"Leling, hasn't she come back yet?"
In the Yanying Hall of the Daming Palace, Yu Emperor Li Shunzheng, accompanied by Queen Xue, was flipping through the documents on the table and asked casually.
The eunuch in yellow on one side bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Princess Guanghua should be at Xiaolangjun Li Ang's house in Jinchengfang now, tutoring Princess Guanghua's friend, the maid in Li Xiaolangjun's house."
"Huh?"
When Emperor Yu heard this, he paused slightly in flipping through the documents. Li Ang knew that, but the maid of Li Ang's family...
Isn’t he a commoner?
Empress Xue said: "Is that the child named Chai? I heard Leling said that we are friends with her."
The eunuch in yellow named Yang Enchao said respectfully: "Yes. The maid's surname is Chai and her name is Cuiqiao. Some time ago, the instructor of the Academy just used the Zhiyu Yinxiu Pan to detect that she was born with twelve spiritual veins, and as a rule, she can be added.
Enter the preliminary examination list.
So Princess Guanghua is helping her with her homework these days."
"Twelve spiritual veins?"
Queen Xue raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise. She was not surprised by this number - after all, the Yu State had a population of 40 million, and rare geniuses with twelve or thirteen spiritual veins would appear every few years.
There are even records of those with fourteen or five spiritual veins.
But it happened at Li Ang's house, and the person involved was his maid. Isn't this probability a bit...
"What does this mean? Is Zhenzhou a land of outstanding people and rich in geniuses?"
Emperor Yu Li Shun laughed dumbly and shook his head.
Jun Qianzi, who is still absconding and forced Yu State to dispatch three Zhuxiao Realm monks to hunt him down, is also from Zhenzhou.
Hearing her husband's cold joke, Queen Xue rolled her eyes like a girl and turned to ask the eunuch Yang Enchao: "Is anyone in the palace gossiping about Leling?"
"This..."
Yang Enchao hesitated for a moment and said respectfully: "I heard there is."
Seeing the expression on Yang Enchao's face, Emperor Yu and Queen Xue looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.
As a young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Yang Enchao's loyalty is unquestionable. If the servants in the palace were gossiping, he would have secretly punished him long ago.
You can make him put on this expression and use the word "heard",
Obviously there is not just one person who gossips, but a group of people.
And its specific identity is not suitable to be revealed in the Yanying Hall - concubine, prince, princess, or all.
"..."
The corners of Queen Xue's mouth slightly lowered,
With the dignity of a princess, she makes friends with commoner women without official status, or even other people's maids who bring tea and water to the master, wash and cook,
If the news spread, it would be a disgrace to the royal family of Li Yu.
Do you want to save Tianjia’s face?
If it were other princesses, Queen Xue would have to teach her a lesson with the momentum of her mother-in-law.
But it happened to be the youngest daughter Li Leling (not an adopted daughter) who was frail and sick since childhood and was loved and doted on by the emperor and queen.
"Who dares to spread rumors in the palace again? Is it because life is too easy?"
Queen Xue narrowed her eyes slightly, and there was a hint of coldness in her tone.
"Okay, okay."
Emperor Yu gently patted the back of his wife's hand and comforted him: "Even if it doesn't spread inside the palace, it will spread outside the palace. We can't seal the mouths of so many people."
The best solution to maintain the dignity of the Li Yu royal family is to ban Li Leling and Chai Cuiqiao from interacting with each other, or to let Chai Cuiqiao enter the palace and hold the position of a female official. But like his wife, Emperor Yu did not want to see his daughter sad.
"But..."
Queen Xue's brows were still slightly furrowed, "What if in the future? Leling has grown up too."
"Later?"
Li Shun paused for a moment and immediately realized what his wife meant. Li Leling ran to Jinchengfang every day. Apart from Chai Cuiqiao, he probably fell in love with Li Ang, right?
Considering that she has been frail and sick since she was a child, she grew up in the inner courtyard of the palace and rarely stepped out of the palace.
It is normal for you to come into contact with peers in the academy, such as the young boy Mu Shaoai, and the young boy Mu Shaoai.
"Well..."
Li Shun frowned slightly. As Emperor Yu, he admired Li Ang very much - first he cured Yan Yundang and formulated an anti-malarial strategy, and then he took out midwifery forceps and allicin to solve difficult labor and bloody carbuncle diseases.
p>
No reward is too great.
As a father, Li Shun also felt that this son-in-law was a suitable candidate - Li Ang did not admire power, was talented, had a strong and self-reliant character, and had almost no shortcomings except for his love of making money.
Emperor Yu asked: "By the way, I heard that there is only one maid in the Jinchengfang house I rewarded Li Ang? Li Ang dotes on her very much?"
"Yes. There is news circulating that Li Xiaolangjun is the inventor of soap, soap, and absorbent cotton, and his original intention of inventing these things was to make the maid feel more relaxed."
Yang Enchao, the young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said respectfully: "In addition, it is also said that Mr. Li Xiaolang is good at business. He often buys calligraphy, paintings, ancient books, etc., and also buys many expensive gold and silver jewelry for his maids to wear. He is envious of his fellow ladies."
"Really?"
Queen Xue nodded. Being extravagant and making money are not disadvantages, but long-term love is an advantage. "Li Ang shouldn't be engaged yet, right?"
"Not heard yet."
Yang Enchao answered truthfully, as a young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, one of the most basic skills is to inquire about news inside and outside the palace, and to collect information about the people around the princes and princesses in order to respond to inquiries from the emperor and empress.
Queen Xue asked, "When he was admitted to the imperial examination, the Yan family did not arrange a marriage for him first? Where are the other nobles in Chang'an City?"
Li Ang cured Yan Yundang's anemia, and the two families had close contacts. Although Li Ang was admitted to the academy by his own strength and could not be called the "master of examinations", he should still be the first to get the upper hand.
That's right.
"It seems that the daughters of the Yan family are not of the same age. The marriage proposals from other nobles were also declined by Li Xiaolangjun."
"Yeah."
Empress Xue nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask about Li Ang's situation, his birth date, and public comments, which made Yang Enchao stutter a little and claimed that he would go back to investigate.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Yu smiled and shook his head. Concern caused chaos. Empress Xue, who usually commanded the harem and bullied the concubines and dared not breathe loudly, was now like an ordinary mother, caring and inquiring about the news about her prospective son-in-law.<
/p>
Pat.
A slight sound came from the drawer under the table. Emperor Yu frowned, opened the drawer, and took out a black envelope.
His expression instantly became serious, and Queen Xue also stopped talking to the chamberlain at the same time.
Swipe.
Emperor Yu opened the envelope, read the letter inside, and frowned tightly.
Queen Xue saw this and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"See for yourself."
Emperor Yu rubbed his brows and handed over the letter, "The secret spies lurking in the Turks sent back news that the Turkic Khanate has recently activated a spies in the Yu Kingdom, intending to steal the production technology of allicin."
