After sending the tsundere lolita to play with Duanwu and Yongning, when he walked into the greenhouse next door again, Chen Chong finally couldn't help but turned around and asked.
"How do I know what happened?" Li Yi glanced at him lightly, "How about I call the princess over again and you ask her in person?"
Chen Chong naturally did not dare to ask him face to face, and asked doubtfully: "Then what did His Highness just say about only having one child?"
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Maybe you are talking about giving birth to a child?"
Chen Chong glanced at him disdainfully, forgetting that he and the eldest princess were not clear about how old Princess Shouning was. If he remembered correctly, Princess Shouning was only fourteen years old now. According to Jingguo's current law,
Judging from this example, he is not yet an adult. No matter how favored His Majesty is to him, can he bear the charge of abducting the little princess?
After walking to the room and sitting down, Li Yi didn't say much. Although Chen Chong didn't look at him and he didn't like him, it wasn't good to leave him here alone. After a while, the third lady came out and saw him being beaten.
It won't feel good if I hang it here.
Chen Chong knew that Li Yi was quite dissatisfied with him, but he was under the roof at this time. Even if he was unhappy, he could only endure it for the sake of his third sister not to be sad.
However, there is a limit to people's patience. Even though this is a greenhouse, over time, the tea will get cold and it won't taste good.
Both of them were silent for a long time. Li Yi had already eaten all the cakes placed here. If he didn't even have tea, he really didn't know what to do at this moment.
"The tea is cold." Chen Chong finally couldn't help but remind him.
Li Yi glanced at him and said: "Herbal tea can clear away heat and relieve heat, and it also has the effect of reducing fire. Mr. Chen seems to be very angry, so you might as well drink more."
Chen Chong took a deep breath and said, "I have been feeling very comfortable recently and am not angry."
"Master Chen has pimples on his forehead. This is a sign of getting angry."
"I just slept late in the past two days."
"Not only that, Mr. Chen's eyes are red, and the corners of his mouth are eroded. These are all signs of anger. I wonder if Mr. Chen has always felt dry in the mouth and had insomnia and dreams in the past few days..."
Snapped!
Chen Chong slapped his hand on the table, his eyes were red, his breathing was rapid, and he said angrily: "I said it, if you don't, it means nothing!"
"Okay, if Mr. Chen says no, it means no..." Li Yi nodded repeatedly, and then waved to a maid standing at the door, "Go and get another pot of herbal tea for Mr. Chen."
Mr. Chen is really kind-hearted and treats him like a donkey liver and lungs. Judging from his facial features, it is clear that he is suffering from internal heat, but he still refuses to admit that herbal tea can clear away heat and reduce internal heat, which is good for the body. Although Li's herbal tea is not as good as Jiaduobao
It’s not Wong Lao Kat, but herbal tea and cold tea sound similar, and the effects shouldn’t be much different, right?
After all, the Li family is a wealthy family, and visitors are guests. As the head of the family, is he so stingy that he is reluctant to even offer a cup of hot tea?
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Master Chen is busy with official duties and is overworked. It is not surprising that he has these symptoms. It's just that although there are many official duties, his health is equally important. Master Chen still needs to pay more attention to..."
"It is indeed much busier than some people." Chen Chong glanced at Li Yi and said: "However, compared with other colleagues in the court, it is still a little worse... Zeng Shilang, the Minister of Household Affairs, has been working for the imperial court these days.
Running around and not being able to enter the house, that’s when you’re really busy..."
Li Yi nodded and said: "Unexpectedly, Shi Lang Zeng is usually lazy and tired. Now that he recognizes his true nature, he is really working hard. He is actually a role model for our generation..."
He changed his voice and said: "From what Mr. Chen said, there seems to be some complaints about this. I have long heard that Mr. Chen and Mr. Zeng have a close relationship. Could it be that Mr. Chen thinks that the imperial court is too harsh on Mr. Zeng?"
In fact, what he heard was not a close relationship. Some time ago, the romantic affair between Chen Chong and the Minister of Household Affairs Zeng Shichun that was circulated between the government and the public could not be described as "a close relationship."
Of course, even if it is true as rumored by the outside world, whether the two have a habit of cutting sleeves or Long Yang is good, that is still a private matter, and they, outsiders, have nothing to do with it.
"I don't have any complaints. It's just that a few days ago, Shilang Zeng and Marquis Li Xian were chatting in a teahouse. There were rumors that there seemed to be some discord between the two when they parted that day..." Chen Chong looked at Li Yi, wondering.
What was he thinking, he said: "Shilang Zeng is a pillar of the country who works hard without complaining. I hope that Marquis Li will not distinguish between public and private affairs..."
"What kind of rumors are these?" Li Yi shook his head and said: "How could I deliberately embarrass an important minister because of these trivial matters? Besides, how can I make the final decision on these matters at will..."
Li Yi took a sip of tea, but he was really confused.
Looking at Chen Chong, it was clear that Zeng Shichun did not reveal the conversation between the two of them that day. No wonder the King of Shu had been a little too quiet these days, and he was not used to the quietness.
I thought they could hold back even these things, and they would definitely be thunderous when they did, but now it seems that Zeng Shichun didn't tell them what happened that day at all...
Not normal, this is really not normal.
When Li Yi was thinking about these things, Chen Chong's eyes remained on his face.
He knew that Zeng Shichun had a brief conversation with Li Yi that day, but Zeng Shichun kept it secret and refused to disclose the specific words.
This made him even more confused.
Of course, in addition to doubts, there is also a hint of annoyance...or anger.
It was clear that some things had been said openly between the two of them. At least Chen Chong did not hide much about Zeng Shichun, but the conversation between him and the third person, Li Yi, was actually not allowed to be known to him...
Hateful, really hateful!
"Mr. Chen, what's wrong with you?" Li Yi asked in confusion as he looked at Chen Geishizhong, who suddenly had an angry look on his face and was obviously losing his temper.
"fine!"
Chen Chong glared at him fiercely and drank the herbal tea in his hand.
Li Yi didn't pay too much attention, but was surprised by Zeng Shichun's behavior. He concealed such a major incident and refused to report it. He was obviously an extremely unqualified teammate...
Although Zeng Shilang is not a good teammate, he is obviously a good opponent. I originally wanted to ask him in a subtle way if the Cui family has done anything recently, but Mr. Zeng has been working hard for the people these days and has never been seen.
I wonder if I can get any useful information from Chen Guishizhong.
Li Yi took off the teapot from the stove, added a cup of hot tea for him, and casually asked: "What is Mr. Chen busy with these days?"
Chen Chong held the tea cup to warm his hands and replied casually: "I'm not busy with anything. I'm just trying to find a way to transfer His Royal Highness the King of Shu back from Shuzhou. Jingzhao Yin Dong Wenyun will be transferred to Zhongshu in the near future. This position is very important.
, we need to fight for it; and Chu Daru, who is known as "Jingguo Literary Heart", returns to Beijing to give lectures, and the Chu family also has to contact and recruit..."
Li Yi literally spit out a mouthful of tea.
These two people who are extremely important to the King of Shu... Zeng Shichun did not report the knowledge, Chen Chong... Chen Chong casually leaked such important information to the enemy...
Look, look, who are the people recruited by the King of Shu and the Cui family...
Under such circumstances, if we still allow them to succeed, where is the law of heaven? Where is the law of heaven!
