As soon as this thought came to her, Li Xian's position on Lin Feixing also changed in a way she didn't even notice.
Since the death of Empress Wen Huiduan, Li Xian has developed the habit of mastering everything and planning everything by herself, but after listening to Lin Feixing's words, she suddenly felt that it seemed a bit underpowered to just position Lin Feixing as a "chess piece". Share some information on the northern border with Lin Feixing, maybe he can grow more rapidly, and maybe give himself some valuable advice!
As soon as the "Brilliant Box" incident came out, all the evidence pointed to Xiao Ci, the confidant who had grown up by her side. Although Li Xian didn't believe it, she also understood that as this game of chess got bigger and bigger, she The people around me also started to be "unclean".
There are really too few people who can "help" him these days, and this Lin Feixing should be counted as one.
Li Xian thought for a while, and for the first time faced Lin Feixing with an equal attitude and a common position, and said, "Since the concubine is open and honest, I will also share my thoughts, this is not the time for you to go back, it was yesterday that the concubine You encountered an assassin in the Prince’s Mansion, and the assassin threw you a golden box. Although I have managed to suppress this matter for the time being, don’t forget that Li Guo is the emperor’s father’s world. The shore is not a royal minister; the father and the emperor will know sooner or later, the people behind this plan are very vicious, and they can be said to have foresight. He has already entered the palace to report to the empress, and the royal father will know about it in the future, and the middle palace will also mediate in it; the prince can also infer that "there is no danger", and he does not want to make the father worry and other words that make matters small, but the people behind this Use this brocade box to divide you and me, in order to force you to go back to the North, not to mention whether you can go back safely, but one day, the emperor found out about this, and the assassin threw a brocade box for you. You will go back to the north on the second day, what do you think the emperor will think?"
Lin Wanyue looked at Li Xian, her lips parted slightly: She had never thought of these things.
Li Xian took a breath and continued, "Also, now that Brother Yong is in charge of the Northern Territory's handsome seal, he is of the royal bloodline, so he can naturally suppress the murky waters in the Northern Territory, but if you go back, what will Brother Yong think? ?You are the concubine, and you can be considered a royal family. You still have what he doesn't have: connections in the north, military achievements and prestige; I know the temperament of Brother Yong the most. Oh, have you forgotten that you drove away the long history of Prince Yong's mansion in the north? He is not the kind of timid Gao Deyi, if he uses Gao Deyi's method to send you out of the city and doesn't send reinforcements to save you, Do you think you still have your life to come back? Even if you are lucky enough to come back, he can still charge you with a crime to save you! If you are unfortunate enough to die in battle, he will have his own words to deal with the father. He is the father and son of the father. A few sentences, or a token punishment, that's all; you're dead in vain."
After listening to Li Xian's words, Lin Wanyue burst into tears: "I..."
"Concubine, do you understand that since the day you and I were married, we have become one body. Even if you have no intention of plotting power, others will put you in the East Palace party. Do you know how many people want to kill you? In their eyes, although it is not what they want to see King Yong in charge of the Northern Territory Shuaiyin, it is better than yours in charge of the handsome seal. The two disadvantages are balanced and the lesser one is; Brother Yong's mother and concubine are not favored, and he does not have it either. The talent of governing the country, the father emperor is not confused, and others also understand that even if he gets the military power in the north, he will only be a vassal king in the end, but Pearl is justified, growing up day by day, you are my concubine, they It's impossible to watch the East Palace grow bigger!"
Seeing Lin Feixing's enlightenment, Li Xian felt a lot of relief in her heart: "I can't tell you everything, but I hope the situation will happen again in the future, and the concubine can understand."
"it is good!"
Li Xian nodded, and added, "I know that I owe you for dragging you down this turbulent water. After a while, the Concubine's House will be built, and you can move there, even if you are raising a child in the house, As long as I don't say it, no one will care, and you can put all the expenses on the account of the Princess Chang's residence; when the big event is done in another day, I will give you back your freedom."
Li Xian finally said what she was holding in her heart, and secretly said in her heart: When Pearl is on the Dabao, I can also live my own life.
Lin Wanyue "Huo" stood up from her seat. In fact, Li Xian's proposal was the best outcome for Lin Wanyue, who was a woman. Fulfilling his wish, retiring from the imperial court, relinquishing military power, leaving the palace, choosing a place with beautiful scenery, and living in safety, isn't this the life that Lin Wanyue longed for from the very beginning
But when this day really came, when these words came out of Li Xian's mouth, Lin Wanyue's heart was filled with indescribable feelings.
"No need!" Lin Wanyue got up, picked up the lonely man standing by the door, and walked out of the main hall angrily.
Li Xian looked at the back of Lin Feixing leaving, and her mood was complicated. She knew Lin Feixing's love for her, but she couldn't respond...
Li Xian chased to the door and watched Lin Feixing enter her bedroom. She closed the door with a "bang" and showed a wry smile. Lin Feixing felt awkward... It really made her unable to resist.
