Chapter 421 Princess, please respect yourself
A few days have passed.
At the time when the main building of Lin Mansion's second courtyard was being restored, Hou Zhigang came to the house with Emperor Qing's orders and rewarded him with a pile of high-quality daily necessities, including silk, porcelain, furniture, etc.
After that, they took Chu Pingsheng into the imperial city and outside the Xingqing Palace. When they walked up the steps, Sinan Bo Fan Jian happened to come towards them with a very ugly expression on his face. When they passed by him He also snorted.
Chu Pingsheng was stunned for a moment, looked at Hou Zhigang, turned around and walked quickly, kicking Fan Jian on the lower back.
Si Nanbo, a civil servant, was no match for him. His foot was unstable, his body tilted, and he rolled down the stairs.
Fortunately, the guards on both sides of the long steps had quick eyesight and quick hands. They supported him when he rolled six or seven steps. When he looked at Mr. Si Nanbo, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. His eyes were closed in pain and he was sweating profusely.
The corners of Gong Dian's mouth twitched and he looked at Hou Zhigang with pleading eyes.
"Father-in-law..."
"Why are you still standing there? Take Uncle Siman to the Imperial Hospital quickly."
"Hey."
Gong Dian finally realized what he was doing, and called to the guard who was supporting Fan Jian to pick him up and walk quickly towards the direction of the Taiyuan Hospital.
Chu Pingsheng said calmly: "Eunuch Hou saw it, he provoked me first."
That's your father-in-law.
That’s your father-in-law!
Fan Jian is your father-in-law, and my concubine’s father is also your father!
Hou Zhigang complained continuously in his heart, said "yes" falsely, bowed and waved his arms: "Please, Mr. Chu."
"Yes."
< br>Chu Pingsheng patted the dust on his green shirt, put one hand in front and the other behind his back, and entered the royal study.
Li Yunqian was wearing white underwear and a red robe. He was sitting cross-legged on a couch with a book in his hand. He was the Xinliu Bookstore of the Northern Qi Dynasty that had a deep connection with Zhuang Mohan. "Three Hundred Tang Poems" was published and distributed at cost of labor.
Hearing the footsteps of the two people entering the hall, he waved his hand without raising his head: "Take a seat."
A servant came in and placed a stool covered with yellow cushions in front of Chu Pingsheng.
He was not humble either, so he sat down.
Li Yunqian folded the page, closed the book, and placed it on the desk next to it.
“What happened outside just now?”
Hou Zhigang looked at Chu Pingsheng who looked indifferent, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this is Uncle Si Nan. He fell down on the steps. The deputy commander of the palace has sent someone to carry him to the Imperial Hospital for treatment."
Fan Jiancai Four He was in his teens, and the steps outside were not steep. How could he suddenly fall?
Li Yunqian glanced at Hou Zhigang, who was smiling reluctantly, and understood.
“Do you know why Uncle Si Nan came to the palace this time?”
Chu Pingsheng said: “It’s not a good thing anyway.”
"That's right."
Li Yunqian turned to the side and leaned half of his body on the case: "He wants me to marry his daughter to the sixth grandson of Liu Guogong."
After finishing speaking, he paused and added: "I went to visit Liu Guogong a few days ago. The situation is not very good."
Chu Pingsheng understood.
He killed Liu Xiangnan. Duke Liu Guo knew that his most promising grandson was dead, and became extremely ill in anger. Li Yunqian, his son-in-law, went to visit him. The old man must have asked the emperor to punish the murderer severely. Would Li Yunqian dare to punish him? He didn't dare, and he felt a little guilty because he didn't dare. Fan Jian happened to take the opportunity to ask for an audience and asked the emperor to marry Fan Ruoruo to the Liu family.
Fan Jian married Liu Ruyu and later married Fan Ruoruo to the Liu family. This was called a perfect match. Moreover, it was Fan Xian, the emperor's illegitimate son, who caused the disaster. Fan Jian, as the official father, had to bear the brunt of the criticism. Not only was he demoted to the second level and sent to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, his nephew who was liked by his concubine also lost his life. If the emperor did not agree, he would be ruthless and ruthless. righteous.
"You agreed?"
Li Yunqian said: "No."
"No wonder he 'hummed' me, it turned out that his inner thoughts were not satisfied."< br>
“You do it when he snorts at you?”
"I didn't recruit him, and I didn't provoke him. Why should he snort at me? This is the palace, and I am his superior. He snorted at me because he was disrespectful. I didn't bother him, so I kicked him. It's already... "You are merciful outside the law."
"Do you still want to marry his daughter?"
"You also said that I married his daughter, not him, so why should I tolerate him?" "
Li Yunqian was speechless. Now he finally understood, who is Chu Pingsheng? He is an owner who will chase two miles away with a stick whenever a dog barks.
"If you marry Fan Ruoruo, he will be your father-in-law."
"Your Majesty Emperor Qing, have you ever seen anyone who bought a brothel girl as a concubine and cared about her family relationship? Although Fan Ruoruo is not a brothel girl, I won her through a bet. She has no feelings for me, and I don't have feelings for her either. , she only needs to fulfill the bet and become my concubine. Since she is a concubine, she is my private property. Strictly speaking, does her father do my shit in life or death? "
Big? The eunuch heard this and wanted to slap himself on both ears.
This statement about not recognizing one’s relatives is quite reasonable.
Li Yunqian didn't want to argue about right and wrong with a guy like him who was full of crooked ideas, so he waved his hand and dismissed the eunuch.
"I called you here this time to discuss the exchange of prisoners with Qi. You...will go to Northern Qi, right?"
"Of course."
"Where is your master?"
"I should go too."
