Chapter 56: The Hou Mansion Besieged All Beings

The awkward Li Jingchen and Qi Chengxuan separated and went back to their respective houses. When Qi Chengxuan passed by the wall of roses, he subconsciously stopped and looked back. Li Jingchen was the first and only one. Ever since Li Jingchen was by his side, the dreary days in the palace became lively.Li Jingchen's figure disappeared from sight, and Qi Chengxuan also turned his head to Luo Yexuan, feeling empty in his heart probably because of reluctance!

Li Jingchen walked on the familiar alley in the palace, followed by the little eunuch Bao Datong who had been leading him in and out of the palace. Bao Datong secretly followed Qi Chengxuan, only waiting for Qi Chengxuan to transfer him to his side before he could leave the smelly Wenxiang Pavilion , I don't know how Qi Chengxuan drew a big cake for Bao Datong, so that Bao Datong followed him wholeheartedly, and because of Bao Datong who was familiar with all the roads in the palace, Li Jingchen didn't have to waste too much time on the road, and Most of the walks were in shady places, which protected Li Jingchen from the scorching heat.

Li Jingchen now has a psychological shadow on the little eunuch. This group of people who are everywhere in the palace haunt the palace like ghosts. No one can know what kind of master is standing behind these people, how big the palace is, and the shadows. No matter how big it is, the ghosts and monsters hiding in the shadows are watching the prosperity of the palace, and how many poor people cling to wealth, power, and status all their lives, but in the end they get nothing.The winner stands on a high place and overlooks all living beings, while the loser becomes a lonely ghost in the shadows for a lifetime.

"Ah——" Li Jingchen sighed faintly, the place where Qi Chengxuan's lips touched the back of his neck was actually slightly tingling, reminding him not to be tempted, love and love are all illusory things, the most unreliable , let alone being contaminated by royal people.The Tian family is the most ruthless, and Li Jingchen doesn't want to be a victim of power.Laughing at myself, let's not talk about Qi Chengxuan's youthful nature, whether the liking will last long, just say that Qi Chengxuan, who is surly and capricious, can really be trusted in liking?

"Things that are illusory, what are you thinking about so much? It's really mediocre. Sigh!" Li Jingchen sighed with his hands tied, and just as he sighed, there was the sound of wheels rolling on the ground in front of him. When he looked up, he saw Wu Xingde driving Come in a hurry.

"Master!" Wu Xingde's expression was exhausted, but his eyes were bright, and the joy and excitement inside couldn't be ignored.

Li Jingchen frowned, "What happened to Uncle Xingde, why did you drive the car, and changed this one? What about Shuangquan?" Wu Xingde's car was not the green-draped carriage he was used to sitting in, and the yellow gauze hanging from the window At first glance, it looks like nothing ordinary. The whole car has a low-key luxury. Although there is no emblem, it is also known that it is not something that ordinary people can own.

"The mansion was surrounded by Jin Yiwei, and Shuangquan couldn't get out, so I went to the mansion of the Duke, and borrowed this carriage to pick up the young master." Wu Xingde jumped out of the car, opened the curtain to let Li Jingchen go up, After Li Jingchen sat down, he jumped into the carriage and made a sound of "driving", and the carriage quickly moved away from the palace gate. Then Wu Xingde continued, "Young master, the elder was driven into the palace by Jin Yiwei this morning. , the news came from the palace that he was kicked out without even seeing His Majesty's face, and was fined to kneel outside the imperial study. The same is true for Duke Sheng, but Duke Sheng is slightly better. After being scolded by the emperor He went back to the mansion, it is said that his face was livid and bloodless, Concubine Shu wanted to intercede for his father, and was invited back without even stepping into the palace gate of the imperial study."

Wu Xingde spoke happily, and his voice became louder unconsciously. Li Jingchen, who was sitting in the carriage, reprimanded him: "Uncle Xingde's voice should be quieter, don't be overjoyed, so as not to be seen by others."

Wu Xingde immediately closed the corners of his mouth, he also knew that he was reckless, but he was very happy to see Sheng Guogong and Li Renyuan being unlucky, and wished to invite his three or five friends to have a good meal to celebrate, but this is just delusional. In order not to cause trouble for the young master, what Wu Xingde needs is to be cautious and not get carried away, "What the young master said is that I got carried away with complacency."

