Thinking about this, Yang Ze hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, this official is here to find the king of Linzi, it is a private matter, just because he didn't find the prince in the Linzi palace, he came to the palace of the king of Xiang, not to announce the decree." ”

When the guards heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, but the frightened expression on their faces did not ease anything, and the leading guard asked cautiously, "Did His Majesty order Lord Yang to find the King of Linzi?" But what is the purpose? ”

Yang Ze said: "It's the matter of Lord Yuwen's family, that is, Lord Yuwen Wuluo, who will be the prisoner, has nothing to do with King Linzi, the lower official just came to tell him, the affairs of Lord Yuwen's family are done, it must have been ordered by His Majesty Xià himself, so this official has to come, otherwise Lord Yuwen himself can tell King Linzi that it is okay, you must not misunderstand anything!" ”

The guards breathed a sigh of relief in unison, the frightened expressions on their faces disappeared, and they all felt relieved, as long as it was not about the King of Xiang and the King of Linzi, and the affairs of other people's families had nothing to do with them, then they would be fine!

The leading guard hurriedly said: "Please come into the living room for tea, and then go to the back to pass the ceremony, and my old prince and little prince will come out, and I won't let Lord Yang wait for a long time." The tone was very polite, and there was no arrogant expression like the palace guards.

Yang Ze thought to himself: "It's really polite, I've seen so many big people, this is the first time that I was directly invited into the living room for tea, it seems that King Xiang is really mixed in the court!" ”

He followed the guards into the flower hall, and the leading guards ran to the back house to tell King Xiang and Li Zhenglong.

In the back house, Li Zhenglong was sitting in the bedroom with his father, King Xiang and Princess Xiang, waiting to hear the doctor's diagnosis. Li Zhenglong had already told King Xiang about the affairs of the Yuwen family, but King Xiang didn't care much, he just cared about the family's condition.

King Xiang is the third son of Empress Dugu, and his first two elder brothers were cleaned up by his mother, Empress Dugu, and were sent to remote and barren places. He is the eldest prince to stay in Beijing, and the only reason why he can stay in Beijing is because he has a cowardly personality, standing aside for everything, and not participating in anything, Empress Dugu said that he didn't dare to go west, and even locked himself in the palace and didn't dare to go out, a son of his character is no threat to his mother and empress. Therefore, the empress did not value him, but she did not repair him, on the contrary, she treated him well, and gave him a lot of food and clothing.

Although King Xiang lived a comfortable life at home, he was not too ideal in terms of heirs, and in the era of many sons and blessings, he also wanted to have children and grandchildren. But few of his children survived to adulthood.

Last year, the prime minister took a concubine, and this concubine gave birth to a daughter for him, who is now eight months old. The old woman is very cherished by the king and suffers like a baby, but this little daughter is sick. And I've been sick for three days, which makes King Xiang feel distressed!

There is a reason why King Xiang loves this little daughter, first, he is an old woman. Second, among his children, only Li Zhenglong lived to adulthood, he experienced the pain of losing children and daughters several times, and now he finally has a little daughter, it is estimated that it is difficult for him to give birth to a child in this life, so how can it not be precious, as soon as the little daughter was born, the little concubine died of illness, and the little daughter had no biological mother, which also made him more compassionate.

Princess Xiang is not a jealous person, she is also old, she treats the little baby girl as if she is her own daughter, and raises her by her side, the little daughter is so sick, she is also anxious, the old couple values the little daughter so much, Li Zhenglong also values the little sister, I heard that the little sister is sick, and he can't take care of the affairs of the Yuwen family, so he hurriedly came to visit and talk to his parents.

Li Zhenglong said: "Don't worry, father, queen and mother, my little sister's illness must be seen well." ”

King Xiang's face was full of sadness, and he said: "Seeing Xiaocao like this, my father thinks of your brothers and sisters, and I am afraid that something will happen to her!" ”

Because he cherished his little daughter and was afraid that something would happen to his little daughter, according to the folk customs of the Dafang Empire, King Xiang named his little daughter Xiaocao, to show that this little daughter's life was as cheap as grass, and hoped that Lord Yama would not come to find trouble with Xiaocao.

Princess Xiang wiped her tears and said, "Don't mention those children, don't mention those children, they are blessed and have a short life, and it is providential that they can't keep them, but I just hope that Xiaocao won't do the same." Looking at her appearance, her heart is broken, although the youngest daughter is not her own, but in her heart, she is no different from her own.

Li Zhenglong sighed in his heart, but he had nothing to do, so he could only wait for the doctor's diagnosis.

At this time, a guard outside the door came to report, saying that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple asked to see him and came to find the king of Linzi.

As soon as he heard the name of Dali Temple, King Xiang suddenly stood up from the chair, he was most afraid of the people of Dali Temple, the officials of Dali Temple came to the door, there has never been a good thing, especially Dali Temple is now in the hands of his sister eldest princess, then there is no good thing!

The king of Xiang was so frightened that his face was colorless, and he said: "This, this is really a blessing and a disaster, and the disaster is not a single line, what are the people of Dali Temple looking for this king for?" ”

Li Zhenglong hurriedly said: "Father, don't panic, didn't the guards say, then Yang Ze came to look for me, it is estimated that he went to me and did not find me, so he came to my father's place." He helped King Xiang to sit down again.

