Chapter 379: Just This Craft (Five Thousand Chapters Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Lin Yunyan returned to the flower hall.

Xu Jian was still sitting on the couch, holding a tea cup, and drinking slowly.

Seeing Lin Yunyan come back, Xu Jian leaned sideways and took the one she had used, poured the cold tea inside, and added hot one.

"Today's jujube mud cake is good," Xu Jian pushed the teacup over, "It's just right with tea." ”

Lin Yunyan bent her eyes and smiled.

Now that Li Shao is gone, the two of them don't need to pretend to be deep in their own homes, but they are a lot more relaxed because of the smooth progress.

"Lord Gu is really a good clock," Lin Yunyan bit the jujube cake, commented, thought about it and said, "You said earlier that You Yushi and Lord Gu have a personal relationship, and it stands to reason that you will be a pioneer in trouble, so where did Zhen Yushi come from?" ”

Xu Jian sipped the tea, and his eyebrows stretched: "If I didn't guess wrong, it might be Fei Taishi." ”

Lin Yunyan raised her eyebrows.

In the court, she is definitely not as clear as Xu Jian.

"Zhen Yushi is the twenty-third list of Taixing, and the chief examiner that year was the then Shangshu Fei of the Ministry of Rites, which is now Fei Taishi," Xu Jian said, "Zhen is considered to be Fei Taishi's protΓ©gΓ©, but among the protΓ©gΓ©s, it seems that the relationship is not close enough." ”

Those who can sit on the position of the three princes have naturally worked hard in the court for many years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that "the sky is full of peaches and plums".

The relationship between the examinee and the examiner is not exaggerated, but there are few teachers and too many students, and only a very small number of students either vote for the teacher's temper, or meet the teacher's eyes, or can get involved with relatives.

Among the many students of Master Fei, Zhen Yushi is really not a "fellow traveler" on the surface.

In the thousand-step corridor, I met a respectful salute, and I wanted to go to the Taishi's Mansion to give some New Year's gifts during the New Year's Festival, but I couldn't do it, and I was not close enough, and there would be a suspicion of clinging.

"I also found out once that Zhen Yushi has been cooperating with Fei Taishi's ideas." Xu Jiandao.

Lin Yunyan bowed slightly, and did not ask "once".

It must be one of those chaos.

As Xu Jian said, it is precisely because he has repeatedly walked through too much time that he can find the details that others can't see in those years, and it is those small and fragmented corners that make up for their present little by little.

"The Holy Lord has discussed with the Third Duke about abolishing the crown prince before," Xu Jian continued, "Master Fei understands the Holy Master's thoughts, and when he saw the Thousand Steps Corridor discussing Li Shao's old things, he simply seized this opportunity.

It's just that he doesn't seem to have any contact with Lord Zhen on the surface, and others won't think of him.

I guess maybe the saints don't know. ”

Lin Yunyan smiled: "It's good that I don't know." ”

Gu Heng has a long history of attacking the prince, and his interests are related, so no one will think much about it.

And if other people think of Master Fei's opinion from Lord Zhen's troubles, and then think of the subtle expression when the three princes came out of the imperial study not long ago, they may taste something.

It is precisely because of this that Taishi Fei asked Master Zhen to come forward, unknowingly.

Lin Yunyan used another piece of jujube paste cake and said, "I almost laughed just now." ”

Xu Jian raised his eyes to look at her.

Although the little county lord didn't say it explicitly, he could understand the meaning of her words.

Thinking of the scene just now, the corners of Xu Jian's lips raised slightly, and he echoed: "Indeed." ”

Looking at each other, Lin Yunyan's eyes bent, and her smile became a little bigger: "Wang Gouzi was so anxious that he almost barked at Li Shao." ”

Otherwise, how can you say "this time and that time"?

When Feng Neishou followed Li Shao, in addition to letting Li Shao not get out of the way, and the saint could get along with the friendship between father and son, there was also a way for Li Shao to pick something for Xu Jian, it was best to find something, and if he couldn't find it, it would be best if he could get Xu Jian into trouble.

When Feng Nei's servant falls into the hands of Gonggong Cao, how can the person behind the scenes no longer extend his hand to the East Palace?

The one who was inserted was Wang Gouzi.

On the surface, it belongs to Yongji Palace, and it is also Yongji Palace that will be told by the saint.

It's just that the saint moved to abolish the crown prince to warn Li Shao.

The front foot has just produced a scheming Feng chamberlain, and the back foot saint can let Li Shao easily transfer the chamberlain of Yongji Palace to the East Palace, with the acumen of the person behind the scenes, how can he be unaware of the mind of the saint?

