Linxi, when such rumors entered Beijing, the little emperor's expression was a little surprised, and then he was angry, "Who brought such words in, isn't it in vain to provoke the relationship between me and my aunt." The person who reported this remark simply had ulterior motives. ”

"Holy Lord, such words are innumerable in Jiangbei. Regardless of whether the person who sent the message had a heart or not, if King Ning did not return to Beijing again, he was afraid that the people in Jiangbei would only know King Ning, not Emperor Jin. King Li persuaded that now Wangzhong is no longer in the end, and most of the government affairs north of the Li River are personally responsible for Li Shengxi, what is the difference between this and dividing the river?

Emperor Mingzhang was stunned for a moment, and then listened to King Li continue: "And this remark, sung from the north and south, it can be seen how widely spread in the north, among them, there is inevitably the indulgence of the eldest princess." ”

"Impossible." Li Xun interrupted King Li's words, and he continued: "Nine times out of ten, such rumors were deliberately released by someone with the intention of provoking the feelings of the saint and his aunt's aunt and nephew. ”

"If it wasn't the eldest princess who did it deliberately, then the court had repeatedly summoned her to return to Beijing before, but she did everything possible to refuse? Moreover, even if the eldest princess has never indulged, she has never restrained. If the restraint can still be spread so widely, then it can be seen that the eldest princess has a strong prestige in Jiangbei? With such a big tail, does the eldest princess want to divide one side? King Li retorted.

"How can it be regarded as a prevarication, my aunt does not return to Beijing, naturally because of my aunt, every time I submit a letter, I say it clearly, clearly, my aunt is planning for the world and the country, but she still has to be speculated by King Li for no reason to have the heart of separating one party? Where is the axiom? "Twenty-year-old Li Xun has long been different from that year, he is already smart, he was trained as a prince when he was young, and he has grown rapidly in the past two or three years, coupled with the natural political power left by Emperor Hongxing and Li Shengxi, today's Li Xun, when he was the king of Li, has not been half inferior.

King Li choked, and then continued: "Is it someone who is deliberately provoking, or the eldest princess is deliberate, as long as the eldest princess is recalled." Now that the north is in peace, otherwise such a message would not have been spread, in this case, why didn't the eldest princess return to the court? Originally, the position of state pastor was also the prince's remote leader. The eldest princess still has the post of secretary of the military department on her back. ”

After speaking, he looked at Emperor Hongxing, he absolutely couldn't let Li Shengxing go outside and not come back.

Emperor Mingzhang, who was at the top, was still a little hesitant when he heard this, and after a while, he said, "Then let my aunt come back." ”

Li Xun didn't refute it out loud, because his aunt was already planning to come back, and he was just trying to help her refute it.

After the courtiers dispersed, Emperor Mingzhang left Li Xun.

The two played chess at the Lake Pavilion in the palace.

The summer is hot, but the lake pavilion is windy on all sides, and because it is the two most noble in the whole dynasty, a lot of ice is piled up in the pavilion, and there are palace people fanning the wind, and it is almost impossible to feel the heat.

There are many lotus flowers planted in the lake, and when it comes to July, they bloom one after another, like a continuous variety of Shu brocade, shining in the daytime, and it is beautiful. There are water birds skimming over the lake, attracting rippling water waves, adding natural fun.

Li Xun is playing chess with Li Heng, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are not only requirements for everyone's ladies, it can even be said that everyone's ladies' beauty may not be proficient in everything, but under the strict requirements of Emperor Hongxing, these are also compulsory courses for his children.

Whether it is Li Xun, Li Heng or even Li Shuyi, who is a female dependent, they are all highly skilled.

Li Xun is older, and his chess skills have always been stronger than the existence of his two younger siblings.

But now that he is playing chess with the little emperor, he already has a feeling of being a little powerless, and the little emperor has been a lot more skilled in chess in recent years.

"Wechen lost." Li Xun sighed leisurely.

Emperor Mingzhang smiled lightly, "Brother agreed." ”

"It's the saint's chess skills." Li Xun shook his head slightly.

Emperor Ming Zhang took the ice drink sent by the palace people, took a sip, and then continued: "Brother, we haven't played chess together for many years. I remember playing chess back then, I didn't understand anything, but my brother taught and accompanied me, and I gradually became proficient. ”

Thinking of the past years, Li Xun couldn't help but show a smile, at that time, whether it was between their brothers and sisters, or between them and their aunts and nephews, they were extremely close, just like ordinary people.

It's a pity that the time is gone.

Thinking of this, Li Xun couldn't help but regret.

"This time I called my aunt back to Beijing, one is because of the rumors outside, and the other is that I really miss my aunt, now that Aya is deceased, A-Niang will not be able to return to Beijing for the rest of her life, a few of us, only plus my aunt is a family that is upright and tight, and depends on each other." Li Heng said a little aggrieved.

Li Xun was a little surprised, looking at the fifteen-year-old little emperor, people at this time were inevitably naïve and childish, but in their royal family, almost everyone was precocious. Even though their generation has a simple population, Emperor Hongxing only looks at smart children a few more times, and if not, he would rather not look at it. In such a situation, almost everyone is precocious.

Needless to say, as the former prince, he began to contact government affairs early. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, Guishan was also extremely stable and sensitive to government affairs.

Only the younger brother in front of him, as if he was as innocent as ever, didn't know if it was true or not.

"That's what the Holy One said." Li Xun nodded, fell to the ground and did not tell all the news of Li Shengxing's plan to come back because of the seemingly pitiful saint, but only echoed a little perfunctorily, and then spoke for Li Shengxian: "Don't hide it from the saint, Weichen also misses his aunt very much." It's just that my aunt has my aunt's considerations for doing things, and others don't understand, but we are a family, so we must not misunderstand. ”

"That's the truth, I naturally won't doubt my aunt." Emperor Ming Zhang sighed, and said with some concern: "I just don't know if my aunt will misunderstand me because of this, thinking that I summoned her to Beijing with ulterior motives." ”

When the little emperor said this, he was already suspicious of Li Sheng's attack, which was suspicious and unconscious.

Li Xun captured this very keenly, the real suspicion, when Ayazhi and his aunt, is the real suspicion between them. Of course, Li Xun didn't say this.

Because it is normal for the little emperor to have suspicions, not to mention his aunt who is thousands of miles away, even him, he can't see for a while what Emperor Mingzhang is thinking.

Does he trust or guard his aunt, or both?

"Your Highness, rest assured, my aunt has always been sincere, and she will definitely not have this thought." Li Xun continued to sigh with relief.
