Chapter 63 Langxie Wang Family
Three quarters before dawn on the second day
Li Chengqian looked at his son with some envy. Today was the imperial court meeting. In the past, Li Chengqian could have worn the bright yellow prince's clothes and went to court happily, but now he has no chance. According to Li Shimin's instructions According to the imperial edict, he will continue to study behind closed doors in the East Palace.
"Father, please don't worry. You won't be here too long. I will find a way to get my grandfather to take back the imperial edict."
Li Xiang also knows very well, what is it like for a young man to be locked up here every day? Li Chengqian is not very old. If he is locked up for another two years, he may be hopeless.
"You can't mess around. Your foundation is not stable now. You must not bother your grandfather with my affairs. If it involves you, maybe we will stay here together. Now there is someone who can It’s okay to go out, I don’t know how many times better than before. If neither of us can go out, your second uncle and the others will have to find a way to kill us."
Li Chengqian quickly waved his hand. Although he wanted to leave the East Palace and go out for a walk, this was definitely not the time at this stage. His son's axes were good, but they were far from stable.
"Your Highness, Mr. Ma Tian, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, is here."
Li Xiang originally thought that he would see these people in the square of the main hall, but he did not expect that some people would actually arrive at the East Palace. Anyway, he would see these people sooner or later.
"What did you do last night?"
As soon as Li Chengqian heard this person's name, he knew that this person came from the fifth surname Qiwang. Although his surname was not among them, the fifth surname Qiwang rarely let his direct descendants become officials. Even if he sent someone in, Those are also the descendants of the collateral lineage. What they are best at is marrying their daughters and then pushing their son-in-law to the court. Even if something happens, it is the son-in-law who dies, and it has nothing to do with their core descendants.
This Lord Ma married the daughter of the Langye Wang family. He had no contact with the East Palace in the past. Even though a large number of people came to give gifts a few days ago, this Lord Ma did not show any sign. What is going on today? ? Does the sun rise from the west?
"I was sleeping in my yard last night. What can I do? It's getting late. Father, please have breakfast. My son has gone to court first. I will talk to his father when he comes back."
Li Xiang put on an innocent face. Li Chengqian couldn't get out at the moment. Telling him would only increase his worries. He might as well carry it himself.
"Let me tell you, you must not come here to fool around. The Five Surnames and Qiwang are not a joke. This kind of big family that has been passed down for hundreds of years has a secret strength that you can't imagine. Don't..."
Li Chengqian wanted to say something more, but Li Xiang had already turned around and left.
Li Xiang also hates this kind of dirty approach, but sometimes you have to use it. If all the courtiers are involved, then no matter how protective the emperor is, he must give everyone an explanation. Li Xiang has already done this before After handing over a million dollars, he didn't want to continue to bleed.
"Your Highness, my Highness..."
When Mr. Ma saw Li Xiang, he was about to shed tears. Last night, while he was having dinner at the main house of the Ma family, the servants below suddenly came to report that a group of thieves suddenly came to the Huang family in the outer room. Huang and Master Ma's only son has disappeared.
At that time, Mr. Ma was panicked. He had one main wife and five mistresses, and they gave him a house full of daughters. Only one illegitimate child was born outside. If something happened to this, he would probably be extinct in the future. That was also true. It's because he married the daughter of the Langye Wang family. Even if his wife outside had a son, he wouldn't dare to take him home. He has always been very safe. After all, he didn't work as a minister for nothing, but he didn't expect that he would be here. This is when something went wrong.
"Master Ma, please be more solemn. I know something happened at your house, so you should go to the Chang'an County Government Office instead of me, right?"
Mr. Ma cried and talked about what happened last night. Who knew that Li Xiang pushed six, two and five? This matter has nothing to do with me.
"My Highness, I beg you, I only have this one son. If something happens, I won't be able to survive. There are many broken weapons in the yard, and the guards over there are The swords used in the courtyard are also the best in a hundred. Except for His Highness’ men who have such swords, no one else has this thing in their hands. If Your Highness has anything to say, please give your orders directly and I will definitely do it.”
When it comes to his only son, Mr. Ma is usually calm, but now he is panicking.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Ma? Are you suspecting that I am a thief?"
Li Xiang said with some dissatisfaction. Mr. Ma next to him was heartbroken. Mr. Huang and his son are in their hands. If something happens, you won't have anywhere to cry.
"I'm so clumsy, please forgive me for being clumsy. I understand that I will definitely keep my mouth shut and won't say anything when I go to court this morning."
Mr. Ma suddenly realized that he couldn't just talk empty words. Our Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the Emperor, is different from other people. If you don't say something real, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get along.
"How can that be done? The imperial court is a place where people can speak freely. If the emperor has something to ask you, you will receive your monthly salary from the imperial court and not say anything at all?"
Li Xiang stopped in his tracks and looked at Mr. Ma with a smile on his face. Do you think you can get through without saying anything? Nothing in the world is that good.
Master Ma has a bitter look on his face. On one side is His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson, who has his wife and children, and on the other side is the Langye Wang family who has cultivated him for many years. He can be impartial, which is already a betrayal of the Langye Wang family, but if If we fall this way again, something will happen...
For a moment, Mr. Ma didn’t know how to choose...
"You are a man who spits and tucks. You have to make your own decisions when doing things. How can you be restrained by a woman? Mr. Ma has reached your current position. Even if other people want to send you higher, I think they I don’t have the ability, so I have to adopt a new method. I can’t even take my own son home. How are my days? I heard that Master Ma’s mother lives elsewhere in the city. Master Ma really loves Ma. Madam!"
Li Xiang patted Mr. Ma on the shoulder. The road has been pointed out to you, and the nail has been hammered into your heart. You have to know what to do later...
