The Grand Princess

Chapter 126: Cloth porridge (one more)

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over.

As a prince, Li Chuan has always acted cautiously. After so many years, Li Ming has thought of disposing of the prince countless times, but he has not found the actual mistake. Cui Yulang, a small official of the Ministry of Rites, has just joined the prince?

Li Ming was quite interested when he heard this, and immediately said, "I remember, Master Cui was an official of the Ministry of Rites, right? Why did you do the Yushitai thing?"

"Although the ministers are the Ministry of Rites, they are humble and light, but they dare not say anything about social affairs."

Cui Yulang said with a look of righteousness, Li Rong couldn't help turning back, and couldn't help wondering if Cui Yulang really caught Li Chuan.

She panicked a little bit. She asked Cui Yulang to play Li Chuan, but she didn't make him mess up.

Li Chuan raised his eyebrows from a high place. He himself knew what he had done. He really couldn’t think of any serious matter that he had committed. So he was also curious and said directly: "Master Cui said so seriously, then Let's talk about it."

"Your Majesty," Cui Yulang said bitterly when he heard Li Chuan's playful words, "In recent years, natural and man-made disasters have caused the people to live out of their lives. Not to mention last year, it is said that this year's ice disaster, the people's grievances, such a heavenly vision is due to the prince. No virtue..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Before Cui Yulang finished speaking, Li Ming became angry.

This kind of natural disaster has no substantive point. First of all, the unscrupulous person is not the prince, but the emperor. Where Li Ming can let him go, he grabbed the zipper and hit Cui Yulang on him, and said angrily: "Take this **** thing to me. Go down and fight! You can speak these weird and chaotic words above the court?"

"Your Majesty," Cui Yulang hurriedly knelt down and said anxiously, "Last year, the Ministry of Rites organized the autumn festival. His Royal Highness sneezed during the sacrifice process. This action may offend God and commit great disrespect!"

Hearing that Li Chuan was clearly wrong, the expression on Li Ming's face eased a little. Gu Zidao, the minister of rites, gave Cui Yulang who was kneeling on the ground coldly, and stepped out: "Your Majesty, last year, His Royal Highness was suffering from a cold. When the sacrifice is completed, the sincerity of the heart can be seen by God. God has the virtue of living well, and the prince is wise. He will never be dissatisfied with a sneeze. Although there have been some disasters in some areas in recent years, it is nothing special. Daxia has a vast territory. Part of the disaster every year is normal, and it is too reluctant to forcibly involve the punishment of heaven."

Gu Zidao turned his head, looked at Cui Yulang, and drank softly: "Those who confuse the crowd with such a demon, should be punished!"

Gu Zidao opened his mouth, and the officials agreed. Li Chuan didn't move, and he didn't bother to pay attention to Cui Yulang's clown. Li Rong didn't bother to look again, just wanting to kill this idiot in the court.

What's wrong? You deserve to be punished if you talk so inconsiderate.

Cui Yulang saw Li Rong's eyes and the gesture of turning his head to look no more. He was aggrieved and embarrassed. He also felt a little embarrassed to work with Li Rong to do this for the first time. But what can we do?

He really couldn't find anything to participate in.

The court shouted at him for a while. Li Ming finally opened his mouth and said, "Although Mrs. Cui said something absurd, it is not unreasonable. Let's go. Mrs. Cui will fine him for two months. , The prince... the prince went to the ancestral temple today, and knelt for another night, so as to give an explanation about the autumn festival last year."

When Li Ming said this, Li Chuan's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes felt a little cold.

All the ministers present frowned, but did not say much.

After all, I went to the ancestral temple to kneel for a night to show my sincerity and filial piety, and I couldn't find anything wrong, and it was really not a big deal. It just means that Cui Yulang was looking for trouble, but in the end it was punished two people. From this point of view, it was unfair anyway.

Li Rong could see clearly, Li Ming's meaning was very clear, it was nothing to trouble Li Chuan.

What he hopes is that the people below can find more trouble for Li Chuan.

Li Rong couldn't help but smile, but her heart was a little cold. She is so, let alone Li Chuan?

After all, Li Chuan was still young. Although he tried to endure it, he still saw a bit of anger on the face. After waiting for the next morning, Li Chuan walked out of the hall with his own people. When passing by Cui Yulang, he could not help but stop. Stepped forward and called out: "Master Cui."

