With thin anger, he said: "If something like this happens again, I won't let you off so easily."
Yu Linglong brushed back the broken hair on her temples, and said with a smile: "Then who knows, your sister is considerate of you and gave you two singers, I can't stop them from doing so. What's more, if the prince likes you Woolen cloth-"
Jun's face suddenly sank, Xu Wang said: "How dare you say that?"
Only then did Yu Linglong stop talking, but there was still a smile on her face that she couldn't hide: "What did you do with those two women?"
Xu Wang said indifferently: "Still kneeling outside the study."
These two women had been running under his window to make noise all morning, but they still felt that their voices were the most beautiful. They almost started a fighting song competition outside the study room. After yelling, she stopped, and quickly knelt outside the study, begging King Xu to forgive her with all kinds of coquettishness.
Xu Wang was too lazy to entangle with these two women, and was annoyed by the quarrel, so he simply turned out of the back window and went straight to the backyard to look for Yu Linglong.
And those two women thought that Xu Wang stayed in the study and did not come out, and they were kneeling in the yard trembling, coquettishly coquettishly rushing towards the empty study.
Yu Linglong's brows were crooked when she heard this, and she couldn't help smiling all over her face. She knew that Xu Wang would not be able to treat these two women well, but she never thought that Xu Wang would be so merciless.
Mentioning those two noisy women made King Xu feel annoyed. He stretched out his hand and squeezed Yu Linglong's face that could barely pinch water, and said in a deep voice: "In the future, if there are such women, they will all be sent away by this king. Already!"
Yu Linglong smiled at Qianxi, and replied in a good mood: "Yes, my lord, I obey my orders!"
The two hugged and leaned on the couch, bickering for fun, and the room was filled with a warm and sweet atmosphere.
However, others were not in such a good mood.
The next morning, Zhao Liandeng's family reported to Yu Linglong back and forth: "... two girls, Ruyan and Wanqing, started to have a high fever in the middle of the night last night. The maidservant has already invited a doctor to come in for diagnosis and treatment. I heard that the wind and cold entered the body."
Yes, in this kind of weather, the two singers only wore thin clothes and knelt outside the study for a whole day.
Through the window, Yu Linglong said impatiently: "It's been less than two days since I entered the mansion, where did the wind and cold enter the body? According to my opinion, it must be that they have some evil disease on their bodies! Send my order, and immediately prepare a car to take them away. Sending back to Princess Pingyang's Mansion, Xu Wang's Mansion dare not take in people who are said to have evil diseases."
Knowing that his concubine said one thing, Zhao Liandeng's family hurriedly agreed and went down to make arrangements.
I just feel sorry for the two beautiful singers who are as beautiful as flowers and jade. They have never even seen what Xu Wang looks like, so they were sent out of Xu Wang's mansion.
As for how Princess Pingyang will deal with these two girls who can only sing, it is none of her business.
…
The winter solstice is approaching, and because various disasters such as drought and locusts have befallen the capital this year, the emperor ordered that the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven should be extraordinarily grand, and specified that the crown prince would be in charge of it himself.
Naturally, the prince did not dare to be negligent, he must do everything personally, and no mistakes are allowed in anything. Although the prince is not very popular in the court at this time, no one dares to slack off such a big event as the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and everything is going on in full swing.
On this day, the mage to be selected for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is of great importance, and the prince decided to select it himself to ensure nothing goes wrong.
Early in the morning, the prince took people to the Xipei Hall. There were already dozens of mages waiting in the hall. Seriously.
Seeing the prince entered the hall, everyone stood up to salute, but they did not kneel down and kept a certain distance from each other, which seemed somewhat mysterious.
The prince asked the people one by one, and then selected ten monks and ten Taoist priests as the imperial masters on the day of offering sacrifices to heaven.
After making the decision, the prince walked out of the hall, but before reaching the door, he heard a deep voice behind him: "Your Highness, please stay."
163 Push nose to face
In the silent hall, such an abrupt voice suddenly sounded, even though all the people present were real mages with good practice, they were still a little surprised.
The prince paused, turned around slowly, and looked at the man who dared to speak out to keep him.
I saw the man in front of me who was nearly forty years old, wearing a blue-gray Taoist robe, full of heaven, with a bold nose, dressed in the same way as other Taoist priests, and his appearance was not outstanding, but if you look carefully If you observe him, you will find that there is a faint aura exuding from his whole body. Although the eyelids seem to be half-drooped respectfully, they can't hide the sharp light.
For a moment, all eyes in Xipei Hall were on him.
The prince looked at the Taoist priest in front of him, but he didn't get angry, he just said lightly: "I don't know what advice you can give me?"
