Chapter 459: Old Ancestor's Decision
Old Ancestor was silent for a while and spoke.
"Okay, you guys stand down first."
"Yes, Ancestor."
The two retired.
As the two disappeared into the main hall, the ancestor chuckled:
"It seems that the many princes of this generation are a bit interesting."
"Li Ming, what do you think of Li Yuan, the king of Chu?"
As the ancestor spoke, a kind old eunuch appeared in the hall, bowing slightly.
Mr. Li used to be Emperor Yu's personal eunuch.
"The five princes have good character, when Your Majesty was alive, he was very optimistic about the five princes, although the talents under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Chu are quite mysterious, but they are loyal to the five princes."
Manager Li recalled that Li Yuan, the fifth prince who was still in the palace, was always smiling at that time, and was kind and tolerant to the palace maids and eunuchs, and the people in the palace had a very good sense of the five princes.
"But the origin of these talents under the command of the King of Chu is unknown, will they come from the other two dynasties and lure the King of Chu to be fooled."
At this time, an old man of the royal family also appeared in the main hall, and he said with a worried face.
Manager Li's eyes moved slightly, and he slowly lowered his head, it is not that there is no such possibility, the royal family has investigated Xun Yu, A Qing, Jia Xu, and Lu Bu, and they have found nothing in the entire Dayu Dynasty, there are no clues, and they are obviously not from the Dayu Dynasty.
However, the old man sneered:
"Hehe, it's impossible, not to mention whether the two major royal dynasties have such a world-famous arrogance as Ah Qing and Lu Bu, even if there is, are they willing to send them out!"
Manager Li and the old man of the royal family were silent.
Old Ancestor got up slowly, "Li Ce is right, the King of Chu is a member of our royal family, and I will be clear about the mystery of these people in person."
As long as they are loyal to the King of Chu, who they are and what does it matter, they are the pillars of the Yu Dynasty! ”
Chief Manager Li and the old man of the royal family bowed their heads and bent over.
"Li Ming, you go with me to see the King of Chu."
"Li Xian, you guard Kyoto, you don't have to worry about the officials who jump up and down in the imperial court, they have their way of survival, but you have to take care of the group of wastes in the royal family, if anyone dares to interfere indiscriminately and break their legs!"
"Yes, Ancestor."
The old man of the royal family nodded heavily.
In the end, the ancestor's hesitant words floated in the main hall:
"What if...... Ancestor, I had an accident, so you took the Seventh Prince Li Ce to leave Kyoto secretly. ”
The old man of the royal family was shocked and raised his head suddenly.
It's a pity that the figures of Lao Zu and Li Ming have disappeared.
Outside the gate of the temple, Li Ce and Li Hui walked out with heavy faces, especially Li Ce, the fists looming in his sleeves were clenched tightly.
Astonished the eyes of distant observers.
"Okay, you guys go back first, wait for the ancestor to inform."
King Luo has already received the transmission of the royal ancestor and cooperated with the two people.
"Thank you, Uncle Huang."
The two of them are weak and look decrepit.
Sure enough, when the two of them returned to the palace on the front foot, Queen Lin and Concubine Lu Guifei arrived on the back foot.
"Seventh brother, eighth brother, what did the ancestor say?"
Concubine Lu looked nervous and couldn't wait to speak, they were very surprised when they learned that the two of them had expressions when they left the temple.
Li Ce opened his mouth and showed an expression that was more ugly than crying:
"Imperial sister-in-law, my brother is worthy of his mission."
"Huh?"
When Empress Lin and Concubine Lu Guifei saw Li Ce's expression, their faces were dazed, and what they wanted to say stopped.
"Seventh brother, what do you mean?"
Empress Lin asked inexplicably, her bright eyes revealing a hint of expectation.
"My eighth brother and I begged the ancestor according to the meaning of the imperial sister-in-law, and the ancestor was moved by our sincerity, especially the king of Xuan was still dealing with Chu Junxiong, and the ancestor thought that the king of Chu could not be allowed to enter the capital so quickly, so he decided to give the fourth emperor brother another chance to let him re-preside over the overall situation of the imperial court."
"What!"
Concubine Lu stood up in shock.
Empress Lin was also surprised, and her eyes were fixed on Li Ce: "Seventh brother, is this true?" ”
Li Ce endured the pain and nodded heavily.
Li Hui on the side spoke: "Two imperial sisters-in-law, how could we lie to you, the ancestors have already left the Zongmiao to find the King of Chu and ask the four emperor brothers back." ”
"If you don't believe it, you can go and find out if the ancestor is still in the temple."
Empress Lin and Concubine Lu glanced at each other, their hearts were covered by a huge surprise, they never thought that the seventh and eighth children would give them such a big surprise.
They finally understood why Li Ce was unhappy.
"Imperial sister-in-law, when the fourth imperial brother comes back, don't forget our credit, our feet are numb, and the ancestor will let go." Li Hui rubbed his knees and invited merit.
"Don't worry, you can rest assured!"
"When Your Majesty comes back, you will be the first hero, and Your Majesty will open the palace for you as soon as possible."
Empress Lin agreed.
"Uh-huh!"
Concubine Lu nodded hurriedly on the side.
Li Ce took a deep breath and said to the second daughter:
"Okay, then we'll wait for the good news of the royal brother's return."
"Well, seventh brother and eighth brother, you have worked hard today, so we won't disturb your rest."
Empress Lin offered a farewell.
After Empress Lin and Concubine Lu left, the sadness in Li Ce's eyes ended, and he raised his eyebrows lightly at Li Hui, revealing a little fox-like smile.
On the main road of the palace, Empress Lin and Concubine Lu sat intimately on the Fengpao.
Lu Guifei said with excitement on her face: "Sister, it's great that Your Majesty can come back, let's tell Lin Xianghe and father right away." ”
Queen Lin's eyes were faintly excited, but her face had calmed down, but she shook her head and refused:
"No, sister, we can't pass the news of His Majesty's coming back to my father and Lord Lu now."
"Huh? Why? Lu Guifei's expression was stunned.
"Sister, don't you understand now, we have become our father's abandoned sons, and they have now taken refuge in King Xuan." Empress Lin said calmly.
When Lin Xiang sent someone to find her to persuade the Seven Princes to prevent the King of Chu from entering Beijing, Empress Lin had already understood Lin Xiang's thoughts.
Emperor Yao had already lost, and King Chu's entry into Beijing didn't matter to the two of their concubines.
Whether the king of Chu wins or the king of Xuan wins, it has no effect on them.
"But Your Majesty is back, Lin Xiang and his father will definitely help Your Majesty again." Concubine Lu was puzzled.
"No, I understand my father, His Majesty doesn't have the strength to give him what he wants, and now only King Xuan can, so my father has given up on us."
"If we tell our father the news of His Majesty's return to Beijing, I am afraid that they will immediately tell King Xuan, turn their heads to support the seventh brother, and prevent His Majesty from regaining control of the imperial court."
Empress Lin's lips were a little pale.
Concubine Lu's eyes were red, she also knew her father and understood that what Queen Lin said was true.
"So what do we do?"
"Let's not tell our father that their Majesty is going back to Beijing, and when Your Majesty returns, we will catch them off guard!"
"But Lin Xiang and his father are waiting for news from us."
"Drag, let's find a way to hold them back for a few days, and wait for His Majesty to return!" (End of chapter)