When Cui Yulang heard this, his heart felt a little cold, but he couldn't hold back at this moment. He was still waiting for the people behind, so he responded with momentum, "Your Highness."

"In the future, the affairs of the court still need to be carefully weighed. Master Cui has been an official soon, and if you have problems in the officialdom, you might as well consult your seniors."

"Prince Xie pointed."

Cui Yulang was in a cold sweat behind him, and Li Chuan did not return to him, leading the people down the steps, and then went out.

Li Rong then stepped out of the hall, passing by Cui Yulang, whispered: "It's okay."

Li Chuan was reborn and wouldn't do anything to Cui Yulang.

If it were Li Chuan in the late last life, it would really be possible to do something, but the seventeen-year-old Li Chuan knew nothing more.

It is impossible for him to treat Cui Yulang for his own personal affairs.

But her mother heard about it, but she might not know it. She had to go to the palace and talk about it with her mother.

Moreover, since she and Pei Wenxuan got together, she hasn't been in the palace, and her mother must be worried about it too.

Thinking about it, Li Rong first sent people to the palace to inform Shangguan Yue, and then went directly to the harem.

When Li Rong passed to the harem, Cui Yulang just arrived at the gate of the palace and heard a palace lady calling him: "Master Cui."

Cui Yulang paused, and the maid came forward and whispered: "Today, the painting teacher taught by His Royal Highness King Su cannot come here because of illness. Empress Roux asked the slave and maidservant to ask, is it convenient for Master Cui today?"

When Cui Yulang heard this, he laughed and said respectfully: "It is a blessing for the minister to be able to serve His Highness."

When Li Rong arrived at Weiyang Palace, there was noise again inside.

This is also commonplace. Every time something happened in the previous dynasty, Shangguan Yue always scolded Li Chuan.

"You are soft-hearted. You can't do anything like this. How can you tell me and your sister to rely on you in the future? Then Cui Yulang opened this head, what will you do in the future? Seeing those ministers gain power and trouble you?"

Listening to Shangguanyue's roar, Li Rong turned her head to look at the mother who led her in. This mother was Shangguanyue's dowry, and she was also Shangguanyue's confidant. Seeing Li Rong look over, the mother said in a low voice: "Everyone is cleaned up, your Highness can rest assured, the old slave will only send His Highness here."

Li Rong nodded, knowing that after all her mother had been in the palace for so many years, it was impossible to travel on such matters.

She stepped in and said with a smile: "Where is this singing again? Why did I come back when I saw my mother scolding my brother."

"Dare you still say?!"

As soon as Li Rong made a sound, Shangguan Yue immediately turned her head and cursed: "It's different from such a big deal. I discussed it in advance. If something goes wrong, I won't enter the palace and discuss it with me. How long has it been? , Come now, do you still have me as a mother in your heart?!"

"Mother, sister is also sad." Li Chuan said quickly, "Don't scold her..."

"Shut up!" Shangguanyue scolded her daughter and scolded her son. He turned around and stared at Li Chuan, "You should reflect on yourself."

Li Rong is accustomed to Shangguanyue's temperament. She is kind to her, and she rarely beats or scolds since she was a child, but is extremely harsh on Li Chuan. Now that she got involved in the future of Li Chuan's prince after she got married, Shangguanyue slowly treated them equally, wanting to take care of everything.

Li Rong smiled and helped Shangguanyue to sit down, and said gently: "Don't be too angry, empress. You are easy to get angry and hurt your liver. Just talk about everything."

With that, Li Rong brought tea to Shangguanyue, and sat next to Shangguanyue: "Why did you quarrel today?"

"I heard that Cui Yulang joined him," Shangguanyue knocked the teacup on the table, raised his finger at Li Chuan, and said angrily, "I asked him to teach this ignorant child, but he refused. Your father What do you mean by the emperor, don't you understand? I opened Cui Yulang's head today. If Chuan'er doesn't shock them, I don't know how much trouble it will have to find Chuan'er in the future!"

