Li Ge Lao sat on the rosewood Taishi chair, holding a tea cup in his hand, "You must know about Niangniang's affairs in the palace." Now is the time for her mother's family to support her, but ...... For the sake of safety, it is up to you to persuade the emperor. ”

Ji Yushen stood on the ground, he paused, "I have also heard the news of the inner palace, Niangniang is powerless to deny her crime, and the queen took the opportunity to threaten the emperor to deal with it impartially." The emperor still has affection for Niangniang in his heart, but he has to deal with it according to the palace rules. In this case, does the father-in-law think it is useful to persuade the emperor? ”

Elder Li Ge sighed, "Why doesn't the old man know? Naturally, it is not to let the emperor change his decree, but to restore his position as a mother as soon as possible. It's just a trivial matter where a noble person is scared, and he will be demoted for a month, or at most two months, right? ”

One month, two months.

This seems to be no different from changing the order of the day.

Ji Yushen didn't think that the emperor would restore Concubine Xian so easily, he smiled faintly, "I'm afraid that the little son-in-law doesn't have the ability to persuade the emperor." ”

"You have, of course you have."

Elder Li Ge glanced at him meaningfully, "The old man will naturally put pressure on the emperor to write a book, and there is also the old man's protégé." When the time comes, the confession of the mother is piled up on the desk, and the emperor naturally can't ignore it. But when it comes to persuading the emperor in person, you have to go. ”

Ji Yushen didn't speak, just looked at Li Ge Lao, his eyes were unwavering.

"Young people are inevitably irritable, like little wild cats who need to be brushed. You go and persuade the emperor to give him the steps, so that he will not feel that he was forced by the courtiers to make this decision. ”

Li Ge Lao stroked his beard with a smile, "The emperor is so young that he thinks that he can hold the power in his own hands by reusing you young new imperial examiners." Why doesn't he want to think about it, you are nominally a protégé of the Son of Heaven, but in fact most of you are still my protégé, hahaha......"

Ji Yushen bowed slightly, revealing a knowing smile.

I think there is also this reason why Li Ge Lao saw himself as his son-in-law at the beginning.

He knew that there was no result, but he still smiled, "Okay, I'll go here." ”

……

"Xianggong."

Walking out of the inner hall, a woman in pink clothes came up from the corridor, and she was born with a face that resembled Concubine Xian.

She is Li Gelao's second daughter Li Ziyue, who is eighteen years old and Ji Yushen's newlywed wife.

Unlike Concubine Xian, who has been fighting in the harem for a long time, she has already practiced a calm look, and the woman in front of her is younger, simpler, and more gentle and kind, with a pair of smiling eyes full of tenderness.

Ji Yushen paused and greeted her, "How long have you been standing here and waiting?" ”

"Didn't wait, I just came."

Li Ziyue thoughtfully concealed the facts, lest she worry, "Xianggong is in a hurry, has your father handed over anything for you?" ”

"Well, I'll go to the palace."

"Oh......"

Li Ziyue was a little lost, she waited outside the door for so long just to say a few words to Ji Yushen, and she didn't want him to enter the palace again.

The husband and wife get together less and leave more, and she can't help but feel sad in her heart.

Thinking that this was also because the emperor valued him, she quickly raised her head again and smiled: "Then go to the prime minister, go early and return early." ”

Her emotions recovered so quickly, she never needed Ji Yushen to coax her, she could get better by herself.

Ji Yushen bowed slightly, "Okay, you will also go to rest." ”

With that, he turned his head and walked out of the house.

After he walked away, Li Ziyue let out a long breath.

"Second Miss, what's wrong with you?"

The maid came up and tied her cloak, "It's windy under the corridor, and the young lady is carefully swept by the wind, so let's go back first?" ”

Li Ziyue slowly followed her back, and suddenly stopped, "Jing'er, did you say that Uncle likes me?" ”

"Why did the second lady say this?"

The maid Jing'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Who does my uncle like the second lady like?" Don't forget, our uncle is a son-in-law, even if the emperor is important, he can't take concubines at will. ”

Li Ziyue shook her head, "It has nothing to do with the issue of marriage, even if he can't take a concubine, he can like the woman next to him." I always felt as if he had someone else in his heart, so close and yet so far away when he stood in front of me. ”

She reached out and gestured in front of her, stunned.

It seems that no matter how hard she tries, she always feels that there is someone in Ji Yushen's heart who occupies that position, and she can't squeeze in at all.

She thought it was because Ji Yushen was too busy and the husband and wife didn't get along enough, but he deliberately looked for opportunities to get close to him, and he always had something to do.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if he doesn't want to be in the same place as himself.

Jing'er thought for a while, "But...... Isn't it like this in front of everyone? It always looks faint and has a sense of alienation, but it's reassuring. It seems that as long as everything is handed over to him, there is nothing that cannot be done! That's why the master will pay so much attention to the uncle, miss, don't be careful! ”

Li Ziyue couldn't help laughing: "You're right, Xianggong seems to be like that." At first glance, I liked him the way he looked, and he was independent, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with him. ”

Since she loves such a Ji Yushen, she naturally has to accept the alienation brought by such a Ji Yushen.

They have only been married for less than half a year, and they still have a long time to cultivate their relationship, and everything will be fine when the time comes.

Jing'er saw her smile, and hurriedly gently pushed her forward, "Okay, my young lady, don't think about it, let's go back and rest!" ”

Li Ziyue shook her head, "No, I'm going to stew a cup of snow clams for Xianggong, and when he comes back from the palace, he can drink it." ”

The master and servant laughed and left, vaguely hearing them discussing what to use to stew snow clams, and their voices became farther and farther away—

It was blown by the early autumn wind and dissipated in the courtyard.

"Your Majesty, Lord Ji Yu Shen Ji asks to see you."

The emperor was in the imperial study to approve the folds, Gao Qishou entered the palace to report, and couldn't help but think that the emperor had seen Ji Yushen less these days.

In the past, Ji Yushen was almost always in the imperial study, accompanying the emperor to discuss the government left and right, and sometimes he even asked him to follow him when he returned to the palace, and he was still discussing things while walking.

It's been a little estranged these days, probably for the sake of Concubine Xian - no, it's Concubine Li's business, right?

Ji Yushen is Li Gelao's son-in-law and concubine's brother-in-law, so he always has to avoid suspicion.

Gao Qishou thought in his heart, look at the emperor's face and raise his eyes, but the emperor didn't raise his head, "Xuan." ”

Ji Yushen came in from outside the hall, still wearing a simple green cloth robe, vaguely still the poor child who had not yet reached high school, and only after a closer look could he see that it was not green cloth but fine silk.

It's also -

Now that he has such a prominent identity, and he is a popular person in the court of the Son of Heaven, who still wears cheap cotton cloth?

Gao Qishou glanced at him and bowed down.

"Weichen Ji Yushen see the emperor."

"Sit down."
