Records of the King of Xin'an County

Since entering Beijing many years ago, Li Hui has experienced many times of overt and covert schemes by Princess Anxing, and she can't wait to make her disappear completely.Not only him, Princess Changning, the empress, even Cheng Qing and Liang Guogong's mansion, all wished to get rid of it as soon as possible.However, she is like a ghost, unwilling to disperse for a long time, and can always find a glimmer of life by any means to linger on.And once she was careless and underestimated her ability, she would stretch out her sharp minions and return a severe blow.

Now, Niwang sent people to test Cheng Qing, intending to use Cheng Consort to destroy the eldest princess Anxing, which is undoubtedly the best opportunity to get rid of her.They only need to contribute to the flames, and they can kill Princess Anxing without a single soldier.Moreover, it is impossible to say that she would reveal the identity of Ni Wang as revenge after she learned of Ni Wang's betrayal.After all, this man who was born with a temperament of vengeance must not allow the king of rebellion to continue to enjoy himself.

However, when a group of young people were thinking about how to "follow the trend" almost day and night, the sage suddenly issued an imperial decree to marry Li Hui, the king of Xin'an County, and Du Shi.The imperial decree not only praised how the two of them matched, but also made it clear that this was also in accordance with the late emperor's will, ordering them to choose an auspicious day to get married.

When Li Hui received the edict, he was a little dazed for a moment.He even almost forgot to deal with the envoy from the palace, always with a forced smile.Although he knew that this day would come sooner or later, and he thought he was fully prepared, but when he realized that he was about to marry Du Jialan, he still felt very uncomfortable, and even felt ashamed to face the one he loved. people.

Seeing the sad face of the youngest son, Yan couldn't help sighing: "You two are young men, why do you have to behave like such young children now? Since you have to marry, you have already made an agreement on how you will get along with each other in the future. , there is no room for regret. In any case, it is related to the Pu Palace and your future, so you must follow the order to make this marriage a perfect one."

Hearing this, Li Hui raised his head and said in a low voice: "Aniang, love affairs have nothing to do with men and women... The child just feels sorry for him..." Men also have lingering moments, and women also have moments of lovelessness when.Until just now, he suddenly realized that the feelings he gave and received were not equal.When talking about it carefully, he had to admit that Wang Zixian's love for him was deeper, and the harm he did to him was undoubtedly even greater.

Yan Shi was stunned, and said lightly: "When you were together, you should have expected today. It's just that you are all lucky and have been unwilling to think about it. Zi Xian has a strong heart, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it. This matter. Otherwise, it is very likely that this matter will create a gap between the two of you in the future. It is better to let it be for the time being."

"...Aniang is right." Li Hui nodded slightly, and the depression in his voice could not be concealed.

"Forget it." Yan Shi really felt sorry for his dejected appearance, and couldn't help but said, "I will take care of the preparations for the marriage. You just need to wait peacefully until the day comes, and marry Jia Lan into the house." I would like to remind a few more words, Li Tai and Li Xin who are far away in Luoyang should also return to Beijing, but seeing that the youngest son was quite distraught, they stopped talking and simply sent him out.

That night, Li Hui waited for a long time in the bedroom, but he never got the person he wanted to wait for.This is also the first time that Wang Zixian did not stay overnight in the Xin'an County Palace after he officially moved into the Palace.However, during the court meeting in the early morning of the next day, the relationship between the two seemed to be the same as in the past.When the night came again, Wang Zixian disappeared again.

For several consecutive nights, Wang Zixian not only did not stay in the county palace, but also never appeared in the secret room.Yes, Wang Buque did accept the fact that his partner was going to marry another wife, but it didn't mean that his emotions wouldn't be turbulent.In order to avoid another dispute between the two, and perhaps to calm his emotions, he chose to avoid seeing her for the time being.And Li Hui seemed to acquiesce in his behavior, and never sent anyone to urge him.

Princess Changning didn't seem to be surprised by this, but the Wang family sisters seemed to be aware of it.This incomparably subtle attitude between the two really makes people have to think a little more.The reason why they didn't think about it before was because they trusted their elder brother too much and they didn't want to guess the meaning of his behavior.But looking back now, I feel that there are other intentions implied all the time, which makes the emotions of the two sisters extraordinarily complicated and unspeakable.

In order to verify their suspicions, after the two sisters discussed for a while, one quietly asked He Cheng, and the other directly asked Yang Shen.The result was obviously not unexpected, on the contrary, it made them even more frustrated——

He Cheng asked in amazement: "When I was apprenticed to the teacher, the senior brother and the county king were already very close, and you two sisters never noticed it? Not to mention that you have lived together for several years, when everyone gathered in the secret room to discuss , How stupid are you all, that you can ignore the difference between them?" He always thought that this was already a tacit fact, but who knows that there are still people who are kept in the dark?And it's actually the two Wang family sisters?

"At that time, all the discussions were about serious and important matters. How could the county king and elder brother show any strangeness?" Wang Luoniang opened her eyes slightly, a little bit annoyed, "And we only care about keeping up with their thoughts, thinking What are the intentions of those arrangements and the news sent back? How can there be room to pay attention to other things? If it weren't for looking back now, something is really wrong...We...we..."

