Princess Changle was stunned for a moment, then she woke up as if from a dream, her face changed drastically, she hurriedly stretched out her hands and scratched on the table... She successfully scratched the handwriting into a water stain, making it impossible to distinguish.
"hehe……"
Princess Fangling sneered and raised her eyebrows lightly: "What is this? Pity my aunt? Because your aunt was rejected by that bastard when you came to your door, but now she is stalking you, so you don't want to embarrass your aunt?"
"
Princess Changle's pretty face turned red, and she looked extremely charming and charming. She hurriedly said, "No, no, aunt, don't think too much about it."
How could Princess Fangling let go of such an opportunity to gossip?
Pointing to the messy water stains on the desk, he asked, "Then what is written here?"
Princess Changle bit her lip, feeling shy and anxious, unable to speak...
"Look, you still don't admit it?"
Princess Fangling teased, then sat next to Princess Changle, put her arms around her sharp shoulders, and said softly: "My aunt has said many times that it is not easy for women. If you can meet a man who loves you, then don't
Hesitate, even if he is Gao Yang's consort... We, the Li and Tang royal family, have never been pedantic in following the so-called ethical principles. We only need to follow our heart. Besides, do you think those Confucian scholars who talk all day long also brag about ethical principles?
Is it so bright behind the scenes? Haha, no matter whether it is a family or a Confucian inheritance, there are many dirty things going on behind the scenes. Even Confucius said, 'Food and sex are the same'..."
Princess Changle lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, biting her lips, not knowing what to say.
admit?
That would definitely not work. If word spread, I would not be so thick-skinned to face Gao Yang, my father, and all my brothers and sisters.
deny?
But that bastard entered the house so grandly and wrote such a shameful poem. Now that Princess Fangling has seen it again, she can't explain it even if she wants to...
Seeing her hanging her head and saying nothing, Princess Fangling was so angry that she poked her forehead with her finger: "Tell me about your stubborn temper. Who will you let go of? You have to say something good or bad, okay?"
No matter how many grievances you suffered, you didn't say a word, just carried it silently by yourself. If you could have told all the grievances you suffered at the eldest grandson's house in the early years, why would you be like that later..."
"Okay!"
Princess Changle raised her head, looked at Princess Fangling, smiled slightly, and said, "Auntie, there's no need to say more, I can take care of myself."
Princess Fangling rolled her eyes in anger: "Elm head!"
In her opinion, why can't she strive for what she likes?
It’s not that she wants to compete with Gao Yang for favor and take Fang Jun as her own. It’s just a matter of mutual love. If she can’t even do this, what’s the point of being a princess?
Besides, Gao Yang has stated several times that he doesn't care if his sister gets a share of the pie. What else does Changle have to worry about?
Don’t let the wealth go to outsiders...
But she also knew Chang Le's temperament very well. This girl was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She seemed as gentle as water, but in fact she had a very upright intention and no one could influence her decision.
"It doesn't matter! You can take care of your own affairs. I'm too lazy to worry about it!"
Princess Fangling was choking and turned her head to one side.
A beautiful and delicate girl, as stubborn as a cow...
*****
Fang Jun came out of Shujing Palace in a wonderful mood. He couldn't help humming a song. He was led by two chamberlains in front of him and walked around several palaces to Chengtian Gate.
There is no wind today, the winter sun is bright, the sky looks exceptionally blue, and even the red walls and black tiles nearby seem clearer and brighter than usual...
After turning a corner, the two chamberlains stopped, bowed in unison, and said, "I've seen the steward."
Only then did Fang Jun see Wang De, the head chamberlain, coming towards him. He ignored the two chamberlains and bowed with a smile on his face: "I have seen Fang's consort."
Fang Jun secretly felt that something was wrong, so he stepped forward and helped Wang De up affectionately, with a smile on his face: "The manager is getting older, how dare you accept such a gift? Please get up quickly, but I don't know what the reason for the manager's purpose is to come here.
thing?"
Although the Taiji Palace is not comparable to the Forbidden City in later generations, the palaces are lined with buildings. It is extremely rare to meet each other. As the chief chamberlain, Wang De has to personally take care of everything around the emperor. Now he came to Shujing Palace.
, obviously came to look for him.
Sure enough, Wang De said with a smile: "Your Majesty is having a meal in the Shenlong Palace. He heard that the Prince Consort went to Shujing Palace to visit Her Royal Highness Princess Changle, so I ordered this old slave to come and send you a message."
These two sentences are rich in content.