So now the situation is completely reversed.

Xu Jian and Lin Yunyan obeyed the holy will to find trouble with Li Shao, and Wang Gouzi had to find ways to stabilize Li Shao and prevent him from causing trouble.

If it was really the two armies facing each other and lining up to set up a formation, it should have been equal, but Li Shao could grasp too many handles, and the people behind the scenes did not come forward in person, how could Wang Gouzi be able to fight and patch it only by relying on Wang Gouzi?

This made Li Shao's winter clothes leak, and there was no hot place on his body.

"I knew today," Xu Jian commented, "he definitely wouldn't let Feng Nei do something to provoke." ”

What tiger bones, the county lord came to ask for it, and immediately turned over the treasury; What kind of real injury is fake injury, Xu Jian didn't say that he trotted a few steps down the rockery in Zhangping Garden, but jumped off the pool and swam two back and forth, and he had to tell the prince that "Grandpa Guo's leg is badly injured."

Of course, if you go further, you shouldn't have designed Liu Xun to lead the prince to Chenmi Hutong.

The idea was simple.

Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and the color is a steel knife that scrapes bones.

Li Shao is easy to be seduced at this age, and once he gets used to the unique black smoke miasma, his heart and mind will be affected, and over time, no matter how well he hides it on the surface, he will be empty inside.

He is still the crown prince, but he is also an easy crown prince.

As before, Li Shao was the blade that cut off An Yibo and other knowledgeable nobles, and when they were no longer able to protect the order of the court, relying on those weaknesses in their hands, the person behind the scenes could easily drag down Li Shao, who was no longer useful.

It's just that he didn't expect that Xu Jian noticed Chen Mi Hutong.

Things went wrong, and he had to throw the house out, so he used Dao Heng as bait, and at the same time let Li Shao avoid it.

Xu Jian planned to do so, and was so angry that Li Shao appeared in the house again, and then there was a series of tail breaking moves.

What's worse is that the messy reputation that was stained on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time has not changed over time, and now it is being used by Xu Jian again.

The layout of "good" was used by Xu Jian and her backhand, what is the mood of the person behind the scenes, Lin Yunyan can know it when she thinks about it.

It is said that the five flavors are mixed, and they are all light.

That's why she was refreshed after slamming the door.

Waiting for a trip to the palace, Lin Yunyan did not delay, looked at Xu Jian's face carefully, and turned her head to ask Xu Bai to go and make a basin of hot water.

"Wash the powder off your face first, you can't get used to it." She said.

Xu Jian was helpless.

Dismissive? Obviously, the strokes are all drawn by the little county lord himself, just to present a "white with gray", and the spirit is extremely bad.

The time that made Li Shao wait was all used by her.

If it weren't for a little longer, it wouldn't be suitable, and the little county lord would have to work harder.

Xu Bai brought the basin of water and put it on the table.

Xu Jian got up and was about to wipe his face with a handkerchief, when he saw Bang Yue open her purse and take out a small silver box, which contained the incense beads of Lin Yunyan's daily cleansing face.

Putting the box down, Bang Yue said: "You have to make this, the powder paste used by the county lord is the best, the face does not show makeup, sweat does not stick, and it is not good to wash it with water." ”

Xu Jian: ......

Picking up the incense beads, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Yunyan a few times.

It's not that he can't accept the things used by these women, they all clean up and decent, how can she use what he can't.

When my grandfather was alive, he also said that when he went to the battlefield, he was covered in blood and sand, but when he retired from the war, he had to look like a person and be clean, especially when he returned to Beijing, they were military generals and nobles.

Xu Jian was just thinking that the little county lord was born fair-skinned, and her complexion was good, and she didn't look much different if she didn't smear powder, but she just loved to wipe it, and she never got tired of drawing makeup every day.

Even when I painted it for him today, I was in high spirits.

I don't know what she thinks, others are all depicting in powder and white, but the little county lord even has a gray-colored paste that he can't use on weekdays.

It's said that it's prepared, and it's really useful.

Xu Jian rubbed the incense beads, scrubbed them carefully, and when he raised his head again, he already had a healthy complexion, and only some traces were left on his sideburns and jaw.

Thinking that she couldn't distinguish the details when she closed her eyes and wiped the water, Lin Yunyan motioned for Xu Jian to sit down, took the handkerchief, bent down and approached to wipe it with him.

The smell of incense beads was all over the breath, and I couldn't tell who it was for a while.

Xu Jian looked at the people who were close at hand, and his long eyelashes fanned slightly, lining those eyes with more and more pulses.

