Chapter 631: Prince, I won't use it to greet you in the future
The Chengxiang Hall in the Imperial City once again reminded me of the sound of silk and bamboo!
His Majesty Li Yuan, who was sitting in the palace, was holding the dragon blood cup sent by his good daughter. While watching these beautiful ladies dancing in front of him, he turned his head and chatted with his good friend Pei Ji.
Talking about some topics between men.
"So, Pei Qing, are you sure that Feng Deyi is indeed ill?"
"It's not light yet!"
Pei Ji next to him also looked sad.
"In just ten days, he has lost a lot of weight and looks like he is out of shape... When the old minister read out the saint's commendation to him, even if there were two people supporting him, he was still there.
Out of breath."
"Then what did the imperial doctor say..."
Li Yuan asked with a curious look in his eyes.
"What kind of disease does Feng Deyi have?"
"have no idea!"
Pei Ji replied helplessly.
"One said that he was too thoughtful, another said that he was bound by the Seven Emotions, and another simply said that he was dying. The veteran who heard this was also confused and didn't know who to believe."
"By the way, Pei Qing..."
After hearing that Feng Deyi's condition was so strange, His Majesty Li Yuan pondered for a moment, touched his beard with his hand, and asked softly during the break of the music.
"Isn't it said that Sun Simiao is in the Qingdu Temple? Feng Deyi didn't go to see him. What if his illness can be cured?"
"The old minister also asked him this, but Feng Deyi said that he had been there..."
Pei Ji answered very honestly.
"But neither Qingwei nor Sun Simiao were at Qingdu Temple. He asked the Taoist priests at Qingdu Temple, and they told him that Qingwei and Sun Zhenren had already gone on a trip."
After hearing what Pei Ji said, His Majesty Li Yuan also asked with great interest.
"Going on a trip? No wonder I haven't seen Qingwei during this time, so where has he been?"
"Those Taoist priests told Feng Deyi..."
Pei Ji raised his hand and pointed toward the sky.
"It is said that Qingwei's flight has disappeared, and it can travel thousands of miles in an instant. They often travel to the East China Sea in the morning and stay in Cangwu in the evening. They even go out to sea when they feel like it, so they have no idea where they have gone!"
"Is flight extinct and traveling thousands of miles in an instant? This little guy Qingwei is really enviable..."
After hearing the words "I will travel to the East China Sea in the morning and stay in Cangwu in the evening", even His Majesty Li Yuan, who is as rich and noble as he is, couldn't help but feel a little envious and jealous. He touched his beard with his hand, rolled his eyes, and asked again.
"Pei Qing, I heard rumors, it seems that Feng Qing's illness is related to Qingwei?"
"The old minister also heard something about it..."
Pei Ji also nodded, then turned his head and whispered.
"It is said that when Qingwei was doing fortune-telling for Feng Deyi, he discovered that his position ended at Shangshu Youpushe, which meant that as soon as he sat in this position, he would be close to death. As a result, some time ago... the saint
You know it too!”
"It turns out that this really happens!"
After confirming this gossip rumor from his good friend's mouth, His Majesty Li Yuan felt very satisfied. He touched his beard with his hand and thought for a while.
"Pei Qing, you said that if Feng Deyi never becomes a right servant, wouldn't he be able to live forever and live forever?"
"this……"
Listening to His Majesty Li Yuan's imaginative words, Pei Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I don't know, veteran, but I think Feng Deyi is just a mortal. I'm afraid he still can't achieve immortality!"
"Pei Qing is right..."
After hearing Pei Ji's words, Li Yuan nodded and suppressed this wild idea, but then his mind jumped to another direction like a hyperlink.
"You said that this great man of mine is really... It is rare for a minister in the court to understand my wishes and be a little friendly to him, but he was directly sent to his death by his reward."
Although Feng Deyi's experience is sympathizing, His Majesty Li Yuan still couldn't help laughing when talking about this matter.
"Pei Qing, is it true that my great man is not destined to be an emperor?"
"..."
Pei Ji blinked silently, a little speechless.
His Majesty Li Yuan's stroke of genius really caught him off guard, leaving him completely at a loss as to how to answer.
It doesn’t seem good to say no, but it seems even worse to say yes!
Just when they were feeling a little embarrassed, they suddenly saw an attendant coming to the hall from the corridor and said loudly.
"Reporting to the saint, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come to say hello!"
"hehe!"
After hearing what the chamberlain said, His Majesty Li Yuan burst into laughter.
"Pei Qing, it seems that it is not good to talk about people behind their backs. You see, when I was about to criticize him, he appeared."
"..."
After hearing His Majesty Li Yuan's words, Pei Ji opened his mouth again, but still didn't know how to answer.
However, Li Yuan didn't seem to expect him to answer. After saying these teasing words, he immediately turned his head to the waiter aside, and then waved gently.
"Go and tell the prince that I am fine, and ask him not to greet me during this period of time, but to study well in the East Palace. Otherwise, I am worried that I will be like Feng Deyi and be asked about things by him even if I am fine!"
"yes!"
After hearing Li Yuan's words, the chamberlain immediately responded respectfully and then withdrew.
"..."
After seeing Li Yuan's move, Pei Ji silently closed his eyes, stroked his beard with his hand, and pretended to be listening to the music carefully, lest His Majesty Li Yuan would say another sentence to him, for example, "Pei Qing, what do you think about me?"
Does what you say make sense?' and so on.
…
"What did you say……"
Li Jiancheng, who was standing outside the Chengxiang Hall, was shocked and angry as he listened to the words conveyed by the chamberlain.
