Chapter 22 Drowsiness
"Yes." Song Po nodded.

Li Yan was a little more sure of Song Po's thought that Song Po was the disciple of the Song family.

"Song Po, what's your opinion on the current imperial court and the regent?" Li Yan straightened his expression, and he involuntarily exuded royal pressure.

"Don't dare to arbitrarily discuss state affairs." Song Po froze in his heart.

"It's just an ordinary chat," Li Yan waved his hand. "As a member of the royal family, there are some things that you can't say clearly. You should understand what this palace means."

Song Po looked at Xiao Xing and Xiao Wen who were standing behind Li Shi, with some hesitation on their faces.

"You go farther." Li Yan didn't understand Song Po's meaning, and immediately ordered the two to leave.

After the two of them walked away, Song Po slowly spoke, "There is one of the biggest problems in the imperial court today, the regent."

"His sphere of influence is really big." Song Pert paused, "This means that the popular opinion is not the current saint, and it is really easy for the regent to seize power and usurp the throne."

"But the small countries around us that are attached to us shouldn't easily agree to change their masters, right?" Li Yan hesitated.

"It's hard to say," Song Po shook his head and said in a deep voice, "As a vassal, I naturally want to be attached to a powerful country, and now the emperor... loves to recuperate. This move is naturally good for the common people, but not for a vassal country. Certainly."

"I've seen the Regent," Somper paused, as if searching for a suitable adjective. "He's a very ambitious man."

"Of course, maybe it just looks ambitious." Song Po seemed to think that what he said was not appropriate enough, and quickly waved his hand while correcting his remarks, "I don't know the Prince Regent very well, but I was fortunate enough to meet a few times. Heard some of his deeds."

"I understand." Li Yan nodded and looked at Song Po sincerely, "Can you tell me your position?"

"For generations of the Song family, there has never been a treacherous villain." Song Po straightened his back, and there was an unquestionable majesty on his body. Word by word, it was like an oath, "This minister will not be an exception."

Only the king is ordered to obey, this is the teaching Song Po received since he was a child.

The first emperor never treated the Song family badly, and the current decline is also because the regent is a hindrance.

"Thank you." Li Yan felt a touch of emotion in his heart.

Unexpectedly, there are people who are willing to support their siblings unconditionally.

"Song Po, are you willing to do Ben Gong a favor?" Li Yan looked at Song Po with a burning gaze.

"Although the eldest princess instructs you."

"It's not an order, it's a request - you can listen to it before making a decision."

Li Yan said slowly, "Since you know that the regent has power over the government and the opposition, you naturally understand that the life of this palace and His Majesty will not be easy, and this palace wants to change this situation."

"Are you willing to be the cornerstone of this palace's upward movement?"

"Only with my current strength, I can't make any promises to you, and I don't like to say empty words, but if you want, I will never treat you badly in the future."

Song Po was silent, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind.

No one in the court did not know about the sickness of the sage, and there was no telling when he would drive the crane to the west. Now that he has no children, this country might fall into someone's hands.

If it falls into the hands of others, it will only be a matter of time before their loyal Song family perishes.

It is better to believe in this eldest princess, at least she is still a member of the current royal family.

Li Yan didn't move either, quietly waiting for his reply.

"The minister takes orders." After a long while, Song Po knelt down and bowed to Li Shi, but this time Li Shi did not stop him.

After Song Po finished the ceremony, Li Yan helped Song Po up and handed him a jade pendant that he was carrying, "This is the personal thing of this palace, if anything happens, just take this jade pendant. Go to Qingliang Hall to find Ben Gong, and Ben Gong will try to help you."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Song Po was not polite to Li Yan, and accepted the jade pendant.

"The Japanese Palace should come out frequently during this period." Li Yan paused, "Since you are studying at Qingyun Academy, can you recommend some talents to this palace?"

"I do know a lot of people, but I don't use them much." Song Po pondered for a while, "I will arrange for your Highness to meet tomorrow, tomorrow at noon, this is the place."

"Okay." Li Yan nodded, "You also hurry back to the academy, it's not good to come here anyway."

"I understand." Song Po nodded.

"I have something to do in this palace, I have to leave first." Li Yan got up with a smile and warned, "If others ask, don't say you have seen this palace, even if you want to introduce people to see this palace tomorrow, don't tell them about this palace. real identity."

"Yes."

With Song Po's support, Li Shao finally let go of her dangling heart and went to the counter to pay the money, and Li Shao left the restaurant.

"Miss, should we go back?" Xiaowen glanced at the sky outside, "The meal in the imperial kitchen should have been delivered to the Qingliang Palace."

"Not in a hurry." Li Yan didn't want to deal with those who came to please her despite having not met a few times, so she waved her hand, "Just find a place to eat lunch outside, and go to the second academy later."

"Yes."

Li Shao said so, naturally Xiao Xing and Xiao Wen couldn't say anything else, and followed Li Shao into a restaurant.

After drinking and eating, Li Yan took the two straight to the second academy.

The attitude of the students of this academy is much better than that of the Qingyun Academy, but Li Yan still has nothing to gain.

If the students of Qingyun Academy are all arrogant and proud children of aristocratic families, then the students of this academy are market children who have been polished by life. They are all imprisoned in the corner world of books, and their footsteps are imprisoned.

Li Shi guessed that there would be no more gains today, so he had to step back to the palace.

Really tired, Li Shu ordered Xiaowen to rent a carriage, and sat on it and fell asleep.

When the carriage returned to the Qingliang Temple, the moon had already risen. After running around for a day, Li Shao was really sleepy. After a simple wash, Li Shao took a rest.

The next day, Li Yan arrived as scheduled, and Song Po brought only two or three people. After a brief conversation with them, Li Yan had no intention of continuing to communicate.

In contrast, Song Po was more in line with her appetite.

Song Po also seemed to see that Li Shao was not interested in the people he brought, so he quickly took those people to say goodbye to Li Shao. Li Shao didn't stay in the teahouse too much, and listened to Mr. Storyteller's performance for a while. , and left the teahouse.

There are three academies in the capital, and she is going to the last one today.

This academy is called Egret Academy. Most of the students in it are the children of poor families. The conditions are much worse than that of Qingyun Academy. However, this academy gets a lot of people admitted almost every year. Reading sages and sages, so it is also the family that Li Yan is most looking forward to.

"Even if it's the regent? When I get the title, I'll be on an equal footing with him." A boyish voice entered Li Yan's ears.
