Doctor Xianggong, the goddess of poisonous belly

Chapter 150 It is very important to His Highness (2)
The fifth prince, Si Yujiang, is not valued by the king even though he has not been crowned king, but he is the only prince who can get close to the king's sick bed. Even the prince is often rejected by the king, but the fifth prince Every time he asked for an audience, he had to be allowed by the king to enter Bixin Palace. Just because of this alone, many courtiers who had never cared about him turned their attention to him.

No one can guess what the king is thinking, that is, as the king's right-hand man, Liu Chengji has only seen the king twice in the past two months, but Lou Yuan's junior has been summoned by the king every day , the prince has shown that he doesn't trust him, he must find another force he can rely on.

The Fifth Prince seems to be considered.

However, Si Yujiang didn't answer Liu Chengji's question directly, he only glanced at the servant girl standing in the hall and said politely: "I wonder if Mr. Zuoxiang can let all the people in the whole house come to the front yard? I've only seen her once, and I can't quite describe her appearance, so I have to thank Mr. Zuoxiang."

To be precise, he had only seen her once, the first time he saw her.

With only one word "she", Liu Chengji didn't know whether Si Yujiang was looking for a man or a woman, so he couldn't help asking: "I wonder if the Fifth Highness is looking for a man or a woman?"

Si Yujiang didn't answer, nor did he intend to answer, because he didn't want to make it so obvious.

Liu Chengji saw that Si Yujiang didn't answer, so it was inconvenient for him to ask again, so he just said: "Then please wait a moment for the incense burner, Your Highness Fifth."

After Liu Chengji finished speaking, he immediately ordered the steward next to him to call the people from all over the mansion. Finally, before the steward left, he whispered something, and the steward left respectfully.

Si Yujiang tasted the tea quietly, and did not forget to praise "good tea".

After Si Yujiang finished what he wanted to say, he didn't want to say anything else. Liu Chengji wanted to say something several times, but seeing that Si Yujiang didn't even have the intention to look at him, he stopped talking and said: "I don't know if I can dare to ask His Highness a question?"

"Lord Prime Minister Zuo, may I ask?" Si Yujiang was polite.

"Your Highness came to Zuo Xiangfu late at night to look for someone. This person...is very important to His Highness?"

Si Yujiang took a sip of tea, said after a moment of silence: "It's sort of."

With ambiguous answers, Ryu Seungji didn't ask any more questions.

Si Yujiang looked at his own reflection on the tea juice in the cup, and took another sip of tea.

Is the person who has already made him forget about food and drink important to him, or not?
Even he himself can't tell.

After an incense stick, more than 80 people from Zuoxiang's mansion gathered in the yard in front of the hall. It seemed that in order to let Si Yujiang recognize the people clearly, the person in charge asked every other person to light up a lantern for a while. The whole yard is quite bright.

The steward instructed them to stand up before turning around and entering the hall to report. When he turned around, someone in the crowd started whispering.

Soon, Si Yujiang walked out of the hall. All the girls blushed and lowered their heads one after another. Who knew that when they lowered their heads a little, they heard the steward shout: "Raise your heads! Let Your Highness see clearly. "

The steward's voice was quite serious, which made many people feel a little uneasy. They were not sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for the prince from the palace to gather them here late at night, and if it was a bad thing...

The timid one has already started to shiver.

Standing behind Si Yujiang, Yan Ling realized that Liu Chengji had really sent the news from the whole mansion, even his wife and children, who seemed to have dressed up a little in this short period of time. Yanling can more or less guess Liu Chengji's mind for some of the young ladies who are as beautiful as flowers and jade.

Losing the mountain of the prince because of Lord Yi, Liu Chengji seems to want to change another mountain to rely on.

Under the current situation where the king has been lying in bed for half a year and has not come to the court early, everyone in the court seems to have such an idea.

The current situation in the temple is unstable, which is something that even the common people know more or less about.

Yanling also discovered that the steward of the Zuoxiang Mansion was very good at handling things. Not only did he call all the people in the mansion over in a short period of time, but he also arranged them neatly. The distance that can allow one person to pass is so that Si Yujiang can't see people clearly when standing in front, so he has to walk down to see.

However, Si Yujiang didn't need to go up to look at it at all, he could already see the dozens of people in front of him clearly by standing on the two high steps under the porch in front of the hall, his gaze slowly moved forward from the back , the further he moved forward, the deeper his gaze was, until he had finished looking at the daughters of the Liu family in the front row, his gaze was as deep as the night above.

As if he didn't want to believe it, Si Yujiang looked at the female relatives in front of him again, and Liu Chengji was watching his reaction. Seeing that he didn't respond to the daughters in the front row, he couldn't help Asked: "Your Highness, can you find the person His Highness is looking for?"

"I heard that Mr. Zuo Xiang has eight daughters under his knees. Except for the eldest lady and the eighth miss who married into King Yi's mansion, why do you only see four daughters?" Si Yujiang suddenly thought of the hypothesis he least wanted to think about.

When Liu Chengji heard this, he was sure that what Si Yujiang was looking for was a girl, and at the same time his complexion darkened a little. Although he didn't want to mention this fact that he was unwilling to accept until now, he still chose to say truthfully: "The five girls are unfortunately infected. Leaving Weichen quickly, Weichen's second wife has been very homesick recently, Weichen authorized her to take the fourth daughter back to Nanling to visit her natal family."

"Nanling?" Si Yujiang's gloomy heart skipped a beat when he heard Liu Chengji mention the word Nanling, and he opened his mouth to ask back.

"Exactly." While answering Si Yujiang's question, Liu Chengji was still paying attention to observing his reaction, and found that Si Yujiang was quite sensitive to the second half of what he said.

After all, Liu Chengji is a person who is good at observing words and expressions, and after capturing the subtle changes in Si Yujiang's expression and words, he continued: "It's cold at night, Your Highness, please sit in the room."

Si Yujiang didn't even look at the people in the yard anymore, he turned around and walked back to the hall behind him, some of them gasped and some sighed, the manager came and told them to do their own things, and sent the daughter The masters sent them off respectfully. The wives and ladies knew that Liu Chengji didn't like them coming to the front hall without his permission, so they didn't dare to stay here any longer. They only looked at the secretary in the hall. Empress Yu Jiang also went back to their respective yards.

After Si Yujiang and Liu Chengji sat down in the living room again, Liu Chengji was no longer silent like before, but talked about some household matters with Si Yujiang, and he always mentioned his four daughters intentionally or unintentionally. , Liu Qing.

"The fourth daughter has been on good terms with the eldest daughter since she was a child, and this time I will accompany her second mother to Nanling to see the two married daughters on behalf of my ministers." Liu Chengji said while personally offering Si Yu Xinjiang full of a cup of tea.

Si Yujiang listened quietly, not expressing too much inconvenience, and just followed Liu Chengji's words and asked unintentionally, "I wonder when the second wife of Mr. Left Prime Minister went to Nanling?"