Princess Xiang was also so frightened that her whole body trembled, and said, "The young secretary of Dali Temple is called Yang Ze? What is he looking for you, and if he is looking for you, is it not the same as looking for your father? ”

Xiangwang and his wife are timid people, afraid of everything, especially the people of Dali Temple, and this reason comes from their fear of the eldest princess, who made the eldest princess want to be the female prince, and the stumbling block to become the female prince is not her brothers, the eldest brother and the second brother were kicked out of the field, and only King Xiang was left in the capital, isn't it her number one enemy.

Li Zhenglong strode out of the house and asked the guard, "What is the matter with him coming to this king?" ”

The guard hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't know, that Lord Yang said vaguely, only said that it was about Yuwen Wuluo's family, but the villain didn't know if he said it was true or not." ”

How dare the guards talk nonsense, and he really can't tell whether what Yang Ze said is true or false, of course he hopes it is true.

Li Zhenglong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It should be true, there has indeed been an accident in Yuwen Wuluo's house in the past two days." He turned and went into the house to comfort his parents. said that Yang Ze came to him may really be a matter of Yuwen Wuluo's family, so let his parents not worry, he will go out to have a look.

King Xiang was a little relieved and said, "Yuwen Wuluo? Isn't that the eldest sister's in-laws, who offended the eldest sister. Alas, this Yuwen Wuluo really doesn't stop, something happened at home, but it still has to affect our family. ”

He heard Li Zhenglong talk about the Yuwen family, but he didn't care much, and now Yang Ze came to the door. He was worried that he would affect himself, and he looked like a soldier.

Princess Xiang also said: "San Lang go to the front to take a look, whether it is the Yuwen family's business or not, send him away quickly, don't let the people of Dali Temple stay in our house for too long, they will be scared to death." ”

Li Zhenglong agreed and strode out of the house. He sighed in his heart, his parents were too timid, almost to the point of being afraid. If this is the case, the chances of the eldest princess inheriting the throne are much smaller, and once the eldest princess becomes the crown prince, she will become the empress in the future. How can there be a good family, any threat will be eradicated by his aunt, the eldest uncle and the second uncle are the best examples.

Yang Ze waited in the living room, and he found that the servants in and outside the hall were all looking at him with a look of fear. And there is a little hatred in the fear, it seems that his identity as the henchman of the eldest princess has been characterized. Becoming an enemy of the Xiangwang faction is really not good news!

Footsteps sounded, Li Zhenglong entered the living room through the back door, Yang Ze immediately stood up, and said to Li Zhenglong: "Lord, the lower official has something to disturb, the prince must not blame, just because the lower official went to the mansion, the prince is not ......"

Li Zhenglong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Yang Jun is polite, this is not a disturbance." That's fine, if you come here, you can be regarded as recognizing the door, and you will have to come and sit often in the future! Come on, change the best tea soup. With that, he walked to the main seat and sat down, looking at Yang Ze.

Yang Ze thanked him, sat back on the chair, and said, "Just now, the lower official went to see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and went to the palace with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to meet Her Majesty, and His Majesty asked Lord Yuwen about the family, and then asked the lower official to send a message to the prince." ”

Li Zhenglong hummed, didn't even think about it, and said: "Your Majesty is asking you to sue the king, so that the king will not meddle in the future?" ”

Yang Ze was stunned for a moment, this is like a god, how did he know that Empress Dugu said this? Nodding, Yang Ze said, "Someone has already come to remind the prince?" ”

Li Zhenglong shook his head and said, "How is it possible." ”

"Then how does the prince know that this is what His Majesty wants to pass on to the official? Xia Guan hasn't said anything about the process yet! Yang Ze said.

Li Zhenglong said hesitantly: "Didn't Yang Jun enter the palace with the eldest princess, with the presence of this king's aunt, how could there be anything else, this is not the first time that this king has been reminded." Has Lord Yuwen been embarrassed, I'm afraid that he wants to be unofficial and light, it's also difficult! ”

Yang Ze shook his head and said, "This subordinate doesn't know, His Majesty didn't say it to the subordinate official." ”

He told what happened in the palace, of course, he didn't say how he carried out the repetition of the case, only said that Empress Dugu was dissatisfied with such a thing in Yuwen Wuluo's house, and she might have to be further investigated.

Li Zhenglong didn't ask too much, he thought that as long as the eldest princess was present, it would be fine, and it didn't matter what the process was, the important thing was that he didn't protect Yuwen Wuluo.

Sighing, Li Zhenglong said: "Do your best, listen to the destiny of heaven, there are some things that this king can really influence." ”

After Yang Ze finished saying this, he was going to get up and say goodbye, he also passed on the words of Empress Dugu to let Li Zhenglong learn to protect himself, which was enough, he didn't want to get into trouble.

Li Zhenglong didn't want to keep him longer, so he said a few kind words, and even got up in person to send him off, and was thoughtful to Yang Zeli.

Before the two of them reached the gate, they saw another person come out of it, this person was accompanied by the housekeeper in the palace, this person was not young, his hair and beard were all white, and he was carrying a medicine box, he looked like a doctor, wearing an official uniform, presumably a doctor in the hospital.

The old lady saw Li Zhenglong and said busily: "Lord, go in quickly, the old prince and the old princess are sad, you go and persuade them, Ji people have their own natural appearance, the little county lord...... Maybe it will get better! (To be continued......)
