In the provincial political hall of the Zhongshu Provincial Government in the Luoyang Palace in the eastern capital, the three prime ministers sat on both sides of the long case, carefully considering the music of various places.

Zhang Jiuling and Pei Yaoqing were in charge of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province respectively, and sat opposite each other, while Li Linfu sat under Zhang Jiuling. However, none of the five minor officials who served under the Zhongshu Sect dared to underestimate Li Linfu.

Since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it has always been rare to have three prime ministers in the political hall, and the most famous one of those years, Zhang said that he inserted a bar between Zhang Jiazhen and Yuan Qianyao and drove Zhang Jiazhen out of the political hall. And now, if it weren't for Zhang Jiuling and Pei Yaoqing's relationship with each other, maybe they would have been caught up by Li Linfu long ago. This scholar of the Ministry of Rites and the third rank of the same Chinese book, the number of times he has been summoned by the Son of Heaven is not inferior to Zhang Pei and the others!

"It's Shuo Fang Du Junli's recital."

The small officials under the door of the Chinese book have always been classified according to the counties of the world, among them, the major border towns are another stall. Because Shuo Fang had just changed generals, Zhang Jiuling was naturally most concerned about this, and when he saw Du Shiyi's recital, he picked it out first, and after sweeping it with a glance and ten lines, he happily handed it to Pei Yaoqing on the opposite side: "Huanzhi, take a look." ”

Li Linfu was not at all silent about Zhang Jiuling's habitual move, and did not care about his reluctance, preferring to hand it to Pei Yaoqing first through a long case, but stared thoughtfully at the other piece of paper in his hand, as if he was extremely focused. waited until Pei Yaoqing read it and ordered someone to give it to him, and after he took it in his hand, he carefully browsed it. Although his face was not moving, but in the face of the content, he was secretly angry, and he was so deep that he only laughed at the end.

"Sure enough, it is worthy of Du Junli, after taking office, these shogunate officials who let Li Yi reuse turn against him, this Ye Wenjun's popularity is too bad!" After Li Linfu stabbed a pun, he said lightly, "It's just that when Shengyan led the crowd to lead Ye Wenjun to be responsible for his past crimes, but Du Junli played his negligence, he is not afraid of provoking the anger of the next day?" ”

"As a judge of the festival, he is the envoy of the festival, and it is also within his duty to supervise the civil and military affairs, Ye Wenjun's bad deeds are not a day, and he is naturally guilty of negligence when he comes to Shengyan, and Du Junli's performance is not an exaggeration." Pei Yaoqing gently tapped the table with his middle finger, and then said with his chin, "It's not the first time that Du Junli has taken charge alone, so he shouldn't easily provoke a rebound from his lower head, and he has cut the rank of a saintly official, and he has made meritorious service to the judge of the school in white, this kind of punishment is just right, and it is also a warning for other civil and military forces in Shuo Fang." ”

"Yes, the shogunate officials of the festival are civilians, and the effect of killing one is good, plus most of the generals are stubborn, if you rashly start from the army, it will only provoke mutiny. Du Junli's move is safe, and his performance is also fine, so he will be punished according to his performance. Zhang Jiuling also expressed his support for Du Shiyi's move.

Seeing that Zhang Pei and the others had a clear attitude, Li Linfu naturally had nothing to say. Sure enough, when they met the Son of Heaven, Li Longji had no objection to what Du Shiyi played, and even if he instructed Sun Ti, a scholar from the middle school, to prepare a custom book, the door passed in a moment, and it was actually sent to Shuofang on the same day. But when he returned home in the evening, Li Linfu no longer had the smiling expression in front of people, and his gloomy face was extremely terrifying.

Others don't know what's going on between Li Yi, the king of Xin'an, and Wu Wenyan, but he has long been clear. It was Wu Wenyan's messenger who coveted the master's reward, and in order to be able to go back to the business, he lured Li Yi's convinced secretary Ye Wenjun to fake Li Yi's letter, and after the incident, he took Li Yi with him. That King Xin'an knew that the Tao was inviolable, and he didn't make a defense, but the first thing Du Shiyi did after taking over as Shuo Fangjiedu's envoy was to directly find so many charges and send Ye Wenjun directly, which was obviously to show favor to Li Yi and his old department!

Moreover, after more than ten days of taking office, he let Shengyan, who was trusted by Li Yi, return to his heart, not only came to Shengyan together with others, but also had no complaints about cutting his official rank, and gave Du Shiyi room to ask for credit for him one day. This kind of combination of soft and hard means is really perfect!

"I didn't expect that in the land of Shuofang tigers and wolves, Du Jiujiu would still be able to play with ease! However, civil officials are easy to surrender, and military generals are difficult to convince! ”

After muttering to himself in his own study, Li Linfu called a confidant scholar and ordered him to write a letter, and when he was tightly sealed, he called another servant and handed the letter over: "Immediately hurry up and send it to Shuofang Lingzhou!" ”

The servant often ran this line, put the letter in his arms and hid it closely, and then asked: "The family man has to wait for his reply." ”

Li Linfu shook his head without thinking about it and said: "Without his palindrome, even if you write 10,000 words, it is not as important as a real success." ”

The servant left in response, and after a while, a voice came from outside the door again: "Jiaweng, the heir of the Chu State Office came to report the news, saying that he was happy with his noble son, and if he was free, he would go to eat and drink in three days!" ”

Since he completely hooked up on Concubine Hui's line, Li Linfu didn't need Jiang Du's mother, Mrs. Chu Guo, to match him, and he was now in a high position, although Jiang Du was a cousin, but he only had an idle official position, and he might not have time to pay attention to it. However, although Jiang Du is a good person, sometimes his vision is quite sharp, and the most important thing is that Jiang Du and Du Shiyi have always maintained a certain contact, and he also needs this cousin to find out some news for him. Therefore, Li Linfu only pondered for a moment, and then said loudly: "Reply to the heir of Chu Guogong, just say that I will definitely be present at that time." ”

The rod killed Wu Wenyan, and at the same time connected many ministers, among whom there were even clans such as Li Yi, the king of Xin'an, and Li Chenghong, the king of Guangwu, and some trends in the court seemed to be temporarily curbed. However, the undercurrent in the palace has not subsided in the slightest. The Son of Heaven killed Wu Wenyan, which made the crown prince Li Hong seem to see a glimmer of hope, but so many people were connected, but Concubine Wu Hui did not move, which simply disappointed Li Hong.

