Chapter 118: Li Zhiye meets Wu Mei
Xuan Shijing felt that Wu Mei was a failure this time. Even if she was able to destroy all the unfavorable evidence in the palace, she still couldn't save him, because it happened that Li Chunfeng and His Majesty Li Er had told His Majesty Li Er that as long as he thought of "Tang Dynasty Three Generations, Wu Dynasty Li Xing" he would think of this talented man with the surname Wu, and naturally he would be prepared for her.
If he followed the serious historical trend, His Majesty Li Er would like Wu Mei very much in the future, but Wu Mei had never given birth to a child for His Majesty Li Er. No matter what history says, in Xuan Shijing's opinion, this was the result that His Majesty Li Er had doubts about Wu Mei after hearing Li Chunfeng's words.
And what Wu Mei did in the palace now is undoubtedly to make His Majesty Li Er settle for this suspicion.
What is a talented man in the harem trying to murder the prince behind his back?
"Did you hear the news about Princess Jinyang?" Xuan Shijing looked at Chang Le and asked.
"Oh, the secret guards around Princess Jinyang caught the person and sent them directly to the Majesty. In the future, His Highness the Princess did not take any action. The Marquis didn't have to worry. Master Li said that the martial arts talent is still too busy to take care of himself, so naturally he has no intention of plotting against His Highness the Princess. Master Li digs a divination and says it is a good omen, so that the Marquis can rest assured." Chang Le said.
Xuan Shijing nodded: "Well, since that's the case, I'll feel relieved in the palace. By the way, I'll tell Uncle Zhong the auspicious day calculated by Master Li and let Uncle Zhong inform him that the village is about to start construction, and the rest is the camp. Once the construction starts in the village, the soldiers in the camp will strengthen patrol the village and be careful. I don't want any accidents to occur when our village is building a large-scale project."
There are so many things to be built here in the village of Dongshan County. Xuan Shijing only told a few people around him that no one outside knew that Xuan Shijing had such a plan.
In the entire Dongshan County, Xuan Shijing and the merchants ate meat. As for those foreign merchants, a mouthful of soup was enough to satisfy them.
It is not far from Chang'an City, nor is it close. From the location, it is indeed a good place. There are some big towns around it, and it is not very far from some small cities.
Merchants and caravans from other places cannot enter Chang'an immediately after they arrive in Gyeonggi Province. After all, Chang'an City is the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty. Even ordinary people know the strict control. Therefore, Dongshan County can also be used as a transit station for those caravans. After settling down here and then set off for Chang'an for only half a day, which is convenient enough.
Therefore, there is no mistake in Dongshan County. In order to ensure that there is no mistake, Xuan Shijing pulled a few close people around him. The power behind these people is extraordinary. If outsiders want to make an idea, they must pass their level first.
It is not easy to take away the candy from others after tasting the sweetness.
"Don't worry, my subordinates think that the five senile soldiers in the palace are capable of being competent." Chang Le said.
He also knew that the Marquis was short of manpower at the Zhuangzi side, so he would stay by the Marquis' side to wait for the dispatch in the future. Therefore, he also repeatedly advised the five Hundred Chiefs among the soldiers of the mansion. After so long training, Chang Le knew their abilities clearly, so Chang Le was relieved to the five of them.
Finally, it was time for King Li Zhi of Jin to get married, but there was a little episode in the first two nights of Li Zhi’s wedding.
After Li Zhi learned that Wu Mei was confined by His Majesty Li Er in the palace, he hurried back to the palace from the King of Jin's mansion and secretly wanted to see Wu Mei.
Wu Mei couldn't hide it at this time, so she could only tell Li Zhi everything about it.
She knew that only Li Zhi could help her at this time. Anyway, everything she did was for Li Zhi. As long as she could drag Li Zhi into the water, she could at least save her life. As long as she survived, everything in the future could be planned slowly.
He can plant such a seed in Li Zhi's heart and slowly wait for the seed to take root and sprout. At that time, Li Zhi will definitely need his own.
Wu Mei knew in her heart that Li Zhi had a friendship with her. If this friendship was false, then there was no need for Li Zhi to be so close to him at risk of disrespect and disagreement. He was his father's concubine.
Before the wedding, he was asked to be present as the King of Jin, so he lived in the King of Jin's Mansion for convenience. However, the palace in his palace was still empty, and he could still move in before the wedding.
On the night he entered the palace, Li Zhi threw away his close eunuch and came to Wu Mei's bedroom alone.
Because of being punished by His Majesty Li Er, and in the middle of the night, there were very few people around Wu Mei's bedroom. Several talented concubines who originally lived here with her begged Empress Changsun to move elsewhere, and no one wanted to deal with her again.
He is calculating the prince behind his back. This is a serious crime. If he is implicated, he will die if he is accidentally injured.
The quiet surrounding environment also makes Li Zhi convenient.
There was only a little palace maid left by Wu Mei to serve him. Because Li Zhi had made a secret agreement with Wu Mei during the day, even the little palace maid was sent away by Wu Mei's excuses. At this time, she would never let others know about her meeting with Li Zhi.
"Sister Wu, are you here?" Li Zhi quietly hid in front of the window and asked in a low voice.
Only the rustling sound of clothes in the room was heard, and then Li Zhi heard that the door seemed to be opened.
Originally, Wu Mei wanted to take Li Zhi to the secret place next to her to talk, but when Li Zhi heard the door open, she flashed and entered Wu Mei's room.
The candle was not lit in the hall, and the only light was the candle in Wu Mei's hand.
"Why did Your Highness come in?" Wu Mei frowned, but her heart kept pounding.
It was late at night that people were alone and widowed and widowed in the same room. If someone outside found out... I was really out of the way.
"Don't worry, Sister Wu, when I came, no one noticed that he didn't even bring a close eunuch." Li Zhi said: "The day after tomorrow is Zhinu's wedding day. These days, Zhinu wants to come to see Sister Wu, but Sister Wu has always avoided him, but Zhinu makes Sister Wu unhappy?"
Wu Mei sighed and shook her head: "No, how could Sister Wu be angry with Zhinu? Zhinu has been helping Sister Wu in the palace. It's too late for Sister Wu to be grateful to Zhinu."
"Why did Sister Wu avoid Zhinu before?" Li Zhi was also confused.
"Oh, it's a long story." Wu Mei held up the candlestick in her hand and walked inside.