"Jing Chen also understands Uncle Xingde's mood, but now is not the time to be happy, His Majesty's will is unpredictable, and no one can tell what will happen to Uncle Xingde and Duke Sheng!" The worst result is that Li Renyuan and Sheng Guogong was only reprimanded and punished a little, but he would not lose his title or lose his life, and his father would not be wronged.Killing two living and capable ministers for the sake of a dead subject is too uneconomical. Besides, in order to balance the ruling and the opposition, the emperor may not necessarily kill him. The Duke of Sheng has the military power in his hands, and the power is in the hands of the ruling and opposition parties. Why not? The bargaining chip for the emperor to rule the world.Thinking of this, Li Jingchen couldn't be happy, he was afraid of the worst result,

"Uncle Xingde, how is King Jin?"

"Almost at the same time that Jin Yiwei came to the mansion, Prince Jin also went to a large number of Jin Yiwei. King Jin was carried into the palace by Jin Yiwei. Jin Yiwei also found two boxes, one big and one small, from the mansion of King Jin. I know what it is!" Wu Xingde drove to avoid another carriage, and I don't know whether it was a psychological effect or another reason, the streets today seem to be less lively than in the past, "Master, maybe the box is the evidence of a crime, which is carried on the master's body. The grievances will be cleared.”

"It's not enough." Li Jingchen sneered, "What we have produced is far from enough. Alas, what is the current situation in the mansion?" How can relying on dead objects put the enemy to death.

"Surrounded by brocade guards, they are only allowed in and not out. There is an old lady guarding the mansion, but after all, the old lady has reached her age, and the owners of each house are determined, and the servants are panicked. It seems that someone is going to the corner gate to bribe the gatekeeper. Jin Yiwei was well ridiculed."

He can also guess a thing or two about the situation in the mansion. The masters have their own thoughts, and the servants also have their own ideas. If there is no old lady guarding above, they would have dispersed long ago. "Is this the way back to the mansion?" Li Jingchen looked around, he said that he was going to the Duke of Wei's mansion, but this road was obviously not the way to the mansion of the Duke of Wei.

Wu Xingde patted his forehead, "Look at my memory, I actually forgot to mention it. The Duke said that the young master should go back to the mansion directly after he returns from the palace. Maybe some troubles will happen if the old lady is alone in the mansion."

Li Jingchen nodded, knowing that Jin Yiwei was encircling the mansion, he wanted to go back to the mansion, but he was worried about his two younger brothers and sisters who were in his uncle's mansion, so he hoped to go back to Duke Wei's mansion first.Seeing that Li Jingchen listened, Wu Xingde didn't clamor to change the route to Weiguo Duke's Mansion. He was very happy. Taking advantage of the chaos in the mansion, it was time to establish his prestige. If he missed it, he would not do well in front of the old lady. "The Duke said that the young master and the young lady are fine, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Understood." Li Jingchen relaxed his body and leaned against the carriage, the wheels rolled, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he arrived at Yanglinghou's Mansion.

Jinyiwei guarded every place in and out of the Hou's mansion. The Jinyiwei in black robes and embroidered spring knives had a cold face and a serious face. Under their sharp eyes, not a single fly could fly out of the Yanglinghou's mansion.

Li Jingchen jumped out of the car, walked to the door, cupped his hands to the Jin Yiwei guarding the door and said: "Li Jingchen, the second son of the second house of the Marquis of Xiayangling, Li Jingchen, the captain of the middle base of the Qipin Province, is now coming back from the palace to accompany him to study."

The Jin Yiwei guarding the gate looked at Li Jingchen up and down with his sharp eyes, as if confirming his identity, and said after half the payment: "Li Xiaowei, please come in. I have always heard that General Li is a man of talent and mighty. Today I see Li Xiaowei. I know that the rumors are true, but it's a pity that General Li has been loyal all his life, but he ended up like this."

Li Jingchen was stunned for a moment, and weeping instantly appeared on his face, "My father lived an upright life, worthy of being a king and a relative of heaven and earth. My lord can still remember my father. Jingchen is very grateful. Please accept my worship."