And Concubine Wu Hui, who did not hurt her muscles and bones, seemed to have stopped all the actions of Huo Huo to the East Palace in the past, as if she was disheartened.

On this day, Shouwang Li Qing and Shou Princess Yunu jointly visited, she met her son and daughter-in-law with a smiling face, and greeted them for a while. She was going to urge Li Qing to go with her, but Li Qing squirmed and said that she had something to say to her, so she had to send her henchman Yaoguang to serve Yu Nu and wait for her to leave, so she lowered her face and shouted to her son: "There are so many eldest princesses, only Yu Zhen is the most favored and trusted by His Majesty, and it is your aunt, you should accompany the Yang family to see her, why do you push back and hinder?" ”

"A-Niang, Taizhen and her master used to get along day and night, and now after marriage, maybe there is something private to say, what am I doing there?" Concubine Wu Hui's face paleated a little when she said this, and Li Qing knelt down beside Concubine Wu Hui with a smile on her face, "A-Niang, I have good news for you, you have to have one more grandchild." ”

"What!" Concubine Wu Hui was taken aback, and then she was surprised and delighted, "So fast? Yang has only been over for more than a month, which imperial doctor has diagnosed it? Can you tell if it's a man or a woman so early? ”

Faced with his mother's reaction, Li Qing couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He coughed dryly, and then whispered: "It's not too true, it's a concubine in the palace......"

Before she finished speaking, Concubine Wu Hui was furious: "Nonsense! I worked hard to marry the Yang family for you, and you still have the heart to only care about those concubines here? ”

"A-Niang, Taizhen was calm after hearing about it, what are you annoyed about!" Li Qing was suddenly unhappy, "Even if it is the eldest son, it is also my son." Didn't Grandpa never have a son-in-law before? ”

Concubine Wu Hui panicked when she said this, but when she heard that Yu Nu was calm, she finally smoothed the tone in her heart, but she still couldn't help but hate her son for a long time. Li Qing was only on his face, but he was very disapproving in his heart. Yunu's favorite thing is not the rhythm or the score, he and her can't talk about it at all, but fortunately, he doesn't care about him, and he doesn't care about it, so he naturally doesn't care. Although Heng and Vertical are husband and wife, everyone has their own way, but they are also at ease. By the time he slipped out of his mother's pretext to see King Ning and Princess Ning, the adoptive father and adoptive mother, he had already left the jade slave behind.

And Concubine Wu Hui sent her son away, and her face sank suddenly. She really doesn't know what to do, she has worked hard to keep this first son, and King Ning and his wife have spared no effort to take care of her, but how did Li Qing become such an unsuccessful appearance? Even if you make a harmonious appearance and show Princess Yuzhen, at present, it is obviously no harm but benefit!

After more than a month, when I saw Yunu again, and saw that her hair bun style was all a married woman, Princess Yuzhen only felt that she couldn't say anything in her heart. Today, she specially brought Princess Gu'an into the palace together, and it was when she learned that Li Qing would enter the palace to see Concubine Hui, and she made up her mind to meet her beloved disciple. But now that the jade slave is here, Li Qing doesn't even see a shadow, and she doesn't have much affection for this nephew, who can be regarded as half a son-in-law. Seeing that Princess Gu'an pulled someone in front of her to look at and question, and Yunu was smiling as before, as if there had been no change at all, she couldn't help but feel even more distressed.

"What did he do to you?"

"Shizun doesn't have to worry about me, I have already told Eighteen Lang that I can go out of the house to see you at any time in the future." Yunu winked playfully as he spoke, secretly thinking that I wouldn't tell Shizun that it was because his concubine had a son who was overjoyed, and I took the opportunity to propose this quid pro quo, and he agreed without even thinking about it. Seeing that Princess Yuzhen was really overjoyed and didn't care about anything else, she naturally coaxed many other words, and didn't pay attention to Princess Gu'an on the side looking at their master and apprentice thoughtfully.

After this short reunion, Princess Gu'an went out of the palace with Princess Yuzhen and returned to the Taoist Temple of Anguo, and after resigning Princess Yuzhen and returning to her residence, she said to Zhang Yao: "It seems that Shouwang Li Qing and Yunu are only afraid that they will not agree with each other, and they will not be able to go together. At the beginning, the Yang family was all looking at this wealth, and the jade slaves refused to die for them, but now that the matter has come to this point, there are examples of Gongsun in front of them, and the Yang family also got what they wanted, and it was easier to convince her. Now let's add a fire to Concubine Hui! You go to Chibi and ask him to try to find a supernatural Taoist priest to recommend to His Majesty, and then let the Taoist priest say that His Majesty is favored by heaven, and he has the longest lifespan among the sons of heaven in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that there are still thirty years of life! ”

Zhang Yao took the order and left, and only returned at dusk, and said that Chibi had already been ordered, but at this moment, Huo Qing's voice suddenly came from outside.

"Your lord is here? The 100,000 servants of the Wangwu Mountain Balcony Viewing Sima Sect Master rushed over, saying that the sect master was invited! ”
