After watching Father Long struggle for a few moves in the end, and regretting a few moves shamelessly, he finally surrendered, but in the end he vented his anger on himself, complaining that it was his appearance that disrupted the game. It disrupted his train of thought, causing him to become distracted and lost to Xiao Shufei several times in a row.
Li Hong rolled his eyes helplessly. It sounded like what he said was true. Concubine Xiao Shu also talked to me. She talked more than you. Why didn't she see anyone distracted
As a filial son, of course he did not dare to say this openly. After a few words of curse in his heart, he shifted the topic to the Prince Wu's Mansion, which was about to be rebuilt after the spring of the first day of the Yuan Dynasty.
Li Zhi also silently approved and nodded to him. When I am in trouble, as a son, I should come out to help, right
Concubine Xiao Shu sat there, listening to what the father and son said to each other, almost praising Prince Wu's Mansion, which was now a pile of ruins, into flowers, but she still shook her head firmly and said nothing.
She has lived here all these years, but it is a place of quiet enlightenment for her to cultivate her moral character. When she thinks of leaving here, she still has some inseparable feelings in her heart.
Although there are high walls on all sides, the amount of sunlight that can be seen every day is extremely limited, especially in winter, when the days are short, and the bright sunshine always passes by in a hurry when it reaches the small courtyard, never willing to stay too long.
But even so, she has devoted too much emotion to this small courtyard over the years, especially since the Queen has come here before, and His Majesty occasionally spends a night here. This makes Concubine Xiao Shu really difficult to make a choice for a while.
Li Zhi glared at Li Hong and motioned for him to continue. After the first day, you little brat will go to Jiangnan. If you can't handle this, you might as well not go.
But how could Li Hong fully understand what Xiao Shufei meant
Originally, Concubine Xiao Shu had developed a calm, peaceful and far-reaching mind many years ago. Naturally, she didn't have much thought about the changes in the environment, not to mention her relationship with Li Zhi, which was constantly being sorted out and turned into chaos. It's a matter of fact, so even if Li Hong is a god, he can't fully understand Xiao Shufei's true thoughts.
For a moment, I really couldn't figure out how to persuade him, so I had to say: "Don't be surprised by the favor or disgrace, just watch the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court. I have no intention of leaving or leaving, just watch the clouds roll and relax in the sky. As the saying goes: 'I am happy to live, and I have no regrets to die.' The flowers are still blooming and the water is flowing. How can I rest in peace? The moon is bright and the breeze is carefree. So, my concubine, you lived in the Guanyun Palace back then, but now my father has planned for that... Well, after the Prince Wu's Mansion is rebuilt, it will be renamed Guiyun Pavilion. You have to understand my father's good intentions."
Concubine Xiao Shu rolled her eyes at Li Zhi, who glared at Li Hong, and said with a faint smile: "Hong'er, when did you learn to deceive me? You came to me, but you have never said anything against your heart. For your father, how can I even Want to deceive too? Then I heard that the reconstruction of Prince Wu's Mansion was for two foreign women, not for me. "
When Li Hong heard the meaning of Xiao Shufei's words, he thought that he had better not get involved. This was obviously not a matter of willingness or unwillingness, but that Xiao Shufei was jealous of Jin Rongqi and Zhang Lushui, so he still resorted to the thirty-sixth strategy. The best policy is the best.
I don’t know if Concubine Xiao Shu is having trouble with her mother or something, but she is unwilling to leave her small courtyard. Maybe she is afraid that living with Jin Rongqi and Zhang Lushui will lose her status
Li Hong once again ignored Father Long's stop and ran out of Concubine Xiao Shu's courtyard in a hurry. He also finished what he should do. The remaining things were matters between the older generation and he couldn't get involved blindly. Otherwise, it’s easy to get beaten by Dragon Mother.
After hurriedly coming out of the palace, he didn't even return to the East Palace. He just sent Banmei and Xunlan back to the East Palace, and then asked Mang Zhong and Cheetah to drive out of the imperial city in a carriage to meet his future father-in-law. Pei Xingjian ran to his home.
The snow on the streets of Chang'an has been cleared to both sides. The streets that had been clean for a day yesterday have returned to their usual bustle after the snow was cleared.
On the bustling streets lined with shops, hurried carriages, sedans on the shoulders of bearers, literati, and young ladies have all sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain. It is not difficult to imagine that at this moment, various temples, scenic spots, and scenery The area, as well as the most famous Qujiang Pool, must be crowded with people, full of scholars and scholars, looking at the white snow scenery, reciting poems and composing poems, pretending to be romantic figures.
What's different from usual is that at this time, everyone's face is less rushed and more festive and joyful. Obviously, as the New Year's Day gets closer and closer, people's inner joy becomes more and more. Coming heavier.
"Has Pei Wanying come back from Lantian? I heard that up to now, no mother is willing to go to their place to give birth to her baby. They all ask the doctor to come home?" Li Hong sat in the carriage and asked leisurely the drivers Manzhong and Cheetah.
