Unparalleled Concubine

His Royal Highness the King of Wei reached out and knocked on the table, his voice lowered a bit: "Brother Xin, did you... see Father the other day?"

Li Xin nodded: "See you."

The Seventh Prince's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Father, what is his attitude towards you?"

Li Xin frowned and thought about it for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty mentioned to me the matter of the charcoal seller and the nine...nine princesses, but it was just a mention, and he didn't really pursue it."

His Royal Highness King Wei chuckled, "So, do you know Xiao Jiu's identity?"

Li Xin lowered his head and said, "I guessed something before, but now I confirm it."

"You, the school lieutenant, were also rewarded by the emperor?"

Li Xin nodded silently.

"Father didn't say anything else?"

Li Xin took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty... seems to want me to go back to Pingnanhou's mansion. Before leaving, he told me that Pingnanhou will return to the capital this year and let me have a good talk with him. .”

The Seventh Prince narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Li Xin: "What do you mean, Brother Xin?"

Li Xin replied without hesitation: "Since His Majesty asked me to talk to Pingnanhou, when Pingnanhou returns to Beijing, he will definitely see me, but it is unlikely that we can reach an agreement."

Li Xin's idea is to let Pingnan Marquis Li Shen kneel in front of his mother's grave to repent, but what is Li Shen's identity?He is the great general of the Zhu Kingdom at that time, Marquis of Pingnan, with a high position and authority. Li Xin didn't think he would bow his head to such a person.

His Royal Highness Wei Wang took a deep look at Li Xin, and lowered his voice: "This matter is nothing more than a matter of bowing your head or not bowing your head. After all, you and Ping Nanhou are related by blood. It is not shameful to bow your head to him. Royal father said, it will not be difficult for you to return to Pingnanhou's residence."

Li Xin smiled calmly: "I can bow my head to many people, but I cannot bow to Li Shen alone."

The seventh prince frowned: "Since the emperor pacified the world, I have never conferred a prince in the past few decades."

His voice was calm: "You have also seen that Li Chun, the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingnan, who is almost useless except for being brave and ruthless. As long as you return to the Marquis of Pingnan, the Marquis of Pingnan will definitely be you in the bag."

"Your Highness, I have mentioned this matter more than once."

Li Xin's complexion was a little ugly.

"I have nothing to do with Li Shen, let alone go to Pingnanhou's mansion."

The young man's voice was low: "I remember His Highness said that the future is Li Xin's own business. Why is it only a month, and His Highness is going to make a choice for Li Shen?"

The Seventh Prince frowned: "I just want to find a better way out for you."

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "If Your Highness mentions this matter again, Li Xin will have to go around when he sees His Highness in the future!"

"That's it, that's it."

His Royal Highness King Wei shook his head helplessly: "Let's not talk about this matter. This king has never forced things. If you don't like it, then forget it."

Speaking of this, His Royal Highness Wei Wang coughed and explained: "I have my own selfish intentions in telling you these things today, but it is more for your own good. Work hard, and those who can stand out are always those with a background. You have an identity, and everything you do in the future will be much smoother.

Li Xin lowered his head and spoke calmly: "One day, if Li Xin can assist His Highness to ascend the throne, he can become the background himself, and he doesn't need to climb other people's high branches."

The Seventh Prince smiled casually: "It's true."

"Brother Xin, among other things, your boldness alone is much higher than ordinary people."

His Royal Highness King Wei narrowed his eyes, and said softly: "If you have such thoughts, this king will not let you down. From now on, I will never mention Pingnanhou's Mansion, but I still have something to tell you."

He stood up from his seat and said calmly: "According to the news outside the capital, Li Shen, Marquis of Pingnan, is already on his way back to Beijing. According to the itinerary, it may take half a month or ten days. Come back to the capital."

Speaking of this, His Royal Highness Wei Wang chuckled: "This Marquis of Pingnan is not willing to return to Beijing easily. This time he returned to the capital, more or less because of you, Brother Xin. When he returns to Beijing, Brother Xin How should I deal with it?"

