I run a newspaper in ancient times

Using facial paralysis and icy hostility to isolate everyone from the outside, Fan Zhiyuan's tricks have always been unfavorable in the past few years.

However, when he met Prince Yi, all these barbed defenses collapsed immediately, but in one night, he had nothing to do with Li Li, neither hard nor soft, it seemed that he was the only way to go.

In the early morning of the next day, several generals of the Fan family's army came to knock on the door. They walked all the way to the school grounds, and saw Fan Zhiyuan was getting up early to practice. He looked the same as usual.

Huo Xiaoxiang pulled Xiao Fei aside, looked left and right, and said, "That...Prince Yi didn't go back last night, did he?"

"No, I stayed." Xiao Fei replied with folded arms.

Immediately, the eyes of these people stared, Huo Xiaoxiang rubbed his hands and said: "Let me just say, Prince Yiyi is obsessed with the general, once he enters the door, he will never go back again, so he will try his best to stay. Come, come, willing to bet, give me money, give me money!"

Deng Ping took off the purse on his waist, rubbed his chin and said, "It shouldn't be, with our general's indifference, how could we cause such a big trouble. If the prince stayed last night, the world would be turned upside down." ?”

Lu Jin glanced at Fan Zhiyuan, and said with emotion: "This progress is too fast, by the way, where does the prince sleep?"

Speaking of which, everyone looked at Xiaofei curiously, and the latter said, "The next yard."

Whoa!so close!It's only the first day!

Huo Xiaoxiang said with emotion: "Tsk, I never knew that the general is actually a broken sleeve. Let's miss it. But the prince's appearance is understandable."

The rest couldn't help but nodded.

Xiaofei couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth when he thought of the weird thing called a mask last night.

Fan Jiajun who returned to Beijing were all idlers, taking advantage of Fan Zhiyuan's practice, these few came to see the first scene early in the morning, and then sat on the side talking about it.

When Fan Zhiyuan came over wiping his sweat, Huo Xiaoxiang directly asked, "General, when shall we prepare the gift?"

Fan Zhiyuan was puzzled when he heard the words, what congratulatory gift?

"The lord has seen all the good things, but the general guess is that he doesn't like them. It's really sad." Lu Jin continued.

Fan Zhiyuan's eyes fell on Xiaofei, who shrugged his shoulders, and the corner of his mouth moved towards the place where Li Li lived, which meant it was self-evident.

Fan Zhiyuan: "..." I'm really full!

Can you drive them all out?

Li Li went to bed late last night, so she never got up early this morning to catch up on sleep. By the time she appeared gracefully in front of people, the sun was already high.

As soon as he appeared, the eyes of these generals fell on him in unison.

Even Fan Zhiyuan couldn't help but glance at his face.

Not to mention the dark circles and bloodshot eyes, his whole face was radiant. He sipped his health-care scented tea, with a slight smile on his lips, and how beautiful he was shaking his fan.

Regardless of gender, it is really pleasing to the eye.

He couldn't help but think of the black mud last night, it turned out that it really had some effect.

But the others were concerned about another matter. Huo Xiaoxiang pulled Xiaofei's sleeves again, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you wake up so late, what did you do last night?"

When they said this, their eyes were shining, their backs were slightly straight, and they seemed to be ready to receive a big news.

Xiaofei thought for a while and replied, "It was late to play chess."

so normal?

"Didn't anything else happen?" Lu Jin asked unwillingly.

"What else do you mean?" Xiaofei asked suspiciously.

"Pfft—" There was a laugh from the side, and Li Li came up and said with a smile, "Of course it's mandarin ducks playing in the water, upside-down phoenixes, red being overturned, fish and water... Huan, tsk, isn't it?" ah?"

Fan Zhiyuan almost spit out a sip of water, he looked at Li Li with a faint look of horror, as if he was asking: Can such shameful words be said in public?

And Xiao Fei was shocked in place: In terms of thickness of skin, is there anyone in this world who can surpass Prince Yi?

Li Li acted as if nothing had happened, and waved his fan leisurely: "What's the matter? I'm sexually inclined, and the person I like is in front of me. How can anyone not think so?" After finishing speaking, he gave Fan Zhiyuan another resentful look. , "It's a pity, a certain person is as stupid as a piece of wood, and he lost his good figure for nothing!"

Huo Xiaoxiang looked at Fan Zhiyuan's body tense because of these words. Under Li Li's scrutiny, if it wasn't for the man's self-esteem that didn't allow him to retreat, he even wanted to stay away and hide!

