Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 474
Yang Bo took a sip of the fresh tea and mumbled, "I don't know if I should say something or not."

"If you have anything to say, Yongnian just say it." Wei Zheng stroked his long beard, wondering what he was thinking.

"Let's talk." Yang Bo hesitated to speak, he was impatient by nature, took a big mouthful of warm tea, and said coyly: "His Royal Highness doesn't seem to like Fang Jun."

"Isn't this a flea on the bald man's head? It's obvious?" Du Ruhui put down the teacup and whispered, "His Royal Highness is very dependent on the Guanlongmen Clan, and Fang Jun has enmity with the eldest grandson's family one after another. Besides, Brother Xuanling is He is the leader of the Shandong gentry, and with this double reason, how could the crown prince like the last love?"

"No, no, that's not what I mean." Yang Bo shook his head, denying Du Ruhui's guess, and continued: "Everyone knows about this, but the old man is talking about another relationship."

Wei Zheng sipped the tea to moisten his throat, and said leisurely, "Yongnian wants to say that the crown prince doesn't like to take a concubine?"

"That's right, it's rare for one person to have two princesses, and Fang Jun has taken Qin Jingniang and Xie Yaohuan as concubines. In this way, how can the crown prince worry about his younger sister?" Yang Bo sighed. He thought he was impartial, She actually became interested in Fang Yiai's private affairs.

"Three uncles." Fang Yiai and Ma Zhou walked into the next room at the same time, bowed their hands to the three of them one by one, and said, "This is not because my nephew is stupid, it's just because of others."

"What happened?" Yang Bo's sad face instantly turned into anger, and he said in a cold voice, "How can you let someone else casually handle the important matters of the military governor's mansion and the army's food transportation? I think you are the third rank of the military governor's mansion. The official title, but it still belongs to our Ministry of War, since you are going to be dismissed, why don't you meet in the hall of the Ministry of War first?"

"This." Seeing the eagerness of the old leader, Fang Yiai couldn't help but secretly startled, cupped his hands and said, "The Guanlongmen faction is coming fiercely, Fang Jun is advancing in this matter, if there is anything wrong, I hope uncle will enlighten me."

Wei Zheng was about to speak, when suddenly he saw a figure outside the door, he couldn't help frowning and said to Ma Zhou: "Ma Yushi, please go to the outer compartment."

Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou are both teachers and friends, and the two have known each other for many years, how could Ma Zhou not know what his senior was thinking, after slightly nodding, he went outside to guard the door.

"Yi Ai!" Wei Zheng said angrily, "How can you hand over the fat to others?"

"Ha Michi was scared out of his wits by you at Wuma Road earlier. It is said that once bitten by a snake for ten years, he is afraid of well ropes. After that, the three armies' food and roads will be safe. They can be promoted to rank just by walking and welcoming them. Now Why did you recommend Chang Sun Chong to do the errand?"

After finishing speaking, Du Ruhui pointed to the stool and signaled Fang Yiai to sit down and discuss.

"Three uncles, this place is not a place for discussion, Fang Jun will definitely explain clearly in person someday." Fang Yiai was worried about the eyes and ears of the Eastern Palace, and refused to tell the three of them.

"Hmph!" Yang Bo snorted coldly, "I want to see what flowers you can come up with!"

Seeing that Fang Yiai's expression didn't seem to be prevarication, Du Ruhui smiled wryly, "Okay, let's drink tea."

The sun was rising, and all the ministers moved to Yichun Palace. The palace had already prepared delicacies, wines, fine wines and banquets, which were only one grade lower than the imperial banquets in Daming Palace.

In order to avoid suspicion, Fang Xuanling had been staying in the duty room with his eldest grandson Wuji before, and now the two walked into the hall side by side, and sat on the two seats on the left and right respectively.

Having no official status, Fang Yiai resumed his job as "Captain Consort" after taking a break from the military governor's mansion. Now sitting beside Ma Zhou, he just bowed his head and said nothing. Li Chengqian looked at him in a trance. It is uncertain whether the family is still a noble family or a poor family in Shandong.

Li Chengqian often drank sanle syrup because of his leg disease. He sat on the front seat at this time and raised his glass: "Father, the emperor, drove himself to conquer the Turks. All the ministers are the ministers who assist the government. In recent days, the little king has done a lot. I hope you will forgive me for being negligent.”

Everyone toasted and thanked in unison, drank the wine together, and their faces were full of joy.

"Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao." Li Chengqian paid respects to Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji one by one, and said a lot of things that were not cool or hot, most of which were meant to be probing.

Ever since Li Chengqian accidentally fell off his horse and suffered from leg problems, his temperament has changed significantly. While guarding against Li Tai and Li Ke's succession, he tried his best to win Changsun Wuji, but Changsun Wuji behaved too much So strong that it made Li Chengqian feel conflicted. Yang Bo, Ma Zhou, Wei Zheng and others spoke out to help Fang Yiai this morning, which made him see clearly that there is a force in the court that can oppose the Guanlong clan—— The Shandong gentry and poor families and commoners.