"Aye actually said that Gu would not go to greet him during this period because he was worried that he would be asked about something by Gu. He didn't believe it. How could Aye talk to Gu like that."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
The chamberlain replied respectfully.
"This is what the saint said exactly, and I dare not change a word."
"this……"
After hearing the words of the chamberlain, Li Jiancheng immediately felt that his face was a little uneasy. He gritted his teeth and finally suppressed the intention of leaving in a hurry.
Then, Li Jiancheng clasped his hands and saluted again with some reluctance in the Chengxiang Hall, then immediately turned around and left in a hurry.
After walking forward sullenly for a few minutes, Li Jiancheng seemed to still be able to see the eyes of the chambermaids Gong'e behind him who looked respectful but were actually disdainful, and could hear them speaking in disdainful tones in his ears.
"Young! Isn't this a memorial that directly killed His Highness the Crown Prince who firmly supported his Prime Minister Feng Deyi? Your Highness is safe!"
Teng!
For a moment, Li Jiancheng felt a fire rising in his heart, rising straight to the top of his head. He kicked him directly without even thinking about it.
"How dare you, such a lowly maid, tease me!"
The next moment, Li Jiancheng saw a small white hand grabbing the leg he kicked out and pulling it. Then he immediately stepped forward involuntarily and performed a cross on the spot.
"ah!"
A cry of pain brought Li Jiancheng back to reality, and then he found that in front of him was a woman in palace clothes, as beautiful as a peach and plum, with a pretty face and a frosty face.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
The woman looked at him coldly and spoke rudely.
"May I ask what I have done to arouse His Highness's disgust, so that His Highness beat and scolded me when they met?"
"Pei...Pei Jieyu!"
…
"Master Zhiyue, Master Zhiwei, Prince, please come in!"
"Namo Miaoguang Bodhisattva!"
After hearing the words of the guards of the East Palace, the old monk Zhiyue put his hands together habitually, chanted a Buddha's name, and nodded to several guards to express his gratitude as before. Then he walked into the East Palace with the monk Zhiwei behind him.
In the Jiade Hall.
As soon as they entered the door, the two of them saw Li Jiancheng sitting in the main seat with a thoughtful look on his face. They didn't know what he was thinking.
"Old man, Zhiyue, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"oh!"
After hearing Zhiyue's words, Li Jiancai seemed to have woken up from a dream. He stood up hurriedly, put on his "Corporal etiquette" expression, and spoke enthusiastically.
"Two masters, please sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Zhiyue and Zhiwei looked calm. Baoxiang nodded solemnly towards Li Jiancheng, and then calmly sat down at the seat designated by Li Jiancheng.
"His Royal Highness summoned someone today. I don't know what happened."
"Is such that……"
Li Jiancheng thought for a moment, and then said to Zhiyue and Zhiwei with a mysterious face.
"May I ask if these two masters have ever heard of Guifang?"
"Ghost side?"
Monk Zhiwei turned his rosary beads in his hand and answered calmly.
"The poor monk also read several books when he was young, so naturally he has heard about it."
"Then I dare to ask the master..."
After hearing what Monk Zhiwei said, Li Jiancheng suddenly showed an excited expression on his face.
"Is the leader of Guifang... Gu means that Guifang's ghost character is worth it. Those soldiers of Guifang are not afraid of death on the battlefield, and they can fight to the death even if they are hit by several swords.
So they were feared by the Yin people, so they called them ghosts. Is it true?"
"Huh!"
After hearing what Li Jiancheng said, Monk Zhiwei suddenly showed a surprised look on his face. Then he and Monk Zhiyue looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Your Highness is indeed very knowledgeable. Most secular people nowadays think that the origin of ghosts is because they have different appearances, such as blond hair and blue eyes. Even a poor monk occasionally saw this record in an ancient book of the Fahua Sect.
Yes, I didn’t expect His Highness to know about it.”
"It turns out that Master Zhiwei, you have also seen similar records..."
After hearing what Monk Zhiwei said, Li Jiancheng was suddenly surprised and happy.
"Master, have you seen in that ancient book whether the leader of Guifang has a sword called Shuangmian in his hand?"
"Because the poor monk didn't go specifically to check for ghosts that day, so his memory is very vague."
Monk Zhiwei had a thoughtful look on his face.
"There is indeed a sword in my impression, but I don't know what it's called... Your Highness! Did you summon the poor monk and Brother Zhiyue here just to ask about Guifang?"
"Ah! No... of course not!"
After Li Jiancheng hesitated for a moment, he did not talk about the so-called Frost Mourning Divine Sword, but changed the topic again.
"I invited the two masters here today because of Pei Jieyu's affairs. I remember that when we were in Renzhi Palace, Master Zhiwei, you once told me that you had found Pei Jieyu as an ally for me, right?"
"good!"
Monk Zhiwei nodded.
"Senior Brother Zhiyue discussed this matter in person. Why, doesn't His Highness believe it?"
"Lonely will not doubt the two masters..."
After hearing what Monk Zhiwei said, Li Jiancheng quickly waved his hands to deny it.
"It's just that when Gu met Pei Jieyu in Da Nei today, I felt that she was a bit unpretentious towards Gu, so I couldn't help but... Gu wondered if I had offended the other party unintentionally, so I wanted to ask the two masters for advice.
Wait. After all, we are all allies now, so it wouldn’t be good to have such an alienated relationship, right?”
Monk Zhiwei and Monk Zhiyue looked at each other at the same time, then clasped their hands together.
