If it were possible, Dongfang Lian really wanted to laugh at Long Qijin and laugh at him as a fool. But no, that man is very shrewd. When dealing with him, you have to be careful every step of the way. Because maybe a careless move will fall into his trap.
A trap set.
"Lian'er, can you listen to my advice? Don't get too close to Long Qijin. If you don't have that kind of intention towards him..."
Ouyang Xiu was very worried.
Among the several princes, the fourth prince is the eldest, but also the least talented. In addition, the emperor directly rejected the fourth prince, so it can be said that the fourth prince has no chance of ascending the throne.
After seeing this clearly, the fourth prince Long Qilin is now trying his best to help Long Qijin build up his power, hoping that after his brother ascends the throne, he can also find a prince.
Now that Long Qijin has the help from the Taishi Mansion, the force behind Long Qilin and An Fei, there is a great possibility of ascending to the throne.
And Long Qijin is very scheming. People who don't know him might think that this prince is as approachable and doesn't put on airs as Long Qimu, but the personalities of Long Qijin and Long Qimu are absolutely different.
Although Long Qimu Wuzheng was a prince, he did not have much ambition for power. Perhaps Long Qimu's temperament was simply not suitable for living in that whirlpool.
Fortunately, Long Qimu was also smart and had already shown that he was not interested in the throne in order to protect himself.
Ouyang Xiu was not surprised at all that an ambitious Long Qijin would become interested in Dongfang Lian.
Dongfang Lian is a unique woman. The fact that she was recognized by Che Meng, a great Confucian at that time, caused Long Qijin to be determined to win her, which is enough to show her value to Long Qijin.
"Haha, Xiu... I understand what you mean." Dongfang Lian put a hand on Ouyang Xiu's shoulder and sat closer to him, "I'll tell you a secret..."
"What secret?"
"The secret is...huh...why I ended up falling out with Long Qijin...the secret is...ah, I'll tell you later."
Dongfang Lian is a person who doesn't get drunk easily. She was just a little tipsy and sobered up quickly.
He picked up a cup of strong tea on the table and drank it in one gulp to relieve the hangover. "Xiu, let's eat quickly. I have something to do in a while. I'm almost done drinking. Let's drink more next time. Next time
I will definitely drink to your heart's content with you, and you will never come home until you are drunk..."
"What do you have to do?"
I don’t know why Ouyang Xiu is very curious.
"Well, King Jing. Go and see him."
"You... know King Jing?"
Dongfang Lian always surprises him.
Prince Jing, who has been ill since birth, has basically no contact with anyone in the government or the public. Dongfang Lian rarely moved around Huangcheng before. She didn't leave the house very often. When did she meet Prince Jing?
"He's sick and I'm going to give him an injection."
"Do you know medical skills?"
Ouyang Xiu was surprised again. How many things did Dongfang Lian have that surprised and shocked him?
"Ah, do you want to go with me? Your relationship should be that of cousins? He is your cousin?"
"That's right. But I rarely interact with him. First, he is in poor health, rarely interacts with outsiders, and rarely enters the palace. It's always the emperor's aunt and the emperor's uncle who visit him.
"Secondly, he has a noble status. Even if ordinary people want to see him, it is impossible to see him. He is a person who has been crowned king since birth. Even the current princes will not meet him, the younger generation and the emperor's eldest grandson.
, they all have to be saluted. Because he has the throne, and none of their highnesses have been crowned kings..."
