17. Utilization
Cui Yu and Xie Wu looked at each other with disgust, Li Yaoguang hooked the corners of his lips with some pleasure and walked into the tea room.
Seeing her come in, Cui Yu had a smile on her face, and her eyes were full of affection: "Yaoyao." β
Li Yaoguang bowed lightly at him, sat on the third edge of the long table, and slowly tidied up his clothes before he smiled and said, "Little Hou Ye, Zhongshu Ling, good afternoon." β
Xie Wu wore a white coat today, and a faint smile appeared on his pale face: "County Lord, good afternoon." β
After a pause, he asked softly: "I don't know what the county lord called me and the little marquis for?" β
What can happen?
In the original book, both of them admired Ye Shenyue, although now they keep saying that they are happy with themselves, but Li Yaoguang doesn't believe a word.
Li Yaoguang not only wanted to deal with Ye Shenyue and the Yiguo Mansion, but also wanted to remove obstacles for the East Palace, such as the sixth prince Li Jing.
Spring is coming, this has always been a good time for the major forces to recruit disciples, even if they are all protΓ©gΓ©s of the Son of Heaven, but there is only one Son of Heaven, but there are countless protΓ©gΓ©s, unless Xie Wu becomes a close minister of the Son of Heaven, otherwise most people will still choose to form a gang.
There is a doorman named Qin Ling under the hands of the six princes, who happens to participate in this year's Spring Festival, and he also happens to live in Pingkangfang temporarily.
Qin Ling is the hidden stake buried by the Six Princes in the East Palace, Li Yaoguang only knew that he was the disciple of the Six Princes after awakening his memory, but he did not deal with it immediately, but let him continue to spy on the news in the East Palace.
Li Yaoguang's plan is very simple - she wants others to think that Cui Yu and Xie Wu are from the East Palace.
It's not enough to have a relationship with her, it has to be closely related to the East Palace.
At least let the Yiguo Mansion and the Six Princes feel so.
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Xie Wu just drank tea, and couldn't help but ask again: "County Lord?" β
Li Yaoguang put down the teacup, lowered his eyes and said, "It's not a big deal...... But if the little marquis and Zhongshu Ling are willing to help me, then it will be even better. β
Xie Wu was silent, but Cui Yu was very positive: "Yaoyao, but it's okay to say it." β
Li Yaoguang glanced at him with a smile, then retracted his gaze, and said abruptly: "That day at the spring banquet, you were all there, so I said it bluntly - Ye Erniang seems to have a lot of resentment towards me and the East Palace, I don't know why, but I always feel that something is not right, I'm afraid someone is obstructing it." β
Cui Yu and Xie Wu both fell silent.
Li Yaoguang is not surprised, according to the plot, they have all crossed paths with Ye Shenyue now, Cui Yu is fine, Xie Wu is afraid ...... is already interested in Ye Shenyue.
What she said would definitely make Xie Wu unhappy, right?
Li Yaoguang thought so, and looked at Xie Wu.
Who would have thought about it, Xie Wu also looked at her with a smile, and was finally willing to speak: "If the county lord just wants to find out about this matter, it will not be difficult to hand it over to the subordinates." β
Li Yaoguang was stunned.
Cui Yu glanced at Xie Wu quietly, and then said: "The Mingkang Marquis Mansion and the Yiguo Mansion have some origins, and I will investigate this matter." β
Li Yaoguang: "That's great...... After all, this matter involves my eldest brother's marriage, and it is not good to use the manpower of the East Palace, so as not to cause gossip. β
Cui Yu pursed her lips: "Between you and me, there is no need to say thank you." β
Xie Wu also hurriedly said: "The county lord doesn't have to be like this, he will definitely investigate this matter carefully." β
Li Yaoguang said with a smile: "You are all busy one by one, but you are still willing to help, I don't give some thanks, and I can't say it." β
After a pause, she glanced at Tao Yao, Tao Yao understood, went out for a while, and soon came back with two boxes.
Li Yaoguang gently handed the two boxes to Cui Yu and Xie Wu, and motioned for them to open them: "This is a thank you gift I picked from my private treasury, you are not allowed to refuse." β
Cui Yu's box is a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, all of which are good things at the tribute level; In Xie Wu's box, there are two ancient books, the only ones in the previous dynasty, priceless treasures.
Cui Yu immediately participated in the Spring Festival, and there was also the Autumn Festival behind, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were very suitable; Xie Wu likes elegance, and the only ancient book is his preference.
It's just that...... Li Yaoguang lied.
This is not something in her private vault, but the prince's private collection.
The prince has always doted on his only daughter, and his private treasury is also kept in the hands of Li Yaoguang.
Except for a few masters of the East Palace, no one knew about it.
And these things were specially dedicated to the prince by Qin Ling a few days ago in order to curry favor with the prince and break into the interior of the East Palace.
Calculate the time, Qin Ling should also pass by this tearoom at this time, this is the only way for him to go home.
Li Yaoguang gently rubbed his temples and said to Tao Yao: "It's a little stuffy, open the door and breathe." β
Tao Yao promised, and the people present didn't think there was any problem.
And not long after the door opened, Qin Ling passed by the tea room, he heard the sound of laughter, subconsciously looked inside, and then his pupils shrank.
Sitting inside were Lord Hejia, Cui Yu, and Xie Wu.
If it's just the three of them, then there is no problem, after all, no one in Chang'an City knows now, and there is some inexplicable relationship with Lord Jiajun and them.
It's just a peach-colored scandal.
But Qin Ling has always been a careful person, he quickly scanned the table, and then found that the thing he had just given to the prince a few days ago was now in the hands of Cui Yu and Xie Wu.
Qin Ling's heartbeat missed a beat, and at this moment, Li Yaoguang glanced out "unintentionally", Qin Ling had a ghost in his heart, and immediately turned his head and left.
When he walked away, he secretly wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead, and his expression was cloudy.
β¦β¦ The prince is trying to win over the Ming Kanghou Mansion and the Xie family!
And it seems that the little marquis and Zhongshu Ling have already acquiesced.
Qin Ling frowned, and couldn't help but remember that the last time he went to the Six Princes, the Six Princes complained to him very irritably, saying that Cui Yu didn't enter the oil and salt, and refused to agree to cooperate with him no matter what.
and Xie Wu, whose attitude has always been ambiguous, and he refuses to completely stand on his side.
Now it seems...... Most of these two people were taken under the command of the East Palace.
Qin Ling was secretly glad that he had bumped into this scene today, and then his expression was dazed, and he hurriedly sent someone to report to the sixth prince.
β¦β¦
In the tea room, Li Yaoguang saw Qin Ling turn his head and leave, his back was hurried, and he laughed in his heart, knowing that the fish had taken the bait.
But on her face, she made an inexplicable appearance: "Why is that person so strange?" Don't be some kind of pervert, right? β
Xie Wu was thoughtful.
Cui Yu also looked out of the door meaninglessly.
Li Yaoguang looked at the two of them generously, knowing that they might have some doubts in their hearts, but-
That's what happened, that's how it is, if they really think so, then she can't help it!
