"Let me tell you, this apple is still delicious from the Wang family..."
Li Yi gnawed at half an apple with two gaps missing, handed over a piece of paper, and said, "The Zhang family in Pingyang, the Gou family in Tongzhou, the Wei family in Yunzhou... these big families have already sent their horses back , this time the imperial court gave them enough preferential treatment, and they should know what to do.
As for the others, there is nothing to worry about. The positions of the Zhang family and the Wei family are very delicate among the powerful families. They can't bear the family first, and the public opinion among the people. "
Li Mingzhu looked at him, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "You really don't think about entering the palace, power, wealth, glory... I can give you whatever you want."
"Don't think about it." Li Yi shook his head firmly.
Power, wealth, splendor and wealth... He said that he is not the same now, this invitation is not sincere at all, and there is no need to consider it at all.
Her Royal Highness took a bite of the apple and said, "I don't know what they will do next..."
"No matter what action there is, just follow it." Li Yi threw away half of the apple core, clapped his hands, and said, "It's good to have some action. If they are all quiet, I don't know where to start."
Whether it's the Yu family's embarrassment, the rebellion of the rich and powerful, or the previous ones, in most cases, it starts with the other party's death. If you really want him to actively design and target, it will be a waste Time, waste of energy, not as simple and easy as it is now.
However, after suffering so many losses in succession, the king of Shu is still nesting in Shuzhou, and they have also suffered a lot in Kyoto or other places. They should be stable for a while. Ruyi is about to give birth, and Li Yi doesn't want to be in other places Worrying about their minds and minds, if they can make themselves through this year in peace, should they be lighter when they start next year
…
Cui Qingze, the Patriarch of the Cui family, put down a letter and said, "There is news from the palace. Your Majesty said that in the past few months, it is better to be quiet than to move. You just need to pay more attention to the Eldest Princess."
"Everyone has seen the performance of the eldest princess in government affairs in recent days. She is more cautious than her majesty in handling political affairs." Someone frowned and said, "Besides, she was transferred from various ministries. Which one of those people is a simple person, waiting for the princess to make a mistake like this is probably the worst way?"
How could Cui Qingze not know that this is the worst method.
However, they also moved, but the more they moved, the greater the loss. In less than a month, the Yu family was gone, and the family that was finally united, also because of a broken book, became distracted and distracted. It's different, the eldest princess or the Marquis of Li County, see the tricks, and the methods are precise and ruthless, how dare they make another move
Without absolute certainty, he dared not act rashly any more.
Calculating carefully, in the past two years, how much the strength of the King of Shu's family has been damaged. He dare not calculate carefully. There is no battle for the heir apparent, and no factions attacking each other. How could the situation become what it is today?
After thinking carefully in his heart for the past few days, for the first time in his heart, he was not very confident about a certain matter.
"In short, these days, you should be more stable, and the children in the family should be more restrained, so that no one can get hold of them..." Cui Qingze stood up, and waved his hands in a bit of annoyance, "Today, let's stop here."
The Patriarch of the Cui family spoke, and everyone in the hall got up to leave one after another.
When walking out of Cui's mansion, Zeng Shichun paused and said, "Brother Chen, can you still go to Yangliu Lane today?"
"Same way." Chen Chong stepped out of the gate of Cui Mansion and nodded slightly.
Watching the figures of the two go away, someone finally couldn't help it, and asked in doubt: "When did the Zeng family and the Chen family get so close?"
"Never heard of any other connection between the two of them. Strange..."
Everyone was puzzled, but they didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, the two families belonged to the lineage of the King of Shu, so it was not incomprehensible that there was any connection that was different from usual.
It is still the teahouse in Yangliu Lane.
Zeng Shichun took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Chen Chong, and said: "This is what I sorted out. In the past two years, the big and small events that happened in the court, as well as the gains and losses of the King of Shu's family in these events, Brother Chen Let's take a look."
Chen Chong glanced at him before looking at the note in his hand.
"The layout of the Cui family in the imperial court for decades has almost been destroyed in the past two years. His Highness King Shu's current advantage is that he is the eldest son of the imperial concubine Cui Guifei... and he is the only eldest son of the emperor. identity."
Zeng Shichun's eyes drifted slightly, and he said slowly: "It's a pity, including the Cui family and the imperial concubine, everyone is blinded by this identity. They seem to have forgotten that the final decision on this matter is Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty's attitude towards the King of Shu is really not the attitude towards the eldest son of the emperor. Although what His Majesty did was too muddled, he has been sent to Shu Prefecture for a year. His Majesty's dragon body is ill, and he would rather choose the eldest princess." , and not to call His Highness back... Zeng really can't figure it out."
"Gains and losses..." Chen Chong put down the note, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "I'm afraid there are only losses, not gains, right?"
…
Li Yi sent Ms. Chen Jiasan out of the hospital, and said: "There is still about one more month, and the imperial physician will check her pulse every few days. I just invited Master Tanyin to take a look at it yesterday. Everything is fine. You don't have to." Caring."
These days, he came here very rarely, but every time he ran into her.
"That's good." Miss Chen San nodded with a smile, saw the figure at the entrance of the alley, and said, "It's getting late, I'm going back."
Li Yi watched Chen Chong and her leave, and turned his gaze to Zeng Shichun who was standing aside.
"The last time I saw Qin Shangshu, he also said that the household department was busy, and Her Royal Highness took away another person, and he was a little too busy..." Li Yi looked at him, wondering: "Zeng Shilang is so interested every day, it seems , doesn't look like he's very busy."
Zeng Shichun smiled slightly, but he didn't care, and said, "This time, I'm specially waiting for Li County Marquis."
"Wait for me?" Li Yi looked at him in surprise.
Zeng Shichun looked at him, stretched out his hand to the side, and said, "I wonder if Hou Fang of Li County is not convenient for the teahouse to talk about it?"
The Zeng family was firmly in the lineage of the King of Shu, and although they could not be said to be life and death enemies, they were definitely not friends either.
If there was anything to do with it, it was because he ate his own dumpling and didn't pay for it.
The dumplings made by Hou in Chang'an County are not worth a cup of tea, right
Although the price of this cup of clear tea is not low, this teahouse is run by the family. Although it is expensive, it only sells a style. As for the cost... it is not enough to compare with outsiders.
