Unparalleled Concubine

"Okay, what's wrong?"

Jiuniang smiled calmly: "There is no need to greet people with a smiling face here. I live my own little life every day, writing, playing the piano, and living a good life."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Sister Cui's habit is fine."

Because someone's identity changed, Cui Jiuniang's identity also changed. Now she can no longer show her face, but she can't enter the palace, so she can only live in this small courtyard in embarrassment.

Li Xin smiled and said: "Sister Cui, is there anything missing here? If there is anything missing, I will send someone to bring it to you."

Jiu Niang smiled inexplicably: "Don't say that there is no shortage, even if it is missing, I can't take it from you."

"Why not?"

Li Xin looked calm: "If His Majesty is unhappy, I will take care of it."

"How many times can you carry it?"

Jiu Niang sighed for a long time, then felt that it was rare to see Li Xin once, she shouldn't be frowning, so she smiled again.

"How is Hou Ye doing these days?"

"It's all good."

Jiuniang smiled and said, "What about Xiaoxiao, how is the child doing?"

"She has a playmate now, and she's not as withdrawn as she used to be, which is fine."

Li Xin also sighed.

"After this period of time has passed, I can take her to see Sister Cui."

Jiu Niang smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I'll wait for Lord Hou."

The moonlight spread down, illuminating the two people standing at the door.

Chapter 391

In fact, Li Xin knew that Cui Jiuniang lived here, but now it is not convenient for the two of them to meet each other, so they have not seen each other for a long time.

The reason why I came to see her tonight was because Emperor Taikang was too busy to take care of himself at the moment, and it was unlikely that he would pay attention to Cui Jiuniang again. Li Xin took this opportunity to take a look at the first nobleman he met in the capital.

Li Xin was able to change from a penniless farmer to the high-ranking Marquis of Jing'an. He could not rely on his own efforts alone. In fact, he met many nobles. Among these nobles are the current Emperor Taikang and the Emperor Chengde. There are also Chen Guogong Ye Sheng, Ningling Marquis Ye Lin, countless, but without exception, these people are all utilitarian.

Only this Cui Jiuniang, when she first met Li Xin, was only moved by compassion.

No matter what the original intention is, as long as he helps Li Xin, Li Xin will keep it in his heart. After all, regardless of his deeds, Cui Jiuniang's affection is much more sincere than others.

After a few words with Cui Jiuniang, Li Xin left the alley.

Knowing that she was doing well, Li Xin was relieved. As for other things, it was beyond Li Xin's ability to ask.

In fact, at this juncture, if Li Xin went to the palace and asked Emperor Taikang to take Cui Jiuniang into the palace, Emperor Taikang would probably happily nod in agreement for Li Xin's sake, but this is after all There is no need for Li Xin to deal with the emperor's family affairs, nor should he waste his affection to do something he shouldn't do.

Be a person and do things, you have to be careful.

After returning home to rest for a night, Li Xin went directly to Chen Guogong's mansion the next day.

This day is the auspicious day of the zodiac calculated by Qin Tianjian, and he is going to formally learn from Chen Guogong Ye Cheng.

In fact, there was no need to be so anxious at first, and the original date was not today, but things changed. The emperor sent a note overnight to ask Qin Tianjian to change the date and advance the apprenticeship.

Because the matter happened in a hurry and there was no time to inform, not many people came to watch the ceremony early in the morning.

Li Xin met the Great Jin God of War in Old Man Ye's courtyard.

The Marquis of Jing'an saluted respectfully.

"Master Ye, good morning."

It's actually autumn now, but Ye Cheng is still wearing unlined clothes, he glanced at Li Xin lightly, and sighed slightly: "What's going on?"

The day of apprenticeship was suddenly brought forward, and with Old Man Ye's sensitivity to politics, he could naturally guess what happened.

Li Xin knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he smiled and said: "Ye Shihui, in fact, nothing major happened, but yesterday I saw people from the Zheng family in Xingyang entering and leaving Pingnanhou's mansion, and after discussing with His Majesty, I felt that it was impossible for Pingnanhou Changes have taken place, so His Majesty decided to take control of the Imperial Army as soon as possible."

"Therefore, the apprentice's apprenticeship ceremony should be held in advance."

Ye Cheng glanced at Li Xin indifferently: "What did you guess?"

Li Xin lowered his head and said: "Master Ye doesn't know. Recently, disasters have been reported in various places, either droughts or floods, or earth dragons and hurricanes. It was a scene of doomsday. Originally, His Majesty didn't think it was strange, but these days His Majesty discovered that someone may have lied about it. Disaster."

"They lied about the disaster in order to give the civil officials in the court a reason to attack His Majesty's morality. At this time, the Pingnan Army in southern Xinjiang can take advantage of the opportunity to plot rebellion in the name of abolishing the prince. !"

After hearing this sentence, Ye Cheng closed his eyes and thought for a while, then slowly said: "You mean that the Li family colluded with the Li family to make false reports of disasters in various places?"

The Dajin Ye family is different from other families. For example, the Zhong family and the country have a history of more than a hundred years. Even the Pingnan Hou Mansion was born out of the Li family in Zhaojun. They are all from a family. Chen Guogong's mansion is different. Ye Cheng was a Qiu Ba in the army when he was young, and he got to this position by himself. He is the first generation of the Ye family.

In other words, although the Ye family is considered an aristocratic family now, compared to other aristocratic families, they can only be regarded as nouveau riche, and the ancient aristocratic families look down on the Ye family very much.

So Ye Cheng looked down on them too.

Old man Ye naturally had a reason to look down on them. When Ye Cheng led troops into the capital of Northern Zhou, those aristocratic families trembled and came to the capital to seek peace.

"pretty close."

Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and said: "Except for those aristocratic families who can have such influence in the local area, it is difficult for other people to make the local officials work like this. The sky is high and the capital is far away. Even a few prime ministers can't do this."

Ye Cheng chuckled: "That kid Li Shen really has two tricks, he is trapped in the capital waiting to die, and he can still forcefully bring the situation to this point."

"It's mainly the waste prince."

Li Xin bowed his head and said: "At the beginning, the abolished prince should not have been allowed to escape from the capital. Without the abolished prince, Nanjiang would have to wait for death. It is impossible for those aristocratic families to risk their lives to support Pingnanhou's mansion."

Ye Cheng nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, it's not a big deal, the world is not so easy to mess up, His Majesty occupies the orthodoxy, as long as you don't make foolish tricks, those sneaky villains who are behind the scenes will have no chance. "

Old man Ye poured himself a glass of wine, and said slowly, "As you said, if the Zheng family in Xingyang and the Li family in Zhaojun end, then most of the families in the old Northern Zhou Dynasty will also end."

Speaking of this, Ye Cheng sneered and said: "When the old man invaded the capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he was already exhausted and unable to clean up these moths. Now is the right time to take this opportunity to clean up the world."

Li Xin smiled and said, "I'm afraid Master Ye won't be able to leave the capital."

Having said that, Li Xin paused for a moment, then continued to laugh and said, "The disciple's elder brother can't move either."

The brother Li Xin said was the general of Zhenbei Army, Ye Ming and Ye Shaobao.

Ye Cheng chuckled: "Isn't there another Ye Mao?"