His Adam's apple rolled down and he asked, "Did you wipe it clean?" ”

"One more point." Lin Yunyan replied, and only when she was sure that there were no more omissions did she straighten up.

Well.

It's pleasing to the eye.

is still such a complexion suitable for Xu Jian.

The gray, sickly look, although she described it, really didn't like it at all.

"I'll just have this little bit of craftsmanship, and I'll be able to make a prince," Lin Yunyan threw the handkerchief back into the basin, holding Xu Jian's face and looking left and right, "Change it to a more powerful one, maybe you can see through it." ”

The premise of being able to see through it is that one is proficient in this way, and the other is that he is close enough, both of which Li Shao can't do.

He doesn't understand this, and he is a few fists away, where can he tell the difference?

Xu Jian put Lin Yunyan's finger against her cheek and asked, "Who is powerful?" ”

"Mama Wang," Lin Yunyan replied without hesitation, "that's the craft of turning decay into magic." ”

Xu Jian smiled.

The little county lord has high ambitions, compared with Mama Wang.

But if you compare with each other, you can't come to the conclusion of "just this bit of craftsmanship".

Lin Yunyan was in a good mood, and asked Bang Yue for the balm, took some and moistened it in the palm of her hand, pressed her hands on Xu Jian's face, and didn't pay attention to the technique, let alone the severity, rubbing it back and forth.

Xu Jian didn't move, and he didn't hide, anyway, the little county lord had fine skin and tender meat, and his hand strength was only like this, and it didn't hurt at all.

Lin Yunyan wiped it out of order, and it was also wiped evenly, and she pressed Xu Jian's cheek against the back of her hand, and said, "I'll go to the palace." ”

Xu Jian smiled and said, "Okay."

After a short time, the gorgeous carriage drove out of the Fuguo Mansion and went straight to the West Palace Gate.

On the square, Bang Yue helped Lin Yunyan down with her feet, and the palace gate guards saw the county lord with a tense face, with a little depression.

When Lin Yunyan changed into a sedan chair and went to Cining Palace, the guards, you look at me, I look at you, they are a little confused.

"County Lord, what's wrong? In the past, when we saw us, we all smiled and said, 'hard work', but I just said it, but I didn't see a smile. ”

"Didn't you quarrel with Grandpa Guo?"

"Impossible, right? The county lord has a good relationship with the grandfather of the country, and everyone knows it. ”

"Who doesn't quarrel with husband and wife? No matter how good the relationship is, there are times when there are a few words. ”

"I heard that the crown prince has only recently left the Guogong Mansion......"

"The prince provoked the county lord?"

"Haven't you heard? Yesterday, there was a lot of news in the Qianbu Corridor, saying that the prince was in Yumen ......"

In this place of the Imperial City, the most difficult thing to spread is the news, and the easiest thing to spread is actually the news.

Soon, rumors began to spread everywhere.

The prince went to the Guogong Mansion to annoy the county lord of Ning'an.

The prince didn't take care of it, why did he go to the Guogong Mansion to show off his might?

When the county lord entered Cining Palace, his face sank so much that his father-in-law asked cautiously.

But in fact, when Lin Yunyan walked into Cining Palace, she had a straight face, and when she saw the queen mother, she had a few "heart", and when only Mama Wang was left in the inner hall, she stretched her eyebrows and gave the queen mother a well-behaved smile.

The Queen Mother raised her hand and patted her: "You can still laugh." ”

"I can't really cry," Lin Yunyan said softly, "I just came step by step according to the will of the saint, and if I was unhappy, I pretended to show others......

The Queen Mother sighed.

What else can be said?

If it weren't for the fact that the prince was really disagreeable, the saint would not want to use the method of abolishing the prince to sharpen his temperament.

If it weren't for the prince to be able to eat a trench, grow wise, and straighten up the back, why would Xu Jian and Yun Yan rack their brains to make a game?

Regardless of whether they knew the inside story or did not know it at all, it was difficult for the courtiers to get involved in it.

"Don't sigh," Lin Yunyan said, "I'll have fun with you, just when the prince came to the mansion, I put powder on Xu Jian's face in order to make him look ugly......

Rao is queen mother was in a heavy mood, and she was also amused by Lin Yunyan.

As soon as I laughed, my suppressed emotions melted a lot, and the whole person was a little happier.

Moreover, hearing the interesting story of Yun Yan and Xu Jianxiao's husband and wife, you can also see that they get along well, which makes the Queen Mother feel more comfortable.