Li Chuan tightened his lips. Shangguanyue saw his appearance and was not angry. He turned to look at his daughter, and saw Li Rong smiling, but somehow she felt a little bit of fear, remembering last year. When she came to Li Rong, she felt it was difficult to say too strong, so she softened her voice, seemingly aggrieved: "Although you and I are both high-ranking, they are women in the end. The honor and disgrace are all tied to Chuan'er. There was a mistake, what should we do? I was planning for him, but he wouldn't listen. How is his temper like a prince? If I have one more son..."

"Mother," Li Rong interrupted Shangguanyue's words, and said peacefully, "Sip tea first."

Shangguanyue also knew that she was lost. She went silent. Li Rong got up and helped Li Chuan to sit up. Li Chuan lowered his head and did not speak, but when Li Rong wanted him to sit next to Shangguanyue, he sat there. By Li Rong.

Li Rong was caught between the mother and the son, feeling a bit embarrassed. She took a sip of tea, eased her emotions, and coughed lightly, "I'm here today to talk about Cui Yulang."

"Sister," Li Chuan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Although Cui Yulang participated in me, he didn't make any mistakes. No need..."

"Cui Yulang is my person."

Li Rong spoke boldly, Li Chuan, Li Chuan suddenly raised his head, Shangguan Yue also looked over in shock, Li Rong took a sip of tea, and slowly said: "See you, I asked him to do it. Don't move him."

He said "you", but Li Rong mainly looked at Shangguanyue.

Shangguan Yue looked at Li Rong in a daze, and said, "Rong'er, what are you..."

"Mother Queen," Li Rong laughed. She looked at Shangguan Yue and said gently, "Chuan'er is not young anymore, we can't wait for Concubine Rou to sit up, can we?"

"You want to move Concubine Rou?" Shangguan Yue frowned, "But what does Cui Yulang have to do with this? And your father has been protecting her, you want to move her..."

"Don't worry about the queen," Li Rong calmed her, "I have my own measures."

Shangguan Yue hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. After discussing the business, the atmosphere became a little embarrassing for a while. Shangguan Yue took a sip of tea and hesitated for a while before asking about Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan: "You and Pei Wenxuan are separated, I also know about it."

She said slowly: "There is nothing to do. If you still like him, wait until the time is right in the future, and then be together again."

It's just that, a man who will choose and leave for power, her daughter may not choose.

What kind of temperament Li Rong is, she can't be more clear as a mother.

It's just that she knew Li Rong, who was 19 years old.

Li Rong smiled and didn't say much about it. She chatted with Shangguanyue for a while. Shangguanyue persuaded her a few words. After the mother and son had lunch, Shangguanyue felt tired. She went to take a nap first. Leave Li Rong and Li Chuan sitting.

Li Chuan kept silent, and Li Rong glanced at him: "Why, after quarreling with my mother, I ignored me?"

"how come?"

Li Chuan smiled bitterly: "I just feel a little tired and want to take a break."

Li Rong knew that he lied. No matter who he was, he was treated like this by his father in the morning, and then his mother told him that if he had another son, he felt uncomfortable. Li Rong slowed down for a while, then slowly said, "Don't worry about what the queen mother said. She is also anxious."

Li Chuan listened and whispered: "It's okay."

He raised his hand and poured tea for Li Rong: "What the queen said is correct."

The sound of tea dripped into the cup, and Li Chuan seemed to be really tired. He was still a teenager, but he was a bit tired of the world.

"If the mother and the queen have one more son, maybe everyone will have a better life. I don't have to be a prince, and the mother doesn't have to count on me."

Li Rong looked up at him, Li Chuan put down the teapot and leaned on the back of the chair: "If sister is a prince, I don't have to be involved."

"Chuan'er..."

"I'll just talk about it," Li Chuan laughed, "I know that Sister A will not blame me, so I just talk about it. I know," Li Chuan didn't know whether to tell Li Rong or listen to it by himself. The mother and queen have given a lot for me. Since I have enjoyed this glory, there is no reason to shrink back. Sister, don't worry, I will slow down."

Li Rong was speechless. The siblings sat for a while. Li Chuan lay on the chair. He closed his eyes and rested for a while. Li Rong stayed beside him. The siblings sat in the courtyard. Li Rong looked at the courtyard. The spring flowers in full bloom, guarding Li Chuan by her side, suddenly felt an unspeakable sadness coming up.

In her life, with Pei Wenxuan, waiting for Li Chuan to become the emperor, waiting for family disputes to be resolved, she would have power, love, and freedom.

