Chapter 104: The **** is a true **** 8

The autumn wind hummed, and an orange lantern appeared far away on the long narrow palace road. The man carrying the lantern got closer and closer, wrapped in a dark brocade cloak, covering his head and face tightly.
At this time, there are very few palace people walking around here near the palace road, and no one has met along the way. The man walked in a hurry, entered through a corner door, turned around, and finally entered the Prince's East Palace through the side door.
"Master Xu, please here." The little eunuch, who had been waiting for a long time, saw the visitor and quickly introduced him with a smile. The man wrapped in the cloak lifted the cape hat, revealing a dry face, it was Xu Xiang. He was led to a courtyard by the little eunuch, took off his cloak, sat down and drank two cups of hot tea before he waited for the Lord Prince to come.
The prince's years have passed, and he was considered a handsome man in the early years, but he has started to get blessed in the past two years. The whole person is like a blown ball, and his figure is out of shape quickly. A big belly was bundled with a gold and jade belt in the middle, like a gourd with a small upper head and a big head, Guru Guru rolled in from the door.
"Xu Xiang, what's the matter with you rushing to find someone to send a letter to Gu? Gu just returned to Beijing yesterday and couldn't catch his breath. If there is nothing serious, you can't take it easy?" The Prince said in a tone. Not so good, a faint dissatisfaction appeared between his eyebrows and eyes, "Besides, let's be a little more careful. If our father finds out, we will definitely reprimand the lonely again."
Xu Xiang listened to what he said, and did not say a word to refute, the flattering smile on his face was not faded, as if the dissatisfaction was not directed at him. He took the initiative to walk up to the prince, and was accustomed to the smell of alcohol and rouge on his body, and said: "Prince prince, Xu Xiang has something to do. I don’t know if the prince has heard that the prince is planning to open a new royal pen department. Just deal with some less important folds for him..."
"I've heard about it." The prince yawned.
Xu Xiang continued: "This is a great opportunity, Prince Prince! If I can get the position of Yubi Si, it will not be the first time I can know the direction of Chaozhong, and those who are unfavorable to the Prince will also be able Suppress it for a while, and I don’t need to say anything else, the prince can also know how good it is."
The prince's yawn was halfway through, and he looked at him up and down, "Can you get this position? It's not that the father has relied more on that Jihe recently. This position is probably his."
Xu Xiang smiled and said: "It depends on the prince, if the prince is willing to talk to the Lord..."
Before Xu Xiang finished speaking, the prince slapped a palm on the table and pointed to his nose and cursed: "Let Gu come to the father to speak? Do you have any brains, Gu Ruo dare to say this recommendation in front of the father? You, he must be able to get rid of the lonely scolding dog. When the time comes, don’t talk about doing this. Once the emperor knows that you are a lonely person, you don’t want to have another chance to face the emperor. Intervene!"
"You misunderstood the prince!" Xu Xiang said hurriedly: "I think, the prince might as well recommend that Jihe in front of the Lord."
"Ji He?" The prince frowned.
"Yes, I recommend Jihe." Xu Xiang smiled, and his eyes moved a little. "Prince, you think, the sage wants to make Jihe the position in his heart. You said it in accordance with the wishes of the sage, maybe The sage is happy. If the sage really makes Ji He the value of this imperial pen, then in front of Ji He, you will be a benefactor in this good position for him. He owes you love, but it’s not just a pinch. This time makes him belong to you."
The prince's eyes lit up and said, "If the emperor guesses that Ji He is a lone party and doesn't let him be this value, it will just be cheaper for you?"
Xu Xiang nodded, "The prince is smart. If the sage makes Jihe the value, then he owes the prince. If he doesn't let Jihe be the value, hey, besides Jihe, who else can be in this palace? Take this position with me. If it is better for me to get this position, it will be more convenient for us in the future."
The prince laughed and patted him kindly on the shoulder, "It's so good! But I heard that you have a bad relationship with Jihe, if you really let him be, would you like it?"
Xu Xiang smiled generously, "Xu Xiang is all for the prince, if he is willing to depend on you, then we will be on the same boat in the future, even if we were a bit discordant before, we can all work together for the prince's big plans in the future. "
The prince was very satisfied with his attitude, and his expression eased a lot. Xu Xiang said in more detail when he saw Zhuangcheng Hot Iron Strike: "The Holy Master has become more and more suspicious in recent days. Even if you want to recommend Jihe, you can't just say it. Let's make a good total and find the best time. There is also a saying. Can't be too straightforward..."