Before Li Jingchen bowed to the ground, he was stopped by Jin Yiwei, "The captain's words are serious, I should not be the captain's salutation. Captain, please come in." Jin Yiwei turned sideways and asked Li Jingchen to go in. Li Jingchen walked forward and placed it on his side The hands on the side gradually tightened, and there was no admiration in Jin Yiwei's eyes. The words he said were instructed by someone to say that Jin Yiwei was the emperor's mouth, ears and nose. He told himself that he knew that his father was innocent, and what he said was useless. What Li Jingchen wanted was the fact that he could see and hear.

Suddenly stopped, Li Jingchen quickly took two steps back, turned around and rushed to the door, Wu Xingde hadn't come in because he wanted to control the carriage, so he greeted the Jin Yiwei just now, Li Jingchen pulled Wu Xingde aside, "Uncle Xingde, don't go in, go to Xishi with Liang Da to find Si Niang..." After giving orders, Li Jingchen entered the mansion.

Completely different from the orderly and orderly past, the Yangling Marquis Mansion at this moment is quite depressed. Although the flowers and plants are still lush and the carvings are still gorgeous, the air is vaguely chaotic, noisy and anxious, and the girls and women are whispering to each other. It's a rule, so what if you are reprimanded, the servants can't restrain themselves at all, once the Yangling Marquis Mansion falls, these servants are worthless, and it is inevitable that they will be sold off and displaced.

Li Jingchen almost trotted all the way to the Songtao Residence of the old lady. The Songtao Residence was full of people. The old lady sat at the head with a kind face, chanting scriptures with her eyes downcast, calm and calm, which formed a sharp contrast with the restlessness of the others. As if sensing Li Jingchen's arrival, when Li Jingchen stepped into the room, the old lady Wu opened her eyes, and a certain emotion flashed in her eyes for a moment, and it disappeared when Li Jingchen wanted to investigate carefully.

After Li Jingchen entered the room, he went straight to the old lady, saluted and greeted him, with a clean smile on his exquisite face, "The grandpa and grandson have been exposed to the sun for an hour today, and they are all dark. You won’t recognize your grandson.”

The old lady Wu also laughed, took Li Jingchen's arm and pressed Li Jingchen to sit down beside her, lovingly stroking his forehead, "Chen'er has been tanned a lot, but the black spots of a man's man It’s nothing, I still remember that your father was like this when he was a child, a child who was originally white and tender turned into a little black ball in the blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye you are so old, and your ancestors are also old."

Holding the old ancestor's arm, Li Jingchen shook his head and said, "The old ancestor is not old." This is the truth, the old lady Wu is well maintained, her skin is fair and tender, and her face is rosy, so she doesn't look old at all.

"Just tease me." The old lady Wu poked Li Jingchen's head, "Shen'er and Xiao Mo'er are both at your uncle's house, why don't you go there?"

"Uncle hasn't seen Shen'er and Xiao Mo'er for a long time, and wants to keep them for a few more days. Chen'er is getting older, of course it's better to go home, and accompany the old lady to relieve boredom, and my grandson is reluctant to part with the lotus soup made by sister Ziying, The ancestor must have had dinner, and the grandson is a little hungry."

Ziying knelt on the old lady's footsteps and beat the old lady's legs. After hearing what Li Jingchen said, she smiled gently and said softly: "The third young master likes the lotus soup made by the servant, and it was delivered from the kitchen two days later. If you have dried whitebait, the servant will make it for the third young master."

"Then I'm lucky."

There was a laughing sound below, which sounded extremely harsh in the eerie silence. Li Jingchen followed the sound, and it turned out to be Li Jingyan who was supposed to be playing in Zhuangzi outside Beijing. Only then did Li Jingchen notice that the atmosphere in the big room was worse than Songtao's pretend The calm is even more eerie.

Li Jingyan's hand held a petite and tender hand, and Li Jingchen looked up along that hand, and the shy Xia Shi fell into view, and Xia Shi's slightly bulging abdomen shocked Li Jingchen but also found it expected .

The author has something to say: As the host of the speech contest, I prepared yesterday. _(:3ゝ∠)_ I stood on the stage today and looked down. My eyes are still very nervous
