Sheng Guo'er made a silent gesture and said: "This matter is not to be said, you just need to do what you need to do according to my arrangement, and I have my own arrangements for the rest!" ”

Lu Wanqing said in her heart: "What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of this Sheng Guo'er?" ”

Sheng Guo'er made arrangements next, she asked Lu Wanqing to find out through her father Lu's relationship when Concubine Li planned to inspect the construction site of the palace and when it was time for her to return to her hometown to officially save her relatives, and when to start recruiting workers for the palace.

After Lu Wanqing understood Sheng Guo'er's meaning, she passed a book to her father Feige about this matter, Lu Liding felt that this matter was not difficult, but all the matters of the concubine and the relatives had established regulations, and they could be known by going to the Internal Affairs Office. The chief secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is an old friend of his fellow villagers, and it is not difficult to find out this matter.

Three days later, Lu Wanqing received the news that the time when Li Guifei went out to inspect the construction site of the Chaxing Palace was at the beginning of June, which was the time when summer was about to begin.

Sheng Guo'er is planning to transform the pastry shop into a cold drink shop, first decorate the store, and then attract Li Guifei to come here, so that she can take the opportunity to meet her.

But how to let Li Guifei automatically come to her cold drink shop is a problem that needs to be planned.

Over there, the Zhong family also took into account that Sheng Guo'er might cut off his beard, Zhong Mingyuan said to his father: "Father, Sheng Guo'er shouldn't know the relationship between our family and Li Guifei now, so if she knows the news that Li Guifei has returned to her hometown to recruit workers to build a palace, what should we do?" ”

Zhong Shide muttered: "I heard that this Sheng Guo'er also has a certain network in the imperial court, and it is not difficult to get this kind of news. So, we have to be on guard. ”

Zhong Mingyuan said: "Didn't Li Guifei explain that she would repair the plank road and secretly Chen Cang, and recruit workers on the surface, but in fact, it was given to us." ”

Zhong Shide said: "That's so, but I heard that Sheng Guo'er has worshiped Chang Bowen as his father-in-law, if Sheng Guo'er uses Chang Bowen's relationship, in case Li Guifei changes her mind, what should we do, you must know that Chang Bowen is supervising the imperial history, what does the Metropolitan Procuratorate do, specializing in investigating corrupt officials and corrupt officials." If our affairs are known to him, let alone making money, even a small life may not be able to be saved! ”

Zhong Mingyuan also said a little nervously: "I didn't expect Sheng Guo'er to still be a chess player, and we are a little passive now!" ”

Zhong Shide said with some annoyance: "This small village is really useless, such a careful layout didn't kill Sheng Guo'er!" ”

It turned out that behind Xiaozhuang was actually Zhong Shide, after Gao Jingjie was destroyed, Zhong Shide found Xiaozhuang and gave him advice and asked him to kill Sheng Guoer, but he was killed by Sheng Guoer, which made Zhong Shide very annoyed. It also contributed to the relationship between Sheng Guoer and Chang Bowen, which made Zhong Shide feel like a man at the moment!

Therefore, we must come up with a way to make Sheng Guo'er unable to see Li Guifei, so that Li Guifei can hand over the project to the Zhong family, and the Zhong family will then transfer it to the Chen family, and then have the opportunity to earn the difference.

Anyway, Li Guifei will stay for a month at most, and after Li Guifei leaves, he will sell it to some rich people at a high price in the name of Li Guifei, and part of the silver money he gets will be kept, part will be given to Li Guifei, and the other part will be donated to the imperial court in the name of Li Guifei, so that Li Guifei will gain both fame and fortune, and she will also get profits and more honors.

"Sheng Guo'er, I will never let you see Concubine Li!" Zhong Shide secretly made up his mind.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhong Shide specially made Li Guifei's favorite almond cake and went to meet Li Guifei.

"Shide, why did you come here in person today?"

Li Guifei smiled and ate the almond crisp made by Zhong Shide and said.