After staying with the prince for an hour, Xu Xiang re-wrapped his cloak and carried the lantern, and then left. When he left, he turned and glanced at the lantern hanging by the corner door, twitched the corner of his mouth mockingly, and showed a disdainful smile.
"Oh, idiot."
The orange light gradually drifted away, and finally disappeared completely in the darkness.
Only five days after the prince returned to Beijing, King Ding came back, but the first thing he came back was a bad news-King Ding passed through Yuezhou and discovered that the provincial governor of Yuezhou had concealed the local disaster situation and did not report corruption, bribery and murder. Many lives were lost, so he was annoyed and killed the Yuezhou governor Wang Zhuyu.
When the news came back, there was an uproar.
Before King Ding arrived in Beijing, the emperor who got the news got annoyed and had a headache. He didn't sleep all night, and he called the emperor to prescribe the prescription, and tossed for a long time.
On the second day, as soon as King Ding arrived in Beijing, he would first enter the palace to greet him. As soon as the emperor saw him, he threw a dozen folds in front of him with a black face, and said angrily: "What a good thing you have done! Mr. Pin, ah! You kill when you say kill?! That is a state governor!"
Ding Wang was in his twenties. He was in the frontier for a few years. He was tall and straight, kneeling down there. He was not afraid to see his father's anger, so he raised his head and said: "Wang Zhuyu corrupted and accepted bribes and killed his life. He even dared to lie about the disaster, causing serious damage to the land of Yuezhou and one state. He should die!"
Seeing that he didn't know what was wrong, the emperor's head was full of blue veins, and he sternly said: "Even if he should be killed, he should be reported to the court. Send Yushi to investigate. Wait until all kinds of things are found out. Disposal of the law. What about you, what are you doing! You killed people with a single sword. Why, do you think you can represent the court's laws? Have you put the emperor I in your eyes!"
As an emperor, he can tolerate small actions by his subordinates, but absolutely cannot tolerate his son challenging his authority, especially when he clearly feels that he is getting old every day.
The emperor was angry, and all the people in the palace dared not speak, lowering their heads and pretending that they did not exist. Ji He also stood aside, his eyes lowered, and he couldn't see what he was thinking from his expression.
In fact, since King Ding entered the hall, he looked at the prince all round. The prince had previously asked the Queen Mother Huijing for Tanxiu to be a concubine, but Tanxiu refused. He is away all year round and rarely enters the palace, but every time Ji He sees him, he feels uneasy. Now Tanxiu is his food, and Ji He feels even more unhappy when he sees the prince again.
Reckless and straightforward, not knowing how to work around. In this case, he doesn't know how to admit his mistakes, and even confronts the emperor. No matter how loud the voice of the generals in the DPRK is, the emperor is unlikely to pass on the throne to him. Ji He thought, Sora has a heart to love the people, but doesn't understand the laws of governing the country at all, and has no power to seize the position. What's the use?
The emperor saw King Ding once, even if he was not ill, he would get sick. When King Ding was scolded by him and left, the emperor wilted on the chair, showing exhaustion on his face. Ji He promptly stepped forward to offer him a calming and refreshing tea soup, and picked up all the folds he had fallen off in angrily before and put them back on the case.
The emperor rubbed his forehead, and suddenly said: "This child has always been like this since he was a child. He never knew how to change. He has become accustomed to his own way. He thought that he would change his stinky temper by spending a few years at the border. Who knows that it is becoming more and more lawless now."
Ji He didn't talk, he knew that the emperor didn't need him to say anything now, he just listened. Sure enough, the emperor himself continued to say as if talking to himself: "The prince has become more active in recent years, and he has not been very restful. He has been led by his underlings. King Ding is so bad-tempered, what? He doesn’t know how to do things, except to search for concubines everywhere, just dance with spears and sticks. King Ping is better. If you don’t do business all day, you will know that you will hold his precious princess, chant poems, paint, and play in the mountains every day. Ignore him, even if he is sick, he doesn't even come to the palace to have a look. How to teach me these in the future and let them inherit the rule."
Because of the matter of the king, and the famine that Yuezhou was concealed, the court was noisy, and there was no peace everywhere. The emperor had a bad temper. Ji Hede was always there and waited on him. When he went back, he would go back. But as long as he had time, he would rush back. Even if he had a meal with Tanxiu, he felt that he was relaxed. A bit, even no matter how tired, I feel happy.
Tan Xiu is also aware of the recent situation. She has received some news from Ji Yansi, and she has been thinking about one thing in her heart.