Mama Wang also laughed on the side: "Grandpa Guo is really good-natured, whatever the county lord says, change a temper and have a big idea, and don't listen to his wife at all." ”

The queen mother loved to hear this, and she was satisfied, and she advised: "Don't bully people because of him, fortunately, he is in the room, and if the outside world knows, they will laugh at him." ”

"I'm not stupid," Lin Yunyan's eyes bent, and she deliberately made a silent gesture, "I will only tell you and Mama Wang, but don't tell anyone else, otherwise he will be laughed at." ”

"Okay, good," the queen mother was happy, and turned her head to Mama Wang again, "Look at her, she is like a child when she gets married." ”

"But after a few months of marriage, and if you don't become a mother, why can't you be a child?" Mama Wang teased, "County Lord, is this the reason?" ”

The reason may not be right, but the Queen Mother is happy to hear it, so this will not be wrong.

The news in the palace is fast guessing what the county lord has told the queen mother when he enters the palace, and no one knows that the inner hall of Cining Palace is full of laughter.

It's cold, the windows are closed, and the sound can't be heard, not to mention that Cining Palace values these things, and no one will go outside to break their mouths, unless it is instructed by the Queen Mother.

So, when Lin Yunyan left Cining Palace, another wave of information was added.

The county lord was still in a bad mood, his snow coat was wrapped tightly, and the inner hall called the basin, so he should have cleaned his face after crying.

The queen mother sent someone to invite the saint, and it was estimated that she wanted to make decisions for the county lord.

On the other hand, Gonggong Cao entered the imperial study and whispered to the saint: "There is someone from Cining Palace, and the Queen Mother invites you to come over." ”

The saint raised his head, glanced at the thick fold on the big case, put down the pen and pressed his eyebrows.

"How?" The saint asked, "Ning An has been there?" ”

Cao Gong said fairly: "I heard that I went, I sat for half an hour, and I just left the palace." ”

The saint shook his head with a wry smile.

Look, it's almost time for lunch, and the Queen Mother only let her go over and didn't mention a lunch, as if she was so angry that she couldn't eat.

"Let's go," said the saint, rising, "to hear what the Queen Mother has to say." ”

The saint drove the Cining Palace, and as soon as he entered, he felt that the atmosphere was very dull, and he was less than the father-in-law who led people to greet him, and the inner attendant who followed behind him was tense, and after the salute, he retreated and hid far away.

And when he entered the inner sanctum, he found that it was a different scene.

The queen mother sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed, with a bunch of horse tags spread out on the few sons beside her, and her old man closed her eyes and touched the cards to guess.

"Two cakes," she said, opening her eyes and floping, "sure enough!" ”

Saint: ......

It's quite self-satisfied.

Seeing that the saint came up, the queen mother asked Mama Wang to collect the things: "I just heard Yun Yan say that the saint asked the prince to go to the Fuguo Mansion to make amends." ”

The saint bowed his head and asked again: "Ning An came to complain to you?" When Erchen came over, he listened to a few words, saying that Ning An was crying with a straight face. ”

"Just pretend," the Queen Mother took a sip of tea, "The others don't know what's going on, isn't the saint still clear?" It was originally arranged for the prince, and it was enough to bluff it, so why cry and cry if it is true or false? is that Yun Yan is not tired, and the mourning family is also tired to watch. ”

The saint was speechless for a while, and said for a while: "I've worked hard for you." ”

"Sitting in the position of the crown prince, of course, there are corresponding responsibilities," the queen mother said, "In the same way, the mourning family is not only the queen mother, but also has the responsibility of the mourning family."

If you want the country and the people to be safe, you want the country to be smooth, and if you fall into a small place, you want to sit on the dragon chair and be competent.

Therefore, the mourning family chose the saint among the princes back then, and now they are thinking that Shao'er will succeed to the throne in the future, so in order to sharpen his strength, where can it be called hard?

The mourning family only hopes that after this experience, Shao'er can mature as soon as possible, even if she is awkward, don't hold a grudge against Yun Yan and Xu Jian for this. ”

After hearing this, the saint looked moved: "Erchen understands. ”

The two talked for a while, and then the saint got up.

When the holy driver left Cining Palace, he said to Cao Gong with a frosty face: "Where is the prince?" Let him see me in the Imperial Study! ”

I'm piecing it together again. Yesterday and today's extra 1,000 pieces are equal to one chapter plus more, plus the chapter completed by the December monthly pass sprint event.

In the new year, in January, a new monthly pass activity has also been reported, and 2,000 words will be added when the goal is reached during the double period.

So begging for a monthly pass~~~
