"At this time?" Shi Niang was shocked again by the news revealed by He Ye, and when she got a positive answer, her brain spun quickly, and she was silent for a long time before she analyzed: "The king of Northern Liao is jealous of the Xiao clan of the descendant clan, and because he favors Concubine Shu, he intends to appoint the fifteenth prince of Concubine Shu as the prince, of course the Northern Liao Xiao will resolutely oppose it, even if the royal Yelu clan, that is, those clans of Northern Liao, I am afraid that many will not be convinced." ”
He Ye's analysis of Eleven Niang was very approving: "Because Concubine Shu is a Zhou person after all, not a native of Northern Liao, in the eyes of the Northern Liao royal family, the bloodline of the fifteenth prince is not pure, and although there are many sons of the king of Northern Liao, most of the biological mothers are palace slaves, and there is no power behind them, except for the eight princes who came to Jinyang City in exile, only the fifteenth prince is qualified to compete with the eldest prince." ”
"This means that although the king of Northern Liao loves Concubine Shu, the choice of the fifteenth prince as the prince is somewhat out of helplessness, and because even the Yelu clan has a lot of opposition to the fifteenth prince, the king of Northern Liao is not sure that he will be able to get his wish, so the matter of establishing the prince has been delayed, but of course Empress Xiao also understands some of the taboos of the king of Northern Liao against the descendants, and now Yeluhong is obviously suppressing the descendants, why is Empress Xiao instigating the clan to admonish at this time, and is anxious to let the dust settle on the storage position?"
Eleven Niang has no doubt that there must be the promotion of the Xiao family behind those Northern Liao clans who have been admonished to make the eldest prince the prince, but Empress Xiao must understand that now is not the best time to seize the prince.
"I suspect that Empress Xiao is afraid that her life will not be long." He Ye said: "After all, Empress Xiao of Northern Liao is already old, and it is difficult to escape the fate of life, old age, sickness and death. ”
Eleven Niang obviously thought of this: "The eldest prince of Northern Liao, although he is the eldest prince, has long passed the year of standing and has not yet sat firmly in the storage position, and it seems that he has not heard of any achievements, and he should be ordinary in civil and martial arts. ”
She almost immediately thought of a divisive plan, and her eyes were burning and shining: "Empress Xiao is not sure of victory, the eldest prince may be even more uneasy, but with help, the eldest prince will not refuse even if he is afraid, the Great Zhou Imperial Court has treated the Mingkong Mage favorably for a long time, and it is time to let him play a role, and he can't always keep him in vain." ”
She excitedly elaborated on the plan she had just thought of, and discussed the details with He Ye to improve the details, such a conversation, the husband and wife actually ignored that the twilight was already dark, until His Royal Highness the King of Jin's stomach "gurgling", the princess was like an initiation, and hurriedly asked the servants outside the warm pavilion to present the meal, and she herself coped with the dinner three times and twice, and was busy writing a letter of advice, but was stopped by He Ye.
"There is no need to worry about these things, I have to discuss and improve with Xuanzhi and others, and there is another thing, the young man who knelt in front of the palace and insisted on joining the army today, the princess did not find anything strange?"
Eleven Niang originally thought that He Ye was pestering her and wanted to "do this and that", and even the rhetoric of "big things are important" had been drafted, but she didn't want to hear such a question, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, still thinking that He Ye was too suspicious: "That Qu Xiaolang is indeed from Huaixifang, and my brother is sure that he died in battle not long ago, and according to Bi Nu, when he went to pick up the widowed mother, he made a little inquiry, and the neighbors praised Qu Xiaolang for being very filial, there is nothing suspicious about his origin, and he is only twelve or thirteen years old, how can it be a tenant?" ”
He Ye put on an unfathomable look: "How can I say that he is a tenant?" But why didn't the princess want to think about it, the official of Huaixi Fangfang suggested that he come to the palace to kneel and beg, arranged for the escort of the husband, and even promised to take care of the food and clothing of the young widow, which seemed to be too conscientious? ”
Eleven Niang frowned: "His Royal Highness suspects that Qu Feng'er is behind it, is it deliberately instigated by the fang officials?" ”
"I just think there's a little bit of something strange about it."
