Chapter 540: The King of the County Makes a Move
After retreating, the eldest lady never appeared again.
Until Li Xiang and his group left, the eldest lady was still serving by Cui Pu's side. Later, until the end of the year, the eldest lady did not go out again, but was locked up at home by Mu Jiaojiao to study and embroider and raise her younger siblings.
In the past, the eldest lady would go to Mo Nan every two or three months, and she would play with the little lady of the Gao family and the Guo family. But after she went, she always ran to the barracks, and from time to time she had a chance encounter with Li Xiang. After a long time, everyone will understand her intentions, so naturally some people will use this to make fun of Li Xiang.
Li Xiang repeatedly stated that he had nothing to do with the eldest lady, and every time he faced the eldest lady, he had a cold face. However, the eldest lady always didn't care, and still took the initiative to come to him, and he gradually got used to the eldest lady's initiative to be courteous.
But from that day on, the eldest lady suddenly changed her attitude. Although he didn't come to the Duhu Mansion to play during this time, the correspondence with the Gao family was not broken, and Guo Xi and Guo Yang also got a lot of medicinal materials sent by her. However, Li Xiang seemed to have been forgotten by her.
During this time, Li Xiang's mood has not been very good.
Seeing him like this, his partners couldn't help but quip: "Why, every time you were pestered by Shi Qianjin before, your face was not good-looking, why is it that now Shi Qianjin doesn't come to pester you, your face is even more ugly? Don't say that when others look down on you, you look down on that little lady again!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? She is the lady of the Boling Cui clan and has a noble background, so what qualifications do I have to look down on her?" Li Xiang said coldly.
"Oh, so you don't think you're worthy of her!
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Xiangluo stand up suddenly. The face is gloomy, the eyes are dark, and the whole body also faintly exudes a seeping momentum, which makes people feel cold.
He looked at him like this, as if he was about to rush over and beat the person in front of him at any moment.
The partner was taken aback. "What are you doing? You don't want to fight with me, are you? There was a random fight in the barracks, and if you were discovered, you were going to be beaten with thirty sticks! Ah, I remember, thanks to Shi Qianjin, you have been beaten with two thirty sticks in a row! Speaking of which, she is your broom star, so it's no wonder you don't have a good face for her. If it were me, I wouldn't have a good face for such a person! However, the medicine she made was good, much better than the one made by our military doctors. If she doesn't come again, won't we be able to get good medicine from you?"
"I'm still too busy to talk nonsense with you. Li Xiang stopped him with a cold drink, then turned around and strode away.
Seeing this, the partner pouted: "Obviously, I can't bear it, and I have to pretend hard." Okay now, it's your turn to cry, right?"
In fact, the current lady has no time to think about these things. Now she is very worried about Cui Pu - this time she made her own initiative to help An Sishun, if Cui Pu made a meritorious service, it would be fine, so that he could go to the book to ask for a merit to offset it. As a result, his old man was blindfolded when he arrived at the scene, and when the Hengsai army was killed, he reacted and rushed over to cut a few knives when the battle was over, and at the end he was cut by the Turkic army who was trapped in the beast fight, which was really embarrassing to see his grandmother's house.
Although An Sishun was willing to help him say a few good words, he made a mistake when he made a mistake. At this time, Li Linfu will definitely not let him go.
Truly.
When he learned that Cui Pu actually participated in the battle against the Turks regardless of his identity, Li Linfu was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered the imperial history to write an excerpt and participate in Cui Pu's cross-border action. Not only that, but he also made people start fabricating evidence, trying to fabricate the illusion that Cui Pu was colluding with the Turks.
After all, in addition to An Sishun, there were also Hengsai troops and other nearby armies participating in the battle at that time. There must be people from him and An Lushan in these armies. When these people went back, they hurriedly wrote to him and made Cui Pu's performance at that time clear. Then, when he arrived at the scene with his troops and did not hurry up to kill the enemy, but was grinding on the sidelines, doesn't this really mean that he has a ghost in his heart? Finally, when he saw that the balance of victory was tilted in our favor, he howled and made a few gestures, and deliberately asked a Turkic soldier to injure him, which was clearly a pretense and made people think that he had done his best for this battle!
Li Linfu is a good hand at doing this kind of thing. In just three days, evidence of collusion between Cui Pu and the Turks was presented to the sage.
When the sage saw this, he was really furious, so he slapped the table and shouted that Cui Pu should be brought back to Chang'an for interrogation.
But at this moment, Gao Lishi hurriedly ran over: "Sage, it's not good......! He beat Li Zhongshu at the gate of the palace!"