In the last life, Xu Xiang was able to get the position of Yubi Si. Tan Xiuyou wanted to change this matter. After thinking about it for two days, he found a way, but he had some concerns and didn't talk to Jihe.
On this day, Ji Hexia came back to rest, Tan Xiuxun felt that there was no time if he didn't say anything, so he said what he had prepared.
Ji He was sitting there soaking his feet in hot water, and Tan Xiu sat beside him with a pair of shoe soles. After hearing Tan Xiu's words, Ji He was stunned, and the rushing water stopped instantly. His eyebrows were twisted, but they loosened quickly when Tan Xiu looked over. If he bowed his head casually to twist the cloth towel, he asked: "You want me to go to the Lord to intercede for King Ding?"
Ji He didn't show anything on his face, his heart was already earthshaking. He thought, could it be that Tanxiu thought about King Ding? He couldn't help thinking a little bit more. For example, why Tan Xiu was willing to be with him suddenly? Could it be that he committed himself to help King Ding win him?
But this thought only flashed in his mind for a moment, and he threw it aside. He thought as sensibly as possible that Tanxiu once rejected King Ding, so it was naturally meaningless for him, and being with him would not help King Ding. .
Although he knew it clearly in his heart, for some reason, he was still turbulent in his heart. He didn't look up at Tan Xiu, but just buried his head and wiped his feet.
Tanxiu has been with him for so long. Why didn’t he understand his thoughts, and stared at him after he had spoken. When he saw that he was okay, but didn’t look at her, he knew that he was definitely in his heart. Screwed.
Asking Ji He to speak for King Ding in front of the emperor, the emperor might think that he is a party to the king, but as far as she knows in her previous life, the prince will soon come to the emperor to recommend Ji and Ren Yubi. The prince and Dingwang parties were the most prosperous, and the emperor was also the most jealous. If he got involved with one of the parties, the emperor would have to think more about it, but if there was a relationship between the two parties, it would be different. She was betting on the emperor's mind.
Tan Xiu accidentally learned from Ji He in his life that the reason why he failed to become the official secretary of the imperial pen and let Xu Xiang pick up the bargain was because the prince said something in front of the emperor. After that, Xu Xiang became the Crown Prince's official, and gradually gained momentum, overwhelming Ji He, and finally forced him to join the Prince's Party. Tan Xiu didn't want Ji He to repeat the same mistakes, so he could only think of this way and let him try it.
But the reason for this kind of thing, how should she talk to Ji He? How would she tell him where she got the news from? How can she guarantee that this time, the prince will still do those things like in his previous life?
She was really afraid that she would be self-defeating, and she was suffering very much.
Ji He did not speak, and took the water out and poured it. Tan Xiu pursed her lips, and when she was about to fall asleep, she said again: "No need to say anything, just ask for a few words of love." After all, she didn't really want Ji He to help the king, but just to show the emperor. That's it.
Ji He still didn't respond.
This is the first time that the two have moved to the same place. Tan Xiu looked at Ji He's back, and tried to say something several times, but finally shut up. She was a little uncomfortable, how could she explain?
Before rebirth, Tanxiu died of a heart disease. After rebirth, she was too heavy-minded. At this time, she suffered for a few more days, and finally couldn't stand it and fell ill all of a sudden.
Ji Yansi was the first to find out that his godfather was ill, so he placed the person to rest, and went to report to his godfather in a hurry. Ji He is busy with the affairs of the Department of Internal Affairs. At this moment, when there is a lot of work, he is so busy all morning that he has no time to drink. Seeing Ji Yansi running over with the sky falling down, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong, sweating profusely."
Ji Yansi cried and said, "The godmother is ill, as if she is very sick."
Ji He was taken aback for a moment, a lot of ink fainted from what he was writing under his hand, and he asked, "What's the matter?"
Ji Yansi said: "My son went to deliver food to Gan Niang, and when he saw her sitting at the table leaning on a chair, he thought she was asleep, but he couldn't wake up at all. After trying, he found that Gan Niang passed out. ..."
When Ji He heard this, he got up and walked out wherever he could stay. Outside the door came a head of the inner palace, saw him, greeted him and asked: "Sigong, over there from the restaurant..."
Ji He didn’t wait for him to finish, so he said,
Look at Luyuan over there, don’t make any trouble, and don’t move at the Ku Mansion. I’ll do what I have written on the table first. Those will wait until I come back." He put down the folded cuffs as he walked, and after a few words, people had already walked out the door.
The Zhang Er named Luyuan stood at the door clumsily, looking at his hurried back from a distance, and muttered: "What's wrong with the company? It's like this."