Li Xian walked to the entrance of the small courtyard. She still had a lot of things to do. It took most of the day to deal with Lin Feixing's side. She still had to track down the follow-up matters.
"Find someone to watch the concubine, and don't allow him to step out of the princess' mansion."
"Yes."
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and Li Xian deliberately let the limelight out, so that people who care about it "know", that night, many carrier pigeons, fast horses, rushed out of Tiandu City, and they all carried a common message: the eldest princess The whereabouts of the female official in charge of the government, Xiao Ci, are unknown, and the consort Malin Feixing is placed under house arrest.
Li Xian carefully read all the silk newspapers from beginning to end, and then found a brocade box to put the silk cloths away and put them in the dark compartment of the study.
She took the latest silk paper from one party: His Highness's Mirror, the assassins have all been killed, and the subordinates found that these assassins did not have tongues.
Who the assassin was, the shadow didn't find out, but Li Xian knew it.
Li Xian picked up another silk newspaper, it was from the north.
After reading the above content, Li Xian's mood could not be calm for a long time: I didn't expect that Lin Feixing could predict the situation in the north first.
The newspaper said that since King Yong arrived in the north, Gao Deyi and Zhong Liangjun have become more honest, and the evil spirits in the north have been deterred.
At the same time, Li Xian also got the most accurate information from the inside of the Xiongnu. The inside of the Xiongnu was indeed as Lin Feixing said. They invited out the Maodun Department from the deepest part of the grassland. The soldiers and horses of the army, even the idle small tribes will come together, and the situation in the north is in danger.
At the end of the silk paper, "Mansha" was specifically mentioned, the female khan who rose to prominence on the Xiongnu steppe a few years ago through the downfall of the Tuketu tribe and some other factors.
Along with the changes in the Maodun Department, the tribe of the Mansha Khan is also changing.
Li Xian's brows were furrowed. Who was interfering in the north
There is a smoke and rain building in the south, is there also a situation in the north
Li Xian raised her slender hand against her forehead, looking exhausted.
"Little Ci."
Hearing Li Xian's call, Ah Yin, who was standing outside the door, replied, "Your Highness, your servant Ah Yin."
Only then did Li Xian remember that Xiaoci had been locked in the darkroom by herself.
"Come in."
A Yin pushed open the door and came in, far away from Li Xian's bookcase, and hit Wan Fu: "What is your Highness?"
"Go and call Liuli."
"Yes."
After a while, a maid walked in, wearing the clothes of a rough maid, with a thin body and a short stature, and knelt in front of Li Xian in a regular manner: "Slave Liuli, see Your Highness."
Ah Yin closed the door from the outside, followed the rules and walked twenty steps away to guard.
Li Xian looked at the person kneeling in front of her and said softly, "Is it clean?"
The maid named Liuli shrank her body, her Zhao Feng ears moved, and replied, "Within fifty steps, there is only A Yin."
Li Xian smiled sweetly: "Get up."
"How did His Highness summon him in person today? Where is Xiaoci?"
"Going into the darkroom, at an emergency, this palace doesn't want to fake the hands of the two of them."
"Oh." Liuli nodded with a clear look on his face.
"Is there a letter from there recently?"
"Yes, a letter arrived yesterday, but Xiaoci didn't come to get it, but his subordinates brought it."
Saying that, Liuli took out a box from his arms: "Your Highness, don't be impatient, Xiaoci didn't come yesterday, and it hasn't been opened yet!"
"Um."
Liuli placed the box on Li Xian's desk generously, and saw that there was a nine-square grid on the top of the brocade box, but there were only eight pieces on it. Liuli's fingers moved quickly, and only the sound of "click" could be heard. Li Xian kept staring at Liuli's fingers. Seeing that the eight squares on the nine-square grid moved quickly with Liuli's fingers, Li Xian was dazzled, but she couldn't grasp the joints.
With a "click", Liuli grinned, revealing a row of millet teeth: "Your Highness, the key."
Li Xian took out what she had prepared early in the morning. It was a red square hard object. Looking carefully, there was a word "medicine" branded in the center of the hard object.
Li Xian placed the block in the center of the nine-square grid, and with a "click", the other eight wooden blocks sank, and the box opened.
Li Xian took out the letter inside and did not open it. She asked with a smile, "What would happen if this box was forcibly opened?"
"It will emit poisonous fumes, and no human or animal will be able to live within ten steps, and the contents inside will also be contaminated by poisons, which will kill you if you touch it."
"This box is ingenious, can you tell me about it?"
"Each picture of this box has a different solution. You can't go wrong with one step. The average person needs ten years of work, but His Royal Highness Bingxue is smart, and it may only take five years."
Hearing Liuli say that, Li Xian pouted.
Liuli smiled again and continued: "But this box does not have the unique key in His Highness's hand, and no matter how much his subordinates fiddle with it, it cannot be opened."
"Okay, you go down first."
"Yes."
Liuli left the room, and Li Xian opened the envelope. There were only four words on it: Meet and discuss in detail.