The Shandong gentry headed by Fang Du, and the poor family headed by Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou, the key to the two being able to become one is Fang Yiai. Although Fang Yiai's resignation is his voluntary petition, but Li Chengqian is not It is also difficult to get rid of the relationship. At this moment, Li Chengqian has the heart to win over the nobles and poor families in Shandong, and the most urgent task is to win the support of Fang Yiai.

After toasting the three of them one by one, Li Chengqian deliberately drank a few more glasses, then walked in front of Ma Zhou, toasted to the officials one by one, and finally stood in front of Fang Yiai's banquet in a roundabout way.

"My sister-in-law."

"His Royal Highness."

"My brother-in-law is dismissed right now." As he said that, Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and pulled the palm of the house's widow, "I'm a little drunk, so I have three urgent brothers-in-law to accompany me."

"Huh? Let me accompany him to the toilet?" Fang Yiai muttered, although she didn't want to, she was dragged out of Yichun Palace by Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian walked into an attic with Fang Yiai, then dismissed the courtiers, and closed the door behind his back.

"Wow! The East Palace is different, even the toilets are two floors." Fang Yiai looked around and saw that there were no toilets or earth dragons on the first floor, she couldn't help but asked, "Prince."

"Let's go to the second floor." Li Chengqian walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Although his appearance was a bit indecent, his speed was not slow.

Climbing up to the second floor, Fang Yiai immediately understood Li Chengqian's intention when he saw bamboo curtains covering all sides, "This is clearly a summer pavilion. Li Chengqian has something to say to me?"

Li Chengqian walked to the tea table, saw that there was no tea on the table, could not help but frown slightly, limped to the railing of the gazebo, and said to the courtiers downstairs: "Go get some tea."

After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian turned around and sat down at the tea table, and said to Fang Yiai: "My brother-in-law, please sit down."

Fang Yixin knew that Li Chengqian had something to say, but due to the prince's weird temper, it was hard to ask, so she just nodded while sitting on the table, thinking about Li Chengqian's thoughts in her heart.

The two were stunned for about a cup of tea, and with the tea brought by the courtiers, they broke the deadlock in the attic.

"Back off, no one is allowed to come up and disturb."

"According to the order."

After the courtier left, Li Chengqian made an unexpected move for Fang Yiai.

"This is the herbal tea from the Imperial Medical Office." Li Chengqian walked up to Fang Yi'ai, poured a cup of tea for him, then took out a piece of white pastry from the candied fruit plate, and said, "My brother-in-law, try a piece of goat cheese."

"Prince, I don't dare." Fang Yiai took the goat cheese with both hands, watched Li Chengqian return to his seat, and tasted it dubiously.

"How is it?" Li Chengqian said with a smile while drinking herbal tea, "This is the honey chrysanthemum tea newly formulated by the Imperial Medical Office, and it has a good effect in reducing fire."

"Chen Yuyi is really proficient in Qihuang. This tea tastes good, maybe mixed with herbs." Fang Yiai didn't have the leisure to drink tea, took a sip, and prevaricated.

Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled wryly, "Brother Yu, do you hate Xiao Wang in your heart?"

"Fang Jun doesn't dare." Fang Yiai answered with cupped hands, and said in his heart, "Sure enough, there is something wrong."

"Xiao Wang was a little disrespectful to you earlier, brother-in-law Yu, don't take it to heart." Li Chengqian thought that these two sentences were very prevarication, and simply said: "Have brother-in-law Yu ever mentioned Xiao Wang's leg disease to anyone?"

"This!" Fang Yiai didn't expect Li Chengqian to be so straight to the point, he hesitated, and responded: "I just talked to Shu'er in my boudoir."

"With Shu'er?" Li Chengqian nodded and sighed softly, "It's okay to whisper in the boudoir."

Li Chengqian looked at Fang Yiai and saw his respectful and humble face, which made him very happy. Then he thought of Changsun Wuji's arrogant and stern face when he was talking to him, and his teeth itch with hatred, "My brother-in-law and uncle Changsun are afraid The contradiction is getting deeper."

"Huh? Why did the prince say that?"

"To tell you the truth, Uncle Changsun told Xiao Wang earlier that my brother-in-law had ridiculed Xiao Wang's leg disease in front of everyone."

"Nothing at all! How dare Fang Jun talk about the prince?!"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Chengqian's cup lid, which was used to smooth out the tea, was buckled on the teacup. He looked up at Fang Yiai, with helplessness and desolation in his eyes, and said in a thought-provoking tone: "What? In the eyes of my brother-in-law, is Xiao Wang still the heir apparent?"