"But what's the purpose?" Eleven Niang couldn't help but be more cautious: "According to my observation, Qu Feng'er doesn't seem to have bad intentions, and it is impossible to listen to the traitors and bribes, and sneak into the palace to do trouble, and I don't believe that the owner of the workshop can predict the prophet, I expected that I would accept Qu Feng'er to practice archery and horses in the mansion, after all, this is just my temporary idea." Even so, Qu Feng'er's temporary residence in the palace is also with the families of the soldiers, and he can't even enter the front yard, so what's the use? ”
"Of course he couldn't have expected that the princess would take in Qu Feng'er to live in the palace, but didn't the princess praise a single man to join the army in the past?" He Ye reminded.
"Your Highness is saying...... The owner thinks I'll allow Qu Feng'er to join the army? ”
"Such a young man, even if the princess agrees, it is unlikely that he will be allowed to enter the Wuwei Hou Department as the main force to kill the enemy, but it is not possible to recommend him to Yunzhou, after all, the Yunzhou Department is only stationed, and the danger is not great, and Yunzhou City is being built, and there is a shortage of manpower, this young man can't go into battle to kill the enemy, but he has a good strength, and it is not appropriate to carry out the preparation as a military service?" He Ye said again.
"But even so, what role can Qu Feng'er play so that she is used by traitorous people?"
"It's hard for me to say for sure, but after a look at the officials of Huaixi Fangfang, it won't be a big waste of Zhou Zhang."
Eleven Niang was about to act immediately: "Just let Binu practice, I'll tell her." ”
Binu got this task that seemed to her to be very important, and she was excited and nervous, and she didn't sleep well after a night of tossing and turning, and the next morning she went to see the mother and son of the two of them, and then rushed to Huaixifang, not in a hurry to see the official, but talked with many small traders and residents in the market and inquired about many affairs, until after noon, she went to see the owner.
The official does not have the official office of the official, and the duty office is only in the Wuhou shop, generally after the noon, there is no need to sit in the room on duty, or to watch the street song, or go back to his own house, let him be free, but if an accident occurs, find someone to solve it, but Huaixi Fang, the surname of the square official, is still sitting in the room on duty at this time, when listening to the palace envoy to see, hurriedly greeted out.
Binu looked at this one, I am afraid that he is about forty years old, half-old cloth robe, hair wrapped in his head, and a square face, but he is thin and thin, as if he didn't sleep well at night.
Binu only said that it was because of Qu Feng'er's accident, but the princess heard that He Fangguan had done her duty, asked her to come to praise, and asked about a lot of affairs, so she said this for nearly half an hour, and then said goodbye, without revealing her true intentions at all.
However, when he returned to Yuguanju to resume his life, Binu already had some judgments: "I heard that the maid was from the Jin Palace, He Fangguan immediately showed nervousness, and the maid did not show any voucher at all, and he did not question it, for some reason it seemed that he expected the princess to send someone to ask, the maid first asked him about the bruised eyelids, but because he was worried and did not sleep peacefully, He Fangguan did not hesitate to deny it, and became more and more suspicious of wanting to cover the seal, until he heard that the maid went to praise him, he was relieved, and waited for the maid to ask about the affairs of the community, For example, how many military families, how many families died in battle, and even which military families were diagnosed and treated by which doctor and when they were cured, and so on. ”
Seeing that the princess was thoughtful, Binu took a long breath and continued: "But according to the maid's inquiry from the neighborhood, what is this official has also done for seven or eight years, although there was no compassion for the orphans and the weak, relief of the poor, but also did not help the rich and noble to bully the township, it is considered decent, and since three years ago, the princess told Shi Dezheng, what is the immediate diligence, Huai Xifang since the new deal, the military family pension has never been delayed, He Wei also seriously often go to the Fang military family, ask about the worries of food and clothing, not only Qu Yu, Many military family members suffer from diseases, and He Wei also arranges doctors for treatment in a timely manner, which is not like treating the Qu family separately because of an intention. ”
Although Bi Nu did not make a definite judgment, Shi Niang originally did not expect her to be able to find out what is right and wrong after this trip, so she only asked with a smile: "Then next, how do you want to test this official?"
