Chapter 90
On the night when Gong Lingxuan left, Emperor Jingxuan sent someone to take Shiba secretly so that he could give Mu Chenglin an explanation. This is also the reason why he summoned Gong Lingxuan into the palace and asked him to take office immediately and go south to deal with the flood.
Emperor Jingxuan didn't know why Gong Lingxuan defended a maid so much, but he could see that he valued her very much.
This maid is not beautiful or even ugly. If you look at her appearance, she will not be a man who can attract the eyes of men. However, the prince is valued by her. Emperor Jingxuan is puzzled.
Moreover, if the Eighteen is suddenly dealt with, it is not a good idea. I have to think of an excuse and deal with her with justification.
On that day, Shiba made evening soup for Lin Weiwan. After serving her meal, she went to her residence. However, as soon as the man came out of Lin Weiwan, a maid came hurriedly with an eunuch.
Shiba looked at the two people approaching and asked with a smile, "Sister is coming in a hurry, but is there something urgent?"
She glanced at the room and said in a discussion tone, "The Crown Princess has been feeling unwell for nearly two days. She just took two sips of soup and then went to bed. If my sister has nothing to do, would she wait until the Crown Princess wakes up?"
The maid shook her head, looked at the eunuch behind her, and said to Shiba, "We are not here to disturb the Crown Princess, this father-in-law is here to find you!"
Shibayi was shocked and looked at the eunuch.
"Yes!" the eunuch nodded, "It's getting hotter today, and the emperor has a very poor appetite. I heard that the girl is good at cooking. A few days ago, I was too comfortable and specially made soup for the prince and the princess to cool off the heat. The emperor invited the girl to the palace and taught the method of blocking the door to the imperial kitchen!"
Upon hearing this, Shiba immediately sneered in his heart. Most of the things that cool down are cold and cold. Lin Weiwan is now pregnant, so how can he be greedy for a moment and ignore the children in his stomach? What's more, the child is only three months old now.
After thinking about it, Shiba still followed the eunuch into the palace, but she didn't expect that at the entrance of the palace, the four young masters of Nanling all met.
The four of them were not as surprised as her. Gong Lingrui still smiled evilly and shook the fan in his hand to look at her. Gong Lingjun just glanced at her and then went straight to the palace gate. Shang Wen looked at Shiba, and the smile was meaningful. Shiba cursed in his heart. She dug Shang Wen at Shang Wen and turned her face to face Li Yuan's gaze when she turned her face away.
"I have seen the fourth prince, the little prince Rui, the little marquis, and the eldest prince!" Shiba respectfully saluted the four people, pursed his lips and smiled.
"Why, which young master is you interested in today?" Gong Lingrui asked Shiba with a smile, but his eyes were staring at Shangwen.
"The little prince is really good at joking. I am just a ugly girl and dare not think about it!" Shiba said with a dry smile.
Then, she did not give Gong Lingrui another chance to speak, so she reached out and leaned over, "Fourth Prince, the little prince, the little marquis, the eldest prince, the eldest prince, please!"
The eunuch who was with Shiba was so scared that he didn't dare to speak out. On weekdays, the four young masters of Nanling were in Xiangnan and Nanling. They saw one person as big as a bet on a gambling table. It was all based on luck. What kind of wind is this blowing today? He actually met the four men at the palace gatekeepers?
The eunuch wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the four of them tremblingly, and couldn't help but give Thousands of thumbs up to Shiba.
"It's too late, why are you going to the palace?" Gong Lingjun spoke coldly, staring at Shiba with his eagle eyes, not allowing her to lie.
Shibayi smiled, "I think the fourth prince knows!"
Gong Lingjun frowned. He knew that since the woman sold herself as a slave, he stared at her. How could he not know about the matters related to her?
But now that the disaster is imminent and even to death, she is still as calm as she talks and laughs as usual?
He didn't believe her and didn't know that Emperor Jingxuan announced her true purpose in entering the palace tonight.
Gong Lingjun felt very annoyed, annoyed her falsehood and meaninglessness, and even more annoyed that she was caught in evil and entered the palace in order to save her.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Shiba, then shook his sleeves and stepped into the palace gate. Shiba still smiled faintly, and smiled at the other three people, "Please, please!"