"Yes, Your Highness, not to mention the mother, even for minor illnesses such as wind and cold, the people still want to invite doctors to their homes for treatment, but no one is willing to go. Even if Dr. Sun is here to consult, no one is willing to go to Lantian Hospital. See a doctor." Cheetah shook his head and felt that His Highness's approach was wrong.
After the completion of the Lantian Medical College, it is large in scale and covers a vast area. In addition to the college, there is also a building named the hospital. However, up to now, more doctors are invited to leave every day and fewer doctors are visited.
The medical fees and so on are not enough to support Lantian's expenses. It has always been Bai Chun who has been taken advantage of and pays a large amount of money every month to maintain the normal operation of Lantian Medical College.
"Then why don't you increase the doctor's fee for out-of-town consultations, so that more people will be willing to come? I still don't believe that they all have the money to pay, and after doubling the fee, they still hire doctors at home." Li Hong looked out the window angrily and said.
"Your Highness, it is said that it is not a matter of medical fees, but that the people feel unsafe. As soon as they enter, they are all wearing white coats. The people think it is unlucky to see a doctor inside. Plain clothes have always been worn only during funerals. Nowadays, everyone When entering Lantian Hospital, people always mistakenly think that someone is dead, so now Divine Doctor Sun is also having a headache." Mang Zhong drove the carriage and turned to look at the carriage behind him.
"Then Old Man Sun has never thought about quitting?" Li Hong was curious. Since it was so deserted, Old Man Sun should have closed his doors long ago.
"I don't know about this slave. There seems to be a reason, but I don't dare to ask about it." Mangzhong stopped the carriage, immediately jumped off the carriage and opened the door.
Pei Xingjian and his wife, as well as the servants of the family, stood in two rows at the door, solemnly waiting for the arrival of His Royal Highness.
Li Hong got off the carriage and looked at the unusual formation at the door. He laughed and said, "You welcome me to your home like this, which makes me feel a little embarrassed for coming here empty-handed." Li Hong spread his hands. , He said he was embarrassed, but his face showed no embarrassment at all.
A pair of eyes searched the two queues standing at the door for a long time, but did not see Pei Wanying, so he had to look at Pei Xingjian curiously, what do you mean? If it weren't for your daughter, I wouldn't have come. Oh, I'm here, and you've hidden your daughter
Pei Xingjian looked at Li Hong's originally smiling face and fell down. Having lived with the prince for four or five years, he naturally knew the prince's temperament. He smiled bitterly and said, "I hope your highness will forgive me. Although I don't know that my daughter and you are now No matter what, the little girl is still waiting in the boudoir. If she stands at the door to greet her, it will make people laugh. "
"Neither can I?" Li Hong asked.
"No one can do it." Pei Xingjian said firmly, but he just added in his heart: "No one can do it except you."
As Pei Xingjian walked into the main hall, he saw Hua Meng and Jingzhe. As for Pei Wanying's figure, she still didn't know where Pei Xingjian had hidden her.
Facing the questioning look in Li Hong's eyes, Hua Meng and Jingzhe didn't know what to do. Therefore, the two of them did not dare to snitch for His Highness the Crown Prince's relationship with Miss Pei. Now Miss Pei is in the boudoir.
What's more, Mr. Pei told Miss Pei today: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here today, but you have to act like a lady. You can't flirt with the Crown Prince in front of your mother when I'm not at home."
After saying this, Pei Wanying's face turned red and she hid in her boudoir. She said she would not come out. She just waited for Li Hong to come and see if her father would let her go out.
After the two sides sat down, Mrs. Pei naturally had to do everything herself. Although His Highness the Crown Prince often came to the house, in her heart, she regarded Li Hong as half a son-in-law, but the Crown Prince was the Crown Prince, even if he went home eight times a day, The etiquette you should have is also indispensable.
"Your Highness will leave Chang'an after Yuan Ri, so I invite Your Highness to come to my humble residence. Firstly, I want to thank His Highness for promoting me. Secondly, I want to thank Your Highness for taking care of my little daughter and my humble wife. I am really grateful to have received such kindness from Your Highness. I will definitely not disappoint His Highness. Whether it is for me, the Tang Dynasty, or for His Highness, I will devote myself to death." Pei Xingjian stroked his beard and said solemnly.
"It's good to know that after I leave Chang'an, I think it won't be too quiet when I come to the court. What should come will still come. All this needs to be controlled by you and Ji Yuanzong. But we won't talk about court affairs today. We're just talking about private matters, so be it, you can keep busy while I wander around." Erpilian waved his hand and, ignoring the astonishment on his master's face, walked straight out of the main hall and towards his daughter's boudoir in the backyard.
"this… ."
Pei Xingjian stood at the door of the hall, looking at the prince who was more familiar with the direction of Pei Wanying's boudoir than he was. He stretched out his arms and wanted to stop him, but he didn't know how to stop him. And even if he was stopped, he would attack His Highness the prince like this. Do you want to listen