Seeing this, Huo Xiaoxiang moved towards Deng Ping involuntarily, and said in a low voice: "The general is calm even in the face of heavy encirclement. I never thought that being molested by the prince would make him feel like an enemy! I know it, just for one night." In the time it takes, he has been eaten to death."

"The general is not the prince's opponent at all, and he is retreating steadily." Deng Ping sighed.

Others don't know, they have been fighting with Fan Zhiyuan for so many years, they actually know very well that Fan Zhiyuan is a gentleman in his bones, and to put it plainly, he wants to save face.

If such a shameless person meets a shameless person, wouldn't he have to retreat steadily?

These whisperers were also funny, their voices were so loud, seeing Fan Zhiyuan's black and white face, almost on the verge of breaking out, Li Li knew it was time to stop and not go too far.

He got up and said goodbye: "Thank you General for your hospitality yesterday, there are other affairs in the mansion, so I won't disturb you, so I will leave."

This sound was heavenly to Fan Zhiyuan, he was eager for the first time, for fear that Li Li would regret it and continue to stay here: "My lord, please."

It was exactly the same as sending away the plague god and begging not to come back.

Seeing this, Li Li wrinkled his nose unhappily, thought for a while, and before stepping out the door, he turned his head and looked at Fan Zhiyuan with a smile: "General, yesterday's bed was a bit narrow, and I'm not used to sleeping well. Don't be surprised if someone brings a big bed over."

As soon as this remark came out, Fan Zhiyuan subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Just kidding, is it possible to send the bed here and plan to live here often in the future?Every day when he looked up and saw him down, Fan Zhiyuan felt that he was going crazy.

However, before he could find an excuse to decline, he heard Li Li continue to say: "By the way, why don't you give me two, anyway, the one in your room will have to be replaced sooner or later, so why not once and for all?"

That smiling face clearly looked innocent and expectant, but Fan Zhiyuan still saw a hint of threat from it - you refuse to try?Sleep next door this time, and sleep on your bed next time!

It was the first time in the world that General Fan, who had always been avoided by people, was forced into such a situation by a dude who only knows how to do light work.

Fan Zhiyuan really wanted to ask what he likes about him, can he change it?

But in the end, this sentence, which was similar to surrender, was held in his throat and he didn't say it. It was related to his self-esteem, and he was still unwilling to admit defeat.

Li Li picked up the fan to cover half of his face, revealing those cat-like eyes, seeing Fan Zhiyuan's aggrieved look, he smiled heartily, rolled his eyes, and said softly: "Hey, General, wait for me Message, see you later."

Gone, gone, finally gone.

After Li Li and his followers completely disappeared from sight, Fan Zhiyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.But when he turned around, all his subordinates stared at him dumbfounded, they all saw that scene just now.

"General, if you don't, just accept your fate!" Huo Xiaoxiang shed tears of sympathy.

If Fang Zhiyuan had fought with a master, then Fan Zhiyuan would have been pressed on the ground and rubbed against him, without any chance to resist.

Facing the empty alley leading to Prince Yi's mansion, several people showed expressions of concern.

A straight fool who only knows how to kill the enemy on the frontier battlefield is indeed no match for a politician wandering in the waves of power in the capital, and his eyes are different.

Fan Zhiyuan had no choice but to deal with Li Li, but it was too easy to deal with this group of subordinates.

Since everyone has nothing to do, they should all go to the outskirts of Beijing to train soldiers, so as not to be an eyesore in front of him.

After everyone left, Tian Bo had the opportunity to ask Fan Zhiyuan about what happened last night.

When it came to talking about Xiaofang and Yu Zicheng's confessions, Tian Bo and Xiaofei were completely stunned.

Xiaofei murmured, "You know all of this..."

But Tian Bo immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "This old servant thought he was careful in secret, but he didn't expect that he was under the watchful eyes of the prince and exposed the identity of the young master. He really deserves death!"

He was anxious and flustered, his composure had completely disappeared, and he wished he could die to apologize.

It was the same when Fan Zhiyuan was pointed out by Li Li. He even wanted to silence him, but he went to the palace once and climbed over the wall twice. As Li Li said so badly, he might really have such a life-and-death friendship, so He has calmed down.

"Get up, it's not your fault, it's the prince's skillful means, and he and I will get what we need, so there's no need to worry."

People say that the way to quickly get in touch with each other is to do an unknown bad thing together, which has been fully verified at this moment.

As a survivor of injustice back then, seeing Shi Yu who suffered the same situation silently being protected by Li Li, Fan Zhiyuan changed his view of him.

And this change made Tianbo and Xiaofei fully understand: Prince Yi is an ancestor who cannot be messed with, and must be well sacrificed.