Yang Shen is more simple and straightforward: "The king of the county is the husband's partner, and the king wants me to treat him as himself. The king of the county will also teach me to behave in the world, just like another gentleman, very kind." Although he Smart, but after all, he is a child who was locked up and raised, and he is a little younger, and he is still very ignorant.It seems to him to be a matter of course for men to form partners with men, which does not surprise him and is difficult to accept.

Wang Xiangniang stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly said: "After the county king got married according to the order, what should brother do?" According to the relationship between the two people on weekdays, she had already thought of the countless entanglements that had happened. And the various injuries suffered by his brother.I have to say that the rich imagination of this young lady of the Wang family surprised me.Under all kinds of entanglements, she had no choice but to silently decide: No matter what her brother chooses in the end, she will support her brother with all her strength.

Not to mention how Wang Zixian would feel when he found out that the attitude of the two younger sisters was strange.His repeated absence from the secret talks has gradually caused some impact.

During another secret conversation, Cheng Qing looked around and saw that Prince Xian was not there, couldn't help complaining: "It took me a while to leave the mansion, but Zi Xian isn't there again? Xuan Qi, what's going on with you two? , why did you become moody all of a sudden? If it delays things because of this, let alone me, I think you will also regret it."

"My uncle is at ease. I will inform Zixian of the results of each secret meeting in time, and there will be no delay." Li Hui said flatly, "Next time, he will definitely be there."

Cheng Qing glanced at him suspiciously, and continued to explain his strategy.This strategy is full of loopholes for the time being, but I can vaguely feel the hope of success.As long as these loopholes are plugged, and the sage passes the clear road, the strategy will be considered.However, to perfect the strategy, everyone needs to continue to discuss, and at the same time, they must follow the trend.Sometimes, the perfect strategy is not as good as the right timing.

After Cheng Qing left, the Wang family sisters were quite restless.Wang Luoniang thought for a moment, and said in a low voice: "After each secret conversation, we will inform brother about the detailed process. Don't worry about the county king and your lord, everything is still under my brother's control, and he will deal with all kinds of problems almost every day. The news sent back. It should be that there is no important progress so far, so I never came here..."

"I'm not worried." Princess Changning smiled sweetly. "Recently, I'm looking forward to my elder brother's early marriage with sister Du. It is convenient to go out frequently. Brother, the two ceremonies of Nacai and Name Asking have already passed, when will Naji and Nazheng? When does the third mother plan to set the wedding ceremony? Years ago, after the year?"

"...Naji is just in the past few days, and Najib will be in half a month." Li Hui replied, "As for the personal welcome, Aniang hopes to bring the bride back to the mansion before the new year. I want to teach the county palace to celebrate the new year At that time, you can have the backbone to handle the internal affairs. Fu's mother is also getting old, so she should have a good rest."

For the aristocratic or royal families who pay more attention, it takes at least half a year, or even more than a year, to perform the six rituals.But this time, his marriage arrangements seemed a little urgent.However, he and Du Jialan are not too young, and after hearing Yan's idea, the sage and Queen Du agreed very much.

"It's wonderful." Princess Changning clapped her hands and smiled, and said to the sisters of the Wang family, "When the time comes, you two will move to my residence for a while, and I will invite Erniang An to come with you. At that time, we will It’s the unfettered and carefree days. If we live in separate residences for the time being, Wang Langjun should be more relaxed, right?”

There was a sense of ridicule in her words, and Li Hui could only laugh it off.The sisters of the Wang family were a little helpless—they didn't know what happened to the Prince Xin'an's marriage, and they had always been partial to their elder brother in their hearts, and felt aggrieved for him.However, now it sounds like there is a mystery hidden in this marriage?Forget it, since the elder brother has no intention of explaining to them, then they can just watch from the sidelines, and don't need to get involved, so as not to offend the elder brother.

The next night, the king of Xin'an rode alone to the new mansion where the Wang family moved.This mansion is located in the west of Pingkangfang. It is a place where many low-ranking family officials live together, and it is quite quiet.When they bought the mansion, they checked all the nearby colleagues carefully, and after confirming that there were no abnormalities and those who liked to spy, they decided to temporarily settle here.

The servants of the Wang family naturally recognized the great king, and immediately opened the gate to welcome him in.And he didn't need anyone to send a letter or lead the way, so he walked towards the main courtyard.I haven't been here for many days, and the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard still haven't changed, but a few stone piers in the corner used to practice arm strength were broken to the ground at some point, and no one cleaned them.

Li Hui stood there for a while, and found that even the wall had been scratched countless times with a horizontal knife. He sighed softly in his heart, turned around and stepped into the main room.

Prince Xianwen, who was sitting in front of the low desk and checking various news, looked at Shengwen, the two looked at each other silently for a long time, as if they could see through their unfinished words through their eyes.

"I've been waiting for you, thinking how long I'll have to wait before you come to see me."

"...Now, here I am."

Wang Zixian sighed, and said in a low voice, "Xuan Qi, come to me."

Li Hui raised his steps again, and when he knelt down, the person beside him suddenly suppressed him, pressed him down, and then leaned over and kissed his lips.The longing and uneasiness in my heart seems to be gradually dissipated only through the intertwining of lips and teeth.The rest is only mutual trust and unfathomable affection.