"What!?"
Hearing this, not only the saint was surprised, but even Yang Guifei, who was thinking about whether to persuade the saint to calm his anger or add fuel to the fire, was also stunned.
"The King of Hejian is actually out of the house?" she whispered.
Since the king of Hejian County came back from Guangzhou, he has been closed all year round, except for the New Year's festival, and even the saint's call is refused. In addition to the back door of the county king's mansion, there are often people coming in and out to buy, and everyone thinks that this Hejian county king is not in Chang'an City!
The sage often sighed in front of Yang Guifei: "This thirteen lang, he is too sensible." Among the royal family, there are few who think about me so much. Now that he is closed, it is not to avoid suspicion? Just because of his heart, not only should I treat him well, but my children and grandchildren will also be filial to him in the future. ”
Whether to avoid suspicion or not, she is too lazy to care. However, the face of the king of Hejian is so good, and now he is a person of Jiazi age, but he still looks graceful and has bright facial features, and at a glance he seems to be in his early forties, like a beautiful uncle. For such a person, even if the king of Hejian has always been lukewarm to her, she is willing to be close to him from the bottom of her heart.
It's a pity that the king of Hejian and the saint don't have much contact, so how can she stand up to see her? She hasn't bothered to think about how to let the king of Hejian come out and let her have a good look at his demeanor. As a result, it's okay now, she has thought of so many ways to no avail, today Li Linfu entered the palace, and was actually stopped and beaten by him at the gate of the palace!
Knowing this, she should have let Li Linfu walk at the gate of the palace a few more times. Yang Guifei thought secretly in her heart.
The saint was also amazed. Although he didn't understand that he was more surprised that the King of Hejian County suddenly went out, he was still more surprised that the King of Hejian County beat Li Linfu in a good manner.
Anyway, he only had one thing to do now - "Quickly announce the two of them into the palace!
Soon, the king of Hejian and Li Linfu entered the palace.
When they saw Li Linfu, both the saint and Yang Guifei couldn't help but gasp - I really didn't see that the king of Hejian County was so ruthless in beating people!
Li Linfu is a handful of old people, but he is very particular about his manners, every time he goes out, he must be neatly dressed, and even a handful of goatees are neatly combed, and the roots are clear, so that it is convenient to highlight the bearing of others.
Fortunately, his clothes were torn crookedly, and the cuffs of his placket were torn, revealing the white middle coat inside. His hair was meticulously combed, his beard was scratched like a bird's nest, and there were a few distinct blood marks on his face.
Looking at the new Tang Dynasty, how many people dare to do such a ruthless attack on him? Even the saints themselves don't have the guts!
At this moment, the saint seemed to have returned to more than forty years ago, when the fourteen-year-old boy faced the begging Princess Anle and raised a knife and slashed at her without hesitation. Then, another knife, another knife......
Every time he slashed, Princess Anle's wail became more miserable. However, after slashing dozens of knives in a row, Princess An Le was scarred all over her body, and her blood flowed profusely, but her consciousness remained awake, and that life was naturally still there.
In the end, Princess Anle knelt down in front of him, crying and begging for mercy: "I was wrong, you give me a knife! Please, let me die happily! I don't want to live in the world anymore!"
And the young man, he was still not in a hurry, and continued to cut one knife at a time. After slashing forty-five knives in a row, he said, "These forty-five knives were cut for the forty-five family members I killed by you back then." As for this last cut, it was cut for myself!"
Then, a knife ended Princess Anle's life.
He was standing on the sidelines, stunned by the situation. And the young man covered in blood turned around and smiled at him after cutting off Princess Anle's head with a knife.
The combination of white teeth, a face splashed with blood, and a happy and bright smile inexplicably made him cold from the soles of his feet to his hair.
I thought he would be so violent in the future, but he didn't. After solving Princess Anle, after he got the title, he lived in seclusion and became the most low-key prince.
After so many years, he almost thought that he was really just a gentle and smiling county king, but what he did to Li Linfu today reminded him of the past.
The saint felt a chill spread from his back again, and his hands and feet became cold in an instant.
"Sage, please be the master of your ministers!" As soon as he approached, the king of Hejian suddenly knelt down and shouted loudly.
This call surprised everyone again.
Li Linfu had an expression of being kissed by thunder, and his eyes were about to pop out of his sockets when he looked at the king of Hejian County.
For a moment, he suddenly felt so aggrieved - it was obviously him who was beaten, but he didn't ask the saint to be the master, what did this person ask for?
Is there any reason left?