After Li Li returned to the mansion, the Queen Mother's order arrived.

Li Li didn't come home last night, the Queen Mother heard about it, and she was also furious!

It was useless for Emperor Yan to persuade him with good words, and he said with a headache: "Mother, I really have no way to throw Fan Zhiyuan to Beijiang again."

"I don't care about Ai's family, Ah Li is so ridiculous, just running with others like this, not staying at home at night, sooner or later you will suffer!" The queen mother was so angry that she kept patting the handrail, and the queens and concubines around her couldn't persuade her.

As soon as Li Li saw this posture, she wanted to run back, but unfortunately, the waiter had sharp eyes and went to report in no time.

"You bastard, come in for Ai's family!" Li Li's shoulders slumped, and he could only grin his teeth and walk in. When he saw the Queen Mother whose eyebrows were all raised, he immediately begged for mercy, "Mother, please spare me!"

……

In front of the Small Buddha Hall, Li Li was sitting cross-legged, holding a plate of crystal grapes in his hand, eating one by one to his heart's content.

The Queen Mother came in and lit a stick of incense to the Bodhisattva, and then said to Li Li: "As for Concubine Zhuang, I knew what she was going to do as soon as she chose the place of Yongning Palace. Trouble your brothers."

"Shen Song has already been targeted by Prime Minister Zuo, and sooner or later everyone will know about it." Li Li said.

The Empress Dowager sighed: "It will hurt the face of the royal family."

"Is there such a thing as face in the royal family? Everyone knows that the emperor is... tsk, useless." Li Li threw a grape into his mouth, spit out the peel after a while, and said coquettishly to the Queen Mother with a smile, "Mother, So sweet."

The Empress Dowager gave him an angry look, her face full of doting.

Li Li grew up in front of the Empress Dowager and endured hardships in the cold palace together, so this bond is naturally stronger and deeper than that of Emperor Yan.

The Empress Dowager said: "Once this happens, Concubine Zhuang may have no way out."

Li Li pursed his lips, his eyes darkened: "Someone will always be sacrificed." He said and looked at the Queen Mother, "Didn't the Queen Mother deal with Concubine Zhuang?"

"It's a mess now, and the capital has been moved. There are only a few old people in total. Ai's family is getting old. It's sad to see her die." The queen mother raised her hand and wiped the corners of Li Li's mouth with a handkerchief. water stains.

"The queen mother wants her to live, so she has to hide this matter. Why don't the queen mother give her son a decree at that time? I will be vague in the tabloids, and it can be regarded as saving face for the royal family. I don't care about the rest. Mausoleum can do anything." Li Li peeled a grape and sent it to the Queen Mother's mouth.

The Empress Dowager ate with a smile: "The Zhuang family will be grateful to you." The Zhuang family is similar to the former Shi family and has a high reputation among scholars. once.

"What does it have to do with me? It's obviously the empress dowager's kindness."

The Empress Dowager gave him an angry look: "Alright, Concubine Zhuang's birthday will be in three days, and Shen Song will definitely come."

"I believe Prime Minister Zuo will also send someone." Li Li said, "I've already prepared the headline for him in the next issue."

The queen mother was curious: "What will Prime Minister Zuo do?"

"There's nothing more legitimate than catching an assassin."

"A Li, Shen Song stepped down, who will take over the imperial army, have you thought about it?" asked the Queen Mother.

"Fan Zhiyuan."

"He..." The Queen Mother frowned, looking at him suspiciously.

Li Li just smiled: "He is mine, brother Huang can use it."

The queen mother thought for a while: "I'm afraid this will not be easy."

"He is similar to Gu Rushi, except for the heavy party on his body, he has no stains. On the contrary, he doesn't need gossip and tabloids to create momentum. He is loved by the people. He is a general appointed by the imperial court. Marquis Wu Ning will definitely protect him. I can't find anyone more suitable than him."

"Ari, have you discussed with the emperor?"

"Let's go later, the emperor's brother will agree, and he doesn't have a better candidate." Li Li stood up, patted his buttocks, and sincerely bowed to the Bodhisattva, then turned around and said coquettishly to the queen mother , "Queen, I have already repented, so don't punish me?"

"You, take care of yourself!"

"A Li is full of eyes and minds, you can't suffer, don't worry." Li Li said with a smile and left the Buddhist hall.

Funing walked in, seeing the queen mother looking at Li Li's back, she couldn't help persuading: "My queen mother, although the prince is young, his heart is as bright as a mirror, so don't worry."

"He, he has been soft-hearted since he was a child. He is true to the emperor, and he is also to Fan Zhiyuan."
