Chapter 97
Murong Qing was extremely annoyed, and shouted to all the ministers in the morning: "This prince has been choosing a concubine for several days, and the real king has not yet died at that time."

Murong Ming actually cried: "Third brother, brother, I didn't blame you for choosing a concubine before, but I just feel that at this moment, you didn't stop this matter, it was unethical."

Concubine Zhang Shu was so angry that her face froze when she learned about this in Penglai Palace.On the contrary, the reaction was very fast, and he quickly sent He Qingzhen to send a message to the officials of Murong Qing's party in the early court.

"Your Majesty was entrusted by Mrs. Lu to help her natal nephew choose a suitable lady, not to choose a concubine for the third prince."

It's a pity that Murong Qing was furious just now, and he had already admitted in front of civil and military officials that he was choosing a prince and concubine for him.

Murong Yangxiao punished Murong Qing to apologize to Murong Ming and copied the "Diamond Sutra" ten times, which was considered to have blocked the mouths of the princeling officials.

Murong Qing went to Penglai Hall with a gloomy face.

"Mother and concubine, my marriage is postponed for one year."

Concubine Zhang Shu looked at her handsome and noble son with guilty eyes, "This time I was careless, but they took advantage of me."

Murong Qing shook his head, "I underestimated Murong Ming, to come up with such a plan to hit me, and to be ashamed to cry in the hall."

Concubine Zhang Shu said angrily: "He is also pretending to cry!"

Murong Qing sighed lightly, "I can't even pretend." He had lunch with Concubine Zhang Shu here, and then went back to the Prince's Mansion to copy the "Diamond Sutra".

An aide with a goatee walked in solemnly, and said in a low voice: "Third prince, my subordinates have sent someone to find out that before the early court today, someone ordered a group of beggars to stand guard on the only way the adults must go to the palace to spread folk songs. Slander you."

"Have you ever found out who is behind the scenes?" Murong Qingxin said: The prince has already betrayed his relatives, as long as he finds out his faults, he can be brought down and replaced.At the critical moment, who stabbed me in the back and ruined my reputation!
The staff member bowed his head and said, "According to the descriptions of those beggars, this person is probably the son of the East."

"It turned out to be him." In a rage, Murong Qing folded the writing brush in his hand into two, gritted his teeth and cursed: "What a double-faced, three-cut, sweet-bellied Dongfang Xuanyi!"

"The son of Dongfang has always been strict in his actions. He will never reveal his whereabouts, let alone go out for such a trivial matter." The staff hurriedly persuaded: "This subordinate thinks that he intends to let you know."

"What is he going to do!" Murong Qing slapped the table violently, his eyes were fierce, the veins on his forehead were bulging, like a beast that wanted to eat people.

"Calm your anger." The staff took a step back, waited for Murong Qing's expression to return to normal, and whispered a few words of persuasion.

Murong Qing sat down and waved his staff to get down.

He has known Ouyang Jinhua for a long time, and met him once. This woman has a good appearance, and is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not the candidate for the prince concubine he needs. At that time, with Ouyang Yue's official position, this woman was the best He wants to be his concubine more, but he wants to have a good reputation, and he wants the concubine's natal family to help him with all his strength, so he can't take concubines.

This time he asked Concubine Zhang Shu to summon Ouyang Jinhua, just to let Dongfang Xuanyi beg him for Ouyang Jinhua, and unconditionally assist him to bring down the prince.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Zhang Shu really fell in love with Ouyang Jinhua, made an exception to keep her for dinner, and even summoned the little county magistrate and magistrate to meet her, which completely angered Dongfang Xuanyi.

Not only did Dongfang Xuanyi not beg him, but he gave him a heavy blow, warning him that if he could bring down the prince, he could also bring him down.

The next day, the head of the Third Prince's Mansion sent Dongfang Xuanyi two antiques, ten thousand taels of banknotes, and two boxes of jewelry.

Dongfang Xuanyi accepted it but didn't say a word of thanks.

Murong Qing asked Dongfang Xuanyi for something, so he could only go to see him in person, invite him to a restaurant, and speak up, bluntly saying that it was a misunderstanding.

"My old man's life is aggrieved and affects his family. I'm different from him." Dongfang Xuanyi sneered and said, "Don't say that you don't even have the throne and are just a prince. Those who are narrow-minded, don't test the bottom line!"

When Murong Qing arrived at this time, he actually admired Dongfang Xuanyi's determination and ruthlessness, turning his hands into clouds and rain, and there was a lack of such talents around him, so he said slowly: "My prince promises not to be an example."

"Okay! You keep your promises." Dongfang Xuanyi also admired Murongqing's strategy ability to a certain extent. Even if Murongqing and Murong Yangli fight for the dragon chair in the future, he cannot deny Murongqing's talent and ability, and said with a smile: " When I marry Jinhua in the future, I must treat you to a glass of wedding wine."

Murong Qing laughed loudly, nodded and said, "I'm definitely going!"

The two drank some wine, and they felt a little heroic.

In addition, Zhang Shaofeng, the young nephew of Concubine Zhang Shufeng, received a letter from Mrs. Yu and returned to Zhang's residence from Huashan.

Zhang Shaofeng has been away from home for more than two years, and has never been back for the Chinese New Year. He travels around the Dahua Dynasty and writes poems in his free time.

Madam Yu saw that her youngest son had grown up compared to his memory, his appearance was even more handsome, and his demeanor was steady. With tears in her eyes, she said excitedly, "My son, you are finally home."

"Mother, I didn't leave Chang'an because I lost to Qin Huang in a bet." Zhang Shaofeng told the truth.

It turned out that he had personally witnessed Qin Huang and a few classmates from Chang'an Academy giving money to Murong Ming's cronies to buy exam questions.

He wanted to expose, but was threatened by Murong Ming's people. He was afraid of hurting his family and being killed, so he lost a bet with Qin Huang and left Chang'an to wander outside.

Only then did Madam Yu suddenly realize, and she scolded Murong Ming like hell.

Zhang Shaofeng blushed and said: "I have met Miss Ouyang before, and I have even heard her play the piano. She is an excellent woman."

Madam Yu stopped scolding Murong Ming, and did not hide the truth from her youngest son, she said, "Ouyang Jinhua has been seriously ill and has forgotten to play the piano."

Zhang Shaofeng was a little disappointed, but said after a while: "It's okay if you don't know how to play."

The mother and son went to see Mrs. Lu.

Zhang Shaofeng is not a kind person, but he has a face that looks like his grandfather who has passed away many years ago when he was a teenager. Mrs. Lu thought of her husband when she saw it, and she was very kind to him.

Mrs. Lu went to the palace to meet Concubine Zhang Shu and proposed to marry Ouyang Jinhua for her young grandson Zhang Shaofeng.

"It's good for Shaofeng to figure it out and go back to Chang'an." Concubine Zhang Shu also felt a little bit of pity for this youngest nephew, but she was dissatisfied that he was robbing his son for a woman. You must know that she was dating Ouyang who was chosen by more than a dozen young ladies. Jinhua.