Emperor Jingxuan originally wanted to tamper with the soup made by Shiba, and then punish her for murdering the current emperor. It was justified, but when he saw the four people following Shiba, he frowned.
"I summon you into the palace and you won't come. Today's sun is coming out from the west?" Emperor Jingxuan glared at Gong Lingrui and said.
"Uncle Emperor should see from the mirror before the sun will come out from the west!" Gong Lingrui smiled and nestled into the chair, leaned back, and shook his feet.
Emperor Jingxuan glared at him and hummed with his nose, "Tell me, what's going on today? Get out of here after you finish speaking. I'll have a headache when I see you!"
Gong Lingrui smiled and said, "The so-called good things spread thousands of miles away. I smelled the fragrance of food in the palace outside the palace. I came here to have a meal!"
"Hmph, you are very smart!" Emperor Jingxuan stared at him and snorted coldly.
"Uncle Xie praised me!" Gong Lingrui raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Where are you two? You also smelled the fragrance of my imperial kitchen in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion and the Marquis of Zhen Yong's Mansion, and came to find out the taste?"
Emperor Jingxuan looked at Shang Wen and Li Yuan and said unhappy.
Although these young men in their early twenties were all outstanding. As the king of a country, he admired them. Even Gong Lingjun often sighed that if he had not crawled out of the queen's belly and responded to such an unfavorable hexagram, he felt that among his sons, he had the most kingly demeanor and the ability of an emperor.
Shang Wen and Li Yuan are ministers, and they will not be as scruple as Gong Lingrui. They are neither big nor small. They smiled and nodded. When they stood up, Shang Wen smiled and looked at Gong Lingrui and said, "I am not as good as the little prince Rui's five senses. I am following the little prince Rui."
Gong Lingrui paused his hands playing with tea bowls and looked back at Shangwen. Is this man looking for a place to be found for the matter he had planned in Yuhu?
He looked at Shangwen and smiled, and continued to play with the tea bowl in his hand.
"If I get the emperor to give me a banquet, I will have no regrets in this life!" Li Yuan bent over, with a humble attitude, but his words were not vague. I just came to eat and blocked Emperor Jingxuan tightly.
Hearing this, Gong Lingrui leaned back, looked at Li Yuan with a smile, and then looked at Shang Wen. "I haven't seen each other for three years, and the eldest son of the Zuo Prime Minister's family and the young Marquis of Li Yuan have become even more calm in front of the emperor's uncle. In the past three years, the two have gone out to practice, but what are the skins of their experience?"
"Xie Xiaowang Ye, I am still shameless compared to Xiaowang Ye!" Li Yuan replied with a smile.
Emperor Jingxuan laughed. There are only a handful of people who can take advantage of Gong Lingrui's verbal benefits. Li Yuan's words were very wonderful.
Gong Lingrui twitched the corner of his mouth, then smiled, "It's easy to say, it's so shameless, invincible in the world. It seems that this little prince has practiced well!"
Listening to Li Yuan's words, a person suddenly flashed into his mind - Shiba, the woman who said nothing of truth and had a single word of calculating, had often made him feel defeated in this way before.
Finally found the opportunity, Gong Lingrui said, "Uncle Emperor, when will this banquet be opened, I'm hungry!", and said, rubbing his abdomen.
"No hurry!" Emperor Jingxuan raised his hand and looked at Gong Lingjun with a cold look and a colder tone. "Where are you?"
With only two words, everyone was unhappy, only Gong Lingjun's expression remained unchanged, and he was still cold and alienated as usual. "My son's purpose is the same as Li Yuan's little marquis!"
He is always so neither humble nor arrogant, neither happy nor angry, neither anxious nor slow. He said in a word, and did not care about Emperor Jingxuan's mood or his expression.
This is not only the child he gave birth to was the woman who threatened Nanling Jiangshan that year, which made Emperor Jingxuan angry, but also made him hate him.
Although he was a father and son, and a monarch and minister, he always looked meaningless in front of him. Even when he wanted to abolish the queen in front of him, he gave the queen a piece of white silk for her to break it by herself. He also looked like he was not changing his expression on the top of the mountain.
"You are just right!" Emperor Jingxuan snorted coldly, regardless of the two foreign ministers Li Yuan and Shang Wen.
"This should be true between father and son. There is no need to pretend to be in front of the father!" Gong Lingjun nodded again and spoke coldly.
