Chapter 125: Where the Value Is
Li Yunxing nodded, his eyes were deep and difficult to distinguish.
Fortunately, Su Miaoxue did not disappoint him.
Li Yunxing showed a satisfied smile, and then ordered, "Keep staring, don't relax." ”
The Dark Guard took the order before retreating.
At this time, Li Yunxing picked up the pen again and continued to correct the folds.
Since Li Yunxing opened the early dynasty, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu court did not dare to slack off in the slightest when treating him, for fear that he would anger Long Yan and drop his tongue.
The twists and turns presented are no longer trivial matters, they are all important to the government.
When Li Yunxing reviews the folds, he often thinks about it for a long time before he puts pen to paper.
It wasn't until the twilight was sinking that Li Yunxing closed the fold in his hand and kneaded his sour neck.
At this time, he was still wearing a python-patterned yellow robe, a golden crown and a tiring hair, and his face was tired.
Seeing this, the little eunuch who had been grinding ink beside him was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to pinch the prince's shoulders and beat his back to loosen his muscles.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the weather has been hot these days, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have to take care of your health! Don't overwork. Jinxi comforted.
"Hmm."
Li Yunxing slowly closed his eyes, feeling his tense nerves slowly relax.
This Jinxi is a clever person, and last time he was beaten by the imperial doctor's order, he didn't say a word, and he didn't complain at all.
Thinking of the matter of the Imperial Doctor's order, Li Yunxing sank, and then asked, "After the last purge, Liu ...... What's wrong with the queen's side? ”
Jin Xi shook his head, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please rest assured, the queen mother rarely leaves the palace during this time, and she has not summoned the holy woman." ”
Jin Xi is the most powerful eunuch around Li Yunxing, and he naturally understands the situation in the royal family more thoroughly than others.
Now in the palace, the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen Mother is tense.
As a person close to the prince, he naturally has to keep abreast of the queen's movements.
It's just that recently, the queen mother has been very peaceful.
In addition to going to the emperor's Yongle Palace to visit and take care of him every day, he rarely goes out, let alone meets Liu Zhongqing.
Li Yunxing nodded secretly in his heart, naturally knowing the reason why Liu Ruxu did this.
Liu Ruxu is indeed a baby Su Zhaoyang, seeing that Su Zhaoyang was sent out for disaster relief, he rarely makes trouble for himself in the palace, worried that he will retaliate against Su Zhaoyang.
But at the same time, it is equivalent to giving up Su Miaoxue in disguise.
Even if she knew that Su Miaoxue was living a miserable life in the East Palace, she didn't come to pull her.
This Liu Ruxu is still a little similar to her father, and they are both scheming people.
Jin Xi saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a good mood today, so he timidly mentioned it, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the slave maid has a matter, I don't know whether to ask or not." ”
Li Yunxing was recuperating with his eyes closed, and when he heard a faint voice like a mosquito and a fly, he frowned.
"When did this teach you to be like this? If you don't want to, you can step back and get the board. Li Yunxing said in an unhappy tone.
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie, the slave knows that she is wrong." Jin Xi pounced on his knees.
I am afraid that because of one sentence, I will cause another unwarranted disaster.
"Your Highness spares your life, the slave just wants to ......ask," Jin Xi stumbled and said, "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know that the Holy Maiden was hiding poison, and did not choose to directly demolish her, but kept her in the palace all the time." ”
Li Yunxing raised his eyelids and glanced at Jin Xi, but he didn't expect Jin Xi to actually want to ask about this matter.
Then it closed again, "Get up, keep pressing." ”
The little eunuch Jinxi was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up from the ground and kneaded Li Yunxing's shoulders even harder.
"Why would you want to ask this?"
"The slave maid is just curious, what is so special about this holy woman, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not angry with her betrayal?"
"Not only that, but also gave her the precious king peony in the imperial garden, just a holy daughter, why bother the prince."
This is the long-standing confusion in Jinxi's heart.
Su Miaoxue is just a saintess, and in the final analysis, she is just a puppet of the Liu family, a tool used to confuse the Martial Emperor.
Moreover, the name of the saint is just a fictitious position, and the real power is still in the hands of Liu Zhongqing.
The prince knew that Su Miaoxue's value was not high, but he still had high hopes.
According to His Royal Highness the Prince's habit of dealing with traitors in the past, perhaps Su Miaoxue doesn't know where she died now.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only did not punish her, but also rewarded her with a lot of gifts.
In this way, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really like Su Miaoxue?
"You only know that Su Miaoxue is a saint, do you know who she represents?" Li Yunxing suddenly asked rhetorically.
Jin Xi was stunned when he heard this, and then replied, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is talking about the Liu family?" ”
Li Yunxing smiled and shook his head, "No, the Liu family is a backer." She represents the Su family. ”
"The Su clan?" Jinxi's eyes widened when he heard this.
This Su Tianyang was executed by the crown prince, where is there still the Su family in this court?
"Yes. Don't think that if Su Tianyang is dead, this Su clan will be broken. ”
"Su Zhaoyang, as his sister-in-law, should take on the obligation of revitalizing the Su style. Although the Manchu Dynasty knew that Liu Zhongqing cultivated Su Zhaoyang as a pawn to win the heir, in order to be able to control the court in the future. ”
"But this palace doesn't believe it, Su Zhaoyang is not a person who is willing to be subordinate, is he really willing to be Liu Zhongqing's puppet?"
Su Tianyang is dead, and now the Su family only has two bloodlines, Su Zhaoyang and Su Miaoxue.
Although Su Zhaoyang is cowardly, he also attaches great importance to affection, he looks like a mother and son to Liu Ruxu, not to mention his only blood Su Miaoxue.
But Su Miaoxue is different from Su Zhaoyang, she is a woman, she does not yearn for glory and wealth, and she is unwilling to participate in the competition for power in the court.
Liu Zhongqing thought that the conditions he gave were enough to satisfy Su Miaoxue.
As everyone knows, the "freedom" promised by Li Yunxing is what Su Miaoxue wants most.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, do you want to use Su Miaoxue to blackmail Su Zhaoyang?" Jinxi was surprised.
"Hehe, coercion? No! Li Yunxing said contemptuously, "Su Miaoxue may eventually become a pawn of the palace and spy on the information of the Liu family for the palace." ”
Just one Su Miaoxue can blackmail Su Zhaoyang, how can Su Miaoxue have such a high value.
What he wants is to make Su Miaoxue a bargaining chip for him to spy on the Su family's intelligence!
Su Miaoxue's identity is special, which will not arouse Liu Zhongqing's suspicion, and can also be favored by Liu Ruxu.
"Your Highness, this move is wonderful!" Jinxi couldn't help but admire.
Li Yunxing hooked his lips slightly and did not explain again.
"Oh, I see! The slave understood. "Jinxi suddenly realized." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise! ”
"Well, let's go down. When this palace is not in the palace recently, you should also keep an eye on it. If the saint has contact with the queen's mother, she must report to the palace. ”
"Yes."
"Remember, under no circumstances should you reveal your whereabouts."
"Slave and maid provincial!" Jinxi nodded.