"The slave got up this morning and saw the magpie chirping on the branches of the peach blossom tree in your Changle Palace, and thought that something good would happen today, so he specially made an almond cake to congratulate Niangniang!"

"It's really a mouth smeared with honey, come on, borrow your auspicious words, say, what's the matter?"

Concubine Li naturally knew Zhong Shide's thoughts, and Zhong Shide bowed down; "The noble concubine is really smart, no wonder the saint loves you so much. In fact, there is nothing wrong with Shide, but the mother has a happy event! ”

Li Guifei said strangely: "Happy event? Where does my joy come from? ”

Zhong Shide said: "Niangniang, the slave only knows that you are going to inspect the construction site of the palace next month, so I went to Qin Tianjian and calculated the day and route for Niangniang. ”

Li Guifei smiled: "You are quite hearted!" ”

Zhong Shide said with a smile: "That's nature, it's naturally the duty of a slave to do things for my mother." ”

Li Guifei picked up a handkerchief, wiped her mouth, and asked, "What did Qin Tianjian say?" ”

Zhong Shide said: "Qin Tianjian said that the third day of the first month of June is a good day, and it is advisable to travel. And the route is from the west. ”

Li Guifei said strangely: "Walking from the west, isn't that a long detour, my hometown is in Ping'an Township, I should go east?" ”

Zhong Shide waved his hand and said, "You listen to me first, Niangniang." Qin Tianjian said that Niangniang's destiny belongs to the earth, the so-called Muke soil, the east belongs to wood, and the west belongs to gold, the earth is born of gold, and the west is beneficial, and June belongs to the yin soil, which is not conducive to the east, therefore, the slave thinks that Niangniang should consider this factor, or safety first! ”

Concubine Li has always been more superstitious, so she muttered: "Since this is the case, then you can help me plan the route, and then report to the Internal Affairs Office, and ask them to arrange the carriage and horses and entourage!" ”

Zhong Shide smiled slightly, bowed his hand and said, "Obey the orders of the mother!" ”

After Zhong Shide went back, he instructed Zhong Mingyuan to properly arrange all the reception matters on Li Guifei's westward journey, and be sure to let Li Guifei take advantage of the excitement and return proudly!

Zhong Mingyuan said: "Dad, you are still so powerful, you can actually say that you can move the Qin Heavenly Prison!" ”

Zhong Shide waved his hand and said, "How can Qin Tianjian listen to me, I'm talking nonsense!" ”

Zhong Mingyuan was startled and said, "Dad, this is a crime of bullying!" ”

Zhong Shide said: "Silly boy, where did she go to verify this matter, Concubine Li Guifei has always been superstitious, so my father is sure that she will not ask whether it is true or false, only in this way can we completely control her whereabouts and not let Sheng Guo'er meet Concubine Li!" Do you understand? ”

Zhong Mingyuan suddenly realized, in fact, he also thought of a lot of methods, but he didn't think of Li Guifei's superstition, it seems that Jiang is still old and spicy!

Zhong Shide naturally knew that his son was not a vegetarian, so he said: "Your method is the second plan, if there is a problem in the middle, you can directly use your method to remedy it!" ”

Zhong Mingyuan arched his hand and said: "Dad, don't worry, you must do this errand well, adjust the plan, and it is suitable for use on the way!" ”

Zhong Shide nodded with satisfaction and said: "Tell Zhong Zipan, get ready, Concubine Li's daughter is also older, and she will follow this time, and ask him to prepare, as long as Concubine Li takes a fancy to her and becomes her son-in-law, our family's position will be even more consolidated!" ”

"Yes! I'll get my little brother ready! Zhong Mingyuan said with a smile.

Concubine Li Guifei has a daughter, named Su Jin, who is also the youngest daughter of the saint, who is fourteen years old this year, which is the lively age of a girl.

That night, Concubine Li Guifei was doing some embroidery to pass the time, and suddenly the inner servant passed the order, saying that the saint came here.

Concubine Li hurriedly got up to take over, and after the emperor entered the palace, he motioned for Concubine Li to sit down.