But Li Chuan's life has no end. He has to be trapped in the palace all his life, for his mother, for her, for Shangguan family, for the people, for Daxia, not for himself alone.

"How is Qin Lin in the northwest?"

Li Chuan seemed to slow down. He asked about business. Li Rong turned around and nodded and said: "It's okay. He and his uncle are alone in the frontline city. There is war on the frontline. Xiao Su didn't want to send his own people. Put them on the front line, and Qin Lin wants soldiers, and he sends people over whom he can't control. When these people reach the front line, they all become Qin Lin's people."

Li Rong slowly said, "Except for the lack of money, everything else is fine now."

Li Chuan nodded, he thought for a while and said, "The money is here, I'll send it privately..."

"I'll find a way," Li Rong interrupted him, "Come on your side. If you are found out, you can't tell."

Li Chuan hesitated for a moment, then responded.

After the two discussed specifically for a while, the time was about the same, and Li Chuan was going to leave. Before he left, he suddenly remembered: "Say," he hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "How is Xun Chuan?"

Li Rong didn't expect Li Chuan to ask about Xun Chuan. She raised her head and couldn't help laughing: "Why do you think about asking her?"

"She is because of me," Li Chuan smiled bitterly, saying a little bit hard, "because she was forced to leave. So in my heart, there is always a bit of guilt and care. I hope she can have a good life, and feel like she is herself. She was evading her own guilt, and she was doing well, and I was less guilty."

"Anything else?"

Li Rong asked with a smile. Li Chuan thought for a while, turned his head to look at the spring flowers in the garden, and smiled: "Occasionally I dream, when I saw it for the first time. I don't know why, other than that. Besides, after all, I’m not familiar with it, what else can there be."

Li Rong listened, but also believed. After all, neither of them had spoken a few times in their lives.

"She's doing well." Li Rong said slowly, "I wrote a few days ago that Qin Lin took her to fight a few battles and gave her some people. Originally asked her to take a good look at the news in the northwest and find Xiao Su. Trouble, as a result, she followed up to the battlefield a few times, and she liked it and asked me if I could. Where can I stop her?" Li Rong took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The letters she recently wrote to me are all in words A lot lighter."

"That's good."

Hearing this, Li Chuan thought for a while and laughed.

"A good time, just fine."

With that said, Li Chuan saluted Li Rong and separated from Li Rong.

Li Rong stayed alone in the palace for a while before standing up and leaving the palace alone.

She sat in the carriage for a while and felt a little noisy. She couldn't help but lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that there was a crowded place on the street, and it seemed that someone was making porridge.

Li Rong stopped the carriage and looked in that direction for a while, asking people to find out what was going on.

The guard rushed over, and while Li Rong was waiting, she saw a young man in white gesturing among the crowd, flickering and disappearing as the figure moved.

When Li Rong recognized the person, he probably guessed what was going on here. During the famine years, the Su family would be on the street for disaster relief three days a month.

Knowing the situation, Li Rong lost interest. She was about to lower the curtain and leave when she saw a young man in commoner walking in front of Su Rongqing. He handed him a piece of paper. Su Rongqing said a few words to him, and the other nodded. Then they led the young man to leave.

Li Rong couldn't help frowning at this sight.

She stared at Su Rongqing and didn't let it go. The other party seemed to have noticed Li Rong's gaze. He raised his head and looked over through the shuttle crowd.

The eyes of the two met for a moment, and Su Rongqing nodded, then turned around and went to work on her own.

The guard also turned back and whispered: "His Royal Highness, today is Su's cloth porridge."

Li Rong nodded, and then said: "I just saw someone take a piece of paper to ask Master Su, and then he was led away. What is this doing?"

"I just asked," the guard replied, "The Su family has taken special care of the candidates this year. As long as they are scholars and take their own poems, they can directly find anyone from the Su family and they can be placed until the imperial examination list is released. "

Li Rong frowned.

Su Rongqing's move is more appealing than being a chief examiner of the imperial examination.

Li Rong was silent for a moment, and whispered: "Go to Master Pei, just say tonight..."

Li Rong hesitated for a moment, thought about the most suitable place, and finally said: "In front of Yuelao Temple, I will bring a mask painted with peach blossoms and wait for him on the street."