Since coming to this world, Li Xin spent almost every night in the memory of another "Li Xin", which led to a certain extent, the two Li Xin have slowly become one person , Hearing the news about Li Shen at this moment shocked Li Xin greatly.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Just take a step and look at it."

Chapter 80 The Angry Son of Heaven

In the 18th year of Chengde, it was February in a blink of an eye, and the weather was a little warmer. On the official road in the south of the capital, two people walked back and forth, with a middle-aged man in common clothes in front and a young man in the back.

The middle-aged man's skin is slightly dark, but his appearance is very handsome, and his two beards make him look a little chic. He is a middle-aged uncle who looks very good.

"Zhong Ming, where are you?"

The young man walking behind bowed his head and said, "Master Hou, it should be almost to the capital."

This young man spoke with a strong Shu accent, obviously from Bashu.

And this middle-aged man was Li Shen, Marquis of Pingnan who had not returned to Beijing for more than three years.

He is the Pingnanhou of the current dynasty, and he is also the great general of Zhuguo in the court. According to common sense, he has to bring at least dozens or hundreds of trilogy when he returns to Beijing in order to show his pomp, but this Pingnanhou But they only brought a young man with them, and the two of them returned to the capital very low-key.

Li Shen immediately stretched his waist, looked up at the capital not far in front of him, and muttered in a low voice: "I've really arrived in the capital, I haven't been back for several years, I almost don't recognize it."

After finishing speaking, he looked back at the young man behind him, and said with a smile, "It's getting dark soon, let's hurry up, this capital city is much more prosperous than those in southern Xinjiang, and I'll let you see it when I get back to the Hou Mansion."

Zhong Ming bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Lord Hou."

After speaking, the two of them raised their horses up quite a bit, and they arrived at the gate of the south city of the capital in less than a stick of incense. It was getting dark at this moment, and the soldiers guarding the city were about to close the gate. Li Shenzheng When he was about to call the door, he suddenly saw an old man with gray hair standing under the city gate.

The Marquis of Pingnan got off his horse, walked up to the old man, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Long time no see, Grand Duke, is he still in good shape?"

This old man was Chen Ju, the great eunuch who followed the Emperor of Chengde. Chen Ju waved his hands again and again and said respectfully: "In front of Lord Hou, you can't be a big character."

Marquis Pingnan and Emperor Chengde had a very good friendship in the early years, and they were almost called brothers, so Chen Ju didn't dare to put on airs in front of this Marquis.

Li Shen smiled, and said softly: "Your Majesty is busy with business, why are you waiting for me here when you have time?"

Chen Ju bowed his head and said, "Master Hou, Your Majesty is anxious to see you."

Li Shen pointed to the cloth clothes he was wearing, and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa, Li Shen came all the way from southern Xinjiang, not to mention the dust and dust, and he is also a bit sloppy, so let me go back to the Marquis Mansion, After bathing and changing clothes, and changing into court clothes, go to meet His Majesty."

Chen Ju bowed his head and said: "Don't embarrass me, Lord Hou. His Majesty specially asked me to wait here just to invite Lord Hou into the palace as soon as possible. I haven't seen you for many years. Your Majesty has always missed Lord Hou very much. "

Li Shen hesitated for a while, then said in a low voice: "Grandpa, I also miss His Majesty very much, but if I wear this suit, I will offend the holy driver..."

Chen Ju said in a low voice: "Well, Lord Hou, you follow me into the palace first, I will send someone to the Hou's mansion to take your court clothes, and send them to the palace quickly, so you can change your clothes in the palace, no matter what."

Li Shen nodded and said with a smile, "In this case, Grandpa will lead the way."

As he said that, he turned his head to look at the attendants behind him, and said calmly: "This Marquis is going to the palace to face the saint, you go back to the Marquis Mansion and report the safety of the family on behalf of Ben Hou."

Zhong Ming lowered his head and said, "Yes."

………………

An hour later, it was completely dark.