Li Yunqian pondered for a moment and said: "I plan to ask Fan Xian to escort Sean there. Go to Beijing in exchange for Yan Bingyun.”
“Well, this will eliminate the wave of doubts among the people, right?”
"That's right."
"Then why did you ask me to come?"
"I know Fan Xian did something and your master is very dissatisfied with him..." Li Yunqian said with a smile on his face Smile: "You should understand what I want to say."
"You want my master not to kill him? I can't be my master's boss." Chu Pingsheng said: "That night at the Four Kingdoms banquet, Fan According to my master's temperament, I should have killed Xian Zhi with a single sword. I just wanted to tolerate him as much as possible because he is your majesty's son. Now he is heading north to Qi State. If he harbors a grudge and secretly does something against me, my master will know about it. "I don't think Master will continue to tolerate it." "I will tell the whole country tomorrow that I will marry Princess Chen, Ye Ling'er, and Fan Ruoruo when you come back from Northern Qi. How about that?"
"Then... let me give it a try."
"One more thing, if something happens to Sean on your way north with Fan Xian, don't worry about it."
Chu Pingsheng pretends not to Answer: "Your Majesty wants to kill him in Qidi?"
"..."
"Okay, I won't ask any more questions."
Chu Pingsheng stood up from his stool and said goodbye.
Li Yunqian nodded and waved to see him off.
As he expected, as long as he makes good use of Chu Pingsheng's lustful character, he can achieve his goal.
Chu Pingsheng said that he asked Fan Xian to escort Sean north in exchange for Yan Bingyun in order to eliminate the wave of doubts among the people. This was just killing four birds with one stone.
This time the two of them go north, Bai Feng will follow, and Wu Zhu will definitely follow.
The two great masters would most likely fight again, and he only needed to save Fan Xian's life. No matter which one of Wu Zhu and Bai Feng, who had practiced domineering Qi, died, he would be happy to see it happen.
It’s that simple to drive away tigers and devour wolves.
......
Chu Pingsheng left Xingqing Palace. He was stopped by Wan Qiu, a female official next to Li Yunrui, after he had not gone far. After saying a few words to the young eunuch, he took him to Guangzhou. Letter Palace.
Goodbye Li Yunrui, she was wearing a very see-through gauze dress, with her carved jade-like feet bare, walking from the dressing table to the crescent moon couch. The hem of the gauze dress was very long, trailing on the floor, leaving behind The light footprints and the rich scent of rose water suggest that he must have just taken a bath.
She sat down lazily and looked at Chu Pingsheng, who was sitting at the wooden table opposite the door like last time, munching fruit and looking at her body up and down with intrusive eyes. She pinched her sleeves and lightly covered her mouth and nose, and smiled slightly. Cough.
She was about to speak, but Chu Pingsheng spoke first: "Isn't it cold..."
"What did you say?"
"I said it's not right for you to dress like this. "Is it cold?"
Li Yunrui moved his arm: "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
"Then do you want me to say you feel sorry for me? Or do you want me to say I don't feel sorry for you?"
Click.
Chu Pingsheng took a big bite of the pulp. The half red and half green fruit was sweet, crisp, and full of moisture.
“Let’s forget about the honey trap and let’s get down to business.”
Li Yunrui glared at him, as if to blame him for his incomprehensible amorous feelings.
"I heard that you beat Fan Jian?"
"He asked for it."
Chu Pingsheng threw the fruit core into the silver slag bucket and walked to the crescent moon couch. , got closer to Li Yunrui, and sniffed all the way down from her long hair, behind her ears, to her neck.
"The flower dew is good, remember to ask Wanqiu to send some to my house."
Li Yunrui chuckled and said, "Is it for your Miss Si?"
"No."
"No?"
"This time when I go north, I can't go empty-handed. I'll bring some flower dew prepared by my mother-in-law. I'm sure the Empress Dowager of the Northern Qi Dynasty will like it."< br>
"Who said you are a barbarian? If anyone says you are a barbarian in front of me in the future, I will cut out his tongue." Li Yunrui stretched out his hand without red nails and wearing a black agate ring. , slender fingers gently scraped his cheek.
Chu Pingsheng held her hand: "Eldest Princess, please respect yourself."
Giggling...
She withdrew her hand and covered her mouth with a smile.
“You take my things and give them to other women and you don’t allow me to complain?”
“That’s not what you should be complaining about, right?”
"Tell me, what should I complain about?"
"For example, Guo Youzhi's matter." Chu Pingsheng sat down on the crescent couch, next to her fragrant body: "If I guessed correctly, Li Yunqian has suspected you and even looked for you. This time he sent Fan Xian as an envoy Beiqi may have other plans besides exchanging prisoners."
At this point, the charm on Li Yunrui's face faded: "What else?"
Chu Pingsheng continued: "Either you give up the inner treasure voluntarily, or he takes your weak point and forces you to give up the inner treasure, so you want me to kill Fan Xian on the way north, right?"
Li Yunrui waved his waist, Lying down on the couch, resting his chin on his hands, he looked at him with a smile.
"So, will you kill him for me? I don't think it will be difficult for you."
"Then why do you think the emperor summoned me to meet in the imperial study?"
"Did you agree to him?"
"He used your daughters, Fan Ruoruo and Ye Ling'er, to seduce you. I have a reason to refuse."
"The person your Majesty is requesting should be your master, and I..." Li Yunrui moved his hand to his leg and patted it gently: "The person you are requesting is you."
Chu Pingsheng didn’t say help or not. He smiled at her, got up and walked outside.
Li Yunrui swung his waist, got up from the couch, dragged his transparent gauze skirt to the door of the hall, and watched him turn down the long road in front of the door and leave Guangxin Palace with the eunuch guarding the door.
