Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 143
The sweltering summer nights are disturbing.

At the Sixth Prince's Mansion on the West Street of the capital, singing and dancing were performed, and the melody was curled up.

The majestic house is decorated with gold and jade objects everywhere, such as the candlestick, which reveals a bit of luxury from the inside to the outside.

The sixth prince Ying Lian, dressed in an indigo narrow-sleeved woven dress with gold trim, sat at the head. He raised his brows and said with a loud smile, "Today, the Right Prime Minister was deprived of power by his father. It's really gratifying."

While talking, Ying Lian refilled himself with wine, "Come, come, let me respect the Zuo Xiang." He held up the wine cup and served it first, then said to Li Que with a smile, "Zuo Xiang It is really admirable for this hall to speak frankly and offer advice."

Compared to him drinking so happily, Li Que seemed calm, "Even if the sage cut off the power of the right minister, your Highness, you shouldn't be so happy with the wine." He paused, shook his head and said, "For now As a plan, we should quickly discuss the countermeasures for tomorrow's palace exam."

Ying Lian frowned, and put down the wine cup, "Our hall invites Prime Minister Zuo to come here, it's just to celebrate, how come it's just a chat over wine?"

He was displeased, and waved his hands to order the singing girls and luthiers to retreat.

This Zuo Xiang is now regarded as the most capable courtier under his command, with real power in his hands, and he is also very sincere.

The only thing wrong is that it is too rigid and rigorous.

Whenever there is something that is not pleasing to the eye, he has to admonish him directly, without giving himself any face.

Seeing Yinglian's face turned cold, Li Que felt even more depressed, so he picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it down in one gulp.

"Your Highness, now is the most critical moment to seize the throne. I hope you will spend more time on government affairs."

Yinglian was dissatisfied in her heart, but on the surface she had to be more or less complacent.

Responding with a smug smile, "It's natural, please rest assured, Prime Minister Zuo."

Now the court still has to rely on this old man, and when he ascends the throne, he must be the first to deal with him.

Pointing fingers everywhere is really annoying to watch.

"Your Highness, how did you prepare for the congratulatory gift at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet?" Li Que's brows slightly relaxed when he heard the muffled voices in his ears dissipate.

For the queen mother's birthday banquet, all the princes have to offer a gift.

This is the best chance to win Long En.

Hearing his question, Ying Lian showed a deep smile on his face, "There is no need for Prime Minister Zuo to worry about this matter, the palace has already made plans."

Li Que was shocked by his confident appearance.

In terms of strategy, the sixth prince is not the most outstanding, but if it is in terms of limelight
"Your Highness, you...you can't act recklessly." Li Que kindly reminded.

Again.

Ying Lian couldn't help pinching the wine cup with her fingers, her knuckles turned white slightly, "I don't believe Zuo can't belong to this hall?"

"No, no." Seeing his gloomy expression, Li Que hurried out of the table and bowed, "My minister must trust His Highness."

Seeing that the man above him is not half as talented as an emperor, but he is still willing to help him wholeheartedly.

Who let himself owe him a life
The road is bumpy and tortuous, if His Highness is willing to listen to his advice, there is still a three-point chance to fight, if he insists on going his own way.
Hey.

Li Que heaved a deep sigh in his heart, and his lips moved a few times before he changed the topic, "The little girl is now waiting to be married, I wonder if there is a good son who can marry under the Sixth Prince's family?"

When Yinglian heard this, her drowsy eyes lit up, and she couldn't help sitting up straighter.

He rubbed his chin, carefully revisiting the appearance of the lady from the Li family in his mind.

She is outstanding based on her looks alone, but her temperament is too stubborn.

If you marry into the mansion, I'm afraid you will be a master who doesn't understand the customs.

Thinking of this, Ying Lian let out the energy that he had just fought up just now.

He said casually, "The Sun family of Taipusi still has a son, and he is also at the age of marriage now."

He was not interested, so he picked up the wine cup to deal with it.

Li Que stood below and listened attentively, and when he heard the name of the grand servant Sun, his heart trembled, and he looked deeply at Yinglian.

Under the dim eyes, there was some disbelief.

Not to mention that the Sun family and his Li family are not in the right family, and the household is wrong.Let's just say that his son, who is not up to date, is not even a scholar now.
Even without marrying a wife, there are already too many concubines.

Wouldn't it be a joke for Qiong'er to marry her?

Li Que mistakenly thought that he had misheard, so he asked again in a deep voice, "Which family did His Highness just mention?"

"The Sun family, the Sun family of the Minister of the Imperial Palace." Ying Lian was impatient with his question, and placed the wine cup in her hand on the table.

He didn't think about being right, he just wanted to fool the old man quickly and don't bother him with this matter.

Li Que's beard trembled, and he took a long time to calm down after panting heavily, "I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back to the residence first to rest."

After all, he didn't wait for the consent of the superior, and walked straight out with his legs open.

The breath is disturbed and the mind is restless.

Did the sixth prince push his daughter into the fire pit?

Push and push, without knowing it.

The son of the Sun family is such a wimp, how could he marry his own daughter.

Li Que rushed out of the Sixth Prince's Mansion angrily, got into the carriage, and even threw the things placed on the chicken wing wooden table.

He blamed himself in his heart, why was he saved by such a bastard back then?

When Li Que walked away, Ying Lian's face was not much better, "Damn old man, he never takes this hall seriously." He fisted his hands and slammed on the table, "At the begging banquet, let me You witnessed with your own eyes how this hall seized Long En once."

If he didn't need the forces of the Li family to help him seize the heir, how could he tolerate him being so presumptuous.

If a person with a righteous heart is helped by an irrelevant person, what he thinks in his heart must be to throw me a peach and repay him with Qiongyao.

But Yinglian is not, he is self-willed and arbitrary.

He didn't take the harsh words of remonstrance to heart.But if he was flattered by someone, he would be self righteous.

Such a character is not the talent of an emperor.

Not long after the sky darkened, there was no sound in Duke Lu's mansion.

Especially in the courtyard of the eldest son of the Lu family, the humming of cicadas can be heard even more quietly.

Not far away, Lu Siniang walked over with a food box in her hand.

She looked at the light in her brother's house, and with a chuckle, she stepped forward to knock on the door, "Brother, let me take a look at you."

As soon as the voice fell, the door opened suddenly.

Lu Zhiting's eye sockets turned blue, and he looked haggard, "Little sister, why are you here?"

His voice was weak, and he sat straight in the armchair beside the desk after opening the door.

There was also a pile of books spread out on the table.

On the pages of the book, there are annotations dotted with pen and ink.

Lu Ziyu walked into the room and put the food box on the table, "At this time, even if you blind your eyes, you won't be able to read a single word." She opened the food box, and there were several dishes inside Delicate side dishes, "Come, have something to eat."

She smiled and handed over the jade chopsticks.

Lu Zhiting took it, and glanced at her suspiciously, "Don't you know that my brother will have a palace exam tomorrow?"

"I know."

"Then you still come to bother me like this?"

Lu Ziyu shrank his neck involuntarily when he heard the raised tone in his ear, "I just brought some side dishes over because I knew you couldn't understand a single word in the book."

She jokingly stared at an inkstone on the table, where the ink was all dry.

Holding the jade chopsticks, Lu Zhiting lightly tapped his little sister's little hand, his expression was not as anxious as before, his brows stretched and he smiled, "You are the only one."

"Brother, hurry up and try it. After you're full, Si Niang still has something important to discuss with you."

　Big brother, small theater, I have a headache writing it. Ahhhhhhh
