichuan stroked the rim of the cup in his hand and said slowly.

Xu Sheng's face froze, and then he sighed, "Yes." ”

"His Royal Highness King Yan? What does he mean now? Zhang Ge Lao shook his gray beard and said with a displeased face.

King Yan is obviously in the capital, but he didn't make any moves, just guarding Princess Yan, and now that it is such a critical juncture, he should always come forward to preside over the overall situation!

"His Royal Highness King Yan means that it is best for Elder Ge and Lord Xu to 'have an accident' before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sends an attack." Lu Haichuan said slowly.

Zhang Ge Lao frowned, "What is this called?" ”

However, Xu Sheng understood the meaning of Chu Xi's words, "King Yan's move is not a way, it's just a ......" He looked at Lu Haichuan and said the doubts in his heart again, "It's just that if the prince makes up his mind to get rid of us, I'm afraid that this won't make him stop, right?" ”

"Lord Xu, if the prince didn't have to be distracted, he wouldn't let us go, but if there was something else?"

"What can it be?" Zhang Ge Lao wrinkled his eyebrows, and glared at Lu Haichuan with a displeased expression.

Obviously, he was already dissatisfied with King Yan's recent actions.

Lu Haichuan smiled, "In the northwest, there will soon be news that King Yan is alive......"

"That's true!" Zhang Ge's eyes lit up suddenly, and his expression could not hide his excitement.

Why did Zhang Ge Lao feel excited, even Xu Sheng couldn't help but stand up from his chair and said to Lu Haichuan excitedly, "Is His Royal Highness King Yan ready to act?" ”

Since Chu Xizhi's fraudulent death, they have been suppressed by the prince's party everywhere, and this year has been unbearable.

Lu Haichuan smiled and nodded, "It's true." ”

"I knew I was right! His Royal Highness King Yan can achieve great things! Zhang Ge Lao held his gray beard, and smiled so much that the folds on his face bloomed.

He was really afraid that His Royal Highness King Yan would only care about the beauties and ignore the country, and now he can finally put his mind at ease.

Compared with the smile on Zhang Ge's old face, Xu Sheng faintly felt uneasy in his heart, "Son, has His Royal Highness King Yan ever known that the crown prince seems to have pinched the handle of the number of chapters, plus the emperor is relying on the prince more and more, even if there is really news that King Yan is still alive, I am afraid that it will ...... Nor will it be recognized. ”

"Lord Xu is too worried, sometimes he doesn't need to admit it, as long as he ...... If there is enough strength, then yes and no, it is not so important. Lu Haichuan said with a light smile.