"Holy Lord, it's so late, the concubine didn't receive the will of the attendant, and she didn't prepare, please forgive your sins."

The emperor smiled and said, "I miss you, come and talk to you!" ”

Li Guifei smiled and ordered: "Yinxin, go and bring a bowl of lotus seed soup!" ”

Not long after, the maid brought a bowl of steaming lotus seed soup, and Concubine Li Guifei served it to the emperor.

The emperor took the lotus seed soup, tasted it, and said, "It tastes good, it's still the taste you made for me during the war!" ”

Li Guifei said with a smile: "The concubine has just been done, and she put it in the cup to wait for it to cool, and the saint is just right, and this taste is the best time." ”

The emperor smiled and said: "It seems that it is really the right time for me to come, otherwise I will not be able to taste the lotus seed soup of the concubine!" ”

The two concubines looked at each other and smiled.

At this moment, outside the window, under the cold moon, a small head poked out, and then a beautiful girl with bright eyes and bright teeth and a petite figure ran and jumped in, went up and hugged the emperor who was eating lotus seed soup, and almost let the emperor spill the lotus seed soup in his hand.

Li Guifei said with a slight annoyance: "Su Jin, be good, hurry up and ask my father for peace!" ”

Su Jin playfully knelt on the ground, and said in a milky voice: "Greetings to my father!"

The emperor picked up Su Jin dotingly and said, "It's so late, why don't you sleep yet!" ”

Su Jin tilted his head and smiled: "I heard the palace maids say that my father is here, I can't sleep, I want my father to coax me to sleep!" ”

The emperor smiled and touched Su Jin's head and said, "Okay, my father coaxed you to sleep, but you have to promise your father that you will be obedient in the future, and you can't come out wearing such a thin one!" ”

Then, the emperor said in a majestic tone: "What are you eating, don't you see that the princess is thinly dressed!" ”

The palace maids hurriedly took their clothes, but at this moment, the emperor personally took off his outer robe, draped it on Su Jin's body, and asked softly, "Is it warmer?" ”

Su Jin nodded with a smile and said, "Well, my father's robe is the warmest!" ”

The emperor laughed happily, scratched Su Jin's small nose and said, "You, you will say some sweet words to coax your father!" ”

Su Jin smiled like a flower, blinked his big eyes and asked, "Father, what are sweet words?" ”

The Emperor said softly, "Sweet words, like some little worms crawling on your heart, but you feel very comfortable, but these little worms may kill you!" ”

Su Jin hid in the emperor's arms in horror and said, "Then I don't dare to listen to sweet words, it's so terrifying!" ”

The emperor laughed, holding Su Jin for a long time, now he has no respect for the emperor, just an old father taking care of his daughter, the emperor and Su Jin's father-daughter affection also made Li Guifei smile with satisfaction.

The emperor said to Concubine Li: "When are you going to choose a site?" ”

Li Guifei said: "Three days later! ”

Su Jin raised his head and said, "Father, I'm going too!" ”

The emperor frowned and said, "Why are you going!" ”

Su Jin squeezed up: "No, no, the parents haven't gone out yet, so you let me go with my mother!" Well! ~ Good father, good father, I'm the most well-behaved! ”

The emperor really couldn't stand the soft grinding and hard foaming of the little padded jacket, and finally spat out: "Okay, good, it's okay!" ”

Su Jin jumped up excitedly and said, "Really? Thank you, Father! ”

The emperor smiled and said: "When you go this time, you must bring the royal benevolence, love for the people and respect for the scholars, and show the royal demeanor!" Also, Concubine Li, I want to investigate Sheng Guo'er, I am very interested in her, if she is really a talent, let her serve the country! ”

After Li Guifei heard Sheng Guo'er's name, she said, "Actually, this Sheng Guo'er is not as powerful as people say, right?" ”

The Emperor frowned and asked, "Why do you say this?" ”

Concubine Li said with a smile: "The concubine heard some rumors about Sheng Guo'er, I don't know if to talk about it!" ”

The Emperor said, "You say! ”
