Lonely non-good minister

Song Yuan looked at him and smiled, and went back to the house. The steward immediately arranged for someone to send the things to her yard for registration and put them away one by one.

East Palace.

Knowing that Song Yuan had accepted the decree, the prince was silent for a long time, Song Zheng and the three waited without saying a word, with different thoughts.

"The governor of Liangzhou, the emperor really relies on Song Yuan." The crown prince sighed a long time, and laughed at himself: "I'm afraid the courtiers don't know how much he values ​​this bastard son."

He couldn't help feeling a little sad that he was not as trustworthy as a yellow-haired kid.

Song Zheng was very angry: "Father, according to my son, there is really no need to do these devious things. Song Yuan is clearly playing tricks on us. Now that he has accepted the order, if we wait and see and let him go to the northwest, then it will be a shame." I can't control it at all."

He satirized Song Shi's previous suggestion in words, and Song Shi did not refute it. He had already said that these things would have variables. Emperor Taikang had made up his mind, so how could they easily calculate it?

The prince did not say a word, he had been disappointed with Emperor Taikang time and time again, and he knew very well that Song Yuan's appointment as an official meant that he would have no chance to stand up, and it was only a matter of time before he was deposed, but now, most of his wings were broken, and he still Being grounded in the Eastern Palace, it is really difficult to save herself.

"Father, you should continue to be disturbed by it." Song Zheng is really impatient, he wished to kill Song Yuan immediately, but his reason reminded him that killing Song Yuan would only cause trouble for Donggong.

The prince turned his head and gave him a cold look. He was very dissatisfied with Song Zheng's impulsiveness, but he also understood that it was a problem with his character, so he didn't blame him for it. He just looked away and sat down: "We have been suppressed again and again. If it continues to develop, there will be no chance of winning at all.”

They didn't speak. The current situation is indeed not good for the East Palace, but the Palace still doesn't have the slightest advantage, so neither side has an outstanding advantage.

"Retire first." The crown prince wanted to be alone for a while, and he was over fifty, and he still had to worry about being stripped of his status by his own father at any time. This kind of frustration made him very uncomfortable.

The door of the palace was closed, but the sound of footsteps approached. In the slightly dim light, Song Shi stood quietly. The crown prince slowly raised his head and looked at him. Knowing that he had something to say, he nodded to signal him but said It doesn't matter.

"My son thinks that what the second brother said is not unreasonable, and he should continue to be troubled by it. The emperor is old, and he wants to plan for King Zhongshan with so much effort. It is nothing more than seeing a sincere and passionate blood in Song Yuan. He I am betting that Song Yuan can fulfill his ambition that he has no time to display, if something happens to Song Yuan at this time, the energy to support the emperor will be lost."

The crown prince shook his head: "If something happened to Song Yuan, the East Palace must be suspected. Isn't this a self-inflicted trap?"

"Yeah, if something happened to Song Yuan, the East Palace will definitely be suspected. Everyone knows this truth. How could we not know it? How dare we do it?" Song Shi said in a low tone: "This is only the first floor. If we go up again What about the first floor? Self-directed and self-acted, let Donggong become the one who takes the blame, what will the emperor think?"

There was a flash of inspiration in the prince's mind, and Mao Sai suddenly realized. Looking at Song Shi, his thoughts gradually became clear.

Killing Song Yuan, Donggong is the most suspicious, so there is no need to investigate such an obvious thing, but how could Donggong do such an obvious thing?It was obvious that someone wanted to frame the East Palace. With the well-known conflict between King Zhongshan and Song Yuan, he was the most suspected person.

Abandoning his own son and wronging the East Palace, as long as it operates properly, the king of Zhongshan will be hard to argue with. Without Song Yuan, who can realize his ambitions for him, how long can Emperor Taikang's spirit last?How much good impression can Zhongshan King, who can abandon his parents and children, leave in his heart?

"Father, the emperor's longevity is not a good thing for you." Song Shi said tactfully.

The prince was silent, he really didn't want to take the road of killing his father and usurping the throne, but Emperor Taikang pressed on every step of the way, he couldn't sit still, if he lost, the king of Zhongshan would not let his children go, so he absolutely couldn't lose.

"Go and arrange it." He agreed with Song Shi's suggestion.

Song Shijing backed out, and when he came outside, seeing that Song Zheng hadn't left yet, he knew he was waiting for him on purpose.

"Second brother, let's talk while walking."

There are still some days before the cotton planting season, so Song Yuan deliberately waited in Jingzhao for a few days, and Zhongshan Wang was angry, so he had to do something to make it up, no matter whether Zhongshan Wang accepted it or not, at least her attitude was there. up.

During the period, Song Yuan sent someone to send a letter to An Zhou, asking if he would go to the northwest with him, and also sent a large bag of silver to An Zhoushi. Renting land and buying seeds requires money. She saved more than a dozen This year's pocket money is basically filled here, if it is not supported by the gold rewarded by Emperor Taikang of the Jockey Club the year before, she would have been poor a long time ago.

During the days of waiting patiently, the first person who came to the door was beyond Song Yuan's expectations, and it was the princess of Taiyuan who had a bad reputation.

As soon as the steward reported the matter, Wei Yan became furious, and quickly reminded Song Yuan: "Young master, be careful, this girl is such a fool, you must stay away from her later."

Song Yuan was also very apprehensive. The human skin lanterns she saw at the Taiyuan mansion gave her a lot of shadows, but everyone was at the door, so she couldn't see her.

He came out bravely, and as soon as he entered the bright hall in the front yard, Song Yuan's eyes lit up. Taiyuan was sitting on the main seat, with a towering cloud bun, and his head was full of pearls and emeralds that made people dizzy. The bright red palace dress embroidered with thread and jade beads was covered with a white fox fur cloud shoulder, and she was leaning lazily on the back of the chair.

Although she is not young, Taiyuan's beauty can make people look amazing again and again, and it is a pity that half of her face was burned by the fire.

The charcoal basin was placed in the center of the room, but the maids around Taiyuan each carried a lotus-shaped copper cup, filled with charcoal fire, and surrounded Taiyuan to resist the surrounding cold.

This posture was a bit too grand, Song Yuan stepped forward and cupped his fists: "It's such a cold day, why don't you order someone to tell you in advance when my aunt is here, so that my nephew can go to the door to greet me in person."

"Jiu Gongzi is now the same figure as Jiuqing, I dare not trust her." Taiyuan looked at her carefully.

The descendants of the Song family all had a good skin, and their martial atmosphere made them all heroic. Although there were also people as humble and refined as the Song Dynasty, it was boring to see too much. Only Song Yuan and Taiyuan treated her well. The impression is not bad, at least I haven't gotten tired of watching it yet.

Maybe it's because he's still young and hasn't picked up the nasty habits of stinky men.

Song Yuan smiled and sat down, Taiyuan didn't hold back: "I saw the things your father sent someone to give me, and I was very interested."

"It's good that Auntie is interested." Song Yuan looked at her with a smile: "Everyone knows that cotton is a good thing, but it can only be grown in the northwest of Great Wei. This is an excellent opportunity."

Taiyuan hooked her fingers, and the maid beside her put the box in Song Yuan's hand, "This is the emerald chalcedony bestowed by the emperor, it is hard to find another piece in the world, congratulations on your wedding in advance Rejoice."