The Taoist bowed to the prince, and said in a deep voice: "The face of His Highness Poor Taoist Temple, the black air in the seal hall is lingering, I am afraid that your future in the next year will be gloomy and unpredictable—"
Before he finished speaking, the prince's entourage couldn't help shouting: "Presumptuous! Your Highness is a dignified prince, the heir of the country, how could the future be gloomy? You stop talking nonsense, don't you want your head? "
The Taoist priest looked straight at the prince as if he hadn't heard of it, and continued: "The poor Taoist is willing to help His Highness to resolve the immediate crisis."
He paused, and said in a low voice: "If not, I'm afraid this day will change."
Looking at his determined and calm gaze, the prince's heart trembled involuntarily.
The words of this Taoist priest undoubtedly touched the deepest pain in his heart. In front of everyone, he is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who responds to everyone. In the future, he will be crowned a great treasure and benefit the world, but only he himself knows the taste of being too cold at a high place. This seat is not so easy to sit on.
Not to mention that the other princes are all excellent, even the youngest Xu Wang is highly regarded by the emperor. He tried to get rid of it several times, but he always missed the move, and instead pushed the opponent to the peak, even the emperor began to fight. Suspicious of the prince, and more and more dependent on Xu Wang.
The reform not long ago made him offend most of the officials in the court. Even the concubines in the harem complained. He had many eyes and ears, and he knew that those concubines often spoke ill of him in front of the emperor. He hasn't been punished yet, but his heart is becoming more and more disturbed.
And the Taoist's words undoubtedly hit his heart.
Thought like this in his heart, the Prince's face remained unchanged, and he smiled casually: "Oh? You want to help me? I don't know if you can call the wind and call the rain, or you can turn beans into soldiers? If you don't have any skills, why should I trust you? ?”
There are too many people who want to curry favor with him, and it is impossible for him to come and accept one by one. Maybe, this Taoist priest is just a swindler who wants to take advantage of the power of the prince to eat and drink.
The Taoist smiled slightly: "Evil and evil techniques will not be able to make a big impact after all. Pindao has never learned such sorcery."
Hearing such a straightforward answer from him, the people around the prince couldn't help laughing: "What are you talking about sorcery, obviously you don't know anything, right? If you want to hit the autumn wind, it will hit His Highness on the head, aren't you tired of working!?"
Facing the sarcasm from others, the Taoist just turned a deaf ear to it. He walked up to the prince and said a word in a voice that only two people could hear.
It was these words that caused the prince's face to change suddenly.
"If His Highness is willing to believe in Pindao, Pindao will help His Highness to sit on the seat above ten thousand people within a year!"
The prince is now under one person and above ten thousand people. If the one under one person is removed, what kind of position is it
This temptation is too great, and what the prince needs most at this moment is such a person.
Even the prince who had been calm all this time couldn't help clenching his fists.
After a while, the prince said in a deep voice: "Bold, don't back down!"
After all, the prince didn't even say a word, turned and left with a sullen face.
After the prince left, the atmosphere in the side hall became more relaxed. Everyone looked at the Taoist priest who was reprimanded by the prince. Their eyes were complicated, with contempt, sarcasm, and disdain. Everyone thought the same: such a bold person deserves to be punished. The prince scolded!
But the Taoist priest didn't care about other people's eyes at all, and returned to his seat, closing his eyes and meditating.
The prince did not punish him in public, which meant that there was something to be said about this matter.
Sure enough, after a while, a seemingly ordinary guard walked up to him and said in a low voice, "Master Daoist, Your Highness welcomes you."
The Taoist stood up slowly, and the guard looked very respectful, and said, "I don't know what the Taoist name is called?"
On the contrary, he smiled slightly and replied softly: "Poverty Daoist, the Daoist name is Jingming."
…
The peaceful days were destined not to last long, and within a few days, another story happened in the Xu Palace.
It turned out to be Princess Pingyang, and this time she was even more arrogant, and directly carried a small sedan chair to the gate of Prince Xu's mansion, saying that it was a gift from Princess Pingyang to King Xu.
Yu Linglong looked at the high-spirited female official in Princess Pingyang's mansion, and was angry and funny at the same time.
The female official said the words of Princess Pingyang in detail with her eyes above her head, which meant nothing more than that since the two singers were sick last time, they sent them back. This answer has been checked by the imperial doctor himself, and she is absolutely healthy and free from all diseases, please accept it with a smile.
If it wasn't for sure that it was an individual, Yu Linglong would have thought that what she sent was a thousand-year-old ginseng to nourish King Xu's body after hearing the lady's bragging.
It's a pity that this gift not only fails to nourish the body, but also damages one's energy.
The lady officer is still there like a machine gun