The key point is "Your Majesty heard that the consort of the room went to Shujing Palace"...
Obviously, His Majesty Li Er was quite unhappy with Fang Jun going to Shujing Hall to pay homage to Princess Changle.
The scandal between the two people was widely rumored in the outside world, and even the nobles of the Manchu Dynasty were afraid of Fang Jun's revenge, so they did not dare to propose marriage to Princess Changle. As a result, Princess Changle had been divorced for a long time, but she still lived alone in Taiji Palace, unable to find her again.
Husband-in-law, we are married.
Now he is going to Princess Changle's chamber in a grand manner. If word spreads, what will the nobles outside who are taking advantage of the situation think?
Maybe they will think that His Majesty Li Er condones the affair between the two of them...
Fang Jun bowed and saluted, and said: "Thank you, the manager, for coming in person. I appreciate my kindness."
If it had been anyone else, Wang De would have only said "Your Majesty has summoned you", not even a single word more...
Wang De still nodded with a smile, accepted Fang Jun's gratitude, and said with a smile: "Then, please invite Fang Jun's consort."
"please."
Wang De walked in front of Fang Jun, turning slightly sideways, half a body ahead of Fang Jun. The two chamberlains from Shujing Palace turned back to their feet, while the two chamberlains Wang De brought with him were more than ten steps behind, walking with their heads lowered.
If the voice from the front was lower, the two of them wouldn't be able to hear it at all.
Obviously, these two people are Wang De's cronies...
"The Prince Consort has entered the palace, why not go and see His Highness Jinyang? A few days ago, His Highness even talked about the Prince Consort in front of the old slave, saying that the Prince Consort was becoming more and more distant from her in order to avoid suspicion..."
Wang De walked forward and spoke casually, his voice low.
But the meaning is obvious...
No matter what is said outside, whether there is an affair between you and Princess Changle, you have to "avoid suspicion". Even Princess Jinyang, who has been close to you since childhood, has understood the need to "avoid suspicion" as she grows older. Now you are openly
He ran to Princess Changle's bedroom to tell the outside world and what the emperor thought.
"In this palace, news spreads really fast."
Fang Jun's face was calm, without any trace of panic, he just sighed with emotion.
Wang De took a look at Fang Jun's calm expression. It seemed that this man had been prepared for a long time, but he just didn't understand why he would do this since he knew that His Majesty would be dissatisfied...
However, this obviously does not need to concern him.
He revealed the emperor's intention and made Fang Jun prepare for it. This favor was enough. He couldn't control the rest, and he didn't dare to.
Therefore, facing Fang Jun's words, he just chuckled and said meaningfully: "There is no airtight wall in this world. As long as you want to know anything, there are always many ways."
Fang Jun glanced at Wang De and was speechless.
Behind the scenes, Princess Changle's current situation in the palace does not seem to be as peaceful as it seems...
I just don’t know, as the emperor’s favorite eldest daughter, who dares to target her?
In a blink of an eye, we arrived in front of the Shenlong Palace.
Wang De went inside to report, and Fang Jun was waiting at the door. After a moment, Wang De came out of the palace and nodded to him: "Your Majesty has summoned me. Fang Jun, please come in and have an audience."
Fang Jun handed over his hand and said, "Thank you, manager."
Then, he took a step forward and entered the temple.
As soon as they entered the palace, they saw His Majesty Li Er sitting behind the desk with a solemn look on his face, staring at him.
Fang Jun stepped forward, bowed his hands to the ground, and said, "I have an audience with your Majesty. I don't know what your Majesty has ordered me to do."
His Majesty Li Er showed no emotion or anger on his face and asked slowly: "You just went to Shujing Hall?"
Fang Jun said: "Yes."
His Majesty Li Er stared at him and said, "What's the matter?"
Fang Jundao: "Before I went on this expedition, I was given an amulet by His Highness Changle. With God's blessing, I was able to survive unscathed among thousands of troops. So I was grateful. After returning to the court, I went to see His Highness to express my gratitude.
gratitude."
His Majesty Li Er suppressed his anger and said with a displeased expression: "You are a foreign minister. When you go to Changle's dormitory like this, don't you think about the reputation of Changle? Will it lead to false rumors from the outside world, causing those rumors to spread and humiliate the royal family?
prestige?"
Fang Jun quickly bowed his head: "Wei Chen is guilty..."
But deep down in my heart I disagree.
How can you, the Li Tang royal family, have any prestige in this regard?
Besides, we just want to spread the news about going to Shujing Palace to meet Princess Changle...
